All
documents subsequently filed by the Registrant with the Commission pursuant to Sections 13(a), 13(c), 14 and 15(d) of the Securities

5. INTERESTS OF NAMED EXPERTS AND COUNSEL.

ITEM
6. INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS.
Cayman
Islands law does not limit the extent to which a company’s articles of association may provide for indemnification of officers
and directors, except to the extent any such provision may be held by the Cayman Islands courts to be contrary to public policy, such
as to provide indemnification against civil fraud or the consequences of committing a crime. The Registrant’s Amended and Restated
Memorandum and Articles of Association permit indemnification of officers and directors for any liability, action, proceeding, claim,
demand, costs damages or expenses, including legal expenses, incurred in their capacities as such unless such liability (if any) arises
from actual fraud, willful neglect or willful default which may attach to such directors or officers. This standard of conduct is generally
the same as permitted under the Delaware General Corporation Law for a Delaware corporation. In addition, the Registrant entered into
indemnification agreements with its directors and executive officers that provide such persons with additional indemnification beyond
that provided in the Registrant’s Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association.
Insofar
as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to the directors, officers or persons controlling
us under the foregoing provisions, the Registrant has been informed that, in the opinion of the Commission, such indemnification is against
public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is therefore unenforceable.

ITEM
9. UNDERTAKINGS.
(a) | The
undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes: |
| (1) | To
file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment
to this Registration Statement: |
| (i) | To
include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act; |
| (ii) | To
reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of the Registration
Statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in
the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in the Registration
Statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in volume of securities
offered (if the total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which was
registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum offering
range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule
424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than 20% change
in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the “Calculation of Registration
Fee” table in the effective registration statement; and |
| (iii) | To
include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously
disclosed in the Registration Statement or any material change to such information in the
Registration Statement; |
provided,
however, that paragraphs (a)(1)(i) and (a)(1)(ii) of this section do not apply if the registration statement is on Form S-8, and
the information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is contained in reports filed with or furnished
to the Commission by the Registrant pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 that are incorporated
by reference in the registration statement;
| (2) | That,
for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each such
post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the
securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed
to be the initial bona fide offering thereof; and |
| (3) | To
remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being
registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering. |
(b) | The
undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of determining any liability
under the Securities Act, each filing of the Registrant’s annual report pursuant to
Section 13(a) or Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act (and, where applicable, each filing of
an employee benefit plan’s annual report pursuant to Section 15(d) of the Exchange
Act) that is incorporated by reference in this Registration Statement shall be deemed to
be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering
of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering
thereof. |
(h) | Insofar as
indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of
the Registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the Registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the
Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the
event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the Registrant of expenses incurred or
paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the Registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is
asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the Registrant will,
unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate
jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be
governed by the final adjudication of such issue. |
SIGNATURES
Pursuant
to the requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, the registrant certifies that it has reasonable grounds to believe that it meets all
of the requirements for filing on Form S-8 and has duly caused this registration statement to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned,
thereunto duly authorized, in Singapore on February 10, 2025.

ESGL
Holdings Limited
We
have acted as counsel as to Cayman Islands law to ESGL Holdings Limited (the “Company”) to provide this opinion letter
in connection with the Company’s registration statement on Form S-8, including all amendments or supplements thereto, filed with
the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) under the United States Securities Act of
1933 as amended (the “Act”) (including its exhibits, the “Registration Statement”) related to the
reservation for issuance of 1,201,821 ordinary shares of the Company of a par value of US$0.0001 each (the “Shares”)
authorised for issuance pursuant to the ESGL Holdings Limited Equity Incentive Plan (the “Plan”).
We
have reviewed originals, copies, drafts or conformed copies of the following documents, and such other documents as we deem necessary:
1.1 | The
certificate of incorporation dated 18 November 2022 and the certificate of merger dated 2
August 2023 and the amended and restated memorandum and articles of association of the Company
as registered or adopted on 2 August 2023 (the “Memorandum and Articles”). |
| |
1.2 | The
written resolutions of the board of directors of the Company dated 16 December 2024 and 7
February 2025 (together, the “Resolutions”). |
| |
1.3 | A
certificate of good standing with respect to the Company issued by the Registrar of Companies
(the “Certificate of Good Standing”). |
| |
1.4 | A
certificate from a director of the Company, a copy of which is attached to this opinion letter
(the “Director’s Certificate”). |
| |
1.5 | The
Registration Statement. |
| |
1.6 | The
Plan. |

The
following opinions are given only as to, and based on, circumstances and matters of fact existing and known to us on the date of this
opinion letter. 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:
2.1 | The
Plan has been or will be authorised and duly executed and unconditionally delivered by or
on behalf of all relevant parties in accordance with all relevant laws (other than, with
respect to the Company, the laws of the Cayman Islands). |
| |
2.2 | The
Plan is, or will be, legal, valid, binding and enforceable against all relevant parties in
accordance with its terms under the laws of the State of New York (the “Relevant
Law”) and all other relevant laws (other than, with respect to the Company, the
laws of the Cayman Islands). |
| |
2.3 | The
choice of the Relevant Law as the governing law of the Plan has been made in good faith and
would be regarded as a valid and binding selection which will be upheld by the courts of
the State of New York 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 | 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. |
| |
2.5 | All
signatures, initials and seals are genuine. |
| |
2.6 | The
capacity, power, authority and legal right of all parties under all relevant laws and regulations
(other than, with respect to the Company, the laws and regulations of the Cayman Islands)
to enter into, execute, unconditionally deliver and perform their respective obligations
under the Plan. |
| |
2.7 | There
is nothing contained in the minute book or corporate records of the Company (which we have
not inspected) which would or might affect the opinions set out below. |
| |
2.8 | 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. |
| |
2.9 | The
Company will receive money or money’s worth in consideration for the issue of the Shares
and none of the Shares will be issued for less than their par value. |
Save
as aforesaid we have not been instructed to undertake and have not undertaken any further enquiry or due diligence in relation to the
transaction the subject of this opinion.
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
Shares to be offered and issued by the Company pursuant to the provisions of the Plan, have
been duly authorised for issue, and when issued by the Company pursuant to the provisions
of the Plan for the consideration fixed thereto and duly registered in the Company’s
register of members (shareholders), will be validly issued and (assuming that all of the
consideration is received by the Company) will be fully paid and non-assessable. |
The
opinions expressed above are subject to the following qualifications:
4.1 | The
obligations assumed by the Company under the Documents 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) | 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; and |
| | |
| (d) | 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. |
4.2 | 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. |
| |
4.3 | Under
Cayman Islands law, the register of members (shareholders) is prima facie evidence
of title to shares and this register would not record a third party interest in such shares.
However, there are certain limited circumstances where an application may be made to a Cayman
Islands court for a determination on whether the register of members reflects the correct
legal position. Further, the Cayman Islands court has the power to order that the register
of members maintained by a company should be rectified where it considers that the register
of members does not reflect the correct legal position. As far as we are aware, such applications
are rarely made in the Cayman Islands and for the purposes of the opinion given in paragraph
3.2, there are no circumstances or matters of fact known to us on the date of this opinion
letter which would properly form the basis for an application for an order for rectification
of the register of members of the Company, but if such an application were made in respect
of the Class A Ordinary Shares, then the validity of such shares may be subject to re-examination
by a Cayman Islands court. |
| |
4.4 | In
this opinion letter the phrase “non-assessable” means, with respect to the issuance
of shares, that a shareholder shall not, in respect of the relevant shares and in the absence
of a contractual arrangement, or an obligation pursuant to the memorandum and articles of
association, to the contrary, have any obligation to make further contributions to the Company’s
assets (except in exceptional circumstances, such as involving fraud, the establishment of
an agency relationship or an illegal or improper purpose or other circumstances in which
a court may be prepared to pierce or lift the corporate veil). |
We
hereby consent to the filing of this opinion letter as an exhibit to the Registration Statement and to the references to our firm under
the headings “Indemnification of Directors and Officers” in the prospectus included in the Registration Statement. In providing
our consent, we do not thereby admit that we are in the category of persons whose consent is required under section 7 of the Act or the
Rules and Regulations of the Commission thereunder.
We
express no view as to the commercial terms of the 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.
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 Documents
and express no opinion or observation upon the terms of any such document.
This
opinion letter is addressed to you and may be relied upon by you, your counsel and purchasers of the Ordinary Shares pursuant to the
Registration Statement. This opinion letter is limited to the matters detailed herein and is not to be read as an opinion with respect
to any other matter.
Yours
faithfully

ESGL
Holdings Limited (the “Company”)
I,
the undersigned, being a director of the Company, am aware that you are being asked to provide an opinion letter (the “Opinion”)
in relation to certain aspects of Cayman Islands law. Unless otherwise defined herein, capitalised terms used in this certificate have
the respective meanings given to them in the Opinion. I hereby certify that:
1 | The
Memorandum and Articles remain in full force and effect and are unamended. |
| |
2 | The
Company has not entered into any mortgages or charges over its property or assets other than
those entered in the register of mortgages and charges of the Company. |
| |
3 | The
Resolutions were duly passed in the manner prescribed in the Memorandum and Articles (including,
without limitation, with respect to the disclosure of interests (if any) by directors of
the Company) and have not been amended, varied or revoked in any respect. |
| |
4 | The
authorised share capital of the Company is US$50,000 divided into 50,000,000 Ordinary Shares
of par value US$0.0001 each. |
| |
5 | The
shareholders of the Company (the “Shareholders”) have not restricted the
powers of the directors of the Company in any way. |
| |
6 | The
directors of the Company at the date of the Resolutions and at the date of this certificate
were and are as follows: Quek Leng Chuang, Anita Pushparani Dorett, Ernest Fong, Lim Boon
Yew Gary, Law Ben Hui and Yap Chin Yee Richard . |
| |
7 | The
minute book and corporate records of the Company as maintained at its registered office in
the Cayman Islands and made available to you are complete and accurate in all material respects,
and all minutes and resolutions filed therein represent a complete and accurate record of
all meetings of the Shareholders and directors (or any committee thereof) of the Company
(duly convened in accordance with the Memorandum and Articles) and all resolutions passed
at the meetings or passed by written resolution or consent, as the case may be. |
| |
8 | Prior
to, at the time of, and immediately following the approval of the transactions contemplated
by the Registration Statement, the Company was, or will be, able to pay its debts as they
fell, or fall, due and has entered, or will enter, into the transactions contemplated by
the Registration Statement for proper value and not with an intention to defraud or wilfully
defeat an obligation owed to any creditor or with a view to giving a creditor a preference. |
9 | Each
director of the Company considers the transactions contemplated by the Registration Statement
to be of commercial benefit to the Company and has acted in good faith in the best interests
of the Company, and for a proper purpose of the Company, in relation to the transactions
which are the subject of the Opinion. |
| |
10 | To
the best of my knowledge and belief, having made due inquiry, the Company is not the subject
of legal, arbitral, administrative or other proceedings in any jurisdiction and neither the
directors nor Shareholders have taken any steps to have the Company struck off or placed
in liquidation. Further, no steps have been taken to wind up the Company or to appoint restructuring
officers or interim restructuring officers, and no receiver has been appointed in relation
to any of the Company’s property or assets. |
| |
11 | To
the best of my knowledge and belief, having made due inquiry, there are no circumstances
or matters of fact existing which may properly form the basis for an application for an order
for rectification of the register of members of the Company. |
| |
12 | The
Registration Statement has been, or will be, authorised and duly executed and delivered by
or on behalf of all relevant parties in accordance with all relevant laws. |
| |
13 | No
invitation has been made or will be made by or on behalf of the Company to the public in
the Cayman Islands to subscribe for any of the Shares. |
| |
14 | The
Shares to be issued pursuant to the Registration Statement have been, or will be, duly registered,
and will continue to be registered, in the Company’s register of members (shareholders). |
| |
15 | The
Company is not a central bank, monetary authority or other sovereign entity of any state
and is not a subsidiary, direct or indirect, of any sovereign entity or state. |
| |
16 | There
is no contractual or other prohibition or restriction (other than as arising under Cayman
Islands law) binding on the Company prohibiting or restricting it from entering into and
performing its obligations under the Documents. |
(Signature

I
confirm that you may continue to rely on this certificate as being true and correct on the day that you issue the Opinion unless I shall
have previously notified you personally to the contrary.
