I am Senior Vice President and General Counsel to Universal Health Services, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and the subsidiaries of the Company listed on Schedules I and II hereto (the “Guarantors”) and I am delivering this opinion in connection with the Company’s proposed issuance of $600,000,000 aggregate principal amount of 5.500% Senior Secured Notes due 2031 and $500,000,000 million aggregate principal amount of 6.000% Senior Secured Notes due 2036 (collectively, the “Notes”), and the issuance of the related guarantees of the Notes by the Guarantors (the “Guarantees”), as contemplated by the Company’s and the Guarantors’ registration pursuant to a shelf registration statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-282135) (the “ Original Registration Statement”), as amended by Post-Effective Amendment No. 1 thereto (“Post Effective Amendment No. 1”) (such Original Registration Statement, as amended by Post-Effective Amendment No. 1 and as may be amended from time to time, the “Registration Statement”) filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). The Original Registration Statement and Post Effective Amendment No. 1 have been filed with the Commission and each became effective upon their respective filing. The Company’s prospectus dated September 16, 2024 was filed with the Commission as part of the Registration Statement (the “Base Prospectus”) and the Company’s prospectus supplement dated August 11, 2026 relating to the Notes and the Guarantees has been filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) under the Securities Act (the “Prospectus Supplement”).
The Company and Guarantors entered into an Underwriting Agreement (the “Underwriting Agreement”), dated August 11, 2026, with J.P. Morgan Securities LLC, BofA Securities, Inc., Truist Securities, Inc., US Bancorp Investments, Inc. and Wells Fargo Securities, LLC, as representatives of the underwriters named therein (the “Underwriters”), relating to the issuance and sale by the Company to the Underwriters of the Notes, which shall be issued pursuant to an Indenture dated as of September 26, 2024 (the “Base Indenture”) and a Third Supplemental Indenture dated as of August 20, 2026 (the “Supplemental Indenture” and, together with the Base Indenture, the “Indenture”) among the Company, U.S. Bank Trust Company, National Association, as trustee, and JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as collateral agent.
In connection with this opinion, I have reviewed and examined, among other documents, the following:
| (a) | the Registration Statement, |
| (b) | the Base Prospectus and the Prospectus Supplement, |
| (c) | the Underwriting Agreement, |
| (d) | the Base Indenture and the Supplemental Indenture, |
| (e) | the Notes in global form as executed by the Company and authenticated by the Trustee, and |
| (f) | the form of Officers’ Certificates to be delivered pursuant to Section 13.03 of the Base Indenture. |

In addition, in rendering the opinions contained herein, I have relied upon my examination or the examination by members of the Company’s legal staff (in the ordinary course of business) of the original or copies certified or otherwise identified to our satisfaction of the charter, bylaws or other governing documents of Subsidiary Guarantors named on Schedule I hereto (the “Schedule I Guarantors”), resolutions and written consents of their respective boards of directors, general partners, managers and managing members, as the case may be, statements and certificates from officers of the Schedule I Guarantors and, to the extent obtained, from various state authorities, status reports provided by third party service providers, and such other documents and records relating to the Schedule I Guarantors as I have deemed appropriate. I, or a member of my staff, have also examined the originals, or duplicates or certified or conformed copies, of such corporate and other records, agreements, documents and other instruments of the Schedule I Guarantors and have made such other investigations as I have deemed relevant and necessary in connection with the opinions hereinafter set forth. As to questions of fact material to this opinion, I have relied upon certificates or comparable documents or statements of public officials and of officers and representatives of the Company and the Schedule I Guarantors.
Based upon the foregoing, and subject to the qualifications, assumptions and limitations stated herein, I am of the opinion that, (a) each of the Schedule I Guarantors is validly existing and in good standing as a corporation, limited liability company or limited partnership, as applicable, under the law of its jurisdiction of organization and will have full corporate, limited liability company or limited partnership power and authority, as the case may be, to issue the Guarantees and (b) the Guarantees, the Underwriting Agreement, the Base Indenture and the Supplemental Indenture have been duly authorized, executed and delivered by each of the Schedule I Guarantors.
This opinion letter is given as of the date hereof, and I assume no obligation to update or supplement this opinion letter to reflect any facts or circumstances that may hereafter come to my attention or any change in laws that may hereafter occur.
I hereby consent to the filing of this opinion as an exhibit to the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K to be filed with the Commission on the date hereof and to the reference to the undersigned under the caption “Legal Matters” in the Base Prospectus and the Prospectus Supplement.
