The Prospectus pertains to the proposed offer and sale by the Company of 13,065,453 shares of common stock, $0.001 par value per share (the “Firm Shares”), plus up to an additional 1,959,817 shares of common stock subject to an over-allotment option (the “Optional Shares”), pursuant to an Underwriting Agreement, dated July 26, 2013 (the “Underwriting Agreement”), by and between the Company and Janney Montgomery Scott LLC. The Firm Shares and the Optional Shares are herein referred to as the “Shares.”

This opinion letter is rendered by us pursuant to Item 601(b)(5)(i) of Regulation S-K.

In such examinations, we have assumed the genuineness of all signatures on all original documents, the authenticity of all documents submitted to us as originals, the conformity to original documents of all copies submitted to us, the authenticity of the originals of documents submitted to us as copies and the due execution and delivery of all documents where due execution and delivery are prerequisite to the effectiveness thereof.

As to questions of fact material to this opinion, we have relied solely upon statements of officers of the Company. We have assumed and relied upon the accuracy and completeness of such statements, and nothing has come to our attention leading us to question the accuracy of the stated matters.
