We are acting as counsel to FilmOn.TV Networks Inc., a Delaware corporation (the Company), in connection with (a) the Registration Statement on Form S-1, filed on July 1, 2016 (as it may be amended, the Registration Statement), under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the Act), covering 3,750,000 shares (the Shares) of the Companys common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the Common Stock), plus an over-subscription allowance of up to 15% of the Shares, and (b) the Underwriting Agreement between the Company and Bonwick Capital Partners LLC and Network 1 Financial Securities, Inc., as representatives of the several Underwriters, relating to the Shares (the Underwriting Agreement).
We have examined the originals, or certified, conformed or reproduction copies, of all such records, agreements, instruments and documents as we have deemed relevant or necessary as the basis for the opinion hereinafter expressed. In all such examinations, we have assumed the genuineness of all signatures on originals or certified copies and the conformity to original or certified copies of all copies submitted to us as conformed or reproduction copies. As to various questions of fact relevant to such opinion, we have relied upon, and assumed the accuracy of, certificates and oral or written statements and other information of or from public officials, officers or representatives of the Company, and others.
Based upon the foregoing, and the laws of the State of Delaware, we are of the opinion that the Shares, when issued, delivered and paid for in accordance with the terms of the Underwriting Agreement, will be legally issued, fully paid, non-assessable and binding obligations of the Company under the laws of the State of Delaware.
We hereby consent to the filing of this opinion as an exhibit to the Registration Statement and to the reference to this firm under the caption Legal Matters in the prospectus forming a part of the Registration Statement.
