In connection with this opinion, I have examined originals or copies, certified or otherwise identified to my satisfaction, of such corporate records of the Company and such other documents, records, certificates and other instruments of officials of the Company, public officials and others as I have deemed necessary or appropriate as a basis for the opinion set forth herein. I have assumed the genuineness of all signatures, the authenticity of all documents submitted to me as originals and the conformity to authentic original documents of all copies submitted to me as conformed and certified or reproduced copies. As to any facts material to the opinion expressed herein which I have not independently established or verified, I have relied upon statements and representations of officers and other representatives of the Company and others.
I am admitted to the practice of law in the District of Columbia and I am registered as in-house counsel in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, and I express no opinion with respect to any other laws.

I hereby consent to the filing of this opinion as an exhibit to the Registration Statement. In giving my consent, I do not thereby admit that I am included in the category of persons whose consent is required under Section 7 of the Securities Act or the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder.
