Sprint Corporation Motorola, Inc. Re: Interactive Network, Inc. Mesdames and Gentlemen: This opinion is furnished to you pursuant to Section 5 of the Exchange Agreement, dated as of April 15, 1999, between you and Interactive Network, Inc. (the "Company"). We have examined originals or copies of the following documents (the "Documents"): (i) Exchange Agreement dated as of April 15, 1999, between you and the Company (the "Exchange Agreement"); (ii) Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation of the Company, filed on November 14, 1991 with the California Secretary of State, and Certificate of Amendment of Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation of the Company, filed on May 26, 1995 with the California Secretary of State; (iii) Resolutions of Board of Directors of the Company, dated December 16, 1998, and resolutions of Executive Committee of Board of Directors of the Company, dated March 26, 1999; and (iv) Order confirming the Company's Chapter 11 plan of reorganization, filed on April 12, 1999, by the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Northern District of California (the "Order"). Unless otherwise defined herein, terms defined in the Documents shall have the same meanings herein. In addition, we have examined such records, documents, certificates of public officials and of the Company, made such inquiries of officials of the Company, and considered such questions of law as we have deemed necessary for the purpose of rendering the opinions set forth herein. We have assumed the genuineness of all signatures and the authenticity of all items submitted to us as originals and the conformity with originals of all items submitted to us as copies. In making our examination of the Documents, we have assumed that each party to one or more of the Documents other than the Company has the power and authority to execute and deliver, and to perform and observe the provisions of the Documents, and has duly authorized, executed and delivered such Documents, and that such Documents constitute the legal, valid and binding obligations of such party. Our opinion in paragraph (a) below as to the good standing of the Company is based solely upon a certificate of public officials in the state named in that paragraph. Our opinion in paragraph (d) below with respect to preemptive rights is based upon the assumption that by executing that certain Mutual Release and Settlement Agreement, dated as of July 10, 1998, between you and the Company (the "Settlement Agreement"), and by executing the Exchange Agreement, Tele-Communications, Inc. has relinquished any preemptive right it may have under Section 10 of that certain Amended and Restated Stock Purchase Agreement, dated as of June 4, 1993, between TCI Development Corporation and the Company. Whenever our opinion herein with respect to the existence or absence of facts is indicated to be based on our knowledge, it is intended to signify that, in the course of our representation of the Company, none of Adam Lewis, Ellen Borgersen, Darryl Rains, Marshall Small or David Goldenberg has acquired actual knowledge of the existence or absence of such facts. We have not undertaken any independent investigation to determine the existence or absence of such facts, and no inference as to our knowledge of the existence or absence of such facts should be drawn from the fact of our representation of the Company. The opinions hereinafter expressed are subject to the following further qualifications and exceptions: (1) Other than the effect of the Order on the Settlement Agreement, the effect of bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, arrangement, moratorium or other similar laws relating to or affecting the rights of creditors generally, including, without limitation, laws relating to fraudulent transfers or conveyances, preferences and equitable subordination. (2) Limitations imposed by general principles of equity upon the availability of equitable remedies or the enforcement of provisions of the Documents; and the effect of judicial decisions which have held that certain provisions are unenforceable where their enforcement would violate the implied covenant of good faith and fair dealing, or would be commercially unreasonable. (3) We express no opinion as to the effect on the opinions expressed herein of (1) the compliance or non-compliance of any party to the Documents (other than the Company) with any laws or regulations applicable to it, or (2) the legal or regulatory status or the nature of the business of any such party. Based upon and subject to the foregoing, we are of the opinion that: (a) The Company is a corporation duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the State of California. (b) The Company has the corporate power and authority to execute and deliver, and to perform and observe the provisions of, the Exchange Agreement. (c) The Exchange Agreement has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by the Company. The Exchange Agreement constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligation of the Company enforceable against the Company in accordance with its terms. (d) The shares of Common Stock of the Company issued to you by the Company pursuant to the Exchange Agreement are duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable, free of any liens and to our knowledge, after due investigation, subject to no-preemptive rights. We express no opinion as to matters governed by any laws other than the substantive laws of the State of California and federal laws of the United States (without reference to choice-of-law rules), which are in effect on the date hereof. This opinion is solely for your benefit and may not be relied upon by, nor may copies be delivered to, any other person without our prior written consent.
