opinions expressed herein with respect to the due organization, existence and good standing of the Subject Entities are based solely upon certificates issued by the relevant authorities in the State of organization of the Subject Entities, and are limited to the meaning ascribed to such certificates in such State and limited to the date thereof.

We express no opinion as to the applicability of, compliance with or effect of, the law of any jurisdiction other than the substantive laws (excluding its applicable choice of law rules) of the State of Arkansas.

We have no obligation to update or supplement the opinions herein to reflect any changes in law that may hereafter occur or become effective. We also have assumed that the constitutionality or validity of a relevant statute, rule, regulation or agency action is not in issue unless a reported decision in Arkansas has established its unconstitutionality or invalidity.

  2. Each of the Subject Entities has the corporate or limited liability company (as applicable) power to enter into and perform its obligations under the Indenture.

 

  3. The execution, delivery and performance of the Indenture have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate or limited liability company (as applicable) action on the part of the Subject Entities, and the Subject Entities have duly executed and delivered the Indenture.

 

  4. The Guarantee by the Subject Entities with respect to the Securities has been duly authorized by the Subject Entities.

The opinions set forth herein are limited to, and no opinion is implied or may be inferred beyond, the matters expressly stated herein.
