Capitalized terms used but not defined in this letter have the respective meanings assigned to such terms in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.
The Certificates have been offered pursuant to the Depositor’s prospectus, dated November 13, 2015 (the “Base Prospectus”), as supplemented by a prospectus supplement, dated November 24, 2015 (including the annexes and exhibits attached thereto, but excluding any DVD, CD-ROM, computer diskette or any other electronic media that may accompany the printed version thereof, the “Prospectus Supplement” and, collectively with the Base Prospectus, the “Prospectus”).

Furthermore, except for the matters that are specifically addressed in any opinion expressed below, we have assumed, to the extent relevant to the opinions expressed below, (i) the authenticity of all documents submitted to us as originals or as copies or specimens thereof, the conformity to the originals of all documents submitted to us as copies or specimens, the genuineness of all signatures and the legal capacity of natural persons, (ii) the necessary entity formation and continuing existence in the jurisdiction of formation, and the necessary licensing and qualification in all jurisdictions, of all parties to all documents, (iii) the enforceability (as limited by bankruptcy and other insolvency laws) and, with respect thereto and to any other matter herein to which relevant, any necessary entity power and authority, authorization, execution, authentication, payment and delivery of, under and with respect to all documents to which this opinion letter relates, (iv) that the execution, delivery and performance of the documents to which this opinion relates do not contravene the organizational documents of any party, (v) the necessary ownership of and/or other rights and interests in assets, and the necessary adequacy and fairness of any consideration for such assets, (vi) the accuracy of the representations and warranties as to factual matters, and compliance by the parties thereto with the covenants, contained in any document referred to herein or otherwise reviewed by us in connection with rendering this opinion letter, (vii) the conformity of the underlying assets and related documents to the requirements of any agreement to which this opinion letter relates and (viii) that there is not any other agreement that modifies or supplements the agreements expressed in any document to which this opinion letter relates in a manner that affects the correctness of any opinion expressed below.

In addition, we assume, for purposes of this opinion letter, the conformity of the text of the Base Prospectus and the Prospectus Supplement filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) through the Commission’s Electronic Data Gathering, Analysis and Retrieval System to the printed copies of such documents reviewed by us.

Based upon and subject to the foregoing, it is our opinion that:
1. When the Certificates have been duly executed, authenticated or countersigned (as applicable) and delivered by the Certificate Administrator in the manner contemplated by the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, and paid for and sold to the Underwriters in accordance with the Underwriting Agreement, the Certificates will be validly issued and outstanding, fully paid and non-assessable and entitled to the benefits of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.
2. The descriptions of federal income tax consequences appearing under the heading “MATERIAL FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSEQUENCES” in each of the Base Prospectus and the Prospectus Supplement, while not purporting to discuss all possible federal income tax consequences of an investment in the Certificates, accurately describe in all material respects the federal income tax consequences to holders of the Certificates which are discussed, under existing law and subject to the qualifications and assumptions stated therein. We also hereby confirm and adopt the opinions expressly set forth under such headings, under existing law and subject to the qualifications and assumptions stated therein.
This opinion letter is rendered for the sole benefit of the addressee hereof with respect to the matters specifically addressed herein, and no other person or entity is entitled to rely hereon. The procedures undertaken by us in connection with this opinion letter do not constitute “due diligence services” as defined in Rule 17g-10 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), and this opinion letter does not constitute a “due diligence report” for purposes of Rule 15Ga-2 of the Exchange Act. No person is permitted to use, furnish or refer to this opinion letter in connection with such rules without our prior written approval. We assume no obligation to revise, supplement or withdraw this opinion letter, or otherwise inform the addressee hereof or other person or entity, with respect to any change occurring subsequent to the delivery hereof in any applicable fact or law or any judicial or administrative interpretation thereof, even though such change may affect a legal analysis or conclusion contained herein.
