The number of shares of Common Stock reserved and available for issuance under the Plan is subject to an automatic annual increase on each January 1, beginning in 2014, by an amount equal to up to five percent of the number of shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding on the immediately preceding December 31 or such lesser number of shares of Common Stock as determined by the Administrator (as defined in the Plan). On January 1, 2018, the number of shares of Common Stock reserved and available for issuance under the Plan increased by 1,291,644.  The additional shares are of the same class as other securities relating to the Plan for which the Registrant’s registration statement filed on Form S-8 (Registration No. 333-190326) on August 2, 2013, is effective.

Re:                              Securities Being Registered under Registration Statement on Form S-8

 

Ladies and Gentlemen:

 

We have acted as counsel to you in connection with your filing of a Registration Statement on Form S-8 (the “ Registration Statement ”) pursuant to the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “ Securities Act ”), on or about the date hereof relating to 1,291,644 shares (the “ Shares ”) of Common Stock, par value $0.0001 per share, of Control4 Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the “ Company ”), that may be issued pursuant to the Company’s 2013 Stock Option and Incentive Plan (the “ Plan ”).

 

We have reviewed such documents and made such examination of law as we have deemed appropriate to give the opinions set forth below. We have relied, without independent verification, on certificates of public officials and, as to matters of fact material to the opinion set forth below, on certificates of officers of the Company.

 

The opinion set forth below is limited to the Delaware General Corporation Law.  For purposes of the opinion set forth below, we have assumed that a sufficient number of authorized but unissued shares of the Company’s Common Stock will be available for issuance when the Shares are issued.

 

Based on the foregoing, we are of the opinion that the Shares have been duly authorized and, upon issuance and delivery against payment therefor in accordance with the terms of the Plan, will be validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable.

 

We hereby consent to the inclusion of this opinion as Exhibit 5.1 to the Registration Statement. In giving our consent, we do not admit that we are in the category of persons whose consent is required under Section 7 of the Securities Act or the rules and regulations thereunder.

 

Very truly yours,

 

/s/ Goodwin Procter LLP

 

GOODWIN PROCTER LLP
