Based upon such examination of law and fact as I have <br /> deemed necessary or appropriate, I am of the opinion that: <br /> 1. Lessee is a public body corporate and politic, duly organized, legally existing under the <br /> laws of the State of Illinois. <br /> 2. The Agreement has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by Lessee pursuant to <br /> Constitutional, statutory and/or home rule provisions which authorizes this transaction in <br /> accordance with its terms and conditions. <br /> 3. The Agreement is a legal, valid and binding obligation of Lessee, enforceable in <br /> accordance with its terms. In the event the Lessor obtains judgment against Lessee in <br /> money damages, as a result of an event of default under the Agreement, Lessee will be <br /> obligated to pay such judgment. <br /> 4. Applicable public bidding requirements have been complied with. <br /> 5. No litigation is pending or,to the best of my knowledge, threatened in any court of other <br /> tribunal, state or Federal, in any way questioning or affecting the validity of the <br /> resolution or the Agreement. <br /> 6. The signature of the official of Lessee which appears on the Agreement is true and <br /> genuine; I know said official and know him/her to hold the office set forth below his/her <br /> name. <br /> America's Agribusiness Center <br />
