| Re: | Form S-8 Registration Statement |
Ladies and Gentlemen:
We have acted as counsel to Eightco Holdings Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), in connection with a registration statement on Form S-8 (the “Registration Statement”) filed by the Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) pursuant to the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), for the registration of an additional 7,500,000 shares (the “Shares”) of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Common Stock”), for issuance pursuant to the Eightco Holdings Inc. 2022 Long-Term Incentive Plan (the “Incentive Plan”).
We have participated in the preparation of the Registration Statement and have reviewed the originals or copies certified or otherwise identified to our satisfaction of all such corporate records of the Company and such other instruments and other certificates of public officials, officers and representatives of the Company and such other persons, and we have made such investigations of law, as we have deemed appropriate as a basis for the opinion expressed below.
In rendering the opinion expressed below, we have assumed the authenticity of all documents submitted to us as originals and the conformity to the originals of all documents submitted to us as copies. In addition, we have assumed and have not verified the accuracy as to factual matters of each document we have reviewed.
In rendering the opinion set forth below, we have assumed that, at the time of the issuance of the Shares, (i) the resolutions of the board of directors of the Company related to the filing of the Registration Statement, the approval of the Incentive Plan and related matters will not have been modified or rescinded; (ii) there will not have occurred any change in the law affecting the authorization, execution, delivery, validity or fully paid status of the Common Stock; (iii) the Company will receive consideration for the issuance of the Shares as required by the Incentive Plan and that is at least equal to the par value of the Common Stock; and (iv) the individual issuances, grants or awards under the Incentive Plan will be duly authorized by all necessary corporate action of the Company and duly issued, granted or awarded in accordance with the requirements of the Incentive Plan.
Based on the foregoing, and subject to the assumptions, qualifications, limitations, and exceptions set forth herein, we are of the opinion that upon the issuance of the Shares in accordance with the terms of the Incentive Plan, the Shares will be validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable.
We render this opinion only with respect to, and we express no opinion herein concerning the application or effect of the laws of any jurisdiction other than, the existing laws of the state of Delaware.
We hereby consent to the use of this opinion as a part (Exhibit 5.1) of the Registration Statement and to all references to us in the Registration Statement. In giving such consent, we do not thereby admit that we are within the category of persons whose consent is required under Section 7 of the Securities Act or the Rules and Regulations of the Commission thereunder. The opinion expressed herein is rendered on and as of the date hereof, and we assume no obligation to advise you, or to make any investigations, as to any legal developments or factual matters arising subsequent to the date hereof that might affect the opinion expressed herein.
| Very truly yours, | |
