Re: The Navellier Performance Funds

Investment Company Act of 1940 Reg. No. 811-9142
Mr. Navellier:
This opinion is furnished to you in connection with Rule 24f-2 of the
Investment Company Act of 1940. I understand that, pursuant to Rule 24f-2,
The Navellier Performance Funds (the Fund ) has registered an indefinite
number of shares of beneficial interest ( Shares ) under the Securities Act
of 1933. I further understand that, pursuant to the provisions of Rule
24f-2, the Fund is filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission the
Notice attached hereto making definite the registration of the Shares sold
in reliance upon Rule 24f-2 during the year ended December 31, 1996.
In rendering my opinion, I have examined such documents, records, and other
matters of law as I have deemed necessary for purposes of this opinion. I
have assumed, without independent investigation or verification, the
genuineness of all signatures of all parties, the authenticity of all
documents submitted as originals, the correctness of all copies, and the
correctness of all facts set forth in certificates delivered to me or
written or oral statements made to me. This opinion is issued as of the
date hereof and is necessarily limited by laws now in effect and facts and
circumstances presently brought to my attention and is subject to any
change in law or facts reported or occurring subsequent to the date hereof.
Based upon and subject to the foregoing, it is my opinion that the Shares,
which the Rule 24f-2 Notice attached hereto makes definite in number, were
legally issued, fully paid, and non-assessable.<PAGE>
