We have acted as special counsel to Cinedigm Corp., a Delaware corporation (the "Company"), in connection with the preparation and filing of a Registration Statement on Form S-1 (the "Registration Statement") filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, for the registration of the sale from time to time of 1,106,450 shares of Class A common stock, par value $0.001 per share, of the Company (the "Common Stock"), which includes 906,450 shares of Common Stock (the "Shares") and 200,000 shares of Common Stock (the "Warrant Shares" and, together with the Shares, the "Securities") issuable upon the exercise of warrants (the "Warrants"), of the Company by certain selling stockholders identified in the Registration Statement.. As such counsel, you have requested our opinion as to the matters described herein relating to the issuance of the Securities.
In connection with this opinion, we have examined and relied upon copies certified or otherwise identified to our satisfaction of: (i) the Registration Statement, together with exhibits and schedules thereto, in the form filed with the Commission; (ii) the Company's Fourth Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation, as amended to date; (iii) the Company's By-Laws, as amended to date; (iv) the records of corporate proceedings of the Company relating to the Shares, as made available to us by officers of the Company; (v) the Company's public securities filings; and (vi) the Warrants; and have reviewed such matters of law as we have deemed necessary or appropriate for the purpose of rendering this opinion.
For purposes of 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 certified or photostatic copies, and the authenticity of the originals of all documents submitted to us as copies. We have also assumed the legal capacity of all natural persons, the genuineness of all signatures on all documents examined by us.

Based upon and subject to the foregoing qualifications, assumptions and limitations and the further limitations set forth below, it is our opinion that the Securities are duly authorized and the Shares are, and the Warrant Shares, upon issuance in accordance with the terms of the Warrants, will be, validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable.
