Ladies and Gentlemen:

 

We have acted as special Nevada counsel to Nixxy, Inc., a Nevada corporation (the “Company”), in connection with the sale of 1,416,665 shares of common stock, par value of $0.0001 per share (the “Shares”), each issued pursuant to that certain securities purchase agreement dated November 20, 2024 (the “Purchase Agreement”) between the Company and the purchasers named therein.

 

This opinion is being furnished in connection with the Company’s shelf registration statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-267470) (the “Registration Statement”), as initially filed with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), on September 30, 2022, pursuant to the federal Securities Act of 1933 (the “Securities Act”), and the related prospectus contained therein, as supplemented by the prospectus supplement dated November 20, 2024 (together, the “Prospectus”).

 

This opinion letter is furnished to you at your request to enable you to fulfill the requirements of Item 601(b)(5) of SEC Regulation S-K (12 C.F.R. § 229.601(b)(5)).

 

In connection with this opinion, we have examined originals or copies, certified or otherwise identified to our satisfaction, of: (i) the Registration Statement and the Prospectus; (ii) the Purchase Agreement; (iii) the Articles of Incorporation of the Company as filed with the Secretary of State of Nevada on March 20, 2020, as amended by that certain Certificate of Change Pursuant to NRS 78.209 as filed with the Secretary of State of Nevada on June 17, 2021, as amended by that certain Certificate of Change Pursuant to NRS 78.209 as filed with the Secretary of State of Nevada on August 22, 2023, as amended by that certain Certificate of Amendment as filed with the Secretary of State of Nevada on September 3, 2024, and as amended by that certain Certificate of Amendment as filed with the Secretary of State of Nevada on September 27, 2024; (iv) the By-Laws of the Company; (v) that certain unanimous written consent of the Board of Directors of the Company dated November 19, 2024; and (vi) that certain Officer’s Certificate of the Company dated November 20, 2024. We also have examined originals or copies, certified or otherwise identified to our satisfaction, of such records of the Company and such agreements, certificates of public officials, certificates of officers or other representatives of the Company and others, and such other documents, certificates, and records as we have deemed necessary or appropriate as a basis for the opinions set forth herein.
