FUNDS IV Trust

New York, New York 10017

Dear Sirs:

        We refer to the Rule 24f-2 Notice (the "Rule 24f-2 Notice") with
respect to Post-Effective Amendment No. 4 (the "Post-Effective Amendment") to
the Registration Statement on Form N-1A relating to the shares of beneficial
interest, par value $1.00 per share, of FUNDS IV Trust, a Delaware business
trust (the "Trust").  The Post-Effective Amendment registered an indefinite
number of shares of beneficial interest of the Trust pursuant to Rule 24f-2
under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended.  The Rule 24f-2 Notice
makes definite the number of shares of beneficial interest of the Trust sold
that were so registered under the Post-Effective Amendment.

        We have examined and relied upon copies of the Post-Effective
Amendment and the Rule 24f-2 Notice and have examined and relied upon
originals, or copies certified to our satisfaction, of such corporate records,
documents, certificates and other instruments as in our judgment are necessary
or appropriate to enable us to render the opinion set forth below.

        Based on the foregoing, we are of the opinion that the shares of
beneficial interest of the Trust, the registration of which the Rule 24f-2
Notice makes definite in number, were duly authorized, legally issued, fully
paid and nonassessable.

        We hereby consent to the use of this opinion in connection with the
filing of the Rule 24f-2 Notice. In giving such consent, we do not thereby
admit that we come within the
