Mr. John Costello, Assistant Treasurer
Fidelity Hastings Street Trust (the trust):
Fidelity Fifty
Fidelity Fund (the funds)
82 Devonshire Street
Boston, Massachusetts 02109
Dear Mr. Costello:
Fidelity Fund, Inc. was a corporation organized under the laws of
the Commonwealth of Massachusetts on May 1, 1930. It was
reorganized as a Massachusetts business trust and its name was
changed to Fidelity Fund under a written Declaration of Trust dated
September 27, 1984, executed and delivered in Boston,
Massachusetts on October 1, 1984. Supplements to the
Declaration of Trust were filed with the Secretary of the
Commonwealth on February 1, 1985 and February 23, 1990. The
trust's name was changed to Fidelity Hastings Street Trust by a
Supplement to the Declaration of Trust executed on April 26, 1993,
and delivered in Boston, Massachusetts on April 29, 1993.
I have conducted such legal and factual inquiry as I deem necessary
for the purpose of rendering this opinion.
Under Article III, Section 1, of the Declaration of Trust, the
beneficial interest in the trust shall be divided into such transferable
Shares of one or more separate and distinct Series as the Trustees
shall from time to time create and establish. The number of Shares
is unlimited and each Share shall be without par value and shall be
fully paid and nonassessable. The Trustees shall have full power
and authority, in their sole discretion and without obtaining any
prior authorization or vote of the Shareholders of the trust, to
create and establish (and to change in any manner) Shares with such
preferences, voting powers, rights and privileges as the Trustees
may from time to time determine, to divide or combine the Shares
into a greater or lesser number, to classify or reclassify any issued
Shares into one or more Series of Shares, to abolish any one or
more Series of Shares, and to take such other action with respect to
the Shares as the Trustees may deem desirable.
Under Article III, Section 4, the Trustees shall accept investments
in the trust from such persons and on such terms as they may from
time to time authorize. Such investments may be in the form of
cash or securities in which the appropriate Series is authorized to
invest, valued as provided in Article X, Section 3. After the date of
the initial contribution of capital, the number of Shares to represent
the initial contribution may in the Trustees' discretion be considered
as outstanding and the amount of the contribution shall be treated
as an asset of the trust. Subsequent investments in the trust shall be
credited to each Shareholder's account in the form of full Shares at
the Net Asset Value per Share next determined after the investment
is received; provided, however, that the Trustees may, in their sole
discretion, (a) impose a sales charge upon investments in the trust
and (b) issue fractional Shares.
By a vote adopted on December 14, 1984 and amended on
February 22, 1985, the Board of Trustees authorized the issue and
sale, from time to time, of an unlimited number of shares of
beneficial interest of this trust in accordance with the terms included
in the Registration Statements and subject to the limitations of the
Declaration of Trust and any amendments thereto.
I understand from you that, pursuant to Rule 24f-2 under the
Investment Company Act of 1940, the trust has registered an
indefinite number of shares of beneficial interest under the
Securities Act of 1933. I further understand that, pursuant to the
provisions of Rule 24f-2, the trust intends to file with the Securities
and Exchange Commission a Notice making definite the registration
of 30,645,558 shares of the trust (the Shares) sold in reliance upon
Rule 24f-2 during the fiscal year ended June 30, 1994.
I am of the opinion that all necessary trust action precedent to the
issue of Shares has been duly taken, and that all the Shares were
legally and validly issued, and are fully paid and nonassessable
except as described in each fund's Statement of Additional
Information under the heading "Shareholder and Trustee Liability."
In rendering this opinion, I rely on the representation by the trust
that it or its agents received consideration for the Shares in
accordance with the trust's Declaration of Trust, and I express no
opinion as to compliance with the Securities Act of 1933, the
Investment Company Act of 1940, or applicable state "Blue Sky" or
securities laws in connection with sales of the Shares.
I hereby consent to the filing of this opinion with the Securities and
Exchange Commission in connection with a Rule 24f-2 Notice
which you are about to file under the 1940 Act with said
commission.
Very truly yours,
/s/ Arther S. Loring
