| Item 30: | Indemnification |
Reference is made to Article VIII, Sections 1 through 5, of the Registrants Amended and Restated Agreement and Declaration of Trust, previously filed as an exhibit to the Registration Statement on Form N-2 (File No. 333-235966).
The form of Underwriting Agreement incorporated by reference herein provides for each of the parties thereto, including the Registrant and the underwriters, to indemnify others, their directors or trustees, officers, agents, affiliates and persons who control them against certain liabilities in connection with the offering as described herein, including certain liabilities under the federal securities laws.
Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the 1933 Act), may be permitted to trustees, officers and controlling persons of the Registrant by the Registrant pursuant to the Amended and Restated Agreement and Declaration of Trust of PIMCO Dynamic Income Opportunities Fund (the Fund), its Bylaws or otherwise, the Registrant is aware that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission, such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the 1933 Act and, therefore, is unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the Registrant of expenses incurred or paid by trustees, officers or controlling persons of the Registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such trustees, officers or controlling persons in connection with the securities being registered, the Registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such
3
indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the 1933 Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
Reference is made to Section 9.4 of the Form of Master Agreement Among Underwriters previously filed as an exhibit to the Registration Statement on Form N-2 (File No. 333-235966).

PIMCO Dynamic Income Opportunities Fund
1633 Broadway
New York, New York 10019
Ladies and Gentlemen:
We have acted as counsel to PIMCO Dynamic Income Opportunities Fund (the Fund) in connection with the registration statement of the Fund on Form N-2 under the Securities Act of 1933 (the Securities Act) and the Investment Company Act of 1940 (file nos. 333-235966 and 811-23505) (the Original Registration Statement), each as amended, with respect to certain of its common shares of beneficial interest, par value of $0.00001 per share. This opinion is being issued in connection with the registration statement of the Fund on Form N-2 (the New Registration Statement), which is being filed pursuant to Rule 462(b) under the Securities Act to register additional common shares of beneficial interest of the Fund (the Additional Common Shares) that are part of the same offering described in the Original Registration Statement. The Additional Common Shares are to be sold pursuant to an Underwriting Agreement substantially in the form filed as an exhibit to the Original Registration Statement (the Underwriting Agreement) among the Fund, Pacific Investment Management Company LLC, Morgan Stanley & Co. LLC, BofA Securities, Inc., UBS Securities LLC and the other underwriters party thereto.
We have examined the Funds Amended and Restated Agreement and Declaration of Trust on file in the office of the Secretary of The Commonwealth of Massachusetts (the Declaration of Trust), and the Funds Amended and Restated Bylaws, and are familiar with the actions taken by the Fund in connection with the issuance and sale of the Additional Common Shares. We have also examined such other documents and records as we have deemed necessary for the purposes of this opinion.
Based upon the foregoing, we are of the opinion that:
1. The Fund is a duly organized and validly existing unincorporated voluntary association with transferable shares under and by virtue of the laws of The Commonwealth of Massachusetts.
2. The Additional Common Shares have been duly authorized and, when issued and paid for in accordance with the Underwriting Agreement, will be validly issued, fully paid and, except as described in the following paragraph, nonassessable by the Fund.
Page 2
The Fund is an entity of the type commonly known as a Massachusetts business trust. Under Massachusetts law, shareholders could, under certain circumstances, be held personally liable for the obligations of the Fund. However, the Declaration of Trust disclaims shareholder liability for acts or obligations of the Fund and requires that a notice of such disclaimer be given in each note, bond, contract, instrument, certificate or undertaking entered into or executed by the Fund or its trustees. The Declaration of Trust provides for indemnification out of the property of the Fund for all loss and expense of any shareholder of the Fund held personally liable solely by reason of his being or having been a shareholder. Thus, the risk of a shareholders incurring financial loss on account of being a shareholder should be limited to circumstances in which the Fund itself would be unable to meet its obligations.
We understand that this opinion is to be used in connection with the registration of the Additional Common Shares for offering and sale pursuant to the Securities Act. We consent to the filing of this opinion with and as part of the New Registration Statement and to the references to our firm under the caption Legal Matters in the prospectus, incorporated by reference into the New Registration Statement.
| Very truly yours, |
| /s/ Ropes & Gray LLP |
