above. We also have assumed for the purposes of this opinion that, with respect to matters relating to the
Shares, the Certificate of Trust, the Declaration, the Bylaws, and the Resolutions will not have been
amended, modified, or withdrawn with respect to matters relating to the Shares, and will be in full force
and effect on the date of the issuance of such Shares.
This opinion is based entirely on our review of the documents listed above and such other documents as
we have deemed necessary or appropriate for the purposes of this opinion and such investigation of law as
we have deemed necessary or appropriate. We have made no other review or investigation of any kind
whatsoever, and we have assumed, without independent inquiry, the accuracy of the information set forth
in such documents.
This opinion is limited solely to the Delaware Statutory Trust Act to the extent that the same may apply to
or govern the transactions referred to herein, and we express no opinion with respect to the laws of any
other jurisdiction or to any other laws of the State of Delaware. Further, we express no opinion as to any
state or federal securities laws, including the securities laws of the State of Delaware. No opinion is given
herein as to the choice of law or internal substantive rules of law that any tribunal may apply to such
transactions. In addition, to the extent that the Declaration or the Bylaws refer to, incorporate, or require
compliance with the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”), or any other law or
regulation applicable to the Trust, except for the Delaware Statutory Trust Act, we have assumed
compliance by the Trust with the 1940 Act and such other laws and regulations.
We understand that all of the foregoing assumptions and limitations are acceptable to you.
Based upon and subject to the foregoing, it is our opinion that the Shares, when issued and sold in
accordance with the Declaration, the Bylaws, the Resolutions, and the Registration Statement, will be
validly issued, fully paid, and nonassessable by the Trust.
This opinion is given as of the date hereof and we assume no obligation to update this opinion to reflect
any changes in law or any other facts or circumstances which may hereafter come to our attention. We
hereby consent to the filing of this opinion as an exhibit to the Registration Statement and to the use of
our name in the Registration Statement. In rendering this opinion and giving this consent, we do not admit
that we are in the category of persons whose consent is required under Section 7 of the Securities Act of
1933, as amended, or the rules and regulations of the Commission thereunder.
Very truly yours,
