Ladies and Gentlemen:
We have acted as special counsel in the State of Texas (the “State”) to the guarantors named onAnnex A attached hereto (each, a “Guarantor” and collectively, theGuarantors”) in connection with the Registration Statement on Form S-4 (the “Registration Statement”) filed by the Issuers and the Guarantors with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Act”) relating to the issuance by the Issuers of up to $250,000,000 aggregate principal amount of 10.5% Senior Notes due 2020 (the “Exchange Securities”) and the issuance by the Guarantors of guarantees (the “Exchange Guarantees”) with respect to the Exchange Securities. The Exchange Securities and Exchange Guarantees will be issued under an indenture dated as of January 30, 2012 (as amended by the first supplemental indenture dated as of March 13, 2012, the “Indenture”), among the Issuers, the Guarantors and Wilmington Trust, National Association, as trustee. The Exchange Securities and the Exchange Guarantees will be offered by the Issuers in exchange for their outstanding 10.5% Senior Notes due 2020 that were issued on January 30, 2012.
In connection with rendering the opinions expressed below, we have examined the following documents and instruments:

officials, the assumptions set forth elsewhere herein and certificates of officers and representatives of the Guarantors reasonably believed by us to be appropriate sources of information, as to the accuracy of factual matters.

| 1. | The Indenture, including the Exchange Guarantees contained therein, has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by each of the Guarantors. |
