Ladies and Gentlemen:
You have informed us that you intend to file a Rule 24f-2 Notice (the
"Notice") with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "Commission")
pursuant to Rule 24f-2 (the "Rule") under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as
amended, making definite the registration of shares of beneficial interest in
the amount of $25,895,823,466.00, without par value (the "Shares"), of The One
Group(R) (the "Trust") sold in reliance upon the Rule during your fiscal year
ended June 30, 1997.
We have examined your Amended and Restated Agreement and Declaration of
Trust, as further amended, as on file at the office of the Secretary of The
Commonwealth of Massachusetts. We are familiar with the actions taken by your
Trustees to authorize the issue and sale from time to time of your shares of
beneficial interest at not less than the public offering price of such
shares and have assumed that the Shares have been issued and sold in accordance
with such action. We have also examined a copy of your Code of Regulations and
such other documents as we have deemed necessary for the purposes of this
opinion.
Based on the foregoing, we are of the opinion that the Shares have been
duly authorized and legally issued and are fully paid and non-assessable.
The Trust is an entity of the type commonly known as a "Massachusetts
business trust." Under Massachusetts law, shareholders could, under certain
circumstances, be held personally liable for the obligations of the Trust.
However, the Declaration of Trust disclaims shareholder liability for acts or
obligations of the Trust and requires that notice of such disclaimer be given in
each agreement, obligation or instrument entered into or executed by the Trust
or its Trustees. The Declaration of Trust provides for indemnification out of
the property of the Trust for all loss and expense of any shareholder of the
Trust held personally liable solely by reason of his being or having been a
shareholder. Thus, the risk of a shareholder incurring financial loss on account
of being a shareholder is limited to circumstances in which the Trust itself
would be unable to meet its obligations.
We consent to this opinion accompanying the Notice when filed with the
Commission.
Very truly yours,
/s/ ROPES & GRAY
