and cash distributions, if any, on any shares owned and through the purchase of
additional shares. Financial planners and registered investment advisers whose
clients beneficially own Emerging Growth Fund and Micro-Cap Fund shares may
continue to purchase Fund shares for those clients. Investors who requested
Fund information prior to November 15, 1999 may purchase shares of the Emerging
Growth Fund and the Micro-Cap Fund. Accounts may not be opened in the Emerging
Growth Fund and Micro-Cap Fund by means of an exchange from another existing Van
Wagoner Funds account. Shareholders must maintain the minimum account value
stated in the prospectus or imposed by their broker-dealer.
The Emerging Growth Fund and the Micro-Cap Fund may resume sales to new
investors at some future date, but have no present intention to do so.
