Nations Institutional Reserves

               Re:  Issuance  and  Sale of  Shares  of  Beneficial  Interest  of
                    Nations  Institutional  Reserves;  Registration on Form N-1A
                    Pursuant to Rule 24f-2

Ladies and Gentlemen:

         Nations Institutional  Reserves (the "Trust") has requested our opinion
in  connection  with the  issuance  by the  Trust  of  5,577,932,023  shares  of
beneficial interest (the "Shares"),  in the aggregate,  of all classes of Shares
of all Portfolios of the Trust (collectively, the "Funds").

         We have examined  documents  relating to the  organization of the Trust
and the  authorization for registration and sale of Shares of each of the Funds.
The  opinion  given  below  only  relates  to the  law of  the  Commonwealth  of
Massachusetts,  the laws under which the Trust was organized,  and is subject to
the  condition  that the  Trust is in  compliance  with  the  provisions  of any
applicable  laws,  regulations  and  permits of any state or foreign  country in
which any Shares of any of the Funds are sold.

         Based upon and subject to the foregoing, we are of the opinion that:

         The  issuance  and sale of the  Shares by the Trust  have been duly and
validly  authorized by all appropriate  action and, assuming delivery by sale or
in accord with the Funds' dividend  reinvestment plan was in accordance with the
description set forth in the Trust's current  prospectuses  under the Securities
Act  of  1933,  the  Shares  have  been  legally  issued,  fully  paid  and  are
non-assessable.



<PAGE>



         We  consent  to  the  submission  of a  copy  of  this  opinion  to the
Securities and Exchange  Commission in connection with the filing of the Trust's
Rule 24f-2  Notice,  as amended,  under the  Investment  Company Act of 1940, as
amended.


                                                Very truly yours,

                                                /s/ MORRISON & FOERSTER LLP

                                                MORRISON & FOERSTER LLP
