Re:Shares Registered by Post-Effective Amendment No. 362 to
  Registration Statement on Form N-1A (File No. 033-20827)

 

Ladies and Gentlemen:

 

We have acted as counsel to The RBB Fund, Inc. (the “Company”) in connection with the preparation and filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission of Post-Effective Amendment No. 362 (the “Amendment”) to the Company’s Registration Statement on Form N-1A under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. The Board of Directors of the Company has authorized the issuance and sale by the Company of the following classes and numbers of shares of common stock, $0.001 par value per share (collectively, the “Shares”), with respect to three new series of the Company – F/m Compoundr High Yield Bond ETF, F/m Compoundr U.S. Treasury 10-Year Note ETF, and F/m Compoundr U.S. Aggregate Bond ETF.

 

PORTFOLIO CLASS AUTHORIZED SHARES
F/m Compoundr High Yield Bond ETF DDDDDDDDDD  100,000,000
F/m Compoundr U.S. Treasury 10-Year Note ETF GGGGGGGGGG 100,000,000
F/m Compoundr U.S. Aggregate Bond ETF IIIIIIIIII 100,000,000

 

The Amendment seeks to register an indefinite number of Shares.

 

We have reviewed the Company’s Articles of Incorporation, as amended and supplemented; By-Laws, as amended; resolutions of its Board of Directors; and such other legal and factual matters as we have deemed appropriate. This opinion is based exclusively on the Maryland General Corporation Law and the federal law of the United States of America.

 

Based upon and subject to the foregoing, it is our opinion that the Shares, when issued for payment as described in the Company’s prospectuses offering the Shares and in accordance with the Company’s Articles of Incorporation, as amended and supplemented, for not less than $0.001 per share, will be legally issued, fully paid and non-assessable by the Company.

 

 

We consent to the filing of this opinion as an exhibit to the Amendment to the Company’s Registration Statement.

 

  Very truly yours,
