Re: Registration Statement on Form S-8
----------------------------------
Ladies and Gentlemen:
We have assisted Trio-Tech International, a California corporation (the
"Company"), in connection with the registration under the Securities Act of
1933, as amended (the "Act"), of an additional 150,000 shares of the Company's
Common Stock, no par value (the "Shares"), issuable under the Company's
Directors Stock Option Plan (the "Plan"), pursuant to the Company's Registration
Statement on Form S-8 (the "Registration Statement") to be filed with the
Securities and Exchange Commission (the "Commission").
In rendering the opinions hereinafter expressed, we have made such legal
and factual examinations and inquiries, including an examination of originals or
copies certified or otherwise identified to our satisfaction as being true
reproductions of originals, of all such documents, records, agreements and other
instruments, including the Registration Statement, as we have deemed necessary
and appropriate for the purpose of this opinion.
Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, in our examination, we
have assumed without independent verification that (i) each of the parties
thereto has duly and validly executed and delivered each instrument, document,
and agreement to which such party is a signatory, (ii) each natural person
executing any such instrument, document, or
September 28, 2001
Page 2
agreement is legally competent to do so, (iii) all documents submitted to us as
originals are authentic, the signatures on all documents that we examined are
genuine, and all documents submitted to us as certified, conformed, photostatic
or facsimile copies conform to the original document, and (iv) all corporate
records made available to us by the Company are accurate and complete.
Based upon the foregoing, and having regard to legal considerations and
other information that we deem relevant, we are of the opinion that the Shares
have been duly authorized and, when and to the extent Shares are issued and sold
in accordance with the Plan, such Shares will be validly issued, fully paid and
non-assessable.
We express no opinion herein as to the laws of any state or jurisdiction
other that the laws of the State of California and the federal laws of the
United States of America.
We hereby consent to the filing of this opinion as an exhibit to the
Registration Statement and the reference to this firm therein. In giving this
consent, we do not admit that we are in the category of persons whose consent is
required under Section 7 of the Act or the rules and regulations of the
Commission promulgated thereunder.
Very truly yours,
