Automatic Shelf Registration Statement on Form S-3
(File No. 333-          )

Ladies and Gentlemen:

        I am Executive Vice President, General Counsel and Secretary of Rite Aid Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the "Company"), and in such capacity have acted as counsel to the Company and each of the Company's subsidiaries listed on Schedule I hereto (the "Additional Registrants") in connection with the Automatic Shelf Registration Statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-          ) (the "Registration Statement"), to be filed on the date hereof by the Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "Commission") under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Act"). The Registration Statement relates to the issuance and sale from time to time by the Company and holders of certain equity securities of the Company, pursuant to Rule 415 of the General Rules and Regulations promulgated under the Act, of the following securities of the Company: (i) senior debt securities (which may be secured or unsecured) or subordinated debt securities, which may be in one or more series (the "Debt Securities"), and which may be guaranteed by one or more of the Additional Registrants, which may be issued under one or more indentures relating to either senior debt securities (which may be secured or unsecured) or subordinated debt securities, as applicable (the "Indenture" or "Indentures"), proposed to be entered into between the Company and BNY Midwest Trust Company (the "Trustee"); (ii) guarantees of the Debt Securities (the "Guarantees") that may be issued from time to time by one or more of the Additional Registrants; (iii) shares of preferred stock, $1.00 par value per share, of the Company (the "Preferred Stock"), in one or more series; (iv) shares of common stock, $1.00 par value per share, of the Company ("Common Stock"); (v) warrants ("Warrants") to purchase Debt Securities, Preferred Stock, Common Stock or other securities of the Company as shall be designated by the Company at the time of the offering issued pursuant to one or more warrant agreements (each a "Warrant Agreement") proposed to be entered into between the Company and warrant agents to be named (the "Warrant Agent" or "Warrant Agents"); and (vi) such indeterminate amount of Debt Securities and number of shares of Preferred Stock or Common Stock as may be issued as dividends on Preferred Stock or upon conversion, exchange or exercise of any Debt Securities, Preferred Stock or Warrants, including such shares of Preferred Stock or Common Stock as may be issued pursuant to anti-dilution adjustments, in amounts, at prices and on terms to be determined at the time of offering (the "Indeterminate Stock"). The Debt Securities, the Guarantees, the Preferred Stock, the Common Stock, the Warrants and the Indeterminate Stock are collectively referred to herein as the "Offered Securities."

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

        I am a member of the bar of the State of California and I do not express any opinion as to the laws of any other jurisdiction other than the State of California, the Delaware General Corporation Law and the federal laws of the United States to the extent specifically referred to herein.

        In connection with this opinion, I have examined originals or copies, certified or otherwise identified to my satisfaction, of:

(i)

the Registration Statement relating to the Offered Securities;

(ii)

the Restated Certificate of Incorporation of the Company, as amended to the date hereof (the "Certificate of Incorporation");



(iii)

the By-laws of the Company, as currently in effect (the "By-laws");



(iv)

form of Senior Secured Indenture between the Company and BNY Midwest Trust Company, and the form of senior secured note included therein;



(v)

form of Senior Indenture between the Company and BNY Midwest Trust Company, and the form of senior note included therein;



(vi)

form of Senior Indenture between the Company and BNY Midwest Trust Company, and the form of senior note included therein (Exhibit 4.11 to Form S-3A, filed on January 14, 2005);



(vii)

form of Subordinated Indenture between the Company and BNY Midwest Trust Company, and the form of subordinated note included therein (Exhibit 4.12 to Form S-3A, filed on January 14, 2005);



(viii)

certain resolutions adopted on February     •    , 2007 by the Executive Committee of the Board of Directors of the Company (the "Board of Directors") relating to the registration of the Offered Securities;



(ix)

the charters and by-laws (or other applicable constituent documents) of each of the Additional Registrants; and



(x)

certain resolutions adopted by the board of directors or the board of managers, as applicable, of the Additional Registrants relating to the registration of the Offered Debt Securities (as defined below), the Guarantees and related matters.

        I have also examined originals or copies, certified or otherwise identified to my satisfaction, of such records of the Company and the Additional Registrants, and such agreements, certificates of public officials, certificates of officers or other representatives of the Company, the Additional Registrants and others, and such other documents, certificates and records as I have deemed necessary or appropriate as a basis for the opinions set forth herein.

        In my examination, I have assumed the legal capacity of all natural persons, the genuineness of all signatures, the authenticity of all documents submitted to me as originals, the conformity to original documents of all documents submitted to me as electronic, certified, conformed, photostatic or facsimile copies and the authenticity of the originals of such latter documents. In making my examination of executed documents or documents to be executed, I have assumed that the parties thereto, other than the Company and the Additional Registrants, had or will have the power, corporate or otherwise, to enter into and perform all obligations thereunder and have also assumed the due authorization by all requisite action, corporate or other, and the execution and delivery by such parties of such documents, and, as to parties other than the Company and the Additional Registrants, the validity and binding effect on such parties. I have assumed that the Indentures and any supplemental indentures thereto and the Warrant Agreements will be duly authorized, executed and delivered by the Trustee and Warrant Agents, respectively, and that any Debt Securities, Guarantees or Warrants that may be issued will be manually signed or countersigned, as the case may be, by duly authorized officers of the Trustee or the Warrant Agents, respectively. In addition, I have also assumed that the terms of the Offered Debt Securities (as defined below) and Offered Warrants (as defined below) will have been established so as not to violate, conflict with or constitute a default under (i) any agreement or instrument to which the Company or any Additional Registrant or their respective properties are subject, (ii) any law, rule or regulation to which the Company or any Additional Registrant is subject, (iii) any judicial or regulatory order or decree of any governmental authority or (iv) any consent, approval, license, authorization or validation of, or filing, recording or registration with any governmental authority.

2
