Dear Sirs

 

LEIZIG THERMAL MANAGEMENT CO., LTD (the Company)

 

We have acted as Cayman Islands counsel to the Company in connection with the Company’s registration statement on Form F-1, including all amendments or supplements thereto (the Registration Statement), as initially filed with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the Commission) under the United States Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the Act), on or about September 27, 2024. The Registration Statement relates to the initial public offering of up to $9,375,000 of ordinary shares, par value of US$0.001 each, of the Company (the Ordinary Shares), together with up to $1,406,250 of Ordinary Shares which Revere Securities LLC, the representative (the Representative) of the underwriters in the offering, has the option to purchase for a period of 45 days from the date of the final prospectus for the initial public offering solely to cover over-allotments, if any (such Ordinary Shares, collectively, the IPO Shares).

 

In addition, the Registration Statement also registers the resale by certain shareholders (the Selling Shareholders) of the Company of (the Resale) up to $9,375,000 of Ordinary Shares (the Resale Shares) as described in the Registration Statement.

 

The IPO Shares are being sold to the underwriter(s) named in, and pursuant to, the Registration Statement and an underwriting agreement to be entered into between the Company and the Representative.

 

We are furnishing this opinion as Exhibits 5.1 and 8.1 to the Registration Statement.

 

Unless a contrary intention appears, all capitalised terms used in this opinion have the respective meanings set forth in the Documents. A reference to a Schedule is a reference to a schedule to this opinion and the headings herein are for convenience only and do not affect the construction of this opinion.

4 Limitations and Qualifications
       
4.1 We offer no opinion:
       
  (a) as to any laws other than the laws of the Cayman Islands, and we have not, for the purposes of this opinion, made any investigation of the laws of any other jurisdiction, and we express no opinion as to the meaning, validity, or effect of references in the Documents to statutes, rules, regulations, codes or judicial authority of any jurisdiction other than the Cayman Islands; or
       
  (b) except to the extent that this opinion expressly provides otherwise, as to the commercial terms of, or the validity, enforceability or effect of the Registration Statement, the accuracy of representations, the fulfilment of warranties or conditions, the occurrence of events of default or terminating events or the existence of any conflicts or inconsistencies among the Registration Statement and any other agreements into which the Company may have entered or any other documents.
       
4.2 Under the Companies Act (Revised) (Companies Act) of the Cayman Islands annual returns in respect of the Company must be filed with the Registrar of Companies in the Cayman Islands, together with payment of annual filing fees.
