<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0"><FONT STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif">I
have examined the Registration Statement on Form&nbsp;S-8 (the </FONT>&ldquo;Registration Statement&rdquo;) of Gilead Sciences,&nbsp;Inc.,
a Delaware corporation (the &ldquo;Company&rdquo;), to be filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the &ldquo;Commission&rdquo;)
pursuant to the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the &ldquo;Securities Act&rdquo;), in connection with the offering by the Company
of up to 12,069,378 shares of the Company&rsquo;s common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the &ldquo;Shares&rdquo;). The Shares
subject to the Registration Statement are to be issued under the Gilead Sciences,&nbsp;Inc. 2018 Equity Incentive Plan (the &ldquo;Plan&rdquo;).
The Plan was assumed by the Company in connection with the consummation of the transactions contemplated by that certain Agreement
and Plan of Merger, dated as of March&nbsp;1, 2020 (the &ldquo;Transaction Agreement&rdquo;), by and among the Company and Forty
Seven,&nbsp;Inc., a Delaware corporation and Toro Merger Sub,&nbsp;Inc., a Delaware corporation and wholly-owned subsidiary of
the Company.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">I have examined the Plan and the Transaction Agreement and the
resolutions of the Company&rsquo;s Board of Directors authorizing such transactions and the assumption of the Plan and the originals,
or photostatic or certified copies, of such records of the Company and certificates of officers of the Company and of public officials
and such other documents as I have deemed relevant and necessary as the basis for the opinion set forth below. I have also made
such other investigations as I have deemed relevant and necessary or appropriate in connection with the opinion hereinafter set
forth. In my examination,&nbsp;I have assumed the genuineness of all signatures, the legal capacity and competency of all natural
persons, the authenticity of all documents submitted to me as originals and the conformity to original documents of all documents
submitted to me as copies. I have also assumed that there are no agreements or understandings between or among the Company and
any participants in the Plan that would expand, modify or otherwise affect the terms of the Plan or the rights or obligations of
the participants thereunder. Finally,&nbsp;I have assumed the accuracy of all other information provided to me by the Company during
the course of my investigations, on which I have relied in issuing the opinion expressed below.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">Based upon the foregoing examination and in reliance thereon,
and subject to the assumptions stated here and in reliance on the statements of fact contained in the documents that I have examined,&nbsp;I
am of the opinion that the Shares, when issued and sold in accordance with the terms set forth in the Plan and against payment
therefor, and when the Registration Statement has become effective under the Securities Act, will be validly issued, fully paid
and non-assessable.</P>

consent is required under Section&nbsp;7 of the Securities Act or the Rules&nbsp;and Regulations of the Commission.</P>
