SUPPLEMENT DATED JANUARY 4, 1999
TO
PROSPECTUS DATED MAY 1, 1998 FOR
CITIFUNDSSM INTERNATIONAL GROWTH PORTFOLIO
Beginning on January 4, 1999, CitiFunds International Growth Portfolio
will offer two classes of shares: Class A and Class B.
Shares of the Fund that are outstanding on January 4, 1999 will be
classified as Class A shares. No sales charge will be payable as a result of
this classification. Investors holding Fund shares on that date will be able to
exchange those shares, and any shares acquired through capital appreciation and
the reinvestment of dividends and capital gains distributions on those shares,
into Class A shares of other CitiFunds and mutual funds managed or advised by
Citibank, N.A. without paying a sales charge.
Investors purchasing shares of the Fund on or after January 4, 1999 may
select Class A or Class B shares, with different sales charges and expense
levels. Please determine which class of shares best fits your particular
situation. See "Classes of Shares" below.
EXPENSE SUMMARY. The following tables summarize estimated shareholder
transaction and annual operating expenses for Class A and Class B shares of the
Fund and the underlying Portfolio in which the Fund invests. For more
information on costs and expenses, see "Management"- page 15 of the Prospectus
and "General Information - Expenses"- page 21 of the Prospectus.*

* These tables are intended to assist investors in understanding the
various costs and expenses that a shareholder of the Fund will bear,
either directly or indirectly. The tables show the fees paid to various
service providers after giving effect to expected voluntary partial fee
waivers and reimbursements. There can be no assurance that the fee
waivers and reimbursements reflected in the tables will continue at
these levels. The information in the tables and in the example below is
based on the Fund's expenses for the fiscal year ended December 31,
1997, as revised to reflect current fees.
(1) 12b-1 distribution fees are asset-based sales charges. Long-term
shareholders in the Fund could pay more in sales charges than the
economic equivalent of the maximum front-end sales charges permitted by
the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc.
(2) Absent fee waivers, 12b-1 Fees, Other Operating Expenses and Total Fund
Operating Expenses would be 0.15%, 0.50% and 1.90%, respectively, for
Class A shares and 1.00%, 0.65% and 2.65%, respectively, for Class B
shares. 12b-1 fees for Class A shares assume a 0.05% fee for electronic
print or media advertising expenses.
<PAGE>
Example: A shareholder would pay the following expenses on a $1,000 investment,
assuming a 5% annual return and redemption at the end of each period indicated
below:
- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
ONE THREE FIVE TEN
YEAR YEARS YEARS YEARS

CITIFUNDS INTERNATIONAL
GROWTH PoRTFOLIO
Class A $67 $102 $140 $246
Class B
Assuming redemption at
end of period $75 $108 $143 $265
Assuming no redemption $25 $78 $133 $225
- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Example assumes that all dividends are reinvested. Without waivers and
reimbursements, the amounts in the Example would be $68, $107, $148 and $261
for Class A shares, and $77, $112, $151 and $295 for Class B shares, assuming
redemption at the end of the period ($27, $82, $141 and $295 assuming no
redemption). For Class B shares, where redemption at the end of the period is
assumed, amounts in the Example assume deduction of the maximum applicable
contingent deferred sales charge, and all ten year amounts in the Example
assume conversion to Class A shares approximately eight years after purchase.
The assumption of a 5% annual return is required by the Securities and Exchange
Commission for all mutual funds, and is not a prediction of the Fund's future
performance. THE EXAMPLE SHOULD NOT BE CONSIDERED A REPRESENTATION OF PAST OR
FUTURE EXPENSES OF THE FUND. ACTUAL EXPENSES MAY BE GREATER OR LESS THAN ThOSE
SHOWN.
CLASSES OF SHARES. Beginning on January 4, 1999, the Fund will offer
two classes of shares, Class A and Class B. The main features of the classes
are summarized in this paragraph. More detailed information appears below.
Please determine which class of shares best fits your particular circumstances.
Class A shares have a front-end, or initial, sales charge. This sales charge
may be reduced or eliminated in certain circumstances. Class A shares have
lower annual expenses than Class B shares. Class B shares have no front-end
sales charge, but are subject to a deferred sales charge if you sell within
five years of purchase. Class B shares have higher annual expenses than Class A
shares. Class B shares automatically convert into Class A shares after eight
years. Both classes of shares are sold at net asset value for that class. Net
asset value may differ by class because Class B shares have higher expenses.
When you place purchase orders and make redemption requests, please
specify whether you wish to purchase or redeem Class A or Class B shares. If
you fail to specify, purchase orders will be deemed to be for Class A shares,
and Class A shares will be redeemed first.
CLASS A SHARES:
o Class A shares are sold at net asset value plus a front-end, or
initial, sales charge. The percentage sales charge goes down as
the amount of your investment in Class A shares goes up. See the
chart below for the percentage sales charge. After the initial
<PAGE>
sales charge is deducted from your investment, the balance of your
investment is invested in the Fund.
The sales charge may also be reduced or eliminated in certain
circumstances, as described in "Class A Shares - Sales Charge
Reductions" below. If you qualify to purchase Class A shares
without a sales load, you should purchase Class A shares rather
than Class B shares because Class A shares pay lower fees.

*A contingent deferred sales charge may apply in certain
instances. See below.
o Class A shares pay distribution fees of up to 0.10% of the average
daily net assets represented by the Class A shares. These fees are
currently being waived. This fee waiver is voluntary and may be
terminated at any time.
o Purchases of $500,000 or more are not subject to an initial sales
charge, but are subject to a 1% contingent deferred sales charge
in the event of certain redemptions within 12 months following
purchase. See below.
o The Distributor will pay commissions to brokers, dealers and other
institutions that sell Class A shares of the Fund as shown in the
table above. The Distributor retains approximately 10% of the
sales charge.
CLASS A SHARES - SALES CHARGE REDUCTIONS:
o Reinvestment. The sales charge does not apply to Class A shares
acquired through the reinvestment of dividends and capital gains
distributions.
o Eligible Purchasers. Class A shares may be purchased without a
sales charge by:
[] tax exempt organizations under Section 501(c)(3-13) of the
Internal Revenue Code
[] trust accounts for which Citibank, N.A or any subsidiary or
affiliate of Citibank acts as trustee and exercises
discretionary investment management authority
<PAGE>
[] accounts for which Citibank or any subsidiary or affiliate of
Citibank performs investment advisory services or charges fees
for acting as custodian
[] directors or trustees (and their immediate families) of any
investment company for which Citibank or any subsidiary or
affiliate of Citibank serves as the investment adviser or as a
service or shareholder servicing agent
[] employees of Citibank and its affiliates, CFBDS, Inc. and its
affiliates or any Shareholder Servicing Agent and its
affiliates (including immediate families of any of the
foregoing)
[] investors participating in a fee-based or promotional
arrangement sponsored or advised by Citibank or its affiliates
[] investors participating in a rewards program that offers Fund
shares as an investment option based on an investor's balances
in selected Citigroup Inc. products and services
[] employees of members of the National Association of Securities
Dealers, Inc., provided that such sales are made upon the
assurance of the purchaser that the purchase is made for
investment purposes and that the securities will not be resold
except through redemption or repurchase
[] separate accounts used to fund certain unregistered variable
annuity contracts
[] direct rollovers by plan participants from a 401(k) plan
offered to Citigroup employees
[] shareholder accounts established through a reorganization or
similar form of business combination approved by the Fund's
Board of Trustees or by the Board of Trustees of any other
CitiFund or mutual fund managed or advised by Citibank (all of
such funds being referred to herein as CitiFunds) the terms of
which entitle those shareholders to purchase shares of the
Fund or any other CitiFund at net asset value without a sales
charge
[] employee benefit plans qualified under Section 401 of the
Internal Revenue Code, including salary reduction plans
qualified under Section 401(k) of the Code, subject to minimum
requirements as may be established by CFBDS with respect to
the number of employees or amount of purchase; currently,
these criteria require that:
+ the employer establishing the qualified plan have at least
50 eligible employees, or
+ the amount invested by the qualified plan in the Fund or
in any combination of CitiFunds totals a minimum of
$500,000
[] investors purchasing $500,000 or more of Class A shares;
however, a contingent deferred sales charge will be imposed on
the investments in the event of certain share redemptions
within 12 months following the share purchase, at the rate of
1% of the lesser of the value of the shares redeemed (not
<PAGE>
including reinvested dividends and capital gains
distributions) or the total cost of the shares; the contingent
deferred sales charge on Class A shares will be waived under
the same circumstances as the contingent deferred sales charge
on Class B shares will be waived; in determining whether a
contingent deferred sales charge on Class A shares is payable,
and if so, the amount of the charge:
+ it is assumed that shares not subject to the contingent
deferred sales charge are the first redeemed followed by
other shares held for the longest period of time
+ all investments made during a calendar month will age one
month on the last day of the month and each subsequent
month
+ any applicable contingent deferred sales charge will be
deferred upon an exchange of Class A shares for Class A
shares of another CitiFund and deducted from the
redemption proceeds when the exchanged shares are
subsequently redeemed (assuming the contingent deferred
sales charge is then payable)
+ the holding period of Class A shares so acquired through
an exchange will be aggregated with the period during
which the original Class A shares were held
[] subject to appropriate documentation, investors where the
amount invested represents redemption proceeds from a mutual
fund (other than a CitiFund), if:
+ the redeemed shares were subject to an initial sales
charge or a deferred sales charge (whether or not actually
imposed), and
+ the redemption has occurred no more than 60 days prior to
the purchase of Class A shares of the Fund
[] an investor who has a business relationship with an investment
consultant or other registered representative who joined a
broker-dealer which has a sales agreement with CFBDS from
another investment firm within six months prior to the date of
purchase by the investor, if:
+ the investor redeems shares of another mutual fund sold
through the investment firm that previously employed that
investment consultant or other registered representative,
and either paid an initial sales charge or was at some
time subject to, but did not actually pay, a deferred
sales charge or redemption fee with respect to the
redemption proceeds,
+ the redemption is made within 60 days prior to the
investment in the Fund, and
+ the net asset value of the shares of the Fund sold to that
investor without a sales charge does not exceed the
proceeds of the redemption
<PAGE>
o Reduced Sales Charge Plan. A qualified group may purchase shares
as a single purchaser under the reduced sales charge plan. The
purchases by the group are lumped together and the sales charge is
based on the lump sum. A qualified group must:
[] have been in existence for more than six months
[] have a purpose other than acquiring Fund shares at a discount
[] satisfy uniform criteria that enable CFBDS to realize
economies of scale in its costs of distributing shares
[] have more than ten members
[] be available to arrange for group meetings between
representatives of the Fund and the members
[] agree to include sales and other materials related to the Fund
in its publications and mailings to members at reduced or no
cost to the Distributor
[] seek to arrange for payroll deduction or other bulk
transmission of investments to the Fund
o Right of Accumulation. Eligible investors are permitted to
purchase Class A shares of the Fund at the public offering price
applicable to the total of:
[] the dollar amount then being purchased, plus
[] an amount equal to the then-current net asset value or cost
(whichever is higher) of the purchaser's combined holdings in
certain CitiFunds
See the Statement of Additional Information for more information.
o Letter of Intent. If an investor anticipates purchasing $25,000 or
more of Class A shares of the Fund alone or in combination with
Class B shares of the Fund or any of the classes of certain other
CitiFunds within a 13-month period, by completing a letter of
intent the investor may obtain the shares at the same reduced
sales charge as though the total quantity were invested in one
lump sum, subject to granting a power of attorney to redeem shares
if the intended purchases are not completed. See the Statement of
Additional Information for more information.
o Reinstatement Privilege. Shareholders who have redeemed Class A
shares may reinstate their Fund account without a sales charge up
to the dollar amount redeemed (with a credit for any contingent
deferred sales charge paid) by purchasing Class A shares of the
Fund within 90 days after the redemption. To take advantage of
this reinstatement privilege, shareholders must notify their
Shareholder Servicing Agent in writing at the time the privilege
is exercised.
CLASS B SHARES:
o Class B shares are sold at net asset value without a front-end
sales charge, but they are subject to a contingent deferred sales
charge.
<PAGE>
o Class B shares pay a combined distribution and service fee of up
to 1.00% of the average daily net assets represented by the Class
B shares.
o Class B shares have a contingent deferred sales charge (CDSC).
This sales charge goes down the longer you hold your Class B
shares. See the chart below for the amount of the sales charge.
The sales charge is deducted from your redemption proceeds if you
redeem your Class B shares within five years of purchasing them.
------------------------------------------------------------------
REDEMPTION DURING CDSC ON SHARES BEING SOLD
------------------------------------------------------------------
1st year since purchase 5.00%
------------------------------------------------------------------
2nd year since purchase 4.00%
------------------------------------------------------------------
3rd year since purchase 3.00%
------------------------------------------------------------------
4th year since purchase 2.00%
------------------------------------------------------------------
5th year since purchase 1.00%
------------------------------------------------------------------
6th year (or later) since purchase None
------------------------------------------------------------------
o The CDSC is based on the original purchase price or the current
market value of the shares being sold, whichever is less.
o There is no CDSC on Class B shares representing capital
appreciation or on Class B shares acquired through reinvestment of
dividends or capital gains distributions.
o The Fund will assume that a redemption of Class B shares is made:
[] first, of Class B shares representing capital appreciation
[] next, of shares representing the reinvestment of dividends and
capital gains distributions
[] finally of other shares held by the investor for the longest
period of time
o The holding period of Class B shares of the Fund acquired through
an exchange with another CitiFund will be calculated from the date
that the Class B shares were initially acquired in the other
CitiFund, and Class B shares being redeemed will be considered to
represent, as applicable, capital appreciation or dividend and
capital gains distribution reinvestments in the other fund. When
determining the amount of the CDSC, the Fund will use the CDSC
schedule of any fund from which you have exchanged shares that
would result in you paying the highest CDSC.
o Class B shares automatically convert to Class A shares of the Fund
approximately eight years after issuance, together with a pro rata
portion of all Class B shares representing dividends and other
distributions paid in additional Class B shares. Shares are
converted based on the relative net asset values per share of the
<PAGE>
two classes on the first business day of the month in which the
eighth anniversary of the issuance of the Class B shares occurs.
Because the net asset value of a Class A share may be higher than
that of a Class B share, you may receive fewer Class A shares than
the number of Class B shares converted, but the dollar value will
be the same.
o Commissions will be paid to brokers, dealers and other
institutions that sell Class B shares in the amount of 4.50% of
the purchase price of Class B shares sold by these entities. These
commissions are not paid on exchanges from other CitiFunds or on
sales of Class B shares to investors exempt from the CDSC.
CLASS B SHARES - CDSC ELIMINATION:
o Reinvestment. There is no CDSC on shares representing capital
appreciation or on shares acquired through reinvestment of
dividends or capital gains distributions.
o Waivers. The CDSC will be waived in connection with:
[] exchanges into certain CitiFunds
[] a total or partial redemption made within one year of the
death of the shareholder; this waiver is available where the
deceased shareholder is either the sole shareholder or owns
the shares with his or her spouse as a joint tenant with right
of survivorship, and applies only to redemption of shares held
at the time of death
[] a lump sum or other distribution in the case of an Individual
Retirement Account (IRA), a self-employed individual
retirement plan (Keogh Plan) or a custodian account under
Section 403(b) of the Internal Revenue Code, in each case
following attainment of age 59 1/2
[] a total or partial redemption resulting from any distribution
following retirement in the case of a tax-qualified retirement
plan
[] a redemption resulting from a tax-free return of an excess
contribution to an IRA
EXCHANGES
o Shares of the Fund may be exchanged for shares of the same class
of certain other CitiFunds, or may be acquired through an
exchange of shares of the same class of those funds. Class A
shares also may be exchanged for shares of certain CitiFunds
money market funds that offer only a single class of shares,
unless the Class A shares are subject to a contingent deferred
sales charge. Class B shares may not be exchanged for shares of
CitiFunds money market funds that offer only a single class of
shares. No initial sales charge is imposed on shares being
acquired through an exchange unless Class A shares are being
acquired and the sales charge of the fund being exchanged into
<PAGE>
is greater than the current sales charge for Class A shares of
the Fund (in which case an initial sales charge will be imposed
at a rate equal to the difference). Investors whose shares are
outstanding on January 4, 1999 will be able to exchange those
Class A shares, and any shares acquired through capital
appreciation and the reinvestment of dividends and capital gains
distributions on those shares, into Class A shares of the other
funds without paying any sales charge. No contingent deferred
sales charge is imposed on Class B shares when they are
exchanged for Class B shares of certain other CitiFunds. This
exchange privilege may be changed or terminated at any time with
at least 60 days' notice, when notice is required by applicable
rules and regulations.
DISTRIBUTION PLANS. The Fund maintains separate Distribution Plans for
Class A and Class B shares, which have been adopted in accordance with Rule
12b-1 under the 1940 Act. Under the Class A Plan, the Fund may pay monthly fees
at an annual rate not to exceed 0.10% of the average daily net assets
represented by Class A shares of the Fund. Under the Class B Plan, the Fund may
pay a combined monthly distribution and service fee at an annual rate not to
exceed 1.00% of the average daily net assets represented by Class B shares of
the Fund. These fees may be used to make payments to the Distributor for
distribution services and to others as compensation for the sale of shares of
the applicable class of the Fund, for advertising, marketing or other
promotional activity, and for preparation, printing and distribution of
prospectuses, statements of additional information and reports for recipients
other than regulators and existing shareholders. The Fund also may make
payments to the Distributor and others for providing personal service or the
maintenance of shareholder accounts. Under the Class A Plan, Class A shares may
also pay an additional fee of up to 0.05% of the average daily net assets
represented by the Class A shares in anticipation of, or as reimbursement for,
expenses incurred in connection with print or electronic media advertising in
connection with the sale of Class A shares. The Fund did not pay this fee
during its most recent fiscal year, and does not anticipate paying it during
the current fiscal year.
The amounts paid to each recipient may vary based upon certain factors,
including, among other things, the levels of sales of Fund shares and/or
shareholder services provided. Recipients may receive different compensation
for sales of Class A and Class B shares.
The Distributor provides to the Trustees quarterly a written report of
amounts expended pursuant to the Plans and the purposes for which the
expenditures were made.
During the period they are in effect, the Plans and related
Distribution Agreements obligate the Fund to pay fees to the Distributor and
others as compensation for their services, not as reimbursement for specific
expenses incurred. Thus, even if these entities' expenses exceed the fees
provided for under the applicable Plan, the Fund will not be obligated to pay
more than those fees and, if their expenses are less than the fees paid to
them, they will realize a profit. The Fund will pay the fees to the Distributor
and others until the applicable Plan or Distribution Agreement is terminated or
<PAGE>
not renewed. In that event, the Distributor's or other recipient's expenses in
excess of fees received or accrued through the termination date will be the
Distributor's or other recipient's sole responsibility and not obligations of
the Fund.

SUPPLEMENT DATED JANUARY 4, 1999
TO
STATEMENT OF ADDITIONAL INFORMATION DATED MAY 1, 1998 FOR
CITIFUNDSSM INTERNATIONAL GROWTH PORTFOLIO
SALES CHARGES. Shares of the Fund are sold at net asset value, plus, in
the case of Class A shares, a front-end, or initial, sales charge that may be
reduced on purchases involving substantial amounts and that may be eliminated
in certain circumstances. A contingent deferred sales charge is imposed on
redemptions of certain Class B shares made within five years of purchase.
PERFORMANCE. Total rates of return for the Fund may be calculated on
investments at various sales charge levels or at net asset value. Any
performance data which is based on a reduced sales charge or net asset value
would be reduced if the maximum sales charge were taken into account.
DETERMINATION OF NET ASSET VALUE. Net asset value is calculated
separately for each class. Per share net asset value of the classes of the
Fund's shares can be expected to differ because the Class B shares bear higher
expenses than Class A shares.
LETTER OF INTENT. If an investor anticipates purchasing $25,000 or more
of Class A shares of the Fund alone or in combination with Class B shares of
the Fund or any of the classes of other CitiFunds or mutual funds managed or
advised by Citibank (all of such funds being referred to herein as CitiFunds)
within a 13-month period, the investor may obtain the shares at the same
reduced sales charge as though the total quantity were invested in one lump sum
by completing a letter of intent on the terms described below. Subject to
acceptance by CFBDS, Inc., the Fund's distributor, and the conditions mentioned
below, each purchase will be made at a public offering price applicable to a
single transaction of the dollar amount specified in the letter of intent.
o The shareholder's Shareholder Servicing Agent must inform CFBDS
that the letter of intent is in effect each time shares are
purchased.
o The shareholder makes no commitment to purchase additional
shares, but if his or her purchases within 13 months plus the
value of shares credited toward completion of the letter of
intent do not total the sum specified, an increased sales charge
will apply as described below.
o A purchase not originally made pursuant to a letter of intent
may be included under a subsequent letter of intent executed
within 90 days of the purchase if CFBDS is informed in writing
of this intent within the 90-day period.
<PAGE>
o The value of shares of the Fund presently held, at cost or
maximum offering price (whichever is higher), on the date of the
first purchase under the letter of intent, may be included as a
credit toward the completion of the letter, but the reduced
sales charge applicable to the amount covered by the letter is
applied only to new purchases.
o Instructions for issuance of shares in the name of a person
other than the person signing the letter of intent must be
accompanied by a written statement from the Shareholder
Servicing Agent stating that the shares were paid for by the
person signing the letter.
o Neither income dividends nor capital gains distributions taken
in additional shares will apply toward the completion of the
letter of intent.
o The value of any shares redeemed or otherwise disposed of by the
purchaser prior to termination or completion of the letter of
intent are deducted from the total purchases made under the
letter of intent.
If the investment specified in the letter of intent is not completed
(either prior to or by the end of the 13-month period), the Shareholder
Servicing Agent will redeem, within 20 days of the expiration of the letter of
intent, an appropriate number of the shares in order to realize the difference
between the reduced sales charge that would apply if the investment under the
letter of intent had been completed and the sales charge that would normally
apply to the number of shares actually purchased. By completing and signing the
letter of intent, the shareholder irrevocably grants a power of attorney to the
or Shareholder Servicing Agent to redeem any or all shares purchased under the
letter of intent, with full power of substitution.
RIGHT OF ACCUMULATION. A shareholder qualifies for cumulative quantity
discounts on the purchase of Class A shares when his or her new investment,
together with the current offering price value of all holdings of that
shareholder in the CitiFunds, reaches a discount level. For example, if a Fund
shareholder owns shares valued at $50,000 and purchases an additional $50,000
of Class A shares of the Fund, the sales charge for the additional $50,000
purchase would be at the rate of 3.00% (the rate applicable to single
transactions from $100,000 to less than $250,000). A shareholder must provide
the Shareholder Servicing Agent with information to verify that the quantity
sales charge discount is applicable at the time the investment is made.
CONVERSION OF CLASS B SHARES. A shareholder's Class B shares will
automatically convert to Class A shares in the Fund approximately eight years
after the date of issuance, together with a pro rata portion of all Class B
shares representing dividends and other distributions paid in additional Class
B shares. The conversion will be effected at the relative net asset values per
share of the two classes on the first business day of the month in which the
eighth anniversary of the issuance of the Class B shares occurs. If a
<PAGE>
shareholder effects one or more exchanges among Class B shares of the CitiFunds
during the eight-year period, the holding periods for the shares so exchanged
will be counted toward the eight-year period. Because the per share net asset
value of the Class A shares may be higher than that of the Class B shares at
the time of conversion, a shareholder may receive fewer Class A shares than the
number of Class B shares converted, although the dollar value will be the same.
SERVICE FEES. The Fund pays fees for distribution and shareholder
servicing pursuant to a Distribution Plan adopted with respect to each class of
shares of the Fund in accordance with Rule 12b-1 under the Investment Company
Act of 1940, as amended. The Plan with respect to Class A shares provides that
the Fund may pay monthly fees at an annual rate not to exceed 0.10% of the
average daily net assets represented by Class A shares of the Fund. The Plan
with respect to Class B shares provides that the Fund may pay a combined
monthly distribution and service fee of up to 1.00% of the average daily net
assets represented by the Class B shares. Under the Class A Plan, Class A
shares may also pay an additional fee of up to 0.05% of the average daily net
assets represented by the Class A shares in anticipation of, or as
reimbursement for, expenses incurred in connection with print or electronic
media advertising in connection with the sale of Class A shares. The Fund did
not pay this fee during its most recent fiscal year, and does not anticipate
paying it during the current fiscal year.

SUPPLEMENT DATED JANUARY 4, 1999
TO
PROSPECTUS DATED JANUARY 7, 1998 FOR
CITIFUNDSSM INTERNATIONAL GROWTH & INCOME PORTFOLIO
Beginning on January 4, 1999, CitiFunds International Growth & Income
Portfolio will offer two classes of shares: Class A and Class B.
Shares of the Fund that are outstanding on January 4, 1999 will be
classified as Class A shares. No sales charge will be payable as a result of
this classification. Investors holding Fund shares on that date will be able to
exchange those shares, and any shares acquired through capital appreciation and
the reinvestment of dividends and capital gains distributions on those shares,
into Class A shares of other CitiFunds and mutual funds managed or advised by
Citibank, N.A. without paying a sales charge.
Investors purchasing shares of the Fund on or after January 4, 1999 may
select Class A or Class B shares, with different sales charges and expense
levels. Please determine which class of shares best fits your particular
situation. See "Classes of Shares" below.
EXPENSE SUMMARY. The following tables summarize estimated shareholder
transaction and annual operating expenses for Class A and Class B shares of the
Fund and its underlying Portfolio. For more information on costs and expenses,
see "Management"- page 13 of the Prospectus and "General Information -
Expenses"- page 19 of the Prospectus.*

* These tables are intended to assist investors in understanding the
various costs and expenses that a shareholder will bear, either
directly or indirectly. The tables show the fees paid to various
service providers after giving effect to expected voluntary partial fee
waivers and reimbursements. There can be no assurance that the fee
waivers and reimbursements reflected in the tables will continue at
these levels. Because the Fund is newly organized, all amounts in the
tables and in the example below are estimated for the current fiscal
year and information is given in the example below only for one and
three year periods.
(1) A combined fee for investment advisory and administrative services.
(2) Includes fees for distribution and shareholder servicing. Long-term
shareholders in the Fund could pay more in sales charges than the
economic equivalent of the maximum front-end sales charges permitted by
the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc.
(3) Absent fee waivers, other expenses and total fund operating expenses
would be 0.60% and 1.90%, respectively, for Class A shares, and 0.60%
and 2.65%, respectively, for Class B shares.
<PAGE>
Example: A shareholder would pay the following expenses on a $1,000 investment,
assuming a 5% annual return and redemption at the end of each period indicated
below:
-----------------------------------------------------

CITIFUNDS INTERNATIONAL
GROWTH & INCOME PORTFOLIO
Class A $66 $99
Class B
Assuming redemption at end
of period $74 $105
Assuming no redemption $24 $75
-----------------------------------------------------
The Example assumes that all dividends are reinvested. Without waivers and
reimbursements, the amounts in the Example would be $68 and $107 for Class A
shares; and $77 and $112 for Class B shares, assuming redemption at the end of
the period ($27 and $82 assuming no redemption). For Class B shares, where
redemption at the end of the period is assumed, amounts in the Example assume
deduction of the maximum applicable contingent deferred sales charge, and all
ten year amounts in the Example assume conversion to Class A shares
approximately eight years after purchase. The assumption of a 5% annual return
is required by the Securities and Exchange Commission for all mutual funds, and
is not a prediction of the Fund's future performance. THE EXAMPLE SHOULD NOT BE
CONSIDERED A REPRESENTATION OF PAST OR FUTURE EXPENSES OF THE FUND. ACTUAL
EXPENSES MAY BE GREATER OR LESS THAN THOSE SHOwN.
CLASSES OF SHARES. Beginning on January 4, 1999, the Fund will offer
two classes of shares, Class A and Class B. The main features of the classes
are summarized in this paragraph. More detailed information appears below.
Please determine which class of shares best fits your particular circumstances.
Class A shares have a front-end, or initial, sales charge. This sales charge
may be reduced or eliminated in certain circumstances. Class A shares have
lower annual expenses than Class B shares. Class B shares have no front-end
sales charge, but are subject to a deferred sales charge if you sell within
five years of purchase. Class B shares have higher annual expenses than Class A
shares. Class B shares automatically convert into Class A shares after eight
years. Both classes of shares are sold at net asset value for that class. Net
asset value may differ by class because Class B shares have higher expenses.
When you place purchase orders and make redemption requests, please
specify whether you wish to purchase or redeem Class A or Class B shares. If
you fail to specify, purchase orders will be deemed to be for Class A shares,
and Class A shares will be redeemed first.
CLASS A SHARES:
o Class A shares are sold at net asset value plus a front-end, or
initial, sales charge. The percentage sales charge goes down as
the amount of your investment in Class A shares goes up. See the
chart below for the percentage sales charge. After the initial
<PAGE>
sales charge is deducted from your investment, the balance of your
investment is invested in the Fund.
The sales charge may also be reduced or eliminated in certain
circumstances, as described in "Class A Shares - Sales Charge
Reductions" below. If you qualify to purchase Class A shares
without a sales load, you should purchase Class A shares rather
than Class B shares because Class A shares pay lower fees.

</TABLE>
*A contingent deferred sales charge may apply in certain
instances. See below.
o Class A shares pay service fees of up to 0.25% of the average
daily net assets represented by the Class A shares.
o Purchases of $500,000 or more are not subject to an initial sales
charge, but are subject to a 1% contingent deferred sales charge
in the event of certain redemptions within 12 months following
purchase. See below.
o The Distributor will pay commissions to brokers, dealers and other
institutions that sell Class A shares of the Fund as shown in the
table above. The Distributor retains approximately 10% of the
sales charge. Entities that sell Class A shares will also receive
the service fee payable under the Class A Service Plan at an
annual rate equal to 0.25% of the average daily net assets
represented by the Class A shares sold by them.
CLASS A SHARES - SALES CHARGE REDUCTIONS:
o Reinvestment. The sales charge does not apply to Class A shares
acquired through the reinvestment of dividends and capital gains
distributions.
o Eligible Purchasers. Class A shares may be purchased without a
sales charge by:
[] tax exempt organizations under Section 501(c)(3-13) of the
Internal Revenue Code
[] trust accounts for which Citibank, N.A or any subsidiary or
affiliate of Citibank acts as trustee and exercises
discretionary investment management authority
<PAGE>
[] accounts for which Citibank or any subsidiary or affiliate of
Citibank performs investment advisory services or charges fees
for acting as custodian
[] directors or trustees (and their immediate families) of any
investment company for which Citibank or any subsidiary or
affiliate of Citibank serves as the investment adviser or as a
shareholder servicing or service agent
[] employees of Citibank and its affiliates, CFBDS, Inc. and its
affiliates or any Service Agent and its affiliates (including
immediate families of any of the foregoing)
[] investors participating in a fee-based or promotional
arrangement sponsored or advised by Citibank or its affiliates
[] investors participating in a rewards program that offers Fund
shares as an investment option based on an investor's balances
in selected Citigroup Inc. products and services
[] employees of members of the National Association of Securities
Dealers, Inc., provided that such sales are made upon the
assurance of the purchaser that the purchase is made for
investment purposes and that the securities will not be resold
except through redemption or repurchase
[] separate accounts used to fund certain unregistered variable
annuity contracts
[] direct rollovers by plan participants from a 401(k) plan
offered to Citigroup employees
[] shareholder accounts established through a reorganization or
similar form of business combination approved by the Fund's
Board of Trustees or by the Board of Trustees of any other
CitiFund or mutual fund managed or advised by Citibank (all of
such funds being referred to herein as CitiFunds) the terms of
which entitle those shareholders to purchase shares of the
Fund or any other CitiFund at net asset value without a sales
charge
[] employee benefit plans qualified under Section 401 of the
Internal Revenue Code, including salary reduction plans
qualified under Section 401(k) of the Code, subject to minimum
requirements as may be established by CFBDS with respect to
the number of employees or amount of purchase; currently,
these criteria require that:
+ the employer establishing the qualified plan have at least
50 eligible employees, or
+ the amount invested by the qualified plan in the Fund or
in any combination of CitiFunds totals a minimum of
$500,000
[] investors purchasing $500,000 or more of Class A shares;
however, a contingent deferred sales charge will be imposed on
the investments in the event of certain share redemptions
within 12 months following the share purchase, at the rate of
1% of the lesser of the value of the shares redeemed (not
<PAGE>
including reinvested dividends and capital gains
distributions) or the total cost of the shares; the contingent
deferred sales charge on Class A shares will be waived under
the same circumstances as the contingent deferred sales charge
on Class B shares will be waived; in determining whether a
contingent deferred sales charge on Class A shares is payable,
and if so, the amount of the charge:
+ it is assumed that shares not subject to the contingent
deferred sales charge are the first redeemed followed by
other shares held for the longest period of time
+ all investments made during a calendar month will age one
month on the last day of the month and each subsequent
month
+ any applicable contingent deferred sales charge will be
deferred upon an exchange of Class A shares for Class A
shares of another CitiFund and deducted from the
redemption proceeds when the exchanged shares are
subsequently redeemed (assuming the contingent deferred
sales charge is then payable)
+ the holding period of Class A shares so acquired through
an exchange will be aggregated with the period during
which the original Class A shares were held
[] subject to appropriate documentation, investors where the
amount invested represents redemption proceeds from a mutual
fund (other than a CitiFund), if:
+ the redeemed shares were subject to an initial sales
charge or a deferred sales charge (whether or not actually
imposed), and
+ the redemption has occurred no more than 60 days prior to
the purchase of Class A shares of the Fund
[] an investor who has a business relationship with an investment
consultant or other registered representative who joined a
broker-dealer which has a sales agreement with CFBDS from
another investment firm within six months prior to the date of
purchase by the investor, if:
+ the investor redeems shares of another mutual fund sold
through the investment firm that previously employed that
investment consultant or other registered representative,
and either paid an initial sales charge or was at some
time subject to, but did not actually pay, a deferred
sales charge or redemption fee with respect to the
redemption proceeds,
+ the redemption is made within 60 days prior to the
investment in the Fund, and
+ the net asset value of the shares of the Fund sold to that
investor without a sales charge does not exceed the
proceeds of the redemption
<PAGE>
o Reduced Sales Charge Plan. A qualified group may purchase shares
as a single purchaser under the reduced sales charge plan. The
purchases by the group are lumped together and the sales charge is
based on the lump sum. A qualified group must:
[] have been in existence for more than six months
[] have a purpose other than acquiring Fund shares at a discount
[] satisfy uniform criteria that enable CFBDS to realize
economies of scale in its costs of distributing shares
[] have more than ten members
[] be available to arrange for group meetings between
representatives of the Fund and the members
[] agree to include sales and other materials related to the Fund
in its publications and mailings to members at reduced or no
cost to the Distributor
[] seek to arrange for payroll deduction or other bulk
transmission of investments to the Fund
o Right of Accumulation. Eligible investors are permitted to
purchase Class A shares of the Fund at the public offering price
applicable to the total of:
[] the dollar amount then being purchased, plus
[] an amount equal to the then-current net asset value or cost
(whichever is higher) of the purchaser's combined holdings in
certain CitiFunds
See the Statement of Additional Information for more information.
o Letter of Intent. If an investor anticipates purchasing $25,000 or
more of Class A shares of the Fund alone or in combination with
Class B shares of the Fund or any of the classes of certain other
CitiFunds within a 13-month period, by completing a letter of
intent the investor may obtain the shares at the same reduced
sales charge as though the total quantity were invested in one
lump sum, subject to granting a power of attorney to redeem shares
if the intended purchases are not completed. See the Statement of
Additional Information for more information.
o Reinstatement Privilege. Shareholders who have redeemed Class A
shares may reinstate their Fund account without a sales charge up
to the dollar amount redeemed (with a credit for any contingent
deferred sales charge paid) by purchasing Class A shares of the
Fund within 90 days after the redemption. To take advantage of
this reinstatement privilege, shareholders must notify the
Transfer Agent or, if they are customers of a Service Agent, their
Service Agent in writing at the time the privilege is exercised.
<PAGE>
CLASS B SHARES:
o Class B shares are sold at net asset value without a front-end
sales charge, but they are subject to a contingent deferred sales
charge.
o Class B shares pay a combined distribution and service fee of up
to 1.00% of the average daily net assets represented by the Class
B shares.
o Class B shares have a contingent deferred sales charge (CDSC).
This sales charge goes down the longer you hold your Class B
shares. See the chart below for the amount of the sales charge.
The sales charge is deducted from your redemption proceeds if you
redeem your Class B shares within five years of purchasing them.
- ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
REDEMPTION DURING CDSC ON SHARES BEING SOLD
- ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
1st year since purchase 5.00%
- ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
2nd year since purchase 4.00%
- ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
3rd year since purchase 3.00%

4th year since purchase 2.00%
- ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
5th year since purchase 1.00%
- ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
6th year (or later) since purchase None
- ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
o The CDSC is based on the original purchase price or the current
market value of the shares being sold, whichever is less.
o There is no CDSC on Class B shares representing capital
appreciation or on Class B shares acquired through reinvestment of
dividends or capital gains distributions.
o The Fund will assume that a redemption of Class B shares is made:
[] first, of Class B shares representing capital appreciation
[] next, of shares representing the reinvestment of dividends and
capital gains distributions
[] finally of other shares held by the investor for the longest
period of time
o The holding period of Class B shares of the Fund acquired through
an exchange with another CitiFund will be calculated from the date
that the Class B shares were initially acquired in the other
CitiFund, and Class B shares being redeemed will be considered to
represent, as applicable, capital appreciation or dividend and
capital gains distribution reinvestments in the other fund. When
determining the amount of the CDSC, the Fund will use the CDSC
schedule of any fund from which you have exchanged shares that
would result in you paying the highest CDSC.
o Class B shares automatically convert to Class A shares of the Fund
approximately eight years after issuance, together with a pro rata
<PAGE>
portion of all Class B shares representing dividends and other
distributions paid in additional Class B shares. Shares are
converted based on the relative net asset values per share of the
two classes on the first business day of the month in which the
eighth anniversary of the issuance of the Class B shares occurs.
Because the net asset value of a Class A share may be higher than
that of a Class B share, you may receive fewer Class A shares than
the number of Class B shares converted, but the dollar value will
be the same.
o Commissions will be paid to brokers, dealers and other
institutions that sell Class B shares in the amount of 4.50% of
the purchase price of Class B shares sold by these entities. These
commissions are not paid on exchanges from other CitiFunds or on
sales of Class B shares to investors exempt from the CDSC.
Entities that sell Class B shares will also receive a portion of
the service fee payable under the Class B Service Plan at an
annual rate equal to 0.25% of the average daily net assets
represented by the Class B shares sold by them.
CLASS B SHARES - CDSC ELIMINATION:
o Reinvestment. There is no CDSC on shares representing capital
appreciation or on shares acquired through reinvestment of
dividends or capital gains distributions.
o Waivers. The CDSC will be waived in connection with:
[] exchanges into certain CitiFunds
[] a total or partial redemption made within one year of the
death of the shareholder; this waiver is available where the
deceased shareholder is either the sole shareholder or owns
the shares with his or her spouse as a joint tenant with right
of survivorship, and applies only to redemption of shares held
at the time of death
[] a lump sum or other distribution in the case of an Individual
Retirement Account (IRA), a self-employed individual
retirement plan (Keogh Plan) or a custodian account under
Section 403(b) of the Internal Revenue Code, in each case
following attainment of age 59 1/2
[] a total or partial redemption resulting from any distribution
following retirement in the case of a tax-qualified retirement
plan
[] a redemption resulting from a tax-free return of an excess
contribution to an IRA
EXCHANGES
o Shares of the Fund may be exchanged for shares of the same class
of certain other CitiFunds, or may be acquired through an exchange
of shares of the same class of those funds. Class A shares also
may be exchanged for shares of certain CitiFunds money market
funds that offer only a single class of shares, unless the Class A
<PAGE>
shares are subject to a contingent deferred sales charge. Class B
shares may not be exchanged for shares of CitiFunds money market
funds that offer only a single class of shares. No initial sales
charge is imposed on shares being acquired through an exchange
unless Class A shares are being acquired and the sales charge for
Class A shares of the fund being exchanged into is greater than
the current sales charge of the Fund (in which case an initial
sales charge will be imposed at a rate equal to the difference).
Investors whose shares are outstanding on January 4, 1999 will be
able to exchange those Class A shares, and any shares acquired
through capital appreciation and the reinvestment of dividends and
capital gains distributions on those shares, into Class A shares
of the other funds without paying any sales charge. No contingent
deferred sales charge is imposed on Class B shares when they are
exchanged for Class B shares of certain other CitiFunds. This
exchange privilege may be changed or terminated at any time with
at least 60 days' notice, when notice is required by applicable
rules and regulations.
SERVICE PLANS. The Fund maintains separate Service Plans, which have
been adopted in accordance with Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act, for Class A and
Class B shares. Under the Class A Plans, the Fund may pay monthly fees at an
annual rate not to exceed 0.25% of the average daily net assets represented by
Class A shares of the Fund. Under the Class B Plans, the Fund may pay a
combined monthly distribution and service fee of up to 1.00% of the average
daily net assets represented by the Class B shares. These fees may be used to
make payments to the Distributor for distribution services and to Service
Agents and others as compensation for the sale of shares of the applicable
class of the Fund, for advertising, marketing or other promotional activity,
and for preparation, printing and distribution of prospectuses, statements of
additional information and reports for recipients other than regulators and
existing shareholders. The Fund also may make payments to the Distributor,
Service Agents and others for providing personal service or the maintenance of
shareholder accounts.
The amounts paid to each Service Agent and other recipient may vary
based upon certain factors, including, among other things, the levels of sales
of Fund shares and/or shareholder services provided by the Service Agent.
Service Agents and others may receive different compensation for sales of Class
A and Class B shares.
The Distributor provides to the Trustees quarterly a written report of
amounts expended pursuant to the Plans and the purposes for which the
expenditures were made.
During the period they are in effect, the Plans and related
Distribution Agreements obligate the Fund to pay fees to the Distributor,
Service Agents and others as compensation for their services, not as
reimbursement for specific expenses incurred. Thus, even if these entities'
expenses exceed the fees provided for under the Plans, the Fund will not be
<PAGE>
obligated to pay more than those fees and, if their expenses are less than the
fees paid to them, they will realize a profit. The Fund will pay the fees to
the Distributor, Service Agents and others until the Plans or Distribution
Agreements are terminated or not renewed. In that event, the Distributor's or
Service Agent's expenses in excess of fees received or accrued through the
termination date will be the Distributor's or Service Agent's sole
responsibility and not obligations of the Fund.

SUPPLEMENT DATED JANUARY 4, 1999
TO
STATEMENT OF ADDITIONAL INFORMATION DATED JANUARY 7, 1998 FOR
CITIFUNDSSM INTERNATIONAL GROWTH & INCOME PORTFOLIO
SALES CHARGES. Shares of the Fund are sold at net asset value, plus, in
the case of Class A shares, a front-end, or initial, sales charge that may be
reduced on purchases involving substantial amounts and that may be eliminated
in certain circumstances. A contingent deferred sales charge is imposed on
redemptions of certain Class B shares made within five years of purchase.
PERFORMANCE. Total rates of return for the Fund may be calculated on
investments at various sales charge levels or at net asset value. Any
performance data which is based on a reduced sales charge or net asset value
would be reduced if the maximum sales charge were taken into account.
DETERMINATION OF NET ASSET VALUE. Net asset value is calculated
separately for each class. Per share net asset value of the classes of the
Fund's shares can be expected to differ because the Class B shares bear higher
expenses than Class A shares.
LETTER OF INTENT. If an investor anticipates purchasing $25,000 or more
of Class A shares of the Fund alone or in combination with Class B shares of
the Fund or any of the classes of other CitiFunds or mutual fund managed or
advised by Citibank (all of such funds being referred to herein as CitiFunds)
within a 13-month period, the investor may obtain the shares at the same
reduced sales charge as though the total quantity were invested in one lump sum
by completing a letter of intent on the terms described below. Subject to
acceptance by CFBDS, Inc., the Fund's distributor, and the conditions mentioned
below, each purchase will be made at a public offering price applicable to a
single transaction of the dollar amount specified in the letter of intent.
o The shareholder or, if the shareholder is a customer of a Service
Agent, his or her Service Agent must inform CFBDS that the letter
of intent is in effect each time shares are purchased.
o The shareholder makes no commitment to purchase additional shares,
but if his or her purchases within 13 months plus the value of
shares credited toward completion of the letter of intent do not
total the sum specified, an increased sales charge will apply as
described below.
o A purchase not originally made pursuant to a letter of intent may
be included under a subsequent letter of intent executed within 90
days of the purchase if CFBDS is informed in writing of this
intent within the 90-day period.
<PAGE>
o The value of shares of the Fund presently held, at cost or maximum
offering price (whichever is higher), on the date of the first
purchase under the letter of intent, may be included as a credit
toward the completion of the letter, but the reduced sales charge
applicable to the amount covered by the letter is applied only to
new purchases.
o Instructions for issuance of shares in the name of a person other
than the person signing the letter of intent must be accompanied
by a written statement from the Transfer Agent or Service Agent
stating that the shares were paid for by the person signing the
letter.
o Neither income dividends nor capital gains distributions taken in
additional shares will apply toward the completion of the letter
of intent.
o The value of any shares redeemed or otherwise disposed of by the
purchaser prior to termination or completion of the letter of
intent are deducted from the total purchases made under the letter
of intent.
If the investment specified in the letter of intent is not completed
(either prior to or by the end of the 13-month period), the Transfer Agent will
redeem, within 20 days of the expiration of the letter of intent, an
appropriate number of the shares in order to realize the difference between the
reduced sales charge that would apply if the investment under the letter of
intent had been completed and the sales charge that would normally apply to the
number of shares actually purchased. By completing and signing the letter of
intent, the shareholder irrevocably grants a power of attorney to the Transfer
Agent to redeem any or all shares purchased under the letter of intent, with
full power of substitution.
RIGHT OF ACCUMULATION. A shareholder qualifies for cumulative quantity
discounts on the purchase of Class A shares when his or her new investment,
together with the current offering price value of all holdings of that
shareholder in the CitiFunds, reaches a discount level. For example, if a Fund
shareholder owns shares valued at $50,000 and purchases an additional $50,000
of Class A shares of the Fund, the sales charge for the additional $50,000
purchase would be at the rate of 3.00% (the rate applicable to single
transactions from $100,000 to less than $250,000). A shareholder must provide
the Transfer Agent with information to verify that the quantity sales charge
discount is applicable at the time the investment is made.
CONVERSION OF CLASS B SHARES. A shareholder's Class B shares will
automatically convert to Class A shares in the Fund approximately eight years
after the date of issuance, together with a pro rata portion of all Class B
shares representing dividends and other distributions paid in additional Class
B shares. The conversion will be effected at the relative net asset values per
share of the two classes on the first business day of the month in which the
eighth anniversary of the issuance of the Class B shares occurs. If a
<PAGE>
shareholder effects one or more exchanges among Class B shares of the CitiFunds
during the eight-year period, the holding periods for the shares so exchanged
will be counted toward the eight-year period. Because the per share net asset
value of the Class A shares may be higher than that of the Class B shares at
the time of conversion, a shareholder may receive fewer Class A shares than the
number of Class B shares converted, although the dollar value will be the same.
SERVICE FEES. The Fund pays fees for distribution and shareholder
servicing pursuant to a Service Plan adopted with respect to each class of
shares of the Fund in accordance with Rule 12b-1 under the Investment Company
Act of 1940, as amended. The Service Plan with respect to Class A shares
provides that the Fund may pay monthly fees at an annual rate not to exceed
0.25% of the average daily net assets represented by Class A shares of the
Fund. The Service Plan with respect to Class B shares provides that the Fund
may pay a combined monthly distribution and service fee of up to 1.00% of the
average daily net assets represented by the Class B shares.

FORM OF AMENDED AND RESTATED
DISTRIBUTION AGREEMENT
AGREEMENT, dated as of August 9, 1990 and amended and restated as of
_________ __, 19__, by and between CitiFunds International Trust (formerly,
Landmark International Funds), a Massachusetts business trust (the "Trust"),
and CFBDS, Inc., a Massachusetts corporation ("Distributor"). This Agreement
relates solely to Shares of Beneficial Interest designated "Class A."
WHEREAS, the Trust engages in business as an openend management investment
company and is registered as such under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as
amended (the "1940 Act");
WHEREAS, the Trust's shares of beneficial interest ("Shares") are divided
into separate series representing interests in separate funds of securities and
other assets;
WHEREAS, the Trust wishes to retain the services of a distributor for
Class A Shares of each of the Trust's series listed on Exhibit A hereto (the
"Funds") and has registered the Shares of the Funds under the Securities Act of
1933, as amended (the "1933 Act");
WHEREAS, the Trust has adopted an Amended and Restated Distribution Plan
pursuant to Rule 12b1 under the 1940 Act (the "Distribution Plan") and may
enter into related agreements providing for the distribution and servicing of
Shares of the Funds;
WHEREAS, Distributor has agreed to act as distributor of the Class A
Shares of the Funds for the period of this Agreement;
NOW, THEREFORE, it is hereby agreed between the parties hereto as follows:
1. Appointment of Distributor.
(a) The Trust hereby appoints Distributor its exclusive agent for the
distribution of Class A Shares of the Funds in jurisdictions wherein such
<PAGE>
Shares may be legally offered for sale; provided, however, that the Trust in
its absolute discretion may issue Shares of the Funds in connection with (i)
the payment or reinvestment of dividends or distributions; (ii) any merger or
consolidation of the Trust or of the Funds with any other investment company or
trust or any personal holding company, or the acquisition of the assets of any
such entity or another series of the Trust; or (iii) any offer of exchange
permitted by Section 11 of the 1940 Act.
(b) Distributor hereby accepts such appointment as exclusive agent for the
distribution of Class A Shares of the Funds and agrees that it will sell the
Shares as agent for the Trust at prices determined as hereinafter provided and
on the terms hereinafter set forth, all according to the then-current
prospectus and statement of additional information of each Fund (collectively,
the "Prospectus" and the "Statement of Additional Information"), applicable
laws, rules and regulations and the Declaration of Trust of the Trust.
Distributor agrees to use its best efforts to solicit orders for the sale of
Shares of the Funds, and agrees to transmit promptly to the Trust (or to the
transfer agent of the Funds, if so instructed in writing by the Trust) any
orders received by it for purchase or redemption of Shares.
(c) Distributor may sell Shares of the Funds to or through qualified
securities dealers, financial institutions or others. Distributor will require
each dealer or other such party to conform to the provisions of this Agreement,
the Prospectus, the Statement of Additional Information and applicable law; and
neither Distributor nor any such dealers or others shall withhold the placing
of purchase orders for Shares so as to make a profit thereby.
(d) Distributor shall order Shares of the Funds from the Trust only to the
extent that it shall have received unconditional purchase orders therefor.
Distributor will not make, or authorize any dealers or others to make: (i) any
short sales of Shares; or (ii) any sales of Shares to any Trustee or officer of
the Trust, any officer or director of Distributor or any corporation or
association furnishing investment advisory, managerial or supervisory services
to the Trust, or to any such corporation or association, unless such sales are
made in accordance with the Prospectus and the Statement of Additional
Information.
(e) Distributor is not authorized by the Trust to give any information or
make any representations regarding Shares of the Funds, except such information
or representations as are contained in the Prospectus, the Statement of
Additional Information or advertisements and sales literature prepared by or on
behalf of the Trust for Distributor's use.
<PAGE>
(f) The Trust agrees to execute any and all documents, to furnish any and
all information and otherwise to take all actions which may be reasonably
necessary in the discretion of the Trust's officers in connection with the
qualification of Shares of each Fund for sale in such states as Distributor and
the Trust agree.
(g) No Shares of any Fund shall be offered by either Distributor or the
Trust under this Agreement, and no orders for the purchase or sale of such
Shares hereunder shall be accepted by the Trust, if and so long as the
effectiveness of the Trust's then current registration statement as to Shares
of that Fund or any necessary amendments thereto shall be suspended under any
of the provisions of the 1933 Act, or if and so long as a current prospectus
for Shares of that Fund as required by Section 10 of the 1933 Act is not on
file with the Securities and Exchange Commission; provided, however, that
nothing contained in this paragraph (g) shall in any way restrict the Trust's
obligation to repurchase any Shares from any shareholder in accordance with the
provisions of the applicable Fund's Prospectus or charter documents.
(h) Notwithstanding any provision hereof, the Trust may terminate, suspend
or withdraw the offering of Shares of any Fund whenever, in its sole
discretion, it deems such action to be desirable.
2. Offering Price of Shares. All Fund Shares sold under this Agreement
shall be sold at the public offering price per Share in effect at the time of
the sale, as described in the Prospectus. The public offering price of the
Class A Shares of each Fund shall be the net asset value of such Shares plus
the amount of any applicable sales charge, as provided in the Prospectus. The
excess, if any, of the public offering price of the Shares over the net asset
value of the Shares, and any contingent deferred sales charge applicable to
Class A Shares of any Fund as set forth in the applicable Fund's Prospectus,
may be paid to, or retained by, the Distributor, securities dealers, financial
institutions (including banks) and others, as partial compensation for their
services in connection with the sale of Class A Shares. At no time shall the
Trust receive less than the full net asset value of the Shares of each Fund,
determined in the manner set forth in the Prospectus and the Statement of
Additional Information. Distributor also may receive such compensation under
the Trust's Distribution Plan for Class A Shares as may be authorized by the
Trustees of the Trust from time to time.
3. Furnishing of Information.
(a) The Trust shall furnish to Distributor copies of any information,
financial statements and other documents that Distributor may reasonably
request for use in connection with the sale of Shares of the Funds under this
<PAGE>
Agreement. The Trust shall also make available a sufficient number of copies of
the Funds' Prospectus and Statement of Additional Information for use by the
Distributor.
(b) The Trust agrees to advise Distributor immediately in writing:
(i) of any request by the Securities and Exchange Commission for
amendments to any registration statement concerning a Fund or to a
Prospectus or for additional information;
(ii) in the event of the issuance by the Securities and Exchange
Commission of any stop order suspending the effectiveness of any such
registration statement or Prospectus or the initiation of any proceeding
for that purpose;
(iii) of the happening of any event which makes untrue any statement
of a material fact made in any such registration statement or Prospectus
or which requires the making of a change in such registration statement or
Prospectus in order to make the statements therein not misleading; and
(iv) of all actions of the Securities and Exchange Commission with
respect to any amendments to any such registration statement or Prospectus
which may from time to time be filed with the Securities and Exchange
Commission.
4. Expenses.
(a) The Trust will pay or cause to be paid the following expenses:
organization costs of the Funds; compensation of Trustees who are not
"affiliated persons" of the Distributor; governmental fees; interest charges;
loan commitment fees; taxes; membership dues in industry associations allocable
to the Trust; fees and expenses of independent auditors, legal counsel and any
transfer agent, distributor, shareholder servicing agent, registrar or dividend
disbursing agent of the Trust; expenses of issuing and redeeming shares of
beneficial interest and servicing shareholder accounts; expenses of preparing,
typesetting, printing and mailing prospectuses, statements of additional
information, shareholder reports, notices, proxy statements and reports to
governmental officers and commissions and to existing shareholders of the
Funds; expenses connected with the execution, recording and settlement of
security transactions; insurance premiums; fees and expenses of the custodian
for all services to the Funds, including safekeeping of funds and securities
and maintaining required books and accounts; expenses of calculating the net
asset value of the Funds (including but not limited to the fees of independent
<PAGE>
pricing services); expenses of meetings of shareholders; expenses relating to
the issuance, registration and qualification of shares; and such non-recurring
or extraordinary expenses as may arise, including those relating to actions,
suits or proceedings to which the Trust may be a party and the legal obligation
which the Trust may have to indemnify its Trustees and officers with respect
thereto.
(b) Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement and except to the
extent such expenses are borne by the Trust pursuant to the Distribution Plan,
Distributor will pay or cause to be paid all expenses connected with its own
qualification as a dealer under state and federal laws and all other expenses
incurred by Distributor in connection with the sale of Shares of each Fund as
contemplated by this Agreement.
(c) Distributor shall prepare and deliver reports to the Trustees of the
Trust on a regular basis, at least quarterly, showing the expenditures with
respect to each Fund pursuant to the Distribution Plan and the purposes
therefor, as well as any supplemental reports that the Trustees of the Trust,
from time to time, may reasonably request.
5. Repurchase of Shares. Distributor as agent and for the account of the
Trust may repurchase Shares of the Funds offered for resale to it and redeem

bad faith, gross negligence or reckless disregard of obligations or duties
hereunder on the part of Distributor, the Trust agrees to indemnify
Distributor, its officers and directors, and any person which controls
Distributor within the meaning of the 1933 Act against any and all claims,
demands, liabilities and expenses that any such indemnified party may incur
under the 1933 Act, or common law or otherwise, arising out of or based upon
any alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the registration
statement for any Fund, any Prospectus or Statement of Additional Information,
or any advertisements or sales literature prepared by or on behalf of the Trust
for Distributor's use, or any omission to state a material fact therein, the
omission of which makes any statement contained therein misleading, unless such
statement or omission was made in reliance upon and in conformity with
information furnished to the Trust in connection therewith by or on behalf of
Distributor. Nothing herein contained shall require the Trust to take any
action contrary to any provision of its Declaration of Trust or any applicable
statute or regulation.
<PAGE>
7. Indemnification by Distributor. Distributor agrees to indemnify the
Trust, its officers and Trustees and any person which controls the Trust within
the meaning of the 1933 Act against any and all claims, demands, liabilities
and expenses that any such indemnified party may incur under the 1933 Act, or
common law or otherwise, arising out of or based upon (i) any alleged untrue
statement of a material fact contained in the registration statement for any
Fund, any Prospectus or Statement of Additional Information, or any
advertisements or sales literature prepared by or on behalf of the Trust for
Distributor's use, or any omission to state a material fact therein, the
omission of which makes any statement contained therein misleading, if such
statement or omission was made in reliance upon and in conformity with
information furnished to the Trust in connection therewith by or on behalf of
Distributor; and (ii) any act or deed of Distributor or its sales
representatives that has not been authorized by the Trust in any Prospectus or

interested persons (as defined in the 1940 Act) of any such party and who have
no direct or indirect financial interest in this Agreement or in the operation
of the Distribution Plan or in any agreement related thereto ("Independent
Trustees"), cast in person at a meeting called for the purpose of voting on
such approval.
(b) This Agreement may be terminated as to any Fund on not less than
thirty days' nor more than sixty days' written notice to the other party.

Trustees nor such execution and delivery by such officer shall be deemed to
have been made by any of them individually or to impose any liability on any of

WHEREAS, the Trust engages in business as an openend management investment
company and is registered as such under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as
amended (the "1940 Act");
WHEREAS, the Trust's shares of beneficial interest ("Shares") are divided
into separate series representing interests in separate funds of securities and
other assets;
WHEREAS, the Trust wishes to retain the services of a distributor for

1933, as amended (the "1933 Act");
WHEREAS, the Trust has adopted a Distribution Plan pursuant to Rule 12b1
under the 1940 Act (the "Distribution Plan") and may enter into related
agreements providing for the distribution and servicing of Shares of the Funds;
WHEREAS, Distributor has agreed to act as distributor of the Class B
Shares of the Funds for the period of this Agreement;
NOW, THEREFORE, it is hereby agreed between the parties hereto as follows:
1. Appointment of Distributor.
(a) The Trust hereby appoints Distributor its exclusive agent for the
distribution of Class B Shares of the Funds in jurisdictions wherein such
Shares may be legally offered for sale; provided, however, that the Trust in
its absolute discretion may issue Shares of the Funds in connection with (i)
the payment or reinvestment of dividends or distributions; (ii) any merger or
consolidation of the Trust or of the Funds with any other investment company or
trust or any personal holding company, or the acquisition of the assets of any
<PAGE>
such entity or another series of the Trust; or (iii) any offer of exchange
permitted by Section 11 of the 1940 Act.
(b) Distributor hereby accepts such appointment as exclusive agent for the
distribution of Class B Shares of the Funds and agrees that it will sell the
Shares as agent for the Trust at prices determined as hereinafter provided and
on the terms hereinafter set forth, all according to the then-current
prospectus and statement of additional information of each Fund (collectively,
the "Prospectus" and the "Statement of Additional Information"), applicable
laws, rules and regulations and the Declaration of Trust of the Trust.
Distributor agrees to use its best efforts to solicit orders for the sale of
Shares of the Funds, and agrees to transmit promptly to the Trust (or to the
transfer agent of the Funds, if so instructed in writing by the Trust) any
orders received by it for purchase or redemption of Shares.
(c) Distributor may sell Shares of the Funds to or through qualified
securities dealers, financial institutions or others. Distributor will require
each dealer or other such party to conform to the provisions of this Agreement,
the Prospectus, the Statement of Additional Information and applicable law; and
neither Distributor nor any such dealers or others shall withhold the placing
of purchase orders for Shares so as to make a profit thereby.
(d) Distributor shall order Shares of the Funds from the Trust only to the
extent that it shall have received unconditional purchase orders therefor.
Distributor will not make, or authorize any dealers or others to make: (i) any
short sales of Shares; or (ii) any sales of Shares to any Trustee or officer of
the Trust, any officer or director of Distributor or any corporation or
association furnishing investment advisory, managerial or supervisory services
to the Trust, or to any such corporation or association, unless such sales are
made in accordance with the Prospectus and the Statement of Additional
Information.
(e) Distributor is not authorized by the Trust to give any information or
make any representations regarding Shares of the Funds, except such information
or representations as are contained in the Prospectus, the Statement of
Additional Information or advertisements and sales literature prepared by or on
behalf of the Trust for Distributor's use.
(f) The Trust agrees to execute any and all documents, to furnish any and
all information and otherwise to take all actions which may be reasonably
necessary in the discretion of the Trust's officers in connection with the
qualification of Shares of each Fund for sale in such states as Distributor and
the Trust agree.
<PAGE>
(g) No Shares of any Fund shall be offered by either Distributor or the
Trust under this Agreement, and no orders for the purchase or sale of such
Shares hereunder shall be accepted by the Trust, if and so long as the
effectiveness of the Trust's then current registration statement as to Shares
of that Fund or any necessary amendments thereto shall be suspended under any
of the provisions of the 1933 Act, or if and so long as a current prospectus
for Shares of that Fund as required by Section 10 of the 1933 Act is not on
file with the Securities and Exchange Commission; provided, however, that
nothing contained in this paragraph (g) shall in any way restrict the Trust's
obligation to repurchase any Shares from any shareholder in accordance with the
provisions of the applicable Fund's Prospectus or charter documents.
(h) Notwithstanding any provision hereof, the Trust may terminate, suspend
or withdraw the offering of Shares of any Fund whenever, in its sole
discretion, it deems such action to be desirable.
2. Offering Price of Shares. All Fund Shares sold under this Agreement
shall be sold at the public offering price per Share in effect at the time of
the sale, as described in the Prospectus. The public offering price of the
Class B Shares of each Fund shall be the net asset value of such Shares, as
provided in the Prospectus. Any contingent deferred sales charge applicable to
Class B Shares of any Fund as set forth in the applicable Fund's Prospectus,
may be paid to, or retained by, the Distributor, securities dealers, financial
institutions (including banks) and others, as partial compensation for their
services in connection with the sale of Class B Shares. At no time shall the
Trust receive less than the full net asset value of the Shares of each Fund,
determined in the manner set forth in the Prospectus and the Statement of
Additional Information. Distributor also may receive such compensation under
the Trust's Distribution Plan for Class B Shares as may be authorized by the
Trustees of the Trust from time to time.
3. Furnishing of Information.
(a) The Trust shall furnish to Distributor copies of any information,
financial statements and other documents that Distributor may reasonably
request for use in connection with the sale of Shares of the Funds under this
Agreement. The Trust shall also make available a sufficient number of copies of
the Funds' Prospectus and Statement of Additional Information for use by the
Distributor.
(b) The Trust agrees to advise Distributor immediately in writing:
<PAGE>
(i) of any request by the Securities and Exchange Commission for
amendments to any registration statement concerning a Fund or to a
Prospectus or for additional information;
(ii) in the event of the issuance by the Securities and Exchange
Commission of any stop order suspending the effectiveness of any such
registration statement or Prospectus or the initiation of any proceeding
for that purpose;
(iii) of the happening of any event which makes untrue any statement
of a material fact made in any such registration statement or Prospectus
or which requires the making of a change in such registration statement or
Prospectus in order to make the statements therein not misleading; and
(iv) of all actions of the Securities and Exchange Commission with
respect to any amendments to any such registration statement or Prospectus
which may from time to time be filed with the Securities and Exchange
Commission.
4. Expenses.
(a) The Trust will pay or cause to be paid the following expenses:

extent such expenses are borne by the Trust pursuant to the Distribution Plan,
Distributor will pay or cause to be paid all expenses connected with its own
qualification as a dealer under state and federal laws and all other expenses
incurred by Distributor in connection with the sale of Shares of each Fund as
contemplated by this Agreement.
(c) Distributor shall prepare and deliver reports to the Trustees of the
Trust on a regular basis, at least quarterly, showing the expenditures with
respect to each Fund pursuant to the Distribution Plan and the purposes
therefor, as well as any supplemental reports that the Trustees of the Trust,

action contrary to any provision of its Declaration of Trust or any applicable
statute or regulation.

statement or omission was made in reliance upon and in conformity with
information furnished to the Trust in connection therewith by or on behalf of
Distributor; and (ii) any act or deed of Distributor or its sales
representatives that has not been authorized by the Trust in any Prospectus or

Massachusetts as to the existence of the Trust;

effective as of __________ __, 199_, of CitiFunds International Trust, a
Massachusetts business trust (the "Trust"), with respect to shares of
beneficial interest of its series CitiFunds International Growth Portfolio and
any other series of the Trust adopting this plan (the "Series"). This Plan
relates solely to shares of beneficial interest of each Series which are
designated "Class A" ("Shares").
WHEREAS, the Trust engages in business as an openend management investment
company and is registered as such under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as
amended (the "1940 Act");
WHEREAS, the Trust's shares of beneficial interest are divided into
separate series representing interests in separate funds of securities and

12b-1 under the 1940 Act, and wishes to adopt this Plan as a plan of

not interested persons of the Trust (as defined in the 1940 Act) and who have
no direct or indirect financial interest in the operation of this Plan or in
any agreement relating hereto (the "NonInterested Trustees"), having
determined, in the exercise of reasonable business judgment and in light of
their fiduciary duties under state law and under Section 36(a) and (b) of the
1940 Act, that there is a reasonable likelihood that this Plan will benefit the
Trust and the shareholders of the Series, have approved this Plan by votes cast
at a meeting called for the purpose of voting hereon and on any agreements
related hereto;
WHEREAS, an initial sales charge may be paid by investors who purchase
Shares, and CFBDS, Inc. (the "Distributor"), broker-dealers, banks and other
financial intermediaries may receive such sales charge as partial compensation
for their services in connection with the sale of Shares;
WHEREAS, each Series or the Distributor may impose certain deferred sales
charges in connection with the repurchase of Shares by such Series, and the
Series may pay to the Distributor, dealers and others, or the Series may permit
<PAGE>
such persons to retain, as the case may be, all or any portion of such deferred
sales charges;
NOW, THEREFORE, the Trust hereby adopts this Plan as a plan of
distribution in accordance with Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act, with the terms
of the Plan being as follows:
1. Distribution and Servicing Activities. Subject to the supervision of
the Trustees of the Trust, the Trust may:
(a) engage, directly or indirectly, in any activities primarily
intended to result in the sale of Shares of the Series, which activities
may include, but are not limited to (i) payments to the Trust's
Distributor for distribution services, (ii) payments to securities
dealers, financial institutions (which may include banks) and others in
respect of the sale of Shares of the Series, (iii) payments for
advertising, marketing or other promotional activity, and (iv) payments
for preparation, printing, and distribution of prospectuses and statements
of additional information and reports of the Trust for recipients other
than regulators and existing shareholders of the Trust; and
(b) make payments, directly or indirectly, to the Trust's
Distributor, securities dealers, financial institutions (which may include
banks) and others for providing personal service and/or the maintenance of
shareholder accounts.
The Trust is authorized to engage in the activities listed above either
directly or through other persons with which the Trust has entered into
agreements related to this Plan.
2. Sales Charges. It is understood that, under certain circumstances, an
initial sales charge may be paid by investors who purchase Shares of each
Series, and the Series may pay to the Distributor, securities dealers,
financial institutions (including banks) and others, or the Series may permit
such persons to retain, as the case may be, such sales charge as partial
compensation for their services in connection with the sale of Shares. It is
also understood that, under certain circumstances, each Series or the
Distributor may impose certain deferred sales charges in connection with the
repurchase of Shares of such Series, and the Series may pay to the Distributor,
securities dealers, financial institutions (including banks) and others, or the
Series may permit such persons to retain, as the case may be, all or any
portion of such deferred sales charges.
<PAGE>
3. Expenditures. In addition to the sales charges discussed in Section 2
above, as consideration for services performed and expenses incurred in the
performance of its obligations under the Distribution Agreement with the
Distributor, except in connection with print or electronic media advertising,
the Trust shall pay the Distributor from the assets of each Series a
distribution fee periodically at an annual rate not to exceed 0.10% of the
average daily net assets represented by Shares for its then-current fiscal
year. The Trust may also make payments directly to securities dealers,
financial institutions (including banks) and others in respect of the sale of
Shares of each Series and for providing personal service and/or the maintenance
of shareholder accounts, provided that the aggregate amount of such payments
made pursuant to this Plan, when added to the distribution fee paid pursuant to
the immediately preceding sentence, shall not exceed 0.10% of the average daily
net assets represented by Shares of each Series for its then-current fiscal
year. The Trust shall pay the Distributor an additional fee from the assets of
each Series at an annual rate not to exceed 0.05% of the average daily assets
represented by Shares of each Series for its then-current fiscal year in
anticipation of, or as reimbursement for, expenses incurred by the Distributor
in connection with print or electronic media advertising in connection with the
sale of Shares of such Series.
As partial consideration for the personal services and/or account
maintenance services performed by each broker-dealer, bank or other financial
intermediary in the performance of its obligations under its dealer or agency
agreement with the Distributor, each Series (excluding CitiFunds International
Growth Portfolio) may pay each broker-dealer, bank or other financial
intermediary a service fee periodically at a rate not to exceed 0.25% per annum
of the portion of the average daily net assets of such Series that is
represented by Shares that are owned by investors for whom such broker-dealer,
bank or other financial intermediary is the holder or intermediary of record
("Service Fees"). That portion of each such Series' average daily net assets on
which the fees payable under this paragraph are calculated may be subject to
certain minimum amount requirements as may be determined and additional or
different dealer qualification standards that may be established from time to
time by the Series or the Distributor. The Distributor shall be entitled to be
paid any fees payable under this paragraph with respect to Shares for which no
intermediary of record exists or qualification standards have not been met as
partial consideration for personal services and/or account maintenance services
provided by the Distributor with respect to the Shares. The Service Fees
payable pursuant to this paragraph may from time to time be paid by each Series
either to the Distributor and the Distributor will then pay these fees on
behalf of such Series, or directly to the applicable broker-dealer, bank or
other financial intermediary.
<PAGE>
4. Trust's Expenses. The Trust shall pay all expenses of its operations,
including the following, and such expenses shall not constitute expenditures
under this Plan: organization costs of each Series; compensation of Trustees;
governmental fees; interest charges; loan commitment fees; taxes; membership
dues in industry associations allocable to the Trust; fees and expenses of

Plan shall continue in effect until November 13, 1999 and shall continue in
effect for successive periods of one year, but only so long as each such
continuance is specifically approved by votes of a majority of both the

Exhibit 18
CITIFUNDS INTERNATIONAL TRUST
FORM OF MULTIPLE CLASS PLAN
MULTIPLE CLASS PLAN, dated as of November 13, 1998, of CitiFunds
International Trust, a Massachusetts business trust (the "Trust"), with respect
to each of its series whether now existing or hereafter established
(collectively, the "Funds").
W I T N E S S E T H:
WHEREAS, the Trust is engaged in business as an open-end management
investment company and is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940,
as amended (collectively with the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder,
the "1940 Act"); and
WHEREAS, the shares of beneficial interest ($0.00001 per share par value)
of the Trust (the "Shares") are divided into separate series and may be divided
into one or more separate classes;
WHEREAS, the Trust desires to adopt this Multiple Class Plan (the "Plan")
on behalf of the Funds as a plan pursuant to Rule 18f-3 in order that the Funds
may issue multiple classes of Shares;
WHEREAS, the Board of Trustees of the Trust, in considering whether the
Trust should adopt and implement this Plan, has evaluated such information and
considered such pertinent factors as it deemed necessary to an informed
evaluation of this Plan and determination as to whether this Plan should be
adopted and implemented, and has determined that the adoption and
implementation of this Plan, including the expense allocation contemplated
herein, are in the best interests of each class of Shares individually, as well
as the best interests of the Funds;
NOW THEREFORE, the Trust hereby adopts this Plan pursuant to Rule 18f-3
under the 1940 Act, on the following terms and conditions:
1. The Funds may issue Shares in one or more classes (each, a "Class" and
collectively, the "Classes"). Shares so issued will have the rights and
preferences set forth in the Establishment and Designation of Classes and the
Trust's then current registration statement relating to the Funds.
<PAGE>
2. Shares issued in Classes will be issued subject to and in accordance
with the terms of Rule 18f-3 under the 1940 Act, including, without limitation:
(a) Each Class shall have a different arrangement for shareholder
services or the distribution of securities or both, and shall pay all of
the expenses of that arrangement;
(b) Each Class may pay a different share of other expenses, not
including advisory or custodial fees or other expenses related to the
management of the Trust's assets, if these expenses are actually incurred
in a different amount by that Class, or if the Class receives services of
a different kind or to a different degree than other Classes;
(c) Each Class shall have exclusive voting rights on any matter
submitted to shareholders that relates solely to its arrangement;
(d) Each Class shall have separate voting rights on any matter
submitted to shareholders in which the interests of one Class differ from
the interests of any other Class; and
(e) Except as otherwise permitted under Rule 18f-3 under the 1940
Act, each Class shall have the same rights and obligations as each other
Class.
3. Nothing herein contained shall be deemed to require the Trust to take
any action contrary to its Declaration of Trust or By-Laws or any applicable
statutory or regulatory requirement to which it is subject or by which it is
bound, or to relieve or deprive the Board of Trustees of the responsibility for
and control of the conduct of the affairs of the Trust.
4. This Plan shall become effective as to the Funds upon the later to
occur of (a) approval by a vote of the Board of Trustees and vote of a majority
of the Trustees who are not "interested persons" of the Trust (the "Qualified
Trustees"), and (b) __________.
5. This Plan shall continue in effect indefinitely unless terminated by a
vote of the Board of Trustees of the Trust. This Plan may be terminated at any
time with respect to the Funds by a vote of the Board of Trustees of the Trust.
This Plan supercedes any and all other multiple class plans heretofore approved
by the Board of Trustees of the Trust with respect to the Funds.
<PAGE>
6. This Plan may be amended at any time by the Board of Trustees of the
Trust, provided that any material amendment of this Plan shall be effective
only upon approval by a vote of the Board of Trustees of the Trust and a
majority of the Qualified Trustees.
7. This Plan shall be construed in accordance with the laws of the
Commonwealth of Massachusetts and the applicable provisions of the 1940 Act.
8. If any provision of this Plan shall be held or made invalid by a court
decision, statute, rule or otherwise, the remainder of the Plan shall not be
affected thereby.
