ITEM #9 UNDERTAKINGS.

The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes:

(1) To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a
    post-effective amendment to the registration statement to include any
    material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously
    disclosed in the registration statement or any material change to such
    information in the registration statement. That, for the purpose of
    determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each such
    post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be all new registration
    statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of
    such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide
    offering thereof.

(2) To include any material information not previously disclosed in the
    Registration Statement or any material change to such information in the
    Registration Statement, provided, however, that paragraphs (i) and (ii) do
    not apply if the Registration Statement is on Form S-3 or Form S-8, and the
    information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those
    paragraph is contained in periodic reports filed by the Company pursuant to
    Section 13 or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 that are

    shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

(5) Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act
    may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the
    Company pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the Company has
    been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission,
    such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities
    Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for
    indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the
    Company of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling
    person of the Company in the successful defense of any action, suit or
    proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in
    connection with the securities being registered, the Company 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 indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in
    the Securities Act, and will be governed by the final adjudication of such
    issue.

Re:   437,666 Shares of Common Stock
      of Daleco Resources Corporation
      -------------------------------


Gentlemen:

We have represented Daleco Resources Corporation (the "Company") in connection
with the registration of the above referenced Shares under the Securities Act of
1933 on the Company's Form S-8 Registration Statement (the "Registration
Statement") for issuance to certain "consultants" as specified in the
Registration Statement.

We have examined the originals or copies, certified or otherwise identified to
our satisfaction, of the Company's Certificate of Incorporation; it By-Laws;
minutes of the Meetings of the Board of Directors; the Agreements listed as
Exhibits to the Registration Statement or incorporated therein by reference; and
such other materials as we considered necessary to support this opinion.

Based on this examination, we are of the opinion that the Shares have been
clearly and validly authorized, and that the Shares will be legally issued,
fully paid and non-assessable when certificates therefore have been duly
executed and countersigned and delivered.

We hereby consent to the reference to this firm in the Registration Statement
under Item 5 of Form S-8, Interest of Named Experts and Counsel, and to the
attachment of this opinion as an Exhibit to the Registration Statement.

                               Ehmann, Van Denbergh & Trainor, P.C.

The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes:

(1) To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a
    post-effective amendment to the registration statement to include any
    material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously
    disclosed in the registration statement or any material change to such
    information in the registration statement. That, for the purpose of
    determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each such
    post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be all new registration
    statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of
    such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide
    offering thereof.

(2) To include any material information not previously disclosed in the
    Registration Statement or any material change to such information in the
    Registration Statement, provided, however, that paragraphs (i) and (ii) do
    not apply if the Registration Statement is on Form S-3 or Form S-8, and the
    information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those
    paragraph is contained in periodic reports filed by the Company pursuant to
    Section 13 or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 that are

    may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the
    Company pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the Company has
    been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission,
    such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities
    Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for
    indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the
    Company of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling
    person of the Company in the successful defense of any action, suit or
    proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in
    connection with the securities being registered, the Company will, unless in

    precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question
    whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in
    the Securities Act, and will be governed by the final adjudication of such
    issue.

Re:   437,666 Shares of Common Stock
      of Daleco Resources Corporation
      -------------------------------

Gentlemen:

We have represented Daleco Resources Corporation (the "Company") in connection
with the registration of the above referenced Shares under the Securities Act of
1933 on the Company's Form S-8 Registration Statement (the "Registration
Statement") for issuance to certain "consultants" as specified in the
Registration Statement.

We have examined the originals or copies, certified or otherwise identified to
our satisfaction, of the Company's Certificate of Incorporation; it By-Laws;
minutes of the Meetings of the Board of Directors; the Agreements listed as
Exhibits to the Registration Statement or incorporated therein by reference; and
such other materials as we considered necessary to support this opinion.

Based on this examination, we are of the opinion that the Shares have been
clearly and validly authorized, and that the Shares will be legally issued,
fully paid and non-assessable when certificates therefore have been duly
executed and countersigned and delivered.

We hereby consent to the reference to this firm in the Registration Statement
under Item 5 of Form S-8, Interest of Named Experts and Counsel, and to the
attachment of this opinion as an Exhibit to the Registration Statement.

                               Ehmann, Van Denbergh & Trainor, P.C.
