File Nos. 333-08045 and 811-07705
Dear Sir/Madam:
On behalf of Kayne Anderson Mutual Funds (the "Registrant"), I hereby
submit this application for withdrawal of Post-Effective Amendment No. 8 to the
Registrant's Registration Statement on Form N-1A (the "Amendment") pursuant to
Rule 477(a) of the Securities Act of 1933 (the "Act").
The Amendment was filed to notify of a material change to the Kayne
Anderson Intermediate Tax-Free Bond Fund's fundamental investment objective. The
Amendment is being withdrawn because the Registrant was notified by the
Securities and Exchange Commission that this should have been filed pursuant to
Rule 497. A supplement updating the Prospectus pursuant to Rule 497 was filed on
November 8, 1999.
The Amendment will become effective on November 20, 1999 pursuant to Rule
485(a) of the Act. Please issue an order with respect to this application for
withdrawal as soon as possible.
Pursuant to the requirements of Rule 478 of the Act, this application for
withdrawal of the Amendment has been duly signed by the President of the
Registrant this 12th day of November, 1999.
Very truly yours,
Allan Michael Rudnick
President
