(vi)the Company will receive consideration in money or money’s worth for each Warrant Share offered by the Company when issued at the agreed issue price in accordance with the terms of the Warrant;

 

(vii)that the Company has not, at the time of entry into the transactions contemplated by the Documents, (a) entered into or initiated any process for any arrangement or compromise (including scheme of arrangement or compromise), nor does it have any intention to propose any arrangement or compromise, (b) initiated any corporate voluntary arrangements or entered into any composition agreement with its creditors, (c) been declared unable to pay its debts and liabilities (including contingent and prospective liabilities) or is otherwise insolvent, (d) commenced or been the subject of any winding-up procedure whatsoever, (e) requested or been subject to the appointment of, or any application being made or resolution being passed for the appointment of, any receiver (including a receiver and manager), trustee, judicial manager, liquidator, sequestrator, administrative receiver, administrator or similar officer (including any interim or provisional officer), (f) been in a position where it is unable to pay its debts and liabilities (including contingent and prospective liabilities) or is otherwise insolvent or has become unable to pay its debts and liabilities (including contingent and prospective liabilities) or been in a position where its assets are less than its liabilities (including contingent and prospective liabilities) or is otherwise insolvent by reason or as a result of the entering into or completion of the transactions contemplated by the Documents, or (g) been subject to any event similar to any of the above under the laws of any jurisdiction;

(ix)the execution and delivery by each of the parties to the Documents (as applicable) and the performance of their respective obligations under the Documents, will not contravene any agreement or instrument binding upon them or their assets;

(x)the Warrant Shares shall be issued pursuant to the authority given to the Board of Directors of the Company pursuant to the Shareholders Resolutions and the number of Warrant Shares together with such number of other shares and Instruments (as defined in the Shareholders Resolutions) that may be issued pursuant to the Shareholders Resolutions do not exceed the limits set out in the Shareholders Resolutions; and

 

(xi)all preconditions to the obligations of the parties to the Warrant will be satisfied or duly waived prior to the issue of the Warrant Shares and there will be no breach of the terms of the Documents (as applicable).

 

4.Based upon and subject to the foregoing, and subject to the qualifications set forth below and any matters not disclosed to us, we are of the opinion that the Warrant Shares to be allotted and issued by the Company (i) upon the exercise of the right to purchase Warrant Shares represented by the Warrant against full payment of the Exercise Price (as defined in the Warrant) or delivery of the notice of Cashless Exercise (as defined in the Warrant), as applicable, to the Company and in each case in accordance with and in the manner contemplated by the Warrant, the Documents (as applicable) and the Constitution of the Company and (ii) upon the entry of the name of the registered owner thereof in the Branch Register of Members of the Company maintained in the United States of America confirming that such Warrant Shares have been issued and credited as fully paid, will be legally issued, fully-paid and non-assessable.

 

5.For the purposes of this opinion we have assumed that the term "non-assessable" in relation to the Warrant Shares to be issued means under Singapore law that holders of such Warrant Shares, having fully paid up all amounts due on such Warrant Shares as to the issue price thereon, are under no further personal liability to contribute to the assets or liabilities of the Company in their capacities purely as holders of such Warrant Shares.

 

6.This opinion is limited only to the laws of general application of the Republic of Singapore as published at the date hereof and as currently applied by the courts of the Republic of Singapore, and is given on the basis that it will be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the Republic of Singapore. We have made no inquiry or investigation of, and do not express or imply any views on, the laws of any country other than the Republic of Singapore. In respect of the Documents, we have assumed due compliance with all matters concerning the laws of all other jurisdictions other than the Republic of Singapore and that there are no provisions in the laws (including public policy) of any jurisdiction outside the Republic of Singapore which would have any implication for the opinions we express. This opinion is also given on the basis that we undertake no responsibility to notify any addressee of this opinion of any change in the laws of the Republic of Singapore after the date of this opinion.
