In expressing the opinion set forth below, we have assumed the following:

1.              Each individual executing any of the Documents, whether on behalf of such individual or another person, is legally competent to do so.

2.              Each individual executing any of the Documents on behalf of a party (other than the Company) is duly authorized to do so.

4.              All Documents submitted to us as originals are authentic. The form and content of all Documents submitted to us as unexecuted drafts do not differ in any respect relevant to this opinion from the form and content of such Documents as executed and delivered. All Documents submitted to us as certified or photostatic copies conform to the original documents. All signatures on all Documents are genuine.

5.              Upon the issuance of any Securities that are Common Stock (“Common Securities”), including Common Securities that may be issued upon conversion or exchange of any other Securities convertible into or exchangeable for Common Securities, the total number of shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding will not exceed the total number of shares of Common Stock that the Company is then authorized to issue under the Charter.

6.              Upon the issuance of any Securities that are Preferred Stock (“Preferred Securities”), including Preferred Securities that may be issued upon conversion or exchange of any other Securities convertible into or exchangeable for Preferred Securities, the total number of shares of Preferred Stock issued and outstanding and the total number of issued and outstanding shares of the applicable class or series of Preferred Stock designated pursuant to the Charter will not exceed the total number of shares of Preferred Stock or the number of shares of such class or series of Preferred Stock that the Company is then authorized to issue under the Charter.

3.              Upon completion of all Corporate Proceedings relating to the Preferred Securities, the Preferred Securities will be duly authorized for issuance and, when and if issued and delivered against payment therefor and otherwise in accordance with the Corporate Proceedings, will be validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable.

4.              Upon the completion of all Corporate Proceedings relating to the Debt Securities, the Debt Securities will be duly authorized for issuance.
