To the addressee set forth above:

We have acted as special counsel to CeriBell, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), in connection with the registration by the Company of 2,249,088 shares of common stock of the Company, par value $0.001 per share (the “Shares”), issuable under the CeriBell, Inc. 2024 Incentive Award Plan (the “2024 Plan”) and CeriBell, Inc. 2024 Employee Stock Purchase Plan (together with the 2024 Plan, the “Plans”).
