4                     Qualifications

The opinions set out in Section 3 above are subject to the following qualifications:

a)                             We express no opinion as to any law other than Swiss law and none of the opinions expressed herein relates to compliance with or matters governed by the laws of any jurisdiction except Switzerland. This opinion is limited to Swiss law as applied by the courts of Switzerland at the date hereof.

b)                             Where an obligation is to be performed in a jurisdiction other than Switzerland, the courts of Switzerland may refuse to enforce it to the extent that such performance would be illegal under the laws of, or contrary to public policy of, such other jurisdiction.

c)                              We express no opinion as to the validity, binding effect or enforceability of any provision incorporated into any of the Subject Agreements by reference to a law other than that of Switzerland, or as to the availability in Switzerland of remedies which are available in other jurisdictions.

d)                             We have been retained as special Swiss legal counsel to the Guarantor to advise on legal aspects (but not tax aspects) of the transaction contemplated by the Subject Agreements and the Prospectus and therefore we express no opinion on tax or accounting matters in relation to the transactions contemplated by the Subject Agreements, the Securities or the Prospectus.

f)                               In this opinion, Swiss legal concepts are expressed in English terms and not in their original Swiss language; the concepts concerned may not be identical to the concepts described by the same English terms as they exist under the laws of other jurisdictions; this opinion may, therefore, only be relied upon on the condition that any issues of interpretation or liability arising hereunder will be governed by Swiss law and be brought before a Swiss court.

This opinion speaks as of its date and is strictly limited to the matters stated herein and we assume no obligation to review or update this opinion if applicable law or the existing facts or circumstances should change. This opinion is governed by and is to be construed in accordance with Swiss law. It is given on the basis that it will not give rise to any legal proceedings with respect thereto in any jurisdiction other than Switzerland.
