Mr. John Costello, Assistant Treasurer
Fidelity Advisor Series I
82 Devonshire Street
Boston, Massachusetts 02109
Dear Mr. Costello:
Fidelity Advisor Series I (the "Trust") (originally known as "Equity
Portfolio: Growth") is a Massachusetts business trust created under
a written Declaration of Trust dated and executed June 24, 1983,
and delivered in Boston, Massachusetts on June 27, 1983. An
Amended and Restated Declaration of Trust was dated and
executed October 26, 1984 and delivered in Boston, Massachusetts
on November 7, 1984. Supplements to the Declaration of Trust
have been executed and delivered in Boston, Massachusetts, on
March 20, 1987, November 30, 1990, January 8, 1992, and May 5,
1993, the last of which changed the Trust's name to Fidelity
Advisor Series I.
I have conducted such legal and factual inquiry as I have deemed
necessary for the purpose of rendering this opinion.
Capitalized terms used herein, and not otherwise herein defined, are
used as defined in the Declaration of Trust.
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 non assessable. 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 received by the trustees on account
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 of the trust 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 June 24, 1983 and amended on April 26,
1985, the Board of Trustees authorized the issue and sale, from
time to time, of an unlimited number of shares of beneficial interest
of the trust in accordance with the terms included in the current
Registration Statement 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 amount 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 95,569,827 shares of the trust (the "Shares") sold in reliance
upon Rule 24f-2 during the fiscal year ended November 30, 1996.
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 non assessable,
except as described in the funds' Statement of Additional
Information, dated August 30, 1996 under the heading "Description
of the Trusts." In rendering this opinion, I rely on the
representation by the trust that it or its agent received consideration
for the Shares in accordance with the 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.
Sincerely,
/s/ Arthur S. Loring
Arthur S. Loring
Vice President- Legal
