WHAT'S RIGHT WITH THIS MARKET

The stock market has been on a roller coaster of late, and that naturally makes
people uneasy. But if you're a long-term investor, then I would argue that there
are a lot more good things influencing the market than bad things.

True, U.S. corporate earnings are flattening out, and that's putting a damper on
the stock market. When you buy a stock, you're buying a future stream of
dividends as well as a stronger company because most of the profits are being
reinvested. After double-digit growth during much of the 1990s, profits in 1998
grew in the low single digits. A major reason why profits are sluggish is the
economic and currency turmoil in Asia, which hurts U.S. companies doing business
there.

Another reason for sluggish profit growth is the great job that Corporate
America has done to become more efficient. After years of cost-cutting, there
isn't much cutting left to do. To enhance profits, companies must either boost
prices or sell more products and services. But with inflation at virtually zero,
it's tough to raise prices. So, profit growth must come through increased unit
volume.

And that's where the good news is likely to begin. Even with the dampening
effects of Asia, the U.S. economy is still basically healthy, making it possible
for U.S. corporations to sell more products and services here at home. True,
we're losing business in Asia, because the dollar is so strong compared to their
currencies. But what we're losing in Asia, we're gaining in Europe, as that
region of the world begins to enjoy U.S.-style prosperity.

Asia has helped keep inflation worries away, and that has kept interest rates
low. Recently, the 30-year Treasury bond yield reached its lowest level ever, as
global investors buy our securities for the greatest safety and liquidity.
Partly because of our low inflation environment, worldwide demand for U.S.
stocks and bonds continues to be strong.

Even if 1999 turns out to be a mediocre year for stocks, let's not feel too
sorry for ourselves. The Dow Jones Industrial Average has more than doubled
since 1995 and virtually tripled since the beginning of this decade. Where was
the Dow in 1982? 800! Has the value of your house gone up by a factor of ten in
fifteen years? Probably not. The point is that markets do not go up in a
straight line, and there is bound to be volatility. But if you're an investor
for the long term, then you should be able to step back and see the good in this
market.

          IAI GROWTH AND INCOME FUND, IAI REGIONAL FUND, IAI VALUE FUND


ECONOMIC OUTLOOK

A summary of economic outlook as provided by Larry Hill, IAI's Chief Fixed
Income Officer, follows.

Robust economic growth and slowing inflationary trends sent analysts to their
history books to identify when past economic data was as positive as recent
statistics. Economic growth in 1998 was at its fastest pace in 15 years while
the inflation rate increased at its lowest rate since 1961. These trends have
carried over to the first quarter. With jobs plentiful and consumers
experiencing favorable real wage increases, consumer confidence is high.
Combined with tax refunds and year-end incentive pay to produce, this is one of
the strongest periods for retail sales in the last 10 years.

During previous economic expansions, conventional wisdom linked strong demand
growth with rising inflation. This normally provoked the Federal Reserve to
tighten monetary policy to reduce demand and prevent an acceleration of
inflation. However, this time even the Fed seems to be skeptical of that
linkage. In a speech in early April, Federal Reserve Vice Chair Alice Rivlin
stated:

"Tight labor markets have long been seen as harbingers of inflation (as higher
wages led to higher prices) and lower productivity (as less skilled and
experienced workers were drawn into the labor market). But recent experience
suggests that, at least in the context of intense global and domestic
competitiveness, as well as a continuing revolution in computers and
telecommunications, tight labor markets can provide incentives for managerial
innovation, skills acquisition and higher productivity, thereby leading to
higher growth with little inflation."

During the quarter, the Fed left rates unchanged and signaled they were
maintaining a neutral policy stance. Fears of a possible tightening, however,
negatively impacted financial markets in February. By quarter-end the equity
market had recovered to push through the 10,000 mark on the Dow and interest
rates, following a steep rise in February, stabilized.

Ms. Rivlin mentioned several of the factors that have allowed strong U.S. growth
with low inflation. While our economy is experiencing good times, weakness
persists in Asia, Russia and Latin America and growth has slowed in Europe. This
has contributed to declining commodity and input prices as global demand remains
soft. The only commodity showing strength has been oil, driven by production
cut-backs by oil producing countries. Another factor favoring low inflation has
been the strength of the dollar. Real interest rate differentials between the
U.S. and our major trading partners widened in favor of the dollar during the
quarter. Strength in the dollar makes imports less expensive, effectively
eliminating the ability of U.S. producers to raise prices.

We expect economic momentum to continue throughout the year. However, the pace
of the expansion will moderate toward a real GDP growth rate of 3%. Over the
past three years the U.S. economy has been unusually robust in the fourth and
first quarters, only to slow significantly in the second and third quarters. The
increase in oil prices, if sustained, will help slow the economy by cutting into
consumers' disposable income. Finally, the rise in interest rates during the
quarter will slow economic growth.

* PERCENTAGE OF NET ASSETS AS OF 3/31/99


HOW HAS THE FUND PERFORMED?

The Fund underperformed its benchmark, the S&P 500 Index, during the year ended
March 31, 1999, with a return of 1.52% compared to 18.45%.

WHICH HOLDINGS WERE PARTICULARLY SUCCESSFUL FOR THE FUND? WERE THERE ANY
DISAPPOINTMENTS?

Tut Systems (4.84%)*, Nabors Industries (3.32%)*, Citigroup (3.17%)* and Nike
(0.89%)* were the largest contributors to performance. Tut Systems, a provider
of high-speed access solutions for the communications market, was well received
by the market in an initial public offering. Nabors Industries, the largest U.S.
driller of land-based oil and natural gas wells, gained as OPEC agreed to slash
production in a bid to lift oil prices. Citigroup shares continued to rise as
analysts predicted that first quarter earnings would likely be higher than
expected. Nike shares gained after the world's top maker of athletic shoes and
clothing said fiscal third-quarter profit rose more than expected.

800-JR Cigar (2.36%)*, Philip Morris (1.72%)* and Bellsouth (2.17%)* were among
the Fund's laggards. 800-JR Cigar fell on lower than expected fourth quarter
earnings. Philip Morris shares fell after an Oregon jury ordered the world's
largest tobacco company to pay a record $81 million to a smoker's family.
Bellsouth declined after the phone company said that its first quarter profits
will be at the lower end of expectations because of increased spending on data
and wireless services.

WERE THERE ANY SIGNIFICANT CHANGES?

There was a net gain of eight common stocks in the Fund during the year. New
companies added to the Fund included AT&T (1.90%)*, Allied Signal (1.89%)*,
International Business Machines (1.97%)* and Motorola (0.48%)*. Stocks sold
during the year included CBS (sold), General Electric (sold), Gillette (sold)
and Wal-Mart Stores (sold).

CAN YOU POINT TO ANY SPECIFIC MARKET FACTORS THAT INFLUENCED THE FUND'S
PERFORMANCE?

The Consumer Staples sector, led by 800-JR Cigar and Philip Morris, had the
largest negative impact on performance. The Energy and Health Care sectors had
the largest positive impact on performance. The Fund's overweighting of small
caps compared to the Russell 1000 Value Index contributed to the
underperformance of the Fund.

WHAT IS YOUR OUTLOOK FOR THE FUND?

The "Goldilocks" economy remained intact during the year with economic reports
that were neither too "hot," causing inflation concerns, nor too "cold," causing
concern that a recession is near. It is conceivable that the stock market will
remain healthy as long as the economy continues on a moderate growth, low
inflation trend. As in the past, the risk to the market is when the economy
begins to weaken or inflates. The Fund continues to invest in companies that
have positive long-term business prospects and that are attractively priced.

HOW HAS THE FUND PERFORMED?

The IAI Regional Fund declined (7.74%) during the year ended March 31, 1999. The
S&P 500 Index, weighted toward larger cap stocks, rose 18.45%.

WHICH HOLDINGS WERE PARTICULARLY SUCCESSFUL FOR THE FUND? WERE THERE ANY
DISAPPOINTMENTS?

Tut Systems (4.23%)*, a provider of high-speed access solutions for the
communications market, and Dayton Hudson (3.63%)*, a department and specialty
store retailer, were the biggest contributors to the Fund's performance during
the year. Intranet Solutions (1.45%)*, a developer of software for the
management of documents through intranets, was also a strong performer
benefiting from the surge in internet related stocks. After skyrocketing in the
fourth quarter, Secure Computing (2.54%)* retraced its rise and was the biggest
disappointment.

WERE THERE ANY SIGNIFICANT CHANGES?

A handful of stocks were added to the Fund during the year. They included
Superior Services (1.26%), a solid waste management company; Commercial Federal
(0.73%)*, a bank holding company; Metzler Group (0.65%)*, a consultant to the
utilities industry; and Spyglass (0.24%)*, an internet software provider.
Sunstrand (sold) was acquired during the year and a few other stocks were sold
as a function of our ongoing portfolio review process including Ameritech
(sold), Manpower (sold), Anicom (sold), Possis Medical (sold), and Northern
States Power (sold).

CAN YOU POINT TO ANY SPECIFIC MARKET FACTORS THAT INFLUENCED THE FUND'S
PERFORMANCE?

In a continuation of the market conditions of 1998, the first quarter was
dominated by the very largest stocks in the overall market. As evidence of this
phenomenon, the S&P 500 Index gained 5.0% during the quarter while the S&P
Midcap 400 Index lost (6.4%) and the Russell 2000 Index fell (5.4%). The eight
state region in which the Fund invests followed the broader market. Stocks
within the region with over $5 billion in market cap delivered strong positive
performance on average while stocks under $2.5 billion fell sharply.

WHAT IS YOUR OUTLOOK FOR THE FUND?

We continue to maintain a well diversified, high quality portfolio exhibiting
strong earnings growth. As a result of the disparity in performance between the
large cap stocks and the rest of the market, the small and midcap stocks within
the Fund are trading at very attractive valuations. With the domestic economy
growing strongly, we may be nearer the point where investors start to look at
the attractive fundamentals of the smaller stocks in the market.

* PERCENTAGE OF NET ASSETS AS OF 3/31/99


HOW HAS THE FUND PERFORMED?

The Fund significantly outperformed one of its benchmarks during the year ended
March 31, 1999, returning 8.47% vs. the Russell 2500 Index, which declined
(13.26%). The S&P 500 Index rose 18.45% for the same period.

WHICH HOLDINGS WERE PARTICULARLY SUCCESSFUL FOR THE FUND? WERE THERE ANY
DISAPPOINTMENTS?

Tut Systems (29.15%)* significantly contributed to the Fund's strong results for
the year. Tut, a provider of high-speed access solutions for the communications
market, sold stock in an initial public offering and was well received by the
market. Towne Services (1.28%)*, Nabors Industries (1.05%)*, Nordson (0.90%)*,
and Pathnet (35.65%)* each positively impacted performance this year. Towne
Services, which develops and delivers electronic processing systems that help
community banks compete with larger financial institutions, rose after
announcing record fourth quarter and annual revenues. Nabors Industries, the
largest U.S. driller of land-based oil and natural gas wells, gained as OPEC
agreed to slash production in a bid to lift oil prices. Nordson, which designs
and manufactures adhesive and sealant systems, gained on strong fiscal first
quarter results. Pathnet is a privately-held security providing high capacity,
fiber, and wireless bandwidth to under-served U.S. markets.

CompX International (0.57%)*, Phoenix International (0.49%)* and 800-JR Cigar
(1.70%)* had the largest negative impact on the Fund. CompX International, which
sells ergonomic computer support systems for office furniture, declined during
the quarter as the commercial furniture industry experienced softening sales.
Phoenix International and 800-JR Cigar declined after reporting lower than
expected fourth quarter earnings.

WERE THEIR ANY SIGNIFICANT CHANGES?

The Fund's portfolio of restricted securities represents 71.1% of net assets.
Tut Systems and Pathnet account for more than half of the portfolio. As a result
of the increase in valuation of these securities, Value Fund's net assets
significantly exceed the15% limitation in illiquid restricted securities. The
Fund remains closed to new investors.

CAN YOU POINT TO ANY SPECIFIC MARKET FACTORS THAT INFLUENCED THE FUND'S
PERFORMANCE?

The Basic Materials and Energy sectors contributed positively to performance,
while the Consumer Cyclicals and Consumer Staples sectors had the largest
negative impact on performance.

WHAT IS YOUR OUTLOOK FOR THE FUND?

We continue to believe that the smaller company stocks show better valuation
characteristics than those of large companies. Our long-term objective is to
invest in small cap stocks that have strong competitive positions, generating
significant free cash flow and selling at attractive valuation levels.

The Fund is actively seeking liquidation opportunities which would reduce the
percentage of the Fund's investment portfolio comprised of restricted
securities. The Fund's ability to liquidate such securities may be limited by
legal or contractual provisions. The Fund intends to pursue such opportunities
when deemed in the best interest of the shareholders.

                                 MARCH 31, 1999

                                       (a)

Market value of securities is determined as described in Note 1 to the financial
statements, under "Security Valuation."

                                       (b)

Currently non-income producing security.

                                       (c)

Restricted securities generally must be registered with the Securities and
Exchange Commission under the Securities Act of 1933 prior to being sold to the
public. For each restricted security issue held at March 31, 1999, the Fund held
no unrestricted securities of the same issuer as of either the date the purchase
price was agreed to or the date the Fund first obtained an enforceable right to
obtain the securities. Information concerning each restricted security held at
March 31, 1999 is shown on pages 22-26.

                                       (d)

Investment represents five percent or more of the outstanding voting securities
of the issuer, and is therefore an affiliate, as defined in the Investment
Company Act of 1940, at March 31, 1999. A summary of transactions during the
period with affiliated issuers of the Funds follows:

                                 MARCH 31, 1999

[1] SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The IAI Mutual Funds are registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (as
amended) as diversified, open-end management investment companies, or series
thereof. IAI Growth and Income Fund (Growth and Income Fund) is a separate
portfolio of IAI Investment Funds VII, Inc., IAI Regional Fund (Regional Fund)
is a separate portfolio of IAI Investment Funds IV, Inc. and IAI Value Fund
(Value Fund) is a separate portfolio of IAI Investment Funds VIII, Inc. The
Funds have a primary objective of long-term appreciation through investments in
equity securities.

As of May 12, 1998, Value Fund was closed to new purchases (other than
systematic purchases.) Value Fund's Board of Directors and Advisers determined
it to be in the best interest of the Fund's shareholders to close the Fund due
to an investment in a restricted security. Closing the Fund was intended to
protect existing shareholders by preventing individuals from speculating on
short-term purchases and sales of the Fund's shares.

Significant accounting policies followed by the Funds are summarized below:

SECURITY VALUATION

Portfolio securities are valued at the close of the New York Stock Exchange on
each trading day. Listed and unlisted securities for which such information is
regularly reported are valued at the last sale price of the day or, in the
absence of sales, at values based on the closing bid or the last sale price on
the prior trading day. Long-term and short-term "non-money market" debt
securities are valued by a portfolio pricing service. Securities which cannot be
valued by the portfolio pricing service are valued using dealer-supplied
valuations, or are valued under consistently applied procedures established by
the Board of Directors to determine fair value in good faith. Short-term "money
market type" debt securities having a remaining maturity of 60 days or less at
acquisition are valued at cost adjusted for amortization to maturity of any
premium or discount.

Restricted securities for which there is no public market are valued at fair
value in good faith under procedures established by the Board of Directors. Such
procedures consider various factors including, but not limited to, the cost of
the security at date of purchase, the current financial statements of the issuer
and special reports prepared by analysts, the size of the position held, recent
purchases or sales of securities of the company, prices and public trading
activity of comparable companies, prices of unrestricted securities of the same
class discounted to reflect the nature and duration of restrictions on
disposition, pending public offerings with respect to the security, changes in
economic conditions and industry developments affecting the issuer, and other
relevant matters. Restricted securities represent $4,269,399 (8.2% of net
assets) for Growth and Income Fund, $33,848,005 (12.3% of net assets) for
Regional Fund and $9,722,728 (71.1% of net assets) for Value Fund. Because of
the inherent uncertainty of valuation, those estimated values may differ
significantly from the values that would have been used had a ready market for
the securities existed, and the differences could be material.

FUTURES AND OPTIONS CONTRACTS

In order to increase exposure to and hedge against changes in the market, the
Funds may buy and sell futures contracts and options. The risks of entering into
futures and option contracts include the possibility that changes in the value
of these contracts may not correlate with changes in the underlying security.

Futures contracts are valued at the settlement price of the exchange on which
they are traded. Upon entering into a futures contract, a Fund is required to
deposit either cash or securities, representing the initial margin, equal to a
certain percentage of the contract value. Subsequent changes in the value of the
contract, or variation margin, are recorded daily as unrealized gains or losses.
The variation margin is paid or received in cash daily by the Fund. The Fund
realizes a gain or loss when the contract is closed or expires.


                                                                              39

                                 MARCH 31, 1999

[1] SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONT.)

Options traded on an exchange are valued using the last sale price, and those
traded over-the-counter are valued using dealer-supplied valuations, resulting
in unrealized appreciation or depreciation being recorded. The Fund will realize
a gain or loss upon expiration or closing of the option transaction.

When an option is exercised, the proceeds on sales for a written call option,
the purchase cost for a written put option or the cost of a security for a
purchased put or call option is adjusted by the amount of premium received or
paid.

FEDERAL TAXES

Since it is each Fund's policy to comply with the provisions of the Internal
Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies and to distribute all
of its taxable income to its shareholders, no provision for income taxes is
required. In order to avoid the payment of any federal excise taxes, each Fund
is required to distribute substantially all of its net investment income and net
realized gains on a calendar year basis. Distributions in excess of book basis
net investment income (but which are not tax returns of capital) are presented
as "excess distributions" in the statement of changes in net assets and the
financial highlights.

Net investment income and net realized gains differ for financial statement and
tax purposes primarily because of recognition of limited partnership income and
the deferral of "wash sale" losses for tax purposes. The character of
distributions made during the year from net investment income or net realized
gains may also differ from its ultimate characterization for tax purposes.

On the statement of assets and liabilities, as a result of permanent book-to-tax
differences, undistributed net investment income and accumulated net realized
gains (losses) have been increased or decreased as follows:

</TABLE>

SECURITY TRANSACTIONS AND INVESTMENT INCOME

The Funds record security transactions on trade date, the date the securities
are purchased or sold. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date.
Interest income is recorded on the accrual basis. The Funds amortize discount
purchased on long-term bonds using the level yield method of amortization.
Security gains and losses are determined on the basis of identified cost, which
is the same basis used for federal income tax purposes. The Funds use the equity
method of accounting for limited partnerships.

                                 MARCH 31, 1999

[1] SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONT.)

DISTRIBUTIONS TO SHAREHOLDERS

Distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date.
Distributions from net investment income are made semi-annually. Capital gains,
if any, are primarily distributed as of the end of the calendar year. Additional
capital gains distributions as needed to comply with federal tax regulations are
distributed during the year.

USE OF ESTIMATES

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that
affect the reported amounts in the financial statements. Actual results could
differ from those estimates.

[2] COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

INSURANCE

For purposes of obtaining certain types of insurance coverage for the Funds and
their officers and directors, the Funds are policyholders in an
industry-sponsored mutual insurance company (the Company). In connection with
their obligations as policyholders, the Funds are committed to make future
capital contributions, if requested by the Company.

LINE OF CREDIT

At March 31, 1999, Growth and Income Fund, Regional Fund, and Value Fund had
available lines of credit of $13,340,000, $15,000,000 and $4,230,000,
respectively, with a bank at the prime interest rate. To the extent funds are
drawn against the line, securities are held in a segregated account. No
compensating balances or commitment fees are required under the line of
credit.There were no borrowings outstanding for the Funds at March 31, 1999.

LITIGATION

In July 1998, a lawsuit was filed against Value Fund, Advisers and certain of
their officers and directors relating to the pricing of a restricted security
held by the Fund. Management, after review with legal counsel, believes the
ultimate disposition of this matter will not have a material effect on the
Fund's financial condition.

LIMITED PARTNERSHIP COMMITMENTS

At March 31, 1999, the Regional Fund is committed to invest additional amounts
in certain limited partnership investments held, as follows:

LIMITED PARTNERSHIP INVESTMENT COMMITMENTS

- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
                                               REGIONAL FUND
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Agio Capital Partners I L.P.                    $   375,000

Spectrum Equity Investors L.P.                       78,000

Spell Capital Partners                              613,000
================================================================================

Default by a limited partner of payment of a properly requested capital
contribution, other than default due to a legal determination that such
contribution need not be made, would result in forfeiture of such limited
partner's interest in any future profits and loss in the partnership and removal
from the limited partnership.

The Funds' management intends to finance the aforementioned commitments with
available cash or with proceeds from the sale of investments in short-term
securities. Regional Fund maintains in a segregated account an amount equal to
its aggregate unpaid commitments.


                                                                              41

[3] FEES AND EXPENSES

Under the terms of each Fund's Management Agreement, Investment Advisers, Inc.
(Advisers) is required to pay for all expenses of each Fund, except certain
costs (primarily those incurred in the purchase and sale of assets, taxes,
interest and extraordinary expenses), in return for each Fund paying an all
inclusive management fee (unified fee) to Advisers. The fee is equal to an
annual rate of 1.25% declining to 1.10% (1.00% for Growth and Income Fund) of
average daily net assets. This fee is paid monthly. The Management Agreements
further provide that Advisers will either reimburse the Funds for the fees and
expenses it pays to Directors who are not "interested persons" of the Funds or
reduce its fee by an equivalent amount.

Included in the Funds' portfolios of investments in securities at March 31,
1999, are issues which generally cannot be offered for sale to the public
without first being registered under the Securities Act of 1933 ("restricted
securities"). Such securities are generally illiquid.

Each Fund limits investments in securities which are not readily marketable to
15% of its net assets at the time of purchase. This limitation does not include
Rule 144A securities that have been determined to be liquid based upon
guidelines approved by the Funds' Board of Directors.

At March 31, 1999, 71.1% of Value Fund's net assets were invested in restricted
securities. At March 31, 1999, Advisers was actively seeking liquidation
opportunities which would reduce the percentage of the Fund's investment
portfolio comprised of restricted securities. Advisers, under the direction of
the Board of Directors, intends to pursue such opportunities when deemed in the
best interest of the shareholders.

                          INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT
          IAI GROWTH AND INCOME FUND, IAI REGIONAL FUND, IAI VALUE FUND




THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS AND SHAREHOLDERS
IAI INVESTMENT FUNDS IV, INC.:
IAI INVESTMENT FUNDS VII, INC.:
IAI INVESTMENT FUNDS VIII, INC.:

We have audited the accompanying statements of assets and liabilities, including
the fund portfolios, of IAI Regional Fund (a portfolio within IAI Investment
Funds IV, Inc.), IAI Growth and Income Fund (a portfolio within IAI Investment
Funds VII, Inc.) and IAI Value Fund (a portfolio within IAI Investment Funds
VIII, Inc.) as of March 31, 1999, and the related statements of operations and
cash flows 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 the financial highlights are the responsibility of the Fund's
management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial
statements and the 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 the 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. Investment securities held in custody are confirmed to us by the
custodian. As to securities purchased and sold but not received or delivered, we
request confirmations from brokers and where replies are not received, we carry
out other appropriate auditing procedures. 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 the financial highlights referred
to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of IAI
Regional Fund, IAI Growth and Income Fund, and IAI Value Fund at March 31, 1999,
and the results of their operations and their cash flows, the changes in their
net assets and the financial highlights for the periods stated in the first
paragraph above, in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

As described in notes 1 and 5 to the financial statements, Value Fund held 71.1%
of its net assets in illiquid, restricted securities as of March 31, 1999.
