<p style="font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:10pt;font-variant:normal;text-align:justify;margin:0pt;text-indent:59pt;">Under Section 145 of the Delaware General Corporation Law, a corporation may indemnify a director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation (or a person who is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise) against expenses (including attorneys' fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by the person if he acted in good faith and in a manner he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe his conduct was unlawful. In the case of an action brought by or in the right of a corporation, the corporation may indemnify a director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation (or a person who is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise) against expenses (including attorneys' fees) actually and reasonably incurred by him if he acted in good faith and in a manner he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation, except that no indemnification may be made in respect of any claim, issue or matter as to which such person shall have been adjudged to be liable to the corporation unless and only to the extent a court finds that, in view of all the circumstances of the case, such person is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity for such expenses as the court shall deem proper.</p>

<p style="font-family:'Times New Roman';font-size:10pt;font-variant:normal;margin:0pt;">&nbsp;</p>

<p style="font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:10pt;font-variant:normal;text-align:justify;margin:0pt;text-indent:59pt;">The Company&#8217;s certificate of incorporation provides that no director of the Company shall be liable to the Company or its stockholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director to the fullest extent permitted by law. The Company&#8217;s certificate of incorporation also provides that the Company shall indemnify to the fullest extent permitted by Delaware law any and all of its directors and officers, or former directors and officers, or any person who may have served at the Company&#8217;s request as a director or officer of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise.</p>

<p style="font-family:'Times New Roman';font-size:10pt;font-variant:normal;margin:0pt;">&nbsp;</p>

<p style="font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:10pt;font-variant:normal;text-align:justify;margin:0pt;text-indent:59pt;">The Company has entered into indemnification agreements with each of its directors and executive officers to give such directors and officers additional contractual assurances regarding the scope of the indemnification set forth in our certificate of incorporation and to provide additional procedural protections. The Company also intends to enter into indemnification agreements with any new directors and executive officers in the future.</p>

<p style="font-family:'Times New Roman';font-size:10pt;font-variant:normal;margin:0pt;">&nbsp;</p>

<p style="font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:10pt;font-variant:normal;text-align:justify;margin:0pt;text-indent:59pt;">The indemnification provisions in the Company&#8217;s certificate of incorporation and the indemnification agreements entered into between the Company and each of its directors and executive officers may be sufficiently broad to permit indemnification of the Company&#8217;s directors and executive officers for liabilities arising under the Securities Act.</p>

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.</p>

<p style="font-family:'Times New Roman';font-size:10pt;font-variant:normal;margin:0pt;">&nbsp;</p>

<p style="font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:10pt;font-variant:normal;text-align:justify;margin:0pt;text-indent:36pt;">I have acted as counsel to Fuel Tech, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the &#8220;Company&#8221;), in connection with the preparation and filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission of a registration statement on Form S-8 (the &#8220;Registration Statement&#8221;) of the Company, covering 4,481,748 shares (the &#8220;Shares&#8221;) of the Common Stock, $0.01 par value per share, of the Company, issuable pursuant to the Fuel Tech, Inc. 2024 Long-Term Incentive Plan (as amended, the &#8220;Plan&#8221;).</p>

<p style="font-family:'Times New Roman';font-size:10pt;font-variant:normal;margin:0pt;">&nbsp;</p>

<p style="font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:10pt;font-variant:normal;text-align:justify;margin:0pt;text-indent:36pt;">In rendering the opinion set forth herein, I have examined originals or copies, certified or otherwise identified to our satisfaction, of: (i) the Registration Statement and the Plan; (ii) the Certificate of Incorporation, the By-Laws and resolutions of the Company and its stockholders approving the Plan; and (iii) such other records, documents, certificates and other instruments as we have deemed relevant and necessary as a basis for the opinion expressed herein. I have assumed the legal capacity of natural persons, genuineness of all signatures, the authenticity of all documents submitted to us as originals, the conformity to originals of all documents submitted to us as telecopies, electronic copies or conformed or certified copies, and the authenticity of the originals of such copies. As to all questions of fact material to this opinion, I have relied without independent inquiry or investigation, upon statements and representations of officers and other representatives of the Company.</p>

<p style="font-family:'Times New Roman';font-size:10pt;font-variant:normal;margin:0pt;">&nbsp;</p>

<p style="font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:10pt;font-variant:normal;text-align:justify;margin:0pt;text-indent:36pt;">Based upon the foregoing, and in reliance thereon, and subject to the qualifications, assumptions and exceptions heretofore and hereinafter set forth and subject to compliance with applicable state securities laws, I am of the opinion that, upon the issuance of the Shares against receipt of the consideration therefor in accordance with the Plan (and in accordance with the terms of any written options, option agreements or other agreements issued or entered into pursuant to the Plan) and as contemplated by the Registration Statement, the Shares will be validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable.</p>

<p style="font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:10pt;font-variant:normal;text-align:justify;margin:0pt;text-indent:36pt;">I consent to the filing of this letter as an exhibit to the Registration Statement and further consent to the use of my name wherever appearing in the Registration Statement. In giving this consent, I do not thereby 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 promulgated thereunder by the Securities and Exchange Commission.
