ITEM 4. DESCRIPTION OF SECURITIES
Not applicable.
ITEM 5. INTERESTS OF NAMED EXPERTS AND COUNSEL

ITEM 6. INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS
Article VII, Section 1, of the Bylaws of the Company provides that each
director, officer, employee or agent be fully indemnified by the corporation in
the manner and to the extent provided by Minnesota law. Minnesota Statutes,
Section 302A.521, generally requires a corporation to indemnify its directors,
officers, employees or agents against judgments, penalties, fines and expenses,
including attorneys' fees, incurred in connection with their official
capacities, provided that such person (i) has not been indemnified by another
with respect to the same matter, (ii) acted in good faith, (iii) received no
improper personal benefit, (iv) had no reasonable cause to believe that his
conduct was unlawful and (v) reasonably believed that his conduct was in the
best interests of the corporation.
Article VII, Section 1, of the Bylaws of the Company also authorizes
the corporation to purchase insurance to cover its directors, officers,
employees and agents for claims asserted against them in their official
capacities.
The Company has purchased officers' and directors' liability insurance.
The policy provides that the insurer will pay, on behalf of the Company, 95
percent of any amount the Company is required or permitted to pay to indemnify
directors and officers due to a claim against such director or officer for
errors, omissions, misstatements, misleading statements, negligence, or breach
of duty while acting in their official capacities, or asserted against them
solely by reason of their office, with certain exclusions. The insurer will pay
a maximum of $1,000,000 pursuant to this policy, and will only make payment to
the extent such damages exceed $250,000.
Article 10 of the Articles of Incorporation of the Company provides
that a director of the corporation shall have no liability to the corporation or
its stockholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty, to the
fullest extent permitted by Minnesota law. Minnesota Statutes, Section 302A.251,
subd. 4, provides that a director is not liable to a corporation or its
shareholders for monetary damages resulting from a breach of fiduciary duty as a
director, except for liability (1) for any breach of the director's duty of
loyalty to the corporation or its shareholders; (2) for acts or omissions not in
good faith or which involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of
law; (3) for transactions from which the director derived an improper personal
benefit; (4) for payment of dividends or stock redemptions by the corporation in
violation of the provisions of Section 302A.559 of the Minnesota Business
Corporation Act, as it may be amended from time to time; or (5) for any purchase
or sale of securities in violation of Section 80A.23 of the Minnesota Securities
Act, as it may be amended from time to time.

ITEM 9. UNDERTAKINGS.
(a) The Company 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;
(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 registration statement is on Form S-3 or Form S-8, and the
information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those
paragraphs is contained in periodic reports filed by the Company pursuant to
Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 that are
incorporated by reference 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
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 Company hereby undertakes that, for purposes of determining any
liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each filing of the Company'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 at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona
fide offering thereof.
(h) Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the
Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling
persons of the Company pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the
Company 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 Company 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 Company 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: Form S-8 Registration Statement
Ladies and Gentlemen:
You have requested our opinion with regard to the legality of the
proposed offering by Micro Component Technology, Inc. (the "Company") of an
aggregate of 900,000 shares of the Company's common stock, par value $.01 per
share, in connection with the Incentive Stock Option Plan and the Nonqualified
Stock Options for Outside Directors, Consultants and Advisors (the "Plans"). In
rendering this opinion, we have reviewed the Articles of Incorporation of the
Company, the Bylaws of the Company, the Plans, the minutes of all meetings of
the directors of the Company in which any action was taken pertaining to the
adoption of the Plans or the issuance of the shares, the Post-Effective
Amendment No. 1 to Registration Statement on Form S-8, and other matters deemed
relevant to us.
Based upon our examination of the foregoing documents and questions of
law as we have deemed applicable, we are of the following opinion:
1. That the Company is a corporation duly organized under the laws of
the State of Minnesota.
2. That the shares to be offered by the Company, when sold upon the
terms and in the manner set forth in the Plans and the Registration Statement,
will be validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable shares of the Company's
common stock.
The undersigned firm hereby consents to the inclusion of this letter as
a part of any application by the Company for registration or qualification of
the shares to be sold pursuant to the requirements of any federal or state law.
Very truly yours,
BEST & FLANAGAN
