when duly awarded and issued upon satisfaction of rights to purchase such Shares in accordance with the terms of the applicable Plan and related award agreement, and assuming the Company completes all actions and proceedings required on its part to
be taken prior to the issuance and delivery of the Shares pursuant to the terms of the applicable Plan, including without limitation, collection of required payment for the Shares, the issuance and sale of the Shares will have been duly authorized
by all necessary corporate action of the Company, and the Shares will be validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px; text-indent:4%"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="2">This opinion is for
