Ladies and Gentlemen:

BIOAFFINITY TECHNOLOGIES, INC., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), proposes, subject to the terms and conditions stated herein, to issue and sell to the underwriters named in Schedule I hereto (the “Underwriters,” or each, an “Underwriter”), for whom WallachBeth Capital, LLC is acting as representative (the “Representative”), an aggregate of 1,285,325 units (“Units”) at an estimated initial public offering price between $6.00 and $6.25 per Unit (the “Price Range”). Each Unit will consist of: (i) one share of the Company’s common stock, $0.007 par value per share (the “Common Stock”); (ii) one five year tradeable warrant (“Tradeable Warrant”) to purchase one share of Common Stock at an exercise price equal to 120% of the assumed per-Unit Offering Price (defined below) of $6.125, which is the midpoint of the Price Range; and one five year non-tradeable warrant (“Non-Tradeable Warrant”) to purchase one share of Common Stock (“Warrant Shares”) at an exercise price equal to 125% of the Unit Offering Price (defined below). The Tradeable Warrant and the Non-Tradeable Warrant are referred to herein together as the “Warrants” and the shares of Common Stock for which the Warrants are exercisable are referred to herein as the “Warrant Shares.” The said 1,285,325 Units referred to herein are hereinafter referred to as the “Firm Units.” The Units have no stand-alone rights and will not be certificated or issued as stand-alone securities. The shares of Common Stock and the Warrants comprising the Units will be immediately separable and will be issued separately in this offering. The Company also proposes to sell to the Underwriters, upon the terms and conditions set forth in Section 4 hereof, an option (the “Over-Allotment Option”) to purchase up to an additional 192,799 shares of Common Stock (the “Option Shares”) and/or up to an additional 192,799 Non-Tradeable Warrants and/or 192,799 Tradeable Warrants (the “Option Warrants”), representing, in total, up to fifteen percent (15%) of the number of Firm Units sold in the offering for the purpose of covering over-allotments of such securities, if any. The exercise of the Over-Allotment Option is at the Underwriters’ sole discretion. The Representative’s Warrant (defined in Section 4(f)) and the shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise thereof (“Representative’s Warrant Shares”) are referred to herein as the “Representative’s Securities.” The Firm Units, the Common Stock, the Warrants, the Option Shares, the Option Warrants, the shares of Common Stock underlying the Warrants and the Option Warrants and the Representative’s Securities are collectively referred to herein as the “Securities.” The Securities shall be issued directly by the Company and shall have the rights and privileges described in the Registration Statement, the Preliminary Prospectus and the Pricing Prospectus (as defined below). The offering and sale of the Securities is herein referred to as the “Offering.”

The Company and the several Underwriters hereby confirm their agreement as follows:

1. Registration Statement and Prospectus.

The Company has prepared and filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) a registration statement covering the Securities on Form S-1 (File No. 333-264463) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and the rules and regulations (the “Rules and Regulations”) of the Commission thereunder, including a preliminary prospectus relating to the Securities and such amendments to such registration statement (including post effective amendments) as may have been required to the date of this Agreement. Such registration statement, as amended (including any post effective amendments), has been declared effective by the Commission. Such registration statement, including amendments thereto (including post effective amendments thereto) and all documents and information deemed to be a part of the Registration Statement through incorporation by reference or otherwise at the time of effectiveness thereof (the “Effective Time”), the exhibits and any schedules thereto at the Effective Time or thereafter during the period of effectiveness and the documents and information otherwise deemed to be a part thereof or included therein by the Securities Act or otherwise pursuant to the Rules and Regulations at the Effective Time or thereafter during the period of effectiveness, is herein called the “Registration Statement.” If the Company has filed or files an abbreviated registration statement pursuant to Rule 462(b) under the Securities Act (the “Rule 462 Registration Statement”), then any reference herein to the term Registration Statement shall include such Rule 462 Registration Statement. Any preliminary prospectus included in the Registration Statement or filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(a) under the Securities Act is hereinafter called a “Preliminary Prospectus.” The Preliminary Prospectus relating to the Securities that was included in the Registration Statement immediately prior to the pricing of the offering contemplated hereby is hereinafter called the “Pricing Prospectus.”

The Company is filing with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424 under the Securities Act a final prospectus covering the Securities, which includes the information permitted to be omitted therefrom at the Effective Time by Rule 430A under the Securities Act. Such final prospectus, as so filed, is hereinafter called the “Final Prospectus.” The Final Prospectus, the Pricing Prospectus and any Preliminary Prospectus in the form in which they were included in the Registration Statement or filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424 under the Securities Act is hereinafter called a “Prospectus.” Reference made herein to any Preliminary Prospectus, the Pricing Prospectus or to the Prospectus shall be deemed to refer to and include any documents incorporated by reference therein.

(iii) From the date of this Agreement until the end of the Prospectus Delivery Period, the Company shall promptly advise the Representative in writing (A) of the receipt of any comments of, or requests for additional or supplemental information from, the Commission, (B) of the time and date of any filing of any post-effective amendment to the Registration Statement or any amendment or supplement to the Time of Sale Disclosure Package, the Final Prospectus or any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus, (C) of the time and date that any post-effective amendment to the Registration Statement becomes effective and (D) of the issuance by the Commission of any stop order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement or of any order preventing or suspending its use or the use of the Time of Sale Disclosure Package, the Final Prospectus or any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus, or of any proceedings to remove, suspend or terminate from listing or quotation the Common Stock or the Tradeable Warrants from any securities exchange upon which either is listed for trading or included or designated for quotation, or of the threatening or initiation of any proceedings for any of such purposes. If the Commission shall enter any such stop order at any time during the Prospectus Delivery Period, the Company will use its reasonable efforts to obtain the lifting of such order at the earliest possible moment. Additionally, the Company agrees that it shall comply with the provisions of Rules 424(b), 430A, 430B or 430C as applicable, under the Securities Act and will use its reasonable efforts to confirm that any filings made by the Company under Rule 424(b) or Rule 433 were received in a timely manner by the Commission (without reliance on Rule 424(b)(8) or 164(b) of the Securities Act).

(iv) During the Prospectus Delivery Period, the Company will comply with all requirements imposed upon it by the Securities Act, as now and hereafter amended, and by the Rules and Regulations, as from time to time in force, and by the Exchange Act, as now and hereafter amended, so far as necessary to permit the continuance of sales of or dealings in the Securities as contemplated by the provisions hereof, the Time of Sale Disclosure Package, the Registration Statement and the Final Prospectus. If during the Prospectus Delivery Period any event occurs the result of which would cause the Final Prospectus (or if the Final Prospectus is not yet available to prospective purchasers, the Time of Sale Disclosure Package ) to include an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances then existing, not misleading, or if during such period it is necessary or appropriate in the opinion of the Company or its counsel or the Representative or counsel to the Underwriters to amend the Registration Statement or supplement the Final Prospectus (or if the Final Prospectus is not yet available to prospective purchasers, the Time of Sale Disclosure Package ) to comply with the Securities Act, the Company will promptly notify the Representative, allow the Representative the opportunity to provide reasonable comments on such amendment, prospectus supplement or document, and will amend the Registration Statement or supplement the Final Prospectus (or if the Final Prospectus is not yet available to prospective purchasers, the Time of Sale Disclosure Package) or file such document (at the expense of the Company) so as to correct such statement or omission or effect such compliance.

(v) The Company shall take or cause to be taken all necessary action to qualify the Securities and Representative’s Securities for sale under the securities laws of such jurisdictions as the Representative reasonably designates and to continue such qualifications in effect so long as required, except that the Company shall not be required in connection therewith to qualify as a foreign corporation or as a dealer in securities in any jurisdiction in which it is not so qualified, to execute a general consent to service of process in any state or to subject itself to taxation in respect of doing business in any jurisdiction in which it is not otherwise subject.

(vi) The Company will furnish to the Underwriters and counsel to the Underwriters copies of the Registration Statement, each Prospectus, and all amendments and supplements to such documents, in each case as soon as available and in such quantities as the Underwriters may from time to time reasonably request.

(vii) The Company will make generally available (which includes filings pursuant to the Exchange Act made publicly through the Electronic Data Gathering, Analysis and Retrieval (“EDGAR”) system) to its security holders as soon as practicable, but in any event not later than 15 months after the end of the Company’s current fiscal quarter, an earnings statement (which need not be audited) covering a 12-month period that shall satisfy the provisions of Section 11(a) of the Securities Act and Rule 158 of the Rules and Regulations.

(viii) The Company, whether or not the transactions contemplated hereunder are consummated or this Agreement is terminated, will pay or cause to be paid all expenses relating to the Offering, including, without limitation, (a) all filing fees and communication expenses relating to the registration of the Securities and the Representative’s Securities to be sold in the Offering with the Commission; (b) all actual Public Offering Filing System filing fees associated with the review of the Offering by FINRA; (c) all fees and expenses relating to the listing of the Common Stock and the Tradeable Warrants on the Nasdaq Capital Market; (d) all fees, expenses and disbursements, if any, relating to the registration or qualification of the Securities and the Representative’s Securities under the “blue sky” securities laws of such states and other jurisdictions as the Representatives may reasonably designate (including, without limitation, all filing and registration fees, and the reasonable and documented fees and disbursements of “blue sky” counsel); (e) all actual fees, expenses and disbursements relating to the registration, qualification or exemption of the Securities and the Representative’s Securities under the securities laws of such foreign jurisdictions as the Representatives may reasonably designate; (f) the costs of all mailing and printing of the Registration Statements, Prospectuses and all amendments, supplements and exhibits thereto and as many preliminary and Final Prospectuses as the Representatives may reasonably deem necessary; (g) the costs of preparing, printing and delivering certificates representing the Securities and the Representative’s Securities; (h) fees and expenses of the transfer agent for the Common Stock; (i) stock transfer and/or stamp taxes, if any, payable upon the transfer of securities from the Company to the Underwriters; (j) the fees and expenses of the Company’s accountants; (k) the fees and expenses of the Company’s legal counsel and other agents and representatives; (l) all reasonable and documented “road show” expenses for the Offering; and (m) the due diligence fees and expenses of the Underwriters, including, without limitation, legal fees and expenses of the Underwriters and other diligence expenses. The Representatives may deduct from the net proceeds of the Offering payable to the Company on the Closing Date, or any Option Closing Date, if any, the expenses set forth herein to be paid by the Company to the Underwriters, provided, however, that in the event that the Offering is terminated, the Company agrees to reimburse the reasonable and documented out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with the Offering and any advance paid by the Company to the Representative but not utilized against accountable expenses will be returned to the Company to the extent not actually incurred in accordance with FINRA Rule 5110(f)(2)(C).

Any such free writing prospectus consented to by the Company and the Representative is hereinafter referred to as a “Permitted Free Writing Prospectus.” The Company represents that it has treated or agrees that it will treat each Permitted Free Writing Prospectus as an “issuer free writing prospectus,” as defined in Rule 433, and has complied or will comply with the requirements of Rule 433 applicable to any Permitted Free Writing Prospectus, including timely Commission filing where required, legending and record-keeping.

(xii) The Company hereby agrees that, without the prior written consent of the Representative, it and any successors will not, during the period ending one hundred and eighty (180) days after the date hereof (“Lock-Up Period”), (a) offer, pledge, sell, contract to sell, sell any option or contract to purchase, purchase any option or contract to sell, grant any option, right or warrant to purchase, lend, or otherwise transfer or dispose of, directly or indirectly, any shares of capital stock of the Company or any securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for shares of capital stock of the Company, (b) file or caused to be filed any registration statement with the Commission relating to the offering of any shares of capital stock or any securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for shares of capital stock or (c) enter into any swap or other arrangement that transfers to another in whole or in part, any of the economic consequences of ownership of capital stock of the Company, whether any such transaction described in clause (a), (b) or (c) above is to be settled by delivery of shares of capital stock of the Company or any successors or such other securities, in cash or otherwise.

(i) For a period of sixteen (16) months from the closing of the Offering, the Company hereby grants a right of first refusal to the Representative to act as lead underwriter or book-running manager or placement agent for each and every future public and private equity, equity-linked, convertible or debt (excluding commercial bank debt) offerings of the Company, or any successor to or any subsidiary of the Company during such sixteen (16) month period. If the Representative fails to accept an offer within ten (10) Business Days after the receipt of a notice containing the material terms of a proposed financing by registered mail or overnight courier service addressed to the Representative, then the Representative shall have no further claim or right with respect to the financing proposal contained in such notice. If, however, the terms of such financing proposal are subsequently modified in any material respect, the preferential right referred to herein shall apply to such modified proposal as if the original proposal had not been made. The Representative’s failure to exercise its preferential right with respect to any particular proposal shall not affect its preferential rights relative to future proposals.

(ii) For a period of 12 months after the closing of the Offering, the Representative will receive a cash fee equal to the underwriting discount and the Representative’s Warrant set forth herein with respect to any sale, merger, acquisition or other similar transactions (each, a “Transaction”) occurring with a party introduced to the Company by the Representative in connection with the Offering.

The term “Transaction” shall include, without limitation, any investment in (whether in one or a series of transactions) the assets or the capital stock of the Company, through any proposed merger, consolidation, joint venture or other business/strategic combination with or involving the Company or any event which results in the transfer of control of or a material interest in the Company or of all or a substantial amount of the assets thereof, as well as any recapitalization or restructuring of the Company by the current owners, a third party or any combination thereof, or any other form of transaction which results in the effective acquisition of the principal business and operations of the Company.

7. Indemnification and Contribution.

(a) The Company agrees to indemnify, defend and hold harmless each Underwriter, its affiliates, and their respective directors and officers, employees, agents, counsel and each person, if any, who controls such Underwriter within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act (each, an “Underwriter Indemnified Party”), from and against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities to which such Underwriter or such person may become subject, under the Securities Act or otherwise (including in settlement of any litigation if such settlement is effected with the written consent of the Company), insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon (i) an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Registration Statement, including the information deemed to be a part of the Registration Statement at the time of effectiveness and at any subsequent time pursuant to Rules 430A and 430B of the Rules and Regulations, or arise out of or are based upon the omission from the Registration Statement, or alleged omission to state therein, a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading (ii) an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Time of Sale Disclosure Package, any oral or written communication with potential investors undertaken in reliance on Section 5(d) of the Securities Act (Written Testing-the-Waters Communications), any Prospectus, the Final Prospectus, or any amendment or supplement thereto, or the Marketing Materials or in any other materials used in connection with the offering of the Securities, or arise out of or are based upon the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, (iii) in whole or in part, any inaccuracy in the representations and warranties of the Company contained herein, or (iv) in whole or in part, any failure of the Company to perform its obligations hereunder or under law, and will reimburse each Underwriter Indemnified Party for any reasonable and documented legal or other expenses incurred by it in connection with evaluating, investigating or defending against such loss, claim, damage, liability or action; provided, however, that the Company shall not be liable in any such case to the extent that any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action arises out of or is based upon an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission made in the Registration Statement, the Time of Sale Disclosure Package, any Written Testing-the-Waters Communications, any Prospectus, the Final Prospectus, or any amendment or supplement thereto or any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus, in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by such Underwriter specifically for use in the preparation thereof, which written information is described in Section 7(f).

(b) Each Underwriter, severally and not jointly, will indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Company, its affiliates, directors, officers and employees, and each person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act, from and against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities to which the Company may become subject, under the Securities Act or otherwise (including in settlement of any litigation, if such settlement is effected with the written consent of such Underwriter), insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Registration Statement, the Time of Sale Disclosure Package, any Prospectus, the Final Prospectus, or any amendment or supplement thereto, or arise out of or are based upon the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, in each case to the extent, but only to the extent, that such untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission was made in the Registration Statement, the Time of Sale Disclosure Package, any Prospectus, the Final Prospectus, or any amendment or supplement thereto in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by such Underwriter specifically for use in the preparation thereof, which written information is described in Section 7(f), and will reimburse the Company for any reasonable and documented legal or other expenses incurred by the Company in connection with evaluating, investigating, and defending against any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action. The obligation of each Underwriter to indemnify the Company (including any controlling person, director or officer thereof) shall be limited to the amount equal to the Underwriting discount applicable to the Firm Units actually received by such Underwriter hereunder.

(c) Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under subsection (a) or (b) above of notice of the commencement of any action, such indemnified party shall, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against the indemnifying party under such subsection, notify the indemnifying party in writing of the commencement thereof, but the failure to notify the indemnifying party shall not relieve the indemnifying party from any liability that it may have to any indemnified party except to the extent such indemnifying party has been materially prejudiced by such failure. In case any such action shall be brought against any indemnified party, and it shall notify the indemnifying party of the commencement thereof, the indemnifying party shall be entitled to participate in, and, to the extent that it shall wish, jointly with any other indemnifying party similarly notified, to assume the defense thereof, with counsel satisfactory to such indemnified party, and after notice from the indemnifying party to such indemnified party of the indemnifying party’s election so to assume the defense thereof, the indemnifying party shall not be liable to such indemnified party under such subsection for any legal or other expenses subsequently incurred by such indemnified party in connection with the defense thereof; provided, however, that if (i) the indemnified party has reasonably concluded (based on advice of counsel) that there may be legal defenses available to it or other indemnified parties that are different from or in addition to those available to the indemnifying party, (ii) a conflict or potential conflict exists (based on advice of counsel to the indemnified party) between the indemnified party and the indemnifying party (in which case the indemnifying party will not have the right to direct the defense of such action on behalf of the indemnified party), or (iii) the indemnifying party has not in fact employed counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party to assume the defense of such action within a reasonable time after receiving notice of the commencement of the action, the indemnified party shall have the right to employ a single counsel to represent it in any claim in respect of which indemnity may be sought under subsection (a) or (b) of this Section 7, in which event the reasonable and documented fees and expenses of such separate counsel shall be borne by the indemnifying party or parties and reimbursed to the indemnified party as incurred.

The indemnifying party under this Section 7 shall not be liable for any settlement of any proceeding effected without its written consent, but if settled with such consent or if there be a final judgment for the plaintiff, the indemnifying party agrees to indemnify the indemnified party against any loss, claim, damage, liability or expense by reason of such settlement or judgment. No indemnifying party shall, without the prior written consent of the indemnified party (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld), effect any settlement, compromise or consent to the entry of judgment in any pending or threatened action, suit or proceeding in respect of which any indemnified party is a party or could be named and indemnity was or would be sought hereunder by such indemnified party, unless such settlement, compromise or consent (a) includes an unconditional release of such indemnified party from all liability for claims that are the subject matter of such action, suit or proceeding and (b) does not include a statement as to or an admission of fault, culpability or a failure to act by or on behalf of any indemnified party.

(d) If the indemnification provided for in this Section 7 is unavailable or insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party under subsection (a) or (b) above, then each indemnifying party shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of the losses, claims, damages or liabilities referred to in subsection (a) or (b) above, (i) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the Company on the one hand and the Underwriters on the other from the offering and sale of the Securities, or (ii) if the allocation provided by clause (i) above is not permitted by applicable law, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits referred to in clause (i) above but also the relative fault of the Company on the one hand and the Underwriters on the other in connection with the statements or omissions that resulted in such losses, claims, damages or liabilities, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative benefits received by the Company on the one hand and the Underwriters on the other shall be deemed to be in the same proportion as the total net proceeds from the offering (before deducting expenses) received by the Company bear to the total underwriting discount received by the Underwriters, in each case as set forth in the table on the cover page of the Final Prospectus. The relative fault shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the Company or the Underwriters and the parties’ relevant intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such untrue statement or omission. The Company and the Underwriters agree that it would not be just and equitable if contributions pursuant to this subsection (d) were to be determined by pro rata allocation or by any other method of allocation that does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to in the first sentence of this subsection (d). The amount paid by an indemnified party as a result of the losses, claims, damages or liabilities referred to in the first sentence of this subsection (d) shall be deemed to include any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in connection with investigating or defending against any action or claim that is the subject of this subsection (d). Notwithstanding the provisions of this subsection (d), no Underwriter shall be required to contribute any amount in excess of the amount of the of the underwriting discount applicable to the Securities to be purchased by such Underwriter hereunder actually received by such Underwriter. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. The Underwriters’ respective obligations to contribute as provided in this Section 7 are several in proportion to their respective underwriting commitments and not joint.

(e) The obligations of the Company under this Section 7 shall be in addition to any liability that the Company may otherwise have and the benefits of such obligations shall extend, upon the same terms and conditions, to each person, if any, who controls any Underwriter within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act; and the obligations of each Underwriter under this Section 7 shall be in addition to any liability that each Underwriter may otherwise have and the benefits of such obligations shall extend, upon the same terms and conditions, to the Company and its officers, directors and each person who controls the Company within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act.

4. Registration Rights.

4.1 Demand Registration.

4.1.1 Grant of Right. The Company, upon written demand (a “Demand Notice”) of the Holders of at least 51% of the Purchase Warrants and/or the underlying Common Shares, agrees to register, on one (1) occasion, all or any portion of the Common Shares underlying the Purchase Warrants (collectively, the “Registrable Securities”). On such occasion, the Company will file a registration statement with the Commission covering the Registrable Securities within sixty (60) days after receipt of a Demand Notice and use its reasonable best efforts to have the registration statement declared effective promptly thereafter, subject to compliance with review by the Commission; provided, however, that the Company shall not be required to comply with a Demand Notice if the Company has filed a registration statement with respect to which the Holder is entitled to piggyback registration rights pursuant to Section 4.2 hereof and either: (i) the Holder has elected to participate in the offering covered by such registration statement or (ii) if such registration statement relates to an underwritten primary offering of securities of the Company, until the offering covered by such registration statement has been withdrawn or until thirty (30) days after such offering is consummated. The Company covenants and agrees to give written notice of its receipt of any Demand Notice by any Holders to all other registered Holders of the Purchase Warrants and/or the Registrable Securities within ten (10) days after the date of the receipt of any such Demand Notice. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, the obligations of the Company pursuant to this Section 4.1 shall not be applicable so long as the Company’s Registration Statement on Form S-1 (File No. 333-264463) covering the Registrable Securities remains effective.

4.1.2 Terms. The Company shall bear all fees and expenses attendant to the registration of the Registrable Securities pursuant to Section 4.1.1, but the Holders shall pay any and all underwriting commissions and the expenses of any legal counsel selected by the Holders to represent them in connection with the sale of the Registrable Securities. The Company agrees to use its reasonable best efforts to cause the filing required herein to become effective promptly and to qualify or register the Registrable Securities in such states as are reasonably requested by the Holders; provided, however, that in no event shall the Company be required to register the Registrable Securities in a State in which such registration would cause: (i) the Company to be obligated to register or license to do business in such State or submit to general service of process in such State, or (ii) the principal shareholders of the Company to be obligated to escrow their shares of capital stock of the Company. The Company shall cause any registration statement filed pursuant to the demand right granted under Section 4.1.1 to remain effective for a period of at least twelve (12) consecutive months after the date that the Holders of the Registrable Securities covered by such registration statement are first given the opportunity to sell all of such securities. The Holders shall only use the prospectuses provided by the Company to sell the shares covered by such registration statement, and will immediately cease to use any prospectus furnished by the Company if the Company advises the Holder that such prospectus may no longer be used due to a material misstatement or omission. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 4.1.2, the Holder shall be entitled to a demand registration under this Section 4.1.2 on only one (1) occasion and such demand registration right shall terminate on the fifth anniversary of the Effective Date in accordance with FINRA Rule 5110(g)(8)(C).

4.2 “Piggy-Back” Registration.

4.2.1 Grant of Rights. In addition to the demand right of registration described in Section 4.1 hereof, the Holder shall have the right, for a period of no more than seven (7) years from the Effective Date in accordance with FINRA Rule 5110(g)(8)(D), to include the Registrable Securities as part of any other registration of securities filed by the Company (other than in connection with a transaction contemplated by Rule 145(a) promulgated under the Securities Act or pursuant to Form S-8 or Form S-4 or any equivalent form); provided, however, that if, solely in connection with any primary underwritten public offering for the account of the Company, the managing underwriter(s) thereof shall, in its reasonable discretion, impose a limitation on the number of Common Shares which may be included in the Registration Statement because, in such underwriter(s)’ judgment, marketing or other factors dictate such limitation is necessary to facilitate public distribution, then the Company shall be obligated to include in such Registration Statement only such limited portion of the Registrable Securities with respect to which the Holder requested inclusion hereunder as the underwriter shall reasonably permit. Any exclusion of Registrable Securities shall be made pro rata among the Holders seeking to include Registrable Securities in proportion to the number of Registrable Securities sought to be included by such Holders; provided, however, that the Company shall not exclude any Registrable Securities unless the Company has first excluded all outstanding securities, the holders of which are not entitled to inclusion of such securities in such Registration Statement or are not entitled to pro rata inclusion with the Registrable Securities. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, the obligations of the Company pursuant to this Section 4.2 shall not be applicable so long as the Company’s Registration Statement on Form S-1 (File No. 333-264463) covering the Registrable Securities remains effective.

4.2.2 Terms. The Company shall bear all fees and expenses attendant to registering the Registrable Securities pursuant to Section 4.2.1 hereof, but the Holders shall pay any and all underwriting commissions and the expenses of any legal counsel selected by the Holders to represent them in connection with the sale of the Registrable Securities. In the event of such a proposed registration, the Company shall furnish the then Holders of outstanding Registrable Securities with not less than thirty (30) days’ written notice prior to the proposed date of filing of such registration statement. Such notice to the Holders shall continue to be given for each registration statement filed by the Company until such time as all of the Registrable Securities have been sold by the Holder. The holders of the Registrable Securities shall exercise the “piggy-back” rights provided for herein by giving written notice within ten (10) days of the receipt of the Company’s notice of its intention to file a registration statement. Except as otherwise provided in this Purchase Warrant, there shall be no limit on the number of times the Holder may request registration under this Section 4.2.2; provided, however, that such registration rights shall terminate on a date that is seven (7) years from the Effective Date.

4.3 General Terms.

4.3.1 Indemnification. The Company shall indemnify the Holders of the Registrable Securities to be sold pursuant to any registration statement hereunder and each person, if any, who controls such Holders within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (“Exchange Act”), against all loss, claim, damage, expense or liability (including all reasonable attorneys’ fees and other expenses reasonably incurred in investigating, preparing or defending against any claim whatsoever) to which any of them may become subject under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act or otherwise, arising from such registration statement but only to the same extent and with the same effect as the provisions pursuant to which the Company has agreed to indemnify the Underwriters contained in Section 5.1 of the Underwriting Agreement between the Underwriters and the Company, dated as of [*], 2022. The Holders of the Registrable Securities to be sold pursuant to such registration statement, and their successors and assigns, shall severally, and not jointly, indemnify the Company, against all loss, claim, damage, expense, or liability (including all reasonable attorneys’ fees and other expenses reasonably incurred in investigating, preparing or defending against any claim whatsoever) to which they may become subject under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act or otherwise, arising from information furnished by or on behalf of such Holders, or their successors or assigns, in writing, for specific inclusion in such registration statement to the same extent and with the same effect as the provisions contained in Section 5.2 of the Underwriting Agreement pursuant to which the Underwriters have agreed to indemnify the Company.

The Company shall also deliver promptly to each Holder participating in the offering requesting the correspondence and memoranda described below and to the managing underwriter, if any, copies of all correspondence between the Commission and the Company, its counsel or auditor, and all memoranda relating to discussions with the Commission or its staff with respect to the registration statement and permit each Holder and underwriter to do such investigation, upon reasonable advance notice, with respect to the information contained in or omitted from the registration statement as it deems reasonably necessary to comply with applicable securities laws or rules of FINRA. Such investigation shall include access to books, records, and properties, and opportunities to discuss the business of the Company with its officers and independent auditor, all to such reasonable extent and at such reasonable times as any such Holder shall reasonably request.

4.3.4 Underwriting Agreement. The Company shall enter into an underwriting agreement with the managing underwriter(s), if any, selected by any Holders whose Registrable Securities are being registered pursuant to this Section 4, which managing underwriter shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Company.

The Holders shall be parties to any underwriting agreement relating to an underwritten sale of their Registrable Securities and may, at their option, require that any or all the representations, warranties, and covenants of the Company to or for the benefit of such underwriters shall also be made to and for the benefit of such Holders.

4.4 Termination of Registration Rights. The registration rights afforded to the Holders under this Section 4 shall terminate on the earliest date when all Registrable Securities of such Holder either: (i) have been publicly sold by such Holder pursuant to a Registration Statement, (ii) have been covered by an effective Registration Statement on Form S-1 or Form S-3 (or successor form), which may be kept effective as an evergreen Registration Statement, or (iii) may be sold by the Holder (including on a cashless basis) within a 90 day period without registration pursuant to Rule 144 or consistent with applicable SEC interpretive guidance (including C&DI No. 201.04 (April 2, 2007) or similar interpretive guidance).

5. New Purchase Warrants to be Issued.

5.1 Partial Exercise or Transfer. Subject to the restrictions in Section 3 hereof, this Purchase Warrant may be exercised or assigned in whole or in part. In the event of the exercise or assignment hereof in part only, upon surrender of this Purchase Warrant for cancellation, together with the duly executed exercise or assignment form and funds sufficient to pay any Exercise Price and/or transfer tax if exercised pursuant to Section 2.1 hereof, the Company shall cause to be delivered to the Holder without charge a new Purchase Warrant of like tenor to this Purchase Warrant in the name of the Holder evidencing the right of the Holder to purchase the number of shares of Common Stock purchasable hereunder as to which this Purchase Warrant has not been exercised or assigned.

5.2 Lost Certificate. Upon receipt by the Company of evidence satisfactory to it of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of this Purchase Warrant and of reasonably satisfactory indemnification or the posting of a bond, the Company shall execute and deliver a new Purchase Warrant of like tenor and date. Any such new Purchase Warrant executed and delivered as a result of such loss, theft, mutilation or destruction shall constitute a substitute contractual obligation on the part of the Company.

6. Adjustments.

6.1 Adjustments to Exercise Price and Number of Shares of Common Stock. The Exercise Price and the number of shares of Common Stock underlying this Purchase Warrant shall be subject to adjustment from time to time as hereinafter set forth:

6.1.1 Share Dividends; Split Ups. If, after the date hereof, and subject to the provisions of Section 6.3 below, the number of outstanding Common Stock is increased by a stock dividend payable in Common Stock or by a split up of the Common Stock or other similar event, then, on the effective day thereof, the number of shares of Common Stock purchasable hereunder shall be increased in proportion to such increase in outstanding shares of Common Stock, and the Exercise Price shall be proportionately decreased.

6.1.2 Subsequent Equity Sales. If the Company or any Subsidiary thereof, as applicable, at any time while this Warrant is outstanding, shall sell, enter into an agreement to sell, or grant any option to purchase, or sell, enter into an agreement to sell, or grant any right to reprice, or otherwise dispose of or issue (or announce any offer, sale, grant or any option to purchase or other disposition) any Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents, at an effective price per share less than the Exercise Price then in effect (such lower price, the “Base Share Price” and such issuances collectively, a “Dilutive Issuance”) (it being understood and agreed that if the holder of the Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents so issued shall at any time, whether by operation of purchase price adjustments, reset provisions, floating conversion, exercise or exchange prices or otherwise, or due to warrants, options or rights per share which are issued in connection with such issuance, be entitled to receive shares of Common Stock at an effective price per share that is less than the Exercise Price, such issuance shall be deemed to have occurred for less than the Exercise Price on such date of the Dilutive Issuance at such effective price), then simultaneously with the consummation (or, if earlier, the announcement) of each Dilutive Issuance the Exercise Price shall be reduced and only reduced to equal the Base Share Price provided that the Base Share Price shall not be less than $[*] (subject to adjustment for reverse and forward stock splits, recapitalizations and similar transactions following the Initial Issuance Date). Notwithstanding the foregoing, no adjustments shall be made, paid or issued under this Section 3(b) in respect of an Exempt Issuance. The Company shall notify the Holder, in writing, no later than the Trading Day following the issuance or deemed issuance of any shares of Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents subject to this Section 6.1.2, indicating therein the applicable issuance price, or applicable reset price, exchange price, conversion price and other pricing terms (such notice, the “Dilutive Issuance Notice”). For purposes of clarification, whether or not the Company provides a Dilutive Issuance Notice pursuant to this Section 3(b), upon the occurrence of any Dilutive Issuance, the Holder is entitled to receive a number of Warrant Shares based upon the Base Share Price regardless of whether the Holder accurately refers to the Base Share Price in the Notice of Exercise. If the Company enters into a Variable Rate Transaction, the Company shall be deemed to have issued shares of Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents at the lowest possible price, conversion price or exercise price at which such securities may be issued, converted or exercised. An “Exempt Issuance” means the issuance of (a) shares of Common Stock or options to employees, officers, directors or consultants of the Company pursuant to any stock or option plan duly adopted for such purpose, by a majority of the non-employee members of the Board of Directors or a majority of the members of a committee of non-employee directors established for such purpose for services rendered to the Company, (b) securities upon the exercise or exchange of or conversion of the Common Stock to be issued hereunder and/or other securities exercisable or exchangeable for or convertible into shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding on the date of this Warrant, provided that such securities have not been amended since the date of this Warrant to increase the number of such securities or to decrease the exercise price, exchange price or conversion price of such securities (other than in connection with stock dividends, stock splits or combinations) or to extend the term of such securities, (c) securities in connection with an underwritten public offering, and (d) securities issued pursuant to acquisitions or strategic transactions approved by a majority of the disinterested directors of the Company, provided that any such issuance shall only be to a person or entity (“Person”) (or to the equity holders of a Person) which is, itself or through its subsidiaries, an operating company or an owner of an asset in a business synergistic with the business of the Company and shall provide to the Company additional benefits in addition to the investment of funds, but shall not include a transaction in which the Company is issuing securities primarily for the purpose of raising capital or to an entity whose primary business is investing in securities.

6.1.3 Aggregation of Shares of Common Stock. If, after the date hereof, and subject to the provisions of Section 6.3 below, the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock is decreased by a consolidation, combination or reclassification of the Common Stock or other similar event, then, on the effective date thereof, the number of shares of Common Stock purchasable hereunder shall be decreased in proportion to such decrease in outstanding shares, and the Exercise Price shall be proportionately increased.

6.1.4 Replacement of Common Stock upon Reorganization, etc. In case of any reclassification or reorganization of the outstanding Common Stock other than a change covered by Section 6.1.1, 6.1.2 or Section 6.1.3 hereof or that solely affects the par value of such Common Stock, or in the case of any share reconstruction or amalgamation or consolidation of the Company with or into another corporation (other than a consolidation or share reconstruction or amalgamation in which the Company is the continuing corporation and that does not result in any reclassification or reorganization of the outstanding Common Stock), or in the case of any sale or conveyance to another corporation or entity of the property of the Company as an entirety or substantially as an entirety in connection with which the Company is dissolved, the Holder of this Purchase Warrant shall have the right thereafter (until the expiration of the right of exercise of this Purchase Warrant) to receive upon the exercise hereof, for the same aggregate Exercise Price payable hereunder immediately prior to such event, the kind and amount of Common Stock or other securities or property (including cash) receivable upon such reclassification, reorganization, share reconstruction or amalgamation, or consolidation, or upon a dissolution following any such sale or transfer, by a Holder of the number of shares of Common Stock of the Company obtainable upon exercise of this Purchase Warrant immediately prior to such event; and if any reclassification also results in a change in Common Stock covered by Section 6.1.1, 6.1.2 or Section 6.1.3, then such adjustment shall be made pursuant to Section 6.1.1, Section 6.1.2, 6.1.3 and this Section 6.1.34 The provisions of this Section 6.1.4 shall similarly apply to successive reclassifications, reorganizations, share reconstructions or amalgamations, or consolidations, sales or other transfers.

6.1.5 Fundamental Transaction. If, at any time while this Purchase Warrant is outstanding, (i) the Company, directly or indirectly, in one or more related transactions effects any merger or consolidation of the Company with or into another Person, (ii) the Company, directly or indirectly, effects any sale, lease, license, assignment, transfer, conveyance or other disposition of all or substantially all of its assets in one or a series of related transactions, (iii) any direct or indirect purchase offer, tender offer or exchange offer (whether by the Company or another Person) is completed pursuant to which holders of the Common Stock are permitted to sell, tender or exchange their shares for other securities, cash or property and has been accepted by the holders of 50% or more of the outstanding Common Stock, (iv) the Company, directly or indirectly, in one or more related transactions effects any reclassification, reorganization or recapitalization of the Common Stock or any compulsory share exchange pursuant to which the Common Stock is effectively converted into or exchanged for other securities, cash or property, or (v) the Company, directly or indirectly, in one or more related transactions consummates a stock or share purchase agreement or other business combination (including, without limitation, a reorganization, recapitalization, spinoff or scheme of arrangement) with another Person or group of Persons whereby such other Person or group acquires more than 50% of the outstanding Common Stock (not including any Common Stock held by the other Person or other Persons making or party to, or associated or affiliated with, the other Persons making or party to such stock or share purchase agreement or other business combination) (each a “Fundamental Transaction”), then, upon any subsequent exercise of this Purchase Warrant, the Holder shall have the right to receive, for each Purchase Warrant Share that would have been issuable upon such exercise immediately prior to the occurrence of such Fundamental Transaction, the number Common Stock of the successor or acquiring corporation or of the Company, if it is the surviving corporation, and any additional or alternative consideration (the “Alternative Consideration”) receivable as a result of such Fundamental Transaction by a holder of the number of shares of Common Stock for which this Purchase Warrant is exercisable immediately prior to such Fundamental Transaction. For purposes of any such exercise, the determination of the Exercise Price shall be appropriately adjusted to apply to such Alternative Consideration based on the amount of Alternative Consideration issuable in respect of one share of Common Stock in such Fundamental Transaction, and the Company shall apportion the Exercise Price among the Alternative Consideration in a reasonable manner reflecting the relative value of any different components of the Alternative Consideration. If holders of the Common Stock are given any choice as to the securities, cash or property to be received in a Fundamental Transaction, then the Holder shall be given the same choice as to the Alternative Consideration it receives upon any exercise of this Purchase Warrant following such Fundamental Transaction. The Company shall cause any successor entity in a Fundamental Transaction in which the Company is not the survivor (the “Successor Entity”) to assume in writing all of the obligations of the Company under this Purchase Warrant, and to deliver to the Holder in exchange for this Purchase Warrant a security of the Successor Entity evidenced by a written instrument substantially similar in form and substance to this Purchase Warrant which is exercisable for a corresponding number of shares of capital stock of such Successor Entity (or its parent entity) equivalent to the Common Stock acquirable and receivable upon exercise of this Purchase Warrant prior to such Fundamental Transaction, and with an exercise price which applies the Exercise Price hereunder to such shares of capital stock (but taking into account the relative value of the Common Stock pursuant to such Fundamental Transaction and the value of such shares of capital stock, such number of shares of capital stock and such exercise price being for the purpose of protecting the economic value of this Purchase Warrant immediately prior to the consummation of such Fundamental Transaction). Upon the occurrence of any such Fundamental Transaction, the Successor Entity shall succeed to, and be substituted for (so that from and after the date of such Fundamental Transaction, the provisions of this Purchase Warrant and the other Transaction Documents referring to the “Company” shall refer instead to the Successor Entity), and may exercise every right and power of, the Company and shall assume all of the obligations of the Company, under this Purchase Warrant and the other Transaction Documents with the same effect as if such Successor Entity had been named as the Company herein.

6.1.6 Changes in Form of Purchase Warrant. This form of Purchase Warrant need not be changed because of any change pursuant to this Section 6.1, and Purchase Warrants issued after such change may state the same Exercise Price and the same number of shares of Common Stock as are stated in the Purchase Warrants initially issued pursuant to this Agreement. The acceptance by any Holder of the issuance of new Purchase Warrants reflecting a required or permissive change shall not be deemed to waive any rights to an adjustment occurring after the date hereof or the computation thereof.

6.2 Substitute Purchase Warrant. In case of any consolidation of the Company with, or share reconstruction or amalgamation of the Company with or into, another corporation (other than a consolidation or share reconstruction or amalgamation which does not result in any reclassification or change of the outstanding Common Stock), the corporation formed by such consolidation or share reconstruction or amalgamation shall execute and deliver to the Holder a supplemental Purchase Warrant providing that the holder of each Purchase Warrant then outstanding or to be outstanding shall have the right thereafter (until the stated expiration of such Purchase Warrant) to receive, upon exercise of such Purchase Warrant, the kind and amount of shares of Common Stock and other securities and property receivable upon such consolidation or share reconstruction or amalgamation, by a holder of the number of shares of Common Stock of the Company for which such Purchase Warrant might have been exercised immediately prior to such consolidation, share reconstruction or amalgamation, sale or transfer. Such supplemental Purchase Warrant shall provide for adjustments which shall be identical to the adjustments provided for in this Section 6. The above provision of this Section 6 shall similarly apply to successive consolidations or share reconstructions or amalgamations.

6.3 Elimination of Fractional Interests. The Company shall not be required to issue certificates representing fractions of a share of Common Stock upon the exercise of the Purchase Warrant, nor shall it be required to issue scrip or pay cash in lieu of any fractional interests, it being the intent of the parties that all fractional interests shall be eliminated by rounding any fraction up to the nearest whole number of shares of Common Stock or other securities, properties or rights.

7. Reservation and Listing. The Company shall at all times reserve and keep available out of its authorized Common Stock, solely for the purpose of issuance upon exercise of this Purchase Warrant, such number of shares of Common Stock or other securities, properties or rights as shall be issuable upon the exercise thereof. The Company covenants and agrees that, upon exercise of this Purchase Warrant and payment of the Exercise Price therefor, in accordance with the terms hereby, all Common Stock and other securities issuable upon such exercise shall be duly and validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable and not subject to preemptive rights of any shareholder. As long as this Purchase Warrant shall be outstanding, the Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause this Purchase Warrant and all Common Stock issuable upon exercise of this Purchase Warrant to be listed (subject to official notice of issuance) on all national securities exchanges (or, if applicable, on the OTCQB Market or any successor quotation system) on which the Common Stock issued to the public in the Offering may then be listed and/or quoted (if at all).

8. Certain Notice Requirements.

WallachBeth Capital, LLC

Harborside Financial Plaza 5

185 Hudson St., Suite 1410

Jersey City, NJ 07311

As Representative of the several Underwriters named on Schedule 1 to the Underwriting Agreement referenced below

Ladies and Gentlemen:

The undersigned understands that WallachBeth Capital, LLC (the “Representative”), proposes to enter into an Underwriting Agreement (the “Underwriting Agreement”) with bioAffinity Technologies, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), providing for the public offering (the “Public Offering”) of shares of common stock, par value $0.007 per share, of the Company (the “Common Stock”). Terms not defined herein shall have the meaning given to them in the Underwriting Agreement.

To induce the Representative to continue its efforts in connection with the Public Offering, the undersigned hereby agrees that, without the prior written consent of the Representative, the undersigned will not, during the period commencing on the date hereof and ending one hundred eighty (180) days after the effective date of the Registration Statement on Form S-1 relating to the Public Offering (the “Lock-Up Period”), (1) offer, pledge, sell, contract to sell, grant, lend, or otherwise transfer or dispose of, directly or indirectly, any Common Stock or any securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for Common Stock, whether now owned or hereafter acquired by the undersigned or with respect to which the undersigned has or hereafter acquires the power of disposition (collectively, the “Lock-Up Securities”); (2) enter into any swap or other arrangement that transfers to another, in whole or in part, any of the economic consequences of ownership of the Lock-Up Securities, whether any such transaction described in clause (1) or (2) above is to be settled by delivery of Lock-Up Securities, in cash or otherwise; (3) make any demand for or exercise any right with respect to the registration of any Lock-Up Securities; or (4) publicly disclose the intention to make any offer, sale, pledge or disposition, or to enter into any transaction, swap, hedge or other arrangement relating to any Lock-Up Securities. Notwithstanding the foregoing, and subject to the conditions below, the undersigned may transfer Lock-Up Securities without the prior written consent of the Representative in connection with (a) transactions relating to Lock-Up Securities acquired in open market transactions after the completion of the Public Offering; provided that no filing under Section 13 or Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), or other public announcement shall be required or shall be voluntarily made in connection with subsequent sales of Lock-Up Securities acquired in such open market transactions; (b) transfers of Lock-Up Securities as a bona fide gift, by will or intestacy or to a family member or trust for the benefit of the undersigned (for purposes of this lock-up agreement, “family member” means any relationship by blood, marriage or adoption, not more remote than first cousin); (c) transfers of Lock-Up Securities to a charity or educational institution; (d) if the undersigned is a corporation, partnership, limited liability company or other business entity, (i) any transfers of Lock-Up Securities to another corporation, partnership or other business entity that controls, is controlled by or is under common control with the undersigned or (ii) distributions of Lock-Up Securities to members, partners, stockholders, subsidiaries or affiliates (as defined in Rule 405 promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended) of the undersigned; (e) if the undersigned is a trust, to a trustee or beneficiary of the trust; provided that in the case of any transfer pursuant to the foregoing clauses (b), (c) (d) or (e), (i) any such transfer shall not involve a disposition for value, (ii) each transferee shall sign and deliver to the Representative a lock-up agreement substantially in the form of this lock-up agreement and (iii) no filing under Section 13 or Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act or other public announcement shall be required or shall be voluntarily made during the Lock-Up Period; (f) the receipt by the undersigned from the Company of Common Stock upon the vesting of restricted stock awards or stock units or upon the exercise of options to purchase the Company’s Common Stock issued under an equity incentive plan of the Company or an employment arrangement described in the Pricing Prospectus (as defined in the Underwriting Agreement) (the “Plan Shares”) or the transfer or withholding of Common Stock or any securities convertible into Common Stock to the Company upon a vesting event of the Company’s securities or upon the exercise of options to purchase the Company’s securities, in each case on a “cashless” or “net exercise” basis or to cover tax obligations of the undersigned in connection with such vesting or exercise, provided that if the undersigned is required to file a report under Section 13 or Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act reporting a reduction in beneficial ownership of Common Stock during the Lock-Up Period, the undersigned shall include a statement in such schedule or report to the effect that the purpose of such transfer was to cover tax withholding obligations of the undersigned in connection with such vesting or exercise and, provided further, that the Plan Shares shall be subject to the terms of this lock-up agreement; (g) the transfer of Lock-Up Securities pursuant to agreements described in the Pricing Prospectus under which the Company has the option to repurchase such securities or a right of first refusal with respect to the transfer of such securities, provided that if the undersigned is required to file a report under Section 13 or Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act reporting a reduction in beneficial ownership of Common Stock during the Lock-Up Period, the undersigned shall include a statement in such schedule or report describing the purpose of the transaction; (h) the establishment of a trading plan pursuant to Rule 10b5-1 under the Exchange Act for the transfer of Lock-Up Securities, provided that (i) such plan does not provide for the transfer of Lock-Up Securities during the Lock-Up Period and (ii) to the extent a public announcement or filing under the Exchange Act, if any, is required of or voluntarily made by or on behalf of the undersigned or the Company regarding the establishment of such plan, such public announcement or filing shall include a statement to the effect that no transfer of Lock-Up Securities may be made under such plan during the Lock-Up Period; (i) the transfer of Lock-Up Securities that occurs by operation of law, such as pursuant to a qualified domestic order or in connection with a divorce settlement, provided that the transferee agrees to sign and deliver a lock-up agreement substantially in the form of this lock-up agreement for the balance of the Lock-Up Period, and provided further, that any filing under Section 13 or Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act that is required to be made during the Lock-Up Period as a result of such transfer shall include a statement that such transfer has occurred by operation of law; and (j) the transfer of Lock- Up Securities pursuant to a bona fide third party tender offer, merger, consolidation or other similar transaction made to all holders of the Common Stock involving a change of control (as defined below) of the Company after the closing of the Public Offering and approved by the Company’s board of directors; provided that in the event that the tender offer, merger, consolidation or other such transaction is not completed, the Lock-Up Securities owned by the undersigned shall remain subject to the restrictions contained in this lock-up agreement. For purposes of clause (j) above, “change of control” shall mean the consummation of any bona fide third party tender offer, merger, amalgamation, consolidation or other similar transaction the result of which is that any “person” (as defined in Section 13(d)(3) of the Exchange Act), or group of persons, becomes the beneficial owner (as defined in Rules 13d-3 and 13d- 5 of the Exchange Act) of a majority of total voting power of the voting stock of the Company. The undersigned also agrees and consents to the entry of stop transfer instructions with the Company’s transfer agent and registrar against the transfer of the undersigned’s Lock-Up Securities except in compliance with this lock-up agreement.

If the undersigned is an officer or director of the Company, (i) the Representative agrees that, at least three (3) Business Days before the effective date of any release or waiver of the foregoing restrictions in connection with a transfer of Lock-Up Securities, the Representative will notify the Company of the impending release or waiver; and (ii) the Company has agreed in the Underwriting Agreement to announce the impending release or waiver by press release through a major news service at least two (2) Business Days before the effective date of the release or waiver. Any release or waiver granted by the Representative hereunder to any such officer or director shall only be effective two (2) Business Days after the publication date of such press release. The provisions of this paragraph will not apply if (a) the release or waiver is effected solely to permit a transfer of Lock-Up Securities not for consideration and (b) the transferee has agreed in writing to be bound by the same terms described in this lock-up agreement to the extent and for the duration that such terms remain in effect at the time of such transfer.

The undersigned understands that the Company and the Representative are relying upon this lock-up agreement in proceeding toward consummation of the Public Offering. The undersigned further understands that this lock-up agreement is irrevocable and shall be binding upon the undersigned’s heirs, legal representatives, successors and assigns.

Gentlepersons:

We have acted as counsel to bioAffinity Technologies, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), in connection with the registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”) of: (i) 1,285,325 Units (the “Firm Units”) at an estimated initial public offering price between $6.00 and $6.25 per Firm Unit (the “Price Range”), each Firm Unit consisting of (1) one share of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.007 per share (the “Common Stock”), (2) one five-year tradeable warrant (a “Tradeable Warrant”) to purchase one share of Common Stock at an exercise price equal to 120% of the assumed public offering price of $6.125 per Firm Unit (the “Unit Offering Price”), which is the midpoint of the Price Range, and (3) one five-year non-tradeable warrant (a “Non-tradeable Warrant”; together with each Tradeable Warrant, the “Warrants”) to purchase one share of Common Stock at an exercise price equal to 125% of the Unit Offering Price; (ii) up to an additional 192,799 shares of Common Stock (the “Option Shares”) and/or 192,799 Non-tradeable Warrants and/or 192,799 Tradeable Warrants (such additional Non-tradeable Warrants or Tradeable Warrants, the “Option Warrants”), pursuant to an option granted by the Company to the underwriters listed on Schedule I hereto (the “Underwriters”); (iii) the warrant to be issued to WallachBeth Capital, LLC as representative of the Underwriters (the “Representative”; such warrant, the “Representative’s Warrant”); and (iv) the shares of Common Stock underlying the Warrants (the “Warrant Shares”), the Option Warrants (the “Option Warrant Shares”), and the Representative’s Warrant (the “Representative’s Warrant Shares”; together with the Firm Units, the Common Stock issued as part of the Firm Units, the Option Shares, the Warrant Shares, the Option Warrant Shares, the Warrants, the Option Warrants, and the Representative’s Warrant, the “Securities”), and the public offering thereof pursuant to that certain Underwriting Agreement dated [*], 2022 (the “Underwriting Agreement”), by and between the Company and the Representative of the Underwriters, pursuant to which the Company has agreed to sell and the Underwriters have agreed to purchase the Firm Units, the Option Shares and/or the Option Warrants. This opinion is given to you pursuant to Section 6(c) of the Underwriting Agreement. Unless defined herein, capitalized terms have the meanings given to them in the Underwriting Agreement.

I.	In our capacity as counsel to the Company and in connection with this opinion letter, we have examined and relied upon the following:

	1.	executed counterparts of the Underwriting Agreement;

	2.	executed counterparts of the Tradeable Warrant to be issued as a part of each Firm Unit;

	3.	executed counterparts of the Non-Tradeable Warrant to be issued as a part of each Firm Unit;

	4.	the Warrant Agent Agreement between the Company and VStock Transfer, LLC (the “Warrant Agent”);

	5.	executed counterparts of the Representative’s Warrant issued to the Representative dated [*], 2022;

	6.	the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation, as amended, certified by the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware as of June 23, 2022 (the “Certificate of Incorporation”), and the Amended and Restated Bylaws of the Company, adopted March 17, 2022, as currently in effect, certified by the Secretary of the Company as of the date hereof (the “Bylaws”);

	7.	those records of the proceedings and actions of the stockholders and the Board of Directors of the Company as we have deemed necessary or appropriate to render the opinions expressed herein, as well as a copy of the stock transfer ledger of the Company, certified in each case by the Secretary of the Company as of the date hereof;

	8.	a certificate of the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware dated August 8, 2022, to the effect that the Company is duly incorporated and validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the State of Delaware;

	9.	a certificate of the Secretary of State of Texas dated August 8, 2022, to the effect that the Company holds a certificate of authority to transact business in Texas and is in existence;

	10.	a signed copy of the pre-effective Amendment No. [6] to the Registration Statement on Form S-1 (Registration No. 333-264463) with respect to the Firm Units declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) under the Securities Act on [*], 2022, and signed copies of the Registration Statement as initially filed with the Commission on April 25, 2022 and pre-effective Amendments Nos. 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5 to the Registration Statement filed with the Commission on May 25, 2022, June 16, 2022, July 28, 2022, August 2, 2022, and August 5, 2022, respectively (collectively, the “Registration Statement”);

	11.	written confirmation from the staff of the Commission on [], 2022, as to the issuance of an order declaring the Registration Statement effective at [4:30] p.m. Eastern Daylight Time on [], 2022, and the absence of any order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement or of any proceedings for that purpose;

	17.	such other certificates, documents and records as we have deemed necessary or appropriate to express the opinions set forth herein.

II.	In basing the opinions and other matters set forth herein on “our knowledge” or information “known to us,” or “of which we are aware” the words “our knowledge,” “known to us” and “aware” signify that, in the course of our representation of the Company in matters with respect to which we have been engaged by the Company as counsel, no information has come to our attention that would give us actual knowledge or actual notice that any such opinions or other matters are not accurate. Except as otherwise stated herein, we have undertaken no independent investigation or verification of such matters, whether or not such investigation or verification might otherwise be reasonable or prudent. Although we act as counsel to the Company with respect to specific matters on a regular basis, we do not act as counsel to the Company as to all matters and, therefore, we may be unaware of certain of its business dealings. Our knowledge of factual matters regarding the Company is based upon those matters with respect to which we have rendered advice and matters which the Company has disclosed to us, upon inquiry or otherwise. The words “our knowledge,” “known to us,” “of which we are aware,” and similar language used herein are limited to the knowledge of the lawyers within our firm who have provided substantive legal attention to matters on behalf of the Company in the form of legal consultations or legal representation in connection with the Registration Statement, Time of Sale Disclosure Package and Pricing Prospectus, which knowledge has been obtained by such lawyers in their capacities as such.

III.	In reaching the opinions set forth below, we have assumed, and to our knowledge there are no facts inconsistent with, the following:

	1.	the genuineness of all signatures and the accuracy, completeness and authenticity of all instruments, documents and agreements submitted to us as originals;

	2.	the conformity to original documents (and the accuracy, completeness and authenticity of such original documents) of all instruments, documents and agreements submitted to us as certified, facsimile, or photostatic copies;

	3.	the accuracy, completeness and authenticity of certifications of public officials and corporate officials and of the statements of facts contained in certifications thereby upon which we are relying for purposes of this opinion;

	4.	that each of the parties thereto (other than the Company) has duly authorized, executed and delivered the Underwriting Agreement, and each such party’s (other than the Company) obligations as set forth therein are its legal, valid, and binding obligations, enforceable in accordance with their respective terms;

	5.	that each party executing the Underwriting Agreement (other than the Company) has all requisite corporate or other power to execute and deliver the Underwriting Agreement and to perform such party’s obligations thereunder;

	6.	that each natural person executing any such instrument, document, or agreement is legally competent to do so at the time of execution;

	7.	that there are no oral or written waivers, modifications of or amendments to the Underwriting Agreement or any of the Listed Agreements, by actions or conduct of the parties thereto or otherwise, and

	8.	that there are no records of any proceedings or actions of the stockholders or the Board of Directors of the Company which have not been provided to us.

IV.	Based upon and subject to the foregoing and the qualifications and limitations, it is our opinion that:

	1.	The Company is a corporation duly incorporated, validly existing as a corporation in good standing under the laws of the State of Delaware. The Company has the corporate power and authority to own, lease and operate its properties and assets and to carry on its business as described in the Registration Statement, the Time of Sale Disclosure Package, and the Pricing Prospectus.

	2.	Based solely on our review of the Certificate of Incorporation, as amended to date, Bylaws, as amended to date, and the Company’s stock records, the authorized capital stock of the Company is as set forth in the Registration Statement, the Time of Sale Disclosure Package and the Pricing Prospectus under the caption “Description of Capital Stock.” The Firm Units, Common Stock, Warrants and Warrant Shares delivered by the Company on the date hereof have been duly authorized and, when issued and paid for as applicable and in accordance with the Underwriting Agreement, will be validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable. The Representative’s Warrant and the Representative’s Warrant Shares have been duly authorized, and upon proper exercise and payment therefor, assuming (i) that there is a sufficient number of authorized and unissued shares of Common Stock at the time of the Representative’s Warrant exercise, (ii) no change has occurred in the applicable law or the pertinent facts, and (iii) the pertinent provisions of such “blue-sky” and securities laws as may be applicable have been complied with by the Company, when and if issued, the Representative’s Warrant Shares will be validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable. The issuance and sale of the Securities by the Company pursuant to the Underwriting Agreement are not subject to any written preemptive rights, written right of first offer or written right of first refusal in each case, pursuant to the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws, or the laws of the State of Delaware that have not otherwise been waived or satisfied.

	3.	The Underwriting Agreement, the Warrants and the Representative’s Warrant have been duly authorized, executed and delivered by the Company. The Company has all the requisite corporate power and authority to enter into the Underwriting Agreement, the Warrants and the Representative’s Warrant and to perform its obligations thereunder.

	4.	The Underwriting Agreement, the Warrants and the Representative’s Warrant constitute the valid and legally binding obligation of the Company, enforceable against the Company in accordance with its respective terms.

	5.	The execution, delivery and performance of the Underwriting Agreement, the Warrants and the Representative’s Warrant and compliance by the Company with the terms and provisions thereof and the consummation of the transactions contemplated thereby, and the issuance and sale of the Securities do not and will not, with or without the giving of notice or the lapse of time, or both, (a) conflict with, or result in a breach of, any of the terms or provisions of, or constitute a default under, or result in the creation or modification of any lien, security interest, charge or encumbrance upon any of the properties or assets of the Company pursuant to the terms of any agreement filed as an exhibit to the Registration Statement, or (b) result in any violation of the provisions of the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation or Bylaws, as amended, or (c) result in any violation of any Federal or State law or regulation, or (d) result in any violation of any Listed Agreement.

	6.	The execution and delivery by the Company of the Underwriting Agreement, the Warrants and the Representative’s Warrant, the performance by the Company of its obligations under the Underwriting Agreement and the Securities does not violate any judgment or order of any Federal or State governmental authority of which we are aware.

	7.	To our knowledge after due inquiry, other than as set forth in the Registration Statement, the Time of Sale Disclosure Package and the Pricing Prospectus, there are no legal or governmental proceedings pending to which the Company or any director or officer or controlling shareholder is a party or of which any property of the Company is or the subject which, if determined adversely to the Company, a director, officer or controlling shareholder would have a material adverse effect on the general affairs, business, management, financial position, shareholders’ equity or results of operations of the Company or would prevent or impair the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Underwriting Agreement, or which are required to be described in the Registration Statement, the Time of Sale Disclosure Package and the Pricing Prospectus.

	8.	The information in the Registration Statement, the Time of Sale Disclosure Package and the Pricing Prospectus under the headings “Business – Legal Proceedings,” “Description of Capital Stock,” and in Part II of the Registration Statement under Items 14 and 15, in each case insofar as such statements purport to constitute summaries of legal matters or specific provisions of documents referred to therein, fairly summarize in all material respects the matters referred to therein.

	9.	The Securities will be issued in compliance with applicable United States securities laws, rules and regulations and will conform in all material respects to the descriptions thereof contained in the Registration Statement, the Time of Sale Disclosure Package and the Pricing Prospectus.

	10.	No consent, approval, authorization or other order of, or registration or filing with, any Federal or State governmental or regulatory authority or agency is required for the execution, delivery and performance by the Company of the Underwriting Agreement, and the issuance and sale of the Securities except for (i) the registration of the offer and sale of the Securities under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, which has been effected, and (ii) such consents, approvals, authorizations, orders and registrations or filings as may be required (A) under applicable State securities laws, as to which we express no opinion, (B) from the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, Inc. as to which we express no opinion, and (C) from The Nasdaq Capital Market in connection with the purchase and distribution of the Firm Units by the Underwriters, which has been obtained.

	11.	Other than the Listed Agreements, no other contracts of which we are aware are required to be described or referred to in or filed as exhibits to the Registration Statement or the Final Prospectus.

	12.	Other than the Representative’s Warrant, none of the Listed Agreements grant any holders of securities of the Company rights to require the registration under the Securities Act of resales of such securities in the Registration Statement or otherwise.

	13.	The Company is not and, after giving effect to the offering and sale of the Securities and the application of the proceeds thereof as described in the Registration Statement, the Time of Sale Disclosure Package and the Pricing Prospectus, will not be an “investment company” as defined in the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended.

	14.	The Registration Statement was declared effective by the Commission on [*], 2022. No stop order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement has been issued by the Commission and to our knowledge, no proceeding for that purpose has been instituted by the Commission. The Prospectus was filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) under the Securities Act in the manner and within the time period required by such Rule 424(b).

	15.	The Registration Statement and the Time of Sale Disclosure Package including any information deemed to be part of the Registration Statement pursuant to Rule 430A under the Securities Act, as of its effective date, and the Pricing Prospectus and as of its date (and, in each case, other than the Company financial statements and related schedules, and other financial and statistical data, contained therein or omitted therefrom, as to which we express no opinion or belief), appeared on their face to comply as to form in all material respects with the requirements of the Securities Act and the rules and regulations of the Commission promulgated thereunder.

We confirm to you that we are not representing the Company in any pending litigation in which the Company is a named defendant that challenges the validity or enforceability of the Underwriting Agreement or seeks to enjoin the performance of the Underwriting Agreement.

With respect to paragraph 4, we express no opinion herein as to the following: (i) the effects of bankruptcy, fraudulent transfer and conveyance, insolvency, reorganization, receivership, moratorium and other similar laws affecting the rights and remedies of creditors generally, including judicially developed doctrines in this area, such as substantive consolidation of entities and equitable subordination; (ii) the effects of general principles of equity, including, without limitation, concepts of reasonableness, good faith and fair dealing and the possible unavailability of specific performance, injunctive relief, or other equitable remedies, whether applied by a court of law or equity; (iii) the enforceability of provisions in any agreement referred to herein relating to delay or omission of enforcement of rights or remedies, or waivers of defenses, waivers of jury trials, or waivers of benefits of stay, extension, moratorium, statutes of limitation or other nonwaivable benefits bestowed by operation of law; (iv) the enforceability of any choice of law or consent to jurisdiction provision in any agreement referred to herein; (v) the enforceability of the indemnification or contribution provisions in any agreement referred to herein to the extent such provisions purport to indemnify any party against the consequences of its own negligence, gross negligence, recklessness, willful misconduct, fraud or similar illegal conduct; (vi) whether a court would grant any remedy sought with respect to immaterial breaches or to the extent any party has acted in bad faith in exercising remedies; or (vii) whether a court would grant a particular remedy provided for in the Underwriting Agreement as opposed to another remedy provided for in the Underwriting Agreement or at law or in equity. In addition, certain other provisions of the Underwriting Agreement otherwise addressed in our enforceability opinion might not be enforceable under the applicable law but, in our opinion (and subject to the other, assumptions, limitations, qualifications and exceptions of this opinion letter), those provisions, even if unenforceable, would not (individually or in the aggregate) render the Underwriting Agreement unenforceable as a whole or result in the intended beneficiaries having inadequate rights and remedies under the Underwriting Agreement and applicable law for the practical realization of the principal benefits intended by the Underwriting Agreement. In all cases, we assume that a court would sever an unenforceable provision from the Underwriting Agreement, even in the absence of a severability clause.

We are members of the bar of the States of Texas and New York, and the opinions expressed herein are limited to the existing laws of the States of Texas and New York (not including the state securities or blue sky laws thereof), the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware, and the federal laws of the United States of America, in each case excluding the principles of conflicts of laws thereof. We express no opinion as to the effect of the laws of any other jurisdiction, do not purport to be experts in the laws of any other jurisdiction, and disclaim any opinion as to the application or effect of any statute, rule, regulation, ordinance, order or other promulgation of any other jurisdiction.

We express no opinion as to the accuracy or completeness of any statements contained in the Registration Statement, the Time of Sale Disclosure Package, the Pricing Prospectus, or any document incorporated by reference therein relating to matters regulated by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, the United States Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act, as amended, the Clinical Laboratory Improvement Amendments of 1988, as amended, the rules and regulations under any of the foregoing or the laws of any jurisdiction other than the laws of the jurisdictions set forth in the paragraph immediately above.

The opinions express herein are based upon the law and circumstances as they are in effect or exist on the date hereof, and we assume no obligation to revise or supplement this letter in the event of future changes in the law or interpretations thereof with respect to circumstances or events that may occur subsequent to the date hereof.

The opinions expressed in paragraph 1 above as to the good standing of the Company are (i) given solely on the basis of the certificate of the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware dated August 8, 2022, and the certificate of the Secretary of State of Texas dated August 8, 2022, and speak only as to the date of each such certificate and not as of the date hereof, and (ii) limited to the meaning ascribed to such certificates by such governmental authorities and applicable law.

This opinion letter is limited to the matters set forth herein, and no opinion is implied or may be inferred beyond the matters expressly stated herein.

The opinions expressed herein are solely for your benefit in connection with the closing of the transactions contemplated by the Underwriting Agreement and may not be used or relied upon by you or any other person for any other purpose whatsoever without, in each instance, our prior express written consent. This opinion may not be quoted or used in whole or in part for any purpose nor may copies be provided to any person without our prior express written consent.

Respectfully Submitted,

Gentlepersons:

We have acted as legal counsel to bioAffinity Technologies, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), in connection with the registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”) of: (i) 1,285,325 Units (the “Units”) with an estimated initial offering price between $6.00 and $6.25 per Unit (the “Price Range”), each Unit consisting of (1) one share of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.007 per share (the “Common Stock”), (2) one five-year tradeable warrant (a “Tradeable Warrant”) to purchase one share of Common Stock at an exercise price equal to 120% of the assumed public offering price of $6.125 per Unit (the “Unit Offering Price”), which is the midpoint of the Price Range, and (3) one five-year non-tradeable warrant (a “Non-tradeable Warrant”; together with each Tradeable Warrant, the “Warrants”) to purchase one share of Common Stock at an exercise price equal to 125% of the Unit Offering Price; (ii) up to an additional 192,799 shares of Common Stock (the “Option Shares”) and/or 192,799 Non-tradeable Warrants and/or 192,799 Tradeable Warrants (such additional Non-tradeable Warrants or Tradeable Warrants, the “Option Warrants”), pursuant to an option granted by the Company to the underwriters listed on Schedule I hereto (the “Underwriters”); (iii) the warrant to be issued to WallachBeth Capital, LLC as representative of the Underwriters (the “Representative”; such warrant, the “Representative’s Warrant”); and (iv) the shares of Common Stock underlying the Warrants (the “Warrant Shares”), the Option Warrants (the “Option Warrant Shares”), and the Representative’s Warrant (the “Representative’s Warrant Shares”; together with the Units, the Common Stock issued as part of the Units, the Option Shares, the Warrant Shares, the Option Warrant Shares, the Representative’s Warrant Shares, the Warrants, the Option Warrants, and the Representative’s Warrant, the “Securities”), and the public offering thereof pursuant to that certain Underwriting Agreement dated [*], 2022 (the “Underwriting Agreement”), by and between the Company and the Representative of the Underwriters, pursuant to which the Company has agreed to sell and the Underwriters have agreed to purchase the Units, the Option Shares and/or the Option Warrants. This letter is furnished to you pursuant to Section 6(c) of the Underwriting Agreement. Unless defined herein, capitalized terms have the meanings given to them in the Underwriting Agreement.

During the course of the preparation of the Registration Statement on Form S-1 (File No. 333-264463), as amended by Amendments Nos. 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6 thereto (the “Registration Statement”) filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”), as legal counsel to the Company, we reviewed the Registration Statement, the preliminary Prospectus dated [*], 2022, as filed with the Commission (the “Preliminary Prospectus”), and the preliminary Prospectus dated [*], 2022, as filed with the Commission (the “Pricing Prospectus”), and certain corporate records and documents furnished to us by the Company and participated in conferences with officers and other representatives of the Company, with representatives of the independent public accountants of the Company and with you and your representatives at which the contents of the Registration Statement, the Preliminary Prospectus, and the Pricing Prospectus and related matters were discussed. The purpose of our professional engagement was not to establish or confirm factual matters set forth in the Registration Statement, the Preliminary Prospectus, or the Pricing Prospectus. We have not undertaken any obligation to verify independently any of those factual matters, and have expressly relied on the Company management and others with respect to the adequacy of disclosure with respect to such matters. Accordingly, we do not assume any responsibility for the accuracy, completeness, or fairness of the statements in the Registration Statement, the Preliminary Prospectus or the Pricing Prospectus. Nothing herein shall be construed to cause us to be considered “experts” within the meaning of Section 11 of the Securities Act.

Subject to the foregoing and on our understanding of the United States federal securities laws and the experience we have gained in our practice thereunder, and relying as to certain factual matters on the representations and statements of the officers and other representatives of the Company and on the representations, warranties and covenants contained in the Underwriting Agreement no fact has come to our attention that causes us to believe (meaning, that those attorneys in our firm who have rendered legal services in connection with the offering of the Securities do not have actual knowledge) that the Registration Statement, at the time it became effective, the Preliminary Prospectus as of its date, or the Pricing Prospectus, as of its date or the date hereof, contained any untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.

Our comments above do not extend to, and we express no opinion or view with respect to:

	(i)	the financial statements, the accountants’ reports, the supporting schedules, and notes or other financial or accounting data or forecasts or estimates, including, without limitation, with respect to assessments or reports on the effectiveness of internal controls over financial reporting;

	(ii)	statistical data and other numerical information, including, without limitation (a) information about the Company’s industry or its competitors; (b) information about industry sales; (c) market share information; (d) operating metrics; and (e) projections; or

	(iii)	other information that is opined upon by the Company’s Special Intellectual Property Counsel, Food and Drug Counsel, or general counsel;

in each case, included in or omitted from the Registration Statement, the Preliminary Prospectus or the Pricing Prospectus, or the statements contained in the exhibits to the Registration Statement, as to which we have not been requested to comment.

This letter is rendered solely to you for the benefit of the Underwriters pursuant to Section 6(c) of the Underwriting Agreement in connection with the offer and sale of the Securities pursuant to the Underwriting Agreement for purposes of assisting the Underwriters in establishing defenses under applicable securities laws. This letter may not be used, quoted, relied upon or otherwise referred to for any other purpose or by any person other than the Underwriters without our express prior written consent. This letter is rendered to you for the benefit of the Underwriters as of the date hereof and is not to be deemed to have been reissued by any subsequent delivery as permitted above, and we assume no obligation to advise you or any other person hereafter with regard to any change after the date hereof in the circumstances or the law that may bear on the matters set forth herein even though the change may affect the legal analysis or a legal conclusion or other matters in this letter.

Respectfully Submitted,

EXHIBIT E

Opinion of Peacock Law, P.C.

1. Attached Exhibit A lists all United States and international patent and trademark properties owned by the Company or a wholly-owned subsidiary under the Company’s control (referred to as the “Company IP Portfolio”). To our knowledge, assignment documents have been recorded with the United States Patent and Trademark Office (“USPTO”) showing ownership by the Company (or a wholly-owned subsidiary under the Company’s control) for the United States patent properties. To our knowledge, assignment documents have been recorded with the European Patent Office (“EPO”) and other foreign patent agencies or offices (“OPO”) showing transfer of ownership to the Company (or a wholly-owned subsidiary under the Company’s control) for the non-United States patent properties. Capitalized terms not defined herein are defined in the Underwriting Agreement by and between the Company and WallachBeth Capital, LLC dated [*], 2022, of which this opinion is an exhibit.

2. There are no pending or threatened legal or governmental proceedings, and there are no allegations on the part of any person or entity of infringement, to patent rights, trade secrets or other proprietary information or know-how of the Company with the sole exception of patent and trademark prosecution before the USPTO, EPO or the OPO or similar foreign entity, and no such proceedings are currently threatened or contemplated.

3. To our knowledge, the Company is not infringing or otherwise violating any patents of any person and, to our knowledge, no person is infringing or otherwise violating any of Company’s patents in the Company IP Portfolio, trade secrets, trademarks, service marks, copyrights or other proprietary information or know-how of the Company.

4. The Company owns or possesses sufficient assignments, licenses, sub-licenses or other rights to use all patents, trade secrets or other proprietary information or know-how necessary to conduct the business now being or proposed to be conducted by Company as described in the Registration Statement.

5.

As the general counsel of bioAffinity Technologies, Inc. a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), I am writing to you in connection with the preparation and filing of the Company’s registration statement on Form S-1 (File No. 333-264463) (“Registration Statement”), as amended, for the offering of: (i) 1,285,325 units (“Firm Units”), each unit consisting of (1) one share of common stock, $0.007 par value per share (“Common Stock”), (2) one five-year tradeable warrant to purchase one share of Common Stock (“Tradeable Warrants”), and (3) one five-year non-tradeable warrant to purchase one share of Common Stock (“Non-tradeable Warrants; together with the Tradeable Warrants, the “Warrants”), and at the election of the Representative (as defined below); (ii) up to an additional 192,799 shares of Common Stock (the “Option Shares”) and/or 192,799 Non-tradeable Warrants and/or 192,799 Tradeable Warrants¹(the “Option Warrants”), pursuant to an option granted by the Company to the underwriters (the “Underwriters”) listed on Schedule I of that certain Underwriting Agreement, dated [*], 2022 (the “Underwriting Agreement”), by and between the Company and WallachBeth Capital, LLC as representative (the “Representative”) of the Underwriters ; (iii) the warrant to be issued to the Representative (the “Representative’s Warrant”); and (iv) the shares of Common Stock underlying the Warrants (“Warrant Shares”), the Option Warrants (“Option Warrant Shares”), and the Representative’s Warrant (“Representative’s Warrant Shares”) (the Units, the Common Stock issued as part of the Units, the Option Shares, the Warrant Shares, the Option Warrant Shares, the Representative’s Warrant Shares, the Warrants, the Option Warrants, and the Representative’s Warrant are collectively referred to herein as the “Securities”). This opinion is given to you pursuant to Section 6(f) of the Underwriting Agreement. Unless defined herein, capitalized terms have the meanings given to them in the Underwriting Agreement.

While acting as general counsel to the Company, I have participated in the preparation of the Registration Statement (including any documents filed as exhibits thereto), filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) on April 25, 2022 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), the Preliminary Prospectus and the Pricing Prospectus dated [*], 2022, as filed by the Company with the Commission on [*], 2022 pursuant to Rule 424(b)(4) under the Securities Act, and have participated in discussions with directors, officers and other representatives of the Company and its subsidiary and its outside counsel and independent auditors and with you and your representatives and your legal counsel at which the contents of the Registration Statement, Preliminary Prospectus and the Pricing Prospectus were discussed and have reviewed the Company’s corporate records and other relevant documents necessary to provide this opinion.

During the above related preparation and review of the Registration Statement, Preliminary Prospectus or the Pricing Prospectus in which I was involved, no fact has come to my attention that has caused me to believe that the Registration Statement at the time it became effective, the Preliminary Prospectus as of its date, or the Pricing Prospectus, as of its date and date hereof, contained any untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to state any material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.

This letter is rendered solely to you for the benefit of the Underwriters pursuant to Section 6(f) of the Underwriting Agreement in connection with the offer and sale of the Common Stock pursuant to the Underwriting Agreement. This letter may not be relied upon by any person other than the Underwriters without my express prior written consent. This letter is rendered to you for the benefit of the Underwriters as of (add date here) and is not to be deemed to have been reissued by any subsequent delivery beyond this date. I assume no obligation to advise you or any other person hereafter with regard to any change after the date of this letter in the circumstances or the law that may bear on the matters set forth herein even though the change may affect the legal analysis or a legal conclusion or other matters in this letter.

	Sincerely,

	Timothy P. Zannes, J.D.

	General Counsel
