Re: Rule 24f-2 Notice for USAA TAX EXEMPT FUND, INC.
1933 Act File No. 2-75093
Gentlemen:
As counsel to USAA Tax Exempt Fund, Inc., a Maryland corporation (the
"Registrant"), we have been requested to render this opinion in connection
with the filing by the Registrant of a Rule 24f-2 Notice on Form 24F-2 with
respect to its fiscal year ended March 31, 1996 (the "Notice").
Reference is made to Item 10 of the Notice wherein the Registrant reports
the number of shares (the "Shares") of capital stock representing interests in
the Long-Term Fund, Intermediate-Term Fund, Short-Term Fund, Tax Exempt Money
Market Fund, California Bond Fund, California Money Market Fund, New York Bond
Fund, New York Money Market Fund, Virginia Bond Fund and Virginia Money Market
Fund series of the Registrant sold during the fiscal year ended March 31, 1996
in reliance upon Rule 24f-2 under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as
amended.
We have examined the Registrant's Articles of Incorporation, as amended,
the By-Laws of the Registrant, as amended, the Notice, certain resolutions
adopted by the Directors of the Registrant, and such other documents as we
deemed necessary for purposes of this opinion.
Based upon the foregoing, and assuming that all of the shares were sold,
issued and paid for in accordance with the terms of the applicable Prospectus
and Statement of Additional Information contained in the Registrant's
Registration Statement on Form N-1A in effect at the time of sale, in our
opinion the Shares were legally issued and are fully paid and non-assessable.
Very truly yours,
GOODWIN, PROCTER & HOAR LLP
