In connection with the opinions expressed herein, we have examined such documents, records and matters of law as we have deemed relevant or necessary for purposes of such opinions. Based on the foregoing, and subject to the further assumptions, qualifications and limitations set forth herein, we are of the opinion that:

In rendering the foregoing opinions, we have assumed that the resolutions authorizing the Company to issue and deliver the Warrant Shares pursuant to the Warrants by the Company’s Board of Directors (or an authorized committee thereof) will be in full force and effect at all times at which such Warrant Shares are issued and delivered by the Company, and the Company will take no action inconsistent with such resolutions.

 

As to facts material to the opinions and assumptions expressed herein, we have relied upon oral or written statements and representations of officers and other representatives of the Company and others. The opinions expressed herein are limited to the corporate laws of the State of Delaware, as currently in effect, and we express no opinion as to the effect of the laws of any other jurisdiction on the opinions expressed herein.
