Ladies and Gentlemen:
I am the Executive Vice President, General Counsel and Secretary of ARAMARK Holdings Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the “Company”). The Company and ARAMARK Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the “Issuer”), have filed a Registration Statement on Form S-4 (the “Registration Statement”) together with the subsidiary guarantors listed therein (such subsidiary guarantors, together with the Company, the “Guarantors”) with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, relating to the issuance by the Issuer of $1,000,000,000 aggregate principal amount of 5.75% Senior Notes due 2020 (the “Exchange Notes”) and the issuance by the Guarantors of guarantees (the “Guarantees”) with respect to the Exchange Notes. The Exchange Notes and the Guarantees will be issued under an indenture dated as of March 7, 2013 (as amended through the date hereof, the “Indenture”), among the Issuer, the Guarantors and The Bank of New York Mellon, as trustee (the “Trustee”). The Exchange Notes will be offered by the Issuer in exchange for $1,000,000,000 aggregate principal amount of its outstanding 5.75% Senior Notes due 2020.
I have examined the Registration Statement and the Indenture, which has been filed with the Commission as an exhibit to the Registration Statement.
In rendering the opinions contained herein, I have relied upon my examination or the examination by members of our legal staff or outside counsel (in the ordinary course of business) of the original or copies certified or otherwise identified to our satisfaction of the charter, bylaws or other governing documents of the subsidiaries named in Schedule I hereto (the “Schedule I Subsidiaries”), resolutions and written consents of their respective boards of directors, general partners, managers and managing members, as the case may be, statements and certificates from officers of the Schedule I Subsidiaries and such other documents and records relating to the Schedule I Subsidiaries as we have deemed appropriate. I, or a member of my staff, have also examined the originals, or duplicates or certified or conformed copies, of such records, agreements, documents and other instruments of all the registrants and have made such other investigations as I have deemed relevant and necessary in connection with the opinions hereinafter set forth. As to questions of fact material to this opinion, I have relied upon certificates or comparable documents or statements of public officials and of officers and representatives of the Company, the Issuer, and the Schedule I Subsidiaries.
