Ladies
and Gentlemen:
We
have
acted as special counsel to Hub Group, Inc. (the “Company”) in connection with
the registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, of 1,000,000
shares of its Common Stock, $.01 par value (the “Shares”), to be offered
pursuant to the Hub Group, Inc. 2002 Long-Term Incentive Plan (the
“Plan”). In connection therewith, we have examined or are otherwise
familiar with the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation, the Company’s By-Laws,
the Plan, the Company’s Registration Statement on Form S-8 (the “Registration
Statement”) relating to the Shares, relevant resolutions of the Board of
Directors of the Company, and such other documents and instruments as we have
deemed necessary for the purposes of this opinion.
Based
upon the foregoing, we are of the opinion that the Shares are duly authorized
for issuance and when issued in accordance with the provisions of the Plan
will
be legally issued, fully paid and non-assessable shares of the
Company.
We
hereby
consent to the filing of this opinion as an exhibit to the Registration
Statement.
