                      Supplement dated December 16, 1997 to
         the Statement of Additional Information dated November 3, 1997


         The following paragraph should be added on page 12 after the two
paragraphs under the caption "Investment Objectives and Polices -- Repurchase
Agreements."

"REVERSE REPURCHASE AGREEMENTS

         Consistent with Charter's policy on borrowings, Charter may invest in
reverse repurchase agreements with banks, which involve the sale of securities
held by the Fund, with an agreement that the Fund will repurchase the securities
at an agreed upon price and date. The Fund may employ reverse repurchase
agreements (i) for temporary emergency purposes, such as to meet unanticipated
net redemptions so as to avoid liquidating other portfolio securities during
unfavorable market conditions; (ii) to cover short-term cash requirements
resulting from the timing of trade settlements; or (iii) to take advantage of
market situations where the interest income to be earned from the investment of
the proceeds of the transaction is greater than the interest expense of the
transaction. At the time it enters into a reverse repurchase agreement, the Fund
will segregate liquid securities having a dollar value equal to the repurchase
price. Reverse repurchase agreements are considered borrowings by the Fund under
the 1940 Act."
