I am familiar with the proceedings taken by you in connection with the
authorization, issuance and sale of the Shares. Based upon my examination and
upon my knowledge of your corporate activities, and assuming, without
independent verification, that the Shares were sold in compliance with
applicable Blue Sky laws and in the manner referred to in your Registration
Statement on Form N-1A filed under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, it is
my opinion that the Shares constituted validly issued, fully paid and
nonassessable shares of your Common Stock.
I am a member of the bars of Maryland and New Jersey.
