The Munder Funds Trust
480 Pierce Street
Birmingham, Michigan 48009


Ladies and Gentlemen:

This opinion is given in connection with the filing by The Munder Funds Trust, a
Massachusetts business trust ("Trust"), of the Trust's Registration Statement on
Form N-14 ("Registration Statement") under the Securities Act of 1933, as
amended ("1933 Act"), relating to the issuance of shares of beneficial interest,
at a par value of $0.01 per share, of the Munder Large-Cap Value Fund, a
separate series of the Trust ("Large-Cap Value Fund"), in connection with the
acquisition by the Large-Cap Value Fund of all of the assets and the assumption
by the Large-Cap Value Fund of all of the liabilities of the Munder Framlington
Global Financial Services Fund, a series of The Munder Framlington Funds Trust,
in exchange for shares of the Large-Cap Value Fund ("Reorganization"). The
authorized shares of beneficial interest of the Large-Cap Value Fund are
hereinafter referred to as the "Shares."

We have examined the following Trust documents: the Trust's Declaration of
Trust, as amended; the Trust's Amended and Restated By-Laws; the Registration
Statement, including the Form of Agreement and Plan of Reorganization included
therein; pertinent provisions of the laws of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts;
and such other Trust records, certificates, documents and statutes that we have
deemed relevant in order to render the opinions expressed herein.

Based on such examination, we are of the opinion that:

1.   The Trust is a business trust duly organized, validly existing, and in good
     standing under the laws of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts; and

2.   The Shares to be offered for sale by the Trust, when issued in the manner
     contemplated by the Registration Statement, will be legally issued, fully
     paid and non-assessable.

This letter expresses our opinion as to the Massachusetts business trust law
governing matters such as the due organization of the Company and the
authorization and issuance of the Shares, but does not extend to the securities
or "Blue Sky" laws of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts or to federal securities
or other laws.

We consent to the use of this opinion as an exhibit to the Registration
Statement.

                                                     Very truly yours,
                                                     /s/ Dechert
