PROXY STATEMENT
===============================================================================
Dear Shareholders:
Please take the opportunity to read this proxy statement regarding the proposed
Agreement and Plan of Reorganization (the "Reorganization") between The
Parkstone Group of Funds and Armada Funds. A special meeting of shareholders
will be held on Wednesday, May 10, 2000 at One Freedom Valley Drive, Oaks,
Pennsylvania to vote on this issue.
On November 17, 1999, the Board of Trustees of The Parkstone Group of Funds
unanimously approved this Reorganization. Both fund complexes are advised by
National City Investment Management Company, a pool of talented investment
professionals from the former First of America Investment Co. and National
City's Asset Management Group.
The Reorganization would combine the portfolios of The Parkstone Group of Funds
into corresponding portfolios of Armada Funds. By consolidating substantially
similar portfolios, the funds may be able to achieve economies of scale that
could lower costs and shareholders' expenses. In addition, a reorganization of
these fund families is expected to be a tax-free event for our shareholders.
To cast your vote, one proxy card has been enclosed for each fund you own.
Please vote your shares by completing and signing the proxy card(s), and
returning them in the enclosed, postage-paid envelope. For information about
alternative voting options available to you, including touch-tone telephone and
Internet voting, please refer to your proxy card(s).
It is important that you vote each proxy card prior to the shareholders meeting
on May 10, 2000. As the meeting date approaches, you may receive a call from
Shareholder Communications Corporation ("SCC") encouraging you to exercise your
right to vote if you have not voted already. The Parkstone Group of Funds has
enlisted the services of SCC, a professional proxy solicitation firm, to assist
shareholders with the proxy process.
We value your relationship with The Parkstone Group of Funds and hope you will
vote for the proposed Reorganization. If you have any questions regarding this
proxy statement, please call our Investor Services line at 800-451-8377. If you
would like to learn more about Armada Funds, you can visit its website at

Sincerely,
Robert D. Neary

IMPORTANT INFORMATION TO HELP YOU UNDERSTAND AND VOTE ON THE PROPOSAL
QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS ABOUT THE REORGANIZATION PROPOSAL.
===============================================================================
1. WHAT PROPOSAL AM I BEING ASKED TO VOTE ON?
You are being asked to approve a reorganization of the portfolios of The
Parkstone Group of Funds ("Parkstone") into corresponding portfolios of the
Armada Funds ("Armada").
2. WHAT ARE THE REASONS FOR THIS REORGANIZATION?
In March of 1998, First of America Bank Corporation completed a merger
with National City Corporation. As a result of this merger, the investment
advisor for BOTH Parkstone and Armada fund families became National City
Investment Management Company ("IMC"). IMC is a registered investment advisor
with a distinguished heritage. As an affiliate of National City Corporation,
IMC has access to exceptional financial and technological resources. As a
separate entity, IMC is free to concentrate on the business of investing.
By combining the separate Armada and Parkstone mutual fund families into a
single, larger consolidated group of funds, shareholders will be offered a more
complete selection of portfolios. Additionally, by consolidating investment
portfolios that are substantially similar, the efficiency of certain
operational procedures can be improved, and the funds may be able to achieve
economies of scale that will lead to lower costs and expenses.
3. HAS PARKSTONE'S BOARD OF TRUSTEES APPROVED THE PROPOSAL?
Yes. The Board of Trustees has unanimously approved the proposal and
recommends that you vote to approve it.
4. WHICH PARKSTONE FUNDS WILL BE REORGANIZING INTO WHICH ARMADA FUNDS?
This proxy statement includes an overview of the Fund-to-Fund
reorganization as well as a detailed description of the similarities and
differences that may exist between each Parkstone portfolio and the
corresponding Armada portfolio into which it is being combined. Careful
attention was paid to combining Funds with similar investment styles and
objectives.
Pending shareholder approval, the expanded Armada Funds family will
consist of a mix of 23 consolidated funds as well as five additional funds that
have been added to the family because of the reorganization.
5. IS THE REORGANIZATION A TAXABLE EVENT FOR FEDERAL INCOME TAX PURPOSES?
Typically, the exchange of shares due to a merger does not result in a gain
or loss for federal income tax purposes.

===============================================================================
QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS ABOUT
SHAREHOLDER ACCOUNTS AND REPORTS.
1. I HAVE AN IRA ACCOUNT WITH PARKSTONE. HOW WILL THIS REORGANIZATION AFFECT MY
INVESTMENT?
The Custodian for all Parkstone and Armada IRAs will remain the same.
Having the same Custodian will help with a smooth transition of accounts from
Parkstone to Armada if the reorganization is approved. No additional paperwork
will be necessary to transfer your IRA assets from a Parkstone portfolio to the
corresponding Armada portfolio.
2. HOW WILL YOU DETERMINE THE NUMBER OF SHARES OF THE CORRESPONDING ARMADA
PORTFOLIO THAT I WILL RECEIVE?
Parkstone shareholders will receive the number of full and fractional
shares of the Armada portfolio(s) that correspond to their Parkstone
portfolio(s), that is equal in value to the net asset value of their shares of
the Parkstone portfolio(s) as last determined on the business day immediately
preceding the closing date of the reorganization. Therefore, your market value
will remain the same, although your share amount may change. It is anticipated
that the closing will occur in early June 2000.
3. WILL I STILL RECEIVE MY PARKSTONE FUNDS ANNUAL REPORT?
It is anticipated that the reorganization will take place closely
following the fiscal year-end for both fund complexes, May 31, 2000.
Therefore, Parkstone Funds is legally required to distribute fiscal
year-end information to only those shareholders of the five proposed continuing
funds: U.S. Government Income Fund, Large Capitalization Fund, Mid
Capitalization Fund, Michigan Municipal Bond Fund and the Treasury Fund.
Copies of both the Armada Funds Annual Report and the Parkstone Annual
Report will be available free of charge after July 30, 2000 by calling
1-800-622-FUND (3863). The Armada Funds Annual Report will also be on the
website at www.armadafunds.com.
4. WILL THE REORGANIZATION AFFECT MY DIVIDEND PAYMENTS?
The payment frequency of dividends from net income for the Balanced
Allocation Fund and each of the equity funds will change. Previously, these
funds paid dividends each month. Following the reorganization, shareholders of
the former Parkstone Equity Income Fund, Balanced Allocation Fund, Large
Capitalization Fund and the Mid Capitalization Fund will receive dividends on a
quarterly basis. The Small Capitalization Fund and International Equity Fund
shareholders will receive dividends annually.
The dividend payment schedules for the Income, Tax-Free Income and Money
Market Funds will not change.PAR-M-066-01000 (3/00)
QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS ABOUT VOTING.
1. HOW DO I VOTE MY SHARES?
You can vote your shares by completing and signing the enclosed proxy card,
and sending it in the enclosed postage-paid envelope.
Please refer to your individual proxy card for information about other
convenient voting options that may be available to you, such as touch-tone
telephone and Internet voting.
If you need any assistance, or have any questions regarding the proposal
or how to vote your shares, please call Parkstone Funds at 1-800-451-8377.
2. WHAT WILL HAPPEN IF THERE ARE NOT ENOUGH VOTES TO REACH A QUORUM BY THE
SCHEDULED SHAREHOLDER MEETING DATE?
In order to receive sufficient votes to establish a quorum, Shareholder
Communications Corporation (the proxy solicitor), Parkstone Funds, SEI
Investments Mutual Funds Services, or State Street Bank and Trust Company
("BFDS") may contact you by mail or telephone. We encourage shareholders to
vote as soon as they review the enclosed proxy materials to avoid additional
mailings or telephone calls that could result in additional costs to the Funds.
If there are not sufficient votes to approve the proposal by the time of the
shareholder meeting (May 10, 2000), the meeting may be adjourned to permit
further solicitation of proxy votes.

This Combined Prospectus/Proxy Statement is furnished in connection with the
solicitation of proxies by the Board of Trustees of The Parkstone Group of Funds
("Parkstone") in connection with a Special Meeting (the "Meeting") of
Shareholders ("Shareholders") to be held on May 10, 2000 at 3:00 p.m. (Eastern
time) at SEI Investments Co., One Freedom Valley Drive, Oaks, Pennsylvania,
19456, at which Shareholders will be asked to consider and approve a proposed
Agreement and Plan of Reorganization dated November 17, 1999 (the
"Reorganization Agreement"), by and between Parkstone and Armada Funds
("Armada") and the matters contemplated therein. A copy of the Reorganization
Agreement is attached as Appendix A.
Parkstone and Armada are both open-end, management investment companies.
National City Investment Management Company ("IMC"), formerly named First of
America Investment Corporation ("First of America"), currently provides
investment advisory services to Parkstone and Armada. IMC reflects a combination
of National City Bank's investment management group and First of America, an
investment advisory subsidiary of First of America Bank Corporation. First of
America formerly provided investment advisory services to Parkstone. In
reviewing the proposed reorganization (the "Reorganization"), the Parkstone
Board considered the merger of First of America Bank Corporation and National
City Corporation, the parent corporation of National City Bank ("National
City"). National City formerly provided investment advisory services to some of
the existing Armada investment portfolios (collectively, the "Existing Armada
Funds"). The Parkstone Board also considered the effect of such merger on
Parkstone; the recommendations of IMC and National City with respect to the
proposed consolidation of Parkstone and Armada; the fact that the Reorganization
would constitute a tax-free reorganization; and the fact that the interests of
Shareholders would not be diluted as a result of the Reorganization.
The Reorganization Agreement provides that initially each of the following
eleven investment portfolios of Parkstone (collectively, the "Reorganizing
Funds") will transfer substantially all its assets and known liabilities to the
Existing Armada Fund identified below opposite its name:

The Reorganization Agreement also provides that subsequently each of the
following five investment portfolios of Parkstone (collectively, the "Continuing
Funds") will transfer all its assets and known liabilities to the
newly-organized Armada investment portfolio (collectively, the "New Armada
Funds") identified below opposite its name:

Michigan Municipal Bond Fund* Michigan Municipal Bond Fund
Treasury Fund* Treasury Plus Money Market Fund
</TABLE>
- ---------------
* Denotes the surviving or continuing portfolio for purposes of maintaining the
financial statements and performance history in the post-reorganization funds.
In exchange for the transfers of these assets and liabilities, Armada will issue
shares in the 16 Armada investment portfolios listed above (collectively, the
"Armada Funds") to the corresponding Parkstone investment portfolios listed
above (collectively, the "Parkstone Funds"). The initial transaction between the
Reorganizing Funds and the Existing Armada Funds is referred to herein as the
"Reorganizing Funds Transaction" and the subsequent transaction between the
Continuing Funds and the New Armada Funds is referred to herein as the
"Continuing Funds Transaction." The transactions are expected to occur on or
after June 9, 2000.
Most of the Parkstone Funds have three classes of shares outstanding. Armada
offers comparable classes of shares. Holders of each class of shares of a
Parkstone Fund will receive the class of shares of the corresponding Armada Fund
as set forth in the tables on pages 12 and 13 under "Information Relating to the
Proposed Reorganization -- Description of the Reorganization Agreement."
The Parkstone Funds will make liquidating distributions of the Armada Funds'
shares to the Shareholders of the Parkstone Funds, so that a holder of a class
of shares in a Parkstone Fund will receive a class of shares (as described
herein) of the corresponding Armada Fund with the same aggregate net asset value
as the Shareholder had in the Parkstone Fund immediately before the transaction.
Following the Reorganization, Shareholders of the Parkstone Funds will be
shareholders of their corresponding Armada Funds, and Parkstone will be
terminated under state law and the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended.
The Existing Armada Funds currently are conducting investment operations as
described in this Combined Prospectus/Proxy Statement. The New Armada Funds have
recently been organized for the purpose of continuing the investment operations
of the Parkstone Large Capitalization Fund, U.S. Government Income Fund, Mid
Capitalization Fund, Michigan Municipal Bond Fund and Treasury Fund.
This Combined Prospectus/Proxy Statement sets forth the information that a
Shareholder of Parkstone should know before voting on the Reorganization
Agreement (and related transactions) and should be retained for future
reference. The Prospectus relating to the Class I shares of the Existing Armada
Funds dated September 28, 1999, and/or the Prospectus relating to the Class A, B
and C shares of the Existing Armada Funds dated December 10, 1999, which
describe the operations of those Funds, accompany this Combined Prospectus/Proxy
Statement. Additional information is set forth in the Statement of Additional
Information relating to the Existing Armada Funds dated December 10, 1999, and
this Combined Proxy/Prospectus. Additional information relating to Parkstone is
set forth in the Prospectuses dated September 17, 1999, and the Statement of
Additional Information dated September 17, 1999. Each of these documents is on
file with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC"), and is available
without charge upon oral or written request by writing or calling either
Parkstone or Armada at the respective addresses or telephone numbers indicated
on the cover page. The information contained in the Prospectuses, the Armada
Statement of Additional Information and the Parkstone Statement of Additional
Information is incorporated herein by reference.
This Combined Prospectus/Proxy Statement constitutes the Proxy Statement of
Parkstone for the meeting of its Shareholders, and Armada Funds' Prospectus for
the shares of its Existing Armada Funds that have been registered with the SEC
and are to be issued in connection with the Reorganization. Because the New
Armada Funds will be deemed to be continuations of the Continuing Funds, this
Combined Prospectus/Proxy Statement does not constitute a prospectus for the
shares that will be issued in the Continuing Funds Transaction.
This Combined Prospectus/Proxy Statement is expected to first be sent to
Shareholders on or about March 31, 2000.

NO PERSON HAS BEEN AUTHORIZED TO GIVE ANY INFORMATION OR TO MAKE ANY
REPRESENTATIONS OTHER THAN THOSE CONTAINED IN THIS COMBINED PROSPECTUS/PROXY
STATEMENT AND IN THE MATERIALS EXPRESSLY INCORPORATED HEREIN BY REFERENCE AND,
IF GIVEN OR MADE, SUCH OTHER INFORMATION OR REPRESENTATIONS MUST NOT BE RELIED
UPON AS HAVING BEEN AUTHORIZED BY PARKSTONE OR ARMADA.
SHARES OF ARMADA ARE NOT BANK DEPOSITS OR OBLIGATIONS OF, OR GUARANTEED OR
ENDORSED OR OTHERWISE SUPPORTED BY, NATIONAL CITY INVESTMENT MANAGEMENT COMPANY,
ITS PARENT COMPANY, OR ANY OF ITS AFFILIATES, AND ARE NOT FEDERALLY INSURED OR
GUARANTEED BY THE U.S. GOVERNMENT, FEDERAL DEPOSIT INSURANCE CORPORATION, OR ANY
GOVERNMENTAL AGENCY OR STATE. INVESTMENT IN ARMADA INVOLVES RISKS, INCLUDING THE
POSSIBLE LOSS OF PRINCIPAL. THERE IS NO ASSURANCE THAT THE ARMADA MONEY MARKET
FUND, GOVERNMENT MONEY MARKET FUND, TAX EXEMPT MONEY MARKET FUND OR TREASURY
PLUS MONEY MARKET FUND WILL BE ABLE TO MAINTAIN A STABLE NET ASSET VALUE OF
$1.00 PER SHARE.
THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION HAS NOT APPROVED OR DISAPPROVED THESE
SECURITIES OR PASSED UPON THE ADEQUACY OF THIS PROSPECTUS. ANY REPRESENTATION TO
THE CONTRARY IS A CRIMINAL OFFENSE.

SUMMARY
The following is a summary of certain information relating to the proposed
Reorganization, the parties thereto and the related transactions, and is
qualified by reference to the more complete information contained elsewhere in
this Combined Prospectus/Proxy Statement, the Prospectuses and Statements of
Additional Information of Parkstone and Armada, and the Reorganization Agreement
attached to this Combined Prospectus/Proxy Statement as Appendix A. Parkstone's
most recent Annual Report or Semi-Annual Report to Shareholders may be obtained
free of charge by calling 1-800-451-8377 or writing One Freedom Valley Drive,
Oaks, Pennsylvania 19456. Armada's most recent Annual Report or Semi-Annual
Report to Shareholders may be obtained free of charge by calling 1-800-622-FUND
(3863) or writing One Freedom Valley Drive, Oaks, Pennsylvania 19456, or by
viewing on, or downloading from, the Armada Internet web site at
www.armadafunds.com.
PROPOSED REORGANIZATION. Based upon their evaluation of the relevant
information presented to them, and in light of their fiduciary duties under
federal and state law, Parkstone's and Armada's Boards, including their members
who are not "interested persons" within the meaning of the Investment Company
Act of 1940 (the "1940 Act"), have determined that the proposed Reorganization
is in the best interests of Parkstone's and Armada's Shareholders, respectively,
and that the interests of existing Shareholders of Parkstone and Armada,
respectively, will not be diluted as a result of such Reorganization.
The Cover Page and pages 1-10 hereof summarize the proposed Reorganization.
PARKSTONE'S BOARD OF TRUSTEES RECOMMENDS THAT SHAREHOLDERS VOTE "FOR" APPROVAL
OF THE REORGANIZATION AGREEMENT.
REASONS FOR THE REORGANIZATION. The primary reason for the Reorganization is
the merger of First of America Bank Corporation and National City Corporation.
The merger was completed March 31, 1998. The Reorganization presents the
opportunity to combine the separate Parkstone and Armada mutual fund families
into a single, larger, consolidated group. IMC and National City have
recommended that each of the Parkstone Funds be reorganized as described in this
Combined Prospectus/Proxy Statement. In light of this recommendation, after
consideration of the reasons therefor and the proposed operations of the
combined funds after the Reorganization, and in consideration of the fact that
the Reorganization will be tax-free and will not dilute the interests of the
shareholders of Parkstone (the "Parkstone Shareholders"), the Board of Trustees
of Parkstone has authorized the Agreement and Plan of Reorganization and
recommended approval of the Reorganization by Shareholders.
FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSEQUENCES. Drinker Biddle & Reath LLP, independent
counsel to Armada and to its Board of Trustees, and to Parkstone and its Board
of Trustees, will issue an opinion (based on certain assumptions) as of the
effective time of each of the Reorganizing Funds Transaction and the Continuing
Funds Transaction that the transactions will not give rise to the recognition of
income, gain or loss for federal income tax purposes to the Parkstone Funds or
Armada Funds or their respective shareholders. See "Information Relating to the
Proposed Reorganization -- Federal Income Tax Consequences."
OVERVIEW OF THE PARKSTONE FUNDS AND ARMADA FUNDS. Since the merger of First of
America Bank Corporation and National City Corporation, Parkstone and Armada
have acted to align their organizations. Accordingly, at this time both
Parkstone and Armada have the same: investment advisor; administrator;
distributor; transfer agent; and custodian, as described in more detail below.
There are no material differences between the investment objectives and policies
of the Continuing Funds and the corresponding New Armada Funds. The investment
objectives and policies of the Reorganizing Funds are similar to those of the
corresponding Existing Armada Funds.
PARKSTONE PRIME OBLIGATIONS FUND AND ARMADA MONEY MARKET FUND
Parkstone Prime Obligations Fund seeks to provide current income, with liquidity
and stability of principal. Armada Money Market Fund's investment objective is
to seek as high a level of current income as is consistent with liquidity and
stability of principal. Each pursues its investment objective by investing in a
diversified portfolio of high quality money market instruments and other
comparable instruments.
PARKSTONE U.S. GOVERNMENT OBLIGATIONS FUND AND ARMADA GOVERNMENT MONEY MARKET
FUND
Parkstone U.S. Government Obligations Fund seeks to provide current income, with
liquidity and stability of principal by investing at least 65% of its total
assets in short-term U.S. Treasury bills, notes and other obligations issued or
guaranteed by the U.S. Government or its agencies or instrumentalities. Armada
Government Money Market Fund's investment objective
1
<PAGE> 12

instrumentalities.
PARKSTONE TAX-FREE FUND AND ARMADA TAX EXEMPT MONEY MARKET FUND

stability of principal. Each pursues its investment objective by investing at
least 80% of its assets in municipal securities the interest on which is
considered exempt from federal income tax.
PARKSTONE BOND FUND AND ARMADA BOND FUND
The investment objective of both Parkstone Bond Fund and Armada Bond Fund is to
provide current income and preservation of capital by investing in a portfolio
of high- and medium-grade fixed-income securities. Both Funds will normally
invest at least 80% of the value of their total assets in investment grade debt
securities of all types, and expect to maintain a dollar-weighted average
portfolio maturity of four to twelve years.
PARKSTONE LIMITED MATURITY BOND FUND AND ARMADA LIMITED MATURITY BOND FUND
(FORMERLY THE ARMADA ENHANCED INCOME FUND)
In connection with the Reorganization, Armada Enhanced Income Fund is expected
to change its name to Armada Limited Maturity Bond Fund. References in this
Combined Prospectus/Proxy Statement hereinafter will be to the Fund's new name.
The investment objective of both Parkstone Limited Maturity Bond Fund and Armada
Limited Maturity Bond Fund is to provide current income as well as preservation
of capital by investing in a portfolio of high- and medium-grade fixed-income
securities. Both Funds will normally invest at least 80% of the value of their
total assets in investment grade debt securities of all types, and expect to
maintain a dollar-weighted average portfolio maturity of one to five years.
PARKSTONE INTERMEDIATE GOVERNMENT OBLIGATIONS FUND AND ARMADA INTERMEDIATE BOND
FUND
Parkstone Intermediate Government Obligations Fund seeks to provide current
income as well as preservation of capital by investing primarily in U.S.
government securities. Armada Intermediate Bond Fund's investment objective is
to provide current income as well as preservation of capital by investing in a
portfolio of high- and medium-grade fixed income securities. Both Funds expect
to maintain a dollar-weighted average portfolio maturity of three to ten years.
PARKSTONE EQUITY INCOME FUND AND ARMADA EQUITY INCOME FUND
The investment objective of both Parkstone Equity Income Fund and Armada Equity
Income Fund is to provide capital appreciation with a diversified portfolio of
publicly traded equity securities which, in the aggregate, provide an above-
average current yield. Both Funds normally invest at least 80% of their total
assets in common stocks, and securities convertible into common stocks, of
companies that have the ability to pay dividends with a yield above the S&P 500
Composite Index.
PARKSTONE SMALL CAPITALIZATION FUND AND ARMADA SMALL CAP GROWTH FUND
The investment objective of both Parkstone Small Capitalization Fund and Armada
Small Cap Growth Fund is to provide capital appreciation with a diversified
portfolio of publicly traded smaller cap equity securities. Both Funds will
normally invest at least 80% of their respective total assets in securities of
companies with small stock market capitalizations.
PARKSTONE INTERNATIONAL DISCOVERY FUND AND ARMADA INTERNATIONAL EQUITY FUND
The investment objective of both Parkstone International Discovery Fund and
Armada International Equity Fund is to provide capital appreciation by investing
in equity securities of foreign issuers. Both Funds will normally invest at
least 80% of their respective total assets in equity securities of foreign
issuers.

<PAGE> 13
PARKSTONE BALANCED ALLOCATION FUND AND ARMADA BALANCED ALLOCATION FUND
The investment objective of both Parkstone Balanced Allocation Fund and Armada
Balanced Allocation Fund is to provide long-term capital appreciation and
current income. Each pursues this investment objective by investing in any type
or class of securities, including all types of common stocks, fixed income
securities and securities convertible into common stocks.
PARKSTONE NATIONAL TAX EXEMPT BOND FUND AND ARMADA NATIONAL TAX EXEMPT BOND FUND
The investment objective of both Parkstone National Tax Exempt Bond Fund and
Armada National Tax Exempt Bond Fund is to provide current interest income
exempt from federal income tax as is consistent with conservation of capital.
Each pursues this investment objective by investing at least 80% of its total
assets in debt securities that generate income exempt from federal tax.
See "Comparison of Investment Policies and Risk Factors" below and the Parkstone
and Armada Prospectuses, which are incorporated by reference herein, for a
description of the similarities and differences between the investment
objectives and policies of the Reorganizing Funds and the corresponding Existing
Armada Funds.

* The contractual Advisory Fees for these Funds were changed in October, 1999.
Pursuant to the Parkstone investment advisory contract, and subject to such
policies as Parkstone's Board of Trustees may determine, IMC furnishes a
continuous investment program for each Fund. IMC also directs the investments of
the Parkstone Funds in accordance with each Fund's investment objectives,
policies and limitations, and creates and maintains all necessary books and
records.
SEI Investments Mutual Funds Services (the "Administrator") serves as the
administrator for each Parkstone Fund. For its services, the Administrator
receives a fee, calculated daily and paid periodically, at the annual rate of
0.10% of the average daily net assets of each Parkstone Fund, or such other fee
as may be agreed upon from time to time in writing by Parkstone and the
Administrator. National City Bank serves as sub-administrator for each Parkstone
Fund under a Sub-Administrator Agreement with the Administrator and provides
certain services as may be requested by the Administrator from time to time. For
its services as sub-administrator, National City Bank receives from the
Administrator a fee not to exceed 0.02% of each Fund's average daily net assets.

State Street Bank and Trust Company serves as Parkstone's transfer agent and
dividend disbursing agent. Effective April 3, 2000, the Administrator also
provides certain fund accounting services to Parkstone. Prior to that date,
those services were provided by BISYS Fund Services Ohio, Inc. ("BISYS Ohio").
Union Bank of California, N.A. provides subcustodial services. National City
Bank serves as custodian for all Parkstone Funds.
SEI Investments Distribution Co. (the "Distributor"), with principal offices
located at One Freedom Valley Drive, Oaks, Pennsylvania 19456, serves as the
principal underwriter and distributor for Parkstone. The Distributor receives no
fee under its distribution agreement with Parkstone, but it may retain some or
all of any sales charges imposed upon the Investor A or Investor B Shares, and
may receive compensation under the distribution and shareholder services plans
described below.
Parkstone has adopted various distribution and shareholder services plans (the
"Plans") pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act. Parkstone has adopted an
Investor A Distribution and Shareholder Service Plan (the "Investor A Plan") and
an Investor B Distribution and Shareholder Service Plan (the "Investor B Plan").
Under each Plan, each Fund is authorized to pay or reimburse the Distributor for
certain expenses that are incurred in connection with shareholder and
distribution services. Such amounts may be used by the Distributor to pay banks
and their affiliates (including IMC and its affiliates), and other institutions,
including participating broker-dealers ("Participating Organizations") for
administration, distribution and/or shareholder service assistance. Under the
Plans, a Participating Organization may include the Distributor, its
subsidiaries and affiliates.
The Investor A Plan authorizes each Fund to pay the Distributor a shareholder
and distribution fee in an amount not to exceed on an annual basis 0.25% of the
average daily net assets of Investor A Shares of such Fund. The Investor B Plan
authorizes each Fund to pay the Distributor a distribution fee in an amount not
to exceed on an annual basis 0.75% of the average daily net assets of Investor B
Shares of such Fund, plus a service fee in an amount not to exceed on an annual
basis 0.25% of the average daily net assets of Investor B Shares of such Fund.
Pursuant to the Plans, the Distributor may enter into agreements with
Participating Organizations for providing shareholder and distribution services
to their customers who are the record or beneficial owners of such shares. The
shareholder and distribution services provided by Participating Organizations
pursuant to the Plans include: promoting the purchase of shares; processing
purchase, exchange or redemption requests from customers and placing orders with
the Distributor or the transfer agent; processing dividend and distribution
payments from a Fund on behalf of customers; providing information periodically
to customers, including information showing their positions; providing
sub-accounting; responding to inquiries from customers; arranging for bank
wires; and providing other similar services as may be reasonably requested.
The Plans are "compensation" type plans as opposed to "reimbursement" type
plans. Accordingly, payments under the Plans are based on the expressed fee
rather than on the specific amounts expended by the Distributor for distribution
purposes. The Distributor may be able to recover such amounts or may earn a
profit from payments made under the Plans.
Prior to September 11, 1998, BISYS was Parkstone's distributor. For the fiscal
period from September 14, 1998 to May 31, 1999, SEI received $845,227 pursuant
to the Investor A Plan to compensate dealers for their distribution and
shareholder service assistance, which represented 0.25% of the Parkstone Funds'
Investor A Shares average net assets during that period. For the fiscal period
from June 1, 1998 to September 20, 1998, BISYS received $612,647 pursuant to the
Investor A Plan to compensate dealers for their distribution and shareholder
service assistance, which represented 0.25% of the Parkstone Funds' Investor A
Shares average net assets during that period.
For the fiscal period from September 21, 1998 to May 31, 1999, the Distributor
received $226,863 pursuant to the Investor B Plan to compensate dealers for
their distribution and shareholder service assistance, which represented 0.75%
of the Parkstone Funds' Investor B Shares average net assets during that period.
For the fiscal period from June 1, 1998 to September 20, 1998, BISYS received
$469,426 pursuant to the Investor B Plan to compensate dealers for their
distribution and shareholder service assistance, which represented 0.75% of the
Parkstone Funds' Investor B Shares average net assets during that period.
PricewaterhouseCoopers, LLP ("PWC") has resigned as independent auditor of
Parkstone and will not provide an audit for the fiscal year ending May 31, 2000.
Ernst & Young, LLP, which provides similar services for Armada, has been
retained to provide this audit as of February 16, 2000. PWC's reports for the
past two years did not contain any adverse opinions, disclaimer of opinions,
modifications or qualifications. There have been no disagreements during the
past two years between PWC and Parkstone regarding any matter of accounting
principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or
procedure.

(1) Advisor fee or waiver changed during the period.
(2) These are the New Armada Funds which have not commenced operations as of the
date hereof.
(3) This is a new portfolio which commenced investment operations on July 10,
1998.
The gross advisory fees for the Armada Funds are the same as the gross advisory
fees for the corresponding Parkstone Funds.
Subject to the general supervision of Armada's Board of Trustees and in
accordance with each Fund's investment policies, IMC manages the investments of
each Fund, makes decisions with respect to and places orders for all purchases
and sales of a Fund's securities, and maintains certain records relating to such
purchases and sales.
See "Investment Advisers" in Armada's Prospectuses accompanying this Combined
Prospectus/Proxy Statement which are incorporated herein by reference, for
additional information on Armada's advisers and sub-adviser.
Administrative services are provided to Armada by the Administrator. For its
services, the Administrator receives a fee, calculated daily and paid monthly,
at the annual rate of 0.07% of the first $18 billion of the combined net assets
of each Armada Fund, and 0.06% of the combined net assets in excess of $18
billion. These fees are lower than the 0.10% currently paid by Parkstone for
these services. The Administrator is also entitled to be reimbursed for its
out-of-pocket expenses incurred on behalf of the funds. IMC serves as
sub-administrator for each Armada Fund. For its services as sub-administrator,
IMC is entitled to receive from the Administrator a fee, calculated daily and
paid monthly, at an annual rate of up to a maximum of 0.01% of the aggregate
average daily net assets of all of the investment funds of Armada up to $15
billion and 0.015% of the aggregate average daily net assets over $15 billion.
See "Administrator" in Armada's Statement of Additional Information, which is
incorporated herein by reference, for additional information on the
Administrator.
State Street Bank and Trust Company serves as Armada's transfer and dividend
disbursing agent. Custodial services are provided to Armada by National City
Bank. Foreign Custodian Services are provided by Union Bank of California. See
"Custodian Services and Transfer Agency Agreements" in Armada's Statement of
Additional Information, which is incorporated herein by reference, for
additional information about Armada's transfer agent and custodian.
SEI Investments Distribution Co. also serves as distributor of the shares of
Armada's Funds. Pursuant to Armada's Distribution Agreement dated May 1, 1998,
and Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act, Armada adopted a Service and Distribution
Plan relating to the I and A classes of shares ("I and A Plan") and a separate B
Shares Distribution and Servicing Plan
5
<PAGE> 16
relating to the B class of shares ("B Shares Plan"). Under the I and A Plan,
Armada reimburses the Distributor for services provided and expenses assumed in
providing Armada advertising, marketing, prospectus printing and other
distribution services at the annual rate not in excess of 0.10% of the average
net assets of its I and A classes. This fee is lower than the 0.25% distribution
fee which is applicable to the Parkstone Investor A Shares. Additionally, the
Distributor may receive front-end sales charges in connection with the sale of A
Shares.
Under the B Shares Plan, Armada pays the Distributor up to 0.75% annually of the
average daily net assets of each Fund's B Shares for the same types of services
provided and expenses assumed as in the I and A Plan. Additionally, the
Distributor is entitled to receive all contingent deferred sales charges
received in connection with the redemption of each Fund's B Shares. Such
compensation is payable monthly and accrued daily by each Fund's B Shares only.
Because theses fees are paid out of a Fund's assets on an on-going basis, over
time these fees will increase the cost of your investment and may cost you more
than paying other types of sales charges.
Under the Shareholder Services Plan relating to each Fund's A Shares and the B
Shares Plan, Armada enters into shareholder servicing agreements with certain
financial institutions. Pursuant to these agreements the institutions agree to
render shareholder administrative services to their customers who are the
beneficial owners of A or B Shares in consideration for the payment of up to
0.25% (on an annualized basis), with respect to the Bond, Intermediate Bond,
U.S. Government Income, Equity Income, Small Cap Growth, International Equity,
Balanced Allocation, Mid Cap Growth and Large Cap Ultra Funds, up to 0.15% (on
an annualized basis), with respect to the Money Market, Government Money Market,
Tax Exempt Money Market and Treasury Plus Money Market Funds and the Limited
Maturity Bond Fund (B Shares only), and up to 0.10% (on an annualized basis),
with respect to the Michigan Municipal Bond and National Tax Exempt Bond Funds
and the Limited Maturity Bond Fund (A Shares Only), of such respective shares'
average daily net asset value. As described herein, the service fees for the
Armada Funds are the same as, or in the case of certain portfolios, lower than,
the service fees for the corresponding Parkstone Funds. Persons entitled to
receive compensation for servicing A or B Shares may receive different
compensation with respect to those shares than with respect to I Shares in the
same Fund. Shareholder administrative services may include aggregating and
processing purchase and redemption orders, processing dividend payments from
Armada on behalf of customers, providing information periodically to customers
showing their position in A and B Shares, and providing sub-transfer agent
services or the information necessary for subaccounting, with respect to A and B
Shares beneficially owned by customers.
The I and A Plan is a "reimbursement" type plan whereas the B Shares Plan is a
"compensation" type plan. Accordingly, payments by A and I Shares under its Plan
are based on direct and indirect costs and expenses incurred, and payments by B
Shares are based on the expressed fee rather than on the specific amounts
expended by the Distributor for B Shares distribution purposes. The Distributor
may be able to recover such amounts or may earn a profit from payments made by B
Shares of Armada under the B Shares Plan. All Parkstone distribution and service
fees are "compensation" type fees.
For the fiscal year ended May 31, 1999, Armada paid, in the aggregate, fees to
the Distributor pursuant to the Distribution Plans of $801,528, $34,077, and
$3,099,926, respectively, which represent 0.04%, 0.75% and 0.04%, of the A, B
and I Shares average net assets during that period.
COMPARATIVE FEE AND EXPENSE TABLES. The tables presented at Appendix C -- Fee
and Expense Tables show (i) information regarding the fees and expenses paid by
each class of shares of each Parkstone Fund and of each class of shares of each
Armada Fund as of their most recent fiscal years, restated to reflect expenses
the Parkstone Fund and the Armada Fund, respectively, expect to incur during the
current fiscal year and (ii) estimated fees and expenses on a pro forma basis
giving effect to the proposed Reorganization.

RISK FACTORS
Because of the similarities of the investment objectives and policies of the
Reorganizing Funds and the corresponding Existing Armada Funds, management
believes that an investment in an Existing Armada Fund involves risks that are
similar to those of the corresponding Reorganizing Fund. There are, however,
differences between the Reorganizing Funds and the Existing Armada Funds as
noted above in "Summary -- Overview of the Parkstone Funds and Armada Funds" and
below under "Comparison of Investment Policies and Risk Factors." These
differences can present different risks.
The following discussion highlights the principal risk factors associated with
an investment in the Reorganizing Funds, the Continuing Funds and the Existing
Armada Funds and is qualified in its entirety by the more extensive discussion
of risk factors in "Comparison of Investment Policies and Risk Factors."
Market Risk -- (Armada International Equity, Small Cap Growth, Equity Income,
Balanced Allocation, Limited Maturity Bond, Mid Cap Growth and Large Cap Ultra
Funds. Parkstone International Discovery, Small Capitalization, Mid
Capitalization, Large Capitalization, Equity Income, and Balanced Allocation
Funds) Market risk is the risk that the value of a Fund's investments will
fluctuate as the stock or bond markets fluctuate and that prices overall will
decline over short or longer-term periods.
Interest Rate Risk -- (Armada Balanced Allocation, Bond, Intermediate Bond,
Limited Maturity Bond, National Tax Exempt Bond, Tax Exempt Money Market, Money
Market, Government Money Market, U.S. Government Income, Michigan Municipal Bond
and Treasury Plus Money Market Funds. Parkstone Equity Income, Balanced
Allocation, Bond, Intermediate Government Obligations, U.S. Government Income,
Limited Maturity Bond, Michigan Municipal Bond, National Tax Exempt Bond,
Tax-Free, Prime Obligations, U.S. Government Obligations and Treasury Funds)
Interest rate risk is the risk that changes in interest rates will affect the
value of a Fund's investments in income-producing, fixed-income or debt
securities. Increases in interest rates may cause the value of a Fund's
investments to decline.
10
<PAGE> 21
Credit Risk -- (Armada Balanced Allocation, Bond, Intermediate Bond, Limited
Maturity Bond, National Tax Exempt Bond, Tax Exempt Money Market, Money Market,
Mid Cap Growth and Michigan Municipal Bond Funds. Parkstone Equity Income,
Balanced Allocation, Bond, Intermediate Government Obligations, U.S. Government
Income, Limited Maturity Bond, Michigan Municipal Bond, National Tax Exempt
Bond, Tax-Free, Prime Obligations, and U.S. Government Obligations Funds.)
Credit risk is the risk that the issuer of a security will be unable or
unwilling to make timely payments of interest or principal, or to otherwise
honor its obligations.
Foreign Risk -- (Armada International Equity, Small Cap Growth, Equity Income,
Balanced Allocation, Intermediate Bond, Limited Maturity Bond and Mid Cap Growth
Funds. Parkstone International Discovery, Small Capitalization, Mid
Capitalization, Large Capitalization, Equity Income and Balanced Allocation
Funds.) Foreign risk is the risk of investments in issuers located in foreign
countries, which may have greater price volatility and less liquidity.
Investments in foreign securities are also subject to political, regulatory, and
diplomatic risks. Foreign risk includes currency risk, which may occur due to
fluctuations in the exchange rates between the U.S. dollar and foreign
currencies. This risk could negatively affect the value of a Fund's investments.
Municipal Issuer Risk -- (Armada National Tax Exempt Bond, Tax Exempt Money

Municipal Bond, National Tax Exempt Bond and Tax-Free Funds.) A Fund's
investments in municipal securities may also have exposure to special factors
that may adversely affect the value of municipal securities, and have a
significant effect on the value of the Fund's investments. These factors include
political or legislative changes, uncertainties related to the tax status of
municipal securities or the rights of investors in these securities.
Mortgage/Asset Backed Securities Risk -- (Armada Bond, Intermediate Bond,
Limited Maturity Bond and U.S. Government Income Funds. Parkstone Bond,
Intermediate Government Obligations, U.S. Government Income and Limited Maturity
Bond Funds.) Funds that invest in mortgage or asset-backed securities are
subject to the risk that mortgages or other assets may be prepaid when interest
rates decline, forcing the Fund to invest in securities with lower interest
rates. For this and other reasons, mortgage and asset-backed securities may have
significantly greater price and yield volatility than traditional debt
securities.
There is no assurance that any portfolio will achieve its investment objective.
INFORMATION RELATING TO THE PROPOSED REORGANIZATION
Parkstone has entered into an agreement whereby its investment portfolios are to
be acquired by portfolios of Armada. Significant provisions of this
Reorganization Agreement are summarized below; however, this summary is
qualified in its entirety by reference to the Reorganization Agreement, a copy
of which is attached as Appendix A to this Combined Prospectus/Proxy Statement.
DESCRIPTION OF THE REORGANIZATION AGREEMENT. There are sixteen separate
Parkstone investment portfolios that are intended to participate in the
reorganization. Initially, the assets of eleven of them will be acquired by
eleven similar investment portfolios currently offered by Armada. Subsequently,
five portfolios will be acquired by five new Armada portfolios which have been
organized to continue the operations of these Parkstone Funds.
The Reorganization Agreement provides, first, that substantially all of the
assets and liabilities of the Reorganizing Funds will be transferred to the
Existing Armada Funds identified in the table below. Thereafter, substantially
all of the assets and liabilities of the Continuing Funds will be transferred to
the New Armada Funds identified in the table below. The holders of each class of
shares of a Parkstone Fund will receive the class of shares of the corresponding
Armada Fund identified in the table.
In the tables, (a) opposite the name of each Parkstone Fund is the name of the
Armada Fund which will issue shares to such Parkstone Fund, and (b) opposite the
name of each class of shares of the Parkstone Fund is the name of the class of
shares of the Armada Fund to be distributed to the holders of such Parkstone
class. With respect to the Reorganizing Funds, the number of each class of
shares to be issued by the Armada Funds will have an aggregate net asset value
equal to the aggregate net asset value of the corresponding class or classes of
shares of the particular Parkstone Fund as of the regular close of the New York
Stock Exchange, currently 4:00 p.m. New York time, on the business day
immediately preceding the transfer relating to the Reorganizing Funds. With
respect to the Continuing Funds, the number of each class of shares to be issued
by the Armada Funds will have an aggregate net asset value equal to the
aggregate net asset value of the corresponding class or classes of shares of the
particular Parkstone Fund as of the regular close of the New York Stock
11
<PAGE> 22
Exchange, currently 4:00 p.m. New York time, on the business day immediately
preceding the transfer relating to the Continuing Funds.
The four Armada money market funds (Money Market Fund, Treasury Plus Money
Market Fund, Government Money Market Fund and Tax Exempt Money Market Fund) may
have minute differences in market-based net asset values per share from their
Parkstone counterparts; however, it is a condition of the Reorganization that
the per-share amortized cost values of these portfolios be identical with those
of their corresponding Parkstone money market funds.

financial statements and performance history in the post-reorganization funds.
Parkstone may liquidate a limited number of holdings of certain of the
Reorganizing Funds in light of the investment policies of Armada and the
strategies of its investment adviser. The transaction costs that will result
from such sales are expected to be minimal.
The Reorganization Agreement provides that Parkstone will declare a dividend or
dividends prior to the Reorganizing Funds Transaction which, together with all
previous dividends, will have the effect of distributing to the Shareholders of
each of the Reorganizing Funds all undistributed ordinary income earned and net
capital gains realized up to and including the Effective Time of the
Reorganization.
Following the transfers of assets and liabilities from the Parkstone Funds to
the Armada Funds, and the issuances of shares by the Armada Funds to the
Parkstone Funds, each of the Parkstone Funds will distribute the class of shares
of the Armada Funds pro rata to the holders of classes of shares of the
Parkstone Funds as described above in liquidation of the Parkstone Funds. Each
holder of a class of shares of a Parkstone Fund will receive an amount of the
corresponding class of shares of the corresponding Armada Fund of equal value,
plus the right to receive any declared and unpaid dividends or distributions.
Following the Reorganization, the registration of Parkstone as an investment
company under the 1940 Act will be terminated, and Parkstone will be terminated
under state law.
The stock transfer books of Parkstone will be permanently closed after the
Reorganization.
The Reorganization is subject to a number of conditions, including approval of
the Reorganization Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby described
in this Combined Prospectus/Proxy Statement by the Shareholders of Parkstone;
the receipt of certain legal opinions described in the Reorganization Agreement;
the receipt of certain certificates from the parties concerning the continuing
accuracy of the representations and warranties in the Reorganization Agreement
and other matters; and the parties' performance in all material respects of
their agreements and undertakings in the Reorganization Agreement. Assuming
satisfaction of the conditions in the Reorganization Agreement, the Reorganizing
Funds Transaction is expected to occur on or after June 9, 2000 and the
Continuing Funds Transaction is expected to occur on or after June 10, 2000,
except that the reorganization with respect to the Parkstone Treasury Fund and
the Armada Treasury Plus Money Market Fund is expected to occur on or after June
16, 2000.
The expenses of Armada and of Parkstone incurred in connection with the
Reorganization will be borne equally by Armada and National City Bank of
Michigan/Illinois except that Armada shall bear any registration fees payable
under the Securities Act of 1933 and state "blue sky" laws.

<PAGE> 24
The Reorganization may be abandoned prior to its consummation by the mutual
consent of the parties to the Reorganization Agreement. The Reorganization
Agreement provides further that at any time prior to or (to the fullest extent
permitted by law) after approval of the Reorganization Agreement by the
Shareholders of Parkstone (a) the parties thereto may, by written agreement
approved by their respective Boards of Trustees or authorized officers, and with
or without the approval of their Shareholders, amend any of the provisions of
the Reorganization Agreement; and (b) either party may waive any breach by the
other party or the failure to satisfy any of the conditions to its obligations
with or without the approval of such party's shareholders.
In its consideration and approval of the Reorganization at meetings on November
19, 1998, May 11, 1999, July 20-21, 1999 and November 17, 1999, the Board of
Trustees of Parkstone considered, primarily, the March 1998 merger between First
of America Bank Corporation, the parent company of First of America, and
National City Corporation, the parent corporation of National City. IMC and
National City have recommended that each of the Parkstone Funds be reorganized
as described in this Combined Prospectus/Proxy Statement. This Reorganization
presents the opportunity to combine the separate Parkstone and Armada mutual
fund families into a single, larger consolidated group, offering shareholders a
full spectrum of funds. The Board of Trustees of Parkstone considered the effect
of the recent merger of the bank holding companies on Parkstone; the
recommendation of IMC and National City with respect to the proposed
consolidation of Parkstone and Armada; the investment capabilities of IMC; the
compatibility of the investment objectives and policies of the Parkstone Funds
and their corresponding Armada Funds; the improvement of operational
efficiencies and possible achievement of economies of scale through the
consolidation of investment portfolios that are substantially similar; the fee
structures of the Armada Funds; the historical and projected expense ratios of
the Armada Funds as compared to those of the Parkstone Funds; the comparative
investment performance of the Parkstone Funds and their corresponding Armada
Funds; the fact that the Reorganization would constitute a tax-free
reorganization; and that the interests of Shareholders would not be diluted as a
result of the Reorganization.
After consideration of all of the foregoing factors, together with certain other
factors and information considered to be relevant, Parkstone's Trustees
unanimously approved the Reorganization Agreement and directed that it be
submitted to Shareholders for approval.
PARKSTONE'S BOARD OF TRUSTEES RECOMMENDS THAT SHAREHOLDERS VOTE "FOR" APPROVAL
OF THE REORGANIZATION AGREEMENT.
The Parkstone Board of Trustees has not determined what action it will take in
the event the Shareholders of any Parkstone Fund fail to approve the
Reorganization Agreement or for any reason the Reorganization is not
consummated. In either such event, the Trustees may choose to continue
operations of the Parkstone Funds in their present form, or to consider
alternative dispositions of Parkstone's assets, including the sales of assets
to, or merger with, another investment company, or the possible liquidation of
any of its Funds.
At the meetings referenced above, the Armada Board of Trustees considered the
proposed Reorganization. Based upon their evaluation of the relevant information
provided to them, and in light of their fiduciary duties under federal and state
law, the Board of Trustees unanimously determined that the proposed
Reorganization was in the best interests of Armada and its shareholders and that
the interests of existing shareholders of Armada would not be diluted as a
result of effecting the transaction.
CAPITALIZATION. Because the Reorganizing Funds will be combined in the
Reorganization with the Existing Armada Funds, the total capitalization of each
of the Existing Armada Funds after the Reorganization is expected to be greater
than the current capitalization of the corresponding Reorganizing Funds. In
addition, because the Continuing Funds will be combined in the Reorganization
with the newly organized New Armada Funds, which have only nominal assets and
liabilities, information on the capitalization of the Continuing Funds and New
Armada Funds is not included. The following table sets forth, as of September
30, 1999 (unaudited):
(i) the capitalization of each of the Reorganizing Funds and each of the
Existing Armada Funds; and
(ii) the pro forma capitalization of each of the Existing Armada Funds as
adjusted to give effect to the Reorganization.
If consummated, the capitalization of each Fund is likely to be different at the
Effective Time of the Reorganization as a result of daily share purchase and
redemption activity in the Funds.

FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSEQUENCES. Consummation of the Reorganization is subject
to the condition that Armada receive an opinion from Drinker Biddle & Reath LLP
addressed to both Armada and Parkstone in form reasonably satisfactory to them
to the effect that for federal income tax purposes:
(i) the transfer of all of the assets and liabilities of each of the
Reorganizing Funds (except in each case for a cash reserve in an amount
necessary for the discharge of all known and reasonably anticipated
liabilities of each of the Reorganizing Funds) and each of the
Continuing Funds to the corresponding Armada Fund in exchange for
shares of the corresponding Armada Fund and liquidating distributions
to Shareholders of the Parkstone Funds of the shares of the Armada Fund
so received, as described in the Reorganization Agreement, will
constitute reorganizations within the meaning of Sections 368(a)(1)(C),
368(a)(1)(D) or 368(a)(1)(F) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as
amended, (the "Code") and with respect to the Reorganization, each
Parkstone Fund and Armada Fund will be considered "a party to a
reorganization" within the meaning of Section 368(b) of the Code;
(ii) no gain or loss will be recognized by the Parkstone Funds as a result
of such transactions;
(iii) no gain or loss will be recognized by the Armada Funds as a result of
such transactions;
(iv) no gain or loss will be recognized by the Shareholders of any
Parkstone Fund on the distribution to them by Parkstone of shares of
any class of the corresponding Armada Fund in exchange for their
shares of any class of the Parkstone Fund;
(v) the aggregate basis of the Armada Fund shares received by a Shareholder
of a Parkstone Fund will be the same as the aggregate basis of the
Shareholder's Parkstone Fund shares immediately prior to the
Reorganization;
(vi) the basis of each Armada Fund in the assets of the corresponding
Parkstone Fund received pursuant to the Reorganization will be the
same as the basis of the assets in the hands of the Parkstone Fund
immediately before the Reorganization;
18
<PAGE> 29
(vii) a shareholder's holding period for Armada Fund shares will be
determined by including the period for which the shareholder held the
Parkstone Fund shares exchanged therefor, provided that the
shareholder held such Parkstone Fund shares as a capital asset; and
(viii) each Armada Fund's holding period with respect to the assets
received in the Reorganization will include the period for which
such assets were held by the corresponding Parkstone Fund.
Armada and Parkstone have not sought a tax ruling from the Internal Revenue
Service ("IRS"), but are acting in reliance upon the opinion of counsel
discussed in the previous paragraph. That opinion is not binding on the IRS and
does not preclude the IRS from adopting a contrary position. Shareholders should
consult their own advisers concerning the potential tax consequences to them,
including state and local income taxes.
COMPARISON OF INVESTMENT POLICIES AND RISK FACTORS
The investment objectives and policies of the Reorganizing Funds are, in many
respects, similar to those of the corresponding Existing Armada Funds. There
are, however, certain differences. The investment objective of each of the
Existing Armada Funds and the Reorganizing Funds, with the exception of the
Parkstone U.S. Government Obligations and Treasury Funds, is non-fundamental,
meaning that it may be changed without a vote of the holders of a majority of
the Fund's outstanding shares, as defined by the 1940 Act. The investment
objectives of the Parkstone U.S. Government Obligations and Treasury Funds are
fundamental. Additionally, the investment policies of the Reorganizing Funds and
the Existing Armada Funds are, with the exception of the Armada Tax Exempt Money
Market Fund, not fundamental and may be changed by the respective Boards of
Trustees.
The following discussion summarizes some of the more significant similarities
and differences in the investment policies and risk factors of the Reorganizing
Funds and corresponding Existing Armada Funds and is qualified in its entirety
by the discussion elsewhere herein, and in the Prospectuses and Statements of
Additional Information of the Reorganizing Funds and the Existing Armada Funds
incorporated herein by reference.
PARKSTONE PRIME OBLIGATIONS FUND AND ARMADA MONEY MARKET FUND.
Each Fund is a money market fund that seeks to maintain a net asset value of
$1.00 per share, although there is no assurance either will be able to do so.
Both the Parkstone Prime Obligations Fund and Armada Money Market Fund may
invest in a broad range of U.S. dollar-denominated, high quality, short-term
instruments, including government obligations, commercial paper, bank
obligations, guaranteed investment contracts, repurchase agreements and reverse
repurchase agreements.
Both Funds will only purchase "eligible securities" that present minimal credit
risks as determined by its adviser pursuant to guidelines established by their
Boards of Trustees. Eligible securities generally include U.S. government
obligations and other high-quality money market instruments, including municipal
securities and other instruments deemed to be of comparable high quality as
determined by the Boards of Trustees. These securities will have short-term debt
ratings in the two highest rating categories of at least two nationally
recognized statistical rating organizations, or will be unrated securities of
comparable quality. In addition, the Parkstone Prime Obligations Fund
diversifies its investments so that, except for United States government
securities and certain other exceptions, not more than 5% of its total assets is
invested in securities of all issuers, not more than 5% of its total assets is
invested in the securities of any one issuer, not more than 5% of its total
assets is invested in securities of all issuers rated by a Rating Agency at the
time of investment in the second highest rating category for short-term debt
obligations or deemed to be of comparable quality to securities rated in the
second highest rating category for short-term debt obligations ("Second Tier
Securities") and not more than the greater of 1% of total assets or $1 million
is invested in the Second Tier Securities of one issuer. Each Fund's assets have
remaining maturities of 397 calendar days or less (except for certain variable
and floating rate instruments and securities underlying certain repurchase
agreements) as defined by the SEC and each Fund's dollar-weighted average
portfolio maturity may not exceed 90 days.
Both Funds may invest in U.S. dollar denominated bank obligations of foreign and
domestic banks such as certificates of deposit, time deposits, bankers'
acceptances, Eurodollar Certificates of Deposit, Eurodollar Time Deposits,
Canadian Time Deposits and Yankee Certificates of Deposit. Both Funds may invest
in Canadian Commercial Paper and Europaper, which is U.S. dollar denominated
commercial paper of a foreign issuer. With respect to the Armada Money Market
Fund, investments in bank obligations are limited to the obligations of
financial institutions having more than $1 billion in total assets at the time
of purchase.
19
<PAGE> 30
There are some differences between the Funds. The Armada Money Market Fund may
invest in zero coupon securities. These securities may exhibit greater price
volatility than ordinary debt securities because of the manner in which their
principal and interest are returned to investors.
PARKSTONE U.S. GOVERNMENT OBLIGATIONS FUND AND ARMADA GOVERNMENT MONEY MARKET
FUND.
Each Fund is a money market fund that seeks to maintain a net asset value of
$1.00 per share, although there is no assurance either will be able to do so.
Both Funds invest in obligations issued or guaranteed as to payment of principal
and interest by the U.S. Government, its agencies or instrumentalities, and
repurchase agreements issued by financial institutions such as banks and
broker-dealers.
The Parkstone U.S. Government Obligations Fund diversifies its investments so
that, except for United States government securities and certain other
exceptions, not more than 5% of its total assets is invested in Second Tier
Securities and not more than 1% of total assets or $1 million is invested in the
Second Tier Securities of one issuer.
A difference between the Funds is that Parkstone U.S. Government Obligations
Fund is permitted to invest up to 35% of the value of its total assets in high
quality money market instruments, including Municipal Securities, bankers'
acceptances, certificates of deposit, time deposits, and other instruments
deemed to be of comparable high quality as determined by Parkstone's Board of
Trustees although it has not been the practice of the Adviser to do so. Armada
Government Money Market is not expressly permitted to invest in these
securities.
PARKSTONE TAX-FREE FUND AND ARMADA TAX EXEMPT MONEY MARKET FUND.
Each Fund is a money market fund that seeks to maintain a net asset value of
$1.00 per share, although there is no assurance they will be able to do so. Both
Funds invest at least 80% of their assets in Municipal Securities rated in the
two highest short-term rating categories by a Rating Agency, or, if unrated, are
determined to be of comparable quality. This 80% requirement is a fundamental
policy of the Armada Tax Exempt Money Market Fund.
Both Funds may invest in the same types of Municipal Securities. Both may invest
in securities issued or guaranteed by the U.S. government, its agencies and
instrumentalities. Both may purchase securities on a when-issued or delayed
delivery basis.
There are some differences between the Funds. Parkstone Tax-Free Fund is
permitted to invest up to 20% of its total assets in taxable obligations for
temporary defensive purposes or when sufficient tax-exempt securities are not
available, may enter into repurchase agreements and reverse repurchase
agreements, and may lend its portfolio securities. Parkstone Tax-Free Fund is
also permitted to invest up to 20% of its assets the interest on which is
treated as a preference item for purposes of the federal alternative minimum
tax. Armada Tax Exempt Money Market Fund may enter into repurchase agreements
and reverse repurchase agreements, but is not expressly permitted to lend its
portfolio securities.
PARKSTONE BOND FUND AND ARMADA BOND FUND.
The investment policies of these Funds are similar. Both Funds invest at least
80% of the value of their total assets in bonds, debentures and certain other
debt securities. Both Funds invest only in investment grade fixed income
securities (i.e., securities rated in the four highest rating categories by a
Rating Agency), or if unrated, are determined by each Fund's adviser to be of
comparable quality. Parkstone Bond Fund may invest up to 25% of its net assets
in foreign securities, either directly or through the purchase of American
Depository Receipts. Armada Bond Fund is not expressly permitted to invest in
foreign securities.
Both Funds invest in the same types of debt securities, including debt
securities of corporations, securities issued or guaranteed by the U.S.
government, its agencies and instrumentalities, mortgage-backed securities and
asset-backed securities. Both Funds may invest a portion of their assets in the
same types of short-term obligations. Each may engage in interest rate and bond
index futures contracts and options on futures contracts.
PARKSTONE LIMITED MATURITY BOND FUND AND ARMADA LIMITED MATURITY BOND FUND.
It is expected that the Armada Enhanced Income Fund will change its name to
Armada Limited Maturity Bond Fund on or about the time of the Reorganization.
The investment policies of these Funds are similar. Both Funds invest at least
80% of their total assets in investment grade debt securities of all types,
including debt securities of corporations, obligations issued or guaranteed by
the U.S. government, its agencies or instrumentalities, asset-backed securities,
mortgage-backed securities and Municipal Securities. In
20
<PAGE> 31
addition, each may invest up to 20% of total assets in other securities,
including preferred stocks. Both Funds may invest a portion of their assets in
the same types of short-term obligations. Both Funds may invest in foreign
securities either directly or through the purchase of American Depository
Receipts. Parkstone Limited Maturity Bond Fund may only invest 25% of its net
assets in foreign securities, Canadian Commercial Paper and Europaper. Armada
Limited Maturity Bond Fund has no limitation on investing in foreign securities.
Both Funds may invest in interest rate and bond index futures and options on
futures contracts, and may engage in forward currency exchange contracts. Both
Funds intend to maintain a dollar-weighted average maturity of 1 to 5 years.
There are some differences. Parkstone Limited Maturity Bond Fund is permitted to
invest in bank obligations, including bankers' acceptances, certificates of
deposit and time deposits. Armada Limited Maturity Bond Fund is not expressly
permitted to invest in these securities.
PARKSTONE INTERMEDIATE GOVERNMENT OBLIGATIONS FUND AND ARMADA INTERMEDIATE BOND
FUND.
These Funds have similar, but not identical, investment policies. The principal
difference is that Parkstone Intermediate Government Obligations Fund invests
80% of its total assets in obligations issued or guaranteed by the U.S.
government, its agencies or instrumentalities. Armada Intermediate Bond Fund is
permitted to invest 80% of its total assets in debt securities of all types, not
just obligations issued or guaranteed by the U.S. government, its agencies or
instrumentalities, and 20% of the value of its total assets may be invested in
preferred stocks and other investments. These debt securities include: equipment
lease and trust certificates; corporate issues; collateralized mortgage
obligations; state, municipal and private activity bonds; obligations issued or
guaranteed by the U.S. government, its agencies or instrumentalities; securities
of supranational organizations such as the World Bank; participation
certificates in pools of mortgages, including mortgages issued or guaranteed by
the U.S. government, its agencies or instrumentalities; asset-backed securities
such as mortgage backed securities, Certificates of Automobile Receivables and
Certificates of Amortizing Revolving Debts; private placements; and income
participation loans. These securities may be subject to greater volatility than
U.S. Government obligations. Accordingly, the Armada Intermediate Bond Fund may
be more volatile than the Parkstone Intermediate Government Obligations Fund.
Under normal market conditions, both Funds expect to maintain a dollar-weighted
average portfolio maturity of three to ten years. Both Funds may invest in
mortgage-related securities. Parkstone Intermediate Government Obligations Fund
may purchase mortgage-backed securities rated in the three highest rating
categories by a Rating Agency, whereas Armada Intermediate Bond Fund may
purchase corporate debt securities, mortgage-backed securities and commercial
paper in the four highest rating categories. Both Funds may invest a portion of
their assets in the same types of short-term obligations, except that Armada
Intermediate Bond Fund may also invest in guaranteed investment contracts. The
Armada Intermediate Bond Fund may invest in foreign securities whereas Parkstone
Intermediate Government Obligations Fund may not. The Armada Intermediate Bond
Fund may invest in variable and floating rate instruments, which are unsecured
instruments that permit the indebtedness thereunder to vary and provide for
periodic adjustments in the interest rates, whereas the Parkstone Intermediate
Government Obligations Fund may not. Both Funds are permitted to invest in
repurchase agreements, however, the Parkstone Intermediate Government
Obligations Fund is also permitted to invest in reverse repurchase agreements,
while the Armada Intermediate Bond Fund may not.
PARKSTONE EQUITY INCOME FUND AND ARMADA EQUITY INCOME FUND.
The investment policies of the Funds are similar. Both Funds invest at least 80%
of their total assets in income producing common stocks and securities
convertible into common stock. Both Funds invest portions of their assets in the
same types of short-term obligations except that Armada Equity Income Fund may
also invest in guaranteed investment contracts. Both Funds may invest in stock
index futures contracts and options on futures contracts. Both may purchase put
and call options and write covered call options for hedging purposes. With
respect to the Armada Equity Income Fund, such options must be listed on a
national securities exchange or board of trade. Parkstone Equity Income Fund is
not subject to such a limitation. The aggregate value of securities subject to
options can not exceed 50% of Parkstone Equity Income Fund's net assets or 25%
of Armada Equity Income Fund's net assets. Both Funds may invest in foreign
securities, including American Depository Receipts, European Depository Receipts
and Standard & Poor's Depository Receipts. Armada Equity Income Fund may invest
up to 20% of its total assets in foreign securities, whereas Parkstone Equity
Income Fund may invest up to 25% of its net assets in such securities. Both
Funds may engage in foreign currency transactions. The Parkstone Equity Income
Fund may invest in bank obligations and commercial paper, while the Armada
Equity Income Fund may not.
21
<PAGE> 32
PARKSTONE SMALL CAPITALIZATION FUND AND ARMADA SMALL CAP GROWTH FUND.
The investment policies of both Funds are similar. Both Funds intend to invest
at least 80% of their total assets in equity securities of companies with small
stock market capitalization. Both Funds consider a "small capitalization"
company to be one that has the same market capitalization as the companies in
the Russell 2000 Growth Index.
Both Funds may invest portions of their assets in the same types of short-term
obligations, including commercial paper (including variable amount master demand
notes), bankers' acceptances, certificates of deposit, repurchase agreements,
obligations issued or guaranteed by the U.S. government or its agencies or
instrumentalities, and demand and time deposits of domestic and foreign banks
and savings and loan associations, except that Armada Small Cap Growth Fund may
also invest in guaranteed investment contracts. Both Funds may invest in stock
index futures contracts and options on futures contracts. Both Funds may
purchase put and call options and write covered call options for hedging
purposes. With respect to Armada Small Cap Growth Fund, such options must be
listed on a national securities exchange or board of trade. Parkstone Small
Capitalization Fund is not subject to such a limitation. The aggregate value of
securities subject to options will not exceed 50% of Parkstone Small
Capitalization Fund's net assets or 25% of Armada Small Cap Growth Fund's net
assets. Both Funds may invest in securities of foreign issuers, including
American Depository Receipts and European Depository Receipts. Armada Small Cap
Growth may also invest in Standard & Poor's Depository Receipts. Armada Small
Cap Growth Fund may invest up to 20% of its total assets in the securities of
foreign issuers, whereas Parkstone Small Capitalization Fund may invest up to
25% of its net assets in such securities. Parkstone Small Capitalization Fund is
permitted to enter into foreign currency futures contracts. Armada Small Cap
Growth Fund is not permitted to engage in foreign currency futures contracts.
The Parkstone Small Capitalization Fund may invest in bank obligations and
commercial paper, while the Armada Small Cap Growth Fund may not.
PARKSTONE INTERNATIONAL DISCOVERY FUND AND ARMADA INTERNATIONAL EQUITY FUND.
The investment policies of both Funds are very similar. Parkstone International
Discovery Fund and the Armada International Equity Fund each seek to achieve
their investment objective by investing, under normal market conditions, at
least 80% of their total assets in equity securities of foreign issuers. Both
Funds' assets normally will be invested in the securities of issuers located in
at least three foreign countries. It is not anticipated that the Parkstone
International Discovery Fund or the Armada International Equity Fund will invest
in the common stock of U.S. companies.
Both Funds will invest primarily in equity securities, including common and
preferred stocks, rights, warrants, securities convertible into common stocks,
American Depository Receipts and European Depository Receipts. Foreign
investments by both Funds may include debt obligations issued or guaranteed by
foreign governments or their agencies, authorities, instrumentalities, or
political sub-divisions, including a foreign state, province or municipality.
Both Funds focus their investments in equity securities of companies that are
included in the Morgan Stanley Capital International Europe, Australasia, Far
East ("EAFE") Index, a broadly diversified international index consisting of
more than 1,000 equity securities of companies located in the above-referenced
countries.
More than 25% of each Fund's total assets may be invested in the securities of
issuers located in the same country. Investment in a particular country of 25%
or more of the Fund's total assets will make the Fund's performance more
dependent upon the political and economic circumstances of that country than a
mutual fund more widely diversified among issuers in different countries.
Both Funds may invest in stock index futures contracts and options on futures.
Both Funds may also invest in foreign currency futures contracts. Both Funds may
purchase put and call options and write covered calls for hedging purposes. Such
options may relate to particular securities, stock or bond indices, financial
instruments or foreign currencies. With respect to the Armada International
Equity Fund, such options must be listed on a national securities exchange or
board of trade. The Parkstone International Discovery Fund is not subject to
such a limitation. The aggregate value of the securities subject to options will
not exceed 50% of Parkstone International Discovery Fund's net assets or 25% of
Armada International Equity Fund's net assets.
The Armada International Equity Fund may also purchase shares of investment
companies investing primarily in foreign securities, including "country funds"
which have portfolios consisting exclusively of securities of issuers located in
one foreign country. Such "country funds" may be either open-end or closed-end
investment companies. Parkstone International Discovery Fund may only invest in
other investment companies which are money market mutual funds.
22
<PAGE> 33
The Armada International Equity Fund may also purchase World Equity Benchmark
Shares issued by The Foreign Fund, Inc. ("WEBS") and similar securities of other
issuers. WEBS are shares of an investment company that invests substantially all
of its assets in securities included in the Morgan Stanley Capital International
indices for specific countries.
Because the expense associated with an investment in WEBS can be substantially
lower than the expense of small investments directly in the securities
comprising the indices it seeks to track, the adviser believes that investment
in WEBS of countries that are included in the EAFE Index can provide a
cost-effective means of diversifying the Fund's assets across a broader range of
equity securities.
WEBS are listed on the American Stock Exchange ("AMEX"), and were initially
offered to the public in 1996. The market prices of WEBS are expected to
fluctuate in accordance with both changes in the net assets value of their
underlying indices and supply and demand of WEBS under AMEX. To date, WEBS have
traded at relatively modest discounts and premiums to their net asset value.
However, WEBS have limited operating history, and information is lacking
regarding the actual performance and trading liquidity of WEBS for extended
periods or over complete market periods. In addition, there is no assurance that
the requirements of AMEX necessary to maintain the listing of WEBS will continue
to be met or will remain unchanged.
In the event substantial market or other disruptions effecting WEBS would occur
in the future, the liquidity and value of the Armada International Equity Fund's
shares could also be substantially and adversely affected, and the Fund's
ability to provide investment results approximating the performance of
securities in the EAFE could be impaired. If such disruptions were to occur, the
Fund could be required to reconsider the use of WEBS or other "Country Funds" as
part of its investment strategy. The Parkstone International Discovery Fund may
not invest in WEBS.
PARKSTONE BALANCED ALLOCATION FUND AND ARMADA BALANCED ALLOCATION FUND.
The investment policies of these two Funds are substantially the same. Each may
invest in any type or class of security. Both intend to invest 50% to 70% of
their net assets in common stocks and securities convertible to common stocks,
25% to 55% of their net assets in fixed income securities and up to 30% of their
net assets in cash and cash equivalents. Both Funds may invest a portion of
their assets in the same types of short-term obligations. Each may invest up to
20% of its net assets in foreign securities, including American Depository
Receipts, European Depository Receipts and Global Depository Receipts. Both may
engage in foreign currency exchange contracts. Both may invest in futures
contracts and options on futures contracts. Both may purchase put and call
options and write covered calls for hedging purposes. Armada Balanced Allocation
Fund is limited to options listed on a national securities exchange or board of
trade. Parkstone Balanced Allocation Fund is not subject to such a limitation.
The aggregate value of the securities subject to options will not exceed 50% of
Parkstone Balanced Allocation Fund's net assets or 25% of Armada Balanced
Allocation Fund's net assets. The excess, if any, of the Fund's obligations over
its entitlements with respect to each swap will be accrued on a daily basis and
an amount of liquid assets, such as cash, U.S. government securities or other
liquid high grade debt securities, having an aggregate net asset value at least
equal to such accrued excess will be maintained in a segregated account by the
Fund's custodian. The Armada Balanced Allocation Fund will not enter into any
swap unless the unsecured commercial paper, senior debt, or claims paying
ability of the other party is rated in the two highest rating categories by a
Rating Agency, or the claims paying ability of the other party is deemed
creditworthy and any such obligation the Armada Balanced Allocation Fund may
have under such an arrangement will be covered by setting aside liquid high
grade securities in a segregated account.
The Armada Balanced Allocation Fund may engage in short sales of its securities.
Selling securities short involves selling securities the seller does not own
(but has borrowed) in anticipation of a decline in the market price of such
securities. To deliver the securities to the buyer, the seller must arrange
through a broker to borrow the securities and, in so doing, the seller becomes
obligated to replace the securities borrowed at their market price at the time
of replacement. This price may be more or less than the price at which the
security was sold by the fund. In a short sale, the proceeds the seller receives
from the sale are retained by a broker until the seller replaces the borrowed
securities. The seller may have to pay a premium to borrow the securities and
must pay any dividends or interest payable on the securities until they are
replaced. Up to 20% of the assets of the Armada Balanced Allocation Fund may be
subject to short sales.
PARKSTONE NATIONAL TAX EXEMPT BOND FUND AND ARMADA NATIONAL TAX EXEMPT BOND
FUND.
The investment policies of these two Funds are similar. Each invests, under
normal market conditions, at least 80% of its total assets in Municipal
Securities. This 80% requirement is a fundamental policy of the Armada National
Tax Exempt Bond Fund. Both Funds may invest in the same types of Municipal
Securities. Both are permitted to invest in taxable
23
<PAGE> 34
obligations for temporary defensive purposes or if suitable tax exempt
securities are not available. Both Funds expect to maintain a dollar-weighted
average portfolio maturity of three to ten years.
INVESTMENT POLICIES AND RISKS -- GENERAL
The investment objective of each of the Reorganizing Funds and each Existing
Armada Fund are non-fundamental, with the exception of the Parkstone U.S.
Government Obligations Fund. A non-fundamental investment objective may be
changed without a vote of the majority of the Fund's outstanding voting
securities, as defined by the 1940 Act. The investment objective of the
Parkstone U.S. Government Obligations Fund is fundamental. Additionally, the
investment policies of the Reorganizing Funds and the Existing Armada Funds are,
with the exception of the Armada Tax Exempt Money Market Fund, not fundamental
and may be changed by the respective Boards of Trustees.
This section describes certain policies and risks that are common to a number of
Reorganizing Funds and Existing Armada Funds.
Each Reorganizing Fund and each Existing Armada Fund is permitted to (i) enter
into repurchase agreements; and (ii) purchase obligations of the U.S.
Government, its agencies and instrumentalities.
There are similarities between the Funds with respect to the types of money
market instruments they are permitted to purchase. Each Reorganizing Fund and
each Existing Armada Fund may invest in a broad array of money market
instruments, all rated in one of the top two rating categories by a Rating
Agency.
Parkstone Limited Maturity Bond Fund and Armada Bond Fund, Limited Maturity Bond
Fund, Intermediate Bond Fund and Balanced Allocation Fund may invest in
asset-backed securities. These securities may be backed by either credit card
receivables or motor vehicle installment purchase obligations. Asset-backed
securities entail certain risks, including the risk that credit card receivables
are generally unsecured, and the debtors are entitled to the protection of a
number of state and federal consumer credit laws, many of which give such
debtors the right to set off certain amounts owned on the credit cards, thereby
reducing the balance due. Most issuers of asset-backed securities backed by
motor vehicle installment purchase obligations permit the servicer of such
receivable to retain possession of the underlying obligations. If the servicer
sells these obligations to another party, there is a risk that the purchaser
would acquire an interest superior to that of the holders of the related
asset-backed securities. Further, if a vehicle is registered in one state and is
then re-registered because the owner and obligor move to another state, such
re-registration could defeat the original security interest in the vehicle in
certain cases. In addition, because of the large number of vehicles involved in
a typical issuance and technical requirements under state laws, the trustee for
the holders of asset-backed securities backed by automobile receivables may not
have a proper security interest in all of the obligations backing such
receivables. Therefore, there is the possibility that recoveries on repossessed
collateral may not, in some cases, be available to support payments on these
securities.
Parkstone Bond Fund, Limited Maturity Bond Fund, U.S. Government Income Fund,
Intermediate Government Obligations Fund and Balanced Allocation Fund, and
Armada Bond Fund, Limited Maturity Bond Fund, U.S. Government Income Fund,
Intermediate Bond Fund and Balanced Allocation Fund may invest in
mortgage-backed securities. Mortgage-backed securities are fixed income
securities representing an interest in a pool of underlying mortgage loans. They
are sensitive to changes in interest rates, but may respond to these changes
differently from other fixed income securities due to the possibility of
prepayment of the underlying mortgage loans. As a result, it may not be possible
to determine in advance the actual maturity date or average life of a
mortgage-backed security. Rising interest rates tend to discourage refinancings,
with the result that the average life and volatility of the security will
increase exacerbating its decrease in market price. When interest rates fall,
however, mortgage-backed securities may not gain as much in market value because
of the expectation of additional mortgage prepayments that must be reinvested at
lower interest rates. Prepayment risk may make it difficult to calculate the
average maturity of a portfolio of mortgage-backed securities and, therefore, to
assess the volatility risk of that portfolio.
The Parkstone Prime Obligations Fund, U.S. Government Obligations Fund, Tax-Free
Fund, Bond Fund, Limited Maturity Bond Fund, U.S. Government Income Fund, Large
Capitalization Fund, Equity Income Fund, Mid Capitalization Fund, Small
Capitalization Fund, International Discovery Fund and Balanced Allocation Fund
and the Armada U.S. Government Income Fund, Limited Maturity Bond Fund,
Intermediate Bond Fund, Equity Income Fund, Mid Cap Growth Fund, Small Cap
Growth Fund, International Equity Fund and Balanced Allocation Fund may invest
in foreign securities. Investments in securities of foreign companies or
governments can be more volatile than investments in U.S. companies or
governments. Diplomatic, political, or economic developments, including
nationalization or appropriation, could affect investments in foreign countries.
Foreign securities markets generally have less trading volume and less liquidity
than U.S. markets. In
24
<PAGE> 35
addition, the value of securities denominated in foreign currencies, and of
dividends from such securities, can change significantly when foreign currencies
strengthen or weaken relative to the U.S. dollar. Foreign companies or
governments generally are not subject to uniform accounting, auditing, and
financial reporting standards comparable to those applicable to domestic U.S.
companies or governments. Transaction costs are generally higher than those in
the U.S. and expenses for custodial arrangements of foreign securities may be
somewhat greater than typical expenses for custodial arrangements of similar
U.S. securities. Investment in sovereign debt obligations by certain Funds
involves risks not present in debt obligations of corporate issuers. The issuer
of the debt or the governmental authorities that control the repayment of the
debt may be unable or unwilling to repay principal or interest when due in
accordance with the terms of such debt, and a Fund may have limited recourse to
compel payment in the event of a default. Periods of economic uncertainty may
result in volatility of market prices of sovereign debt, and in turn a Fund's
NAV, to a greater extent than the volatility inherent in debt obligations of
U.S. issuers. Some foreign governments levy withholding taxes against dividend
and interest income. Although in some countries a portion of these taxes are
recoverable, the non-recovered portion will reduce the income received from the
securities comprising the portfolio.
INVESTMENT LIMITATIONS
Neither the Reorganizing Funds nor the Existing Armada Funds may change their
fundamental investment limitations without the affirmative vote of the holders
of a majority of the outstanding shares (as defined in the 1940 Act) of the
particular Reorganizing Fund or Existing Armada Fund. The investment limitations
of the Reorganizing Funds and the Existing Armada Funds are very similar, but
not identical.
The investment limitations listed below are fundamental with respect to the
Reorganizing Funds and the Existing Armada Funds except as noted.
The Parkstone Bond Fund, Limited Maturity Bond Fund, National Tax Exempt Bond
Fund, Intermediate Government Obligations Fund, Equity Income Fund, Small
Capitalization Fund, International Discovery Fund and Balanced Allocation Fund
and the Armada Bond Fund, Limited Maturity Bond Fund, Intermediate Bond Fund,
Equity Income Fund, Small Cap Growth Fund, International Equity Fund, Balanced
Allocation Fund and National Tax Exempt Bond Fund may not:
Purchase securities of any one issuer, other than securities issued or
guaranteed by the U.S. government or its agencies or instrumentalities, if,
immediately after such purchase, more than 5% of the value of the Fund's
total assets would be invested in such issuer or the Fund would hold more
than 10% of any class of securities of the issuer or more than 10% of the
outstanding voting securities of the issuer, except that up to 25% of the
value of the Fund's total assets may be invested without regard to such
limitations.
The following investment restrictions apply to all Reorganizing Funds and all
Existing Armada Funds:
No Fund may:
1. Purchase any securities which would cause 25% or more of the value of
its 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, any state, territory or
possession of the United States, the District of Columbia or any of
their authorities, agencies, instrumentalities or political
subdivisions, and repurchase agreements secured by such instruments,
or in the case of the Parkstone Prime Obligations Fund, U.S.
Government Obligations Fund and Tax-Free Fund, domestic bank
obligations and repurchase agreements secured by such obligations;
(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;
(c) utilities will be divided according to their services, for example,
gas, gas transmission, electric and gas, electric, and telephone
will each be considered a separate industry; and
(d) personal credit and business credit businesses will be considered
separate industries.
2. Make loans, except that the Fund may purchase and hold debt instruments
and enter into repurchase agreements in accordance with its investment
objective and policies and may lend portfolio securities in an amount
not exceeding one-third of its total assets.

<PAGE> 36
3. Borrow money, issue senior securities or mortgage, pledge or
hypothecate its assets except to the extent permitted under the 1940
Act.
4. Purchase or sell real estate, except that the fund may purchase
securities of issuers which deal in real estate and may purchase
securities which are secured by interests in real estate.
5. Invest in commodities, except that, as is consistent with its
investment objective and policies, a Fund may: (a) purchase and sell
options, forward contracts and futures contracts, including without
limitation those relating to indices; (b) purchase and sell options on
futures contracts or indices; and (c) purchase publicly traded
securities of companies engaging in whole or in part in such
activities. For purposes of this investment limitation, "commodities"
includes commodity contracts.
6. Act as an underwriter of securities within the meaning of the
Securities Act of 1933, except insofar as the Fund might be deemed to
be an underwriter upon the disposition of portfolio securities acquired
within the limitation on purchases of illiquid securities and except to
the extent that the purchase of obligations directly from the issuer
thereof in accordance with its investment objective, policies and
limitations may be deemed to be underwriting.
The Parkstone U.S. Government Obligations Fund will not:
Purchase securities of any one issuer, other than obligations issued or
guaranteed by the U.S. government or its agencies or instrumentalities, if,
immediately after such purchase, more than 5% of the value of the Fund's
total assets would be invested in such issuer or the Fund would hold more
than 10% of the outstanding voting securities of the issuer, except that up
to 25% of the value of the Fund's total assets may be invested without
regard to such limitations. There is no limit to the percentage of assets
that may be invested in U.S. Treasury bills, notes, or other obligations
issued or guaranteed by the U.S. government or its agencies or
instrumentalities.
Irrespective of the investment restriction above, and pursuant to Rule 2a-7
under the 1940 Act, the Parkstone U.S. Government Obligations Fund will, with
respect to 100% of its total assets, limit its investments in the securities of
any one issuer in the manner provided by such Rule.
In addition, each of the Reorganizing Funds and Existing Armada Funds is subject
to the following non-fundamental limitations, which may be changed without a
vote of the shareholders:
No Fund may:
1. Acquire any other investment company or investment company security
except in connection with a merger, consolidation, reorganization or
acquisition of assets or where otherwise permitted under the 1940 Act.
2. Write or sell put options, call options, straddles, spreads, or any
combination thereof, except as consistent with the Fund's investment
objective and policies for transactions in options on securities or
indices of securities, futures contracts and options on futures
contracts and in similar investments.
3. Purchase securities on margin, make short sales of securities or
maintain a short position, except that, as consistent with a Fund's
investment objective and policies, (a) this investment limitation shall
not apply to the Fund's transactions in futures contracts and related
options, options on securities or indices of securities and similar
instruments, and (b) it may obtain short-term credit as may be
necessary for the clearance of purchases and sales of portfolio
securities.
4. Purchase securities of companies for the purpose of exercising control.
5. Invest more than 15% (10% in the case of a money market fund) of its
net assets in illiquid securities.
Generally if a percentage limitation is satisfied at the time of investment, a
later increase or decrease in such percentage resulting from a change in the
value of a Fund's portfolio securities will not constitute a violation of such
limitation for purposes of the 1940 Act.
See "Investment Restrictions" in the Reorganizing Funds' Statement of Additional
Information, which is incorporated by reference herein, for additional
non-fundamental investment limitations of the Reorganizing Funds.
See "Investment Limitations" in the Existing Armada Funds' Statement of

PURCHASE AND REDEMPTION INFORMATION, EXCHANGE PRIVILEGES, DISTRIBUTION AND
PRICING. The purchase, redemption, exchange privileges and distribution
policies of the Parkstone Funds and the Armada Funds are discussed below in
Appendix D -- Shareholder Transactions and Services to this Combined
Prospectus/Proxy Statement.
OTHER INFORMATION. Parkstone and Armada are registered as open-end management
investment companies under the 1940 Act. Currently, Parkstone offers sixteen
investment portfolios. All Parkstone Funds except the Michigan Municipal Bond
Fund are diversified portfolios. Armada offers twenty-three investment
portfolios. All Existing Armada Funds are diversified portfolios. All New Armada
Funds except the Michigan Municipal Bond Fund are diversified portfolios.
Both Parkstone and Armada were organized as Massachusetts business trusts in
1987 and 1986, respectively, and are subject to the provisions of their
respective Declarations of Trust and Codes of Regulations. Shares of Parkstone
are entitled to one vote for each dollar of value invested, and have a
proportionate fractional vote for any fraction of one dollar invested. Shares of
Armada are entitled to one vote for each full share held and a proportionate
fractional vote for each fractional share held. Shares of both Parkstone and
Armada:
(i) will vote in the aggregate and not by class except as otherwise
expressly required by law or when class voting is permitted by the
respective Board of Trustees; and
(ii) are entitled to participate equally in the dividends and distributions
that are declared with respect to a particular investment portfolio
and in the net distributable assets of such portfolio on liquidation.
Shares of both the Parkstone Funds and the Armada Funds have no par value. In
addition, shares of the Parkstone Funds and Armada Funds have no preemptive
rights and only such conversion and exchange rights as the respective Boards of
Trustees may grant in their discretion. When issued for payment as described in
their Prospectuses, Parkstone Fund shares and Armada Fund shares are fully paid
and non-assessable by such entities except as required under Massachusetts law.
Armada is not required under Massachusetts law to hold annual shareholder
meetings and intends to do so only if required by the 1940 Act. Shareholders
have the right to remove Trustees. To the extent required by law, Armada will
assist in shareholder communications in such matters.
The foregoing is only a summary. Shareholders may obtain copies of the
Declarations of Trust and Codes of Regulations of Parkstone and Armada upon
written request at the addresses shown on the cover page of this Combined
Prospectus/Proxy Statement.

INFORMATION RELATING TO VOTING MATTERS
GENERAL INFORMATION. This Combined Prospectus/Proxy Statement is being
furnished in connection with the solicitation of proxies by Parkstone's Board of
Trustees in connection with the Meeting. It is expected that the solicitation of
proxies will be primarily by mail. Officers and service contractors of Parkstone
may also solicit proxies by telephone, telegraph, facsimile or personal
interview. Shareholders may vote by touch-tone telephone or on the Internet by
following the instructions on the insert contained in the proxy solicitation
material. In addition, Parkstone has retained the services of Shareholder
Communications Corporation to aid in the solicitation of proxies for a fee of
approximately $12,000. It is anticipated that banks, brokerage houses and other
custodians will be requested on behalf of Parkstone to forward solicitation
materials to their principals to obtain authorizations for the execution of
proxies. Any Shareholder giving a proxy may revoke it at any time before it is
exercised by submitting to Parkstone a written notice of revocation or a
subsequently executed proxy or by attending the Meeting and voting in person.
Only shareholders of record at the close of business on February 28, 2000 will
be entitled to vote at the Meeting. On that date there were outstanding and
entitled to be voted 604,238,061.009 shares of the Parkstone Prime Obligations
Fund, 102,268,429.437 shares of the Parkstone U.S. Government Obligations Fund,
93,049,319.320 shares of the Parkstone Tax-Free Fund, 34,050,297.537 shares of
the Parkstone Bond Fund, 20,116,129.956 shares of the Parkstone U.S. Government
Income Fund, 12,544,027.069 shares of the Parkstone Limited Maturity Bond Fund,
9,724,743.465 shares of the Parkstone Intermediate Government Obligations Fund,
22,841,274.428 shares of the Parkstone Large Capitalization Fund, 15,140,071.353
shares of the Parkstone Equity Income Fund, 11,408,511.669 shares of the
Parkstone Small Capitalization Fund, 19,287,212.932 shares of the Parkstone
International Discovery Fund, 11,365,154.265 shares of the Parkstone Balanced
Allocation Fund, 7,397,636.201 shares of the Parkstone National Tax Exempt Bond
Fund, 25,816,676.636 shares of the Parkstone Mid Capitalization Fund,
17,347,083.581 shares of the Parkstone Michigan Municipal Bond Fund and
253,072,635.240 shares of the Parkstone Treasury Fund. Every shareholder of
record shall have the right to one vote for each dollar of value invested, and
to have a proportionate fractional vote for any fraction of one dollar invested.
Shareholders will vote separately by Fund.
IMC has advised Parkstone and Armada that IMC and its affiliates will vote the
shares of each Parkstone Fund for which it is record owner as follows:
(i) for each account as to which there is an individual designated both to
vote proxies and to receive annual and semi-annual reports and other
disclosure documents, such individual shall be entitled to vote the
shares beneficially owned by such account; and
(ii) for each account as to which IMC or any of its affiliates is
responsible to vote proxies, an independent third party, unrelated to
IMC, its affiliates or the account shall vote such shares.
If the accompanying proxy is executed and returned in time for the Meeting, the
shares covered thereby will be voted in accordance with the proxy on all matters
that may properly come before the Meeting or any adjournment thereof. For
information on adjournment of the meeting, see "Quorum" below.
SHAREHOLDER AND BOARD APPROVALS. The Reorganization Agreement is being
submitted for approval at the Meeting by the holders of a majority of the
outstanding shares of the Parkstone Prime Obligations Fund, U.S. Government
Obligations Fund, Tax-Free Fund, Bond Fund, U.S. Government Income Fund, Limited
Maturity Bond Fund, Intermediate Government Obligations Fund, Large
Capitalization Fund, Equity Income Fund, Small Capitalization Fund,
International Discovery Fund, Balanced Allocation Fund, National Tax Exempt Bond
Fund, Mid Capitalization Fund, Michigan Municipal Bond Fund and Treasury Fund in
accordance with the provisions of Parkstone's Declaration of Trust and the
requirements of the 1940 Act.
The term "majority of the outstanding shares" of a Parkstone Fund as used herein
means more than 50% of the outstanding shares of such Parkstone Fund.
In tallying shareholder votes, abstentions and broker non-votes (i.e., proxies
sent in by brokers and other nominees that cannot be voted on a proposal because
instructions have not been received from the beneficial owners) will be counted
for purposes of determining whether or not a quorum is present for purposes of
convening the meeting. On the Reorganization, abstentions and broker non-votes
will be considered to be a vote against such proposal.
The approval by the shareholders of the corresponding Existing Armada Funds of
the Reorganization is not being solicited because their approval or consent is
not necessary for the Reorganization to be consummated.

<PAGE> 39
For purposes of the 1940 Act, any person who owns directly or through one or
more controlled companies more than 25% of the voting securities of a company is
presumed to "control" such company. National City Corporation, which is
incorporated under the laws of the state of Delaware, and its bank subsidiaries
hold shares for the benefit of their customers and may be considered controlling
persons of certain Parkstone Funds for purposes of certain federal securities
laws. National City Corporation and its subsidiaries intend to vote shares over
which they have voting authority pursuant to the Employee Retirement Income
Security Act of 1974 ("ERISA") in the best interests of the plan participants.
With respect to shares over which National City Corporation and its subsidiaries
possess voting authority, but which are not subject to ERISA, National City
Corporation and its subsidiaries will vote such shares as follows:
(i) for each account as to which there is an individual designated both to
vote proxies and to receive annual and semi-annual reports and other
disclosure documents, such individual shall be entitled to vote the
shares beneficially owned by such account; and
(ii) for each account as to which IMC or any of its affiliates is
responsible to vote proxies, an independent third party, unrelated to
IMC, its affiliates or the account shall vote such shares.
As of February 28, 2000, National City Corporation owns more than 25% of each of
the following Reorganizing Funds:

and thereafter shareholders may redeem from Armada the Armada shares acquired by
them in the Reorganization at net asset value.
QUORUM. In the event that a quorum is not present at the Meeting, or in the
event that a quorum is present at the Meeting but sufficient votes to approve
the Reorganization Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby are not
received, the persons named as proxies may propose one or more adjournments of
the Meeting to permit further solicitation of proxies. Any such adjournment will
require the affirmative vote of a majority of those shares affected by the
adjournment that are represented at the Meeting in person or by proxy. If a
quorum is present, the persons named as proxies will vote those proxies which
they are entitled to vote FOR such proposals in favor of such adjournments, and

<PAGE> 55
required to be voted AGAINST such proposals against any adjournment. A
shareholder vote may be taken with respect to one or more Parkstone Funds prior
to any such adjournment if sufficient votes have been received for approval with
respect to any such Parkstone Fund. A quorum is constituted with respect to a
Parkstone Fund by the presence in person or by proxy of the holders of more than
50% of the outstanding shares of the Fund entitled to vote at the Meeting.
Parkstone proxies properly executed and marked with a negative vote or an
abstention will be considered to be present at the Meeting for the purposes of
determining the existence of a quorum for the transaction of business.
ANNUAL MEETINGS. Armada does not presently intend to hold annual meetings of
shareholders for the election of trustees and other business unless and until
such time as less than a majority of the trustees holding office have been
elected by the shareholders, at which time the trustees then in office will call
a shareholders' meeting for the election of trustees. Shareholders have the
right to call a meeting of shareholders to consider the removal of one or more
trustees or for other matters and such meetings will be called when requested in
writing by the holders of record of 20% or more of Armada's outstanding shares
of common stock. To the extent required by law, Armada will assist in
shareholder communications on such matters.

AGREEMENT AND PLAN OF REORGANIZATION
AGREEMENT AND PLAN OF REORGANIZATION made as of November 17, 1999 between ARMADA
FUNDS, a Massachusetts business trust ("Armada"), and THE PARKSTONE GROUP of
FUNDS, a Massachusetts business trust ("Parkstone").
WHEREAS, the parties desire that substantially all of the known assets and
liabilities of Parkstone's portfolios be transferred to, and be acquired and
assumed by, certain Armada portfolios in exchange for A Shares, B Shares or I
Shares, as applicable, of the Armada portfolios which shall thereafter be
distributed by Parkstone to the holders of Investor A Shares, Investor B Shares
or Institutional Shares, as applicable, of its portfolios, all as described in
this Agreement (the "Reorganization");
WHEREAS, the parties intend that the Armada Large Cap Ultra, U.S. Government
Income Fund, Mid Cap Growth Fund, Michigan Municipal Bond Fund and Treasury Plus
Money Market Fund will each have nominal assets and liabilities before the
Reorganization and will continue the investment operations of the Parkstone
Large Capitalization Fund, U.S. Government Income Fund, Mid Capitalization Fund,
Michigan Municipal Bond Fund and Treasury Fund (the "Continuing Funds"),
respectively, after the Reorganization;
WHEREAS, the Reorganization with respect to Parkstone's Prime Obligations Fund,
U.S. Government Obligations Fund, Tax-Free Fund, Bond Fund, Limited Maturity
Bond Fund, Intermediate Government Obligations Fund, Equity Income Fund, Small
Capitalization Fund, International Discovery Fund, Balanced Allocation Fund and
National Tax Exempt Bond Fund (the "Reorganizing Funds") shall occur on a date
that is the same or prior to the Reorganization with respect to the Continuing
Funds;
WHEREAS, the parties intend that the transfers of assets, assumptions of
liabilities, and distributions of A Shares, B Shares or I Shares, as the case
may be, be treated as tax-free reorganizations under Section 368(a)(1)(C),
368(a)(1)(D), or 368(a)(1)(F) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended
(the "Code"); and
WHEREAS, the parties intend that in connection with the Reorganization each of
the Parkstone portfolios shall be terminated and Parkstone shall be terminated
under state law and deregistered as described in this Agreement.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing recitals and the mutual
covenants and agreements hereinafter set forth and subject to the terms and
conditions hereof, and intending to be legally bound hereby, Armada and
Parkstone agree as follows:
I. Transfer of Assets of Parkstone.
1.01(a) At the Effective Time of the Reorganization (as defined in Article VIII)
with respect to each of the Parkstone portfolios (each, an "Acquired Fund"), all
property of every description, and all interests, rights, privileges and powers
of each Acquired Fund other than cash in an amount necessary to pay any unpaid
dividends and distributions as provided in Article IV(g) (such assets, the
"Acquired Fund Assets") shall be transferred and conveyed by such Acquired Fund
to Armada on behalf of one of its portfolios as set forth in Section 1.02 (each,
an "Acquiring Fund"), and shall be accepted by Armada on behalf of such
Acquiring Fund, and Armada, on behalf of such Acquiring Fund, shall assume all
known liabilities whether accrued, absolute, contingent or otherwise, of such
Acquired Fund reflected in the calculation of such Acquired Fund's net asset
value (the "Acquired Fund Liabilities"), so that at and after the Effective Time
of the Reorganization with respect to such Acquired Fund: (i) all Acquired Fund
Assets shall become and be the assets of its Acquiring Fund; and (ii) all
Acquired Fund Liabilities shall attach to its Acquiring Fund and may thereafter
be enforced against such Acquiring Fund as if the same had been incurred by it.
Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Acquired Fund Assets shall
include all property and assets of any nature whatsoever, including, without
limitation, all cash, cash equivalents, securities, claims and receivables
(including dividend and interest receivables) owned by an Acquired Fund, and
(subject to Section 1.01(b)) any deferred or prepaid expenses shown as an asset
on an Acquired Fund's books, at the Effective Time of the Reorganization of such
Acquired Fund, and all good will, all other intangible property and all books
and records belonging to an Acquired Fund. Recourse by any person for the
Acquired Fund Liabilities assumed by an Acquiring Fund shall, at and after the
Effective Time of the Reorganization of such Acquired Fund, be limited to such
Acquiring Fund. All ownership interest in and rights to use of the name
"Parkstone" shall become the property of Armada at the Effective Time of the
Reorganization of the Continuing Funds. At that time, Parkstone shall adopt a
new name that does not include the name "Parkstone" or any name similar to it.
(b) Notwithstanding Section 1.01(a), unamortized organizational expenses of the
Reorganizing Funds shall not be transferred or assumed hereunder. The parties
have been advised that such expenses will be paid to such Reorganizing Funds by
one or
A-3
<PAGE> 60
more third parties and will be eliminated from the balance sheets of such
Reorganizing Funds prior to the applicable Effective Time of the Reorganization
of the Reorganizing Funds.
1.02 The assets of each Acquired Fund shall be acquired by the Acquiring Fund
identified below opposite its name, and the holders of each class of shares of
such Acquired Fund shall receive the class of shares of beneficial interest of
the Acquiring Fund identified below opposite the name of such class:

In connection with the Reorganization, the Board of Trustees of Armada has
adopted resolutions authorizing the change of name of the Enhanced Income Fund
to the Limited Maturity Bond Fund. This change will be effected prior to, on or
about the Effective Time of the Reorganization with respect to such Acquired
Fund.
1.03 In exchange for the transfer of the Acquired Fund Assets and the assumption
of the Acquired Fund Liabilities, Armada shall simultaneously issue at the
applicable Effective Time of the Reorganization to each Acquired Fund a number
of full and fractional shares to the third decimal place, of the Acquiring Fund
specified in Section 1.02 and of the class or classes identified in Section
1.02, all determined and adjusted as provided in this Agreement. For each class
of shares, the shares of the Acquiring Funds so issued will have an aggregate
net asset value equal to the value of the Acquired Fund Assets, net of the
Acquired Fund Liabilities, that are represented by the class of shares of the
Acquired Fund, the holders of which shall receive such class of shares of the
Acquiring Fund, as specified in Section 1.02, all determined and adjusted as
provided in this Agreement.
1.04 The net asset value of each class of shares of the Acquiring Funds and the
net asset value of each class of shares of the Acquired Funds shall be
determined as of the applicable Valuation Time with respect to each Acquired
Fund specified in Article III.
1.05 The net asset value of each class of shares of each Acquiring Fund shall be
computed in the manner set forth in such Acquiring Fund's then current
prospectuses under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "1933 Act"). The
net value of the Acquired Fund Assets to be transferred by the Parkstone
portfolios shall be computed by Parkstone and shall be subject to adjustment by
an amount, if any, agreed to by Armada and Parkstone. In determining the value
of the securities transferred by the Acquired Funds to the Acquiring Funds, each
security shall be priced in accordance with the policies and procedures of
Armada described in its then current prospectuses and statements of additional
information and adopted by Armada's Board of Trustees, which are and shall be
consistent with the policies now in effect for Parkstone. For such purposes,
price quotations and the security characteristics relating to establishing such
quotations shall be determined by Armada, provided that such determination shall
be subject to the approval of Parkstone.
The value of the Acquired Fund Assets of the Parkstone Prime Obligations Fund,
Treasury Fund, U.S. Government Obligations Fund and Tax-Free Fund (each, a
"Parkstone Money Market Fund") and the value of the shares of the corresponding
Acquiring Funds for purposes of sales and redemptions shall be based on the
amortized cost valuation procedures that have been adopted by the Board of
Trustees of Parkstone and the Board of Trustees of Armada, respectively. Any
provision in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, if the difference
between the per share net asset values of a Parkstone Money Market Fund and its
corresponding Acquiring Fund equals or exceeds $.0025 at the applicable
Valuation Time, as computed by using such market values in accordance with the
policies and procedures established by Armada (or as otherwise mutually
determined by the Board of Trustees of Parkstone and the Board of Trustees of
Armada), either the Board of Trustees of Parkstone or the Board of Trustees of
Armada shall have the right to postpone the applicable Valuation Time and the
applicable Effective Time of the Reorganization with respect to such Parkstone
Money Market Fund until such time as the per share difference is less than
$.0025.
II. Liquidating Distributions and Termination of Parkstone. Immediately after
the Effective Time of the Reorganization with respect to each Acquired Fund,
such Acquired Fund shall distribute in complete liquidation pro rata to the
record holders of
A-5
<PAGE> 62
each class of its shares at the applicable Effective Time of the Reorganization
the shares of the class of the Acquiring Fund identified in Section 1.02 to be
received by the record holders of such class of such Acquired Fund. In addition,
each shareholder of record of an Acquired Fund shall have the right to receive
any unpaid dividends or other distributions which were declared before the
applicable Effective Time of the Reorganization with respect to the shares of an
Acquired Fund that are held by the shareholder at the applicable Effective Time
of the Reorganization. In accordance with instructions it receives from
Parkstone, Armada shall record on its books the ownership of each class of
shares of each Acquiring Fund by the record holders of the class of shares of
the Acquired Fund identified in Section 1.02. All of the issued and outstanding
shares of each class of each Acquired Fund shall be redeemed and canceled on the
books of Parkstone at the Effective Time of the Reorganization of such Acquired
Fund and shall thereafter represent only the right to receive the class of
shares of the Acquiring Fund identified in Section 1.02, and any dividends and
distributions declared pursuant to Article IV(g), and the Acquired Fund's
transfer books shall be closed permanently. As soon as practicable after the
Effective Time of the Reorganization with respect to the Continuing Funds,
Parkstone shall make all filings and take all other steps as shall be necessary
and proper to effect its complete dissolution, and shall file an application
pursuant to Section 8(f) of the 1940 Act for an order declaring that it has
ceased to be an investment company and any and all documents that may be
necessary to terminate its existence under state law. After the Effective Time
of the Reorganization with respect to the Continuing Funds, Parkstone shall not
conduct any business except in connection with its liquidation, dissolution, and
deregistration.

The performance of the National Tax Exempt Bond Fund for the period prior to

advised by National City Bank, an affiliate of the Adviser. At the time of the
National Tax Exempt Bond Fund's inception, the common trust fund was operated
using materially equivalent investment objectives, policies, guidelines and
restrictions as the Fund. In connection with the National Tax Exempt Bond Fund's
commencement of operations, on June 22, 1998, the common trust fund transferred
its assets to the Fund. At the time of the transfer, the Adviser did not manage
any other collective investment or common trust funds using materially
equivalent investment objectives, policies, guidelines and restrictions to those
of the National Tax Exempt Bond Fund.
The common trust fund was not open to the public generally, nor registered under
the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the "1940 Act") or subject to certain
restrictions that are imposed by the 1940 Act and the Internal Revenue Code. If
the common trust fund had been registered under the 1940 Act, performance may
have been adversely affected. Performance quotations of the common trust fund
represent past performance of the Adviser managed common trust fund, which are
separate and distinct from the National Tax Exempt Bond Fund; do not represent
past performance of the Fund; and should not be considered as representative of
future results of the Fund.

(c) Reduced Sales Charges -- Armada Class A Shares/Parkstone Investor A Shares
(1) Rights of Accumulation
a.Armada Class A Shares: In calculating the appropriate sales charge rate,
this right allows investors to add the value of the Class A Shares they
already own to the amount that they are currently purchasing. The Fund
will combine the value of the investor's current purchases with the
current value of any Class A Shares purchased previously for (i) the
investor's account, (ii) the investor's spouse's account, (iii) a joint
account with the investor's spouse, or (iv) the investor's minor
children's trust or custodial accounts. A fiduciary purchasing shares for
the same fiduciary account, trust or estate may also use this right of
accumulation. The Fund will only consider the value of Class A Shares
purchased previously that were sold subject to a sales charge. To be
entitled to a reduced sales charge based on shares already owned, the
investor must ask for the reduction at the time of purchase. The investor
must provide the Fund with the applicable account number(s) and, if
applicable, the account numbers of the spouse and/or children (and
provide the children's ages). The Fund may amend or terminate this right
of accumulation at any time.
b.Parkstone Investor A Shares: In calculating the appropriate sales charge
rate, this right allows investors to add the value of the Investor A
Shares they already own to the amount they are currently purchasing. The
Fund will combine the value of the investor's current purchases with the
current value of any Investor A Shares purchased previously for the
investor's account. The Fund will only consider the value of Class A
Shares purchased previously that were sold subject to a sales charge. To
be entitled to a reduced sales charge based on shares already owned, the
investor must ask for the reduction at the time of purchase. The investor
must provide the Fund with the applicable account number(s).
(2) Letter of Intent
Investors may purchase Armada Class A Shares or Parkstone Investor A Shares
at the sales charge rate applicable to the total amount of the purchases
they intend to make over a 13-month period. In other words, a Letter of
Intent allows investors to purchase Class A or Investor A Shares, as
applicable, of a Fund over a 13-month period and receive the same sales
charge as if all of the shares had been purchased at the same time. The
Fund will only consider the value of Class A or Investor A Shares sold
subject to a sales charge. As a result, shares of Class A or Investor A
Shares purchased with dividends or distributions will not be included in
the calculation. To be entitled to a reduced sales charge based on shares
an investor intends to purchase over the 13-month period, the investor must
send the appropriate Fund a Letter of Intent. In calculating the total
amount of purchases investors may include in their letter purchases made up
to 90 days before the date of the Letter. The 13-month period begins on the
date of the first purchase, including those purchases made in the 90-day
period before the date of the Letter. Please note that the purchase price
of these prior purchases will not be adjusted.
If the investor does not purchase the amount of shares indicated in the
Letter, the Letter authorizes the Fund to hold in escrow 4% of the total
amount the investor intends to purchase. If the investor does not complete
the total intended purchase at the end of the 13-month period or redeems
the entire amount within one year from the time of fulfillment, the Fund's
transfer agent will redeem the necessary portion of the escrowed shares to
make up the difference between the reduced rate sales charge (based on the
amount the investor intended to purchase) and the sales charge that would
normally apply (based on the actual amount purchased).
(3) Combined Purchase/Quantity Discount Privilege
When calculating the appropriate sales charge rate, the Fund will combine
same day purchases of Armada Class A Shares/Parkstone Investor A Shares
(that are subject to a sales charge) made by an investor, the investor's
spouse and minor children (under age 21). This combination also applies to
Armada Class A Shares/Parkstone Investor A Shares purchased with a Letter
of Intent. The investor must notify the Fund of the purchases that qualify
for this discount.
(d) Neither Armada nor Parkstone apply a sales charge on any purchases made
through reinvested dividends.
(e) No sales charge will be assessed on purchases of Armada Class A Shares or
Parkstone Investor A Shares made by:

2. Armada B Shares/Parkstone Investor B Shares:
Except as described below for Parkstone Investor B Shares purchased prior to
January 1, 1997, the contingent deferred sales charges applicable to Armada B
Shares and Parkstone Investor B Shares are substantially similar. Investors do
not pay a sales charge when purchasing Class B Shares. The offering price of
Class B Shares is simply the next calculated NAV. If, however, the investor
sells the shares within five years after purchase, the investor pays a
contingent deferred sales charge as described in the table below for either (1)
the NAV of the shares at the time of purchase, or (2) the NAV of the shares next
calculated after the Fund receives the sale request in good order, whichever is
less. The sales charge does not apply to shares purchased through reinvestment
of dividends or distributions. There is never any deferred sales charge on any
increase in an investment above the initial offering price. Additionally, this
sales charge does not apply to exchanges of Class B Shares of one Fund for Class
B Shares of another Fund. After eight years, Class B Shares are converted into
Class A Shares.

D-9
<PAGE> 130
1. Armada Class A Shares and Class B Shares
(a) Class A Shares -- Investors may exchange Class A Shares of any Fund for
Class A Shares of any other Fund. If an investor exchanges shares that the
investor purchased without a sales charge or with a lower sales charge into a
Fund with a sales charge or with a higher sales charge, the exchange is subject
to an incremental sales charge (e.g., the difference between the lower and
higher applicable sales charges). If an investor exchanges shares into a Fund
with the same, lower or no sales charge there is no incremental sales charge for
the exchange.
(b) Class B Shares -- Investors may exchange Class B Shares of any Fund for
Class B Shares of any other Fund. No contingent deferred sales charge is imposed
on redemptions of shares acquired in an exchange, provided those shares are held
for at least five years from the initial purchase.
2. Armada Systematic Exchange Program
The Systematic Exchange Program allows investors to exchange their existing
shares of an Armada money market fund for shares of any other Armada Fund of the
same class automatically, at monthly or quarterly intervals. Exchanging in this
manner will reduce the average cost per share of a non-money market fund.
Because purchases of Class A Shares of non-money market funds may be subject to
an initial sales charge, it may be beneficial for investors to execute a Letter
of Intent indicating an intent to purchase Class A Shares in connection with
this program. If an investor would like to enter a systematic exchange program
concerning Class B Shares he/she must exchange them within six or twelve months
from the date of purchase. Investors may apply for participation in this program
by telephone or completing an account application.
3. Parkstone Investor A Shares:
Investors who own Investor A Shares may acquire in an exchange Investor A Shares
that are offered by another Fund of the Trust or fund of Armada with a different
investment objective. The exchange must occur on the same business day.
(a) Exchanging a Money Market Fund for another Money Market Fund -- Investors
that own Investor A Shares of any of the Trust's Money Market Funds or a money
market fund of Armada may exchange those shares at net asset value without any
sales charge for Investor A Shares offered by any of the Trust's other Money
Market Funds or an Armada Money Market Fund. The amount to be exchanged must
meet the applicable minimum investment requirements and the exchange must be
made in states where it is legally authorized.
(b) Exchanging a Non-Money Market Fund for another Non-Money Market
Fund -- Investors who own Investor A Shares of any of the Trust's non-Money
Market Funds or any fund of Armada which is not an Armada Money Market Fund may
exchange those Investor A Shares at net asset value without any sales charge for
Investor A Shares offered by any Fund of the Trust and any fund of Armada. If
you paid a sales charge on the Investor A Shares that you are to exchange that
is less than the sales charge applicable to the Investor A Shares you would like
to acquire, you must pay a sales charge on the exchange equal to the difference
between the two sales charges.
(c) Exchanging a Money Market Fund for a Non-Money Market Fund -- Investors who
own Investor A Shares of a Parkstone or Armada Money Market Fund may exchange
those shares for Investor A Shares of a Parkstone or Armada non-Money Market
Fund, but a sales load will be charged on the exchange.
4. Parkstone Investor B Shares:
Investors who own Investor B Shares may acquire in an exchange Investor B Shares
that are offered by another Fund of the Trust or A Shares of a Fund of Armada
Funds. The exchange must occur on the same business day.
Investors who own Investor B Shares of one Fund of the Trust may exchange those
Investor B Shares for Class A Shares of a Fund of Armada at net asset value.
These exchanges will be executed only if they meet the applicable minimum
investment requirements within states where the exchanges are authorized.
5. Parkstone Systematic Exchange Program:
The Systematic Exchange Program enables investors to purchase Investor A Shares
or Investor B Shares through automatic monthly or quarterly deductions from any
account invested in one of the Parkstone Money Market Funds. If investors invest
directly in Investor B Shares of the Prime Obligations Fund, as opposed to
obtaining shares through an exchange, they will be asked to participate in the
Systematic Exchange Program and to establish the time and amount of the
systematic exchanges so that all of the shares of the Prime Obligations Fund
purchased initially will be exchanged for shares of Investor B Shares of other
non-Money Market Funds within two years of purchase. Under the program, the
investor will
D-10
<PAGE> 131
enter into an agreement to purchase shares of one or more specified Funds over a
specified period of time. The program requires investors to:
-- Initially purchase shares of one of the Money Market Funds in an amount
equal to the total amount of the investment.
-- Specify an amount to be deducted on a monthly or quarterly basis from
the Money Market Fund and exchanged for shares of chosen specified
funds.
E. RESPONSIBILITY FOR TELEPHONE AND INTERNET INSTRUCTIONS
Purchasing, selling and exchanging Fund shares over the telephone or via the
Internet is extremely convenient, but not without risk. Although Armada,
Parkstone, their administrators, distributors and transfer agents have certain
safeguards and procedures to confirm the authenticity of instructions, they are
not responsible for any losses or costs incurred by following telephone or
on-line instructions reasonably believed to be genuine. Investors or financial
institutions transacting with Armada, Parkstone, their administrators,
distributors and transfer agents over the telephone or via the Internet will
generally bear the risk of any loss.
F. PRICING
The price per share (the offering price) will be the net asset value per share
("NAV") next determined after a Fund receives your purchase order plus, in the
case of Armada Class A Shares and Parkstone Investor A Shares, the applicable
front-end sales charge. The NAV for one Fund share is the value of that share's
portion of all of the assets in the Fund less liabilities and class expenses.
For processing purchase and redemption orders, the NAVs per share of the Armada
Money Market and Government Money Market Funds and the Parkstone Prime
Obligations and U.S. Government Obligations Funds are calculated on each
business day first at 3:00 p.m. Eastern time, then as of the close of trading of
the New York Stock Exchange (the "Exchange"). The net asset values per share of
the Armada Tax Exempt Money Market and Treasury Plus Money Market Funds and the
Parkstone Tax-Free and Treasury Funds are calculated on each business day first
at 1:00 p.m. Eastern time then as of the close of trading of the Exchange,
generally 4:00 p.m. Eastern time.
Each other Armada and Parkstone fund calculates its NAV once each Business Day
at the regularly-scheduled close of normal trading on the Exchange (normally
4:00 p.m. Eastern Time).
NAV is determined on any day that the Exchange is open for business ("Business
Day"). The NAV is calculated by adding the total value of a Fund's investments
and other assets, subtracting its liabilities and then dividing that figure by
the number of outstanding shares of the Fund. The NAV is calculated separately
for each class of shares.
An investor's order for the purchase of shares is priced at the next NAV
calculated after the order is received by the Distributor. An investor's order
for redemption of shares is priced at the next NAV calculated after the shares
are properly tendered for redemption.
The Fund's securities are generally valued at current market prices. If market
quotations are not available, prices will be based on fair value as determined
by a method which the Fund's Trustees believe accurately reflects fair value.
Foreign securities are valued based on quotations from the primary market in
which they are traded and are translated from the local currency into U.S.
dollars using current exchange rates.
Some of the Funds have portfolio securities that are primarily listed on foreign
exchanges that trade on weekends or other days when these Funds do not price
their shares. As a result, the NAV of a Fund's shares may change on days when
shareholders will not be able to purchase or redeem the Fund's shares.
The NAV will fluctuate as the value of the investment portfolio of a Fund
changes. However, the Money Market Funds value their securities at their
amortized cost. The amortized cost method involves valuing a portfolio security
initially at its cost on the date of purchase and thereafter assuming a constant
amortization to maturity of the difference between the principal amount due at
maturity and initial cost.

V99]APPENDIX E
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION OF FUND PERFORMANCE
ARMADA EQUITY INCOME FUND
The Fund's sector weights as of
December 31, 1999 reflect both the large
capitalization value style and our
strategy of investing in stocks with
"good value and good news". Our style
naturally lends itself to large
positions in energy, financials, and
utility stocks, relative to the general
market, given the historically high
yield, low multiple nature of these
sectors. At year-end, the Fund's
weightings in these sectors were 13.1%,
24.4% and 6.0%, respectively, versus
5.6%, 13.2% and 2.1% for the S&P 500
Index.
Our strategy currently leads us to
over-weighted positions, relative to the
style-specific benchmark, the Standard &
Poor's/ BARRA Value Index, in basic
materials, industrials, utilities, and
consumer cyclicals. It is in these
sectors that we find the preponderance
of stocks offering both good value and
good news -- meaning that we have
identified cheap stocks deserving higher
valuations and poised to outperform.
Relative to both the market and our
benchmark, the portfolio has a higher
dividend yield, lower 1999 and 2000
price/earnings ratios, and a smaller
average market capitalization. One of
the most significant differences between
our portfolio and that of the benchmark
is volatility (measured by beta) -- our
style typically leads to a much lower
risk profile.
GOING FORWARD
After an excruciatingly bad stretch of
relative performance for contrarian
value-oriented strategies and an
incredibly rewarding period of returns
for momentum growth-oriented strategies,
we are increasingly convinced that there
will be a reversion to the mean in terms
of the performance of value versus
growth. We are sticking to the
philosophy that has served our investors
well in the past and continue to invest
in stocks offering both "good value and
good news". We feel that this would be a
particularly inopportune time to change
our stripes and begin to move away from
our discipline. It is typically at the
point of greatest discomfort that
deserting a style will result in the
greatest punishment. The benefits of
investing across equity styles accrue to
those who are diversified when the
rotations occur -- the most recent
example being in the second quarter of
1999 when the cyclical stocks raged back
into favor after a long period of
dormancy.
For the year ended December 31, 1999,
the Armada Equity Income Fund produced a
total return of -0.25 percent (before
sales charges) for Class A investors,
- -0.92 percent (before sales charges) for
Class B investors, and -0.13 percent for
Class I investors. Over the same period,
the Fund's benchmark, Standard &
Poor's/BARRA Value Index, produced a
total return of 12.72 percent.

ARMADA INTERNATIONAL EQUITY FUND
For the year, the performance of
Pacific Rim stocks outdistanced European
stock by a wide margin, 57.6% vs. 15.9%
respectively, even as the heavily
technology and communication oriented
Nordic regions posted a spectacular
87.0% advance. During the quarter, both
European and Far Eastern stocks moved in
relative sync, generating returns of
17.4% and 16.8% respectively. During the
month of December, however, European
stock outperformed the Pacific Rim
issues, generating returns of 10.3% and
6.6% respectively, as new German tax
reform, stronger industrial production,
and increased consumer confidence fueled
strong stock European performance.
Currently, the Fund maintains its most
significant overweighting in the Pacific
Rim at 39.0%, while being underweight to
Europe (58.8%). The largest country
allocations are to Japan, United
Kingdom, and France which are 26.5%,
16.1% and 11.7%, respectively. The Funds
most significant overweighted positions
relative to the Morgan Stanley EAFE
Index are to Hong Kong, Singapore, and
France. The most significant
underweighted positions relative to the
MSCI EAFE benchmark are to the United
Kingdom, Netherlands, and Germany.
GOING FORWARD
We continue to be constructive on the
outlook for international stocks
relative to the United States. Markets
outside the United States offer better
value with more accommodative monetary
policy, and excellent scope for earnings
growth amid accelerating economic growth
and corporate restructuring. Recently,
the movements of bonds, currencies, and
equity markets suggest that global
investors are looking increasingly
outside the US.
The differences between Europe and
Asia have greatly lessened over the past
year, as Europe's growth has been
accelerating since mid-1999 while Japan
faces continuing struggles to maintain
the pace of growth amid a high level of
structural change. Non-Japan Asia
continues to offer the best combination
of relative value, improving conditions,
and improving investor sentiment.
Emerging markets are also relatively
attractive despite a strong recovery in
1999.
Within global sectors, we see a few
structural shifts. Improving pricing in
a number industries suggest that basic
materials, energy, and insurance should
perform better in the year to come.
Moreover, the high degree of negative
news and lack of earnings growth in the
pharmaceutical industry have been well
telegraphed to markets, leading to
attractive entry points for select
stocks. Telecommunications and
technology remain highly attractive for
their growth prospects, but the degree
of our emphasis in these sectors has
been trimmed. Interest sensitive
sectors, outside of insurance, remain
under intense competitive pressure,
affecting margin expansion.
For the year ended December 31, 1999,
the Armada International Equity Fund
produced a total return of 49.71 percent
(before sales charges) for Class A
investors, 48.70 percent (before sales
charges) for Class B investors, and
50.13 percent for Class I investors.
Over the same period, the Fund's
benchmark produced a total return of
26.96 percent.

ARMADA SMALL CAP GROWTH FUND
Small capitalization stocks finally
managed to outperform large
capitalization stocks, albeit modestly
in 1999. Small capitalization technology
stocks had eye-popping, triple-digit
returns during 1999, though a
disproportionate amount of the gains
were booked from mid-October on.
Semiconductor related stocks were
important contributors to the Armada
Small Cap Growth Fund during the second
half of the year. Software stocks became
big contributors during the latter
stages of the year as well, especially
in the areas of business intelligence
and telecom service provider network
monitoring. The technology sector is the
largest single sector for the Fund and
it maintains an overweighted position in
technology issues relative to the
Russell 2000 Growth comparison
benchmark. As of December 31, 1999, the
Fund's allocation in the technology
sector is 48.3% versus the Index at
40.8%. We believe the fundamental
outlook for these companies is still
strong.
For the year ended December 31, 1999,
the Armada Small Cap Growth Fund
produced a total return of 35.63 percent
(before sales charges) for Class A
investors, 34.81 percent (before sales
charges) for Class B investors, and
36.06 percent for Class I investors.
Over the same period, the Fund's
benchmark produced a total return of
43.10% percent.
GOING FORWARD
After the unprecedented returns in
1999, one could reasonably become
concerned with how extended some of the
markets favorite stocks became during
the last ten weeks of 1999. The
continued upward pressure on interest
rates is also a concern. Our inclination
is to reduce our overweight to
technology and reduce exposure to those
stocks that have been driven up to
levels that cannot be justified by the
fundamentals. However, markets tend to
defy conventional wisdom at times. This
bull market more than any other has
defied conventional wisdom from the
beginning of its advance. In recognition
of this, we will refrain from stepping
out of our small cap growth discipline.
We believe the fundamentals for many
technology groups remain strong. Biotech
has gotten increased attention lately
and the Fund has benefited from the
increased exposure to the group.
Semiconductor capital equipment
companies are just entering the capacity
expansion phase of the industry's
upturn, which historically has led to
rapid revenue growth, margin expansion,
and earnings revisions -- all catalysts
for stock performance. Software stocks
which help businesses improve their
decision making processes (business
intelligence) should also see superior
growth. Derivative plays on the growth
of the internet should continue to be
fertile ground for small cap growth
investors, whether in the form of
broadband wireless infrastructure
equipment, web development software,
business to business enablers, or
information technology services
companies who are increasingly helping
customers develop e-commerce
capabilities. Our goal is to discover
the emerging companies that have the
best growth prospects within these
areas.

ARMADA BALANCED ALLOCATION FUND
The Armada Balanced Allocation Fund's
traditional emphasis on equity holdings
was greatly rewarded during both the
fourth quarter 1999 and the entire year.
In addition, the Fund's growth style of
investing was particularly advantageous.
This was especially true of its
increased investment in small cap and
international growth stocks. In terms of
fixed income, interest rates rose less
in the fourth quarter than in the year's
first half. Accordingly, while absolute
fixed income returns were again negative
in the fourth quarter, they were only
marginally so. At year-end,
approximately 62% of the Fund was
invested in equity holdings.
The Fund's equity exposure was
maintained at its normal level
throughout the third quarter, as the
positive and negatives for the market
were carefully analyzed. On the positive
side were our forecasts of strong
corporate earnings growth, our beliefs
that inflation will remain relatively
well behaved, that the Federal Reserve
will not embark on an additional series
of interest rate increases, and that the
worst of the rise in long-term interest
rates had already been seen. Negatives
factors include the increasing pace of
economic growth throughout the entire
world, the corresponding fears of
cyclical pressures on inflation and
resulting pressures on world central
banks to raise interest rates.
Additional negative factors include our
long-held concerns about the extreme
narrowness of the overall equity market,
as well as the unprecedented levels of
valuation and expectations which are
embedded in the growth sectors in
particular.
Within the Fund, the recent excellent
returns in both the small capitalization
and international equity components has
narrowed their previous advantage in
terms of relative valuation.
Accordingly, their relative weightings
remained constant in the fourth quarter.
In regards to fixed income, the Fund
maintained its neutral position in terms
of both its overall weight, as well as
its interest rate sensitivity. Our
relatively sanguine view of economic
conditions, coupled with historically
wide credit spreads between sectors of
the fixed income markets, has led to a
substantial emphasis on the
non-government or spread sectors of the
fixed income markets.
GOING FORWARD
We expect the US economy to remain
"stronger for longer", assisted by the
first synchronous global upswing in over
a decade. In terms of inflation, while
cyclical pressures are readily apparent,
we believe the combination of
technology-induced advancements in
productivity coupled with an
intensely-competitive global
environment, will translate into higher
but still secularly-low levels of
inflation. As for monetary policy, we
expect global central banks, including
the Federal Reserve, to continue their
recent tightening moves in the early
part of 2000. However, if correct on our
inflation views, we think short rate
hikes will be of limited magnitude and
that long rates will likely decline in
the year's latter half. As for the
equity market, our continued confidence
in solid growth, healthy

ARMADA BALANCED ALLOCATION FUND
(CONTINUED)
GOING FORWARD (CONTINUED)
profits and a positive supply/demand
relationship means the overall backdrop
remains solid. However, central bank
tightening, coupled with the historic
highs in growth stock valuation and
exuberant expectations almost ensures
that volatility/risks will remain
elevated throughout the financial
markets.
Specific to the Armada Balanced
Allocation Fund, equity exposure will
likely remain near the normal level, as
the countervailing forces of positive
economic growth, strong corporate
earnings growth and a positive
supply/demand situation, counterbalance
the negatives of higher interest rates,
coupled with elevated stock valuations.
In terms of allocation within the equity
market, the overweighting of small
capitalization stocks will likely be
marginally reduced, as their recent
returns have been dramatic. The relative
reduction in small cap will be
transferred to an additional overweight
in the international arena, as expected
structural reforms combine with
attractive relative valuations in a
number of foreign markets. As for fixed
income, we will wait for interest rates
to attain new highs before either adding
to our exposure, or more likely,
extending portfolio duration. While bond
valuation appears increasingly
attractive, higher economic growth and a
concerned Federal Reserve are potent
obstacles to a sustained rally. While
waiting for such an opportunity, which
we believe will eventually surface, we
will continue to overweight non-
government securities, where yields are
more attractive than those available
with government securities.
For the year ended December 31, 1999,
the Armada Balanced Allocation Fund
produced a total return of 14.97 percent
(before sales charges) for Class A
investors, 14.28 percent (before sales
charges) for Class B investors, and
15.27 percent for Class I investors. By
comparison, the S&P 500 Composite Index
returned 21.04 percent, the Lehman
Aggregate Bond Index returned -0.83
percent. The Balanced Allocation Hybrid
Benchmark returned 12.00 percent for the
year. This benchmark reflects a 60/40
blending of the S&P 500 Composite Index
and the Lehman Aggregate Bond Index.

ARMADA BOND FUND
In the face of a strong economy and
hawkish Federal Reserve, we continue to
maintain a neutral duration stance as
well as an overweight strategy in the
spread (non-US Treasury) sectors of the
Armada Bond Fund. In spite of our
optimistic view on the economy, the
potentially negative impact of likely
merger and acquisition activity in the
corporate sector has driven us to
slightly decrease our overweight in
corporate securities to 24% in favor of
less credit-sensitive, asset-backed and
mortgage-backed securities to 13% and
46% respectively. This compares to the
fund's benchmark, the Lehman Aggregate
Bond Index whose weightings are 22%
corporates, 0% asset-backed securities
and 34% mortgage-backed securities as of
December 31, 1999.
For the year ended December 31, 1999,
the Armada Bond Fund produced a total
return of -1.93 percent (before sales
charges) for Class A investors, -2.72
percent (before sales charges) for Class
B investors, and -1.89 percent for Class
I investors. During the same period, the
Index returned -0.83 percent. As of
December 31, 1999, the weighted average
life of the portfolio's holdings was
9.46 years, with an average credit
quality of AAA.
GOING FORWARD
We believe strong growth and
relatively low inflation will continue
to be dominant themes in the domestic
economy, but we are also mindful of the
relatively hawkish mood at the Federal
Reserve. Continued global expansion
should be good for growth, but strong
real growth, and cyclical inflation
fears will likely keep interest rates
relatively high in the short run. While
we recognize that higher interest rates
are not a positive for the fixed income
markets, we do not believe that
substantial changes in interest rates
early in 2000 will be the beginning of a
secular negative trend. Accordingly, we
are concerned with the fixed income
market's near- term prospects, but we
are confident that any substantial move
in interest rates will create a good
long term opportunity for fixed income
investors.

ARMADA ENHANCED INCOME FUND
Our overall strategy for the Enhanced
Income Fund is to remain duration
neutral versus our benchmark, the
Merrill Lynch 1-3 Year Govt/Corp. Index
(the "Index"), while continuing our
overweight in select spread sectors
(non-government securities) versus the
Index. During the quarter ended December
31, 1999 we maintained our significant
overweight in corporate bonds and
asset-backed securities. As of December
31, 1999, 32 percent of the Fund's net
assets were invested in corporate bonds
and 36 percent in asset- backed
securities. Spreads tightened
significantly during the quarter, but we
continue to believe that excess spread
available in short corporate and
asset-backed securities is attractive on
a risk reward basis. Further, we
continue to believe that positive
fundamentals and technicals will drive
spreads tighter in the long run.
Therefore, we remain overweighted in
short-term asset backed and corporate
securities.
GOING FORWARD
We believe strong growth and
relatively low inflation will continue
to be dominant themes in the domestic
economy, but we are also mindful of the
relatively hawkish mood at the Federal
Reserve. Continued global expansion
should be good for growth, but strong
real growth, and cyclical inflation
fears will likely keep interest rates
relatively high in the short run. While
we recognize that higher interest rates
are not a positive for the fixed income
markets, we do not believe that
substantial changes in interest rates
early in 2000 will be the beginning of a
secular negative trend. Accordingly, we
are concerned with the fixed income
market's near term prospects, but we are
confident that any substantial move in
interest rates will create a good
long-term opportunity for fixed income
investors. Spread sectors (non-US
Treasury securities) remain attractive
on a fundamental basis, but their
tightening potential has been diminished
by tightening interest rate spreads in
recent months. We believe spreads will
tighten further now that Y2K fears have
been subdued and liquidity has returned
to more normal levels.
For the year ended December 31, 1999,
the Armada Enhanced Income Fund produced
a total return of 3.15 percent (before
sales charges) for Class A investors and
3.20 percent for Class I investors.
During the same period, the Merrill
Lynch 1-3 Year Govt/Corp Index returned
3.25 percent. As of December 31, 1999,
the average maturity of the portfolio's
holdings was 1.70 years.

ARMADA INTERMEDIATE BOND FUND
In the face of a strong economy and
unfriendly Federal Reserve, we continue
to maintain a neutral duration stance as
well as an overweight strategy in the
spread (non-US Treasury) sectors. As of
December 31, 1999, 25 percent of the
Armada Intermediate Bond Fund's net
assets were invested in U.S. Treasury
and Agency securities, 17 percent in
mortgage-backed securities, 36 percent
in corporate bonds, and 22 percent in
asset-backed securities.
In spite of our optimistic view on the
economy, the potentially negative impact
of likely merger and acquisition
activity in the corporate sector has
driven us to slightly decrease our
overweight in corporate securities in
favor of less credit-sensitive,
asset-backed and mortgage-backed
securities. We continue to believe that
strong fundamentals justify tighter
spreads, but we also realize that recent
rallies in the spread markets may have
lessened the attractiveness of certain
sectors and securities. This considered,
we are carefully evaluating our current
spread product exposure.
GOING FORWARD
We believe strong growth and
relatively low inflation will continue
to be dominant themes in the domestic
economy, but we are also mindful of the
relatively hawkish mood at the Federal
Reserve. Continued global expansion
should be good for growth, but strong
real growth, and cyclical inflation
fears will likely keep interest rates
relatively high in the short run. While
we recognize that higher interest rates
are not a positive for the fixed income
markets, we do not believe that
substantial changes in interest rates
early in 2000 will be the beginning of a
secular negative trend. Accordingly, we
are concerned with the fixed income
market's near term prospects, but we are
confident that any substantial move in
interest rates will create a good long
term opportunity for fixed income
investors. Spread sectors (non-US
Treasury securities) remain attractive
on a fundamental basis, but their
tightening potential has been diminished
by tightening interest rate spreads in
recent months. We believe spreads will
tighten further now that Y2K fears have
been subdued and liquidity has returned
to more normal levels.
For the year ended December 31, 1999,
the Armada Intermediate Bond Fund
produced a total return of -0.37 percent
(before sales charges) for Class A
investors, -0.98 percent (before sales
charges) for Class B investors, and
- -0.04 percent for Class I investors.
During the same period, the Lehman
Intermediate Government/ Corporate Bond
Index returned 0.39 percent. As of
December 31, 1999, the weighted average
life of the portfolio's holdings was 5.0
years, with an average credit quality of
AA+.

ARMADA NATIONAL TAX EXEMPT BOND FUND(7)
The Armada National Tax Exempt Bond
Fund's gross total return for the fourth
quarter of 1999 was competitive with its
benchmark index, and in excess of the
average for its peer group, as measured
by the Lipper Intermediate Municipal
Fund universe. For the year ended
December 31, 1999, the Armada National
Tax Exempt Bond Fund produced a total
return of -0.91 percent (before sales
charges) for Class A investors, -1.81
percent (before sales charges) for Class
B investors, and -1.12 percent for Class
I investors. Over the same period, the
Fund's benchmark, the Lehman 10-Year
Municipal Bond Index produced a total
return of -1.24 percent.
The Fund's average maturity and
duration are slightly longer than its
benchmark, but the Fund contains
significantly more higher coupon bonds,
which is consistent with the Fund's
primary investment objective of income
generation and relative stability.
Credit quality remains extremely high
with more than 95% of the Fund's
holdings rated double A or higher.
GOING FORWARD
We expect the municipal market to
remain volatile over the next few
months, and anticipate that the Federal
Reserve will have to raise interest
rates at least once during the first
quarter of 2000. Consequently, we will
continue our strategy of purchasing
higher- coupon bonds and executing swaps
that could increase the Fund's income
distribution yield. New purchases will
continue to focus on higher-rated
securities until spreads between credit
grades widen.

ARMADA/PARKSTONE FUNDS
NOTES TO PRO FORMA COMBINING FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
AS OF NOVEMBER 30, 1999
1. Basis of Combination
The Pro Forma Combining Statement of Assets and Liabilities, including the
Pro Forma Portfolio of Investments, and the related Pro Forma Combining
Statement of Operations ("Pro Forma Statements") reflect the accounts of
the Parkstone Prime Obligations Fund and the Armada Money Market Fund, the
Parkstone U.S. Government Obligations Fund and the Armada Government Money
Market Fund, the Parkstone Tax-Free Fund and the Armada Tax Exempt Money
Market Fund, the Parkstone Bond Fund and the Armada Bond Fund, the
Parkstone Intermediate Government Fund and the Armada Intermediate Bond
Fund, the Parkstone Limited Maturity Bond Fund and the Armada Limited
Maturity Bond Fund, the Parkstone National Tax Exempt Bond Fund and the
Armada National Tax Exempt Bond Fund, the Parkstone Balanced Allocation
Fund and the Armada Balanced Allocation Fund, the Parkstone Equity Income
Fund and the Armada Equity Income Fund, the Parkstone International
Discovery Fund and the Armada International Equity Fund, the Parkstone
Small Capitalization Fund and the Armada Small Cap Growth Fund at November
30, 1999.
The Pro Forma Statements give effect to the proposed Agreement and Plan of
Reorganization (the "Reorganization") to be submitted to shareholders of
Parkstone. The Reorganization provides for the acquisition of all assets
and liabilities of the above Parkstone Funds by the above Armada Funds, in
exchange for Class I, A and B shares of the Armada Funds. Thereafter, there
will be a distribution of Class I, A and B shares of the above Armada Funds
to the respective shareholders in liquidation and subsequent termination
thereof. As a result of the Reorganization, the shareholders of the above
Parkstone Funds, will become the owners of that number of full and
fractional Class I, A and B shares of the corresponding Armada Fund having
an aggregate net asset value equal to the aggregate net asset value of
their shares of the above Parkstone Funds as of the close of business
immediately prior to the date that the above Parkstone Funds assets are
exchanged for Class I, A and B shares of the above Armada Funds.
The Pro Forma Statements reflect the expenses of each Fund in carrying out
its obligations under the Reorganization as though the merger occurred at
the beginning of the period presented.
The information contained herein is based on the experience of each Fund
for the periods ended November 30, 1999 and is designed to permit the
shareholders of the consolidating mutual funds to evaluate the financial
effect of the proposed Reorganization. The expenses of above Parkstone
Funds in connection with the Reorganization (including the cost of any
proxy soliciting agents) will be borne by National City Bank, Cleveland,
Ohio. It is not anticipated that the securities of the combined portfolio
will be sold in significant amounts in order to comply with the policies
and investment practices of Armada Funds.
The Pro Forma Statements should be read in conjunction with the historical
financial statements of each Fund incorporated by reference in the
Statement of Additional Information.
2. Shares of Beneficial Interest
The Pro Forma net asset values per share assume the issuance of Class I, A
and B shares of Armada Funds which would have been issued at November 30,
1999 in connection with the proposed Reorganization. Shareholders of above
Parkstone Funds would receive Class I, A and B shares of the above Armada
Funds based on conversion ratios determined on November 30, 1999. The
conversion ratios are calculated by dividing the net asset value of the
above Parkstone Funds by the net asset value per share of the respective
class of the above Armada Funds.
3. Pro Forma Operations
The Pro Forma Combining Statement of Operations assumes similar rates of
gross investment income for the investments of each Fund. Accordingly, the
combined gross investment income is equal to the sum of each Fund's gross
investment income. Pro Forma operating expenses include the actual expenses
of the Funds adjusted to reflect the expected expenses of the combined
entity. The investment advisory and distribution fees have been charged to
the combined Fund based on the fee schedule in effect for the Armada Funds
at the combined level of average net assets for the periods ended November
30, 1999.
