Huazhu Group Limited
No.699 Wuzhong Road
Minhang District
Shanghai (201103)
People’s Republic of China
Dear Sir/Madam,
Re: Huazhu Group Limited (the “Company”)
We have acted as special Cayman Islands legal counsel to the Company in connection with a registration statement on Form F-3 (the "Registration Statement") filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the "Commission") on or about 19 July 2021 under the U.S. Securities Act of 1933, as amended, (the "Securities Act") and the prospectus forming a part of the registration Statement (the “Prospectus”) through which Trip.com will offer ordinary shares, par value US$0.00001 each, held in the form of American depositary shares, in the Company, from time to time.
1. | DOCUMENTS REVIEWED |
For the purposes of giving this opinion, we have examined the following document(s):
1.1. | the Registration Statement; and |
1.2. | the Prospectus. |
The documents listed in items 1.1 through 1.2 above are herein sometimes collectively referred to as the "Documents" (which term does not include any other instrument or agreement whether or not specifically referred to therein or attached as an exhibit or schedule thereto).
We have also reviewed:
1.3. | a copy of the Memorandum and Articles of Association of the Company, each certified by the Secretary of the Company on 19 July 2021; |
1.4. | a copy of minutes of a meeting of its directors held on 20 July 2020 (the "Resolutions"); |
1.5. | a copy of a Certificate of Good Standing issued by the Registrar of Companies in relation to the Company on 12 July 2021 (the “Certificate Date”); and |
Partners: Piers J. Alexander, Christopher W. H. Bickley, Peter H. Y. Ch’ng, Anna W. T. Chong, Angie Y. Y. Chu, Vivien C. S. Fung, Richard J. Hall, Norman Hau, Wynne Lau, Paul M. L. Lim, Michael J. Makridakis, Teresa F. Tsai, Flora K. Y. Wong, Lilian S. C. Woo
Consultant: David M. Lamb
BERMUDA | BRITISH VIRGIN ISLANDS | CAYMAN ISLANDS
1.6. | such other documents and made such enquiries as to questions of law as we have deemed necessary in order to render the opinion set forth below. |
2. | ASSUMPTIONS |
We have assumed:
2.1. | the genuineness and authenticity of all signatures and the conformity to the originals of all copies (whether or not certified) examined by us and the authenticity and completeness of the originals from which such copies were taken; |
2.2. | that where a document has been examined by us in draft form, it will be or has been executed in the form of that draft, and where a number of drafts of a document have been examined by us all changes thereto have been marked or otherwise drawn to our attention; |
2.3. | the capacity, power and authority of each of the parties to the Documents, other than the Company, to enter into and perform its respective obligations under the Documents; |
2.4. | the due execution and delivery of the Documents by each of the parties thereto, other than the Company, and the physical delivery thereof by the Company with an intention to be bound thereby; |
2.5. | the accuracy and completeness of all factual representations made in the Documents and other documents reviewed by us; |
2.6. | that the Resolutions were passed at one or more duly convened, constituted and quorate meetings or by unanimous written resolutions, remain in full force and effect and have not been rescinded or amended; |
2.7. | that there is no provision of the law of any jurisdiction, other than the Cayman Islands, which would have any implication in relation to the opinions expressed herein; |
2.8. | the validity and binding effect under the laws of the State of New York, United States of America (the "Foreign Laws") of the Documents which are expressed to be governed by such Foreign Laws in accordance with their respective terms; and |
2.9. | that on the date of entering into the Document(s) the Company is and after entering into the Documents will be able to pay its liabilities as they become due. |
3. | QUALIFICATIONS |
3.1. | The obligations of the Company under the Document(s): |
(a) | will be subject to the laws from time to time in effect relating to bankruptcy, insolvency, liquidation, possessory liens, rights of set off, reorganisation, amalgamation, merger, consolidation, moratorium, bribery, corruption, money laundering, terrorist financing, proliferation financing or any other laws or legal procedures, whether of a similar nature or otherwise, generally affecting the rights of creditors as well as applicable international sanctions; |

conyers.com | 2
|
(c) | will be subject to general principles of equity and, as such, specific performance and injunctive relief, being equitable remedies, may not be available; |
(d) | may not be given effect to by a Cayman Islands court, whether or not it was applying the Foreign Laws, if and to the extent they constitute the payment of an amount which is in the nature of a penalty; and |
(e) | may not be given effect by a Cayman Islands court to the extent that they are to be performed in a jurisdiction outside the Cayman Islands and such performance would be illegal under the laws of that jurisdiction. Notwithstanding any contractual submission to the exclusive or non-exclusive jurisdiction of specific courts, a Cayman Islands court has inherent discretion to stay or allow proceedings in the Cayman Islands against the Company under the Documents if there are other proceedings in respect of the Documents simultaneously underway against the Company in another jurisdiction. |
3.2. | We express no opinion as to the enforceability of any provision of the Documents which provides for the payment of a specified rate of interest on the amount of a judgment after the date of judgment or which purports to fetter the statutory powers of the Company. |
3.3. | We have made no investigation of and express no opinion in relation to the laws of any jurisdiction other than the Cayman Islands. This opinion is to be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the Cayman Islands and is limited to and is given on the basis of the current law and practice in the Cayman Islands.
