MESSAGE TO SHAREHOLDERS
DEAR FELLOW SHAREHOLDERS:
We are pleased to send you the Analytic Funds Annual report for the year ended
December 31, 1998. We appreciate your loyalty and support in this year of
transition.
ANALYTIC FUNDS PERFORMANCE
This was a banner year for our two equity mutual funds. The Defensive Equity
Fund outperformed the S&P 500 Index returning 28.89% without the impact of a
sales charge (21.45% had a sales charge been paid) versus a return of 28.60% for
the S&P. This was an unexpected accomplishment for this otherwise defensive
program. We generally do not anticipate exceptional performance from the
Defensive Equity Fund during strong bull markets, since the hedging program
tends to limit upside participation after a certain point. The strength of our
equity selection within the Defensive Equity Fund, however, outweighed the
limiting impact of our hedging activities.
The Enhanced Equity Fund continued to perform well in 1998. The total return for
the Enhanced Equity Fund in 1998 was 37.82% without the impact of a sales charge
(29.96% had a sales charge been paid), easily beating the S&P 500's 28.60%
return over the same period. Returns of the Enhanced Equity Fund were consistent
as well, and did not result from a single event: the Fund outperformed the S&P
500 in 10 of the 12 months of 1998, and managed to weather the summer market
correction in the stock market without significant added volatility.
With their strong returns in 1998, both equity funds received widespread
recognition in the media, including positive articles and high rankings in the
NEW YORK TIMES, the WALL STREET JOURNAL, and BUSINESS WEEK, as well as
recognition on popular investment websites such as THESTREET.COM and MICROSOFT
INVESTOR, to name a few.
The Short-Term Government Fund also beat its benchmark in 1998. That Fund
returned 7.10% without the impact of a sales charge (5.51% had a sales charge
been paid) in 1998, beating the Merrill Lynch 1-3 Year Treasury Index's 7.00%
performance over the same time period. The Master Fixed Income Fund, however,
underperformed its benchmark in 1998 returning 3.80% without the impact of a
sales charge (-1.14% had a sales charge been paid) versus the Lehman Brother
Government/Corporate Bond Index return of 9.47%. While the Master Fixed Income
Fund was generally successful throughout the year, the corporate credit exposure
in the program was adversely impacted by the stock market's decline in August,
overwhelming the otherwise steady gains achieved throughout much of the rest of
1998.
We are excited about the potential for the funds and we thank you for your
continued interest and support in the Analytic Funds.
Sincerely,
/S/ Harindra de Silva /S/ Greg McMurran

ANALYTIC DEFENSIVE EQUITY FUND
Portfolio Profile
OBJECTIVE: This equity-income portfolio seeks to obtain greater long-term total
returns and smaller fluctuations in quarterly total return from a diversified,
hedged common stock portfolio than from the same portfolio unhedged.
INVESTS IN: Large capitalization companies
STRATEGY: The Analytic Defensive Equity Fund is managed with a focus on: (1)
optimal portfolio construction and (2) active hedging applied to various
security positions. In the short run, this strategy is expected to: (1) improve
upon the return of the equity market when the equity market is gradually rising
or flat, (2)capture a large fraction of the return when the equity market is
steeply rising, and (3) provide substantial protection in declining markets. All
stocks in the S&P 500 index are ranked according to each stock's one month
expected return outlook, based on the forecasts of a sophisticated proprietary
mathematical model. Over 70 separate factors drive the modeling process.
Variables chosen for the modeling process are drawn from categories such as
risk, momentum, valuation, growth and liquidity. An adaptive weighting scheme
allows those variables that have been most effective over recent horizons to
have the greatest weight in predicting expected returns. Based on the rankings,
a non-linear optimization process is used to determine a portfolio that attempts
to maximize expected return while keeping expected volatility less than that of
the S&P 500. Additional constraints are used in the optimization process to
insure that the resulting portfolio has minimal exposure to size, style, and
industry sector biases. Hedging decisions are based on estimates of the fair
value and expected contribution made by the position to the portfolio's overall
expected return. Although the portfolio is at least partially hedged at all
times, if hedging a particular position does not contribute to the portfolio's
stability and growth, it is not hedged.
Performance
The calendar year 1998 was a banner year for large cap U.S. equities. The S&P
500 returned 28.6% for the year, making it a rough year for most conservative
portfolios. The average Lipper Equity-Income Fund was up 11.4% for the year,
providing evidence of the trade-off investors typically are forced to make when
assembling a conservative investment portfolio. Despite this challenge to our
defensive portfolio, the Fund was able to return 28.89% (21.45% had a sales
charge been paid) for the year. Not only was this better than the average
equity-income fund for the year, but the Fund actually out-performed its peer
group in all four quarters during 1998.
Portfolio Highlights
Analytic Investors, Inc. has assembled what we believe to be a truly unique
defensive portfolio. It has no size, style or industry sector biases, and has a
beta of approximately 0.70. Furthermore, it has no large weights in any one
individual security, with position sizes generally limited to 2%. Despite its
low risk nature, the Defensive Equity Fund out-performed the S&P 500 in a very
strong equity market. The reason -- successful implementation of our proprietary
valuation model and a commitment to hedging the portfolio, regardless of market
environment. Of course past performance is never a guarantee of future results.

ANALYTIC ENHANCED EQUITY FUND
Portfolio Profile
OBJECTIVE: This diversified equity portfolio seeks to provide above-average
returns from a domestic common stock portfolio.
INVESTS IN: Large capitalization companies
STRATEGY: The portfolio attempts to outperform the S&P 500 Index through: (1)
the use of a disciplined quantitative strategy to identify an undervalued
portfolio of stocks and, (2) the use of an optimization-based approach for
portfolio construction to efficiently control risk. Analytic Investors ranks all
stocks in the S&P 500 index according to each stock's one month expected return
outlook, based on the forecasts of a sophisticated proprietary mathematical
model. Over 70 separate factors drive the modeling process. Variables chosen for
the modeling process are drawn from categories such as risk, momentum,
valuation, growth and liquidity. An adaptive weighting scheme allows those
variables that have been most effective over recent horizons to have the
greatest weight in predicting expected returns. Based on the rankings, a
non-linear optimization process is used to determine a portfolio that attempts
to maximize expected return while keeping expected volatility less than that of
the S&P 500. Additional constraints are used in the optimization process to
attempt to insure that the resulting portfolio has minimal exposure to size,
style, and industry sector biases.
Performance
The calendar year 1998 was a banner year for large cap U.S. equities. The most
prevalent U.S. large capitalization index, the S&P 500, had positive returns 9
of the 12 months and 3 of the 4 quarters. Even with a 14.4% decline in August,
the 28.6% annual performance made U.S. large capitalization securities one of
the best investments available. The rally was concentrated in a relatively few
issues however, as only 28% of the stocks in the S&P 500 beat the index. Despite
this challenging environment for active stock selection, the Fund systematically
out-performed the S&P 500 throughout the year, out pacing it in 10 of the 12
months. The Fund's out-performance was found in both rising and falling markets,
as it beat the S&P in 8 of the 9 positive months and 2 of the 3 negative months.
In total, the fund was up 37.82% (29.96% had a sales charge been paid), easily
beating the S&P 500's 28.6% for the year. Relative to its peer group, the Lipper
Growth Funds Universe, the Fund's performance was also strong. The Fund's 37.9%
beat the average fund in the Lipper Growth Fund category by 16.2%, as the
average fund returned 21.7% for the year.
Portfolio Highlights
With a lower beta and a lower standard deviation than the S&P 500, Analytic
Investors, Inc. has assembled a portfolio that looks strikingly similar to the
S&P 500. It has no size, style or industry sector biases, and it typically moves
in a manner that is very highly correlated to U.S. large capitalization
securities in general. Furthermore, it has no large weights in any one
individual security, with position size generally limited to 2%. All this being
said, the systematic application of our proprietary valuation model does allow
the fund an opportunity to out-perform passive indices, and the consistently
strong performance throughout 1998 offered a glimpse into the return potential
of a disciplined investment approach. Of course past performance is no guarantee
of future results.

ANALYTIC MASTER FIXED INCOME FUND
Portfolio Profile
OBJECTIVE: This portfolio seeks to provide above-average total returns from a
diversified portfolio consisting primarily of domestic government, corporate,
and mortgage-related fixed income securities. The portfolio also includes
various synthetic fixed income securities constructed using listed options.
INVESTS IN: Primarily U.S. Treasury, U.S. Agency, and U.S. dollar denominated
high grade debt securities, including mortgage-related securities. Subject to
certain additional limitations, under normal market conditions, a portion of the
assets may be invested in floating rate and other types of debt securities, high
grade non-US dollar denominated debt securities, below high grade fixed income
securities, convertible securities, synthetic convertible positions, covered
call and cash secured put investments, preferred stock, and the shares of other
investment companies which invest primarily in high grade debt securities. The
Fund may also invest in currency and rate-related derivative securities.
STRATEGY: Portfolio volatility is targeted to be similar to that of the Lehman
Brothers Government/Corporate Bond Index. A diversified portfolio with this
targeted risk characteristic is constructed using high quality corporates,
mortgages and government securities, as well as listed options. Fixed income and
cash instruments typically account for approximately 97% of the portfolio value
with the remaining 3% invested in selected option positions.
Synthetic corporate positions are selected based on the application of a
proprietary option valuation process. This process values the embedded option
component of a fixed income security as well as combinations of options and
fixed income securities. Estimates of the return volatility of underlying
securities or sectors are the most important element in this valuation process.
Analytic Investors has produced such volatility forecasts for over 25 years.
Performance
For the year ended December 31, 1998, the Fund's total return was 3.80% (-1.14%
had a sales charge been paid) versus the Lehman Brothers Government/Corporate
Bond Index return of 9.47%. Despite a strong fourth quarter, with the Fund
rising 0.67% versus the LBG/C Index rising 0.13%, the Fund under-performed the
Index for the calendar year 1998.
Portfolio Highlights
The vast majority of the performance difference between the Fund and the Index
occurred in the third quarter of 1998. During this period, the U.S. Equity
markets broke from a long string of 14 consecutive quarterly gains to finish
nearly 10% lower. Corporate bonds, which have a small but inherent equity
exposure, suffered along with this downturn. As stocks fell, investors sought a
flight to quality. Consequently, U.S. Treasury issues soared while credit
spreads widened.
The Fund maintains exposure to the corporate sector as a source of added value.
Despite the large downturn of the third quarter, we believe that over a full
market cycle the Fund should produce returns superior to those of the Lehman
Brothers Government/Corporate Bond Index. Indeed, during the fourth quarter
credit spreads narrowed and reverted closer to historical averages.

included are Yankee Bonds and nonconvertible debt issued or guaranteed by
foreign or international governments or agencies. All issues are investment
grade (BBB) or higher, with maturities of at least one year outstanding, par
value of at least $100 million for U.S. Government issues and $25 million

ANALYTIC SHORT-TERM GOVERNMENT FUND
Portfolio Profile
OBJECTIVE: This government bond portfolio seeks to provide a high level of
income consistent with both low fluctuations in market value and low credit
risk.
INVESTS IN: Primarily U.S. Treasury and Agency securities. Subject to certain
additional limitations, a portion of the assets may be invested in other high
grade debt securities, debt securities of foreign governments and supranational
organizations considered to be of high grade investment quality, currency rate
and interest rate-related derivatives, cash and cash equivalents.
STRATEGY: Portfolio volatility is targeted to be similar to that of the Merrill
Lynch 1 to 3 Year U.S. Treasury Index. A diversified portfolio with this
targeted risk characteristic is constructed using U.S. Government and Agency
issues, high quality corporates, mortgages, as well fixed income and currency
futures. Fixed income and cash instruments typically account for 100% of the
portfolio.
The Fund is constructed to closely match its benchmark with respect to duration,
maturity and quality. In addition, Analytic Investors uses a disciplined
quantitative approach to forecast short-term interest rates and shifts in the
U.S. treasury yield curve as a source of added value.
Performance
For the year ended December 31, 1998, the Fund's total return was 7.10% (5.51%
had a sales charge been paid) versus the Merrill Lynch 1 to 3 Year U.S. Treasury
Index return of 7.00%. Performance was strong for the year except for the fourth
quarter, when the Fund posted a total return of 0.19% versus 0.76% for that of
the Merrill Lynch 1-3 Index.
Portfolio Highlights
The out-performance by the Fund was attributable to successful implementation
Portfolio changes based on Analytic Investor's forecasting of shifts in the
yield curve as well as movements in short-term interest rates.
During September and October, Federal Reserve Chairman Alan Greenspan cut
short-term interest rates three times as part of ongoing measures to keep the
growth of the U.S. economy in balance. He did so during the two scheduled
monthly meetings over this period and once at an unscheduled date in between.
This unscheduled action, though not unprecedented, has not been seen for many
years and shows the aggressiveness of the Federal Reserve in regulating the
growth of the U.S. economy.
During this period, the Fund was properly positioned to capitalize on these rate
cuts, enhancing its performance.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS
TO THE SHAREHOLDERS AND BOARD OF DIRECTORS
OF PBHG ADVISORS FUNDS, INC.:
In our opinion, the accompanying statements of net assets of the PBHG Advisor
Funds, Inc. consisting of the Analytic Defensive Equity, Analytic Enhanced
Equity, Analytic Master Fixed Income, and Analytic Short-Term Government Funds
(the "Funds") and the related statements of operations and of changes in net
assets, and the financial highlights, present fairly, in all material respects,
the financial position of the Funds at December 31, 1998, and the results of
their operations, the changes in their net assets and the financial highlights
for the year then ended, in conformity with generally accepted accounting
principles. These financial statements and financial highlights (hereafter
referred to as "financial statements") are the responsibility of the Funds'
management; our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial
statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits of these financial
statements in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards which
require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about
whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit
includes examining on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and
disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles
used and significant estimates made by management and evaluating the overall
financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits, which included
confirmation of securities at December 31, 1998 by correspondence with the
custodian and brokers provide a reasonable basis for the opinion expressed
above. The financial statements of the Funds for the fiscal periods presented
prior to the year ended December 31, 1998 were audited by other independent
accountants whose report date February 6, 1998 expressed an unqualified opinion
on those statements.

1. ORGANIZATION
PBHG Advisor Funds, Inc. (the Company), a Maryland corporation, is registered
under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, as an open-end management
investment company with seventeen series: the PBHG Advisor Core Value Fund (the
"Core Value Fund"), the PBHG Advisor Value Opportunities Fund (the "Value
Opportunities Fund"), the PBHG Advisor New Contrarian Fund (the "New Contrarian
Fund"), the PBHG Advisor REIT Fund (the "REIT Fund"), the PBHG Advisor Large Cap
Concentrated Fund (the "Large Cap Concentrated Fund"), the PBHG Advisor Growth
II Fund (the "Growth II Fund"), the PBHG Advisor New Opportunities Fund (the
"New Opportunities Fund"), the PBHG Advisor Global Technology & Communications
Fund (the "Global Technology & Communications Fund"), the PBHG Advisor Blue Chip
Growth Fund (the "Blue Chip Growth Fund"), the PBHG Advisor Growth Opportunities
Fund (the "Growth Opportunities Fund"), the PBHG Advisor Enhanced Equity Fund
(the "Enhanced Equity Fund"), the PBHG Advisor Trend Fund (the "Trend Fund") and
the PBHG Advisor Defensive Equity Fund (the "Defensive Equity Fund"),
(collectively referred to as the "Equity Funds"), the PBHG Advisor Master Fixed
Income Fund (the "Master Fixed Income Fund"), the PBHG Advisor High Yield Fund
(the "High Yield Fund"), the PBHG Advisor Cash Reserves Fund (the "Cash Reserves
Fund"), and the PBHG Advisor Short-Term Government Fund (the "Short-Term
Government Fund") (each a "Fund" and, collectively, the "Funds"). As of December
31, 1998, the Value Opportunities Fund, the New Contrarian Fund, the Reit Fund,
the Growth II Fund, the Global Technology & Communications Fund, the Growth
Opportunities Fund, the Trend Fund and the High Yield Fund had not commenced
operations. The Blue Chip Growth Fund, Cash Reserves Fund and the Large Cap
Concentrated Fund commenced operations on June 30, 1998 and ceased operations on
or before December 31, 1998. The financial statements presented herein do not
include the Core Value Fund or New Opportunities Fund which are presented
separately. Each of the Funds has distinct investment objectives and policies
that are described in the prospectus. The assets of each fund are segregated,
and a shareholder's interest is limited to the fund in which shares are held.
Effective December 31, 1998, the PBHG Advisor Defensive Equity Fund, the PBHG
Advisor Enhanced Equity Fund, the PBHG Advisor Master Fixed Income Fund and the
PBHG Advisor Short-Term Government Fund changed their names to Analytic
Defensive Equity Fund, Analytic Enhanced Equity Fund, Analytic Master Fixed
Income Fund and Analytic Short-Term Government Fund respectively.
(2) SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The following is a summary of the significant accounting policies followed by
the Funds.
DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS -- Each Fund may utilize various call option,
put option and financial futures strategies in pursuit of its objective. These
techniques will be used to hedge against changes in securities prices, interest
rates, or foreign currency exchange rates on securities held or intended to be
acquired by the fund to reduce the volatility of the currency exposure
associated with foreign securities, or an an efficient means of adjusting
exposure to stock and bond markets, and not for speculation. The portfolios will
only write covered call and cash secured put options on common stock or stock
indices.
SECURITY VALUATION -- Investment securities of the Equity Funds that are listed
on a securities exchange, and for which market quotations are readily available,
are valued at the last quoted sales price at the close of the primary exchange
(currently 4:00 p.m. Eastern time). If there is no such reported sale, these
securities and unlisted securities for which market quotations are readily
available, are valued at the last bid price. However, debt securities (other
than short-term obligations), including listed issues, are valued on the basis
of valuations furnished by a pricing service which utilizes electronic data
processing techniques to determine valuations for normal institutional size
trading units of debt securities, without exclusive reliance upon exchange or
over-the-counter prices. Short-term investments may be valued at amortized cost
which approximates market value. Foreign securities are valued based upon
quotations from the primary market in which they are traded, and are translated
from the local currency into U.S. dollars using current exchange rates. In
addition, if quotations are not readily available, or if the values have been
materially affected by events occurring after the closing of a foreign market,
assets may be valued by another method that the Board of Directors believes
accurately reflects fair value.
WRITTEN OPTION ACCOUNTING PRINCIPLES -- When a covered put or call option is
written in a portfolio, an amount equal to the premium received by the portfolio
is included in the portfolio's statement of assets and liabilities as an asset
and an equivalent liability. The amount of the liability will be subsequently
marked-to-market to reflect the current market value of the option written.
When a covered written call expires on its stipulated expiration date, or if the
portfolio enters into a closing purchase transaction, the Fund will realized a
gain (or loss if the cost of the closing purchase transaction exceeds the
premium received when the call option was written) without regard to any
unrealized gain or loss on the underlying security, and the liability related to
such option will be extinguished. When a covered written call option is
exercised, the Fund will realize a gain or loss from the sale of the underlying
security and the proceeds of the sale are increased by the premium originally
received.
When a portfolio writes a covered put option, cash equal to the exercise price
is placed in an interest-bearing escrow account to collateralize the outstanding
put option. When a put option expires, or if the portfolio enters into a closing
purchase transaction, the portfolio will realize a gain or loss on the option
transaction, the cash is released from escrow, and the liability related to such
option is extinguished. When a put option is exercised, the portfolio uses the
cash in escrow to purchase the security, the cost of the security is reduced by
the premium originally received, and no gain or loss is recognized.
SECURITY TRANSACTIONS AND INVESTMENT INCOME -- Security transactions are
accounted for on the date the securities are purchased or sold (trade date).
Dividend income and distributions to shareholders are recognized on the
ex-dividend date; interest income is recognized on the accrual basis. Costs used
in determining realized capital gains and losses on the sale of investment
securities are those of the specific securities sold adjusted for the accretion
and amortization of acquisition discounts and premiums during the
respectiveholding periods. Acquisition discounts and premiums are accreted and
amortized to maturity using a method which approximates the effective interest
method.
DIVIDENDS -- Dividends from net investment income for the Equity Funds are
declared annually, if available. Dividends from net investment income for the
Master Fixed Income Fund and the Short-Term Government Fund are declared daily
and paid monthly. Distributions of net realized capital gains, for all funds,
are generally made to shareholders annually. Dividends from net investment
income and distributions from net realized capital gains are determined in
accordance with U.S. Federal income tax regulations, which may differ from those
amounts determined under generally accepted accounting principles. These
book/tax differences are either temporary or permanent in nature. To the extent
these differences are permanent, they are charged or credited to paid-in-capital
or accumulated net realized gain, as appropriate, in the period that the
differences arise.
FEDERAL INCOME TAXES -- It is each Fund's intention to qualify as a regulated
investment company for federal income tax purposes, and to distribute all of its
taxable income and net capital gains. Accordingly, no provision has been made
for Federal income taxes.

ANALYTIC FUNDS
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
At December 31, 1998 the Analytic Funds had the following unused capital loss
carryforwards. These realized losses are intended to be used to offset future
net capital gains, to the extent provided by regulations through the following
expiration dates:
2001 2002 2003 2004 2005
------- ------- -------- -------- ------
Short-Term Government Fund $17,718 $57,661 $257,536 $444,657 $3,860
NET ASSET VALUE PER SHARE -- The net asset value per share is calculated each
business day by dividing the total value of each Fund's assets, less
liabilities, by the number of shares outstanding.
REPURCHASE AGREEMENTS -- Securities pledged as collateral for repurchase
agreements are held by a third party custodian bank until the respective
agreements mature. Provisions of the repurchase agreements and procedures
adopted by Pilgrim Baxter & Associates, Ltd. (the "Adviser") ensure that the
market value of the collateral including accrued interest thereon, is sufficient
in the event of default by the counterparty. If the counterparty defaults and
the value of the collateral declines, or if the counterparty enters into
insolvency proceedings, realization of the collateral by a Fund may be delayed
or limited.
OTHER -- Expenses that are directly related to one of the Funds are charged
directly to that Fund. Other operating expenses are prorated to the Funds on the
basis of relative net assets. Class specific expenses, such as 12b-1 service
fees and transfer agent fees, are borne directly by that class. Income, other
expenses and realized and unrealized gains and losses of a Fund are allocated to
the respective class on the basis of the relative net assets each day.
USE OF ESTIMATES IN THE PREPARATION OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- The preparation
of financial statements, in conformity with generally accepted accounting
principles, requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect
the reported amount of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent
assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported
amounts of revenue and expenses during the reported period. Actual results could
differ from those estimates.
(3) INVESTMENT ADVISORY FEES, ADMINISTRATIVE FEES AND OTHER TRANSACTIONS WITH
AFFILIATES
The Company and the Adviser are parties to an Investment Advisory Agreement (the
"Advisory Agreement"). Under the terms of the Advisory Agreement, the Adviser is
entitled to a fee, which is calculated daily and paid monthly, at an annual rate
of 0.60% of the average net assets of the Enhanced Equity and Defensive Equity
Funds; 0.45% of the average net assets of the Master Fixed Income Fund; and
0.30% of the average net assets of the Short-Term Government Fund.
Analytic Investors, Inc. (formerly Pilgrim Baxter Analytic Investors, Inc.)
serves as the sub-adviser to the Enhanced Equity, Defensive Equity, Master Fixed
Income, and Short-Term Government Funds. For its services provided pursuant to
its Investment Sub-Advisory Agreement with the Adviser and the Fund, Analytic
Investors, Inc. is entitled to receive, from the amounts received by the
Adviser, a sub-advisory fee with respect to the average daily net assets of each
such Fund that is computed daily and paid monthly at annual rates of 0.40%,
0.40%, 0.25%, and 0.10%, respectively. Analytic Investors, Inc. receives no fees
directly from the Enhanced Equity, Defensive Equity, Master Fixed Income, and
Short-Term Government Funds.
In the interest of limiting the expenses of the Funds, the Adviser has entered
into an Expense Limitation Agreement with the Company, on behalf of each Fund.
The Adviser has agreed to waive or limit its advisory fees or assume other
expenses in an amount that operates to limit the aggregate annual total of
certain operating expenses of each Fund as follows: 0.82% of the Defensive
Equity Fund and Enhanced Equity Fund; 0.67% of the Master Fixed Income Fund; and
0.52% of the Short-Term Government Fund. The expenses subject to such limitation
are those that are not specifically allocated to a class of shares of a Fund
under the Company's multiple class plan (the "Rule 18f-3 Plan") including, but
not limited to, investment advisory fees of the Adviser, but excluding: (i)
interest, taxes, brokerage commissions, and other expenditures which are
capitalized in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles; (ii)
expenses specifically allocated to a class of shares of a Fund under the Rule
18f-3 Plan, such as Rule 12b-1 expenses and transfer agency fees; and (iii)
other extraordinary expenses not incurred in the ordinary course of a Fund's
business. Reimbursement by the Funds of the advisory fees waived or limited and
other expenses paid by the Adviser pursuant to the Expense Limitation Agreement
may be made at a later date when such Funds have reached a sufficient asset size
to permit reimbursement to be made without causing the total annual expense
ratio of each Fund to exceed the percentages listed above. Consequently, no
reimbursement by a Fund will be made unless: (i) the Fund's assets exceed $75
million; (ii) the Fund's total annual expense ratio is less than the above
specified percentage; and (iii) the payment of such reimbursement was approved
by the Board of Directors on a quarterly basis.
At December 31, 1998, the amount of advisory fee waiver and reimbursement of
third party expenses by the Adviser subject to possible reimbursement were as
follows:
Defensive Equity Fund $112,512
Enhanced Equity Fund $106,882
Master Fixed Income Fund $32,957
Short-Term Government Fund $35,588
PBHG Fund Services (the "Administrator"), a wholly-owned subsidiary of the
Adviser, provides the Funds with administrative services, including regulatory
reporting and all necessary office space, equipment, personnel and facilities.
For these administrative services, the Administrator is entitled to a fee, which
is calculated daily and paid monthly, at an annual rate of 0.15% of the average
daily net assets of the Funds.
SEI Investments Management Corporation, a wholly-owned subsidiary of SEI
Investments Corporation, is the owner of all beneficial interest in SEI
Investments Mutual Fund Services (the "Sub-Administrator"). The
Sub-Administrator assists the Administrator in providing administrative services
to the Funds.
PBHG Fund Distributors, a wholly owned subsidiary of the Adviser, provides the
Funds with distribution services.
DST Systems, Inc. serves as the transfer agent and dividend disbursing agent for
the Funds under a transfer agent agreement with the Funds. PBHG Fund Services
provides shareholder support and other shareholder account-related services with
assistance from UAM Shareholder Service Center, Inc. First Union National Bank
serves as the custodian for the Funds.
The Funds have adopted Distribution Plans (the "12b-1 Plan") for those Funds
offering Class A and B shares. The Plan provides for the payment by the Funds to
the Distributor of up to 0.35% of each Fund's average net assets attributable to
Class A shares and up to 1.00% for Class B shares. The Funds' directors have
determined that payments under the 12b-1 distribution plan for Class A shares
will currently be limited to 0.25%. Class I shares are not subject to 12b-1
fees.
Certain officers and directors of the Fund who are or were officers of the
Adviser, Administrator, Sub-Administrator and the Distributor receive no
compensation from the Fund for their services.

normal course of its investment activities in order to manage exposure to market
risks such as interest rates. The contractual amounts of these instruments
represent the investment the Fund has in particular classes of financial
instruments and does not necessarily represent the amounts potentially subject
to risk. The measurement of the risks associated with these instruments is
meaningful only when all related and offsetting transactions are considered.

(6) FUTURES CONTRACTS
Each Fund may enter into futures contracts to the extent permitted by its
investment policies and objectives. Upon entering into a futures contract, a
fund is required to make a deposit of a portion of the initial margin with its
custodian in a segregated account, in addition, the fund will deposit securities
with the broker for the remainder of the margin requirement. Subsequent
payments, which are dependent on the daily fluctuations in the value of the
underlying instrument, are made or received by a Fund each day (daily variation
margin) and are recorded as unrealized gains or losses until the contracts are
closed . When the contract is closed, a Fund records a realized gain or loss
equal to the difference between the proceeds from (or cost of) the closing
transactions and a fund's basis in the contract. Risks of entering into futures
contracts include the possibility that a change in the value of the contract may
not correlate with the changes in the value of the underlying instruments.
Second, it is possible that a lack of liquidity for futures contracts could
exist in the secondary market, resulting in an inability to close a futures
position prior to its maturity date. Third, the purchase of a futures contract
involves the risk that a fund could lose more than the original margin deposit
required to initiate a futures transaction.
The following Funds had futures contracts open as of December 31, 1998.
