Nations Fund Trust

Little Rock, AR 72201
Re: Issuance and Sale of Shares of Beneficial Interest
of Nations Fund Trust; Registration on Form N-1A
Pursuant to Rule 24f-2
Ladies and Gentlemen:
Nations Fund Trust (the "Trust") has requested our opinion in
connection with the sale or issuance by the Trust of 1,539,238,253 shares of
beneficial interest (the "Shares"), in the aggregate, of all classes of Shares
of all portfolios of the Trust (collectively, the "Funds").
We have examined documents relating to the organization of the
Trust and the authorization for registration and sale of Shares of each of the
Funds. The opinion given below only relates to the law of the Commonwealth of
Massachusetts, the laws under which the Trust was organized, and is subject to
the condition that the Trust is in compliance with the provisions of any
applicable laws, regulations and permits of any state or foreign country in
which any Shares of any of the Funds are sold.
Based upon and subject to the foregoing, we are of the opinion
that:
The issuance and sale of the Shares by the Trust have been duly
and validly authorized by all appropriate action and, assuming delivery by sale
or in accord with the Funds' dividend reinvestment plan was in accordance with
the description set forth in the Trust's current prospectuses under the
Securities Act of 1933, the Shares have been legally issued, fully paid and are
non-assessable.
We consent to the submission of a copy of this opinion to the
Securities and Exchange Commission in connection with the filing of the Trust's
Rule 24f-2 Notice, as amended, under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as
amended.
Very truly yours,
/s/ MORRISON & FOERSTER LLP
