Keystone International Fund Inc.
200 Berkeley Street
Boston, Massachusetts 02116-5034
Gentlemen:
I am a Senior Vice President of and General Counsel to Keystone
Investment Management Company (formerly named Keystone Custodian Funds, Inc.),
investment adviser to Keystone International Fund Inc. (the "Fund"). You have
asked for my opinion with respect to the proposed issuance of 6,262,176
additional shares of the Fund.
To my knowledge, a Prospectus is on file with the Securities and
Exchange Commission (the "Commission") as part of Post-Effective Amendment No.
61 to the Fund's Registration Statement, which covers the public offering and
sale of the Fund shares currently registered with the Commission.
In my opinion, such additional shares, if issued and sold in accordance
with the Fund's Articles of Incorporation and offering Prospectus, will be
legally issued, fully paid, and nonassessable by the Fund, entitling the holders
thereof to the rights set forth in the Articles of Incorporation and subject to
the limitations set forth therein.
My opinion is based upon my examination of the Fund's Articles of
Incorporation and By-Laws; a review of the minutes of the Fund's Board of
Directors authorizing the issuance of such additional shares; and the Fund's
Prospectus. In my examination of such documents, I have assumed the genuineness
of all signatures and the conformity of copies to originals.
I hereby consent to the use of this opinion in connection with
Post-Effective Amendment No. 62 to the Fund's Registration Statement, which
covers the registration of such additional shares.
Very truly yours,
Rosmary D. Van Antwerp
Senior Vice President and
General Counsel
