Explanatory Note
On January 23, 2024, the Company entered into Convertible Note Purchase Agreements (“CNPA”) with certain investors (the “Investors”). On January 24, 2024, the Company issued to each Investor an Unsecured Convertible Promissory Note (the “Notes”) pursuant to the CNPAs. The aggregate original principal amount of the Notes is $9,500,000.00.
The Notes were offered in a registered direct offering and registered under the Securities Act pursuant to a prospectus supplement to an existing effective shelf registration statement of the Company.
The Note has a term of twenty-four (24) months commencing on January 24, 2024. The Notes carry an aggregate original issue discount of $760,000. The Company bore the costs and other transaction expenses incurred in connection with the purchase and sale of the Notes.
Subject to a Ownership Limitation (defined below), each Investor has the right to elect to convert all or a portion of the outstanding balance under the Note into ordinary shares of the Company pursuant to the following formula: conversion shares equals amount being converted divided by the conversion price, which is calculated as (A) the lowest market closing price of the Company’s ordinary shares in the twenty (20) trading days preceding the date of conversion request (B) multiplied by 70% and (C) rounded down to the nearest 2 decimal places. The conversion is subject to adjustment in the event of a stock split, stock dividend, recapitalization, or similar transaction.
Ownership Limitation: The Company may at it option decline to effect any conversion of the outstanding balance under the Note to the extent that after giving effect to such conversion would cause the Investors (on an individual basis) to beneficially own a number of shares exceeding 9.99% of the number of shares outstanding on such date
Upon occurrence of an Event of Default (as defined in the Note), the interest rate shall accrue on the outstanding balance at the rate equal to 10% per annum. In the event of a default, Investors will continue to have the right to make conversions until such time the outstanding balance is paid in full.
The Registrant will use the net proceeds from the offering of the Note for working capital and general corporate purposes.
The foregoing descriptions of the CNPAs and the Notes are summaries of the material terms of such agreements, do not purport to be complete and are qualified in their entirety by reference to the CNPAs and the Note, which are attached hereto as Exhibits 99.1 and 99.2. The prospectus supplement relating to the Offering is filed on the SEC’s web site at http://www.sec.gov.
The information contained in this Report is hereby incorporated by reference into the Company’s registration statement on Form F-3 as amended (File No. 333-274650), filed with the Commission on October 11, 2023.

These opinions only relate to the laws of the Cayman Islands which are in force on the date of this opinion letter. In giving the following opinions, we have relied (without further verification) upon the completeness and accuracy, as at the date of this opinion letter, of the Director’s Certificate and the Certificate of Good Standing. We have also relied upon the following assumptions, which we have not independently verified:

| 2.3 | The choice of the Relevant Law as the governing law of the Transaction Documents and the Notes has been made in good faith and would be regarded as a valid and binding selection which will be upheld by the courts of New York (the “Relevant Jurisdiction”) and any other relevant jurisdiction (other than the Cayman Islands) as a matter of the Relevant Law and all other relevant laws (other than the laws of the Cayman Islands). |
| 2.4 | Where a Transaction Document has been provided to us in draft or undated form, it will be duly executed, dated and unconditionally delivered by all parties thereto in materially the same form as the last version provided to us and, where we have been provided with successive drafts of a Transaction Document marked to show changes to a previous draft, all such changes have been accurately marked. |
| 2.5 | Copies of documents, conformed copies or drafts of documents provided to us are true and complete copies of, or in the final forms of, the originals, and translations of documents provided to us are complete and accurate. |
| 2.6 | All signatures, initials and seals are genuine. |

2
| 2.9 | The Notes will be issued and authenticated in accordance with the provisions of the Note Purchase Agreements (as defined below). |
| 2.10 | No monies paid to or for the account of any party under the Transaction Documents or any property received or disposed of by any party to the Transaction Documents in each case in connection with the Transaction Documents or the consummation of the transactions contemplated thereby represent or will represent proceeds of criminal conduct or criminal property or terrorist property (as defined in the Proceeds of Crime Act (As Revised) and the Terrorism Act (As Revised), respectively). |
| 2.11 | No invitation has been or will be made by or on behalf of the Company to the public in the Cayman Islands to subscribe for the Notes. |
| 2.12 | There is nothing under any law (other than the laws of the Cayman Islands) which would or might affect the opinions set out below. Specifically, we have made no independent investigation of the Relevant Law. |
| 2.13 | The Court Register constitutes a complete record of the proceedings before the Grand Court as at the time of the Litigation Search (as those terms are defined below). |
| 3 | Opinions |
Based upon, and subject to, the foregoing assumptions and the qualifications set out below, and having regard to such legal considerations as we deem relevant, we are of the opinion that:
| 3.1 | The Company has been duly incorporated as an exempted company with limited liability and is validly existing and in good standing with the Registrar of Companies under the laws of the Cayman Islands. |
| 3.2 | The Company has all requisite power and authority under the Memorandum and Articles to enter into, execute and perform its obligations under the Transaction Documents and the Notes. |
| 3.3 | The execution and delivery of the Transaction Documents do not, and the issue and offer of the Notes and the performance by the Company of its obligations under the Transaction Documents will not, conflict with or result in a breach of any of the terms or provisions of the Memorandum and Articles or any law, public rule or regulation applicable to the Company currently in force in the Cayman Islands. |
| 3.4 | The execution, delivery and performance of the Transaction Documents have been authorised by and on behalf of the Company and, upon the execution and unconditional delivery of the Transaction Documents by an Authorized Officer (as defined in the Board Resolutions) for and on behalf of the Company, the Transaction Documents will have been duly executed and delivered on behalf of the Company and will constitute the legal, valid and binding obligations of the Company enforceable in accordance with their terms. |
| 3.5 | The Notes have been duly authorised by the Company and when the Notes are signed in fax or manually by a director on behalf of the Company and, if appropriate, authenticated in the manner set forth in the Note Purchase Agreements and delivered against due payment therefor will be duly executed, issued and delivered and will constitute the legal, valid and binding obligations of the Company enforceable in accordance with their respective terms. |
3
| 3.6 | No authorisations, consents, approvals, licences, validations or exemptions are required by law from any governmental authorities or agencies or other official bodies in the Cayman Islands in connection with: |
| (a) | the execution, creation or delivery of the Transaction Documents by and on behalf of the Company; |
| (b) | subject to the payment of the appropriate stamp duty, enforcement of the Transaction Documents against the Company; |
| (c) | the offering, execution, authentication, allotment, issue or delivery of the Notes; |
| (d) | the performance by the Company of its obligations under the Notes and the Transaction Documents; or |
| (e) | the payment of the principal and interest and any other amounts under the Notes. |
| 3.7 | No taxes, fees or charges (other than stamp duty) are payable (either by direct assessment or withholding) to the government or other taxing authority in the Cayman Islands under the laws of the Cayman Islands in respect of: |
| (a) | the execution or delivery of the Transaction Documents or the Notes; |
| (b) | the enforcement of the Transaction Documents or the Notes; |
| (c) | payments made under, or pursuant to, the Transaction Documents; or |
| (d) | the issue, transfer or redemption of the Notes. |
The Cayman Islands currently has no form of income, corporate or capital gains tax and no estate duty, inheritance tax or gift tax.
| 3.8 | The courts of the Cayman Islands will observe and give effect to the choice of the Relevant Law as the governing law of the Transaction Documents and the Notes. |
| 3.9 | Based solely on our search of the Register of Writs and Other Originating Process (the “Court Register”) maintained by the Clerk of the Court of the Grand Court of the Cayman Islands (the “Grand Court”) from the date of incorporation of the Company to the close of business (Cayman Islands time) on 22 January 2024 (the “Litigation Search”), the Court Register disclosed no writ, originating summons, originating motion, petition (including any petition for the winding-up of the Company or for the appointment of restructuring officers or interim restructuring officers thereto), counterclaim nor third party notice (“Originating Process”) nor any amended Originating Process pending before the Grand Court, in which the Company is identified as a defendant or respondent. |
| 3.10 | Although there is no statutory enforcement in the Cayman Islands of judgments obtained in the Relevant Jurisdiction, a judgment obtained in such jurisdiction will be recognised and enforced in the courts of the Cayman Islands at common law, without any re-examination of the merits of the underlying dispute, by an action commenced on the foreign judgment debt in the Grand Court, provided such judgment: |
| (a) | is given by a foreign court of competent jurisdiction; |
4
| (b) | imposes on the judgment debtor a liability to pay a liquidated sum for which the judgment has been given; |
| (c) | is final; |
| (d) | is not in respect of taxes, a fine or a penalty; and |
| (e) | was not obtained in a manner and is not of a kind the enforcement of which is contrary to natural justice or the public policy of the Cayman Islands. |
| 3.11 | It is not necessary to ensure the legality, validity, enforceability or admissibility in evidence of the Transaction Documents or the Notes that any document be filed, recorded or enrolled with any governmental authority or agency or any official body in the Cayman Islands. |
| 4 | Qualifications |
The opinions expressed above are subject to the following qualifications:
| 4.1 | The obligations assumed by the Company under the Transaction Documents and the Notes will not necessarily be enforceable in all circumstances in accordance with their terms. In particular: |
| (a) | enforcement may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, liquidation, reorganisation, readjustment of debts or moratorium or other laws of general application relating to, protecting or affecting the rights of creditors and/or contributories; |
| (b) | enforcement may be limited by general principles of equity. For example, equitable remedies such as specific performance may not be available, inter alia, where damages are considered to be an adequate remedy; |
| (c) | some claims may become barred under relevant statutes of limitation or may be or become subject to defences of set off, counterclaim, estoppel and similar defences; |
| (d) | where obligations are to be performed in a jurisdiction outside the Cayman Islands, they may not be enforceable in the Cayman Islands to the extent that performance would be illegal under the laws of that jurisdiction; |
| (e) | the courts of the Cayman Islands have jurisdiction to give judgment in the currency of the relevant obligation and statutory rates of interest payable upon judgments will vary according to the currency of the judgment. If the Company becomes insolvent and is made subject to a liquidation proceeding, the courts of the Cayman Islands will require all debts to be proved in a common currency, which is likely to be the “functional currency” of the Company determined in accordance with applicable accounting principles. Currency indemnity provisions have not been tested, so far as we are aware, in the courts of the Cayman Islands; |
| (f) | arrangements that constitute penalties will not be enforceable; |
| (g) | enforcement may be prevented by reason of fraud, coercion, duress, undue influence, misrepresentation, public policy or mistake or limited by the doctrine of frustration of contracts; |
5
| (h) | provisions imposing confidentiality obligations may be overridden by compulsion of applicable law or the requirements of legal and/or regulatory process; |
| (i) | the courts of the Cayman Islands may decline to exercise jurisdiction in relation to substantive proceedings brought under or in relation to the Transaction Documents in matters where they determine that such proceedings may be tried in a more appropriate forum; |
| (j) | any provision in a Transaction Document which is governed by Cayman Islands law purporting to impose obligations on a person who is not a party to such Transaction Document (a “third party”) is unenforceable against that third party. Any provision in a Transaction Document which is governed by Cayman Islands law purporting to grant rights to a third party is unenforceable by that third party, except to the extent that such Transaction Document expressly provides that the third party may, in its own right, enforce such rights (subject to and in accordance with the Contracts (Rights of Third Parties) Act (As Revised) of the Cayman Islands); |
| (k) | any provision of a Transaction Document which is governed by Cayman Islands law which expresses any matter to be determined by future agreement may be void or unenforceable; |
| (l) | we reserve our opinion as to the enforceability of the relevant provisions of the Transaction Documents to the extent that they purport to grant exclusive jurisdiction as there may be circumstances in which the courts of the Cayman Islands would accept jurisdiction notwithstanding such provisions; |
| (m) | a company cannot, by agreement or in its articles of association, restrict the exercise of a statutory power and there is doubt as to the enforceability of any provision in the Transaction Documents whereby the Company covenants to restrict the exercise of powers specifically given to it under the Companies Act (As Revised) of the Cayman Islands (the “Companies Act”), including, without limitation, the power to increase its authorised share capital, amend its memorandum and articles of association or present a petition to a Cayman Islands court for an order to wind up the Company; |
| (n) | if the Company becomes subject to Part XVIIA of the Companies Act, enforcement or performance of any provision in the Transaction Documents which relates, directly or indirectly, to an interest in the Company constituting shares, voting rights or director appointment rights in the Company may be prohibited or restricted if any such relevant interest is or becomes subject to a restrictions notice issued under the Companies Act; and |
| (o) | enforcement or performance of any provision in the Transaction Documents which relates, directly or indirectly, to an interest in a Cayman Islands company or limited liability company constituting shares, membership interests, voting rights or director or manager appointment rights in respect of such company or limited liability company may be prohibited or restricted if any such relevant interest is or becomes subject to a restrictions notice issued under the Companies Act or the Limited Liability Companies Act (As Revised) (the “LLC Act”). |
| 4.2 | Applicable court fees will be payable in respect of the enforcement of the Transaction Documents. |
| 4.3 | Cayman Islands stamp duty may be payable if the original Transaction Documents are brought to or executed in the Cayman Islands. |
6
| 4.4 | To maintain the Company in good standing with the Registrar of Companies under the laws of the Cayman Islands, annual filing fees must be paid and returns made to the Registrar of Companies within the time frame prescribed by law. |
| 4.5 | The Company must make an entry in its register of mortgages and charges in respect of all mortgages and charges created under the Transaction Documents in order to comply with section 54 of the Companies Act; failure by the Company to comply with this requirement does not operate to invalidate any mortgage or charge though it may be in the interests of the secured parties that the Company should comply with the statutory requirements. |
| 4.6 | The obligations of the Company may be subject to restrictions pursuant to: |
| (a) | United Nations and United Kingdom sanctions extended to the Cayman Islands by Orders in Council; and |
| (b) | sanctions imposed by Cayman Islands authorities under Cayman Islands legislation. |
| 4.7 | A certificate, determination, calculation or designation of any party to the Transaction Documents as to any matter provided therein might be held by a Cayman Islands court not to be conclusive, final and binding if, for example, it could be shown to have an unreasonable or arbitrary basis, or in the event of manifest error. |
| 4.8 | The Litigation Search of the Court Register would not reveal, amongst other things, an Originating Process filed with the Grand Court which, pursuant to the Grand Court Rules or best practice of the Clerk of the Courts’ office, should have been entered in the Court Register but was not in fact entered in the Court Register (properly or at all), or any Originating Process which has been placed under seal or anonymised (whether by order of the Court or pursuant to the practice of the Clerk of the Courts’ office). |
| 4.9 | In principle the courts of the Cayman Islands will award costs and disbursements in litigation in accordance with the relevant contractual provisions but there remains some uncertainty as to the way in which the rules of the Grand Court will be applied in practice. Whilst it is clear that costs incurred prior to judgment can be recovered in accordance with the contract, it is likely that post-judgment costs (to the extent recoverable at all) will be subject to taxation in accordance with Grand Court Rules Order 62. |
| 4.10 | We reserve our opinion as to the extent to which the courts of the Cayman Islands would, in the event of any relevant illegality or invalidity, sever the relevant provisions of the Transaction Documents and enforce the remainder of the Transaction Documents or the transaction of which such provisions form a part, notwithstanding any express provisions in the Transaction Documents in this regard. |
| 4.11 | We express no opinion as to the meaning, validity or effect of any references to foreign (i.e. non-Cayman Islands) statutes, rules, regulations, codes, judicial authority or any other promulgations and any references to them in the Transaction Documents. |
We express no view as to the commercial terms of the Transaction Documents or whether such terms represent the intentions of the parties and make no comment with regard to warranties or representations that may be made by the Company.
7
We express no opinion with respect to any direct or indirect acquisition, disposal or exercise of rights by the Company of or in respect of any interest in any property governed by the laws of or situated in the Cayman Islands.
The opinions in this opinion letter are strictly limited to the matters contained in the opinions section above and do not extend to any other matters. We have not been asked to review and we therefore have not reviewed any of the ancillary documents relating to the Transaction Documents and express no opinion or observation upon the terms of any such document.
This opinion letter is addressed to and for the benefit solely of the addressee and may not be relied upon by any other person for any purpose, nor may it be transmitted or disclosed (in whole or part) to any other person without our prior written consent.
Yours faithfully

EXHIBIT A

Exhibit 99.2
CONVERTIBLE PROMISSORY NOTE
| Effective Date: [ ] | U.S. $[ ] |
FOR VALUE RECEIVED, MicroCloud Hologram Inc., a Cayman Islands exempted company (“Borrower”), promises to pay to _______, a __________ company, or its successors or assigns (“Lender”), $[ ] and any interest, fees, charges, and late fees accrued hereunder on the date (the “Maturity Date”) that is twenty-four (24) months after the date the Purchase Price for this Note is delivered by Lender to Borrower (the “Purchase Price Date”) in accordance with the terms set forth herein and to pay interest on the Outstanding Balance (as defined below) at the simple rate of 0% per annum from the Purchase Price Date until the same is paid in full. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Borrower may, in its sole discretion, by delivery of a written notice to Lender not less than two (2) days prior to the then applicable Maturity Date, extend the Maturity Date; provided that the new Maturity Date shall in no event be more than three hundred and sixty-four (364) days after the Purchase Price Date. All interests hereunder shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year comprised of twelve (12) thirty (30) day months, and shall be payable on the Maturity Date.
This Convertible Promissory Note (this “Note”) is issued and made effective as of [ ] (the “Effective Date”). This Note is issued pursuant to that certain Convertible Note Purchase Agreement dated [ ], as the same may be amended from time to time, by and between Borrower and Lender (the “Purchase Agreement”). For all purposes of this Note, (a) the “Outstanding Balance” means, as of any date of determination, the Purchase Price, as reduced or increased, as the case may be, pursuant to the terms hereof for payment, Conversion (as defined below), offset, or otherwise, plus accrued but unpaid interest, and (b) “Business Day” means any day that is not a Saturday, a Sunday or other day on which banks are required or authorized by applicable laws to be closed in Beijing, Cayman Islands, Hong Kong or New York.
The purchase price for this Note shall be $[ ] (the “Purchase Price”). The Purchase Price shall be payable by Lender by wire transfer of immediately available funds.
1. Payment; Prepayment.
1.1. Payment. All payments owing hereunder shall be in lawful money of the United States of America or Conversion Shares (as defined below), as provided for herein, and delivered to Lender at the address or bank account furnished to Borrower for that purpose. All payments shall be applied first to (a) costs of collection, if any, then to (b) fees and charges, if any, then to (c) accrued and unpaid interest, and thereafter, to (d) principal.
1.2. Prepayment. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Borrower shall have the right to prepay all or any portion of the Outstanding Balance (less such portion of the Outstanding Balance for which Borrower has received a Conversion Notice (as defined below) from Lender where the applicable Conversion Shares have not yet been delivered).
2. Security. This Note is unsecured.
3. Lender Optional Conversion.
3.1. Conversions. Lender has the right at any time after the Purchase Price Date until the Outstanding Balance has been paid in full, at its election, to convert (“Conversion”) all, or a portion of the Outstanding Balance into ordinary shares of par value US$0.0001 each of Borrower (“Conversion Shares”) as per the following conversion formula: the number of Conversion Shares equals the amount being converted (the “Conversion Amount”) divided by the Conversion Price. Conversion notices shall be in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A (each, a “Conversion Notice”) and may be effectively delivered to Borrower by any method set forth in the “Notices” section of the Purchase Agreement. Borrower shall take necessary actions to enable the share registrar or transfer agent to deliver the Conversion Shares from any Conversion to Lender or its Permitted Designee (as defined below) in accordance with Section 7 below. “Permitted Designee” means any individual, partnership, firm, corporation, association, trust, unincorporated organization or other entity which directly, legally and beneficially owns any issued and outstanding equity securities of Lender.
3.2. Conversion Price. Subject to adjustment as set forth in this Note, the price at which Lender has the right to convert all, and no less than all, of the Outstanding Balance into Conversion Shares is the Conversion Price, which shall be calculated as (A) the lowest market closing price of the Company’s ordinary shares in the twenty (20) trading days preceding the date of the Conversion Notice (the “Reference Price”), (B) multiplied by 70%, and (C) rounded down to the nearest 2 decimal places, subject to adjustment in the event of a stock split, stock dividend, recapitalization, or similar transactions.
4. Trigger Events; Defaults; and Remedies.
4.1. Trigger Events. The following are trigger events under this Note (each, a “Trigger Event”): (a) Borrower fails to pay any principal, interest, fees, charges, or any other amount when due and payable hereunder; (b) a receiver, trustee or other similar official shall be appointed over Borrower or a material part of its assets and such appointment shall remain uncontested for 60 days or shall not be dismissed or discharged within 60 days; (c) Borrower files a petition for relief under any bankruptcy, insolvency or similar law (domestic or foreign); (d) an involuntary bankruptcy proceeding is commenced or filed against Borrower.
4.2. Defaults. At any time following the occurrence of a Trigger Event, Lender may, at its option, send written notice to Borrower demanding that Borrower cure the Trigger Event within 60 Business Days. If Borrower fails to cure the Trigger Event within the required 60 Business Day cure period, the Trigger Event will automatically become an event of default hereunder (each, an “Event of Default”) and the date of the Event of Default shall be the 60th Business Day following the occurrence of the relevant Trigger Event.
2
4.3. Default Remedies. At any time and from time to time following the occurrence of any Event of Default, Lender may accelerate this Note by written notice to Borrower, with the Outstanding Balance becoming immediately due and payable in cash. At any time following the occurrence of any Event of Default, upon written notice given by Lender to Borrower to accelerate this Note, interest shall accrue on the Outstanding Balance beginning on the date the applicable Event of Default occurred at an interest rate equal to 10% per annum (“Default Interest”) until the Outstanding Balance is paid in full. For the avoidance of doubt, the foregoing interest rate of 10% per annum shall be the only interest that may accrue on the Outstanding Balance beginning on the date of the applicable Event of Default, and the original interest rate of 0% per annum shall cease to have effect from the date of the applicable Event of Default. Lender may continue making Conversions at any time following a Trigger Event or an Event of Default until such time as the Outstanding Balance is paid in full. Such acceleration may be rescinded and annulled by Lender at any time prior to payment hereunder and Lender shall have all rights as a holder of the Note until such time, if any, as Lender receives full payment pursuant to this Section 4.3. No such rescission or annulment shall affect any subsequent Event of Default or impair any right consequent thereon. Nothing herein shall limit Lender’s right to pursue any other remedies available to it at law or in equity including, without limitation, a decree of specific performance and/or injunctive relief with respect to Borrower’s failure to timely deliver Conversion Shares upon Conversion of the Note as required pursuant to the terms hereof.
5. Waiver. No waiver of any provision of this Note shall be effective unless it is in the form of a writing signed by the party granting the waiver. No waiver of any provision or consent to any prohibited action shall constitute a waiver of any other provision or consent to any other prohibited action, whether or not similar. No waiver or consent shall constitute a continuing waiver or consent or commit a party to provide a waiver or consent in the future except to the extent specifically set forth in writing.
6. Adjustment of Conversion Price upon Share Subdivision or Combination. Without limiting any provision hereof, if Borrower at any time on or after the Effective Date subdivides (by any stock split, stock dividend, recapitalization, ratio change or otherwise) its outstanding ordinary shares into a greater number of shares, the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to such subdivision will be proportionately reduced. Without limiting any provision hereof, if Borrower at any time on or after the Effective Date combines (by combination, reverse stock split, ratio change or otherwise) its outstanding Class ordinary shares into a smaller number of shares, the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to such combination will be proportionately increased. Any adjustment pursuant to this Section 6 shall become effective immediately after the effective date of such subdivision or combination. If any event requiring an adjustment under this Section 6 occurs during the period that a Conversion Price is calculated hereunder, then the calculation of such Conversion Price shall be adjusted appropriately to reflect such event.
7. Method of Conversion Share Delivery. On or before the close of business on the 10th Business Day following the date of delivery of a Conversion Notice (the “Delivery Date”), Borrower shall deliver or cause its share registrar or transfer agent to deliver the applicable Conversion Shares and a certificate representing the number of Conversion Shares to which Lender shall be entitled, registered in the name of Lender or its Permitted Designee. Moreover, and notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Transaction Document, in the event Borrower or its share registrar or transfer agent refuses to deliver any Conversion Shares without a restrictive securities legend to Lender on grounds that such issuance is in violation of Rule 144 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (“Rule 144”), Borrower shall deliver or cause its share registrar or transfer agent to deliver the applicable Conversion Shares to Lender with a restricted securities legend, but otherwise in accordance with the provisions of this Section 7.
3
8. Issuance Fees. Lender will be solely liable for any fees that must be paid by Borrower in order to issue any Conversion Shares.
9. Ownership Limitation. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Note or the other Transaction Documents, Borrower may, at its option, decline to effect any conversion of this Note to the extent that after giving effect to such conversion would cause each of Lender or any Permitted Designee to, on an individual basis, beneficially own a number of shares exceeding 9.99% of the number of shares outstanding on such date (including for such purpose the Conversion Shares issuable upon such issuance) (the “Maximum Percentage”). For purposes of this section, beneficial ownership of shares will be determined pursuant to Section 13(d) of the 1934 Act. Borrower and Lender may, by written agreement, increase, decrease or waive the Maximum Percentage as to Lender.
10. Opinion of Counsel. In the event that an opinion of counsel is needed for any matter related to this Note, Lender has the right to have any such opinion provided by its counsel at its own costs.
11. Governing Law; Dispute Resolution. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed exclusively in accordance with the laws of New York, without giving effect to any choice of law rule that would cause the application of the laws of any jurisdiction to the rights and duties of the parties hereunder. The Company and the Purchaser agree to negotiate in good faith to resolve any dispute, controversy, difference or claim arising out of or relating to or regarding this Agreement including the existence, validity, interpretation, performance, breach or termination thereof or any dispute regarding non-contractual obligations arising out of or relating to it (each, a “Dispute”).
12. Cancellation. After repayment or conversion of the entire Outstanding Balance, this Note shall be deemed paid in full, shall automatically be deemed canceled, and shall not be reissued.
13. Amendments. The prior written consent of both parties hereto shall be required for any change or amendment to this Note.
14. Assignments. Borrower may not assign this Note without the prior written consent of Lender. This Note may not be offered, sold, assigned or transferred by Lender without the consent of Borrower, and Borrower is not obligated to give such consent. For avoidance of doubt, ADSs issued to Lender upon conversion of Conversion Shares may be offered, sold, assigned or transferred by Lender without the consent of Borrower.
15. Notices. Whenever notice is required to be given under this Note, unless otherwise provided herein, such notice shall be given in accordance with the section of the Purchase Agreement titled “Notices.”
16. Severability. If any part of this Note is construed to be in violation of any law, such part shall be modified to achieve the objective of Borrower and Lender to the fullest extent permitted by law and the balance of this Note shall remain in full force and effect.
