I am the Senior Vice President and General Counsel of FedEx Office and have acted as counsel to FedEx Office in connection with the issuance and delivery by FedEx Office of its Guarantee of the Notes (the “FedEx Office Guarantee”).

 

In connection with the opinions expressed below, I have examined, or caused to be examined by attorneys under my supervision, originals or copies, certified or otherwise identified to my satisfaction, of the Registration Statement, the Prospectus Supplement, the Indenture, the FedEx Office Guarantee, the Underwriting Agreement, FedEx Office’s certificate of formation and bylaws, and such agreements, documents, certificates and statements of government officials and other papers as I have deemed necessary or advisable as a basis for such opinions.  In such examination, I have assumed the legal capacity of all natural persons, the genuineness of all signatures, the authenticity of all documents submitted to us as originals and the conformity with the originals of all documents submitted to us as certified, conformed, photostatic, electronic or facsimile copies and the authenticity of the originals of such documents.  In making our examination of executed documents and documents to be executed, I have assumed (i) that the parties thereto (other than FedEx Office) had or will have the power, corporate or otherwise, and authority to enter into and perform all obligations thereunder, (ii) the due delivery by such parties of such documents and (iii) that such documents constitute or will constitute valid and binding obligations of such parties.  As to any facts material to the opinions expressed herein, which I have not independently established or verified, I have relied upon statements and representations of officers and representatives of FedEx Office.

 

Based upon the foregoing, it is my opinion that:

 

1.                                      FedEx Office is a corporation validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the State of Texas.

 

2.                                      FedEx Office has the corporate power to (a) enter into and perform its obligations under the Indenture and (b) create, enter into and perform its obligations under the FedEx Office Guarantee.

 

3.                                      Each of the Indenture and the FedEx Office Guarantee has been duly and validly authorized, executed and delivered by FedEx Office.

 

I am qualified to practice law in the State of Texas, and the foregoing opinion is limited to the laws of the State of Texas.

 

I hereby consent to the filing of this opinion as an exhibit to a report on Form 8-K to be filed by the Company on the date hereof and its incorporation by reference into the Registration Statement.  In addition, I further consent to the reference to me under the heading “Legal Matters” in the Prospectus Supplement, which is a part of the Registration Statement.  In giving such consent, I do not admit that I am in the category of persons whose consent is required under Section 7 of the

Securities Act or the rules and regulations of the Commission thereunder.

 

Sidley Austin LLP, special counsel to the Company, may rely upon this opinion in rendering its opinion of even date herewith.
