shares, of the Corporation's Common Stock. Robert A. Goodman, the senior
partner of such firm, is a member of the Board of Directors and the Secretary
of the Corporation.
ITEM 6. INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS.
Section 145 of the Delaware General Corporation Law, under which law
the Registrant is incorporated, grants corporations the power to indemnify
their directors, officers, employees and agents in accordance with the
provisions therein set forth. The provisions governing the indemnification by
the Registrant of its directors, officers, employees and agents are set forth
in Article ELEVENTH of the Registrant's Restated Certificate of Incorporation.
Paragraph A of Article ELEVENTH provides in part as follows:
A. The Corporation (1) shall indemnify any person who is or
was a director or officer of the Corporation, and (2) may, in the
discretion of the Board of Directors, indemnify any person who is or
was an employee or agent of the Corporation, where such director,
officer, employee or agent was or is a party or is threatened to be
made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or
proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative
(other than an action by or in the right of the Corporation) by reason
of the fact that he is or was a director, officer, employee or agent
of the Corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the
Corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another
corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise,
against expenses (including attorneys' fees), judgments, fines and
amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by him in
connection with such action, suit or proceeding if he acted in good
faith and in a manner he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed
to the best interests of the Corporation, and with respect to any
criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe his
conduct was unlawful.
Paragraphs B, C, D and E of Article ELEVENTH provide as follows:
B. The Corporation (1) shall indemnify any person who is or
was a director or officer of the Corporation, and (2) may, in the
discretion of the Board of Directors, indemnify any person who is or
was an employee or agent of the Corporation, where such director,
officer, employee or agent was or is a party or is threatened to be
made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action or suit by
or in the right of the Corporation to procure a judgment in its favor
by reason of the fact that he is or was a director, officer, employee
or agent of the Corporation, or is or was serving at the request of
the Corporation as director, officer, employee or agent of another
corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise
against expenses (including attorneys' fees) actually and reasonably
incurred by him in connection with the defense or settlement
4
<PAGE> 5
of such action or suit if he acted in good faith and in a manner he
reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of
the Corporation and except that no indemnification shall be made in
respect of any claim, issue or matter as to which such person shall
have been adjudged to be liable to the Corporation unless and only to
the extent that the Court of Chancery or the court in which such
action or suit was brought shall determine upon application that,
despite the adjudication of liability but in view of all the
circumstances of the case, such person is fairly and reasonably
entitled to indemnity for such expenses which the Court of Chancery or
such other court shall deem proper.
C. To the extent that a director, officer, employee or agent
of the Corporation has been successful on the merits or otherwise in
defense of any action, suit or proceeding referred to in Paragraph A
or B of this Article ELEVENTH, or in the defense of any claim, issue
or matter therein, he shall be indemnified against expenses (including
attorneys' fees) actually and reasonably incurred by him in connection
therewith.
D. Any indemnification under Paragraph A or B of this Article
ELEVENTH (unless ordered by a court) shall be made by the Corporation
only as authorized in the specific case upon a determination that
indemnification of the director, officer, employee or agent is proper
in the circumstances because he has met the applicable standards of
conduct set forth in Paragraph A and B of this Article ELEVENTH. Such
determination shall be made (1) by the Board of Directors by a
majority vote of a quorum consisting of directors who were not parties
to such action, suit or proceeding, or (2) if such quorum is not
obtainable, or, even if obtainable a quorum of disinterested directors
so directs, by independent legal counsel in a written opinion, or (3)
by the stockholders.
E. Expenses incurred in defending a civil or criminal action,
suit or proceeding may be paid by the Corporation in advance of the
final disposition of such action, suit or proceeding upon receipt of
an undertaking by or on behalf of the director, officer, employee or
agent to repay such amount if it shall ultimately be determined that
he is entitled to be indemnified by the Corporation as authorized in
this Article ELEVENTH.
Paragraph F of Article ELEVENTH provides in part as follows:
F. The indemnification and advancement of expenses provided
by this Article ELEVENTH shall not be deemed exclusive of any other
rights to which those seeking indemnification or advancement of
expenses may be entitled under any By-law, agreement, vote of
stockholders or disinterested directors or otherwise, both as to
action in his official capacity and as to action in another capacity
while holding such office, and shall continue as to a person who has
ceased to be a director, officer, employee or agent and shall inure to
the benefit of the heirs, executors and administrators of such a
person.
The Registrant maintains and pays the premium on contracts insuring
the Registrant (with certain exclusions) against any liability to directors and
5
<PAGE> 6
officers it may incur under the above indemnity provisions and insuring each
director and officer of the Registrant (with certain exclusions) against
liability and expense, including legal fees, which he may incur by reason of
his relationship to the Registrant, even if the Registrant does not have the
obligation or right to indemnify him against such liability or expense.

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:
(i) to include any prospectus required by
Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act of 1933;
(ii) to reflect in the prospectus any facts or
events arising after the effective date of the Registration
Statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment
thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a
fundamental change in the information set forth in the
Registration Statement; and
(iii) 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.
Provided, however, that paragraphs A.1(i) and A.1(ii) do not
apply if the information required to be included in a post-effective
amendment by those paragraphs is contained in periodic reports filed
by the Registrant pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934 that are incorporated by reference in
the Registration Statement.
7
<PAGE> 8
2. That, for the purpose of determining any liability
under the Securities Act of 1933, 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 of 1933, each
filing of the Registrant's annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or Section
15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 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 of 1933 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 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 Act and
will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.

Re: Registration Statement on Form S-8 of Common Stock Issuable Pursuant
to 1995 Employee Stock Purchase Plan
Gentlemen:
We are rendering this opinion in connection with the registration by
Telxon Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the "Company"), under the
Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Act"), pursuant to a registration
statement on Form S-8 (the "Registration Statement") to be filed with the
Securities and Exchange Commission, of the 500,000 shares (the "Shares") of
common stock of the Company, par value $.01 per share, issuable pursuant to the
Company's 1995 Employee Stock Purchase Plan, as amended (the "Plan").
We have assisted the Company in its preparation the Registration
Statement in our capacity as its general counsel. In connection therewith, we
have examined and/or relied upon:
(a) The Plan;
(b) The written explanatory information, of the type and
scope required by Part I of Form S-8 to be provided to employees
offered securities pursuant to an employee benefit plan such as the
Plan, which information we understand the Company intends to provide,
in substantially similar form and content, to each employee eligible
to participate in the Plan;
(c) The Registration Statement; and
(d) The Restated Certificate of Incorporation and Amended
and Restated By-Laws, each as amended to date, of the Company
(together, the "Charter Documents") and the other exhibits to the
Registration Statement.

In addition, we have reviewed such other documents and have made such inquiries
of officers and directors of the Company and other persons as we have deemed
necessary to enable us to express the opinion hereinbelow set forth.
Based on and subject to the foregoing, we are of the opinion that the
(i) subject to (1) the effectiveness of the Registration Statement, (2)
compliance with the document delivery and updating requirements of Part I of
Form S-8 and of Rule 428(b) promulgated under the Act and with applicable state
securities laws and (3) payment of such purchase price as is required to be
paid with respect to the Shares issuable pursuant to the Plan and (ii) provided
that the Charter Documents and all applicable laws, rules and regulations then
in effect are the same as such Charter Documents, laws, rules and regulations
as are in effect as of the date hereof, any Shares hereafter awarded under and
in accordance with the Plan will be, legally issued, fully paid and
non-assessable under the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware under
which the Company is incorporated.
We hereby consent to the filing of a copy of this opinion as an
Exhibit to the Registration Statement.
In giving such consent, we do not thereby concede that we are within the
category of persons whose consent is required under Section 7 of the Act or the
rules and regulations promulgated thereunder.
Very truly yours,
