Re: Registration Statement on Form F-1

 

Ladies and Gentlemen:

 

We are acting as United States counsel to Alta Global Group Limited (the “Company”) in connection with its registration statement on Form F-1 (the “Registration Statement”) filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Act”), relating to the proposed public offering of up to $15,000,000 of ordinary shares of the Company, no par value (the “Ordinary Shares”), and up to an additional $2,250,000 Ordinary Shares if the underwriters exercise their over-allotment option. The Registration Statement will also cover the offer and sale to the representative of the underwriters of warrants to purchase 5.0% of the total number of Ordinary Shares sold in the offering with an exercise price equal to 125% of the public offering price (the “Representative Warrants”). We understand that the Ordinary Shares and Representative Warrants are to be sold to the underwriters 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 and among the Company and the underwriters. This opinion letter is furnished to you at your request to enable you to fulfill the requirements of Item 601(b)(5) of Regulation S-K in connection with the Registration Statement.

 

In connection with this opinion, we have examined originals or copies, certified or otherwise identified to our satisfaction, of such documents, corporate records, certificates of public officials and other instruments as we have deemed necessary for the purposes of rendering this opinion.

 

In our examination, we have assumed the genuineness of all signatures, including endorsements, the legal capacity and competency of all natural persons, the authenticity of all documents submitted to us as originals, the conformity to original documents of all documents submitted to us as facsimile, electronic, certified or photocopy, and the authenticity of the originals of such copies. As to any facts relevant to the opinions stated herein that we did not independently establish or verify, we have relied upon statements and representations of officers and other representatives of the Company and others and of public officials. In rendering this opinion, we have relied on the opinion of K&L Gates, being filed as an exhibit to the Registration Statement, that all necessary corporate action on the part of the Company has been taken under the laws of Australia with regard to the due authorization, execution, and delivery of the Ordinary Shares and Representative Warrants.

 

Based upon, subject to and limited by the foregoing, we are of the opinion that:

 

  1. Upon the issuance of the Representative Warrants, the Representative Warrants will constitute valid and binding obligations of the Company, enforceable in accordance with their terms, subject to applicable bankruptcy, insolvency and similar laws affecting creditors’ rights generally, concepts of reasonableness and equitable principles of general applicability.

 

We also hereby consent to the reference to our firm under the caption “Legal Matters” in the prospectus which forms part of the Registration Statement. In giving this consent, we do not admit that we are within the category of persons whose consent is required under Section 7 of the Act, the rules and regulations of the Commission promulgated thereunder or Item 509 of Regulation S-K.
