We are members of the Bar of the State of Wisconsin, and we have not considered, and do not express any opinion as to, the laws of any jurisdiction other than the Wisconsin Business Corporation Law as in effect on the date hereof and we do not express any opinion as to the effect of any other laws on the opinion stated herein. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing limitations (and without expanding in any way any of the opinions that are set forth in this letter), we express no opinion regarding the legality, validity, binding effect or enforceability of the Guarantees, any of the other Securities or any other agreement or document.

It is understood that the opinions set forth below are to be used only in connection with the offer, issuance and sale of the Securities while the Registration Statement is in effect. The Registration Statement provides that the Securities may be offered in amounts, at prices and on terms to be set forth in one or more prospectus supplements or free writing prospectuses.

This opinion letter is being delivered in accordance with the requirements of Item 601(b)(5) of Regulation S-K promulgated under the Act.

In rendering the opinions set forth below, we have examined and are familiar with originals or copies, certified or otherwise identified to our satisfaction, of, (i) the articles of incorporation of Sturm, as in effect on the date hereof, (ii) the Third Amended and Restated Bylaws of Sturm, as in effect on the date hereof, (iii) the Registration Statement and (iv) the Indentures. We have also examined originals, or copies certified to our satisfaction, of such corporate records of Sturm and other instruments, certificates of public officials and representatives of Sturm and other documents as we have deemed necessary as a basis for the opinions hereinafter expressed. In such examination, we have assumed the genuineness of all signatures, the authenticity of all documents submitted to us as originals and the conformity with the originals of all documents submitted to us as copies. We have also assumed that each of the Company, BVF, and S.T. Foods is and will remain duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under applicable state law.

On the basis of the foregoing, and subject to (i) the Registration Statement and any amendments thereto being effective under the Act, (ii) the applicable Indenture under which Debt Securities are issued having been validly executed and delivered by the Company, the Subsidiary Guarantors and the other parties thereto, (iii) a prospectus supplement having been filed with the Commission describing the Securities being offered thereby and (iv) all Securities being issued and sold in the manner stated in the Registration Statement and the applicable prospectus supplement and in accordance with a duly executed and delivered purchase, underwriting or similar agreement with respect to the Securities, we are of the opinion that:

1 Sturm is a corporation validly existing under the laws of the State of Wisconsin, has filed its most recent required annual report and has not filed articles of dissolution with the Wisconsin Department of Financial Institutions.

2 Sturm has the corporate power to enter into, and perform its obligations under, the Guarantees.

The opinions expressed herein are subject in all respects to the following additional assumptions, qualifications, limitations, conditions and exclusions:

1. We express no opinion as to any of the Securities or any document or agreement other than the Guarantees. With respect to the Guarantees, we express no opinion as to the due authorization, execution, and delivery or as to the validity, binding effect or enforceability of the Guarantees.

2. In rendering the opinions set forth in Paragraph 1 above, we have relied solely upon a certificate of the Wisconsin Department of Financial Institutions dated April 13, 2017.

3. We have assumed that the terms of the Guarantees and the other Securities and of their issuance and sale, as applicable, will be duly established in conformity with the Indentures and reflected in appropriate documentation and, if applicable, executed and delivered by each party thereto, so as not to violate, conflict with or constitute or result in a breach under (a) any applicable law or public policy, (b) the organizational documents of the issuer thereof or (c) any agreement or instrument binding upon such issuer, and so as to comply with any requirement or restrictions imposed by any court or governmental body having jurisdiction over such issuer or applicable law or public policy.

4. With respect to the Guarantees, we have assumed that Sturm will receive adequate and sufficient consideration therefor, and such Guarantees will constitute valid and legally binding obligations of Sturm enforceable in accordance with their terms, subject to bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent transfer, reorganization, moratorium and similar laws of general applicability relating to or affecting creditors’ rights and to general equity principles.

5. We have assumed that the final form of the Guarantees and all other documents for the Securities will not have any material differences from those customarily used in transactions of this type.
