Re:Long Island Iced Tea Corp.

 

Ladies and Gentlemen:

 

You have requested our opinion with respect to certain matters in connection with the sale by Long Island Iced Tea Corp., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), of up to 1,769,231 shares (the “Shares”) of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (including up to 230,769 that may be sold pursuant to the exercise of an over-allotment option granted by the Company to the underwriters), pursuant to the Registration Statement on Form S-1 (File No. 333-210669) (the “Registration Statement”) initially filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Act”), on April 8, 2016, as amended. We understand that the Shares are to be sold to the underwriters for resale to the public 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 (the “Underwriting Agreement”).

 

In connection with this opinion, we have examined and relied upon the Registration Statement and the originals or copies certified to our satisfaction of such other documents, records, certificates, memoranda and other instruments as in our judgment are necessary or appropriate to enable us to render the opinion expressed below. With your consent, we have relied upon certificates and other assurances of officers of the Company as to factual matters without having independently verified such factual matters. We have assumed the genuineness and authenticity of all documents submitted to us as originals, and the conformity to originals of all documents submitted to us as copies thereof and the due execution and delivery of all documents where due execution and delivery are a prerequisite to the effectiveness thereof.
