200 Berkeley Street
Boston, Massachusetts 02116-5034
Gentlemen:
I am Senior Vice President of and General Counsel to Keystone Investment
Management Company, investment adviser to Keystone International Fund Inc. (the
"Fund"). You have asked for my opinion with respect to the proposed issuance of
9,755,890 additional shares of the Fund.
To my knowledge, a Prospectus was filed with the Securities and Exchange
Commission (the "Commission") as part of Post-Effective Amendment No. 65 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 Organization, as amended ("Articles of
Organization"), By-Laws, as amended, 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 Organization and subject to the
limitations set forth therein.
My opinion is based upon my examination of the Fund's Articles of
Organization 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. 66 to the Fund's Registration Statement, which
covers the registration of such additional shares.
Very truly yours,
/s/ Rosemary D. Van Antwerp
Rosemary D. Van Antwerp
Senior Vice President and
General Counsel
