Ladies and Gentlemen:

We are issuing this opinion in our capacity as special counsel to those subsidiaries listed on Attachment A hereto (the “Subject Entities”) of Fidelity National Information Services, Inc., a Georgia corporation (the “Company”), in connection with the issuance and sale of $300,000,000 in aggregate principal amount of the Company’s 1.450% Senior Notes due 2017 (the “ 2017 Notes”) and $700,000,000 in aggregate principal amount of the Company’s 3.875% Senior Notes due 2024 (the “2024 Notes” and, together with the 2017 Notes, the “Securities”), pursuant to the Underwriting Agreement, dated May 27, 2014 (the “Underwriting Agreement”), among the Company, the underwriters listed on Schedule 1 thereto, and each of the guarantors listed on Schedule 2 thereto (the “Guarantors”), and the issuance of the guarantees on each of the Securities (the “Guarantees”) by the Guarantors. The Securities will be issued pursuant to an Indenture dated as of April 15, 2013 (the “Base Indenture”), among the Company, the Guarantors, and The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A., as trustee; as supplemented by a Third Supplemental Indenture to be dated as of June 3, 2014 relating to the 2017 Notes (the “Third Supplemental Indenture”) and as further supplemented by a Fourth Supplemental Indenture to be dated as of June 3, 2014 relating to the 2024 Notes (the “Fourth Supplemental Indenture” together with the Third Supplemental Indenture and the Base Indenture are collectively referred to herein as the “Indenture”).

In connection with this opinion, we have examined originals or copies of the Underwriting Agreement, Guarantees, Indenture and such documents, corporate records, instruments, certificates of public officials and of the Subject Entities (including, without limitation, an Opinion Certificate made by the Subject Entities attached hereto as Attachment B), made such inquiries of officials of the Subject Entities, and considered such questions of law as we have deemed necessary for the purpose of rendering the opinions set forth herein.

In such examination, we have assumed the genuineness of all signatures and the authenticity of all items submitted to us as originals and the conformity with originals of all items submitted to us as copies and that each document obtained from a public authority is accurate, complete and authentic, and all official records (including their proper indexing and filing) are accurate and complete. Also, in making our examination of executed documents for the purposes of the opinions expressed herein we have assumed: (i) other than with respect to the Subject Entities, that each other entity is validly existing and in good standing (or the equivalent) as a corporation, limited liability company or other applicable legal entity under the laws of its jurisdiction of organization and has the requisite power and authority to execute and deliver such documents to which it is a party and to carry out and consummate all transactions contemplated to be performed by such documents; (ii) other than with respect to the Subject Entities, that each such entity has duly authorized the execution, delivery and performance of such documents to which it is a party and has, in fact, duly executed and delivered such documents to which it is a party; (iii) that such documents (including, without limitation, the Indenture and all documents related thereto) constitute the legal, valid and binding obligations of each party thereto, enforceable in accordance with their respective terms; and (iv) all natural persons who are signatories to such documents were legally competent at the time of their execution thereof.

due organization, existence and good standing of the Subject Entities are based solely upon certificates issued by the relevant authorities in the State of Minnesota, and are limited to the meaning ascribed to such certificates in such States and limited to the respective dates thereof.

We express no opinion as to the applicability of, compliance with or effect of, the law of any jurisdiction other than the substantive laws (excluding its applicable choice of law rules) of the State of Minnesota, as in effect on the date hereof.

We also have assumed that the constitutionality or validity of a relevant statute, rule, regulation or agency action is not in issue unless a reported decision in Minnesota has established its unconstitutionality or invalidity.
