Appendix C

Qualifications

1. We do not express any opinion on any provision of a Document governed by, or interpreted or construed in accordance with, any law other than Singapore law.

2. The term “perform” or “performance” as used in this opinion means that obligations assumed by the Company to the Documents to which it is a party are of a type which may be legally performed. We do not express any opinion as to the manner in which any of the obligations in the Documents are actually performed by the Company.

3. We express no opinion as to the provisions of any Document to the extent it purports to declare or impose a trust in respect of any payments or assets received by any person.

4. Any national or international economic sanctions or other similar measures that may be applicable, directly or indirectly, to any party to the Documents, may result in the obligations of that party or other parties to the Documents being unenforceable or void or otherwise affected.

5. We have made no investigation of, and therefore express or imply no opinion as to, the laws of any other territory or as to the application of Singapore or any other law by any other courts. To the extent that the laws of any jurisdiction other than Singapore may be relevant, we have made no independent investigation thereof and our opinion is subject to the effect of such laws.

6. We have not investigated or verified the accuracy or completeness of, nor do we express any opinion on the facts and information, including any statements of foreign law, or the reasonableness of any assumptions, statements of opinion or intention, contained in the Documents and the documents referred to in Appendix A of this opinion.

7. For the Searches, we have relied on electronic searches of publicly available records and the records disclosed by such searches may not be complete or up to date. The Searches are not conclusive about the status of the Company and any search conducted is at a fixed point of time and therefore will not reveal information filed with the relevant public registers immediately prior to, or after that date but not entered on the register. For instance, the Searches are not capable of revealing conclusively whether or not:

(a) a winding-up petition has been made or a resolution has been passed for the winding-up of a company; or

(b) a receiver, judicial manager, or provisional liquidator has been appointed,

since notice of these matters may not be filed with ACRA immediately and, when filed, may not be entered on the public database or recorded on the public microfiches of the relevant company immediately.

In addition, the Searches are not capable of revealing, prior to the making of the relevant order, whether or not a winding-up petition has been presented.

9. We have not considered the matters of fact relating to any party to the Documents or the Securities nor the effect of any such matters of fact on the Documents or the Securities or the effect of the transactions contemplated by the Documents or the Securities on any such matters of fact.
