Re: Rule 24f-2 Notice for Warburg, Pincus New York Intermediate
Municipal Fund (Securities Act File No. 33-11075; Investment Company
Act File No. 811-4694)
Ladies and Gentlemen:
You have requested that we, as counsel to Warburg, Pincus New York
Intermediate Municipal Fund, a Massachusetts business trust (the "Fund"),
render an opinion in connection with the filing by the Fund of a notice
required by Rule 24f-2 (the "Rule") under the Investment Company Act of
1940, as amended (the "1940 Act"), on Form 24F-2 (the "Form"), for the
Fund's fiscal year ended October 31, 1995. We understand that the Fund
has previously filed a registration statement on Form N-1A under the
Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "1933 Act"), adopting the
declaration authorized by paragraph (a)(1) of the Rule to the effect that
an indefinite number of shares of beneficial interest in the Fund (the
"Shares") was being registered by such registration statement. The
effect of the Notice, when accompanied by the filing fee, if any, payable
as prescribed by paragraph (c) of the Rule and by this opinion, will be
to make definite in number the number of Shares sold by the Fund during
the fiscal year ended October 31, 1995 in reliance upon the Rule (the
"Rule 24f-2 Shares").
We have examined the Fund's Declaration of Trust, its By-Laws,
resolutions adopted by its Board of Trustees, and other records,
documents, papers, statutes and authorities as we have deemed necessary
to form a basis for the opinion hereinafter expressed. With respect to
matters of Massachusetts law, we have relied on the opinion of Messrs.
Sullivan & Worcester, a copy of which is attached hereto.
On the basis of the foregoing, and assuming compliance with the 1933 Act,
the 1940 Act and applicable state laws regulating the sale of securities,
and assuming further that all of the Rule 24f-2 Shares sold during the
fiscal year ended October 31, 1995 were sold in accordance with the terms
of the Fund's Prospectus and Statement of Additional Information in
effect at the time of sale at a sales price in each case in excess of the
par value of the Rule 24f-2 Shares, we are of the opinion that such Rule
24f-2 Shares were validly and legally issued, fully paid and non-
assessable by the Fund. We note, however, that shareholders of a
Massachusetts business trust may under certain circumstances be subject
to assessment at the instance of creditors to pay the obligations of such
trust in the event that its assets are insufficient for that purpose.
We hereby consent to the filing of this opinion with the Securities and
Exchange Commission in connection with the Notice.
Very truly yours,
WILLKIE FARR & GALLAGHER

Re: Warburg, Pincus New York Intermediate Municipal Fund: Notice
Pursuant to Rule 24f-2
Ladies and Gentlemen:
You have requested our opinion as to certain matters of Massachusetts
law related to the Notice (the "Notice") for the fiscal year ended October 31,
1995, which Warburg, Pincus New York Intermediate Municipal Fund, a
Massachusetts trust with transferable shares of several series (the "Trust"),
is to file pursuant to Rule 24f-2 under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as
amended.
The Trust was organized as "Counsellors New York Tax-Exempt Bond Fund"
under a Declaration of Trust dated December 23, 1986 (the "Original
Declaration"), which has been amended by Amendments dated February 18, 1987,
February 3, 1992, February 19, 1992 and February 6, 1995, and supplemented by
a Certificate of Designation of Series dated May 9, 1990 (the Original
Declaration, as so amended and supplemented, the "Declaration"). We observed
the execution and filing of the Original Declaration, and for purposes of this
opinion we have reviewed the actions taken by the Trustees of the Trust to
execute and file such Amendments and such Certificate of Designation, to
organize the Trust and to authorize the issuance and sale of shares of
beneficial interest, one mil ($.001) par value, of the several series
authorized by the Declaration (the "Shares"), and we have examined the
Declaration, the By-laws of the Trust, the Notice, the forms of the Prospectus
and the Statement of Additional Information presently included in the Trust's
Registration Statement on Form N-1A, certificates of public officials and of
Trustees and officers of the Trust as to matters of fact, and such other
documents and instruments, certified or otherwise identified to our
satisfaction, and such questions of law and fact, as we have considered
necessary or appropriate for purposes of the opinions expressed herein. We
have assumed the genuineness of the signatures on, and the authenticity of,
all documents furnished to us, and the conformity to the originals of
documents submitted to us as certified copies, which facts we have not
independently verified.
Based upon and subject to the foregoing, we hereby advise you that, in
our opinion, under the laws of The Commonwealth of Massachusetts:
1. The Trust is validly existing as a trust with transferable shares
of the type commonly called a Massachusetts business trust.
2. The Trust is authorized to issue an unlimited number of Shares;
the Shares issued by the Trust during the fiscal year ended October 31, 1995
(the "Issued Shares") have been duly and validly authorized by all requisite
action of the Trustees of the Trust, and no action of the shareholders of the
Trust is required in such connection.
3. The Issued Shares were validly and legally issued, and fully paid
and nonassessable by the Trust.
With respect to the opinion stated in paragraph 3 above, we wish to
point out that the shareholders of a Massachusetts business trust may under
some circumstances be subject to assessment at the instance of creditors to
pay the obligations of such trust in the event that its assets are
insufficient for the purpose.
This letter expresses our opinions as to the provisions of the
Declaration and the laws of The Commonwealth of Massachusetts applying to
business trusts generally, but does not extend to the Massachusetts Securities
Act, or to federal securities or other laws.
We hereby consent to the filing of this opinion with the Securities and
Exchange Commission, together with the Notice. In giving such consent, we do
not thereby concede that we come within the category of persons whose consent
is required under Section 7 of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.
Very truly yours,
