Series 2010-A, of the City of Salina,Kansas, Dated May 1, 2010 We have acted as Bond Counsel in connection with the issuance by the City of Salina, Kansas (the "Issuer"), of the above-captioned bonds (the `Bonds"). In this capacity, we have examined the law and the certified proceedings, certifications and other documents that we deem necessary to render this . opinion. Capitalized terms not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed thereto in the resolution adopted by the governing body of the Issuer prescribing the details of the Bonds. • Regarding questions of fact material to our opinion, we have relied on the certified proceedings and other certifications of public officials and others furnished to us without undertaking to verify them by independent investigation.' •• •Bav ed upon the foregoing,we are of the opinion,under existing law, as follows: The•Bonds have been duly authorized, executed and delivered by the Issuer and are valid •••• • • and legally binditig•gciteral obligations of the Issuer. • • ••2.• the•Bonds are payable as to both principal and interest in part from special assessments levie•dlpotr the Property benefited by the construction of certain improvements and, if not so paid, from • • •• ad valorem taxegwi ick may be levied without limitation as to rate or amount upon all the taxable tangible propgtylercal and'personal, within the territorial limits of the Issuer. The balance of the principal and interesF MM the Bonds is payable from ad valorem taxes which may be levied without limitation as to rate or anpnttjupon all the taxable tangible property, real and personal, within the territorial limits of the Issuer. The Issuer is required by law to include in its annual tax levy the principal and interest coming due on the Bonds to the extent that necessary funds are not provided from other sources. • 7 • • t. .M01253 045626 . , • 3. The interest on the Bonds is excluded from gross income for federal income tax purposes. Interest on the Bonds is not an item of tax preference for purposes of the federal alternative minimum tax imposed on individuals and corporations but is taken into account in determining adjusted current earnings for the purpose of computing the alternative minimum tax imposed on certain corporations. The opinions set forth in this paragraph are subject to the condition that the Issuer comply with all requirements of the Internal Revenue Code of.1986, as amended (the "Code"), that must be satisfied subsequent to the issuance of the Bonds in order to preserve the exclusion of the interest on the Bonds from gross income for federal income tax purposes. The Issuer has covenanted to comply with all of these requirements. Failure to comply with certain of these requirements may cause interest on the Bonds to be included in gross income for federal income tax purposes retroactive to the date of issuance of the • Bonds. The Bonds are"qualified tax-exempt obligations"within the meaning of Section 265(b)(3) of the Code, and, in the case of certain financial institutions (within the meaning of Section 265(b)(5) of the Code), a deduction is allowed for 80 percent of that portion of such financial institution's interest expense allocable to interest on the Bonds. We express no opinion regarding other federal tax consequences arising with respect to the Bonds. 4. The interest on the Bonds is excluded from computation of Kansas adjusted gross income. We express no opinion regarding the accuracy, completeness or sufficiency of the Official Statement or other offering material relating to the Bonds (except to the extent, if any, stated in the Official Statement). Further, we express no opinion regarding tax consequences arising with respect to the Bonds other than as expressly set forth in this opinion. The rights of the owners of the Bonds and the enforceability thereof may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium and other similar laws affecting creditors' rights generally and by equitable principles, whether considered at law or in equity. This opinion is given as of its date, and we assume no obligation to revise or supplement this opinion to reflect any facts or circumstances that may come to our attention or any changes in law that may occur after the date of this opinion.

In this capacity, we have examined the law and the certified proceedings, certifications and other documents that we deem necessary to render this opinion. Capitalized terms not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed thereto in the resolution adopted by the governing body of the Issuer prescribing the details of the Bonds. Regarding questions of fact material to our opinion, we have relied on the certified proceedings and other certifications of public officials and others furnished to us without undertaking to verify them by independent investigation. Based upon the foregoing, we are of the opinion, tinder existing law, as follows: 1. The Bonds have been duly authorized, executed and delivered by the Issuer and are valid and legally binding general obligations of the Issuer. 2. The Bonds are payable as to both principal and interest in part from special assessments levied upon the property benefited by the construction of certain improvements and, if not so paid, from ad valorem taxes which may be levied without limitation as to rate or amount upon all the taxable tangible property, real and personal, within the territorial limits of the Issuer. The balance of the principal and interest on the Bonds is payable from ad valorem taxes which may be levied without limitation as to rate or amount upon all the taxable tangible property, real and personal, within the territorial limits of the Issuer. The Issuer is required by law to include in its annual tax levy the principal and interest coming due on the Bonds to the extent that necessary funds are not provided from other sources. M01253 045618 3. The interest on the Bonds is excluded from gross income for federal income tax purposes.

The Issuer nas covenanted to comply with all of these requirements. Failure to comply with certain of these requirements may cause interest on the Bonds to be included in gross income for federal income tax purposes retroactive to the date of issuance of the Bonds. The Bonds are "qualified tax - exempt obligations" within the meaning of Section 265(b)(3) of the Code, and, in the case of certain financial institutions (within the meaning of Section 265(b)(5) of the Code), a deduction is allowed for 80 percent of that portion of such financial institution's interest expense allocable to interest on the Bonds. We express no opinion regarding other federal tax consequences arising with respect to the Bonds. 4. The interest on the Bonds is excluded from computation of Kansas adjusted gross income. We express no opinion regarding the accuracy, completeness or sufficiency of the Official Statement or other offering material relating to the Bonds (except to the extent, if any, stated in the Official Statement). Further, we express no opinion regarding tax consequences arising with respect to the Bonds other than as expressly set forth in this opinion. The rights of the owners of the Bonds and the enforceability thereof may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium and other similar laws affecting creditors' rights generally and by equitable principles, whether considered at law or in equity.

Attorneys at Law 2405 Grand Boulevard Suite 1100 Kansas City, Missouri 64108 ...• Governing Body City of Salina. Kansas •..• • .... .. ••... Country Club Bank . . • Prairie Village, Kansas .... • Re: S6,875,000 General Obligation Internal Improvement and Refurfdith ••�� Series 2010-A, of the City of Salina, Kansas, Dated May 1, 2010 • ...• • We have acted as Bond Counsel in connection with the issuance by the City of Salina, Kansas (the "Issuer"), of the above-captioned bonds (the "Bonds"). In this capacity, we have examined the law and the certified proceedings, certifications and other documents that we deem necessary to render this opinion. Capitalized terms not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed thereto in the resolution adopted by the governing body of the Issuer prescribing the details of the Bonds. • Regarding questions of fact material to our opinion, we have relied on the certified proceedings and other certifications of public officials and others furnished to us without undertaking to verify them by independent investigation. Based upon the foregoing, we are of the opinion, under existing law, as follows: 1. The Bonds have been duly authorized, executed and delivered by the Issuer and are valid and legally binding general obligations of the Issuer. • • 2. The Bonds are payable as to both principal and interest in part from special assessments levied upon the property benefited by the construction of certain improvements and, if not so paid, from ad valorem taxes which may be levied without limitation as to rate or amount upon all the taxable tangible • property real and personal, within the territorial limits of the Issuer. The balance of the principal and interest on the Bonds is payable from ad valorem taxes which may be levied without limitation as to rate or amount upon all the taxable tangible property, real and personal, within the territorial limits of the Issuer. The Issuer is required by law to include in its annual tax levy the principal and interest coming due on the Bonds to the extent that necessary funds are not provided from other sources. • • • • h1012545- • 3. The interest on the Bonds is excluded from gross income for federal income tax purposes. Interest on the Bonds is not an item of tax preference for purposes of the federal alternative minimum tax imposed on individuals and corporations but is taken into account in determining adjusted current earnings for the purpose of computing the alternative minimum tax imposed on certain corporations. The opinions set forth in this paragraph are subject to the condition• that the Issuer comply with all requirements of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"), that must be satisfied subsequent to the issuance of the Bonds in order to preserve the exclusion of the interest on the Bonds from gross income for federal income tax purposes. The Issuer has covenanted to comply with all of these requirements. Failure to comply with certain of these requirements may cause interest on the Bonds to be included in gross income for federal income tax purposes retroactive to the date of issuance of the Bonds. The Bonds are "qualified tax-exempt obligations" within the meaning of Section 265(b)(3) of the Code, and, in the case of certain financial institutions (within the meaning of Section 265(b)(5) of the Code), a deduction is allowed for SO percent of that portion of such financial institution's interest,expense ' allocable to interest on the Bonds. We express no opinion regarding other federal tax consequences arising with respect to the Bonds. - •••• • .... • • •• • 4. The interest on the Bonds is excluded from computation of Kansas •adjust.d n oss • . income. '., • • • • • . We express no opinion regarding the accuracy, completeness or sufficienly of the Official Statement or other offering material relating to the Bonds (except to the extent:if an:', stated to the • • Official Statement). Further, we express no opinion regarding tax consequences arising with ie3pci'4 to the Bonds other than as expressly set forth in this opinion. ,••• The rights of the owners of the Bonds and the enforceability thereof may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium and other similar laws affecting creditors' rights generally and by equitable principles, whether considered at law or in equity. This opinion is given as of its date, and we assume no obligation to revise or supplement this opinion to reflect any facts or circumstances that may come to our attention or any changes in law that may occur after the date of this opinion. • GILMORE & BELL, P.C. • S
