Keystone Precious Metals Holdings, 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 Precious Metals Holdings, Inc. (the "Fund"). You
have asked for my opinion with respect to the proposed issuance of 6,068,320
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.
19 to the Fund's Registration Statement, which covers the public offering and
sale of the shares of the Fund currently registered with the Commission.
In my opinion, such additional shares, when issued and sold in
accordance with the Fund's Certificate of Incorporation, as amended,
("Certificate 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 Certificate of Incorporation and subject to the
limitations set forth therein.
My opinion is based upon my examination of the Fund's Certificate of
Incorporation and By-Laws, as amended; 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. 20 to the Fund's Registration Statement, which
covers the registration of such additional shares.
Sincerely yours,
Rosemary D. Van Antwerp
Senior Vice Presdient and
General Counsel
