a post-effective amendment to this registration statement:
(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.
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

<PAGE>
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 (and, where applicable, each filing of an
employee benefit plan's annual report pursuant to 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

(h) Filing of Registration Statement on Form S-8.
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 of Shares on Amended Form S-8
Dear Sirs:
Our firm represents Baywood International, Inc., a Nevada corporation
(the "Company"), in connection with the Company's registration of eight hundred
thousand (800,000) shares of Common Stock, $.001 par value (the "Common Stock"),
to be issued by the Company from time to time pursuant to its Employee and
Consultant Stock Compensation Plan (the "Plan").
In this connection, we have examined originals or copies (certified or
otherwise) of such documents, corporate and other records, certificates and
other papers which we deemed necessary for the purpose of this opinion. Based on
such examination, it is our opinion that the shares of the Common Stock
registered under the Registration Statement on Form S-8 (the "Registration
Statement") will, when issued pursuant to the Plan, be legally issued, fully
paid and non-assessable.
In giving our opinion, we have assumed without investigation the
authenticity of any document or instrument submitted to us as an original, the
conformity to the original of any document or instrument submitted to us as a
copy, and the genuineness of all signatures on such originals or copies. Our
opinion is subject to the qualification that no opinion is expressed as to the
application of any individual state's securities or Blue Sky laws.
This Opinion is furnished by us as counsel to you and is solely for
your benefit, to be used as an exhibit to the Registration Statement. Neither
this Opinion nor copies hereof may be otherwise relied upon by, delivered to, or
quoted in whole or in part to any governmental agency or other person without
our prior written consent.
