We have acted as special United States counsel to F&G Annuities & Life, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), in connection with the public offering by the Company of (i) Senior Notes due 2053 (the “Initial Notes” and, together with the Guarantees (as defined below) thereof by the Guarantors (as defined below), the “Initial Securities”) under the Initial Registration Statement (as defined below) and (ii) additional Senior Notes due 2053 (the “Additional Notes” and, together with the Guarantees thereof by the Guarantors, the “Additional Securities”) under the Abbreviated Registration Statement (as defined below). The Initial Notes together with the Additional Notes are herein referred to as the “Notes”. The Notes are to be issued under the Indenture, dated as of January 13, 2023 (the “Base Indenture”), among the Company, the entities identified on Schedule 1 hereto (collectively, the “Delaware Guarantors”; the Delaware Guarantors, together with the Company, the “Specified Opinion Parties”) and Citibank, N.A., as trustee (the “Trustee”), as supplemented by the Second Supplemental Indenture, dated as of January 26, 2023 (the “Second Supplemental Indenture”), between CF Bermuda Holdings Limited (“CF Bermuda” and, together with the Delaware Guarantors, the “Guarantors”; the Guarantors collectively with the Company, the “Opinion Parties” and each, an “Opinion Party”) and the Trustee, and the Third Supplemental Indenture (the “Third Supplemental Indenture” and, together with the Base Indenture and the Second Supplemental Indenture, the “Indenture”), among the Company, the Guarantors and the Trustee.

This opinion is being furnished in accordance with the requirements of Item 601(b)(5) of Regulation S-K under the Securities Act of 1933 (the “Securities Act”).
In rendering the opinions stated herein, we have examined and relied upon the following:
(a)the registration statement on Form S-1 of the Company and the Guarantors relating to the Initial Securities filed on November 27, 2023 with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) under the Securities Act, including the information deemed to be a part of the registration statement pursuant to Rule 430A of the General Rules and Regulations under the Securities Act (the “Rules and Regulations”) (such registration statement, as so amended, being hereinafter referred to as the “Initial Registration Statement”);

(b)the form of the Underwriting Agreement (the “Underwriting Agreement”) proposed to be entered into among the Company, the Guarantors and Wells Fargo Securities, LLC, BofA Securities, Inc., Morgan Stanley & Co. LLC, RBC Capital Markets, LLC and UBS Securities LLC, as representatives (the “Representatives”) of the several underwriters (the “Underwriters”) named therein, relating to the sale by the Company to the Underwriters of the Notes, filed as Exhibit 1.1 to the Initial Registration Statement;
(c)an executed copy of the Base Indenture, including Article 10 thereof containing the guaranty obligations of the Delaware Guarantors of the Notes (the “Delaware Guarantor Guarantees”);
(d)an executed copy of the Second Supplemental Indenture, including Section 2.1 thereof containing the guaranty obligations of CF Bermuda of the Notes on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Base Indenture, including, but not limited to, Article 10 thereof (the “CF Bermuda Guarantee” and, together with the Delaware Guarantor Guarantees, the “Guarantees”);
(e)the Third Supplemental Indenture;
(f)the form of global certificate evidencing the Notes to be registered in the name of Cede & Co. and included as an exhibit to the Initial Registration Statement (the “Note Certificate”);

F&G Annuities & Life, Inc.
November 29, 2023
Page 3
of the State of Delaware as of the date specified on Schedule 2 hereto and certified pursuant to the applicable Secretary’s Certificate;
(j)copies of each Specified Opinion Party’s Bylaws, as amended and in effect as of the date specified on Schedule 2 hereto, and certified pursuant to the applicable Secretary’s Certificate; and
(k)copies of certain resolutions adopted by the Board of Directors (or committee thereof) of each Specified Opinion Party, as of the date specified on Schedule 2 hereto, certified pursuant to the applicable Secretary’s Certificate.
We have also examined originals or copies, certified or otherwise identified to our satisfaction, of such records of the Opinion Parties and such agreements, certificates and receipts of public officials, certificates of officers or other representatives of the Opinion Parties and others, and such other documents as we have deemed necessary or appropriate as a basis for the opinions stated below.
In our examination, we have assumed the genuineness of all signatures, including electronic signatures, the legal capacity and competency of all natural persons, the authenticity of all documents submitted to us as originals, the conformity to original documents of all documents submitted to us as facsimile, electronic, certified or photocopied copies, and the authenticity of the originals of such copies. As to any facts relevant to the opinions stated herein that we did not independently establish or verify, we have relied upon statements and representations of officers and other representatives of the Opinion Parties and others and of public officials, including the facts and conclusions set forth in the Secretary’s Certificates and the factual representations and warranties contained in the Transaction Documents (as defined below).
We do not express any opinion with respect to the laws of any jurisdiction other than (i) the laws of the State of New York and (ii) the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware (the “DGCL”) (all of the foregoing being referred to as the “Opined-on Law”).
As used herein, “Transaction Documents” means the Indenture (including the Guarantees provided for therein), and the Note Certificate.
Based upon the foregoing and subject to the qualifications and assumptions stated herein, we are of the opinion that:
1.When (i) the Abbreviated Registration Statement, as finally amended (including all necessary post-effective amendments), has become effective under the Securities Act; (ii) the Underwriting Agreement has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by the Company and the other parties thereto; (iii) the Third Supplemental Indenture has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by the Company and the other parties thereto; and (iv) the Note Certificate, in the form examined by us has been duly authorized by all requisite corporate action on the part of the Company under the DGCL and, when executed by the Company and duly authenticated by the Trustee and issued and delivered by the Company against payment therefor


F&G Annuities & Life, Inc.
November 29, 2023
Page 4
in accordance with the terms of the Underwriting Agreement and the Indenture, the Note Certificate will constitute the valid and binding obligation of the Company, entitled to the benefits of the Indenture and enforceable against the Company in accordance with its terms under the laws of the State of New York.
2.The Guarantee of each Delaware Guarantor has been duly authorized by all requisite corporate action on the part of such Delaware Guarantor under the DGCL and, when the Note Certificate is executed by the Company and duly authenticated by the Trustee and issued and delivered by the Company against payment therefor in accordance with the terms of the Underwriting Agreement and the Indenture, the Guarantee of each Guarantor will constitute the valid and binding obligation of such Guarantor, enforceable against such Guarantor in accordance with its terms under the laws of the State of New York.
The opinions stated herein are subject to the following qualifications:
(a)we do not express any opinion with respect to the effect on the opinions stated herein of any bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, fraudulent transfer, preference and other similar laws or governmental orders affecting creditors’ rights generally, and the opinions stated herein are limited by such laws and orders and by general principles of equity (regardless of whether enforcement is sought in equity or at law);
(b)we do not express any opinion with respect to the effect on the opinions stated herein of (i) the compliance or non-compliance of any party to any of the Transaction Documents with any laws, rules or regulations applicable to such party or (ii) the legal status or legal capacity of any party to any of the Transaction Documents;
(c)we do not express any opinion with respect to any law, rule or regulation that is applicable to any party to any of the Transaction Documents or the transactions contemplated thereby solely because such law, rule or regulation is part of a regulatory regime applicable to any such party or any of its affiliates as a result of the specific assets or business operations of such party or such affiliates;
(d)except to the extent expressly stated in the opinions contained herein, we have assumed that each of the Transaction Documents constitutes the valid and binding obligation of each party to such Transaction Document, enforceable against such party in accordance with its terms;
(e)the opinions stated herein are limited to the agreements and documents specifically identified in the opinions contained herein without regard to any agreement or other document referenced in such agreement or document (including agreements or other documents incorporated by reference or attached or annexed thereto);
(f)we do not express any opinion with respect to the enforceability of any provision contained in any Transaction Document relating to any indemnification, contribution, non-reliance, exculpation, release, limitation or exclusion of remedies, waiver or other provisions having similar effect that may be contrary to public policy or violative of federal or state


F&G Annuities & Life, Inc.
November 29, 2023

securities laws, rules or regulations, or to the extent any such provision purports to, or has the effect of, waiving or altering any statute of limitations;
(g)we do not express any opinion with respect to the enforceability of any provision contained in any Transaction Document purporting to prohibit, restrict or condition the assignment of rights under such Transaction Document to the extent that such prohibition, restriction or condition on assignability is ineffective pursuant to the Uniform Commercial Code;
(h)to the extent that any opinion relates to the enforceability of the choice of New York law and choice of New York forum provisions contained in any Transaction Document, the opinions stated herein are subject to the qualification that such enforceability may be subject to, in each case, (i) the exceptions and limitations in New York General Obligations Law sections 5-1401 and 5-1402 and (ii) principles of comity and constitutionality;
(i)we do not express any opinion with respect to Section 12.9 of the Base Indenture to the extent that such section provides for a waiver of trial by jury;

(k)we do not express any opinion with respect to the enforceability of Section 10.1 of the Base Indenture and Section 2.1 of the Second Supplemental Indenture to the extent that such sections provide that the obligations of the Guarantors are absolute and unconditional irrespective of the enforceability or genuineness of the Indenture or the effect thereof on the opinions herein stated;
(l)we do not express any opinion with respect to the enforceability of the provisions contained in Section 10.2 of the Base Indenture to the extent that such provisions limit the obligation of the Guarantors under the Indenture or any right of contribution of any party with respect to the obligations under the Indenture;
(m)we call to your attention that the opinions stated herein are subject to possible judicial action giving effect to governmental actions or laws of jurisdictions other than those with respect to which we express our opinion;
(n)we do not express any opinion with respect to the enforceability of any provision contained in any Transaction Document providing for indemnity by any party thereto against any loss in obtaining the currency due to such party under any Transaction Document from a court judgment in another currency;
(o)we do not express any opinion whether the execution or delivery of any Transaction Document by any Opinion Party, or the performance by any Opinion Party of its


F&G Annuities & Life, Inc.

Page 6
obligations under any Transaction Document to which such Opinion Party is a party will constitute a violation of, or a default under, any covenant, restriction or provision with respect to financial ratios or tests or any aspect of the financial condition or results of operations of any Opinion Party or any of its subsidiaries; and
(p)we have assumed that subsequent to the effectiveness of the Base Indenture, the Base Indenture has not been modified, amended, restated, supplemented or terminated, other than by the First Supplemental Indenture, the Second Supplemental Indenture and the Third Supplemental Indenture, and that the Indenture will constitute the valid and binding obligation of the Opinion Parties immediately prior to the issuance of the Note Certificate and the Guarantees.
In addition, in rendering the foregoing opinions we have assumed that:
(a)CF Bermuda (i) is duly organized and is validly existing and in good standing, (ii) has requisite legal status and legal capacity under the laws of the jurisdiction of its organization and (iii) has complied and will comply with all aspects of the laws of the jurisdiction of its organization in connection with the transactions contemplated by, and the performance of its obligations under, the Transaction Documents to which CF Bermuda is a party;

(c)each of the Transaction Documents to which CF Bermuda is a party has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by all requisite corporate action on the part of CF Bermuda;
(d)neither the execution and delivery by each Opinion Party of the Transaction Documents to which it is a party nor the performance by such Opinion Party of its obligations under each of the Transaction Documents to which it is a party, including the issuance of the Notes and the Guarantees: (i) conflicts or will conflict with the organizational documents of CF Bermuda, (ii) constitutes or will constitute a violation of, or a default under, any lease, indenture, agreement or other instrument to which any Opinion Party or its property is subject (except that we do not make the assumption set forth in this clause (ii) with respect to those agreements or instruments expressed to be governed by the laws of the State of New York which are filed in Part II of the Initial Registration Statement or the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022), (iii) contravenes or will contravene any order or decree of any governmental authority to which any Opinion Party or its property is subject, or (iv) violates or will violate any law, rule or regulation to which any Opinion Party or its property is subject (except that we do not make the assumption set forth in this clause (iv) with respect to the Opined-on Law); and
(e)neither the execution and delivery by each Opinion Party of the Transaction Documents to which it is a party nor the performance by each Opinion Party of its obligations under each of the Transaction Documents to which it is a party, including the issuance of the Notes and the Guarantees, requires or will require the consent, approval, licensing or authorization of, or any filing, recording or registration with, any governmental authority under any law, rule or regulation of any jurisdiction.
