The table below summarizes the expenses  associated with the Fund. This standard
format  was  developed  for use by all  mutual  funds to help an  investor  make
investment  decisions.  Of course, you should consider this expense  information
along with other important  information in this  Prospectus,  such as the Fund's
investment objective.

A.  SHAREHOLDER TRANSACTION EXPENSE

    offering price)........................................................ None

    Deferred Sales Load.................................................... None

1)   The  investment  management  fee has been reduced to reflect the  voluntary
     waiver of a portion of the fee by Key Advisers.  The maximum management fee
     absent waiver is .50%.
2)   Includes  a maximum  .25%  shareholder  servicing  fee  payable  to certain
     financial  institutions.  See "Fund  Organization  and Fees --  Shareholder
     Servicing."
3)   Without the voluntary waiver, the total operating expense ratio of the Fund
     would be .95%.

C.   EXAMPLE: You would pay the following expenses on a $1,000 investment in the
Fund, assuming (1) a 5% annual return and (2) redemption at the end of each time
period.

                                            1 YEAR   3 YEARS  5 YEARS  10 YEARS

Ohio Municipal Money Market Fund ...........$ 8      $24      $42      $93


THE PURPOSE OF THE TABLE IS TO ASSIST AN INVESTOR IN  UNDERSTANDING  THE VARIOUS
COSTS AND  EXPENSES  THAT AN INVESTOR IN THE FUND WOULD BEAR EITHER  DIRECTLY OR
INDIRECTLY.  SEE "FUND ORGANIZATION AND FEES" FOR A MORE COMPLETE  DISCUSSION OF
ANNUAL  OPERATING  EXPENSES  OF THE FUND.  THE  FOREGOING  EXAMPLE IS BASED UPON
EXPENSES  FOR THE PERIOD ENDED  OCTOBER 31, 1995 AND  EXPENSES  THAT THE FUND IS
EXPECTED TO INCUR DURING THE CURRENT FISCAL YEAR.  THE FOREGOING  EXAMPLE SHOULD
NOT BE CONSIDERED A  REPRESENTATION  OF ACTUAL OR EXPECTED FUND  PERFORMANCE  OR
EXPENSES. ACTUAL EXPENSES MAY BE GREATER OR LESS THAN THOSE SHOWN.
