Tracy, Preston L. Parrish and Charles F. Betyeman (individually, a "Shareholder" and collectively, the "Shareholders"), in connection with a Stock Purchase Agreement dated August 15,2003 (the "Purchase Agreement"), by and among Virbac Corporation, a Delaware corporation, the Shareholders and the Company. In giving the opinions set forth below, we have examined originals or copies of all such ; agreements, certificates and other documents and records as we have deemed relevant and necessary under the circumstances as the basis for the opinions expressed herein. We have relied as to factual matters upon certificates or advice from appropriate officers of the Company. Capitalized terms used and not defined shall have the same meanings ascribed to such terms in the Purchase Agreement. As used herein, the term "Agreements" shall mean the Purchase Agreement, the Non-Competition Agreements and the Consulting Agreement. For purposes of rendering this opinion, we have assumed that the Agreements have been duly authorized, executed and delivered by you, and we have further assumed the genuineness of all signatures, the authenticity of all documents submitted to us as originals and the conformity to the originals of all documents submitted to us as certified, photostatic or conformed copies. As used herein, the phrase "to the best of our knowledge" shall be deemed to be the actual knowledge of the attorneys in this firm who have worked on matters for the Company and the Shareholders. Based upon the foregoing, we are of the opinion that: 1. The Company is a corporation duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the Commonwealth of Virginia. 2. The Company has the requisite corporate power and all other necessary authority to enter into, execute and deliver the Purchase Agreement and to perform its obligations thereunder. Virbac Corporation August 15, 2003 Page 2 3. The execution and delivery of the Purchase Agreement by the Company has been duly authorized, and the Company and each Shareholder has duly and validly executed and delivered each of the Agreements to which it or he is a party. 4. The Purchase Agreement and the other Agreements to which the Shareholders are party, assuming due execution and delivery by the other parties thereto, constitute valid and binding agreements enforceable in accordance with their respective terms against the Company and each Shareholder, in the case of the Purchase Agreement, and against each Shareholder party to the Agreement, in the case of the other Agreements, except as limited by bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar laws (regardless of whether enforcement is sought in a court of law or equity), and except that the remedy of specific performance may be limited by the equitable discretion of the court before which any proceeding may be brought; and except that we express no opinion regarding the enforceability on any non-competition, non-solicitation or similar provisions included in any of the Agreements. 5. The execution and delivery by the Company and each Shareholder of the Purchase Agreement, the execution and delivery by the Shareholders of the other Agreements to which they are party, and the consummation of the transactions contemplated thereby will not (i) violate any provision of the articles of incorporation or by-laws of the Company, (ii) to the best of our knowledge, violate any statute, rule, regulation, order or decree of any public body or authority by which the Company or any Shareholder or any of their respective properties or assets are bound, or (iii) to the best of our knowledge, result in a violation or breach of, or constitute a default under, any license, franchise, permit, indenture, agreement or other instrument to which the Company or any Shareholder is a party, or by which the Company or any Shareholder or any of their respective assets or properties are bound. 6. To the best of our knowledge, all consents, authorizations and approvals required with respect to the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Purchase Agreement have been lawfully and validly obtained. 7. The Company's authorized capital stock consists of 5,000 shares of common stock, par value $1.00 per share. To the best of our knowledge, (i) 1,500 of such shares are issued and outstanding, (ii) the Shares have been validly issued and are fully paid and non-assessable, and (iii) there are outstanding no securities convertible into or exchangeable for capital stock of the Company and no subscriptions, rights, warrants, calls, commitments, options, or agreements to which the Company or any Shareholder is a party or by which any of them is bound that relate to the issuance or sale by any of them of any shares of the capital stock of the Company. 8. To the best of our knowledge, (i) each Shareholder owns good and valid title to 500 shares of the common stock of the Company, free and clear of any liens, pledges, encumbrances, charges, agreements or claims, and (ii) the certificates evidencing each respective Virbac Corporation August 15, 2003 Page 3 Shareholder's ownership of his portion of the Shares are in proper form for the enforcement of rights and limitation of rights pertaining to such Shares that are set forth in the articles of incorporation and bylaws of the Company. Any restrictions on transfer of the Shares contained in the articles of incorporation or bylaws of the Company have been either waived or complied with. 9. Upon payment for, and delivery of, the Shares in accordance with the terms of the Agreement, Virbac will be the owner of the Shares. To the best of our knowledge, such ownership shall be free and clear of any adverse claim. 10. Except as otherwise disclosed in the Purchase Agreement, there are no actions, suits, claims, investigations or proceedings, whether pending or, to the best of our knowledge, threatened, whether at law or in equity, or whether administrative or in mediation or arbitration, before any court or government agency that, if decided adversely to the Company or any Shareholder, would have a Material Adverse Effect on the financial condition, properties, existence, or business of the Company. We are licensed to practice law in the Commonwealth of Virginia and in connection therewith, with your permission, are expressing our opinion only with respect to the laws of the Commonwealth of Virginia. We have assumed, with your permission, however, that insofar as the substantive laws of any other state may be applicable to any matters opined on herein, such laws are the same as the substantive laws of the Commonwealth of Virginia opined on herein.
