Re: Rule 24f-2 Notice for Warburg, Pincus International Equity Fund, Inc. -
Advisor Shares (Securities Act File No. 33-27031; Investment Company Act
File No. 811-5765)
Ladies and Gentlemen:
You have requested that we, as counsel to Warburg, Pincus International
Equity Fund, Inc., a Maryland corporation (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 common stock of the Fund
designated Common Stock - Series 2 (the "Advisor 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 Advisor
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 Articles of Incorporation, its By-Laws,
resolutions adopted by its Board of Directors, and other records, documents,
papers, statutes and authorities as we have deemed necessary to form a basis
for the opinion hereinafter expressed.
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 are members of the Bar of the State of New York and do not hold ourselves
out as being conversant with the laws of any jurisdiction other than those of
the United States of America and the State of New York. We note that we are
not licensed to practice law in the State of Maryland, and to the extent that
any opinion expressed herein involves the law of Maryland, such opinion should
be understood to be based solely upon our review of the documents referred to
above, the published statues of that state, and where applicable, published
cases, rules or regulations of regulatory bodies of that state.
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
