Ladies and Gentlemen:
At your request, we have examined the form of Rule 24f-2 Notice
(the "Notice") proposed to be filed by you with the Securities and Exchange
Commission. The Notice states that during the fiscal year ended November 30,
1995, you issued and sold 2,996,575 shares of beneficial interest, $.01 par
value (the "Shares"), in reliance upon your registration of an indefinite
number of shares pursuant to Rule 24f-2 under the Investment Company Act of
1940, as amended. We are familiar with the proceedings taken by you in
connection with the authorization, issuance and sale of the Shares.
Based upon our examination and upon our knowledge of your business
trust activities, and assuming, without independent verification, that the
Shares were sold in compliance with applicable Blue Sky laws and in the manner
referred to in your Registration Statement on Form N-1A filed under the
Securities Act of 1933, it is our opinion that the Shares are validly issued,
fully paid and nonassessable.
We consent to the filing of this opinion as an exhibit to the
Notice.
Respectfully submitted,
/s/ 0'MELVENY & MYERS
