Diversification -- Money Market Fund. The Money Market Fund may
not invest more than 5% of its total assets in First Tier money market
instruments (as defined in the Money Market Fund's Prospectus) of any one
issuer other than the U.S. Government, its agencies and instrumentalities;
however, the Money Market Fund may invest more than 5% of its total assets
in First Tier securities of a single issuer for a period of up to three
business days after the purchase thereof provided that the Money Market
Fund may not make more than one investment in accordance with the
foregoing provision at any time. The Money Market Fund may not invest
more than (1) the greater of 1% of its total assets or $1 million in
securities issued by any single issuer of Second Tier securities (as
defined in the Money Market Fund's Prospectus); and (2) 5% of its total
assets in Second Tier securities. The Money Market Fund also may not
purchase more than 10% of any class of securities of any issuer. All debt
securities of an issuer are considered as one class.
Diversification -- Municipal Fund. The Municipal Fund may not,
with respect to 75% of its total assets, invest more than 5% of its total
assets in money market instruments of any one issuer other than the U.S.
Government, its agencies, or instrumentalities. The Municipal Fund may

agreements with maturities longer than seven days, certain time deposits,
and securities which are restricted as to disposition under federal
securities laws. The Municipal Fund may not commit more than 15% of the
Municipal Fund's net assets to illiquid obligations, including repurchase
agreements with maturities longer than seven days, certain time deposits,
and securities which are restricted as to disposition under federal

the Municipal Fund will not commit more than 10% of its net assets to such
illiquid securities.
