Dear Sirs |
[…] 2011 |
Renren Inc. (the “Company”)
We have acted as legal counsel in the Cayman Islands to the Company in connection with the offer and sale by the Company of certain Class A ordinary shares of the Company in the form of American Depositary Shares (collectively, the “Shares”), as described in the prospectus contained in the Company’s registration statement on Form F-1 (the “Registration Statement”) to be filed by the Company under the United States Securities Act 1933 with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”).
For the purposes of this opinion we have examined and relied upon the documents listed, and in some cases defined, in the Schedule to this opinion (“Documents”) and all other relevant facts and circumstances impacting on Cayman Islands law. Unless otherwise defined herein, capitalised terms have the meanings assigned to them in the Registration Statement.
Assumptions
In stating our opinion we have assumed:
(a) | the authenticity, accuracy and completeness of all the Documents submitted to us and other documents examined by us as originals and the conformity to authentic original documents of all Documents submitted to us and other such documents examined by us as certified, conformed, notarised, faxed, scanned or photostatic copies; and |
Renren Inc
[…] 2011
(b) | that each of the Documents and other such documents which was received by us by electronic means is complete, intact and in conformity with the transmission as sent; and |
(c) | that there is no provision of the law of any jurisdiction, other than the Cayman Islands, which would have any implication in relation to the opinions expressed herein; |
Opinion
Based upon and subject to the foregoing and subject to the reservations set out below and to any matters not disclosed to us, other than matters which are of a public nature in the Cayman Islands, we are of the opinion that:
1. | The Cayman Islands currently levies no taxes on individuals or corporations based upon profits, income, gains or appreciation and there is no taxation in the nature of inheritance tax or estate duty. There are no other taxes likely to be material to the Company levied by the Government of the Cayman Islands except for stamp duties which may be applicable on instruments executed in, or brought within, the jurisdiction of the Cayman Islands. The Cayman Islands is not party to any double taxation treaties, save for a Double Taxation Arrangement with the United Kingdom which was signed on 16 June 2009 Effective in the Cayman Islands from 1 April 2011 for corporation tax, from 6 April 2011 for income tax and capital gains tax and from 15 December 2010 for other taxes. There are no exchange control regulations or currency restrictions in the Cayman Islands apart from standard anti-money laundering legislation. |
Reservations
We have the following reservations:
(a) | We express no opinion as to any law other than Cayman Islands law and none of the opinions expressed herein relates to compliance with or matters governed by the laws of any jurisdiction except the Cayman Islands. This opinion is limited to Cayman Islands law as applied by the Courts of the Cayman Islands at the date hereof. |

This opinion speaks as of its date and is strictly limited to the matters stated herein and we assume no obligation to review or update this opinion if applicable law or the existing facts or circumstances should change. We hereby consent to the filing of this opinion as an exhibit to the Registration Statement and to the use of this opinion (including discussion of this opinion) and reference to our firm name in the prospectus forming part of the Registration Statement under the caption “Taxation.”
Yours faithfully |
