**EXPLANATORY NOTE** 

Roku, Inc. (the "Registrant") is filing this Registration Statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "Commission") pursuant to General Instruction E of Form S-8. The Registrant's 2017 Equity Incentive Plan (the "2017 Plan") provides that the total number of shares reserved for issuance under the 2017 Plan will automatically increase on January 1st of each calendar year, from January 1, 2018 to January 1, 2027, in an amount equal to 5% of the total number of shares of the Registrant's capital stock outstanding on the last day of the preceding year, or a lesser number of shares determined by the Registrant's Board of Directors. Accordingly, on January 1, 2023, the number of shares of Class A common stock that may be issued upon the exercise of incentive stock options under the 2017 Plan increased by an additional 7,001,354 shares (or 5% of the outstanding shares of the Registrant's capital stock as of December 31, 2022). In addition, the number of shares reserved for issuance under the 2017 Plan will be increased by the total number of shares subject to options or other equity awards that expired or terminated under the Registrant's Amended and Restated 2008 Equity Incentive Plan. As a result, the shares reserved under the 2017 Plan increased by an additional 2,398 shares.

These additional shares of Class A common stock are securities of the same class as other securities for which the Registration Statements on Form S-8 (File No. 333-220701, File No. 333-223379, File No. 333-230039, File No. 333-236830, File No. 333-253638, and File No. 333-262876 ("Prior Registration Statements")) were filed with the Commission on September 28, 2017, March 1, 2018, March 1, 2019, March 2, 2020, February 26, 2021, and February 18, 2022, respectively.

Roku, Inc.

1155 Coleman Ave.

San Jose, CA 95110

Ladies and Gentlemen:

We have acted as counsel to Roku, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the "***Company***"), in connection with the filing of a registration statement on Form S-8 (the "***Registration Statement***") with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "***Commission***") covering the offering of up to 7,003,752 shares (the "***Shares***") of Class A common stock, par value $0.0001 per share, issuable pursuant to the Company's 2017 Equity Incentive Plan (the "***Plan***").

In connection with this opinion, we have examined and relied upon the Registration Statement and related prospectus, the Company's certificate of incorporation and bylaws, each as currently in effect, the Plan and originals or copies certified to our satisfaction of such other records, documents, certificates, memoranda and other instruments as in our judgment are necessary or appropriate to enable us to render the opinion expressed below. We have assumed the genuineness of all signatures, the authenticity of all documents submitted to us as originals, the conformity to originals of all documents submitted to us as copies, the accuracy, completeness and authenticity of certificates of public officials, and the due authorization, execution and delivery of all documents by all persons other than by the Company where authorization, execution and delivery are prerequisites to the effectiveness thereof. As to certain factual matters, we have relied upon a certificate of an officer of the Company and have not independently verified such matters.

Our opinion is expressed only with respect to the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware. We express no opinion to the extent that any other laws are applicable to the subject matter hereof and express no opinion and provide no assurance as to compliance with any federal or state securities law, rule or regulation.

On the basis of the foregoing, and in reliance thereon, we are of the opinion that the Shares, when sold and issued in accordance with the Plan, the Registration Statement and related prospectus, will be validly issued, fully paid, and nonassessable (except as to shares issued pursuant to certain deferred payment arrangements, which will be fully paid and nonassessable when such deferred payments are made in full).

We consent to the filing of this opinion 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 of 1933, as amended, or the rules and regulations of the Commission thereunder.

Sincerely,

Cooley LLP
