Ladies and Gentlemen:

This opinion letter is furnished to you in connection with the registration statement on Form S-8 (the “Registration Statement”), filed by iTeos Therapeutics, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), on the date hereof, with the Securities and Exchange Commission under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), for the registration of 1,773,300 shares of Common Stock, $0.001 par value, of the Company (the “Shares”). The Shares are issuable under the Company’s 2020 Stock Option and Incentive Plan (the “Plan”).

We are familiar with the actions taken by the Company in connection with the adoption of the Plan. We have examined such certificates, documents and records and have made such investigation of fact and such examination of law as we have deemed appropriate in order to enable us to render the opinions set forth herein. In conducting such investigation, we have relied, without independent verification, upon certificates of officers of the Company, public officials and other appropriate persons.

The opinions expressed below are limited to the Delaware General Corporation Law.

Based upon and subject to the foregoing, we are of the opinion that the Shares have been duly authorized and, when the Shares have been issued and sold in accordance with the terms of the Plan, the Shares will be validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable.

We hereby consent to the filing of this opinion letter as an exhibit to the Registration Statement. In giving such consent, we do not thereby admit that we are in the category of persons whose consent is required under Section 7 of the Securities Act or the rules and regulations thereunder.

 

Very truly yours,

(1)

Pursuant to Rule 416(a) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), this registration statement on Form S-8 (“Registration Statement”) shall also cover any additional shares of the common stock of iTeos Therapeutics, Inc. (the “Registrant”) that become issuable in respect of the securities identified in the above table 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 the outstanding shares of the Registrant’s common stock.

(2)

Represents additional shares of the Registrant’s common stock automatically reserved and available for issuance under the Registrant’s 2020 Stock Option and Incentive Plan (the “2020 Plan”) resulting from the annual “evergreen” increase in the number of authorized shares reserved and available for issuance under the 2020 Plan on January 1, 2022. The annual increase is equal to the lesser of (a) 5% of the number of shares of the Registrant’s common stock and common stock equivalents issued and outstanding on each December 31 immediately prior to the date of increase and (b) such number of shares determined by the Registrant’s board of directors.

(3)

Estimated in accordance with Rules 457(c) and (h) of the Securities Act, solely for the purpose of calculating the registration fee. The proposed maximum offering price per share of $36.18 was computed by averaging the high ($36.66) and low ($35.70) prices of a share of the Registrant’s common stock as reported on The Nasdaq Global Select Market on March 17, 2022.

(4)

The Registrant does not have any fee off-sets.
