We are lawyers licensed and qualified to practice law in the British Virgin Islands.

We have reviewed originals, copies or drafts of the following documents and have examined such other documents and considered such legal matters as we have deemed necessary for the purpose of rendering this legal opinion:

In giving this opinion we have assumed, without further verification, the completeness and accuracy of the Registered Agent’s Certificate and that the information contained in such certificates remains accurate as at the date of this opinion. We have also relied upon the following assumptions, which we have not independently verified:

| 2.5 | There is nothing under any law (other than the law of the British Virgin Islands) which would or might affect the opinions hereinafter appearing. Specifically, we have made no independent investigation of the laws of the [Peoples Republic of China or the United States of America].
