Ladies and Gentlemen: I have acted as counsel to Lessee with respect to the Lease Purchase Agreement described above (the "Lease") and various related matters, and in this capacity I have reviewed a duplicate original of the Lease and various other documents. Based upon the examination of these and such other documents as we deem relevant, it is our opinion that: 1. The Lessee is authorized and has power under State law to purchase, rent or otherwise provide for personal property and has power under state law to enter into the Lease and to carry out the obligations thereunder and the transactions contemplated thereby. 2. The Lease has been duly authorized, approved, executed and delivered by and on behalf of Lessee, and the Lease is a valid and binding contract of Lessee enforceable in accordance with its terms, except to the extent such enforceability is limited by State and Federal laws affecting remedies and by bankruptcy, reorganization or other laws of general application relating to or affecting the enforcement of creditors' rights. 3. The authorization, approval and execution of the Lease and all other proceedings of Lessee relating to the transactions contemplated thereby have been performed in accordance with all applicable open meeting laws, public bidding laws and all other applicable laws, rules and regulations of the State. 4. The execution of the Lease and the appropriation of moneys to pay the Lease-Purchase Payments coming due thereunder, does not result in the violation of any constitutional, statutory or other limitation relating to the manner, form or amount of indebtedness which may be incurred by Lessee. 5. There is no litigation, action, suit or proceeding threatened or pending before any court, administrative agency, arbitrator or governmental body, that challenges the organization or existence of Lessee; the authority of its officers; the proper authorization, approval and execution of the Lease and the other documents contemplated thereby; the appropriation of moneys to make Lease-Purchase Payments under the Lease for Lessee's current Fiscal Year; or the ability of Lessee otherwise to perform its obligations under the Lease and the transactions contemplated thereby. 6. The Lease is not a general obligation debt of Lessee.
