Item
5. |
Interests
of Named Experts and Counsel. |
Graubard
Miller issued the opinion as to the legality of the shares of our common stock being registered pursuant to this registration statement.
Graubard Miller and its partners own warrants to purchase shares of our common stock, which represent, in the aggregate, beneficial ownership
of less than 1% of our common stock.
See
the Exhibit Index, which is incorporated herein by reference.
(a) |
The
undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes: |
|
(1) |
To
file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this registration statement: |
|
(i) |
To
include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act of 1933; |
|
(ii) |
To
reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of the registration statement (or the most recent
post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set
forth in the registration statement; |
|
|
|
|
(iii) |
To
include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the registration statement
or any material change to such information in the registration statement. |
Provided,
however, that paragraphs (a)(1)(i) and (a)(1)(ii) do not apply if the information required to be included in a post-effective
amendment by those paragraphs is contained in periodic reports filed with or furnished to the Commission by the Registrant pursuant to
Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 that are incorporated by reference in this registration statement.
|
(2) |
That,
for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed
to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall
be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof. |
|
|
|
|
(3) |
To
remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the
termination of the offering. |
(b)
The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each filing
of the Registrant’s annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (and where
applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plan’s annual report pursuant to Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of
1934) that is incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to
the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering
thereof.
(h)
Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling
persons of the Registrant pursuant to the foregoing procedures, or otherwise, the Registrant has been advised that in the opinion of
the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Act and is, therefore, unenforceable.
In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the Registrant of expenses incurred
or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the Registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is
asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the Registrant will, unless
in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the
question whether such indemnification by it against public policy as expressed in the Act and will be governed by the final adjudication
of such issue.
SIGNATURES
Pursuant
to the requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, the registrant certifies that it has reasonable grounds to believe that
it meets all of the requirements for filing on Form S-8 and has duly caused this registration statement to be signed on its behalf by
the undersigned, thereunto duly authorized, in New York, New York on this 6th day of February, 2024.

Ladies
and Gentlemen:
Reference
is made to the Registration Statement on Form S-8 (the “Registration Statement”) filed by PAVmed Inc., a Delaware corporation
(“Company”), under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), with respect
to an aggregate of 166,667 shares of Common Stock (the “Shares”) newly reserved for issuance by the Company under
the Company’s Employee Stock Purchase Plan, as amended and restated effective as of June 15, 2021 (the “ESPP”),
pursuant to Section 3 of the ESPP and the duly approved resolutions of the Company’s Board of Directors.
We
have examined such documents and considered such legal matters as we have deemed necessary and relevant as the basis for the opinion
set forth below. With respect to such examination, we have assumed the genuineness of all signatures, the authenticity of all documents
submitted to us as originals, the conformity to original documents of all documents submitted to us as reproduced or certified copies,
and the authenticity of the originals of those latter documents. As to questions of fact material to this opinion, we have, to the extent
deemed appropriate, relied upon certain representations of certain officers and employees of the Company.
In
our examination of documents for purposes of this opinion, we have assumed, and express no opinion as to, the authenticity and completeness
of all documents submitted to us as originals, the genuineness of signatures on documents reviewed by us, the conformity to originals
and the completeness of all documents submitted to us as copies, the legal capacity of all parties executing any documents (other than
the Company), the lack of any undisclosed termination or modification or waiver of any document, the absence of any extrinsic agreements
or documents that might change or affect the interpretation or terms of documents, and the due authorization, execution and delivery
of all documents by each party thereto other than the Company. We have also assumed that any certificates or instruments representing
the Shares, when issued, will be executed by the Company by officers of the Company duly authorized to do so. In rendering our opinion,
we have also relied upon a good standing certificate regarding the Company issued by the Delaware Secretary of State and representations
and certifications made to us by the Company, including, without limitation, representations that the Company has available a sufficient
number of authorized shares of Common Stock that are not currently outstanding or reserved for issuance under other outstanding securities
or plans of the Company, to enable the Company to issue and deliver all of the Shares as of the date of this letter.

Based
upon and subject to the foregoing, it is our opinion that the Shares that may be issued and sold by the Company pursuant to the purchase
rights granted or to be granted under the ESPP, when sold in accordance with the terms of the ESPP and the individual instruments or
agreements governing their issuance, will be legally issued, fully paid and nonassessable.
The
opinion expressed herein is limited to the corporate laws of the State of Delaware, and we express no opinion as to the effect on matters
covered by this letter of the laws of any other jurisdiction.
We
hereby consent to the use of this opinion as an exhibit to the Registration Statement, to the use of our name as your counsel and to
all references made to us in the Registration Statement. In giving this consent, we do not hereby admit that we are in the category of
persons whose consent is required under Section 7 of the Act, or the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder.

truly yours, |
