Dear Ladies and Gentlemen:
You have requested our opinion as counsel to McM
Funds, a Delaware business trust (the "Trust"), with respect to
the shares of beneficial interest of the various series of the
Trust (the "Funds") sold by the Trust during its fiscal year
ended June 30, 1997 (respectively, the "Shares" and the "Fiscal
Year") in connection with the notice (the "Notice") being filed
by the Trust with the Securities and Exchange Commission
pursuant to Rule 24f-2 under the Investment Company Act of
1940, as amended (the "Act").
In connection with this opinion, we have assumed
the authenticity of all records, documents and instruments
submitted to us as originals, the genuineness of all
signatures, the legal capacity of all natural persons and the
conformity to the originals of all records, documents and
instruments submitted to us as copies. We have based our
opinion upon our review of the following, records, documents
and instruments:
(a) the Trust's Trust Instrument, dated February
3, 1994 as amended May 9, 1994 (the "Trust
Instrument"), and certified to us by an
officer of the Trust as being true and
complete and in effect throughout the Trust's
Fiscal Year;
(b) the Trust's Certificate of Trust as filed
with the Delaware Secretary of State on
February 15, 1994, and certified to us by an
officer of the Trust being true and complete
and in effect throughout the Fiscal Year;

(c) the By-laws of the Trust, as amended through the
date of the certificate identified in item (f)
below (the "By-laws"), and certified to us by an
officer of the Trust as being true and complete and
in effect throughout the Trust's Fiscal Year;
(d) the Funds' Prospectuses and Statements of
Additional Information effective during, the Fiscal
Year (collectively, the "Prospectuses");
(e) resolutions adopted by the Board of Trustees of the
Trust at meetings of the Board held on May 9, 1994,
March 13, 1995, September 18, 1995 and June 3,
1996, relating to: (1) the designation of the
series of the Trust of which the Shares are part
and issuance of the Shares, and (2) the approval
and ratification of the Prospectuses and Statements
of Additional Information of the Trust effective
during the Trust's Fiscal Year, in each case
certified to us as in effect without amendment or
modification through the date of the certificate
identified in item (f) below; and
(f) a certificate of an officer of the Trust dated
August 25, 1997 concerning certain factual matters.
In rendering our opinion below, we have assumed
that all of the Shares were issued and sold at no less than the
per share public offering price on the date of their issuance
in accordance with statements specified in the Funds'
then current Prospectus and in accordance with Article II of
the Trust Instrument. In rendering our opinion, we have assumed
that the Funds received, in cash or securities, an amount equal
to no less than the per share public offering price as
described in the Funds' then current Prospectus. We have not
conducted an independent examination of the books and records
of the Trust for the purpose of determining whether all of the
Shares were fully paid prior to their issuance and do not
believe it to be our obligation to do so.
Our opinion below is limited to the federal law of
the United States of America and the business trust law of the
State of Delaware. We are not licensed to practice law in the
State of Delaware, and we have braced our opinion below solely
on our review of Chapter 38 of Title 12 of the Delaware Code,
and the case law interpreting such Chapter as reported in
Delaware Code Annotated (Michie Co. 1996) and updated on
Westlaw through August 20, 1997. We have not undertaken a
review of other Delaware law or court decisions or of any
administrative decisions in connection with rendering this
opinion. We disclaim any opinion as to any law other than that
of the United States of America and the business trust law of
the State

of Delaware as described above, and we disclaim any opinion as
to any statute, rule, regulation, ordinance, order or other
promulgation of any regional or local governmental authority.
Based on the foregoing and our examination of such
questions of law as we have deemed necessary and appropriate
for the purpose of this opinion, we are of the opinion that the
Shares, as sold pursuant to registration under the Securities
Act of 1933, as amended, and Rule 24f-2 adopted under the Act,
were legally issued, fully paid and nonassessable.
We hereby consent to the filing of this opinion as
an exhibit to the Notice being filed by the Trust with the
Securities ant Exchange Commission.
This opinion is rendered to you in connection with
the Notice and is solely for your benefit. This opinion may not
be relied upon by you for any other purpose, or relied upon by
any other person, firm, corporation or other entity for any
purpose, without our prior written consent. We disclaim any
obligation to advise you of any developments in areas covered
by this opinion that occur after the date of this opinion.
Very truly yours,
/s/ Paul, Hastings,
