In that regard, we generally are familiar with the proceedings required to be taken in connection with the proposed authorization, issuance and sale of the Offered Notes and have examined copies of such documents, corporate records and other instruments as we have deemed necessary or appropriate for the purpose of this opinion, including the Prospectus, the Trust Agreement, the Indenture and other documents prepared in connection with the issuance of the Offered Notes (collectively, the “Operative Documents”). In addition, we have assumed that the Operative Documents with respect to the Offered Notes are executed and delivered in substantially the form we have examined and that the transactions contemplated to occur under the Operative Documents in fact occur in accordance with the terms thereof.

We hereby confirm and adopt the Opinions set forth in the Prospectus (to the extent they relate to federal income tax consequences) under the captions “Summary of Terms—Tax Status” and “Material United States Federal Income Tax Consequences.”

The opinion set forth herein is based upon the applicable provisions of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, Treasury regulations promulgated and proposed thereunder, current positions of the Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) contained in published Revenue Rulings and Revenue Procedures, current administrative positions of the IRS and existing judicial decisions. No tax rulings will be sought from the IRS with respect to any of the matters discussed herein. The statutory provisions, regulations and interpretations on which our opinions are based are subject to change, which changes could apply retroactively. In addition, there can be no assurance that positions contrary to those stated in our opinion may not be taken by the IRS.

We know that we are referred to under the captions referred to above included in the Prospectus, and we hereby consent to the use of our name therein and to the use of this opinion for filing of this opinion as Exhibit 8.1 to a Form 8-K filed in connection therewith, without admitting we are “experts” within the meaning of the Act, or the rules and regulations of the Commission issued thereunder, with respect to any part of the Registration Statement or Prospectus, including this exhibit.

Sincerely,
