Ladies and Gentlemen:

RE:      RULE 24F-2 NOTICE FOR THE PIERPONT FUNDS FOR THE
         YEAR ENDED OCTOBER 31, 1995.


         This opinion is being  furnished in connection  with the  registration,
pursuant to Rule 24f-2 under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the
"1940 Act"), of an indefinite number of Shares of Beneficial Interest (par value
$0.001 per share) (the "Shares") of The Pierpont Funds, a Massachusetts business
trust (the  "Trust"),  under the  Securities  Act of 1933, as amended (the "1933
Act"). I understand that the Trust proposes to file a notice (the "Notice") with
the Securities and Exchange  Commission (the  "Commission")  with respect to the
Trust's  fiscal year ended  October 31, 1995,  pursuant to such Rule 24f-2 under
the 1940 Act. This opinion is being furnished with a view to your filing it with
the Commission in conjunction with the filing of the Notice.

         This  opinion  is  limited  solely to the laws of the  Commonwealth  of
Massachusetts as applied by courts in such Commonwealth. This opinion is limited
solely to the Shares of the Trust as of the fiscal  year ended  October 31, 1995
as  reflected in the Notice.  I  understand  that the  foregoing  limitation  is
acceptable to you.

         Based upon and subject to the  foregoing,  please be advised that it is
my opinion that the Shares covered by the Notice were legally issued and (to the
extent still outstanding) are fully paid and non-assessable, except that, as set
forth in the Trust's  registration  statement  as currently in effect filed with
the  Commission  pursuant to the 1933 Act,  shareholders  of the Trust may under
certain circumstances be held personally liable for its obligations.

                                                               Very truly yours,
                                                           /s/PHILIP W. COOLIDGE

                                                              Philip W. Coolidge
