                                YIELD INFORMATION

    The yield is computed in accordance with a standardized formula described in
the Statement of Additional Information.


    For the seven-day  period ended  December 31, 1995,  the Trust's  annualized
current yield was 4.79% and the compounded effective yield was 4.91%. This yield
is  subject  to market  conditions  and will  fluctuate  daily as income  earned
fluctuates.  The above yield quotations are not an indication or  representation
by the Trust of future yields or rates of return.  This Prospectus may be in use
for a full  year  and it  can be  expected  that  these  yields  will  fluctuate
substantially over that time. To obtain a current yield quotation for the Trust,
call the  appropriate  toll free  telephone  number  listed on the cover of this
Prospectus.

    The weighted average portfolio maturity on December 31, 1995 was 33 days.


                       COMPARATIVE PERFORMANCE INFORMATION

    Advertisements and  communications may compare the Trust's  performance with
that of other mutual funds, as reported by Lipper Analytical  Services,  Inc. or
similar independent services or financial publications.  Such performance may be
categorized according to the Trust's asset size as determined by the independent
service.  From time to time,  the  performance  of the Trust may be  compared to
various  investment  indicies,  including the Dow Jones  Industrial  Average and
Standard & Poor's 500 Composite Stock Index. Quotations of historical yields are
not indicative of future dividend income, but are an indication of the return to
shareholders only for the limited historical period used. The Trust's yield will
depend on the  particular  investments  in its  portfolio,  its total  operating
expenses and other conditions. For further information,  including an example of
the yield calculation, see the Statement of Additional Information.

                            DESCRIPTION OF THE TRUST

    The Trust is a diversified open-end management investment company known as a
money  market  mutual  fund.  It is called a no-load fund because its shares are
sold without a sales charge.

                              INVESTMENT OBJECTIVE

    The  Trust's  investment  objective  is to seek as high a level  of  current
income from  short-term  investments as is consistent  with the  preservation of
capital and liquidity.

                               INVESTMENT POLICIES

    In order to achieve its objective of as high a level of current income as is
available from short term  investments and consistent  with the  preservation of
capital and liquidity,  the Trust will invest its assets in the following  money
market  instruments:  (1) Obligations  issued,  or guaranteed as to interest and
principal,   by  the   government   of  the  United  States  or  any  agency  or
instrumentality thereof (2) U.S. dollar denominated time deposits,  certificates
of deposit and bankers'  acceptances  of U.S.  banks and their London and Nassau
branches and of U.S. branches of foreign banks, provided that the bank has total
assets of one billion dollars; (3) Commercial paper of U.S. corporations,  rated
A1, A2 by Standard & Poor's  Corporation or P1, P2 by Moody's Investors Service,
Inc. or, if not rated,  of comparable  quality to those  securities in which the
Trust  may  invest;  (4)  Other  money  market  instruments;  or (5)  Repurchase
agreements under which the Trust may acquire an underlying debt instrument for a
relatively  short period  subject to the obligation of the seller to repurchase,
and of the Trust to resell, at a fixed price. The underlying security must be of
the same quality as those  described  herein,  although the usual practice is to
use U.S.  Government or government agency securities.  The Trust will enter into
repurchase  agreements only with commercial banks and dealers in U.S. government
securities.  Repurchase agreements when entered into with dealers, will be fully
collateralized  including the interest  earned thereon during the entire term of
the agreement.  If the  institution  defaults on the repurchase  agreement,  the
Trust will retain  possession  of the  underlying  securities.  In addition,  if
bankruptcy proceedings are commenced with respect to the seller,  realization on
the  collateral  by the Trust may be delayed or limited  and the Trust may incur
additional  costs.  In such case the Trust will be  subject to risks  associated
with changes in the market value of the collateral securities. The Trust intends
to limit  repurchase  agreements  to  institutions  believed  by LMC to  present
minimal  credit  risk.  The Trust  will not  enter  into  repurchase  agreements
maturing in more than seven days if the aggregate of such repurchase  agreements
would exceed 10% of the total assets of the Trust.  Securities in the Trust will
consist of


                                       3
<PAGE>

money market instruments that have been rated (or whose issuer's short-term debt
obligations are rated) in one of the two highest  categories  (i.e.  "A1/P1") by
both Standard & Poor's Corporation ("S&P") and Moody's Investors Services,  Inc.
("Moody's"),   two  nationally   recognized   statistical  rating  organizations
("NRSRO").

    The Trust may invest up to 5% of its assets in any single  "Tier 1" security
(other than U.S.  Government  securities),  measured at the time of acquisition;
however,  it may invest  more than 5% of its assets in a single  Tier 1 security
for no more than three  business  days. A "Tier 1" security is one that has been
rated (or the issuer of such security has been rated) by both S&P and Moody's in
the highest rating category or, if unrated, is of comparable quality. A security
rated in the highest  category by only one of these NRSROs is also  considered a
Tier 1 security.

    In addition, the Trust may invest not more than 5% of its assets in "Tier 2"
securities.  A Tier 2  security  is a  security  that is (a) rated in the second
highest  category  by either S&P or Moody's or (b) an unrated  security  that is
deemed to be of comparable  quality by LMC. The Trust may invest up to 1% of its
assets in any single Tier 2 security.

    The Trust may invest only in a money market  instrument that has a remaining
maturity of 13 months  (397 days) or less,  provided  that the  Trust's  average
weighted maturity is 90 days or less.

    The Trust is  expected  to have a high  portfolio  turnover  rate due to the
short  maturities of the  securities  held, but this should not affect net asset
value as brokerage  commissions  are usually not paid on the purchase or sale of
money market instruments.

                         FOREIGN BRANCHES OF U.S. BANKS

    The  obligations of London and Nassau  branches of U.S. banks may be general
obligations  of the parent bank in addition  to the  issuing  branch,  or may be
limited by the terms of a specific  obligation and by  governmental  regulation.
Payment of interest and principal upon these obligations may also be affected by
governmental action in the country of domicile of the branch (generally referred
to as  "sovereign  risk").  In  addition,  evidences  of  ownership of portfolio
securities  may be held outside of the U.S., and the Trust may be subject to the
risks  associated  with the  holding  of such  property  overseas.  Examples  of
governmental  actions  would be the  imposition of currency  controls,  interest
limitations, seizure of assets, or the declaration of a moratorium.  Obligations
of U.S. branches of foreign banks may be general  obligations of the parent bank
in addition to the issuing branch,  or may be limited by the terms of a specific
obligation and by Federal and state regulation as well as by governmental action
in the country in which the foreign  bank has its head  office.  While the Trust
will carefully  consider these factors on making such investments,  there are no
limitations on the percentage of the Trust's  portfolio which may be invested in
any one type of instrument.

    The Investment  Policies stated above are fundamental and may not be changed
without shareholder approval.  The Trust may not invest in securities other than
the  types  of  securities  listed  above  and  is  subject  to  other  specific
restrictions as detailed under "Investment Restrictions", below.

                             MANAGEMENT OF THE TRUST

    The  business  affairs of the Trust are managed  under the  direction of its
Board  of  Trustees.  There  are  currently  nine  trustees  (of  whom  six  are
non-affiliated  persons)  who meet  five  times  each  year.  The  Statement  of
Additional  Information contains additional  information  regarding the trustees
and officers of the Trust.

financial information for semiannual and annual reports,  preparing registration
statements,   calculating  net  asset  values,  shareholder  communications  and
supervision  of the custodian  transfer  agent and provides  facilities for such
services.  The Fund shall  reimburse  LMC for its actual cost in providing  such
services, facilities and expenses.

    LMC  and  LFD  are  wholly-owned  subsidiaries  of  Lexington  Global  Asset
Managers,  Inc., a Delaware corporation with offices at Park 80 West, Plaza Two,

    For the fiscal year ended  December 31,  1995,  the Trust paid LMC a monthly
management  fee at the annual rate of 1/2 of 1% of the average daily net assets.
For the year ended  December 31, 1995 the Trust paid net advisory fees to LMC of
$473,889.   See  "Investment  Adviser  and  Distributor"  in  the  Statement  of
Additional Information.

                             HOW TO PURCHASE SHARES

Initial Investments:  Minimum $1,000. By Wire: (1) Telephone the Trust toll free
1-800-526-0056  and  provide  the  account  registration,  address,  and  social
security or tax  identification  number, the amount being wired, the name of the
wiring bank, and the name and telephone  number of the person to be contacted in
connection with the order. You will then be provided with an account number. (2)
Instruct your bank to wire the specified  amount,  along with the account number
and  registration  to State Street Bank and Trust  Company,  (the "Agent") Attn:
Mutual Funds Dept., re: Lexington Money Market Trust, Account No. 99043713.  (3)
A completed New Account  Application  must then be forwarded to the Trust at the
address on the Application.

By Mail:  Send a check  payable to Lexington  Money Market  Trust,  along with a
completed  New  Account  Application,  to  the  Agent  at  the  address  on  the
Application.

Subsequent  Investments-By Wire: Instruct your bank to wire the specified amount
and appropriate information to State Street Bank and Trust Company (see "Initial
Investments - By Wire" - (2), above).

By Mail-Minimum $50: Send a check payable to Lexington Money Market Trust to the
Agent (see back cover of this prospectus for address), accompanied by either (a)
the  detachable  form which  accompanies  the  Agent's  confirmation  of a prior
transaction,  or (b) a letter  indicating  the dollar amount of the shares to be
purchased and identifying the Trust, the account number and registration.

Broker-Dealers: You may invest in shares of the Trust through broker-dealers who
are members of the National  Association of Securities Dealers,  Inc., and other
financial institutions and who have selling agreements with LFD. Banks and other
financial  institutions may be required to register as dealers pursuant to state
law.  Broker-dealers  and financial  institutions  who process such purchase and
sale  transactions  for their  customers may charge a transaction  fee for these
services.  The fee may be avoided by purchasing  shares directly from the Trust.

   
Purchase Price and Effective Date: Shares of the Trust are offered  continuously
at net asset value which will normally be constant at $1.00 per share. Net asset
value is determined  as of the close of the New York Stock  Exchange and on such
other times or days as there is a sufficient  degree of trading in the portfolio
securities of the Trust to materially  affect its net asset value per share. The
price at which a purchase is effected  is based on the next  calculation  of net
asset value per share after the order is placed.  Investments  for which  market
quotations are not readily available shall be valued by management in good faith
under the direction of the Board of Trustees. Trust assets are valued based upon
the  amortized  cost method.  No sales charge is imposed on purchases of shares.
There is no assurance  that the Trust will  maintain a net asset value per share
of $1.00. Orders will become effective when an investor's wire order or check is
converted  into  federal  funds  (monies  credited to a bank's  account with its
registered  Federal  Reserve  Bank).  If payment is transmitted by federal funds
wire, the order will become effective upon receipt. Payments transmitted by bank
wire may take longer to be converted  into federal funds.  Money  transmitted by
check will normally be considered to have been  converted  into federal funds on
the first business day following receipt by the Agent.

An Open Account: By investing in the Trust, a shareholder appoints the Agent, as
his agent,  to establish an Open Account to which all shares  purchased  will be
credited,  together with any dividends and capital gain distributions  which are
paid  in  additional  shares  (see  "Dividend,   Distribution  and  Reinvestment
Policy").  Share  certificates  will be  issued,  for  full  shares  only,  when
requested  in  writing.  Unless  payment  for  shares  is made by  certified  or
cashier's  check or federal funds wire,  certificates  will not be issued for 30
days. In order to facilitate redemptions and transfers,  most shareholders elect
not to receive certificates. After an Open Account is established,  payments can
be  provided  for by  "Lex-O-Matic"  or other  authorized  automatic  bank check
program  accounts  (checks  drawn  on  the  investor's  bank   periodically  for
investment in the Fund).

Automatic Investing Plan with  "Lex-O-Matic":  A shareholder may arrange to make
additional  purchases of shares  automatically  on a monthly or quarterly basis.
The  investments  of $50 or more  are  automatically  deducted  from a  checking
account  on or about  the 15th day of each  month.  The  institution  must be an
Automated  Clearing House (ACH) member.  Should an order to purchase shares of a
fund be cancelled  because your automated  transfer does not clear,  you will be
responsible  for any  resulting  loss  incurred  by that fund.  The  shareholder
reserves the right to  discontinue  the  Lex-O-Matic  program  provided  written
notice  is  given  ten days  prior to the  scheduled  investment  date.  Further
information  regarding  this service can be obtained  from  Lexington by calling
1-800-526-0056. On payroll deduction accounts administered by an employer and on
payments into  qualified  pension or profit  sharing plans and other  continuing
purchases programs, there are no minimum purchase requirements.

Terms of  Offering:  If an order to  purchase  shares is  cancelled  because the
investor's  check does not clear, the purchaser will be responsible for any loss
incurred by the Trust. To recover any such loss, the Trust reserves the right to
redeem  shares owned by the  purchaser,  seek  reimbursement  directly  from the
purchaser and may prohibit or restrict the purchaser in placing future orders in
any of the Lexington Funds. The Trust reserves the right to reject any order. An
order to purchase shares is not binding on the Trust until it has been confirmed
by the Agent.

Account  Statements:  The Agent will send  shareholders a  confirmation  of each
transaction,  indicating the date the purchase or redemption  was accepted,  the
number of shares purchased or redeemed, the price per share and the total amount
invested  or  redemption  proceeds.  A  statement  is also sent to  shareholders
quarterly,  or when a change in the  registration,  address,  or dividend option
occurs. A statement will be sent to shareholders  quarterly advising them of the
income   dividends  paid  in  additional   shares  in  the  preceding   quarter.
Shareholders are urged to retain their account statements for tax purposes.

                              HOW TO REDEEM SHARES

By  Telephone:  Shares may be  redeemed by  telephone.  Call the Trust toll free
1-800-526-0056.  A  redemption  authorization,  which  is  contained  in the New
Account Application,  or a separate authorization form, must be on file with LFD
before a shareholder  may redeem in this manner.  Shareholders  may elect on the
redemption  authorization  form to have  checks  in any  amount  of $200 or more
mailed either to the registered  address,  to the shareholder's bank account, or
to any other designated  person and a new form must be completed  whenever these
instructions are revised.

Shareholders  may request  that  redemption  proceeds of $1,000 or more be wired
directly to a commercial bank account.  The signatures on such a request must be
guaranteed,  unless an  authorization  for redemption by telephone form has been
previously filed with LFD. The Agent presently imposes a $5.00 wire charge.

By Check:  Shareholders  may effect  redemptions  by writing checks drawn on the
Trust,  payable  to the order of any  person in any amount of $100 or more up to
$500,000  at no charge.  Checks in amounts  over  $500,000  will not be honored.
Special forms and instructions may be obtained from the Trust or the Agent.

    Redemption  checks  should  not be used to close  your  account.  Redemption
checks are free, but the Agent will impose a fee (currently $15.00) for stopping
payment of a redemption check upon your request or if the Agent cannot honor the
redemption  check due to insufficient  funds,  uncollected  funds or other valid
reason.


                                       6
<PAGE>

    Procedures for  redemptions by telephone at no charge,  or check may only be
used for shares for which share  certificates have not been issued,  and may not
be used to redeem shares  purchased by check which have been on the books of the
Trust for less than 15 days.

By Mail: Send to the Agent (see back cover of this prospectus for address):  (1)
a written request for redemption, signed by each registered owner exactly as the
shares are registered  including the name of the Fund,  account number and exact
registration;  (2) share  certificates  for any shares to be redeemed  which are
held by the shareholder;  (3) signature guarantees,  when required;  and (4) the
additional  documents  required  for  redemptions  by  corporations,  executors,
administrators,  trustees  and  guardians.  Redemptions  by mail will not become
effective until all documents in proper form have been received by the Agent. If
a shareholder has any questions regarding the requirements for redeeming shares,
he  should  call the  Trust  prior to  submitting  a  redemption  request.  If a
redemption  request is sent to the Trust in New Jersey,  it will be forwarded to
the Agent and the effective date of redemption  will be the date received by the
Agent.

    Checks for  redemption  proceeds will be mailed within three  business days,
but will not be mailed until all checks in payment for the shares to be redeemed
have been  cleared.  Shareholders  who redeem all of their shares will receive a
check  representing the value of the shares redeemed plus the accrued  dividends
through the date of the redemption.  Where shareholders redeem only a portion of
their shares,  all dividends declared but unpaid will be distributed on the next
dividend payment date.

Signature  Guarantee:  Signature  guarantees are required in connection with (a)
redemptions  by mail  involving  $25,000 or more;  (b) all  redemptions by mail,
regardless of the amount  involved,  when the proceeds are to be paid to someone
other than the registered owner(s);  (c) authorizations to effect redemptions by
telephone  or check;  (d) changes in  instructions  as to where the  proceeds of
redemptions are to be sent; and, (e) share transfer requests.

    The Agent requires that the guarantor be either a commercial bank which is a
member of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation,  a trust company, a savings
and loan  association,  a  savings  bank,  a credit  union,  a member  firm of a
domestic stock exchange,  or a foreign branch of any of the foregoing.  A notary
public is not an acceptable guarantor.

    With  respect  to  redemption  requests  submitted  by mail,  the  signature
guarantees must appear either: (a) on the written request for redemption; (b) on
a separate  instrument of assignment  ("stock  power") which should  specify the
total number of shares to be redeemed; or (c) on all share certificates tendered
for redemption and, if shares held by the Agent are also being redeemed,  on the
letter or stock power.

Redemption  Price: The redemption price will be the net asset value per share of
the Trust next determined after receipt by the Agent of a redemption  request in
proper  form  (see  "Determination  of Net  Asset  Value"  in the  Statement  of
Additional  Information).  The right of redemption  may be suspended (a) for any
period during which the New York Stock  Exchange is closed or the Securities and
Exchange   Commission  ("SEC")  determines  that  trading  on  the  Exchange  is
restricted,  (b) when there is an emergency as determined by the SEC as a result
of which it is not reasonably practicable for the Trust to dispose of securities
owned by it or to determine fairly the value of its net assets,  or (c) for such
other periods as the SEC may by order permit for the protection of  shareholders
of the  Trust.  Due to the  proportionately  high  cost of  maintaining  smaller
accounts, the Trust reserves the right to redeem all shares in an account with a
value of less than $500 (except  retirement plan accounts) and mail the proceeds
to the shareholder.  Shareholders  will be notified before these redemptions are
to be made and will have 30 days to make an additional investment to bring their
accounts up to the required minimum.

                              SHAREHOLDER SERVICES

Transfer:  Shares of the Trust may be  transferred to another owner. A signature
guarantee of the  registered  owner is required on the letter of  instruction or
accompanying stock power.

Systematic  Withdrawal  Plan:  Shareholders  may elect to withdraw cash in fixed
amounts from their  accounts at regular  intervals.  The minimum  investment  to
establish a  Systematic  Withdrawal  Plan is $10,000.  If the proceeds are to be
mailed to someone  other than the  registered  owner,  a signature  guarantee is
required.

Group Sub-Accounting:  To minimize  recordkeeping by fiduciaries,  corporations,
and certain other investors, the minimum initial investment may be waived.

                               EXCHANGE PRIVILEGE

    Shares of the Trust may be exchanged for shares of the  following  Lexington
Funds on the basis of relative net asset value per share, next determined at the
time of the  exchange.  In the event  shares of one or more of these Funds being
exchanged by a single investor have a value in excess of $500,000, the shares of
the Fund will not be  purchased  until  the third  business  day  following  the
redemption of the shares being  exchanged in order to enable the redeeming  Fund
to utilize normal securities  settlement procedures in transferring the proceeds
of the  redemption  to the Fund.  Exchanges  may not be made until all checks in
payment for the shares to be exchanged have been cleared.

    Lexington Funds currently available for exchange are:

    Shareholders  in any of these funds may exchange all or part of their shares
for  shares  of one or  more  of the  other  funds,  subject  to the  conditions
described herein.  The Exchange  Privilege enables a shareholder in any of these
funds to acquire shares in a fund with a different investment objective when the
shareholder  believes that a shift between  funds is an  appropriate  investment
decision.  Shareholders  contemplating  an exchange should obtain and review the
prospectus of the fund to be acquired.  If an exchange  involves  investing in a
Lexington  Fund not already owned and a new account has to be  established,  the
dollar amount  exchanged  must meet the minimum  initial  investment of the Fund
being  purchased.  If,  however,  an  account  already  exists in the Fund being
bought, there is a $500 minimum exchange required. Shareholders must provide the
account number of the existing account. Any exchange between mutual funds is, in
effect,  a  redemption  of shares in one Fund and a purchase  in the other Fund.
Shareholders should consider the possible tax effects of an exchange.

Telephone Exchange  Provisions-Exchange  instructions may be given in writing or
by telephone.  Telephone exchanges may only be made if a Telephone Authorization
form has been previously  executed and filed with LFD.  Telephone  exchanges are
permitted  only  after a  minimum  of 7 days  have  elapsed  from  the date of a
previous exchange. Exchanges may not be made until all checks in payment for the
shares to be exchanged have been cleared.  Telephonic exchanges can only involve
shares  held on deposit at the Agent;  shares  held in  certificate  form by the
shareholder  cannot  be  included.  However,  outstanding  certificates  can  be
returned  to  the  Agent  and  qualify  for  these  services.  Any  new  account
established with the same  registration will also have the privilege of exchange
by  telephone in the  Lexington  Funds.  All  accounts  involved in a telephonic
exchange must have the same registration and dividend option as the account from
which the shares were  transferred  and will also have the privilege of exchange
by telephone in the Lexington Funds in which these services are available.

    By checking  the box on the New Account  Application  authorizing  telephone
exchange  services,  a shareholder  constitutes and appoints LFD as the true and
lawful   attorney  to  surrender   for   redemption  or  exchange  any  and  all
non-certificated  shares held by the



                                       8
<PAGE>



Agent in  account(s)  designated,  or in any other  account  with the  Lexington
Funds, present or future,  which has the identical  registration with full power
of  substitution  in the  premises,  authorizes  and directs LFD to act upon any
instruction  from any person by telephone  for exchange of shares held in any of
these  accounts,  to  purchase  shares  of any  other  Lexington  Fund  that  is
available,  provided the  registration  and mailing  address of the shares to be
purchased are identical to the  registration of the shares being  redeemed,  and
agrees that neither LFD, the Agent, nor the Fund(s) will be liable for any loss,
expense or cost arising out of any  requests  effected in  accordance  with this
authorization  which would  include  requests  effected by  imposters or persons
otherwise  unauthorized to act on behalf of the account.  LFD, the Agent and the
Fund,   will  employ   reasonable   procedures  to  confirm  that   instructions
communicated  by  telephone  are  genuine  and if they do not employ  reasonable
procedures  they may be liable for any losses due to  unauthorized or fraudulent
instructions.  The following identification  procedures may include, but are not
limited to, the following:  account number,  registration and address,  taxpayer
identification  number  and other  information  particular  to the  account.  In
addition,  all exchange transactions will take place on recorded telephone lines
and each  transaction will be confirmed in writing by the Fund. LFD reserves the
right to cease to act as Agent subject to the above appointment upon thirty (30)
days' written notice to the address of record.  If the  shareholder is an entity
other than an  individual,  such entity may be required to certify  that certain
persons have been duly elected and are now legally  holding the titles given and
that the said  corporation,  trust,  unincorporated  association,  etc.  is duly
organized  and  existing  and  has  power  to  take  action  called  for by this
continuing Authorization.

    Exchange authorization forms, telephone authorization forms and prospectuses
of the other funds may be obtained from LMC.

    The  Distributor  has made  arrangements  with  certain  dealers  to  accept
instructions  by telephone to exchange  shares of the Trust for shares of one of
the other  Lexington  funds at net asset value as  described  above.  Under this
procedure,  the dealer must agree to indemnify LFD and the Lexington  funds from
any loss or liability that any of them might incur as a result of the acceptance
of such telephone exchange orders. A properly signed Exchange Authorization must
be received by the Distributor within five days of the exchange request. In each
such exchange, the registration of the shares of the Fund being acquired must be
identical to the  registration  of the shares of the Fund  exchanged.  Shares in
certificate  form are not eligible  for this type of exchange.  LFD reserves the
right to reject any telephone exchange request. Any telephone exchange orders so
rejected may be processed by mail.

    A capital gain or loss for Federal  income tax purposes may be realized upon
the exchange,  depending  upon the cost or other basis of the shares  exchanged.
This exchange  offer is available  only in states where shares of the Fund being
acquired  may legally be sold and may be modified or  terminated  at any time by
the  Trust.  Broker  dealers  who  process  exchange  orders  on behalf of their
customers may charge a fee for their services. Such fee may be avoided by making
requests for exchange directly to the Trust or Agent.

                         TAX-SHELTERED RETIREMENT PLANS

    The Trust offers a Prototype  Pension and Profit  Sharing Plan,  including a
Keogh Plan, IRA's, SEP-lRA's and IRA Rollover Accounts,  401(k) Salary Reduction
Plans,  Section  457  Deferred  Compensation  Plan and 403 (b) (7)  Plans.  Plan
support services are available  through the Shareholder  Services  Department of
LMC at 1-800-526-0056. (See "Tax-Sheltered Retirement Plans" in the Statement of
Additional Information.)

                 DIVIDEND, DISTRIBUTION AND REINVESTMENT POLICY

    The Trust's policy is to declare dividends from net investment income daily,
reinvest them daily and distribute  them monthly.  Dividends are  distributed in
the form of  additional  full and  fractional  shares at net asset value  unless
specific instructions otherwise are received by the Dividend Disbursing Agent.

    The net  income of the Trust  (from  the time of the  immediately  preceding
determination  thereof)  consists  of (i) all  interest  income  accrued  on the
portfolio  assets of the Trust,  (ii) plus or minus all realized and  unrealized
gains and losses on portfolio assets of the Trust and (iii) less all expenses of
the Trust.  Interest income includes discounts earned (including  original issue
and market discount) on discount paper accrued ratably to the date of maturity.

                                   TAX MATTERS

    The Trust intends to qualify as a regulated investment company by satisfying
the  requirements  under  Subchapter M of the



                                       9
<PAGE>



Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"),  including  requirements
with respect to diversification of assets, distribution of income and sources of
income.  It is the  Trust's  policy to  distribute  to  shareholders  all of its
investment  income  (net of  expenses)  and any  capital  gains  (net of capital
losses) so that,  in addition to  satisfying  the  distribution  requirement  of
Subchapter  M, the Trust will not be  subject  to  federal  income tax or the 4%
excise tax.

    Distributions  by the  Trust  of its  net  investment  income  and  any  net
short-term  capital gain are taxable to shareholders as ordinary  income.  These
distributions  are treated as dividends  for federal  income tax purposes but do
not qualify for the 70% dividends-received deduction for corporate shareholders.
The Trust is managed  so that it will not have any  long-term  capital  gains or
losses.

    Distributions to shareholders will be treated in the same manner for federal
income tax purposes whether received in cash or reinvested in additional  shares
of the Trust. In general,  distributions  by the Trust are taken into account by
the  shareholders  in  the  year  in  which  they  are  made.  However,  certain
distributions  made  during  January  will be treated as having been paid by the
Trust and received by the  shareholders  on December 31 of the preceding year. A
statement setting forth the federal income tax status of all distributions  made
or deemed made during the year will be sent to  shareholders  promptly after the
end of each year.  Shareholders purchasing shares of the Trust just prior to the
ex-dividend  date will be taxed on the entire  amount of the dividend  received,
even though the net asset value per share on the date of such purchase reflected
the amount of such dividend.

    All or a portion of any loss realized upon a taxable  disposition  of shares
of the Fund may be disallowed if other shares of the Trust are purchased  within
30 days before or after such disposition.

    Under the back-up withholding rules of the Code, certain shareholders may be
subject to 31%  withholding of federal income tax on ordinary  income  dividends
paid by the Trust.  In order to avoid this back-up  withholding,  a  shareholder
must provide the Trust with a correct taxpayer  identification number (which for
most  individuals  is their  Social  Security  number) or  certify  that it is a
corporation or otherwise exempt from or not subject to back-up withholding.  The
new account  application  included with this Prospectus provides for shareholder
compliance with these certification requirements.

    The foregoing  discussion of federal income tax consequences is based on tax
laws and regulations in effect on the date of this Prospectus, and is subject to
change by legislative or administrative  action. As the foregoing  discussion is
for general  information only, a prospective  shareholder should also review the
more detailed  discussion of federal income tax  considerations  relevant to the
Trust that is contained in the Statement of Additional Information. In addition,
each prospective  shareholder  should consult with his own tax adviser as to the
tax consequences of investments in the Trust, including the application of state
and local  taxes  which may differ  from the  federal  income  tax  consequences
described above.

            CUSTODIAN, TRANSFER AGENT, AND DIVIDEND DISBURSING AGENT

    Chase Manhattan Bank N.A.,  1211 Avenue of the Americas,  New York, New York
10022, has been retained to act as the Custodian for the Trust's investments and
assets.  State  Street Bank and Trust  Company,  225  Franklin  Street,  Boston,
Massachusetts 02110, is the transfer agent and dividend disbursing agent for the
Trust.  Neither  Chase  Manhattan  Bank,  N.A.  nor State  Street Bank and Trust
Company have any part in determining the investment  policies of the Trust or in
determining which portfolio  securities are to be purchased or sold by the Trust
or in the declaration of dividends and distributions.


                        COUNSEL AND INDEPENDENT AUDITORS

    Kramer,  Levin,  Naftalis,  Nessen,  Kamin & Frankel,  919 Third Avenue, New
York,  New York 10022,  will pass upon legal matters for the Trust in connection
with the shares offered by this Prospectus.

    KPMG Peat Marwick LLP, 345 Park Avenue,  New York, New York 10154,  has been
selected  as  independent  auditors  for the Trust for the  fiscal  year  ending
December 31,1996.

                                OTHER INFORMATION

    The Trust is a trust  fund of the type  commonly  known as a  "Massachusetts
business trust".  It is a diversified  open-end  management  investment  company
registered  under  the  Investment  Company  Act  of  1940,   established  under
Massachusetts law by


                                       10
<PAGE>



Declaration  of Trust dated October 28, 1976.  The  Declaration of Trust permits
the Trustees to issue an  unlimited  number of full and  fractional  shares of a
single class.  Each share represents an equal  proportionate  interest with each
other share. In the event of liquidation of the Trust, shareholders are entitled
to share pro rata in the net assets  available for distribution to shareholders.
Shares have no preemptive or  conversion  rights.  Shares are fully paid and non
assessable.  Shareholders  are  entitled  to one vote for each share held in the
election of Trustees and on other matters submitted to the vote of shareholders.
Voting  rights are not  cumulative,  so that the holders of more than 50% of the
shares  voting in the  election of Trustees  can, if they choose to do so, elect
all the Trustees.  No material amendment may be made to the Declaration of Trust
without the affirmative vote of a majority of the outstanding shares.

    Shareholder and Trustee liability:  Under Massachusetts law, shareholders of
a  Massachusetts  business  trust  may,  under  certain  circumstances,  be held
personally  liable as partners for the obligations of the Trust. The Declaration
of Trust  contains an express  disclaimer of  shareholder  liability for acts or
obligations of the Trust and requires that notice of such disclaimer be given in
each agreement,  obligation, or instrument entered into or executed by the Trust
or the Trustees.  The Declaration of Trust provides for  indemnification  out of
the  Trust  property  for  any  shareholders  held  personally  liable  for  the
obligations of the Trust, and also 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 on account of  shareholder  liability is
limited to  circumstances  in which the Trust itself would be unable to meet its
obligations.  The  Declaration of Trust further  provides that the Trustees will
not be liable for errors of judgment or mistakes of fact or law;  but nothing in
the  Declaration of Trust  protects a Trustee  against any liability to which he
would  otherwise be subject by reason of wilful  misfeasance,  bad faith,  gross
negligence,  or reckless  disregard of the duties involved in the conduct of his
office.

    The Trust was  originally  organized  under the name "Banner  Redi-Resources
Trust" and assumed its present name in January 1979.

    As a general  matter,  the Trust will not hold  annual or other  meetings of
shareholders.  Instead  meetings of shareholders  will be held only: (i) for the
election  of  trustees;  (2) for the  approval  of any new or  amended  advisory
agreement; (3) ratification of the selection of the independent auditors; or (4)
approval of the  distribution  agreement.  The  Trustees  are required to call a
meeting  for the  purpose of  considering  the  removal  of a person  serving as
trustee, if requested in writing to do so by the holders of not less than 10% of
the  outstanding  shares of other voting  interests  of the Trust.  The Trust is
required to assist in shareholder communications.

    The Code of Ethics adopted by each of the Adviser and the Fund prohibits all
affiliated  personnel  from  engaging in personal  investment  activities  which
compete  with or  attempt to take  advantage  of the  Fund's  planned  portfolio
transactions. The objective of each Code of Ethics is that the operations of the
Adviser  and  Fund be  carried  out  for the  exclusive  benefit  of the  Fund's
shareholders.  All organizations  maintain careful monitoring of compliance with
the Code of Ethics.

    A Registration  Statement (herein called the "Registration  Statement"),  of
which this Prospectus is a part, has been filed with the SEC,  Washington,  D.C.
under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.

    No  person  has  been  authorized  to give  any  information  or to make any
representations other than those contained in this Prospectus and in the Trust's
official sales  literature in connection  with the offer of the Trust's  shares,
and, if given or made,  such other  information or  representations  must not be
relied upon as having been  authorized by the Trust.  This  Prospectus  does not
constitute  an offer in any  State in  which,  or to any  person  to whom,  such
offering may not lawfully be made. A "Statement of Additional  Information",  to
which  reference is made in this  Prospectus,  provides a further  discussion of
certain  areas in the  Prospectus  and other matters which may be of interest to
some investors and is available by request without cost as indicated herein. The
Prospectus and the Statement of Additional  Information omit certain information
contained in the Registration  Statement, to which reference is made, filed with
the  Commission.  Items which are thus  omitted,  including  contracts and other
documents referred to or summarized herein and therein, may be obtained from the
Commission upon payment of the prescribed fees.

                                INVESTMENT POLICY

    In order to  achieve  its  objective  of  seeking as high a level of current
income as is  available  from short term  investments  and  consistent  with the
preservation  of capital and liquidity,  the Trust will invest its assets in the
following money market instruments:  (l) Obligations issued, or guaranteed as to
interest and principal,  by the Government of the United States or any agency or
instrumentality thereof; (2) U.S. dollar denominated time deposits, certificates
of deposit and bankers'  acceptances  of U.S.  banks and their London and Nassau
branches and of U.S. branches of foreign banks, provided that the bank has total
assets of one billion dollars; (3) Commercial paper of U.S. corporations,  rated
Al, A2 by Standard & Poor's  Corporation or Pl, P2 by Moody's Investors Service,
Inc. or, if not rated, of such issuers having outstanding debt rated A or better
by either of such services,  or debt obligations of such issuers maturing in two
years or less and rated A or better;  (4) Repurchase  agreements under which the
Trust may acquire an underlying  debt  instrument for a relatively  short period
subject  to the  obligation  of the  seller to  repurchase,  and of the Trust to
resell, at a fixed price. The underlying security must be of the same quality as
those described herein, although the usual practice is to use U.S. Government or
government agency  securities.  The Trust will enter into repurchase  agreements
only with commercial banks and dealers in U.S. Government securities. Repurchase
agreements  when  entered  into  with  dealers,  will  be  fully  collateralized
including the interest  earned  thereon during the entire term of the agreement.
If the institution defaults on the repurchase  agreement,  the Trust will retain
possession of the underlying securities.  In addition, if bankruptcy proceedings
are commenced  with respect to the seller,  realization on the collateral by the
Trust may be delayed or limited  and the Trust may incur  additional  costs.  In
such case the Trust  will be  subject to risks  associated  with  changes in the
market value of the collateral securities. The Trust intends to limit repurchase
agreements to  institutions  believed by LMC to present minimal credit risk. The
Trust will not enter into repurchase agreements maturing in more than seven days
if the  aggregate of such  repurchase  agreements  would exceed 10% of the total
assets of the Trust; or (5) Other money market instruments.

Foreign Branches of U.S. Banks

    The  obligations of London and Nassau  branches of U.S. banks may be general
obligations  of the parent bank in addition  to the  issuing  branch,  or may be
limited by the terms of a specific  obligation and by  governmental  regulation.
Payment of interest and principal upon these obligations may also be affected by
governmental action in the country of domicile of the branch (generally referred
to as  "sovereign  risk").  In  addition,  evidences  of  ownership of portfolio
securities  may be held outside of the U.S., and the Trust may be subject to the
risks  associated  with the  holding  of such  property  overseas.  Examples  of
governmental  actions  would be the  imposition of currency  controls,  interest
limitations, seizure of assets, or the declaration of a moratorium.  Obligations
of U.S. branches of foreign banks may be general  obligations of the parent bank
in addition to the issuing branch,  or may be limited by the terms of a specific
obligation and by Federal and state regulation as well as by governmental action
in the country in which the foreign  bank has its head  office.  While the Trust
will carefully  consider these factors on making such investments,  there are no
limitations on the percentage of the Trust's  portfolio which may be invested in
any one type of instrument.

    The Investment  Policies stated above are fundamental and may not be changed
without shareholder approval.  The Trust may not invest in securities other than
the  types  of  securities  listed  above  and  is  subject  to  other  specific
restrictions as detailed under "Investment Restrictions", below.

                             INVESTMENT RESTRICTIONS

    The  following  investment  restrictions  adopted  by the  Trust  may not be
changed  without the affirmative  vote of a majority  (defined as the lesser of:
67% of the shares  represented at a meeting at which 50% of  outstanding  shares
are present,  or 50% of outstanding shares) of its outstanding shares. The Trust
may not: (l)  purchase any  securities  other than money market  instruments  or
other debt  securities  maturing  within two years of the date of purchase;  (2)
borrow an amount  which is in excess of  one-third  of its total assets taken at
market  value  (including  the amount  borrowed);  and then only from banks as a
temporary  measure for extraordinary or emergency  purposes.  The Trust will not
borrow to  increase  income but only to meet  redemption  requests  which  might
otherwise require undue disposition of portfolio securities.  The Trust will not
invest while it has borrowings  outstanding;  (3) pledge its assets except in an
amount up to 15% of the value of its total assets taken at market value in order
to  secure  borrowings  made in  accordance  with  number  (2)  above;  (4) sell
securities  short  unless at all times while a short  position is open the Trust
maintains  a long  position  in the same  security  in an amount at least  equal
thereto;  (5) write or purchase put or call options;  (6) purchase securities on
margin  except the Trust may obtain such short term  credit as may be  necessary
for the  clearance of  purchases  and sales of  portfolio  securities;  (7) make
investments  for the purpose of exercising  control or management;  (8) purchase
securities of other  investment  companies,  except in connection with a merger,
consolidation,  acquisition or reorganization;  (9) make loans to other persons,
provided  that the Trust may  purchase  money  market  securities  or enter into
repurchase  agreements  and  lend  securities  owned  or held by it as  provided
herein;  (10)  lend its  portfolio  securities,


                                       2
<PAGE>

except in conformity with the guidelines set forth below;  (11) concentrate more
than  25% of its  total  assets,  taken  at  market  value  at the  time of such
investment,  in any one industry,  except U.S.  Government  and U.S.  Government
agency securities and U.S. bank obligations;  (12) purchase any securities other
than U.S. Government or U.S. Government agency securities,  if immediately after
such  purchase  more than 5% of its total assets would be invested in securities
of any one issuer for more than three  business  days;  (taken at market  value)
(13) purchase or hold real estate,  commodities or commodity  contracts;  ( 14 )
invest more than 5% of its total  assets  (taken at market  value) in issues for
which  no  readily   available  market  exists  or  with  legal  or  contractual
restrictions  on  resale  except  for  repurchase  agreements;  (15)  act  as an
underwriter  (except  as it may be  deemed  such as to the  sale  of  restricted
securities); or (16) enter into reverse repurchase agreements.

    Although the Trust has the right to pledge or  hypothecate  in excess of 10%
of its assets at market value, it will not do so in order to comply with certain
state  statutes.  Also,  the Trust has  undertaken  not in invest in real estate
limited  partnership  interests,   oil,  gas  or  mineral  leases,  as  well  as
exploration or development programs. The Trust will not purchase warrants except
in units with other securities in original issuance thereof or attached to other
securities,  if at the time of  purchase,  the  Trust's  investment  in warrants
valued at the lower of cost or  market,  would  exceed 5% of the  Trust's  total
assets.  Warrants  which  are not  listed  on the New  York  or  American  Stock
Exchanges  shall not exceed 2% of the Trust's  net  assets.  Shares of the Trust
will not be issued for consideration other than cash.

    Lending of portfolio securities:  As stated in number (10) above, subject to
guidelines  established  by the  Trustees  and by the  Securities  and  Exchange
Commission,  the Trust,  from  time-to-time,  may lend  portfolio  securities to
brokers, dealers,  corporations or financial institutions and receive collateral
which will be maintained at all times in an amount equal to at least 100% of the
current market value of the loaned  securities.  Such  collateral will be either
cash or fully  negotiable  U. S.  Treasury  or  agency  issues.  If  cash,  such
collateral will be invested in short term securities, the income from which will
increase the return to the Trust.  However, a portion of such incremental return
may be shared with the borrower. If securities,  the usual procedure will be for
the  borrower  to pay a fixed  fee to the  Trust  for  such  time as the loan is
outstanding.  The Trust  will  retain  substantially  all  rights of  beneficial
ownership as to the loaned portfolio  securities including rights to interest or
other distributions and will have the right to regain record ownership of loaned
securities  in order to  exercise  such  beneficial  rights.  Such loans will be
terminable  at  any  time.  The  Trust  may  pay  reasonable   fees  to  persons
unaffiliated with it in connection with the arranging of such loans.

                                YIELD CALCULATION

    The Trust provides current yield and effective yield  quotations,  which are
calculated in accordance  with the  regulations  of the  Securities and Exchange
Commission,  based upon changes in account value during a recent  seven-day base
period.

    Current yield  quotations are computed by  annualizing  (on a 365-day basis)
the "base period  return".  The "base period  return" is computed by determining
the net change exclusive of capital changes in the value of the account, divided
by the value of the account at the beginning of the base period. Effective yield
is  computed by  compounding  the "base  period  return".  Based upon  dividends
actually credited to the shareholders' accounts (i.e.: based upon net investment
income),  the current  yield to an  investor in the Trust  during the last seven
calendar  days of its fiscal year ended  December 31, 1995 was at an annual rate
of 4.79% and the  effective  yield was at an annual  rate of 4.91%.  The average
weighted  maturity of investments  was 33 days. The current and effective  yield
are affected by market conditions,  portfolio quality,  portfolio maturity, type
of instruments held and operating  expenses.  The Trust attempts to keep its net
asset  value  per  share at  $1.00,  but  attainment  of this  objective  is not
guaranteed.  This Statement of Additional  Information  may be in use for a full
year and it can be expected that these yields will fluctuate  substantially from
the example shown above.

    The current and effective yield figures are not a  representation  of future
yield as the Trust's net income and  expenses  will vary based on many  factors,
including  changes in short term money market yields  generally and the types of
instruments  in the  Trust's  portfolio.  The  stated  yield of the Trust may be
useful  in  reviewing  the  Trust's  performance  and in  providing  a basis for
comparison with other investment alternatives. However, unlike bank deposits and
other  investments  which pay fixed yields for stated periods of time, the yield
of the Trust fluctuates.  In addition,  other investment companies may calculate
yield on a different  basis and may  purchase  securities  for their  portfolios
which  have  different  qualities  and  maturities  than  those  of the  Trust's
portfolio securities.

                        DETERMINATION OF NET ASSET VALUE

    The net asset value of the Trust is determined as of the close of trading on
the New York Stock  Exchange  each day the  Exchange is open for business and at
such other times and/or such other days as there is sufficient  trading in money
market  instruments to affect  materially the Trust's net asset value per share.
Substantially all of the Trust's net income


                                       3
<PAGE>

calculated  from the  immediately  preceding  determination  of net  income,  is
declared  daily as  dividends  (see  "Dividend,  Distribution  and  Reinvestment
Policy").

    For the  purpose  of  determining  the price at which  shares are issued and
redeemed,  the net asset  value per share is  calculated  immediately  after the
daily dividend declaration by: (a) valuing all securities and instruments as set
forth  below;  (b)  deducting  the Trust's  liabilities;  and (c)  dividing  the
resulting amount by the number of shares outstanding.  As discussed below, it is
the intention of the Trust to maintain a net asset value per share of $1.00. The
Trust's  portfolio  instruments  are valued on the basis of amortized cost. This
involves  valuing an instrument at its cost and  thereafter  assuming a constant
amortization to maturity of any discount or premium, regardless of the impact of
fluctuating  interest  rates on the  market  value of the  security.  While this
method  provides  certainty in valuation,  it may result in periods during which
the value,  as determined  by amortized  cost, is higher or lower than the price
the Trust would receive if it sold its  portfolio.  During  periods of declining
interest  rates,  the daily yield on shares of the Trust  computed as  described
above  may be  higher  than a like  computation  made by a fund  with  identical
investments  utilizing  a method of  valuation  based  upon  market  prices  and
estimates of market prices for all its portfolio  instruments.  Thus, if the use
of amortized cost by the Trust results in a lower aggregate portfolio value on a
particular  day, a  prospective  investor in the Trust would be able to obtain a
somewhat  higher yield than would result from an investment in a fund  utilizing
solely  market  values,  and existing  investors in the Trust would receive less
investment  income.  The  converse  would  apply in a period of rising  interest
rates.

    The Trust's use of  amortized  cost and the  maintenance  of the Trust's per
share  net  value  at  $1.00  is based on its  election  to  operate  under  the
provisions of Rule 2a-7 under the Investment Company Act of 1940. As a condition
of operating under that rule, the Trust must maintain a dollar-weighted  average
portfolio  maturity  of 90  days  or  less,  purchase  only  instruments  having
remaining  maturities of thirteen  months or less, and invest only in securities
which are  determined by the Board of Trustees to present  minimal  credit risks
and which are of high  quality as  required  by the Rule,  or in the case of any
instrument not so rated, considered by the Board of Trustees to be of comparable
quality.  Securities in the Trust will consist of money market  instruments that
have been rated (or whose issuer's short-term debt obligations are rated) in one
of the  two  highest  categories  (i.e.  "Al/Pl")  by  both  Standard  &  Poor's
Corporation  ("S&P") and  Moody's  Investors  Services,  Inc.  ("Moody's"),  two
nationally recognized statistical rating organizations ("NRSRO").

    The Trust may invest up to 5% of its assets in any single  "Tier I" security
(other than U.S.  Government  securities),  measured at the time of acquisition;
however,  it may invest  more than 5% of its assets in a single  Tier 1 security
for no more than three  business  days. A "Tier I" security is one that has been
rated (or the issuer of such security has been rated) by both S&P and Moody's in
the highest rating category or, if unrated, is of comparable quality. A security
rated in the highest  category by only one of these NRSROs is also  considered a
Tier 1 security.

    In addition, the Trust may invest not more than 5% of its assets in "Tier 2"
securities.  A Tier 2  security  is a  security  that is (a) rated in the second
highest  category  by either S&P or Moody's or (b) an unrated  security  that is
deemed to be of comparable quality by the Trust's investment advisor.  The Trust
may invest up to 1% of its assets in any single Tier 2 security.

    The Trust may invest only in a money market  instrument that has a remaining
maturity of 13 months  (397 days) or less,  provided  that the  Trust's  average
weighted maturity is 90 days or less.

    The Board of Trustees has also agreed, as a particular responsibility within
the  overall  duty of care owed to its  shareholders,  to  establish  procedures
reasonably  designed,  taking into account  current  market  conditions  and the
Trust's  investment  objective,  to  stabilize  the net asset value per share as
computed for the purposes of sales and  redemptions at $1.00.  These  procedures
include periodic review, as the Board deems appropriate and at such intervals as
are  reasonable  in light of  current  market  conditions,  of the  relationship
between the amortized cost value per share and a net asset value per share based
upon available  indications  of market value.  In such review,  investments  for
which market  quotations are readily available are valued at the most recent bid
price or quoted  yield  equivalent  for such  securities  or for  securities  of
comparable maturity,  quality and type as obtained from one or more of the major
market makers for the securities to be valued.  Other investments and assets are
valued at fair value, as determined in good faith by the Board of Trustees.

                         TAX-SHELTERED RETIREMENT PLANS

    The Trust makes available a variety of Prototype  Pension and Profit Sharing
Plans  including  a 401(k)  Salary  Reduction  Plan and a 403(b)(7)  Plan.  Plan
services are available by contacting the Shareholder  Services Department of LMC
at 1-800-526-0056.

INDIVIDUAL  RETIREMENT  ACCOUNT  (IRA):  Individuals  may  make  tax  deductible
contributions  to their own Individual  Retirement  Accounts  established  under
Section 408 of the Internal Revenue Code (the "Code").


                                       4
<PAGE>

    Married  investors  filing  a joint  return  neither  of  whom is an  active
participant in an employer sponsored retirement plan, or who have adjusted gross
income of $40,000 or less ($25,000 or less for single taxpayers) may continue to
make a $2,000 ($2,250 for spousal IRAs) annual deductible IRA contribution.  For
adjusted  gross income above  $40,000  ($25,000 for single  taxpayers),  the IRA
deduction  limit is  generally  phased  out  ratably  over the next  $10,000  of
adjusted  gross  income,  subject  to a minimum  $200  deductible  contribution.
Investors  who are  not  able to  deduct  a full  $2,000  ($2,250  spousal)  IRA
contribution because of the limitations may make a nondeductible contribution to
their IRA to the extent a deductible contribution is not allowed. Federal income
tax on  accumulations  earned on  nondeductible  contributions is deferred until
such time as these amounts are deemed distributed to an investor.  Rollovers are
also permitted under the Plan. The disclosure statement required by the Internal
Revenue Service ("IRS") is provided by the Trust.

    The minimum initial investment to establish a tax-sheltered plan through the
Trust is $250 for retirement plan accounts.  Subsequent  investments are subject
to a minimum of $50 for each account.

SELF-EMPLOYED  RETIREMENT PLAN (HR-10):  Self-employed  individuals may make tax
deductible  contributions to a prototype  defined  contribution  pension plan or
profit sharing plan. There are,  however,  a number of special rules which apply
when  self-employed  individuals  participate in such plans.  Currently purchase
payments under a  self-employed  plan are  deductible  only to the extent of the
lesser of (i) $30,000 or (ii) 25% of the  individuals  earned  annual income (as
defined in the Code) and in applying these limitations not more than $200,000 of
"earned income" may be taken into account.

CORPORATE  PENSION  AND  PROFIT  SHARING  PLANS:  The Trust  makes  available  a
Prototype Defined Contribution Pension Plan and a Prototype Profit Sharing Plan.

    All purchases  and  redemptions  of Trust shares  pursuant to any one of the
Trust's  tax  sheltered  plans  must  be  carried  out in  accordance  with  the
provisions  of the plan.  Accordingly,  all plan  documents  should be  reviewed
carefully before adopting or enrolling in the plan.  Investors should especially
note that a penalty  tax of 10% may be imposed  by the IRS on early  withdrawals
under  corporate,  Keogh  or IRA  plans.  It is  recommended  by the IRS that an
investor  consult a tax adviser  before  investing  in the Trust  through any of
these plans. An investor  participating  in any of the Trust's special plans has
no obligation to continue to invest in the Trust and may terminate the plan with
the Trust at any time. Except for expenses of sales and promotion, executive and
administrative  personnel,  and certain services which are furnished by LMC, the
cost of the  plans  generally  is borne  by the  Trust;  however,  each IRA plan
account  is  subject  to an annual  maintenance  fee of $12.00  charged by State
Street Bank and Trust Company (the "Agent").

                INVESTMENT ADVISER, DISTRIBUTOR AND ADMINISTRATOR

    LMC, P.O. Box 1515/Park 80 West Plaza Two,  Saddle Brook,  New Jersey 07663,
is the  investment  adviser  to the  Trust  and,  as  such,  advises  and  makes

policies.

    Under  the  terms  of  the  investment   advisory  agreement  with  LMC,  as
compensation  for its services to the Trust, LMC receives monthly from the Trust
a fee at the  annual  rates of 0.5% of that  portion  of the  average  daily net
assets of the Trust not  exceeding  $500 million and 0.45% of the average  daily
net assets of the Trust in excess of $500 million,  computed  monthly.  All fees
and  expenses  are accrued  daily and  deducted  before  payment of dividends to
investors.  Such  agreement  provides  that if in any fiscal year the  aggregate
expenses of the Trust, exclusive of taxes, brokerage, interest and extraordinary
expenses,  but  including  the fees  payable  to the  adviser,  exceed 1% of the
average daily net assets,  LMC will refund monthly to the Trust or bear any such
excess.

    Under the terms of the advisory agreement LMC also pays the Trust's expenses
for office rent, utilities,  telephone,  furniture and supplies utilized for the
Trust's  principal  office and the salaries and payroll  expense of officers and
trustees  of the  Trust  who are  also  employees  of LMC or its  affiliates  in
carrying out its duties under the investment advisory agreement.  The Trust pays
all its  other  expenses,  including  custodian  and  transfer  fees,  legal and
registration fees, audit fees, printing of prospectuses, shareholder reports and
communications  required for regulatory purposes or for distribution to existing
shareholders, computation of net asset value, mailing of shareholder reports and
communications,  portfolio brokerage,  taxes and independent trustees' fees, and
furnishes  LFD,  at  printer's  overrun  cost  paid by LFD,  such  copies of its
prospectus   and  annual,   semi-annual   and  other  reports  and   shareholder
communications  as may reasonably be required for sales  purposes.  In addition,
the Trust will bear any costs  associated  with the securities loan program (any
such loans will increase the return to the shareholders).

    The investment  advisory agreement will automatically  terminate if assigned
and may be  terminated  by either party upon 60 days'  notice.  The terms of the
agreement  and any  renewal  thereof  must be  approved  at least  annually by a
majority of its  trustees,  including a majority of trustees who are not parties
to the  agreement  or  "interested  persons"  of such  parties,  as such term is
defined under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended.

    LMC serves as investment  adviser to other investment  companies and private
and institutional investment accounts.  Included among these clients are persons
and organizations which own significant amounts of capital stock of LMC's parent
(see below).  These clients pay fees which LMC  considers  comparable to the fee
levels for similarly  served clients.  LMC's accounts are managed  independently
with reference to the  applicable  investment  objectives  and current  security
holdings  but on  occasion  more than one fund or  counsel  account  may seek to
engage in  transactions  in the same  security  at the same time.  To the extent
practicable,  such  transactions  will  be  effected  on  a  pro-rata  basis  in
proportion  to the  respective  amounts of  securities to be bought and sold for
each  portfolio,  and the allocated  transactions  will be averaged as to price.
While this  procedure may adversely  affect the price or volume of a given Trust
transaction,  LMC  believes  that the  ability  of the Trust to  participate  in
combined transactions may generally produce better executions overall.

    LFD also  serves  as  distributor  for  Trust  shares  under a  Distribution
Agreement  which is subject to annual  approval by a majority  of the  Trustees,
including a majority of those who are not "interested persons".

    LMC  also  acts  as   administrator   to  the  Fund  and  performs   certain
administrative and internal accounting  services,  including but not limited to,
maintaining  general  ledger  accounts,  regulatory  compliance,  preparation of
financial information for semiannual and annual reports,  preparing registration
statements,   calculating  net  asset  values,  shareholder  communications  and
supervision of the custodian of, transfer agent and provides facilities for such
services.  The  Fund  pays LMC a fee,  payable  monthly,  equal to the  pro-rata
portion of  LMC(acute  accent)Is  actual cost in  providing  such  services  and
facilities.

    Of the trustees,  officers or employees ("affiliated persons") of the Trust,
Messrs. Corniotes,  DeMichele,  Faust, Hisey, Kantor, Jamison, Lavery, Luehs and
Petruski  and  Mmes.  Carnicelli,   Carr,  Curcio,   Gilfillan  and  Mosca  (see
"Management  of the  Trust") may also be deemed  affiliates  of LMC by virtue of
being  officers,  directors  or  employees  thereof.  As of March 1,  1996,  all
officers  and  trustees of the Trust as a group were  beneficial  owners of less
than 1% of the shares of the Trust.

    LMC  and  LFD  are  wholly-owned  subsidiaries  of  Lexington  Global  Asset
Managers,  Inc., a Delaware corporation with offices at Park 80 West, Plaza Two,
Saddle Brook, New Jersey 07663.  Descendants of Lunsford Richardson,  Sr., their
spouses, trusts and other related entities have a majority voting control of the
outstanding shares of Lexington Global Asset Managers, Inc.

    LMC received  from the Trust under the advisory  agreement the following net
fees as of the fiscal year ended December 31, 1993, $509,533; December 31, 1994,
$503,124 and December 31, 1995, $473,889.

                             PORTFOLIO TRANSACTIONS

    Portfolio securities are normally purchased directly from the issuer or from
an underwriter or market maker for money market instruments.  Therefore, usually
no brokerage  commissions were paid by the Trust.  Transactions are allocated to
various dealers by LMC in its best judgment.  Dealers are selected  primarily on
the basis of prompt execution of orders at the most favorable prices.  The Trust
has no  obligation  to deal  with any  dealer  or group of  dealers.  Particular
dealers may be selected for research or statistical and other services to enable
LMC to  supplement  its own  research  and  analysis  with  that of such  firms.
Information  so received  will be in addition to and not in lieu of the services
required to be performed by LMC under the investment  advisory agreement and the
expenses  of LMC will not  necessarily  be reduced as a result of the receipt of
such supplemental information.

                 DIVIDEND, DISTRIBUTION AND REINVESTMENT POLICY

    Substantially  all of the  Trust's net income will be declared as a dividend
daily. The net income of the Trust (from the immediately preceding determination
thereof) consists of: (i) all interest income accrued on the portfolio assets of
the Trust;  (ii) plus or minus all realized and  unrealized  gains and losses on
portfolio  assets  of the  Trust;  and (iii)  less all  expenses  of the  Trust.
Interest income includes  discounts earned (including  original issue and market
discount)  on  discount  paper  accrued  ratably  to the date of  maturity.  All
distributions  will be  reinvested  automatically  in  additional  shares unless
specific  instructions  otherwise  are  received  by the  Agent.  Dividends  are
declared,  reinvested  daily and  distributed  monthly in the form of additional
full and  fractional  shares at net asset  value.  Since the net income  will be
declared as a dividend each time the net income of the Trust is determined,  the
net  asset  value  per  share  will  normally  remain  at one  dollar  per share
immediately after each such dividend  declaration and determination.  If the net
income on any one day is a  negative  amount  (for  example,  if a sharp rise in
interest  rates causes  realized and  unrealized  losses on portfolio  assets in
excess of interest  income),  the Trust will first  offset the  negative  amount
against the accrued  dividends of each  account.  If the negative  amount should
exceed such accrued  dividends,  the Trust will reduce the number of outstanding
shares by treating each shareholder as having  contributed to the capital of the
Trust  that  number  of  full  and  fractional  shares  in the  account  of such
shareholder which represents the amount of such excess at the time of


                                       6
<PAGE>

the  determination.  Each  shareholder  will be  deemed  to have  agreed to such
contribution  in  these  circumstances  by his  investment  in the  Trust.  This
procedure  will  permit  the net  asset  value  per  share  of the  Trust  to be
maintained  at a  constant  value  of  $1.00  per  share.  If in the view of the
Trustees it is inadvisable to continue the practice of maintaining the net asset
value of one dollar  per  share,  the  Trustees  reserve  the right to alter the
procedure.  Shareholders  will be  notified  promptly  of any  such  alteration.
Shareholders will be notified annually of the tax status of all distributions.

                                   TAX MATTERS

    The  following is only a summary of certain  additional  tax  considerations
generally affecting the Trust and its shareholders that are not described in the
Prospectus.  No attempt is made to  present a  detailed  explanation  of the tax
treatment of the Trust or its shareholders,  and the discussions here and in the
Prospectus are not intended as substitutes for careful tax planning.

Qualification as a Regulated Investment Company

    The Trust has elected to be taxed as a regulated  investment  company  under
Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"). As a
regulated  investment company, the Trust is not subject to federal income tax on
the portion of its net investment income (i.e., taxable interest,  dividends and
other  taxable  ordinary  income,  net of expenses)  and capital gain net income
(i.e.,  the excess of capital gains over capital  losses) that it distributes to
shareholders,  provided  that it  distributes  at  least  90% of its  investment
company  taxable  income  (i.e.,  net  investment  income  and the excess of net
short-term  capital gain over net  long-term  capital loss) for the taxable year
(the  "Distribution  Requirement"),  and satisfies certain other requirements of
the Code that are described  below.  Distributions  by the Trust made during the
taxable year or, under specified  circumstances,  within twelve months after the
close of the taxable year, will be considered  distributions of income and gains
of the taxable year and can therefore satisfy the Distribution Requirement.

    In  addition  to  satisfying  the  Distribution  Requirement,   a  regulated
investment  company  must:  (1)  derive at least 90% of its  gross  income  from
dividends,  interest,  certain payments with respect to securities loans,  gains
from the sale or other disposition of stock or securities or foreign  currencies
(to the  extent  such  currency  gains are  directly  related  to the  regulated
investment company's principal business of investing in stock or securities) and
other  income  (including  but not  limited  to gains from  options,  futures or
forward  contracts)  derived  with  respect to its business of investing in such
stock, securities or currencies (the "Income Requirement");  and (2) derive less
than 30% of its gross income  (exclusive of certain gains on designated  hedging
transactions  that are offset by realized  or  unrealized  losses on  offsetting
positions)  from the sale or other  disposition of stock,  securities or foreign
currencies (or options, futures or forward contracts thereon) held for less than
three months (the  "Short-Short  Gain Test").  However,  foreign currency gains,
including  those  derived from options,  futures and  forwards,  will not in any
event be  characterized  as Short-Short Gain if they are directly related to the
regulated investment company's investments in stock or securities (or options or
futures  thereon).  Because of the Short-Short  Gain Test, the Trust may have to
limit the sale of  appreciated  securities  that it has held for less than three
months.  However,  the  Short-Short  Gain Test will not  prevent  the Trust from
disposing of investments at a loss,  since the  recognition of a loss before the
expiration of the  three-month  holding period is disregarded  for this purpose.
Interest  (including  original issue discount) received by the Trust at maturity
or upon the  disposition  of a security held for less than three months will not
be treated as gross income  derived from the sale or other  disposition  of such
security within the meaning of the Short-Short Gain Test.  However,  income that
is attributable to realized market  appreciation will be treated as gross income
from the sale or other disposition of securities for this purpose.

    In general,  gain or loss  recognized by the Trust on the  disposition of an
asset  will  be a  capital  gain  or  loss.  However,  gain  recognized  on  the
disposition  of a debt  obligation  purchased by the Trust at a market  discount
(generally,  at a price  less than its  principal  amount)  will be  treated  as
ordinary  income to the  extent of the  portion  of the  market  discount  which
accrued during the period of time the Trust held the debt obligation.

    Treasury  Regulations permit a regulated  investment company, in determining
its investment  company taxable income and net capital gain (i.e., the excess of
net  long-term  capital gain over net  short-term  capital loss) for any taxable
year,  to elect  (unless  it has made a taxable  year  election  for  excise tax
purposes as discussed  below) to treat all or any part of any net capital  loss,
any net long-term  capital loss or any net foreign  currency loss incurred after
October 31 as if it had been incurred in the succeeding year.

    In addition to satisfying the  requirements  described above, the Trust must
satisfy  an  asset  diversification  test in  order to  qualify  as a  regulated
investment company. Under this test, at the close of each quarter of the Trust's
taxable  year,  at least 50% of the value of the Trust's  assets must consist of
cash and cash items, U.S. Government  securities,  securities of other regulated
investment companies, and securities of other issuers (as to which the Trust has
not


                                       7
<PAGE>

invested  more than 5% of the value of the Trust's total assets in securities of
such  issuer  and as to which  the  Trust  does not  hold  more  than 10% of the
outstanding voting securities of such issuer), and no more than 25% of the value
of its total assets may be invested in the  securities  of any one issuer (other
than U.S.  Government  securities and securities of other  regulated  investment
companies),  or in two or more  issuers  which the Trust  controls and which are
engaged in the same or similar trades or businesses.

    If for any taxable year the Trust does not qualify as a regulated investment
company,  all of its taxable  income  (including  its net capital  gain) will be
subject  to  tax  at  regular   corporate   rates   without  any  deduction  for
distributions to  shareholders,  and such  distributions  will be taxable to the
shareholders  as ordinary  dividends  to the extent of the  Trust's  current and
accumulated earnings and profits. Such distributions  generally will be eligible
for the dividends-received deduction in the case of corporate shareholders.

Excise Tax on Regulated Investment Companies

    A 4% non-deductible  excise tax is imposed on a regulated investment company
that  fails  to  distribute  in each  calendar  year an  amount  equal to 98% of
ordinary taxable income for the calendar year and 98% of capital gain net income
for the one-year  period ended on October 31 of such  calendar  year (or, at the
election of a regulated investment company having a taxable year ending November
30 or  December  31, for its  taxable  year (a "taxable  year  election")).  The
balance of such income must be  distributed  during the next calendar  year. For
the  foregoing  purposes,  a regulated  investment  company is treated as having
distributed any amount on which it is subject to income tax for any taxable year
ending in such calendar year.

    For purposes of the excise tax, a regulated  investment  company shall:  (1)
reduce its capital  gain net income (but not below its net capital  gain) by the
amount of any net ordinary loss for the calendar year;  and (2) exclude  foreign
currency  gains and losses  incurred  after October 31 of any year (or after the
end of its taxable year if it has made a taxable year  election) in  determining
the amount of  ordinary  taxable  income  for the  current  calendar  year (and,
instead,  include such gains and losses in determining  ordinary  taxable income
for the succeeding calendar year).

    The Trust intends to make sufficient  distributions or deemed  distributions
of its ordinary  taxable  income and capital gain net income prior to the end of
each calendar year to avoid  liability  for the excise tax.  However,  investors
should note that the Trust may in certain circumstances be required to liquidate
portfolio  investments  to make  sufficient  distributions  to avoid  excise tax
liability.

Trust Distributions

    The  Trust  anticipates  distributing  substantially  all of its  investment
company taxable income for each taxable year. Such distributions will be taxable
to  shareholders  as ordinary income and treated as dividends for federal income
tax purposes, but they will not qualify for the 70% dividends-received deduction
for corporate shareholders.

    The Trust does not expect to realize any long-term  capital gains or losses.
Distributions  by the Trust that do not constitute  ordinary income dividends or
capital gain  dividends  will be treated as a return of capital to the extent of
(and in reduction of) the shareholder's tax basis in his shares; any excess will
be  treated  as  gain  from  the  sale  of  his  shares,   as  discussed  below.
Distributions  by the  Trust  will be  treated  in the  manner  described  above
regardless  of whether  such  distributions  are paid in cash or  reinvested  in
additional  shares of the Trust (or of another fund).  Shareholders  receiving a
distribution  in the form of  additional  shares will be treated as  receiving a
distribution in an amount equal to the fair market value of the shares received,
determined as of the reinvestment  date. In addition,  if the net asset value at
the time a shareholder purchases shares of the Trust reflects  undistributed net
investment  income  or  recognized   capital  gain  net  income,  or  unrealized
appreciation  in the value of the  assets of the  Trust,  distributions  of such
amounts  will be  taxable to the  shareholder  in the  manner  described  above,
although such distributions  economically  constitute a return of capital to the
shareholder.

    Ordinarily,  shareholders  are required to take  distributions  by the Trust
into account in the year in which the distributions are made. However, dividends
declared  in  October,   November  or  December  of  any  year  and  payable  to
shareholders  of record on a  specified  date in such a month  will be deemed to
have been received by the shareholders (and made by the Trust) on December 31 of
such  calendar  year if such  dividends  are  actually  paid in  January  of the
following year.  Shareholders  will be advised  annually as to the U.S.  federal
income tax consequences of distributions made (or deemed made) during the year.

    The Trust will be  required in certain  cases to  withhold  and remit to the
U.S.  Treasury 31% of ordinary income dividends and capital gain dividends,  and
the  proceeds  of  redemption  of shares,  paid to any  shareholder  (1) who has
provided either an incorrect tax identification  number or no number at all, (2)
who is  subject  to backup  withholding  by the IRS for  failure  to report  the
receipt  of  interest  or  dividend  income  properly,  or (3) who has failed to
certify to the Trust that it is not subject to backup  withholding or that it is
a corporation or other "exempt recipient."


                                       8
<PAGE>

Sale or Redemption of Shares

    The Trust  seeks to  maintain a stable  net asset  value of $1.00 per share;
however,  there can be no assurance that the Trust will do this. In such a case,
a shareholder will recognize gain or loss on the sale or redemption of shares of
the Trust in an amount equal to the difference  between the proceeds of the sale
or redemption and the shareholder's  adjusted tax basis in the shares.  All or a
portion of any loss so recognized may be disallowed if the shareholder purchases
other shares of the Trust within 30 days before or after the sale or redemption.
In general,  any gain or loss arising from (or treated as arising from) the sale
or redemption of shares of the Trust will be considered capital gain or loss and
will be  long-term  capital gain or loss if the shares were held for longer than
one year.

Foreign Shareholders

    Taxation of a  shareholder  who, as to the United  States,  is a nonresident
alien  individual,  foreign  trust or estate,  foreign  corporation,  or foreign
partnership  ("foreign  shareholder"),  depends on whether  the income  from the
Trust is  "effectively  connected"  with a U.S. trade or business  carried on by
such shareholder.

    If the income from the Trust is not effectively  connected with a U.S. trade
or business carried on by a foreign shareholder,  ordinary income dividends paid
to a foreign shareholder will be subject to U.S.  withholding tax at the rate of
30% (or lower treaty rate) upon the gross amount of the dividend. Such a foreign
shareholder  would  generally  be exempt from U.S.  federal  income tax on gains
realized on the sale of shares of the Trust.

    If the income from the Trust is  effectively  connected with a U.S. trade or
business carried on by a foreign shareholder, then ordinary income dividends and
any gains  realized upon the sale of shares of the Trust will be subject to U.S.
federal  income  tax at the  rates  applicable  to  U.S.  citizens  or  domestic
corporations.

    In the case of foreign noncorporate shareholders,  the Trust may be required
to withhold U.S. federal income tax at a rate of 31% on  distributions  that are
otherwise  exempt from  withholding  tax (or taxable at a reduced  treaty  rate)
unless  such  shareholders  furnish the Trust with  proper  notification  of its
foreign status.

    The tax consequences to a foreign shareholder entitled to claim the benefits
of an  applicable  tax treaty may be  different  from  those  described  herein.
Foreign shareholders are urged to consult their own tax advisers with respect to
the particular tax consequences to them of an investment in the Trust, including
the applicability of foreign taxes.

Effect of Future Legislation; Local Tax Considerations

    The foregoing general  discussion of U.S. federal income tax consequences is
based on the Code and the Treasury Regulations issued thereunder as in effect on
the date of this  Statement of Additional  Information.  Future  legislative  or
administrative   changes  or  court  decisions  may  significantly   change  the
conclusions  expressed  herein,  and any such  changes or  decisions  may have a
retroactive effect with respect to the transactions contemplated herein.

    Rules of state and local  taxation of dividends  from  regulated  investment
companies often differ from the rules for U.S. federal income taxation described
above.  Shareholders  are  urged  to  consult  their  tax  advisers  as  to  the
consequences of these and other state and local tax rules  affecting  investment
in the Trust.

            CUSTODIAN, TRANSFER AGENT, AND DIVIDEND DISBURSING AGENT

    Chase Manhattan Bank, N.A., 1211 Avenue of the Americas,  New York, New York
10036,  has been  retained to act as Custodian for the Trust's  investments  and
assets.  State  Street Bank and Trust  Company,  225  Franklin  Street,  Boston,
Massachusetts  02110 is the transfer agent and dividend disbursing agent for the
Trust.  Neither  Chase  Manhattan  Bank,  N.A.  nor State  Street Bank and Trust
Company have any part in determining the investment  policies of the Trust or in
determining which portfolio  securities are to be purchased or sold by the Trust
or in the declaration of dividends and distributions.

             Remuneration of Trustees and Certain Executive Officers:

    Each Trustee is reimbursed  for expenses  incurred in attending each meeting
of the Board of Trustees or any  committee  thereof.  Each Trustee who is not an
affiliate of the advisor is compensated  for his or her services  according to a
fee  schedule  which  recognizes  the fact that each  Trustee  also  serves as a
Trustee of other  investment  companies  advised by LMC. Each Trustee receives a
fee,  allocated  among all  investment  companies for which the Trustee  serves.
Effective  September  12, 1995 each  Trustee  receives  annual  compensation  of
$24,000.  Prior to September 12, 1995, the trustees who were not employed by the
Fund or its affiliates received annual compensation of $16,000.

Retirement Plan for Eligible Directors/Trustees

    Effective  September 12, 1995, the Trustees instituted a Retirement Plan for
Eligible Directors/Trustees (the "Plan") pursuant to which each Director/Trustee
(who is not an  employee  of any of the Funds,  the  Advisor,  Administrator  or
Distributor or any of their affiliates) may be entitled to certain benefits upon
retirement from the Board.  Pursuant to the Plan, the normal  retirement date is
the date on which the  eligible  Director/Trustee  has  attained  age 65 and has
completed at least ten years of continuous and non-forfeited service with one or
more  of  the  investment   companies   advised  by  LMC  (or  its   affiliates)
(collectively,  the "Covered Funds"). Each eligible Director/Trustee is entitled
to receive from the Covered Fund an annual  benefit  commencing on the first day
of the calendar quarter coincident with or next following his date of retirement
equal  to  5%  of  his   compensation   multiplied   by  the   number   of  such
Director/Trustee's  years of service (not in excess of 15 years)  completed with
respect  to any of the  Covered  Portfolios.  Such  benefit  is  payable to each
eligible  Trustee in quarterly  installments for ten years following the date of
retirement or the life of the Director/Trustee. The Plan establishes age 72 as a
mandatory  retirement  age for  Directors/Trustees;  however,  Director/Trustees
serving the Funds as of  September  12,  1995 are not subject to such  mandatory
retirement.  Directors/Trustees  serving the Funds as of September  12, 1995 who
elect  retirement  under the Plan prior to  September  12, 1996 will  receive an
annual retirement benefit at any increased compensation level if compensation is
increased prior to September 12, 1997 and receive spousal benefits (i.e., in the
event the Director/Trustee dies prior to receiving full benefits under the Plan,
the  Director/Trustee's  spouse  (if  any)  will  be  entitled  to  receive  the
retirement benefit within the 10 year period.)

    Retiring  Trustees  will be eligible to serve as Honorary  Trustees  for one
year after  retirement and will be entitled to be reimbursed for travel expenses
to attend a maximum of two meetings.

    Set forth in the table below are the estimated annual benefits payable to an
eligible  Trustee upon retirement  assuming  various  compensation  and years of
service  classifications.  As of December 31, 1995, the estimated credited years
of service for Trustees Duer, Miller,  Preston,  Russell, Smith  and  Sunderland
are 18, 22, 18, 15, 26 and 36, respectively.

Independent Auditors' Report

The Board of Trustees and Shareholders
Lexington Money Market Trust:

    We have audited the  accompanying  statements of net assets  (including  the
portfolio of  investments)  and assets and liabilities of Lexington Money Market
Trust as of December 31, 1995, the related  statement of operations for the year
then ended, the statements of changes in net assets for each of the years in the
two-year period then ended,  and the financial  highlights for each of the years
in the five-year  period then ended.  These  financial  statements and financial
highlights are the responsibility of the Trust's management.  Our responsibility
is to express an opinion on these financial  statements and financial highlights
based on our audits.

    We conducted  our audits in  accordance  with  generally  accepted  auditing
standards.  Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable  assurance  about  whether the  financial  statements  and  financial
highlights are free of material misstatement.  An audit includes examining, on a
test basis,  evidence  supporting  the amounts and  disclosures in the financial
statements.  Our  procedures  included  confirmation  of securities  owned as of
December 31, 1995 by  correspondence  with the custodian  and brokers.  An audit
also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates
made by  management,  as well as  evaluating  the  overall  financial  statement
presentation.  We believe  that our audits  provide a  reasonable  basis for our
opinion.

    In our opinion,  the financial  statements and financial highlights referred
to above present fairly,  in all material  respects,  the financial  position of
Lexington  Money  Market  Trust as of  December  31,  1995,  the  results of its
operations  for the year then  ended,  the changes in its net assets for each of
the years in the two-year  period then ended,  and the financial  highlights for
each of the  years in the  five-year  period  then  ended,  in  conformity  with
generally accepted accounting principles.

                                                           KPMG Peat Marwick LLP

Lexington Money Market Trust
Notes to Financial Statements
December 31, 1995 and 1994

1.  Significant Accounting Policies

Lexington Money Market Trust (the "Trust") is an open end diversified management
investment  company  registered  under the  Investment  Company Act of 1940,  as
amended.  The Trust's  investment  objective  is to seek a high level of current
income from  short-term  investments as is consistent  with the  preservation of
capital and  liquidity.  The  following is a summary of  significant  accounting
policies followed by the Trust in the preparation of its financial statements:

    Securities  Security  transactions  are accounted for on a trade date basis.
Investments are valued at amortized cost, which approximates market value. Under
this valuation method, a portfolio instrument is valued at cost and any discount
or premium is amortized on a constant  basis to the maturity of the  instrument.
Interest income is accrued as earned.

    Federal  Income  Taxes  It is the  Trust's  intention  to  comply  with  the
requirements of the Internal  Revenue Code  applicable to "regulated  investment
companies"  and to  distribute  all of its taxable  income to its  shareholders.
Therefore, no provision for Federal income taxes has been made.

    Dividends  Dividends are declared daily from net  investment  income and net
realized  gain (loss) on  investments.

2.  Investment  Advisory  Fees and Other Transactions  with  Affiliate

The Trust pays an investment  advisory fee to Lexington  Management  Corporation
(LMC) at the annual rate of 0.50% of that portion of the Trust's  average  daily
net assets up to $500 million and .45% of its average daily net assets in excess
of $500  million.  LMC is  required  to  reimburse  the Trust for any  expenses,
including the  investment  adviser's fee but  excluding  interest and taxes,  in
excess of 1% of the Trust's average daily net assets. Reimbursement for the year
ended December 31, 1995 amounted to $73,268 and is set forth in the statement of
operations.

The Trust also  reimburses LMC for certain  expenses,  including  accounting and
shareholder servicing costs, which are incurred by the Trust but paid by LMC.

4.  Cash
In order to facilitate the clearing  process for redemptions by check, the Trust
maintains a compensating  balance with its transfer agent. At December 31, 1995,
this  compensating  balance  amounted to $112,000 and is included in cash in the
statement of assets and liabilities.
