Malibu, CA 90265
Gentlemen:
We have acted as counsel for JAKKS Pacific, Inc., a Delaware corporation
(the "Company"), in connection with the preparation and filing by the Company of
a registration statement on Form S-3 (the "Registration Statement"), pursuant to
Rule 462(b) under the Securities Act of 1933 (the "Act"), relating to 460,000
shares of common stock, par value $.001 per share, of the Company (the "Common
Stock"), including 60,000 such shares to be sold solely to cover
over-allotments, if any (the "Shares"), such Shares to be included in a public
offering of Common Stock, of which 2,702,500 shares were previously registered
under a registration statement on Form S-3 (Reg. No. 333-74717), which became
effective under the Act on April 27, 1999 and which is incorporated by reference
in the Registration Statement.
We have examined the Registration Statement, the Underwriting Agreement
referred to therein (the "Underwriting Agreement"), originals or copies,
certified or otherwise identified to our satisfaction, of the Company's
certificate of incorporation and by-laws, records of corporate proceedings,
including minutes of meetings and written consents of the Board of Directors and
stockholders, certificates of public officials and officers or other authorized
representatives of the Company, and such other certificates, instruments and
documents, and we have made such examination of law, as we have deemed necessary
to form the basis of the opinion expressed below. In such examination, we have
assumed the genuineness of all signatures, the authenticity of all documents
submitted to us as originals and the conformity to authentic originals of all
documents submitted to us as copies thereof.
Based on the foregoing, we are of the opinion that:
(A) The currently outstanding Shares offered by the selling
stockholders are duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and
non-assessable.
(B) The Shares offered by the Company have been duly authorized and,
when issued and sold in accordance with the terms of the Underwriting
Agreement, will be validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable.
We hereby consent to the reference to this firm in the Registration
Statement under the caption "Legal Matters" and to the filing of this opinion as
an exhibit to the Registration Statement.
Very truly yours,
/s/ FEDER, KASZOVITZ, ISAACSON,
WEBER, SKALA & BASS LLP
