In my capacity as Senior Vice President, Chief Compliance Officer, and Executive Counsel of the Company, I am familiar with the Company’s Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation and Amended and Restated By-Laws, each as amended to date, have familiarized myself with the matters discussed herein, and have examined the Registration Statement, the Plan, and all statutes, corporate records, and other instruments or documents pertaining to the matters discussed herein that I deem necessary to examine as a basis for the opinions expressed herein. In making my examination, I have assumed that all signatures on all documents examined by me are genuine, that all documents submitted to me as originals are accurate and complete, that all documents submitted to me as copies are true and correct copies of the originals thereof, and that all information submitted to me was accurate and complete.

On the basis of the foregoing, I am of the opinion that, the Shares have been duly authorized and when issued by the Company pursuant to the terms of the Plan, will be validly issued, fully paid, and non-assessable.
