We have been further informed that the Subsidiary Guarantor will provide a Guarantee of the Exchange Notes (in each as the term Guarantee is defined in the respective Indenture), and that the terms and conditions of such Guarantee are set forth within the Indentures (collectively, the “Guarantees”). We are providing this opinion in connection with the Company’s filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission of a Registration Statement on Form S-4 related to the exchange of the Notes for the Exchange Notes.
