Deutsche Bank Trust Company Americas,
 as Depositary under the Deposit Agreement
 referred to below
60 Wall Street
New York, NY 10005
United States

Ladies and Gentlemen:

     We refer to the Registration Statement on Form F-6 (the "Registration
Statement") relating to American Depositary Shares (as defined in the Deposit
Agreement) evidenced by American Depositary Receipts (as defined in the Deposit
Agreement), each American Depositary Receipt representing one share of Genesis
Lease Limited (the "Company"). Terms used herein and not defined herein shall
have the meanings assigned to them in the Form of Deposit Agreement appearing as
Exhibit (a) to the Registration Statement (the "Deposit Agreement").

     In rendering the opinions set forth herein, we have assumed that (i) the
Deposit Agreement will have been duly authorized, executed and delivered by the
Company and will constitute a valid and legally binding obligation of the
Company enforceable against it in accordance with its terms, (ii) the relevant
Deposited Securities will have been duly deposited with a Custodian under and in
accordance with all applicable laws and regulations, (iii) that the choice of
New York law contained in the Deposit Agreement is legal and valid under the
laws of Bermuda and (iv) that insofar as any obligation under the Deposit
Agreement is to be performed in, or by a party organized under the laws of, any
jurisdiction outside of the United States of America, its performance will not
be illegal or ineffective in any jurisdiction by virtue of the law of that
jurisdiction.

     Based upon and subject to the foregoing, we are of the opinion that the
American Depositary Shares covered by the Registration Statement, when evidenced
by Receipts that are duly executed and delivered by the Depositary and issued in
accordance with the terms of the Deposit Agreement, will be validly issued and
will entitle the registered holders thereof to the rights specified in the
Deposit Agreement and those Receipts.

     The foregoing opinion is limited to the federal laws of the United States
and the laws of the State of New York and we express no opinion as to the laws
of any other jurisdiction.

     We hereby consent to the use of this opinion as Exhibit (d) to the
Registration

Solicitors and Registered Foreign Lawyers. A list of White & Case partners is
