Re: Alliance Pharmaceutical Corp.
Registration Statement on Form S-8
Ladies and Gentlemen:
We have acted as counsel to you (the "Company") in connection
with the preparation and filing of the above-captioned
Registration Statement on Form S-8 (the "Registration
Statement") under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the
"Act"), covering 24,979 shares of the Company's Common Stock,
par value $.01 per share (the "Shares"). The Shares are
issuable pursuant to the Employees' 401(k) Plan of Alliance
Pharmaceutical Corp. (the "Plan").
We have examined copies of the Certificate of Incorporation and
By-laws of the Company, each as amended to date, the Plan, the
minutes of various meetings of the Board of Directors of the
Company and the original, photostatic or certified copies of all
such records of the Company, and all such agreements,
certificates of public officials, certificates of officers and
representatives of the Company or others, and such other
documents, papers, statutes and authorities as we deemed
necessary to form the basis of the opinions hereinafter
expressed. In such examination, we have assumed the genuineness
of signatures and the conformity to original documents of the
documents supplied to us as copies. As to various questions of
fact material to such opinions, we have relied upon
statements and certificates of officers of the Company and
others.
Based upon the foregoing, we are of the opinion that all of the
Shares covered by the Registration Statement have
been duly authorized and, when issued in accordance with the
terms of the Plan, will be validly issued, fully paid
and nonassessable.
We hereby consent to your filing a copy of this opinion as an
exhibit to the Registration Statement. In giving such
consent, we do not admit hereby that we come within the category
of persons whose consent is required under Section 7 of the Act,
or the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange
Commission thereunder.
Very truly yours,
/s/STROOCK & STROOCK & LAVAN
