We refer to the Registration Statement on Form S-8 (the “Registration Statement”) to be filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), on behalf of Cyren Ltd., a company organized under the laws of the State of Israel (the “Company”), for the purpose of registering under the Securities Act 4,600,000 of the Company’s Ordinary Shares, nominal value NIS 0.15 per share (the “Shares”), available for issuance under the Cyren Ltd. 2016 Non-Employee Director Equity Incentive Plan and the Cyren Ltd. 2016 Equity Incentive Plan (together, the “Plans”).

 

In rendering an opinion on the matters hereinafter set forth, we have assumed the authenticity of all original documents submitted to us as certified, conformed or photographic copies thereof, the genuineness of all signatures and the due authenticity of all persons executing such documents.
