                             DESCRIPTION OF THE FUND

    The Fund is an open-end  diversified  management  investment  company. It is
called a no-load Fund because its shares are sold without a sales charge.

                              INVESTMENT OBJECTIVE

    The Fund's  principal  investment  objective  is long term  appreciation  of
capital.  Income is a secondary  objective.  The Fund  normally  will invest its
assets in publicly traded common stocks and senior  securities  convertible into
common stocks of domestic and foreign  companies.  It intends  however,  when it
deems it  appropriate  for defensive  purposes,  to make  investments in varying
amounts of senior  securities such as bonds,  debentures,  and preferred stocks.
The Fund attempts to achieve its objective by investing  principally in publicly
traded  common  stocks,  bonds,  debentures  and  preferred  stock (which may be
convertible  into or which carries the right to be converted into common stock),
and secondarily in securities as described above which offer attractive  current
yields and the potential for capital appreciation.

                       INVESTMENT POLICY AND RESTRICTIONS

    The Fund's  principal  investment  objective  is long term  appreciation  of
capital.  Income return is a secondary  objective.  The Fund will not: (i) issue
senior securities;  (ii) underwrite securities of other issuers;  (iii) purchase
or sell real estate,  commodity contracts or commodities (however,  the Fund may
purchase  interests  in real  estate  investment  trusts  whose  securities  are
registered  under the Securities Act of 1933 and are readily  marketable);  (iv)
make loans to other  persons  except (a)  through  the  purchase of a portion or
portions of publicly  distributed  bonds,  notes,  debentures  and  evidences of
indebtedness  authorized by its investment policy, or (b) through investments in
"repurchase  agreements" (which are arrangements under which the Fund acquires a
debt security subject to an obligation of the seller to repurchase it at a fixed
price  within a short  period),  provided  that no more  than 10% of the  Fund's
assets may be invested in repurchase  agreements which mature in more than seven
days;  (v) purchase the securities of another  investment  company or investment
trust except in the open market where no profit  results to a sponsor or dealer,
other than the  customary  broker's  commission;  (vi)  purchase any security on
margin or effect a short sale of a security;  (vii) buy securities  from or sell
securities  to any of its officers and  directors or its  investment  adviser or
principal  distributor  as  principal;  (viii)  contract to sell any security or
evidence of interest  therein  except to the extent that the same shall be owned
by the  Fund;  (ix)  retain  securities  of an  issuer  when  one or more of the
officers and directors of the Fund or the investment  adviser or a person owning
more  than 10% of the stock of  either,  own  benefically  more than 0.5% of the
securities  of such  issuer  and  the  persons  owning  more  than  0.5% of such
securities  together own  beneficially  more than 5% of the  securities  of such
issuer;  (x)  invest  more  than 5% of the  value  of its  total  assets  in the
securities of any one issuer nor acquire more than 10% of the outstanding voting
securities  of any one  issuer;  (xi)  invest in  companies  for the  purpose of
exercising  management or control;  or (xii)  concentrate  its  investments in a
particular industry; thus the Fund will not purchase a security if the immediate
effect  of such  purchase  would be to  increase  the  Fund's  holdings  in such
industry above 25% of the Fund's assets. The 5%  diversification  limitation set
forth in  subparagraph  (x)  above  does  not  apply to  obligations  issued  or
guaranteed  as to principal and interest by the United  States  government,  nor
does it apply to bank  certificates of deposit,  which are not classified by the
Fund as securities for the purposes of this limitation.

    The Fund  shareholder  vote  required  for  modification  of its  investment
policies  or  restrictions  is the  lesser  of:  (a) 67% or  more of the  voting
securities  present at a meeting if the  holders of more than 50% are present or
represented by proxy; or (b) more than 50% of the voting securities.

    In addition to the above fundamental investment  restrictions,  the Fund has
undertaken not to: a) invest an aggregate of more than 5% of its total assets in
the securities of unseasoned  issuers and equity securities of issuers which are
not readily marketable; b) purchase any class of securities of an issuer if such
purchase  would cause the Fund to own at the time of the purchase  more than 10%
of any such  class  of  securities  of an  issuer;  c)  invest  in puts,  calls,
straddles,  spreads, and any combination thereof; d) invest in


                                       3

<PAGE>

interests in oil, gas or other mineral exploration or development  programs;  e)
pledge,  mortgage or hypothecate the assets of the greater than 15% of the gross
assets of the Fund  taken at cost;  or f) invest  more than 20% of its assets in
foreign companies.

    The Fund has  authority  to  borrow  money  from a bank not in excess of the
lesser of: (a) 5% of the gross assets of the Fund at the current market value at
the time of such borrowing;  or (b) 10% of the gross assets of the Fund taken at
cost.  Any such  borrowing  may be  undertaken  only as a temporary  measure for
extraordinary or emergency purposes. This borrowing power has not been exercised
by the Fund's management.

    Although  the Fund has the right to  pledge,  mortgage  or  hypothecate  its
assets, in order to comply with a state statute,  the Fund will not, as a matter
of operating  policy while offering  shares in such state,  pledge,  mortgage or
hypothecate  its  portfolio  securities  to the  extent  that  at any  time  the
percentage of pledged  securities  will exceed 10% of the offering  price of the
Fund's shares.

    The Fund's investment portfolio may include repurchase  agreements ("repos")
with banks and dealers in U.S.  Government  securities.  A repurchase  agreement
involves the  purchase by the Fund of an  investment  contract  from a bank or a
dealer  in  U.S.  Government  securities  which  contract  is  secured  by  debt
securities  whose value is equal to or greater than the value of the  repurchase
agreement  including the agreed upon interest.  The agreement  provides that the
institution will repurchase the underlying securities at an agreed upon time and
price.  The total amount  received on repurchase  would exceed the price paid by
the Fund,  reflecting  an agreed upon rate of  interest  for the period from the
date of the  repurchase  agreement  to the  settlement  date,  and  would not be
related  to the  interest  rate on the  underlying  securities.  The  difference
between the total amount to be received upon the  repurchase  of the  securities
and the price  paid by the Fund  upon  their  acquisition  is  accrued  daily as
interest. If the institution defaults on the repurchase agreement, the Fund 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 Fund  may be  delayed  or  limited  and the  Fund  may  incur
additional costs. In such case the Fund will be subject to risks associated with
changes in the market value of the  collateral  securities.  The Fund intends to
limit repurchase  agreements to transactions with  institutions  believed by the
adviser to present minimal credit risk.

Risk Considerations

    Investments in foreign  securities may involve risks and  considerations not
present  in  domestic  investments.   Since  foreign  securities  generally  are
denominated  and pay interest or dividends in foreign  currencies,  the value of
the assets of the Fund as measured  in United  States  dollars  will be affected
favorably or  unfavorably  by changes in the  relationship  of the United States
dollar and other currency rates. The Fund may incur costs in connection with the
conversion  or transfer of foreign  currencies.  In addition,  there may be less
publicly  available  information  about  foreign  companies  than United  States
companies.  Foreign  companies may not be subject to accounting,  auditing,  and
financial reporting  standards,  practices and requirements  comparable to those
applicable to United States companies. Foreign securities markets, while growing
in volume,  have for the most part  substantially less volume than United States
securities markets and securities of foreign companies are generally less liquid
and at times their prices may be more  volatile  than  securities  of comparable
United States companies.  Foreign stock exchanges,  brokers and listed companies
are generally subject to less government  supervision and regulation than in the
United  States.  The customary  settlement  time for foreign  securities  may be
longer than the 5 day customary  settlement  time for United States  securities.
Although the Fund will try to invest in companies and  governments  of countries
having stable political environments,  there is the possibility of expropriation
or  confiscatory  taxation,  seizure or  nationalization  or foreign  government
restrictions or other adverse political,  social or diplomatic developments that
could affect investment in these nations.

    Income from foreign  securities held by the Fund may, and in some cases will
be  reduced  by a  withholding  tax at the  source  or other  foreign  taxes.  A
shareholder of the Fund will,  subject to certain  restrictions,  be entitled to
claim a creditor deduction for United States Federal income tax purposes for the
shareholder's  pro rata  share of such  foreign  taxes  paid by the  Fund.  (See
Dividends, Capital Gains, Distributions and Tax Matters).

                               PORTFOLIO TURNOVER

    In the  selection  of  various  securities,  long-term  potential  will take
precedence over short term market  fluctuations.  While management maintains the
flexibility to sell portfolio  securities  regardless of how long they have been
held by the Fund, it is anticipated  that the Fund's annual  portfolio  turnover
rate will not exceed 100%. A rate of 100% could occur for example, if all of the
securities  held by the Fund were  replaced  within a period  of one year.  High
portfolio  turnover  rates can result in  corresponding  increases  in brokerage
costs. For the fiscal year ending December 31, 1994 the portfolio  turnover rate
was 63.04%.

                             MANAGEMENT OF THE FUND

    The  business  affairs of the Fund are managed  under the  direction  of its
Board of  Directors.  There  are  currently  ten  Directors  (of whom  seven are
non-affiliated  persons)  who meet  four  times  each  year.  The  Statement  of

                INVESTMENT ADVISER, DISTRIBUTOR AND ADMINISTRATOR

    Lexington Management  Corporation,  ("LMC") P.O. Box 1515/Park 80 West Plaza

Lexington Funds  Distributor,  Inc.  ("LFD") is the distributor of shares of the
Fund.

    LMC, established in 1938, currently manages over $3.8 billion in assets. LMC

                             HOW TO PURCHASE SHARES

Initial  Investment-Minimum  $1,000.  By Mail: Send a check payable to Lexington
Growth and Income Fund, Inc., along with a completed New Account  Application to
State Street Bank and Trust  Company (the  "Agent").  See the back cover of this
Prospectus for the Agent's address.


                                       5

<PAGE>

Subsequent  Investments-Minimum  $50. By Mail: Send a check payable to Lexington
Growth and Income Fund, Inc., to the Agent, accompanied by either the detachable
form  which  is part of the  confirmation  of a prior  transaction  or a  letter
indicating the dollar amount of the investment and identifying the Fund, account
number and registration.

Broker-Dealers:  You may invest in shares of the Fund 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.  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 Fund.

The Open Account: By investing in the Fund, 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").  Stock 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 a employer and on payments
into  qualified  pension or profit sharing plans and other  continuing  purchase
programs, there are no minimum purchase requirements. 

Determination  of Net  Asset  Value:  The net  asset  value  of Fund  shares  is
determined at the official  closing time of the New York Stock Exchange each day
that  such  Exchange  is open for  trading.  In  determining  net  asset  value,
portfolio securities listed on a national securities exchange are taken at their
sales price on such exchange as of such time; if no sales price is reported, the
mean of the last bid and asked price is used.  For  over-the-counter  securities
the mean of the latest bid and asked prices is used.  Securities for which there
are no current bid and asked prices,  and any other assets of the Fund for which
there is no readily available  market,  shall be valued by Fund officers in good
faith  using  methods  adopted  by the  Fund's  Board of  Directors.  Repurchase
agreements and certificates of deposit are stated at cost. In order to determine
net asset value per share, the aggregate value of portfolio  securities is added
to the value of the Fund's other assets, such as cash and receivables; the total
of the assets thus obtained, less liabilities,  is then divided by the number of
shares outstanding.

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 Fund.  To recover any such loss the Fund  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 Fund  reserves the right to reject any order,  and to waive or lower the
investment  minimums  with respect to any person or class of persons,  including
shareholders  of the Fund's special  investment  programs.  An order to purchase
shares is not  binding  on the Fund  until it has been  confirmed  by the Agent.

Account  Statements:  The Agent  will send  shareholders  either  purchasing  or
redeeming  shares of the Fund, a confirmation of the transaction  indicating the
date the purchase or redemption was accepted,  the number of shares purchased or
redeemed,  the

                              HOW TO REDEEM SHARES

purchase or redemption  price per share,  and the amount purchased or redemption
proceeds.  A statement is also sent to  shareholders  whenever a distribution is
paid, or when a change in the registration,  address, or dividend option occurs.
Shareholders are urged to retain their account statements for tax purposes.

By  Mail:  Send to the  Agent  (see the back  cover of this  Prospectus  for the
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) stock  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 Fund at the toll free
number  on the back  cover  prior  to  submitting  a  redemption  request.  If a
redemption  request is sent to the Fund 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 normally be mailed within seven days,
but will not be mailed until all checks in payment for the shares to be redeemed
have been cleared.

Signature  Guarantee:  Signature  guarantees are required in connection with (a)
redemptions  by mail  involving  $10,000 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  owners;  (c) changes in  instructions as to where the
proceeds of redemptions are to be sent, and (d) 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") specifying the total number
of  shares  to be  redeemed,  or (c)  on all  stock  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 Fund 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 Fund 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 Fund.  Due to the
proportionately high cost of maintaining smaller accounts, the Fund 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 Fund 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 Fund 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 fifth  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.

    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
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,  distributor of
the Lexington Group of Mutual Funds as the true and lawful attorney to surrender
for redemption or exchange any and all non-certificated shares held by the 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 other than an individual,  it
is  certified  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.


                                       9

<PAGE>


    Exchange Authorization forms, Telephone Authorization forms and prospectuses
of the other funds may be obtained from LFD.

    The  Distributor  has made  arrangements  with  certain  dealers  to  accept
instructions  by telephone  to exchange  shares of the Fund 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 the Distributor 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.

    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  Fund.  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 Fund or Agent.

                         TAX-SHELTERED RETIREMENT PLANS

    The Fund offers a Prototype  Pension and Profit  Sharing  Plan,  including a
Keogh Plan, IRA's, SEP-IRA's and IRA Rollover Accounts,  401(k) Salary Reduction
Plans, Section 457 Deferred Compensation Plans 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 Fund intends to pay quarterly dividends from investment income after the
close of each quarter, if earned and as declared by its Board of Directors.  The
Board of Directors  may, at its  discretion,  elect to retain or declare and pay
distributions from any realized security profits.

    Any  dividends  and  distribution  payments  will be reinvested at net asset
value,  without sales charge,  in additional  full and fractional  shares of the
Fund  unless and until the  shareholder  notifies  the Agent in writing  that he
wants to receive his  payments  in cash.  This  request  must be received by the
Agent at least seven days before the dividend  record date.  Upon receipt by the
Agent of such written  notice,  all further  payments will be made in cash until
written  notice to the contrary is received.  An account of such shares owned by
each  shareholder will be maintained by the Agent.  Shareholders  whose accounts
are maintained by the Agent will have the same rights as other shareholders with
respect to shares so registered (see "How to Purchase Shares-The Open Account").

                                DISTRIBUTION PLAN

    The Board of  Directors  of the Fund has  adopted a  Distribution  Plan (the
"Plan") in accordance with Rule 12b-1 under the Investment  Company Act of 1940,
after having concluded that there is a reasonable  likelihood that the Plan will
benefit the Fund and its  shareholders.  The Plan provides that the Fund may pay
distribution fees, including payments to the Distributor,  at an annual rate not
to exceed 0.25% of its average daily net assets for distribution services.

    Distribution  payments will be made as follows:  The Fund either directly or
through the Adviser, may make payments periodically (i) to the Distributor or to
any  broker-dealer (a "Broker") who is registered under the Securities  Exchange
Act of 1934  and a  member  in good  standing  of the  National  Association  of
Securities  Dealers,  Inc. and who has entered into a Selected Dealer  Agreement
with  the  Distributor,  (ii) to  other  persons  or  organizations  ("Servicing
Agents") who have entered into  shareholder  processing  and service  agreements
with the Adviser or with the  Distributor,  with respect to Fund shares owned by
shareholders  for which  such  Broker is the


                                       10

<PAGE>

dealer or holder of record or such servicing agent has a servicing relationship,
or (iii) for expenses associated with distribution of Fund shares, including the
compensation of the sales personnel of the Distributor; payments of no more than
an effective  annual rate of 0.25%,  or such lesser  amounts as the  Distributor
determines  appropriate.  Payments  may  also be made  for any  advertising  and
promotional  expenses relating to selling efforts,  including but not limited to
the  incremental  costs of  printing,  prospectuses,  statements  of  additional
information,  annual  reports and other  periodic  reports for  distribution  to
persons  who are not  shareholders  of the  Fund;  the  costs of  preparing  and
distributing  any  other   supplemental   sales  literature;   costs  of  radio,
television,  newspaper  and  other  advertising;   telecommunications  expenses,
including  the cost of  telephones,  telephone  lines and  other  communications
equipment,  incurred by or for the  Distributor in carrying out its  obligations
under the  Distribution  Agreement.  LMC, at no additional cost to the Fund, may
pay to  Shareholder  Service  Agents,  additional  amounts from past profits for
administrative services.

                                   TAX MATTERS

    The Fund intends to qualify as a regulated  investment company by satisfying
the  requirements  under  Subchapter M of the 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 Fund'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 Fund  will not be  subject  to
federal income tax or the 4% excise tax.

    Distributions  by the Fund of its net investment  income and the excess,  if
any, of its net short-term  capital gain over its net long-term capital loss are
taxable to shareholders as ordinary income.  These  distributions are treated as
dividends  for  federal  income  tax  purposes,  but in any year  only a portion
thereof (which cannot exceed the aggregate  amount of qualifying  dividends from
domestic  corporations received by the Fund during the year) may qualify for the
70% dividends-received deduction for corporate shareholders.  Because the Fund's
investment  income may include interest and dividends from foreign  corporations
and the Fund may have short-term  capital gains,  less than 100% of the ordinary
income  dividends  paid by the  Fund  may  qualify  for  the  dividends-received
deduction. Distributions by the Fund of the excess, if any, of its net long-term
capital gain over its net short-term capital loss are designated as capital gain
dividends and are taxable to shareholders as long-term capital gains, regardless
of the length of time the shareholder held his shares.

    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 Fund. In general, distributions by the Fund 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 Fund 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 Fund 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.

    Any loss  realized  upon a taxable  disposition  of shares within six months
from the date of their  purchase will be treated as a long-term  capital loss to
the extent of any  capital  gain  dividends  received on such  shares.  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 Fund 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 distributions and redemption
payments  made by the  Fund.  In order  to avoid  this  back-up  withholding,  a
shareholder must provide the Fund 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


                                       11

only, a prospective  shareholder should also review the more detailed discussion
of federal income tax  considerations  relevant to the Fund 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 Fund,  including the  application of state and local taxes
which may differ from the federal income tax consequences described above.

                             PERFORMANCE CALCULATION

    The Fund will  calculate  performance  on a total  return  basis for various
periods.  The total return basis combines  principal and dividend income changes
for the periods shown. Principal changes are based on the difference between the
beginning and closing net asset values for the period and assume reinvestment of
dividends  paid by the Fund.  Dividends  are  comprised of net realized  capital
gains and net investment income.

    Performance will vary from time to time and past results are not necessarily
representative of future results.  It should be remembered that performance is a
function of portfolio  management in selecting the type and quality of portfolio
securities and is affected by operating expenses.

    Comparative  performance  information  may be  used  from  time  to  time in
advertising  or  marketing  of the Fund's  shares,  including  data from  Lipper
Analytical  Services,  Inc.  or  major  market  indices  such as the  Dow  Jones
Industrial  Average Index and Standard & Poor's 500 Composite Stock Price Index.
Such  comparative  performance  information  will be stated in the same terms in
which the comparative data and indices are stated.

    The Fund is an open end, diversified management investment company. The Fund
was originally  organized as a New Jersey  corporation on February 11, 1959 with
10,000,000  shares of capital stock,  $1.00 par value. The Fund reorganized as a
corporation  under the laws of the State of Maryland on May 11, 1988.  The Fund,
formerly  known as Lexington  Research  Fund,  Inc.  adopted its present name on
April 22, 1991. The Fund has authorized  capital of 500,000,000 shares of common

the


                                       12

Fund's net assets upon liquidation.  All shares, when issued, are fully paid and
non-assessable.  There are no preemptive,  conversion or exchange  rights.  Fund
shares do not have  cumulative  voting rights and, as such,  holders of at least
50% of the shares voting for Directors can elect all Directors and the remaining
shareholders would not be able to elect any Directors.

    The Fund  will not  normally  hold  annual  shareholder  meetings  except as
required by Maryland  General  Corporation Law or the Investment  Company Act of
1940.  However,  meetings  of  shareholders  may be  called  at any  time by the
Secretary upon the written request of shareholders  holding in the aggregate not
less than 25% of the outstanding  shares,  such request  specifying the purposes
for which such meeting is to be called. In addition, the Directors will promptly
call a meeting of  shareholders  for the purpose of voting upon the  question of
removal of any Director when requested to do so in writing by the  recordholders
of not less than 10% of the  Fund's  outstanding  shares.  The Fund will  assist
shareholders in any such communication between shareholders and Directors.

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

                   INVESTMENT POLICY AND RESTRICTIONS

     The Fund's principal investment objective is long term appreciation
of capital.  Income return is a secondary objective.  The Fund shall not:
(i) issue senior securities; (ii) underwrite securities of other issuers;
(iii) purchase or sell real estate, commodity contracts or commodities
(however, the Fund may purchase interests in real estate investment trusts
whose securities are registered under the Securities Act of 1933 and are
readily marketable); (iv) make loans to other persons except (a) through the
purchase of a portion or portions of publicly distributed bonds, notes,
debentures and evidences of indebtedness authorized by its ivestment policy,
or (b) through investments in "repurchase agreements" (which are
arrangements under which the Fund acquires a debt security subject to an
obligation of the seller to repurchase it at a fixed price within a short
period), provided that no more than 10% of the Fund's assets may be invested
in repurchase agreements which mature in more than seven days; (v) purchase
the securities of another investment company or investment trust except in
the open market where no profit results to a sponsor or dealer, other than
the customary broker's commission; (vi) purchase any security on margin or
effect a short sale of a security; (vii) buy securities from or sell
securities to any of its officers and directors of the investment adviser
or principal distributor as principal; (viii) contract to sell any security
or evidence of interest therein except to the extent that the same shall be
owned by the Fund; (ix) retain securities of an issuer when one or more of
the officers and directors of the Fund or the investment adviser or a person
owning more than 10% of the stock of either, own beneficially more than 0.5%
of the securities of such issuer and the persons owning more than 0.5% of
such securities together own beneficially more than 5% of the securities of
such issuer; (x) invest more than 5% of the value of its total assets in the
securities of any one issuer nor acquire more than 10% of the outstanding
voting securities of any one issuer; (xi) invest in companies for the
purpose of exercising management or  control; or (xii) concentrate its
investments in a particular industry; thus the Fund will not purchase a
security if the immediate effect of such purchase would be to increase the
Fund's holdings in such industry above 25% of the Fund's assets.

     The Fund shareholder vote required for modification of its investment
policies or restrictions is the lesser of: (a) 67% or more of the voting
securities present at a meeting if the holders of more than 50% are present
or represented by proxy; or (b) more than 50% of the voting securities.

     In addition to the above fundamental investment restrictions, the Fund
has undertaken not to: a) invest an aggregate of more than 5% of its total
assets in the securities of unseasoned issuers and equity securities of
issuers which are not readily marketable; b) purchase any class of
securities of an issuer if such purchase would cause the Fund to own at the
time of the purchase more than 10% of any such class of securities of an
issuer; c) invest in puts, calls, straddles, spreads, and any combination
thereof; d) invest in interests in oil, gas or other mineral exploration or
development programs; or e) pledge, mortgage or hypothecate the assets of
the Fund to an extent greater than 15% of the gross assets of the Fund taken
at cost.

     The Fund has authority to borrow money from a bank not in excess of
the lesser of: (a) 5% of the gross assets of the Fund at the current market
value at the time of such borrowing; or (b) 10% of the gross assets of the
Fund taken at cost.  Any such borrowing may be undertaken only as a
temporary measure for extraordinary or emergency purposes.  This borrowing
power has not been exercised by the Fund's management.

     Although the Fund has the right to pledge, mortgage or hypothecate its
assets, in order to comply with a state statute, the Fund will not, as a
matter of operating policy while offering shares in such state, pledge,
mortgage or hypothecate its portfolio securities to the extent that at any
time the percentage of pledged securities will exceed 10% of the offering
price of the Fund's shares.

                                                                          
                                      2
<PAGE>
                                                                          
           

     The Fund's investment portfolio may include repurchase agreements
("repos") with banks and dealers in U.S. Government securities.  A
repurchase agreement involves the purchase by the Fund of an investment
contract from a bank or a dealer in U.S. Government securities which
contract is secured by debt securities whose value is equal to or greater
than the value of the repurchase agreement including the agreed upon
interest.  The agreement provides that the institution will repurchase the
underlying securities at an agreed upon time and price.  The total amount
received on repurchase would exceed the price paid by the Fund, reflecting
an agreed upon rate of interest for the period from the date of the
repurchase agreement to the settlement date, and would not be related to the
interest rate on the underlying securities.  The difference between the
total amount to be received upon the repurchase of the securities and the
price paid by the Fund upon their acquisition is accrued daily as interest. 
If the institution defaults on the repurchase agreement, the Fund 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 Fund may be delayed or limited and the Fund may incur
additional costs.  In such case the Fund will be subject to risks associated
with changes in the market value of the collateral securities.  The Fund
intends to limit repurchase agreements to transactions with institutions
believed by LMC to present minimal credit risk.  The 5% diversification
limitation set forth in subparagraph (x) above does not apply to obligations
issued or guaranteed as to principal and interest by the United States
Government, nor does it apply to bank certificates of deposit, which are not
classified by the Fund as securities for the purposes of this limitation.


           INVESTMENT ADVISER, DISTRIBUTOR  AND ADMINISTRATOR

     LMC, P.O. Box 1515/Park 80 West Plaza Two, Saddle Brook, N.J. 07663,
is the investment adviser to the Fund, and, as such, advises and makes
recommendations to the Fund with respect to its investments and investments
policies.

     LMC is paid an investment advisory fee at the annual rate of 0.75% of
the net assets of the Fund up to $100 million; 0.60% of such value in excess
of $100 million up to $150 million; 0.50% of such value in excess of $150
million up to $250 million; and 0.40% of such value in excess of $250
million.  This fee is computed on the basis of the Fund's daily net assets
and is payable on the last business day of each month.

     Under the terms of the advisory agreement LMC also pays the Fund's
expenses for office rent, utilities, telephone, furniture and supplies
utilized for the Fund's principal office and the salaries and payroll
expense of officers and directors of the Fund who are employees of LMC or
its affiliates in carrying out its duties under the investment advisory
agreement.  The Fund pays all its other expenses, including custodian and
transfer agent 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 directors' fees, and furnishes LFD, at
printers overrun cost paid by LFD, such copies of its prospectus, annual,
semi-annual and other reports and shareholder communication as may be
reasonably required for sales purposes.

     LMC must also reimburse the Fund to the extent that all of the Fund's
other expenses (including the investment advisory fee) exclusive of interest
and taxes exceeding 2.5% of the first $30 million of the Fund's average
daily net assets, plus 2.0% of the next $70 million, plus 1.5% of the Fund's
average daily net assets of $100 million.  In the event that the Fund's
expenses exceed such limitation at any month end, the investment advisory
fee paid by the Fund for such month is reduced accordingly.  For the fiscal
year ended December 31, 1994 no expense reimbursement was required.

<PAGE>
                                                                          
               
     
     LMC's services are provided and its investment advisory fee is paid
pursuant to an agreement which will automatically terminate if assigned and
which may be terminated by either party upon 60 days' notice.  The terms of
the agreement and any renewal thereof must be approved annually by a
majority of the Fund's Board of Directors, including a majority of directors
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
Fund transaction, LMC believes that the ability of the Fund to participate
in combined transactions may generally produce better executions overall.

thereof.  As of April 3, 1995, all officers and directors of the Fund as a
group owned of record and beneficially less than 1% of the capital stock of
the Fund.

to, maintaining general ledger accounts, regulatory compliance, preparation
of financial information for semiannual and annual reports, preparing
registration statements, calculating net asset values, shareholder

Company Inc., a Delaware corporation with offices at 80 Maiden Lane, New
York, NY  10038.  Descendants of Lunsford Richardson, Sr., their spouses,
trusts and other related entities have a majority voting control of
outstanding shares of Piedmont Management Company Inc.

     LFD also serves as distributor for Fund shares under a Distribution

              PORTFOLIO TURNOVER AND BROKERAGE ALLOCATIONS

     In the selection of various securities, long-term potential will take
precedence over short term market fluctuations.  While management maintains
the flexibility to sell portfolio securities regardless of how long they
have been held by the Fund, it is anticipated that the Fund's annual
portfolio turnover rate will not exceed 100%.  A rate of 100% could occur
for example if all of the securities held by the Fund were replaced within
a period of one year.  High portfolio turnover rates can result in
corresponding increases in brokerage costs.

     Portfolio turnover is calculated by dividing the dollar value of the
portfolio purchases or sales during the year, whichever is less, by the
securities or short term notes.  The turnover rate for each of the last
three fiscal years was: 1992, 88.13%; 1993, 93.90% and 1994, 63.04%.

     The Fund's foremost consideration in selecting a broker is to obtain
the best price and execution of orders.  From time to time, the Fund may
seek executions of stock exchange listed stocks on markets other than the
stock exchanges on a net or commission basis.  In over-the-counter
transactions, orders are placed with the principal market maker for the
security being purchased or sold, unless a better price could be obtained
by placing the order with another broker.

     Persons responsible for brokerage allocation are not obligated to
obtain the least expensive execution.  The commission paid to a broker is
only part of the overall cost of an execution and accordingly, the Fund does
not intend to apply a rigid commission formula in determining execution
costs.  The Fund shall not pay an exchange member, broker or dealer a
commission for effecting a securities transaction in excess of the amount
of commission another member, broker or dealer would have charged in
effecting that transaction unless LMC, in connection with such transaction,
shall make a good faith determination that the amount of commission charged
was reasonable in relation to the value of the brokerage and research
services provided by such member, broker or dealer, viewed in terms of
either that particular transaction or the Fund's overall transactions.

     Brokerage transactions for the Fund have not been allocated to brokers
affiliated with Fund officers or directors or its investment adviser. 
Brokerage commissions paid for each of the last three fiscal years were: 
1992 $348,298; 1993, $406,084 and 1994, $209,559.


                     TAX SHELTERED RETIREMENT PLANS

     The Fund 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 the Distributor 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"). 
Married investors filing a joint return neither of whom is an active
participant in an employer sponsored retirement plan, or who have an
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 IRA's) annual
deductible IRA contribution.  For adjusted gross incomes over $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 non-deductible contribution to their IRA to the extent a
deductible contribution is not allowed.  Federal income tax on accumulations
earned on non-deductible 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 Fund.

                                                                          
                                      5
<PAGE>

     The minimum initial investment to establish a tax-sheltered plan
through the Fund is $250 for both Keogh Plans and IRA Plans.  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 Fund makes available
a Prototype Defined Contribution Pension Plan and a Prototype Profit Sharing
Plan.

     All purchases and redemptions of Fund shares pursuant to any one of
the Fund'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 Fund
through any of these plans.  An investor participating in any of the Fund's
special plans has no obligation to continue to invest in the Fund and may
terminate the Plan with the Fund 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
Fund; however, each IRA Plan is subject to an annual maintenance fee of
$10.00 charged by the Agent.


             DIVIDEND, DISTRIBUTION AND REINVESTMENT POLICY

     The Fund intends to pay quarterly dividends from investment income
after the close of each quarter, if earned and as declared by its Board of
Directors.  The Board of Directors may, at its discretion, elect to retain
or declare and pay distributions from any realized security profits.

     Any dividends and distribution payments will be reinvested at net
asset value, without sales charge, in additional full and fractional shares
of the Fund unless and until the shareholder notifies State Street Bank and
Trust Company (the "Agent") in writing that he wants to receive his payments
in cash.  This request must be received by the Agent at least seven days
before the dividend record date.  Upon receipt by the Agent of such written
notice, all further payments will be made in cash until written notice to
the contrary is received.  An account of such shares owned by each
shareholder will be maintained by the Agent.  

     Shareholders whose accounts are maintained by the Agent will have the
same rights as other shareholders with respect to shares so registered (see
"How to Purchase Shares - The Open Account" in the Prospectus).

<PAGE>
                          DISTRIBUTION PLAN

     The Fund has adopted a Distribution Plan (the "Plan") in accordance
with Rule 12b-1 under the Investment Company Act of 1940, which provides
that the Fund may pay distribution fees including payments to the
Distributor, at an annual rate not to exceed 0.25% of its average daily net
assets for distribution services.

     Distribution payments will be made as follows:  The Fund either
directly or through the Adviser, may make payments periodically (i) to the
Distributor or to any broker-dealer (a "Broker") who is registered under the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and a member in good standing of the
National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. and who has entered into
a Selected Dealer Agreement with the Distributor, (ii) to other persons or
organizations ("Servicing Agents") who have entered into shareholder
processing and service agreements with the Adviser or with the Distributor,
with respect to Fund shares owned by shareholders for which such Broker is
the dealer or holder of record or such servicing agent has a servicing
relationship, or (iii) for expenses associated with distribution of Fund
shares, including the compensation of the sales personnel of the
Distributor; payments of no more than an effective annual rate of 0.25%, or
such lesser amounts as the Distributor determines appropriate.  Payments may
also be made for any advertising and promotional expenses relating to
selling efforts, including but not limited to the incremental costs of
printing prospectuses, statements of additional information, annual reports
and other periodic reports for distribution to persons who are not
shareholders of the Fund; the costs of preparing and distributing any other
supplemental sales literature; costs of radio, television, newspaper and
other advertising; telecommunications expenses, including the cost of
telephones, telephone lines and other communications equipment, incurred by
or for the Distributor in carrying out its obligations under the
Distribution Agreement.

     Quarterly, in each year that this Plan remains in effect, the Fund's
Treasurer shall prepare and furnish to the Directors of the Fund a written
report, complying with the requirements of Rule 12b-1, setting forth the
amounts expended by the Fund under the Plan and purposes for which such
expenditures were made.

     The Plan shall become effective upon approval of the Plan, the form
of Selected Dealer Agreement and the form of Shareholder Service Agreement,
by the majority votes of both (a) the Fund's Directors and the Qualified
Directors (as defined below), cast in person at a meeting called for the
purpose of voting on the Plan and (b) the outstanding voting securities of
the Fund, as defined in Section 2(a)(42) of the 1940 Act.

     The Plan shall remain in effect for one year from its adoption date
and may be continued thereafter if this Plan and all related agreements are
approved at least annually a majority vote of the Directors of the Fund,
including a majority of the Qualified Directors cast in person at a meeting
called for the purpose of voting on such Plan and agreements.  This Plan may
not be amended in order to increase materially the amount to be spent for
distribution assistance without shareholder approval.  All material
amendments to this Plan must be approved by a vote of the Directors of the
Fund, and of the Qualified Directors (as hereinafter defined), cast in
person at a meeting called for the purpose of voting thereon.

     The Plan may be terminated at any time by a majority vote of the
Directors who are not interested persons (as defined in Section 2(a)(19) of
the 1940 Act) of the Fund and have no direct or indirect financial interest
in the operation of the Plan or in any agreements related to the Plan (the
"Qualified Directors") or by vote of a majority of the outstanding voting
securities of the Fund, as defined in Section 2(a)(42) of the 1940 Act.

     While this Plan shall be in effect, the selection and nomination of
the "non-interested" Directors of the Fund shall be committed to the
discretion of the Qualified Directors then in office.

                              TAX MATTERS

     The following is only a summary of certain additional tax
considerations generally affecting the Fund 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 Fund 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 Fund 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 Fund 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 Fund 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 Fund
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 Fund 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 Fund 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.

                                                                          
                                      8
<PAGE>
     In general, gain or loss recognized by the Fund 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 Fund 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 Fund held the debt obligation.  In
addition, under the rules of Code Section 988, gain or loss recognized on
the disposition of a debt obligation denominated in a foreign currency or
an option with respect thereto (but only to the extent attributable to
changes in foreign currency exchange rates), and gain or loss recognized on
the disposition of a foreign currency forward contract, futures contract,
option or similar financial instrument, or of foreign currency itself,
except for regulated futures contracts or non-equity options subject to Code
Section 1256 (unless the Fund elects otherwise), will generally be treated
as ordinary income or loss.

     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 Fund
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 Fund's taxable year, at least 50% of the value of the Fund'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 Fund has not invested more than 5% of the value of the Fund's
total assets in securities of such issuer and as to which the Fund 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 Fund controls and which are engaged in the same or similar
trades or businesses.  
     If for any taxable year the Fund 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
Fund'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).
                                                                          
                                       9
<PAGE>

     The Fund 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 Fund may in certain
circumstances be required to liquidate portfolio investments to make
sufficient distributions to avoid excise tax liability.


Fund Distributions

     The Fund 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 qualify for the 70% dividends-
received deduction for corporate shareholders only to the extent discussed
below.

     The Fund may either retain or distribute to shareholders its net
capital gain for each taxable year.  The Fund currently intends to
distribute any such amounts.  If net capital gain is distributed and
designated as a capital gain dividend, it will be taxable to shareholders
as long-term capital gain, regardless of the length of time the shareholder
has held his shares or whether such gain was recognized by the Fund prior
to the date on which the shareholder acquired his shares.  

     Conversely, if the Fund elects to retain its net capital gain, the
Fund will be taxed thereon (except to the extent of any available capital
loss carryovers) at the 35% corporate tax rate.  If the Fund elects to
retain its net capital gain, it is expected that the Fund also will elect
to have shareholders of record on the last day of its taxable year treated
as if each received a distribution of his pro rata share of such gain, with
the result that each shareholder will be required to report his pro rata
share of such gain on his tax return as long-term capital gain, will receive
a refundable tax credit for his pro rata share of tax paid by the Fund on
the gain, and will increase the tax basis for his shares by an amount equal
to the deemed distribution less the tax credit.

     Ordinary income dividends paid by the Fund with respect to a taxable
year will qualify for the 70% dividends-received deduction generally
available to corporations (other than corporations, such as S corporations,
which are not eligible for the deduction) to the extent of the amount of
qualifying dividends received by the Fund from domestic corporations for the
taxable year.  A dividend received by the Fund will not be treated as a
qualifying dividend (1) if it has been received with respect to any share
of stock that the Fund has held for less than 46 days (91 days in the case
of certain preferred stock), excluding for this purpose under the rules of
Code Section 246(c)(3) and (4):  (i) any day more than 45 days (or 90 days
in the case of certain preferred stock) after the date on which the stock
becomes ex-dividend and (ii) any period during which the Fund has an option
to sell, is under a contractual obligation to sell, has made and not closed
a short sale of, is the grantor of a deep-in-the-money or otherwise
nonqualified option to buy, or has otherwise diminished its risk of loss by
holding other positions with respect to, such (or substantially identical)
stock; (2) to the extent that the Fund is under an obligation (pursuant to
a short sale or otherwise) to make related payments with respect to
positions in substantially similar or related property; or (3) to the extent
the stock on which the dividend is paid is treated as debt-financed under
the rules of Code Section 246A.  Moreover, the dividends-received deduction
for a corporate shareholder may be disallowed or reduced (1) if the
corporate shareholder fails to satisfy the foregoing requirements with
respect to its shares of the Fund or (2) by application of Code Section
246(b) which in general limits the dividends-received deduction to 70% of
the shareholder's taxable income (determined without regard to the
dividends-received deduction and certain other items). 
    
                                                                          
                                    10
<PAGE>

     Alternative minimum tax ("AMT") is imposed in addition to, but only
to the extent it exceeds, the regular tax and is computed at a maximum
marginal rate of 28% for noncorporate taxpayers and 20% for corporate
taxpayers on the excess of the taxpayer's alternative minimum taxable income
("AMTI") over an exemption amount.  In addition, under the Superfund
Amendments and Reauthorization Act of 1986, a tax is imposed for taxable
years beginning after 1986 and before 1996 at the rate of 0.12% on the
excess of a corporate taxpayer's AMTI (determined without regard to the
deduction for this tax and the AMT net operating loss deduction) over $2
million.  For purposes of the corporate AMT and the environmental superfund
tax (which are discussed above), the corporate dividends-received deduction
is not itself an item of tax preference that must be added back to taxable
income or is otherwise disallowed in determining a corporation's AMTI. 
However, corporate shareholders will generally be required to take the full
amount of any dividend received from the Fund into account (without a
dividends-received deduction) in determining its adjusted current earnings,
which are used in computing an additional corporate preference item (i.e.,
75% of the excess of a corporate taxpayer's adjusted current earnings over
its AMTI (determined without regard to this item and the AMT net operating
loss deduction)) includable in AMTI.

     Investment income that may be received by the Fund from sources within
foreign countries may be subject to foreign taxes withheld at the source. 
The United States has entered into tax treaties with many foreign countries
which entitle the Fund to a reduced rate of, or exemption from, taxes on
such income.  It is impossible to determine the effective rate of foreign
tax in advance since the amount of the Fund's assets to be invested in
various countries is not known.

     Distributions by the Fund 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 Fund will be treated in the manner described
above regardless of whether such distributions are paid in cash or
reinvested in additional shares of the Fund (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 Fund reflects undistributed net investment income or recognized
capital gain net income, or unrealized appreciation in the value of the
assets of the Fund, 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
Fund 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 Fund) 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 Fund will be required in certain cases to withhold and remit to
the U.S. Treasury 31% of distributions 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 Fund that
it is not subject to backup withholding or that it is a corporation or other
"exempt recipient."

                                                                          
                                        11
<PAGE>

Sale or Redemption of Shares

     A shareholder will recognize gain or loss on the sale or redemption
of shares of the Fund 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 Fund 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 Fund
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.  However, any
capital loss arising from the sale or redemption of shares held for six
months or less will be treated as a long-term capital loss to the extent of
the amount of capital gain dividends received on such shares.  For this
purpose, the special holding period rules of Code Section 246(c)(3) and (4)
(discussed above in connection with the dividends-received deduction for
corporations) generally will apply in determining the holding period of
shares.  Long-term capital gains of noncorporate taxpayers are currently
taxed at a maximum rate 11.6% lower than the maximum rate applicable to
ordinary income.  Capital losses in any year are deductible only to the
extent of capital gains plus, in the case of a noncorporate taxpayer, $3,000
of ordinary income.


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 Fund is "effectively connected" with a U.S. trade or
business carried on by such shareholder.

     If the income from the Fund 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 Fund,
capital gain dividends and amounts retained by the Fund that are designated
as undistributed capital gains.

     If the income from the Fund is effectively connected with a U.S. trade
or business carried on by a foreign shareholder, then ordinary income
dividends, capital gain dividends, and any gains realized upon the sale of
shares of the Fund 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 Fund 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 the shareholder furnishes the Fund 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 differ 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
Fund, 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.
                                                                          
                                    12                                    
                                    
<PAGE>

     Rules of state and local taxation of ordinary income dividends and
capital gain 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 Fund.


                        PERFORMANCE CALCULATION

     For purposes of quoting and comparing the performance of the Fund to
that of other mutual fund and to other relevant market indices in
advertisements or in reports to shareholders, performance may be stated in
terms of total return.  Under the rules of the Securities and Exchange
Commission ("SEC rules"), funds advertising performance must include total
return quotes calculated according to the following formula:
                  n  
          P(1 + T)  = ERV

     Where:    P    = a hypothetical initial payment of $1000

               T    = average annual total return

               n    = number of years (1, 5 or 10)

               ERV  = ending redeemable value of a hypothetical $1,000
payment made at the beginning of the 1, 5 or 10 year periods at the end of
the 1, 5 and 10 year periods (or fractional portion thereof).

     Under the foregoing formula, the time periods used in advertising will
be based on rolling calendar quarters, updated to the last day of the most
recent quarter prior to submission of the advertising for publication, and
will cover one, five, and ten year periods or a shorter period dating from
the effectiveness of the Fund's Registration Statement.  In calculating the
ending redeemable value, all dividends and distributions by the Fund are
assumed to have been reinvested at the net asset value as described in the
Prospectus on the reinvestment dates during the period.  The total return,
or "T" in the formula above, is computed by finding the average annual
compounded rates of return over the 1, 5 and 10 year periods (or fractional
portion thereof) that would equate the initial amount invested to the ending
redeemable value.  Any recurring account charges that might in the future
be imposed by the Fund would be included at that time.  Lexington Growth and
Income Fund, Inc.'s total return for the 1,5 and 10 years ended December 31,
1994 is a follows:

                                                  Average Annual
               Period                              Annual Return  
               ------                              -------------
     1 year ended December 31, 1994                   -3.11%
     5 years ended December 31, 1994                  +6.67%
     10 years ended December 31, 1994                +11.38%

     The Fund may also from time to time include in such advertising a
total return figure that is not calculated according to the formula set
forth above in order to compare more accurately the performance of the Fund
with other measures of investment return.  For example, in comparing the
Fund's total return with data published by Lipper Analytical Services, Inc.,
or with the performance of the Standard & Poor's 500 Composite Stock Price
Index or the Dow Jones Industrial Average, the Fund calculates its aggregate
total return for the specified periods of time by assuming the reinvestment
of each dividend or other distribution at net asset value on the
reinvestment date.  Percentage increases are determined by subtracting the
initial value of the investment from the ending value and by dividing the
remainder by the beginning value.

Independent Auditors' Report
The Board of Directors and Shareholders

Lexington Growth and Income Fund, Inc.:

    We have audited the  accompanying  statements of net assets  (including  the
portfolio of  investments)  and assets and  liabilities of Lexington  Growth and
Income Fund,  Inc. as of December 31, 1994, 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  Fund'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, 1994 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  Growth and Income Fund,  Inc. as of December 31, 1994, 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.

Lexington Growth and Income Fund, Inc.
Notes to Financial Statements
December 31, 1994 and 1993


1.  Significant Accounting Policies

Lexington  Growth & Income Fund,  Inc.  (the "Fund") is an open end  diversified
management  investment  company  registered under the Investment  Company Act of
1940,  as amended.  The  following  is a summary of the  significant  accounting
policies followed by the Fund in the preparation of its financial statements:

     Securities  Security  transactions are accounted for on a trade date basis.
Realized  gains and  losses  from  security  transactions  are  reported  on the
identified  cost basis.  Investments are stated at market value based on closing
prices  reported by the exchanges on which the securities are traded on the last
business day of the period or, for over-the- counter securities,  at the average
between bid and asked prices. Short-term securities are stated at amortized cost
which approximates market value.  Securities for which market quotations are not
readily  available  and other assets are valued at fair value as  determined  by
management and approved in good faith by the Board of Directors. Dividend income
and distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Interest
income is accrued as earned.

     Distributions  Effective  January 1, 1993,  the Fund  adopted  Statement of
Position 93-2: Determination, Disclosure and Financial Statement Presentation of
Income,   Capital  Gain  and  Return  of  Capital  Distributions  by  Investment
Companies.  As of December 31, 1994, book and tax basis differences amounting to
$29,385 have been  reclassified  from  undistributed  net investment  income and
distributions  in excess of net realized  gain to  additional  paid-in  capital.
Distributions  in  excess  of net  realized  gains  reflect  temporary  book-tax
differences  arising from Internal  Revenue Code ("IRC") Excise Tax distribution
requirements  and  associated  post-October  loss  deferral  provisions,   which
effectively  allow the deferral of some net realized  capital losses to the next
tax year.

   Federal  Income  Taxes  It  is  the  Fund'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.


2.  Investment Advisory Fee and Other Transactions with Affiliate

The Fund pays an  investment  advisory fee to Lexington  Management  Corporation
("LMC") at an annual rate of 0.75% of the Fund's  average daily net assets up to
$100  million and in  decreasing  stages to 0.4% of average  daily net assets in
excess of $250 million. The investment advisory contract provides that the total
annual expenses of the Fund (including  management fees, but excluding interest,
taxes,  brokerage  commissions and  extraordinary  expenses) will not exceed the
level of expenses which the Fund is permitted to bear under the most restrictive
expense  limitation imposed by any state in which shares of the Fund are offered
for sale. No  reimbursement  was required for the year ended  December 31, 1994.
The Fund also  reimburses  LMC for certain  expenses,  including  accounting and
shareholder  servicing  costs,  which are  incurred by the Fund but paid by LMC.

3.  Distribution Plan

The Fund has a Distribution  Plan (the "Plan") which allows  payments to finance
activities  associated  with the  distribution  of the Fund's  shares.  The plan
provides  that the  Fund may pay  distribution  fees on a  reimbursement  basis,
including  payments to Lexington Fund  Distributors,  Inc.  ("LFD"),  the Fund's
distributor, in amounts not exceeding .25% per annum of the Fund's average daily
net assets.  Total  distribution  expenses for the year ended  December 31, 1994
were $118,070 which are set forth in the statement of operations.


4.  Capital Stock

Transactions in capital stock were as follows:

5.  Purchases and Sales of Investment Securities

The cost of purchases and proceeds  from sales of securities  for the year ended
December  31,  1994,  excluding  short term  securities,  were  $79,611,852  and
$95,317,835, respectively.

     At December  31,  1994  aggregate  gross  unrealized  appreciation  for all
securities  in which  there is an  excess  of value  over tax cost  amounted  to
$9,025,919 and aggregate  gross  unrealized  depreciation  for all securities in
which  there is an excess of tax cost over  value  amounted  to  $6,949,876.  

6. Investment Risks

The Fund's ability to invest in foreign securities may involve risks not present
in domestic  investments.  Since  foreign  securities  may be  denominated  in a
foreign currency and involve settlement and pay interest or dividends in foreign
currencies,  changes in the relationship of these foreign currencies to the U.S.
dollar can significantly affect the value of the investments and earnings of the
Fund.  Foreign  investments  may also  subject  the Fund to  foreign  government
exchange  restrictions,  expropriation,  taxation or other political,  social or
economic  developments,  all of which could affect the market and/or credit risk
of the investments.
