2. Name Change. IDS Life Capital Resource Fund, Inc., the
corporate entity composed of three underlying funds, including IDS
Life Capital Resource Fund, changed its name to IDS Life Investment
Series, Inc. The name of the underlying funds will remain
unchanged.
3. Master-Feeder Investment Policy. At some future time, the
Board of Directors (the "Board") may determine that it is in the
best interest of the Fund and its shareholders to create what is
known as a master/feeder fund structure. This structure allows
several investment companies and other investment groups, including
pension plans and trust accounts, to have their investment
portfolios managed as a combined pool called the master fund. The
purpose of the structure is to achieve operational efficiencies.
Shareholders approved a new investment policy permitting the
structure if the Board decides it is appropriate.
The section of the prospectus titled "How the fund is organized" is
modified by adding the following: At some time in the future,
the Board of the fund may decide to convert to a
master/feeder structure. If the Board makes that decision,
the fund would seek to achieve its goal by investing all of
its assets in another investment company with the same goal
as the fund, rather than investing directly in a portfolio of
securities.
4. Changes in Fundamental Policies. Except for shareholders of
Life Moneyshare, shareholders changed the status of a number of
policies from fundamental (changeable only with shareholder
approval) to nonfundamental (changeable by the Board without
shareholder vote). Policies changed include those regarding:
buying on margin or selling short; pledging assets as collateral;
investing in issuers with less than 3 years of operating history;
investing in other investment companies; investing for purposes of
exercising control or management; investing in oil, gas or mineral
exploration or development programs; and investing in illiquid
securities.
In addition, shareholders approved a revision in the fundamental
policy on making loans to permit the fund to make cash loans up to
5% of its total assets; and a revision in the policy on investing
in real estate to clarify that the Fund may invest in securities or
other instruments backed by real estate or securities of companies
engaged in the real estate business; and a revision in the policy
on investing in commodities to clarify that the Fund may invest in
securities or other instruments backed by, or whose value is
derived from, physical commodities.
