                               CASH RESERVES FUND


INVESTOR PROFILE
Who should consider investing in this fund?

You may want to invest more of your assets in this fund if you:

o    require stability of principal

o    are  seeking  a mutual  fund for the cash  portion  of an asset  allocation
     program

o    need to "park" your money temporarily

o    consider yourself a saver rather than an investor

or

o    are investing emergency reserves

You may want to invest fewer of your assets in this fund if you:

o    want federal deposit insurance

o    are seeking an investment that is likely to outpace inflation

o    are  investing  for  retirement  or other  goals that are many years in the
     future

or

o    are investing for growth or maximum current income

INVESTMENT OBJECTIVE
What is this fund's goal?

The Cash Reserves Fund seeks high current  income from money market  instruments
consistent with the  preservation of capital and liquidity.  The fund intends to
maintain a stable value of $1.00 per share.

PORTFOLIO MANAGEMENT
Who makes the investment decisions for this fund?

The fund is managed by a team of CIMCO's portfolio managers.

PRINCIPAL RISKS
What are the main risks of investing in this fund?

As with any money market fund, the yield paid by the fund will vary with changes
in interest rates. Generally, if interest rates rise, the market value of income
bearing  securities will decline.  Also, there is a remote  possibility that the
fund's share value could fall below $1.00,  which could reduce the value of your
account.

An investment in the Cash Reserves Fund is neither insured nor guaranteed by the
Federal Deposit Insurance  Corporation or any other government agency.  Although
the Cash  Reserves  Fund attempts to maintain a stable price of $1.00 per share,
there is no  assurance  that it will be able to do so and it is possible to lose
money by investing in the fund.

PRINCIPAL INVESTMENT STRATEGIES
How does this fund pursue its objective?

The Cash  Reserves Fund invests  exclusively  in U.S.  dollar-denominated  money
market securities maturing in thirteen months or less from the date of purchase.
It includes such securities issued by U.S. and foreign  financial  institutions,
corporate issuers,  the U.S. Government and its agencies and  instrumentalities,
municipalities,  foreign governments, and multi-national organizations,  such as
the World Bank.  At least 95% of the fund's  assets must be rated in the highest
short-term category (or its unrated  equivalent),  and 100% of the fund's assets
must be invested in securities  rated in the two highest  rating  categories.  A
more detailed  description of the rating categories and the types of permissible
issuers is contained in the SAI. The fund  maintains a  dollar-weighted  average
portfolio maturity of 90 days or less. The fund may also:

o    Lend   securities  to  financial   institutions,   enter  into   repurchase
     agreements,  engage in  short-term  trading and  purchase  securities  on a
     when-issued or forward commitment basis;

o    Invest in U.S. dollar-denominated foreign money market securities, although
     no more than 25% of the fund's  assets  may be  invested  in foreign  money
     market  securities  unless  such  securities  are  backed by a U.S.  parent
     financial institution; and

o    To the extent  permitted  by law and  available  in the  market,  invest in
     mortgage-backed and asset-backed  securities,  including those representing
     pools of  mortgage,  commercial  or  consumer  loans  originated  by credit
     unions.

The fund's current 7-day yield may be obtained by calling 1-800-877-6089.

How has the Cash Reserves Fund performed?

The following bar chart provides an illustration of the performance of the Class
A Shares of the Cash Reserves Fund. The bar chart does not reflect the deduction
of the  Sales  Charges  imposed  on the  Class A  Shares  and also  assumes  the
reinvestment  of any  dividends  and  distributions.  If the Sales  Charges were
deducted from the annual total  returns shown below,  the return would have been
lower.

                                    BOND FUND

INVESTOR PROFILE
Who should consider investing in this fund?

You may want to invest more of your assets in this fund if you:

o    are seeking a regular stream of income

o    are  seeking  higher  potential  returns  than money  market  funds and are
     willing to accept moderate risk of volatility

o    want to diversify your investments

o    are  seeking a mutual  fund for the income  portion of an asset  allocation
     program

or

o    are retired or nearing retirement

You may want to invest fewer of your assets in this fund if you:

o    are investing for maximum return over a long time horizon

or

o    require absolute stability of your principal

INVESTMENT OBJECTIVE
What is this fund's goal?

The Bond Fund seeks to generate a high level of current income,  consistent with
the prudent  limitation of investment risk,  primarily  through  investment in a
diversified portfolio of income bearing debt securities.

PORTFOLIO MANAGEMENT
Who makes the investment decisions for this fund?

The fund is managed by a team of CIMCO's portfolio managers.

PRINCIPAL RISKS
What are the main risks of investing in this fund?

As with most income funds,  the Bond Fund is subject to interest rate risk,  the
risk that the value of your  investment  will fluctuate with changes in interest
rates.  Typically, a rise in interest rates causes a decline in the market value
of income  bearing  securities.  Other  factors may affect the market  price and
yield of the fund's  securities,  including  investor  demand and  domestic  and
worldwide  economic  conditions.  Loss of money is a risk of  investing  in this
fund.

In addition,  the fund is subject to credit risk,  the risk that issuers of debt
securities may be unable to meet their interest or principal payment obligations
when  due.  The  ability  of the  fund  to  realize  interest  under  repurchase
agreements  and pursuant to loans of the fund's  securities  is dependent on the
ability of the seller or borrower, as the case may be, to perform its obligation
to the fund. There are also prepayment/extension risks, which is the chance that
a fall/rise in interest rates will  reduce/extend  the life of a mortgage backed
security by increasing/decreasing  mortgage prepayments,  typically reducing the
return.

To the extent that the fund invests in non-investment grade securities, the fund
is also subject to  above-average  credit,  market and other  risks.  Issuers of
non-investment  grade  securities  (i.e.,  "junk"  bonds) are  typically in weak
financial  health and their  ability to pay interest and principal is uncertain.
Compared to issuers of investment-grade bonds, they are more likely to encounter
financial  difficulties and to be materially affected by these difficulties when
they do encounter them.

PRINCIPAL INVESTMENT STRATEGIES
How does this fund pursue its objective?


To keep current income  relatively  stable and to limit share price  volatility,
the  Bond  Fund  emphasizes   investment   grade  securities  and  maintains  an
intermediate  (typically  3-6 year)  average  portfolio  duration.  Under normal
circumstances,  the fund invests at least 80% of its assets in such  securities.
The CIMCO management team utilizes an approach that involves frequent trading of
the  securities  in  the  portfolio.  The  Fund  may  invest  in  the  following
instruments:


o    Corporate  debt  securities:  securities  issued by  domestic  and  foreign
     corporations which have a rating within the four highest categories and, to
     a limited extent (up to 20% of its assets),  in securities not rated within
     the four highest categories;

o    U.S.  Government debt  securities:  securities  issued or guaranteed by the
     U.S. Government or its agencies or instrumentalities;

o    Foreign  government debt securities:  securities  issued or guaranteed by a
     foreign  government or its agencies or  instrumentalities,  payable in U.S.
     dollars, which have a rating within the four highest categories; and

o    Other  issuer  debt   securities:   securities   issued  or  guaranteed  by
     corporations,  financial institutions, and others which, although not rated
     by a national  rating  service,  are  considered  by the fund's  investment
     adviser  to have an  investment  quality  equivalent  to the  four  highest
     categories.

To the extent  permitted by law and  available in the market,  the fund may also
invest  in  asset-backed  and   mortgage-backed   securities,   including  those
representing mortgage, commercial or consumer loans originated by credit unions.

How has the Bond Fund performed?

The following bar chart provides an illustration of the performance of the Class
A Shares of the Bond Fund.  The bar chart does not reflect the  deduction of the
Sales Charges imposed on the Class A Shares and also assumes the reinvestment of
any  dividends  and  distributions.  If the Sales Charges were deducted from the
annual total returns shown below, the return would have been lower.


[GRAPHIC:  bar chart showing the following total returns:  Since inception of %,
1999 %, and 1998 %.]

         Best Calendar Quarter:     Q       %
         Worst Calendar Quarter:    Q       %


Please  remember that past  performance  is no guarantee of the results the Bond
Fund may achieve in the future.  Future  returns may be higher or lower than the
returns the Fund achieved in the past.


(1) CIMCO waived its  management fee for the Bond Fund from June 1, 1998 through
October 31, 1998. If the management  fee were deducted,  returns would have been
lower in 1998.

                                  BALANCED FUND

INVESTOR PROFILE
Who should consider investing in this fund?

You may want to invest more of your assets in this fund if you:

o    are looking for a more conservative option to a growth-oriented fund

o    want a well-diversified and relatively stable investment allocation

o    need a core investment

o    seek above-average total return over the long term irrespective of its form
     (i.e., capital gains or ordinary income)

or

o    are retired or nearing retirement

You may want to invest fewer of your assets in this fund if you:

o    are investing for maximum return over a long time horizon

o    want your return to be either  ordinary  income or capital  gains,  but not
     both

or

o    require a high degree of stability of your principal

INVESTMENT OBJECTIVE
What is this fund's goal?

The Balanced Fund seeks a high total return  through the  combination  of income
and capital appreciation.

PORTFOLIO MANAGEMENT
Who makes the investment decisions for this fund?

The fund is managed by a team of CIMCO's portfolio managers.

PRINCIPAL RISKS
What are the main risks of investing in this fund?

The risks of this fund are  similar to the risks  described  for the Bond,  Cash
Reserves, Growth and Income and Capital Appreciation Funds because it invests in
the same types of securities. As with any fund that invests in stocks and bonds,
the fund is subject to market and interest rate risks,  the risks that the value
of your investment will fluctuate in response to stock and bond market movements
and  changes in interest  rates.  Loss of money is a risk of  investing  in this
fund.

To the extent that it invests in certain securities, the fund may be affected by
additional risks relating to

o    non-investment grade securities

o    foreign securities

o    mortgage-backed securities

These items include risks that the issuer will not pay its debts,  and the value
of the investment  will fluctuate in response to market  movements or changes in
interest rates. Foreign securities have additional risks relating to the rate of
currency exchange and varying political  situations.  These risks are more fully
explained in the other fund pages,  specifically  the  International  Stock Fund
page, and the SAI.

PRINCIPAL INVESTMENT STRATEGIES
How does this fund pursue its objective?

The Balanced Fund invests in a broadly diversified array of securities including
common  stocks,  bonds and money market  instruments.  The fund employs  regular
rebalancing to maintain a relatively  static asset  allocation.  Stock, bond and
cash  components  will vary,  however,  reflecting the relative  availability of
attractively  priced stocks and bonds.  Generally,  however,  common stocks will
constitute 60% to 40% of the fund's assets,  bonds will constitute 40% to 60% of
the fund's assets and money market  instruments  may constitute up to 20% of the
fund's  assets.  The  Balanced  Fund  will  invest  in the same  types of equity
securities  in which the  Capital  Appreciation  Fund and Growth and Income Fund
invest,  the same  type of bonds in which the Bond  Fund  invests,  and the same
types of money market instruments in which the Cash Reserves Fund invests.

The fund may invest up to 25% of its assets in foreign securities.

The fund typically sells a stock when the fundamental expectations for buying it
no longer apply,  the price  exceeds its intrinsic  value or other stocks appear
more attractively priced relative to their intrinsic values.

                        MEMBERS BALANCED FUND PERFORMANCE

How has the Balanced Fund performed?

The following bar chart provides an illustration of the performance of the Class
A Shares of the Balanced  Fund.  The bar chart does not reflect the deduction of
the  Sales  Charges  imposed  on  the  Class  A  Shares  and  also  assumes  the
reinvestment  of any  dividends  and  distributions.  If the Sales  Charges were
deducted from the annual total  returns shown below,  the return would have been
lower.


[GRAPHIC:  bar chart showing the following total returns:  Since inception of %,
1999 %, and 1998 %.]

         Best Calendar Quarter:     Q       %
         Worst Calendar Quarter:    Q       %


Please  remember  that past  performance  is no  guarantee  of the  results  the
Balanced Fund may achieve in the future.  Future  returns may be higher or lower
than the returns the Fund achieved in the past.

                                HIGH INCOME FUND

INVESTOR PROFILE
Who should consider investing in this fund?

You may want to invest more of your assets in this fund if you:

o    are seeking a regular stream of income

o    are seeking higher  potential  returns than most bond funds and are willing
     to accept significant risk of volatility

o    want to diversify your investments

o    are  seeking a mutual  fund for the income  portion of an asset  allocation
     program

or

o    are retired or nearing retirement

You may want to invest fewer of your assets in this fund if you:

o    desire relative stability of your principal

or

o    are investing for maximum return over a long time horizon

INVESTMENT OBJECTIVE
What is this fund's goal?

The High Income  Fund seeks high  current  income by  investing  primarily  in a
diversified portfolio of lower-rated, higher-yielding income bearing securities.
The fund also seeks  capital  appreciation,  but only when  consistent  with its
primary goal.

PORTFOLIO MANAGEMENT
Who makes the investment decisions for this fund?

The fund is managed by a team of CIMCO's portfolio  managers,  which may use one
or more  subadvisers  under a "manager of managers"  approach to make investment
decisions  for some or all of the assets of this fund.  More  information  about
these  subadvisers,  their  investment  styles  and the  "manager  of  managers"
approach is provided later in this prospectus.  Massachusetts Financial Services
Company  ("MFS") is the only  subadviser  currently  used by CIMCO to manage the
assets of the fund.

PRINCIPAL RISKS
What are the main risks of investing in this fund?

This fund is subject to above-average  interest rate and credit risks, which are
risks that the value of your investment will fluctuate in response to changes in
interest  rates or an issuer  will not honor a financial  obligation.  Investors
should  expect  greater  fluctuations  in share  price,  yield and total  return
compared to bond funds holding bonds and other income  bearing  securities  with
higher credit ratings and/or shorter  maturities.  These  fluctuations,  whether
positive  or  negative,  may be  sharp  and  unanticipated.  Loss of  money is a
significant risk of investing in this fund.

Issuers of non-investment grade securities (i.e., "junk" bonds) are typically in
weak  financial  health  and their  ability to pay  interest  and  principal  is
uncertain.  Compared to issuers of investment-grade  bonds, they are more likely
to  encounter  financial  difficulties  and to be  materially  affected by these
difficulties when they do encounter them. "Junk" bond markets may react strongly
to  adverse  news  about an  issuer  or the  economy,  or to the  perception  or
expectation of adverse news.

The fund may also  invest in  mortgage-backed  securities  that are  subject  to
prepayment/extension risks described in the Bond Fund Principal Risks.

The High Income Fund invests  primarily in lower-rated,  higher-yielding  income
bearing  securities,  such as "junk"  bonds.  Because the  performance  of these
securities has historically been strongly influenced by economic conditions, the
fund may  rotate  securities  selection  by  business  sector  according  to the
economic outlook. Under normal market conditions,  the fund invests at least 80%
of its assets in bonds rated lower than  investment  grade  (BBB/Baa)  and their
unrated equivalents or other high-yielding securities.  Types of bonds and other
securities  include,  but are not limited  to,  domestic  and foreign  corporate
bonds, debentures,  notes,  convertible securities,  preferred stocks, municipal
obligations and government  obligations.  The fund may invest in mortgage-backed
securities.

Up to 25% of its assets may be invested in the  securities of issuers in any one
industry.

The  fund may also  invest  up to 50% of its  assets  in  high-yielding  foreign
securities, including emerging market securities.

INVESTOR PROFILE
Who should consider investing in this fund?

You may want to invest more of your assets in this fund if you:

o    are looking for a stock fund that has both growth and income components

o    are looking for a more conservative option to a growth-oriented fund

o    need a core investment

o    seek above-average  long-term total return through a combination of capital
     gains and ordinary income

or

o    are retired or nearing retirement

You may want to invest fewer of your assets in this fund if you:

o    are investing for maximum return over a long time horizon

o    desire your return to be either ordinary  income or capital gains,  but not
     both

or

o    require a high degree of stability of your principal

INVESTMENT OBJECTIVE
What is this fund's goal?

The Growth and Income  Fund seeks  long-term  capital  growth,  with income as a
secondary consideration.

PORTFOLIO MANAGEMENT
Who makes the investment decisions for this fund?

The fund is managed by a team of CIMCO's portfolio managers.

PRINCIPAL RISKS
What are the main risks of investing in this fund?

As with any fund that  invests  in stocks and also  seeks  income,  this fund is
subject to market and interest rate risks,  meaning the value of your investment
will fluctuate in response to stock market and interest rate movements.  Some of
the funds  investments  may rise and/or fall based upon investor  perception and
attitude rather than economic valuations.

Loss of money is a risk of investing in this fund.

The fund  primarily  invests in "value"  orientated  stocks which may help limit
downside risk to portfolio returns.  However these "value" stocks are subject to
the risk that their intrinsic values may never be realized by the market.

To the extent that it invests in certain securities, the fund may be affected by
additional risks relating to foreign securities.  The principal risks of foreign
securities are described in the International Stock Fund page.

PRINCIPAL INVESTMENT STRATEGIES
How does this fund pursue its objective?

The Growth and Income Fund will focus on stocks of companies  with financial and
market strength and a long-term record of financial performance, and will, under
normal  market  conditions,  maintain at least 80% of its assets in such stocks.
Primarily  through  ownership of a  diversified  portfolio of common  stocks and
securities  convertible into common stocks,  the fund will seek a rate of return
in  excess  of  returns  typically   available  from  less  variable  investment
alternatives.  The fund  generally  follows what is known as a "value"  approach
which generally means that the managers seek to invest in stocks at prices below
their intrinsic value as estimated based on fundamental  analysis of the issuing
company and its  prospects.  By investing in value stocks,  the fund attempts to
limit the downside risk over time but may also produce  smaller gains than other
stock funds if their intrinsic values are not realized by the market.

The fund will typically  invest in securities  representing  every sector of the
S&P 500 in about (+/-50%) the same weightings as such sector has in the S&P 500.
For example, if technology companies represent 10% of the S&P 500, the fund will
typically have between 5% and 15% of its assets invested in securities issued by
technology companies.

The fund may also  invest in  warrants,  preferred  stocks  and debt  securities
(including non-investment grade debt securities).  The fund may invest up to 25%
of its assets in foreign securities.

The fund typically sells a stock when the fundamental expectations for buying it
no longer apply,  the price  exceeds its intrinsic  value or other stocks appear
more attractively priced relative to their intrinsic values.

PRINCIPAL RISKS
What are the main risks of investing in this fund?


As with any fund that  invests  in equity  securities,  this fund is  subject to
market  risk,  the risk that the value of a security may move up and down due to
factors (such as  investors'  perception  or sentiment  about equity  markets or
segments of equity  markets)  that have  nothing to do with the issuer.  Loss of
money is a  significant  risk of  investing  in this  fund.  Due to its focus on
stocks that may  appreciate  in value and lack of emphasis on those that provide
current income, this fund will typically experience greater volatility over time
than the Growth and Income Fund.

To the extent the fund  invests in smaller  and  midsize  companies  it takes on
greater risks than investments in larger,  more established  companies.  Smaller
and midsize  companies  tend to have more narrow  product  lines,  more  limited
financial  resources and a more limited trading market for their securities,  as
compared  to  larger  companies.  To the  extent  the fund  invests  in  foreign
securities,  it  will be  subject  to the  risks  related  to  such  securities,
including  risks  associated  with changes in the rate of currency  exchange and
unstable  political  situations.  A further  discussion of risks associated with
foreign securities is contained in the International Stock Fund page.


PRINCIPAL INVESTMENT STRATEGIES
How does this fund pursue its objective?

The Capital  Appreciation  Fund invests  primarily in common  stocks,  and will,
under  normal  market  conditions,  maintain  at least 80% of its assets in such
securities.  The fund seeks stocks that have low market prices relative to their
intrinsic  values as  estimated  based on  fundamental  analysis  of the issuing
companies  and  their  prospects.  This is  sometimes  referred  to as a "value"
approach which is further  described on page 9, the Growth and Income Fund page.
Relative  to the Growth and Income  Fund,  the  Capital  Appreciation  Fund will
include some smaller,  less developed issuers and some companies undergoing more
significant  changes in their operations or experiencing  significant changes in
their markets. The fund will diversify its holdings among various industries and
among companies  within those industries but will often be less diversified than
the Growth and Income Fund. The combination of these factors  introduces greater
investment  risk than the Growth and Income Fund,  but can also  provide  higher
long-term returns than are typically available from less risky investments.

The fund will typically  invest in securities  representing  every sector of the
S&P 400 in about  (+/-100%)  the same  weightings  as such sector has in the S&P
400. For example, if technology companies represent 10% of the S&P 400, the fund
will  typically  have  between 0% and 20% of its assets  invested in  securities
issued by technology companies.

The fund may also invest in  warrants,  preferred  stocks and  convertible  debt
securities,  and may invest up to 25% of its assets in foreign  securities.  The
fund typically sells a stock when the fundamental  expectations for buying it no
longer apply,  the price exceeds its intrinsic value or other stocks appear more
attractively priced relative to their intrinsic values.

The Emerging Growth Fund seeks long-term capital appreciation.

PORTFOLIO MANAGEMENT
Who makes the investment decisions for this fund?

The fund is managed by a team of CIMCO's portfolio  managers,  which may use one
or more  subadvisers  under a "manager of managers"  approach to make investment
decisions  for some or all of the assets of this fund.  More  information  about
these  subadvisers,  their  investment  styles  and the  "manager  of  managers"
approach is provided later in this prospectus.  Massachusetts Financial Services
Company  ("MFS") is the only  subadviser  currently  used by CIMCO to manage the
assets of the fund.

PRINCIPAL RISKS
What are the main risks of investing in this fund?

As with any fund that  invests  in equity  securities,  this fund is  subject to
market risk,  the risk that the value of a security may increase or decrease due
to  factors  that have  nothing to do with the  issuer.  Loss of money is a very
significant  risk of investing in this fund.  Due to its focus on  securities of
small capitalization  companies, it will typically experience greater volatility
over  time  than  the  Capital   Appreciation   Fund.   Securities   of  smaller
capitalization  companies experience greater price volatility than securities of
larger  capitalization  companies because growth prospects for smaller companies
are less certain and the market for such  securities  is smaller.  Securities of
smaller capitalization companies are often thinly traded and holders may have to
sell such  securities at a discount from current  market prices or in small lots
over an extended period of time. In addition, such securities are subject to the
risk that during  certain  periods  their  liquidity  will  shrink or  disappear
suddenly  and  without  warning  as a  result  of  adverse  economic  or  market
conditions,  or adverse investor perceptions,  whether or not accurate. The fund
could  lose money if it has to sell  illiquid  securities  at a  disadvantageous
time.  The costs of purchasing or selling  securities of smaller  capitalization
companies  are often  greater than those of more widely  traded  securities  and
securities of smaller capitalization companies are often difficult to value.

Many emerging  growth  companies do not have  established  financial  histories;
often have limited product lines, markets or financial resources;  may depend on
a few key personnel for  management;  and may be susceptible to losses and risks
of bankruptcy.

To the extent that the fund invests in other higher-risk securities, it takes on
additional risks that could adversely affect its  performance.  For example,  to
the extent that the fund  invests in foreign  securities,  it will be subject to
the risks  related  to such  securities,  including  the risks  associated  with
changes in the rate of currency exchange and unstable  political  situations.  A
further  discussion of the principal risks associated with foreign securities is
contained in the International Stock Fund page.

PRINCIPAL INVESTMENT STRATEGIES
How does this fund pursue its objective?

The  Emerging  Growth  Fund  invests  primarily  in  common  stocks,  securities
convertible  into common stocks and related  equity  securities.  The fund seeks
securities of emerging growth companies, which are companies that are either:

o    relatively  small or early in their life cycle,  but have the  potential to
     become much larger enterprises, or

o    major  enterprises  whose  rates of  earnings  growth  are  anticipated  to
     accelerate because of changes such as new management, new products, changes
     in demand for the company's products, or changes in the economy or segments
     of the economy affecting the company.

Emerging  growth  companies  that the fund seeks may be of any size if they have
products, proprietary technologies, management, or market opportunities that can
support  earnings growth over extended time periods in excess of the growth rate
of the economy  and/or the rate of inflation.  Nonetheless,  most such companies
are small and have securities with smaller market capitalizations.

The subadviser generally follows a qualitative analysis (fundamental analysis of
the business prospects of each company) process in selecting  securities for the
fund. The fund typically sells a security when: (1) the fundamental  analysis of
the issuer no longer  suggests  that the issuer  will meet the  earnings  growth
expectations  that led to its  purchase,  (2) the price  exceeds  its  intrinsic
value, or (3) other securities appear more attractively priced relative to their
intrinsic values.

The fund may also  invest in  warrants,  preferred  stocks  and debt  securities
(including non-investment grade debt securities).  The fund may invest up to 25%
of its assets in foreign securities.

o    want to limit your exposure to foreign markets or currencies or income from
     foreign sources

INVESTMENT OBJECTIVE
What is this fund's goal?

The  International  Stock Fund seeks  long-term  growth of capital by  investing
primarily in foreign equity securities.

PORTFOLIO MANAGEMENT
Who makes the investment decisions for this fund?

The fund is managed by a team of CIMCO's portfolio  managers,  which may use one
or more  subadvisers  under a "manager of managers"  approach to make investment
decisions  for some or all of the assets of this fund.  More  information  about
these  subadvisers,  their  investment  styles  and the  "manager  of  managers"
approach is provided later in this prospectus.

PRINCIPAL RISKS
What are the main risks of investing in this fund?

As with any  fund  investing  in  stocks,  the  value  of your  investment  will
fluctuate in response to stock market movements as described in the earlier fund
pages. Loss of money is a significant risk of investing in this fund.

Investing in foreign  securities  involves  certain special  considerations  and
additional risks which are not typically associated with investing in securities
of domestic issuers or U.S. dollar denominated securities.  These risks may make
the fund more  volatile  than a  comparable  domestic  stock fund.  For example,
foreign securities are typically subject to:

o    Fluctuations in currency exchange rates.

o    Higher  trading  and  custody  charges   compared  to  securities  of  U.S.
     companies.

o    Different  accounting  and reporting  practices than U.S.  companies.  As a
     result, it is often more difficult to evaluate  financial  information from
     foreign  issuers.  Also,  the  laws of some  foreign  countries  limit  the
     information that is made available to investors.

o    Less  stringent  securities  regulation.  Securities  regulations  in  many
     foreign countries are often more lax than those of the U.S.

o    Potential political instability.

o    Potential  economic  instability.   The  economies  of  individual  foreign
     countries may differ favorably or unfavorably from the U.S. economy in such
     respects  as growth of gross  national  products,  rate of  inflation,  and
     industry diversification. Such differences may cause the economies of these
     countries  to be less stable  than the U.S.  economy and may make them more
     sensitive to economic fluctuations.

The risks of  international  investing  are higher in emerging  markets  such as
those of Latin America, Africa, Asia and Eastern Europe. Additionally, investing
in smaller  companies  involves a higher level of risk compared to larger,  more
established companies. Some small capitalization companies often do not have the
financial  strength needed to do well in difficult  economic  times.  Also, they
often sell  limited  numbers of  products,  which can make it harder for them to
compete with larger  companies.  As a result,  their stock prices may  fluctuate
more  over the  short-term,  but may also have more  potential  to grow.  To the
extent that the fund  invests in smaller  capitalization  companies  or utilizes
higher-risk  securities  and  practices,  it takes on  further  risks that could
adversely affect its performance.

PRINCIPAL INVESTMENT STRATEGIES
How does this fund pursue its objective?

Under normal market  conditions,  the International  Stock Fund invests at least
80% of its assets in foreign equity  securities.  Foreign equity  securities are
securities that are issued by companies organized or whose principal  operations
are outside the U.S., are issued by a foreign government, are principally traded
outside of the U.S., or are quoted or denominated in a foreign currency.  Equity
securities  include common stocks,  securities  convertible  into common stocks,
preferred  stocks,  and other securities  representing  equity interests such as
American  depository  receipts  ("ADRs"-  receipts  typically  issued  by a U.S.
financial  institution  which  evidence  ownership of  underlying  securities of
foreign corporate  issuers),  European  depository  receipts ("EDRs") and Global
depository  receipts  ("GDRs").   EDRs  and  GDRs  are  receipts  evidencing  an
arrangement with a non-U.S.  financial  institution similar to that for ADRs and
are designed for use in non-U.S. securities markets. The fund may also invest in
debt  securities,  foreign money market  instruments,  and other income  bearing
securities  as well as forward  foreign  currency  exchange  contracts and other
derivative securities and contracts. The fund always holds securities of issuers
located in at least three countries other than the U.S.

The fund allocates  portions of its assets to one or more subadvisers to achieve
a blend of suitable investments.  Currently, at least two-thirds (66.67%) of the
fund's assets are managed by a subadviser  that focuses on acquiring  relatively
large  capitalization  stocks of  issuers  located  or  operating  in  developed
countries.  Such securities are those generally representative of the securities
comprising the Morgan Stanley Capital International,  Europe, Australia, and Far
East ("EAFE")  Index.  This subadviser  typically  maintains this segment of the
fund's  portfolio in 30 to 45 such stocks which it believes  have above  average
potential for capital appreciation. It may also invest in foreign debt and other
income  bearing  securities  at  times  when it  believes  that  income  bearing
securities have greater capital appreciation potential than equity securities.

Currently,  the fund's remaining assets are managed by a subadviser that focuses
on  acquiring  small  capitalization  stocks  and stocks  principally  traded in
emerging  securities  markets  or of issuers  located  in or having  substantial
business operations in emerging  economies.  The emerging economies in which the
fund invests are located primarily in the Asia-Pacific  region,  Eastern Europe,
Central and South America,  and Africa.  In selecting both small  capitalization
stocks and emerging  market stocks,  the subadviser  seeks  securities  that are
undervalued  in the markets in which the securities  principally  trade based on
its analysis of the issuer's future  prospects.  Such an analysis  includes both
quantitative (screening for high financial returns) and qualitative (fundamental
analysis of the business  prospects of the issuer)  elements.  The percentage of
assets  allocated to any subadviser will vary depending upon CIMCO's  perception
of the relative  attractiveness  of the type of securities  that the  subadviser
specializes in under current market conditions.

The  management  fee is the amount paid to the  investment  adviser for managing
each fund's  portfolio  and assisting in other  aspects of its  operations.  The
service  fee  is  paid  to  the  fund's  distributor  for  account  service  and
maintenance.  Distribution or "12b-1" Fees (Class B only) are the fees each fund
pays CUNA Brokerage  Services,  Inc. (CUNA  Brokerage).  This fee may be used by
CUNA Brokerage to cover its distribution-related expenses (including commissions
paid to dealers)  or  distribution-related  expenses of dealers.  These fees are
paid out of the fund on an ongoing basis. Over time these fees will increase the
cost of  investment  and may make the  Class B  charges  more  than the  Class A
charges. For this reason, and others we will not normally accept purchase orders
of  $500,000 or more for Class B Shares  from a single  investor.  Additionally,
Class B Shares  automatically  convert to Class A Shares after seven years, thus
reducing  annual  expenses in  subsequent  years.  (Class B Shares  purchased by
reinvesting Class B Dividends convert to Class A Shares proportionally.)

The funds' investment  adviser,  CIMCO Inc.  (CIMCO),  has placed a "cap" on the
funds' expenses by voluntarily agreeing to reimburse each fund's expenses, other
than its  management,  12b-1,  and service  fees,  that exceed a certain  amount
excluding taxes,  interest, and other extraordinary items. These capped expenses
are shown on page [ ] in chart 2 of Appendix A. Any reimbursements made by CIMCO
to a fund are subject to repayment by the fund within the  subsequent 18 months,
to the extent that the fund can make the repayment  while  remaining  within its
expense cap.


Examples

The examples  shown below are intended to help you compare the cost of investing
in each fund with the cost of investing in other mutual funds.


The tables below show what  expenses  you would pay if you  invested  $10,000 in
each fund over the various  time  periods  indicated.  The  examples  assume you
reinvested  all dividends  and that the average  annual return for each fund was
5%. Expense tables  including the expense waivers and  reimbursements  described
above can be found on page [].

RISK COMPARISON

The  risk/return  curve below  demonstrates  that,  in general  for  diversified
portfolios of securities of the various types,  as short-term risk increases the
potential for long-term  gains also increases.  "Short-term  risk" refers to the
likely  volatility  of a fund's total return and its  potential for gain or loss
over a  relatively  short time  period.  "Long-term  potential  gains" means the
expected average annual total return over a relatively long time period, such as
20 years.


[GRAPHIC: funds and other types of investments placed on a curve; x-axis labeled
"Long Term Potential for Gains";  y-axis labeled "Short Term Risk (Volatility of
Returns)." A footnote indicates that "'Junk' bonds,  including those of the type
in  which  the High  Income  Fund  will  invest,  are  relatively  new  types of
investments.  Over time,  these  investments may prove to have higher short term
risk than is indicated above."]


This curve is not intended to indicate future  volatility or performance.  It is
merely intended to demonstrate the relationship  between the on-going short-term
risk and the long-term  potential  for gain of each of the MEMBERS  Mutual Funds
relative to the other funds and other types of investments.

Although each fund expects to pursue its investment  objective using its primary
investment strategies  regardless of market conditions,  each fund may invest up
to 100% of its  assets  in money  market  securities  as a  defensive  tactic in
abnormal market conditions.

YOUR ACCOUNT

The  following  pages  describe  how to  open  or add to an  account  and how to
purchase or sell shares.  However,  a large part of this information will not be
relevant  to you if you have a brokerage  account.  If you have such an account,
simply contact your brokerage  representative  whenever you wish to buy, sell or
transfer  shares for your account.  Regardless of the type of account,  however,
the first step to investing  with MEMBERS Mutual Funds is to carefully read this
entire prospectus.

Two classes of shares are currently available,  Class A and Class B. Other share
classes may be available through other distribution channels. Each Class has its
own cost  structure  which  allows  you to choose  the one that best  meets your
needs.  For a description of the changes that are imposed on each class,  please
see the expense table earlier in this  prospectus.  The following pages describe
the  differences  between the two classes of shares and tell you how you can get
started investing with MEMBERS Mutual Funds.

</TABLE>


     (1)  There  is a  contingent  deferred  sales  charge  (CDSC)  assessed  on
     purchases of Class A Shares of over $1,000,000. The CDSC will be calculated
     as described below for Class B Shares,  except at a rate of 1% in the first
     year and 0.5% in the second year following the purchase.

Class B Sales Charges

Class B Shares are  offered  at their net asset  value per  share,  without  any
initial  sales  charge.  However,  there is a contingent  deferred  sales charge
(CDSC) on shares you sell within five years of buying them.  There is no CDSC on
shares  acquired  through  reinvestment  of dividends.  The CDSC is based on the
original  purchase  cost or the current  market  value of the shares being sold,
whichever  is less.  The longer the time  between the  purchase  and the sale of
shares, the lower the rate of the CDSC:

     Years After Purchase       1       2        3        4        5        6
     CDSC                       4.5%    4.0%     3.5%     3.0%     2.0%     None

For purposes of computing  this CDSC, all purchases made during a calendar month
are counted as having been made on the first day of that month.

To  minimize  your CDSC,  each time you place a request  to sell  shares we will
first  sell any  shares in your  account  that  carry no CDSC.  If there are not
enough of these to meet your  request,  we will sell those  shares that have the
lowest  CDSC.  Specifically,  we will sell  shares  that  represent  share price
increases (if any) first, then dividends, then the oldest-aged shares.

For example, assume that you purchased 100 shares of a fund on January 1, Year 1
for $10 per  share,  another  100 shares on January 1, Year 2 for $15 per share,
and another 100 shares on January 1, Year 3 for $20 per share.  Also assume that
dividends of $1.50 and $2.00 per share were paid on December 31, Year 1 and Year
2, respectively, and reinvested. Your account can be summarized as:
<TABLE>
<CAPTION>
                                                     Price Per       Shares         Total     Account

January 1, Year 1          Purchased shares          $10             100             100      $1,000
December 31, Year 1        Reinvested dividends      $15              10             110      $1,650
January 1, Year 2          Purchased shares          $15             100             210      $3,150
December 31, Year 2        Reinvested dividends      $20              21             231      $4,620
January 1, Year 3          Purchased shares          $20             100             331      $6,620
</TABLE>

Assume further that you sell 200 shares in Year 3 and that the share price as of
the end of the day you sell your shares is $20.  The $6,620 in your  account can
be broken down into share price increases of $1,550 (100 shares appreciated from
$10 to $20 per share; 110 shares  appreciated from $15 to $20 per share; and 121
shares  have not  appreciated),  dividends  of $570 ($150 on 12/31 in Year 1 and
$420 on 12/31 in Year 2), and  purchase  payments  of $4,500  ($1,000 in Year 1,
$1,500 in Year 2, and  $2,000 in Year 3).  You would  incur the  following  CDSC
charges:

Type of Shares Sold (in order)     Amount      CDSC (%)    CDSC ($)
Share price increases              $1,550       None         None
Dividends                          $  570       None         None
Aged Shares (oldest sold first):
    Purchased January 1, Year 1    $1,000       3.5%(1)      $35
    Purchased January 1, Year 2    $  880(2)    4.0%(1)      $35
Total                              $4,000      1.75%(3)      $70

(1)  As a percentage of original purchase payment.
(2)  $620 of the original  $1,500  purchase  payment would remain  available for
     redemption.
(3)  As a percentage of the amount redeemed.


Certain withdrawals made through a Systematic Withdrawal Program are not subject
to a CDSC. See Additional  Investor Services  Systematic  Withdrawal  Program on
page [ ].


Other Expenses

Service Fees.  Each fund,  other than the Cash Reserves Fund, pays its principal
underwriter, CUNA Brokerage Services, Inc. (CUNA Brokerage), a service fee equal
to 0.25% of the average daily net assets attributable to each class of shares of
that  fund.  The  service  fee is used by CUNA  Brokerage  to cover its costs of
servicing shareholder accounts or to compensate other dealers who sell shares of
the funds  pursuant  to  agreements  with  CUNA  Brokerage  for  their  costs of
servicing  shareholder  accounts.  CUNA  Brokerage may retain any portion of the
service fee for which there is no dealer of record as partial  consideration for
its services with respect to shareholder accounts.

Distribution or "12b-1" Fees (Class B only). Each fund pays CUNA Brokerage a fee
equal to 0.75% of the average daily net assets attributable to Class B Shares of
that   fund.   This  fee  may  be  used  by  CUNA   Brokerage   to   cover   its
distribution-related   expenses  (including  commissions  paid  to  dealers)  or
distribution-related expenses of dealers.


Sales Charge Reductions and Waivers

o    Rights of  Accumulation,  you may add the  value of any Class A Shares  you
     already  own to the  amount of your  next  purchase  of Class A Shares  for
     purposes of calculating the sales charge.

     13-month period and receive the same sales charge as if all shares had been
     purchased at once.

are not subject to Class A sales charges:

o    Shares purchased by the reinvestment of dividends or other gains reinvested
     from one of the MEMBERS  Mutual Funds or shares  exchanged from one MEMBERS
     fund to another.

o    Shares  purchased and paid for from the proceeds of shares of a mutual fund
     (other  than one of the  MEMBERS  Mutual  Funds) on which an initial  sales

     following conditions:

General Policies


o Limitation on Purchases.  If you purchase  shares by check and your check does
not clear, your purchase will be canceled and you could be liable for any losses
or fees incurred.  We do not accept  third-party  checks,  money orders,  credit
cards, credit card checks or cash to purchase shares. All purchase payments must
be denominated in U.S.  dollars and drawn on or from U.S. credit unions or other
financial  institutions.  Additionally,  we will not  normally  accept  purchase
orders of $500,000 or more for Class B Shares from a single investor.

o  Valuation  of Shares.  The net asset  value per share (NAV) for each fund and
class is determined each business day at the close of regular trading on the New
York Stock Exchange  (typically 3 p.m.  central time) by dividing the net assets
of each fund and class by the  number  of  shares  outstanding  of that fund and
class.  Transaction  requests  received  after  3:00 p.m.  central  time will be
processed using the next day's net asset value.


o Buy and Sell Prices.  When you buy shares, you pay the NAV plus any applicable
sales charges,  as described earlier.  When you sell shares, you receive the NAV
minus any  applicable  CDSC.  Purchase  orders and  redemption  requests will be
executed at the price next  determine  after the order or request is received in
good order by MEMBERS Mutual Funds.

o Execution of Requests. Each fund is open on those days when the New York Stock
Exchange is open,  typically  Monday through  Friday.  Buy and sell requests are
executed  at the next NAV to be  calculated  after your  request is  accepted by
MEMBERS Mutual Funds. In unusual circumstances, any fund may temporarily suspend
the processing of sell requests,  or may postpone  payment of proceeds for up to
three business days or longer, as allowed by federal securities law.

o Telephone Transactions. For your protection, telephone request may be recorded
in order to verify their accuracy.  In addition,  MEMBERS Mutual Funds will take
measures to verify the identity of the caller,  such as asking for name, account
number,  Social  Security  or  other  taxpayer  ID  number  and  other  relevant
information.  MEMBERS  Mutual funds is not  responsible  for any losses that may
occur  to any  account  due to an  unauthorized  telephone  call.  Also for your
protection,  telephone transactions are not permitted on accounts whose names or
addresses  have  changed  within  the  past 30  days.  Proceeds  from  telephone
transactions  can  only  be  mailed  to the  address  of  record  or  wired  (if
pre-authorized) to a credit union or other financial institution account.


o Exchanges.  Within an account,  you may exchange shares of one fund for shares
of the same class of any other fund,  generally  without  paying any  additional
sales charges.  Sales charges will be assessed;  however,  on each exchange over
five in a calendar  year.  Systematic  exchanges  are not included as one of the
five exchanges.  (Certain  exchanges will incur small  additional sales charges;
see the SAI for more information on the exchange privilege.) Class B Shares will
continue to "age" from the date of purchase of the original fund and will retain
the same CDSC rate as they had before the exchange.


o Year 2000. The MEMBERS funds, like all funds,  could be adversely  affected by
computer  systems that do not properly process  date-related  information on and
after January 1, 2000. This is often referred to as "Year 2000" or "Y2K".  While
Year  2000  problems  could  have a  negative  effect  on  funds,  CIMCO and its
affiliated entities worked to avoid such problems. As a result of these efforts,
it is not  anticipated  that  you  will  experience  negative  affects  on  your
investments from the Year 2000 transition.


o Euro  Conversion.  On January 1, 1999,  the European  Monetary  Union  ("EMU")
implemented a new currency unit,  the Euro. In effect,  the Euro will become the
official  currency  of the  EMU  and  will  replace  the  individual  currencies
previously  used by  countries  such as Italy and France.  It is  expected  that
approximately  46% of the stock exchange  capitalization  of the entire European
market may be reflected in Euros, and participating governments will issue their
bonds in Euros.  The  implementation  of the Euro may adversely affect financial
markets  world-wide and may result in changes in the relative  strength of other
major  currencies,  including the U.S. dollar.  It is not possible to accurately
predict what effect,  if any, the conversion to the Euro by the EMU will have on
the  operation of the accounts.  However,  to the extent that a fund such as the
International Stock Fund invests in securities denominated by the Euro, the fund
may be exposed to certain risks relating to the Euro conversion. For more detail
please refer to the SAI.


o Householding.  To save time, money and resources, MEMBERS intends to send only
one copy of its reports to a household  regardless of the number of investors at
the household or the number of accounts held.  However,  any investor can obtain
additional reports upon request to MEMBERS.

o Sales in Advance of Purchase Payments. When you place a request to sell shares
for which the purchase  payment has not yet been collected,  the request will be
executed in a timely fashion,  but the fund will not release the proceeds to you
until your purchase payment clears.  This may take up to ten business days after
the purchase.

o Account  Statements.  In general,  you will receive account  statements  every
quarter,  as  well  as  after  every  transaction  (except  for  any  systematic
reinvestment  or  transaction)  that affects your account  balance and after any
changes  of name or address of the  registered  owner(s).  Every year you should
also receive, if applicable,  a Form 1099 tax information  statement,  mailed by
January 31.

o Small  Accounts  (Non-retirement  Only).  We reserve the right,  and currently
intend, to close any account (excluding  systematic investment program accounts)
that has had a balance  of less than  $1,000  for 18  consecutive  months.  Your
account  will not be closed if its drop in value is due to fund  performance  or
the effects of sales  charges.  We will mail you the proceeds if your account is
closed.

o Market Timing. To protect the interests of other investors in the fund, a fund
may refuse any  exchange  order and may cancel the  exchange  privileges  of any
parties that, in the opinion of the fund, are using market timing  strategies or
making more than four  exchanges  per owner or  controlling  party per  calendar
year.  A fund may change or cancel its  exchange  policies at any time,  upon 60
days' notice to its shareholders.

Distributions and Taxes

The funds generally  distribute most or all of their net earnings in the form of
dividends and capital gains.

                           Timing of Dividend Payments


      Fund                     Dividends Declared        Dividends Paid
  Cash Reserves                      Daily                  Monthly
      Bond                           Daily                  Monthly
    Balanced                        Monthly                 Monthly
   High Income                       Daily                  Monthly
 Growth and Income                 Quarterly               Quarterly
Capital Appreciation                Annually                Annually
  Emerging Growth
 International Stock                Annually                Annually


Dividend  Reinvestments.  Many  investors  have their  dividends  reinvested  in
additional  shares of the same fund and class. If you choose this option,  or if
you do not  indicate  any  choice,  your  dividends  will be  reinvested  on the
dividend  record  date.  Alternatively,  you can choose to have a check for your
dividends  mailed  to  you.  However,  if,  for any  reason,  the  check  is not
deliverable,  your  dividends will be reinvested and no interest will be paid on
amounts represented by the check.

Taxability  of  Distributions.  Dividends  you  receive  from  a  fund,  whether
reinvested  or  taken  as  cash,  are  generally  considered  taxable.  A fund's
long-term capital gains  distributions  are taxable as capital gains;  dividends
from other sources are generally  taxable as ordinary income.  Any time you sell
or exchange  shares,  it may result in you owing taxes.  You are responsible for
any tax liabilities generated by your transactions. The Form 1099 that is mailed
to you every  January  details your  dividends  and their  federal tax category,
although you should verify your tax liability  with your tax  professional.  For
more information on taxes generally, please refer to the SAI.

Taxability  of  Transactions.  Any  time  you  sell or  exchange  shares,  it is
considered a taxable event to you.  Depending on the purchase price and the sale
price of the shares you sell or  exchange,  you may have a gain or a loss on the
transaction.  You are  responsible  for any tax  liabilities  generated  by your
transactions.

Additional Investor Services

Systematic  Investment  Program.  You can set up regular  investments  from your
paycheck or credit union or other financial  institution  account to the fund(s)
of your choice. You determine the frequency and amount of your investments,  and
you can  terminate  the program at any time.  Investments  must be made at least
once each quarter and can be as little as $50 per  transaction  ($50 minimum per
fund).  (Please  see  the  table  on page  18.)  Systematic  investments  may be
transacted twice monthly, monthly,  bimonthly or quarterly. To take advantage of
the systematic investment program, simply complete the appropriate parts of your
account application or work with your financial representative.

Systematic  Withdrawal  Program. If your account balance is at least $5,000, you
can make  systematic  withdrawals  from  your  account.  You  must  fill out the
relevant  portion of your account  application,  and the payment  schedule.  All
payees must be on the same payment  schedule.  To begin taking  advantage of the
systematic  withdrawal program with an existing account,  contact your financial
representative  or  CUNA  Brokerage.  No  CDSC  will be  charged  on  systematic
withdrawals  that are  limited  annually  to no more than 12% of your  account's
value.

Systematic Exchange Program. If your account balance is at least $5,000, you can
exchange your shares for the same class of shares of other MEMBERS  Mutual Funds
under the systematic exchange program. You determine the frequency (no less than
monthly), day of the month, and amount of your exchanges,  and you can terminate
the program at any time. Each systematic exchange must be at least $50 per fund.
To take  advantage  of the  systematic  exchange  program,  simply  complete the
appropriate  parts of your  account  application  or work  with  your  financial
representative.

Retirement  Plans.  Shares of MEMBERS Mutual Funds can be used to fund a variety
of retirement plans, including IRAs, SEPs, 401(k) plans, 403(b)(7) arrangements,
SIMPLE plans and other pension and profit-sharing  plans. Using these plans, you
can open an account  with either a minimum  initial  investment  of $1,000 or by
setting up a systematic  investment program. To find out more, call your MEMBERS
Mutual Funds representative at 1-800-877-6089.

Payment of Broker  Account Fees.  CUNA Brokerage  charges its customers  certain
account fees, including an inactive account fee. If an investor maintains a CUNA
Brokerage  account with a $15,000  minimum  monthly  account  balance in MEMBERS
funds for each  month of the  calendar  year,  CIMCO  agrees  to pay the  annual
inactive  account fee, out of its  management  fee, up to a limit of .10% of the
amount invested in MEMBERS funds.

PORTFOLIO MANAGEMENT

The investment adviser for MEMBERS Funds is CIMCO Inc., 5910 Mineral Point Road,
Madison,  WI  53701-0391.  CIMCO was  established  on July 6, 1982.  It provides
investment  advice to the  investment  portfolios of the CUNA Mutual Group (CUNA
Mutual Insurance Society,  its "permanent  affiliate" CUNA Mutual Life Insurance
Company and their  subsidiaries  and  affiliates).  CIMCO has over $7 billion of
assets under management.

CIMCO  employs a team  approach  in the  management  of all the funds.  The Cash
Reserves, Bond, Balanced,  Growth and Income, and Capital Appreciation funds are
managed by teams of portfolio managers employed by CIMCO.

As payment for its  services as the  investment  adviser for the MEMBERS  Mutual
Funds,  CIMCO  receives a management fee based upon the assets of each fund. The
management fee paid to CIMCO is computed and accrued daily and paid monthly,  at
the following annual rates:


         Cash Reserves Fund                            0.40%
         Bond Fund                                     0.50%
         Balanced Fund                                 0.65%
         High Income Fund                              0.55%
         Growth and Income Fund                        0.55%
         Capital Appreciation Fund                     0.75%
         Emerging Growth Fund
         International Stock Fund                      1.05%

CIMCO  manages  the assets of the High  Income  Fund,  Emerging  Growth Fund and
International  Stock Fund using a "manager  of  managers"  approach  under which
CIMCO may manage some or all of the funds'  assets and may allocate  some or all
of the funds' assets among one or more "specialist"  subadvisers.  CIMCO selects
subadvisers  based on a continuing  quantitative  and qualitative  evaluation of
their skills and proven  abilities in managing  assets  pursuant to a particular
investment style.  While superior  performance is the ultimate goal,  short-term
performance  by  itself  will  not  be a  significant  factor  in  selecting  or
terminating  subadvisers,   and  CIMCO  does  not  expect  frequent  changes  in
subadvisers.


CIMCO monitors the performance of each subadviser to the extent that it deems it
appropriate to achieve a fund's  investment  objective,  reallocates fund assets
among its own portfolio management team and individual subadvisers or recommends
to the MEMBERS  Mutual  Funds board that a fund employ or  terminate  particular
subadvisers.  MEMBERS Mutual Funds and CIMCO received an order of the Commission
that  permits the MEMBERS  Mutual Funds board to employ  particular  subadvisers
without  shareholder  approval.  If there is a change in  subadvisers,  you will
receive an "information  statement" within 90 days of the change.  The statement
will provide you with relevant  information  about the reason for the change and
information about any new subadvisers.


As of the date of this  prospectus,  Massachusetts  Financial  Services  Company
("MFS") is the only  subadviser  managing the assets of the High Income Fund and
the Emerging  Growth Fund. MFS also serves as investment  adviser to each of the
funds in the MFS family of funds, America's oldest mutual fund organization. Net
assets under the  management of the MFS  organization  were about [ ] billion on
behalf of over [ ] million  investor  accounts as of December 31, 1999. MFS is a
subsidiary  of Sun Life of Canada  (U.S.)  which in turn is an  indirect  wholly
owned subsidiary of Sun Life Assurance Company of Canada.


As of the date of this prospectus, IAI International Limited ("IAI") in part and
Lazard  Asset   Management   ("Lazard")   in  part  manage  the  assets  of  the
International Stock Fund.


In addition to the International Stock Fund, IAI furnishes  investment advice to
other concerns, including other investment companies, pension and profit sharing
plans,  portfolios  of  foundations,   religious,   educational  and  charitable
institutions, trusts, municipalities and individuals, and has total assets under
management  in excess of $  billion.  The  ultimate  corporate  parent of IAI is
Lloyds  TSB  Group  plc,  a  publicly  held  financial   services   organization
headquartered  in London,  England.  Lloyds TSB Group plc is one of the  largest
personal and corporate  financial  services  groups in the United Kingdom and is
engaged in a wide range of activities including commercial and retail banking.

Use of Certain Brokers

CIMCO may use brokerage  firms that market the funds'  shares or are  affiliated
with  companies  in the CUNA Mutual  Group to execute  portfolio  trades for the
funds,  but  only  when  CIMCO  believes  that no  other  firm  offers  a better
combination of quality execution (i.e., timeliness and completeness),  favorable
price and value of research services.

Compensation of Brokers and their Representatives

The MEMBERS  Mutual Funds pay  compensation  to CUNA  Brokerage  for selling the
funds' shares.  CUNA Brokerage  passes along a portion of this  compensation  to
your financial  representative.  Additionally,  CIMCO may pay CUNA Brokerage for
certain account fees as described in the "Additional Investor Services" section.

Compensation  payments originate from two sources: from sales charges (front-end
sales  charges  for Class A Shares and CDSCs for Class B Shares)  and from 12b-1
fees (for Class B Shares) that are paid by you, the investor,  out of the funds'
assets ("12b-1" refers to the federal securities  regulation  authorizing annual
fees of this  type).  The sales  charges  and 12b-1 fees paid by  investors  are
detailed in the section "Your Account -Sale Charges" earlier in this prospectus.
The portions of these expenses that are reallowed to CUNA Brokerage are shown in
the table below.  From time to time,  CIMCO, at its discretion,  may reallow the
entire sales charge as part of a sales promotion program.

Distribution  fees  may be used  to pay  for  sales  compensation  to  financial
services firms, marketing and overhead expenses and interest expenses.

FINANCIAL HIGHLIGHTS

The financial  highlights  table is intended to help you  understand  the Fund's
financial  performance for the past year. Certain information reflects financial
results for a single Fund share.  The total  returns in the table  represent the
rate that an investor  would have earned (or lost) on an investment in the Fund,
assuming  reinvestment of all dividends and distributions.  This information has
been audited by PricewaterhouseCoopers  LLP, whose report, along with the Fund's
financial  statements,  are  included  in the SAI or  annual  report,  which are
available upon request.

                       Investment Adviser Past Performance


The performance data set forth below relates to the historic  performance of the
similarly  managed  funds of the Ultra  Series  Fund (the "USF  Funds")  for the
periods indicated. The USF Funds are variable insurance products funds that have
investment objectives,  policies,  strategies and risks substantially similar to
those of the  MEMBERS  Funds.  They have been  managed  by  members  of  CIMCO's
portfolio management team who also manage the MEMBERS Funds. Similar performance
data is also set forth  below  regarding  the MFS(R)  High  Income  Fund and MFS
Emerging  Growth  Fund.  The MFS(R) High Income and  Emerging  Growth  funds are
open-ended  mutual fund that are managed by the same portfolio  management  team
that provides  subadvisory services for the MEMBERS High Income Fund and MEMBERS
Emerging Growth Fund. The investment objectives,  policies, strategies and risks
are  substantially  similar  between the MFS and MEMBERS funds.  The performance
data is provided to illustrate the past  performance of the investment  teams in
managing  substantially similar investment portfolios and does not represent the
performance of the MEMBERS Funds. Investors should not consider this performance
data as an indication of future performance of the MEMBERS Funds.


The  performance  data was  calculated  after  deducting  all  fees and  charges
actually  incurred by the USF Funds and MFS(R) Fund.  During the periods  shown,
CUNA Mutual Life Insurance  Company and its affiliates and MFS absorbed  certain
expenses for the funds. If the funds paid these expenses,  the performance shown
would have been less favorable.

Although  CIMCO  intends to continue to reimburse  the funds in this way for the
foreseeable  future,  there is no  guarantee  that it will do so.  Additionally,
CIMCO  waived  its  management  fee for the Bond Fund from June 1, 1998  through
October 31, 1998. If the management fee was deducted, returns would be lower.

The examples  shown below are intended to help you compare the cost of investing
in each fund with the cost of investing in other mutual funds.

The tables below show what  expenses  you would pay if you  invested  $10,000 in
each fund over the various time  periods  indicated  with the  expenses  charged
after  waivers  and  reimbursements.  The  examples  assume you  reinvested  all
dividends and that the average annual return for each fund was 5%.

GENERAL INFORMATION


The MEMBERS  Mutual Funds (the "Trust") is an investment  company  consisting of
eight separate investment portfolios or funds (each, a "fund") each of which has
a  different  investment  objective(s).  Each  fund is a  diversified,  open-end
management investment company,  commonly known as a mutual fund. The eight funds
are: Cash Reserves,  Bond,  Balanced,  High Income,  Growth and Income,  Capital
Appreciation, Emerging Growth and International Stock.


The Trust was formed as a business trust under the laws of the State of Delaware
on May 21,  1997.  As a Delaware  business  trust,  the Trust's  operations  are
governed by its Declaration of Trust dated May 16, 1997 (the  "Declaration") and
Certificate of Trust, dated May 16, 1997 (the "Certificate"). The Certificate is
on file with the Office of the Secretary of State in Delaware.  Each shareholder
agrees to be bound by the  Declaration,  as amended from time to time, upon such
shareholder's  initial  purchase of shares of beneficial  interest in any one of
the funds.

INVESTMENT PRACTICES


MEMBERS Mutual Funds is a diversified  open-end  management  investment  company
consisting of eight individual  investment portfolio or funds, each with its own
investment  objective  and policies.  The  prospectus  describes the  investment
objective and policies of each of the eight funds. The following  information is
provided for those investors wishing to have more comprehensive information than
that contained in the prospectus.


Lending Portfolio Securities

All funds,  except the Cash Reserves Fund, may lend portfolio  securities.  Such
loans  will be made  only  in  accordance  with  guidelines  established  by the
Trustees and on the request of broker-dealers or institutional  investors deemed
qualified,  and only when the borrower  agrees to maintain  cash or other liquid
assets as  collateral  with the fund  equal at all times to at least 100% of the
value of the securities. The fund will continue to receive interest or dividends
on the securities loaned and will, at the same time, earn an agreed-upon  amount
of interest  on the  collateral  which will be  invested  in readily  marketable
obligations  of high quality.  The fund will retain the right to call the loaned
securities and intends to call loaned voting securities if important shareholder
meetings are imminent. Such security loans will not be made if, as a result, the
aggregate of such loans exceeds 30% of the value of the fund's assets.  The fund
may  terminate  such loans at any time.  The  primary  risk  involved in lending
securities is that the borrower will fail  financially and not return the loaned
securities  at a time when the  collateral  is  sufficient  to replace  the full
amount of the loaned securities.  To mitigate this risk, loans will be made only
to firms deemed by the funds' investment adviser,  CIMCO Inc.  ("CIMCO"),  to be
creditworthy and will not be made unless, in CIMCO's judgment, the consideration
to be earned from such loans would justify the risk.

Restricted and Illiquid Securities


Each  fund  may  invest  in  illiquid  securities  up to the  percentage  limits
described on page XX (Higher risk securities and practice  table).  CIMCO or the
fund's subadviser  (collectively referred to herein as the "Investment Adviser")
is responsible for  determining  the value and liquidity of investments  held by
each fund.  Investments  may be  illiquid  because  of the  absence of a trading
market,  making it  difficult  to value them or dispose of them  promptly  at an
acceptable price.


Illiquid  investments  include most repurchase  agreements maturing in more than
seven days, currency swaps, time deposits with a notice or demand period of more
than seven days, certain  over-the-counter  option contracts (and assets used to
cover  such  options),   participation   interests  in  loans,   and  restricted
securities.  A restricted security is one that has a contractual  restriction on
resale or cannot be resold publicly until it is registered  under the Securities
Act of 1933 (the "1933 Act").

Each fund may invest in restricted  securities.  Restricted  securities are not,
however,  considered  illiquid  if they  are  eligible  for  sale  to  qualified
institutional  purchasers in reliance upon Rule 144A under the 1933 Act and that
are  determined  to be  liquid  by  the  Trust's  board  of  trustees  or by the
Investment Adviser under board-approved  procedures.  Such guidelines would take
into  account  trading  activity for such  securities  and the  availability  of
reliable pricing information,  among other factors. To the extent that qualified
institutional  buyers  become  for  a  time  uninterested  in  purchasing  these
restricted  securities,  a  fund's  holdings  of  those  securities  may  become
illiquid.  Purchases by the International Stock Fund and the High Income Fund of
securities  of foreign  issuers  offered and sold outside the U.S.,  in reliance
upon the  exemption  from  registration  provided by Regulation S under the 1933
Act, also may be liquid even though they are restricted.

Options on Securities and Securities Indices

Writing  Options.  All of the funds  (except the Cash  Reserves  Fund) may write
(sell) covered call and put options on any securities in which it may invest.  A
call option written by a fund  obligates such fund to sell specified  securities
to the holder of the option at a specified  price if the option is  exercised at
any time before the  expiration  date.  All call  options  written by a fund are
covered,  which  means  that such fund will own the  securities  subject  to the
option so long as the option is outstanding. A fund's purpose in writing covered
call  options is to realize  greater  income than would be realized on portfolio
securities  transactions  alone.  However,  a fund may forego the opportunity to
profit from an increase in the market price of the underlying security.

A put option  written by a fund would  obligate such fund to purchase  specified
securities  from  the  option  holder  at a  specified  price if the  option  is
exercised at any time before the expiration  date. All put options  written by a
fund would be covered,  which means that such fund would have deposited with its
custodian cash or liquid high grade debt  securities with a value at least equal
to the exercise price of the put option.  The purpose of writing such options is
to generate  additional income for the fund.  However,  in return for the option
premium,  a fund  accepts  the risk that it will be  required  to  purchase  the
underlying  securities at a price in excess of the  securities'  market value at
the time of purchase.

In addition,  a written call option or put option may be covered by  maintaining
cash or liquid,  high grade debt securities  (either of which may be denominated
in any currency) in a segregated account with its custodian, by entering into an
offsetting  forward contract and/or by purchasing an offsetting option which, by
virtue of its exercise price or otherwise,  reduces a fund's net exposure on its
written option position.

The funds  (other than the Cash  Reserves  Fund) may also write and sell covered
call and put options on any securities  index composed of securities in which it
may invest.  Options on securities indices are similar to options on securities,
except that the exercise of securities  index options requires cash payments and
does not  involve  the  actual  purchase  or sale of  securities.  In  addition,
securities  index options are designed to reflect price  fluctuations in a group
of securities or segment of the securities market rather than price fluctuations
in a single security.

A fund may cover call options on a securities  index by owning  securities whose
price changes are expected to be similar to those of the underlying index, or by
having an  absolute  and  immediate  right to acquire  such  securities  without
additional cash  consideration (or for additional cash  consideration  held in a
segregated  account by its  custodian)  upon  conversion  or  exchange  of other
securities  in its  portfolio.  A fund  may  cover  call  and put  options  on a
securities index by maintaining cash or liquid high-grade debt securities with a
value equal to the exercise price in a segregated account with its custodian.


A fund may terminate its obligations under an exchange-traded call or put option
by purchasing an option identical to the one it has written.  Obligations  under
over-the-counter  options may be terminated  only by entering into an offsetting
transaction with the counterparty to such option. Such purchases are referred to
as "closing purchase" transactions.


Purchasing  Options.  The funds (other than the Cash Reserves Fund) may purchase
put and call options on any  securities in which it may invest or options on any
securities  index based on securities in which it may invest.  A fund would also
be able to enter into closing  sale  transactions  in order to realize  gains or
minimize losses on options it had purchased.

A fund would normally  purchase call options in  anticipation  of an increase in
the market value of securities of the type in which it may invest.  The purchase
of a call  option  would  entitle a fund,  in return for the  premium  paid,  to
purchase  specified  securities at a specified price during the option period. A
fund would ordinarily  realize a gain if, during the option period, the value of
such  securities  exceeded the sum of the exercise  price,  the premium paid and
transaction costs; otherwise such a fund would realize a loss on the purchase of
the call option.

A fund would normally  purchase put options in  anticipation of a decline in the
market value of securities in its portfolio ("protective puts") or in securities
in which it may invest.  The purchase of a put option would  entitle a fund,  in
exchange for the premium paid, to sell specified securities at a specified price
during the option period.  The purchase of protective puts is designed to offset
or hedge  against a decline  in the  market  value of a fund's  securities.  Put
options  may  also be  purchased  by a fund  for the  purpose  of  affirmatively
benefiting  from a decline in the price of  securities  which it does not own. A
fund would ordinarily  realize a gain if, during the option period, the value of
the underlying  securities  decreased  below the exercise price  sufficiently to
cover the premium and transaction costs;  otherwise such a fund would realize no
gain or loss on the purchase of the put option. Gains and losses on the purchase
of protective put options would tend to be offset by  countervailing  changes in
the value of the underlying portfolio securities.

The fund would purchase put and call options on securities  indices for the same
purposes as it would purchase options on individual securities.

Yield Curve Options.  The Bond,  Balanced,  and High Income Funds may enter into
options on the yield  "spread," or yield  differential  between two  securities.
Such transactions are referred to as "yield curve" options. In contrast to other
types of options,  a yield curve option is based on the  difference  between the
yields of  designated  securities,  rather  than the  prices  of the  individual
securities,  and is settled  through cash payments.  Accordingly,  a yield curve
option is profitable to the holder if this differential widens (in the case of a
call) or narrows (in the case of a put), regardless of whether the yields of the
underlying securities increase or decrease.

These  three  funds may  purchase  or write  yield  curve  options  for the same
purposes as other options on  securities.  For example,  the fund may purchase a
call option on the yield  spread  between two  securities  if it owns one of the
securities  and  anticipates  purchasing  the other  security and wants to hedge
against an adverse change in the yield between the two securities.  The fund may
also  purchase or write yield curve options in an effort to increase its current
income if, in the judgment of the Investment  Adviser,  the fund will be able to
profit  from  movements  in the  spread  between  the  yields of the  underlying
securities.  The trading of yield  curve  options is subject to all of the risks
associated  with the trading of other types of options.  In  addition,  however,
such  options  present  risk of loss even if the yield of one of the  underlying
securities remains constant,  if the spread moves in a direction or to an extent
which was not anticipated.

Yield curve options written by the Bond, Balanced,  or High Income Funds will be
"covered." A call (or put) option is covered if the fund holds  another call (or
put) option on the spread  between the same two  securities  and  maintains in a
segregated account with its custodian cash or liquid, high grade debt securities
sufficient to cover the fund's net liability  under the two options.  Therefore,
the  fund's  liability  for such a covered  option is  generally  limited to the
difference  between the amount of the fund's  liability under the option written
by the fund less the value of the option held by the fund.  Yield curve  options
may also be  covered  in such  other  manner  as may be in  accordance  with the
requirements of the counterparty  with which the option is traded and applicable
laws and  regulations.  Yield  curve  options are traded  over-the-counter,  and
because they have been only recently introduced, established trading markets for
these options have not yet developed.

Risks Associated with Options Transactions.  There is no assurance that a liquid
secondary   market  on  an  options  exchange  will  exist  for  any  particular
exchange-traded  option or at any particular time. If a fund is unable to effect
a closing  purchase  transaction with respect to covered options it has written,
the fund will not be able to sell the underlying securities or dispose of assets
held  in a  segregated  account  until  the  options  expire  or are  exercised.
Similarly, if a fund is unable to effect a closing sale transaction with respect
to options it has  purchased,  it will have to exercise  the options in order to
realize any profit and will incur transaction costs upon the purchase or sale of
underlying securities.

Reasons for the absence of a liquid  secondary market on an exchange include the
following:  (i) there may be insufficient  trading  interest in certain options;
(ii)  restrictions  may be imposed by an  exchange  on opening  transactions  or
closing  transactions  or  both;  (iii)  trading  halts,  suspensions  or  other
restrictions  may be imposed  with  respect to  particular  classes or series of
options;   (iv)  unusual  or  unforeseen   circumstances  may  interrupt  normal
operations  on an  exchange;  (v) the  facilities  of an exchange or the Options
Clearing  Corporation may not at all times be adequate to handle current trading
volume;  or (vi) one or more  exchanges  could,  for economic or other  reasons,
decide or be compelled at some future date to discontinue the trading of options
(or a  particular  class or series of  options),  in which  event the  secondary
market on that  exchange (or in that class or series of options)  would cease to
exist, although outstanding options on that exchange that had been issued by the
Options  Clearing  Corporation  as a result  of trades  on that  exchange  would
continue to be exercisable in accordance with their terms.

The funds (other than the Cash Reserves Fund) may purchase and sell both options
that  are  traded  on  U.S.   and   foreign   exchanges   and   options   traded
over-the-counter  with  broker-dealers  who make markets in these  options.  The
ability  to  terminate  over-the-counter  options  is  more  limited  than  with
exchange-traded   options  and  may   involve   the  risk  that   broker-dealers
participating in such  transactions  will not fulfill their  obligations.  Until
such  time  as  the  staff  of  the  Securities  and  Exchange  Commission  (the
"Commission")  changes its  position,  the funds will treat  purchased  over-the
counter options and all assets used to cover written over-the-counter options as
illiquid  securities,  except that with respect to options  written with primary
dealers in U.S.  Government  securities  pursuant  to an  agreement  requiring a
closing  purchase  transaction  at a  formula  price,  the  amount  of  illiquid
securities may be calculated with reference to the formula.

Transactions  by a fund in  options  on  securities  and stock  indices  will be
subject to limitations established by each of the exchanges,  boards of trade or
other trading  facilities  governing the maximum number of options in each class
which may be written or  purchased  by a single  investor or group of  investors
acting  in  concert.  Thus,  the  number  of  options  which a fund may write or
purchase may be affected by options  written or  purchased  by other  investment
advisory clients of the Investment Adviser. An exchange, board of trade or other
trading  facility may order the  liquidations of positions found to be in excess
of these limits, and it may impose certain other sanctions.

The  writing  and  purchase of options is a highly  specialized  activity  which
involves  investment  techniques and risks different from those  associated with
ordinary  portfolio  securities  transactions.  The successful use of protective
puts for hedging purposes depends in part on the Investment Adviser's ability to
predict  future price  fluctuations  and the degree of  correlation  between the
options and securities markets.

Futures Contracts and Options on Futures Contracts

The funds  (other than the Cash  Reserves  Fund) may  purchase  and sell futures
contracts and purchase and write options on futures  contracts.  These funds may
purchase and sell futures  contracts based on various  securities  (such as U.S.
Government  securities),   securities  indices,  foreign  currencies  and  other
financial  instruments  and  indices.  A fund will  engage in futures or related
options transactions only for bona fide hedging purposes as defined below or for
purposes  of seeking to  increase  total  returns  to the  extent  permitted  by
regulations of the Commodity Futures Trading  Commission  ("CFTC").  All futures
contracts entered into by a fund are traded on U.S. exchanges or boards of trade
that are licensed and regulated by the CFTC or on foreign exchanges.

Futures Contracts. A futures contract may generally be described as an agreement
between  two parties to buy and sell  particular  financial  instruments  for an
agreed price during a designated  month (or to deliver the final cash settlement
price,  in the case of a contract  relating to an index or otherwise not calling
for physical delivery at the end of trading in the contract).

When interest rates are rising or securities prices are falling, a fund can seek
through  the sale of futures  contracts  to offset a decline in the value of its
current  portfolio  securities.  When rates are falling or prices are rising,  a
fund,  through the purchase of futures  contracts,  can attempt to secure better
rates or prices  than might  later be  available  in the market  when it effects
anticipated purchases. Similarly, a fund (other than the Cash Reserves Fund) can
sell futures  contracts on a specified  currency to protect against a decline in
the value of such currency and its portfolio securities which are denominated in
such currency. These funds can purchase futures contracts on foreign currency to
fix the price in U.S.  dollars of a security  denominated  in such currency that
such fund has acquired or expects to acquire.

Positions  taken in the futures  markets are not normally held to maturity,  but
are instead  liquidated  through  offsetting  transactions which may result in a
profit or a loss.  While a fund's  futures  contracts on  securities or currency
will usually be liquidated in this manner,  it may instead make or take delivery
of the  underlying  securities  or  currency  whenever  it appears  economically
advantageous for the fund to do so. A clearing corporation  (associated with the
exchange on which futures on a security or currency are traded) guarantees that,
if still open, the sale or purchase will be performed on the settlement date.

Hedging Strategies.  Hedging by use of futures contracts seeks to establish more
certainly than would otherwise be possible the effective  price,  rate of return
or currency exchange rate on portfolio securities or securities that a fund owns
or proposes to acquire. A fund may, for example,  take a "short" position in the
futures  market  by  selling  futures  contracts  in order to hedge  against  an
anticipated  rise in  interest  rates or a decline  in market  prices or foreign
currency rates that would  adversely  affect the U.S. dollar value of the fund's
portfolio  securities.  Such futures  contracts  may include  contracts  for the
future   delivery  of   securities   held  by  the  fund  or   securities   with
characteristics similar to those of a fund's portfolio securities.  Similarly, a
fund may sell futures contracts on a currency in which its portfolio  securities
are denominated or in one currency to hedge against fluctuations in the value of
securities  denominated  in a  different  currency  if there  is an  established
historical pattern of correlation between the two currencies.

If, in the opinion of the Investment  Adviser,  there is a sufficient  degree of
correlation  between price trends for a fund's portfolio  securities and futures
contracts  based on other  financial  instruments,  securities  indices or other
indices,  the fund may also enter  into such  futures  contracts  as part of its
hedging strategy.  Although under some  circumstances  prices of securities in a
fund's  portfolio  may be more or less  volatile  than  prices  of such  futures
contracts,  the  Investment  Adviser will attempt to estimate the extent of this
difference in volatility  based on historical  patterns and to compensate for it
by having the fund enter into a greater or lesser number of futures contracts or
by attempting  to achieve only a partial  hedge against price changes  affecting
the fund's securities  portfolio.  When hedging of this character is successful,
any  depreciation  in the value of portfolio  securities will  substantially  be
offset by appreciation in the value of the futures position.  On the other hand,
any unanticipated  appreciation in the value of the fund's portfolio  securities
would be substantially offset by a decline in the value of the futures position.

On other occasions, a fund may take a "long" position by purchasing such futures
contracts.  This  would  be  done,  for  example,  when a fund  anticipates  the
subsequent purchase of particular securities when it has the necessary cash, but
expects the prices or currency  exchange  rates than available in the applicable
market to be less favorable than prices or rates that are currently available.

Options on Futures Contracts. The acquisition of put and call options on futures
contracts will give a fund the right (but not the  obligation),  for a specified
price, to sell or to purchase,  respectively, the underlying futures contract at
any time during the option  period.  As the  purchaser of an option on a futures
contract, a fund obtains the benefit of the futures position if prices move in a
favorable  direction but limits its risk of loss in the event of an  unfavorable
price movement to the loss of the premium and transaction costs.

The writing of a call option on a futures contract generates a premium which may
partially  offset a decline in the value of a fund's  assets.  By writing a call
option, a fund becomes obligated, in exchange for the premium, to sell a futures
contract which may have a value higher then the exercise price. Conversely,  the
writing of a put option on a futures  contract  generates  a premium,  which may
partially offset an increase in the price of securities that the fund intends to
purchase.  However,  a fund becomes  obligated  to purchase a futures  contract,
which may have a value lower than the exercise price. Thus, the loss incurred by
the fund in writing  options on futures is potentially  unlimited and may exceed
the  amount of the  premium  received.  A fund will incur  transaction  costs in
connection with the writing of options on futures.

The  holder or writer of an option  on a  futures  contract  may  terminate  its
position by selling or purchasing an offsetting option on the same series. There
is no guarantee that such closing transactions can be effected. A fund's ability
to  establish  and close out  positions  on such  options will be subject to the
development and maintenance of a liquid market.

Other Considerations. Where permitted a fund will engage in futures transactions
and in related  options  transactions  only for bona fide  hedging or to seek to
increase total return to the extent permitted by CFTC  regulations.  A fund will
determine that the price  fluctuations  in the futures  contracts and options on
futures  used  for  hedging   purposes  are   substantially   related  to  price
fluctuations  in  securities  held by the fund or which it expects to  purchase.
Except as stated below,  each fund's futures  transactions  will be entered into
for  traditional  hedging  purposes,  i.e.,  futures  contracts  will be used to
protect  against a decline in the price of securities  (or the currency in which
they are denominated) that the fund owns, or futures contracts will be purchased
to protect  the fund  against an  increase  in the price of  securities  (or the
currency in which they are  denominated) it intends to purchase.  As evidence of
this hedging  intent,  each fund expects that on 75% or more of the occasions on
which it takes a long futures or option  position  (involving  the purchase of a
futures  contract),  the fund will have purchased,  or will be in the process of
purchasing  equivalent  amounts of related  securities (or assets denominated in
the related  currency) in the cash market at the time when the futures or option
position is closed out.  However,  in particular  cases, when it is economically
advantageous  for a fund to do so, a long futures  position may be terminated or
an option may expire without the  corresponding  purchase of securities or other
assets.

As an alternative to literal compliance with the bona fide hedging definition, a
CFTC regulation  permits a fund to elect to comply with a different test,  under
which the aggregate initial margin and premiums required to establish  positions
in  futures  contracts  and  options on  futures  for the  purpose of seeking to
increase  total  return  will not exceed 5 percent of the net asset value of the
fund's portfolio, after taking into account unrealized profits and losses on any
such positions and excluding the amount by which such options were  in-the-money
at the time of purchase. As permitted,  each fund will engage in transactions in
futures  contracts and in related options  transactions  only to the extent such
transactions  are consistent with the  requirements of the Internal Revenue Code
of 1986,  as  amended  (the  "Code")  for  maintaining  its  qualification  as a
regulated  investment  company for federal income tax purposes (see  "Dividends,
Distributions, and Taxes" below).

Transactions  in futures  contracts  and  options on futures  involve  brokerage
costs,  require  margin  deposits  and,  in the case of  contracts  and  options
obligating  a fund to purchase  securities  or  currencies,  require the fund to
segregate  with its  custodian  liquid high grade debt  securities  in an amount
equal to the underlying value of such contracts and options.

While  transactions  in futures  contracts  and  options  on futures  may reduce
certain risks,  such transactions  themselves entail certain other risks.  Thus,
unanticipated changes in interest rates,  securities prices or currency exchange
rates may result in a poorer overall  performance  for a fund than if it had not
entered into any futures contracts or options  transactions.  In the event of an
imperfect correlation between a futures position and portfolio position which is
intended to be protected,  the desired protection may not be obtained and a fund
may be exposed to risk of loss.

Perfect  correlation  between a fund's futures positions and portfolio positions
may be difficult to achieve  because no futures  contracts  based on  individual
equity securities are currently available.  The only futures contracts available
to hedge a fund's portfolio are various futures on U.S.  Government  securities,
securities indices and foreign currencies. In addition, it is not possible for a
fund to hedge fully or perfectly  against  currency  fluctuations  affecting the
value of securities  denominated in foreign currencies because the value of such
securities is likely to fluctuate as a result of independent factors not related
to currency fluctuations.

Foreign Transactions

Foreign  Securities.  Each fund may invest in  foreign  securities  (as  defined
below),  although the Cash Reserves  Fund is limited to U.S.  dollar-denominated
foreign money market securities (as defined below).  The percentage  limitations
on each fund's investment on foreign securities is set forth in the prospectus.

Foreign securities means securities that are: (1) issued by companies  organized
outside the U.S. or whose  principal  operations are outside the U.S.  ("foreign
issuers"),   (2)   issued  by  foreign   governments   or  their   agencies   or
instrumentalities  (also "foreign  issuers"),  (3) principally traded outside of
the U.S.,  or (4)  quoted or  denominated  in a  foreign  currency  ("non-dollar
securities").  Foreign  securities  include ADRs,  EDRs, GDRs, and foreign money
market securities.

Foreign  securities  may offer  potential  benefits that are not available  from
investments  exclusively in securities of domestic issuers or dollar denominated
securities.  Such  benefits  may  include the  opportunity  to invest in foreign
issuers  that  appear  to  offer  better   opportunity  for  long-term   capital
appreciation  or current  earnings than  investments  in domestic  issuers,  the
opportunity to invest in foreign  countries  with economic  policies or business
cycles different from those of the U.S. and the opportunity to invest in foreign
securities  markets that do not  necessarily  move in a manner  parallel to U.S.
markets.

Investing  in  foreign  securities  involves  significant  risks  that  are  not
typically associated with investing in U.S. dollar denominated  securities or in
securities of domestic  issuers.  Such investments may be affected by changes in
currency  exchange  rates,  changes  in  foreign  or U.S.  laws or  restrictions
applicable  to such  investments  and in  exchange  control  regulations  (e.g.,
currency  blockage).  Some foreign  stock  markets may have  substantially  less
volume than,  for example,  the New York Stock  Exchange and  securities of some
foreign  issuers may be less  liquid  than  securities  of  comparable  domestic
issuers.  Commissions and dealer mark-ups on transactions in foreign investments
may be higher than for similar  transactions in the U.S. In addition,  clearance
and settlement  procedures may be different in foreign countries and, in certain
markets,  on certain  occasions,  such  procedures have been unable to keep pace
with the volume of securities transactions,  thus making it difficult to conduct
such transactions.

Foreign issuers are not generally  subject to uniform  accounting,  auditing and
financial  reporting  standards  comparable  to  those  applicable  to  domestic
companies.  There may be less  publicly  available  information  about a foreign
issuer  than  about a  domestic  one.  In  addition,  there  is  generally  less
government  regulation  of stock  exchanges,  brokers,  and listed and  unlisted
issuers in  foreign  countries  than in the U.S.  Furthermore,  with  respect to
certain  foreign   countries,   there  is  a  possibility  of  expropriation  or
confiscatory  taxation,  imposition of withholding taxes on dividend or interest
payments, limitations on the removal of funds or other assets of the fund making
the investment,  or political or social  instability or diplomatic  developments
which could affect investments in those countries.

Investments in short-term debt  obligations  issued either by foreign issuers or
foreign  financial  institutions  or  by  foreign  branches  of  U.S.  financial
institutions  (collectively,  "foreign money market securities") present many of
the same risks as other foreign investments.  In addition,  foreign money market
securities  present  interest  rate  risks  similar  to  those  attendant  to an
investment in domestic money market securities.

Investments  in ADRs,  EDRs and GDRs.  Many  securities  of foreign  issuers are
represented  by  American  depository  receipts  ("ADRs"),  European  depository
receipts ("EDRs") and global depository receipts ("GDRs"). Each of the funds may
invest in ADRs,  and each of the funds  other  than the Cash  Reserves  Fund may
invest in GDRs and EDRs.

ADRs are receipts  typically  issued by a U.S.  financial  institution  or trust
company  which  represent  the right to receive  securities  of foreign  issuers
deposited in a domestic bank or a foreign correspondent bank. Prices of ADRs are
quoted  in U.S.  dollars,  and  ADRs are  traded  in the U.S.  on  exchanges  or
over-the-counter  and are  sponsored and issued by domestic  banks.  In general,
there is a large,  liquid  market  in the U.S.  for ADRs  quoted  on a  national
securities  exchange  or the NASD's  national  market  system.  The  information
available  for  ADRs  is  subject  to the  accounting,  auditing  and  financial
reporting standards of the domestic market or exchange on which they are traded,
which  standards  are more  uniform and more  exacting  than those to which many
foreign issuers may be subject.

EDRs and GDRs are  receipts  evidencing  an  arrangement  with a  non-U.S.  bank
similar  to that  for  ADRs  and are  designed  for use in  non-U.S.  securities
markets.  EDRs are typically  issued in bearer form and are designed for trading
in the European  markets.  GDRs, issued either in bearer or registered form, are
designed for trading on a global basis. EDRs and GDRs are not necessarily quoted
in the same currency as the underlying security.

Depository  receipts do not  eliminate all the risk inherent in investing in the
securities of foreign  issuers.  To the extent that a fund  acquires  depository
receipts  through  banks which do not have a contractual  relationship  with the
foreign issuer of the security  underlying the receipt to issue and service such
depository receipts,  there may be an increased  possibility that the fund would
not become  aware of and be able to respond to  corporate  actions such as stock
splits or rights offerings  involving the foreign issuer in a timely manner. The
market value of  depository  receipts is dependent  upon the market value of the
underlying  securities and  fluctuations in the relative value of the currencies
in which the receipts and the  underlying are quoted.  In addition,  the lack of
information may result in  inefficiencies  in the valuation of such instruments.
However,  by investing in depository  receipts rather than directly in the stock
of foreign  issuers,  a fund will avoid  currency  risks  during the  settlement
period for either purchases or sales.

Investments in Emerging Markets.  The High Income and International  Stock Funds
may invest in securities of issuers located in countries with emerging economies
and/or  securities  markets.  These  countries  are located in the Asia  Pacific
region,  Eastern  Europe,  Central and South  America and Africa.  Political and
economic  structures in many of these  countries  may be undergoing  significant
evolution  and  rapid  development,  and such  countries  may  lack the  social,
political and economic  stability  characteristic  of more developed  countries.
Certain of these  countries  may have in the past  failed to  recognize  private
property rights and have at times  nationalized  or  expropriated  the assets of
private  companies.  As a result,  the risks of  foreign  investment  generally,
including  the risks of  nationalization  or  expropriation  of  assets,  may be
heightened.  In addition,  unanticipated  political or social  developments  may
affect  the  values  of  a  fund's   investments  in  those  countries  and  the
availability to the fund of additional investments in those countries.

The small size and  inexperience  of the securities  markets in certain of these
countries and the limited volume of trading in securities in those countries may
also make the High Income and  International  Stock Funds'  investments  in such
countries  illiquid and more volatile than  investments in Japan or most Western
European countries, and these funds may be required to establish special custody
or other  arrangements  before making certain  investments  in those  countries.
There may be little financial or accounting  information  available with respect
to issuers  located in certain of such  countries,  and it may be difficult as a
result to assess the value or prospects of an investment in such issuers.

A fund's purchase or sale of portfolio  securities in certain  emerging  markets
may be  constrained  by  limitations as to daily changes in the prices of listed
securities,   periodic  trading  or  settlement  volume  and/or  limitations  on
aggregate holdings of foreign investors.  Such limitations may be computed based
on aggregate  trading volume by or holdings of a fund, CIMCO and its affiliates,
a subadviser and its affiliates,  and each such person's  respective clients and
other  service  providers.  A fund  may  not  be  able  to  sell  securities  in
circumstances  where price,  trading or settlement volume  limitations have been
reached.

Foreign  investment  in certain  emerging  securities  markets is  restricted or
controlled to varying  degrees that may limit  investment  in such  countries or
increase the administrative cost of such investments. For example, certain Asian
countries require government approval prior to investments by foreign persons or
limit  investment  by foreign  persons to a specified  percentage of an issuer's
outstanding  securities or a specific  class of  securities  which may have less
advantageous  terms (including  price) than securities of such company available
for  purchase by  nationals.  In  addition,  certain  countries  may restrict or
prohibit investment opportunities in issuers or industries important to national
interests.  Such restrictions may affect the market price,  liquidity and rights
of securities that may be purchased by a fund.

Settlement  procedures in emerging  markets are  frequently  less  developed and
reliable than those in the U.S. and may involve a fund's  delivery of securities
before  receipt of payment for their sale. In addition,  significant  delays are
common in certain markets in registering the transfer of securities.  Settlement
or  registration  problems  may make it more  difficult  for a fund to value its
portfolio  assets  and  could  cause  a  fund  to  miss  attractive   investment
opportunities,  to have its  assets  uninvested  or to incur  losses  due to the
failure of a counterparty  to pay for securities  that the fund has delivered or
due to the fund's inability to complete its contractual obligations.

Currently,  there is no  market  or only a limited  market  for many  management
techniques and instruments with respect to the currencies and securities markets
of emerging  market  countries.  Consequently,  there can be no  assurance  that
suitable  instruments  for hedging  currency  and market  related  risks will be
available  at the times when the  Investment  Adviser of the fund  wishes to use
them.

Foreign Currency Transactions  Generally.  Because investment in foreign issuers
will  usually  involve  currencies  of foreign  countries,  and because the High
Income and International  Stock Funds may have currency exposure  independent of
their securities positions,  the value of the assets of these funds, as measured
in U.S. dollars, will be affected by changes in foreign currency exchange rates.

An issuer of securities  purchased by a fund may be domiciled in a country other
than the country in whose currency the instrument is denominated or quoted.  The
High Income and  International  Stock Funds may also invest in securities quoted
or  denominated  in the  European  Currency  Unit  ("ECU"),  which is a "basket"
consisting  of  specified  amounts  of the  currencies  of certain of the twelve
member  states of the  European  Economic  Community.  The  specific  amounts of
currencies comprising the ECU may be adjusted by the Council of Ministers of the
European  Economic  Community  from time to time to reflect  changes in relative
values of the underlying currencies.  In addition, these two funds may invest in
securities quoted or denominated in other currency "baskets."

Currency exchange rates may fluctuate  significantly  over short periods of time
causing,  along with other  factors,  a fund's NAV to  fluctuate  as well.  They
generally  are  determined  by the forces of supply  and  demand in the  foreign
exchange markets and the relative merits of investments in different  countries,
actual or anticipated  changes in interest rates and other complex  factors,  as
seen from an  international  perspective.  Currency  exchange  rates also can be
affected unpredictably by intervention by U.S. or foreign governments or central
banks,  or the  failure to  intervene,  or by  currency  controls  or  political
developments  in the U.S.  or abroad.  The market in  forward  foreign  currency
exchange  contracts,  currency  swaps and other  privately  negotiated  currency
instruments  offers less protection  against defaults by the other party to such
instruments than is available for currency instruments traded on an exchange. To
the extent that a  substantial  portion of a fund's  total  assets,  adjusted to
reflect the fund's net position after giving effect to currency transactions, is
denominated or quoted in the currencies of foreign  countries,  the fund will be
more  susceptible  to the risk of adverse  economic and  political  developments
within those countries.

In  addition  to  investing  in  securities  denominated  or quoted in a foreign
currency,  certain  of the funds may  engage in a variety  of  foreign  currency
management  techniques.  These  funds  may hold  foreign  currency  received  in
connection with  investments in foreign  securities when, in the judgment of the
fund's Investment  Adviser, it would be beneficial to convert such currency into
U.S.  dollars at a later  date,  based on  anticipated  changes in the  relevant
exchange rate. The funds will incur costs in connection with conversions between
various currencies.

Forward Foreign Currency Exchange  Contracts.  The High Income and International
Stock  Funds  may  each  purchase  or sell  forward  foreign  currency  exchange
contracts for defensive or hedging purposes when the fund's  Investment  Adviser
anticipates  that the foreign  currency will  appreciate or depreciate in value,
but securities  denominated or quoted in that currency do not present attractive
investment  opportunities and are not held in the fund's portfolio. In addition,
these two funds may enter into forward foreign  currency  exchange  contracts in
order to protect against anticipated changes in future foreign currency exchange
rates and may engage in cross-hedging  by using forward  contracts in a currency
different from that in which the hedged security is denominated or quoted if the
fund's  Investment  Adviser  determines  that there is a pattern of  correlation
between the two currencies.

These two funds may enter into  contracts  to  purchase  foreign  currencies  to
protect  against an anticipated  rise in the U.S.  dollar price of securities it
intends to purchase. They may enter into contracts to sell foreign currencies to
protect  against  the decline in value of its foreign  currency  denominated  or
quoted portfolio securities,  or a decline in the value of anticipated dividends
from such  securities,  due to a  decline  in the  value of  foreign  currencies
against the U.S.  dollar.  Contracts  to sell foreign  currency  could limit any
potential  gain  which  might be  realized  by a fund if the value of the hedged
currency increased.

If a fund  enters  into a forward  foreign  currency  exchange  contract  to buy
foreign  currency  for any  purpose,  the fund will be required to place cash or
liquid  high grade  debt  securities  in a  segregated  account  with the fund's
custodian in an amount  equal to the value of the fund's total assets  committed
to the  consummation  of the forward  contract.  If the value of the  securities
placed in the segregated account declines, additional cash or securities will be
placed in the segregated account so that the value of the account will equal the
amount of the fund's commitment with respect to the contract.

Forward contracts are subject to the risk that the counterparty to such contract
will  default on its  obligations.  Since a forward  foreign  currency  exchange
contract is not  guaranteed  by an exchange or  clearinghouse,  a default on the
contract would deprive a fund of unrealized  profits,  transaction  costs or the
benefits  of a currency  hedge or force the fund to cover its  purchase  or sale
commitments,  if any, at the current  market  price.  A fund will not enter into
such transactions  unless the credit quality of the unsecured senior debt or the
claims-paying  ability of the  counterparty is considered to be investment grade
by the fund's Investment Adviser.

Options on Foreign Currencies. The High Income and International Stock Funds may
also  purchase and sell (write) put and call options on foreign  currencies  for
the purpose of protecting  against  declines in the U.S. dollar value of foreign
portfolio  securities and  anticipated  dividends on such securities and against
increases in the U.S.  dollar cost of foreign  securities to be acquired.  These
funds may use options on  currency to  cross-hedge,  which  involves  writing or
purchasing  options on one currency to hedge against  changes in exchange  rates
for a different  currency,  if there is a pattern of correlation between the two
currencies. As with other kinds of option transactions,  however, the writing of
an option on foreign  currency will  constitute  only a partial hedge, up to the
amount of the  premium  received.  A fund could be  required to purchase or sell
foreign currencies at disadvantageous  exchange rates, thereby incurring losses.
The purchase of an option on foreign  currency may constitute an effective hedge
against  exchange  rate  fluctuations;  however,  in the event of exchange  rate
movements  adverse to a fund's position,  the fund may forfeit the entire amount
of the premium  plus related  transaction  costs.  In addition,  these funds may
purchase  call or put options on currency to seek to increase  total return when
the fund's Investment  Adviser  anticipates that the currency will appreciate or
depreciate in value,  but the securities  quoted or denominated in that currency
do not  present  attractive  investment  opportunities  and are not  held in the
fund's  portfolio.  When purchased or sold to increase total return,  options on
currencies  are  considered  speculative.  Options on foreign  currencies  to be
written or purchased by these funds will be traded on U.S. and foreign exchanges
or  over-the-counter.  See "Stock Index Futures and Related Options" above for a
discussion of the liquidity risks associated with options transactions.

Special Risks  Associated  With Options on Currency.  An exchange traded options
position  may be  closed  out  only on an  options  exchange  which  provides  a
secondary  market  for an  option  of the  same  series.  Although  a fund  will
generally  purchase or write only those options for which there appears to be an
active secondary market, there is no assurance that a liquid secondary market on
an exchange will exist for any particular option, or at any particular time. For
some options no secondary  market on an exchange  may exist.  In such event,  it
might not be possible to effect closing transactions in particular options, with
the result  that a fund would have to  exercise  its options in order to realize
any  profit  and  would  incur  transaction  costs  upon the sale of  underlying
securities  pursuant to the exercise of put options. If a fund as a covered call
option writer is unable to effect a closing purchase  transaction in a secondary
market,  it will not be able to see the underlying  currency (or security quoted
or  denominated  in that  currency)  until the option expires or it delivers the
underlying currency upon exercise.

There is no assurance  that higher than  anticipated  trading  activity or other
unforeseen  events might not, at times,  render certain of the facilities of the
Options Clearing Corporation  inadequate,  and thereby result in the institution
by an  exchange  of  special  procedures  which may  interfere  with the  timely
execution of customers' orders.

The High Income Fund and  International  Stock Fund may each  purchase and write
over-the-counter  options  to the  extent  consistent  with  its  limitation  on
investments  in  restricted  securities.  See the "Higher  Risk  Securities  and
Practices"  chart for each  fund's  limitations  on  investments  in  restricted
securities.  Trading in over-the-counter options is subject to the risk that the
other  party will be unable or  unwilling  to  close-out  options  purchased  or
written by the fund.

The  amount of the  premiums  which a fund may pay or receive  may be  adversely
affected as new or existing institutions,  including other investment companies,
engage in or increase their option purchasing and writing activities.

Interest Rate Swaps,  Currency Swaps and Interest Rate Caps, Floors and Collars.
The High Income Fund and  International  Stock Fund may each enter into interest
rate and  currency  swaps for hedging  purposes  and to seek to  increase  total
return.  The High Income  Fund may also enter into  special  interest  rate swap
arrangements  such as caps,  floors and collars for both hedging purposes and to
seek to increase total return. The High Income Fund typically uses interest rate
swaps to shorten the effective  duration of its  portfolio.  Interest rate swaps
involve  the  exchange  by the High  Income  Fund  with  another  party of their
respective commitments to pay or receive interest,  such as an exchange of fixed
rate payments for floating rate payments. Currency swaps involve the exchange by
the funds  with  another  party of their  respective  rights to make or  receive
payments in specified currencies.  The purchase of an interest rate cap entitles
the  purchaser  to receive  from the seller of the cap payments of interest on a
notional  amount equal to the amount by which a specified index exceeds a stated
interest  rate. The purchase of an interest rate floor entitles the purchaser to
receive from the seller of the floor  payments of interest on a notional  amount
equal to the amount by which a specified  index  falls  below a stated  interest
rate.  An  interest  rate  collar is the  combination  of a cap and a floor that
preserves  a certain  return  within a stated  range of  interest  rates.  Since
interest rate swaps,  currency swaps and interest rate caps,  floors and collars
are  individually  negotiated,  these two funds expect to achieve an  acceptable
degree of correlation  between their  portfolio  investments  and their interest
rate or currency swap positions entered into for hedging purposes.

The High Income Fund only enters into interest rate swaps on a net basis,  which
means the two payment streams are netted out, with the fund receiving or paying,
as the case may be, only the net amount of the two payments. Interest rate swaps
do not involve the delivery of  securities,  or underlying  assets or principal.
Accordingly,  the risk of loss with respect to interest rate swaps is limited to
the net amount of interest payments that the fund is contractually  obligated to
make. If the other party to an interest rate swap  defaults,  the fund's risk of
loss  consists  of the  net  amount  of  interest  payments  that  the  fund  is
contractually  entitled to receive. In contrast,  currency swaps usually involve
the  delivery  of the  entire  principal  value of one  designated  currency  in
exchange for the other  designated  currency.  Therefore,  the entire  principal
value of a currency swap is subject to the risk that the other party to the swap
will default on its contractual delivery  obligations.  The Trust maintains in a
segregated  account with its custodian,  cash or liquid  securities equal to the
net  amount,  if  any,  of the  excess  of  each  fund's  obligations  over  its
entitlements  with respect to swap  transactions.  Neither fund enters into swap
transactions unless the unsecured commercial paper, senior debt or claims paying
ability  of the  other  party is  considered  investment  grade  by such  fund's
Investment Adviser.

The use of interest rate and currency swaps (including caps, floors and collars)
is a highly specialized activity which involves investment  techniques and risks
different  from  those   associated  with   traditional   portfolio   securities
activities.  If the fund's  Investment  Adviser is incorrect in its forecasts of
market  values,  interest  rates and currency  exchange  rates,  the  investment
performance  of the High Income Fund or  International  Stock Fund would be less
favorable than it would have been if this investment technique were not used.

Inasmuch as swaps are entered into for good faith hedging purposes or are offset
by a segregated  account as described below,  neither fund's Investment  Adviser
believe  that  swaps  constitute  senior  securities  as defined in the Act and,
accordingly,  will not treat  swaps as being  subject to such  fund's  borrowing
restrictions.  An amount of cash or liquid, high grade debt securities having an
aggregate  net asset  value at least  equal to the entire  amount of the payment
stream  payable by the fund will be  maintained in a sewed account by the fund's
custodian.  A fund will not enter into any interest rate swap  (including  caps,
floors and collars) or currency swap unless the credit  quality of the unsecured
senior debt or the claim paying ability of the other party thereto is considered
to be investment grade by the fund's Investment  Adviser.  If there is a default
by the  other  party to such a  transaction,  the  fund  will  have  contractual
remedies pursuant to the agreement,  related to the transaction. The swap market
has  grown  substantially  in  recent  years  with a large  number  of banks and
investment  banking  firms  acting both as  principals  and as agents  utilizing
standardized  swap  documentation.  As a  result,  the swap  market  has  become
relatively  liquid  comparison  with the markets for other  similar  instruments
which  are  traded  in the  interbank  market.  Nevertheless,  the  staff of the
Commission  takes the position  that  currency  swaps are  illiquid  investments
subject to these funds' 15% limitation on such investments.

Certain Bond Fund Practices

The Bond, High Income and Balanced Funds (collectively, the "Bond Funds") invest
a  significant  portion  of their  assets in debt  securities.  As stated in the
prospectus,  the Bond Fund and Balanced Fund will  emphasize  investment  grade,
primarily  intermediate  term  securities.  If an investment  grade  security is
downgraded  by the rating  agencies  or  otherwise  falls  below the  investment
quality  standards  stated  in  the  prospectus,  management  will  retain  that
instrument  only if management  believes it is in the best interest of the fund.
Management  does not  currently  intend to invest more than ten percent (10%) of
the total  assets of either the Bond Fund or  Balanced  Fund in  corporate  debt
securities which are not in the four highest ratings by Standard & Poor's Rating
Group ("Standard & Poor's") or by Moody's Investors  Service,  Inc.  ("Moody's")
("non-investment  grade" or "junk" securities),  but, on occasion, each fund may
do so. The High Income Fund may invest all of its assets in non-investment grade
securities.  See  "Non-Investment  Grade  Securities" below for a description of
these securities and their attendant risks and "Ratings" below for a description
of the rating categories.

All three Bond Funds may also  invest in debt  options,  interest  rate  futures
contracts,  and  options on interest  rate  futures  contracts,  and may utilize
interest  rate  futures and options to manage the risk of  fluctuating  interest
rates.  These  instruments  will be used to  control  risk or obtain  additional
income and not with a view toward  speculation.  The Bond Fund and Balanced Fund
will invest only in futures and options  which are traded on U.S.  exchanges  or
boards  of trade.  The High  Income  Fund may  invest in  non-U.S.  futures  and
options.

In the debt securities  market,  purchases of some issues are occasionally  made
under firm (forward) commitment  agreements.  Purchases of securities under such
agreements  can  involve  risk of loss  due to  changes  in the  market  rate of
interest  between the commitment  date and the  settlement  date. As a matter of
operating  policy,  no Bond  Fund  will  commit  itself  to  forward  commitment
agreements  in an amount in excess of 25% of total assets and will not engage in
such  agreements  for  leveraging  purposes.  For  purposes of this  limitation,
forward  commitment  agreements are defined as those  agreements  involving more
than five business days between the commitment date and the settlement date.

Lower-Rated Corporate Debt Securities

As described in the  prospectus,  each fund,  other than the Cash Reserves Fund,
may make certain  investments  including  corporate  debt  obligations  that are
unrated or rated in the lower rating categories (i.e., ratings of BB or lower by
Standard & Poor's or Ba or lower by  Moody's).  Bonds rated BB or Ba or below by
Standard & Poors or Moody's (or  comparable  unrated  securities)  are  commonly
referred to as  "lower-rated"  securities or as "junk bonds" and are  considered
speculative and may be questionable  as to principal and interest  payments.  In
some  cases,  such  bonds may be highly  speculative,  have poor  prospects  for
reaching investment standing and be in default. As a result,  investment in such
bonds  will  entail  greater   speculative  risks  than  those  associated  with
investment  in  investment-grade  bonds (i.e.,  bonds rated AAA, AA, A or BBB by
Standard & Poor's or Aaa, Aa, A or Baa by Moody's).  (See "Ratings"  below for a
description of the rating categories.)

An economic  downturn  could  severely  affect the  ability of highly  leveraged
issuers of junk  bonds to  service  their  debt  obligations  or to repay  their
obligations upon maturity.  Factors having an adverse impact on the market value
of lower  rated  securities  will have an  adverse  effect on a fund's net asset
value to the extent it invests in such securities. In addition, a fund may incur
additional expenses to the extent it is required to seek recovery upon a default
in payment of principal or interest on its portfolio holdings.

The  secondary  market  for  junk  bond  securities,  which is  concentrated  in
relatively few market makers,  may not be as liquid as the secondary  market for
more highly rated  securities,  a factor  which may have an adverse  effect on a
fund's  ability to dispose of a particular  security when  necessary to meet its
liquidity  needs.  Under adverse  market or economic  conditions,  the secondary
market for junk bond  securities  could  contract  further,  independent  of any
specific adverse changes in the condition of a particular  issuer.  As a result,
the Investment  Adviser could find it more difficult to sell these securities or
may be able to sell the securities  only at prices lower than if such securities
were widely traded. Prices realized upon the sale of such lower rated or unrated
securities,  under  these  circumstances,  may be less than the  prices  used in
calculating a fund's net asset value.

Since investors  generally perceive that there are greater risks associated with
lower-rated debt  securities,  the yields and prices of such securities may tend
to fluctuate more than those for higher rated  securities.  In the lower quality
segments  of the  fixed-income  securities  market,  changes in  perceptions  of
issuers' creditworthiness tend to occur more frequently and in a more pronounced
manner than do changes in higher quality segments of the fixed-income securities
market resulting in greater yield and price volatility.

Another  factor  which  causes   fluctuations  in  the  prices  of  fixed-income
securities is the supply and demand for similarly rated securities. In addition,
the prices of fixed-income securities fluctuate in response to the general level
of interest rates. Fluctuations in the prices of portfolio securities subsequent
to their  acquisition  will not affect cash income from such securities but will
be reflected in a fund's net asset value.

Lower-rated  (and comparable  non-rated)  securities tend to offer higher yields
than  higher-rated  securities with the same  maturities  because the historical
financial  condition  of the  issuers  of such  securities  may not have been as
strong as that of other issuers.  Since lower rated securities generally involve
greater  risks of loss of income and  principal  than  higher-rated  securities,
investors   should  consider   carefully  the  relative  risks  associated  with
investment in securities  which carry lower ratings and in comparable  non-rated
securities.  In addition to the risk of default,  there are the related costs of
recovery on  defaulted  issues.  The  Investment  Adviser will attempt to reduce
these risks through  diversification  of these funds' portfolios and by analysis
of each issuer and its ability to make timely  payments of income and principal,
as well as broad economic trends in corporate developments.

Other Debt Securities

U.S.  Government  Securities.  All of the funds  may  purchase  U.S.  Government
Securities.  U.S. Government  Securities are obligations issued or guaranteed by
the U.S. Government, its agencies,  authorities or instrumentalities.  Some U.S.
Government  Securities,  such as Treasury bills,  notes and bonds,  which differ
only in their interest rates, maturities and times of issuance, are supported by
the full faith and  credit of the United  States.  Others,  such as  obligations
issued   or   guaranteed   by   U.S.   Government   agencies,   authorities   or
instrumentalities  are supported  either by (a) the full faith and credit of the
U.S. Government (such as securities of the Small Business  Administration),  (b)
the right of the issuer to borrow from the Treasury  (such as  securities of the
Federal Home Loan Banks), (c) the discretionary authority of the U.S. Government
to purchase the agency's obligations (such as securities of the Federal National
Mortgage Association), or (d) only the credit of the issuer. No assurance can be
given that the U.S. Government will provide financial support to U.S. Government
agencies,  authorities  or  instrumentalities  in the  future.  U.S.  Government
Securities may also include zero coupon bonds.

Each fund may also invest in separately traded principal and interest components
of securities  guaranteed or issued by the U.S.  Treasury if such components are
traded  independently  under the  Separate  Trading of  Registered  Interest and
Principal of Securities program ("STRIPS").

Custody  Receipts.  All of the  funds  may also  acquire  securities  issued  or
guaranteed  as to principal and interest by the U.S.  Government,  its agencies,
authorities or instrumentalities in the form of custody receipts.  Such receipts
evidence  ownership of future interest  payments,  principal payments or both on
certain notes or bonds issued by the U.S. Government, its agencies,  authorities
or instrumentalities.  For certain securities law purposes, custody receipts are
not considered obligations of the U.S. Government.

Zero Coupon, Deferred Interest,  Pay-in-Kind and Capital Appreciation Bonds. The
High  Income  Fund  may  invest  in zero  coupon  bonds  as well as in  deferred
interest,  pay-in-kind and capital  appreciation  bonds.  Zero coupon,  deferred
interest,  pay-in-kind and capital appreciation bonds are debt obligations which
are issued at a  significant  discount  from face value.  The original  discount
approximates  the total  amount of interest  the bonds will accrue and  compound
over the period until maturity or the first  interest  accrual date at a rate of
interest reflecting the market rate of the security at the time of issuance.

Zero  coupon  bonds are debt  obligations  that do not entitle the holder to any
periodic  payments of interest prior to maturity or provide for a specified cash
payment date when the bonds begin paying  current  interest.  As a result,  zero
coupon bonds are  generally  issued and traded at a  significant  discount  from
their face value. The discount approximates the present value amount of interest
the bonds would have accrued and compounded over the period until matured.

Zero coupon bonds benefit the issuer by mitigating  its initial need for cash to
meet debt service,  but generally  provide a higher rate of return to compensate
investors  for the  deferment  of cash  interest  or  principal  payments.  Such
securities  are often issued by companies  that may not have the capacity to pay
current  interest  and so may be  considered  to have  more  risk  than  current
interest-bearing  securities. In addition, the market price of zero coupon bonds
generally is more volatile than the market prices of securities that provide for
the  periodic  payment of interest.  The market  prices of zero coupon bonds are
likely to fluctuate  more in response to changes in interest rates than those of
interest-bearing securities having similar maturities and credit quality.

Zero coupon bonds carry the additional risk that, unlike securities that provide
for the  periodic  payment of  interest to  maturity,  the High Income Fund will
realize no cash until a specified  future  payment date unless a portion of such
securities  is sold.  If the issuer of such  securities  defaults,  the fund may
obtain no return at all on their investment.  In addition, the fund's investment
in zero coupon bonds may require it to sell certain of its portfolio  securities
to generate sufficient cash to satisfy certain income distribution requirements.
See "Taxation" below.

While zero  coupon  bonds do not  require  the  periodic  payment  of  interest,
deferred  interest  bonds  generally  provide  for a period of delay  before the
regular payment of interest  begins.  Although this period of delay is different
for each deferred interest bond, a typical period is approximately  one-third of
the bond's terms to maturity.  Pay-in-kind  securities are securities  that have
interest  payable by the delivery of  additional  securities.  Such  investments
benefit the issuer by mitigating its initial need for cash to meet debt service,
but some also  provide a higher  rate of return  to  attract  investors  who are
willing to defer  receipt  of such cash.  Such  investments  experience  greater
volatility  in  market  value  due  to  changes  in  interest  rates  than  debt
obligations which provide for regular payments of interest. The fund will accrue
income on such investments for tax and accounting purposes,  as required,  which
is distributable  to shareholders and which,  because no cash is received at the
time of accrual,  may require the liquidation of other  portfolio  securities to
satisfy the fund's distribution obligations.

Foreign Government  Securities.  All of the funds may invest in debt obligations
of foreign  governments and governmental  agencies,  including those of emerging
countries.  Investment in sovereign debt obligations  involves special risks not
present in debt obligations of corporate issuers.  The issuer of the debt or the
governmental authorities that control the repayment of the debt may be unable or
unwilling to repay  principal or interest when due in accordance  with the terms
of such debt, and the funds may have limited recourse in the event of a default.
Periods of economic uncertainty may result in the volatility of market prices of
sovereign debt, and in turn the fund's net asset value, to a greater extent than
the  volatility  inherent  in debt  obligations  of U.S.  issuers.  A  sovereign
debtor's  willingness or ability to repay principal and pay interest in a timely
manner may be affected by, among other  factors,  its cash flow  situation,  the
extent of its foreign currency reserves,  the availability of sufficient foreign
exchange on the date a payment is due,  the  relative  size of the debt  service
burden to the economy as a whole, the sovereign debtor's policy toward principal
international  lenders and the political constraints to which a sovereign debtor
may be subject.

Structured Securities. The High Income Fund may invest in structured securities.
The value of the principal of and/or  interest on such  securities is determined
by reference  to changes in the value of specific  currencies,  interest  rates,
commodities,  indices or other  financial  indicators  (the  "Reference") or the
relative  change in two or more  References.  The interest rate or the principal
amount  payable  upon  maturity or  redemption  may be  increased  or  decreased
depending upon changes in the applicable Reference.  The terms of the structured
securities  may provide  that in certain  circumstances  no  principal is due at
maturity  and,  therefore,  may  result  in the loss of the  fund's  investment.
Structured   securities  may  be  positively  or  negatively  indexed,  so  that
appreciation  of the  Reference  may  produce an  increase  or  decrease  in the
interest  rate or value of the  security at maturity.  In  addition,  changes in
interest  rates or the value of the  security at  maturity  may be a multiple of
changes in the value of the Reference.  Consequently,  structured securities may
entail a  greater  degree  of  market  risk  than  other  types of  fixed-income
securities.  Structured  securities may also be more  volatile,  less liquid and
more difficult to accurately price than less complex fixed-income investments.

Convertible Securities


The Balanced,  High Income, Growth and Income,  Capital  Appreciation,  Emerging
Growth and International Stock Funds may each invest in convertible  securities.
Convertible  securities may include  corporate  notes or preferred stock but are
ordinarily a long-term  debt  obligation of the issuer  convertible  at a stated
conversion  rate  into  common  stock  of the  issuer.  As  with  all  debt  and
income-bearing  securities,  the market value of convertible securities tends to
decline as interest  rates  increase  and,  conversely,  to increase as interest
rates decline. Convertible securities generally offer lower interest or dividend
yields than  non-convertible  securities of similar quality.  However,  when the
market price of the common stock  underlying a convertible  security exceeds the
conversion  price,  the price of the  convertible  security tends to reflect the
value of the  underlying  common  stock.  As the market price of the  underlying
common stock declines, the convertible security tends to trade increasingly on a
yield  basis,  and thus may not  decline  in  price  to the same  extent  as the
underlying common stock.  Convertible securities rank senior to common stocks in
an issuer's capital  structure and are consequently of higher quality and entail
less risk than the issuer's common stock. In evaluating a convertible  security,
the fund's  Investment  Adviser gives primary emphasis to the  attractiveness of
the underlying common stock. The convertible securities in which the High Income
Fund invests are not subject to any minimum  rating  criteria.  The  convertible
debt  securities  in which the other  funds may invest  are  subject to the same
rating criteria as that fund's investments in  non-convertible  debt securities.
Convertible debt securities,  the market yields of which are substantially below
prevailing yields on  non-convertible  debt securities of comparable quality and
maturity,  are  treated  as  equity  securities  for the  purposes  of a  fund's
investment policies or restrictions.


Repurchase Agreements

Each fund may enter into repurchase  agreements.  In a repurchase  agreement,  a
security is  purchased  for a relatively  short period  (usually not more than 7
days)  subject to the  obligation  to sell it back to the issuer at a fixed time
and price plus accrued interest. The funds will enter into repurchase agreements
only with member banks of the Federal Reserve System and with "primary  dealers"
in U.S. Government securities.  The Investment Adviser will continuously monitor
the  creditworthiness  of the parties with whom the funds enter into  repurchase
agreements.

The Trust has established a procedure  providing that the securities  serving as
collateral  for each  repurchase  agreement  must be  delivered  to the  Trust's
custodian  either  physically or in book-entry form and that the collateral must
be marked to market  daily to ensure  that each  repurchase  agreement  is fully
collateralized  at all times.  In the event of  bankruptcy or other default by a
seller of a repurchase agreement,  a fund could experience delays in liquidating
the underlying  securities  during the period in which the fund seeks to enforce
its rights thereto,  possible  subnormal levels of income,  declines in value of
the underlying securities or lack of access to income during this period and the
expense of enforcing its rights.

Reverse Repurchase Agreements

Each fund may also enter into reverse  repurchase  agreements  which involve the
sale of U.S.  Government  securities  held in its  portfolio  to a bank  with an
agreement that the fund will buy back the securities at a fixed future date at a
fixed price plus an agreed  amount of  "interest"  which may be reflected in the
repurchase price. Reverse repurchase  agreements are considered to be borrowings
by the fund entering into them. Reverse  repurchase  agreements involve the risk
that the market value of  securities  purchased by the fund with proceeds of the
transaction may decline below the repurchase price of the securities sold by the
fund which it is obligated to repurchase. A fund that has entered into a reverse
repurchase  agreement  will also continue to be subject to the risk of a decline
in the market value of the securities sold under the agreements  because it will
reacquire those securities upon effecting their repurchase.  To minimize various
risks associated with reverse  repurchase  agreements,  each fund will establish
and maintain with the Trust's custodian a separate account  consisting of liquid
securities,  of any  type or  maturity,  in an  amount  at  least  equal  to the
repurchase  prices of the securities (plus any accrued  interest  thereon) under
such agreements. No fund will enter into reverse repurchase agreements and other
borrowings (except from banks as a temporary measure for extraordinary emergency
purposes) in amounts in excess of 30% of the fund's total assets  (including the
amount  borrowed) taken at market value. No fund will use leverage to attempt to
increase income. No fund will purchase  securities while outstanding  borrowings
exceed  5% of the  fund's  total  assets.  Each  fund will  enter  into  reverse
repurchase  agreements  only with federally  insured banks which are approved in
advance as being creditworthy by the Trustees.  Under procedures  established by
the Trustees,  the Investment Adviser will monitor the  creditworthiness  of the
banks involved.

Government Securities

Certain U.S.  Government  securities,  including U.S. Treasury bills,  notes and
bonds,  and  Government  National  Mortgage  Association  certificates  ("Ginnie
Maes"),  are  supported by the full faith and credit of the U.S.  Certain  other
U.S.  Government  securities,  issued  or  guaranteed  by  Federal  agencies  or
government sponsored enterprises, are not supported by the full faith and credit
of the U.S.,  but may be supported by the right of the issuer to borrow from the
U.S.  Treasury.  These securities  include  obligations of the Federal Home Loan
Mortgage Corporation  ("Freddie Macs"), and obligations  supported by the credit
of the  instrumentality,  such as Federal National  Mortgage  Association  Bonds
("Fannie Maes"). No assurance can be given that the U.S. Government will provide
financial support to such Federal agencies,  authorities,  instrumentalities and
government sponsored enterprises in the future.

Ginnie Maes, Freddie Macs and Fannie Maes are  mortgage-backed  securities which
provide monthly payments which are, in effect,  a "pass-through"  of the monthly
interest and principal  payments  (including any prepayments) made by individual
borrowers on the pooled  mortgage  loans.  Collateralized  mortgage  obligations
("CMOs") in which the fund may invest are securities  issued by a corporation or
a U.S.  Government  instrumentality  that are  collateralized  by a portfolio of
mortgages or mortgage-backed securities.  Mortgage-backed securities may be less
effective than  traditional  debt obligations of similar maturity at maintaining
yields during periods of declining  interest rates.  (See  "Mortgage-Backed  and
Asset-Backed Securities.")

Forward Commitment and When-Issued Securities

Each fund may purchase  securities on a when-issued or forward commitment basis.
"When-issued"  refers to  securities  whose terms are  available and for which a
market  exists,  but  which  have not been  issued.  Each  fund  will  engage in
when-issued  transactions with respect to securities purchased for its portfolio
in order to obtain what is considered to be an  advantageous  price and yield at
the time of the transaction.  For when-issued  transactions,  no payment is made
until  delivery is due,  often a month or more after the purchase.  In a forward
commitment  transaction,  a fund  contracts to purchase  securities  for a fixed
price at a future date beyond customary settlement time.

When a fund  engages in forward  commitment  and  when-issued  transactions,  it
relies on the seller to consummate the transaction. The failure of the issuer or
seller to  consummate  the  transaction  may  result in the  fund's  losing  the
opportunity  to obtain a price  and yield  considered  to be  advantageous.  The
purchase  of  securities  on a  when-issued  or  forward  commitment  basis also
involves a risk of loss if the value of the  security to be  purchased  declines
prior to the settlement date.

On the  date a fund  enters  into  an  agreement  to  purchase  securities  on a
when-issued or forward  commitment  basis, the fund will segregate in a separate
account cash or liquid  securities,  of any type or maturity,  equal in value to
the  fund's  commitment.  These  assets  will be  valued  daily at  market,  and
additional  cash or securities  will be segregated in a separate  account to the
extent  that the total  value of the assets in the  account  declines  below the
amount of the  when-issued  commitments.  Alternatively,  a fund may enter  into
offsetting contracts for the forward sale of other securities that it owns.

Mortgage-Backed and Asset-Backed Securities

The Bond,  Balanced,  High  Income and  Growth  and  Income  Funds may invest in
mortgage-backed securities, which represent direct or indirect participation in,
or are  collateralized  by and  payable  from,  mortgage  loans  secured by real
property.  These  funds  may  also  invest  in  asset-backed  securities,  which
represent  participation  in, or are secured by and payable from, assets such as
motor vehicle installment sales,  installment loan contracts,  leases of various
types of real and personal  property,  receivables  from revolving credit (i.e.,
credit card)  agreements and other  categories of  receivables.  Such assets are
securitized though the use of trusts and special purpose corporations.  Payments
or  distributions  of principal  and interest  may be  guaranteed  up to certain
amounts and for a certain time period by a letter of credit or a pool  insurance
policy issued by a credit union or other financial institution unaffiliated with
the Trust, or other credit enhancements may be present.

Mortgage-backed  and  asset-backed  securities  are often  subject to more rapid
repayment  than their  stated  maturity  date would  indicate as a result of the
pass-through  of  prepayments  of principal on the  underlying  loans.  A fund's
ability to maintain  positions in such securities will be affected by reductions
in the principal amount of such securities  resulting from prepayments,  and its
ability to reinvest the returns of principal at comparable  yields is subject to
generally  prevailing  interest  rates at that time.  To the extent  that a fund
invests  in  mortgage-backed  and  asset-backed  securities,  the  values of its
portfolio  securities  will vary with changes in market interest rates generally
and  the  differentials  in  yields  among  various  kinds  of  U.S.  Government
securities and other mortgage-backed and asset-backed securities.

Asset-backed  securities present certain additional risks that are not presented
by mortgage backed securities because  asset-backed  securities generally do not
have the benefit of a security  interest in  collateral  that is  comparable  to
mortgage assets. Credit card receivables are generally unsecured and the debtors
on such  receivables  are  entitled to the  protection  of a number of state and
federal  consumer  credit  laws,  many of which give such  debtors  the right to
set-off certain amounts owed on the credit cards,  thereby  reducing the balance
due.  Automobile  receivables  generally are secured,  but by automobiles rather
than residential real property.  Most issuers of automobile  receivables  permit
the loan servicers to retain  possession of the underlying  obligations.  If the
servicer were to sell these  obligations to another party,  there is a risk that
the  purchaser  would secure an interest  superior to that of the holders of the
asset-backed  securities.  In addition,  because of the large number of vehicles
involved in a typical issuance and technical  requirements under state laws, the
trustee  for the  holders of the  automobile  receivables  may not have a proper
security  interest  in  the  underlying  automobiles.  Therefore,  there  is the
possibility that, in some cases, recoveries on repossessed collateral may not be
available to support payments on these securities.

The  Cash  Reserves  Fund  and  Bond  Fund may  invest  in  mortgage-backed  and
asset-backed  securities that represent  mortgage,  commercial or consumer loans
originated  by credit  unions or other  financial  institutions.  To the  extent
permitted by law and available in the market,  such investments may constitute a
significant  portion of each  fund's  investments.  Subject  to the  appropriate
regulatory  approvals,  the  Cash  Reserves  Fund and  Bond  Fund  may  purchase
securities issued by pools that are structured, serviced, or otherwise supported
by CIMCO or its affiliates.

Other Securities Related to Mortgages

Mortgage  Pass-Through  Securities.  The High Income Fund may invest in mortgage
pass-through   securities.   Mortgage  pass-through  securities  are  securities
representing  interests  in "pools"  of  mortgage  loans.  Monthly  payments  of
interest and  principal  by the  individual  borrowers  on mortgages  are passed
through  to the  holders  of the  securities  (net of fees  paid to the issue or
guarantor of the  securities) as the mortgages in the underlying  mortgage pools
are paid off. The average lives of mortgage pass-through securities are variable
when issued because their average lives depend on prepayment  rates. The average
life of these securities is likely to be substantially shorter than their stated
final maturity as a result of unscheduled principal  prepayment.  Prepayments on
underlying mortgages result in a loss of anticipated  interest,  and all or part
of a premium if any has been paid, and the actual yield (or total return) to the
holder of a pass-through security may be different than the quoted yield on such
security.  Mortgage  prepayments  generally increase with falling interest rates
and decrease with rising  interest  rates.  Like other fixed income  securities,
when interest rates rise the value of a mortgage  pass-though security generally
will decline;  however, when interest rates are declining, the value of mortgage
pass-through  securities  with  prepayment  features may not increase as much as
that of other fixed income  securities.  Interests in pools or  mortgage-related
securities  differ from other forms of debt  securities,  which normally provide
for periodic  payment of interest in fixed  amounts with  principal  payments at
maturity or specified call dates.  Instead,  these securities  provide a monthly
payment which consists of both interest and principal payments. In effect, these
payments are a  "pass-through"  of the monthly  payments made by the  individual
borrowers  on their  mortgage  loans,  net of any  fees  paid to the  issuer  or
guarantor of such securities.  Additional  payments are caused by prepayments of
principal resulting from the sale,  refinancing or foreclosure of the underlying
property, net of fees or costs which may be incurred. Some mortgage pass-through
securities  (such as  securities  issued  by the  Government  National  Mortgage
Association ("GNMA"), are described as "modified pass-through." These securities
entitle the holder to receive all interests and principal  payments owned on the
mortgages in the mortgage  pool,  net of certain fees, at the scheduled  payment
dates regardless of whether the mortgagor actually makes the payment.

The  principal  governmental  guarantor of mortgage  pass-through  securities is
GNMA. GNMA is a wholly owned U.S.  Government  corporation within the Department
of Housing and Urban Development. GNMA is authorized to guarantee, with the full
faith and credit of the U.S.  Government,  the timely  payment of principal  and
interest on securities issued by institutions  approved by GNMA (such as savings
and loan  institutions,  commercial  banks and  mortgage  bankers) and backed by
pools of Federal  Housing  Administration-insured  or  Veteran's  Administration
("VA")-guaranteed  mortgages.  These  guarantees,  however,  do not apply to the
market value or yield of mortgage pass-through  securities.  GNMA securities are
often  purchased  at a  premium  over  the  maturity  value  of  the  underlying
mortgages. This premium is not guaranteed and will be lost if prepayment occurs.

Government-related guarantors (i.e., whose guarantees are not backed by the full
faith and credit of the U.S.  Government)  include the Federal National Mortgage
Association ("FNMA") and the Federal Home Loan Mortgage  Corporation  ("FHLMC").
FNMA  is  a   government-sponsored   corporation   owned   entirely  by  private
stockholders.  It is subject to general  regulation  by the Secretary of Housing
and Urban Development.  FNMA purchases conventional residential mortgages (i.e.,
mortgages not insured or guaranteed by any  governmental  agency) from a list of
approved seller/services which include state and federally-chartered savings and
loan  associations,  mutual savings banks,  commercial banks,  credit unions and
mortgage  bankers.  Pass-through  securities issued by FNMA are guaranteed as to
timely payment by FNMA of principal and interest.

FHLMC was created by Congress in 1970 as a corporate instrumentality of the U.S.
Government for the purpose of increasing the availability of mortgage credit for
residential  housing.  FHLMC issues  Participation  Certificates  ("PCS")  which
represent  interest in conventional  mortgages (i.e.,  not federally  insured or
guaranteed) from FHLMC's national portfolio.  FHLMC guarantees timely payment of
interest and ultimate  collection  of principal  regardless of the status of the
underlying mortgage loans.

Credit unions, commercial banks, savings and loan institutions, private mortgage
insurance  companies,  mortgage  bankers and other secondary market issuers also
create  pass-through  pools of  mortgage  loans.  Such  issuers  may also be the
originators  and/or  servicers of the  underlying  mortgage-related  securities.
Pools created by such non-governmental  issuers generally offer a higher rate of
interest  than  government  and  government-related  pools  because there are no
direct or indirect  government  or agency  guarantees  of payments in the former
pools.  However,  timely  payment of interest and principal of mortgage loans in
these  pools may be  supported  by various  forms of  insurance  or  guarantees,
including  individual  loan,  title,  pool and hazard  insurance  and letters of
credit.  The  insurance  and  guarantees  are issued by  governmental  entities,
private  insurers and the mortgage  poolers.  There can be no assurance that the
private  insurers or guarantors can meet their  obligations  under the insurance
policies  or  guarantee  arrangements.   The  High  Income  Fund  may  also  buy
mortgage-related securities without insurance or guarantees.

Collateralized Mortgage Obligations and Multiclass Pass-Through Securities.  The
High Income Fund may invest a portion of its assets in  collateralized  mortgage
obligations or "CMOs",  which are debt  obligations  collateralized  by mortgage
loans or mortgage pass-through securities. Typically, CMOs are collateralized by
certificates  issued by GNMA, FNMA or FHLMC, but also may be  collateralized  by
whole  loans  or  private  mortgage  pass-through  securities  (such  collateral
collectively hereinafter referred to as "Mortgage Assets"). The High Income Fund
may also invest a portion of its assets in  multiclass  pass-through  securities
which are equity  interests in a trust composed of Mortgage  Assets.  Unless the
context indicates  otherwise,  all references herein to CMOs include  multiclass
pass-through  securities.  Payments of principal of and interest on the Mortgage
Assets,  and any  reinvestment  income  thereon,  provide  the funds to pay debt
service  on  the  CMOs  or  make  scheduled   distributions  on  the  multiclass
pass-through securities.  CMOs may be issued by agencies or instrumentalities of
the United  States  government  or by private  originators  of, or investors in,
mortgage loans, including credit unions, savings and loan associations, mortgage
banks,  commercial banks,  investment banks and special purpose  subsidiaries of
the foregoing.  The issuer of a series of CMOs may elect to be treated as a Real
Estate Mortgage Investment Conduit (a "REMIC").

In a CMO,  a series of bonds or  certificates  are  usually  issued in  multiple
classes with different  maturities.  Each class of CMOs,  often referred to as a
"tranch", is issued at a specific fixed or floating coupon rate and has a stated
maturity or final  distribution  date.  Principal  prepayments  on the  Mortgage
Assets may cause the CMOs to be retired  substantially earlier than their stated
maturities or final distribution dates,  resulting in a loss of all or a part of
the premium if any has been paid.  Interest is paid or accrues on all classes of
the CMOs on a monthly,  quarterly  or  semiannual  basis.  The  principal of and
interest on the Mortgage  Assets may be allocated among the several classes of a
series  of a CMO  in  innumerable  ways.  In a  common  structure,  payments  of
principal,  including any  principal  pre-payments,  on the Mortgage  Assets are
applied to the  classes of the series of a CMO in the order of their  respective
stated maturities or final  distribution  dates, so that no payment of principal
will be made on any  class of CMOs  until all other  classes  having an  earlier
stated maturity or final  distribution date have been paid in full. Certain CMOs
may be stripped  (securities which provide only the principal or interest factor
of the underlying security). See "Stripped Mortgage-Backed Securities" below for
a  discussion  of the risks of  investing in these  stripped  securities  and of
investing  in classes  consisting  primarily  of interest  payments or principal
payments.

The  High  Income  Fund may  also  invest  in  parallel  pay  CMOs  and  Planned
Amortization  Class CMOs ("PAC  Bonds").  Parallel  pay CMOs are  structured  to
provide payments of principal on each payment date to more than one class. These
simultaneous  payments are taken into account in calculating the stated maturity
date or  final  distribution  date of  each  class,  which,  as with  other  CMO
structures,  must be retired by its stated  maturity date or final  distribution
date, but may be retired  earlier.  PAC Bonds  generally  require  payments of a
specified  amount of  principal  on each  payment  date.  PAC  Bonds are  always
parallel pay CMOs with the required  principal payment on such securities having
the highest priority after interest has been paid to all classes.

Stripped Mortgage-Backed  Securities.  The High Income Fund may invest a portion
of  its  assets  in  stripped  mortgage-backed  securities  ("SMBS")  which  are
derivative    multiclass    mortgage    securities   issued   by   agencies   or
instrumentalities  of the United States government or by private originators of,
or  investors  in,  mortgage  loans,  including  savings and loan  associations,
mortgage banks, commercial banks and investment banks.

SMBS are usually structured with two classes that receive different  proportions
of the interest and principal  distributions  from a pool of Mortgage  Assets. A
common type of SMBS will have one class  receiving some of the interest and most
of the principal from the Mortgage Assets,  while another class receives most of
the interest and the remainder of the  principal.  In the most extreme case, one
class will receive an "IO" (the right to receive all of the interest)  while the
other class will receive a "PO" (the right to receive all of the principal). The
yield to  maturity  on an IO is  extremely  sensitive  to the rate of  principal
payments (including  prepayments) on the related underlying Mortgage Assets, and
a rapid rate of principal  payments may have a material  adverse  effect on such
security's  yield to maturity.  If the  underlying  Mortgage  Assets  experience
greater than anticipated prepayments of principal, the High Income Fund may fail
to fully recoup its initial investment in these securities.  The market value of
the class consisting  primarily or entirely of principal  payments  generally is
unusually  volatile in response to changes in interest rates.  Because SMBS were
only recently introduced,  established trading markets for these securities have
not yet  developed,  although  the  securities  are traded  among  institutional
investors and investment banking firms.

Mortgage  Dollar  Rolls.  The High Income Fund may enter into  mortgage  "dollar
rolls" in which the fund sells  securities for delivery in the current month and
simultaneously  contracts with the same counterparty to repurchase substantially
similar  (same type,  coupon and  maturity)  but not  identical  securities on a
specified  future  date.  During  the roll  period,  the fund loses the right to
receive  principal and interest paid on the securities sold.  However,  the fund
would benefit to the extent of any difference between the price received for the
securities  sold and the lower  forward  price for the  future  purchase  or fee
income plus the  interest  earned on the cash  proceeds of the  securities  sold
until the settlement date for the forward purchase.  Unless such benefits exceed
the income,  capital  appreciation and gain or loss due to mortgage  prepayments
that would have been  realized on the  securities  sold as part of the  mortgage
dollar roll, the use of this technique will diminish the investment  performance
of the fund. Successful use of mortgage dollar rolls depends upon the Investment
Adviser's ability to predict correctly interest rates and mortgage  prepayments.
There is no assurance that mortgage dollar rolls can be  successfully  employed.
The fund will hold and maintain in a  segregated  account  until the  settlement
date cash or liquid assets in an amount equal to the forward purchase price. For
financial reporting and tax purposes,  each fund treats mortgage dollar rolls as
two  separate  transactions;  one  involving  the  purchase of a security  and a
separate  transaction  involving a sale.  The fund does not currently  intend to
enter into mortgage dollar rolls that are accounted for as a financing.

Real Estate Investment Trusts

The Bond, Balanced, High Income and Growth and Income Funds may invest in shares
of real estate investment trusts ("REITs"). REITs are pooled investment vehicles
that invest  primarily in income  producing  real estate or real estate  related
loans or  interests.  REITs are generally  classified as equity REITs,  mortgage
REITs or a  combination  of equity and mortgage  REITs.  Equity REITs invest the
majority of their assets  directly in real property and derive income  primarily
from the  collection  of rents.  Equity REITs can also realize  capital gains by
selling  properties  that have  appreciated in value.  Mortgage REITs invest the
majority of their  assets in real estate  mortgages  and derive  income from the
collection of interest  payments.  REITs are not taxed on income  distributed to
shareholders  provided they comply with several requirements of the Code. A fund
will  indirectly bear its  proportionate  share of any expenses paid by REITs in
which it invests in addition to the expenses paid by a fund.

Investing in REITs involves  certain unique risks.  Equity REITs may be affected
by changes in the value of the underlying  property  owned by such REITs,  while
mortgage REITs may be affected by the quality of any credit extended.  REITs are
dependent upon management skills, are not diversified  (except to the extent the
Code requires),  and are subject to the risks of financing  projects.  REITs are
subject to heavy cash flow dependency,  default by borrowers,  self-liquidation,
and the  possibilities  of  failing to qualify  for the  exemption  from tax for
distributed  income under the Code and failing to maintain their exemptions from
the  Investment  Company  Act of  1940,  as  amended  (the  "1940  Act").  REITs
(especially mortgage REITS) are also subject to interest rate risks.

Practices that are Authorized but not Presently Employed

No fund (other than the  International  Stock Fund) has a current  intention  of
investing in options, financial futures, stock index futures and related options
in the foreseeable  future.  No fund has a current  intention of engaging in the
lending of portfolio  securities in the foreseeable future. If any fund uses one
of these  practices in the  foreseeable  future,  no more than 10% of the fund's
total assets will be at risk thereby.

All  of  the  funds  may  invest  in  foreign  securities,   although  only  the
International Stock Fund and the High Income Fund are expected to do so with any
regularity.  However,  all of the funds  may,  and are  expected  to,  invest in
American Depository  Receipts ("ADRs") traded on U.S. exchanges.  ADRs represent
shares of foreign  issues  traded on foreign  exchanges and may have many of the
risks associated with foreign securities.

If a fund  enters  into  futures  contracts  or call  options  thereon,  reverse
repurchase   agreements,   firm  commitment  agreements  or  standby  commitment
agreements,  the fund  will  obtain  approval  from the  Board  of  Trustees  to
establish a segregated account with the fund's custodian. The segregated account
will hold liquid assets and the cash value of the segregated account will be not
less than the market value of the futures  contracts  and call options  thereon,
reverse repurchase agreements, firm commitment agreements and standby commitment
agreements.

Types of Investment Risk

Correlation Risk. The risk that changes in the value of a hedging  instrument or
hedging technique will not match those of the asset being hedged (hedging is the
use of one  investment  to  offset  the  possible  adverse  effects  of  another
investment).

Credit Risk. The risk that the issuer of a security,  or the  counterparty  to a
contract, will default or otherwise not honor a financial obligation.

Currency Risk. The risk that fluctuations in the exchange rates between the U.S.
dollar and foreign  currencies may negatively affect the U.S. dollar value of an
investment.

Extension  Risk. The risk that an unexpected  rise in prevailing  interest rates
will extend the life of an outstanding  mortgage-backed security by reducing the
expected  number of mortgage  prepayments,  typically  reducing  the  security's
value.

Hedging  Risk.  When a fund  hedges  an  asset it  holds  (typically  by using a
derivative contract or derivative  security),  any gain or loss generated by the
hedge  should be  substantially  offset by losses or gains on the hedged  asset.
Hedging is a useful way to reduce or  eliminate  risk of loss,  but it will also
reduce or eliminate the potential for investment gains.

Information  Risk. The risk that key  information  about a security or market is
inaccurate or unavailable.

Interest  Rate Risk.  The risk of declines in market value of an income  bearing
investment  due  to  changes  in  prevailing  interest  rates.  With  fixed-rate
securities,  a rise in  interest  rates  typically  causes a  decline  in market
values,  while a fall in interest rates  typically  causes an increase in market
values.

Leverage Risk. The risks associated with securities or investment practices that
enhance return (or loss) without  increasing  the amount of investment,  such as
buying securities on margin or using certain derivative  contracts or derivative
securities.  A fund's gain or loss on a leveraged  position  may be greater than
the actual market gain or loss in the underlying security or instrument.  A fund
may also incur additional costs in taking a leveraged position (such as interest
on borrowings) that may not be incurred in taking a non-leveraged position.

Liquidity  Risk. The risk that certain  securities or other  investments  may be
difficult or  impossible to sell at the time the fund would like to sell them or
at the price the fund values them.

Management Risk. The risk that a strategy used by a fund's investment adviser or
subadviser may fail to produce
the intended result. This risk is common to all mutual funds.

Market Risk.  The risk that the market value of a security may move up and down,
sometimes rapidly and unpredictably, due to factors that have nothing to do with
the  issuer.  This risk is common to all stocks  and bonds and the mutual  funds
that invest in them.

Natural Event Risk. The risk of losses  attributable to natural disasters,  crop
failures and similar events.

Opportunity Risk. The risk of missing out on an investment  opportunity  because
the assets  necessary to take  advantage of it are tied up in less  advantageous
investments.

Political Risk. The risk of losses directly  attributable to government  actions
or political events of any sort.

Prepayment  Risk. The risk that an unexpected fall in prevailing  interest rates
will shorten the life of an outstanding  mortgage-backed  security by increasing
the expected  number of mortgage  prepayments,  thereby  reducing the security's
return.

Speculation Risk.  Speculation is the assumption of risk in anticipation of gain
but recognizing a higher than average  possibility of loss. To the extent that a
derivative contract or derivative security is used speculatively (i.e., not used
as a  hedge),  the fund is  directly  exposed  to the  risks of that  derivative
contract or security. Gains or losses from speculative positions in a derivative
contract or security may be substantially  greater than the derivative  contract
or security's original cost.

Valuation  Risk.  The  risk  that  the  market  value  of  an  investment  falls
substantially below the fund's valuation of the investment.

INVESTMENT LIMITATIONS

The Trust has adopted the following  restrictions  and policies  relating to the
investment of assets and the activities of each fund. The following restrictions
are  fundamental  and may not be changed for a fund  without the approval of the
holders  of a majority  of the  outstanding  votes of that fund  (which for this
purpose and under the 1940 Act means the lesser of (i) sixty-seven percent (67%)
of the  outstanding  votes  attributable  to shares  represented at a meeting at
which more than fifty percent (50%) of the  outstanding  votes  attributable  to
shares are  represented or (ii) more than fifty percent (50%) of the outstanding
votes attributable to shares). No fund may:

(1)  with respect to 75% of the fund's total assets,  purchase  securities of an
     issuer (other than the U.S. Government, its agencies or instrumentalities),
     if (i) such  purchase  would cause more than 5% of the fund's  total assets
     taken at market value to be invested in the  securities of such issuer,  or
     (ii)  such  purchase  would  at the  time  result  in more  than 10% of the
     outstanding voting securities of such issuer being held by the fund;

(2)  invest  25% or more of its total  assets in the  securities  of one or more
     issuers conducting their principal business activities in the same industry
     (excluding   the   U.S.    Government   or   any   of   its   agencies   or
     instrumentalities);

(3)  borrow money,  except (a) the fund may borrow from banks (as defined in the
     1940 Act) as through reverse repurchase  agreements in amounts up to 30% of
     its total assets (including the amount borrowed),  (b) the fund may, to the
     extent  permitted by applicable  law,  borrow up to an additional 5% of its

(5)  underwrite  securities issued by others, except to the extent that the sale

(6)  purchase,  hold or deal in real  estate,  although a fund may  purchase and

(1)  sell  securities  short or maintain a short position except for short sales
     against the box; or

(2)  invest in foreign securities in excess of the following  percentages of the
     value of its total assets:


     Cash Reserves Fund         25%, but limited to U.S. dollar denominated
                                     foreign money market securities
     Bond Fund                  20%
     Balanced Fund              25%
     High Income Fund           50%
     Growth and Income Fund     25%
     Capital Appreciation Fund  25%
     Emerging Growth Fund       25%
     International Stock Fund   100%


(3)  purchase any security which is not readily marketable if more than 15% (10%
     for the Cash Reserves,  Growth and Income, and Capital  Appreciation Funds)
     of the net assets of the fund taken at market  value,  would be invested in
     such securities.

Except for the  limitations  on borrowing  from banks,  if the above  percentage
restrictions  are  adhered to at the time of  investment,  a later  increase  or
decrease in such  percentage  resulting from a change in values of securities or
amount of net assets will not be  considered a violation of any of the foregoing
restrictions.

TEMPORARY DEFENSIVE POSITIONS

Although  each fund expects to pursue its  investment  objective  utilizing  its
principal investment strategies  regardless of market conditions,  each fund may
invest up to 100% in money market  securities as a defensive  tactic in abnormal
market conditions.

PORTFOLIO TURNOVER

While  the  Cash  Reserves  Fund is not  subject  to  specific  restrictions  on
portfolio  turnover,  it generally does not seek profits by short-term  trading.
However,  it may dispose of a portfolio  security  prior to its  maturity  where
disposition seems advisable because of a revised credit evaluation of the issuer
or other considerations. Because money market instruments have short maturities,
the Cash  Reserves  Fund expects to have a high  portfolio  turnover,  but since
brokerage commissions are not customarily charged on money market instruments, a
high turnover should not affect the fund's NAV or net investment income.


Each fund (other than the Cash Reserves Fund) will trade  securities  held by it
whenever,  in the Investment  Adviser's view, changes are appropriate to achieve
the stated  investment  objectives.  Other than the Bond and Balanced Funds, the
Investment  Adviser does not anticipate that unusual portfolio  turnover will be
required and intends to keep such turnover to moderate  levels  consistent  with
the  objectives  of  each  fund.   Although  the  Investment  Adviser  makes  no
assurances, it is expected that the annual portfolio turnover rate for each fund
(other than the Bond and Balanced  Funds) will be generally less than 100%. This
would mean that normally less than 100% of the securities held by the fund would
be replaced in any one year (excluding  turnover of securities having a maturity
of one year or less). Conversely, the Bond and Balanced Funds turnover rates are
much higher than in past years.  The Investment  Adviser  anticipates  that this
increased  turnover will  continue in the future and rates may exceed 100%.  The
increased  turnover  results  from a more  aggressive  management  style to take
fuller  advantage  of  opportunities  in the  bond  market.  In  the  Investment
Adviser's  view,  market  illiquidity  and dealer risk aversion  have  distorted
traditional trading relationships.  More specifically, the turnover has recently
exceeded 500% as the Investment  Adviser has actively swapped between  different
bonds it believe are mispriced.


MANAGEMENT OF THE TRUST

MEMBERS Funds are governed by a Board of Trustees.  The Trustees have the duties
and  responsibilities  set  forth  under  the  applicable  laws of the  State of
Delaware,  including but not limited to the  management  and  supervision of the
funds.

The board,  from time to time, may include  individuals  who may be deemed to be
affiliated  persons of CIMCO,  the fund's adviser.  At all times,  however,  the
majority of board members will not be affiliated with CIMCO or the funds.

The funds do not hold annual shareholder meetings, but may hold special meetings
for such purposes as electing or removing  board members,  changing  fundamental
policies, approving certain management contracts,  approving or amending a 12b-1
plan, or as otherwise required by the 1940 Act.

terminated,  shall  continue  until  two  years  from  its  effective  date  and
thereafter shall continue automatically for periods of one calendar year so long
as such  continuance  is  specifically  approved at least  annually:  (a) by the
Trustees or by a vote of a majority of the outstanding votes attributable to the
shares of the class representing an interest in the fund; and (b) by a vote of a
majority of those  Trustees who are not parties to the  Management  Agreement or
interested persons of any such party, cast in person at a meeting called for the
purpose of voting on such  approval,  provided the  Management  Agreement may be
terminated as to any fund or to all funds by the Trust at any time,  without the
payment of any  penalty,  by vote of a majority of the Trustees or by a majority
vote of the outstanding votes  attributable to the shares of the applicable fund
or by CIMCO on sixty (60) days written notice to the other party. The Management
Agreement will terminate automatically in the event of its assignment.

The Management Agreement provides that CIMCO shall not be liable to the Trust or
any  shareholder  for anything done or omitted by it, or for any losses that may
be sustained in the purchase, holding or sale of any security, except for an act
or omission  involving willful  misfeasance,  bad faith,  gross  negligence,  or
reckless disregard of the duties imposed upon it by the Management Agreement.

The Management Agreements with Subadvisers


As described  in the  prospectus,  CIMCO  manages the assets of the High Income,
Emerging  Growth and  International  Stock Funds  using a "manager of  managers"
approach  under  which CIMCO  allocates  each  fund's  assets  among one or more
"specialist"  subadvisers  (each,  a  "Subadviser").  The Trust  and CIMCO  have
received an order from the  Commission  that  permits the hiring of  Subadvisers
without  shareholder  approval.  If CIMCO hires a new Subadviser pursuant to the
order  shareholders will receive an "information  statement" within 90 days of a
change in Subadvisers that will provide relevant  information  about the reasons
for the change and any new Subadviser(s).

Even though  Subadvisers have day-to-day  responsibility  over the management of
High Income,  Emerging Growth and International  Stock Funds,  CIMCO retains the
ultimate  responsibility for the performance of these funds and will oversee the
Subadvisers and recommend their hiring, termination, and replacement.

CIMCO may, at some future time,  employ a  subadvisory  or "manager of managers"
approach to other new or existing funds in addition to the High Income, Emerging
Growth and International Stock Funds.


The Subadviser for the High Income Fund

As of the date of the prospectus, Massachusetts Financial Services Company (MFS)
is the only  subadviser  managing  the assets of the High Income  Fund.  For its

accrued daily and paid monthly, at the following annual rates:

         Percentage        Net Assets Managed by MFS
         0.400%            First $10,000,000
         0.375%            Next $90,000,000
         0.350%            Next $150,000,000

Pursuant to the above formula,  CIMCO paid a management fee to MFS in the amount
of $XX,XXX for the fiscal year ending October 31, 1999.

0.75% of net assets  managed  by Lazard  and  invested  in  international  small
capitalization  securities.   Pursuant  to  the  above  formula,  CIMCO  paid  a
management  fee to Lazard in the amount of $XX,XXX  for the fiscal  year  ending
October 31, 1999.


DISTRIBUTION (12b-1) PLANS AND AGREEMENT

The Trust has entered into a Distribution  Agreement with CUNA Brokerage.  Under
the Distribution Agreement,  CUNA Brokerage is obligated to use its best efforts
to sell  shares  of the  Trust.  Shares  of the  Trust  may be sold by  selected
broker-dealers  (the "Selling  Brokers")  which have entered into selling agency
agreements with CUNA Brokerage.  CUNA Brokerage  accepts orders for the purchase
of the  shares of the Trust at NAV next  determined  plus any  applicable  sales
charge.  In connection  with the sale of Class A or Class B shares of the Trust,
CUNA  Brokerage and Selling  Brokers  receive  compensation  from a sales charge
imposed,  in the case of Class A shares,  at the time of sale or, in the case of
Class B shares,  on a deferred basis. The sales charges are discussed further in
the prospectus.

The Trust's  Board of Trustees also adopted  Distribution  Plans with respect to
the  Trust's  Class A and Class B shares  (the  "Plans")  pursuant to Rule 12b-1
under the 1940 Act. Under the Plans, the Trust will pay service fees for Class A
and Class B shares at an aggregate annual rate of 0.25% of each fund's daily net
assets  attributable to the respective class of shares.  The Trust will also pay
distribution  fees for Class B shares at an  aggregate  annual  rate of 0.75% of
each fund's daily net assets attributable to Class B. The distribution fees will
be used to reimburse CUNA Brokerage for its  distribution  expenses with respect
to Class B shares  only,  including  but not limited to: (i) initial and ongoing
sales  compensation  to Selling  Brokers and others  engaged in the sale of fund
shares, (ii) marketing, promotional and overhead expenses incurred in connection
with  the  distribution  of  fund  shares,   and  (iii)  interest   expenses  on
unreimbursed  distribution expenses. The service fees will be used to compensate
Selling  Brokers  and others for  providing  personal  and  account  maintenance
services  to  shareholders.  In the  event  that  CUNA  Brokerage  is not  fully
reimbursed  for  expenses it incurs  under the Class B Plan in any fiscal  year,
CUNA Brokerage may carry these expenses  forward,  provided,  however,  that the
Trustees may terminate the Class B Plan and thus the Trust's  obligation to make
further payments at any time. Accordingly, the Trust does not treat unreimbursed
expenses relating to the Class B shares as a liability.

The Plans were approved by the initial  shareholder of the Trust. The Plans have
also been  approved by a majority of the  Trustees,  including a majority of the
Trustees who are not  interested  persons of the Trust and who have no direct or
indirect  financial  interest  in the  operation  of the Plan (the  "Independent
Trustees"), by votes cast in person at meetings called for the purpose of voting
on such Plans.

Pursuant to the Plans,  at least  quarterly,  CUNA Brokerage  provides the Trust
with a written  report of the amounts  expended  under the Plans and the purpose
for which these  expenditures  were made. The Trustees review these reports on a
quarterly basis to determine their continued appropriateness.

The Plans provide that they continue in effect only so long as their continuance
is  approved  at least  annually  by a  majority  of both the  Trustees  and the
Independent  Trustees.  Each Plan  provides  that it may be  terminated  without
penalty: (a) by vote of a majority of the Independent Trustees; (b) by a vote of
a majority of the votes  attributable  to the fund's  outstanding  shares of the
applicable  class in each case upon 60 days' written  notice to CUNA  Brokerage;
and (c)  automatically  in the event of  assignment.  Each of the Plans  further
provides  that it may not be amended to increase the maximum  amount of the fees
for the  services  described  therein  without the approval of a majority of the
votes attributable to the outstanding shares of the class of the Trust which has
voting rights with respect to the Plan. And finally,  each of the Plans provides
that no material  amendment to the Plan will, in any event, be effective  unless
it is  approved  by a majority  vote of both the  Trustees  and the  Independent
Trustees  of the Trust.  The  holders of Class A shares and Class B shares  have
exclusive  voting rights with respect to the Plan applicable to their respective
class of shares.  In adopting the Plans,  the Trustees  concluded that, in their
judgment,  there is a  reasonable  likelihood  that each Plan will  benefit  the
holders of the applicable class of shares of the fund.

Amounts  paid to CUNA  Brokerage by any class of shares of the Trust will not be
used to pay the expenses  incurred  with respect to any other class of shares of
the Trust; provided, however, that expenses attributable to the Trust as a whole
will be allocated,  to the extent permitted by law, according to a formula based
upon gross sales dollars and/or average daily net assets of each such class,  as
may be approved from time to time.


The table  below shows the dollar  amount  spent by the fund for the fiscal year
ending October 31, 1999 for each of the following items:

  1)  Advertising;                                                     $X
  2)  Printing and mailing of prospectuses to other than               $X

fund's account at the custodian.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS


The  financial  statements  have  been  included  herein  and  elsewhere  in the
Registration  Statement in reliance upon the reports of  PricewaterhouseCoopers,
100 East Wisconsin Avenue,  Milwaukee, WI 53202,  independent auditors, and upon
the authority of said firm as experts in accounting and auditing.


BROKERAGE

CIMCO chooses brokers based on among other factors commission rates, efficiency,
availability to execute difficult transactions in the future, financial strength
and stability of the brokerage firm, research services available, integrity, and
areas of a firm's expertise.

While transaction execution at the most favorable price is a primary criteria, a
broker whose  commissions  exceed those charged by another  broker may be chosen
if, in CIMCO's opinion,  the value of brokerage and research  services  warrants
it. Research  provided by a broker may be made available without charge to other
clients of CIMCO, and may benefit all clients, including the client for whom the
transactions are executed.

In addition to the general research  services  described  above,  CIMCO receives
various   specific   research   products  and  services   under  "soft   dollar"
arrangements.  These  services  are  paid for by  directing  that a  portion  of
commissions on specified  transactions up to a specified amount for each service
be paid by the brokers handling the transactions to the vendors of the products.
The commission rates on such transactions are sometimes higher than on "non-soft
dollar" transactions.  These services generally benefit all accounts and involve
trades for all accounts.

Where  advantageous  for all affected  accounts,  CIMCO may employ  "bunching of
trades" wherein one transaction  representing  several different client accounts
is placed with a broker.  CIMCO has established  various policies and procedures
that assure equitable treatment of all accounts.

It is the Trust's policy, in effecting transactions in portfolio securities,  to
seek best execution of orders at the most favorable prices. The determination of
what may  constitute  best  execution and price in the execution of a securities
transaction by a broker involves a number of  considerations,  including without
limitation, the overall direct net economic result (involving both price paid or
received and any  commissions  and other costs paid),  the efficiency with which
the transaction is effected,  the ability to effect the transaction at all where
a large  block is  involved,  the  availability  of the broker to stand ready to
execute  potentially  difficult  transactions  in the future  and the  financial
strength and stability of the broker. Such considerations are judgmental and are
weighed by the Investment  Adviser in determining the overall  reasonableness of
brokerage commissions paid.

Subject to the foregoing, a factor in the selection of brokers is the receipt of
research  services,   analyses  and  reports  concerning  issuers,   industries,
securities,  economic  factors  and trends  and other  statistical  and  factual
information.  Any such research and other  statistical  and factual  information
provided by brokers to the Trust or CIMCO is considered to be in addition to and
not in lieu of services  required to be  performed  by CIMCO under its  contract
with the Trust. Research obtained on behalf of the Trust may be used by CIMCO in
connection  with CIMCO's  other  clients.  Conversely,  research  received  from
placement  of  brokerage  for other  accounts  may be used by CIMCO in  managing
investments of the Trust. Therefore,  the correlation of the cost of research to
CIMCO's  individual  clients,  including the Trust, is indeterminable and cannot
practically be allocated  among the Trust and CIMCO's other clients.  Consistent
with the above, the Trust may effect principal transactions with a broker-dealer
that  furnishes  brokerage  and/or  research  services,  or  designate  any such
broker-dealer to receive selling commissions,  discounts or other allowances, or
otherwise deal with any  broker-dealer,  in connection  with the  acquisition of
securities in  underwritings.  Accordingly,  the net prices or commission  rates
charged by any such  broker-dealer  may be greater than the amount  another firm
might charge if the Investment  Adviser determines in good faith that the amount
of such net prices and commissions is reasonable in relation to the value of the
services and research information provided by such broker-dealer to the Trust.

The Trust expects that purchases and sales of money market  instruments  usually
will be principal transactions.  Money market instruments are normally purchased
directly  from  the  issuer  or from an  underwriter  or  market  maker  for the
securities.  There  usually  will be no  brokerage  commissions  paid  for  such
purchases.  Purchases from underwriters will include the underwriting commission
or concession and purchases  from dealers  serving as market makers will include
the spread between the bid and asked price.  Where  transactions are made in the
over-the-counter  market,  the Trust will deal with the  primary  market  makers
unless equal or more favorable prices are otherwise obtainable.

Where  advantageous,  the Trust may  participate  with CIMCO's  other clients in
"bunching  of trades"  wherein  one  purchase or sale  transaction  representing
several different client accounts is placed with a broker. CIMCO has established
various policies and procedures that assure equitable treatment of all accounts.

The policy with  respect to  brokerage  is and will be reviewed by the  Trustees
from time to time. Because of the possibility of further regulatory developments
affecting  the  securities  exchanges  and brokerage  practices  generally,  the
foregoing practices may be changed, modified or eliminated.


The fund paid  $XX,XXX  for  brokerage  commission  for the fiscal  year  ending
October 31, 1999.


HOW SECURITIES ARE OFFERED

Shares of Beneficial Interest

The  Declaration  of Trust permits the Trustees to issue an unlimited  number of
full and  fractional  shares of  beneficial  interest  of the Trust  without par
value. Under the Declaration of Trust, the Trustees have the authority to create
and classify shares of beneficial  interest in separate series,  without further
action by shareholders. As of the date of this SAI, the Trustees have authorized
shares of the seven funds described in the prospectus.  Additional series and/or
classes may be added in the future. The Declaration of Trust also authorizes the
Trustees to classify and  reclassify  the shares of the Trust,  or new series of
the Trust,  into one or more  classes.  As of the date of this SAI, the Trustees
have authorized the issuance of two classes of shares of the fund, designated as
Class A and Class B. Additional classes of shares may be offered in the future.

The shares of each class of each fund represent an equal proportionate  interest
in the aggregate net assets  attributable to that class of that fund. Holders of
Class A shares  and  Class B shares  have  certain  exclusive  voting  rights on
matters relating to their respective  distribution  plans. The different classes
of a  fund  may  bear  different  expenses  relating  to  the  cost  of  holding
shareholder meetings necessitated by the exclusive voting rights of any class of
shares.

Dividends  paid by each fund,  if any, with respect to each class of shares will
be calculated in the same manner,  at the same time and on the same day and will
be in the same amount,  except for differences resulting from the fact that: (i)
the distribution and service fees relating to Class A and Class B shares will be
borne   exclusively  by  that  class;  (ii)  Class  B  shares  will  pay  higher
distribution  and  service  fees than Class A shares;  and (iii) each of Class A
shares and Class B shares will bear any other class expenses properly  allocable
to such class of shares,  subject to the  requirements  imposed by the  Internal
Revenue Service on funds having a multiple-class  structure.  Similarly, the NAV
per share may vary  depending  on  whether  Class A shares or Class B shares are
purchased.

In the  event  of  liquidation,  shareholders  of each  class  of each  fund are
entitled to share pro rata in the net assets of the class of the fund  available
for distribution to these shareholders. Shares entitle their holders to one vote
per dollar  value of shares,  are freely  transferable  and have no  preemptive,
subscription  or  conversion  rights.  When  issued,  shares  are fully paid and
non-assessable, except as set forth below.

Share certificates will not be issued.

Voting Rights

Unless otherwise required by the 1940 Act or the Declaration of Trust, the Trust
has no intention of holding annual meetings of shareholders.  Fund  shareholders
may  remove a Trustee  by the  affirmative  vote of at least  two-thirds  of the
Trust's votes  attributable  to the  outstanding  shares and the Trustees  shall
promptly  call a meeting for such purpose when  requested to do so in writing by
the  record  holders  of not less  than  10% of the  votes  attributable  to the
outstanding shares of the Trust.  Shareholders may, under certain circumstances,
communicate  with other  shareholders  in connection  with  requesting a special
meeting of shareholders.  However,  at any time that less than a majority of the
Trustees holding office were elected by the shareholders, the Trustees will call
a special meeting of shareholders for the purpose of electing Trustees.

Limitation of Shareholder Liability

Generally,  Delaware  business trust  shareholders are not personally liable for
obligations  of the Delaware  business  trust under  Delaware  law. The Delaware
Business Trust Act ("DBTA")  provides that a shareholder of a Delaware  business
trust  shall be  entitled  to the  same  limitation  of  liability  extended  to
shareholders  of private  for-profit  corporations.  The  Declaration  expressly
provides  that  the  Trust  has  been  organized  under  the  DBTA  and that the
Declaration  is to be governed by and  interpreted  in accordance  with Delaware
law. It is nevertheless  possible that a Delaware  business  trust,  such as the
Trust, might become a party to an action in another state whose courts refuse to
apply  Delaware law, in which case the Trust's  shareholders  could  possibly be
subject to personal liability.

To guard against this risk, the Declaration:  (i) contains an express disclaimer
of shareholder  liability for acts or obligations of the Trust and provides that
notice  of such  disclaimer  may be  given  in each  agreement,  obligation  and
instrument entered into or executed by the Trust or its Trustees,  (ii) provides
for  the  indemnification  out  of  Trust  property  of  any  shareholders  held
personally  liable  for any  obligations  of the  Trust or any  fund,  and (iii)
provides  that the Trust shall,  upon  request,  assume the defense of any claim
made against any  shareholder for any act or obligation of the Trust and satisfy
any judgment thereon.  Thus, the risk of a shareholder  incurring financial loss
beyond his or her  investment  because of  shareholder  liability  is limited to
circumstances  in which all of the  following  factors are present:  (1) a court
refuses to apply  Delaware  law; (2) the  liability  arose under tort law or, if
not, no  contractual  limitation of liability  was in effect;  and (3) the Trust
itself would be unable to meet its obligations. In the light of DBTA, the nature
of the  Trust's  business,  and the nature of its  assets,  the risk of personal
liability to a shareholder is remote.

Limitation of Trustee and Officer Liability

The  Declaration  further  provides that the Trust shall  indemnify  each of its
Trustees and officers against  liabilities and expenses  reasonably  incurred by
them, in connection  with,  or arising out of, any action,  suit or  proceeding,
threatened against or otherwise  involving such Trustee or officer,  directly or
indirectly, by reason of being or having been a Trustee or officer of the Trust.
The Declaration does not authorize the Trust to indemnify any Trustee or officer
against any liability to which he or she would otherwise be subject by reason of
or for willful misfeasance, bad faith, gross negligence or reckless disregard of
such person's duties.

Limitation of Interseries Liability

All  persons  dealing  with a fund must  look  solely  to the  property  of that
particular  fund for the enforcement of any claims against that fund, as neither
the Trustees, officers, agents or shareholders assume any personal liability for
obligations entered into on behalf of a fund or the Trust. No fund is liable for
the  obligations of any other fund.  Since the funds use a combined  prospectus,
however,  it is possible that one fund might become liable for a misstatement or
omission in the prospectus  regarding  another fund with which its disclosure is
combined.  The Trustees have  considered this factor in approving the use of the
combined prospectus.

MORE ABOUT PURCHASING AND SELLING SHARES

The following discussion expands upon the section entitled "Your Account" in the
prospectus.

Offering Price

Shares of each fund are  offered at a price  equal to their NAV next  determined
after  receipt of the  purchase  order for such  shares (see "Net Asset Value of
Shares"  below) plus a sales charge  which,  depending  upon the class of shares
purchased,  may be imposed either at the time of purchase (Class A shares) or on
a contingent deferred basis (Class B shares).  The Trustees reserve the right to
change or waive the fund's  minimum  investment  requirements  and to reject any
order to purchase shares  (including  purchase by exchange) when in the judgment
of the Investment Adviser such rejection is in the fund's best interest.

Initial Sales Charge on Class A Shares

The sales  charges  applicable  to  purchases of Class A shares of the Trust are
described in the  prospectus.  In  calculating  the sales charge  applicable  to
current  purchases  of Class A shares of the Trust,  the investor is entitled to
accumulate  current purchases with the greater of the current value (at offering
price) of the Class A shares of the Trust,  or if CUNA  Brokerage is notified by
the investor's  dealer or the investor at the time of the purchase,  the cost of
the Class A shares owned.

In addition to the methods of obtaining a reduced Class A sales charge described
in the  prospectus,  Class A shares of a fund may also be  purchased  without an
initial  sales  charge  in  connection  with  certain  liquidation,   merger  or
acquisition  transactions  involving  other  investment  companies  or  personal
holding companies.


Class A shares  may be  offered  without  front-end  sales  charges  to  various
individuals and institutions, including:

o    Employees  of credit  unions  designated  by CIMCO  Inc.,  when  purchasing
     MEMBERS Funds  directly.

o    Employees,  clients or direct  referrals of the investment  adviser,  CIMCO
     Inc.

o    Class A Shares may be  purchased  at a sales  charge  that is less than the
     charge shown in the Class A Sales  Charges  table in the  prospectus if the
     transaction is placed with the assistance of a MEMBERS  Financial  Services
     Center representative under the MEMBERS IRA Program.

In addition,  Class A Shares issued or purchased in the  following  transactions
are not subject to Class A sales charges:

o    Shares purchased and paid for from the proceeds of sales within the last 60
     days of shares of loaded mutual funds having investment  objectives similar
     to those of the fund(s) sold, if the purchase is  accompanied  by a written
     statement from your registered  representative that the purchase is for the
     sole purpose of  simplifying  or  consolidating  your existing  mutual fund
     investment portfolio.

o    Shares  purchased  through  consultation  with a CUNA Mutual Group  Pension
     Department   employee  and  paid  for  from  the   liquidation  of  a  CUNA
     Mutual-affiliated pension product.

o    Shares  purchased  for an  individual  retirement  account  of an  existing
     Shareholder  from the proceeds of shares of a MEMBERS  Mutual Fund, or vice
     versa.


Rights of Combination.  In calculating the sales charge  applicable to purchases
of Class A shares  made at one time,  the  purchases  will be combined to reduce
sales  charges  if made by:  (a) an  individual,  his or her  spouse  and  their
children  under  the  age of 21,  purchasing  securities  for his or  their  own
account;  (b) a trustee or other fiduciary purchasing for a single trust, estate
or  fiduciary  account;  and (c) groups which  qualify for the Group  Investment
Program (see below).  Further  information about combined  purchases,  including
certain  restrictions  on  combined  group  purchases,  is  available  from CUNA
Brokerage.

Rights of Accumulation.  Investors (including investors combining purchases) who
are  already  Class A  shareholders  may also  obtain the benefit of the reduced
sales charge by taking into account not only the amount then being  invested but
also the  purchase  price or  current  value of the  Class A shares of all funds
which carry a sales charge already held by such person.

Letter  of  Intention.   The  reduced  sales  charges  are  also  applicable  to
investments made pursuant to a Letter of Intention (the "LOI"),  which should be
read  carefully  prior  to its  execution  by an  investor,  pursuant  to  which
investors make their investment over a specified period of thirteen (13) months.
Such an investment  (including  accumulations and  combinations)  must aggregate
$50,000 or more invested  during the 13-month period from the date of the LOI or
from a date within ninety (90) days prior thereto,  upon written request to CUNA
Brokerage.  The sales charge applicable to all amounts invested under the LOI is
computed as if the  aggregate  amount  intended to be invested had been invested
immediately.  If such aggregate amount is not actually invested,  the difference
in the sales charge  actually paid and the sales charge  payable had the LOI not
been in effect is due from the investor.  However,  for the  purchases  actually
made within the 13-month period,  the sales charge applicable will not be higher
than that which would have applied  (including  accumulations  and combinations)
had the LOI been for the amount actually invested.

The LOI authorizes  CUNA Brokerage to hold in escrow  sufficient  Class A shares
(approximately  5% of the  aggregate) to make up any difference in sales charges
on the amount  intended to be invested and the amount actually  invested,  until
such  investment  is completed  within the specified  period,  at which time the
escrow shares will be released.  If the total investment specified in the LOI is
not  completed,  the  Class A shares  held in  escrow  may be  redeemed  and the
proceeds used as required to pay such sales charge as may be due. By signing the
LOI,  the  investor   authorizes   CUNA  Brokerage  to  act  as  the  investor's
attorney-in-fact  to redeem any escrowed shares and adjust the sales charge,  if
necessary.  A LOI does not  constitute  a binding  commitment  by an investor to
purchase,  or by the Trust to sell, any additional  shares and may be terminated
at any time.

Deferred Sales Charge on Class B Shares

Investments  in  Class B shares  are  purchased  at NAV per  share  without  the
imposition  of an initial  sales charge so the fund will receive the full amount
of the purchase payment.

Contingent Deferred Sales Charge.  Class B shares which are redeemed within five
years of purchase will be subject to a contingent deferred sales charge ("CDSC")
at the rates set forth in the  prospectus  as a percentage  of the dollar amount
subject  to the CDSC.  The charge  will be  assessed  on an amount  equal to the
lesser of the current market value or the original  purchase cost of the Class B
shares being  redeemed.  No CDSC will be imposed on  increases in account  value
above  the  initial  purchase  prices,  including  Class B shares  derived  from
reinvestment of dividends or capital gains distributions.

The amount of the CDSC, if any, will vary  depending on the number of years from
the  time of  payment  for the  purchase  of Class B  shares  until  the time of
redemption  of such  shares.  Solely for purposes of  determining  the number of
years from the time of any payment for the  purchases  of shares,  all  payments
during a month will be aggregated  and deemed to have been made on the first day
of the month.

In determining  whether a CDSC applies to a redemption,  the calculation will be
determined in a manner that results in the lowest  possible rate being  charged.
It will be assumed  that a  redemption  comes  first from any  increases  in the
redeeming  shareholder's shares' value above their initial purchase prices, then
from  shares  the  shareholder   acquired  through  dividend  and  capital  gain
reinvestment,  then from shares the  shareholder  has held beyond the  five-year
CDSC  redemption  period ("aged  shares").  Such aged shares will be redeemed in
order from the  shares  which have been held the  longest  during the  five-year
period.

Unless  otherwise  requested,  redemption  requests  will be "grossed up" by the
amount of any applicable  CDSC charge and/or  transaction  charges such that the
investor will receive the net amount requested.

Proceeds  from the CDSC are paid to CUNA  Brokerage  and are used in whole or in
part  by  CUNA   Brokerage   to  defray  its   expenses   related  to  providing
distribution-related  services to the Trust in  connection  with the sale of the
Class B shares,  such as the payment of  compensation  to select Selling Brokers
for selling Class B shares. The combination of the CDSC and the distribution and
service  fees  facilitates  the  ability of the Trust to sell the Class B shares
without a sales charge being deducted at the time of the purchase.

Waiver  of  Contingent  Deferred  Sales  Charge.  The  CDSC  will be  waived  on
redemptions  of  Class  B  shares,   unless   indicated   otherwise,   in  these
circumstances:

For all account types:

     *    Redemptions  made  pursuant to the Trust's  right to  liquidate  small
          accounts (see "General Policy -- Small Accounts" in the prospectus).

     *    Redemptions  made under  certain  liquidation,  merger or  acquisition
          transactions  involving other investment companies or personal holding
          companies.

     *    Redemptions due to death or disability.

     *    Redemptions made under the  Reinstatement  Privilege,  as described in
          "Reinstatement or Reinvestment Privilege" below.

     *    Redemptions  of Class B shares  made under the  Systematic  Withdrawal
          Program, as long as annual redemptions do not exceed (on an annualized
          basis) 12% of the redeeming shareholder's account value at the time of
          the withdrawal.

For Retirement  Accounts (such as IRA,  Rollover IRA, TSA, 457,  403(b),  401(k)
plans) and other  qualified  plans as  described in the Code,  unless  otherwise
noted.

     *    Redemptions made to effect mandatory or life expectancy  distributions
          under the Code.

     *    Returns of excess contributions made to these plans.

     *    Redemptions   made  to  effect   distributions   to   participants  or
          beneficiaries from employer sponsored  retirement under section 401(a)
          of the Code (such as 401(k) plans).

Any  shareholder  who qualifies for a CDSC waiver under one of these  situations
must notify the funds'  transfer  agent,  PFPC Global  Fund  Services  ("PFPC"),
formerly First Data Investor Services Group,  Inc., at the time such shareholder
requests  a  redemption.  (See  "Contacting  the Funds'  Transfer  Agent" in the
prospectus.)  The  waiver  will be  granted  once  PFPC has  confirmed  that the
shareholder is entitled to the waiver.


Special Redemptions

Although  no fund  would  normally  do so,  each  fund has the  right to pay the
redemption  price  of  shares  of the  fund in  whole  or in  part in  portfolio
securities held by the fund as prescribed by the Trustees.  When the shareholder
were to sell portfolio securities received in this fashion the shareholder would
incur a brokerage  charge.  Any such securities would be valued for the purposes
of making such payment at the same value as used in  determining  NAV. The Trust
has,  however,  elected to be governed  by Rule 18f-1 under the 1940 Act.  Under
that rule,  each fund must  redeem its shares for cash except to the extent that
the redemption payments to any shareholder during any 90-day period would exceed
the lesser of $250,000 or 1% of the fund's NAV at the beginning of such period.

NET ASSET VALUE OF SHARES


The NAV per  share is  calculated  as of 3:00 p.m.  central  time on each day on
which  the New York  Stock  Exchange  is open  for  business.  NAV per  share is
determined  by dividing  each fund's total net assets by the number of shares of
such  fund  outstanding  at the  time  of  calculation.  Total  net  assets  are
determined  by adding the total  current  value of portfolio  securities,  cash,
receivables,  and other assets and subtracting liabilities.  Shares will be sold
and redeemed at the NAV per share next determined  after receipt of the purchase
order or request for redemption.


The NAV per share was initially set at $10.00 per share for each fund other than
the Cash Reserves Fund.

The NAV per share  was  initially  set at $1.00 per share for the Cash  Reserves
Fund (see below).

Cash Reserves Fund

The  Trustees  have  determined  that the best method  currently  available  for
determining the NAV for the Cash Reserves Fund is the amortized cost method. The
Trustees will utilize this method pursuant to Rule 2a-7 of the 1940 Act. The use
of this  valuation  method will be  continuously  reviewed and the Trustees will
make such changes as may be necessary to assure that assets are valued fairly as
determined by the Trustees in good faith.  Rule 2a-7 obligates the Trustees,  as
part of  their  responsibility  within  the  overall  duty  of care  owed to the
shareholders,  to establish procedures reasonably designed,  taking into account
current market  conditions and the investment  objectives,  to stabilize the NAV
per share as computed for the purpose of  distribution  and  redemption at $1.00
per share. The Trustees'  procedures include  periodically  monitoring,  as they
deem  appropriate  and at such  intervals as are  reasonable in light of current
market conditions,  the relationship  between the amortized cost value per share
and the NAV per share based upon available market quotations.  The Trustees will
consider  what steps should be taken,  if any, in the event of a  difference  of
more than 1/2 of one percent (0.5%) between the two. The Trustees will take such
steps as they consider appropriate,  (e.g., redemption in kind or shortening the
average  portfolio  maturity) to minimize any material  dilution or other unfair
results  which might arise from  differences  between the two. The Rule requires
that the Cash  Reserves  Fund limit its  investments  to  instruments  which the
Trustees  determine  will  present  minimal  credit  risks and which are of high
quality  as  determined  by a  major  rating  agency,  or,  in the  case  of any
instrument  that is not so rated,  of  comparable  quality as  determined by the
Trustees. It also calls for the Cash Reserves Fund to maintain a dollar weighted
average portfolio  maturity (not more than 90 days) appropriate to its objective
of maintaining a stable NAV of $1.00 per share and precludes the purchase of any
instrument  with a  remaining  maturity  of  more  than  397  days.  Should  the
disposition  of a  portfolio  security  result  in  a  dollar  weighted  average
portfolio  maturity of more than 90 days, the Cash Reserves Fund will invest its
available  cash in such manner as to reduce such  maturity to 90 days or less as
soon as reasonably practicable.

It is the normal practice of the Cash Reserves Fund to hold portfolio securities
to  maturity.  Therefore,  unless a sale or other  disposition  of a security is
mandated by redemption  requirements or other extraordinary  circumstances,  the
Cash  Reserves  Fund  will  realize  the par  value of the  security.  Under the
amortized cost method of valuation  traditionally  employed by institutions  for
valuation  of money market  instruments,  neither the amount of daily income nor
the NAV is affected by any unrealized  appreciation or depreciation.  In periods
of  declining  interest  rates,  the  indicated  daily  yield on shares the Cash
Reserves  Fund has computed by dividing the  annualized  daily income by the NAV
will tend to be higher than if the  valuation  were based upon market prices and
estimates.  In periods of rising  interest  rates,  the indicated daily yield on
shares the Cash  Reserves  Fund has  computed by dividing the  annualized  daily
income by the NAV will tend to be lower  than if the  valuation  were based upon
market prices and estimates.

Valuation Procedures

Common stocks that are traded on an established exchange or over-the-counter are
valued  on the  basis of  market  price as of the end of the  valuation  period,
provided  that a market  quotation  is readily  available.  Otherwise,  they are
valued at fair value as  determined  in good faith by or at the direction of the
Trustees.

Stripped  treasury   securities,   long-term  straight  debt  obligations,   and
non-convertible  preferred  stocks are valued  using  readily  available  market
quotations,  if available.  When exchange quotations are used, the latest quoted
sale price is used. If an over-the-counter quotation is used, the last bid price
will normally be used. If readily available market quotations are not available,
these securities are valued at market value as determined in good faith by or at
the direction of the Trustees.  Readily  available market quotations will not be
deemed available if an exchange quotation exists for a debt security,  preferred
stock, or security  convertible  into common stock,  but it does not reflect the
true value of the fund's holdings because sales have occurred infrequently,  the
market for the security is thin, or the size of the reported trade is considered
not comparable to the fund's institutional size holdings. When readily available
market  quotations are not available,  the fund will use an independent  pricing
service which provides valuations for normal institutional size trading units of
such  securities.  Such a service may utilize a matrix  system  which takes into
account appropriate factors such as institutional size trading in similar groups
of securities,  yield,  quality,  coupon rate, maturity,  type of issue, trading
characteristics  and  other  market  data  in  determining   valuations.   These
valuations are reviewed by CIMCO.  If CIMCO believes that a valuation still does
not  represent a fair value,  it will present for approval of the Trustees  such
other  valuation  as CIMCO  considers  to  represent a fair value.  The specific
pricing  service or services to be used will be  presented  for  approval of the
Trustees.

Short-term  instruments  having  maturities  of sixty  (60) days or less will be
valued at amortized cost. Short-term  instruments having maturities of more than
sixty  (60) days will be valued  at  market  values or values  based on  current
interest rates.

Options,  stock index futures,  interest rate futures, and related options which
are traded on U.S.  exchanges or boards of trade are valued at the closing price
as of the close of the New York Stock Exchange.

CIMCO, at the direction of the Trustees, values the following at prices it deems
in good faith to be fair:

     1.   Securities  (including  restricted   securities)  for  which  complete
          quotations are not readily available;

     2.   Listed securities if, in CIMCO's opinion, the last sale price does not
          reflect the current market value or if no sale occurred; and

     3.   Other assets.

ADDITIONAL INVESTOR SERVICES AND PROGRAMS

The following  discussion expands upon the section entitled "Additional Investor
Services" in the prospectus.

Systematic Investment Program

As  explained  in  the  prospectus,  the  Trust  has  established  a  Systematic
Investment Program. The program is subject to the following conditions:

     *    The  investments  will be  drawn  on or  about  the  day of the  month
          indicated.

     *    Any  shareholder's   privilege  of  making  investments   through  the
          Systematic  Investment  Program  may be revoked  by the Trust  without
          prior notice if any  investment by the  shareholder  is not honored by
          the shareholder's credit union or other financial institution.

     *    The program may be discontinued  by the shareholder  either by calling
          MEMBERS  Mutual Funds or upon written  notice to MEMBERS  Mutual Funds
          which is  received  at least five (5)  business  days prior to the due
          date of any investment.

Systematic Withdrawal Program

As  explained  in  the  prospectus,  the  Trust  has  established  a  Systematic
Withdrawal Program.  Payments under this program represent proceeds arising from
the  redemption  of fund shares.  The  maintenance  of a  Systematic  Withdrawal
Program  concurrently  with purchases of additional  shares of the fund could be
disadvantageous  to a  shareholder  because  of the  sales  charges  that may be
imposed on new purchases. Therefore, a shareholder should not purchase shares of
a fund at the same time as a Systematic Withdrawal Program is in effect for such
shareholder with respect to that fund. The Trust reserves the right to modify or
discontinue  the Systematic  Withdrawal  Program for any shareholder on 30 days'
prior written notice to such shareholder,  or to discontinue the availability of
such plan to all  shareholders in the future.  Any shareholder may terminate the
program at any time by giving proper notice.

Exchange Privilege and Systematic Exchange Program

Shares of a fund which are subject to a CDSC may be exchanged into shares of any
of other fund that are subject to a CDSC without  incurring  the CDSC;  however,
the shares  acquired in the exchange will be subject to the CDSC schedule of the
shares acquired if and when such shares are redeemed.  For purposes of computing
the CDSC payable upon redemption of shares acquired in an exchange,  the holding
period of the  original  shares  is added to the  holding  period of the  shares
acquired in an exchange.

The Trust reserves the right to require that  previously  exchanged  shares (and
reinvested dividends) be in a fund for 90 days before a shareholder is permitted
a new exchange. The Trust may refuse any exchange order. The Trust may change or
cancel  its  exchange  policies  at  any  time,  upon  60  days'  notice  to its
shareholders.

An exchange of shares is treated as a  redemption  of shares of one fund and the
purchase of shares of another for federal  income tax purposes.  An exchange may
result in a taxable gain or loss. (See "Dividends, Distributions and Taxes.")


As explained in the prospectus,  the Trust has established a Systematic Exchange
Program.  The Trust reserves the right to modify or  discontinue  the Systematic
Exchange  Program for any  shareholder  on 30 days' prior written notice to such
shareholder, or to discontinue the availability of such plan to all shareholders
in the future.  Any  shareholder may terminate the program at any time by giving
proper notice to PFPC.


Reinstatement or Reinvestment Privilege


If PFPC is notified prior to  reinvestment,  a shareholder who has redeemed fund
shares  may,  within 90 days  after  the date of  redemption,  reinvest  without
payment of a sales charge any part of the  redemption  proceeds in shares of the
same class of the same or another fund,  subject to the minimum investment limit
of that  fund.  The  proceeds  from the  redemption  of  Class A  shares  may be
reinvested at NAV without paying a sales charge in Class A shares of the same or
any other fund. If a CDSC was paid upon a redemption, a shareholder may reinvest
the proceeds from the  redemption  at NAV in additional  shares of the class and
fund from which the  redemption  was made. The new shares will not be subject to
any CDSC.


To protect the interests of other  investors in the funds,  the Trust may cancel
the reinvestment privilege of any parties that, in the opinion of the Trust, are
using market timing  strategies or making more than four  exchanges per owner or
controlling party per calendar year above and beyond any systematic or automated
exchanges. Also, the Trust may refuse any reinvestment request.

The fund may change or cancel its reinvestment policies at any time.

A  redemption  or exchange of fund shares is a taxable  transaction  for federal
income tax purposes even if the  reinvestment  privilege is  exercised,  and any
gain or loss realized by a shareholder on the redemption or other disposition of
fund  shares will be treated for tax  purposes  as  described  under the caption
"Dividends, Distributions and Taxes."

DIVIDENDS, DISTRIBUTIONS AND TAXES

Each fund has qualified,  and intends to continue to qualify, for treatment as a
regulated investment company ("RIC") under Subchapter M of the Code. In order to
qualify for that treatment,  each fund must distribute to its  shareholders  for
each  taxable  year  at  least  90% of its  investment  company  taxable  income
(consisting  generally  of taxable  net  investment  income  and net  short-term
capital  gain) and must meet several  additional  requirements.  With respect to
each fund, these requirements include the following: (1) the fund must derive at
least 90% of its gross  income  each  taxable  year  from  dividends,  interest,
payments  with  respect  to  securities  loans and gains  from the sale or other
disposition  of  securities,  or other  income  (including  gains  from  futures
contracts) derived with respect to its business of investing in securities;  (2)
at the close of each  quarter of the fund's  taxable  year,  at least 50% of the
value of its total  assets  must be  represented  by cash and cash  items,  U.S.
Government securities, securities of other RICs and other securities, with these
other securities  limited,  in respect of any one issuer, to an amount that does
not  exceed  5% of the  value of the  fund's  total  assets  and  that  does not
represent more than 10% of the outstanding  voting securities of the issuer; and
(3) at the close of each quarter of the fund's  taxable year,  not more than 25%
of the value of its total assets may be invested in securities  (other than U.S.
government securities or the securities of other RICs) of any one issuer.

A fund will be subject to a  nondeductible  4% excise tax to the extent it fails
to distribute by the end of any calendar year  substantially all of its ordinary
income for that year and capital gain net income for the one-year  period ending
on October 31 of that year,  plus certain  other  amounts.  Each fund intends to
distribute  annually a sufficient amount of any taxable income and capital gains
so as to avoid liability for this excise tax.


For federal income tax purposes,  the High Income Fund,  Growth and Income Fund,
and Capital Appreciation Fund have loss carryovers of $XX,XXX, $X,XXX, and $XXX,
respectively,  as of October 31, 1999, which is not offset by subsequent capital
gains, will expire in 2006.


Dividends and interest received by a fund may be subject to income,  withholding
or other taxes  imposed by foreign  countries  and U.S.  possessions  that would
reduce the yield on its securities.  Tax conventions  between certain  countries
and the U.S. may reduce or eliminate these foreign taxes,  however,  and foreign
countries  generally  do not  impose  taxes  on  capital  gains  in  respect  of
investments  by  foreign  investors.  If  more  than  50%  of the  value  of the
International  Stock  Fund's  total  assets  at the  close of its  taxable  year
consists of securities of foreign corporations, it will be eligible to, and may,
file an  election  with the  Internal  Revenue  Service  that  will  enable  its
shareholders,  in effect,  to receive the benefit of the foreign tax credit with
respect to any foreign and U.S. possessions income taxes paid by it. Pursuant to
the  election,  a  fund  will  treat  those  taxes  as  dividends  paid  to  its
shareholders  and each  shareholder  will be  required  to (1)  include in gross
income,  and treat as paid by him, his  proportionate  share of those taxes, (2)
treat  his  share of  those  taxes  and of any  dividend  paid by the fund  that
represents  income from  foreign or U.S.  possessions  sources as his own income
from those  sources,  and (3)  either  deduct  the taxes  deemed  paid by him in
computing his taxable income or, alternatively, use the foregoing information in
calculating  the  foreign  tax  credit  against  his  federal  income  tax.  The
International  Stock Fund will  report to its  shareholders  shortly  after each
taxable  year their  respective  shares of the income from sources  within,  and
taxes paid to, foreign countries and U.S. possessions if it makes this election.

Each fund may  invest in the stock of  "passive  foreign  investment  companies"
("PFICs"). A PFIC is a foreign corporation that, in general, meets either of the
following  tests:  (1) at least 75% of its gross  income  is  passive  or (2) an
average of at least 50% of its assets  produce,  or are held for the  production
of,  passive  income.  Under  certain  circumstances,  a fund will be subject to
federal  income tax on a portion of any  "excess  distribution"  received on the
stock of a PFIC or of any gain on disposition of that stock  (collectively "PFIC
income"), plus interest thereon, even if the fund distributes the PFIC income as
a taxable dividend to its  shareholders.  The balance of the PFIC income will be
included in the fund's investment company taxable income and, accordingly,  will
not  be  taxable  to  it to  the  extent  that  income  is  distributed  to  its
shareholders.  If a fund  invests  in a PFIC and  elects  to treat the PFIC as a
"qualified  electing  fund,"  then  in lieu of the  foregoing  tax and  interest
obligation,  the fund will be  required  to include in income  each year its pro
rata share of the qualified  electing  fund's annual  ordinary  earnings and net
capital  gain (the  excess of net  long-term  capital  gain over net  short-term
capital loss), even if they are not distributed to the fund; those amounts would
be subject to the distribution  requirements  described above. In most instances
it will be very difficult,  if not impossible,  to make this election because of
certain requirements thereof.

The use of hedging strategies,  such as writing (selling) and purchasing options
and futures  contracts and entering  into forward  contracts,  involves  complex
rules that will  determine  for income tax purposes the  character and timing of
recognition  of the income  received in connection  therewith by a fund.  Income
from foreign  currencies (except certain gains therefrom that may be excluded by
future  regulations),  and income  from  transactions  in  options,  futures and
forward contracts derived by a fund with respect to its business of investing in
securities or foreign  currencies,  will qualify as permissible income under the
income requirement.  However,  income from the disposition of foreign currencies
that are not directly related to the fund's  principal  business of investing in
securities (or options and futures with respect thereto) also will be subject to
the  Short-Short  Limitation  if the  securities  are held for less  than  three
months.

If a fund satisfies  certain  requirements,  any increase in value on a position
that is part of a  "designated  hedge"  will be offset by any  decrease in value
(whether  realized or not) of the offsetting  hedging position during the period
of the  hedge  for  purposes  of  determining  whether  the fund  satisfies  the
Short-Short  Limitation.  Thus,  only the net gain (if any) from the  designated
hedge will be included in gross  income for  purposes of that  limitation.  Each
fund intends that,  when it engages in hedging  transactions,  they will qualify
for  this  treatment,  but at the  present  time it is not  clear  whether  this
treatment will be available for all of the fund's hedging  transactions.  To the
extent  this  treatment  is not  available,  a fund may be  forced  to defer the
closing out of certain  options and  futures  contracts  beyond the time when it
otherwise  would be  advantageous to do so, in order for the fund to continue to
qualify as a RIC.

The treatment of income  dividends and capital gain  distributions  by a fund to
shareholders under the various state income tax laws may not parallel that under
the federal  law.  Qualification  as a  regulated  investment  company  does not
involve supervision of a fund's Investment Adviser or of its investment policies
and practices by any governmental authority.

Shareholders are urged to consult their own tax advisers with specific reference
to their own tax situations, including their state and local tax liabilities.

It is the  intention  of the Trust to  distribute  substantially  all of the net
investment  income,  if any, of each fund thereby avoiding the imposition of any
fund-level income or excise tax as follows:

     (i)  Dividends on the Cash  Reserves,  Bond,  and High Income Funds will be
          declared  daily  and  reinvested   monthly  in  additional   full  and
          fractional shares of the respective fund;

     (ii) Dividends of ordinary  income from the Balanced  Fund will be declared
          and reinvested monthly in additional full and fractional shares of the
          Balanced Fund;

     (iii)Dividends of ordinary income,  if any, from the Growth and Income Fund
          will be declared  and  reinvested  quarterly  in  additional  full and
          fractional shares of the Growth and Income Fund;


     (iv) Dividends of ordinary income,  if any, from the Capital  Appreciation,
          Emerging  Growth and  International  Stock Funds will be declared  and
          reinvested  annually in additional  full and fractional  shares of the
          respective fund; and


     (v)  All net realized  short-term and long-term capital gains of each fund,
          if any, will be declared and distributed at least annually, but in any
          event, no more frequently than allowed under Commission  rules, to the
          shareholders of each fund to which such gains are attributable.

Options and Futures Transactions

The tax  consequences of options  transactions  entered into by a fund will vary
depending  on the  nature of the  underlying  security,  whether  the  option is
written or  purchased  and  finally,  whether the  "straddle"  rules,  discussed
separately below,  apply to the transaction.  When a fund writes a call or a put
option on an equity or  convertible  debt  security,  the  treatment for federal
income  tax  purposes  of the  premium  that it  receives  will,  subject to the
straddle rules, depend on whether the option is exercised. If the option expires
unexercised, or if the fund enters into a closing purchase transaction, the fund
will  realize a gain (or loss if the cost of the  closing  purchase  transaction
exceeds the amount of the premium) without regard to any unrealized gain or loss
on the  underlying  security.  Any such gain or loss will be short-term  capital
gain or loss,  except that any loss on a  "qualified"  covered call stock option
that is not treated as part of a straddle  may be treated as  long-term  capital
loss. If a call option written by a fund is exercised, the fund will recognize a
capital gain or loss from the sale of the  underlying  security,  and will treat
the  premium as  additional  sales  proceeds.  Whether  the gain or loss will be
long-term  or  short-term  will depend on the holding  period of the  underlying
security.  If a put  option  written by a fund is  exercised,  the amount of the
premium will reduce the tax basis of the security that the fund then purchases.

If a put or call option that a fund has  purchased  on an equity or  convertible
debt security expires unexercised, the fund will realize a capital loss equal to
the cost of the option.  If the fund enters into a closing sale transaction with
respect to the option,  it will  realize a capital  gain or loss  (depending  on
whether the proceeds from the closing  transaction  are greater or less than the
cost of the option).  The gain or loss will be short-term or long-term depending
on the fund's  holding  period in the option.  If the fund  exercises such a put
option,  it will realize a short-term  gain or loss (long-term if the fund holds
the underlying security for more than one year before it purchases the put) from
the sale of the underlying  security measured by the sales proceeds decreased by
the premium paid. If the fund exercises such a call option, the premium paid for
the option will be added to the tax basis of the security purchased.

One or more funds may invest in Section 1256  contracts.  Section 1256 contracts
generally   include  options  on  nonconvertible   debt  securities   (including
securities of U.S. Government agencies or  instrumentalities),  options on stock
indexes,  futures  contracts,  options on futures  contracts and certain foreign
currency  contracts.  Options on foreign currency,  futures contracts on foreign
currency,  and options on foreign  currency futures will qualify as Section 1256
contracts  if the  options or futures are traded on or subject to the rules of a
qualified board or exchange.  In general, gain or loss on Section 1256 contracts
will be  treated  as 60%  long-term  and  40%  short-term  capital  gain or loss
("60/40"),  regardless of the period of time  particular  positions are actually
held by a fund. In addition,  any Section 1256 contracts held at the end of each
taxable  year (and on October 31 of each year for  purposes of  determining  the
amount of capital gain net income that a fund must distribute to avoid liability
for the 4% excise  tax) are "marked to market"  with the result that  unrealized
gains or losses are treated as though they were realized and the resulting  gain
or loss is treated as 60/40 gain or loss. This deemed realization does not cause
a disposition for purposes of the "short-short" rule.

Straddles

Hedging transactions  undertaken by a fund may result in "straddles" for federal
income tax purposes.  Straddles are defined to include "offsetting positions" in
actively-traded personal property. Under current law, it is not clear under what
circumstances  one  investment  made by a fund,  such as an  option  or  futures
contract,  would be treated as "offsetting"  another investment also held by the
fund, such as the underlying  security (or vice versa) and,  therefore,  whether
the fund  would be  treated  as having  entered  into a  straddle.  In  general,
investment positions may be "offsetting" if there is a substantial diminution in
the risk of loss from  holding  one  position  by reason of holding  one or more
other positions (although certain "qualified" covered call stock options written
by a fund may be treated as not creating a straddle).

To the extent that the straddle rules apply to positions  established by a fund,
losses  realized  by the fund  may be  either  deferred  or  recharacterized  as
long-term  losses,  and long-term gains realized by the fund may be converted to
short-term gains.

Each fund may make one or more of the elections  available  under the Code which
are applicable to straddles.  If a fund makes any of the elections,  the amount,
character,  and timing of the  recognition  of gains or losses from the affected
straddle  positions  will be determined  under rules that vary  according to the
election(s) made. The rules applicable under certain of the elections operate to
accelerate  the  recognition  of gains or  losses  from  the  affected  straddle
positions.

Because  application  of the straddle rules may affect the character of gains or
losses,  defer losses and/or  accelerate the recognition of gains or losses from
the  affected  straddle  positions,  the  amount  which must be  distributed  to
shareholders,  and which will be taxed to  shareholders  as  ordinary  income or
long-term capital gain, may be increased or decreased  substantially as compared
to a fund that did not engage in such hedging transactions.

Distributor

Shares of the Trust are offered  continuously.  The shares are currently  issued
and redeemed through the distributor, CUNA Brokerage, pursuant to a Distribution
Agreement between the Trust and CUNA Brokerage.  The principal place of business
of CUNA Brokerage is 5910 Mineral Point Road,  Madison,  Wisconsin  53705.  CUNA
Brokerage is owned by CUNA Mutual Investment  Corporation which in turn is owned
by CUNA Mutual Insurance Society. Shares of the Trust are purchased and redeemed
at NAV (see "Net  Asset  Value of Shares"  below).  The  Distribution  Agreement
provides that CUNA Brokerage will use its best efforts to render services to the
Trust, but in the absence of willful misfeasance, bad faith, gross negligence or
reckless disregard of its obligations, it will not be liable to the Trust or any
shareholder  for any error of  judgment or mistake of law or any act or omission
or for any losses sustained by the Trust or its shareholders.


The aggregate  dollar amount of underwriting  commission paid to and retained by
the underwriter was $XX,XXX for the fiscal year ending October 31, 1999.


CALCULATION OF YIELDS AND TOTAL RETURNS

From time to time,  the Trust may  disclose  yields,  total  returns,  and other
performance  data.  Such  performance  data will be computed,  or accompanied by
performance  data  computed  in  accordance  with the  standards  defined by the
Commission.

Cash Reserves Fund Yields

From time to time,  sales  literature may quote the current  annualized yield of
the Cash  Reserves  Fund for a seven-day  period in a manner which does not take
into  consideration  any  realized or  unrealized  gains or losses on  portfolio
securities.

This  current  annualized  yield  is  computed  by  determining  the net  change
(exclusive of realized gains and losses on the sale of securities and unrealized
appreciation  and  depreciation) at the end of the seven-day period in the value
of a hypothetical  account having a balance of one share at the beginning of the
period,  dividing  such  net  change  in  account  value  by  the  value  of the
hypothetical account at the beginning of the period to determine the base period
return,  and  annualizing  this quotient on a 365-day  basis.  The net change in
value  reflects  net  income  from the  fund  attributable  to the  hypothetical
account. Current yield is calculated according to the following formula:

Current Yield = ((NCS - ES)/UV) x (365/7)


Where:

NCS =   the net change in the value of the Cash  Reserves  Fund  (exclusive  of
        realized gains or losses on the sale of securities and unrealized
        appreciation and depreciation) for the seven-day period attributable to
        a  hypothetical account having a balance of one share.

ES  =   per share expenses attributable to the hypothetical account for the
        seven-day period.

UV  =   the share value for the first day of the seven-day period.


The current  yield  based on the 7 days ended on the date of the  balance  sheet
included in the registration  statement is X.XX% for Class A and X.XX% for Class
B. The  current  effective  yield  based on the 7 days  ended on the date of the
balance sheet  included in the  registration  statement is X.XX% for Class A and
X.XX% for Class B.



Effective yield is calculated according to the following formula:

Effective yield = (1 + ((NCS-ES)/UV))365/7 - 1 Where:

NCS =   the net change in the value of the Cash  Reserves  Fund  (exclusive  of
        realized gains or losses on the sale of securities  and unrealized
        appreciation and depreciation) for the seven-day period attributable to
        a  hypothetical account having a balance of one share.

ES  =   per share expenses attributable to the hypothetical account for the
        seven-day period.

UV  =   the share value for the first day of the seven-day period.

The current  and  effective  yields on amounts  held in the Cash  Reserves  Fund
normally  fluctuate on a daily basis.  Therefore,  the  disclosed  yield for any
given past period is not an  indication  or  representation  of future yields or
rates of return. The Cash Reserves Fund's actual yield is affected by changes in
interest rates on money market securities, average portfolio maturity, the types
and quality of  portfolio  securities  held and  operating  expenses.  Yields on
amounts held in the Cash  Reserves  Fund may also be presented for periods other
than a seven-day period.

Other Fund Yields

From time to time,  sales  literature may quote the current  annualized yield of
one or more of the funds  (other  than the Cash  Reserves  Fund)  for  30-day or
one-month periods.  The annualized yield of a fund refers to income generated by
the fund during a 30-day or one-month period and is assumed to be generated each
period over a 12-month period.

The yield is computed by: 1) dividing the net investment  income of the fund for
the period;  by 2) the maximum  offering  price per share on the last day of the
period times the daily average number of shares  outstanding for the period;  by
3) compounding  that yield for a six-month  period;  and by 4) multiplying  that
result by 2. The  30-day  or  one-month  yield is  calculated  according  to the
following formula:

Yield = 2 x (((NI - ES)/(U x UV)) + 1)6 - 1)

Where:

NI  =   net income of the fund for the 30-day or one-month  period  attributable
        to the fund's shares.

ES  =   expenses of the fund for the 30-day or one-month period.

U   =   the average number of shares outstanding.

UV  =   the share value at the close (highest) of the last day in the 30-day or
        one-month period.

The yield normally fluctuates over time. Therefore,  the disclosed yield for any
given past period is not an  indication  or  representation  of future yields or
rates of return.  A fund's  actual yield is affected by the types and quality of
portfolio securities held and operating expenses.

Average Annual Total Returns


From time to time,  sales literature may also quote average annual total returns
for one or more of the funds for various  periods of time.  The one year average
annual total return for the calendar  year ending  December 31, 1999 for each of
the funds is:

Average Annual Total Returns as of December 31, 1999

        Cash Reserves Fund         X.XX%
        Bond Fund                  X.XX%
        Balanced Fund              X.XX%
        High Income Fund           X.XX%
        Growth and Income Fund     X.XX%
        Capital Appreciation Fund  X.XX%
        Emerging Growth Fund       X.XX%
        International Stock Fund   X.XX%


When a fund has been in operation for 5 and 10 years, respectively,  the average
annual total  returns for these periods will be provided.  Average  annual total
returns for other periods of time may, from time to time, also be disclosed.

Standard  average annual total returns  represent the average annual  compounded
rates of  return  that  would  equate  an  initial  investment  of $1,000 to the
redemption  value of that  investment as of the last day of each of the periods.
The ending date for each period for which total return  quotations  are provided
will  be  for  the  most  recent  month  or  calendar  quarter-end  practicable,
considering  the type of the  communication  and the media  through  which it is
communicated.

The total return is calculated according to the following formula:

TR  =   ((ERV/P)1/N) - 1 Where:

TR  =   the average annual total return net of any fund recurring charges.

ERV =   the ending redeemable value of the hypothetical account at the end of
        the period.

P   =   a hypothetical initial payment of $1,000.

N   =   the number of years in the period.

Other Total Returns

From time to time, sales  literature may also disclose  cumulative total returns
in conjunction with the standard  formats  described above. The cumulative total
returns will be calculated using the following formula:

CTR =   (ERV/P) - 1

Where:

CTR =   The cumulative total return net of any fund  recurring  charges for the
        period.

ERV =   The ending redeemable value of the hypothetical investment at the end of
        the period.

P   =   A hypothetical single payment of $1,000.

Item 25.  Indemnification

         As a Delaware business trust,  Registrant's  operations are governed by
its  Declaration  of Trust  dated  May 16,  1997  (the  Declaration  of  Trust).
Generally,  Delaware  business trust  shareholders are not personally liable for
obligations  of the Delaware  business  trust under  Delaware  law. The Delaware
Business  Trust Act (the DBTA)  provides that a shareholder  of a trust shall be
entitled to the same limitation of liability extended to shareholders of private
for-profit Delaware  corporations.  Registrant's  Declaration of Trust expressly
provides that it has been organized  under the DBTA and that the  Declaration of
Trust is to be governed by Delaware  law.  It is  nevertheless  possible  that a
Delaware business trust,  such as Registrant,  might become a party to an action
in another  state  whose  courts  refuse to apply  Delaware  law,  in which case
Registrant's shareholders could be subject to personal liability.

         To  protect  Registrant's  shareholders  against  the risk of  personal
liability,  the  Declaration  of Trust:  (i) contains an express  disclaimer  of
shareholder  liability for acts or  obligations  of Registrant and provides that
notice  of such  disclaimer  may be  given  in each  agreement,  obligation  and
instrument entered into or executed by Registrant or its Trustees; (ii) provides
for  the  indemnification  out  of  Trust  property  of  any  shareholders  held
personally liable for any obligations of Registrant or any series of Registrant;
and (iii) provides that Registrant  shall,  upon request,  assume the defense of
any claim made against any  shareholder  for any act or obligation of Registrant
and satisfy any judgment  thereon.  Thus,  the risk of a  shareholder  incurring
financial loss beyond his or her investment because of shareholder  liability is
limited to circumstances in which all of the following factors are present:  (i)
a court refuses to apply  Delaware law; (ii) the liability  arose under tort law
or, if not, no  contractual  limitation  of liability  was in effect;  and (iii)
Registrant  itself  would be  unable  to meet its  obligations.  In the light of
Delaware law, the nature of Registrant's  business and the nature of its assets,
the risk of personal liability to a shareholder is remote.

         The  Declaration  of  Trust  further  provides  that  Registrant  shall
indemnify  each of its Trustees and officers  against  liabilities  and expenses
reasonably  incurred by them, in connection with, or arising out of, any action,
suit or proceeding,  threatened  against or otherwise  involving such Trustee or
officer,  directly or indirectly, by reason of being or having been a Trustee or
officer of Registrant. The Declaration of Trust does not authorize Registrant to
indemnify any Trustee or officer  against any liability to which he or she would
otherwise be subject by reason of or for willful  misfeasance,  bad faith, gross
negligence or reckless disregard of such person's duties.

         Insofar as  indemnification  for liability arising under the Securities
Act of 1933 may be permitted to Trustees,  officers and controlling  persons, or
otherwise,  Registrant  has been advised  that in the opinion of the  Commission
such  indemnification  may be against  public policy as expressed in the Act and
may be, therefore,  unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification
against  such  liabilities  (other  than the payment by  Registrant  of expenses
incurred or paid by a Trustee,  officer or  controlling  person of Registrant in
the  successful  defense of any action,  suit or proceeding) is asserted by such
Trustee,  officer or controlling  person in connection with the securities being
registered, 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  indemnification  by it is against public
policy as expressed in the Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of
such issue.
