Re: Stagecoach Funds, Inc.; Rule 24f-2 Notice
SEC File Nos. 33-42927; 811-6419
-----------------------------------------
Ladies/Gentlemen:
Stagecoach Funds, Inc. (the "Company") has requested our opinion in
connection with the sale of 165,981,473 shares of the Company's funds (the
"Funds"). We understand that a copy of this opinion will be provided to the
Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to Rule 24f-2(b)(1) under the
Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended.
We have examined documents relating to the organization of the Company
and the authorization for registration and sale of shares of each of the Funds.
The opinion given below only relates to the laws of the State of Maryland, the
state of incorporation of the Company, and is subject to the condition that the
Company is in compliance with the provisions of any applicable laws,
regulations and permits of any state or foreign country in which any shares of
each Fund are sold. The opinion given below does not relate to the shares
issued by the portfolios of Pacifica Funds Trust that were predecessors to
certain Funds of the Company.
Based upon and subject to the foregoing, we are of the opinion that:
The issuance of the above-referenced shares of each Fund has been duly
and validly authorized by all appropriate corporate action, and assuming
delivery by sale or in accord with the Company's dividend reinvestment plan in
accordance with the description set forth in the Funds' current prospectuses
under the Securities Act of 1933, the shares were legally issued and are fully
paid and nonassessable.

Gentlemen:
As counsel for Pacifica Funds Trust (the "Trust") we are familiar with
the Trust's registration under the Investment Company Act of 1940 and with the
registration statement relating to its shares of beneficial interest under the
Securities Act of 1933 (File No. 2-92260) (the "Registration Statement"). This
opinion is being rendered with respect to certain of the Trust's Portfolios,
identified below, which were involved in a reorganization transaction with the
Stagecoach Funds, Inc. on September 6, 1996 (the "Reorganization") and the
shares of beneficial interest of these Portfolios (the "Covered Portfolio
Shares" or the "Shares"). These Portfolios consist of the Pacifica Arizona
Tax-Exempt Fund, Balanced Fund, Equity Value Fund, Government Money Market
Fund, Intermediate Bond Fund, Money Market Trust, National Tax-Exempt Fund,
Oregon Tax-Exempt Fund, Prime Money Market Fund and Treasury Money Market Fund
(the "Covered Portfolios"). This opinion is limited solely to the period of
time from October 1, 1995 through the closing of the Reorganization on
September 6, 1996 (the "Covered Period"), after which such date the Covered
Portfolios continued their operations as new series of Stagecoach Funds, Inc.
as a result of the Reorganization. In rendering this opinion we have examined
such records, agreements, documents and instruments of the Trust as we have
deemed appropriate.
Based upon the foregoing, it is our opinion with respect to the Covered
Portfolio Shares, the registration of which is being made definite by the
Notice pursuant to Rule 24f-2 under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the
"Notice") being filed by Stagecoach Funds, Inc., assuming such Shares were sold
at the public offering price and delivered by the Trust against receipt of the
net asset value of the Shares in compliance with the terms of the Trust's
Registration Statement and the requirements of applicable law, that, during the
Covered Period, such Covered
<PAGE> 6
Portfolio Shares were, when sold, legally issued, fully paid and non-assessable
by the Trust.
We consent to the filing of this opinion in connection with the Notice
on Form 24F-2 to be filed on behalf of Stagecoach Funds, Inc. with the
Securities and Exchange Commission.
Very truly yours,
/s/ DECHERT PRICE & RHOADS
