Gentlemen:
We are acting as counsel for InteliData Technologies Corporation (the
"Company") in connection with its Registration Statement on Form S-8, as filed
with the Securities and Exchange Commission, with respect to up to 1,000,000
additional shares of the Company's Common Stock to be issued by the Company (the
"Shares") pursuant to the Company's 1996 Incentive Plan (collectively, the
"Plan"). In connection with the filing of the Registration Statement, you have
requested our opinion concerning certain corporate matters.
In rendering this opinion, we have relied upon, among other things, our
examination of such records of the Company and certificates of its officers and
of public officials as we have deemed necessary.
Based upon the foregoing and the further qualifications stated below, we
are of the opinion that:
1. The Company has been duly incorporated and is validly existing and in
good standing under the laws of the State of Delaware.
2. The Shares have been duly authorized and, when such shares have been
issued in accordance with the terms of the Plan, will be legally
issued, fully paid and nonassessable.
We consent to the filing of this opinion with the Securities and Exchange
Commission as an exhibit to the Form S-8. In giving this consent, we do not
admit that we are within the category of persons whose consent is required by
section 7 of the Securities Act of 1933 or the rules and regulations promulgated
thereunder by the Securities and Exchange Commission.
Very truly yours,
/s/ Hunton & Williams
