Pursuant to General Instruction E to Form S-8, American Well Corporation (the “Registrant”) is filing this Registration Statement on Form S-8 (this “Registration Statement”) with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) to register additional shares of Class A common stock, $0.01 par value per share, of the Registrant (“Class A Common Stock”) for issuance under the 2020 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2020 Plan”) and the 2020 Employee Stock Purchase Plan (“2020 ESPP”). The number of shares of Class A Common Stock available for issuance under the 2020 Plan is subject to an annual increase on the first day of each calendar year beginning on January 1, 2021 and ending on (and including) January 1, 2029 by an amount equal to the lesser of (i) five percent (5%) of the number of shares of all classes of the Registrant’s common stock outstanding on the last day of the immediately preceding fiscal year and (ii) such smaller number of shares of all classes of the Registrant’s common stock as determined by the Registrant’s Board of Directors (the “Board”) (the “2020 Plan Evergreen Provision”). The number of shares of Class A Common Stock available for issuance under the 2020 ESPP is subject to an annual increase on the first day of each calendar year beginning on January 1, 2021 and ending on (and including) January 1, 2029 by an amount equal to the least of (i) one percent (1%) of the number of shares of Class A Common Stock outstanding as of the date on which the registration statement covering the initial public offering of Class A Common Stock was declared effective by the Commission, (ii) one percent (1%) of number of shares of all classes of the Registrant’s common stock outstanding on the final day of the immediately preceding calendar year or (iii) such smaller number of shares of Class A Common Stock as determined by the Board (the “ESPP Evergreen Provision”). On January 1, 2024, the number of shares of Class A Common Stock available for issuance pursuant to the 2020 Plan Evergreen Provision and the ESPP Evergreen Provision increased by 14,424,425 and 1,981,644 shares, respectively (the “2024 Evergreen Shares”).

Ladies and Gentlemen:

 

We have acted as special counsel to American Well Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and are delivering this opinion in connection with the Company’s Registration Statement on Form S-8 (the “Registration Statement”) filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, for the registration of (i) 14,424,425 shares of the Company’s Class A Common Stock, par value $0.01 per share (the “Class A Shares”), issuable pursuant to the Company’s 2020 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2020 Plan”) and (ii) 1,981,644 Class A Shares issuable pursuant to the Company’s 2020 Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the “ESPP,” and together with the 2020 Plan, the “Plans”).

 

We, as your counsel, have examined originals or copies of such documents, corporate records, certificates of public officials and other instruments as we have deemed necessary or advisable for the purpose of rendering this opinion.

 

In rendering the opinion expressed herein, we have, without independent inquiry or investigation, assumed that (i) all documents submitted to us as originals are authentic and complete, (ii) all documents submitted to us as copies conform to authentic, complete originals, (iii) all signatures on all documents that we reviewed are genuine, (iv) all natural persons executing documents had and have the legal capacity to do so, (v) all statements in certificates of public officials and officers of the Company that we reviewed were and are accurate and (vi) all representations made by the Company as to matters of fact in the documents that we reviewed were and are accurate.

 

On the basis of the foregoing, we are of the opinion that the Shares have been duly authorized and, when and to the extent issued pursuant to the Plans upon receipt by the Company of the consideration for the Shares specified therein, will be validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable.

 

We are members of the Bars of the States of New York and the District of Columbia and the foregoing opinion is limited to the laws of the State of New York, the federal laws of the United States of America and the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware.

 

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

 

Very truly yours,
