Re: | Securities Registered under Registration Statement on Form S-3 |
We have acted as counsel to you in connection with your filing of a Registration Statement on Form S-3 (as amended or supplemented, the Registration Statement) filed on June 20, 2025 with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the Commission) pursuant to the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the Securities Act), relating to the registration of the offering by Inhibikase Therapeutics, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the Company) of up to $300,000,000 of any combination of securities of the types specified therein. Reference is made to our opinion letter dated June 20, 2025 and included as Exhibit 5.1 to the Registration Statement. We are delivering this supplemental opinion letter in connection with the sales agreement prospectus supplement (the Prospectus Supplement) included in the Registration Statement. The Prospectus Supplement relates to the offering by the Company of up to $200,000,000 in shares (the Shares) of the Companys common stock, par value $0.001 per share (Common Stock) covered by the Registration Statement. The Shares are being offered and sold by the sales agent named in, and pursuant to that certain Open Market Sale AgreementSM dated June 20, 2025, by and between the Company and such sales agent.
We have reviewed such documents and made such examination of law as we have deemed appropriate to give the opinion set forth below. We have relied, without independent verification, on certificates of public officials and, as to matters of fact material to the opinion set forth below, on certificates of officers of the Company.
For purposes of the opinion set forth below, we have assumed that the Shares are issued for a price per share equal to or greater than the minimum price authorized by the Companys board of directors (or a duly authorized committee of the board of directors) prior to the date hereof (the Minimum Price) and that no event occurs that causes the number of authorized shares of Common Stock available for issuance by the Company to be less than the number of then unissued Shares that may be issued for the Minimum Price.
For purposes of the opinion set forth below, we refer to the following as Future Approval and Issuance: (a) the approval by the Companys board of directors (or a duly authorized committee of the board of directors) of the issuance of the Shares (the Approval) and (b) the issuance of the Shares in accordance with the Approval and the receipt by the Company of the consideration (which shall not be less than the par value of such Shares) to be paid in accordance with the Approval.
The opinion set forth below is limited to the Delaware General Corporation Law.

We hereby consent to the filing of this opinion letter as Exhibit 5.2 to the Registration Statement and the reference to our firm therein.
