            The following documents filed by Extended Systems Incorporated (the
"REGISTRANT") with the Securities Exchange Commission (the "COMMISSION") are
incorporated by reference into this Registration Statement:

            1.    The Registrant's Registration Statement on Form S-1 (File No.
                  333-42709), as amended (the "REGISTRATION STATEMENT"), filed
                  pursuant to the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the
                  "SECURITIES ACT"), relating to the Company's initial public
                  offering of its Common Stock (the "OFFERING").

            2.    The description of Registrant's Common Stock contained in the

                  amendment or report filed for the purpose of updating such
                  description.

            All reports and other documents filed by Registrant pursuant to
Sections 13(a), 13(c), 14 and 15(d) of the Exchange Act after the date hereof,
and prior to the filing of a post-effective amendment which indicates that all
securities offered hereunder have been sold or which de-registers all securities
then remaining unsold under this registration statement, shall be deemed to be

            Not applicable.

ITEM 5.     INTERESTS OF NAMED EXPERTS AND COUNSEL.

            Not applicable.

ITEM 6.     INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS.

            Section 145 of the Delaware General Corporation Law permits a
corporation to include in its charter documents, and in agreements between the
corporation and its directors and officers, provisions expanding the scope of
indemnification beyond that specifically provided by the current law.

                                      II-1

<PAGE>   4
            The Registrant's Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation
provides for the indemnification of directors to the fullest extent permissible
under Delaware law.

            The Registrant's Bylaws provide for the indemnification of officers,
directors and third parties acting on behalf of the Registrant if such person
acted in good faith and in a manner reasonably believed to be in and not opposed
to the best interest of the Registrant, and, with respect to any criminal action
or proceeding, the indemnified party had no reason to believe his conduct was
unlawful.

            The Registrant has entered into indemnification agreements with its
directors and executive officers, in addition to indemnification provided for in
the Registrant's Bylaws, and intends to enter into indemnification agreements
with any new directors and executive officers in the future.

ITEM 9.     UNDERTAKINGS.

            (a) The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes:

                  (1) To file, during any period in which offers or sales are
being made, a post-effective amendment to this Registration Statement to include
any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously
disclosed in the Registration Statement or any material change to such
information in the Registration Statement.

                  (2) That, for the purpose of determining any liability under
the Securities Act, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a
new Registration Statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the
offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona
fide offering thereof.

                  (3) To remove from registration by means of a post-effective
amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the
termination of the offering.

            (b) The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes
of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each filing of the
Registrant's annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or Section 15(d) of the
Exchange Act (and, where applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plan's
annual report pursuant to Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act) that is
incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement shall be deemed to be a
new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the
offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona
fide offering thereof.

            (c) Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the
Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons
of the Registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the
Registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange
Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the
Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for
indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the
Registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling
person of the Registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or
proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in
connection with the securities being registered, the Registrant will, unless in
the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent,
submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such
indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities
Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.

        RE:  REGISTRATION STATEMENT ON FORM S-8

Ladies and Gentlemen:

        We have examined the Registration Statement on Form S-8 to be filed by
you with the Securities and Exchange Commission on or about May 15, 1998 (the
"Registration Statement"), in connection with the registration under the
Securities Act of 1933, as amended, of 2,433,802 shares of your Common Stock,
$0.001 par value per share (the "Shares"). As your legal counsel, we have
examined the proceedings taken, and are familiar with the proceedings proposed
to be taken, by you in connection with the sale and issuance of the Shares.

        It is our opinion that, upon completion of the proceedings being taken
or contemplated by us, as your legal counsel, to be taken prior to the issuance
of the Shares, the Shares, when issued and sold in the manner described in the
Registration Statement and in accordance with the resolutions adopted by your
Board of Directors, will be legally and validly issued, fully-paid and
non-assessable.

        We consent to the use of this opinion as an exhibit to the Registration
Statement and further consent to the use of our name wherever appearing in the
Registration Statement and any amendments thereto.


                       Very truly yours,

                       WILSON SONSINI GOODRICH & ROSATI
                       Professional Corporation
