Ladies and Gentlemen:

 

We have acted as counsel to PMGC Holdings Inc., a Nevada corporation (the “Company”), in connection with the filing of a registration statement on Form S-3 (the “Registration Statement”) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). The Registration Statement relates to the offer and sale by the Company, from time to time pursuant to Rule 415 under the Securities Act, of (i) common stock, par value $0.0001 per share, of the Company (the “Common Stock”); (ii) preferred stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Preferred Stock”) (iii) warrants to purchase Common Stock (the “Warrants”); (iv) units consisting of any combination of Common Stock or Warrants (the “Units”); (v) rights to purchase Common Stock (the “Rights”); and (vi) debt securities (the “Debt Securities”) having an aggregate initial public offering price not to exceed $100,000,000, in each case on terms to be determined at the time of offering by the Company. The Common Stock, Warrants, Units, Rights and Debt Securities are collectively referred to herein as the “Securities.” The Securities will be offered in amounts, at prices and on terms to be set forth in supplements to the base prospectus (collectivley, the “Prospectus”) contained in the Registration Statement.

 

In connection with this opinion, we have examined originals or copies (certified or otherwise identified to our satisfaction) of (i) the Company’s Articles of Incorporation, as currently in effect (the “Articles of Incorporation”), (ii) the Company’s Bylaws, as currently in effect (the “Bylaws”), (iii) the Registration Statement and the Prospectus and (iv) such corporate records, agreements, documents and other instruments, and such certificates or comparable documents of public officials or of officers and representatives of the Company, as we have deemed relevant and necessary as a basis for the opinion hereinafter set forth.

 

In such examination, we have assumed the genuineness of all signatures, the legal capacity of all natural persons, the authenticity of all documents submitted to us as originals, the conformity to original documents of all documents submitted to us as certified, conformed or photostatic copies, and the authenticity of the originals of such latter documents. As to certain questions of fact material to this opinion, we have relied upon certificates or comparable documents of officers and representatives of the Company and have not sought to independently verify such facts.

 

 

 

Based on the foregoing, and in reliance thereon, and subject to the qualifications, limitations, exceptions and assumptions set forth herein, we are of the opinion that:

 

1.With respect to the Common Stock, when the Common Stock has been issued and delivered either (i) in accordance with the terms of the applicable definitive agreement and upon payment of the consideration therefor provided therein or (ii) upon conversion, exchange or exercise of any security, in accordance with the terms of such security or the instrument governing such security providing for such conversion, exchange or exercise, including payment of the consideration therefor provided therein, the Common Stock will be validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable.

 

2.With respect to the Preferred Stock, including shares of Preferred Stock duly issued upon conversion, exchange or exercise of any Debt Securities, Warrants or Units, when (i) authorized for issuance by the Board of Directors or an authorized committee thereof; (ii) the applicable Certificate(s) of Designation for the class or series of Preferred Stock to be sold under the applicable prospectus supplement have been duly authorized, adopted and filed with the Secretary of State of Nevada, (iii) the terms of issuance and sale have been duly established in compliance with the Articles of Incorporation, the Bylaws and applicable law, and do not result in a default or breach of any binding agreement; (iv) the shares have been issued and delivered in accordance with the terms of the applicable definitive agreement and upon payment of the consideration therefor; and (v) issued upon conversion, exchange or exercise of any security in accordance with its terms, including payment of the consideration therefor, the Preferred Stock will be validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable.

 

3.With respect to the Warrants, when the Warrants have been duly executed and countersigned in accordance with the Warrant Agreement and issued and delivered in accordance with the terms of the applicable definitive agreement upon payment of the consideration therefor provided therein, such Warrants will constitute valid and binding obligations of the Company, enforceable against the Company in accordance with their terms except that such enforceability may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights in general and the remedies of specific performance and injunctive and other forms of injunctive relief may be subject to equitable defenses.

 

4.With respect to the Units, when the Units have been duly executed and countersigned in accordance with the unit agreement and issued and delivered in accordance with the terms of the applicable definitive agreement upon payment of the consideration therefor provided therein, such Units will constitute valid and binding obligations of the Company, enforceable against the Company in accordance with their terms and if applicable, except that such enforceability may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights in general and the remedies of specific performance and injunctive and other forms of injunctive relief may be subject to equitable defenses, if applicable.

 

5.With respect to the Rights, when the Rights have been duly issued and delivered in accordance with the terms of the applicable definitive agreement upon payment of the consideration therefor provided therein, such Rights will constitute valid and binding obligations of the Company, enforceable against the Company in accordance with their terms, except that such enforceability may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights in general and the remedies of specific performance and injunctive and other forms of injunctive relief may be subject to equitable defenses, if applicable.

 

6.With respect to the Debt Securities, when the Debt Securities have been duly executed and countersigned in accordance with the debt agreement and issued and delivered in accordance with the terms of the applicable definitive agreement upon payment of the consideration therefor provided therein, such Debt Securities will constitute valid and binding obligations of the Company, enforceable against the Company in accordance with their terms except that such enforceability may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights in general and the remedies of specific performance and injunctive and other forms of injunctive relief may be subject to equitable defenses.

 

We express no opinion herein as to the laws of any state or jurisdiction other than Chapter 78 of the Nevada Revised Statutes (including the statutory provisions and all applicable judicial decisions interpreting those laws) and the federal laws of the United States of America.

 

This opinion speaks only as of the date hereof and we assume no obligation to update or supplement this opinion if any applicable laws change after the date of this opinion or if we become aware after the date of this opinion of any facts, whether existing before or arising after the date hereof, that might change the opinions expressed above.
