We have acted as counsel for RemoteMDx, Inc., a Utah corporation (the “Company”), in connection with the registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Act”), of an aggregate of up to 2,000,000 shares of the Company’s Common Stock, par value $.0001 per share, which may be issued to employees or consultants of the Company pursuant to the terms of written compensation agreements (the “Compensation Agreements”) with Company employees or consultants. The aggregate of 2,000,000 shares to be registered under the Act are referred to herein as the “Shares.”
In connection with the foregoing, we have examined originals or copies, certified or otherwise authenticated to our satisfaction, of such corporate records of the Company and other instruments and documents as we have deemed necessary as a basis for the opinion hereinafter expressed.
We express no opinion herein as to the laws of any state or jurisdiction other than the state laws of the State of Utah, the general corporate laws of the State of Utah, as applied by courts located in Utah, the applicable provisions of the Utah Constitution and the reported judicial decisions interpreting those laws, and the federal laws of the United States of America.
Based upon the foregoing and in reliance thereon, it is our opinion that the Shares described in the above-referenced Registration Statement, when issued pursuant to the terms of the Registration Statement, and the Compensation Agreements, as applicable, will be validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable.
This opinion is being furnished to you for your benefit and may not be relied upon by any other person without our prior written consent.
