Waterhouse Investors Cash Management Fund, Inc.

New York, New York 10005
Ladies and Gentlemen:
Waterhouse Investors Cash Management Fund, Inc. (the "Fund"), a Maryland
corporation, is filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the
"Commission") a Rule 24f-2 Notice (the "Rule 24f-2 Notice") containing the
information contained in paragraph (b)(1) of Rule 24f-2 (the "Rule") under the
Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "1940 Act"). The effect of the
Rule 24f-2 Notice, when accompanied by the filing fee, if any, payable as
prescribed by paragraph (c) of the Rule, and by this Opinion, will be to make
definite in number the number of shares sold by the Fund during the fiscal year
ended October 31, 1996 in reliance upon the Rule (the "Rule 24f-2 Shares").
We have, as counsel to the Fund, participated in various proceedings
relating to the Fund and to the Rule 24f-2 Shares. We have examined copies,
either certified or otherwise proven to our satisfaction to be genuine, of the
Fund's Articles of Incorporation and By-laws, as currently in effect, and
minutes of meetings of its Board of Directors. We have received oral
confirmation from the Department of Assessments and Taxation of the State of
Maryland that the Fund is in existence and would be in good standing but for the
fact that the Fund has not yet filed a 1996 Personal Property Tax Return. We
have also reviewed the form of the Rule 24f-2 Notice being filed by the Fund. We
are generally familiar with the business affairs of the Fund.
The Fund has advised us that the Rule 24f-2 Shares were sold in the manner
contemplated by the prospectus of the Fund current at the time of each sale, and
that the Rule 24f-2 Shares were sold in number within the limits prescribed by
the Fund's Articles of Incorporation for consideration not less than the par
value thereof and the net asset value thereof as required by the 1940 Act.

Based upon the foregoing, it is our opinion that:
1. The Fund has been duly organized and is legally existing under the
laws of the State of Maryland.
2. The Fund is authorized by its Articles of Incorporation to issue one
hundred billion (100,000,000,000) shares of common stock. Under
Maryland law, shares which were issued and which have subsequently been
redeemed by the Fund 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 Fund, 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 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 the State of Maryland and, where applicable,
published cases, rules or regulations of regulatory bodies of that State.
Very truly yours,
/s/ Shereff, Friedman, Hoffman & Goodman, LLP
