Dear Ladies and Gentlemen:
This opinion is given in connection with the filing by The Munder Funds,
Inc., a Maryland corporation, of Post-Effective Amendment No. 51 to the
Registration Statement on Form N-1A ("Registration Statement") under the
Securities Act of 1933, as amended ("1933 Act") and Amendment No. 51 under the
Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended ("1940 Act") relating to the shares
of common stock, par value of $.01 per share, of The Munder Digital Economy Fund
(the "Fund"). The shares of common stock of the Fund are hereinafter referred to
as the "Shares."
We have examined such matters in this regard, as we have deemed necessary,
including the pertinent provisions of the laws of the State of Maryland and
Post-Effective Amendment No. 51 to the Registration Statement and such other
corporate records, certificates, documents and statutes that we have deemed
relevant in order to render the opinion expressed herein.
Based on such examination, we are of the opinion that the Shares to be
offered for sale by The Munder Funds, Inc., when issued in the manner
contemplated by the Registration Statement, will be legally issued, fully paid
and non-assessable.
This letter expresses our opinion as to the Maryland corporation law
governing the authorization and issuance of the Shares, but does not extend to
the securities or "Blue Sky" laws of the State of Maryland or to federal
securities or other laws.
We consent to the use of this opinion as an exhibit to the Registration
Statement and to the reference to Dechert under the caption "Counsel" in the
Statement of Additional Information, which is incorporated by reference into the
Prospectus comprising a part of the Registration Statement.
Very truly yours,
/s/ DECHERT
