ROCKLAND GROWTH FUND
NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- MARCH 31, 1999 (UNAUDITED)
1. ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The Rockland Funds Trust (the "Trust") was organized on July 31, 1996, as a
Delaware business trust and is registered as an open-end management
investment company under the Investment Company Act of 1940 ("1940 Act").
The Trust currently consists of one series, The Rockland Growth Fund (the
"Fund"). The investment objective of the Fund is to seek capital
appreciation. In seeking its investment objective of capital appreciation,
the Fund will, under normal market conditions, invest primarily in equity
securities of domestic companies. The Fund is structured for flexibility and
risk reduction, but centered around investment in high quality growth stocks
with an emphasis on those companies whose growth potential, in the opinion
of the Fund's investment adviser, GREENVILLE CAPITAL MANAGEMENT, INC., has
been overlooked by Wall Street analysts. The Fund issued and sold 10,000
Institutional shares of its capital stock at $10 per share on October 21,
1996. The Fund commenced operations on December 2, 1996.
The costs incurred in connection with the organization, initial registration
and public offering of shares, aggregating $34,078, have been paid by the
Adviser. The Fund has reimbursed the Adviser. These costs are being
amortized over the period of benefit, but not to exceed sixty months from
the Fund's commencement of operations.
The Fund has issued two classes of shares: Retail and Institutional. The
Retail shares are subject to a 0.25% 12b-1 fee and an initial sales charge
imposed at the time of purchase, in accordance with the Fund's prospectus.
The maximum sales charge is 3% of the offering price or 3.09% of the net
asset value. Each class of shares has identical rights and privileges except
with respect to 12b-1 fees paid by Retail shares and voting rights on
matters affecting a single class of shares.
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies consistently
followed by the Fund.
a) Investment Valuation - Common stocks, other equity-type securities, and
securities sold short that are listed on a security exchange or quoted
on NASDAQ are valued at the last quoted sales price on which such
securities are primarily traded. Common stocks, other equity-type
securities, and securities sold short which are listed on an exchange or
the NASDAQ Stock Market but which are not traded on the valuation date
are valued at the mean between the current bid and asked price. Options
purchased or written by the Fund are valued at the average of the
current bid and asked prices. Mutual fund investments are valued at the
net asset value on the day the valuation is made. Other assets and
securities for which no quotations are readily available are valued at
fair value as determined in good faith by management in accordance with
procedures approved by the Board of Trustees. Debt securities (those
with remaining maturities of 60 days or less) are valued at amortized
cost, which approximates market value.
b) Federal Income Taxes - It is the Fund's policy to comply with the
requirements of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated
investment companies and to distribute all of its taxable net income as
well as any net realized gains to its shareholders. Therefore, no
federal income tax provision is required.
c) Distributions to Shareholders - Dividends from net investment income are
declared and paid annually in December. Distributions of net realized
capital gains, if any, will be declared at least annually and
distributed in December. Distributions from net realized gains for book
purposes may include short-term capital gains which are included as
ordinary income to shareholders for tax purposes.
Generally accepted accounting principles require that permanent
differences between financial reporting and tax reporting be
reclassified between various components of net assets. As of September
30, 1998, on the statement of assets and liabilities, as a result of
permanent book-to-tax differences, $137,126 has been reclassified from
capital with $184,078 posted to accumulated undistributed net investment
income and $46,952 posted from accumulated net realized loss. These
differences relate to the use of the net operating loss as an offset
against short-term gains for tax purposes and the amortization of
organization costs for tax purposes.
Net investment income and realized gains and losses for federal income
tax purposes may differ from that reported on the financial statements
because of temporary book and tax basis differences. Temporary
differences are primarily the result of losses from wash sales. As of
September 30, 1998, temporary differences also result from post-October
31 losses of $535,559, which are not recognized for tax purposes until
the first day of the following fiscal year.
On December 31, 1996, a dividend of $3,001 was paid to Institutional
shareholders of record on December 30, 1996. There were no Retail
shareholders as of the record date.
d) Use of Estimates - The preparation of financial statements in conformity
with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to
make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of
assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and
liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported
amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual
results could differ from those estimates.
e) Foreign Securities - Investing in securities of foreign companies and
foreign governments involves special risks and considerations not
typically associated with investing in U.S. companies and the U.S.
government. These risks include revaluation of currencies and future
adverse political and economic developments. Moreover, securities of
many foreign companies and foreign governments and their markets may be
less liquid and their prices more volatile than those of securities of
comparable U.S. companies and the U.S. government.
f) Other - Investment and shareholder transactions are recorded on trade
date. The Fund determines the gain or loss realized from investment
transactions by comparing the original cost of the security lot sold
with the net sales proceeds. Dividend income is recognized on the ex-
dividend date or as soon as information is available to the Fund, and
interest income is recognized on an accrual basis.

4. INVESTMENT ADVISORY AND OTHER AGREEMENTS
The Trust, on behalf of the Fund, has entered into an Investment Advisory
Agreement with Greenville Capital Management, Inc. Pursuant to its advisory
agreement with the Trust, the Investment Adviser is entitled to receive a
fee, calculated daily and payable monthly, at the annual rate of 1.00% as
applied to the Fund's daily net assets.
The Investment Adviser has voluntarily agreed to waive its management fee
and/or reimburse the operating expenses to the extent necessary to insure
that the total operating expenses do not exceed 2.00% and 1.75% of the
Fund's average daily net assets for the Retail class and Institutional
class, respectively.
Firstar Mutual Fund Services, LLC serves as transfer agent, administrator
and accounting services agent for the Fund. Firstar Bank Milwaukee, N.A.
serves as custodian for the Fund.
5. SHORT POSITIONS
As a portfolio management strategy, the Fund may engage in short sales of
securities, which result in obligations of the Fund to make a future
delivery of a specific security. These obligations are subject to the risk
that the security's market price at the delivery date will exceed the
amount of proceeds initially received, and that the Fund may be required to
purchase the security at prevailing market prices (or deliver the security
if owned by the Fund) and thus realize a loss on the transaction.
Obligations under short sales are reported as liabilities and are adjusted
to the current market value of the security to be delivered. The Fund
generally maintains deposits with brokers approximating the market value of
securities sold short. At March 31, 1999, the Fund did not hold any short
positions.
6. DISTRIBUTION PLAN
The Fund has adopted a plan pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act (the
"Plan"), which requires the Retail class to pay the Distributor a
distribution fee of up to 0.25% of its average daily net assets computed on
an annual basis. Under the terms of the Plan, the Distributor is authorized
to, in turn, pay all or a portion of this fee to any securities dealer,
financial institution or any other person who renders assistance in
distributing or promoting the sale of Retail class shares pursuant to a
written agreement. To the extent such fee is not paid to such persons, the
Distributor may use the fee for its own distribution expenses incurred in
connection with the sale of the shares, although it is the Distributor's
current intention to pay out all or most of the fee. The Fund has incurred
$1,865 pursuant to the Plan for the six months ended March 31, 1999.
