T. Rowe Price International Funds, Inc.
100 East Pratt Street
Baltimore, Maryland 21202
Dear Sirs:
T. Rowe Price International Funds, Inc., a Maryland corporation (the
"Corporation") is filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission a Rule
24f-2 Notice on behalf of its series, T. Rowe Price International Stock Fund,
T. Rowe Price International Discovery Fund, T. Rowe Price European Stock Fund,
T. Rowe Price New Asia Fund, T. Rowe Price Japan Fund, T. Rowe Price Latin
America Fund and T. Rowe Price Emerging Markets Stock Fund containing the
information specified in paragraph (b)(1) of Rule 24f-2 under the Investment
Company Act of 1940 (the "Rule"). The effect of the Rule 24f-2 Notice, when
accompanied by this Opinion and by the filing fee, if any, payable as
prescribed by paragraph (c) of the Rule will be to make definite the number of
shares sold by the Corporation during the fiscal year ended October 31, 1995
in reliance upon the Rule, if any (the "Rule 24f-2 Shares").
We have, as counsel, participated in various corporate and other
proceedings relating to the Corporation and to the Rule 24f-2 Shares. We have
examined copies, either certified or otherwise proven to our satisfaction to
be genuine, of its Charter and By-Laws, as currently in effect, and a
certificate dated December 5, 1995 issued by the Department of Assessments and
Taxation of the State of Maryland certifying the existence and good standing
of the Corporation. We have also reviewed the Corporation's Registration
Statement on Form N-1A and the form of the Rule 24f-2 Notice being filed by
the Corporation. We are generally familiar with the corporate affairs of the
Corporation.
The Corporation has advised us that the Rule 24f-2 Shares were sold in
the manner contemplated by the prospectus of the Corporation that was current
and effective under the Securities Act of 1933 at the time of sale, and that
the Rule 24f-2 Shares were sold in numbers within the limits prescribed by the
Charter of the Corporation for a consideration not less than the par value
thereof as required by the laws of Maryland and not less than the net asset
value thereof as required by the Investment Company Act of 1940.
Based upon the foregoing, it is our opinion that:
1. The Corporation has been duly organized and is legally existing
under the laws of the State of Maryland.
2. The Corporation is authorized to issue one billion (1,000,000,000)
shares of Capital Stock, par value one cent ($.01) per share. Under Maryland
law, (a) the number of authorized shares may be increased or decreased by
action of the Board of Directors and (b) shares which were issued and which
have subsequently been redeemed by the Corporation are, by virtue of such
redemption, restored to the status of authorized and unissued shares.
3. The Rule 24f-2 Shares were legally issued and are fully paid and
non-assessable.
We hereby consent to the filing of this Opinion with the Securities and
Exchange Commission together with the Rule 24f-2 Notice of the Corporation,
and to the filing of this Opinion under the securities laws of any state.
We are members of the Bar of the State of New York and do not hold
ourselves out as being conversant with the laws of any jurisdiction other than
those of the United States of America and the State of New York. We note that
we are not licensed to practice law in the State of Maryland, and to the
extent that any opinion expressed herein involves the law of Maryland, such
opinion should be understood to be based solely upon our review of the
documents referred to above, the published statutes of that State and, where
applicable, published cases, rules or regulations of regulatory bodies of that
State.
Very truly yours,
/s/ Shereff, Friedman, Hoffman & Goodman, LLP
