Re: Viewbix Inc. Registration Statement on Form S-1
Ladies and Gentlemen:
We have acted as counsel for Viewbix Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), in connection with the preparation of a Registration Statement on Form S-1, including the prospectus constituting a part thereof (as may be amended, the “Registration Statement”), being filed by the Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), relating to the registration for resale under the Registration Statement by the selling stockholders (the “Selling Stockholders”) named in the Registration Statement of an aggregate of 5,623,432 shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (“Common Stock”) as follows (i) 1,558,398 shares of Common Stock held by the Selling Stockholders (the “Initial Shares”); (ii) 690,109 shares of Common Stock issuable to a Selling Stockholder pursuant to a securities exchange agreement (the “Securities Exchange Agreement”) (such shares of Common Stock, the “Exchange Shares”); (iii) 1,845,914 shares of Common Stock issuable upon the conversion of credit facilities entered into between the Company and certain of the Selling Stockholders (the “Credit Facilities”, and such shares of Common Stock underlying the Credit Facilities, the “Conversion Shares”); and (iv) 1,529,011 shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of warrants issued and to be issued to the Selling Stockholders (the “Warrants”, and such shares of Common Stock underlying the Warrants, the “Warrant Shares”). All share amounts in this opinion have been adjusted to reflect the 1-for-4 reverse stock split of the Company’s outstanding shares of Common Stock that was effected on July 15, 2024.
