Re: Life & Annuity Trust; Rule 24f-2 Notice
SEC File Nos. 33-70988; 811-8118
Ladies and Gentlemen:
Life & Annuity Trust (the "Trust") has requested our opinion
in connection with the issuance to unmanaged separate accounts by the Trust of
9,326,411 interests, in the aggregate, of its Asset Allocation, Growth and
Income, Money Market and U.S. Government Allocation Funds (collectively, 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
Trust and the authorization for registration and issuance of interests of each
Fund. The opinion given below only relates to the law of the State of
Delaware, the state in which the Trust was formed, and is subject to the
condition that the Trust is in compliance with the provisions of any applicable
laws, regulations and permits of any state or foreign country in which any
interests of each Fund are sold.
Based upon and subject to the foregoing, we are of the opinion
that:
The issuance of the above-referenced interests of each Fund to
the unmanaged separate accounts has been duly and validly authorized by all
appropriate action of the Trust, and assuming delivery by sale or in accord
with the Trust's dividend reinvestment plan in accordance with the description
set forth in the Funds' current prospectuses under the Securities Act of 1933,
the interests are legally issued, fully paid, and nonassessable.
