     On June 19, 1998, Pacific Horizon Funds, Inc. (the "Company") held an
annual meeting of its shareholders. At the meeting, a number of proposals were
presented to the shareholders for their approval, including the election of
directors and the approval of a number of changes to fundamental investment
objectives, policies and limitations of each of the Funds. A quorum of the
shareholders of the Company, however, was not present for the election of
directors. In addition, with respect to the Asset Allocation, Capital Income,
Aggressive Growth and Blue Chip Funds, a quorum of shareholders was not present
to act on the proposals relating to the changes in certain fundamental
investment objectives, policies and limitations. The meeting has been adjourned
until July 20, 1998. Accordingly, until shareholder approval of the proposals is
received, the prospectus is amended as follows.
 
     1.  The Asset Allocation, Capital Income, Blue Chip, and Aggressive Growth
Funds' and Blue Chip Master Portfolio's investment objectives remain fundamental
(i.e., they may not be changed without the affirmative vote of the holders of
the majority of the Fund's or Blue Chip Master Portfolio's outstanding shares
(as defined in the Investment Company Act of 1940)).
 
     2.  The investment policy of the Aggressive Growth Fund that except for
temporary defensive periods, the Aggressive Growth Fund will invest at least 65%
of its total assets in equity securities will remain fundamental until
shareholders approve its redesignation as a non-fundamental policy.
 
     3.  The investment policy that under normal market conditions the Capital
Income Fund may not invest less than 65% of its total assets in convertible
securities remains fundamental until shareholders approve its redesignation as a
non-fundamental policy.
 
     4.  The Asset Allocation Fund, Capital Income Fund, Aggressive Growth Fund
and Blue Chip Master Portfolio may not (i) invest more than 10% of their
respective total assets in illiquid securities; (ii) lend securities in excess
of 10%, 30%, 30% and 10% of their respective total assets and (iii) borrow money
in excess of 5%, 10%, 10% and 5% of their respective total assets.

annual meeting of its shareholders. At the meeting, a number of proposals were
presented to the shareholders for their approval, including the election of

Securities Fund, a quorum of shareholders was not present to act on the
proposals relating to the changes in certain fundamental investment objectives,
policies and limitations. The meeting has been adjourned until July 20, 1998.
Accordingly, until shareholder approval of the proposals is received, the

remains fundamental (i.e., they may not be changed without the affirmative vote
of the holders of the majority of the Fund's outstanding shares (as defined in
the Investment Company Act of 1940)).
 
     2.  The current investment policy that under normal market conditions, the
U.S. Government Securities Fund may not invest less than 65% of its total assets
in GNMA Certificates will remain fundamental. Once shareholder approval is
received, the U.S. Government Securities Fund investment policy will be changed
so that under normal market conditions, the U.S. Government Securities Fund may
not invest less than 65% of its total assets in securities of the U.S.
Government, its agencies, instrumentalities and sponsored entities. Such policy
will also be redesignated as non-fundamental.
 
     3.  The U.S. Government Securities Funds may not invest more than 10% of
its total assets in illiquid securities nor may it borrow money in excess of 10%
of the Fund's total assets.

      Portfolio, may:

1.    Purchase securities (except securities issued by the U.S. Government, its
      agencies or instrumentalities) if, as a result, more than 5% of its total
      assets will be invested in the securities of any one issuer or it would
      own more than 10% of the voting securities of such issuer, except that up
      to 25% of its total assets may be invested without regard to these
      limitations; and provided that all of its assets may be invested in a
      diversified, open-end management investment company, or a series thereof,
      with substantially the same investment objectives, policies and
      restrictions without regard to the limitations set forth in this
      paragraph;

2.    Pledge, mortgage or hypothecate the assets of any Fund to any extent
      greater than 10% of the value of the total assets of that Fund.

3.    Make loans to other persons, except that a Fund may make time or demand
      deposits with banks, provided that time deposits shall not have an
      aggregate value in excess of 10% of a Fund's net assets, and may purchase
      bonds, debentures or similar obligations that are publicly distributed,
      may loan portfolio securities not in excess of 10% of the value of the
      total assets of such Fund, and may enter into repurchase agreements as
      long as repurchase agreements maturing in more than seven days do not
      exceed 10% of the value of the total assets of a Fund.

4.    Purchase or sell commodities contracts, except that any Fund may purchase
      or sell futures contracts on financial instruments, such as bank
      certificates of deposit and U.S. Government securities, foreign currencies
      and stock indexes and options on any such futures if such options are
      written by other persons and if (i) the futures or options are listed on a
      national securities or commodities exchange, (ii) the aggregate premiums
      paid on all such options that are held at any time do not exceed 20% of
      the total net assets of that Fund, and (iii) the aggregate margin deposits
      required on all such futures or options thereon held at any time do not
      exceed 5% of the total assets of the Fund.

5.    Purchase any securities for any Fund that would cause more than 25% of the
      value of the Fund's total assets at the time of such purchase to be
      invested in the securities of one or more issuers conducting their
      principal activities in the same industry; provided that there is no
      limitation with respect to investments in obligations issued or guaranteed
      by the United States Government, its agencies and instrumentalities; and
      provided further that a Fund may invest all its assets in a diversified,
      open-end management investment company, or a series thereof, with
      substantially the same investment objectives, policies and restrictions as
      the Fund without regard to the limitations set forth in this paragraph.

6.    Invest the assets of any Fund in nonmarketable securities that are not
      readily marketable (including repurchase agreements maturing in more than
      seven days, securities described in limitation number 3 above, restricted
      securities, certain OTC options and securities used as cover for such
      options and stripped mortgage-backed securities) to any extent


                                       -2-
<PAGE>   8
      greater than 10% of the value of the total assets of that Fund; provided,
      however, that a Fund may invest all its assets in a diversified, open-end
      management investment company, or a series thereof with substantially the
      same investment objectives, policies and restrictions as the Fund, without
      regard to the limitations set forth in this paragraph.

7.    Borrow money for any Fund except for temporary emergency purposes and then
      only in an amount not exceeding 5% of the value of the total assets of
      that Fund. Borrowing shall, for purposes of this paragraph, include
      reverse repurchase agreements. Any borrowings, other than reverse
      repurchase agreements, will be from banks. The Company will repay all
      borrowings in any Fund before making additional investments for that Fund
      and interest paid on such borrowings will reduce income.

8.    Issue senior securities.

9.    Underwrite any issue of securities, provided, however, that a Fund may
      invest all its assets in a diversified, open-end management investment
      company, or a series thereof, having substantially the same investment
      objectives, policies and restrictions as such Fund, without regard to the
      limitations set forth in this paragraph.

10.   Purchase or sell real estate or real estate mortgage loans, but this shall

11.   Purchase on margin or sell short.

12.   Purchase or retain securities of an issuer if those members of the Board
      of the Company or the Master Investment Trust, Series I, each of whom own
      more than 1/2 of 1% of such securities, together own more than 5% of the
      securities of such issuer, provided, however, that a Fund may invest all
      its assets in a diversified, open-end management investment company, or a
      series thereof, having substantially the same investment objectives,
      policies and restrictions as such Fund, without regard to the limitations
      set forth in this paragraph.

13.   Purchase securities of any other investment company (except in connection
      with a merger, consolidation, acquisition or reorganization) if,
      immediately after such purchase, the Company (and any companies controlled
      by it) would own in the aggregate (i) more than 3% of the total
      outstanding voting stock of such investment company, (ii) securities
      issued by such investment company would have an aggregate value in excess
      of 5% of the value of the total assets of the Company, or (iii) securities
      issued by such investment company and all other investment companies would
      have an aggregate value in excess of 10% of the value of the total assets
      of the Company provided, however, that a Fund may invest all its assets in
      a diversified, open-end management investment company, or a series
      thereof, having substantially the same investment objectives, policies and
      restrictions as such Fund, without regard to the limitations set forth in
      this paragraph.

14.   Invest in or sell put, call, straddle or spread options or interests in
      oil, gas or other mineral exploration or development programs.

The Aggressive Growth Fund may not:

1.    Except for temporary defensive periods, the Aggressive Growth Fund will
      invest at least 65% of its total assets in equity securities.

2.    Purchase or sell real estate (however, the Fund may, to the extent
      appropriate to its investment objective, purchase securities issued by
      companies investing in real estate or interests therein).

3.    Underwrite the securities of other issuers.

4.    Purchase securities of companies for the purpose of exercising control.

5.    Purchase securities on margin, make short sales of securities or maintain
      a short position, except that this limitation shall not apply to
      transactions in futures contracts and related options.

6.    Acquire any other investment company or investment company security except
      in connection with a merger, consolidation, reorganization or acquisition
      of assets or as may otherwise be permitted by the Investment Company Act
      of 1940.

7.    Purchase securities of any one issuer (other than obligations issued or
      guaranteed by U.S. Government, its agencies or instrumentalities) if
      immediately thereafter more than 15% of its total assets would be invested
      in certificates of deposit or bankers' acceptances of any one bank, or
      more than 5% of its total assets would be invested in other securities of
      any one bank or the securities of any other issuer (except that up to 25%
      of the Fund's total assets may be invested without regard to this
      limitation).

      In accordance with current regulations of the Securities and Exchange
      Commission, the Aggressive Growth Fund presently intends to limit its
      investments in the securities of any single issuer to not more than 5% of
      its total assets (measured at the time of purchase), except that up to 25%
      of the Fund's total assets may be invested without regard to this
      limitation. This intention is not, however, a fundamental policy of the
      Fund.

8.    Purchase any securities which would cause 25% or more of the Fund's total
      assets at the time of purchase to be invested in the securities of one or
      more issuers conducting their principal business activities in the same
      industry, provided that (a) there is no limitation with respect to
      obligations issued or guaranteed by the U.S. Government, its agencies or
      instrumentalities; (b) wholly-owned finance companies will be considered
      to be in the industries of their parents if their activities are primarily
      related to financing the activities of the parents; and (c) the industry
      classification of utilities will be determined according 


                                       -4-
<PAGE>   10
      to their service. For example, gas, gas transmission, electric and gas,
      electric and telephone will be considered a separate industry.

9.    Borrow money or issue senior securities, except that the Fund may borrow
      from banks or enter into reverse repurchase agreements to meet redemptions
      or for other temporary purposes in amounts up to 10% of its total assets
      at the time of such borrowing; or mortgage, pledge or hypothecate any
      assets except in connection with any such borrowing and in amounts not in
      excess of the lesser of the dollar amounts borrowed or 10% of its total
      assets at the time of such borrowing; or purchase securities at any time
      after such borrowings (including reverse repurchase agreements) have been
      entered into and before they are repaid. The Fund's transactions in
      futures and related options (including the margin posted by the Fund in
      connection with such transactions) are not subject to this investment
      limitation.

10.   Make loans except that the Fund may purchase or hold debt instruments or
      enter into repurchase agreements pursuant to its investment objective and
      policies and may lend portfolio securities in an amount not exceeding 30%
      of its total assets.

11.   Purchase securities without available market quotations which cannot be
      sold without registration or the filing of a notification under Federal or
      state securities laws, enter into repurchase agreements providing for
      settlement more than seven days after notice, or purchase any other
      securities deemed illiquid by the Directors if, as a result, such
      securities and repurchase agreements would exceed 10% of the Fund's total
      value.

      The Fund intends that variable amount master demand notes with maturities
      of nine months or less, as well as any investments in securities that are
      not registered under the Securities Act of 1933 (the "1933 Act") but that
      may be purchased by institutional buyers under Rule 144A and for which a
      liquid trading market exists as determined by the Board of Directors or
      Bank of America (pursuant to guidelines adopted by the Board), will not be
      subject to this 10% limitation on illiquid securities.

12.   Purchase or sell commodity contracts, or invest in oil, gas or mineral
      exploration or development programs, except that the Fund may, to the
      extent appropriate to its investment objective, purchase publicly traded
      securities of companies engaging in whole or in part in such activities,
      and may enter into futures contract and related options.

      The U.S. Government Securities Fund and Capital Income Fund may not:

1.    Purchase the securities of any issuer if as a result more than 5% of the
      value of the Fund's total assets would be invested in the securities of
      such issuer, except that up to 25% of the value of the Fund's total assets
      may be invested without regard to this 5% limitation. Securities issued or
      guaranteed by the United States Government or its agencies or
      instrumentalities are not subject to this investment limitation.


                                       -5-
<PAGE>   11
2.    Underwrite any issue of securities, except to the extent that the purchase
      of securities directly from the issuer thereof in accordance with the
      Fund's investment objective, policies and limitations may be deemed to be
      underwriting.

3.    Purchase or sell real estate, except that a Fund may, to the extent
      appropriate to its investment objective, invest in GNMA Certificates and
      securities issued by companies which invest in real estate or interests
      therein.

4.    Purchase securities on margin (except for such short-term credits as may
      be necessary for the clearance of transactions), make short sales of
      securities or maintain a short position.

5.    Write or sell puts, calls, straddles, spreads or combinations thereof,
      except that the Funds may write covered call options.

6.    Purchase or sell commodities or commodity contracts, or invest in oil, gas
      or mineral exploration or development programs, except that: (a) a Fund
      may, to the extent appropriate to its investment objective, invest in
      securities issued by companies which purchase or sell commodities or
      commodity contracts or which invest in such programs; and (b) a Fund may
      purchase and sell futures contracts and options on futures contracts.

7.    Purchase securities of other investment companies, except (a) securities
      of money-market funds, to the extent permitted by the Investment Company
      Act of 1940, or (b) in connection with a merger, consolidation,
      acquisition or reorganization.

8.    Purchase any securities which would cause 25% or more of the value of
      its total assets at the time of such purchase to be invested in the
      securities of one or more issuers conducting their principal business
      activities in the same industry; provided, however, that (a) there is
      no limitation with respect to investments in obligations issued or
      guaranteed by the federal government and its agencies and
      instrumentalities; (b) each utility (such as gas, gas transmission,
      electric and telephone service) will be considered a single industry
      for purposes of this policy; and (c) wholly-owned finance companies
      will be considered to be in the industries of their parents if their
      activities are primarily related to financing the activities of their
      parents.

9.    Purchase securities of any issuer if as a result the Fund will own more
      than 10% of the voting securities of such issuer.

10.   Borrow money except from banks for temporary purposes and in an amount
      not exceeding 10% of the value of the Fund's total assets, issue senior
      securities (as defined in the Investment Company Act of 1940) or
      mortgage, pledge or hypothecate any assets except in connection with
      any such borrowing and in amounts not in excess of the lesser of the
      dollar amounts borrowed or 10% of the value of the Fund's total assets
      at the time of such borrowing.  Borrowing may take the form of sale of
      portfolio securities accompanied by a simultaneous agreement as to
      their repurchase.  (This borrowing provision is not for investment
      leverage, but solely to facilitate management of the Fund's 


                                       -6-
<PAGE>   12
      portfolio by enabling the Fund to meet redemption requests when the
      liquidation of portfolio securities is deemed to be disadvantageous or
      inconvenient. The Fund will not purchase any securities while borrowings
      are outstanding. Interest paid on borrowed funds will reduce the net
      investment income of the Fund.) For the purpose of this restriction,
      collateral or escrow arrangements with respect to margin for futures
      contracts are not deemed to be a pledge of assets, and neither such
      arrangements nor the purchase of futures contracts are deemed to be the
      issuance of a senior security.

11.   Make loans, except that the Fund may purchase or hold debt obligations in
      accordance with its investment objective, policies and limitations; may
      enter into repurchase agreements with respect to securities; and may lend
      portfolio securities against collateral consisting of cash or securities
      of the U.S. Government and its agencies and its agencies and
      instrumentalities which are consistent with its permitted investments.

12.   Invest more than 10% of the value of its total assets in securities with
      legal or contractual restrictions on resale (including repurchase
      agreements with terms greater than seven days over the-counter options and
      the securities covering such options.)

      The Fund intends that investments in securities that are not registered
      under the 1933 Act but may be purchased by institutional buyers under Rule
      144A and for which a liquid trading market exists as determined by the
      Board of Directors or Bank of America (pursuant to guidelines adopted by
      the Board), will not be subject to this 10% limitation on illiquid
      securities.

13.   Purchase securities of any issuer which has been in continuous operation
      for less than three years (including operations of its predecessors),
      except obligations issued or guaranteed by the U.S.
      government or its agencies.

IN ADDITION:

1.    Under normal market conditions the U.S. Government Securities Fund may not
      invest less than 65% of its total assets in GNMA Certificates.

2.    Under normal market conditions the Capital Income Fund may not invest less
      than 65% of its total assets in Convertible Securities. For purposes of
      this limitation, securities acquired upon the conversion of Convertible
      Securities are deemed to be Convertible Securities for a period of two
      months after the effective date of their conversion.

                         SUPPLEMENT DATED JULY 1, 1998
      TO THE STATEMENT OF ADDITIONAL INFORMATION DATED JULY 1, 1998 FOR THE
                              ASSET ALLOCATION FUND


      On June 19, 1998, Pacific Horizon Funds, Inc. (the "Company") held an
annual meeting of its shareholders. At the meeting, a number of proposals were
presented to the shareholders for their approval, including the election of
directors and the approval of a number of changes to fundamental investment
objectives, policies and limitations of each of the Funds. A quorum of the
shareholders of the Company, however, was not present to act on the proposal for
the election of directors. In addition, with respect to the Asset Allocation
Fund, a quorum of the shareholders was not present to act on the proposals
relating to the changes in certain fundamental investment objectives, policies
and limitations. The meeting has been adjourned until July 20, 1998.
Accordingly, until shareholder approval of the proposals is received, the
Statement of Additional Information is amended as follows.

      1. Mr. Edward S. Bottum and Mr. William P. Carmichael are not directors of
the Company. In addition, Mr. Kermit O. Hanson will remain as a director until
his successor is elected and qualified.

      Since 1988, Mr. Hanson has served as Vice Chairman of the Advisory Board
of the Pacific Rim Bankers Program (a non-profit educational institution) and
was its Executive Director from 1977 to 1988. Since 1981, he has been Dean
Emeritus of the Graduate School of Business Administration, University of
Washington and served as its Dean from 1964 to 1981. Mr. Hanson is a Director of
the Washington Federal Savings and Loan Association and was a Trustee of
Seafirst Retirement Funds, a registered investment company, from 1993 to 1997.
Mr. Hanson is 81 years old, and his address is 17760 14th Avenue, N.W.,
Shoreline, Washington 98177.

      2. Until shareholder approval is received to designate them as
non-fundamental, the Asset Allocation Fund's investment objective remains
fundamental (i.e., they may not be changed without the affirmative vote of the
holders of the majority of the Fund's outstanding shares (as defined in the
Investment Company Act of 1940)).

      3. Until shareholder approval is received to change the fundamental
investment limitations, the Asset Allocation Fund's fundamental investment
objectives and limitations are as follows:

      THE ASSET ALLOCATION FUND MAY NOT:

1.    Purchase securities (except securities issued by the U.S. Government,
      its agencies or instrumentalities) if, as a result, more than 5% of its
      total assets will be invested in the securities of any one issuer or it
      would own more than 10% of the voting securities of such issuer, except
      that up to 25% of its total assets may be invested without regard to
      these limitations; and provided that all of its assets may be invested
      in a diversified, open-end management investment company, or a series
      thereof, with substantially the same 
<PAGE>   14
      investment objectives, policies and restrictions without regard to the
      limitations set forth in this paragraph;

2.    Pledge, mortgage or hypothecate the assets of the Fund to any extent
      greater than 10% of the value of the total assets of the Fund.

3.    Make loans to other persons, except that a Fund may make time or demand
      deposits with banks, provided that time deposits shall not have an
      aggregate value in excess of 10% of a Fund's net assets, and may
      purchase bonds, debentures or similar obligations that are publicly
      distributed, may loan portfolio securities not in excess of 10% of the
      value of the total assets of such Fund, and may enter into repurchase
      agreements as long as repurchase agreements maturing in more than seven
      days do not exceed 10% of the value of the total assets of a Fund.

4.    Purchase or sell commodities contracts, except that the Fund may
      purchase or sell futures contracts on financial instruments, such as
      bank certificates of deposit and U.S. Government securities, foreign
      currencies and stock indexes and options on any such futures if such
      options are written by other persons and if (i) the futures or options
      are listed on a national securities or commodities exchange, (ii) the
      aggregate premiums paid on all such options that are held at any time
      do not exceed 20% of the total net assets of the Fund, and (iii) the
      aggregate margin deposits required on all such futures or options
      thereon held at any time do not exceed 5% of the total assets of the
      Fund.

5.    Purchase any securities for the Fund that would cause more than 25% of
      the value of the Fund's total assets at the time of such purchase to be
      invested in the securities of one or more issuers conducting their
      principal activities in the same industry; provided that there is no
      limitation with respect to investments in obligations issued or
      guaranteed by the United States Government, its agencies and
      instrumentalities; and provided further that a Fund may invest all its
      assets in a diversified, open-end management investment company, or a
      series thereof, with substantially the same investment objectives,
      policies and restrictions as the Fund without regard to the limitations
      set forth in this paragraph.

6.    Invest the assets of the Fund in nonmarketable securities that are not
      readily marketable (including repurchase agreements maturing in more
      than seven days, securities described in limitation number 3 above,
      restricted securities, certain OTC options and securities used as cover
      for such options and stripped mortgage-backed securities) to any extent
      greater than 10% of the value of the total assets of the Fund;
      provided, however, that a Fund may invest all its assets in a
      diversified, open-end management investment company, or a series
      thereof with substantially the same investment objectives, policies and
      restrictions as the Fund, without regard to the limitations set forth
      in this paragraph.

7.    Borrow money for the Fund except for temporary emergency purposes and then
      only in an amount not exceeding 5% of the value of the total assets of the
      Fund. Borrowing shall, for purposes of this paragraph, include reverse
      repurchase agreements. Any borrowings, other than reverse repurchase
      agreements, will be from banks. The Company 


                                       -2-
<PAGE>   15
      will repay all borrowings in the Fund before making additional investments
      for the Fund and interest paid on such borrowings will reduce income.

8.    Issue senior securities.

9.    Underwrite any issue of securities, provided, however, that a Fund may
      invest all its assets in a diversified, open-end management investment
      company, or a series thereof, having substantially the same investment
      objectives, policies and restrictions as such Fund, without regard to the
      limitations set forth in this paragraph.

10.   Purchase or sell real estate or real estate mortgage loans, but this shall
      not prevent investments in instruments secured by real estate or interests
      therein or in marketable securities of issuers that engage in real estate
      operations.

11.   Purchase on margin or sell short.

12.   Purchase or retain securities of an issuer if those members of the
      Board of The Company or the Asset Allocation Master Portfolio of Master
      Investment Trust, Series I, each of whom own more than 1/2 of 1% of
      such securities, together own more than 5% of the securities of such
      issuer, provided, however, that a Fund may invest all its assets in a
      diversified, open-end management investment company, or a series
      thereof, having substantially the same investment objectives, policies
      and restrictions as such Fund, without regard to the limitations set
      forth in this paragraph.

13.   Purchase securities of any other investment company (except in
      connection with a merger, consolidation, acquisition or reorganization)
      if, immediately after such purchase, the Company (and any companies
      controlled by it) would own in the aggregate (i) more than 3% of the
      total outstanding voting stock of such investment company, (ii)
      securities issued by such investment company would have an aggregate
      value in excess of 5% of the value of the total assets of the Company,
      or (iii) securities issued by such investment company and all other
      investment companies would have an aggregate value in excess of 10% of
      the value of the total assets of the Company provided, however, that a
      Fund may invest all its assets in a diversified, open-end management
      investment company, or a series thereof, having substantially the same
      investment objectives, policies and restrictions as such Fund, without
      regard to the limitations set forth in this paragraph.

14.   Invest in or sell put, call, straddle or spread options or interests in
      oil, gas or other mineral exploration or development programs.

                         SUPPLEMENT DATED JULY 1, 1998
      TO THE STATEMENT OF ADDITIONAL INFORMATION DATED JULY 1, 1998 FOR THE
PRIME FUND, TREASURY FUND, TREASURY ONLY FUND, GOVERNMENT FUND, TAX-EXEMPT MONEY
                FUND AND CALIFORNIA TAX-EXEMPT MONEY MARKET FUND


      On June 19, 1998, Pacific Horizon Funds, Inc. held an annual meeting of
its shareholders. At the meeting, a number of proposals were presented to the
shareholders for their approval, including the election of directors and the
approval of a number of changes to fundamental investment objectives, policies
and limitations of each of the Funds. A quorum of shareholders of the Company,
however, was not present to act on the proposal for the election of directors.
In addition, with respect to the Prime Fund, Treasury Fund, and Treasury Only
Fund, a quorum of shareholders was not present to act on the proposals relating
to the changes in certain fundamental investment objectives, policies and
limitations. The meeting has been adjourned until July 20, 1998. Accordingly,
until shareholder approval of the proposals is received, the Statement of
Additional Information is amended as follows.

      1. Mr. Edward S. Bottum and Mr. William P. Carmichael are not directors of
Pacific Horizon Funds, Inc. In addition, Mr. Kermit O. Hanson will remain as a
director until his successor is elected and qualified.

      Since 1988, Mr. Hanson has served as Vice Chairman of the Advisory Board
of the Pacific Rim Bankers Program (a non-profit educational institution) and
was its Executive Director from 1977 to 1988. Since 1981, he has been Dean

the Washington Federal Savings and Loan Association and was a Trustee of

Mr. Hanson is 81 years old, and his address is 17760 14th Avenue, N.W.,
Shoreline, Washington 98177.

      2. Until shareholder approval is received to designate them as
non-fundamental, the Prime and Treasury Funds' investment objectives remain
fundamental (i.e., they may not be changed without the affirmative vote of the
holders of the majority of the Fund's outstanding shares (as defined in the
Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended)).

      3. Until shareholder approval is received to change the fundamental
investment limitations, the Prime, Treasury and Treasury Only Funds' fundamental
investment objectives, policies and investment limitations are as follows:

THE PRIME FUND MAY NOT:

1.    Purchase any securities which would cause 25% or more of the Fund's
      total assets at the time of purchase to be invested in the securities
      of one or more issuers conducting their principal business activities
      in the same industry, provided that (a) there is no limitation with
      respect to obligations issued or guaranteed by the U.S. Government, its
      agencies or 


                                       -1-
<PAGE>   17
      instrumentalities or domestic bank certificates of deposit, bankers'
      acceptances and repurchase agreements secured by instruments of domestic
      branches of U.S. banks or obligations of the U.S. Government, its agencies
      or instrumentalities; (b) wholly-owned finance companies will be
      considered to be in the industries of their parents if their activities
      are primarily related to financing the activities of the parents; and (c)
      the industry classification of utilities will be determined according to
      their service. For example, gas, gas transmission, electric and gas,
      electric and telephone will each be considered a separate industry.

THE TREASURY FUND MAY NOT:

1.    Concentrate its investments in any particular industry (excluding
      obligations of the U.S. Government, obligations of domestic banks, and
      repurchase agreements), but if it is deemed appropriate for the
      achievement of its investment objective, up to 25% of the assets of the
      Fund (taken at market value at the time of each investment) may be
      invested in any one industry; provided, that nothing in this investment
      restriction shall affect the Fund's ability to invest a portion or all
      of its assets in a corresponding investment company with the same
      investment objective and policies.

PRIME FUND AND TREASURY FUND. Neither the Prime Fund nor the Treasury Fund may:

1.    Purchase securities of any one issuer (other than obligations issued or
      guaranteed by the U.S. Government, its agencies or instrumentalities)
      if immediately thereafter more than 15% of its total assets would be
      invested in certificates of deposit or bankers' acceptances of any one
      bank, or more than 5% of its total assets would be invested in other
      securities of any one bank or the securities of any other issuer
      (except that up to 25% of the Fund's total assets may be invested
      without regard to this limitation).

      In accordance with current regulations of the SEC, the Prime Fund
      presently will limit its investments in the securities of any single
      issuer (other than securities issued or guaranteed by the U.S. Government,
      its agencies or instrumentalities) to not more than 5% of the Fund's total
      assets at the time of purchase, provided that the Fund may invest up to
      25% of its total assets in the securities of any one issuer for a period
      that does not exceed three business days. This intention is not, however,
      a fundamental policy of the Fund.

2.    Borrow money or issue senior securities, except that each Fund may
      borrow from banks or enter into reverse repurchase agreements to meet
      redemptions or for other temporary purposes in amounts up to 10% of its
      total assets at the time of such borrowing; or mortgage, pledge or
      hypothecate any assets except in connection with any such borrowing and
      in amounts not in excess of the lesser of the dollar amount borrowed or
      10% of its total assets at the time of such borrowing; or purchase
      securities at any time after such borrowings (including reverse
      repurchase agreements) have been entered into and before they are
      repaid.


                                       -2-
<PAGE>   18
3.    Purchase securities without available market quotations which cannot be
      sold without registration or the filing of a notification under federal or
      state securities laws, enter into repurchase agreements providing for
      settlement more than seven days after notice, or purchase any other
      securities deemed illiquid by the Directors if, as a result, such
      securities and repurchase agreements would exceed 10% of the Fund's total
      assets.

4.    Purchase or sell real estate (however, a Fund may, to the extent
      appropriate to its investment objective, purchase securities issued by
      companies investing in real estate or interests therein.

5.    Underwrite the securities of other issuers.

6.    Purchase securities of companies for the purpose of exercising control.

7.    Purchase securities on margin, make short sales of securities or maintain
      a short position.

8.    Acquire any other investment company or investment company security except
      in connection with a merger, consolidation, reorganization or acquisition
      of assets.

9.    Make loans except that (i) a Fund may purchase or hold debt instruments
      and enter into repurchase agreements pursuant to its investment objective
      and policies, and (ii) the Prime Fund may lend portfolio securities.

THE TREASURY ONLY FUND MAY NOT:

1.    Invest more than 10% of the Fund's net assets in securities that are not
      readily marketable (such as repurchase agreements maturing in more than
      seven days). If changes in the markets of certain securities cause the
      Fund to exceed such 10% limit, the Fund will take steps to bring the
      aggregate amount of its illiquid securities back below 10% of its net
      assets.

2.    Borrow money, except that as a temporary measure for extraordinary or
      emergency purposes the Fund may borrow from banks in an amount not to
      exceed 1/3 of the value of its net assets, including the amount
      borrowed; moreover, the Fund may purchase any securities at any time at
      which borrowings exceed 5% of the total assets of the Fund (taken at
      market value) (it is intended that the Fund would borrow money only
      from banks and only to accommodate requests for withdrawals while
      effecting an orderly liquidation of securities).

3.    Purchase any security or evidence of interest therein on margin, except
      that the Fund may obtain such short term credit as may be necessary for
      the clearance of purchases and sales of securities.

4.    Underwrite securities issued by other persons, except that all of the
      assets of the Fund may be invested in a corresponding investment company
      with the same investment 


                                       -3-
<PAGE>   19
      objective and policies and except insofar as a Fund may technically be
      deemed an underwriter under the Securities Act of 1933 (the "1933 Act") in
      selling a security.

5.    Make loans to other persons except (a) through the lending of
      securities held by the Fund, (b) through the use of fixed time deposits
      or repurchase agreements or the purchase of short term obligations, or
      (c) by purchasing all or a portion of an issue of debt securities of
      types commonly distributed privately to financial institutions; for
      purposes of this investment restriction the purchase of short-term
      commercial paper or a portion of an issue of debt securities which are
      part of an issue to the public shall not be considered the making of a
      loan.

6.    Purchase or sell real estate (including limited partnership interests but
      excluding securities secured by real estate or interests therein),
      interests in oil, gas or mineral leases, commodities or commodity
      contracts in the ordinary course of business (the Fund reserves the
      freedom of action to hold and to sell real estate acquired as a result of
      the ownership of securities by the Fund).

7.    Issue any senior security (as that term is defined in the Investment
      Company Act of 1940 (the "1940 Act") if such issuance is specifically
      prohibited by the 1940 Act or the rules and regulations promulgated
      thereunder, except as appropriate to evidence a debt incurred without
      violating the investment restriction regarding borrowing.

8.    Concentrate its investments in any particular industry (excluding
      obligations of the U.S. Government, obligations of domestic banks, and
      repurchase agreements), but if it is deemed appropriate for the
      achievement of its investment objective, up to 25% of the assets of the
      Fund (taken at market value at the time of each investment) may be
      invested in any one industry; provided, that nothing in this investment
      restriction shall affect the Fund's ability to invest a portion or all
      of its assets in a corresponding investment company with the same
      investment objective and policies.

9.    Purchase securities of any one issuer (other than obligations issued or
      guaranteed by the U.S. Government, its agencies or instrumentalities)
      if immediately thereafter more than 15% of its total assets would be
      invested in certificates of deposit or bankers' acceptances of any one
      bank, or more than 5% of its total assets would be invested in other
      securities of any one bank or the securities of any other issuer
      (except that up to 25% of the Fund's total assets may be invested
      without regard to this limitation).
