(1) the Company’s debt securities, which may be either senior (the “Senior Debt Securities”) or subordinated (together with the Senior Debt Securities, the “Debt Securities”);

(9) an indeterminate amount of Debt Securities, shares of Common Stock, shares of Preferred Stock, Warrants, Depositary Shares, Purchase Contracts, Units and Guarantees as may be issued upon settlement, exercise, conversion or exchange of any of the foregoing securities, including such indeterminate amount of such securities as may be issued pursuant to any applicable anti-dilution adjustment (collectively, the “Issuable Securities” and, together with the Debt Securities, Common Stock, Preferred Stock, Warrants, Depositary Shares, Purchase Contracts, Units and Guarantees, the “Securities”).

In connection with rendering the opinions set forth below, we have examined (i) the Registration Statement, including the exhibits filed therewith, and the prospectus contained therein (the “Prospectus”); (ii) the Company’s Restated Certificate of Incorporation, as amended (the “Certificate of Incorporation”); (iii) the Company’s Amended and Restated By-Laws (the “Bylaws”); (iv) the respective certificates of incorporation, certificates of formation or similar organic documents, as the case may be, of each of the Guarantors; (v) the respective bylaws, limited liability company agreements or similar organic documents, as the case may be, of each of the Guarantors; (vi) resolutions adopted by the Board of Directors of the Company (the “Board of Directors”) which authorize and provide for the filing of the Registration Statement; and (v) resolutions adopted by the boards of directors, partners or members, as the case may be, of each of the Guarantors which authorize and provide for the filing of the Registration Statement.

For the purposes of this opinion letter, we have assumed that (i) each document submitted to us is accurate and complete; (ii) each such document that is an original is authentic; (iii) each such document that is a copy conforms to an authentic original; and (iv) all signatures (other than signatures on behalf of the Company or any Guarantor) on each such document are genuine. We have further assumed the legal capacity of natural persons, and we have assumed that each party to the documents we have examined or relied on (other than the Company or any Guarantor) has the legal capacity or authority and has satisfied all legal requirements that are applicable to that party to the extent necessary to make such documents enforceable against that party. We have not verified any of the foregoing assumptions or any other assumptions set forth in this opinion letter.

The opinions expressed in this opinion letter are limited to (i) the law of the State of New York, other than its law relating to choice of law (other than Sections 5-1401 and 5-1402 of the General Obligations Law of the State of New York), (ii) applicable federal securities laws of the United States and (iii) the Delaware General Corporation Law (the “DGCL”). We are not opining on, and we assume no responsibility for, the applicability to or effect on any of the matters covered herein of (i) any other laws; (ii) the laws of any other jurisdiction; or (iii) the law of any county, municipality or other political subdivision or local governmental agency or authority.

2. When one or more certificates representing the shares of the Common Stock to be offered pursuant to the Registration Statement, each complying with all applicable requirements of the DGCL, have been duly executed, authenticated (if required), issued and delivered as contemplated by the Registration Statement and any supplement to the Prospectus relating to such offering (a “Prospectus Supplement”) or a report filed by the Company with the SEC under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and relating to such offering (an “Exchange Act Report”) and in accordance with any agreement or instrument binding upon the Company, the Common Stock will be validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable.

3.

4. Assuming that the terms of any Warrants offered pursuant to the Registration Statement have been duly established in accordance with the terms and conditions of an applicable warrant agreement pursuant to which such Warrants are to be issued (a “Warrant Agreement”), the Warrants will constitute valid and binding obligations of the Company, enforceable against the Company in accordance with their terms.

We also express no opinion concerning whether a U.S. federal court would accept jurisdiction in any dispute, action, suit or proceeding arising out of or relating to any agreement or the transactions contemplated thereby or the net impact or result of any conflict of laws between or among laws of competing jurisdictions and the applicability of the law of any jurisdiction in such instance.

We assume no obligation to update or supplement any of our opinions to reflect any changes of law or fact that may occur.
