ITEM 9. UNDERTAKINGS

          (a)  Rule 415 Offering.

         The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes:

          1. To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made,
     a post-effective amendment to this registration statement:

              (iii)  To include any  material  information  with  respect to the
                     plan  of  distribution  not  previously  disclosed  in  the

                     information in the registration statement.

         2.  That,  for the  purpose  of  determining  any  liability  under the
Securities Act of 1933, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be
a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the
offering of such  securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona
fide  offering   thereof.3.   To  remove  from   registration   by  means  of  a
post-effective  amendment any of the securities  being  registered  which remain
unsold at the termination of the offering.

         (b)  Filings   Incorporating   Subsequent  Exchange  Act  Documents  by
Reference.
<PAGE>
         The  undersigned  Registrant  hereby  undertakes  that, for purposes of
determining  any liability  under the Securities Act of 1933, each filing of the
Registrant's  annual  report  pursuant to section  13(a) or section 15(d) of the
Securities  Exchange  Act of 1934  (and,  where  applicable,  each  filing of an
employee  benefit  plan's  annual  report  pursuant  to  section  15(d)  of  the
Securities  Exchange  Act of 1934)  that is  incorporated  by  reference  in the
registration  statement  shall  be  deemed  to be a new  registration  statement
relating to the securities offered therein,  and the offering of such securities
at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

         (h) Filing of Registration Statement on Form S-8.

         Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities
Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors,  officers and controlling  persons of
the  Registrant  pursuant  to  the  foregoing  provisions,   or  otherwise,  the
Registrant  has been advised that in the opinion of the  Securities and Exchange
Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Act
and is, therefore,  unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification
against such  liabilities  (other than the payment by the Registrant of expenses
incurred or paid by a director,  officer or controlling person of the Registrant
in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such
director,  officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being
registered, the Registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter
has been  settled by  controlling  precedent,  submit to a court of  appropriate
jurisdiction the question whether such  indemnification  by it is against public
policy as expressed in the Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of
such issue.

     Re:  Registration of Shares on Amended Form S-8

Dear Sirs:

         Our firm represents Baywood  International,  Inc., a Nevada corporation
(the "Company"),  in connection with the Company's registration of eight hundred
thousand (800,000) shares of Common Stock, $.001 par value (the "Common Stock"),
to be issued by the  Company  from time to time  pursuant  to its  Employee  and
Consultant Stock Compensation Plan (the "Plan").

         In this connection,  we have examined originals or copies (certified or
otherwise) of such  documents,  corporate and other  records,  certificates  and
other papers which we deemed necessary for the purpose of this opinion. Based on
such  examination,  it is our  opinion  that  the  shares  of the  Common  Stock
registered  under  the  Registration  Statement  on Form S-8 (the  "Registration
Statement")  will, when issued  pursuant to the Plan, be legally  issued,  fully
paid and non-assessable.

         In giving  our  opinion,  we have  assumed  without  investigation  the
authenticity of any document or instrument  submitted to us as an original,  the
conformity  to the original of any document or  instrument  submitted to us as a
copy, and the  genuineness  of all  signatures on such originals or copies.  Our
opinion is subject to the  qualification  that no opinion is expressed as to the
application of any individual state's securities or Blue Sky laws.

         This  Opinion  is  furnished  by us as counsel to you and is solely for
your benefit,  to be used as an exhibit to the Registration  Statement.  Neither
this Opinion nor copies hereof may be otherwise relied upon by, delivered to, or
quoted in whole or in part to any  governmental  agency or other person  without
our prior written consent.

Opinion in connection with the above-referenced registration.

                                      Very truly yours,
