(1) American Depositary Shares ("ADSs") issuable on deposit of ordinary shares of Teva Pharmaceutical Industries Limited (the "Registrant"), NIS 0.1 par value ("Ordinary Shares"), have been registered under a separate registration statement. One ADS equals one Ordinary Share.
(2) This Registration Statement on Form S-8 (this "Registration Statement") covers 68,000,000 Ordinary Shares, which may be issued under the Teva Pharmaceutical Industries Limited 2020 Long-Term Equity-Based Incentive Plan (the "Plan"), which was adopted on June 9, 2020 and became effective on July 1, 2020. In addition, this Registration Statement covers an indeterminable number of additional Ordinary Shares as may hereafter be offered or issued pursuant to the Plan to prevent dilution resulting from stock splits, stock dividends or similar transactions effected without the receipt of consideration and pursuant to Rule 416 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act").
(3) Estimated solely for calculating the amount of the registration fee, pursuant to Rule 457(h) under the Securities Act, based upon the average of the high and low prices per share of the Ordinary Shares represented by ADSs on July 31, 2020, as reported by the New York Stock Exchange.
This Registration Statement on Form S-8 (this "Registration Statement") is filed by Teva Pharmaceutical Industries Limited (the "Registrant"), to register 68,000,000 ordinary shares of the Registrant, NIS 0.1 par value ("Ordinary Shares"), which may be issued under the Teva Pharmaceutical Industries Limited 2020 Long-Term Equity-Based Incentive Plan (the "Plan"), which was adopted on June 9, 2020 and became effective on July 1, 2020.
Concurrently with this Registration Statement, the Registrant is filing post-effective amendments to prior Registration Statements (File Nos. 333-206753, 333-212851, 333-214077, 333-220382 and, 333-168331) to remove from registration the shares that remained available for grant under the Registrant's 2015 and 2010 Long-Term Equity-Based Incentive Plan, which remains in effect only with respect to previously granted awards.
* The document(s) containing the information specified in this Part I will be sent or given to employees as specified by Rule 428(b)(1) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"). Such documents need not be filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "Commission") either as part of this Registration Statement or as prospectuses or prospectus supplements pursuant to Rule 424 under the Securities Act. These documents and the documents incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement pursuant to Item 3 of Part II of this Form S-8, taken together, constitute a prospectus that meets the requirements of Section 10(a) of the Securities Act.
The following documents, filed with the Commission by the Registrant, are incorporated by reference into this Registration Statement:
All documents filed by the Registrant pursuant to Sections 13(a), 13(c), 14 and 15(d) of the Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act") on or after the date of this Registration Statement and prior to the filing of a post-effective amendment to this Registration Statement that indicate that all securities offered have been sold or that deregisters all securities then remaining unsold shall be deemed to be incorporated by reference in this Registration Statement and to be a part hereof from the date of filing of such documents; provided, however, that documents or information deemed to have been furnished and not filed in accordance with the rules of the Commission shall not be deemed incorporated by reference into this Registration Statement.
Any statement contained in a document incorporated or deemed to be incorporated by reference herein shall be deemed to be modified or superseded for purposes of this Registration Statement to the extent that a statement contained herein or in any subsequently filed document which also is or is deemed to be incorporated by reference herein modifies or supersedes such statement. Any such statement so modified or superseded shall not be deemed, except as so modified or superseded, to constitute a part of this Registration Statement.
Not applicable.
Not applicable.
The Israeli Companies Law, 5759-1999 (the "Companies Law") provides that a company may not exempt or indemnify a director or an executive officer (each an "Officer"), or enter into an insurance contract, which would provide coverage for any liability incurred as a result of any of the following: (i) a breach by the Officer of his or her duty of loyalty unless, with respect to insurance coverage or indemnification, due to a breach of his or her duty of loyalty to the company committed in good faith and with reasonable grounds to believe that such act would not prejudice the interests of the company; (ii) a breach by the Officer of his or her duty of care to the company committed intentionally or recklessly; (iii) any act or omission done with the intent of unlawfully realizing personal gain; or (iv) a fine, monetary sanction, forfeit or penalty imposed upon an Officer. In addition, the Companies Law provides that Officers can only be exempted in advance with respect to liability for damages caused as a result of a breach of their duty of care to the company (but not for such breaches committed intentionally or recklessly, as noted above, or in connection with a distribution (as defined in the Companies Law)).
Teva's Articles of Association include provisions under which Officers of Teva are or may be insured, exempted or indemnified against liability which they may incur in their capacities as such, subject to the Companies Law. Articles 102 through 105 of Teva's Articles of Association provide as follows:
(c) Financial liability which shall be imposed upon said Officer in favor of another person as a result of any action which was performed by said Officer in his or her capacity as an Officer of the company; including
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the company shall be entitled to insure, indemnify and exempt from liability any Officer of the company to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law. Accordingly, (i) any amendment to the Companies Law, the Securities Law or any other applicable law expanding the right of any Officer to be insured, indemnified or exempted from liability in comparison to the provisions of these Articles shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, immediately apply to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, and (ii) any amendment to the Companies Law, the Securities Law or any other applicable law adversely affecting the right of any Officer to be insured, indemnified or exempted from liability in comparison to the provision of these Articles shall not be in effect post factum and shall not affect the company's obligation or ability to insure, indemnify or exempt from liability an Officer for any act or omission occurring prior to such amendment, unless otherwise provided by applicable law.
Pursuant to indemnification and release agreements, Teva releases its Officers from liability and indemnifies them to the fullest extent permitted by law and the Articles. Under these agreements, Teva undertakes to indemnify each Officer for monetary liabilities imposed by a court judgment (including a settlement or an arbitrator's award that were approved by a court), provided that such undertaking (i) shall be limited to matters that are connected or otherwise related to certain events or circumstances set forth therein, and (ii) shall not exceed \$200 million in the aggregate per Officer. Under Israeli law, indemnification is subject to other limitations, including those described above. Subject to applicable law, Teva may also indemnify its Officers following specific events.
Teva's Officers are also covered by directors' and officers' liability insurance.
Not applicable.
The Exhibits to this Registration Statement are listed in the Exhibit Index and incorporated herein by reference.
(ii) to reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of the Registration Statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment thereof), which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in the Registration Statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than a 20% change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the "Calculation of Registration Fee" table in the effective Registration Statement;
(iii) 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;
provided, however, that paragraphs (1)(a)(i) and (1)(a)(ii) do not apply if the Registration Statement is on Form S-8, and the information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is contained in reports filed with, or furnished to, the Commission by the Registrant pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act that are incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement.
(b) 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.
(c) 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.
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 this 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.
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 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.

We are acting as special U.S. counsel to Teva Pharmaceutical Industries Limited, an Israeli corporation (the "Company"), in connection with the filing by the Company of a Registration Statement on Form S-8 (the "Registration Statement") under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Act"), with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "Commission") covering the offering by the Company of up to 68,000,000 ordinary shares, par value NIS 0.1 per share ("ordinary shares"), of the Company (the "Shares"), which were approved by the Company's shareholders at its Annual Meeting of Shareholders on June 9, 2020, to be issued under the Teva Pharmaceutical Industries Limited 2020 Long-Term Equity-Based Incentive Plan (the "Plan"). The Shares may be represented by the Company's American Depository Shares ("ADSs") under the Second Amended and Restated Deposit Agreement, dated as of December 4, 2018 (the "Deposit Agreement"), among the Company, Citibank N.A., as depositary (the "Depositary"), and the holders from time to time of the Company's ADSs. The Shares being registered are issuable to certain employees, officers, directors and consultants of the Company or its affiliates in connection with the grant of awards ("Awards") to such employees, officers, directors and consultants, as applicable, under the Plan (the "Awardholders").
For purposes of this letter, we have examined the Deposit Agreement and such documents, records, certificates, resolutions and other instruments, and considered such aspects of New York law, as we have deemed necessary as a basis for this opinion, and we have assumed the authenticity of all documents submitted to us as originals, the conformity to the originals of all documents submitted to us as copies and the authenticity of the originals of all documents submitted to us as copies.
Based upon and subject to the foregoing qualifications, assumptions and limitations and the further limitations set forth below, we advise you that (1) the Deposit Agreement, assuming due authorization, execution and delivery by the Depositary and the Company, constitutes a

legal, valid, binding and enforceable agreement of the Company, subject to applicable bankruptcy, insolvency and similar laws affecting creditors' rights generally, and subject to enforceability, to general principles of equity (regardless of whether enforcement is sought in a proceeding in equity or at law); and (2) the ADSs, when sold or delivered to Awardholders in accordance with the Plan and the Awards granted thereunder, will entitle the holders of such ADSs to the rights specified in the Deposit Agreement.
Our opinions expressed above are subject to the qualification that we express no opinion as to the applicability of, compliance with or effect of any laws except the internal laws of the State of New York.
We hereby consent to the filing of this opinion with the Commission as Exhibit 5.1 to the Registration Statement. In giving this consent, we do not thereby admit that we are in the category of persons whose consent is required under Section 7 of the Act or the rules and regulations of the Commission.
We do not find it necessary for the purposes of this opinion, and accordingly we do not purport to cover herein, the application of the securities or "Blue Sky" laws of the various states to the issuance and sale of the Shares.
This opinion is limited to the specific issues addressed herein, and no opinion may be inferred or implied beyond that expressly stated herein. We assume no obligation to revise or supplement this opinion.
This opinion is furnished to you in connection with the filing of the Registration Statement, and is not to be used, circulated, quoted or otherwise relied upon for any other purposes.

Ladies and Gentlemen,
We refer to the Registration Statement on Form S-8 (the "Registration Statement") to be filed by Teva Pharmaceutical Industries Limited., a company organized under the laws of the State of Israel (the "Company" or "Teva"), with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission under the United States Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Act"), relating to the proposed registration of 68,000,000 ordinary shares, NIS 0.1 par value each of the Company (the "Shares"), which will be deposited as American Depositary Shares, authorized for issuance pursuant to Teva's 2020 Long-Term Equity-Based Incentive Plan (the "Plan"), as provided for therein.
As Israeli counsel to the Company in connection with the registering of the Shares pursuant to the Registration Statement, we have examined originals or copies, certified or otherwise identified to our satisfaction, of such corporate records, consents, resolutions, minutes and other documents provided to us by the Company as we have deemed necessary or appropriate in order to enable us to express the opinions hereinafter set forth. Insofar as the opinions expressed herein involve factual matters, we have relied exclusively (without independent factual investigation or verification) upon certificates of, and other communications with, officers and employees of the Company and upon certificates of public officials.
In making the examination described above, we have assumed the genuineness of all signatures, the capacity of natural persons, the authenticity and completeness of all documents submitted to us as originals, the conformity to original documents of all documents submitted to us as certified, photostatic or facsimile copies, the authenticity of the originals of such documents and the legal capacity and due authenticity of all persons executing such documents. We have assumed the same to have been properly given and to be accurate, we have assumed the truth of all facts communicated to us by the Company, and we have assumed that all consents, resolutions and minutes of meetings of the Company's board of directors, of committees thereof and of the shareholders which have been provided to us are true and accurate and have been properly prepared in accordance with the Company's incorporation documents and all applicable laws.
Based upon the foregoing and in reliance thereon, we are of the opinion that all necessary corporate proceedings by the Company have been duly taken to authorize the issuance of the Shares pursuant to the Plan and the Shares, when, and if, issued and paid for (or deemed paid for) in accordance with the terms and conditions of the respective awards and the Plan will be duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable.
The opinions expressed herein are limited to matters governed by the laws of the State of Israel, and we express no opinion with respect to the laws of any other country, state or jurisdiction or with respect to any matter governed by such laws. This opinion is expressly limited to the matters set forth above, and we render no opinion, whether by implication or otherwise, to any other matters.
The opinions set forth herein are made as of the date hereof and are subject to, and may be limited by, future changes in the factual matters set forth herein, and we undertake no duty to advise you of any such changes. The opinions expressed herein are based upon the law in effect (and published or otherwise generally available) on the date hereof, and we assume no obligation to revise or supplement these opinions should such law be changed by legislative action, judicial decision or otherwise.
The opinions expressed herein represent the judgment of this law firm as to the legal matters addressed herein but they are not guarantees or warranties as to how a court may rule on such matters and should not be construed as such.
We hereby consent to the filing of this opinion as an exhibit to the Registration Statement. In giving this consent, we do not admit that we are in the category of persons whose consent is required under Section 7 of the Act or the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder.
This opinion shall be governed by the laws of the State of Israel, and exclusive jurisdiction with respect thereto under all and any circumstances, and under all and any proceedings shall be vested only and exclusively with the courts of Tel Aviv in the State of Israel. This opinion is rendered to you subject to, based and in reliance on your agreement to comply with the exclusive choice of law and jurisdiction contained herein and to refrain under all and any circumstances from initiating any proceedings or taking any legal action relating to this opinion outside of the State of Israel.
Very truly yours,
