We have examined the originals, or copies certified or otherwise identified to our satisfaction, of that certain Indenture, dated as of June 13, 2014, with U.S. Bank National Association (“U.S. Bank”), as supplemented (the “2019 Indenture”), and that certain Indenture, dated as of June 13, 2014, with U.S. Bank, as supplemented (the “2024 Indenture,” and together with the 2019 Indenture, the “Indentures”), the Delaware Guarantees (as defined below), and such other documents, corporate records, certificates of officers of the Company and the Delaware Guarantor and of public officials and other instruments as we have deemed necessary or advisable to enable us to render these opinions. For purposes of this opinion, we have not reviewed any documents other than the documents listed or otherwise referred to above. In our

examination, we have assumed, without independent investigation, the genuineness of all signatures, the legal capacity and competency of all natural persons, the authenticity of all documents submitted to us as originals and the conformity to original documents of all documents submitted to us as copies. We have further assumed that all documents submitted to us for our review have not been and will not be altered or amended in any respects material to our opinions expressed herein. As to any facts material to these opinions, we have relied to the extent we deemed appropriate and without independent investigation upon statements and representations of officers and other representatives of the Company and the Delaware Guarantor and others, all of which we have assumed, and the attorneys working on this matter have no actual knowledge otherwise, to be true, complete, and accurate in all material respects.

For purposes of this opinion, we have assumed, to the extent relevant to the opinions expressed herein, (i) except as set forth in numbered paragraph 1 below, the due incorporation, formation, or creation, as the case may be, and valid existence in good standing of each party, other than the Delaware guarantor, to the documents examined by us under the laws of the jurisdiction governing such party’s incorporation, formation, or creation, (ii) except as set forth in numbered paragraph 2 below, that each of the parties to the documents examined by us, other than the Delaware guarantor, had the power and authority to execute and deliver, and to perform such party’s obligations under, such documents, and (iii) except as set forth in numbered paragraphs 2 and 3 below, the due authorization, execution and delivery by all parties thereto of all documents examined by us.

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

1. The Delaware Guarantor is validly existing and in good standing as a limited partnership under the laws of the State of Delaware, with power to authorize, execute and deliver the Delaware Guarantees and to perform its obligations thereunder.

2. The Guarantees to be executed by the Delaware Guarantor (the “Delaware Guarantees”) have been duly authorized by all necessary company action on the part of the Delaware Guarantor.

3. The authorization, execution, delivery and performance of the Delaware Guarantees do not and will not violate (a) the organizational documents of the Delaware Guarantor, (b) any order, judgment, writ or decree of any Delaware court or other agency of government of which we have actual knowledge that is material to the Delaware Guarantor taken as a whole and that is binding on the Delaware Guarantor or (c) any law or regulation currently in effect in the State of Delaware applicable to the Delaware Guarantor.

4. No registration with, consent, authorization or approval of or notice to, or other action to, with or by, any Delaware governmental or regulatory body by or on behalf of the Delaware Guarantor is required to make valid and legally binding the execution and delivery by the Delaware Guarantor of the Delaware Guarantees and the performance of its obligations thereunder.
