Re: FAST Merger Corp. Registration Statement on Form S-4

Ladies and Gentlemen:

We have acted as special counsel to FAST Merger Corp., a Texas corporation (the “Company”), in connection with the Registration Statement on Form S-4, filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) on October [ ], 2021, as amended and supplemented through the date hereof, under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”) (such Registration Statement, as amended or supplemented, is hereinafter referred to as the “Registration Statement”), relating to, among other things, the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated February 1, 2021 (as amended by that certain Amendment No. 1 to Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of June 30, 2021, the “Merger Agreement”), by and among FAST Acquisition Corp., a Delaware corporation ("FAST"), Fertitta Entertainment, Inc., a Texas corporation ("FEI"), the Company, and FAST Merger Sub Inc., a Texas corporation ("Merger Sub"), pursuant to which (i) FAST will change its jurisdiction of incorporation to Texas (the "reincorporation") by merging with and into the Company, with the Company surviving the merger (the "TX Merger"), pursuant to the Merger Agreement, (ii) following the TX Merger, Merger Sub will merge with and into FEI (the "Merger"), with FEI surviving the merger and the stockholders of FEI will receive shares of Class B common stock of New FEI ("New FEI Class B common stock"), and (iii) immediately following the Merger, FEI shall merge with and into Florida Merger Sub LLC ("LLC Sub"), a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, with LLC Sub surviving such merger as a direct, wholly owned subsidiary of the Company (the "LLC Sub Merger" and, together with the Merger, the "Integrated Mergers"). Upon consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement (the "Business Combination"), LLC Sub will be a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. In connection with the Business Combination, the Company will be renamed and said renamed entity may be referred to herein as New FEI. The Business Combination is subject to satisfaction or waiver of a number of conditions, including, among others, approval and adoption of the Merger Agreement by the FAST's stockholders.

Under the terms of the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated February 1, 2021 (the “TX Merger Agreement”), by and among the FAST and the Company (i) each share of Class A common stock issued and outstanding in FAST will be cancelled and will be automatically converted into one share of Class A common stock of the Company (the “New FEI Class A common stock”), (ii) each share of Class B Common Stock issued and outstanding in FAST (other than shares that are forfeited by the holders thereof) shall be cancelled and will be automatically converted into one share of New FEI Class A common stock and (iii) each warrant to acquire shares of Class A common stock of the Company (the “Warrants”) that is issued and outstanding will automatically and irrevocably be modified (pursuant to the terms of the Warrant Agreement, dated August 20, 2020, (the “Warrant Agreement”) between FAST and Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company) to provide that such warrant will entitle the holder thereof to acquire one share of New FEI Class A common stock.
