Re: Interstate Energy Company (the "Company"), et al. -
Statement on Form U-1, as Amended - File No. 70-9395
Dear Ladies and Gentlemen:
I have read the Statement on Form U-1, as amended, in the
above-referenced proceeding (the "Application") and am furnishing
this opinion with respect to the proposed transactions described
therein, which relate to the acquisition by Whiting Petroleum
Corporation ("Whiting"), an indirect subsidiary of the Company,
of all of the issued and outstanding common stock of Golden Gas
Production Company ("Golden Gas"), an unaffiliated company, in
exchange for common stock to be issued by the Company (the
"Transaction").
I am of the opinion that, upon the issuance of your order or
orders in this proceeding granting or permitting the Application
to become effective with respect to such proposed Transaction,
and in the event that the proposed Transaction is consummated in
accordance with said Application and your order or orders in
respect thereto:
(a) all state laws applicable to the proposed
Transaction will have been complied with;
(b) the Company is (i) validly organized and duly
existing, and (ii) the shares of common stock of
the Company to be issued will be validly issued,
fully paid and nonassessable (except as otherwise
provided in Section 180.0622(2)(b) of the
Wisconsin Business Corporation Law), and the
holders thereof will be entitled to the rights and
privileges appertaining thereto set forth in the
Company's articles of incorporation;
(c) Whiting will legally acquire the outstanding
common stock of Golden Gas; and
(d) the consummation of the proposed Transaction will
not violate the legal rights of the holders of any
securities issued by the Company or any associate
company thereof.
I am an attorney licensed to practice in the State of
Wisconsin and have acted as counsel to the Company and Whiting in
connection with the proposed Transaction. I express no opinion
with respect to the laws of any other State or jurisdiction.
I hereby give my written consent to the use of this opinion
in connection with the Application.
Very truly yours,
/s/ Steven R. Suleski
