Re: Rule 24f-2 Notice for MetLife-State Street Income Trust
1933 Act File No. 33-2697
1940 Act File No. 811-4559
Gentlemen:
As counsel to MetLife-State Street Income Trust (the "Trust") we have been
requested to render this opinion in connection with the filing by the Trust of
a Rule 24f-2 Notice with respect to its fiscal year ended March 31, 1995.
Reference is made to paragraph 5 of such Notice and the footnote thereto
wherein the Trust reports the number of shares (the "Shares") representing
interests in the MetLife-State Street Research High Income Fund, MetLife-State
Street Research Government Securities Fund and MetLife-State Street Research
Managed Assets series of the Trust sold during the fiscal year ended March 31,
1995, in reliance upon Rule 24f-2 under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as
amended.
We have examined the Trust's First Amended and Restated Master Trust Agreement
dated June 1, 1993, the By-Laws of the Trust, as amended, the Rule 24f-2 Notice
of the Trust dated May 26, 1995, certain resolutions adopted by the Trustees of
the Trust, and such other documents as we deemed necessary for purposes of this
opinion.
We are attorneys admitted to practice in The Commonwealth of Massachusetts. We
express no opinion concerning the laws of any jurisdiction other than the laws
of The Commonwealth of Massachusetts.
Based upon the foregoing, and assuming that all of the Shares were sold, issued
and paid for in accordance with the terms of the applicable Prospectus and
Statement of Additional Information contained in the Trust's Registration
Statement on Form N-1A in effect at the time of sale, in our opinion the shares
were legally issued and fully paid and non-assessable by the Trust.
Very truly yours,
[Signature Goodwin, Procter & Hoar]
