(File No. 811-3129), were issued and paid for in accordance with
the terms of the offering, as set forth in the prospectus filed as

were legally issued, fully paid and non-assessable by the Fund.
I hereby consent to the filing of this opinion as an exhibit

do not thereby admit that I am within the category of persons whose
