(1)    Pursuant to Rule 416(a) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), this Registration Statement covers any additional shares of the Registrant’s common stock (“Common Stock”) that become issuable in respect of the securities identified in the table above by reason of any stock dividend, stock split, recapitalization or other similar transaction effected without the Registrant’s receipt of consideration that results in an increase in the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock.

(2)    Estimated in accordance with Rules 457(c) and (h) solely for the purpose of calculating the registration fee on the basis of 85% of $623.29 per share, which is the average of the high and low prices of Common Stock, as reported on The Nasdaq Global Market on July 28, 2021. Pursuant to the ESPP, the purchase price of the shares of Common Stock reserved for issuance thereunder will be at least 85% of the lesser of the fair market value of Common Stock on (a) the offering date or (b) the purchase date (as such terms are defined in the ESPP).

(3) The amount of the registration fee is calculated pursuant to Section 6(b) of the Securities Act, which currently provides that the filing fee rate shall be “$109.10 per $1 million” of the maximum aggregate price at which such securities are proposed to be offered. The Registration Fee is therefore calculated by multiplying the Proposed Maximum Aggregate Offering Price by 0.0001091.

Re: Registration Statement on Form S-8

Ladies and Gentlemen:

We have examined the Registration Statement on Form S-8 (the “Registration Statement”) to be filed by Align Technology, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“you”), with the Securities and Exchange Commission on or about the date hereof, in connection with the registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, of an aggregate of 2,000,000 shares of your Common Stock, $0.0001 par value (the “Shares”), reserved for issuance pursuant to the Amended and Restated 2010 Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the “ESPP”). As your legal counsel, we have reviewed the actions proposed to be taken by you in connection with the issuance and sale of the Shares under the ESPP.

It is our opinion that the Shares, when issued and sold in the manner described in the ESPP and pursuant to the agreements that accompany the ESPP, will be legally and validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable.

We consent to the use of this opinion as an exhibit to the Registration Statement and further consent to the use of our name wherever appearing in the Registration Statement and any amendments thereto.
 

 
Very truly yours,
