RE: REGISTRATION STATEMENT ON FORM S-1
Ladies and Gentlemen:
We have examined the Registration Statement on Form S-1 originally filed by
Talk City, Inc. (the "Company") with the Securities and Exchange Commission
(the "Commission") on July 19, 1999, as thereafter amended or supplemented (the
"Registration Statement"), in connection with the registration under the
Securities Act of 1933, as amended, of $6,900,000 worth of shares of the
Company's Common Stock (the "Shares"). The Shares are to be sold by the Company
as described in the Registration Statement. As your counsel in connection with
this transaction, 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 counsel, to be taken
prior to the issuance of the Shares and upon completion of the proceedings
being taken in order to permit such transactions to be carried out in
accordance with the securities laws of the various states where required, the
Shares, when issued and sold in the manner described in the Registration
Statement and in accordance with the resolutions adopted by the Board of
Directors of the Company, will be legally and validly issued, fully paid and
non-assessable. We consent to the use of this opinion as an exhibit to said
Registration Statement, and further consent to the use of our name wherever
appearing in said Registration Statement, including the prospectus constituting
a part thereof, and in any amendment or supplement thereto.
Very truly yours,
