                                  JUNE 30, 2000

Note A - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

     The Company is operated as a diversified,  open-end  management  investment
company.

     Security valuation:  Investments in securities listed on the New York Stock
Exchange,  American Stock Exchange or other security  exchanges,  and securities
traded in the  Over-The-Counter  market are valued at their closing sales price.
If no sale has been reported for that day, the last  published  sale or the last
recorded bid price, whichever is the more recent, is used, unless in the opinion
of the Board of Directors  the value thus  obtained may not fairly  indicate the
actual market value,  in which case these  securities,  and any other assets for
which market quotations are not readily  available,  are valued at fair value as
determined  by the  management  and  approved  in good  faith  by the  Board  of
Directors.

     Federal income taxes:  For tax years  beginning after December 31, 1987, it
is the Company's intention to comply with the provisions of the Internal Revenue
Code   applicable   to  regulated   investment   companies   and  to  distribute
substantially   all  of  its  capital  gains  and   investment   income  to  its
shareholders.  Therefore,  provision has been made for Federal income taxes only
on the undistributed income which is immaterial.

     Other:  The  Company  follows   industry   practice  and  records  security
transactions on the trade date. Dividend income is recognized on the ex-dividend
date, and interest is recognized on an accrual basis.


Note B - Organizational and Registration Expenses
