Ladies and Gentlemen:

Hanesbrands Inc., a Maryland corporation (the “Company”), proposes to issue and sell to the several Initial Purchasers listed in Schedule 1 hereto (the “Initial Purchasers”), for whom you are acting as representatives (the “Representatives”), $1,000,000,000 principal amount of its 6.375% Senior Notes due 2020 (the “Securities”). The Securities will be issued pursuant to an Indenture dated as of August 1, 2008 (the “Base Indenture”), as supplemented by a Supplemental Indenture (the “Supplemental Indenture”) dated as of November 9, 2010 (the Base Indenture, as supplemented by the Supplemental Indenture, being called the “Indenture”) among the Company, the guarantors listed in Schedule 2 hereto (the “Guarantors”) and Branch Banking and Trust Company, as trustee (the “Trustee”), and will be guaranteed on an unsecured senior basis by each of the Guarantors (the “Guarantees”). The Indenture is unlimited in aggregate principal amount, although the issuance of Securities in this offering is limited to $1,000,000,000. The Company may issue an unlimited principal amount of additional securities having identical terms and conditions as the Securities (the “Additional Securities”). Any Additional Securities will be part of the same series of the Securities that the Company is currently offering and holders of any Additional Securities will vote on all matters with holders of the Securities.

The holders of the Securities will be entitled to the benefits of a registration rights agreement, to be dated as of the Closing Date (as defined herein) (the “Registration Rights Agreement”), among the Company, the Guarantors and the Initial Purchasers, pursuant to which the Company and the Guarantors may be required to file with the Commission (as defined below), under the circumstances set forth therein, (i) a registration statement under the Securities Act (as defined below) relating to another series of debt securities of the Company with terms substantially identical to the Securities (the “Exchange Securities”) to be offered in exchange for the Securities (the “Exchange Offer”) and (ii) a shelf registration statement pursuant to Rule 415 of the Securities Act relating to the resale by certain holders of the Notes, and in each case, to use its reasonable best efforts to cause such registration statements to be declared effective. All references herein to the Exchange Securities and the Exchange Offer are only applicable if the Company and the Guarantors are in fact required to consummate the Exchange Offer pursuant to the terms of the Registration Rights Agreement.

The Company understands that the Initial Purchasers propose to make an offering of the Securities on the terms and in the manner set forth herein and in the Pricing Disclosure Package (as defined below) and agrees that the Initial Purchasers may resell, subject to the conditions set forth herein, all or a portion of the Securities to purchasers (the “Subsequent Purchasers”) on the terms set forth in the Pricing Disclosure Package (the first time

when sales of the Securities are made is referred to as the “Time of Sale”). The Securities are to be offered and sold to or through the Initial Purchasers without being registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) under the Securities Act of 1933 (as amended, the “Securities Act,” which term, as used herein, includes the rules and regulations of the Commission promulgated thereunder), in reliance upon exemptions therefrom. Pursuant to the terms of the Securities and the Indenture, investors who acquire Securities shall be deemed to have agreed that Securities may only be resold or otherwise transferred, after the date hereof, if such Securities are registered for sale under the Securities Act or if an exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act is available (including the exemptions afforded by Rule 144A under the Securities Act (“Rule 144A”) or Regulation S under the Securities Act (“Regulation S”)).

The Company has prepared and delivered to each Initial Purchaser copies of a Preliminary Offering Memorandum, dated November 4, 2010 (the “Preliminary Offering Memorandum”), and has prepared and delivered to each Initial Purchaser copies of a Pricing Term Sheet, dated November 4, 2010 (the “Pricing Supplement”), describing the terms of the Securities, each for use by such Initial Purchaser in connection with its solicitation of offers to purchase the Securities. The Preliminary Offering Memorandum and the Pricing Supplement are herein referred to as the “Pricing Disclosure Package.” Promptly after this Agreement is executed and delivered, the Company will prepare and deliver to each Initial Purchaser a final offering memorandum dated the date hereof (the “Final Offering Memorandum”).

All references herein to the terms “Pricing Disclosure Package” and “Final Offering Memorandum” shall be deemed to mean and include all information filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (as amended, the “Exchange Act,” which term, as used herein, includes the rules and regulations of the Commission promulgated thereunder) prior to the Time of Sale and incorporated by reference in the Pricing Disclosure Package (including the Preliminary Offering Memorandum) or the Final Offering Memorandum (as the case may be), and all references herein to the terms “amend,” “amendment” or “supplement” with respect to the Final Offering Memorandum shall be deemed to mean and include all information filed under the Exchange Act after the Time of Sale and incorporated by reference in the Final Offering Memorandum.

The Company hereby confirms its agreements with the Initial Purchasers as follows:

1. Purchase of the Securities by the Initial Purchasers

(a) The Company agrees to issue and sell the Securities to the several Initial Purchasers as provided in this Agreement, and each Initial Purchaser, on the basis of the representations, warranties and agreements set forth herein and subject to the conditions set forth herein, agrees, severally and not jointly, to purchase from the Company the respective principal amount of Securities set forth opposite such Initial Purchaser’s name in Schedule 1 hereto at a price equal to 98% of the principal amount thereof plus accrued interest, if any, from November 9, 2010 to the Closing Date (as defined below). The Company will not be obligated to deliver any of the Securities except upon payment for all the Securities to be purchased as provided herein.

The Global Note will be made available for inspection by the Representatives not later than 12:00 P.M., New York City time, on the business day prior to the Closing Date.

(e) The Company and the Guarantors acknowledge and agree that the Initial Purchasers are acting solely in the capacity of an arm’s length contractual counterparty to the Company and the Guarantors with respect to the offering of Securities contemplated hereby (including in connection with determining the terms of the offering) and not as a financial advisor or a fiduciary to, or an agent of, the Company, the Guarantors or any other person. Additionally, neither the Representatives nor any other Initial Purchaser is advising the Company, the Guarantors or any other person as to any legal, tax, investment, accounting or regulatory matters in any jurisdiction. The Company and the Guarantors shall consult with their own advisors concerning such matters and shall be responsible for making their own independent investigation and appraisal of the transactions contemplated hereby, and the Initial Purchasers shall have no responsibility or liability to the Company or the Guarantors with respect thereto. Any review by the Initial Purchasers of the Company, the Guarantors, the transactions contemplated hereby or other matters relating to such transactions will be performed solely for the benefit of the Initial Purchasers and shall not be on behalf of the Company or the Guarantors.

(b) Indemnification of the Company and the Guarantors. Each Initial Purchaser agrees, severally and not jointly, to indemnify and hold harmless the Company, each of the Guarantors, each of their respective directors, their respective officers who signed the Registration Statement and each person, if any, who controls the Company or any of the Guarantors within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act to the same extent as the indemnity set forth in paragraph (a) above, but only with respect to any and all losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions and proceedings in respect thereof) that arise out of, or are based upon, any untrue statement or omission or alleged untrue statement or omission made in reliance upon and in conformity with any information relating to such Initial Purchaser furnished to the Company in writing by such Initial Purchaser through the Representatives expressly for use in the Preliminary Offering Memorandum, the Pricing Supplement, any Company Additional Written Communication or the Final Offering Memorandum (or any amendment or supplement thereto), it being understood and agreed that the only such information consists of the following: the statements in set forth in the ninth and tenth paragraphs under the caption “Plan of Distribution” in the Preliminary Offering Memorandum and the Final Offering Memorandum.

(c) Notice and Procedures. If any suit, action, proceeding (including any governmental or regulatory investigation), claim or demand shall be brought or asserted against any person in respect of which indemnification may be sought pursuant to either paragraph (a) or (b) above, such person (the “Indemnified Person”) shall promptly notify the person against whom such indemnification may be sought (the “Indemnifying Person”) in writing; provided that the failure to notify the Indemnifying Person shall not relieve it from any liability that it may have under this Section 6 except to the extent that it has been materially prejudiced (through the forfeiture of substantive rights or defenses) by such failure; and provided, further, that the failure to notify the Indemnifying Person shall not relieve it from any liability that it may have to an Indemnified Person otherwise than under this Section 6. If any such proceeding shall be brought or asserted against an Indemnified Person and it shall have notified the Indemnifying Person thereof, the Indemnifying Person shall retain counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Person (who shall not, without the consent of the Indemnified Person, be counsel to the Indemnifying Person) to represent the Indemnified Person and any others entitled to indemnification pursuant to Section 6 that the Indemnifying Party may designate in such proceeding and shall pay the fees and expenses of such proceeding and shall pay the fees and expenses of counsel related to such proceeding, as incurred. In any such proceeding, any Indemnified Person shall have the right to retain its own counsel, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such Indemnified Person unless (i) the Indemnifying Person and the Indemnified Person shall have mutually agreed to the contrary; (ii) the Indemnifying Person has failed within a reasonable time to retain counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Person; (iii) the Indemnified Person shall have reasonably concluded that there may be legal defenses available to it that are different from or in addition to those available to the Indemnifying Person; or (iv) the named parties in any such proceeding (including any impleaded parties) include both the Indemnifying Person and the Indemnified Person and representation of both parties by the same counsel would be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing interests between them. It is understood and agreed that the Indemnifying Person shall not, in connection with any proceeding or related proceeding in the same jurisdiction, be liable for the fees and expenses of more than one separate firm (in addition to any local counsel) for all Indemnified Persons, and that all such fees and expenses shall be reimbursed as they are incurred. Any such separate firm for any Initial Purchaser, its affiliates, directors and officers and any control persons of such Initial Purchaser shall be designated in writing by Merrill

Lynch, Pierce, Xxxxxx & Xxxxx Incorporated and any such separate firm for the Company, the Guarantors, their respective directors, their respective officers who signed the Registration Statement and any control persons of the Company shall be designated in writing by the Company. The Indemnifying Person shall not be liable for any settlement of any proceeding effected without its written consent, but if settled with such consent or if there be a final judgment for the plaintiff, the Indemnifying Person agrees to indemnify each Indemnified Person from and against any loss or liability by reason of such settlement or judgment. Notwithstanding the foregoing sentence, if at any time an Indemnified Person shall have requested that an Indemnifying Person reimburse the Indemnified Person for fees and expenses of counsel as contemplated by this paragraph, the Indemnifying Person shall be liable for any settlement of any proceeding effected without its written consent if (i) such settlement is entered into more than 30 days after receipt by the Indemnifying Person of such request and (ii) the Indemnifying Person shall not have reimbursed the Indemnified Person in accordance with such request prior to the date of such settlement. No Indemnifying Person shall, without the written consent of the Indemnified Person, effect any settlement of any pending or threatened proceeding in respect of which any Indemnified Person is or could have been a party and indemnification could have been sought hereunder by such Indemnified Person, unless such settlement (x) includes an unconditional release of such Indemnified Person, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to such Indemnified Person, from all liability on claims that are the subject matter of such proceeding and (y) does not include any statement as to or any admission of fault, culpability or a failure to act by or on behalf of any Indemnified Person.

(d) Contribution. If the indemnification provided for in paragraphs (a) and (b) above is unavailable to an Indemnified Person or insufficient in respect of any losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions or proceedings in respect thereof) referred to therein, then each Indemnifying Person under such paragraph, in lieu of indemnifying such Indemnified Person thereunder, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such Indemnified Person as a result of such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions or proceedings in respect thereof) (i) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the Company and the Guarantors on the one hand and the Initial Purchasers on the other from the offering of the Securities or (ii) if the allocation provided by clause (i) is not permitted by applicable law, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits referred to in clause (i) but also the relative fault of the Company and the Guarantors on the one hand and the Initial Purchasers on the other in connection with the statements or omissions that resulted in such losses, claims, damages or liabilities, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative benefits received by the Company on the one hand and the Initial Purchasers on the other shall be deemed to be in the same respective proportions as the net proceeds (before deducting expenses) received by the Company from the sale of the Securities and the total initial purchaser discounts and commissions received by the Initial Purchasers on the other in connection therewith, in each case as set forth in the table on the cover of the Offering Memorandum, bear to the aggregate offering price of the Securities. The relative fault of the Company and the Guarantors on the one hand and the Initial Purchasers on the other shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the Company or any Guarantor or by the Initial Purchasers and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission.

(e) Limitation on Liability. The Company, the Guarantors and the Initial Purchasers agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 6 were determined by pro rata allocation (even if the Initial Purchasers were treated as one entity for such purpose) or by any other method of allocation that does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to in paragraph (d) above. The amount paid or payable by an Indemnified Person as a result of the losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions or proceedings in respect thereof) referred to in paragraph (d) above shall be deemed to include, subject to the limitations set forth above, any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such Indemnified Person in connection with investigating or defending any such action or claim. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 6, in no event shall an Initial Purchaser be required to contribute any amount in excess of the amount by which the total initial purchaser discounts and commissions received by such Initial Purchaser with respect to the offering of the Securities exceeds the amount of any damages that such Initial Purchaser has otherwise been required to pay by reason of such untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. The Initial Purchasers’

obligations to contribute pursuant to this Section 6 are several in proportion to their respective purchase obligations hereunder and not joint.

(f) Non-Exclusive Remedies. The remedies provided for in this Section 6 are not exclusive and shall not limit any rights or remedies which may otherwise be available to any Indemnified Person at law or in equity.

7. Effectiveness of Agreement. This Agreement shall become effective upon the execution and delivery hereof by the parties hereto.

8. Termination. This Agreement may be terminated in the absolute discretion of the Representatives, by notice to the Company, if after the execution and delivery of this Agreement and prior to the Closing Date (i) trading generally shall have been suspended or materially limited on the New York Stock Exchange or the over-the-counter market; (ii) trading of any securities issued or guaranteed by the Company shall have been suspended on any exchange or in any over the counter market; (iii) a general moratorium on commercial banking activities shall have been declared by federal or New York State authorities; or (iv) there shall have occurred any outbreak or escalation of hostilities or any change in financial markets or any material disruption in securities settlement and clearance services or any calamity or crisis, either within or outside the United States, that, in the judgment of the Representatives, is material and adverse and makes it impracticable or inadvisable to proceed with the offering, sale or delivery of the Securities on the terms and in the manner contemplated by this Agreement and the Offering Memorandum.

9. Defaulting Initial Purchaser

(a) If, on the Closing Date, any Initial Purchaser defaults on its obligation to purchase the Securities that it has agreed to purchase hereunder, the non- defaulting Initial Purchasers may in their discretion arrange for the purchase of such Securities by other persons satisfactory to the Company on the terms contained in this Agreement. If, within 36 hours after any such default by any Initial Purchaser, the non-defaulting Initial Purchasers do not arrange for the purchase of such Securities, then the Company shall be entitled to a further period of 36 hours within which to procure other persons satisfactory to the non-defaulting Initial Purchasers to purchase such Securities on such terms. If other persons become obligated or agree to purchase the Securities of a defaulting Initial Purchaser, either the non defaulting Initial Purchasers or the Company may postpone the Closing Date for up to five full business days in order to effect any changes that in the opinion of counsel for the Company or counsel for the Initial Purchasers may be necessary in the Offering Memorandum or in any other document or arrangement, and the Company agrees to promptly prepare any amendment or supplement to the Offering Memorandum that effects any such changes. As used in this Agreement, the term “Initial Purchaser” includes, for all purposes of this Agreement unless the context otherwise requires, any person not listed in Schedule 1 hereto that, pursuant to this Section 9, purchases Securities that a defaulting Initial Purchaser agreed but failed to purchase.

(b) If, after giving effect to any arrangements for the purchase of the Securities of a defaulting Initial Purchaser or Initial Purchasers by the non-defaulting Initial Purchasers and the Company as provided in paragraph (a) above, the aggregate principal amount of such Securities that remains unpurchased does not exceed one-eleventh of the aggregate principal amount of all the Securities, then the Company shall have the right to require each non-defaulting Initial Purchaser to purchase the principal amount of Securities that such Initial Purchaser agreed to purchase hereunder plus such Initial Purchaser’s pro rata share (based on the principal amount of Securities that such Initial Purchaser agreed to purchase hereunder) of the Securities of such defaulting Initial Purchaser or Initial Purchasers for which such arrangements have not been made.

(c) If, after giving effect to any arrangements for the purchase of the Securities of a defaulting Initial Purchaser or Initial Purchasers by the non-defaulting Initial Purchasers and the Company as provided in paragraph (a) above, the aggregate principal amount of such Securities that remains unpurchased exceeds one-eleventh of the aggregate principal amount of all the Securities, or if the Company shall not exercise the right described in paragraph (b) above, then this Agreement shall terminate without liability on the part of the non-defaulting Initial Purchasers. Any termination of this Agreement pursuant to this Section 9 shall be without liability on the part of the Company, except that the Company will continue to be liable for the payment of

expenses as set forth in Section 10 hereof and except that the provisions of Section 6 hereof shall not terminate and shall remain in effect.

(d) Nothing contained herein shall relieve a defaulting Initial Purchaser of any liability it may have to the Company or any non-defaulting Initial Purchaser for damages caused by its default.

10. Payment of Expenses

(a) Whether or not the transactions contemplated by this Agreement are consummated or this Agreement is terminated, the Company and each of the Guarantors jointly and severally agree to pay or cause to be paid all costs and expenses incident to the performance of their respective obligations hereunder, including without limitation, (i) the costs incident to the authorization, issuance, sale, preparation and delivery of the Securities and any taxes payable in that connection; (ii) the costs incident to the preparation and printing of the Preliminary Offering Memorandum, the Pricing Disclosure Package, any Company Additional Written Communication and the Offering Memorandum (including all exhibits, amendments and supplements thereto) and the distribution thereof; (iii) the costs of reproducing and distributing each of the Transaction Documents; (iv) the fees and expenses of the Company’s and the Guarantors’ counsel and the Company’s independent accountants; (v) the fees and expenses incurred in connection with the registration or qualification and determination of eligibility for investment of the Securities under the laws of such jurisdictions as the Representatives may designate and the preparation, printing and distribution of a Blue Sky Memorandum (including the related fees and expenses of counsel for the Initial Purchasers subject to a maximum amount of $15,000); (vi) any fees charged by rating agencies for rating the Securities; (vii) the fees and expenses of the Trustee and any paying agent (including related fees and expenses of any counsel to such parties); (viii) all expenses and application fees incurred in connection with any filing with, and clearance of the offering by, FINRA; and (ix) all expenses incurred by the Company (but not the Initial Purchasers) in connection with any “road show” presentation to potential investors.

(b) If (i) this Agreement is terminated pursuant to Section 8, (ii) the Company for any reason fails to tender the Securities for delivery to the Initial Purchasers or (iii) the Initial Purchasers decline to purchase the Securities for any reason permitted under this Agreement, the Company agrees to reimburse the Initial Purchasers for all out-of-pocket costs and expenses (including the reasonable fees and expenses of their counsel) reasonably incurred by the Initial Purchasers in connection with this Agreement and the offering contemplated hereby.

11. Persons Entitled to Benefit of Agreement. This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the parties hereto and their respective successors and the officers and directors and any controlling persons referred to herein, and the affiliates of each Initial Purchaser referred to in Section 6 hereof. Nothing in this Agreement is intended or shall be construed to give any other person any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or in respect of this Agreement or any provision contained herein. No purchaser of Securities from any Initial Purchaser shall be deemed to be a successor merely by reason of such purchase.

12. Survival. The respective indemnities, rights of contribution, representations, warranties and agreements of the Company, the Guarantors and the Initial Purchasers contained in this Agreement or made by or on behalf of the Company, the Guarantors or the Initial Purchasers pursuant to this Agreement or any certificate delivered pursuant hereto shall survive the delivery of and payment for the Securities and shall remain in full force and effect, regardless of any termination of this Agreement or any investigation made by or on behalf of the Company or the Initial Purchasers.

13. Certain Defined Terms. For purposes of this Agreement, (a) except where otherwise expressly provided, the term “affiliate” has the meaning set forth in Rule 405 under the Securities Act; (b) the term “business day” means any day other than a day on which banks are permitted or required to be closed in New York City; and (c) the term “subsidiary” has the meaning set forth in Rule 405 under the Securities Act.

14. Miscellaneous

(a) Authority of the Representatives. Any action by the Initial Purchasers hereunder may be taken by the Representatives on behalf of the Initial Purchasers, and any such action taken by the Representatives shall be binding upon the Initial Purchasers.

Re:		Offering of $1,000,000,000 in aggregate principal amount of 6.375% Senior Notes due 2020 of Hanesbrands Inc.

Ladies and Gentlemen:

We are issuing this letter in our capacity as special counsel for Hanesbrands Inc., a Maryland corporation (the “Company”), and the Guarantors (as defined below) with respect to the matters described herein. This letter is being delivered in response to the requirement in Section 4(f) of the Purchase Agreement, dated November 4, 2009 (the “Purchase Agreement”), among the Company, the guarantors listed on Schedule B hereto (the “Guarantors”) and Xxxxxxx Lynch, Pierce, Xxxxxx & Xxxxx Incorporated, Barclays Capital Inc., HSBC Securities (USA) LLC and Xxxxxxx, Sachs & Co., as the representatives of the several Initial Purchasers named in Schedule A hereto (collectively, “you” or the “Initial Purchasers”), relating to the sale by the Company to the Initial Purchasers of $1,000,000,000 in aggregate principal amount of the Company’s 6.375% Senior Notes due 2020 (the “Notes”) to be issued under the Indenture, dated as of August 1, 2008 (the “Base Indenture”), between the Company and Branch Banking and Trust Company, as trustee (the “Trustee”), as supplemented by the Third Supplemental Indenture thereto dated as of the date hereof among the Company, the Guarantors and the Trustee (together

with the Base Indenture, the “Indenture”). The Notes will be guaranteed pursuant to the guarantees to be issued by the Guarantors on the date hereof pursuant to the terms of the Indenture (the “Guarantees” and, together with the Notes, the “Securities”).

In connection with the preparation of this letter, we have among other things read:

	(a)		the Preliminary Offering Memorandum, dated November 4, 2010, covering the offer and sale of the Notes (the “Offering Memorandum”), as supplemented by the pricing term sheet dated November 4, 2010, containing, among other things, certain pricing and other terms of the Notes (collectively, the “Time of Sale Information”);

	(b)		the documents specifically incorporated by reference or deemed to be incorporated by reference in the Time of Sale Information and the Offering Memorandum (together, the “Incorporated Documents”);

	(c)		an executed copy of the Purchase Agreement;

	(d)		an executed copy of the Indenture;

	(e)		an executed copy of the Registration Rights Agreement;

	(f)		the executed Notes and the executed Guarantees;

	(g)		certified copies of the certificates of incorporation, certificates of formation, by-laws, limited liability company agreements or operating agreements of the entities identified in Schedule B, as applicable (the “Organizing Documents”);

	(h)		a certified copy of resolutions adopted by the members and the management committee, manager, management board or boards of directors, as the case may be, of the Company and each of the Guarantors relating to the offering, sale and issuance of the Securities;

	(i)		certificates of good standing, with respect to the Company and each of the Guarantors, as supplemented by electronic bringdowns thereof dated the date hereof;

	(j)		the certificate of Xxxx X. Xxxxxxx, Secretary of the Company, dated the date hereof, including all exhibits thereto;

	(k)		the certificate of Xxxxxxx Xxxx, Treasurer of the Company, dated the date hereof, furnished to the Initial Purchasers pursuant to Section 4(d) of the Purchase Agreement;

	(l)		copies of all certificates and other documents delivered in connection with the sale of the Securities on the date hereof and the consummation of the other transactions contemplated by the Purchase Agreement;

	(m)		copies of the documents listed on Schedule C hereto; and

	(n)		such other records, certificates and documents as we have deemed necessary or appropriate in order to deliver the advice set forth herein.

The Purchase Agreement, the Indenture, the Registration Rights Agreement and the Securities, are collectively referred to herein as the “Transaction Documents.”

Subject to the assumptions, qualifications, exclusions and other limitations which are identified in this letter, we advise you that:

	1.		Each of the Guarantors is a corporation or limited liability company existing and in good standing under the relevant law of its state of incorporation or formation, as the case may be, and as set forth on Schedule B. The Company is in good standing under the jurisdictions set forth on Schedule D.

	2.		Each of the Guarantors has full corporate power or limited liability company power, as applicable, and authority to own, lease and operate its properties and conduct its business as described in the Time of Sale Information and the Offering Memorandum.

	3.		The Purchase Agreement has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by each of the Guarantors and duly executed and delivered by the Company.

	4.		The Indenture has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by each of the Guarantors and duly executed and delivered by the Company and, assuming due authorization by the Company, and due authorization, execution and delivery by the Trustee, the Indenture is a valid and binding obligation of the Company and each of the Guarantors and is enforceable against the Company and each of the Guarantors in accordance with its terms.

	5.		The Notes have been duly executed and delivered by the Company and, when paid for by the Initial Purchasers in accordance with the Purchase Agreement (assuming the due authorization of the Indenture by the Trustee and the Company and due authentication and delivery of the Notes by the Trustee in accordance with the Indenture), the Notes will constitute valid and binding obligations of the Company, and will be enforceable against the Company in accordance with their terms.

	6.		The Guarantees have been duly authorized by each of the Guarantors and, when the Notes are issued and delivered by the Company against payment therefor in accordance with the terms of the Purchase Agreement and the Indenture, will constitute the legal, valid and binding obligations of each of the Guarantors enforceable against each of the Guarantors in accordance with their terms.

	7.		The Registration Rights Agreement has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by each of the Guarantors and duly executed and delivered by the

			Company. Assuming the due authorization, execution and delivery by the Initial Purchasers, the Registration Rights Agreement is a valid and binding obligation of the Company and each of the Guarantors in accordance with its terms.

	8.		The Board of Directors, Board of Managers or Sole Member, as applicable, of the Company and each of the Guarantors has adopted by requisite vote the resolutions necessary to authorize the execution, delivery and performance of, in the case of the Company, the Exchange Securities and, in the case of the Guarantors, the Exchange Guarantees. No approval by the equityholders or unit holders, as applicable, the Company or the Guarantors is required.

	9.		The statements in the Time of Sale Information and the Offering Memorandum under the headings “Description of Notes” insofar as such statements purport to summarize terms of the Securities, the Indenture or other documents referred to therein, are correct in all material respects.

	10.		The execution and delivery of the Transaction Documents by the Company and the Guarantors and the performance by the Company and the Guarantors of their respective obligations thereunder do not and will not result in (i) any violation of any Specified Law, constitute a violation, or result in a breach of any statute or governmental rule or regulation which, in our experience, is normally applicable both to general business corporations that are not engaged in regulated business activities and to transactions of the type contemplated by the Offering Memorandum (but without our having made any special investigation as to other laws and provided that we express no opinion in this paragraph with respect to (a) any laws, rules or regulations to which the Company or the Guarantors may be subject as a result of the Initial Purchasers’ legal or regulatory status or the involvement of the Initial Purchasers in such transactions, (b) any laws, rules or regulations relating to misrepresentations or fraud or (c) the Securities Act or the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as amended (the “Trust Indenture Act”)) or (ii) default, under any existing obligation of the Company or its Subsidiaries under any provision of any Specified Contract (provided that we express no opinion as to compliance with any financial test or cross-default provision in any such Specified Contract), or (iii) conflict or violate any of the terms or provisions of the Certificate of Incorporation or By-Laws of the Company or any of the Guarantors.

	11.		No consent, waiver, approval, authorization or order of any court or governmental authority is required for the issuance and sale by the Company of the Notes to the Initial Purchasers and the Securities Guarantees or the consummation by the Company or the Guarantors of the other transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents, except such as may be required under the Securities Act, the Trust Indenture Act, the security or Blue Sky laws of the various states or the rules and regulations of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, Inc., as to which we express no opinion in this paragraph.

	12.		No registration under the Securities Act is required in connection with the sale of the Notes to the Initial Purchasers in the manner contemplated by the Purchase Agreement and the Offering Memorandum or in connection with the initial resale of the Notes by the Initial Purchasers in the manner contemplated by the Purchase Agreement and the Offering Memorandum, and the Indenture is not required to be qualified under the Trust Indenture Act, in each case assuming (i) that the purchasers who buy such Notes in the initial resale there of are qualified institutional buyers as defined in Rule 144A promulgated under the Securities Act, or persons other than U.S. persons in connection with the offers and sales made in reliance upon Regulation S under the Securities Act, (ii) the accuracy and completeness of the representations of the Company and the Initial Purchasers set forth in Section 2 of the Purchase Agreement regarding, among other things, the absence of a general solicitation in connection with the sale of such Notes to the Initial Purchasers and the initial resales thereof, and (iii) the compliance with the procedures set forth in the Purchase Agreement by the Initial Purchasers, the Company and the Guarantors.

	13.		None of the Company or any of the Guarantors is, and after giving effect to the application of proceeds as set forth under “Use of proceeds” in the Time of Sale Information and the Offering Memorandum, will be an “investment company” as such term is defined in the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended.

Except as described above, we have not undertaken any investigation to determine the facts upon which the advice in this letter is based.

Each opinion (an “enforceability opinion”) in this letter that any particular contract is a valid and binding obligation or is enforceable in accordance with its terms is subject to: (i) the effect of bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent conveyance and other similar laws and judicially developed doctrines in this area such as substantive consolidation and equitable subordination; (ii) the effect of general principles of equity; and (iii) other commonly recognized statutory and judicial constraints on enforceability, including statutes of limitations. “General principles of equity” include but are not limited to: principles limiting the availability of specific performance and injunctive relief; principles which limit the availability of a remedy under certain circumstances where another remedy has been elected; principles requiring reasonableness, good faith and fair dealing in the performance and enforcement of an agreement by the party seeking enforcement; principles which may permit a party to cure a material failure to perform its obligations; and principles affording equitable defenses such as waiver, laches and estoppel. It is possible that terms in a particular contract covered by our enforceability opinion may not prove enforceable for reasons other than those explicitly cited in this letter should an actual enforcement action be brought, but (subject to all the exceptions, qualifications, exclusions and other limitations contained in this letter) such unenforceability would not in our view prevent the party entitled to enforce that contract from realizing the principal benefits purported to be provided to that party by the terms in that contract which are covered by our enforceability opinion. To the extent any opinion relates to the enforceability of the choice of New York law and choice of New York forum provisions of the Transaction Documents, our opinion is rendered in reliance upon N.Y. Gen. Oblig. Law §§ 5-1401, 5-1402 (XxXxxxxx 2001) and N.Y.

C.P.L.R. 327(b) (XxXxxxxx 2001) and is subject to the qualification that such enforceability may be limited by public policy considerations.

We have assumed for purposes of this letter: each document we have reviewed for purposes of this letter is accurate and complete, each such document that is an original is authentic, each such document that is a copy conforms to an authentic original, and all signatures on each such document are genuine; that each such document was duly authorized, executed and delivered (other than with respect to the authorization by the Guarantors and execution and delivery by the Company and the Guarantors) and each constitutes a valid and binding obligation of each party to that document (other than the Company and the Guarantors) and that each such party (other than the Company and the Guarantors) has satisfied all legal requirements that are applicable to such party to the extent necessary to entitle such party to enforce such agreement; and that you have acted in good faith and without notice of any fact which has caused you to reach any conclusion contrary to any of the advice provided in this letter.

Whenever this letter provides advice about (or based upon) our knowledge of any particular information or about any information which has or has not come to our attention such advice is based entirely on the actual knowledge obtained in acting as legal counsel to the Company at the time this letter is delivered on the date it bears by the following lawyers currently with Xxxxxxxx & Xxxxx LLP (after consultation with such attorneys of the firm as we deemed appropriate) who have represented the Company in connection with (i) the offering contemplated by the Time of Sale Information and the Offering Memorandum and (ii) any prior offerings of securities of the Company: Xxxxxx X. Xxxxx, P.C., Xxxxxxxx X. Xxxx, Xxxxxxx Xxx, and Xxxx X. Xxxxxxxxx.

In preparing this letter we have relied without independent verification upon: (i) information contained in certificates obtained from governmental authorities; (ii) factual information represented to be true in the Purchase Agreement and other documents specifically identified at the beginning of this letter as having been read by us; (iii) factual information provided to us by the Company or its representatives; and (iv) factual information we have obtained from such other sources as we have deemed appropriate. We have also, without conducting any research or investigation with respect thereto, relied upon the opinions of: (i)Xxxxxxx LLP for certain matters of Maryland law, (ii) Xxxxx Lovells US LLP for certain matters of Colorado law and (iii) Xxxxxxxx Xxxxxxx LLP for certain matters of Kansas law. We have assumed that there has been no relevant change or development between the dates as of which the information cited in the preceding sentence was given and the date of this letter and that the information upon which we have relied is accurate and does not omit disclosures necessary to prevent such information from being misleading. For purposes of numbered paragraph 1, we have relied exclusively upon certificates issued by governmental authorities in the relevant jurisdiction and such opinion is not intended to provide any conclusion or assurance beyond that conveyed by those certificates. We have made other assumptions which we have deemed appropriate for this letter.

Our advice on every legal issue addressed in this letter is based exclusively on the internal law of the State of New York, the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware, the Limited Liability Company Act of the State of Delaware, or the federal law of the United

States to the extent specifically referred to herein (the “Specified Laws”), and represents our view as to how that issue would be resolved were it to be considered by the highest court in the jurisdiction which enacted such law. In our view, New York state courts would apply New York state law to resolve state law issues arising under the Transaction Documents. We express no view as to what law might be applied by any other courts to resolve any issue addressed by our letter and we express no view as to whether any relevant difference exists between the laws upon which our advice is based and any other laws which may actually be applied to resolve issues which may arise under the Transaction Documents. The manner in which any particular issue would be treated in any actual court case would depend in part on facts and circumstances particular to the case and would also depend on how the court involved chose to exercise the wide discretionary authority generally available to it. This letter is not intended to guarantee the outcome of any legal dispute which may arise in the future.

None of the advice contained in this letter considers or covers: (i) any state securities (or “blue sky”) laws or regulations, (ii) any financial statements or supporting schedules (or any notes to any such statements or schedules) or other financial information set forth or incorporated by reference in (or omitted from) the Preliminary Offering Memorandum and the Offering Memorandum or (iii) any rules and regulations of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, Inc. This letter does not cover any other laws, statutes, governmental rules or regulations or decisions which in our experience are not usually considered for or covered by opinions like those contained in this letter or are not generally applicable to transactions of the kind covered by the Purchase Agreement.

This letter speaks as of the time of its delivery on the date it bears. We do not assume any obligation to provide you with any subsequent advice.

This letter is being furnished to you solely in your capacity as initial purchasers in connection with the sale of the Securities to you pursuant to and as contemplated by the Purchase Agreement and may only be relied upon by you in your capacity as such. Without our written consent: (i) no person (including, without limitation, subsequent purchasers of the Securities) other than you may rely on this letter for any purpose; (ii) this letter may not be cited or quoted in any financial statements, prospectus, private placement memorandum or other similar document; (iii) this letter may not be cited or quoted in any other document or communication which might encourage reliance upon this letter by any person or for any purpose excluded by the restrictions in this paragraph; and (iv) copies of this letter may not be furnished to anyone for purposes of encouraging such reliance.

Sincerely,

Ladies and Gentlemen:

We are acting as special Colorado counsel to Hanesbrands Direct, LLC, a Colorado limited liability company (the “Colorado Guarantor”), in connection with the issuance and sale pursuant to Indenture, dated as of August 1, 2008 (the “Base Indenture”), as supplemented by the Supplemental Indenture, dated as of November 9, 2010 (the “Supplemental Indenture,” and together with the Base Indenture, the “Indenture”) among Hanesbrands Inc., a Maryland corporation (the “Issuer”), the Colorado Guarantor and the other guarantors named therein, and Branch Banking and Trust Company, as trustee (the “Trustee”), of $1,000,000,000.00 in aggregate principal amount of the Issuer’s 6.375% Senior Notes due 2020 (the “Notes”), guaranteed as to payment of principal, premium, if any, and interest on the Notes on an unsecured senior basis by the Colorado Guarantor (the “Colorado Guarantee”) and certain other guarantors (such guarantees together with the Colorado Guarantee, the “Guarantees”), and the sale of the Notes pursuant to a Purchase Agreement, dated as of November 4, 2010 (the “Agreement”) among the Issuer, you (collectively with the other initial purchasers named therein, the “Initial Purchasers”), the Colorado Guarantor and the other guarantors named therein and the Offering Memorandum, dated November 4, 2010 (the “Offering Memorandum”). This opinion letter is furnished to you pursuant to the requirements set forth in Section 4(f) of the Agreement in connection with the closing thereunder on the date hereof. Capitalized terms used herein that are defined in the Agreement shall have the meanings set forth in the Agreement, unless otherwise defined herein.

For purposes of the opinions, which are set forth in paragraphs (a) through (f) below (the “Opinions”), and the other statements made in this letter, we have examined copies of the documents listed on Schedule 1 attached hereto (the “Documents”). We believe the Documents provide an appropriate basis on which to render the opinions hereinafter expressed. The Agreement, the Indenture and the Registration Rights Agreement among the Issuer, the Colorado Guarantor, the other guarantors named therein and the Initial Purchasers dated as of November 9, 2010 (the “Registration Rights Agreement”) are hereafter referred to collectively as the “Transaction Documents.”

In our examination of the Transaction Documents and the other Documents, we have assumed the genuineness of all signatures, the legal capacity of all natural persons, the accuracy and completeness of all of the Documents, the authenticity of all originals of the Documents and the conformity to authentic originals of all of the Documents submitted to us as copies (including telecopies). As to all matters of fact relevant to the Opinions and other statements made herein, we have relied on the representations and statements of fact made in the Documents, we have not independently established the facts so relied on, and we have not made any investigation or inquiry other than our examination of the Documents. The Opinions are given, and other statements are made, in the context of the foregoing.

As used in this opinion letter, the phrase “to our knowledge” means the actual knowledge (that is, the conscious awareness of facts or other information) of lawyers currently in the firm who have given substantive legal attention to representation of the Colorado Guarantor.

For purposes of this opinion letter, we have assumed that (i) each party to the Transaction Documents (other than the Colorado Guarantor) has all requisite power and authority under all applicable laws, regulations and governing documents to execute, deliver and perform its obligations under the Transaction Documents and each of such other parties has complied with all legal requirements pertaining to its status as such status relates to its rights to enforce the Transaction Documents against the Colorado Guarantor, (ii) each of such other parties has duly authorized, executed and delivered the Transaction Documents to which it is a party, (iii) each of such other parties is validly existing and in good standing in all necessary jurisdictions, (iv) each of the Transaction Documents constitutes a valid and legally binding obligation of such other parties thereto, enforceable against each of such other parties in accordance with its terms, (v) there has been no mutual mistake of fact or misunderstanding or fraud, duress or undue influence, in connection with the negotiation, execution or delivery of the Transaction Documents and the conduct of all parties to the each of the Transaction Documents has complied with any requirements of good faith, fair dealing and conscionability, and (vi) there are and have been no agreements or understandings among the parties, written or oral, and there is and has been no usage of trade or course of prior dealing among the parties that would, in either case, define, supplement or qualify the terms of any of the Transaction Documents. We have also assumed the validity and constitutionality of each relevant statute, rule, regulation and agency action covered by this opinion letter.

For purposes of the opinions set forth in paragraphs (e) and (f) below, we have made the further assumptions: (i) all orders, judgments, decrees, agreements and contracts would be enforced as written; (ii) that the Issuer and Colorado Guarantor will not in the future take any

Xxxxxxx Lynch, Pierce, Xxxxxx & Xxxxx Incorporated et. al
November 9, 2010
Page 3

discretionary action (including a decision not to act) permitted under the Transaction Documents that would result in a violation of law or constitute a breach or default under any order, judgment, decree, agreement or contract; (iii) that the Issuer and the Colorado Guarantor will obtain all permits, consents and governmental approvals required in the future, and take all actions required, which are relevant to subsequent consummation of the transactions contemplated under the Transaction Documents or performance of the Transaction Documents; and (iv) that all parties to the Transaction Documents will act in accordance with, and will refrain from taking any action that is forbidden by, the terms and conditions of the Transaction Documents.

The Opinions are based as to matters of law solely on applicable provisions of Colorado law, as currently in effect.

Based upon, subject to and limited by the limitations and qualifications set forth in this opinion letter, we are of the opinion that:

(a) The Colorado Guarantor is a limited liability company duly formed, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the State of Colorado.

(b) The Colorado Guarantor has the limited liability company power (i) to execute, deliver and perform it obligations under the Transaction Documents and (ii) to own, lease and operate its current properties and to conduct its business in as described in the Offering Memorandum.

(d) The Colorado Guarantee has been duly authorized and executed by the Colorado Guarantor.

(e) The execution, delivery and performance on the date hereof by the Colorado Guarantor of the Transaction Documents and the issuance and sale of the Colorado Guarantee do not violate (i) any Colorado statute or any rule or regulation that has been issued pursuant to any Colorado statute, (ii) the articles of organization or the limited liability company agreement of the Colorado Guarantor, as applicable, or (iii) to our knowledge, any court or administrative order, judgment or decree that names the Colorado Guarantor and is specifically directed to it or any of its property.

(f) No approval or consent of, or registration or filing with any Colorado governmental agency is required to be obtained or made by the Colorado Guarantor under the Colorado Limited Liability Company Act, as amended, in connection with the execution, delivery and performance on the date hereof by the Colorado Guarantor of the Transaction Documents.

In addition to the assumptions, qualifications, exceptions and limitations elsewhere set forth in this opinion letter, our opinions expressed above are also subject to the effect of:

Xxxxxxx Lynch, Pierce, Xxxxxx & Xxxxx Incorporated et. al
November 9, 2010
Page 4

(i) bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, receivership, moratorium and other laws affecting creditors’ rights (including, without limitation, the effect of statutory and other law regarding fraudulent conveyances, fraudulent transfers and preferential transfers); and (ii) the exercise of judicial discretion and the application of principles of equity, good faith, fair dealing, reasonableness, conscionability and materiality (regardless of whether the applicable agreements are considered in a proceeding in equity or at law).

Nothing herein shall be construed to cause us to be considered “experts” within the meaning of Section 11 of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.

We express no opinion herein as to any other laws and regulations not specifically identified above (and in particular, we express no opinion as to any effect that such other laws and regulations may have on the Opinions). The opinions set forth in paragraphs (e) and (f) are based upon a review of only those laws and regulations that, in our experience, are generally recognized as applicable to transactions of the type contemplated in the Transaction Documents. We express no opinion herein as to federal or state securities, antitrust, unfair competition, banking, or tax laws or regulations or laws or regulations of any political subdivision below the state level.

We assume no obligation to advise you of any changes in the foregoing subsequent to the delivery of this opinion letter. This opinion letter has been prepared solely for your use in connection with the closing under the Agreement on the date hereof, and should not be quoted in whole or in part or otherwise be referred to, and should not be filed with or furnished to any governmental agency or other person or entity, without the prior written consent of this firm.

Very truly yours,

8. Such other documents and matters as we have deemed necessary or appropriate to express the opinion set forth below, subject to the assumptions, limitations and qualifications stated herein.

In expressing the opinion set forth below, we have assumed the following:

1. Each individual executing any of the Documents, whether on behalf of such individual or another person, is legally competent to do so.

2. Each individual executing any of the Documents on behalf of a party (other than the Company) is duly authorized to do so.

3. Each of the parties (other than the Company) executing any of the Documents has duly and validly executed and delivered each of the Documents to which such party is a signatory, and such party’s obligations set forth therein are legal, valid and binding and are enforceable in accordance with all stated terms.

4. All Documents submitted to us as originals are authentic. The form and content of all Documents submitted to us as unexecuted drafts do not differ in any respect relevant to this opinion from the form and content of such Documents as executed and delivered. All Documents submitted to us as certified or photostatic copies conform to the original documents. All signatures on all Documents are genuine. All public records reviewed or relied upon by us or on our behalf are true and complete. All representations, warranties, statements and information contained in the Documents are true and complete. There has been no oral or written modification of or amendment to any of the Documents, and there has been no waiver of any provision of any of the Documents, by action or omission of the parties or otherwise.

5. The Exchange Securities, if and when issued, will have substantially identical terms as the Securities and be issued in exchange therefor as contemplated by the Indenture, the Agreement and the Offering Memorandum.

The phrase “known to us” is limited to the actual knowledge, without independent inquiry, of the lawyers at our firm who have performed legal services on behalf of the Company.

Based upon the foregoing, and subject to the assumptions, limitations and qualifications stated herein, it is our opinion that:

1. The Company is a corporation duly incorporated and validly existing under the laws of the State of Maryland and is in good standing with the SDAT.

Xxxxxxx Lynch, Pierce, Xxxxxx & Xxxxx Incorporated, et al.
November 9, 2010
Page 4

2. The Company has the corporate power to own, lease and operate its properties and to conduct its business as described in the Offering Memorandum under the caption “Summary” and to enter into and perform its obligations under the Note Documents, including the issuance of the Securities and the Exchange Securities.

3. The execution, delivery and performance of its obligations under the Note Documents have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate action of the Company. The Securities have been duly authorized by the Company for issuance and sale pursuant to the Agreement and the Indenture. The Exchange Securities have been duly authorized for issuance by the Company. The Note Documents have been duly executed and delivered by the Company.

4. The execution, delivery and performance by the Company of its obligations under the Note Documents and the consummation by the Company of the transactions contemplated thereby, including the sale and issuance of the Securities and the Exchange Securities by the Company, do not and will not conflict with the Charter or Bylaws or with any judgment, ruling, decree or order known to us, or any statute, rule or regulation of any court or other government agency or body of the State of Maryland applicable to the Company. We call your attention to the fact that, in connection with the delivery of this opinion, we have not ordered or reviewed judgment, lien or any other searches of public or private records of the Company or its properties.

The foregoing opinion is limited to the substantive laws of the State of Maryland and we do not express any opinion herein concerning any other law. We express no opinion as to the applicability or effect of federal or state securities laws, including the securities laws of the State of Maryland, or as to federal or state laws regarding fraudulent transfers. We note that each of the Note Documents provides that it shall be governed by the laws of the State of New York. To the extent that any matter as to which our opinion is expressed herein would be governed by the laws of any jurisdiction other than the State of Maryland, we do not express any opinion on such matter. Our opinion expressed in paragraph 4 above is based upon our consideration of only those judgments, rulings, decrees, orders, statutes, rules and regulations of any court or other government agency or body of the State of Maryland, if any, which, in our experience, are normally applicable to transactions of the type discussed in such paragraph. The opinion expressed herein is subject to the effect of judicial decisions which may permit the introduction of parol evidence to modify the terms or the interpretation of agreements.

The opinion expressed herein is limited to the matters specifically set forth herein and no other opinion shall be inferred beyond the matters expressly stated. We assume no obligation to supplement this opinion if any applicable law changes after the date hereof or if we become aware of any fact that might change the opinion expressed herein after the date hereof.

Accordingly, it may not be relied upon by, quoted in any manner to, or delivered to any other person or entity (except Xxxxxxxx & Xxxxx LLP, counsel to the Company, and Xxxxxx & Xxxxxxx LLP, counsel to the Initial Purchasers, who may rely on this opinion as if it were addressed to them for the purpose of delivering their opinions of even date herewith pursuant to the Note Documents) without, in each instance, our prior written consent.

Very truly yours,

Annex A-4

Form of Certificate of the Company’s General Counsel

I, Xxxx X. Xxxxxxx, the duly appointed Executive Vice President, General Counsel, and Corporate Secretary of Hanesbrands Inc., a Maryland corporation (the “Company”), pursuant to Section 4(f) of the Purchase Agreement dated November 4, 2010 (the “Purchase Agreement”) among the Company, the guarantors named therein and Xxxxxxx Lynch, Pierce, Xxxxxx & Xxxxx Incorporated, Barclays Capital Inc., HSBC Securities (USA) Inc., X.X. Xxxxxx Securities LLC and Xxxxxxx, Xxxxx & Co. as representatives (the “Representatives”) of the several Initial Purchasers set forth on Schedule 1 thereto (the “Initial Purchasers”), hereby certify, solely in my capacity as an officer of the Company (and not in my individual capacity), subject to the limitations set forth herein, that:

Except as described in the Pricing Disclosure Package and the Final Offering Memorandum, I have no knowledge of any legal, governmental or regulatory actions, suits or proceedings pending to which the Company or any of its subsidiaries is a party or to which any property of the Company or any of its subsidiaries is subject which could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect or which could reasonably be expected to materially and adversely affect the consummation of the transactions contemplated under the Purchase Agreement; and to my knowledge, no such actions, suits or proceedings are threatened by any governmental or regulatory authority or are threatened by others.

For purposes of this certificate, my “knowledge” is based entirely on my conscious awareness as of the date hereof after consultation with those attorneys in my legal department and outside counsel whom I have deemed appropriate. I do not assume any obligation to update this certificate by reason of any fact about which I did not have knowledge as of the date hereof, or for any other reason. I have relied without independent verification upon factual information provided to me by the Company and my staff. I have assumed that there has been no relevant change between the dates as of which the information cited in the preceding sentence was given and the date of hereof. This certificate is furnished to the Initial Purchasers pursuant to Section 4(f) of the Purchase Agreement. Without my prior consent, this certificate may not be relied upon or furnished to any other person. All capitalized terms which are defined in the Purchase Agreement and used but not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings given in the Purchase Agreement.
