RE: Form S-8 Registration Statement
Dear Members of the Board:
As special project counsel to Hart Industries, Incorporated, a Nevada
corporation (the "Company"), in connection with that certain Form S-8
registration statement dated December 21, 2000, I have been asked to provide an
opinion of counsel as to the legality of the securities being registered,
indicating whether they will, when sold, be legally issued, fully paid and
non-assessable.
I am of the opinion that:
1. The Company has been duly incorporated and is validly existing as a
corporation in good standing under the laws of the State of Nevada, the
jurisdiction of its incorporation.
2. The terms and provisions of the common stock conform to the description
thereof contained in the registration statement, and the form of the stock
certificates used to evidence the common stock are in good and proper form and
no stockholder is entitled to preemptive rights to subscribe for or purchase
any of the common stock.
3. The issuance and the sale of the shares of common stock has been duly and
validly authorized and the securities will, when sold, be duly legally issued,
fully paid and non-assessable shares of common stock of the Company.
This opinion is limited to matters existing as of this date and no
responsibility is assumed to advise you of changes (factual or legal) which may
hereafter occur, whether deemed material or not.
This opinion is not to be used, circulated, quoted or otherwise referred to in
whole or in part for any other purpose, except as set forth in my consent.
Very truly yours,
/s/ Richard O. Weed
