the indemnification provided for in this Section&nbsp;9 is unavailable to or insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party under
Section&nbsp;9(a)&nbsp;or Section&nbsp;9(b)&nbsp;hereof in respect of any losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses (or actions
in respect thereof) referred to therein, then each indemnifying party under Section&nbsp;9(a)&nbsp;or Section&nbsp;9(b)&nbsp;hereof shall
contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses
(or actions in respect thereof) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the Company on the
one hand and the Underwriters on the other hand from the offering of the Securities. If, however, the allocation provided by the immediately
preceding sentence is not permitted by applicable law or if the indemnified party failed to give the notice required under Section&nbsp;9(c)&nbsp;hereof,
then each such indemnifying party shall contribute to such amount paid or payable by such indemnified party in such proportion as is
appropriate to reflect not only such relative benefits but also the relative fault of the Company on the one hand and the Underwriters
on the other hand in connection with the statements or omissions that resulted in such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses
(or actions in respect thereof), as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative benefits received by the Company
on the one hand and the Underwriters on the other hand shall be deemed to be in the same proportion as the total net proceeds from such
offering (before deducting expenses) received by the Company bear to the total underwriting discounts and commissions received by the
Underwriters, in each case as set forth in the table on the cover page&nbsp;of the Prospectus. The relative fault of the Company on the
one hand and the Underwriters on the other hand shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged
untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the
Company or the Underwriters and the parties&rsquo; relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent
such statement or omission. The Company and the Underwriters agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to
this Section&nbsp;9(d)&nbsp;were determined by <I>pro rata </I>allocation (even if the Underwriters were treated as one entity for such
purpose) or by any other method of allocation that does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to above in this Section&nbsp;9(d).
The amount paid or payable by such an indemnified party as a result of the losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses (or actions
in respect thereof) referred to above in this Section&nbsp;9(d)&nbsp;shall be deemed to include any legal or other expenses reasonably
incurred by such indemnified party in connection with investigating or defending any such action or claim. Notwithstanding the provisions
of this Section&nbsp;9(d), no Underwriter shall be required to contribute any amount in excess of the amount by which the total price
at which the Securities underwritten by such Underwriter and distributed to the public were offered to the public exceeds the amount
of any damages that such Underwriter has otherwise been required to pay by reason of such untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission
or alleged omission. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section&nbsp;11(f)&nbsp;of the 1933 Act)
shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. The Underwriters' obligations
in this Section&nbsp;9(d)&nbsp;to contribute are several in proportion to their respective underwriting obligations and not joint.</FONT></P>

officials. In addition,&nbsp;I, or persons under my supervision and control, have reviewed such other documents and materials as I have
deemed necessary or appropriate for purposes of this opinion. In connection with such review,&nbsp;I have assumed the genuineness of all
signatures, the legal capacity of natural persons, the conformity to the originals of the documents submitted to me as certified or photostatic

 &ldquo;Securities Act&rdquo;), with respect to the registration of an unspecified amount of securities, which became effective on October
13, 2023. On December 21, 2023, the Company issued and sold $700,000,000 principal amount of its 5.00% Senior Notes due 2029 (the &ldquo;Notes&rdquo;)
under an Indenture, dated as of December&nbsp;1, 2001, between the Company and The&nbsp;Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A. (as

the Notes by the Company, we have reviewed originals (or copies certified or otherwise identified to our satisfaction) of (1) the Registration
Statement; (2) a prospectus dated October 13, 2023 (the &ldquo;Base Prospectus&rdquo;) forming a part of the Registration Statement, as
supplemented by a prospectus supplement dated December 18, 2023 (the &ldquo;Prospectus Supplement&rdquo;) relating to the Notes, both
such Base Prospectus and Prospectus Supplement filed pursuant to Rule 424 under the Securities Act; (3) the Company&rsquo;s Restated Articles
of Incorporation, as amended, and By-Laws, as amended, each as in effect on the date hereof; (4) the Indenture; (5) a specimen of the
Notes; and (6) corporate and other documents, records and papers and certificates of public officials. In addition, we have reviewed such
other documents and materials as we have deemed necessary or appropriate for purposes of this opinion. In connection with such review,
we have assumed the genuineness of all signatures, the legal capacity of natural persons, the conformity to the originals of the documents
submitted to us as certified or photostatic copies, the authenticity of the originals of such documents and all documents submitted to
us as originals and the correctness of all statements of fact contained in such original documents. We have relied upon a certificate
of the Trustee as to the authentication and delivery of the Notes under the Indenture.</P>
