Statement on Form S-3ASR
(Registration No. 333-281084)
Ladies
and Gentlemen:
We
have acted as special counsel to QXO, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), in connection with the Registration Statement
on Form S-3ASR (File No. 333-281084) (the “Registration Statement”), which became effective on July 29, 2024. You have asked
us to furnish our opinion as to the legality of (i) 95,876,547 shares (the “Common Shares”) of common stock of the Company,
par value $0.00001 per share (the “Common Stock”), consisting of (A) 13,066,710 shares (the “Issued Shares”)
of Common Stock outstanding, (B) 82,809,837 shares (the “Converted Shares”) of Common Stock issuable upon the conversion
of the Company’s Series C Convertible Perpetual Preferred Stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Preferred Stock”),
and(ii) 192,533 shares (the “Preferred Shares”) of Preferred Stock, all of which are registered under the Registration Statement
and which are being offered and sold by certain stockholders of the Company.
In
connection with the furnishing of this opinion, we have examined originals, or copies certified or otherwise identified to our satisfaction,
of the following documents:
1. the
Registration Statement;
2. the
base prospectus dated July 29, 2024 (the “Base Prospectus”);
3. the
prospectus supplement dated April 29, 2026 (the “Prospectus Supplement”); and
4. the
Certificate of Designations, Preferences and Rights of Series C Convertible Perpetual Preferred
Stock of the Company (the “Certificate of Designation”).
In
addition, we have examined (i) such corporate records of the Company that we have considered appropriate, including a copy of the certificate
of incorporation, as amended, and by-laws, as amended, of the Company certified by the Company as in effect on the date of this letter,
(ii) copies of resolutions of the board of directors of the Company relating to the issuance of the Shares, certified by the Company
and (iii) such other certificates, agreements and documents as we deemed relevant and necessary as a basis for the opinions expressed
below. We have also relied upon oral and written statements of officers and representatives of the Company as to factual matters and
upon certificates of public officials and the officers of the Company.
QXO, Inc. 2
In
our examination of the documents referred to above, we have assumed, without independent investigation, the genuineness of all signatures,
the legal capacity of all individuals who have executed any of the documents reviewed by us, the authenticity of all documents submitted
to us as originals, the conformity to the originals of all documents submitted to us as certified, photostatic, reproduced or conformed
copies of valid existing agreements or other documents, the authenticity of all such latter documents and that the statements regarding
matters of fact in the certificates, records, agreements, instruments and documents that we have examined are accurate and complete.
Based
upon the above, and subject to the stated assumptions, exceptions and qualifications, we are of the opinion that:
1. The
Issued Shares have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate action on the part of the Company and the Issued Shares are validly
issued, fully paid and non-assessable.
2. The
Converted Shares have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate action on the part of the Company and, when issued and delivered
as contemplated in the Certificate of Designation, the Converted Shares will be validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable.
3. The
Preferred Shares have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate action on the part of the Company and the Preferred Shares are
validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable.
The
opinions expressed above are limited to the Delaware General Corporation Law. Our opinions are rendered only with respect to the laws,
and the rules, regulations and orders under those laws, that are currently in effect.
We
hereby consent to use of this opinion as an exhibit to the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed by the Company with the
Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) on the date hereof, and to the use of our name under the heading
“Legal Matters” in the Base Prospectus included in the Registration Statement and in the Prospectus Supplement. In
giving this consent, we do not hereby admit that we come within the category of persons whose consent is required by the Securities
Act of 1933, as amended, or the rules and regulations of the Commission thereunder.
Very
truly yours,
/s/
