ITEM 9.  UNDERTAKINGS

         (a)     The Company undertakes:

                 (1)      To file, during any period in which offers or sales
                 are being made, a post-effective amendment to this
                 registration statement:

                           (i)    To include any prospectus required by Section 
                                  10(a)(3) of the Securities Act of 1933;

                          (ii)    To reflect in the prospectus any facts or
                                  events arising after the effective date of
                                  the registration statement (or the most
                                  recent post-effective amendment thereof)
                                  which, individually or in the aggregate,
                                  represent a fundamental change in the
                                  information set forth in the registration
                                  statement; and

                          (iii)   To include any material information with
                                  respect to the plan of distribution not
                                  previously disclosed in the registration
                                  statement or any material change to such
                                  information in the registration statement;

                 provided, however, that paragraphs (1)(i) and (ii) above do
                 not apply if the information required to be included in a
                 post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is contained in
                 periodic reports filed with or furnished to the Commission by
                 the Company pursuant to Section 13 or 15(d) of the Securities
                 Exchange Act of 1934 that are incorporated by reference in the
                 registration statement.

                 (2)      That for the purpose of determining liability under
                 the Securities Act of 1933, each such post-effective amendment
                 shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to
                 the securities offered therein, and the offering of such
                 securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial
                 bona fide offering thereof.



                                      II-3
<PAGE>   5
                 (3)      To remove from registration by means of a
                 post-effective amendment any of the securities being
                 registered which remain unsold at the termination of the
                 offering.

         (b)     The Company hereby undertakes that, for purposes of
determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each filing of the
Company's annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934 (and, where applicable, each filing of an employee benefit
plan's annual report pursuant to Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act
of 1934) that is incorporated by reference in the registration statement shall
be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered
therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be
the initial bona fide offering thereof.

         (c)     Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the
Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling
persons of the Company pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the
Company has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange
Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the
Act and is, therefore, unenforceable.  In the event that a claim for
indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the Company
of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of
the Company in the successful defense of any action suit or proceeding) is
asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the
securities being registered, the Company will, unless in the opinion of its
counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court
of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is
against public policy as expressed in the Act and will be governed by the final
adjudication of such issue.

         (d)     The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes to deliver or
cause to be delivered with the prospectus, to each person to whom the
prospectus is sent or given, the latest annual report to security holders that
is incorporated by reference in the prospectus and furnished pursuant to and
meeting the requirements of Rule 14a-3 or rule 14c-3 under the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934; and, where interim financial information required to be
presented by Article 3 of Regulation S-X are not set forth in the prospectus,
to deliver, or cause to be delivered to each person to whom the prospectus is
sent or given, the latest quarterly report that is specifically incorporated by
reference in the prospectus to provide such interim financial information.

     Re:  Registration Statement on Form S-8 of INTEK Diversified Corporation

Ladies and Gentlemen:

     INTEK Diversified Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the  "Company"), is
filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission a registration statement on
Form S-8 (the "Registration Statement"), under the Securities Act of 1933, as
amended (the "Act").  The Registration Statement relates to the offering and 
sale by the Company of up to 900,000 shares (the "Shares") of the Company's 
common stock, par value $0.01 per share (the "Common Stock"), pursuant to stock 
options ("Options") granted or to be granted under the INTEK Diversified 
Corporation 1994 Stock Option Plan and the INTEK Diversified Corporation 
Directors' 1994 Stock Option Plan (together, the  "Plans").  We have acted as 
counsel to the Company in connection with the preparation and filing of the 
Registration Statement.  Capitalized terms used in this opinion letter and not 
otherwise defined have the meanings attributed to them in the Registration 
Statement.

     In connection with this opinion letter, we have examined and relied upon
the original or a copy, certified to our satisfaction, of (i) the Certificate
of Incorporation and the Bylaws of the Company; (ii) resolutions of the Board
of Directors of the Company authorizing the Plans and related matters; (iii)
resolutions of the stockholders of the Company authorizing the Plans; (iv) the
Plans; and (v) such other documents and instruments as we have deemed necessary
for providing this opinion letter.

     We have assumed the genuineness of all signatures, the authenticity of all
documents submitted to us as originals and the conformity to original documents
of all documents submitted to us as certified or photostatic copies.  We have
made such investigations of law as we deem appropriate as a basis for rendering
the opinions expressed below, and as to various questions of fact material to
the opinions, we have relied, to the extent we deem appropriate, upon
representations or

certificates of officers or directors of the Company and upon documents,
records and instruments furnished to us by the Company, without independently
verifying the accuracy of such documents, records and instruments.

     Based upon the foregoing examination, we are of the opinion that (i) the
Company presently has at least 900,000 authorized and unissued shares of Common
Stock from which the 900,000 Shares proposed to be sold pursuant to the
exercise of Options granted under the Plans may be issued, and (ii) assuming
(a) the Company maintains an adequate number of authorized but unissued Shares
and treasury Shares available for issuance to those persons who exercise
Options granted in accordance with the Plans and (b) the Shares are duly
delivered against payment therefor in accordance with the terms of the Plans,
the Shares issued pursuant to the exercise of Options granted in accordance
with the Plans will be validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable.

     We express no opinion other than as to the Federal law of the United
States and the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware.

     We hereby consent to the filing of this opinion as an exhibit to the
Registration Statement.  In giving such consent, we do not admit that we come
within the category of persons whose consent is required by Section 7 of the
Act or the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission
thereunder.
