         (d)      The description of the Common Stock contained in the Company's
                  registration  statement  on Form 8-A dated  January  18,  1996

         All documents  subsequently  filed by the Company  pursuant to Sections

prior to the  filing of a  post-effective  amendment  which  indicates  that all

         Any  statement  contained  in a document  incorporated  or deemed to be
incorporated  by reference  herein shall be deemed to be modified or  superseded

Item 6.  Indemnification of Directors and Officers

         Section  145 of the  Delaware  General  Corporation  Law  (the  "DGCL")
provides, in effect, that any person made a party to any action by reason of the
fact that he is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the Company may
and, in certain cases,  must be indemnified by the Company against,  in the case
of a non-derivative  action,  judgments,  fines,  amounts paid in settlement and
reasonable expenses  (including  attorney's fees) incurred by him as a result of
such action, and in the case of a derivative action, against expenses (including
attorney's  fees),  if in either  type of action he acted in good faith and in a
manner he reasonably  believed to be in or not opposed to the best  interests of
the Company.  This  indemnification  does not apply, in a derivative  action, to
matters as to which it is adjudged that the director, officer, employee or agent
is liable to the Company, unless upon court order it is determined that, despite
such  adjudication  of liability,  but in view of all the  circumstances  of the
case, he is fairly and

                                     II - 1

reasonably entitled to indemnity for expenses,  and, in a non-derivative action,
to any criminal  proceeding in which such person had reasonable cause to believe
his conduct was unlawful.

         Article  Sixth of the  Company's  Amended and Restated  Certificate  of
Incorporation  provides that the Company shall  indemnify  each person who is or
was an officer or director of the Company to the  fullest  extent  permitted  by
Section 145 of the DGCL.

         Article  Seventh of the Company's  Amended and Restated  Certificate of
Incorporation  states that no  director  of the  Company  shall be liable to the
Company or its stockholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as
a  director,  except  to the  extent  that  exculpation  from  liability  is not
permitted under the DGCL as in effect when such breach occurred.

Item 9.  Undertakings.

         (a)  The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes:

                  (1) to file,  during any  period in which  offers or sales are
         being made, a post-effective amendment to this Registration Statement:

                  (i)      to  include  any   prospectus   required  by  Section
                           10(a)(3) of the Securities Act of 1933;

                  (ii)     to  reflect  in the  prospectus  any  facts or events
                           arising after the effective date of the  Registration
                           Statement   (or  the   most   recent   post-effective
                           amendment  thereof)  which,  individually  or in  the
                           aggregate,  represent  a  fundamental  change  in the
                           information set forth in the Registration  Statement.
                           Notwithstanding   the  foregoing,   any  increase  or
                           decrease  in volume  of  securities  offered  (if the
                           total dollar value of  securities  offered  would not
                           exceed that which was  registered)  and any deviation
                           from  the low or high  and of the  estimated  maximum
                           offering  range  may  be  reflected  in the  form  of
                           prospectus filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule
                           424(b) if, in the  aggregate,  the  changes in volume
                           and price represent no more than 20 percent change in
                           the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the
                           "Calculation  of  Registration   Fee"  table  in  the
                           effective Registration Statement;

                  (iii)    to include any material  information  with respect to
                           the plan of distribution not previously  disclosed in
                           the Registration  Statement or any material change to
                           such information in the Registration Statement:

         provided,  however,  that  paragraphs  (a)(1)(i) and  (a)(1)(ii) do not
         apply if the  information  required to be included in a  post-effective
         amendment by those  paragraphs  is contained in periodic  reports filed
         with or  furnished  to the  Commission  by the  registrant  pursuant to
         Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 that
         are incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement;

                  (2) that, for the purpose of determining  any liability  under
         the Securities Act of 1933, each such post-effective amendment shall be
         deemed to be a new  Registration  Statement  relating to the securities
         offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall
         be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof; and

                  (3) to remove from  registration by means of a  post-effective
         amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at
         the termination of the offering;

         (b) The undersigned  registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of
determining  any liability  under the Securities Act of 1933, each filing of the
registrant's  annual  report  pursuant to Section  13(a) or Section 15(d) of the
Securities  Exchange  Act of 1934  (and,  where  applicable,  each  filing of an
employee  benefit  plan's  annual  report  pursuant  to  Section  15(d)  of  the
Securities  Exchange  Act of 1934)  that is  incorporated  by  reference  in the
Registration  Statement  shall  be  deemed  to be a new  Registration  Statement
relating to the securities offered therein,  and the offering of such securities
at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof; and

         (c)  Insofar  as  indemnification  for  liabilities  arising  under the
Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors,  officers and  controlling
persons of the registrant  pursuant to the foregoing  provisions,  or otherwise,
the  registrant  has been  advised  that in the  opinion of the  Securities  and
Exchange  Commission such  indemnification is against public policy as expressed
in that Act and is,  therefore,  unenforceable.  In the  event  that a claim for
indemnification  against  such  liabilities  (other  than  the  payment  by  the
registrant of expenses  incurred or paid by a director,  officer or  controlling
person of the  registrant  in the  successful  defense  of any  action,  suit or
proceeding)  is  asserted by such  director,  officer or  controlling  person in
connection with the securities being registered,  the registrant will, unless in
the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent,
submit  to a  court  of  appropriate  jurisdiction  the  question  whether  such
indemnification  by it is against  public policy as expressed in the  Securities
Act of 1933 and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.

Ladies and Gentlemen:

         In connection with the  registration  under the Securities Act of 1933,
as amended (the "Act"), by Iron Mountain  Incorporated,  a Delaware  corporation
(the  "Company"),  of an 589,957 shares of its Common Stock,  par value $.01 per
share ("Common  Stock"),  which are to be offered by the Company pursuant to the
provisions  of the  Iron  Mountain/UAC  1995  Stock  Option  Plan  and the  Iron
Mountain/ATSI 1995 Stock Option Plan (the "Option Plans") (all such shares being
referred  to  herein as the  "Registered  Shares"),  the  following  opinion  is
furnished to you to be filed with the  Securities and Exchange  Commission  (the
"Commission") as Exhibit 5 to the Company's  registration  statement on Form S-8
(the "Registration Statement") under the Act.

         We have  acted  as  counsel  to the  Company  in  connection  with  the
Registration Statement,  and we have examined originals or copies,  certified or
otherwise  identified to our satisfaction,  of the Registration  Statement,  the
Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation of the Company as presently in
effect,  corporate  records of the Company,  and such other documents as we have
considered necessary in order to furnish the opinion hereinafter set forth.

         This opinion is limited to the Delaware General Corporation Law and the
federal  laws of the United  States of America,  and we express no opinion  with
respect to the law of any other jurisdiction.

         Based on and subject to the foregoing, we are of the opinion that, when
issued in accordance with the terms of the Option Plans and the options or other
rights granted
