Supplement to November 1, 1999 Citizens Funds Prospectus as Supplemented
January 4, 2000 as Supplemented March 2, 2000 as Supplemented June 16, 2000
This Supplement relates to the Citizens Small Cap Index Fund. The fund started
operations on December 28, 1999.
On page 5, under "Citizens Small Cap Index Fund - Principal Investment
Strategies," the second paragraph is deleted in its entirety and the following
is substituted:
During normal market conditions, at least 65% of the companies that make up the
Citizens Small Cap Index will have market capitalizations in the range of $50
million to $3.5 billion at the time they are selected for the Index. The fund
tries to achieve a 95% correlation, before expenses, with the performance of
the Citizens Small Cap Index. Initially, the fund will be of a relatively small
size so that it will not be practical for the fund to invest in all of the
companies that make up the Citizens Small Cap Index. Once the fund reaches a
size where it is practical to do so, the fund expects that under normal market
conditions it will maintain at least an 80% match between the fund's equity
holdings and the composition of the Citizens Small Cap Index.
On page 9, the following information is added at the end of the paragraph
entitled "Passive Investing Risk" (which begins on page 8):
For some time after it starts operations, the Citizens Small Cap Index Fund may
have a more difficult time matching the performance of the Citizens Small Cap
Index, because during that period the fund will not be invested in many of the
companies that make up the Index. In addition, the fund may delay buying some
stocks when the fund's managers believe that their market prices are inflated
as a result of temporary market factors (e.g., where the market prices
significantly exceed recent average prices). This trading approach could hurt
the fund's performance if the prices of those stocks go up and the fund buys
them at even higher prices.
On pages 18 and 20, the following replaces the information relating to the
Citizens Small Cap Index Fund contained in the tables:
