 INFORMATION SUMMARY
 
1.  WHAT IS THE FUND'S OBJECTIVE?
The Fund is a money market fund which seeks to provide high current income and
stability of principal.
 
2.  IN WHAT DOES THE FUND INVEST?
The Fund invests in a diversified portfolio of short-term U.S.
dollar-denominated money market instruments, including bank certificates of
deposit and bankers' acceptances, commercial paper and repurchase agreements,
obligations issued or guaranteed by the U.S. government or its agencies and
instrumentalities, and in bank obligations and commercial paper of foreign
issuers, with remaining maturities of thirteen months or less from the date of
purchase.
 
3.  WHAT ARE THE RISKS?
The Fund is not insured by the FDIC, and while it attempts to maintain a $1 per
share price, there are no guarantees that it will be able to do so. The Prime
Fund may purchase certificates of deposit and bankers' acceptances issued or
supported by the credit of foreign branches of domestic banks and domestic
branches of foreign banks, as well as commercial paper issued by foreign
issuers, which present greater risk than funds investing only in U.S. debt
obligations. Such risks include future political and economic developments.
 
4.  IS THE FUND APPROPRIATE FOR ME?
This Fund is appropriate for investors seeking relative safety and accessibility
of their investment. A money market fund, over time, has offered investors the
least amount of principal risk, as well as the least amount of return potential.
 
5.  WHAT ARE THE FEES OR EXPENSES?
NO LOAD or sales commission is charged to invest in the Fund or reinvest
dividends. No fees will be charged for reinvested dividends, exchanges between
other Pacific Horizon funds or redemptions from the Fund. Additionally there are
no 12b-1 fees. The operating expenses, as a percentage of average net assets,
charged directly by the Fund are described in the fee table below:
