LLC, BofA Securities, Inc., J.P. Morgan Securities LLC and Morgan Stanley & Co. LLC, as representatives of the underwriters named on Schedule I thereto. The Shares were registered pursuant to the Registration Statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-259681) (the “Registration Statement”) previously filed by the Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) on September 21, 2021 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and the prospectus dated September 21, 2021 included therein (the “Base Prospectus”), as supplemented by the preliminary prospectus supplement dated September 21, 2021 and the final prospectus supplement dated September 21, 2021, filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) under the Securities Act (collectively, the “Prospectus Supplements” and, together with the Base Prospectus, the “Prospectus”). The Shares are to be sold by the Company as described in the Registration Statement, the Prospectus and the Underwriting Agreement.
In connection with our opinion expressed below we have examined originals or copies of the Company’s Restated Certificate of Incorporation filed with, and certified by, the Delaware Secretary of State (the “Restated Certificate”) and the Company’s Restated Bylaws (the “Restated Bylaws”), the Registration Statement, together with the Exhibits filed as a part thereof and all other documents incorporated therein by reference, the Prospectus, certain corporate proceedings of the Company’s board of directors (the “Board”) or a committee or committees thereof and the Company’s stockholders relating to the adoption or approval of the Restated Certificate and Restated Bylaws, the filing of the Registration Statement and the registration of the Shares, and such other agreements, documents, certificates and statements of the Company, its transfer agent and public or government officials, as we have deemed advisable, and have examined such questions of law as we have considered necessary.
We have assumed the authenticity of all documents submitted to us as originals, the genuineness of all signatures on documents submitted to us, the conformity to originals and completeness of all documents submitted to us as copies, the legal capacity of all persons or entities executing the same, the absence of any undisclosed termination, modification, waiver or amendment to any document reviewed by us, the absence of any other extrinsic agreements or documents that might change or affect the interpretation or terms of documents we have reviewed, and the due authorization, execution and delivery of all such documents where due authorization, execution and delivery are prerequisites to the effectiveness thereof. In giving our opinion, we have also relied upon a good standing certificate regarding the Company issued by the Delaware Secretary of State dated September 24, 2021 and a management certificate addressed to us and dated of even date herewith executed by the Company containing certain factual representations by the Company.
