 <P STYLE="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">For purposes of rendering the opinions stated below, we have assumed, with your consent, the accuracy of
the representations contained in the Certificate of Representations provided to us by the Company and the Manager, and that each representation contained in such Certificate of Representations to the best of the Company&#146;s or the Manager&#146;s
knowledge or belief is accurate and complete without regard to such qualification as to the best of such entity&#146;s knowledge or belief. These representations generally relate to the organization and method of operation of the Company.
</FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">Based upon, subject to, and limited by the assumptions and qualifications set forth herein, we are of the opinion that: </FONT></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">1. Commencing with its taxable year ended December&nbsp;31, 2009, the Company has been organized and operated in conformity with the requirements for
qualification as a real estate investment trust (a &#147;REIT&#148;) under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the &#147;Code&#148;), and its proposed method of operation as described in the Registration Statement and as set forth in the
Certificate of Representations will enable the Company to continue to meet the requirements for qualification as a REIT under the Code; and, </FONT></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">2. The statements in in the Registration Statement under the caption &#147;U.S. Federal Income Tax Considerations,&#148; to the extent they describe
applicable U.S. federal income tax law, are correct in all material respects. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">The opinions set forth in this letter are based on relevant
provisions of the Code, Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder, interpretations of the foregoing as expressed in court decisions, legislative history, and existing administrative rulings and practices of the Internal Revenue Service
(&#147;IRS&#148;) (including its practices and policies in issuing private letter rulings, which are not binding on the IRS except with respect to a taxpayer that receives such a ruling), all as of the date hereof. These provisions and
interpretations are subject to change, which may or may not be retroactive in effect, and which may result in modifications of our opinions. Our opinions do not foreclose the possibility of a contrary determination by the IRS or a court of competent
jurisdiction, or of a contrary determination by the IRS or the Treasury Department in regulations or rulings issued in the future. In this regard, an opinion of counsel with respect to an issue represents counsel&#146;s best professional judgment
with respect to the outcome on the merits with respect to such issue, if such issue were to be litigated, but an opinion is not binding on the IRS or the courts and is not a guarantee that the IRS will not assert a contrary position with respect to
such issue or that a court will not sustain such a position asserted by the IRS. </FONT></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12px;margin-bottom:0px"><FONT STYLE="font-family:Times New Roman" SIZE="2">The opinions set forth above represent our conclusions based
upon the documents, facts, representations and assumptions referred to above. Any material amendments to such documents, changes in any significant facts or inaccuracy of such representations or assumptions could affect the opinions referred to
herein. Moreover, the Company&#146;s qualification as a REIT depends upon the ability of the Company to meet for each taxable year, through actual annual operating results, requirements under the Code regarding gross income, assets, distributions
and diversity of stock ownership. We have not undertaken to review the Company&#146;s compliance with these requirements on a continuing basis. Accordingly, no assurance can be given that the actual results of the Company&#146;s operations for any
single taxable year have satisfied or will satisfy the tests necessary to qualify as a REIT under the Code. Although we have made such inquiries and performed such investigations as we have deemed necessary to fulfill our professional
responsibilities as counsel, we have not undertaken an independent investigation of all of the facts referred to in this letter or the Certificate of Representations. </FONT></P>
