Re: |
Registration Statement on Form S-3 |
Ladies and Gentlemen:
This opinion is furnished to you in connection
with the Registration Statement on Form S-3 (the “Registration Statement”), filed by Edgewise Therapeutics,
Inc. (the “Company”) with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”)
pursuant to Rule 462(b) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), in connection with
the registration under the Securities Act of additional (a) shares of the Company’s common stock, $0.0001 par value per share
(the “Common Stock”); (b) shares of the Company’s preferred stock, $0.0001 par value per share (the
“Preferred Stock”); (c) the Company’s debt securities (the “Debt Securities”);
(d) depositary shares of the Company representing a fractional interest in a share of Preferred Stock (the “Depositary
Shares”); (e) warrants to purchase Common Stock, Preferred Stock, Debt Securities or Depositary Shares (the “Warrants”);
(f) subscription rights to purchase Common Stock, Preferred Stock, Debt Securities, Depositary Shares, Warrants or units consisting
of some or all of these securities (the “Subscription Rights”); (g) purchase contracts of the Company with
respect to the securities of the Company (the “Purchase Contracts”); and (h) units consisting of two or
more securities described above in any combination (the “Units”) (the Common Stock, the Preferred Stock, the
Debt Securities, the Depositary Shares, the Warrants, the Subscription Rights, the Purchase Contracts and the Units are collectively referred
to herein as the “Securities”), with an aggregate offering price of $37,919,578.05. The Registration Statement
incorporates by reference the Registration Statement on Form S-3 (Registration No. 333-264083) (the “Prior Registration Statement”),
which was declared effective on May 5, 2022, including the prospectus which forms part of the Registration Statement (the “Prospectus”)
and the supplements to the prospectus referred to therein (each a “Prospectus Supplement”).
The Securities are to be sold from time to time
as set forth in the Registration Statement, the Prospectus contained therein and the Prospectus Supplements. The Debt Securities are to
be issued pursuant to a debt securities indenture (the “Indenture”), a form of which has been filed as an exhibit
to the Prior Registration Statement and is to be entered into between the Company and a trustee to be named in a Prospectus Supplement
to the Registration Statement (the “Trustee”). The Securities are to be sold pursuant to a purchase, underwriting
or similar agreement in substantially the form to be filed under a Current Report on Form 8-K. The Debt Securities are to be issued
in the form set forth in the Indenture. The Indenture may be supplemented in connection with the issuance of each such series of Debt
Securities, by a supplemental indenture or other appropriate action of the Company creating such series of Debt Securities.
We have examined instruments, documents, certificates
and records that we have deemed relevant and necessary for the basis of our opinions hereinafter expressed. In such examination, we have
assumed: (a) the authenticity of original documents and the genuineness of all signatures; (b) the conformity to the originals
of all documents submitted to us as copies; (c) the truth, accuracy and completeness of the information, representations and warranties
contained in the instruments, documents, certificates and records we have reviewed; (d) that the Registration Statement, and any
amendments thereto (including post-effective amendments), will have become effective under the Act; (e) that a Prospectus Supplement
will have been filed with the Commission describing the Securities offered thereby; (f) that the Securities will be issued and sold
in compliance with applicable U.S. federal and state securities laws and in the manner stated in the Registration Statement and the applicable
Prospectus Supplement; (g) that a definitive purchase, underwriting or similar agreement with respect to any Securities offered
will have been duly authorized and validly executed and delivered by the Company and the other parties thereto; (h) that any Securities
issuable upon conversion, exchange, redemption or exercise of any Securities being offered will be duly authorized, created and, if appropriate,
reserved for issuance upon such conversion, exchange, redemption or exercise; (i) with respect to shares of Common Stock or Preferred
Stock, that there will be sufficient shares of Common Stock or Preferred Stock authorized under the Company’s organizational documents
that are not otherwise reserved for issuance; and (j) the legal capacity of all natural persons. As to any facts material to the
opinions expressed herein that were not independently established or verified, we have relied upon oral or written statements and representations
of officers and other representatives of the Company. The term “Board” means the Board of Directors of the Company or a duly
constituted and acting committee thereof.
