Brodsky Jenkens & Gilchrist A Professional Corporation 1401 McKinney Street, Suite 2700 Houston, Texas 77010 (713) 951-3300 POST-EFFECTIVE AMENDMENT NO. 1 This Post-Effective Amendment No. 1 to Registration Statement 333-70485 on Form S-8 is being filed pursuant to Rule 414 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), to reflect the new holding company organizational structure of Denbury Resources Inc. (the "Registrant"), effected in accordance with Section 251(g) of the Delaware General Corporation Law (the "DGCL") and the Registrant's status as the successor issuer to Denbury Resources Inc. as it was constituted prior to the Merger (as defined below). The holding company organizational structure was effected pursuant to an Agreement and Plan of Merger to Form Holding Company (the "Merger Agreement") among Denbury Resources Inc. as it was constituted prior to the effectuation of the new holding company structure (the "Predecessor"), the Registrant, and Denbury Onshore, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Registrant ("Onshore"). The Merger Agreement provides for the merger of the Predecessor into Onshore, with Onshore continuing as the surviving entity and as a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Registrant (the "Merger"). The Merger was consummated at 9:00 a.m. on December 29, 2003. Prior to the Merger, the Registrant was a direct, wholly-owned subsidiary of the Predecessor organized for the purpose of implementing the holding company organizational structure. Pursuant to Section 251(g) of the DGCL, stockholder approval of the Merger was not required. In connection with the Merger, the Registrant's name was changed to "Denbury Resources Inc." By virtue of the Merger, all of the Predecessor's outstanding capital stock was converted, on a share for share basis, into capital stock of the Registrant. As a result, each stockholder of the Predecessor became the owner of an identical number of shares of capital stock of the Registrant. Additionally, each treasury share of the Predecessor, including those reserved for issuance of shares under the Employee Stock Purchase Plan of the Predecessor was automatically converted into a treasury share of the Registrant. Also, each outstanding option to purchase shares of the Predecessor's common stock under the Predecessor's Amended and Restated Stock Option Plan and Director Compensation Plan was automatically converted into an option to purchase, upon the same terms and conditions, an identical number of shares of the Registrant's common stock. In accordance with Rule 414, the Registrant, as the successor issuer to the Predecessor, hereby expressly adopts Registration Statement No. 333-70485 on Form S-8 as its own for all purposes under the Securities Act and the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. This Registration Statement pertains to the Denbury Resources Inc. Amended and Restated Stock Option Plan and the Denbury Resources Inc. Employee Stock Purchase Plan. Registration fees were paid at the time of filing the original Registration Statement. 2 Part II INFORMATION REQUIRED IN THE REGISTRATION STATEMENT Item 8.

December 29, 2003 Denbury Resources Inc. 5100 Tennyson Pkwy., Ste. 3000 Plano, Texas 75024 Ladies and Gentlemen: We have acted as securities counsel to Denbury Resources Inc. (formerly Denbury Holdings, Inc.), a Delaware corporation (the "Company"), in connection with the Post-Effective Amendment No. 1 to Registration Statement No. 333-70485 on Form S-8 (the "Registration Statement"), filed by the Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "Commission") under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Act"), with respect to the Company's adoption of the Registration Statement as the successor issuer to Denbury Resources Inc., a Delaware corporation, as it was constituted prior to 9:00 a.m. EST on December 29, 2003 (the "Predecessor"), pursuant to Rule 414 of the Act. The Registration Statement covers shares of common stock, par value $.001 per share, of the Company's ("Common Stock"), that may be issued by the Company under the Predecessor's Stock Option Plan and Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the "Plans"), which Plans have been adopted and assumed by the Company. In connection therewith, we have examined and relied upon the original, or copies identified to our satisfaction, of (1) the Certificate of Incorporation, as amended, and the Bylaws, as amended, of the Company; (2) minutes and records of the corporate proceedings of the Company and the Predecessor with respect to the Plans, the issuance of the Common Stock pursuant to the Plans and related matters; (3) the Registration Statement and exhibits thereto, (4) the Plans, as amended; and (5) such other documents and instruments as we have deemed necessary for the expression of the opinions herein contained. In making the foregoing examinations, we have assumed the genuineness of all signatures and the authenticity of all documents submitted to us as originals, and the conformity Denbury Resources Inc. December 29, 2003 Page 2 to original documents of all documents submitted to us as certified or photostatic copies. As to various questions of fact material to this opinion, and as to the content of the Registration Statement, minutes, records, resolutions and other documents or writings of the Company, we have relied, to the extent deemed reasonably appropriate, upon representations or certificates of officers or directors of the Company and upon documents, records and instruments furnished to us by the Company, without independent check or verification of their accuracy. Based upon our examinations, and the consideration of, and reliance upon, the documents and other matters described above, and assuming that: (1) the Common Stock to be issued in the future under the Plans will be duly issued and sold in accordance with the terms of the Plans, and pursuant to the terms of options issued under and in accordance with the terms of the Plans, (2) the Company maintains an adequate number of authorized but unissued shares and/or treasury shares for issuance of Common Stock to be issued pursuant to options granted under the Plans, and (3) the consideration for the Common Stock issued pursuant to exercise of options issued under the Option Plan is actually received by the Company as provided in the Plans and exceeds the par value of such Common Stock, we are of the opinion that the Common Stock issued or sold in accordance with the terms of the Plans, and pursuant to options issued under and in accordance with the terms of the Plans, will be duly and validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable. The opinions expressed herein are limited to the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware, and the federal laws of the United States of America and we assume no responsibility as to the applicability thereto, or the effect thereon, of the laws of any other jurisdiction. You should be aware that this firm is not admitted to the practice of law in the State of Delaware and the opinion herein as to the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware is based solely upon unofficial compilations thereof. We hereby consent to the filing of this opinion as an exhibit to the Registration Statement and any amendments thereto and to references to us included in or made a part of the Registration Statement. In giving this consent, we do not admit that we come within the category of persons whose consent is required under Section 7 of the Securities Act or the Rules and Regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission thereunder.
