Re: The Chapman Funds, Inc.
Ladies and Gentlemen:
We understand that The Chapman Funds, Inc., a
Maryland corporation (the "Company"), is about to file a
Rule 24f-2 Notice with the Securities and Exchange
Commission (the "SEC") pursuant to Rule 24f-2 under the
Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, making definite
the registration of 14,227,088 shares of The Chapman US
Treasury Money Fund common stock, par value $.001 per share
(the "Shares"), of the Company sold pursuant to Rule 24f-2
during the Fund's fiscal year ended October 31, 1995.
We are acting as counsel for the Company and have
examined its Charter and Bylaws and the Prospectuses and
Statement of Additional Information included in its
Registration Statement on Form N-1A, as amended (the
"Prospectuses"), and have examined and relied upon such
corporate records of the Company and other documents and
certificates as to factual matters as we deem necessary for
the purpose of this opinion.
We have relied on a certificate of an officer of
the Company that (i) the number of Shares of each series and
class of the Company issued and outstanding at any time
during the fiscal year ended October 31, 1995 did not exceed
the number of Shares of each of the series and classes,
respectively, authorized in the Company's Charter, and
(ii) the Company or its authorized agent received the
authorized payment for the Shares and the Shares were issued
in accordance with the terms described in the Prospectuses.
We have assumed, without independent verification, the
genuineness of signatures on, and the authenticity of, all
documents furnished to us and the conformity of copies to
the originals.
<PAGE>
Based upon the foregoing, we are of the opinion
that the Shares, when issued, were validly and legally
issued and fully paid and nonassessable under the laws of
the State of Maryland.
This letter expresses our opinion as to the
Maryland General Corporation Law governing matters such as
the authorization and issuance of stock, but does not extend
to the securities or "blue sky" laws of Maryland, to federal
securities or to other laws.
We consent to the filing of this opinion as an
exhibit to the Company's Rule 24f-2 Notice. This opinion
may not be relied upon by any other person or for any other
purpose without our prior written consent.
Very truly yours,
/s/ VENABLE, BAETJER AND HOWARD,
LLP
