RE:Registration Statement on Form S-8

 

Ladies and Gentlemen:

 

We have acted as special counsel to ToughBuilt Industries, Inc. a Nevada corporation (the “Company”), in connection with the proposed issuance by the Company of up to 1,350,000 shares of Common Stock of the Company, $0.0001 par value per share (the “Shares”), issuable under the ToughBuilt Industries, Inc. 2022 Equity Incentive Plan (the “Plan”). The Shares are included in a registration statement on Form S-8 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Act”), filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) on December 20, 2022 (the “Registration Statement”). This opinion is being furnished in connection with the requirements of Item 601(b)(5) of Regulation S-K under the Act, and no opinion is expressed herein as to any matter pertaining to the contents of the Registration Statement or related prospectus, other than as expressly stated herein with respect to the issue of the Shares

 

For purposes of rendering this opinion, we have examined the Plan, the Registration Statement, the Articles of Incorporation and the Bylaws of the Company, as amended or restated, the proceedings and other actions of the Company that provide for the issuance of the Shares, and such other documents and matters as we have deemed necessary for purposes of 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 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 who have executed documents examined by us, the genuineness of all signatures on all documents examined by us, the authority of such persons signing on behalf of the parties thereto other than the Company and the due authorization, execution and delivery of all documents by the parties thereto other than the Company. In rendering the opinion set forth below, we have assumed that certificates evidencing the Shares will be signed by the authorized officers of the Company and registered by the transfer agent and registrar and will conform to the specimen certificate for the Common Stock. In addition, we have assumed that the resolutions of the Company’s board of directors or its applicable committee authorizing the Company to issue and deliver the Shares will be in full force and effect at all times at which such Shares are issued and delivered by the Company, and that the Company will take no action inconsistent with such resolutions.

 

Based upon and subject to the foregoing, it is our opinion that the Shares, when issued, delivered and paid for in accordance with the Plan and in the manner described in the Registration Statement and the related prospectus, will be validly issued, fully paid, and non-assessable.

 

This opinion is opining upon and is limited to the Nevada Revised Statutes. We express no opinion with respect to the effect or applicability of the laws of any other jurisdiction. We assume no obligation to revise or supplement this opinion letter should the Nevada Revised Statutes be changed after the date hereof by legislative action, judicial decision, or otherwise.

 

We hereby consent to the filing of this opinion as an exhibit to the Registration Statement. In giving our consent, we do not hereby admit that we are in the category of persons whose consent is required under Section 7 of the Securities Act.

 

This opinion is rendered on, and speaks only as of, the date of this letter first written above and does not address any potential change in facts or law that may occur after the date of this opinion letter. We assume no obligation to advise you of any fact, circumstance, event, or change in the law or the facts that may hereafter be brought to our attention, whether or not such occurrence would affect or modify any of the opinions expressed herein.

 

  Very truly yours,
