We are familiar with the actions taken by the Trustees of the Trust to authorize the issuance of the Shares. We have examined the Trust's Certificate of Trust (as on file in the office of the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware), its Agreement and Declaration of Trust, as amended, its Bylaws and such other documents as we deemed necessary for the purposes of this opinion. We assume that upon sale of the Shares by the Trust the Trust will receive the net asset value thereof.

We consent to the filing of this opinion as an exhibit to the Post-Effective Amendment.

Very truly yours,
