At your request, we have examined the Registration Statement on Form S-3ASR (File No. 333-264845) (the “Registration Statement”), including the prospectus dated May 10, 2022 included therein (the “Base Prospectus”), filed by Recursion Pharmaceuticals, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) in connection with the registration pursuant to the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Act”), of the Securities (as defined below).

The Registration Statement relates to the proposed offer and sale by the selling stockholder (the “Selling Stockholder”), from time to time, pursuant to Rule 415 under the Act, as set forth in the Registration Statement, the Base Prospectus and a prospectus supplement dated as of August 8, 2022 (the “Prospectus Supplement” and together with the Base Prospectus, the “Prospectus”), of up to an aggregate of 7,706,363 shares of the Company’s Class A common stock, $0.00001 par value per share (the “Securities”).

The Securities are to be sold from time to time as set forth in the Registration Statement and the Prospectus.

We have examined instruments, documents, certificates and records that we have deemed relevant and necessary for the basis of our opinions hereinafter expressed. In such examination, we have assumed: (a) the authenticity of original documents and the genuineness of all signatures; (b) the conformity to the originals of all documents submitted to us as copies; (c) the truth, accuracy and completeness of the information, representations and warranties contained in the instruments, documents, certificates and records we have reviewed; (d) that the Registration Statement, and any amendments thereto (including post-effective amendments), will have become effective under the Act; (e) that the Prospectus Supplement will have been filed with the Commission describing the Securities offered thereby; (f) that the Securities will be sold in compliance with applicable U.S. federal and state securities laws and in the manner stated in the Registration Statement and the Prospectus; and (g) the legal capacity of all natural persons. As to any facts material to the opinions expressed herein that were not independently established or verified, we have relied upon oral or written statements and representations of officers and other representatives of the Company.
