HERITAGE INCOME TRUST
SUPPLEMENT DATED SEPTEMBER 7, 1999 TO THE PROSPECTUS DATED FEBRUARY 1, 1999
ADDITION TO WAIVER OF CLASS A SALES CHARGES
-------------------------------------------
The following paragraph supplements the section "Waiver of Class A Sales
Charge" on page 11 of the Prospectus:
In addition, Class A shares may be sold at net asset value without
any sales charges to participants of retirement plans which have at least
100 participants or $50 million dollars. Heritage may pay from its own
resources to the Distributor up to 1.00% of the purchase amount on the
first $3 million and 0.80% on assets thereafter, by these plans. Any
participant in these plans who redeems Class A shares within 18 months of
his or her purchase may be subject to a CDSC of 1.00% and Heritage will
retain the initial year's Rule 12b-1 fees.
The following information replaces the current section titled "CDSC
Waivers" on page 11 of the Prospectus:
CDSC WAIVERS. The CDSC for Class A shares, Class B shares and Class
C shares currently is waived if the shares are sold:
o to make certain distributions from retirement plans,
o because of shareholder death or disability (including shareholders
who own shares in joint tenancy with a spouse),
o to make payments through certain sales from a Systematic
Withdrawal Plan of up to 12% annually of the account balance at
the beginning of the plan, or
o to close out shareholder accounts that do not comply with the
minimum balance requirements.
