The Company has filed in a timely manner all documents that the Company was required to file with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) under Sections 13, 14(a) and 15(d) the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), since becoming subject to the requirements of the Exchange Act (the foregoing documents (together with any documents filed by the Company under the Exchange Act, whether or not required) being collectively referred to herein as the “SEC Documents”). As of their respective filing dates (or, if amended prior to the date of this Agreement, when amended), all SEC Documents complied in all material respects with the requirements of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations of the Commission promulgated thereunder. None of the SEC Documents as of their respective dates contained any untrue statement of material fact or omitted to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements made therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.

8

The Company shall have obtained or filed, as applicable, in a timely fashion any and all consents, permits, approvals, registrations, waivers and notifications necessary for consummation of the purchase and sale of the Shares (including, without limitation, any notifications required pursuant to the rules and regulations of applicable Trading Markets, and except for such as may be properly obtained or filed subsequent to the Closing), all of which shall be and remain so long as necessary in full force and effect.
SECTION 8. BROKER’S FEE.
     The Company and the Purchaser hereby represent that there are no brokers or finders entitled to compensation in connection with the sale of the Shares, and shall indemnify each other for any such fees for which they are responsible.
SECTION 9. INDEMNIFICATION.
     9.1 Indemnification by the Company. The Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Purchaser and each Person, if any, who controls the Purchaser within the meaning of the Securities Act (each, an “Indemnified Party”), against any losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses, joint or several, to which such Indemnified Party may become subject under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act, or any other federal or state statutory law or regulation, or at common law or otherwise (including in settlement of any litigation, if such settlement is effected with the written consent of the Company), insofar as such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses (or actions in respect thereof as contemplated below) arise out of or are based in whole or in part on any inaccuracy in the representations and warranties of the Company contained in this Agreement or any failure of the Company to perform its obligations hereunder, and will reimburse each Indemnified Party for any legal and other expenses reasonably incurred as such expenses are reasonably incurred by such Indemnified Party in connection with investigating, defending, settling, compromising or paying any such loss, claim, damage, liability, expense or action, provided that any claim for indemnification under this Section 9.1 relating to any inaccuracy in the representations and warranties of the Company contained in this Agreement is made within one year from the Closing. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company will not be

12


 

liable in any such case to the extent that any such loss, claim, damage, liability or expense arises out of or is based upon (a) the failure of such Indemnified Party to comply with the covenants and agreements contained in Section 6 above respecting sale of the Shares, or (b) the inaccuracy of any representations made by such Indemnified Party herein.
     9.2 Indemnification by Purchaser. The Purchaser shall indemnify and hold harmless the Company, each of its directors, and each Person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of the Securities Act, against any losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses to which the Company, each of its directors or each of its controlling Persons may become subject, under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act, or any other federal or state statutory law or regulation, or at common law or otherwise (including in settlement of any litigation, if such settlement is effected with the written consent of the Purchaser) insofar as such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses (or actions in respect thereof as contemplated below) arise out of or are based upon (a) any failure by the Purchaser to comply with the covenants and agreements contained in Section 6 above respecting the sale of the Shares unless such failure by the Purchaser is directly caused by the Company’s failure to provide written notice to the Purchaser of a suspension of any registration statement with respect to the resale of the Shares or (b) the inaccuracy of any representation made by the Purchaser herein, in each case to the extent, and will reimburse the Company, each of its directors, and each of its controlling Persons for any legal and other expense reasonably incurred, as such expenses are reasonably incurred by the Company, each of its directors, and each of its controlling Persons in connection with investigating, defending, settling, compromising or paying any such loss, claim, damage, liability, expense or action, provided that any claim for indemnification under this Section 9.2 relating to the inaccuracy of any made by the Purchaser herein is made within one year from the Closing. In no event shall the liability of the Purchaser hereunder be greater in amount than the dollar amount of the net proceeds received by the Purchaser upon the sale of the Shares giving rise to such indemnification claim.
SECTION 10. ACCESS TO INFORMATION.
     From the date hereof until the Closing, the Company will make reasonably available to the Purchaser’s representatives, consultants and their respective counsels for inspection, such information and documents as the Purchaser reasonably requests, and will make available at reasonable times and to a reasonable extent officers and employees of the Company to discuss the business and affairs of the Company.
SECTION 11. USE OF PURCHASER’S NAME.

RE: Cardica, Inc.
Ladies and Gentlemen:
We have acted as counsel for Cardica, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), in connection with the issuance and sale of up to 1,249,541 shares (the “Shares”) of the Company’s common stock, $0.001 par value per share (the “Common Stock”), to Intuitive Surgical Operations, Inc. under the Stock Purchase Agreement dated as of August 16, 2010 (the “Purchase Agreement”). We are rendering this opinion pursuant to Section 7.3 of the Purchase Agreement. Except as otherwise defined herein, capitalized terms used but not defined herein have the respective meanings given to them in the Purchase Agreement.
In connection with this opinion, we have examined and relied upon the representations and warranties as to factual matters contained in and made pursuant to the Purchase Agreement by the various parties and originals or copies certified to our satisfaction, of such records, documents, certificates, opinions, memoranda and other instruments as in our judgment are necessary or appropriate to enable us to render the opinion expressed below.
As to certain factual matters, we have relied upon certificates of officers of the Company and have not sought to independently verify such matters. Where we render an opinion “to our knowledge” or concerning an item “known to us” or “of which we are aware” or our opinion otherwise refers to our knowledge, it is based solely upon (i) an inquiry of attorneys within this firm who have represented the Company in this transaction, (ii) receipt of a certificate executed by an officer of the Company covering such matters and (iii) such other investigation, if any, that we specifically set forth herein.
In rendering this opinion, we have assumed: the authenticity of all documents submitted to us as originals; the conformity to originals of all documents submitted to us as copies; the accuracy, completeness and authenticity of certificates of public officials; the due authorization, execution and delivery of all documents (except the due authorization, execution and delivery by the Company of the Purchase Agreement and the Registration Rights Agreement (together, the “Transaction Documents”)), where authorization, execution and delivery are prerequisites to the effectiveness of such documents; and the genuineness and authenticity of all signatures on original documents (except the signatures on behalf of the Company on the Transaction Documents). We have also assumed: that all individuals executing and delivering documents had the legal capacity to so execute and deliver; that the Transaction Documents are obligations binding upon the parties thereto other than the Company; that the parties to the

Transaction Documents other than the Company have filed any required California franchise or income tax returns and have paid any required California franchise or income taxes; and that there are no extrinsic agreements or understandings among the parties to the Transaction Documents or the Material Agreements (as defined below) that would modify or interpret the terms of any of the Transaction Documents or the Material Agreements or the respective rights or obligations of the parties thereunder.
Our opinion is expressed only with respect to the federal laws of the United States of America and the laws of the States of California and the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware.
We express no opinion as to whether the laws of any particular jurisdiction apply, no opinion to the extent that the laws of any jurisdiction other than those identified above are applicable to the subject matter hereof and no opinion as to the enforceability of any liquidated damages provisions in the Transaction Documents.
We are not rendering any opinion as to any statute, rule, regulation, ordinance, decree or decisional law relating to antitrust, banking, land use, environmental, pension, employee benefits, tax, fraudulent conveyance or usury, laws governing the legality of investments for regulated entities, Regulations T, U or X of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System, local laws, any law, rules or regulations relating to the clinical development, manufacture, distribution or sale of medical device products or the bylaws, rules or regulations of the Financial Industry Regulatory Association (“FINRA”). Furthermore, we express no opinion with respect to compliance with antifraud laws, rules or regulations relating to securities or the offer and sale thereof; compliance with fiduciary duties by the Company’s Board of Directors or stockholders; compliance with safe harbors for disinterested Board of Director or stockholder approvals; compliance with state securities or blue sky laws except as specifically set forth below; compliance with the Investment Company Act of 1940; or compliance with laws that place limitations on corporate distributions.
With regard to our opinion in paragraphs 1 and 3 below with respect to the good standing and due qualification as the case may be, of the Company, we have relied solely upon certificates of the Secretaries of State of the indicated jurisdictions as of a recent date.
With regard to our opinion in paragraph 7 below concerning defaults under and any material breaches of any Material Agreement, we have relied solely upon (i) inquiries of officers of the Company and (ii) an examination of the contracts filed by the Company in its SEC Documents, a list of which is attached hereto as Schedule A (the “Material Agreements”), in the form provided to us by the Company. We have made no further investigation. Further, with regard to our opinions in paragraphs 6 and 7 below concerning Material Agreements, we express no opinion as to (i) financial covenants or similar provisions therein requiring financial calculations or determinations to ascertain compliance, (ii) provisions therein relating to the occurrence of a “material adverse event” or words of similar import or (iii) any statement or writing that may constitute parol evidence bearing on interpretation or construction. To the extent that laws other than those of California govern any of the Material Agreements, we assume that the Material Agreements would be interpreted in accordance with their plain meaning.

With regard to our opinion in paragraph 8 below with respect to pending or overtly threatened litigation, we have made an inquiry of the attorneys within this firm who have represented the Company in this transaction, examined and relied upon a certificate executed by an officer of the Company covering such matters and checked the records of this firm to ascertain that we are not acting as counsel of record for the Company in any such matter. We have made no further investigation.
With regard to our opinion in paragraph 10 below, we have assumed the following: (a) that the representations made by the Purchaser in the Purchase Agreement are true and correct; (b) that neither the Company nor any person acting on behalf of the Company has offered or sold the Shares by any form of general solicitation or general advertising within the meaning of Rule 502(c) of Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act; and (c) that there will be no offerings or sales of securities of the Company before or after the date hereof in a transaction that can be “integrated” with any sales of the Shares.
With regard to our opinion in paragraph 11 below, we have based our opinion, to the extent we consider appropriate, on Rule 3a-8 under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “Investment Company Act”), the No-Action Letter of the Commission (Ref. No. 20077121115) responding to the letter, dated July 12, 2007, to the Commission submitted on our behalf, and a certificate of officers of the Company as to compliance with each of the requirements necessary to comply with Rule 3a-8. We have conducted no further investigation.
On the basis of the foregoing, in reliance thereon and with the foregoing qualifications, we are of the opinion that:
1.   The Company has been duly incorporated and is a validly existing corporation in good standing under the laws of the State of Delaware.
 
2.   The Company has the requisite corporate power to own, lease and operate its property and assets, and to conduct its business as described in the SEC Documents.
 
3.   The Company is duly qualified to do business as a foreign corporation and is in good standing under the laws of the State of California.
 
4.   The Company has the requisite corporate power to execute, deliver and perform its obligations under the Transaction Documents, including, without limitation, to issue, sell and deliver the Shares under the Purchase Agreement.
 
5.   All corporate action on the part of the Company necessary for the authorization, execution and delivery of the Transaction Documents by the Company, the authorization, sale, issuance and delivery of the Shares and the performance by the Company of its obligations to be performed at the Closing under the Transaction Documents has been taken. Each of the Transaction Documents has been duly and validly authorized, executed and delivered by the Company and each such agreement constitutes a valid and binding agreement of the Company enforceable against the Company in accordance with its respective terms, except that we express no opinion as

    to the validity of rights to indemnity and contribution under section 9 of the Purchase Agreement and section 5 of the Registration Rights Agreement and except as such enforceability may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent conveyance, reorganization, arrangement, moratorium or other similar laws affecting creditors’ rights generally, and subject to general equity principles and to limitations on availability of equitable relief, including specific performance.
 
6.   The Company’s authorized capital stock consists of (a) forty-five million (45,000,000) shares of Common Stock, par value $0.001 and (b) five million (5,000,000) shares of Preferred Stock, par value $0.001. The Shares have been duly authorized and, when issued, sold and delivered against payment therefor in accordance with the terms of the Purchase Agreement, will be validly issued, outstanding, fully paid and nonassessable and free of any pre-emptive right or similar rights contained in the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation or Bylaws or any Material Agreement.
 
7.   The execution and delivery of the Transaction Documents and the issuance of the Shares pursuant thereto do not violate any provision of the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation or Bylaws, do not constitute a default under or a material breach of any Material Agreement and do not (a) violate any governmental statute, rule or regulation which in our experience is typically applicable to transactions of the nature contemplated by the Transaction Documents or (b) violate any order, writ, judgment, injunction, decree, determination or award which has been entered against the Company and of which we are aware, except, with respect to clauses (a) and (b), where such violation would not materially and adversely affect the Company.
 
8.   To our knowledge, other than as set forth in the Schedule of Exceptions, there is no action, proceeding or investigation pending or overtly threatened against the Company before any court or administrative agency that questions the validity of the Transaction Documents or that could reasonably be expected to result, either individually or in the aggregate, in a material adverse effect on the Company.
 
9.   All consents, approvals, authorizations, or orders of, and filings, registrations and qualifications with any U.S. Federal or California regulatory authority or governmental body required for the issuance of the Shares have been made or obtained, except (a) for the filing of a Form D pursuant to Securities and Exchange Commission Regulation D and (b) for the filing of the notice to be filed under California Corporations Code Section 25102.1(d).
 
10.   The offer and sale of the Shares are exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, subject to the timely filing of a Form D pursuant to Securities and Exchange Commission Regulation D.
 
11.   The Company is not, and, after giving effect to the offering and sale of the Shares and the application of the proceeds thereof, will not be an “investment company” as defined in the Investment Company Act.

12.   To our knowledge, there are no written contracts, agreements or understandings between the Company and any person granting such person the right (other than rights which have been waived in writing or otherwise satisfied) to require the Company to include any securities of the Company in any registration statement contemplated by Section 2 of the Registration Rights Agreement.
This opinion is intended solely for your benefit and is not to be made available to or be relied upon by any other person, firm, or entity without our prior written consent.
