The following is added immediately below the section "Abusive Trading Practices"
on page 20 of the Prospectus:

SPECIAL REQUIREMENTS FOR LARGE REDEMPTIONS

If,  during any 90-day  period,  you redeem fund shares worth more than $250,000
(or 1% of the assets of the fund if that percentage is less than  $250,000),  we
reserve  the right to pay part or all of the  redemption  proceeds  in excess of
this amount in readily marketable securities instead of cash. If we make payment
in securities, we will value the securities selected by the fund managers in the
same manner as we do in  computing  the fund's net asset  value.  We may provide
these securities in lieu of cash without prior notice.

If your  redemption  would  exceed  this limit and you would like to avoid being
paid in  securities,  please  provide us with an  unconditional  instruction  to
redeem at least 15 days prior to the date on which the redemption transaction is
to occur.  The instruction must specify the dollar amount or number of shares to
be redeemed and the date of the  transaction.  This  minimizes the effect of the
redemption on the fund and its remaining shareholders.


The  following  replaces  the  first  sentence  of the  first  paragraph  of the
subsection  "Other  Funds" under the heading  "Distributions"  on page 21 of the
Prospectus:

Each fund pays distributions from net income monthly.
