THE ONE GROUP FAMILY OF MUTUAL FUNDS                           DECEMBER 31, 1996
 
WE ARE PLEASED TO PRESENT THIS SEMI-ANNUAL REPORT FOR THE ONE
GROUP-REGISTERED TRADEMARK- FAMILY OF MUTUAL FUNDS. ON THE FOLLOWING PAGES, YOU
WILL FIND AN OVERVIEW OF THE FINANCIAL MARKETS AND YOUR FUND'S PERFORMANCE FOR
THE PERIOD FROM JULY 1, 1996, THROUGH DECEMBER 31, 1996.
 
DEAR VALUED SHAREHOLDERS:
Thank you for your continued support of The One Group Family of Mutual Funds.
 
1996 proved to be a rewarding year for stock investors, and a challenging one
for bond investors. Stocks maintained the strength they exhibited during 1995
and posted impressive double-digit returns. Bond returns, on the other hand,
slipped back into the low single digits, as the market was plagued with
volatility.
 
As strong as the stock market's returns were during 1996, and as disappointing
as the bond market's results were, it's important to keep performance--whether
good or bad--in perspective. Returns in any single year shouldn't influence your
long-term investment strategy.
 
It's highly unlikely that, over the long term, the stock market will remain as
strong as it has been during the past two years, or that the bond market will
remain as volatile. While returns may fluctuate over the short term, over the
long term the markets tend to adjust for periodic ups and downs so that
performance evens out.
 
These market dynamics underscore the importance of three key investment
strategies:
 
- - MAINTAINING A LONG-TERM PERSPECTIVE.  Don't let short-term returns distract
  you from your long-term strategy. Let time work for your investment portfolio.
  After all, it's time, not timing, that allows investments to realize their
  full potential.
 
- - ASSET ALLOCATION.  Spreading your investment dollars among stocks, bonds and
  money market securities according to your goals, time frame and risk tolerance
  exposes your money to opportunities from each major asset class.
 
- - DIVERSIFICATION.  Investing in a variety of securities within each asset class
  may enhance your returns while helping to reduce overall portfolio risk.
 
We believe that following these principles is critical to long-term investment
success. Nevertheless, it sometimes is difficult for individual investors to
implement these strategies in their own investment plans. The One Group is
always working on new ways to make investing easy and convenient. And now,
taking advantage of these investment techniques has never been simpler.
 
Four new funds--THE ONE GROUP INVESTOR FUNDS-- take the time and complexity out
of allocating your assets and assembling a diversified investment portfolio.
They offer a convenient way to enjoy asset allocation and broad diversification
from ONE investment.
 
Each of The One Group Investor Funds is targeted toward a specific investment
objective, such as growth, income or a combination of the two. In striving to
meet these objectives, the investment professionals managing The One Group
Investor Funds invest in a combination of mutual funds from The One Group
family. So, by investing in the SINGLE One Group Investor Fund best suited to
your goals, you enjoy instant diversification and professional asset allocation.
 
The One Group Investor Funds are suitable for various investment goals,
including one of the most important--retirement. Because they offer a single
source for asset allocation and broad diversification, they may be ideal
investments for THE ONE GROUP IRA.
 
The One Group IRA can be one of the smartest ways to save for retirement:
 
- - All workers AND non-working spouses may contribute up to $2,000 A YEAR.
 
- - You accumulate TAX-DEFERRED EARNINGS during your working years.
 
- - For certain investors, some or all of the $2,000 annual IRA contribution limit
  may be TAX-DEDUCTIBLE.
 
There's still time to make your IRA investment for the 1996 income tax year; the
deadline is April 15. All it takes is a minimum of $25 to set up your IRA, as
long as you sign up for systematic investing. Otherwise, the minimum is $250.
And, if you maintain a balance of at least $1,000, The One Group will waive the
annual IRA maintenance fee.

THE ONE GROUP FAMILY OF MUTUAL FUNDS                           DECEMBER 31, 1996
 
ECONOMY STAYS ON STEADY COURSE
Economic growth during the second half of 1996 started out on unstable ground,
with inventory accumulation representing approximately 75% of the third
quarter's 2.1% GDP growth. When growth is backed by a surge in inventories, it
is not sustainable. During the fourth quarter, though, a decline in the level of
reported inventories revealed virtually no contribution from this component
toward the 4.7% overall growth rate. This demonstrated that the composition of
growth as the year ended was much more solid than it was in the third quarter.
 
EXPECTED FED ACTION DOESN'T MATERIALIZE
While short-term interest rates, such as the three-month Treasury bill rate,
seem to have remained relatively stable from the beginning of the six-month
period, when they were 5.23%, to the end, when they were 5.17%, there was, in
fact, significant volatility in between. After a surge in GDP growth in the
second quarter--to 4.7%--the bond market became convinced that a tightening by
the Federal Reserve was necessary, causing rates on the two-year Treasury note
to climb as high as 6.43%. The Fed, however, left its monetary policy unchanged,
and short-term rates came back down.
 
With regard to adjusting monetary policy, the Fed remained idle during the
second half of the year. In fact, the only Fed action for all of 1996 came on
Jan. 31, when it cut the federal funds rate by 0.25%. Nevertheless, the Fed
continued to nurture economic growth during the second half, as it was able to
largely ignore the tightness of the labor market and increased labor costs that
characterized the period. The Fed's current philosophy continues to be somewhat
preemptive in nature, but not as preemptive as it was in 1994, when it first
introduced this philosophy to the financial markets.
 
LONG-TERM RATES DECLINE
Investor concerns about stronger economic growth diminished during the final few
months of the year, as the market became more hopeful that economic growth
eventually would slow down. As a result, long-term interest rates toward the
latter half of the year proceeded to decline even in the wake of higher
inflation.
 
Consumer prices slowly increased during the period, ending the year up 3.3% on a
year-over-year basis. Prices at the beginning of the six-month period were
rising only 2.8% on a year-over-year basis. The decline in long-term rates
occurred on the bond market's expectation that inflation in 1997 would be a lot
more subdued, and slower economic growth would take some wind out of
inflationary pressures.
 
The decline in long-term interest rates during the second half of the year
continued to add overall support to the country's stock market. In addition, it
may have offered the housing sector a helping hand. In November, for example,
housing starts posted a gain of 9.3%, which represented the highest monthly
growth rate since July 1995, when housing starts were up 11.5%. Nevertheless, by
year-end, we observed that poor weather in the West caused December's housing
starts to plunge by 12.2%.
 
WHAT'S IN STORE FOR 1997
After growing at a rate of 2.5% in 1996, we think the economy may slow down in
1997, as growth softens. Some of this slowdown is likely to be caused by a
continued dampening of growth in consumer credit.
 
As growth slows, consumer prices should increase by approximately 3.5% (on a
year-over-year basis) in 1997, due to growing labor cost pressures. This factor
is likely to push long-term interest rates up during the year. After starting
the year at 6.5%, we believe that the 30-year Treasury bond may peak during the
second half of the year and then fall back to approximately 6.9% in the fourth
quarter if economic growth slows.
 
One of the major uncertainties for the bond market in the first half of 1997
will be whether or not the tight labor market persists, and, furthermore,
whether it will result in much firmer consumer prices. Current bond prices
suggest that the market remains optimistic, but in the event that these
pressures translate into much higher prices, the bond market may encounter great
difficulty in the first half of the year.
 
We suspect that the Federal Reserve may combat rising consumer prices with an
increase in short-term interest rates. Our preliminary projections show that the
federal funds rate may move up during the first half of 1997, which should place
some downward pressure on stock prices.

THE ONE GROUP FAMILY OF MUTUAL FUNDS                           DECEMBER 31, 1996
 
VOLATILITY LEADS TO LACKLUSTER BOND RETURNS
The taxable bond market went on a roller coaster ride during 1996, first
falling, then coming back up, then declining again. The first six months of the
year were characterized by volatility and negative performance, as a strong
economy pushed interest rates up--and bond prices down. The yield on the 10-year
Treasury, for example, increased by approximately 1.5%.
 
In the second half of the year, the bond market staged a comeback. Economic
growth slowed down, and interest rates reverted back to their late-1995 levels.
In addition, foreign demand for high-quality U.S. bonds helped boost the
market's performance.
 
Then in December signs of a stronger economy began to emerge. As a result, all
segments of the domestic bond market again experienced declines, eliminating
about half the gains made during the previous five months. The calendar year
ended with lackluster market returns.
 
The economy wasn't the only factor working against the bond market. A demand for
yield led many investors to the emerging market debt and high-yield sectors of
the bond market, which caused these securities to outperform higher-quality
bonds. Furthermore, with a strong U.S. equity market, many investors were
over-allocated toward stocks, putting more pressure on the bond market.
 
THE ONE GROUP FUNDS RISE TO THE CHALLENGE
Despite this difficult environment, we are pleased to report that The One Group
fixed-income funds (fiduciary share class) offered relatively strong returns,
outperforming their respective Lipper Analytical Services mutual fund peer
groups for the six- and 12-month periods ended December 31, 1996. (Lipper is a
well-respected mutual fund research firm that tracks and compares returns for
groups of funds with similar investment objectives.) For more information,
please see the chart on page 6.
 
We attribute this performance to two strategies: maintaining a neutral duration
stance versus the benchmarks, and sector selection. (Duration is a measure of a
fixed-income fund's sensitivity to interest rate changes. A lower number
indicates less sensitivity; a higher number indicates greater sensitivity.) By
not taking any chances with duration, our funds were able to temper some of the
price volatility seen during the period. Furthermore, by focusing on bonds in
the mortgage-backed and corporate sectors, our funds captured the yield
advantage that these securities offered compared to Treasury securities.
 
MUNI MARKET REBOUNDS
As the flat-tax debate receded during the second half of 1996, the municipal
bond market rebounded. In addition, strong demand, particularly from the
institutional market, boosted performance. These factors helped the municipal
bond market outperform certain taxable issues, including government and
corporate bonds.
 
All of The One Group municipal bond funds offered relatively strong returns,
outperforming their respective fund peer groups (fiduciary share class). For
more information, please see the chart on page 6.
 
MONEY MARKET OFFERS "TYPICAL" RETURNS
Despite a fair amount of volatility among short-term securities--brought on by
investors trying to anticipate Federal Reserve action--money market securities
offered average returns during the second half of 1996. The One Group money
market funds continued to practice a barbell maturity strategy, focusing on both
the short and long ends of the money market maturity spectrum. This tactic
helped provide relatively strong returns that outperformed most of the funds'
peers.
 
MARKET SHOULD STABILIZE IN '97
Looking ahead, we anticipate that the bond market may operate in a range of 6%
to 7% in 1997. There probably will be some upward pressure on both short-and
long-term rates, but we don't think these increases will be dramatic. We think
it's likely that the Fed will tighten the federal funds rate by 0.25% to 0.50%
early in the year, with modest inflationary pressures the key determinant.
 
We expect to be cautious entering 1997 but may become more constructive if
interest rates get close to 7%. Our strategies will continue to focus on high-
quality securities with intermediate-term maturities, as they offer nearly all
of the return of longer-maturity bonds with significantly less risk. We also
will continue to stress income from securities in the mortgage and corporate
sectors. We believe that interest income should be important to returns in 1997,
as it was in 1996.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS                                  DECEMBER 31, 1996
(Unaudited)
 
1.  ORGANIZATION:
 
    The One Group (the "Trust") is registered under the Investment Company Act
    of 1940, as amended (the "1940 Act"), as an open-end investment company
    established as a Massachusetts business trust. The Trust is registered to
    offer four classes of shares: Fiduciary, Class A, Class B and Service. The
    Trust currently consists of thirty active funds. The accompanying financial
    statements and financial highlights are those of the Ultra Short-Term Income
    Fund (previously named the Government ARM Fund), the Limited Volatility Bond
    Fund, the Intermediate Bond Fund, the Government Bond Fund and the Income
    Bond Fund (individually a "Fund", collectively the "Funds") only. The Funds
    are each offered in Fiduciary Class, Class A and Class B Shares. Class A
    Shares are subject to initial sales charges, imposed at the time of
    purchase, in accordance with the Funds' prospectuses. Certain redemptions of
    Class B Shares are subject to contingent deferred sales charges in
    accordance with the Funds' prospectuses. Each Fund is a diversified mutual
    fund.
 
   The Trust entered into an Agreement and Plan of Reorganization (the
   "Agreement") with the Paragon Portfolio ("Paragon"), a Massachusetts business
   trust. Pursuant to the Agreement all of the assets and liabilities of each
   Paragon Fund transferred to a fund of The One Group in exchange for shares of
   the corresponding fund of The One Group. The statements of changes in net
   assets and financial highlights for periods prior to the reorganization,
   March 25, 1996, are presented for funds of The One Group only.
 
   The Funds' investment objectives are as follows:

Ultra Short-Term Income Fund         A high level of current income consistent with low volatility
                                     of principal by investing in a diversified portfolio of
                                     short-term investment grade securities.
Limited Volatility Bond Fund         Current income consistent with the preservation of capital
                                     through investment in high and medium-grade fixed-income
                                     securities.
Intermediate Bond Fund               Current income consistent with the preservation of capital
                                     through investments in high and medium-grade fixed-income
                                     securities with intermediate maturities.

                                     medium-grade fixed-income securities.

2.  SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES:
 
    The following is a summary of significant accounting policies followed by
    the Trust in preparation of its financial statements. The policies are in
    conformity with generally accepted accounting principles. The preparation of
    financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions
    that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of
    the financial statements and the reported amounts of income and expenses for
    the period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
 
     SECURITY VALUATION
 
     Corporate debt securities and debt securities of U.S. issuers (other than
     short-term investments maturing in 60 days or less), including municipal
     securities, are valued on the basis of valuations provided by dealers or by
     an independent pricing service approved by the Board of Trustees.

(Unaudited)
     60 days or less are valued at amortized cost, which approximates market
     value. Futures contracts are valued at the settlement price established
     each day by the board of trade or an exchange on which they are traded.
     Options traded on an exchange are valued using the last sale price or, in
     the absence of a sale, the last offering price. Options traded
     over-the-counter are valued using dealer-supplied valuations. Investments
     for which there are no such quotations or valuations are valued at fair
     value as determined in good faith by the Adviser under the direction of the
     Board of Trustees.
 
     REPURCHASE AGREEMENTS
 
     The Funds may invest in repurchase agreements with institutions that the
     Adviser has determined are creditworthy. Each repurchase agreement is
     recorded at cost. The Fund requires that the securities purchased in a
     repurchase agreement transaction be transferred to the custodian in a
     manner sufficient to enable the Fund to obtain those securities in the
     event of a counterparty default. The seller, under the repurchase
     agreement, is required to maintain the value of the securities held at not
     less than the repurchase price, including accrued interest. Repurchase
     agreements are considered to be loans by a fund in the 1940 Act.
 
     WRITTEN OPTIONS
 
     The Funds may write covered call or put options for which premiums received
     are recorded as liabilities and are subsequently adjusted to the current
     value of the options written. Premiums received from writing options which
     expire are treated as realized gains. Premiums received from writing
     options, which are either exercised or closed, are offset against the
     proceeds received or amount paid on the transaction to determine realized
     gains or losses.
 
     FUTURES CONTRACTS
 
     The Funds may enter into futures contracts for the delayed delivery of
     securities at a fixed price at some future date or for the change in the
     value of a specified financial index over a predetermined time period. Cash
     or securities are deposited with brokers in order to maintain a position.
     Subsequent payments made or received by the fund based on the daily change
     in the market value of the position are recorded as unrealized appreciation
     or depreciation until the contract is closed out, at which time the
     appreciation or depreciation is realized.
 
     INDEXED SECURITIES
 
     The Funds may invest in indexed securities whose value is linked either
     directly or inversely to changes in foreign currencies, interest rates,
     commodities, indices or other reference instruments. Indexed securities may
     be more volatile than the referenced instrument itself, but any loss is
     limited to the amount of the original investment.
 
     MORTGAGE ROLLS
 
     The Funds may enter into mortgage "dollar rolls" in which the Fund sells
     mortgage-backed securities for delivery in the current month and
     simultaneously contracts to repurchase substantially similar securities on
     a specified future date. During the roll period, the Fund forgoes principal
     and interest paid on the mortgage-backed securities. The Fund is
     compensated by fee income or the difference between the current sales price
     and the lower forward price for the future purchase.
 
     SECURITIES LENDING
 
     To generate additional income, the Funds may lend up to 33% of securities
     in which they are invested pursuant to agreements requiring that the loan
     be continuously secured by cash, U.S. Government or U.S. Government

     Agency securities, shares of an investment trust or mutual fund, or any
     combination of cash and such securities as collateral equal at all times to
     at least 100% of the market value plus accrued interest on the securities
     lent. The Funds continue to earn interest on securities lent while
     simultaneously seeking to earn interest on the investment of collateral.
     Collateral is marked to market daily to provide a level collateral at least
     equal to the market value of securities lent. There may be risks of delay
     in recovery of the securities or even loss of rights in the collateral
     should the borrower of the securities fail financially. However, loans will
     be made only to borrowers deemed by the Adviser to be of good standing and
     creditworthy under guidelines established by the Board of Trustees and
     when, in the judgement of the Adviser, the consideration which can be
     earned currently from such securities loans justifies the attendant risk.
     Loans are subject to termination by the Funds or the borrower at any time,
     and are, therefore, not considered to be illiquid investments. As of
     December 31, 1996, the following Funds had securities with the following
     market values on loan (amounts in thousands):

</TABLE>
 
     The loaned securities were fully collateralized by cash and U.S. Government
     securities as of December 31, 1996.
 
     SECURITY TRANSACTIONS AND RELATED INCOME
 
     Security transactions are accounted for on a trade date basis. Net realized
     gains or losses from sales of securities are determined on the specific
     identification cost method. Interest income and expenses are recognized on
     the accrual basis. Dividends are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Interest
     income, including any discount or premium, is accrued as earned using the
     effective interest method.
 
     EXPENSES
 
     Expenses directly attributable to a Fund are charged directly to that Fund,
     while the expenses which are attributable to more than one fund of the
     Trust are allocated among the respective Funds. Each class of shares bears
     its pro-rata portion of expenses attributable to its series, except that
     each class separately bears expenses related specifically to that class,
     such as distribution fees.
 
     DIVIDENDS AND DISTRIBUTIONS TO SHAREHOLDERS
 
     Dividends from net investment income are declared and paid monthly for the
     Funds. Net realized capital gains, if any, are distributed at least
     annually. Dividends are declared separately for each class. No class has
     preferential dividend rights; differences in per share dividend rates are
     generally due to differences in separate class expenses.
 
     Distributions from net investment income and from net capital gains are
     determined in accordance with income tax regulations which may differ from
     generally accepted accounting principles. These differences are primarily
     due to differing treatments for mortgage-backed securities, expiring
     capital loss carryforwards, and deferrals of certain losses. Permanent book
     and tax basis differences have been reclassified among the components of
     net assets.

     ORGANIZATION COSTS
 
     Costs incurred by the Trust in connection with its organization, including
     the fees and expenses of registering and qualifying its shares for
     distribution have been deferred and are being amortized using the
     straight-line method over a period of five years beginning with the
     commencement of each Fund's operations. All such costs, which are
     attributable to more than one fund of the Trust, have been allocated among
     the respective funds pro-rata, based on the relative net assets of each
     Fund. In the event that any of the initial shares are redeemed during such
     period by any holder thereof, the related fund will be reimbursed by such
     holder for any unamortized organization costs in the proportion as the
     number of initial shares being redeemed bears to the number of initial
     shares outstanding at the time of redemption.
 
     FEDERAL INCOME TAXES
 
     The Trust treats each Fund as a separate entity for Federal income tax
     purposes. Each Fund intends to continue to qualify as a regulated
     investment company by complying with the provisions available to certain
     investment companies as defined in applicable sections of the Internal
     Revenue Code, and to make distributions from net investment income and from

3.  SHARES OF BENEFICIAL INTEREST:
 
    The Trust has an unlimited number of shares of beneficial interest, with no
    par value, which may, without shareholder approval, be divided into an
    unlimited number of series of such shares and any series may be classified
    or reclassified into one or more classes. Currently, shares of the Trust are
    registered to be offered through forty series and four classes: Fiduciary,
    Class A, Class B and Service. As of December 31, 1996, no shareholders were
    in the Service Class. Shareholders are entitled to one vote for each full
    share held and will vote in the aggregate and not by class or series, except
    as otherwise expressly required by law or when the Board of Trustees has
    determined that the matter to be voted on affects only the interest of
    shareholders of a particular class or series. The following is a summary of
    transactions in Fund shares for the periods ended December 31, 1996 and June
    30, 1996:

4.  INVESTMENT ADVISORY, ADMINISTRATIVE, AND DISTRIBUTION AGREEMENTS:
 
    The Trust and Banc One Investment Advisors Corporation (the "Adviser") are
    parties to an investment advisory agreement under which the Adviser is
    entitled to receive an annual fee, computed daily and paid monthly, equal to
    the following percentages of the Funds' average net assets: 0.60% of the
    Income Bond Fund, the Intermediate Bond Fund and the Limited Volatility Bond
    Fund; 0.55% of the Ultra Short-Term Income Fund; and 0.45% of the Government
    Bond Fund.
 
   The Trust and The One Group Services Company (the "Administrator"), a
   wholly-owned subsidiary of The BISYS Group, Inc., are parties to an
   administrative agreement under which the Administrator provides services for
   a fee that is computed daily and paid monthly, at an annual rate of 0.20% on
   the first $1.5 billion of Trust net assets (excluding the Investor Growth
   Fund, the Investor Growth & Income Fund, the Investor Conservative Growth
   Fund and the Investor Balanced Fund (the "Investor Funds") and the Treasury
   Only Money Market Fund and the Government Money Market Fund--the
   "Institutional Money Market Funds"); 0.18% on the next $0.5 billion of Trust
   net assets (excluding the Investor Funds and the Institutional Money Market
   Funds); and 0.16% of Trust net assets (excluding the Investor Funds and the
   Institutional Money Market Funds) over $2 billion. The Adviser also serves as
   Sub-Administrator to each fund of the Trust, pursuant to an agreement between
   the Administrator and the Adviser. Pursuant to this agreement, the Adviser
   performs many of the Administrator's duties, for which the Advisor receives a
   fee paid by the Administrator. Prior to March 25, 1996, Goldman Sachs Asset
   Management served as administrator of Paragon. The terms of the current
   administration agreement are substantially the same as the former
   administration agreement.
 
   The Trust and The One Group Services Company (the "Distributor") are parties
   to a distribution agreement under which shares of the Funds are sold on a
   continuous basis. Class A and Class B Shares are subject to distribution and
   shareholder services plans (the "Plans") pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the
   1940 Act. As provided in the Plans, the Trust will pay the Distributor a fee
   of 0.35% of the average daily net assets of Class A Shares of each of the
   Funds and 1.00% of the average daily net assets of the Class B Shares of each
   of the Funds. Currently, the Distributor has voluntarily agreed to limit
   payments under the Plans to 0.25% of average daily net assets of the Class A
   Shares of each Fund, 0.75% of average daily net assets of the Class B Shares
   of Ultra Short-Term Income Fund and Limited Volatility Bond Fund and 0.90% of
   average daily net assets of Intermediate Bond Fund, Government Bond Fund and
   Income Bond Fund. Up to 0.25% of the fees payable under the Plans may be used
   as compensation for shareholder services by the Distributor and/or financial
   institutions and intermediaries. Fees paid under the Plans may be applied by
   the Distributor toward (i) compensation for its services in connection with
   distribution assistance or provision of shareholder services; or (ii)
   payments to financial institutions and intermediaries such as banks
   (including affiliates of the Adviser), brokers, dealers and other
   institutions, including the Distributor's affiliates and subsidiaries as
   compensation for services or reimbursement of expenses incurred in connection
   with distribution assistance or provision of shareholder services. Fiduciary
   Class Shares of each Fund are offered without distribution fees. For the
   period ended December 31, 1996, the Distributor received $279,753 from
   commissions earned on sales of Class A Shares and redemptions of Class B
   Shares, of which the Distributor re-allowed $189,433 to affiliated
   broker-dealers of the Funds.
 
   Prior to January 2, 1996, Premier Investment Advisors, L.L.C. ("Premier")
   served as investment adviser and Goldman Sachs & Company served as
   distributor to Paragon. Pursuant to the approval of the Board of Trustees of
   Paragon on October 31, 1995 and its shareholders on December 20, 1995,
   Paragon entered into an investment advisory agreement with the Adviser and a
   distribution agreement with the Distributor effective January 2, 1996. The
   terms of the investment advisory agreements with Premier and with the Adviser
   and the distribution agreements with Goldman Sachs & Company and the
   Distributor were substantially the same.

6.  FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS:
 
    Investing in financial instruments such as written options, futures,
    structured notes and indexed securities involves risk in excess of the
    amounts reflected in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. The face or
    contract amounts reflect the extent of the involvement the Funds have in the
    particular class of instrument. Risks associated with these instruments
    include an imperfect correlation between the movements in the price of the
    instruments and the price of the underlying securities and interest rates,
    an illiquid secondary market for the instruments or inability of
    counterparties to perform under the terms of the contract. The Funds enter
    into these contracts primarily as a means to hedge against adverse
    fluctuations in securities.
 
7.  REORGANIZATIONS:
 
    The Trust entered an Agreement and Plan of Reorganization ("Reorganization")
    with Paragon pursuant to which all of the assets and liabilities of each
    Paragon Fund transferred to a fund of The One Group in exchange for shares
    of the corresponding fund of The One Group. The Paragon Short-Term
    Government Fund and the Paragon Intermediate-Term Bond Fund transferred
    their assets and liabilities to the Limited Volatility Bond Fund and the
    Government Bond Fund, respectively.
