after the date hereof and prior to the termination of the offering of the

herein and to be a part hereof from the date of filing such documents.
Item 4. Description of Securities.

statement are registered under Section 12 of the Securities Exchange Act of
1934, this item is inapplicable.
II-1
Item 5. Interests of Named Experts and Counsel.
The due issuance of the shares offered hereby has been passed upon
by Schnader, Harrison, Segal & Lewis.
Item 6. Indemnification of Directors and Officers.
The Company's Certificate of Incorporation contains a provision
limiting directors' liability under certain circumstances, which provides that
a director is not personally liable to the corporation or its stockholders for
monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director, except for
liability to the extent provided by applicable law (i) for any breach of a
director's duty of loyalty to the corporation or its stockholders, (ii) for
acts or omissions not in good faith or which involve intentional misconduct or
a knowing violation of law, (iii) under Section 174 of the Delaware General
Corporation Law (which deals with willful or negligent payment of unlawful
dividends or stock redemptions), or (iv) for any transaction from which the
director derived an improper personal benefit. Statutory authority for such
provision is contained in Section 102(b)(7) of the Delaware General Corporation
Law.
The Company's Bylaws provide that it shall indemnify its officers
and directors to the fullest extent permitted by the Delaware General Corpor-
ation Law against expenses, judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement
reasonably incurred by such person in connection with any legal action against
such person by reason of the fact that such person is or was a director,
officer or employee of the Company or served at the request of the Company as
an officer or director of another entity if such person acted in good faith
and in a manner such person reasonably believed to be in, or not opposed to,
the best interests of the Company and with respect to any criminal action,
such person had no reasonable cause to believe his conduct was unlawful.
Statutory authority for such indemnification is contained in Section 145 of
the Delaware General Corporation Law, which is incorporated herein by refer-
ence thereto.
II-2
Item 7. Exemption From Registration Claimed.
As no restricted securities are to be reoffered or resold pursuant
to this Registration Statement, this item is inapplicable.
Item 8. Exhibits
The exhibits required by Item 601 of Regulation S-K and this item
are included following the Exhibit Index at Page E-1, all of which are
incorporated herein by reference.
Item 9. Undertakings.
(a) The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes:
(1) File, during any period in which it offers or sells
securities, a post-effective amendment to this registration statement to:
(i) Include any additional or changed material
information on the plan of distribution;
(2) For determining liability under the Securities Act of
1933, treat each post-effective amendment as a new registration statement of
the securities being offered, and the offering of the securities at that time
to be the initial bona fide offering.
(3) File a post-effective amendment to remove from registration
any of the securities that remain unsold at the end of the offering.
II-3
The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of
determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each filing of the
registrant's annual report pursuant to section 13(a) or section 15(d) of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (and, where applicable, each filing of the
employee benefit plan's annual report pursuant to section 15(d) of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934) that is incorporated by reference in the
registration statement shall be deemed to be a new registration statement
relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities
at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.
Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the
Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling
persons of the registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise,
the registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and
Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed
in the Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for
indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the
registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling
person of the registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or pro-
ceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in
connection with the securities being registered, the registrant will, unless
in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling
precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether
such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Act
and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.

Re: Registration Statement on Form S-8
Gentlemen:
We have acted as counsel for Elcotel, Inc. ("Elcotel") in connection
with the preparation and filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission
under the Securities Act of 1933 of a Registration Statement on Form S-8
relating to shares of common stock of Elcotel (the "Shares") covered by the
1991 Stock Option Plan (the "Plan").
As counsel for Elcotel, we have examined such corporate records
and other documents of Elcotel and considered such questions of law as we have
deemed necessary or appropriate for purposes of this opinion. On the basis of
such examination, we are of the opinion that the Shares have been duly
authorized, and when duly issued against payment of the purchase price
therefor pursuant to the Plan and due exercise of the options thereunder, will
be validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable.
We hereby consent to the inclusion of this opinion as Exhibit 5 to
the Registration Statement and the reference to our Firm in Item 5 of the
Registration Statement under the caption "Interests of Named Experts and
Counsel."
Very truly yours,
/s/ Schnader, Harrison, Segal & Lewis
