Item 4. Description of Securities.
Not applicable.
Item 5. Interests of Named Experts and Counsel.
Not applicable.
Item 6. Indemnification of Directors and Officers.
We are a Delaware corporation and certain provisions of Delaware law and our bylaws provide for indemnification of our officers and directors against liabilities that they may incur in such capacities. A summary of the circumstances in which indemnification is provided is discussed below, but this description is qualified in its entirety by reference to our bylaws and to the statutory provisions.
Section 145 of the Delaware General Corporation Law (“DGCL”) provides for, under certain circumstances, the indemnification of our officers, directors, employees and agents against liabilities that they may incur in such capacities. A summary of the circumstances in which such indemnification provided for is contained herein, but that description is qualified in its entirety by reference to the relevant Section of the DGCL.
In general, the statute provides that any director, officer, employee or agent of a corporation may be indemnified against expenses (including attorneys’ fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement, actually and reasonably incurred in a proceeding (including any civil, criminal, administrative or investigative proceeding) to which the individual was a party by reason of such status. Such indemnity may be provided if the indemnified person’s actions resulting in the liabilities: (i) were taken in good faith; (ii) were reasonably believed to have been in or not opposed to our best interest; and (iii) with respect to any criminal action, such person had no reasonable cause to believe the actions were unlawful. Unless ordered by a court, indemnification generally may be awarded only after a determination of independent members of the Board of Directors or a committee thereof, by independent legal counsel or by vote of the stockholders that the applicable standard of conduct was met by the individual to be indemnified. The statutory provisions further provide that to the extent a director, officer, employee or agent is wholly successful on the merits or otherwise in defense of any proceeding to which he was a party, he is entitled to receive indemnification against
expenses, including attorneys’ fees, actually and reasonably incurred in connection with the proceeding.
Indemnification in connection with a proceeding by or in the right of the Company in which the director, officer, employee or agent is successful is permitted only with respect to expenses, including attorneys’ fees actually and reasonably incurred in connection with the defense. In such actions, the person to be indemnified must have acted in good faith, in a manner believed to have been in our best interest and must not have been adjudged liable to us unless and only to the extent that the Court of Chancery or the court in which such action or suit was brought shall determine upon application that, despite the adjudication of liability, in view of all the circumstances of the case, such person is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity for such expense which the Court of Chancery or such other court shall deem proper. Indemnification is otherwise prohibited in connection with a proceeding brought on behalf of the Company in which a director is adjudged liable to us, or in connection with any proceeding charging improper personal benefit to the director in which the director is adjudged liable for receipt of an improper personal benefit.
Delaware law authorizes us to reimburse or pay reasonable expenses incurred by a director, officer, employee or agent in connection with a proceeding in advance of a final disposition of the matter. Such advances of expenses are permitted if the person furnishes to us a written agreement to repay such advances if it is determined that he is not entitled to be indemnified by us.
The statutory section cited above further specifies that any provisions for indemnification of or advances for expenses does not exclude other rights under our certificate of incorporation, corporate bylaws, resolutions of our stockholders or disinterested directors, or otherwise. These indemnification provisions continue for a person who has ceased to be a director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation and inure to the benefit of the heirs, executors and administrators of such persons.
The statutory provision cited above also grants the power to the Company to purchase and maintain insurance policies that protect any director, officer, employee or agent against any liability asserted against or incurred by him in such capacity arising out of his status as such. Such policies may provide for indemnification whether or not the corporation would otherwise have the power to provide for it.
Articles V and VI of our certificate of incorporation provide that we shall indemnify our directors and officers to the fullest extent permitted by the DGCL.
We have purchased directors’ and officers’ liability insurance in order to limit the exposure to liability for indemnification of directors and officers, including liabilities under the Securities Act of 1933.
Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted for our directors, officers, employees, or agents pursuant to the foregoing provisions or otherwise, we have been advised that in the opinion of the SEC, such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and, therefore, may be unenforceable.

Re: Registration Statement on Form S-8
Ladies and Gentlemen:
We have acted as special counsel to AVITA Medical, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), in connection with the Registration Statement on Form S-8 (the “Registration Statement”) to be filed by the Company on the date hereof with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, for the registration of 428,858 shares (the “Shares”) of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Common Stock”), which are issuable upon the exercise of stock options and the vesting of restricted stock units granted pursuant to individual stock option award and restricted stock unit award agreements substantially in the form referenced in Exhibits 4.3 and 4.4 of the Registration Statement (collectively, the “Award Agreements”).
This opinion is being furnished in accordance with the requirements of Item 601(b)(5) of Regulation S-K under the Securities Act.
For the purposes of rendering the opinion stated herein, we have examined (a) the Registration Statement; (b) the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation; (c) the Company’s Amended and Restated Bylaws (as amended December 22, 2021) (the “Bylaws”); (d) resolutions adopted by, and/or minutes of meetings of, the board of directors of the Company (the “Board”) on January 3, 2024 and February 21, 2024, authorizing and approving the issuance of the Shares and other related matters (collectively, the “Authorizations”); (e) a good standing certificate with respect to the Company as issued by the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware; (f) the Award Agreements; and (g) a certificate of an officer of the Company, dated the date hereof (the “Fact Certificate”).
We have also examined such questions of law, and the originals or copies, certified or otherwise identified to our satisfaction, of such instruments, documents and records as we have deemed necessary or appropriate as a basis for the opinion stated herein. In our examination, we have assumed the genuineness of all signatures, the legal capacity and competency of all natural persons, the accuracy and completeness of all documents submitted to us, the authenticity of all documents submitted to us as originals, and the conformity to the originals of all documents submitted to us as copies. As to matters of fact relevant to our opinion set forth below, we have relied, without independent investigation, on certificates of public officials and the Fact Certificate.
In rendering our opinion below, we also have assumed that (i) the Company will have sufficient authorized and unissued shares of Common Stock at the time of each issuance of any Shares, (ii) either (A) the Shares will be evidenced by appropriate certificates, duly executed and delivered, or (B) the Board will adopt a resolution providing that all shares of Common Stock shall be uncertificated in accordance with Section 158 of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware (the “DGCL”) prior to the issuance of the Shares and, within a reasonable time after the issuance of such uncertified Shares, the registered owner thereof shall be given notice in writing or by electronic transmission in compliance with Section 151(f) of the DGCL; (iii) the issuance of each Share will be properly recorded in the books and records of the Company, (iv) each Award Agreement has been duly executed and delivered and constitutes the valid and binding agreement of the Company, enforceable against the Company in accordance with its terms; (v) the Company will receive consideration for each Share at least equal to the par value of such share of Common Stock and in the amount required by the Authorizations; (vi) the Listing Rules of ASX Limited (“ASX”) and any other rules of ASX which are applicable while the Company is admitted to the official list of ASX, each as amended or replaced from time to time, except to the extent of any express waiver by ASX (the “Listing Rules”), do not prohibit any act relevant to our opinion below; (vii) no provision of the Listing Rules requires the Bylaws to contain any provision that is not contained in the Bylaws; and (viii) no provision of the Bylaws is inconsistent with the Listing Rules.
Our opinion set forth below is limited to the DGCL and reported decisions interpreting the DGCL and we have not considered and express no opinion on the effect of any other laws of the State of Delaware or the laws of any other state or jurisdiction, including state and federal laws relating to securities or the laws, rules and regulations of any stock exchange or any other regulatory body.
Based upon and subject to the foregoing, it is our opinion that the Shares, when issued and paid for in accordance with the terms of the Authorizations will be validly issued, fully paid, and non-assessable.
We hereby consent to the filing of this opinion letter with the SEC as Exhibit 5.1 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.
Yours truly,
/s/ K&L Gates LLP
