Re:

GigCapital8 Corp.

Registration Statement on Form S-1 (File. No. 333-289479)

Ladies and Gentlemen:

We have acted as special United States counsel to Gigcapital8 Corp., a Cayman Islands exempted company (the “Company”), in connection with the initial public offering by the Company of (a) up to 25,300,000 units of the Company (the “Units”) (including up to 3,300,000 Units subject to an over-allotment option), each Unit consisting of one Class A ordinary share of the Company, par value $0.0001 per share (each, a “Class A Ordinary Share”), and one right to receive one-fifth of a Class A Ordinary Share (each whole right, a “Right”), each five Rights entitling the holder to thereof receive one Class A Ordinary Share, and (b) all Class A Ordinary Shares and all Rights to be issued as part of the Units. The Units and the Class A Ordinary Shares and Rights, in each case, included as part of the Units are collectively referred to herein as the “Securities.”

This opinion is being furnished in accordance with the requirements of Item 601(b)(5) of Regulation S-K under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”).

In rendering the opinions stated herein, we have examined and relied upon the following:

 

  (a)

the registration statement on Form S-1 (File No. 333-289479) of the Company relating to the Securities, initially filed on August 11, 2025 with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) under the Securities Act (such registration statement, as so amended, being hereinafter referred to as the “Registration Statement”);

 

  (b)

the form of Underwriting Agreement (the “Underwriting Agreement”) proposed to be entered into by and between the D. Boral Capital LLC, as the representative of the underwriters (the “Underwriters”), relating to the sale by the Company to the underwriters of the Units, filed as Exhibit 1.1 to the Registration Statement;

 

  (c)

the Specimen Unit Certificate, filed as Exhibit 4.1 to the Registration Statement (the “Unit Certificate”);

 

  (d)

the Specimen Right Certificate, filed as Exhibit 4.3 to the Registration Statement (the “Right Certificate”); and

 

  (e)

the form of Rights Agreement proposed to be entered into by and between the Company and Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, a New York corporation (“CST”), as rights agent (the “Rights Agreement”), filed as Exhibit 4.4 to the Registration Statement.

We have also examined originals or copies, certified or otherwise identified to our satisfaction, of such records of the Company and such agreements, certificates and receipts of public officials, certificates of officers or other representatives of the Company and others, and such other documents as we have deemed necessary or appropriate as a basis for the opinions stated below.


GigCapital8 Corp.

In our examination, we have assumed the genuineness of all signatures on all documents, including electronic signatures, the legal capacity and competency of all natural persons executing any documents, the authenticity and completeness of all documents submitted to us as originals, the completeness and conformity to original documents of all documents submitted to us as facsimile, electronic, certified or photocopied copies or which we obtained from the Commission’s Electronic Data Gathering, Analysis and Retrieval system (“EDGAR”) or other sites on the internet, and the authenticity of the originals thereof. As to any facts and the consequences thereof relevant to the opinions stated herein that we did not independently establish or verify, we have, to the extent deemed appropriate, relied without independent investigation or verification upon, and assumed the accuracy and completeness of, statements and representations of officers and other representatives of the Company and others and of public officials.

We do not express any opinion with respect to the laws of any jurisdiction other than the laws of the State of New York, except we express no opinion and make no statement as to the municipal laws or the laws, rules or regulations of any local agencies or governmental authorities of or within the State of New York or, in each case, as to any matters arising thereunder or relating thereto (the “Opined-on Law”).

As used herein, “Transaction Documents” means the Underwriting Agreement, the Unit Certificate and the Rights Agreement.

Based upon the foregoing and subject to the qualifications and assumptions stated herein, we are of the opinion that:

 

  (1)

When the Units are delivered by the Company in accordance with the Underwriting Agreement upon payment of the agreed upon consideration therefor, the Units will constitute valid and binding obligations of the Company, enforceable against the Company in accordance with their terms under the laws of the State of New York.

 

  (2)

When the Units are delivered by the Company in accordance with the Underwriting Agreement upon payment of the agreed upon consideration therefor, the Rights included in such Units will constitute valid and binding obligations of the Company, enforceable against the Company in accordance with their terms under the laws of the State of New York.

The opinions stated herein are subject to the following qualifications:

(a) we do not express any opinion with respect to the effect on the opinions stated herein of any bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, fraudulent transfer, preference and other similar laws affecting creditors’ rights generally, and the opinions stated herein are limited by such laws and by general principles of equity (regardless of whether enforcement is sought in equity or at law);

(b) we do not express any opinion with respect to any law, rule or regulation that is applicable to any party to any of the Transaction Documents or the transactions contemplated thereby solely because such law, rule or regulation is part of a regulatory regime applicable to any such party or any of its affiliates as a result of the specific assets or business operations of such party or such affiliates;

(c) we do not express any opinion with respect to the enforceability of any provision contained in any Transaction Document relating to any indemnification, contribution, non-reliance, exculpation, release, limitation or exclusion of remedies, waiver or other provisions having similar effect that may be contrary to public policy or violative of federal or state securities laws, rules or regulations, or to the extent any such provision purports to, or has the effect of, waiving or altering any statute of limitations;

(d) we call to your attention that irrespective of the agreement of the parties to any Transaction Document, a court may decline to hear a case on grounds of forum non conveniens or other doctrine limiting the availability of such court as a forum for resolution of disputes; in addition, we call to your attention that we do not express any opinion with respect to the subject matter jurisdiction of the federal courts of the United States of America in any action arising out of or relating to any Transaction Document;

(e) we have assumed that CST has the power, corporate or other, to enter into and perform all obligations under the Rights Agreement and have also assumed the due authorization by all requisite action, corporate or other, and the execution and delivery by CST of the Rights Agreement and that the Rights Agreement constitutes the valid and binding obligation of CST, enforceable against CST in accordance with its terms; and

(f) to the extent that any opinion relates to the enforceability of the choice of New York law and choice of New York forum provisions contained in any of the Units or the Rights Agreement, the opinions stated herein are subject to the qualification that such enforceability may be subject to, in each case, (i) the exceptions and limitations in New York General Obligations Law sections 5-1401 and 5-1402 and (ii) principles of comity and constitutionality.

In addition, in rendering the foregoing opinions we have assumed that:

(a) the Company (i) is duly incorporated and is validly existing and in good standing, (ii) has requisite legal status and legal capacity under the laws of the jurisdiction of its organization and (iii) has complied and will comply with all aspects of the laws of the jurisdiction of its organization in connection with the transactions contemplated by, and the performance of its obligations under, the Transaction Documents;

(b) the Company has the corporate power and authority to execute, deliver and perform all its obligations under the Transaction Documents;

(c) each of the Transaction Documents has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by all requisite corporate action on part of the Company;

(d) neither the execution and delivery by the Company of the Transaction Documents nor the performance by the Company of its obligations thereunder, including the issuance and sale of the Securities, (i) conflicts or will conflict with the amended and restated memorandum and articles of association of the Company, (ii) constitutes or will constitute a violation of, or a default under, any lease, indenture, instrument or other agreement to which the Company or its property is subject, (iii) contravenes or will contravene any order or decree of any governmental authority to which the Company or its property is subject, or (iv) violates or will violate any law, rule or regulation to which the Company or its property is subject (except that we do not make the assumption set forth in this clause (iv) with respect to the Opined-on Law); and

(e) neither the execution and delivery by the Company of the Transaction Documents nor the performance by the Company of its obligations thereunder, including the issuance and sale of the Securities, requires or will require the consent, approval, licensing or authorization of, or any filing, recording or registration with, any governmental authority under any law, rule or regulation of any jurisdiction.

We hereby consent to the reference to our firm under the heading “Legal Matters” in the prospectus forming part of the Registration Statement. We also hereby consent to the filing of this opinion with the Commission as an exhibit to the Registration Statement. In giving this consent, we do not thereby admit that we are within the category of persons whose consent is required under Section 7 of the Securities Act or the General Rules and Regulations under the Securities Act.

Very truly yours,

Dear GigCapital8 Corp.

GigCapital8 Corp. (Company)

We are lawyers qualified to practise in the Cayman Islands and have acted as Cayman Islands legal advisers to the Company in connection with the Company’s registration statement on Form S-1 to be filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (Commission) on or about the date of this opinion (Registration Statement), relating to the registration of:

 

A.

22,000,000 units consisting of:

 

  a.

one Class A Share (as defined below); and

 

  b.

one right to receive one-fifth (1/5) of a Class A Share (Right),

 

upon the consummation of an initial business combination (Units);

 

B.

up to 3,300,000 Units, which may be issued upon exercise of an option granted to the underwriter(s) to cover over-allotments, if any, exercisable for a period of forty-five (45) days after the closing of the offering (Over-Allotment Units);

 

C.

all Class A Shares and all Rights issued as part of the Units and the Over-Allotment Units; and

 

D.

all Class A Shares that may be issued upon the consummation of an initial business combination in respect of the Rights included in the Units and the Over-Allotment Units,

in each case under the United States Securities Act of 1933, as amended (Securities Act) and pursuant to the terms of the Registration Statement. In this opinion Companies Act means the Companies Act, as amended, of the Cayman Islands.

Each five (5) Rights entitle the holder thereof to receive one (1) Class A Share upon the consummation of a business combination. There will be no fractional shares issued upon the conversion of the Rights.

The Class A Shares underlying the Units and the Over-Allotment Units are referred to herein as the Unit Shares and the Class A Shares to be issued in accordance with the Rights are referred to herein as the Rights Shares.


We are furnishing this opinion as Exhibit 5.2 to the Registration Statement.

For the purposes of giving this opinion, we have examined the Documents (as defined in Schedule 1) which are all the documents which we consider necessary and appropriate for the matters set out in this legal opinion. We have not examined any other documents, official or corporate records or external or internal registers and have not undertaken or been instructed to undertake any further enquiry or due diligence in relation to the transaction which is the subject of this opinion.

In giving this opinion, we have relied upon the assumptions set out in Schedule 2 which we have not independently verified.

Based solely upon the foregoing examinations and assumptions and upon such searches as we have conducted and having regard to legal considerations which we deem relevant, and subject to the qualifications set out in Schedule 3, we are of the opinion that under the laws of the Cayman Islands:

 

1

Existence and Good Standing. The Company has been duly incorporated as an exempted company with limited liability and is validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the Cayman Islands.

 

2

Capacity and Power. The delivery of the Registration Statement by the Company and the performance of its obligations thereunder are within the corporate capacity and power of the Company and have been duly authorised and approved by all necessary corporate action of the Company.

 

3

Authorised Share Capital. Based on our review of the Mem & Arts, the authorised share capital of the Company is US$ 22,100 divided into:

 

  (a)

200,000,000 Class A ordinary shares of a par value of US$ 0.0001 each (Class A Shares);

 

  (b)

20,000,000 Class B ordinary shares of a par value of US$ 0.0001 each (Class B Shares); and

 

  (c)

1,000,000 Preference shares of a par value of US$ 0.0001 each (Preference Shares).

 

4

  (a)

0 Class A Shares;

 

  (b)

7,850,229 Class B Shares; and

 

  (c)

0 Preference Shares,

 

issued and outstanding.

 

5

Unit Shares. The Unit Shares to be issued by the Company as contemplated by the Registration Statement have been duly authorised and, when allotted, issued and fully paid for in accordance with the Resolutions (as defined in Schedule 1), and when the name of the shareholder is entered in the register of members of the Company (Register of Members), the Unit Shares will be validly issued, allotted, fully paid, and non-assessable and there will be no further obligation on the holder of any of the Unit Shares to make any further payment to the Company in respect of such Unit Shares.

 

6

Rights Shares. The Rights Shares to be issued by the Company as contemplated by the Registration Statement have been duly authorised and, when allotted, issued and fully paid for in accordance with the Resolutions, the terms of the Rights, and when the name of the shareholder is entered in

  the Register of Members, the Rights Shares will be validly issued, allotted, fully paid, and non-assessable and there will be no further obligation on the holder of any of the Rights Shares to make any further payment to the Company in respect of such Rights Shares.

 

7

Cayman Islands Law. The statements under the caption “Taxation” in the prospectus forming part of the Registration Statement, to the extent that they constitute statements of Cayman Islands law, are accurate in all material respects as at the date of this opinion and such statements constitute our opinion.

This opinion is confined to the matters expressly opined on herein and given on the basis of the laws of the Cayman Islands as they are in force and applied by the Cayman Islands courts at the date of this opinion. We have made no investigation of, and express no opinion on, the laws of any other jurisdiction. Except as specifically stated herein, we express no opinion as to matters of fact.

In connection with the above opinion, we hereby consent to the filing of this opinion as an exhibit to the Registration Statement and to the reference to our name under the heading “Legal Matters” and elsewhere in the prospectus included in the Registration Statement. In giving such consent, we do not thereby admit that we come within the category of persons whose consent is required under Section 7 of the Securities Act, as amended, or the Rules and Regulations of the Commission thereunder.

This opinion is limited to the matters referred to herein and shall not be construed as extending to any other matter or document not referred to herein.

This opinion shall be construed in accordance with the laws of the Cayman Islands.

 

Yours faithfully
