The securities registered hereunder are to be issued from time to time and at prices to be determined.

Calculated pursuant to Rule 457(o) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. Pursuant to the notes for the calculation of this registration fee of Form S-3 and Rule 415(a)(6), the filing fee respecting the $179,384,712 in unsold securities included in the $200,000,000 in securities registered on Form S-3, SEC file no. 333-182288, was previously paid, so the $179,384,712 in the unsold securities has been deducted from the amount registered in this registration statement for the purposes of calculating the registration fee.

THE REGISTRANT HEREBY AMENDS THIS REGISTRATION STATEMENT ON SUCH DATE OR DATES AS MAY BE NECESSARY TO DELAY ITS EFFECTIVE DATE UNTIL THE REGISTRANT SHALL FILE A FURTHER AMENDMENT THAT SPECIFICALLY STATES THAT THIS REGISTRATION STATEMENT SHALL THEREAFTER BECOME EFFECTIVE IN ACCORDANCE WITH SECTION 8(A) OF THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, OR UNTIL THE REGISTRATION STATEMENT SHALL BECOME EFFECTIVE ON SUCH DATE AS THE U.S. SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION, ACTING PURSUANT TO SAID SECTION 8(A), MAY DETERMINE.

Ladies and Gentlemen:

We have acted as counsel for FX Energy, Inc., a Nevada corporation (the “Company”), in connection with the registration under the Securities Act of 1933 (the “Securities Act”), on a Registration Statement on Form S-3 (the “Registration Statement”) of the offer and sale, from time to time, pursuant to Rule 415 under the Securities Act of the following securities for an aggregate initial offering price not to exceed $200,000,000:  (i) shares of common stock, par value $0.001, of the Company (“Common Stock”); (ii) shares of preferred stock, par value $0.001, of the Company (“Preferred Stock”); (iii) warrants to purchase Senior Debt Securities (as hereinafter defined), Subordinated Debt Securities (as hereinafter defined), Preferred Stock, or Common Stock (the “Warrants”); (iv) senior debt securities (“Senior Debt Securities”); and (v) subordinated debt securities (“Subordinated Debt Securities” and, together with the Common Stock, Preferred Stock, Warrants, and Senior Debt Securities, the “Securities”).

For purposes of rendering the opinions contained in this letter, we have reviewed those agreements, records, and documents as we have deemed relevant in order to render the opinions set forth herein, including the articles of incorporation and the bylaws of the Company in effect as of the date hereof and the Indenture in the form of Exhibits 4.07 and 4.08 to the Registration Statement to be executed by the Company and the trustee (the “Indenture”), pursuant to which debt securities may be issued.

As to certain questions of fact material to our opinions that we have not independently established, we have relied upon certificates from officers of the Company and upon certificates of public officials.

In rendering the following opinions, we have assumed: (a) all information contained in all documents reviewed by us is true and correct; (b) the genuineness of all signatures on all documents reviewed by us; (c) the authenticity and completeness of all documents submitted to us as originals; (d) the conformity to authentic originals of all documents submitted to us as certified or photostatic copies; (e) each natural person signing any document reviewed by us had the legal capacity to do so; and (f) each person signing in a representative capacity any document reviewed by us had authority to sign in such capacity.

____________________

The opinions expressed above are subject in all respects to the following assumptions, exceptions, and qualifications:

A.           We have assumed that: (i) the Registration Statement and any amendments thereto (including post-effective amendments) will have become effective and comply with all applicable laws; (ii) the Registration Statement will be effective and will comply with all applicable laws at the time the Securities are offered or issued as contemplated by the Registration Statement (if such offering or issuance requires the delivery of a prospectus under the Securities Act or pursuant to any other law); (iii) a Prospectus Supplement will have been prepared and filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission describing the Securities offered thereby and will comply with all applicable laws; (iv) all Securities will be issued and sold in compliance with applicable federal and state securities laws and in the manner stated in the Registration Statement and the appropriate Prospectus Supplement; (v) a definitive purchase, underwriting, or similar agreement with respect to any Securities offered or issued will have been duly authorized and validly executed and delivered by the Company and the other parties thereto; and (vi) any Securities issuable upon conversion, exchange, or exercise of any security being offered or issued will be duly authorized, created, and if appropriate, reserved for issuance upon such conversion, exchange, or exercise.

C.           The enforceability of the Indenture and provisions thereof may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, fraudulent transfer, moratorium, or other similar laws now or hereinafter in effect relating to or affecting enforcement of creditors’ rights generally and by general principles of equity (regardless of whether such enforcement is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law). Principles of equity include concepts of materiality, reasonableness, good faith, and fair dealing and also the possible unavailability of specific performance or injunctive relief.

D.           We express no opinion respecting: (i) the enforceability of provisions in the Indenture, any other agreement or instrument with respect to delay or omission of enforcement of rights or remedies, or waivers of notices or defenses, or waivers of benefits of, or other rights that cannot be effectively waived under, applicable laws; (ii) the enforceability of indemnification provisions to the extent they purport to relate to liabilities resulting from or based upon negligence or any violation of federal or state securities laws; or (iii) the enforceability of Sections 2.18, 11.07 and 14.11 of the Indenture.

E.           We note that the Indenture by its terms currently provides that it will be governed by the laws of the state of Utah. We acknowledge that the terms of any Indenture or Warrant, when ultimately determined, may be governed by the laws of a jurisdiction other than the state of Utah or other than the domestic and foreign corporation laws of the state of Nevada. We express no opinion with respect to the laws of such other jurisdictions in rendering these opinions. We understand that the Company will obtain and file all necessary legal opinions when the jurisdiction applicable to the warrant is determined.
