Re: FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSEQUENCES OF THE EXCHANGE OFFER
Gentlemen:
You have requested our opinion as to certain federal income tax
consequences of the transactions contemplated by the exchange offer ("Exchange
Offer") to be made by VASCO Data Security International, Inc., a Delaware
corporation ("New VASCO"), to holders of stock and securities in VASCO CORP., a
Delaware corporation ("Current VASCO"), as more fully described in the
Registration Statement on Form S-4 (Reg. No. 333-35563), as amended and
supplemented to and including the date hereof, filed by New VASCO with the
Securities and Exchange Commission (the "Registration Statement"). Capitalized
terms used herein and not otherwise defined have the meanings given to them in
the Registration Statement.
In rendering our opinion, we have examined and relied upon the accuracy
and completeness of the facts, information, covenants and representations
contained in originals or copies, certified or otherwise identified to our
satisfaction, of the Prospectus filed as part of the Registration Statement
as amended and supplemented to and including the date hereof (the "Prospectus"),
and such other documents and representations of representatives of New VASCO
as we have deemed necessary or appropriate. In our examination, we have
assumed the genuineness of all signatures, the legal capacity of natural

persons, the authenticity of all documents submitted to us as originals, the
conformity to original documents of all documents submitted to us as certified
or photostatic copies and the authenticity of the originals of such documents.
We have also assumed the transactions related to the Exchange Offer will be
consummated as described in the Prospectus.
In rendering our opinion, we have considered the applicable provisions
of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, proposed, temporary and final
Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder, pertinent judicial authorities,
interpretive rulings of the Internal Revenue Service and other authorities as
we have considered relevant. We caution that statutes, regulations, judicial
decisions and administrative interpretations are subject to change at any time
and, in some circumstances, with retroactive effect. A change in the
authorities upon which our opinion is based could affect the conclusions stated
herein.
Based on the foregoing, we are of the opinion that the statements and
legal conclusions contained in the Prospectus under the caption "REORGANIZATION
OF CURRENT VASCO - Federal Income Tax Consequences," to the extent that they
constitute matters of law or legal conclusions, are correct in all material
respects. In addition, we consent to the reference to Jenner & Block in the
Prospectus under the caption "Legal Matters" and to the filing of this opinion
as an exhibit to the Registration Statement. In giving this consent, we do not
hereby 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 Securities and Exchange Commission.
Except as expressly set forth in the Prospectus, we express no opinion
to any party as to the tax consequences, whether federal, state, local or
foreign, of the Exchange Offer or of any transaction related to the Exchange
Offer.
Very truly yours,
/s/ Jenner & Block
