                          Establishment and Designation
                   of Classes of Shares of Beneficial Interest
                         with $0.01 Par Value Per Share


     The undersigned, being a majority of the Trustees of Lexington Money Market
Trust, a Massachusetts business trust (the "Trust"),  acting pursuant to Section
5.13 of the  Declaration  of Trust  dated  July 26,  2000 (the  "Declaration  of
Trust") of the Trust, hereby further divide the shares of beneficial interest of
the Trust into additional  classes,  to have the following  special and relative
rights:

     1. The existing  shares shall be designated  "Lexington  Money Market Trust
Class A."

     2. The Trust is authorized to invest in cash,  securities,  instruments and
other  property as from time to time  described  in the Trust's  then  currently
effective registration statement under the Securities Act of 1933. Each share of
beneficial  interest of the Trust  ("Share") is  redeemable,  is entitled to one
vote (or fraction thereof in respect of a fractional  Share) on matters on which
Shares of the Trust shall be entitled  to vote  (subject to  paragraph 3 below),
shall  represent a pro rata beneficial  interest in the assets  allocated to the
Trust  (subject  to  paragraph 4 below) and shall be entitled to receive its pro
rata  share of net  assets of the Trust upon  liquidation  of the Trust,  all as
provided in the Declaration of Trust.

     3.  Shareholders  of the Trust shall vote together as a single class on any
matter,  except to the extent required by the Investment Company Act of 1940, as
amended (the "1940 Act"),  or when the Trustees have  determined that the matter
affects only the interests of Shareholders of a particular  class of Shares,  in
which  case  only the  Shareholders  of such  class  shall be  entitled  to vote
thereon.  Any matter  shall be deemed to have been  effectively  acted upon with
respect  to any class as  provided  in Rule  18f-2  under  the 1940 Act,  or any
successor rule, and in the Declaration of Trust.

     4.  Liabilities,  expenses,  costs,  charges  and  reserves  related to the
distribution of, and other identified expenses that should properly be allocated
to, the Shares of a particular  class may be charged to and borne solely by such
class  and  the  bearing  of  expenses  solely  by a  class  of  Shares  may  be
appropriately  reflected  (in a manner  determined by the  Trustees),  and cause
differences  in,  the  net  asset  value  attributable  to,  and  the  dividend,
redemption  and  liquidation  rights of, the Shares of different  classes.  Each
allocation of liabilities, expenses, costs, charges and reserves by the Trustees
shall be  conclusive  and binding upon the  Shareholders  of all classes for all
purposes.

     5.  Shares of each  class of the Trust may vary  between  themselves  as to
rights of redemption and conversion  rights,  as may be approved by the Trustees
and set forth in the Trust's then-current prospectus.

     6. The  Trustees  shall have the right at any time and from time to time to
reallocate  assets and expenses or to change the designation of the Trust or any
class thereof hitherto or hereafter created,  or to otherwise change the special
and relative rights of the Trust or any class thereof, provided that such change
shall not adversely affect to rights of the Shareholders of the Trust or class.

day of July, 2000.
