Exhibit 99.5

 

 

 

RAYTECH HOLDING LIMITED

 

Unit 609, 6/F, Nan Fung Commercial Centre

No.19 Lam Lok Street

Kowloon Bay, Hong Kong

 

Date: February 27, 2024

 

Re:Legal Opinion on Certain Hong Kong Legal Matters

 

Dear Sirs or Madams,

 

We are qualified lawyers of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region of the People’s Republic of China (“Hong Kong”) and as such are qualified to issue this opinion on the laws and regulations of Hong Kong effective as of the date hereof.

 

We were engaged (the “Engagement”) as Hong Kong counsel to RAYTECH HOLDING LIMITED (the “Company”), a company incorporated under the laws of the British Virgin Islands, and its subsidiary established in Hong Kong in connection with (a) the proposed initial public offering (the “Offering”) of up to 1,725,000 ordinary shares (the “Ordinary Shares”), par value US$0.00000625 per share, of the Company, by the Company as set forth in the Company’s registration statement on Form F-1 (File No. 333-275197), including all amendments or supplements thereto (the “Registration Statement”), filed by the Company with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission under the U.S. Securities Act of 1933 (as amended) in relation to the Offering, (b) the resale of 2,400,000 Ordinary Shares by certain existing shareholders of the Company pursuant to a resale prospectus contained in the Registration Statement, and (c) the Company’s proposed listing of the Ordinary Shares on the Nasdaq Capital Market.

 

A. Documents and assumptions

 

In rendering this opinion, we have carried out reviewed and examined copies of the Registration Statement, and other documents as we have considered necessary or advisable for the purpose of rendering this opinion (collectively, the “Documents”). Where certain facts were not independently established and verified by us, we have relied upon certificates or statements issued or made by, among others, appropriate representatives of the Company. In rendering this opinion, we have assumed without independent investigation that (the “Assumptions”):

 

(i)all signatures, seals and chops are genuine, each signature on behalf of a party thereto is that of a person duly authorized by such party to execute the same, all Documents submitted to us as originals are authentic, and all documents submitted to us as certified or photostatic copies or facsimile or electronic copies conform to the originals;

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

(ii)each of the parties to the Documents, (a) if a legal person or other entity, is duly organized and is validly existing in good standing under the laws of its jurisdiction of organization and/or incorporation; or (b) if an individual, has full capacity for civil conduct; each of them, has full power and authority to execute, deliver and perform its/her/his obligations under such documents to which it is a party in accordance with the laws of its jurisdiction of organization or incorporation or the laws that it/she/he is subject to;

 

(iii)the Documents remain in full force and effect on the date of this opinion and have not been revoked, amended or supplemented, and no amendments, revisions, supplements, modifications or other changes have been made, and no revocation or termination has occurred, with respect to any of such Documents after they were submitted to us for the purposes of this legal opinion;

 

(iv)the laws of jurisdictions other than Hong Kong which may be applicable to the execution, delivery, performance or enforcement of the Documents are complied with; and

 

(v)all requested Documents have been provided to us and all factual statements made to us by the Company in connection with this opinion are true, accurate, correct and complete.

 

B. Opinions

 

Subject to the Assumptions, Qualifications and limitations set forth herein and subject to any matters not disclosed to us, and having regard to such considerations of the laws of Hong Kong in force as at the date of this opinion as we consider relevant, we are of the opinion that:

 

(i)the description of Hong Kong laws and the legal matters relating to the Company’s business activities in Hong Kong with respect to the regulations set forth in the Registration Statement on the cover page and under the captions “Prospectus Summary”, “Risk Factors”, “Corporate History and Structure”, “Enforceability of Civil Liabilities”, “Business – Governmental Regulations”, “Regulations”, “Taxation – Hong Kong Profits Taxation” and “Legal Matters” in each case insofar as such statements purport to describe or summarize the Hong Kong laws and legal matters relating the Company’s business activities in Hong Kong with respect to the regulations, correctly and fairly summarizes and describes the matters referred to therein as at the date hereof, are true and accurate in all material respects, and fairly present and summarize in all material respects the Hong Kong legal matters stated therein as at the date hereof; and

 

(ii)nothing has been omitted from such description which would make the same misleading in any material aspect.

C. Qualifications

 

Our opinion expressed above is subject to the following qualifications (“Qualifications”):

 

(i)our opinion is limited to the laws of Hong Kong of general application on the date hereof. We have made no investigation of, and do not express or imply any views on, the laws of any jurisdiction other than Hong Kong. Without prejudice to the generality of the preceding sentences, our opinion is not intended to constitute, nor should it be construed as, advice regarding the securities laws or any other laws of the United States or any State thereof and we express no opinion as to the jurisdiction of any court of the United States or any State thereof;

 

(ii)the laws of Hong Kong referred to herein are laws and regulations publicly available and currently in force on the date hereof and there is no guarantee that any of such laws and regulations, or the interpretation or enforcement thereof, will not be changed, amended or revoked in the future with or without retrospective effect. Our opinion is given on the basis that we have no obligation to notify any addressee of this opinion of any change in Hong Kong laws or its application after the date of this opinion;

 

(iii)our opinion is subject to (a) applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, liquidation, fraudulent transfer, reorganization, moratorium or similar laws in the Hong Kong affecting creditors’ rights generally, and (b) possible judicial or administrative actions or any Hong Kong laws affecting creditors’ rights;

 

(iv)our opinion is subject to the effects of (a) certain legal or statutory principles affecting the enforceability of contractual rights generally under the concepts of public interest, social ethics, national security, good faith, fair dealing, and applicable statutes of limitation; (b) any circumstance in connection with formulation, execution or performance of any legal documents that would be deemed materially mistaken, clearly unconscionable, fraudulent, coercionary or concealing illegal intentions with a lawful form; (c) judicial discretion with respect to the availability of specific performance, injunctive relief, remedies or defences, or calculation of damages; and (d) the discretion of any competent Hong Kong legislative, administrative or judicial bodies in exercising their authority in Hong Kong;

 

(v)this opinion is issued based on our understanding of the laws of Hong Kong. For matters not explicitly provided under the laws of Hong Kong, the interpretation, implementation and application of the specific requirements under the laws of Hong Kong are subject to the final discretion of competent Hong Kong legislative, administrative and judicial authorities, and there can be no assurance that the government agencies will ultimately take a view that is not contrary to our opinion stated above;

 

(vi)we may rely, as to matters of fact (but not as to legal conclusions), to the extent we deem proper, on certificates and confirmations of responsible officers of the Company and public searches carried in Hong Kong;

 

(vii)as used in this opinion, the expression “to our best knowledge” or similar language with reference to matters of fact refers to the current actual knowledge of the solicitors of this firm who have worked on matters for the Company in connection with the Offering and the transactions contemplated thereunder. We have not undertaken any independent investigation to determine the existence or absence of any fact, and no inference as to our knowledge of the existence or absence of any fact should be drawn from our representation of the Company or the rendering of this opinion;

D. Observations

 

(i)On July 1, 1997, Hong Kong became the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region (the “HKSAR”) of the People’s Republic of China (the “PRC”). On April 4, 1990, the National People’s Congress (the “NPC”) of the PRC adopted the Basic Law of the HKSAR (the “Basic Law”). Under Article 8 of the Basic Law, the laws of Hong Kong in force at June 30, 1997 (that is, the common law, rules of equity, ordinances, subordinate legislation and customary law) shall be maintained, except for any that contravene the Basic Law and subject to any amendment by the legislature of the HKSAR. Under Article 160 of the Basic Law, the laws of Hong Kong in force at June 30, 1997 shall be adopted as laws of the HKSAR unless they are declared by the Standing Committee of the NPC (the “Standing Committee”) to be in contravention of the Basic Law and, if any laws are later discovered to be in contravention of the Basic Law, they shall be amended or cease to have force in accordance with the procedure prescribed by the Basic Law.

 

(ii)On February 23, 1997, the Standing Committee adopted a decision (the “Decision”) on the treatment of laws previously in force in Hong Kong. Under paragraph 1 of the Decision, the Standing Committee decided (as translated by us) that “the laws previously in force in Hong Kong, which include the common law, rules of equity, ordinances, subsidiary legislation and customary law, except for those which contravene the Basic Law, are to be adopted as the laws of the HKSAR”. Under paragraph 2 of the Decision, the Standing Committee decided that the ordinances and subsidiary legislation set out in Annex 1 to the Decision “which are in contravention of the Basic Law’ are not to be adopted as the laws of the HKSAR. One of the ordinances set out in that Annex is the Application of English Law” Ordinance (Chapter 88 of the Laws of Hong Kong) (the “English Law Ordinance”). The English Law Ordinance applied the common law and rules of equity of England to Hong Kong. We have assumed in giving this opinion that the effect of paragraph 2 of the Decision, insofar as it relates to the English Law Ordinance, is to repeal the English Law Ordinance prospectively and that the common law and rules of equity of England which applied in Hong Kong on June 30, 1997 continue to apply, subject to their subsequent independent development which will rest primarily with the courts of the HKSAR which are empowered by the Basic Law to refer to precedents of other common law jurisdictions when adjudicating cases.

 

This opinion is delivered solely for the purpose of and in connection with the Registration Statement publicly filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission on the date of this opinion and may not be used for any other purpose without our prior written consent.

 

We hereby consent to the use of this opinion in, and the filing hereof as an exhibit to, the Registration Statement, and to the reference to our name in such Registration Statement. In giving such consent, we do not thereby admit that we come within the category of persons whose consent is required under Section 7 of the U.S. Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the regulations promulgated thereunder.

 

Yours faithfully,

 

/s/ Han Kun Law Offices LLP
