Based upon and subject to the foregoing, we are of the opinion that when the Shares have been delivered to and paid for by the Investor as contemplated by the Purchase Agreement, the Shares will be duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable.

We hereby consent to the filing of this opinion with the Commission as an exhibit to the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K being filed on the date hereof and incorporated by reference into the Registration Statement. We also hereby consent to the reference to our firm under the caption “Legal Matters” in the Prospectus Supplement.
