Re: Health In Tech, Inc.

 

Dear Sirs:

 

We have acted as counsel for Health In Tech, Inc., a Nevada corporation (the “Company”) in connection with the formation of the Company. This opinion is being requested in connection with the filing of a Registration Statement on Form S-1 (File No. 333-281853), as may be amended (the “Registration Statement”), 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 offer, issuance and sale by the Company and the Selling Shareholder of the number of shares of Class A common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Common Stock”) of the Company (the “Company Shares”) specified in the Registration Statement. We understand that the Company Shares are proposed to be sold for sale to the public as described in the Registration Statement and pursuant to an underwriting agreement, substantially in the form filed as an exhibit to the Registration Statement, to be entered into by the Company and the representative (the “Underwriting Agreement”).

 

In rendering the opinion set forth below, we have examined such originals or copies, certified or otherwise identified to our satisfaction, of documents, certificates and instruments as we have deemed necessary including, but not limited to, the following “Organization Documents”:

 

1. Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation for the Company;

 

2. Bylaws for the Company;

 

3. A Nevada Good Standing Certificate for the Company; and
