Based upon the foregoing, and subject to the additional assumptions and qualifications set forth below, we advise you that, in our opinion, as of the date hereof, the Securities have been duly authorized and, when and to the extent issued, delivered and paid for in accordance with the Plans, the Securities will be validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable.

We are members of the Bars of the States of New York and California and the foregoing opinion is limited to the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware.

(1) Pursuant to Rule 416(a) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), this registration statement shall also cover any additional shares of the Registrant's common stock that become issuable under the 2020 Incentive Award Plan (the "2020 Plan") and the 2020 Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the "ESPP") by reason of any stock dividend, stock split, recapitalization or similar transaction effected without the Registrant's receipt of consideration which would increase the number of outstanding shares of common stock.

(2) Represents the additional shares of common stock available for future issuance under the Registrant's 2020 Plan resulting from an annual increase as of January 1, 2025.

(3) This estimate is made pursuant to Rule 457(c) and Rule 457(h) of the Securities Act solely for purposes of calculating the registration fee. The Proposed Maximum Offering Price Per Share for shares available for future grant under the 2020 Plan is the average of the high and low prices for the registrant's common stock as reported on the Nasdaq Global Select Market on August 1, 2025, which was $8.59.

(4) Represents the additional shares of common stock available for future issuance under the Registrant's ESPP resulting from an annual increase as of January 1, 2025.

(5) This estimate is made pursuant to Rule 457(c) and Rule 457(h) of the Securities Act solely for purposes of calculating the registration fee. The Proposed Maximum Offering Price Per Share for shares available for future grant under the ESPP is $7.30, which represents the average of the high and low prices for the registrant's common stock as reported on the Nasdaq Global Select Market on August 1, 2025, multiplied by 85%, which is the percentage of the price per share applicable to purchase under the ESPP.

(6) The Registrant does not have any fee offsets.
