Gentlemen:
We have acted as counsel for you in connection with the
preparation of a Registration Statement on Form N-1A and amendments
thereto relating to the sale by you of an indefinite amount of Eastcliff
Funds, Inc. Series A Common Stock, $.01 par value, and Series B Common
Stock, $.01 par value, (such Common Stock being hereinafter referred to as
the "Stock"), in the manner set forth in the Registration Statement. In
this connection, we have examined: (a) the Registration Statement on Form
N-1A and all amendments thereto; (b) the Rule 24f-2 Notice for Eastcliff
Funds, Inc. dated August 27, 1996; (c) corporate proceedings relative to
the authorization for issuance of shares of the Stock; and (d) such other
proceedings, documents and records as we deemed necessary to enable us to
render this opinion.
Based on the foregoing, we are of the opinion that the shares of
Stock sold in the fiscal year ended June 30, 1996 in reliance upon
registration pursuant to Rule 24f-2 under the Investment Company Act of
1940 and in the manner set forth in the Registration Statement were
legally issued, fully paid and nonassessable except insofar as statutory
liability may be imposed under Section 180.0622(2)(b) of the Wisconsin
Statutes for unpaid wage claims of employees, not to exceed six months'
service in any one case. We have not examined the stock register books of
Eastcliff Funds, Inc. In opining that the shares of Stock sold in the
fiscal year ended June 30, 1996 were fully paid, we have relied upon a
certificate of an officer of Eastcliff Funds, Inc. as to the consideration
received for such shares.
We hereby consent to the use of this opinion in connection with
the filing of the Rule 24f-2 Notice for Eastcliff Funds, Inc. for its
fiscal year ended June 30, 1996. In giving this consent, we do not admit
that we are experts within the meaning of Section 11 of the Securities Act
of 1933, as amended, or within the category of persons whose consent is
required by Section 7 of said Act.
Very truly yours,
FOLEY & LARDNER
