ITEM 6. INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS.
Section 145 of the Delaware General Corporation Law authorizes a court
to award, or a corporation's Board of Directors to grant, indemnity to directors
and officers in terms sufficiently broad to permit such indemnification under
certain circumstances for liabilities (including reimbursement for expenses
incurred) arising under the Securities Act. Article 9 of the Company's Restated
Certificate of Incorporation and Article 6.1 of the Bylaws of the Company
provide for indemnification of certain agents to the maximum extent permitted by
the Delaware General Corporation Law. Persons covered by these indemnification
provisions include current and former directors, officers, employees and other
agents of the Company, as well as persons who serve at the request of the
Company as directors, officers, employees or agents of another enterprise. In
addition, the Company has entered into agreements with its officers and
directors which require the Company to indemnify its officers and directors to
the maximum extent permitted under Delaware law.

ITEM 9. UNDERTAKINGS.
(a) The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes:
(1) To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being
made, a post-effective amendment to this Registration Statement to include any
material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously
disclosed in the Registration Statement or any material change to such
information in the Registration Statement.
(2) That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the
Securities Act, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new
Registration Statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the
offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona
fide offering thereof.
(3) To remove from registration by means of a post-effective
amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the
termination of the offering.
(b) The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of
determining any liability under the Securities Act, each filing of the
Registrant's annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or Section 15(d) of the
Exchange Act (and, where applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plan's
annual report pursuant to Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act) that is
incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement shall be deemed to be a
new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the
offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona
fide offering thereof.
(c) Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the
Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons
of the Registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the
Registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange
Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the
Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for
indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the
Registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling
person of the Registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or
proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in
connection with the securities being registered, the Registrant will, unless in
the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent,
submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such
indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities
Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.

RE: REGISTRATION STATEMENT ON FORM S-8
Ladies and Gentlemen:
We have examined the Registration Statement on Form S-8 to be filed
by you with the Securities and Exchange Commission on or about July 8, 1997
(the "Registration Statement"), in connection with the registration under the
Securities Act of 1933, as amended, of (i) 1,765,364 shares of your Common Stock
reserved for issuance under the 8x8 1992 Stock Option Plan; (ii) 999,753 shares
of your Common Stock reserved for issuance under the 8x8 1996 Stock Plan; (iii)
150,000 shares of Common Stock reserved for issuance under the 8x8 1996 Director
Option Plan; and (iv) 500,000 shares of your Common Stock reserved for issuance
under the 8x8 1996 Employee Stock Purchase Plan (collectively, the "Shares")
(collectively, the "Plans"). As legal counsel for 8x8, Inc., we have examined
the proceedings taken and are familiar with the proceedings proposed to be taken
by you in connection with the sale and issuance of the Shares under the Plans.
It is our opinion that, when issued and sold in the manner referred
to in the Plans and pursuant to the respective agreement which accompanies each
grant under the Plans, the Shares will be legally and validly issued, fully paid
and nonassessable.
We consent to the use of this opinion as an exhibit to the
Registration Statement and further consent to the use of our name wherever
appearing in the Registration Statement and any amendments to it.
Very truly yours,
WILSON SONSINI GOODRICH & ROSATI
