         Re:      Oppenheimer Municipal Fund
                  Formerly Known as
                  Oppenheimer Tax-Exempt Fund

Gentlemen:

In connection  with the public offering of the no par value Class A, Class B and
Class C shares of the  Oppenheimer  Intermediate  Municipal  Fund series and the
Class A, Class B and Class C shares of the  Oppenheimer  Insured  Municipal Fund
series of Oppenheimer  Municipal Fund, a business trust organized under the laws
of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts (the "Trust"), as counsel for the Trust, we
have   examined   such  records  and   documents  and  have  made  such  further
investigation  and  examination  as we deem  necessary  for the purposes of this
opinion.

We are advised that during the fiscal  period  ended  September  30,  1996,  the
following  shares of  beneficial  interest in the Trust were sold in reliance on
the registration of an indefinite number of shares pursuant to Rule 24f-2 of the
Investment Company Act of 1940:

         Oppenheimer Insured Municipal Fund:

         Class A                    1,069,278
         Class B                      287,568
         Class C                       48,380

         Oppenheimer Intermediate Municipal Fund:

         Class A                      789,675
         Class B          193,861
         Class C                      261,430

It is our opinion that the said shares of beneficial interest of each series and
class of a series of the Trust sold in reliance on Rule 24f-2 of the  Investment
Company Act of 1940 are legally issued and, subject to the matters  mentioned in
the next paragraph, fully paid and nonassessable by the Trust.

Under   Massachusetts  law,   shareholders  of  the  Trust  may,  under  certain
circumstances,  be held personally liable as partners for the obligations of the
Trust. The Declaration of Trust does, however,  contain an express disclaimer of
shareholder  liability  for acts or  obligations  of the Trust and requires that
notice of such disclaimer be given in each agreement,  obligation, or instrument
entered into or executed by the Trust or the Trustees.  The Declaration of Trust
provides for  indemnification  out of the Trust property of any shareholder held
personally  liable for the  obligations of the Trust.  The  Declaration of Trust
also  provides  that the Trust shall,  upon  request,  assume the defense of any
claim made against any  shareholder  for any act or  obligation of the Trust and
satisfy any judgment thereon.

                                    Sincerely,



                                    MYER, SWANSON, ADAMS & Wolf, P.C.

                                            /s/ Allan B. Adams
                                    By_________________________________
