The Securities will be offered in amounts, at prices and on terms to be determined in light of market conditions and other factors at the time of sale and, if necessary, will be set forth in supplements (each, a “Prospectus Supplement”) to the Prospectus contained in the Registration Statement to which this opinion letter is an exhibit.

In our capacity as counsel to the Wyoming Guarantors, in connection with the opinions set forth below, we have reviewed and relied upon the following (the “Opinion Documents”):

(a) Registration Statement, including the Prospectus;

(b) the form of Senior Indenture relating to the Debt Securities and filed as an exhibit to the Registration Statement; (iii) the form of Subordinated Indenture relating to the Debt Securities and filed as an exhibit to the Registration Statement (the Senior Indenture and the Subordinated Indenture are collectively referred to herein as the “Indentures”); and

(c) copies of the articles of organization and limited liability company operating agreements of each of the Wyoming Guarantors, certified by each Wyoming Guarantor as being the copies of such documents currently in effect as to each of the Wyoming Guarantors;

(d) copies of unanimous written consent of the board of managers or sole member general partner in lieu of a meeting as to the Wyoming Guarantors dated as of May 18, 2022;

(e) copies of certificates of existence and good standing, dated as of May 20, 2022, received by us from the Secretary of State of the State of Wyoming, as to the valid existence and good standing of the Wyoming Guarantors; and

(f) certificates of officers of the Wyoming Guarantors and such other documents and records as we have deemed necessary or advisable for purposes of the opinions expressed below.

In connection with the opinions expressed below, we have assumed that the Registration Statement, and any amendments thereto (including post-effective amendments), will have become effective and the Securities will be issued and sold in compliance with applicable federal and state securities laws and in the manner described in the Registration Statement and any applicable supplement to the Prospectus contained in the Registration Statement. In rendering the opinions expressed below, we have assumed (i) that the signatures of persons signing all documents in connection with which this opinion is rendered are genuine, and (ii) the authenticity of all documents submitted to us as originals, the conformity to original documents of all documents submitted to us as copies.

Based on the foregoing and subject to the qualifications hereinafter set forth, we are of the opinion that: Each of the Wyoming Guarantors is a limited liability company validly existing in good standing under the laws of the State of Wyoming, with all necessary limited liability company power and authority to execute, deliver and perform its obligations under the Indentures, including any Guarantees providing for a guarantee of payments of the Debt Securities.
