Re:    Registration Statement on Form F-3
Ladies and Gentlemen:
We serve as special U.S. counsel to Similarweb Ltd., a company organized under the laws of the State of Israel (the “Company”), and have been requested to render this opinion in connection with the Registration Statement on Form F-3 of the Company (the “Registration Statement”), filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) on May 10, 2024, including the preliminary prospectus included therein at the time the Registration Statement becomes effective (the “Prospectus”), under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), for registration by the Company of up to $87,575,000 of Securities (as defined below) and up to 15,000,000 Ordinary Shares Offered by certain selling shareholders.
As used herein, the term “Securities” includes (i) the Company’s ordinary shares, par value NIS 0.01 per share (the “Ordinary Shares”), (ii) debt securities, consisting of debentures, notes, bonds and/or other evidences of indebtedness of the Company, to be issued in one or more series (the “Debt Securities”), (iii) warrants to purchase Debt Securities or Ordinary Shares (the “Warrants”), (iv) subscription rights to purchase Debt Securities or Ordinary Shares (the “Subscription Rights”), (v) units consisting of any combination of Ordinary Shares, Debt Securities and Warrants (the “Units”), (vi) Ordinary Shares issuable upon conversion or exercise as the case may be of the Debt Securities and/or Warrants, and (vii) Ordinary Shares held by certain selling shareholders. The Registration Statement provides that the Securities may be offered separately or together, in separate series, in amounts, at prices and on terms to be set forth in one or more supplements to the Prospectus (each, a “Prospectus Supplement”) or any related free writing prospectus (each, a “Free Writing Prospectus”).
In connection with our representation of the Company, and as a basis for the opinion expressed herein, we have reviewed originals or copies, certified or otherwise identified to our satisfaction, of the following documents (collectively, the “Documents”):
 
 (a)the Registration Statement, including the Prospectus, and the form of indenture filed as Exhibit 4.1 thereto;
 
 (b)
resolutions adopted by the Board of Directors of the Company (the “Board”) on May 10, 2024, relating to, among other matters, the authorization of the filing of the Registration Statement (in the form attached to the Secretary’s Certificate);

a certificate executed by an officer of the Company (the “Secretary’s Certificate”), dated as of the date hereof, as to certain factual matters therein; and

 (d)And such other records, documents, certificates, opinions, memoranda and other instruments as in our judgment are necessary or appropriate to enable us to render the opinion expressed below.
In examining the Documents, we have assumed, without independent investigation, the genuineness and validity of all signatures, the legal capacity of all individuals who have executed any of the aforesaid documents, the authenticity of all documents submitted to us as originals, and the conformity with originals of all documents submitted to us as copies (and the authenticity of the originals of such copies), the absence of other agreements or understandings among the parties that would modify the terms of the proposed transactions or the respective rights or obligations of the parties thereunder and the accuracy and completeness of all public records reviewed by us. In making our examination of documents executed by parties other than the Company, we have assumed that such parties had the power and authority (corporate, trust, partnership or other) to enter into and perform all obligations thereunder, and we have also assumed the due authorization by all requisite action (corporate, trust, partnership or other) and the valid execution and delivery by such parties of such documents and the validity, binding effect and enforceability thereof with respect to such parties. As to any facts material to this opinion, we have relied solely upon the Secretary’s Certificate.

 (a)
The issuance, sale, amount and terms of the Debt Securities, including as to any Ordinary Shares to be issued on the exercise thereof, to be offered from time to time by the Company will be authorized and determined by proper action of the Board (or where permitted, a committee of the Board) of the Company (each, a “Board Action”) in accordance with the Company’s Amended and Restated Articles of Association (the “Articles”) and applicable law and in conformity with the Indenture, in each case so as not to result in a default under or breach of any instrument, document or agreement binding upon the Company and so as to comply with any requirement or restriction imposed by any court or governmental or regulatory body having jurisdiction over the Company.
 
 (b)The Company will not issue any Securities in excess of the number or amount authorized by a Board Action.
 
 (c)
Any Debt Securities will be issued under a valid and legally binding indenture (an “Indenture”), as it may be supplemented by a valid and legally binding supplemental indenture (each a “Supplemental Indenture”), and in each case duly authorized, executed and delivered by the Company, and, if required by the Indenture, accompanied by an officer’s certificate that conforms to the description thereof set forth in the Prospectus, the applicable Prospectus Supplement and any related Free Writing Prospectus.
