Re: Registration Statement on Form S-8
Ladies and Gentlemen:
We have acted as counsel to Curative Health Services, Inc., a
Minnesota corporation (the "Company"), in connection with a Registration
Statement on Form S-8 (the "Registration Statement") covering 577,900 shares of
the Company's authorized but unissued shares of common stock, par value $.01 per
share (the "Shares"), issuable pursuant to the Company's 2000 Stock Incentive
Plan (the "Plan").
We have examined such documents, and have reviewed such questions of
law, as we have considered necessary and appropriate for the purposes of our
opinion set forth below. In rendering our opinion, we have assumed the
authenticity of all documents submitted to us as originals, the genuineness of
all signatures and the conformity to authentic originals of all documents
submitted to us as copies. We have also assumed the legal capacity for all
purposes relevant hereto of all natural persons and, with respect to all parties
to agreements or instruments relevant hereto other than the Company, that such
parties had the requisite power and authority (corporate or otherwise) to
execute, deliver and perform such agreements or instruments, that such
agreements or instruments have been duly authorized by all requisite action
(corporate or otherwise), executed and delivered by such parties and that such
agreements or instruments are the valid, binding and enforceable obligations of
such parties. As to questions of fact material to our opinion, we have relied
upon certificates of officers of the Company and of public officials.
Based on the foregoing, we are of the opinion that the Shares have
been duly authorized and, upon issuance, delivery and payment therefor in
accordance with the terms of the Plan, and any relevant agreements thereunder,
will be validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable.
Our opinions expressed above are limited to the laws of the State of
Minnesota.
We hereby consent to the filing of this opinion as an exhibit to the
Registration Statement.
Very truly yours,
/s/ Dorsey & Whitney LLP
