The Securities are being offered to the public pursuant to an underwriting agreement, dated September 10, 2021 (the “Underwriting Agreement”) among the Company, the Operating Partnership and J.P. Morgan Securities LLC, Truist Securities, Inc., and U.S. Bancorp Investments, Inc., as representatives (collectively, the “Representatives”) of the several underwriters (the “Underwriters”) named in Schedule 1 thereto. The Securities have been issued pursuant to a base indenture dated September 15, 2021 (the “Base Indenture”) among the Company, the Operating Partnership and U.S. Bank National Association, as trustee (the “Trustee”), as amended by a the first supplemental indenture dated September 15, 2021 (the “First Supplemental Indenture,” and together with the Base Indenture, the “Indenture”). With your permission, all assumptions and statements of reliance herein have been made without any independent investigation or verification on our part, and we express no opinion with respect to the subject matter or accuracy of such assumptions or items relied upon. The Underwriting Agreement, the Base Indenture, the First Supplemental Indenture, the Notes, the notations of guarantee evidencing the Guarantees and any other documents contemplated thereby or hereby are collectively referred to herein as the “Documents.”

In connection with this opinion, we have (i) investigated such questions of law, (ii) examined originals or certified, conformed, electronic or reproduction copies of such agreements, instruments, documents and records of the Company and the Operating Partnership,

such certificates of public officials and such other documents, and (iii) received such information from officers and representatives of the Company and the Operating Partnership, in each case, as we have deemed necessary or appropriate for the purposes of this opinion.

In all such examinations, we have assumed the legal capacity of all natural persons, the genuineness of all signatures, the authenticity of original and certified documents and the conformity to original or certified documents of all copies submitted to us as certified, conformed, electronic or reproduction copies. As to various questions of fact relevant to the opinions expressed herein, we have relied upon, and assume the accuracy of, certificates and oral or written statements and other information of or from public officials and officers and representatives of the Company, the Operating Partnership and others.

To the extent it may be relevant to the opinions expressed below, we have assumed that (i) all of the parties to the Documents (other than the Operating Partnership) are or will be validly existing and in good standing under the laws of their respective jurisdictions of organization; (ii) all of the parties to the Documents (other than the Operating Partnership) have the power and authority to (a) execute and deliver the Documents, (b) perform their obligations thereunder and (c) consummate the transactions contemplated thereby; (iii) each of the Documents have been or will be duly authorized, executed and delivered by, each of the parties thereto (other than the Operating Partnership); (iv) each of the Documents will constitute a valid and binding obligation of each of the parties thereto (other than as expressly addressed in the opinions below as to the Company and the Operating Partnership), enforceable against such parties in accordance with their terms; (v) all of the parties to the Documents will comply with all of their obligations under the Documents and all laws applicable thereto; (vi) the Notes have been duly authenticated and delivered by the Trustee against payment therefor in accordance with the Documents; and (vii) the Notes and the notations of guarantee evidencing the Guarantees conform to the specimens thereof examined by us.

Based upon the foregoing, and subject to the limitations, qualifications and assumptions set forth herein, we are of the opinion that (i) the Notes constitute valid and binding obligations of the Operating Partnership enforceable against the Operating Partnership in accordance with their terms and (ii) the Guarantees constitute valid and binding obligations of the Company enforceable against the Company in accordance with its terms.

We express no opinion as to the validity or binding effect of any provision of the Documents:

(H)    requiring that any unearned portion of the Notes issued at a discount be paid upon acceleration or otherwise earlier than the stated final maturity; or

(I)    which may be construed to be in the nature of a penalty.

We express no opinion as to the validity or binding effect of any provision of the Documents (i) providing for payments thereunder in a currency other than currency of the United States of America to the extent that a court of competent jurisdiction, under applicable law, will convert any judgment rendered in such other currency into currency of the United States of America or to the extent that payment in a currency other than currency of the United States of America is contrary to applicable law, (ii) providing for governmental authority to limit, delay or prohibit the making of payments outside the United States or in foreign currency or composite currency or (iii) concerning the enforceability of the waiver of rights or defenses contained in the Documents relating to waiver of stay, extension or usury laws.
