Baltimore, Maryland 21202
Dear Sirs:
T. Rowe Price Summit Funds, Inc., a Maryland corporation (the
"Corporation") is filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission a Rule
24f-2 Notice on behalf of T. Rowe Price Summit Cash Reserves Fund, T. Rowe
Price Summit Limited-Term Bond Fund and T. Rowe Price Summit GNMA Fund,
containing the information specified in paragraph (b)(1) of Rule 24f-2 under
the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the "Rule"). The effect of the Rule 24f-2
Notice, when accompanied by this opinion and by the filing fee, if any,
payable as prescribed by paragraph (c) of the Rule will be to make definite
the number of shares sold by the Corporation during the fiscal year ending
October 31, 1996 in reliance upon the Rule, if any (the "Rule 24f-2 Shares").
We have, as counsel, participated in various corporate and other
proceedings relating to the Corporation and to the Rule 24f-2 Shares. We
have examined copies, either certified or otherwise proven to our
satisfaction to be genuine, of its Charter and By-Laws, as currently in
effect, and a certificate dated December 12, 1996, issued by the Department
of Assessments and Taxation of the State of Maryland, certifying the
existence and good standing of the Corporation. We have also reviewed the
Corporation's Registration Statement on Form N-1A and the form of the Rule
24f-2 Notice being filed by the Corporation. We are generally familiar with
the corporate affairs of the Corporation.
The Corporation has advised us that the Rule 24f-2 Shares were sold in
the manner contemplated by the prospectus of the Corporation that was current
and effective under the Securities Act of 1933 at the time of sale, and that
the Rule 24f-2 Shares were sold in numbers within the limits prescribed by
the Charter of the Corporation for a consideration not less than the par
value thereof as required by the laws of Maryland and not less than the net
asset value thereof as required by the Investment Company Act of 1940.
Based upon the foregoing, it is our opinion that:
1. The Corporation has been duly organized and is legally existing
under the laws of the State of Maryland.
2. The Corporation is authorized to issue one billion
(1,000,000,000) shares of Capital Stock, par value one cent
($.01) per share. Under Maryland law, (i) the number of
authorized shares may be increased or decreased by action of the
Board of Directors and (ii) shares which were issued and which
have subsequently been redeemed by the Corporation are, by virtue
of such redemption, restored to the status of authorized and
unissued shares.
3. The Rule 24f-2 Shares were legally issued and are fully paid and
non-assessable.
We hereby consent to the filing of this Opinion with the Securities and
Exchange Commission together with the Rule 24f-2 Notice of the Corporation,
and to the filing of this Opinion under the securities laws of any state.
We are members of the Bar of the State of New York and do not hold
ourselves out as being conversant with the laws of any jurisdiction other
than those of the United States of America and the State of New York. We
note that we are not licensed to practice law in the State of Maryland, and
to the extent that any opinion expressed herein involves the law of Maryland,
such opinion should be understood to be based solely upon our review of the
documents referred to above, the published statutes of that State and, where
applicable, published cases, rules or regulations of regulatory bodies of
that State.
Very truly yours,
Shereff, Friedman, Hoffman & Goodman, LLP
