intervals and appropriate action is taken with respect to any differences; and (v) the interactive data in eXtensible Business Reporting Language included or incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement fairly presents the information called for in all material respects and is prepared in accordance with the Commission’s rules and guidelines applicable thereto.

(cc) The Company and each of its subsidiaries have filed all U.S. federal, U.S. state, local and foreign tax returns required to be filed through the date of this Agreement or have requested extensions thereof (except where the failure to file would not have a Material Adverse Effect) and have paid all taxes required to be paid thereon (except for cases in which the failure to file or pay would not have a Material Adverse Effect, or except as currently being contested in good faith and for which reserves required by U.S. GAAP have been created in the financial statements of the Company), and no tax deficiency has been determined adversely to the Company or any of its subsidiaries which has had (nor does the Company nor any of its subsidiaries have any notice or knowledge of any asserted or threatened tax deficiency which could reasonably be expected to be determined adversely to the Company or its subsidiaries and which could reasonably be expected to have) a Material Adverse Effect.

(dd) The Company is eligible to use Form F-3.

(ee) No subsidiary of the Company is currently prohibited, directly or indirectly, from paying any dividends to the Company, from making any other distribution on such subsidiary’s capital stock, from repaying to the Company any loans or advances to such subsidiary from the Company or from transferring any of such subsidiary’s property or assets to the Company or any other subsidiary of the Company, except as required under the Company’s $200.0 million senior unsecured revolving credit facility and as described in or contemplated by the Time of Sale Prospectus and the Prospectus. All dividends and other distributions declared and payable on the shares of capital stock of the Company may under the

All such dividends and other distributions are not subject to withholding or other taxes under the current laws and regulations of the British Virgin Islands and are otherwise free and clear of any other tax, withholding or deduction in, and without the necessity of obtaining any consents, approvals, authorizations, orders, licenses, registrations, clearances and qualifications of or with any court or governmental agency or body or any stock exchange authorities in, the British Virgin Islands.

(ff) Except as disclosed in the Time of Sale Prospectus, no stamp or other issuance or transfer taxes or duties, levies, deductions, or charges are payable by, or required to be withheld on behalf of, the Underwriters to the British Virgin Islands or any political subdivision or taxing authority thereof in connection with (1) the execution, delivery or performance of this Agreement or (2) the issuance, sale or delivery of the Shares to the Underwriters.

(gg) Neither the Company nor any of its subsidiaries nor any of its or their properties or assets has any immunity from the jurisdiction of any court or from any legal process (whether through service or notice, attachment prior to judgment, attachment in aid of execution or otherwise) under the laws of the British Virgin Islands. The irrevocable and unconditional waiver and agreement of the Company contained in Section 17 of this Agreement not to plead or claim any such immunity in any legal action, suit or proceeding based on this Agreement is valid and binding under the laws of the British Virgin Islands.

(hh) Based on current law and on the Company’s current operations and future projections, the Company does not believe it will be treated as a passive foreign investment company (“PFIC”) within the meaning of Section 1297 of the United States Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, for the current taxable year and does not expect to be treated as a PFIC for any subsequent taxable year. Although the Company intends to conduct its affairs in a manner to avoid being classified as a PFIC with respect to any taxable year, the Company can make no assurances that the nature of its operations will not change in the future.

(ii) The choice of the law of the State of New York as the governing law of this Agreement is a valid choice of law under the laws of the British Virgin Islands and will be honored by courts in the British Virgin Islands. The Company has the power to submit, and pursuant to Section 17 of this Agreement, has legally, validly, effectively and irrevocably submitted, to the personal jurisdiction of each New York State and United States Federal court sitting in The City of New York and has validly and irrevocably waived any objection to the laying of venue of any suit, action or proceeding brought in any such court.

(jj) The submission by the Company in Section 17 of this Agreement to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of the federal or state courts of the United States of America located in the City and County of New York, constitutes a valid and

legally binding obligation of the Company and service of process made in the manner set forth in this Agreement will be effective to confer valid personal jurisdiction over the Company for purposes of proceedings in such courts under the laws of the British Virgin Islands.

(kk) Any final judgment for a fixed sum of money rendered by a New York Court having jurisdiction under its own domestic laws in respect of any suit, action or proceeding against the Company based upon this Agreement would be recognized and enforced by British Virgin Islands courts, without re–examining the merits of the case under the common law doctrine of obligation; provided that (A) adequate service of process has been effected and the defendant has had a reasonable opportunity to be heard, (B) such judgments or the enforcement thereof are not contrary to the law, public policy, security or sovereignty of the British Virgin Islands, (C) such judgments were not obtained by fraudulent means and do not conflict with any other valid judgment in the same matter between the same parties, and (D) an action between the same parties in the same matter is not pending in any British Virgin Islands court at the time the lawsuit is instituted in the foreign court.

(ll) Upon execution and delivery, this Agreement will be in proper legal form under the laws of the British Virgin Islands for the enforcement hereof against the Company, except to the extent enforcement may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent transfer, reorganization, moratorium and similar laws of general applicability relating to or affecting creditors’ rights and general equity principles and, with respect to any indemnification or contribution provision, limited by the federal and state securities laws; and to ensure the legality, validity, enforceability, priority or admissibility in evidence of this Agreement it is not necessary that this Agreement or any other document related hereto be filed, registered or recorded with or executed or notarized before, any governmental or regulatory authority or agency of the British Virgin Islands.

(mm) It is not necessary under the laws of the British Virgin Islands that any Underwriter be licensed, qualified or entitled to carry on business in the British Virgin Islands to enable such Underwriter to enforce its respective rights under this Agreement or the performance of the terms and conditions of this Agreement outside of the British Virgin Islands. The Underwriters will not be deemed resident, domiciled, to be carrying on business or subject to taxation in the British Virgin Islands solely by reason of the issuance, acceptance, delivery, performance or enforcement of this Agreement.

(nn) The Company is in full compliance with all applicable British Virgin Islands securities rules and regulations, except to the extent failure to comply could not result in a material adverse effect on the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereunder or on the ability of the Company to perform its obligations under or in respect of this Agreement.

3. Agreements to Sell and Purchase. Each Selling Shareholder, severally and not jointly, hereby agrees to sell to the several Underwriters, and each Underwriter, upon the basis of the representations and warranties herein contained, but subject to the conditions hereinafter stated, agrees, severally and not jointly, to purchase from such Selling Shareholder at $59.9625 a share (the “Purchase Price”) the number of Firm Shares (subject to such adjustments to eliminate fractional shares as you may determine) that bears the same proportion to the number of Firm Shares to be sold by such Selling Shareholder as the number of Firm Shares set forth in Schedule II hereto opposite the name of such Underwriter bears to the total number of Firm Shares.

On the basis of the representations and warranties contained in this Agreement, and subject to its terms and conditions, the Selling Shareholders named in Schedule IV hereto agree to sell to the Underwriters, severally and not jointly, and the Underwriters shall have the right to purchase, severally and not jointly, up to 3,750,000 Additional Shares at the Purchase Price, provided, however, that the amount paid by the Underwriters for any Additional Shares shall be reduced by an amount per share equal to (i) any dividends declared by the Company and payable on the Firm Shares but not payable on such Additional Shares plus (ii) any withholding required by law. You may exercise this right on behalf of the Underwriters in whole or from time to time in part by giving written notice not later than 30 days after the date of this Agreement. Any exercise notice shall specify the number of Additional Shares to be purchased by the Underwriters and the date on which such shares are to be purchased. Each purchase date must be at least two business days after the written notice is given and may not be earlier than the Closing Date for the Firm Shares nor later than ten business days after the date of such notice. Additional Shares may be purchased as provided in Section 5 hereof solely for the purpose of covering sales of shares in excess of the number of the Firm Shares. On each day, if any, that Additional

Shares are to be purchased (an “Option Closing Date”), each Underwriter agrees, severally and not jointly, to purchase the number of Additional Shares (subject to such adjustments to eliminate fractional shares as you may determine) that bears the same proportion to the total number of Additional Shares to be purchased on such Option Closing Date as the number of Firm Shares set forth in Schedule II hereto opposite the name of such Underwriter bears to the total number of Firm Shares. On each Option Closing Date, the number of Additional Shares to be purchased from each Selling Shareholder by the Underwriters shall equal the number of Additional Shares to be purchased from the Selling Shareholders collectively multiplied by the fraction obtained by dividing the number of Additional Shares to be sold by such Selling Shareholder, as indicated on Schedule IV hereto, by the total number of Additional Shares, as indicated on Schedule IV hereto (subject to such adjustments to eliminate fractional shares as you may determine).

The Company and each Selling Shareholder hereby agrees that, without the prior written consent of the Representatives, it will not, during the period ending 90 days after the date of the Prospectus:

(2) enter into any swap or other arrangement that transfers to another, in whole or in part, any of the economic consequences of ownership of the Ordinary Shares, or

Each Selling Shareholder consents to the entry of stop transfer instructions with the Company’s transfer agent and registrar against the transfer of any Shares held by such Selling Shareholder except in compliance with the foregoing restrictions.

4. Terms of Public Offering. The Company and the Selling Shareholders are advised by you that the Underwriters propose to make a public offering of their respective portions of the Shares as soon after the Registration Statement and this Agreement have become effective as in your judgment is advisable. The Company and the Selling Shareholders are further advised by you that the Shares are to be offered to the public initially at $61.50 a share (the “Public Offering Price”) and to certain dealers selected by you at a price that represents a concession not in excess of $0.9225 a share under the Public Offering Price.

(d) In case any proceeding (including any governmental investigation) shall be instituted involving any person in respect of which indemnity may be sought pursuant to Section 11(a), 11(b) or 11(c), such person (the “indemnified party”) shall promptly notify the person against whom such indemnity may be sought (the “indemnifying party”) in writing and the indemnifying party, upon request of the indemnified party, shall retain counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party to represent the indemnified party and any others the indemnifying party may designate in such proceeding and shall pay the reasonably incurred fees and disbursements of such counsel related to such proceeding. In any such proceeding, any indemnified party shall have the right to retain its own counsel, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such indemnified party unless (i) the indemnifying party and the indemnified party shall have mutually agreed to the retention of such counsel or (ii) the named parties to any such proceeding (including any impleaded parties) include both the indemnifying party and the indemnified party and representation of both parties by the same counsel would be in the reasonable judgment of counsel inappropriate due to actual or potential differing interests between them. It is understood that the indemnifying party shall not, in respect of the legal expenses of any indemnified party in connection with any proceeding or related proceedings in the same jurisdiction, be liable for (i) the reasonably incurred fees and expenses of more than one separate firm (in addition to any local counsel) for all Underwriters and all persons, if any, who control any Underwriter within the meaning of either Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act or who are affiliates of any Underwriter within the meaning of Rule 405 under the Securities Act, (ii) the reasonably incurred fees and expenses of more than one separate firm (in addition to any local counsel) for the Company, its directors, its officers who sign the Registration Statement and each person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of either such Section and (iii) the reasonably incurred fees and expenses of more than one separate firm (in addition to any local counsel) for all Selling Shareholders and all persons, if any, who control any Selling Shareholder within the meaning of either such Section, and that all such fees and expenses shall be reimbursed as they are incurred. In the case of any such separate firm for the Underwriters and such control persons and affiliates of any Underwriters, such firm shall be designated in writing by the

Representatives. In the case of any such separate firm for the Company, and such directors, officers and control persons of the Company, such firm shall be designated in writing by the Company. In the case of any such separate firm for the Selling Shareholders and such control persons of any Selling Shareholders, such firm shall be designated in writing by the persons named as attorneys-in-fact for the Selling Shareholders under the Powers of Attorney. The indemnifying party shall not be liable for any settlement of any proceeding effected without its written consent, but if settled with such consent or if there be a final judgment for the plaintiff, the indemnifying party agrees to indemnify the indemnified party from and against any loss or liability by reason of such settlement or judgment. No indemnifying party shall, without the prior written consent of the indemnified party, effect any settlement of any pending or threatened proceeding in respect of which any indemnified party is or could have been a party and indemnity could have been sought hereunder by such indemnified party, unless such settlement includes an unconditional release of such indemnified party from all liability on claims that are the subject matter of such proceeding.

(e) To the extent the indemnification provided for in Section 11(a), 11(b) or 11(c) is unavailable to an indemnified party or insufficient in respect of any losses, claims, damages or liabilities referred to therein, then each indemnifying party under such paragraph, in lieu of indemnifying such indemnified party thereunder, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (i) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the indemnifying party or parties on the one hand and the indemnified party or parties on the other hand from the offering of the Shares or (ii) if the allocation provided by clause 11(e)(i) above is not permitted by applicable law, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits referred to in clause 11(e)(i) above but also the relative fault of the indemnifying party or parties on the one hand and of the indemnified party or parties on the other hand in connection with the statements or omissions that resulted in such losses, claims, damages or liabilities, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative benefits received by the Company and the Selling Shareholders on the one hand and the Underwriters on the other hand in connection with the offering of the Shares shall be deemed to be in the same respective proportions as the net proceeds from the offering of the Shares (before deducting expenses) received by the Company and each Selling Shareholder and the total underwriting discounts and commissions received by the Underwriters, in each case as set forth in the table on the cover of the Prospectus, bear to the aggregate Public Offering Price of the Shares. The relative fault of the Company or the Selling Shareholders on the one hand and the Underwriters on the other hand shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the Company or the Selling Shareholders or by the Underwriters and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission. The

Underwriters’ respective obligations to contribute pursuant to this Section 11(e) are several in proportion to the respective number of Shares they have purchased hereunder, and not joint. The liability of each Selling Shareholder under the contribution agreement contained in this paragraph shall be several and not joint and limited to an amount equal to the aggregate Public Offering Price of the Shares sold by such Selling Shareholder under this Agreement after deducting underwriting commissions (but before any taxes and expenses which may be payable by such Selling Shareholder).

(f) The Company and the Selling Shareholders and the Underwriters agree that it would not be just or equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 11 were determined by pro rata allocation (even if the Underwriters were treated as one entity for such purpose) or by any other method of allocation that does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to in Section 11(e). The amount paid or payable by an indemnified party as a result of the losses, claims, damages and liabilities referred to in Section 11(e) shall be deemed to include, subject to the limitations set forth above, any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in connection with investigating or defending any such action or claim. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 11, no Underwriter shall be required to contribute any amount in excess of the amount by which the total price at which the Shares underwritten by it and distributed to the public were offered to the public exceeds the amount of any damages that such Underwriter has otherwise been required to pay by reason of such untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. The remedies provided for in this Section 11 are not exclusive and shall not limit any rights or remedies which may otherwise be available to any indemnified party at law or in equity.

(g) The indemnity and contribution provisions contained in this Section 11 and the representations, warranties and other statements of the Company and the Selling Shareholders contained in this Agreement shall remain operative and in full force and effect regardless of (i) any termination of this Agreement, (ii) any investigation made by or on behalf of any Underwriter, any person controlling any Underwriter or any affiliate of any Underwriter, any Selling Shareholder or any person controlling any Selling Shareholder, or the Company, its officers or directors or any person controlling the Company and (iii) acceptance of and payment for any of the Shares.

12. Termination. The Underwriters may terminate this Agreement by notice given by you to the Company, if after the execution and delivery of this Agreement and prior to the Closing Date (i) trading generally shall have been suspended or materially limited on, or by, as the case may be, any of the New York Stock Exchange, the American Stock Exchange and the NASDAQ Global Market, (ii) trading of any securities of the Company shall have been suspended

on any exchange or in any over-the-counter market, (iii) a material disruption in securities settlement, payment or clearance services in the United States shall have occurred, (iv) any moratorium on commercial banking activities shall have been declared by Federal or New York State authorities or (v) there shall have occurred any outbreak or escalation of hostilities, or any change in financial markets or any calamity or crisis that, in your judgment, is material and adverse and which, singly or together with any other event specified in this clause (v), makes it, in your judgment, impracticable or inadvisable to proceed with the offer, sale or delivery of the Shares on the terms and in the manner contemplated in the Time of Sale Prospectus or the Prospectus.

13. Effectiveness; Defaulting Underwriters. This Agreement shall become effective upon the execution and delivery hereof by the parties hereto.

If, on the Closing Date or an Option Closing Date, as the case may be, any one or more of the Underwriters shall fail or refuse to purchase Shares that it has or they have agreed to purchase hereunder on such date, and the aggregate number of Shares which such defaulting Underwriter or Underwriters agreed but failed or refused to purchase is not more than one-tenth of the aggregate number of the Shares to be purchased on such date, the other Underwriters shall be obligated severally in the proportions that the number of Firm Shares set forth opposite their respective names in Schedule II bears to the aggregate number of Firm Shares set forth opposite the names of all such non-defaulting Underwriters, or in such other proportions as you may specify, to purchase the Shares which such defaulting Underwriter or Underwriters agreed but failed or refused to purchase on such date; provided that in no event shall the number of Shares that any Underwriter has agreed to purchase pursuant to this Agreement be increased pursuant to this Section 13 by an amount in excess of one-ninth of such number of Shares without the written consent of such Underwriter. If, on the Closing Date, any Underwriter or Underwriters shall fail or refuse to purchase Firm Shares and the aggregate number of Firm Shares with respect to which such default occurs is more than one-tenth of the aggregate number of Firm Shares to be purchased on such date, and arrangements reasonably satisfactory to you, the Company and the Selling Shareholders for the purchase of such Firm Shares are not made within 36 hours after such default, this Agreement shall terminate without liability on the part of any non-defaulting Underwriter, the Company or the Selling Shareholders. In any such case either you, the Company or the relevant Selling Shareholder shall have the right to postpone the Closing Date, but in no event for longer than seven days, in order that the required changes, if any, in the Registration Statement, in the Time of Sale Prospectus, in the Prospectus or in any other documents or arrangements may be effected. If, on an Option Closing Date, any Underwriter or Underwriters shall fail or refuse to purchase Additional Shares and the aggregate number of Additional Shares with respect to which such default occurs is more than one-tenth of the aggregate number of Additional Shares to be purchased on such Option Closing Date, the non-defaulting Underwriters shall have the option to (i) terminate their obligation hereunder to purchase the

Additional Shares to be sold on such Option Closing Date or (ii) purchase not less than the number of Additional Shares that such non-defaulting Underwriters would have been obligated to purchase in the absence of such default. Any action taken under this paragraph shall not relieve any defaulting Underwriter from liability in respect of any default of such Underwriter under this Agreement.

If this Agreement shall be terminated by the Underwriters, or any of them, other than pursuant to Section 12(i), (iii), (iv) or (v) or this Section 13, because of any failure or refusal on the part of the Company or any Selling Shareholder to comply with the terms or to fulfill any of the conditions of this Agreement, or if for any reason the Company or any Selling Shareholder shall be unable to perform its obligations under this Agreement, the Company and the Selling Shareholders will reimburse the Underwriters or such Underwriters as have so terminated this Agreement with respect to themselves, severally, for all out-of-pocket expenses (including the reasonably incurred and documented fees and disbursements of their counsel) reasonably incurred by such Underwriters in connection with this Agreement or the offering contemplated hereunder.

14. Entire Agreement. (a) This Agreement, together with any contemporaneous written agreements and any prior written agreements (to the extent not superseded by this Agreement) that relate to the offering of the Shares, represents the entire agreement between the Company and the Selling Shareholders, on the one hand, and the Underwriters, on the other, with respect to the preparation of any preliminary prospectus, the Time of Sale Prospectus, the Prospectus, the conduct of the offering, and the purchase and sale of the Shares.

(b) The Company acknowledges that in connection with the offering of the Shares: (i) the Underwriters have acted at arms length, are not agents of, and owe no fiduciary duties to, the Company or any other person, (ii) the Underwriters owe the Company only those duties and obligations set forth in this Agreement and prior written agreements (to the extent not superseded by this Agreement), if any, and (iii) the Underwriters may have interests that differ from those of the Company. The Company waives to the full extent permitted by applicable law any claims it may have against the Underwriters arising from an alleged breach of fiduciary duty in connection with the offering of the Shares.

15. Counterparts. This Agreement may be signed in two or more counterparts, each of which shall be an original, with the same effect as if the signatures thereto and hereto were upon the same instrument.

16. Applicable Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the internal laws of the State of New York.

17. Submission to Jurisdiction; Appointment of Agent for Service. The Company and each of the Selling Shareholders hereby irrevocably submits to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of the U.S. Federal and state courts in the Borough of Manhattan in The City of New York (each, a “New York Court”) in any suit or

proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement, the Time of Sale Prospectus, the Prospectus, the Registration Statement, the offering of the Shares or any transactions contemplated hereby. The Company and each of the Selling Shareholders irrevocably and unconditionally waives any objection to the laying of venue of any suit or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement, the Time of Sale Prospectus, the Prospectus, the Registration Statement, the offering of the Shares or any transactions contemplated hereby in a New York Court, and irrevocably and unconditionally waives and agrees not to plead or claim in any such court that any such suit or proceeding in any such court has been brought in an inconvenient forum. The Company and each of the Selling Shareholders irrevocably appoint Xxxxxxx Xxxx (USA), Inc., located at 00 Xxxx 00xx Xxxxxx, 00xx Xxxxx, Xxx Xxxx, Xxx Xxxx 00000, Attention: General Counsel, as their authorized agent (the “Authorized Agent”) in the Borough of Manhattan in The City of New York upon which process may be served in any such suit or proceeding, and agree that service of process in any manner permitted by applicable law upon such agent, and written notice of said service to each of the Selling Shareholders by the person serving the same to each of the Selling Shareholders at their respective addresses set forth on Schedule I hereto, shall be deemed in every respect effective service of process in any manner permitted by applicable law upon the Company and the Selling Shareholders in any such suit or proceeding. The Company and each of the Selling Shareholders further agree to take any and all action as may be necessary to maintain such designation and appointment of such agent in full force and effect for a period of seven years from the date of this Agreement. The Company and each of the Selling Shareholders irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any and all rights to trial by jury in any legal proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby.

18. Headings. The headings of the sections of this Agreement have been inserted for convenience of reference only and shall not be deemed a part of this Agreement.

19. Notices. All communications hereunder shall be in writing and effective only upon receipt and if to the Underwriters shall be delivered, mailed or sent to the Representatives in care of Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx & Co.

EXHIBIT A

1. Each Delaware Subsidiary has been duly incorporated or formed, as applicable, and is validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the State of Delaware. Each Delaware Subsidiary has all necessary corporate or limited liability company power and authority, as applicable, to own and hold its properties and conduct its business as described in the Pricing Disclosure Package and the Final Prospectus.

2. All of the issued and outstanding shares of the common stock of each Delaware Subsidiary are validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable.

3. The Underwriting Agreement (to the extent execution and delivery are governed by the laws of New York) has been duly executed and delivered by the Company.

4. The statements in the Pricing Disclosure Package and the Final Prospectus under the heading “Tax Considerations – U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences,” to the extent they constitute summaries of United States federal law or regulation or legal conclusions, have been reviewed by us and fairly summarize the matters described under the heading in all material respects.

5. The Registration Statement and the Final Prospectus, as of their respective effective or issue times, appear on their face to be appropriately responsive in all material respects to the requirements of the Act and the rules and regulations of the Commission under the Act (the “Rules and Regulations”), except for the financial statements, financial statement schedules and other financial data included in or omitted from either of them, as to which we express no opinion.

6. We do not know of any contract or other document which is required to be filed as an exhibit to the Registration Statement by the Act or the Rules and Regulations which has not been so filed.

7. The execution and delivery of the Underwriting Agreement, the compliance by the Company with all of the provisions of the Underwriting Agreement and the performance by the Company of its obligations thereunder will not (i) breach or result in a default under any agreement or instrument listed on Schedule C to this opinion or (ii) violate Applicable Law or any judgment, order or decree of any court or arbitrator known to us, except in the case of clauses (i) and (ii) above, where the breach, default or violation could not reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on the Company and its subsidiaries, taken as a whole. For purposes of this letter, the term “Applicable Law” means those laws, rules and regulations of the United States of America and the State of New York, in each case, which in our experience are normally

applicable to the transactions of the type contemplated by the Underwriting Agreement, except that, “Applicable Law” does not include federal securities laws, the anti-fraud provisions of the securities laws of any applicable jurisdiction or any state securities or Blue Sky laws of the various states.

8. No consent, approval, authorization or order of, or filing, registration or qualification with, any Governmental Authority, which has not been obtained, taken or made is required by the Company under any Applicable Law for the issuance or sale of the Shares or the performance by the Company of its obligations under the Underwriting Agreement. For purposes of this letter, the term “Governmental Authority” means any executive, legislative, judicial, administrative or regulatory body of the State of New York or the United States of America.

9. The Company is not and, after giving effect to the offering and sale of the Shares, will not be required to be registered as an investment company under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, and the rules and regulations of the Commission promulgated thereunder.

10. Under the laws of the State of New York relating to submission to jurisdiction, the Company has, pursuant to Section 17 of the Underwriting Agreement, validly and irrevocably submitted to the personal jurisdiction of any state or federal court located in the State of New York, in any action arising out of or relating to the Underwriting Agreement or the transactions contemplated thereby, and has validly and irrevocably appointed the Authorized Agent as its authorized agent for the purpose described in the Underwriting Agreement; and service of process effected on such agent in the manner set forth therein will be effective to confer valid personal jurisdiction over the Company. This opinion (10) is subject to the qualification that we express no opinion as to the enforceability of forum selection clauses in the federal courts.

EXHIBIT B

In the course of acting as special United States counsel to the Company in connection with the offering of the Shares, we have participated in conferences and telephone conversations with officers and other representatives of the Company and the independent registered public accountants for the Company during which conferences and conversations the contents of the Registration Statement, the Preliminary Prospectus and the Final Prospectus and related matters were discussed. Based upon such participation (and relying as to factual matters on officers, employees and other representatives of the Company and its subsidiaries), our understanding of the U.S. federal securities laws and the experience we have gained in our practice thereunder, we hereby advise you that our work in connection with this matter did not disclose any information that gave us reason to believe that (i) at the time it became effective, the Registration Statement (except for the financial statements, financial statement schedules and other financial data included or incorporated by reference therein or omitted therefrom, as to which we express no such belief), included an untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading; (ii) as of the Applicable Time, the Pricing Disclosure Package (except for the financial statements, financial statement schedules and other financial data included or incorporated by reference therein or omitted therefrom, as to which we express no such belief) included an untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading or (iii) at the time the Final Prospectus was issued or at the Closing Date, the Final Prospectus (except for the financial statements, financial statement schedules and other financial data included or incorporated therein or omitted therefrom, as to which we express no such belief) included an untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.

EXHIBIT C

1. Each Trust has duly authorized its Power-of-Attorney and Custody Agreement.

2. Each Selling Shareholder has duly executed and delivered its Power-of-Attorney to the extent governed by the laws of the State of New York. The Power-of-Attorney of each Selling Shareholder is a valid and legally binding obligation of such Selling Shareholder, enforceable against such Selling Shareholder in accordance with its terms, except that the enforceability of the Power-of-Attorney may be subject to bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, fraudulent conveyance or transfer, moratorium or similar laws affecting creditors’ rights generally and subject to general principles of equity (regardless of whether enforceability is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law) and except to the extent that the indemnification and contribution provisions may be unenforceable.

3. The Custody Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by or on behalf of each Selling Shareholder to the extent governed by the laws of the State of New York. The Custody Agreement of each Selling Shareholder is a valid and legally binding obligation of such Selling Shareholder, enforceable against such Selling Shareholder in accordance with its terms, except that the enforceability of the Custody Agreement may be subject to bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, fraudulent conveyance or transfer, moratorium or similar laws affecting creditors’ rights generally and subject to general principles of equity (regardless of whether enforceability is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law) and except to the extent that the indemnification and contribution provisions may be unenforceable.

4. Each Trust has all necessary power and authority to execute, deliver and perform its obligations under the Underwriting Agreement, its Power-of-Attorney and its Custody Agreement and to sell, assign, transfer and deliver the Shares.

5. The Underwriting Agreement has been duly authorized by each Trust and has been duly executed and delivered by or on behalf of each Selling Shareholder to the extent governed by the laws of New York.

6. With respect to each Selling Shareholder, the sale of the Shares to be sold by such Selling Shareholder under the Underwriting Agreement and the compliance by such Selling Shareholder with all of the provisions of the Underwriting Agreement, the Power-of-Attorney and the Custody Agreement with respect to such Shares will not (a) breach or result in a default under any indenture, mortgage, deed of trust, loan agreement or other agreement or instrument known to us to which such Selling Shareholder is a party or by which such Selling Shareholder is bound or to which any of the property or assets of such Selling Shareholder is subject, other than any breaches or defaults that could not reasonably be expected to materially adversely affect such Selling Shareholder’s ability to consummate the transactions contemplated by the

Underwriting Agreement, (b) violate in the case of each of the Trusts, its Trust Agreement and (c) violate Applicable Law or any judgment, order or decree of any court or arbitrator known to us, other than any violation that could not reasonably be expected to materially adversely affect such Selling Shareholder’s ability to consummate the transactions contemplated by the Underwriting Agreement. For purposes of this letter, the term “Applicable Law” means those laws, rules and regulations of the United States of America and the State of New York, in each case which in our experience are normally applicable to the transactions of the type contemplated by the Underwriting Agreement, except that “Applicable Law” does not include federal securities laws, the antifraud provisions of the securities laws of any applicable jurisdiction or any state securities or Blue Sky laws of the various States.

7. With respect to each Selling Shareholder, to our knowledge, no consent, approval, authorization or order of, or filing, registration or qualification with, any Governmental Authority, which has not been obtained, taken or made (other than as required by any state securities or Blue Sky laws, as to which we express no opinion) is required under any Applicable Law for the performance by such Selling Shareholder of its obligations under the Underwriting Agreement in connection with the Shares to be sold by such Selling Shareholders thereunder, except for the filings (if any) by the Selling Shareholders with the Securities and Exchange Commission required pursuant to Section 13(d), Section 13(f) or Section 16 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. For purposes of this letter, the term “Governmental Authorities” means any executive, legislative, judicial, administrative or regulatory body of the State of Delaware, New York or the United States of America.

8. Assuming each Underwriter acquires its interest in the Shares it has purchased from the Selling Shareholders under the Underwriting Agreement in good faith without notice of any adverse claim (within the meaning of Section 8-105 of the Uniform Commercial Code in effect in the State of New York on the date of this letter (the “NY-UCC”)) with respect to the Shares, (i) each Underwriter that has purchased the Shares delivered on the date hereof to The Depository Trust Company (assuming The Depository Trust Company is a clearing corporation within the meaning of Section 8-102(a)(5) of the NY-UCC) or other securities intermediary (assuming such other securities intermediary is a securities intermediary within the meaning of Section 8-102(14) of the NY-UCC) by making payment therefor as provided in the Underwriting Agreement, and that has had the Shares credited by book entry to the securities account or accounts (within the meaning of Section 8-501(a) of the NY-UCC, assuming that the securities intermediary’s jurisdiction (within the meaning of Section 8-110(e) of the NY-UCC) for the securities account or accounts is the State of New York) of such Underwriter maintained by The Depository Trust Company or such other securities intermediary will have acquired a security entitlement (within the meaning of Section 8-102(a)(17) of the NY-UCC) to such Shares purchased by such Underwriter, (ii) The Depository Trust Company or such other securities

intermediary shall be a “protected purchaser” of the Shares within the meaning of Section 8-303 of the NY-UCC (assuming that The Depository Trust Company or such other securities intermediary has no notice of an adverse claim within the meaning of Section 8-105 of the NY-UCC and that The Depository Trust Company is a clearing corporation within the meaning of Section 8-102(a)(5) of the NY-UCC or such other securities intermediary is a securities intermediary within the meaning of Section 8-102(14) of the NY-UCC), and (iii) no action based on an adverse claim (within the meaning of Section 8-102(a)(1) and Section 8-502 of the NY-UCC) may be asserted against such Underwriter with respect to such Shares.

9. Under the laws of the State of New York relating to submission to jurisdiction, the Selling Shareholders have, pursuant to Section 17 of the Underwriting Agreement, validly and irrevocably submitted to the personal jurisdiction of any state or federal court located in the State of New York, in any action arising out of or relating to the Underwriting Agreement or the transactions contemplated thereby, and have validly and irrevocably appointed the Authorized Agent as their authorized agent for the purpose described in the Underwriting Agreement; and service of process effected on such agent in the manner set forth therein will be effective to confer valid personal jurisdiction over the Selling Shareholders. This opinion (9) is subject to the qualification that we express no opinion as to the enforceability of forum selection clauses in the federal courts.

EXHIBIT D

(a) Existence and Good Standing. The Company is a company duly registered with limited liability for an unlimited duration under the BVI Business Companies Act, 2004, and is validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the British Virgin Islands. It is a separate legal entity and is subject to suit in its own name.

(b) Capacity and Power. The Company has full capacity to enter into and perform its obligations under the Underwriting Agreement and the Company has taken all necessary action to authorise its entry into the Underwriting Agreement and the exercise of its rights and the performance of its obligations under the Underwriting Agreement. The Company also has the power and capacity to own its property and to conduct its business as described in the Registration Statement, the Preliminary Prospectus Supplement and the Final Prospectus Supplement.

(d) Valid and Binding. The Underwriting Agreement will be treated by the courts of the British Virgin Islands as the legally binding, valid and enforceable obligations of the Company.

(e) Consents. No consents or authorisations of any government or official authorities of or in the British Virgin Islands are necessary for the entry into and performance by the Company of its obligations and the exercise of its rights pursuant to the Underwriting Agreement.

(f) Non-conflict. The execution and delivery of the Underwriting Agreement by the Company and the performance by the Company of its obligations and the exercise of any of its rights pursuant to the Underwriting Agreement do not and will not conflict with:

(i)

any law or regulation of the British Virgin Islands; or

(ii)

the Memorandum and Articles of Association of the Company.

(g) Stamp Duty. No stamp duties or similar documentary taxes imposed by or in the British Virgin Islands are payable in respect of the Underwriting Agreement.

(h) Interest. There is no applicable usury or interest limitation law in the British Virgin Islands which would restrict the recovery of payments or the performance by the Company of its obligations under the Underwriting Agreement.

(i) Withholding. The Company will not be required by any laws of the British Virgin Islands to make any deduction or withholding from any payment it may make under the Underwriting Agreement.

(j) Exchange Controls. There are no government controls or exchange controls in relation to the observance by the Company of its obligations under the Underwriting Agreement.

(k) Judgment Currency. Any monetary judgment in a court of the British Virgin Islands in respect of a claim brought in connection with the Underwriting Agreement is likely to be expressed in the currency in which such claim is made, since such courts have power to grant a monetary judgment expressed otherwise than in the currency of the British Virgin Islands, but they may not necessarily do so.

(l) Enforcement of Judgments. There is no statutory registration regime in the British Virgin Islands for judgments of the courts of the State of New York (the “Courts”). However, any final and conclusive monetary judgment for a definite sum obtained against the Company in the Courts in respect of the Underwriting Agreement would be treated by the courts of the British Virgin Islands as a cause of action in itself and sued upon as a debt at common law so that no retrial of the issues would be necessary provided that:

(i) the Courts had jurisdiction in the matter and the Company either submitted to such jurisdiction or was resident or carrying on business within such jurisdiction and was duly served with process;

(ii) the judgment given by the Courts was not in respect of penalties, taxes, fines or similar fiscal or revenue obligations;

(iii) the judgment was not procured by fraud;

(iv) recognition or enforcement of the judgment in the British Virgin Islands would not be contrary to public policy; and

(v) the proceedings pursuant to which judgment was obtained were not contrary to natural justice.

(m) Sovereign Immunity. The Company is not entitled to claim immunity from suit or enforcement of a judgment on the ground of sovereignty or otherwise in the courts of the British Virgin Islands in respect of proceedings against it in relation to the Underwriting Agreement and the execution of the Underwriting Agreement and performance of its obligations under the Underwriting Agreement by the Company constitute private and commercial acts.

(n) Adverse Consequences. Under the laws of the British Virgin Islands, the Underwriters will not be deemed to be resident, domiciled or carrying on any

commercial activity in the British Virgin Islands or subject to any tax in the British Virgin Islands by reason only of the execution, and performance of the Underwriting Agreement nor is it necessary for the execution, performance and enforcement of the Underwriting Agreement that the Underwriters be authorised or qualified to carry on business in the British Virgin Islands.

(o) Choice of Law and Jurisdiction. The choice of the law of the State of New York as the proper law of the Underwriting Agreement would be upheld as a valid choice of law by the courts of the British Virgin Islands and applied by such courts in proceedings in relation to the Underwriting Agreement as the proper law thereof and the submission by the Company to the jurisdiction of the courts of the State of New York and the nomination by the Company of an agent in the State of New York to accept service of process in respect of proceedings before such courts are valid.

(p) Registrations. It is not necessary in order to ensure the legality, validity, enforceability or admissibility in evidence in proceedings of the obligations of the Company or the rights of the Underwriters under the Underwriting Agreement that they or any other document be notarised, filed, registered or recorded in the British Virgin Islands.

(q) Pari Passu Obligations. The obligations of the Company under the Underwriting Agreement constitute direct obligations that rank at least pari passu with all its other unsecured obligations.

(r) Shares. The Company is authorised to issue a maximum of 650,000,000 Ordinary Shares with no par value of a single class.

(s) The Offered Shares. Based upon the Director’s Certificate, the Offered Shares have been validly allotted and issued, fully paid and non-assessable.

(t) The Ordinary Shares. Based upon the Director’s Certificate, all of the Ordinary Shares of the Company issued and outstanding prior to the offering of the Offered Shares have been duly authorised and validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable.

(u) Share Capital. The “Description of Share Capital” in the Registration Statement constitutes a fair and accurate summary in all material respects of the laws of the British Virgin Islands and the Company’s Memorandum and Articles of Association.

(v) High Court Searches. No court proceedings pending against the Company are indicated by our searches of the British Virgin Islands High Court Registry referred to at paragraph 2(f)(iii).

(w) Registry Searches. On the basis of our searches of the British Virgin Islands Registry of Corporate Affairs and the British Virgin Islands High Court

Registry referred to at paragraphs 2(f)(ii) and (iii) respectively, no currently valid order or resolution for liquidation of the Company and no current notice of appointment of a receiver over the Company or any of its assets appears on the records maintained in respect of the Company at the Registry of Corporate Affairs, but it should be noted that (i) failure to file notice of appointment of a receiver does not invalidate the receivership but merely gives rise to penalties on the part of the receiver, and (ii) a liquidator has 14 days after their appointment within which they must file notice of their appointment at the Registry of Corporate Affairs.

(x) Registered Office. In addition to contractual modes of service, service of process in the British Virgin Islands on the Company may be effected by leaving at the Registered Office of the Company the relevant document to be served. On the basis of our search of the British Virgin Islands Registry of Corporate Affairs referred to at paragraph 2(f)(ii) the registered office of the Company is at Offshore Incorporations Centre, X.X.

To induce the Underwriters that may participate in the Public Offering to continue their efforts in connection with the Public Offering, the undersigned hereby agrees that, without the prior written consent of the Representatives, it will not, during the period commencing on the date hereof and ending 90 days after the date of the final prospectus relating to the Public Offering (the “Prospectus”):

In addition, the undersigned agrees that, without the prior written consent of the Representatives, it will not, during the period commencing on the date hereof and ending 90 days after the date of the Prospectus, make any demand for or exercise any right with respect to, the registration of any Ordinary Shares or any security convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for Ordinary Shares, except if such demand or exercise of registration rights does not require or permit any public filing or other public disclosure to be made in connection therewith until 90 days after the date of the Prospectus. The undersigned also agrees and consents to the entry of stop transfer instructions with the Company’s transfer agent and registrar against the transfer of the undersigned’s Ordinary Shares except in compliance with the foregoing restrictions.

The undersigned understands that the Company and the Underwriters are relying upon this agreement in proceeding toward consummation of the Public Offering. The undersigned further understands that this agreement is irrevocable and shall be binding upon the undersigned’s heirs, legal representatives, successors and assigns.

Whether or not the Public Offering actually occurs depends on a number of factors, including market conditions. Any Public Offering will only be made pursuant to an Underwriting Agreement, the terms of which are subject to negotiation between the Company and the Underwriters.

This agreement shall be terminated and the undersigned shall be released from its obligations hereunder upon the earliest of: (i) termination of the Underwriting Agreement prior to the sale of any Ordinary Shares to the Underwriters, (ii) written notification by the Company and the Selling Shareholders that they do not intend to proceed with the Public Offering and (iii) April 15, 2013, in the event that the Public Offering has not been completed prior to such date.
