                                 MARCH 31, 2000
                                   (UNAUDITED)

NOTE 1.  ORGANIZATION

     The 10K  SmartTrust  Fund (the  "Fund")  was  organized  as a series of 10K
SmartTrust  (the  "Trust").   The  Trust  is  an  open-end   investment  company
established  under the laws of Ohio by an  Agreement  and  Declaration  of Trust
dated  April 6,  1999 (the  "Trust  Agreement")  and  commencing  operations  on
November 15, 1999. The Fund is registered  under the  Investment  Company Act of
1940, as amended, as a diversified  open-end management  investment company. The
Fund's investment  objective is to provide  long-term capital growth.  The Trust
Agreement  permits  the  Trustees  to issue an  unlimited  number  of  shares of
beneficial  interest of separate series without par value.  The Fund is one of a
series of funds currently authorized by the Trustees.

NOTE 2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

     The following is a summary of significant  accounting  policies followed by
the Fund in the preparation of its financial statements.

     SECURITIES VALUATIONS-  Securities,  which are traded on any exchange or on
the NASDAQ  over-the-counter  market,  are valued at the last quoted sale price.
Lacking a last sale  price,  a security  is valued at its last bid price  except
when, in the Advisor's  opinion,  the last bid price does not accurately reflect
the  current   value  of  the   security.   All  other   securities   for  which
over-the-counter  market  quotations  are readily  available are valued at their
last bid price.  When  market  quotations  are not readily  available,  when the
Advisor  determines the last bid price does not  accurately  reflect the current
value or when restricted securities are being valued, such securities are valued
as  determined  in good faith by the  Advisor,  in  conformity  with  guidelines
adopted  by and  subject  to review of the Board of  Trustees  of the Trust (the
"Board").

     Fixed income  securities  generally are valued by using market  quotations,
but may be valued on the basis of prices furnished by a pricing service when the
Advisor  believes such prices  accurately  reflect the fair market value of such
securities.  A pricing service  utilizes  electronic data processing  techniques
based on yield spreads  relating to securities with similar  characteristics  to
determine prices for normal institutional-size  trading units of debt securities
without regard to sale or bid prices. When prices are not readily available from
a pricing service,  or when restricted or illiquid  securities are being valued,
securities  are valued at fair value as determined in good faith by the Advisor,
subject  to  review  of  the  Board.   Short-term  investments  in  fixed-income
securities  with  maturities  of less  than  60 days  when  acquired,  or  which
subsequently  are within 60 days of maturity,  are valued by using the amortized
cost method of valuation,  which the Board has  determined  will  represent fair
value.

                               10K SMARTTRUST FUND
                          NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                     MARCH 31, 2000 (UNAUDITED) - CONTINUED

NOTE 2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES - CONTINUED

FEDERAL  INCOME  TAXES- The Fund  intends to qualify  each year as a  "regulated
investment  company" under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended.  By so
qualifying,  the Fund will not be subject to federal  income taxes to the extent
that it  distributes  substantially  all of its net  investment  income  and any
realized capital gains.

DIVIDENDS AND DISTRIBUTIONS- The Fund intends to distribute substantially all of
its net investment income as dividends to its shareholders on at least an annual
basis.  The Fund intends to distribute  its net long-term  capital gains and its
net short-term capital gains at least once a year.

OTHER- The Fund follows industry  practice and records security  transactions on
the trade date. The specific identification method is used for determining gains
or losses for financial  statements and income tax purposes.  Dividend income is
recorded on the  ex-dividend  date and interest income is recorded on an accrual
basis.  Discounts  and premiums on securities  purchased are amortized  over the
life of the respective securities.

NOTE 3. FEES AND OTHER TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES

The Trust  retains  Monument  Investments,  Inc.  (the  "Advisor") to manage the
Fund's  investments.  The Advisor was  organized  in 1996.  J. Paul  Hamilton is
primarily responsible for the day-to-day management of the Fund's portfolio. The
President of the Advisor is also President of the Trust.

     Under the terms of the management agreement, (the "Agreement"), the Advisor
manages the Fund's investments subject to approval of the Board of Trustees.  As
compensation  for its  management  services,  the Fund is  obligated  to pay the
Advisor  a fee of 1.50% of the  average  daily net  assets of the Fund.  For the
period November 15, 1999 (commencement of operations) through March 31, 2000 the
Advisor  received a fee of $1,791 from the Fund.  The  Advisor  has  voluntarily
agreed to reimburse  other  expenses to the extent  necessary to maintain  total
operating  expenses  at the rate of 2.50%.  For the  period  November  15,  1999
(commencement  of  operations)  through March 31, 2000,  the Advisor  reimbursed
expenses of $8,623.  There is no assurance that such reimbursement will continue
in the future.

                          NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                     MARCH 31, 2000 (UNAUDITED) - CONTINUED

NOTE 3. FEES AND OTHER TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES - CONTINUED

     The Fund retains AmeriPrime Financial Services,  Inc. (the "Administrator")
to manage the Fund's business  affairs and provide the Fund with  administrative
services,  including all regulatory reporting and necessary office equipment and
personnel. For the period November 15, 1999 (commencement of operations) through
March 31,  2000,  the  Administrator  received  fees of $4,225 from the Fund for
administrative services provided to the Fund.

     The Fund has adopted a  distribution  plan pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the
Investment  Company Act of 1940.  This rule allows the Fund to pay  distribution
fees for the sale and  distribution  of its shares and for services  provided to
its shareholders. The annual distribution and service fee is 1.00% of the Fund's
average daily net assets.  This fee is payable to the Advisor,  as  Distribution
Coordinator. Because these fees are paid out of the Fund's assets on an on-going
basis,  over time these fees will  increase the cost of your  investment in Fund
shares and may cost you more than paying other types of sales charges.  The Fund
retains AmeriPrime Financial Securities,  Inc. ("the Distributor") to act as the
principal  distributor of the Fund's shares.  There were no payments made to the
Distributor  for the period  November  15,  1999  (commencement  of  operations)
through March 31, 2000.

NOTE 4.  TAXES

   When you establish a 10K SmartTrust Account, you will be treated, for Federal
gift tax purposes, as the donor of a future interest. Any additional investments
you make in your 10K  SmartTrust  Account during the term of your 10K SmartTrust
will  likewise  be  considered  to be gifts of a future  interest.  As a result,
neither your initial  investment nor any subsequent  investment will qualify for
the Annual Gift Tax Exclusion of $10,000  (indexed for inflation).  Accordingly,
you will be  required to file a United  States  Gift Tax Return  (Form 709) with
respect to any year in which you make an investment in your 10K  SmartTrust.  No
gift tax is payable,  however,  until your "Lifetime  Exemption" or "Unified Tax
Credit" is  exceeded.  For tax years  through  1999,  the  Unified Tax Credit is
$650,000;  this amount will increase to $1,000,000 by 2006. Each gift is applied
against the  exemption  equivalent  that would  otherwise  be  available  in the
future.  Each 10K  SmartTrust  Account for which the trustee  files a tax return
will  be  charged  a $25  fee  to  help  offset  a  portion  of the  tax  return
preparation.  Additionally,  as each 10K SmartTrust  Account reaches  maturity a
$100 administrative fee will be charged to help offset any costs incurred by the
trustee associated with the 10K SmartTrust attaining maturity.

NOTE 4. TAXES - CONTINUED

Note: The above  paragraph  holds true unless the grantor offers the beneficiary
the right to withdraw  the annual gift tax  exclusion  of $10,000  (indexed  for
inflation)  within  30  days  of  establishing  the 10K  SmartTrust.  In  making
available the withdrawal  option to the beneficiary,  the gift would be deemed a
current interest gift and would now qualify for the annual gift tax exclusion of
$10,000.

NOTE 5.  SHARE TRANSACTIONS

     As of March 31, 2000 there were an unlimited  number of  authorized  shares
for the Fund. Paid in capital at March 31, 2000 was $670,000.

     Transactions in shares were as follows:

NOTE 7. ESTIMATES

     Preparation of financial  statements in accordance with generally  accepted
accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that
affect the reported  amounts of assets and liabilities and the reported  amounts
of revenues and expenses  during the  reporting  period.  Actual  results  could
differ from those estimates.
