Re:	U.S. Concrete, Inc. Registration Statement on Form S-4 (File No. 333-186493)

Ladies and Gentlemen:

We have acted as special Maryland counsel to MG, LLC, a Maryland limited liability company (the “Company”), in connection with that certain Registration Statement on Form S-4, as amended (File No. 333‑186493)(the “Registration Statement”), filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission’) by U.S. Concrete, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“U.S. Concrete”), the Company, and certain other subsidiary guarantors identified in the Registration Statement, under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Act”). The Registration Statement relates to (i) up to $69,300,000 aggregate principal amount of 9.5% Senior Secured Notes Due 2015 (the “Exchange Securities”) of U.S. Concrete to be issued pursuant to an Indenture (the “Indenture”) to be entered into by U.S. Concrete, the subsidiaries of U.S. Concrete, including the Company, set forth in Schedule A to the Registration Statement (each a “Guarantor” and collectively, the “Guarantors”) and U.S. Bank National Association, as trustee (the “Trustee”), pursuant to the exchange offer (the “Exchange Offer”) described in the Registration Statement and (ii) the guarantees by the Guarantors of the Exchange Securities pursuant to the Indenture (each a “Note Guarantee” and together the “Note Guarantees”). U.S. Concrete has previously issued $55,000,000 aggregate principal amount of 9.5% Convertible Secured Notes due 2015 under the Indenture, dated August 31, 2010, by and among U.S. Concrete, the Guarantors, and the Trustee, as trustee, as amended by the First Supplemental Indenture, dated as of October 30, 2012, by and among Bode Gravel Co. and Bode Concrete LLC, as new guarantors, and the Trustee, as trustee (as so amended, the “Old Convertible Securities” and the “Old Convertible Indenture”). If any of the Old Convertible Securities are not exchanged for Exchange Securities in the Exchange Offer, the remaining Old Convertible Securities and the Old Convertible Indenture will be amended by the Second Supplemental Indenture (the “Supplemental Indenture”) to be entered into by and among the Company, the Guarantors and the Trustee, as trustee (as so amended, the “Amended Convertible Securities” and the “Amended Convertible Indenture”). The Registration Statement also relates to (i) the Amended Convertible Securities, if any, and (ii) the guarantees by the Guarantors of the

Amended Convertible Securities pursuant to the Amended Convertible Indenture (the “Amended Convertible Guarantees”). We refer to the Amended Convertible Indenture and the Indenture collectively as the “Indentures,” the Amended Convertible Securities and the Exchange Securities collectively as the “Securities,” and the Indentures, the Securities and the Supplemental Indenture collectively as the “Opinion Documents.” Unless otherwise indicated, capitalized terms used herein but not otherwise defined herein shall have the respective meanings set forth in the Indenture. U.S. Concrete, the Guarantors and the Trustee are sometimes referred to herein collectively as “Parties.” This opinion is being furnished in accordance with the requirements of Item 601(b)(5) of Regulation S-K under the Act.

We have been retained solely for the purpose of rendering certain opinions pursuant to Maryland law.

In rendering the opinions set forth herein, we have examined the following documents:

IV.	The Officer’s Certificate with respect to the Company, dated as of the date hereof, signed by an authorized officer of the Company (the “Officer’s Certificate”).


V.	Forms of the Indenture, including the Note Guarantee included in Article Thirteen therein, and the Supplemental Indenture.


VI.	The Old Convertible Indenture in the form on file with the Commission as Exhibit 4.2 to U.S. Concrete’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed on September 2, 2010 (File No. 000-26025).

Insofar as an opinion expressed herein relates to our knowledge of factual matters set forth in the Officer’s Certificate, we have relied solely upon such certificate with respect to the accuracy and completeness of the statements contained in such certificate and we have not independently verified or established the accuracy or completeness of such statements.

In basing the opinions and other matters set forth herein on “our knowledge,” the words “our knowledge” and similar language used herein signify that, in the course of our representation of the Company in matters with respect to which we have been engaged by the Company as counsel, no information has come to our attention that would give us actual knowledge or actual notice that any such opinions or other matters are not accurate or that any of the foregoing documents, certificates, reports, and information on which we have relied are not accurate and complete. Except as otherwise stated herein, we have undertaken no independent investigation or verification of such matters. The words “our knowledge” and similar language used herein are limited to the knowledge of the lawyers within our firm who have worked on matters for the Company.

In reaching the opinions set forth below, we have assumed, without making any independent investigation or verification of such matters, and to our knowledge there are no facts inconsistent with, the following: (i) all certificates of public officials and all records and documents furnished to us by or on behalf of the Company and examined by us in connection with the preparation of this opinion letter are authentic and, to the extent material to any opinion hereinafter expressed, accurate and complete, and, to the extent represented by photostatic or certified copies, conform to the respective originals; (ii) all signatures contained in such records and documents (including the signatures of officers of the Company) are genuine signatures of the party purporting to have signed the same; (iii) all natural persons signing said documents and records had, at the time of such signing, full legal capacity to sign and deliver said documents and records; (iv) no action has been taken which amends, revokes or terminates any of the corporate and organizational documents and records, certificates and representations which we have reviewed; (v) the Indenture is in substantially the form on file as Exhibit 4.16 to the Registration Statement; (vi) all verbal statements from employees or public officials are accurate and no facts or circumstances have occurred after such statements were made which may render such statements untrue; and (vii) consideration that is fair and sufficient to support the Company’s Guarantee has been and would be deemed by a court of competent jurisdiction to have been, legally adequate and duly received by the Company.

Based upon and subject to the foregoing, and subject to the qualifications, exceptions, limitations and further assumptions set forth herein, we are of the opinion that:


1.	The Company is a limited liability company duly formed, validly existing and, based solely upon the Good Standing Certificate, in good standing under the laws of the State of Maryland.


2.	The Company’s issuance of the Note Guarantee, the Amended Convertible Guarantee and its guarantee related to the Old Convertible Indenture (together, the “Guarantees”) and its performance thereof have been duly authorized by the Company.

3.	The Company’s execution, delivery and performance of its obligations under the Indenture, the Supplemental Indenture and the Old Convertible Indenture and the performance of its obligations under the Amended Convertible Indenture has been duly authorized by the Company.

The issuance of the Guarantees by the Company, and the execution, delivery and performance by the Company of the Indenture, the Old Convertible Indenture, the Supplemental Indenture and the performance of its obligations under the Amended Convertible Indenture and of the Guarantees do not and will not violate the Articles of Organization or the Operating Agreement of the Company or any Maryland statute, or any rule or regulation that has been issued pursuant to any Maryland statute, or any order known to us to have been issued by any Maryland court, governmental agency or body having jurisdiction over the Company or any of its properties.

The opinions expressed herein are subject to the following additional assumptions, limitations, qualifications and exceptions:


i.	As to factual matters, we have relied upon the Officer’s Certificate.

ii.

Our opinions are subject to the effects of bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, arrangement, moratorium, fraudulent transfer, fraudulent conveyance or similar laws or equitable principles (whether applied in any proceeding at law or in equity) of general application now or hereafter in effect relating to or affecting the rights of creditors. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, our opinion expressed in Paragraph 4 is qualified to the extent the execution, delivery and performance by the Company of the Indenture and/or the Company Guarantee may violate Maryland laws governing fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer.


iii.	We express no opinion as to the application or requirements of any Maryland or federal securities, patent, trademark, health and safety, labor, employment, land use and subdivision, copyright, antitrust or unfair competition, environmental, transportation, pension or employee benefit, or tax laws, or any rule or regulation promulgated thereunder.


iv.	We express no opinion as to the laws, ordinances, zoning restrictions, rules or regulations of any city, county or other municipality or any other local governmental agency.


v.	Our opinions are limited to the laws of the State of Maryland. We express no opinion as to the effect or applicability of any law of any other jurisdiction or as to any provision in the Indenture providing for the application of any other law. In this regard, we note that the Indentures, including the Guarantees, state that they are governed by New York law.
