The purpose of the foregoing table is to assist investors in
understanding the various costs and expenses borne by the Fund, and therefore
indirectly by investors, the payment of which will reduce investors' return
on an annual basis. Unless The Dreyfus Corporation gives the Fund's investors
at least 90 days' notice to the contrary, The Dreyfus Corporation, and not
the Fund, will be liable for Fund expenses (exclusive of taxes, brokerage,
interest on borrowings and (with the prior written consent of the necessary
state securities commissions) extraordinary expenses) other than the
following expenses, which will be borne by the Fund: (i) the management fee
payable by the Fund monthly at the annual rate of .20 of 1% of the Fund's
average daily net assets and (ii) as to Class B shares only, payments made
pursuant to the Fund's Service Plan at the annual rate of .25 of 1% of the
value of the average daily net assets of Class B. Institutions and certain
Service Agents (as defined below) effecting transactions in Fund shares for
the accounts of their clients may charge their clients direct fees in
connection with such transactions; such fees are not reflected in the
foregoing table. See "Management of the Fund," "How to Buy Fund Shares,"
"Service Plan" and "Shareholder Services Plan."

</TABLE>
YIELD INFORMATION
From time to time, the Fund advertises its yield and effective
yield. Both yield figures are based on historical earnings and are not
intended to indicate future performance. It can be expected that these yields
will fluctuate substantially. The yield of the Fund refers to the income
generated by an investment in the Fund over a seven-day period (which period
will be stated in the advertisement). This income is then annualized. That
is, the amount of income generated by the investment during that week is
assumed to be generated each week over a 52-week period and is shown as a
percentage of the investment. The effective yield is calculated similarly,
but, when annualized, the income earned by an investment in the Fund is
assumed to be reinvested. The effective yield will be slightly higher than
the yield because of the compounding effect of this assumed reinvestment. The
Fund's yield and effective yield may reflect absorbed expenses pursuant to
any undertaking that may be in effect. See "Management of the Fund." Both
yield figures also take into account any applicable distribution and service
fees. As a result, at any given time, the performance of Class B should be
expected to be lower than that of Class A. See "Service Plan."
Tax equivalent yield is calculated by determining the pre-tax yield
which, after being taxed at a stated rate, would be equivalent to a stated
yield or effective yield calculated as described above.
Yield information is useful in reviewing the Fund's performance,
but because yields will fluctuate, under certain conditions such information
may not provide a basis for comparison with domestic bank deposits,
(Page 3)
other investments which pay a fixed yield for a stated period of time, or other
investment companies which may use a different method of computing yield.
Comparative performance information may be used from time to time
in advertising or marketing the Fund's shares, including data from Lipper
Analytical Services, Inc., Bank Rate Monitortrademark, IBC/Donoghue's Money
Fund Report, Morningstar, Inc. and other industry publications.
DESCRIPTION OF THE FUND
GENERAL -- By this Prospectus, two classes of shares of the Fund are being
offered -- Class A shares and Class B shares (each such class being referred
to as a "Class"). The Classes are identical, except that Class B shares are
subject to an annual distribution and service fee at the rate of .25% of the
value of the average daily net assets of Class B. The fee is payable for
advertising, marketing and distributing the Fund's Class B shares and for
ongoing personal services relating to Class B shareholder accounts and
services related to the maintenance of such shareholder accounts pursuant to
a Service Plan adopted in accordance with Rule 12b-1 under the Investment
Company Act of 1940. See "Service Plan." The distribution and service fee
paid by Class B will cause such Class to have a higher expense ratio and to
pay lower dividends than Class A.
WHEN USED IN THIS PROSPECTUS AND THE STATEMENT OF ADDITIONAL
INFORMATION, THE TERMS "INVESTOR" AND "SHAREHOLDER" REFER TO THE INSTITUTION
PURCHASING FUND SHARES AND DO NOT REFER TO ANY INDIVIDUAL OR ENTITY FOR WHOSE
ACCOUNT THE INSTITUTION MAY PURCHASE FUND SHARES. Such institutions have
agreed to transmit copies of this Prospectus and all relevant Fund materials,
including proxy materials, to each individual or entity for whose account the
institution purchases Fund shares, to the extent required by law.
INVESTMENT OBJECTIVE -- The Fund's goal is to provide investors with as high
a level of current income exempt from Federal income tax as is consistent
with the preservation of capital and the maintenance of liquidity. To
accomplish this goal, the Fund invests principally in Municipal Obligations
(as described below). The Fund may invest without limitation in Municipal
Obligations the interest from which may give rise to a preference item for
purposes of the alternative minimum tax. See "Management Policies" below. The
Fund's investment objective cannot be changed without approval by the holders
of a majority (as defined in the Investment Company Act of 1940) of the
Fund's outstanding voting shares. There can be no assurance that the Fund's
investment objective will be achieved. Securities in which the Fund invests
may not earn as high a level of current income as long-term or lower quality
securities which generally have less liquidity, greater market risk and more
fluctuation in market value.
MUNICIPAL OBLIGATIONS -- Municipal Obligations are debt obligations issued by
states, territories and possessions of the United States and the District of
Columbia and their political subdivisions, agencies and instrumentalities, or
multistate agencies or authorities, the interest from which is, in the
opinion of bond counsel to the issuer, exempt from Federal income tax.
Municipal Obligations generally include debt obligations issued to obtain
funds for various public purposes as well as certain industrial development
bonds issued by or on behalf of public authorities. Municipal Obligations are
classified as general obligation bonds, revenue bonds and notes. General
obligation bonds are secured by the issuer's pledge of its faith, credit and
taxing power for the payment of principal and interest. Revenue bonds are
payable from the revenue derived from a particular facility or class of
facilities or, in some cases, from the proceeds of a special excise or other
specific revenue source, but not from the general taxing power. Tax exempt
industrial development bonds, in most cases, are revenue bonds that generally
do not carry the pledge of the credit of the issuing municipality, but
generally are guaranteed by the corporate entity on whose behalf they are
issued. Notes are short-term instruments which are obligations of the issuing
municipalities or agencies and are sold in anticipation of a bond sale,
collection of taxes or receipt of other revenues. Municipal Obligations
include municipal lease/purchase agreements which are similar to installment
purchase contracts for property or equipment issued by municipalities.
Municipal Obligations bear fixed, floating or variable rates of interest.
MANAGEMENT POLICIES -- It is a fundamental policy of the Fund that it will
invest at least 80% of the value of its net assets (except when maintaining a
temporary defensive position) in Municipal Obligations.
(Page 4)
The Fund seeks to maintain a net asset value of $1.00 per share for
purchases and redemptions. To do so, the Fund uses the amortized cost method
of valuing its securities pursuant to Rule 2a-7 under the Investment Company
Act of 1940, certain requirements of which are summarized as follows. In
accordance with Rule 2a-7, the Fund will maintain a dollar-weighted average
portfolio maturity of 90 days or less, purchase only instruments having
remaining maturities of 13 months or less and invest only in U.S. dollar
denominated securities determined in accordance with procedures established
by the Board of Trustees to present minimal credit risks and which are rated
in one of the two highest rating categories for debt obligations by at least
two nationally recognized statistical rating organizations (or one rating
organization if the instrument was rated only by one such organization) or,
if unrated, are of comparable quality as determined in accordance with
procedures established by the Board of Trustees. The nationally recognized
statistical rating organizations currently rating instruments of the type the
Fund may purchase are Moody's Investors Service, Inc. ("Moody's"), Standard &
Poor's Corporation ("S&P") and Fitch Investors Service, Inc. ("Fitch") and
their rating criteria are described in the Appendix to the Fund's Statement
of Additional Information. For further information regarding the amortized
cost method of valuing securities, see "Determination of Net Asset Value" in
the Fund's Statement of Additional Information. There can be no assurance
that the Fund will be able to maintain a stable net asset value of $1.00 per
share.
The Fund may invest more than 25% of the value of its total assets
in Municipal Obligations which are related in such a way that an economic,
business or political development or change affecting one such security also
would affect the other securities; for example, securities the interest upon
which is paid from revenues of similar types of projects, or securities whose
issuers are located in the same state. As a result, the Fund may be subject
to greater risk as compared to a fund that does not follow this practice.
From time to time, the Fund may invest more than 25% of the value
of its total assets in industrial development bonds which, although issued by
industrial development authorities, may be backed only by the assets and
revenues of the non-governmental users. Interest on Municipal Obligations
(including certain industrial development bonds) which are specified private
activity bonds, as defined in the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended
(the "Code"), issued after August 7, 1986, while exempt from Federal income
tax, is a preference item for the purpose of the alternative minimum tax.
Where a regulated investment company receives such interest, a proportionate
share of any exempt-interest dividend paid by the investment company may be
treated as such a preference item to shareholders. The Fund may invest
without limitation in such Municipal Obligations if The Dreyfus Corporation
determines that their purchase is consistent with the Fund's investment
objective.
The Fund may purchase floating and variable rate demand notes and
bonds, which are tax exempt obligations ordinarily having stated maturities
in excess of 13 months, but which permit the holder to demand payment of
principal at any time, or at specified intervals not exceeding 13 months, in
each case upon not more than 30 days' notice. Variable rate demand notes
include master demand notes which are obligations that permit the Fund to
invest fluctuating amounts, at varying rates of interest, pursuant to direct
arrangements between the Fund, as lender, and the borrower. These obligations
permit daily changes in the amount borrowed. Frequently, such obligations are
secured by letters of credit or other credit support arrangements provided by
banks. Use of letters of credit or other credit support arrangements will not
adversely affect the tax exempt status of these obligations. Because these
obligations are direct lending arrangements between the lender and borrower,
it is not contemplated that such instruments generally will be traded, and
there generally is no secondary market for these obligations, although they
are redeemable at face value, plus accrued interest. Accordingly, where these
obligations are not secured by letters of credit or other credit support
arrangements, the Fund's right to redeem is dependent on the ability of the
borrower to pay principal and interest on demand. Each obligation purchased
by the Fund will meet the quality criteria established for the purchase of
Municipal Obligations. The Dreyfus Corporation, on behalf of the Fund, will
consider on an ongoing basis the creditworthiness of the issuers of the
floating and variable rate demand obligations in the Fund's portfolio.
(Page 5)
The Fund may purchase from financial institutions participation
interests in Municipal Obligations (such as industrial development bonds and
municipal lease/purchase agreements). A participation interest gives the Fund
an undivided interest in the Municipal Obligation in the proportion that the
Fund's participation interest bears to the total principal amount of the
Municipal Obligation. These instruments may have fixed, floating or variable
rates of interest, with remaining maturities of 13 months or less. If the
participation interest is unrated, or has been given a rating below that
which otherwise is permissible for purchase by the Fund, the participation
interest will be backed by an irrevocable letter of credit or guarantee of a
bank that the Board of Trustees has determined meets the prescribed quality
standards for banks set forth below, or the payment obligation otherwise will
be collateralized by U.S. Government securities. For certain participation
interests, the Fund will have the right to demand payment, on not more than
seven days' notice, for all or any part of the Fund's participation interest
in the Municipal Obligation, plus accrued interest. As to these instruments,
the Fund intends to exercise its right to demand payment only upon a default
under the terms of the Municipal Obligation, as needed to provide liquidity
to meet redemptions, or to maintain or improve the quality of its investment
portfolio.
The Fund may acquire "stand-by commitments" with respect to
Municipal Obligations held in its portfolio. Under a stand-by commitment, the
Fund obligates a broker, dealer or bank to repurchase, at the Fund's option,
specified securities at a specified price and, in this respect, stand-by
commitments are comparable to put options. The exercise of a stand-by
commitment, therefore, is subject to the ability of the seller to make
payment on demand. The Fund will acquire stand-by commitments solely to
facilitate portfolio liquidity and does not intend to exercise its rights
thereunder for trading purposes. The Fund may pay for stand-by commitments if
such action is deemed necessary, thus increasing to a degree the cost of the
underlying Municipal Obligation and similarly decreasing such security's
yield to investors. Gains realized in connection with stand-by commitments
will be taxable.
The Fund may invest up to 10% of the value of its net assets in
securities as to which a liquid trading market does not exist, provided such
investments are consistent with the Fund's investment objective. Such
securities may include securities that are not readily marketable, such as
certain securities that are subject to legal or contractual restrictions on
resale, and repurchase agreements providing for settlement in more than seven
days after notice. As to these securities, the Fund is subject to a risk that
should the Fund desire to sell them when a ready buyer is not available at a
price that the Fund deems representative of their value, the value of the
Fund's net assets could be adversely affected.
From time to time, on a temporary basis other than for temporary
defensive purposes (but not to exceed 20% of the value of the Fund's net
assets) or for temporary defensive purposes, the Fund may invest in taxable
short-term investments ("Taxable Investments") consisting of: notes of
issuers having, at the time of purchase, a quality rating within the two
highest grades of Moody's, S&P or Fitch; obligations of the U.S. Government,
its agencies or instrumentalities; commercial paper rated not lower than P-l
by Moody's, A-1 by S&P or F-1 by Fitch; certificates of deposit of U.S.
domestic banks, including foreign branches of domestic banks, with assets of
one billion dollars or more; time deposits; bankers' acceptances and other
short-term bank obligations; and repurchase agreements in respect of any of
the foregoing. Dividends paid by the Fund that are attributable to income
earned by the Fund from Taxable Investments will be taxable to investors. See
"Dividends, Distributions and Taxes." Except for temporary defensive
purposes, at no time will more than 20% of the value of the Fund's net assets
be invested in Taxable Investments. If the Fund purchases Taxable
Investments, it will value them using the amortized cost method and comply
with the provisions of Rule 2a-7 relating to purchases of taxable
instruments. Under normal market conditions, the Fund anticipates that not
more than 5% of the value of its total assets will be invested in any one
category of Taxable Investments. Taxable Investments are more fully described
in the Statement of Additional Information, to which reference hereby is
made.
CERTAIN FUNDAMENTAL POLICIES -- The Fund may (i) borrow money from banks, but
only for temporary or emergency (not leveraging) purposes, in an amount up to
15% of the value of the Fund's total assets (including the amount bor-
(Page 6)
rowed) valued at the lesser of cost or market, less liabilities (not including
the amount borrowed) at the time the borrowing is made. While borrowings exceed
5% of the Fund's total assets, the Fund will not make any additional
investments; (ii) pledge, hypothecate, mortgage or otherwise encumber its
assets, but only to secure borrowings for temporary or emergency purposes;
(iii) invest up to 5% of the value of its total assets in the obligations of
any issuer, except that up to 25% of the value of the Fund's total assets may
be invested, and obligations issued or guaranteed by the U.S. Government, its
agencies or instrumentalities may be purchased, without regard to any such
limitation; and (iv) invest up to 25% of its total assets in the securities
of issuers in any industry, provided that there is no such limitation on
investments in Municipal Obligations and, for temporary defensive purposes,
obligations issued or guaranteed by the U.S. Government, its agencies or
instrumentalities. This paragraph describes fundamental policies that cannot
be changed without approval by the holders of a majority (as defined in the
Investment Company Act of 1940) of the Fund's outstanding voting shares. See
Investment Objectives and Management Policies -- Investment Restrictions"in
the Statement of Additional Information.
CERTAIN ADDITIONAL NON-FUNDAMENTAL POLICY -- The Fund may invest up to 10% of
its net assets in repurchase agreements providing for settlements in more
than seven days after notice and in other illiquid securities (which
securities could include participation interests (including municipal lease/pu
rchase agreements) that are not subject to the demand feature described above
and floating and variable rate demand obligations as to which the Fund cannot
exercise the related demand feature described above and as to which there is
no secondary market). See "Investment Objective and Management
Policies--Investment Restrictions" in the Statement of Additional
Information.
INVESTMENT CONSIDERATIONS -- Even though interest-bearing securities are
investments which promise a stable stream of income, the prices of such
securities are inversely affected by changes in interest rates and,
therefore, are subject to the risk of market price fluctuations. The values
of fixed-income securities also may be affected by changes in the credit
rating or financial condition of the issuing entities.
New issues of Municipal Obligations usually are offered on a
when-issued basis, which means that delivery and payment for such Municipal
Obligations ordinarily take place within 45 days after the date of the
commitment to purchase. The payment obligation and the interest rate that
will be received on the Municipal Obligations are fixed at the time the Fund
enters into the commitment. The Fund will make commitments to purchase such
Municipal Obligations only with the intention of actually acquiring the securi
ties, but the Fund may sell these securities before the settlement date if it
is deemed advisable, although any gain realized on such sale would be
taxable. The Fund will not accrue income in respect of a when-issued security
prior to its stated delivery date. No additional when-issued commitments will
be made if more than 20% of the value of the Fund's net assets would be so
committed.
Municipal Obligations purchased on a when-issued basis and the
securities held in the Fund's portfolio are subject to changes in value (both
generally changing in the same way, i.e., appreciating when interest rates
decline and depreciating when interest rates rise) based upon the public's
perception of the creditworthiness of the issuer and changes, real or
anticipated, in the level of interest rates. Municipal Obligations purchased
on a when-issued basis may expose the Fund to risk because they may experience
such fluctuations prior to their actual delivery. Purchasing Municipal
Obligations on a when-issued basis can involve the additional risk that the
yield available in the market when the delivery takes place actually may be
higher than that obtained in the transaction itself. A segregated account of
the Fund consisting of cash, cash equivalents or U.S. Government securities
or other high quality liquid debt securities at least equal at all times to
the amount of the when-issued commitments will be established and maintained
at the Fund's custodian bank. Purchasing Municipal Obligations on a
when-issued basis when the Fund is fully or almost fully invested may result
in greater potential fluctuation in the value of the Fund's net assets and
its net asset value per share.
Certain municipal lease/purchase obligations in which the Fund may
invest may contain "non-appropriation" clauses which provide that the
municipality has no obligation to make lease payments in future years unless
money is appropriated for such purpose on a yearly basis. Although
"non-appropriation" lease/purchase obligations are secured by the leased
property, disposition of the leased property in the event of foreclo-
(Page 7)
sure might prove difficult. In evaluating the credit quality of a municipal
lease/purchase obligation that is unrated, The Dreyfus Corporation will
consider, on an ongoing basis, a number of factors including the likelihood
that the issuing municipality will discontinue appropriating funding for the
leased property.
Certain provisions in the Code relating to the issuance of
Municipal Obligations may reduce the volume of Municipal Obligations
qualifying for Federal tax exemption. One effect of these provisions could be
to increase the cost of the Municipal Obligations available for purchase by
the Fund and thus reduce available yield. Shareholders should consult their
tax advisers concerning the effect of these provisions on an investment in
the Fund. Proposals that may restrict or eliminate the income tax exemption
for interest on Municipal Obligations may be introduced in the future. If any
such proposal were enacted that would reduce the availability of Municipal
Obligations for investment by the Fund so as to adversely affect Fund
shareholders, the Fund would reevaluate its investment objective and policies
and submit possible changes in the Fund's structure to shareholders for their
consideration. If legislation were enacted that would treat a type of
Municipal Obligation as taxable, the Fund would treat such security as a
permissible Taxable Investment within the applicable limits set forth herein.
Investment decisions for the Fund are made independently from those
of other investment companies advised by The Dreyfus Corporation. However, if
such other investment companies are prepared to invest in, or desire to
dispose of, Municipal Obligations or Taxable Investments at the same time as
the Fund, available investments or opportunities for sales will be allocated
equitably to each investment company. In some cases, this procedure may
adversely affect the size of the position obtained for or disposed of by the
Fund or the price paid or received by the Fund.
MANAGEMENT OF THE FUND
The Dreyfus Corporation, located at 200 Park Avenue, New York, New
York 10166, was formed in 1947 and serves as the Fund's investment adviser.
The Dreyfus Corporation is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Mellon Bank, N.A.,
which is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Mellon Bank Corporation ("Mellon"). As
of January 31, 1995, The Dreyfus Corporation managed or administered
approximately $70 billion in assets for more than 1.9 million investor
accounts nationwide.
The Dreyfus Corporation supervises and assists in the overall
management of the Fund's affairs under a Management Agreement with the Fund,
subject to the overall authority of the Fund's Board of Trustees in
accordance with Massachusetts law.
Mellon is a publicly owned multibank holding company incorporated
under Pennsylvania law in 1971 and registered under the Federal Bank Holding
Company Act of 1956, as amended. Mellon provides a comprehensive range of
financial products and services in domestic and selected international
markets. Mellon is among the twenty-five largest bank holding companies in
the United States based on total assets. Mellon's principal wholly-owned
subsidiaries are Mellon Bank, N.A., Mellon Bank (DE) National Association,
Mellon Bank (MD), The Boston Company, Inc., AFCO Credit Corporation and a
number of companies known as Mellon Financial Services Corporations. Through
its subsidiaries, including The Dreyfus Corporation, Mellon managed more than
$193 billion in assets as of December 31, 1994, including approximately $70
billion in mutual fund assets. As of December 31, 1994, various subsidiaries
of Mellon provided non-investment services, such as custodial or
administration services, for approximately $654 billion in assets, including
approximately $74 billion in mutual fund assets.
For the fiscal year ended December 31, 1994, the Fund paid The
Dreyfus Corporation a monthly management fee at the annual rate of .20 of 1%
of the value of the Fund's average daily net assets.
Unless The Dreyfus Corporation gives the Fund's investors at least
90 days' notice to the contrary, The Dreyfus Corporation, and not the Fund,
will be liable for Fund expenses (exclusive of taxes, brokerage, interest on
borrowings and (with the prior written consent of the necessary state
securities commissions) extraordinary expenses) other than the following
expenses, which will be borne by the Fund: (i) the management fee payable by
the Fund monthly at the annual rate of .20 of 1% of the Fund's average daily
net assets and (ii) as
(Page 8)
to Class B shares only, payments made pursuant to the
Fund's Service Plan at the annual rate of .25 of 1% of the value of the
average daily net assets of Class B. See "Service Plan." The Fund will not
reimburse The Dreyfus Corporation for any amounts it may bear.
The Fund's distributor is Premier Mutual Fund Services, Inc. (the
"Distributor"), located at One Exchange Place, Boston, Massachusetts 02109.
The Distributor is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Institutional Administration
Services, Inc., a provider of mutual fund administration services, the parent
company of which is the Boston Institutional Group, Inc.
The Shareholder Services Group, Inc., a subsidiary of First Data
Corporation, P.O. Box 9671, Providence, Rhode Island 02940-9671, is the
Fund's Transfer and Dividend Disbursing Agent (the "Transfer Agent"). The
Bank of New York, 110 Washington Street, New York, New York 10286, is the
Fund's Custodian.
HOW TO BUY FUND SHARES
The Fund is designed for institutional investors, particularly
banks, acting for themselves or in a fiduciary, advisory, agency, custodial
or similar capacity. Fund shares may not be purchased directly by
individuals, although institutions may purchase shares for accounts
maintained by individuals. Generally, each investor will be required to open
a single master account with the Fund for all purposes. In certain cases, the
Fund may request investors to maintain separate master accounts for shares
held by the investor (i) for its own account, for the account of other
institutions and for accounts for which the institution acts as a fiduciary,
and (ii) for accounts for which the investor acts in some other capacity. An
institution may arrange with the Transfer Agent for sub-accounting services
and will be charged directly for the cost of such services.
The minimum initial investment is $10,000,000, unless: (a) the
investor has invested at least $10,000,000 in the aggregate among the Fund,
Dreyfus Cash Management, Dreyfus Cash Management Plus, Inc., Dreyfus
Government Cash Management, Dreyfus New York Municipal Cash Management,
Dreyfus Tax Exempt Cash Management, Dreyfus Treasury Cash Management and
Dreyfus Treasury Prime Cash; or (b) the investor has, in the opinion of
Dreyfus Institutional Services Division, adequate intent and availability of
funds to reach a future level of investment of $10,000,000 among the funds
identified above. There is no minimum for subsequent purchases. The initial
investment must be accompanied by the Fund's Account Application. Share
certificates are issued only upon the investor's written request. No
certificates are issued for fractional shares. The Fund reserves the right to
reject any purchase order. It is not recommended that the Fund be used as a
vehicle for Keogh, IRA or other qualified retirement plans.
Fund shares may be purchased by wire, by telephone or through
compatible computer facilities. All payments should be made in U.S. dollars
and, to avoid fees and delays, should be drawn only on U.S. banks. For
instructions concerning purchases and to determine whether their computer
facilities are compatible with the Fund's, investors should call one of the
telephone numbers listed under "General Information" in this Prospectus.
Management understands that some Service Agents and other
institutions may charge their clients fees in connection with purchases for
the accounts of their clients. These fees would be in addition to any amounts
which might be received under the Service Plan. Service Agents may receive
different levels of compensation for selling different classes of shares.
Each Service Agent has agreed to transmit to its clients a schedule of such
fees.
Fund shares are sold on a continuous basis at the net asset value
per share next determined after an order in proper form and Federal Funds
(monies of member banks in the Federal Reserve System which are held on
deposit at a Federal Reserve Bank) are received by the Custodian. If an
investor does not remit Federal Funds, its payment must be converted into
Federal Funds. This usually occurs within one business day of receipt of a
bank wire and within two business days of receipt of a check drawn on a member
bank of the Federal Reserve System. Checks drawn on banks which are not
members of the Federal Reserve System may take considerably longer to convert
into Federal Funds. Prior to receipt of Federal Funds, the investor's money
will not be invested.
The Fund's net asset value per share is determined as of 12:00
Noon, New York time, on each day the
(Page 9)
New York Stock Exchange is open for
business. Net asset value per share of each Class is computed by dividing the
value of the Fund's net assets represented by such Class (i.e., the value of
its assets less liabilities) by the total number of shares of such Class
outstanding. See "Determination of Net Asset Value" in the Fund's Statement
of Additional Information.
Except in the case of telephone orders, investors whose payments
are received in or converted into Federal Funds by 12:00 Noon, New York time,
by the Custodian will receive the dividend declared that day. Investors whose
payments are received in or converted into Federal Funds after 12:00 Noon,
New York time, by the Custodian will begin to accrue dividends on the
following business day.
Investors may telephone orders for purchase of the Fund's shares.
These orders will become effective at the price determined at 12:00 Noon, New
York time, and the shares purchased will receive the dividend on Fund shares
declared on that day if the telephone order is placed by 12:00 Noon, New York
time, and Federal Funds are received by 4:00 p.m., New York time, on that
day.
Federal regulations require that an investor provide a certified
Taxpayer Identification Number ("TIN") upon opening or reopening an account.
See "Dividends, Distributions and Taxes" and the Fund's Account Application
for further information concerning this requirement. Failure to furnish a
certified TIN to the Fund could subject an investor to a $50 penalty imposed
by the Internal Revenue Service (the "IRS").
INVESTOR SERVICES
FUND EXCHANGES -- An investor may purchase, in exchange for Class A or Class
B shares of the Fund, shares of Dreyfus Cash Management, Dreyfus Cash
Management Plus, Inc., Dreyfus Government Cash Management, Dreyfus New York
Municipal Cash Management, Dreyfus Tax Exempt Cash Management, Dreyfus
Treasury Cash Management and Dreyfus Treasury Prime Cash Management, which
have different investment objectives that may be of interest to investors.
Upon an exchange into a new account, the following shareholder services and pr
ivileges, as applicable and where available, will be automatically carried
over to the fund into which the exchange is being made: Telephone Exchange
Privilege, Redemption by Wire or Telephone, Redemption Through Compatible
Computer Facilities and the dividend/capital gain distribution option
selected by the investor.
To request an exchange, exchange instructions must be given in
writing or by telephone. See "How to Redeem Fund Shares _ Procedures." Before
any exchange, the investor must obtain and should review a copy of the
current prospectus of the fund into which the exchange is being made.
Prospectuses may be obtained by calling one of the telephone numbers listed
under "General Information". Shares will be exchanged at the net asset value
next determined after receipt of an exchange request in proper form. The excha
nge of shares of one fund for shares of another fund is treated for Federal
income tax purposes as a sale of the shares given in exchange by the investor
and, therefore, an exchanging investor may realize a taxable gain or loss. No
fees currently are charged investors directly in connection with exchanges,
although the Fund reserves the right, upon not less than 60 days' written
notice, to charge investors a nominal fee in accordance with rules
promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission. The Fund reserves the
right to reject any exchange request in whole or in part. The availability of
Fund Exchanges may be modified or terminated at any time upon notice to
investors.
DREYFUS AUTO-EXCHANGE PRIVILEGE -- Investors may invest regularly (on a
semi-monthly, monthly, quarterly or annual basis), in exchange for Class A or
Class B shares of the Fund, in shares of Dreyfus Cash Management, Dreyfus
Cash Management Plus, Inc., Dreyfus Government Cash Management, Dreyfus New
York Municipal Cash Management, Dreyfus Tax Exempt Cash Management, Dreyfus
Treasury Cash Management or Dreyfus Treasury Prime Cash Management, if the
investor is currently an investor in one of these funds. The amount an
investor designates, which can be expressed either in terms of a specific
dollar or share amount, will be exchanged automatically on the first and/or
fifteenth of the month according to the schedule that the investor has
selected. Shares will be exchanged at the then-current net asset value. The
right to exercise this Privilege may be modified or cancelled by the Fund or
the Transfer Agent. An investor may modify or cancel the exercise of this
Privilege at any time by writing to the Dreyfus Institutional Services
(Page 10)
Division, EAB Plaza, 144 Glenn Curtiss Boulevard, 8th Floor, Uniondale, New
York 11556-0144. The Fund may charge a service fee for the use of this
Privilege. No such fee currently is contemplated. The exchange of shares of
one fund forshares of another is treated for Federal income tax purposes as a
sale of the shares given in exchange by the investor and, therefore, an
exchanging investor may realize a taxable gain or loss. For more information
concerning this Privilege and the funds eligible to participate in this
Privilege, or to obtain a Dreyfus Auto-Exchange Authorization Form, please call
one of the telephone numbers listed under "General Information."
HOW TO REDEEM FUND SHARES
GENERAL -- Investors may request redemption of shares at any time and the
shares will be redeemed at the next determined net asset value.
The Fund imposes no charges when shares are redeemed. Service
Agents or other institutions may charge their clients a nominal fee for
effecting redemptions of Fund shares. Any share certificates representing
Fund shares being redeemed must be submitted with the redemption request. The
value of the shares redeemed may be more or less than their original cost,
depending upon the Fund's then-current net asset value.
If a request for redemption is received in proper form by the
Distributor by 12:00 Noon, New York time, the proceeds of the redemption, if
transfer by wire is requested, ordinarily will be transmitted in Federal
Funds on the same day and the shares will not receive the dividend declared
on that day. If the request is received later that day by the Distributor,
the shares will receive the dividend on the Fund's shares declared on that
day and the proceeds of redemption, if wire transfer is requested, ordinarily
will be transmitted in Federal Funds on the next business day.
The Fund ordinarily will make payment for all shares redeemed
within seven days after receipt by the Transfer Agent of a redemption request
in proper form, except as provided by the rules of the Securities and
Exchange Commission.
PROCEDURES -- Investors may redeem Fund shares by wire or telephone, or
through compatible computer facilities as described below.
If an investor selects a telephone redemption privilege or
telephone exchange privilege (which is granted automatically unless the
investor refuses it), the investor authorizes the Transfer Agent to act on
telephone instructions from any person representing himself or herself to be
an authorized representative of the investor and reasonably believed by the
Transfer Agent to be genuine. The Fund will require the Transfer Agent to
employ reasonable procedures, such as requiring a form of personal identificat
ion, to confirm that instructions are genuine and, if it does not follow such
procedures, the Fund or the Transfer Agent may be liable for any losses due
to unauthorized or fraudulent instructions. Neither the Fund nor the Transfer
Agent will be liable for following telephone instructions reasonably believed
to be genuine.
During times of drastic economic or market conditions, investors
may experience difficulty in contacting the Fund or its Agents by telephone
to request a redemption or exchange of Fund shares. In such cases, investors
should consider using the other redemption procedures described herein.
REDEMPTION BY WIRE OR TELEPHONE -- Investors may redeem Fund shares by wire
or telephone. The redemption proceeds will be paid by wire transfer.
Investors can redeem shares by telephone by calling one of the telephone
numbers listed under "General Information." The Fund reserves the right to
refuse any request made by wire or telephone and may limit the amount
involved or the number of telephone redemptions. This procedure may be
modified or terminated at any time by the Transfer Agent or the Fund. The
Fund's Statement of Additional Information sets forth instructions for
redeeming shares by wire. Shares for which certificates have been issued may
not be redeemed by wire or telephone.
REDEMPTION THROUGH COMPATIBLE COMPUTER FACILITIES -- The Fund makes available
to institutions the ability to redeem shares through compatible computer
facilities. Investors desiring to redeem shares in this manner should call
one of the telephone numbers listed under "General Information" to determine
whether their computer facilities are compatible and to receive instructions
for redeeming shares in this manner.
(Page 11)
SERVICE PLAN
(Class B Only)
Class B shares are subject to a Service Plan adopted pursuant to
Rule 12b-1 under the Investment Company Act of 1940. Under the Service Plan,
the Fund (a) reimburses the Distributor for distributing the Fund's Class B
shares and (b) pays The Dreyfus Corporation, Dreyfus Service Corporation, a
wholly-owned subsidiary of The Dreyfus Corporation, and any affiliate of
either of them (collectively, "Dreyfus") for advertising and marketing
relating to the Fund's Class B shares and for providing certain services
relating to Class B shareholder accounts, such as answering shareholder
inquiries regarding the Fund and providing reports and other information, and
services related to the maintenance of shareholder accounts ("Servicing"), at
an aggregate annual rate of .25 of 1% of the value of the average daily net
assets of Class B. Each of the Distributor and Dreyfus may pay one or more
Service Agents a fee in respect of the Fund's Class B shares owned by
shareholders with whom the Service Agent has a Servicing relationship or for
whom the Service Agent has a Servicing relationship or for whom the Service
Agent is the dealer or holder of record. Each of the Distributor and Dreyfus
determines the amounts, if any, to be paid to Service Agents under the
Service Plan and the basis on which such payments are made. The fee payable
for Servicing is intended to be a "service fee" as defined in Article III,
Section 26 of the NASD Rules of Fair Practice. The fees payable under the
Service Plan are payable without regard to actual expenses incurred.
SHAREHOLDER SERVICES PLAN
(Class A Only)
Class A shares are subject to a Shareholder Services Plan pursuant
to which the Fund has agreed to reimburse Dreyfus Service Corporation an
amount not to exceed an annual rate of .25 of 1% of the value of the average
daily net assets of the Class A shares for certain allocated expenses of
providing personal services to, and/or maintaining accounts of, Class A
shareholders. The services provided may include personal services relating to
shareholder accounts, such as answering shareholder inquiries regarding the
Fund and providing reports and other information, and services related to the
maintenance of shareholder accounts. Pursuant to an undertaking by The
Dreyfus Corporation described under "Management of the Fund," The Dreyfus
Corporation, and not the Fund, currently reimburses Dreyfus Service
Corporation for any such allocated expenses.
DIVIDENDS, DISTRIBUTIONS AND TAXES
The Fund ordinarily declares dividends from net investment income
on each day the New York Stock Exchange is open for business. Fund shares
begin earning income dividends on the day the purchase order is effective.
Dividends usually are paid on the last calendar day of each month, and are
automatically reinvested in additional Fund shares at net asset value or, at
the investor's option, paid in cash. The Fund's earnings for Saturdays,
Sundays and holidays are declared as dividends on the preceeding business
day. If an investor redeems all shares in its account at any time during the
month, all dividends to which the investor is entitled will be paid along
with the proceeds of the redemption. Distributions from net realized
securities gains, if any, generally are declared and paid once a year, but
the Fund may make distributions on a more frequent basis to comply with the
distribution requirements of the Code, in all events in a manner consistent
with the provisions of the Investment Company Act of 1940. The Fund will not
make distributions from net realized securities gains unless capital loss
carryovers, if any, have been utilized or have expired. Investors may choose
whether to receive distributions in cash or to reinvest in additional Fund
shares at net asset value. All expenses are accrued daily and deducted before
declaration of dividends to investors. Dividends paid by each Class will be
calculated at the same time and in the same manner and will be of the same
amount, except that the expenses attributable solely to Class A or Class B
will be borne exclusively by such Class. Class B shares will receive lower
per share dividends than Class A shares because of the higher expenses borne
by Class B. See "Annual Fund Operating Expenses."
Except for dividends from Taxable Investments, the Fund anticipates
that substantially all dividends paid by the Fund will not be subject to
Federal income tax. Dividends derived from Taxable Investments, together with
(Page 12)
distributions from any net realized short-term securities gains and all or a
portion of any gain realized from the sale or other disposition of certain
market discount bonds, paid by the Fund are taxable as ordinary income
whether received in cash or reinvested in Fund shares. No dividend paid by
the Fund will qualify for the dividends received deduction allowable to
certain U.S. corporations. Distributions from net realized long-term
securities gains of the Fund generally are taxable as long-term capital gains
for Federal income tax purposes if the beneficial holder of Fund shares is a
citizen or resident of the United States. The Code provides that the net
capital gain of an individual generally will not be subject to Federal income
tax at a rate in excess of 28%. Under the Code, interest on indebtedness
incurred or continued to purchase or carry Fund shares which is deemed to
relate to exempt-interest dividends is not deductible.
Although all or a substantial portion of the dividends paid by the
Fund may be excluded by the beneficial holders of Fund shares from their
gross income for Federal income tax purposes, the Fund may purchase specified
private activity bonds, the interest from which may be (i) a preference item
for purposes of the alternative minimum tax, (ii) a component of the
"adjusted current earnings" preference item for purposes of the corporate
alternative minimum tax as well as a component in computing the corporate
environmental tax or (iii) a factor in determining the extent to which the
Social Security benefits of a beneficial holder of Fund shares are taxable.
If the Fund purchases such securities, the portion of the Fund's dividends
related thereto will not necessarily be tax exempt to a beneficial holder of
Fund shares who is subject to the alternative minimum tax and/or tax on
Social Security benefits and may cause a beneficial holder of Fund shares to
be subject to such taxes.
Taxable dividends derived from net investment income, together with
distributions from net realized short-term securities gains and all or a
portion of any gain realized from the sale or other disposition of certain
market discount bonds, paid by the Fund with respect to Fund shares
beneficially owned by a foreign person generally are subject to U.S.
nonresident withholding tax at the rate of 30%, unless the foreign person
claims the benefit of a lower rate specified in a tax treaty. Distributions
from net realized long-term securities gains paid by the Fund with respect to
Fund shares beneficially owned by a foreign person generally will not be
subject to U.S. nonresident withholding tax. However, such distributions may
be subject to backup withholding, as described below, unless the foreign
person certifies his non-U.S. residency status.
Notice as to the tax status of an investor's dividends and
distributions will be mailed to the investor annually. Each investor also
will receive periodic summaries of its account which will include information
as to dividends and distributions from securities gains, if any, paid during
the year. These statements set forth the dollar amount of income exempt from
Federal tax and the dollar amount, if any, subject to Federal tax. These
dollar amounts will vary depending on the size and length of time of the
investor's investment in the Fund. If the Fund pays dividends derived from
taxable income, it intends to designate as taxable the same percentage of the
day's dividend as the actual taxable income earned on that day bears to total
income earned on that day. Thus, the percentage of the dividend designated as
taxable, if any, may vary from day to day.
Federal regulations generally require the Fund to withhold ("backup
withholding") and remit to the U.S. Treasury 31% of taxable dividends and
distributions from net realized securities gains paid to a shareholder if
such shareholder fails to certify either that the TIN furnished in connection
with opening an account is correct or that such shareholder has not received
notice from the IRS of being subject to backup withholding as a result of a
failure to properly report taxable dividend or interest income on a Federal
income tax return. Furthermore, the IRS may notify the Fund to institute
backup withholding if the IRS determines a shareholder's TIN is incorrect or
if a shareholder has failed to properly report taxable dividend and interest
income on a Federal income tax return.
A TIN is either the Social Security number or employer
identification number of the record owner of the account. Any tax withheld as
a result of backup withholding does not constitute an additional tax imposed
on the record owner of the account, and may be claimed as a credit on the
record owner's Federal income tax return.
Management of the Fund believes that the Fund has qualified for the
fiscal year ended December 31,
(Page 13)
1994 as a "regulated investment company" under
the Code. The Fund intends to continue to so qualify if such qualification is
in the best interests of its shareholders. Such qualification relieves the
Fund of any liability for Federal income tax to the extent its earnings are
distributed in accordance with applicable provisions of the Code. The Fund is
subject to a non-deductible 4% excise tax, measured with respect to certain
undistributed amounts of taxable investment income and capital gains, if any.
Each investor should consult its tax adviser regarding specific
questions as to Federal, state or local taxes.
GENERAL INFORMATION
The Fund was organized as an unincorporated business trust under
the laws of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts pursuant to an Agreement and
Declaration of Trust (the "Trust Agreement") dated September 12, 1990, and
commenced operations October 15, 1990. The Fund is authorized to issue an
unlimited number of shares of beneficial interest, par value $.001 per share.
The Fund's shares are classified into two classes. Each share has one vote
and shareholders will vote in the aggregate and not by class except as
otherwise required by law or with respect to any matter which affects only
one class. Holders of Class B shares only, however, will be entitled to vote
on matters submitted to shareholders pertaining to the Service Plan.
Investors have agreed to vote Fund shares for which they are the record
owners according to voting instructions received from the beneficial holder
of such shares.
Under Massachusetts law, shareholders could, under certain
circumstances, be held liable for the obligations of the Fund. However, the
Trust Agreement disclaims shareholder liability for acts or obligations of
the Fund and requires that notice of such disclaimer be given in each
agreement, obligation or instrument entered into or executed by the Fund or a
Trustee. The Trust Agreement provides for indemnification from the Fund's
property for all losses and expenses of any shareholder held personally liable
for the obligations of the Fund. Thus, the risk of a shareholder's incurring
financial loss on account of shareholder liability is limited to
circumstances in which the Fund itself would be unable to meet its
obligations, a possibility which management believes is remote. Upon payment
of any liability incurred by the Fund, the shareholder paying such liability
will be entitled to reimbursement from the general assets of the Fund. The
Trustees intend to conduct the operations of the Fund in such a way so as to
avoid, as far as possible, ultimate liability of the shareholders for
liabilities of the Fund. As described under "Management of the Fund" in the
Statement of Additional Information, the Fund ordinarily will not hold
shareholder meetings; however, shareholders under certain circumstances may
have the right to call a meeting of shareholders for the purpose of voting to
remove Trustees.
The Transfer Agent maintains a record of each investor's ownership
and sends confirmations and statements of account.
Investor inquiries may be made by writing to the Fund at 144 Glenn
Curtiss Boulevard, Uniondale, New York 11556-0144, or, in the case of
institutional investors, by calling in New York State 1-718-895-1650;
outside New York State call toll free 1-800-346-3621. Individuals or entities
for whom institutions may purchase or redeem Fund shares should call toll
free 1-800-554-4611.
The Glass-Steagall Act and other applicable laws prohibit Federally
chartered or supervised banks from engaging in certain aspects of the
business of issuing, underwriting, selling and/or distributing securities.
Accordingly, banks will perform only administrative and shareholder servicing
functions. While the matter is not free from doubt, the Fund's Board of
Trustees believes that such laws should not preclude a bank from acting on
behalf of clients as contemplated by this Prospectus. However, judicial or
administrative decisions or interpretations of such laws, as well as changes
in either Federal or state statutes or regulations relating to the
permissible activities of banks and their subsidiaries or affiliates, could
prevent a bank from continuing to perform all or part of the activities
contemplated by this Prospectus. If a bank were prohibited from so acting,
its shareholder clients would be permitted to remain Fund shareholders and
alternative means for continuing the servicing of such shareholders would be
sought. In such event, changes in the operation of the Fund
(Page 14)
might occur and
shareholders serviced by such bank might no longer be able to avail
themselves of any automatic investment or other services then being provided
by the bank. The Fund does not expect that shareholders would suffer any
adverse financial consequences as a result of any of these occurrences.
NO PERSON HAS BEEN AUTHORIZED TO GIVE ANY INFORMATION OR TO MAKE
ANY REPRESENTATIONS OTHER THAN THOSE CONTAINED IN THIS PROSPECTUS AND IN THE
FUND'S OFFICIAL SALES LITERATURE IN CONNECTION WITH THE OFFER OF THE FUND'S
SHARES, AND, IF GIVEN OR MADE, SUCH OTHER INFORMATION OR REPRESENTATIONS MUST
NOT BE RELIED UPON AS HAVING BEEN AUTHORIZED BY THE FUND. THIS PROSPECTUS
DOES NOT CONSTITUTE AN OFFER IN ANY STATE IN WHICH, OR TO ANY PERSON TO WHOM,
SUCH OFFERING MAY NOT LAWFULLY BE MADE.

Municipal Obligations. The term "Municipal Obligations" generally
includes debt obligations issued to obtain funds for various public
purposes, including the construction of a wide range of public facilities
such as airports, bridges, highways, housing, hospitals, mass
transportation, schools, streets and water and sewer works. Other public
purposes for which Municipal Obligations may be issued include refunding
outstanding obligations, obtaining funds for general operating expenses
and lending such funds to other public institutions and facilities. In
addition, certain types of industrial development bonds are issued by or
on behalf of public authorities to obtain funds to provide for the
construction, equipment, repair or improvement of privately operated
housing facilities, sports facilities, convention or trade show
facilities, airport, mass transit, industrial, port or parking facilities,
air or water pollution control facilities and certain local facilities for
water supply, gas, electricity, or sewage or solid waste disposal; the
interest paid on such obligations may be exempt from Federal income tax,
although current tax laws place substantial limitations on the size of
such issues. Such obligations are considered to be Municipal Obligations
if the interest paid thereon qualifies as exempt from Federal income tax
in the opinion of bond counsel to the issuer. There are, of course,
variations in the security of Municipal Obligations, both within a
particular classification and between classifications.
Floating and variable rate demand notes and bonds are tax exempt
obligations ordinarily having stated maturities in excess of 13 months,
but which permit the holder to demand payment of principal at any time, or
at specified intervals not exceeding 13 months, in each case upon not more
than 30 days' notice. The issuer of such obligations ordinarily has a
corresponding right, after a given period, to prepay in its discretion the
outstanding principal amount of the obligations plus accrued interest upon
a specified number of days' notice to the holders thereof. The interest
rate on a floating rate demand obligation is based on a known lending
rate, such as a bank's prime rate, and is adjusted automatically each time
such rate is adjusted. The interest rate on a variable rate demand
obligation is adjusted automatically at specified intervals.
For the purpose of diversification under the Investment Company Act
of 1940 (the "Act"), the identification of the issuer of Municipal
Obligations depends on the terms and conditions of the security. When the
assets and revenues of an agency, authority, instrumentality or other
political subdivision are separate from those of the government creating
the subdivision and the security is backed only by the assets and revenues
of the subdivision, such subdivision would be deemed to be the sole
issuer. Similarly, in the case of an industrial development bond, if that
bond is backed only by the assets and revenues of the non-governmental
user, then such non-governmental user would be deemed to be the sole
issuer. If, however, in either case, the creating government or some
other entity guarantees a security, such a guaranty would be considered a
separate security and will be treated as an issue of such government or
other entity.
The yields on Municipal Obligations are dependent on a variety of
factors, including general economic and monetary conditions, money market
factors, conditions in the Municipal Obligations market, size of a
particular offering, maturity of the obligation, and rating of the issue.
The imposition of the Fund's management fee, as well as other operating
expenses, including fees paid under the Fund's Service Plan with respect
to Class B shares only, will have the effect of reducing the yield to
investors.
Municipal lease obligations or installment purchase contract
obligations (collectively, "lease obligations") have special risks not
ordinarily associated with Municipal Obligations. Although lease
obligations do not constitute general obligations of the municipality for
which the municipality's taxing power is pledged, a lease obligation
ordinarily is backed by the municipality's covenant to budget for,
appropriate and make the payments due under the lease obligation.
However, certain lease obligations contain "non-appropriation" clauses
which provide that the municipality has no obligation to make lease or
installment purchase payments in future years unless money is appropriated
for such purpose on a yearly basis. Although "non-appropriation" lease
obligations are secured by the leased property, disposition of the
property in the event of foreclosure might prove difficult. The Fund will
seek to minimize these risks by investing only in those lease obligations
that
(1) are rated in one of the two highest categories for debt obligations by
at least two nationally recognized statistical rating organizations (or
one rating organization if the lease obligation was rated by only one such
organization) or (2) if unrated, are purchased principally from the issuer
or domestic banks or other responsible third parties, in each case only if
the seller shall have entered into an agreement with the Fund providing
that the seller or other responsible third party will either remarket or
repurchase the municipal lease within a short period after demand by the
Fund. The staff of the Securities and Exchange Commission currently
considers certain lease obligations to be illiquid. Accordingly, not more
than 10% of the value of the Fund's net assets will be invested in lease
obligations that are illiquid and in other illiquid securities. See
"Investment Restriction No. 11" below.
Ratings of Municipal Obligations. If, subsequent to its purchase by
the Fund, (a) an issue of rated Municipal Obligations ceases to be rated
in the highest rating category by at least two rating organizations (or
one rating organization if the instrument was rated by only one such
organization) or the Fund's Board determines that it is no longer of
comparable quality or (b) the Manager becomes aware that any portfolio
security not so highly rated or any unrated security has been given a
rating by any rating organization below the rating organization's second
highest rating category, the Fund's Board will reassess promptly whether
such security presents minimal credit risk and will cause the Fund to take
such action as it determines is in the best interest of the Fund and its
shareholders; provided that the reassessment required by clause (b) is not
required if the portfolio security is disposed of or matures within five
business days of the Manager becoming aware of the new rating and the
Fund's Board is subsequently notified of the Manager's actions.
To the extent that the ratings given by Moody's, S&P or Fitch may
change as a result of changes in such organizations or their rating
systems, the Fund will attempt to use comparable ratings as standards for
its investments in accordance with the investment policies contained in
the Fund's Prospectus and this Statement of Additional Information. The
ratings of Moody's, S&P and Fitch represent their opinions as to the
quality of the Municipal Obligations which they undertake to rate. It
should be emphasized, however, that ratings are relative and subjective
and are not absolute standards of quality. Although these ratings may be
an initial criterion for selection of portfolio investments, the Manager
also will evaluate these securities and the creditworthiness of the
issuers of such securities based upon financial and other available
information.
Illiquid Securities. If a substantial market of qualified
institutional buyers develops pursuant to Rule 144A under the Securities
Act of 1933, as amended, for certain restricted securities held by the
Fund, the Fund intends to treat such securities as liquid securities in
accordance with procedures approved by the Fund's Board of Trustees.
Because it is not possible to predict with assurance how the market for
restricted securities pursuant to Rule 144A will develop, the Fund's Board
of Trustees has directed the Manager to monitor carefully the Fund's
investments in such securities with particular regard to trading activity,
availability of reliable price information and other relevant information.
To the extent that for a period of time, qualified institutional buyers
cease purchasing restricted securities pursuant to Rule 144A, the Fund's
investing in such securities may have the effect of increasing the level
of illiquidity in the Fund's portfolio during such period.
Taxable Investments. Securities issued or guaranteed by the U.S.
Government or its agencies or instrumentalities include U.S. Treasury
securities, which differ in their interest rates, maturities and times of
issuance. Some obligations issued or guaranteed by U.S. Government
agencies and instrumentalities, for example, Government National Mortgage
Association pass-through certificates, are supported by the full faith and
credit of the U.S. Treasury; others, such as those of the Federal Home
Loan Banks, by the right of the issuer to borrow from the U.S. Treasury;
others, such as those issued by the Federal National Mortgage Association,
by discretionary authority of the U.S. Government to purchase certain
obligations of the agency or instrumentality; and others, such as those
issued by the Student Loan Marketing Association, only by the credit of
the agency or instrumentality. These securities bear fixed, floating or
variable rates of interest. Interest may fluctuate based on generally
recognized reference rates or the relationship of rates. While the U.S.
Government provides financial support to such U.S. Government-sponsored
agencies or instrumentalities, no assurance can be given that it will
always do so, since it is not so obligated by law. The Fund will invest
in such securities only when it is satisfied that the credit risk with
respect to the issuer is minimal.
Commercial paper consists of short-term, unsecured promissory notes
issued to finance short-term credit needs.
Certificates of deposit are negotiable certificates representing the
obligation of a bank to repay funds deposited with it for a specified
period of time.
Time deposits are non-negotiable deposits maintained in a banking
institution for a specified period of time at a stated interest rate.
Investments in time deposits generally are limited to London branches of
domestic banks that have total assets in excess of one billion dollars.
Time deposits which may be held by the Fund will not benefit from
insurance from the Bank Insurance Fund or the Savings Association
Insurance Fund administered by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation.
Bankers' acceptances are credit instruments evidencing the obligation
of a bank to pay a draft drawn on it by a customer. These instruments
reflect the obligation both of the bank and of the drawer to pay the face
amount of the instrument upon maturity. Other short-term obligations may
include uninsured, direct obligations bearing fixed, floating or variable
interest rates.
Repurchase agreements involve the acquisition by the Fund of an
underlying debt instrument, subject to an obligation of the seller to
repurchase, and the Fund to resell, the instrument at a fixed price
usually not more than one week after its purchase. The Fund's custodian
or sub-custodian will have custody of, and will hold in a segregated
account, securities acquired by the Fund under a repurchase agreement.
Repurchase agreements are considered by the staff of the Securities and
Exchange Commission to be loans by the Fund. In an attempt to reduce the
risk of incurring a loss on a repurchase agreement, the Fund will enter
into repurchase agreements only with domestic banks with total assets in
excess of one billion dollars or primary government securities dealers
reporting to the Federal Reserve Bank of New York, with respect to
securities of the type in which the Fund may invest, and will require that
additional securities be deposited with it if the value of the securities
purchased should decrease below resale price. The Manager will monitor on
an ongoing basis the value of the collateral to assure that it always
equals or exceeds the repurchase price. Certain costs may be incurred by
the Fund in connection with the sale of the securities if the seller does
not repurchase them in accordance with the repurchase agreement. In
addition, if bankruptcy proceedings are commenced with respect to the
seller of the securities, realization on the securities by the Fund may be
delayed or limited. The Fund will consider on an ongoing basis the
creditworthiness of the institutions with which it enters into repurchase
agreements.
Investment Restrictions. The Fund has adopted investment
restrictions numbered 1 through 10 as fundamental policies. These
restrictions cannot be changed without approval by the holders of a
majority (as defined in the Act) of the Fund's outstanding voting shares.
Investment restriction number 11 is not a fundamental policy and may be
changed by vote of a majority of the Fund's Trustees at any time. The
Fund may not:
1. Purchase securities other than Municipal Obligations and Taxable
Investments as those terms are defined above and in the Fund's Prospectus.
2. Borrow money, except from banks for temporary or emergency (not
leveraging) purposes in an amount up to 15% of the value of the Fund's
total assets (including the amount borrowed) based on the lesser of cost
or market, less liabilities (not including the amount borrowed) at the
time the borrowing is made. While borrowings exceed 5% of the value of
the Fund's total assets, the Fund will not make any additional
investments.
3. Pledge, hypothecate, mortgage or otherwise encumber its assets,
except to secure borrowings for temporary or emergency purposes.
4. Sell securities short or purchase securities on margin.
5. Underwrite the securities of other issuers, except that the Fund
may bid separately or as part of a group for the purchase of Municipal
Obligations directly from an issuer for its own portfolio to take
advantage of the lower purchase price available.
6. Purchase or sell real estate, real estate investment trust
securities, commodities or commodity contracts, or oil and gas interests,
but this shall not prevent the Fund from investing in Municipal
Obligations secured by real estate or interests therein.
7. Make loans to others except through the purchase of qualified
debt obligations and the entry into repurchase agreements referred to
above and in the Fund's Prospectus.
8. Invest more than 5% of its assets in the obligations of any
issuer, except that up to 25% of the value of the Fund's total assets may
be invested, and securities issued or guaranteed by the U.S. Government or
its agencies or instrumentalities may be purchased, without regard to any
such limitation.
9. Invest more than 25% of its total assets in the securities of
issuers in any single industry; provided that there shall be no such
limitation on the purchase of Municipal Obligations and, for temporary
defensive purposes, obligations issued or guaranteed by the U.S.
Government, its agencies or instrumentalities.
10. Invest in securities of other investment companies, except as
they may be acquired as part of a merger, consolidation or acquisition of
assets.
11. Enter into repurchase agreements providing for settlement in
more than seven days after notice or purchase securities which are
illiquid if, in the aggregate, more than 10% of the Fund's net assets
would be so invested.
Notwithstanding Investment Restriction Nos. 1, 3 and 6, the Fund
reserves the right to enter into interest rate futures contracts and
municipal bond index futures contracts, and any options that may be
offered in respect thereof, subject to the restrictions then in effect of
the Securities and Exchange Commission and the Commodity Futures Trading
Commission and to the receipt or taking, as the case may be, of
appropriate consents, approvals and other actions from or by those
regulatory bodies. In any event, no such contracts or options will be
entered into until a general description of the terms thereof are set
forth in a subsequent prospectus and statement of additional information,
the Registration Statement with respect to which has been filed with the
Securities and Exchange Commission and has become effective.
For purposes of Investment Restriction No. 9, industrial development
bonds, where the payment of principal and interest is the ultimate
responsibility of companies within the same industry, are grouped together
as an "industry." If a percentage restriction is adhered to at the time
of investment, a later increase or decrease in percentage resulting from a
change in values or assets will not constitute a violation of such
restriction.
The Fund may make commitments more restrictive than the restrictions
listed above so as to permit the sale of Fund shares in certain states.
Should the Fund determine that a commitment is no longer in the best
interests of the Fund and its shareholders, the Fund reserves the right to
revoke the commitment by terminating the sale of Fund shares in the state
involved.

Manager also maintains a research department with a professional staff of
securities analysts who provide research services for the Fund as well as
for other funds advised by the Manager. All purchases and sales are
reported for the Trustees' review at the meeting subsequent to such
transactions.
The Manager maintains office facilities on behalf of the Fund, and
furnishes statistical and research data, clerical help, accounting, data
processing, bookkeeping and internal auditing and certain other required
services to the Fund. The Manager also may make such advertising and
promotional expenditures, using its own resources, as it from time to time
deems appropriate.
As compensation for its services, the Fund has agreed to pay the
Manager a monthly management fee at the annual rate of .20 of 1% of the
value of the Fund's average daily net assets. All fees and expenses are
accrued daily and deducted before the declaration of dividends to
shareholders. The management fees payable for the fiscal years ended
December 31, 1992 and 1993 were $469,609 and $699,818, respectively.
These amounts were reduced pursuant to an undertaking by the Manager,
resulting in net management fees paid for such fiscal years of $226,207
and $456,965, respectively. The management fee paid for the fiscal year
ended December 31, 1994 was $617,875.
Unless the Manager gives the Fund's investors at least 90 days'
notice to the contrary, the Manager, and not the Fund, will be liable for
Fund expenses (exclusive of taxes, brokerage, interest on borrowings and
(with the prior written consent of the necessary state securities
commissions) extraordinary expenses) other than the following expenses,
which will be borne by the Fund: (i) the management fee payable by the
Fund monthly at the annual rate of .20 of 1% of the Fund's average daily
net assets and (ii) as to Class B shares only, payments made pursuant to
the Fund's Service Plan at the annual rate of .25 of 1% of the value of
the average daily net assets of Class B. See "Service Plan."
In addition, the Agreement provides that if in any fiscal year the
aggregate expenses of the Fund, exclusive of taxes, brokerage, interest on
borrowings and (with the prior written consent of the necessary state
securities commissions) extraordinary expenses, but including the
management fee, exceed the expense limitation of any state having
jurisdiction over the Fund, the Fund may deduct from the payment to be
made to the Manager under the Agreement, or the Manager will bear, such
excess expense to the extent required by state law. Such deduction or
payment, if any, will be estimated daily, and reconciled and effected or
paid, as the case may be, on a monthly basis.
The aggregate of the fees payable to the Manager is not subject to
reduction as the value of the Fund's net assets increases.
PURCHASE OF FUND SHARES
The following information supplements and should be read in
conjunction with the section in the Fund's Prospectus entitled "How to Buy
Fund Shares."
The Distributor. The Distributor serves as the Fund's distributor
pursuant to an agreement which is renewable annually. The Distributor
also acts as distributor for the other funds in the Dreyfus Family of
Funds and for certain other investment companies.
Using Federal Funds. The Shareholder Services Group, Inc., the
Fund's transfer and dividend disbursing agent (the "Transfer Agent"), or
the Fund may attempt to notify the investor upon receipt of checks drawn
on banks that are not members of the Federal Reserve System as to the
possible delay in conversion into Federal Funds and may attempt to arrange
for a better means of transmitting the money. If the investor is a
customer of a securities dealer, bank or other financial institution and
his order to purchase Fund shares is paid for other than in Federal Funds,
the securities dealer, bank or other financial institution, acting on
behalf of its customer, will complete the conversion into, or itself
advance, Federal Funds generally on the business day following receipt of
the customer order. The order is effective only when so converted and
received by the Custodian. An order for the purchase of Fund shares
placed by an investor with a sufficient Federal Funds or cash balance in
his brokerage account with a securities dealer, bank or other financial
institution will become effective on the day that the order, including
Federal Funds, is received by the Custodian. In some states, banks or
other financial institutions effecting transactions in Fund shares may be
required to register as dealers pursuant to state law.
SERVICE PLAN
(CLASS B ONLY)
The following information supplements and should be read in
conjunction with the section in the Fund's Prospectus entitled "Service
Plan."
Rule 12b-1 (the "Rule") adopted by the Securities and Exchange
Commission under the Act provides, among other things, that an investment
company may bear expenses of distributing its shares only pursuant to a
plan adopted in accordance with the Rule. The Fund's Board of Trustees
has adopted such a plan (the "Service Plan") with respect to the Fund's
Class B shares, pursuant to which the Fund reimburses the Distributor for
distributing Class B shares and pays the Manager, Dreyfus Services
Corporation, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Manager, and any affiliate
of either of them (collectively, "Dreyfus") for advertising and marketing
Class B shares and for the provision of certain services to the holders of
Class B shares. Under the Service Plan, the Distributor and Dreyfus may
make payments to certain financial institutions, securities dealers and
other financial industry professionals (collectively, "Service Agents") in
respect to these services. The Fund's Board of Trustees believes that
there is a reasonable likelihood that the Service Plan will benefit the
Fund and the holders of Class B shares.
A quarterly report of the amounts expended under the Service Plan,
and the purposes for which such expenditures were incurred, must be made
to the Trustees for their review. In addition, the Service Plan provides
that it may not be amended to increase materially the costs which holders
of Class B shares may bear pursuant to the Service Plan without the
approval of the holders of Class B shares and that other material
amendments of the Service Plan must be approved by the Board of Trustees,
and by the Trustees who are not "interested persons" (as defined in the
Act) of the Fund and have no direct or indirect financial interest in the
operation of the Service Plan or in any agreements entered into in
connection with the Service Plan or in any agreements entered into in
connection with the Service Plan, by vote cast in person at a meeting
called for the purpose of considering such amendments. The Service Plan
is subject to annual approval by such vote of the Trustees cast in person
at a meeting called for the purpose of voting on the Service Plan. The
Service Plan was so approved by the Trustees at a meeting held on May 24,
1994. The Service Plan may be terminated at any time by vote of a
majority of the Trustees who are not "interested persons" and have no
direct or indirect financial interest in the operation of the Service Plan
or in any agreements entered into in connection with the Service Plan or
by vote of the holders of a majority of Class B shares.
For the period August 24, 1994 through December 31, 1994, the Fund
reimbursed the Distributor in the amount of $3,783 for distributing Class
B shares, and paid Dreyfus $41 for marketing and advertising Class B
shares and for providing certain services to Class B shareholders,
totaling $3,823 paid by the Fund pursuant to the Service Plan currently in
effect.
Prior Service Plan On August 24, 1994, the Fund terminated its then
existing service plan, which provided that the Fund pay the Dreyfus
Service Corporation for distributing, marketing, advertising Class B
shares and for the provision of certain services to the holders of Class B
shares. For the period January 1, 1994 through August 23, 1994, the total
amount charged to the Fund under such plan was $9,841, of which $9,534 was
paid to the Fund for distributing Class B shares and $307 was paid for
marketing and advertising Class B shares and for services provided to
Class B shareholders.
SHAREHOLDER SERVICES PLAN
(CLASS A ONLY)
The following information supplements and should be read in
conjunction with the section in the Fund's Prospectus entitled
"Shareholder Services Plan."
The Fund has adopted a Shareholder Services Plan (the "Plan")
pursuant to which the Fund has agreed to reimburse Dreyfus Service
Corporation for certain allocated expenses of providing personal services
and/or maintaining shareholder accounts with respect to Class A shares
only. The services provided may include personal services relating to
shareholder accounts, such as answering shareholder inquiries regarding
the Fund and providing reports and other information, and services related
to the maintenance of shareholder accounts.
A quarterly report of the amounts expended under the Plan, and the
purposes for which such expenditures were incurred, must be made to the
Trustees for their review. In addition, the Plan provides that material
amendments of the Plan must be approved by the Board of Trustees, and by
the Trustees who are not "interested persons" (as defined in the Act) of
the Fund or the Manager and have no direct or indirect financial interest
in the operation of the Plan, by vote cast in person at a meeting called
for the purpose of considering such amendments. The Plan is subject to
annual approval by such vote of the Trustees cast in person at a meeting
called for the purpose of voting on the Plan. The Plan is terminable at
any time by vote of a majority of the Trustees who are not "interested
persons" and have no direct or indirect financial interest in the
operation of the Plan.
For the fiscal year ended December 31, 1994, no amounts were paid by
the Fund, with respect to Class A shares, under the Shareholder Services
Plan pursuant to an undertaking by the Manager.
REDEMPTION OF FUND SHARES
The following information supplements and should be read in
conjunction with the section in the Fund's Prospectus entitled "How to
Redeem Fund Shares."
Redemption by Wire or Telephone. By using this procedure, the
investor authorizes the Transfer Agent to act on wire or telephone
redemption instructions from any person representing himself or herself to
be an authorized representative of the investor and reasonably believed by
the Transfer Agent to be genuine. Ordinarily, the Fund will initiate
payment for shares redeemed pursuant to this procedure on the same
business day if the Transfer Agent receives the redemption request in
proper form prior to 12:00 Noon, New York time, on such day; otherwise,
the Fund will initiate payment on the next business day. Such payment
will be made to a bank that is a member of the Federal Reserve System.
Investors with access to telegraphic equipment may wire redemption
requests to the Transfer Agent by employing the following transmittal code
which may be used for domestic or overseas transmission:
Transfer Agent's
Transmittal Code Answer Back Sign
________________ ________________
144295 144295 TSSG PREP
Investors who do not have direct access to telegraphic equipment may
have the wire transmitted by contacting a TRT Cables operator at 1-800-
654-7171, toll free. Investors should advise the operator that the above
transmittal code must be used and should also inform the operator of the
Transfer Agent's answer back sign.
Redemption Commitment. The Fund has committed itself to pay in cash
all redemption requests by any shareholders of record, limited in amount
during any 90-day period to the lesser of $250,000 or 1% of the value of
the Fund's net assets at the beginning of such period. Such commitment is
irrevocable without the prior approval of the Securities and Exchange
Commission. In the case of requests for redemption in excess of such
amount, the Board of Trustees reserves the right to make payments in whole
or in part in securities or other assets of the Fund in case of an
emergency or any time a cash distribution would impair the liquidity of
the Fund to the detriment of the existing shareholders. In such event,
the securities would be valued in the same manner as the Fund's portfolio
is valued. If the recipient sold such securities, brokerage charges would
be incurred.
Suspension of Redemptions. The right of redemption may be suspended
or the date of payment postponed (a) during any period when the New York
Stock Exchange is closed (other than a customary weekend and holiday
closing), (b) when trading in the markets the Fund ordinarily utilizes is
restricted, or when an emergency exists as determined by the Securities
and Exchange Commission so that disposal of the Fund's investments or
determination of its net asset value is not reasonably practicable, or (c)
for such other periods as the Securities and Exchange Commission by order
may permit to protect the Fund's shareholders.
DETERMINATION OF NET ASSET VALUE
The following information supplements and should be read in
conjunction with the section in the Fund's Prospectus entitled "How to Buy
Fund Shares."
Amortized Cost Pricing. The valuation of the Fund's portfolio
securities is based upon their amortized cost which does not take into
account unrealized capital gains or losses. This involves valuing an
instrument at its cost and thereafter assuming a constant amortization to
maturity of any discount or premium, regardless of the impact of
fluctuating interest rates on the market value of the instrument. While
this method provides certainty in valuation, it may result in periods
during which value, as determined by amortized cost, is higher or lower
than the price the Fund would receive if it sold the instrument.
The Board of Trustees has established, as a particular responsibility
within the overall duty of care owed to the Fund's investors, procedures
reasonably designed to stabilize the Fund's price per share as computed
for the purpose of purchases and redemptions at $1.00. Such procedures
include review of the Fund's portfolio holdings by the Board of Trustees,
at such intervals as it deems appropriate, to determine whether the Fund's
net asset value calculated by using available market quotations or market
equivalents deviates from $1.00 per share based on amortized cost. Market
quotations and market equivalents used in such review are obtained from an
independent pricing service (the "Service") approved by the Board of
Trustees. The Service values the Fund's investments based on methods
which include consideration of: yields or prices of municipal obligations
of comparable quality, coupon, maturity and type; indications of values
from dealers; and general market conditions. The Service also may employ
electronic data processing techniques and/or a matrix system to determine
valuations.
The extent of any deviation between the Fund's net asset value based
upon available market quotations or market equivalents and $1.00 per share
based on amortized cost will be examined by the Board of Trustees. If
such deviation exceeds 1/2 of 1%, the Board of Trustees will consider what
actions, if any, will be initiated. In the event the Board of Trustees
determines that a deviation exists which may result in material dilution
or other unfair results to investors or existing shareholders, it has
agreed to take such corrective action as it regards as necessary and ap-
propriate, including: selling portfolio instruments prior to maturity to
realize capital gains or losses or to shorten average portfolio maturity;
withholding dividends or paying distributions from capital or capital
gains; redeeming shares in kind; or establishing a net asset value per
share by using available market quotations or market equivalents.
New York Stock Exchange Closings. The holidays (as observed) on
which the New York Stock Exchange is closed currently are: New Year's
Day, Presidents' Day, Good Friday, Memorial Day, Independence Day, Labor
Day, Thanksgiving and Christmas.
PORTFOLIO TRANSACTIONS
Portfolio securities ordinarily are purchased from and sold to
parties acting as either principal or agent. Newly-issued securities
ordinarily are purchased directly from the issuer or from an underwriter;
other purchases and sales usually are placed with those dealers from which
it appears that the best price or execution will be obtained. Usually no
brokerage commissions, as such, are paid by the Fund for such purchases
and sales, although the price paid usually includes an undisclosed
compensation to the dealer acting as agent. The prices paid to
underwriters of newly-issued securities usually include a concession paid
by the issuer to the underwriter, and purchases of after-market securities
from dealers ordinarily are executed at a price between the bid and asked
price. No brokerage commissions have been paid by the Fund to date.
Transactions are allocated to various dealers by the Fund's
Investment Officers in their best judgment. The primary consideration is
prompt and effective execution of orders at the most favorable price.
Subject to that primary consideration, dealers may be selected for
research, statistical or other services to enable the Manager to
supplement its own research and analysis with the views and information of
other securities firms and may be selected based upon their sales of Fund
shares.
Research services furnished by brokers through which the Fund effects
securities transactions may be used by the Manager in advising other funds
it advises and, conversely, research services furnished to the Manager by
brokers in connection with other funds the Manager advises may be used by
the Manager in advising the Fund. Although it is not possible to place a
dollar value on these services, it is the opinion of the Manager that the
receipt and study of such services should not reduce the overall expenses
of its research department.
INVESTOR SERVICES
The following information supplements and should be read in
conjunction with the section in the Fund's Prospectus entitled "Investor
Services."
Fund Exchanges. By using the Telephone Exchange Privilege, the
investor authorizes the Transfer Agent to act on exchange instructions
from any person representing himself or herself to be an authorized
representative of the investor and reasonably believed by the Transfer
Agent to be genuine. Telephone exchanges may be subject to limitations as
to the amount involved or the number of telephone exchanges permitted.
Shares will be exchanged at the net asset value next determined after
receipt of an exchange request in proper form. Shares in certificate form
are not eligible for telephone exchange.
Dreyfus Auto-Exchange Privilege. Dreyfus Auto-Exchange permits an
investor to purchase, in exchange for shares of the Fund, shares of
Dreyfus Cash Management, Dreyfus Cash Management Plus, Inc., Dreyfus
Government Cash Management, Dreyfus New York Municipal Cash Management,
Dreyfus Tax Exempt Cash Management, Dreyfus Treasury Cash Management or
Dreyfus Treasury Prime Cash Management. This Privilege is available only
for existing accounts. Shares will be exchanged on the basis of relative
net asset value. Enrollment in or modification or cancellation of this
Privilege is effective three business days following notification by the
investor. An investor will be notified if its account falls below the
amount designated under this Privilege. In this case, an investor's
account will fall to zero unless additional investments are made in excess
of the designated amount prior to the next Auto-Exchange transaction.
Shares in certificate form are not eligible for this Privilege.
Fund Exchanges and the Dreyfus Auto-Exchange Privilege are available
to investors resident in any state in which shares of the fund being
acquired may legally be sold. Shares may be exchanged only between
accounts having identical names and other identifying designations.
The Fund reserves the right to reject any exchange request in whole
or in part. The availability of Fund Exchanges or the Dreyfus Auto-
Exchange Privilege may be modified or terminated at any time upon notice
to investors.
DIVIDENDS, DISTRIBUTIONS AND TAXES
The following information supplements and should be read in
conjunction with the section in the Fund's Prospectus entitled "Dividends,
Distributions and Taxes."
Ordinarily, gains and losses realized from portfolio transactions
will be treated as capital gain or loss. However, all or a portion of any
gains realized from the sale or other disposition of certain market
discount bonds will be treated as ordinary income under Section 1276 of
the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended.
YIELD INFORMATION
The following information supplements and should be read in
conjunction with the section in the Fund's Prospectus entitled "Yield
Information."
For the seven-day period ended December 31, 1994, yield and effective
yield on Class A shares were 4.22% and 4.31%, respectively. For the
seven-day period ended December 31, 1994, yield and effective yield on
Class B shares were 3.97% and 4.05%, respectively. Yield is computed in
accordance with a standardized method which involves determining the net
change in the value of a hypothetical pre-existing Fund account having a
balance of one share at the beginning of a seven calendar day period for
which yield is to be quoted, dividing the net change by the value of the
account at the beginning of the period to obtain the base period return,
and annualizing the results (i.e., multiplying the base period return by
365/7). The net change in the value of the account reflects the value of
additional shares purchased with dividends declared on the original share
and any such additional shares and fees that may be charged to the
shareholder's account, in proportion to the length of the base period and
the Fund's average account size, but does not include realized gains and
losses or unrealized appreciation and depreciation. Effective yield is
computed by adding 1 to the base period return (calculated as described
above), raising that sum to a power equal to 365 divided by 7, and
subtracting 1 from the result.
Based upon a 1994 Federal income tax rate of 39.60%, the tax
equivalent yields for Class A and Class B shares for the seven-day period
ended December 31, 1994 were 6.99% and 6.57%, respectively. Tax
equivalent yield is computed by dividing that portion of the yield or
effective yield (calculated as described above) which is tax exempt by 1
minus a stated tax rate and adding the quotient to that portion, if any,
of the yield of the Fund that is not tax exempt.
The tax equivalent yield noted above represents the application of
the highest Federal marginal personal income tax rate currently in effect.
The tax equivalent figure, however, does not include the potential effect
of any state or local (including, but not limited to, county, district or
city) taxes, including applicable surcharges. In addition, there may be
pending legislation which could affect such stated tax rate or yield.
Each investor should consult its tax adviser, and consider its own factual
circumstances and applicable tax laws, in order to ascertain the relevant
tax equivalent yield.
Yields will fluctuate and are not necessarily representative of
future results. Each investor should remember that yield is a function of
the type and quality of the instruments in the portfolio, portfolio
maturity and operating expenses. An investor's principal in the Fund is
not guaranteed. See "Determination of Net Asset Value" for a discussion
of the manner in which the Fund's price per share is determined.
From time to time, the Fund may use hypothetical tax equivalent
yields or charts in its advertising. These hypothetical yields or charts
will be used for illustrative purposes only and not as representative of
the Fund's past or future performance.
From time to time, advertising materials for the Fund may refer to or
discuss then-current or past economic conditions, developments and/or
events, or actual or proposed tax legislation. From time to time,
advertising materials for the Fund may also refer to statistical or other
information concerning trends relating to investment companies, as
compiled by industry associations such as the Investment Company
Institute.

APPENDIX
Description of S&P, Moody's and Fitch ratings:
S&P
Municipal Bond Ratings
An S&P municipal bond rating is a current assessment of the
creditworthiness of an obligor with respect to a specific obligation.
The ratings are based on current information furnished by the issuer
or obtained by S&P from other sources it considers reliable, and will
include: (1) likelihood of default-capacity and willingness of the
obligor as to the timely payment of interest and repayment of principal in
accordance with the terms of the obligation; (2) nature and provisions of
the obligation; and (3) protection afforded by, and relative position of,
the obligation in the event of bankruptcy, reorganization or other
arrangement under the laws of bankruptcy and other laws affecting
creditors' rights.
AAA
Debt rated AAA has the highest rating assigned by S&P. Capacity to
pay interest and repay principal is extremely strong.
AA
Debt rated AA has a very strong capacity to pay interest and repay
principal and differs from the highest rated issues only in small degree.
The AA rating may be modified by the addition of a plus or a minus sign,
which is used to show relative standing within the category.
Municipal Note Ratings
SP-1
The issuers of these municipal notes exhibit very strong or strong
capacity to pay principal and interest. Those issues determined to
possess overwhelming safety characteristics are given a plus (+)
designation.
Commercial Paper Ratings
The rating A is the highest rating and is assigned by S&P to issues
that are regarded as having the greatest capacity for timely payment.
Issues in this category are delineated with the numbers 1, 2 and 3 to
indicate the relative degree of safety. Paper rated A-1 indicates that
the degree of safety regarding timely payment is either overwhelming or
very strong. Those issues determined to possess overwhelming safety
characteristics are denoted with a plus sign (+) designation.
Moody's
Municipal Bond Ratings
Aaa
Bonds which are rated Aaa are judged to be of the best quality. They
carry the smallest degree of investment risk and are generally referred to
as "gilt edge." Interest payments are protected by a large or by an
exceptionally stable margin and principal is secure. While the various
protective elements are likely to change, such changes as can be
visualized are most unlikely to impair the fundamentally strong position
of such issues.
Aa
Bonds which are rated Aa are judged to be of high quality by all
standards. Together with the Aaa group they comprise what generally are
known as high grade bonds. They are rated lower than the best bonds
because margins of protection may not be as large as in Aaa securities or
fluctuation of protective elements may be of greater amplitude or there
may be other elements present which make the long-term risks appear
somewhat larger than in Aaa securities. Bonds in the Aa category which
Moody's believes possess the strongest investment attributes are
designated by the symbol Aa1.
Municipal Note Ratings
Moody's ratings for state and municipal notes and other short-term
loans are designated Moody's Investment Grade (MIG). Such ratings
recognize the difference between short-term credit risk and long-term
risk. Factors affecting the liquidity of the borrower and short-term
cyclical elements are critical in short-term ratings, while other factors
of major importance in bond risk, long-term secular trends for example,
may be less important over the short run.
A short-term rating may also be assigned on an issue having a demand
feature. Such ratings will be designated as VMIG or, if the demand
feature is not rated, as NR. Short-term ratings on issues with demand
features are differentiated by the use of the VMIG symbol to reflect such
characteristics as payment upon periodic demand rather than fixed maturity
dates and payment relying on external liquidity. Additionally, investors
should be alert to the fact that the source of payment may be limited to
the external liquidity with no or limited legal recourse to the issuer in
the event the demand is not met.
Moody's short-term ratings are designated Moody's Investment Grade as
MIG 1 or VMIG 1 through MIG 4 or VMIG 4. As the name implies, when
Moody's assigns a MIG or VMIG rating, all categories define an investment
grade situation.
MIG 1/VMIG 1
This designation denotes best quality. There is present strong
protection by established cash flows, superior liquidity support or
demonstrated broad-based access to the market for refinancing.
MIG 2/VMIG 2
This designation denotes high quality. Margins of protection are
ample although not so large as in the preceding group.
Commercial Paper Ratings
The rating Prime-1 (P-1) is the highest commercial paper rating
assigned by Moody's. Issuers of P-1 paper must have a superior capacity
for repayment of short-term promissory obligations, and ordinarily will be
evidenced by leading market positions in well established industries, high
rates of return on funds employed, conservative capitalization structures
with moderate reliance on debt and ample asset protection, broad margins
in earnings coverage of fixed financial charges and high internal cash
generation, and well established access to a range of financial markets
and assured sources of alternate liquidity. Issuers rated Prime-2 (P-2)
have a strong ability for repayment of senior short-term debt obligations.
Capitalization characteristics, while still appropriate, may be more
affected by external conditions. Ample alternate liquidity is maintained.
Fitch
Municipal Bond Ratings
The ratings represent Fitch's assessment of the issuer's ability to
meet the obligations of a specific debt issue or class of debt. The
ratings take into consideration special features of the issue, its
relationship to other obligations of the issuer, the current financial
condition and operative performance of the issuer and of any guarantor, as
well as the political and economic environment that might affect the
issuer's future financial strength and credit quality.
AAA
Bonds rated AAA are considered to be investment grade and of the
highest credit quality. The obligor has an exceptionally strong ability
to pay interest and repay principal, which is unlikely to be affected by
reasonably foreseeable events.
AA
Bonds rated AA are considered to be investment grade and of very high
credit quality. The obligor's ability to pay interest and repay principal
is very strong, although not quite as strong as bonds rated AAA. Because
bonds rated in the AAA and AA categories are not significantly vulnerable
to foreseeable future developments, short-term debt of these issuers is
generally rated F-1+. Plus (+) and minus (-) signs are used with the
rating symbol AA to indicate the relative position of a credit within the
rating category.
Short-Term Ratings
Fitch's short-term ratings apply to debt obligations that are payable
on demand or have original maturities of up to three years, including
commercial paper, certificates of deposit, medium-term notes, and
municipal and investment notes.
Although the credit analysis is similar to Fitch's bond rating
analysis, the short-term rating places greater emphasis than bond ratings
on the existence of liquidity necessary to meet the issuer's obligations
in a timely manner.
F-1+
Exceptionally Strong Credit Quality. Issues assigned this rating are
regarded as having the strongest degree of assurance for timely payment.
F-1
Very Strong Credit Quality. Issues assigned this rating reflect an
assurance of timely payment only slightly less in degree than issues rated
F-1+.
F-2
Good Credit Quality. Issues carrying this rating have a satisfactory
degree of assurance for timely payments, but the margin of safety is not
as great as the F-1+ and F-1 categories.

FINANCIAL HIGHLIGHTS
Reference is made to page 3 of the Fund's Prospectus dated May 1, 1995.
See notes to financial statements.
DREYFUS MUNICIPAL CASH MANAGEMENT PLUS
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE 1--SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES:
The Fund is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 ("Act")
as a diversified open-end management investment company. Dreyfus Service
Corporation, until August 24, 1994, acted as the distributor of the Fund's
shares, which are sold to the public without a sales load. Dreyfus Service
Corporation is a wholly-owned subsidiary of The Dreyfus Corporation
("Manager"). Effective August 24, 1994, the Manager became a direct
subsidiary of Mellon Bank, N.A.
On August 24, 1994, Premier Mutual Fund Services, Inc. (the
"Distributor") was engaged as the Fund's distributor. The Distributor,
located at One Exchange Place, Boston, Massachusetts 02109, is a wholly-owned
subsidiary of Institutional Administration Services, Inc., a provider of
mutual fund administration services, the parent company of which is Boston
Institutional Group, Inc.
It is the Fund's policy to maintain a continuous net asset value per
share of $1.00; the Fund has adopted certain investment, portfolio valuation
and dividend and distribution policies to enable it to do so. There is no
assurance, however, that the Fund will be able to maintain a stable net asset
value of $1.00.
The Fund offers both Class A and Class B shares. Class B shares are
subject to a Service Plan adopted pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the Act. Other
differences between the two Classes include the services offered to and the
expenses borne by each Class and certain voting rights.
(A) PORTFOLIO VALUATION: Investments are valued at amortized cost, which
has been determined by the Fund's Board of Trustees to represent the fair
value of the Fund's investments.
(B) SECURITIES TRANSACTIONS AND INVESTMENT INCOME: Securities
transactions are recorded on a trade date basis. Interest income, adjusted
for amortization of premiums and original issue discounts on investments, is
earned from settlement date and recognized on the accrual basis. Realized
gain and loss from securities transactions are recorded on the identified
cost basis.
(C) DIVIDENDS TO SHAREHOLDERS: It is the policy of the Fund to declare
dividends daily from investment income-net. Such dividends are paid monthly.
Dividends from net realized capital gain are normally declared and paid
annually, but the Fund may make distributions on a more frequent basis to
comply with the distribution requirements of the Internal Revenue Code. To
the extent that net realized capital gain can be offset by capital loss
carryovers, it is the policy of the Fund not to distribute such gain.
(D) FEDERAL INCOME TAXES: It is the policy of the Fund to continue to
qualify as a regulated investment company, which can distribute tax exempt
dividends, by complying with the applicable provisions of the Internal
Revenue Code, and to make distributions of income and net realized capital
gain sufficient to relieve it from substantially all Federal income and
excise taxes.
The Fund has an unused capital loss carryover of approximately $144,000
available for Federal income tax purposes to be applied against future net
securities profits, if any realized subsequent to December 31, 1994. If not
applied, the carryover expires in fiscal 2002.
At December 31, 1994, the cost of investments for Federal income tax
purposes was substantially the same as the cost for financial reporting
purposes (see the Statement of Investments).
DREYFUS MUNICIPAL CASH MANAGEMENT PLUS
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
NOTE 2--MANAGEMENT FEE AND OTHER TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES:
(A) Pursuant to a management agreement ("Agreement") with the Manager,
the management fee is computed at the annual rate of .20 of 1% of the average
daily value of the Fund's net assets and is payable monthly.
The Agreement provides for an expense reimbursement from the Manager
should the Fund's aggregate expenses, exclusive of taxes, interest on
borrowings, brokerage and extraordinary expenses, exceed the expense
limitation of any state having jurisdiction over the Fund for any full year.
The most stringent state expense limitation applicable to the Fund presently
requires reimbursement of expenses in any full year that such expenses
(excluding distribution expenses and certain expenses as described above) exce
ed 2 1/2% of the first $30 million, 2% of the next $70 million and 1 1/2% of
the excess over $100 million of the average value of the Fund's net assets in
accordance with California "blue sky" regulations.
Currently, due to an undertaking, the Manager, and not the Fund, is
liable for all expenses of the Fund (excluding certain expenses as described
above) other than management fee, and with respect to the Fund's Class B
shares, Rule 12b-1 Service Plan expenses.
The Manager may modify the existing undertaking provided that the Fund's
shareholders are given 90 days prior notice.
(B) On August 5, 1994, Fund shareholders approved a revised Class B
Service Plan (the "Plan") pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the Act. Pursuant to
the Plan, effective August 24, 1994, the Fund reimburses the Distributor for
distributing the Fund's Class B shares. The Fund also pays The Dreyfus
Corporation and Dreyfus Service Corporation, and their affiliates
(collectively "Dreyfus") for advertising and marketing relating to the Fund's
Class B shares and for providing certain services relating to Class B sharehol
der accounts, such as answering shareholder inquiries regarding the Fund and
providing reports and other information, and services related to the
maintenance of shareholder accounts, at an aggregate annual rate of .25 of 1%
of the value of the Fund's Class B shares average daily net assets. Both the
Distributor and Dreyfus may pay one or more service Agents a fee in respect
of the Fund's Class B shares owned by the shareholders with whom the Service
Agent has a servicing relationship or for whom the Service Agent is the
dealer or holder of record. Both the Distributor and Dreyfus determine the
amounts, if any, to be paid to the Service Agents under the Plan and the
basis on which such payments are made. The fees payable under the Plan are
payable without regard to actual expenses incurred.
During the period from January 1, 1994 through August 23, 1994, the
Fund's Service Plan ("prior Class B Service Plan") provided that the Fund pay
Dreyfus Service Corporation at an annual rate of .25 of 1% of the value of
the Fund's Class B shares average daily net assets, for costs and expenses in
connection with advertising, marketing and distributing Class B shares and
for providing certain services to holders of Class B shares. Dreyfus Service
Corporation made payments to one or more Service Agents based on the value of
the Fund's Class B shares owned by clients of the Service Agent.
During the year ended December 31, 1994, $9,841 was charged to the Fund
pursuant to the Plan and $3,823 was charged to the Fund pursuant to the Prior
Class B Service Plan.
(C) Prior to August 24, 1994, certain officers and trustees of the Fund
were "affiliated persons," as defined in the Act, of the Manager and/or
Dreyfus Service Corporation. Each trustee who is not an "affiliated person"
receives an annual fee of $3,000 and an attendance fee of $500 per meeting.
Prior to February 24, 1994, the annual fee was $1,000 and the attendance fee
was $250.

REPORT OF ERNST & YOUNG LLP, INDEPENDENT AUDITORS
SHAREHOLDERS AND BOARD OF TRUSTEES
DREYFUS MUNICIPAL CASH MANAGEMENT PLUS
We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities of
Dreyfus Municipal Cash Management Plus, including the statement of
investments, as of December 31, 1994, and the related statement of operations
for the year then ended, the statement of changes in net assets for each of
the two years in the period then ended, and financial highlights for each of
the years indicated therein. These financial statements and financial
highlights are the responsibility of the Fund's management. Our responsibility
is to express an opinion on these financial statements and financial
highlights based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to
obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements and
financial highlights are free of material misstatement. An audit includes
examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures
in the financial statements. Our procedures included confirmation of
securities owned as of December 31, 1994 by correspondence with the custodian
and brokers. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used
and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the
overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide
a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements and financial highlights
referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial
position of Dreyfus Municipal Cash Management Plus at December 31, 1994, the
results of its operations for the year then ended, the changes in its net
assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, and the financial

MANAGEMENT AGREEMENT
DREYFUS MUNICIPAL CASH MANAGEMENT PLUS
August 24, 1994
The Dreyfus Corporation
200 Park Avenue
New York, New York 10166
Dear Sirs:
The above-named investment company (the "Fund")
herewith confirms its agreement with you as follows:
The Fund desires to employ its capital by investing
and reinvesting the same in investments of the type and in
accordance with the limitations specified in its charter
documents and in its Prospectus and Statement of Additional
Information as from time to time in effect, copies of which have
been or will be submitted to you, and in such manner and to such
extent as from time to time may be approved by the Fund's Board.
The Fund desires to employ you to act as its investment adviser.
In this connection it is understood that from time to
time you will employ or associate with yourself such person or
persons as you may believe to be particularly fitted to assist
you in the performance of this Agreement. Such person or persons
may be officers or employees who are employed by both you and the
Fund. The compensation of such person or persons shall be paid
by you and no obligation may be incurred on the Fund's behalf in
any such respect.
Subject to the supervision and approval of the Fund's
Board, you will provide investment management of the Fund's
portfolio in accordance with the Fund's investment objectives and
policies as stated in its Prospectus and Statement of Additional
Information as from time to time in effect. In connection
therewith, you will obtain and provide investment research and
will supervise the Fund's investments and conduct a continuous
program of investment, evaluation and, if appropriate, sale and
reinvestment of the Fund's assets. You will furnish to the Fund
such statistical information, with respect to the investments
which the Fund may hold or contemplate purchasing, as the Fund
may reasonably request. The Fund wishes to be informed of
important developments materially affecting its portfolio and
shall expect you, on your own initiative, to furnish to the Fund
from time to time such information as you may believe appropriate
for this purpose.
In addition, you will supply office facilities (which
may be in your own offices), data processing services, clerical,
accounting and bookkeeping services, internal auditing and legal
services, internal executive and administrative services, and
stationery and office supplies; prepare reports to the Fund's
stockholders, tax returns, reports to and filings with the
Securities and Exchange Commission and state Blue Sky
authorities; calculate the net asset value of the Fund's shares;
and generally assist in all aspects of the Fund's operations.
You shall have the right, at your expense, to engage other
entities to assist you in performing some or all of the
obligations set forth in this paragraph, provided each such
entity enters into an agreement with you in form and substance
reasonably satisfactory to the Fund. You agree to be liable for
the acts or omissions of each such entity to the same extent as
if you had acted or failed to act under the circumstances.
You shall exercise your best judgment in rendering the
services to be provided to the Fund hereunder and the Fund agrees
as an inducement to your undertaking the same that you shall not
be liable hereunder for any error of judgment or mistake of law
or for any loss suffered by the Fund, provided that nothing
herein shall be deemed to protect or purport to protect you
against any liability to the Fund or to its security holders to
which you would otherwise be subject by reason of willful
misfeasance, bad faith or gross negligence in the performance of
your duties hereunder, or by reason of your reckless disregard of
your obligations and duties hereunder.
In consideration of services rendered pursuant to this
Agreement, the Fund will pay you on the first business day of
each month a fee at the annual rate of .20 of 1% of the value of
the Fund's average daily net assets. Net asset value shall be
computed on such days and at such time or times as described in
the Fund's then-current Prospectus and Statement of Additional
Information. Upon any termination of this Agreement before the
end of any month, the fee for such part of a month shall be pro-
rated according to the proportion which such period bears to the
full monthly period and shall be payable upon the date of
termination of this Agreement.
For the purpose of determining fees payable to you,
the value of the Fund's net assets shall be computed in the
manner specified in the Fund's charter documents for the
computation of the value of the Fund's net assets.
You will bear all expenses in connection with the
performance of your services under this Agreement. All other
expenses to be incurred in the operation of the Fund will be
borne by the Fund, except to the extent specifically assumed by
you. The expenses to be borne by the Fund include, without
limitation, the following: organizational costs, taxes,
interest, loan commitment fees, interest and distributions paid
on securities sold short, brokerage fees and commissions, if any,
fees of Board members who are not your officers, directors or
employees or holders of 5% or more of your outstanding voting
securities, Securities and Exchange Commission fees and state
Blue Sky qualification fees, advisory fees, charges of
custodians, transfer and dividend disbursing agents' fees,
certain insurance premiums, industry association fees, outside
auditing and legal expenses, costs of independent pricing
services, costs of maintaining the Fund's existence, costs
attributable to investor services (including, without limitation,
telephone and personnel expenses), costs of preparing and
printing prospectuses and statements of additional information
for regulatory purposes and for distribution to existing
stockholders, costs of stockholders' reports and meetings, and
any extraordinary expenses.
If in any fiscal year the aggregate expenses of the
Fund (including fees pursuant to this Agreement, but excluding
interest, taxes, brokerage and, with the prior written consent of
the necessary state securities commissions, extraordinary
expenses) exceed the expense limitation of any state having
jurisdiction over the Fund, the Fund may deduct from the fees to
be paid hereunder, or you will bear, such excess expense to the
extent required by state law. Your obligation pursuant hereto
will be limited to the amount of your fees hereunder. Such
deduction or payment, if any, will be estimated daily, and
reconciled and effected or paid, as the case may be, on a monthly
basis.
The Fund understands that you now act, and that from
time to time hereafter you may act, as investment adviser to one
or more other investment companies and fiduciary or other managed
accounts, and the Fund has no objection to your so acting,
provided that when the purchase or sale of securities of the same
issuer is suitable for the investment objectives of two or more
companies or accounts managed by you which have available funds
for investment, the available securities will be allocated in a
manner believed by you to be equitable to each company or
account. It is recognized that in some cases this procedure may
adversely affect the price paid or received by the Fund or the
size of the position obtainable for or disposed of by the Fund.
In addition, it is understood that the persons
employed by you to assist in the performance of your duties
hereunder will not devote their full time to such service and
nothing contained herein shall be deemed to limit or restrict
your right or the right of any of your affiliates to engage in
and devote time and attention to other businesses or to render
services of whatever kind or nature.
You shall not be liable for any error of judgment or
mistake of law or for any loss suffered by the Fund in connection
with the matters to which this Agreement relates, except for a
loss resulting from willful misfeasance, bad faith or gross
negligence on your part in the performance of your duties or from
reckless disregard by you of your obligations and duties under
this Agreement. Any person, even though also your officer,
director, partner, employee or agent, who may be or become an
officer, Board member, employee or agent of the Fund, shall be
deemed, when rendering services to the Fund or acting on any
business of the Fund, to be rendering such services to or acting
solely for the Fund and not as your officer, director, partner,
employee or agent or one under your control or direction even
though paid by you.
This Agreement shall continue until June 11, 1995, and
thereafter shall continue automatically for successive annual
periods ending on June 11th of each year, provided such
continuance is specifically approved at least annually by (i) the
Fund's Board or (ii) vote of a majority (as defined in the
Investment Company Act of 1940) of the Fund's outstanding voting
securities, provided that in either event its continuance also is
approved by a majority of the Fund's Board members who are not
"interested persons" (as defined in said Act) of any party to
this Agreement, by vote cast in person at a meeting called for
the purpose of voting on such approval. This Agreement is
terminable without penalty, on 60 days' notice, by the Fund's
Board or by vote of holders of a majority of the Fund's shares
or, upon not less than 90 days' notice, by you. This Agreement
also will terminate automatically in the event of its assignment
(as defined in said Act).
The Fund recognizes that from time to time your
directors, officers and employees may serve as directors,
trustees, partners, officers and employees of other corporations,
business trusts, partnerships or other entities (including other
investment companies) and that such other entities may include
the name "Dreyfus" as part of their name, and that your
corporation or its affiliates may enter into investment advisory
or other agreements with such other entities. If you cease to
act as the Fund's investment adviser, the Fund agrees that, at
your request, the Fund will take all necessary action to change
the name of the Fund to a name not including "Dreyfus" in any
form or combination of words.
This Agreement has been executed on behalf of the Fund
by the undersigned officer of the Fund in his capacity as an
officer of the Fund. The obligations of this Agreement shall
only be binding upon the assets and property of the Fund and
shall not be binding upon any Board member, officer or
shareholder of the Fund individually.
If the foregoing is in accordance with your
understanding, will you kindly so indicate by signing and
returning to us the enclosed copy hereof.
Very truly yours,

Dear Sirs:
This is to confirm that, in consideration of the agree-
ments hereinafter contained, the above-named investment company
(the "Fund") has agreed that you shall be, for the period of
this agreement, the distributor of (a) shares of each Series of
the Fund set forth on Exhibit A hereto, as such Exhibit may be
revised from time to time (each, a "Series") or (b) if no Series
are set forth on such Exhibit, shares of the Fund. For purposes
of this agreement the term "Shares" shall mean the authorized
shares of the relevant Series, if any, and otherwise shall mean
the Fund's authorized shares.
1. Services as Distributor
1.1 You will act as agent for the distribution of
Shares covered by, and in accordance with, the registration
statement and prospectus then in effect under the Securities Act
of 1933, as amended, and will transmit promptly any orders
received by you for purchase or redemption of Shares to the
Transfer and Dividend Disbursing Agent for the Fund of which the
Fund has notified you in writing.
1.2 You agree to use your best efforts to solicit
orders for the sale of Shares. It is contemplated that you will
enter into sales or servicing agreements with securities
dealers, financial institutions and other industry
professionals, such as investment advisers, accountants and
estate planning firms, and in so doing you will act only on your
own behalf as principal.
1.3 You shall act as distributor of Shares in
compliance with all applicable laws, rules and regulations,
including, without limitation, all rules and regulations made or
adopted pursuant to the Investment Company Act of 1940, as
amended, by the Securities and Exchange Commission or any
securities association registered under the Securities Exchange
Act of 1934, as amended.
1.4 Whenever in their judgment such action is
warranted by market, economic or political conditions, or by
abnormal circumstances of any kind, the Fund's officers may
decline to accept any orders for, or make any sales of, any
Shares until such time as they deem it advisable to accept such
orders and to make such sales and the Fund shall advise you
promptly of such determination.
1.5 The Fund agrees to pay all costs and expenses in
connection with the registration of Shares under the Securities
Act of 1933, as amended, and all expenses in connection with
maintaining facilities for the issue and transfer of Shares and
for supplying information, prices and other data to be furnished
by the Fund hereunder, and all expenses in connection with the
preparation and printing of the Fund's prospectuses and
statements of additional information for regulatory purposes and
for distribution to shareholders; provided however, that nothing
contained herein shall be deemed to require the Fund to pay any
of the costs of advertising the sale of Shares.
1.6 The Fund agrees to execute any and all documents
and to furnish any and all information and otherwise to take all
actions which may be reasonably necessary in the discretion of
the Fund's officers in connection with the qualification of
Shares for sale in such states as you may designate to the Fund
and the Fund may approve, and the Fund agrees to pay all
expenses which may be incurred in connection with such
qualification. You shall pay all expenses connected with your
own qualification as a dealer under state or Federal laws and,
except as otherwise specifically provided in this agreement, all
other expenses incurred by you in connection with the sale of
Shares as contemplated in this agreement.
1.7 The Fund shall furnish you from time to time, for
use in connection with the sale of Shares, such information with
respect to the Fund or any relevant Series and the Shares as you
may reasonably request, all of which shall be signed by one or
more of the Fund's duly authorized officers; and the Fund
warrants that the statements contained in any such information,
when so signed by the Fund's officers, shall be true and
correct. The Fund also shall furnish you upon request with:
(a) semi-annual reports and annual audited reports of the Fund's
books and accounts made by independent public accountants
regularly retained by the Fund, (b) quarterly earnings
statements prepared by the Fund, (c) a monthly itemized list of
the securities in the Fund's or, if applicable, each Series'
portfolio, (d) monthly balance sheets as soon as practicable
after the end of each month, and (e) from time to time such
additional information regarding the Fund's financial condition
as you may reasonably request.
1.8 The Fund represents to you that all registration
statements and prospectuses filed by the Fund with the Securi-
ties and Exchange Commission under the Securities Act of 1933,
as amended, and under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as
amended, with respect to the Shares have been carefully prepared
in conformity with the requirements of said Acts and rules and
regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission there-
under. As used in this agreement the terms "registration state-
ment" and "prospectus" shall mean any registration statement and
prospectus, including the statement of additional information
incorporated by reference therein, filed with the Securities and
Exchange Commission and any amendments and supplements thereto
which at any time shall have been filed with said Commission.
The Fund represents and warrants to you that any registration
statement and prospectus, when such registration statement
becomes effective, will contain all statements required to be
stated therein in conformity with said Acts and the rules and
regulations of said Commission; that all statements of fact
contained in any such registration statement and prospectus will
be true and correct when such registration statement becomes
effective; and that neither any registration statement nor any
prospectus when such registration statement becomes effective
will include an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to
state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary
to make the statements therein not misleading. The Fund may but
shall not be obligated to propose from time to time such amend-
ment or amendments to any registration statement and such
supplement or supplements to any prospectus as, in the light of
future developments, may, in the opinion of the Fund's counsel,
be necessary or advisable. If the Fund shall not propose such
amendment or amendments and/or supplement or supplements within
fifteen days after receipt by the Fund of a written request from
you to do so, you may, at your option, terminate this agreement
or decline to make offers of the Fund's securities until such
amendments are made. The Fund shall not file any amendment to
any registration statement or supplement to any prospectus
without giving you reasonable notice thereof in advance;
provided, however, that nothing contained in this agreement
shall in any way limit the Fund's right to file at any time such
amendments to any registration statement and/or supplements to
any prospectus, of whatever character, as the Fund may deem
advisable, such right being in all respects absolute and
unconditional.
1.9 The Fund authorizes you to use any prospectus in
the form furnished to you from time to time, in connection with
the sale of Shares. The Fund agrees to indemnify, defend and
hold you, your several officers and directors, and any person
who controls you within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securi-
ties Act of 1933, as amended, free and harmless from and against
any and all claims, demands, liabilities and expenses (including
the cost of investigating or defending such claims, demands or
liabilities and any counsel fees incurred in connection there-
with) which you, your officers and directors, or any such con-
trolling person, may incur under the Securities Act of 1933, as
amended, or under common law or otherwise, arising out of or
based upon any untrue statement, or alleged untrue statement, of
a material fact contained in any registration statement or any
prospectus or arising out of or based upon any omission, or
alleged omission, to state a material fact required to be stated
in either any registration statement or any prospectus or
necessary to make the statements in either thereof not
misleading; provided, however, that the Fund's agreement to
indemnify you, your officers or directors, and any such control-
ling person shall not be deemed to cover any claims, demands,
liabilities or expenses arising out of any untrue statement or
alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission made in
any registration statement or prospectus in reliance upon and in
conformity with written information furnished to the Fund by you
specifically for use in the preparation thereof. The Fund's
agreement to indemnify you, your officers and directors, and any
such controlling person, as aforesaid, is expressly conditioned
upon the Fund's being notified of any action brought against
you, your officers or directors, or any such controlling person,
such notification to be given by letter or by telegram addressed
to the Fund at its address set forth above within ten days after
the summons or other first legal process shall have been served.
The failure so to notify the Fund of any such action shall not
relieve the Fund from any liability which the Fund may have to
the person against whom such action is brought by reason of any
such untrue, or alleged untrue, statement or omission, or
alleged omission, otherwise than on account of the Fund's
indemnity agreement contained in this paragraph 1.9. The Fund
will be entitled to assume the defense of any suit brought to
enforce any such claim, demand or liability, but, in such case,
such defense shall be conducted by counsel of good standing
chosen by the Fund and approved by you. In the event the Fund
elects to assume the defense of any such suit and retain counsel
of good standing approved by you, the defendant or defendants in
such suit shall bear the fees and expenses of any additional
counsel retained by any of them; but in case the Fund does not
elect to assume the defense of any such suit, or in case you do
not approve of counsel chosen by the Fund, the Fund will
reimburse you, your officers and directors, or the controlling
person or persons named as defendant or defendants in such suit,
for the fees and expenses of any counsel retained by you or
them. The Fund's indemnification agreement contained in this
paragraph 1.9 and the Fund's representations and warranties in
this agreement shall remain operative and in full force and
effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of
you, your officers and directors, or any controlling person, and
shall survive the delivery of any Shares. This agreement of
indemnity will inure exclusively to your benefit, to the benefit
of your several officers and directors, and their respective
estates, and to the benefit of any controlling persons and their
successors. The Fund agrees promptly to notify you of the
commencement of any litigation or proceedings against the Fund
or any of its officers or Board members in connection with the
issue and sale of Shares.
1.10 You agree to indemnify, defend and hold the Fund,
its several officers and Board members, and any person who con-
trols the Fund within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securi-
ties Act of 1933, as amended, free and harmless from and against
any and all claims, demands, liabilities and expenses (including
the cost of investigating or defending such claims, demands or
liabilities and any counsel fees incurred in connection there-
with) which the Fund, its officers or Board members, or any such
controlling person, may incur under the Securities Act of 1933,
as amended, or under common law or otherwise, but only to the
extent that such liability or expense incurred by the Fund, its
officers or Board members, or such controlling person resulting
from such claims or demands, shall arise out of or be based upon
any untrue, or alleged untrue, statement of a material fact
contained in information furnished in writing by you to the Fund
specifically for use in the Fund's registration statement and
used in the answers to any of the items of the registration
statement or in the corresponding statements made in the pro-
spectus, or shall arise out of or be based upon any omission, or
alleged omission, to state a material fact in connection with
such information furnished in writing by you to the Fund and
required to be stated in such answers or necessary to make such
information not misleading. Your agreement to indemnify the
Fund, its officers and Board members, and any such controlling
person, as aforesaid, is expressly conditioned upon your being
notified of any action brought against the Fund, its officers or
Board members, or any such controlling person, such notification
to be given by letter or telegram addressed to you at your
address set forth above within ten days after the summons or
other first legal process shall have been served. You shall
have the right to control the defense of such action, with
counsel of your own choosing, satisfactory to the Fund, if such
action is based solely upon such alleged misstatement or
omission on your part, and in any other event the Fund, its
officers or Board members, or such controlling person shall each
have the right to participate in the defense or preparation of
the defense of any such action. The failure so to notify you of
any such action shall not relieve you from any liability which
you may have to the Fund, its officers or Board members, or to
such controlling person by reason of any such untrue, or alleged
untrue, statement or omission, or alleged omission, otherwise
than on account of your indemnity agreement contained in this
paragraph 1.10. This agreement of indemnity will inure
exclusively to the Fund's benefit, to the benefit of the Fund's
officers and Board members, and their respective estates, and to
the benefit of any controlling persons and their successors.
You agree promptly to notify the Fund of the commencement of any
litigation or proceedings against you or any of your officers or
directors in connection with the issue and sale of Shares.
1.11 No Shares shall be offered by either you or the
Fund under any of the provisions of this agreement and no orders
for the purchase or sale of such Shares hereunder shall be
accepted by the Fund if and so long as the effectiveness of the
registration statement then in effect or any necessary amend-
ments thereto shall be suspended under any of the provisions of
the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or if and so long as a
current prospectus as required by Section 10 of said Act, as
amended, is not on file with the Securities and Exchange
Commission; provided, however, that nothing contained in this
paragraph 1.11 shall in any way restrict or have an application
to or bearing upon the Fund's obligation to repurchase any
Shares from any shareholder in accordance with the provisions of
the Fund's prospectus or charter documents.
1.12 The Fund agrees to advise you immediately in
writing:
(a) of any request by the Securities and Exchange
Commission for amendments to the registration statement
or prospectus then in effect or for additional
information;
(b) in the event of the issuance by the Securities
and Exchange Commission of any stop order suspending
the effectiveness of the registration statement or pro-
spectus then in effect or the initiation of any
proceeding for that purpose;
(c) of the happening of any event which makes
untrue any statement of a material fact made in the
registration statement or prospectus then in effect or
which requires the making of a change in such registra-
tion statement or prospectus in order to make the
statements therein not misleading; and
(d) of all actions of the Securities and
Exchange Commission with respect to any amendments to
any registration statement or prospectus which may from
time to time be filed with the Securities and Exchange
Commission.
2. Offering Price
Shares of any class of the Fund offered for sale by you
shall be offered for sale at a price per share (the "offering
price") approximately equal to (a) their net asset value
(determined in the manner set forth in the Fund's charter
documents) plus (b) a sales charge, if any and except to those
persons set forth in the then-current prospectus, which shall be
the percentage of the offering price of such Shares as set forth
in the Fund's then-current prospectus. The offering price, if
not an exact multiple of one cent, shall be adjusted to the
nearest cent. In addition, Shares of any class of the Fund
offered for sale by you may be subject to a contingent deferred
sales charge as set forth in the Fund's then-current prospectus.
You shall be entitled to receive any sales charge or contingent
deferred sales charge in respect of the Shares. Any payments to
dealers shall be governed by a separate agreement between you
and such dealer and the Fund's then-current prospectus.
3. Term
This agreement shall continue until the date (the
"Reapproval Date") set forth on Exhibit A hereto (and, if the
Fund has Series, a separate Reapproval Date shall be specified
on Exhibit A for each Series), and thereafter shall continue
automatically for successive annual periods ending on the day
(the "Reapproval Day") of each year set forth on Exhibit A
hereto, provided such continuance is specifically approved at
least annually by (i) the Fund's Board or (ii) vote of a
majority (as defined in the Investment Company Act of 1940) of
the Shares of the Fund or the relevant Series, as the case may
be, provided that in either event its continuance also is
approved by a majority of the Board members who are not
"interested persons" (as defined in said Act) of any party to
this agreement, by vote cast in person at a meeting called for
the purpose of voting on such approval. This agreement is
terminable without penalty, on 60 days' notice, by vote of
holders of a majority of the Fund's or, as to any relevant
Series, such Series' outstanding voting securities or by the
Fund's Board as to the Fund or the relevant Series, as the case
may be. This agreement is terminable by you, upon 270 days'
notice, effective on or after the fifth anniversary of the date
hereof. This agreement also will terminate automatically, as to
the Fund or relevant Series, as the case may be, in the event of
its assignment (as defined in said Act).
4. Exclusivity
So long as you act as the distributor of Shares, you
shall not perform any services for any entity other than
investment companies advised or administered by The Dreyfus
Corporation. The Fund acknowledges that the persons employed by
you to assist in the performance of your duties under this
agreement may not devote their full time to such service and
nothing contained in this agreement shall be deemed to limit or
restrict your or any of your affiliates right to engage in and
devote time and attention to other businesses or to render
services of whatever kind or nature.
5. Miscellaneous
This agreement has been executed on behalf of the Fund
by the undersigned officer of the Fund in his capacity as an
officer of the Fund. The obligations of this agreement shall
only be binding upon the assets and property of the Fund and
shall not be binding upon any Board member, officer or
shareholder of the Fund individually.
Please confirm that the foregoing is in accordance with

DREYFUS MUNICIPAL CASH MANAGEMENT PLUS
SHAREHOLDER SERVICES PLAN
Introduction: It has been proposed that the above-
captioned investment company (the "Fund") adopt a Shareholder
Services Plan (the "Plan") under which the Fund would reimburse
Dreyfus Service Corporation ("DSC") for certain allocated
expenses of providing personal services and/or maintaining
shareholder accounts to (a) shareholders of each series of the
Fund or class of Fund shares set forth on Exhibit A hereto, as
such Exhibit may be revised from time to time, or (b) if no
series or classes are set forth on such Exhibit, shareholders of
the Fund. The Plan is not to be adopted pursuant to Rule 12b-1
under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "Act"),
and the fee under the Plan is intended to be a "service fee" as
defined in Article III, Section 26 (a "Service Fee"), of the NASD
Rules of Fair Practice (the "NASD Rules").
The Fund's Board, in considering whether the Fund
should implement a written plan, has requested and evaluated such
information as it deemed necessary to an informed determination
as to whether a written plan should be implemented and has
considered such pertinent factors as it deemed necessary to form
the basis for a decision to use Fund assets for such purposes.
In voting to approve the implementation of such a plan,
the Board has concluded, in the exercise of its reasonable
business judgment and in light of applicable fiduciary duties,
that there is a reasonable likelihood that the plan set forth
below will benefit the Fund and its shareholders.
The Plan: The material aspects of this Plan are as
follows:
1. The Fund shall reimburse DSC an amount not to
exceed an annual rate of .25 of 1% of the value of the Fund's
average daily net assets for its allocated expenses of providing
personal services to shareholders and/or maintaining shareholder
accounts; provided that, at no time, shall the amount paid to DSC
under this Plan, together with amounts otherwise paid by the
Fund, or each series or class identified on Exhibit A, as a
Service Fee under the NASD Rules, exceed the maximum amount then
payable under the NASD Rules as a Service Fee. The amount of
such reimbursement shall be based on an expense allocation
methodology prepared by DSC annually and approved by the Fund's
Board or on any other basis from time to time deemed reasonable
by the Fund's Board.
2. For the purposes of determining the fees payable
under this Plan, the value of the net assets of the Fund or the
net assets attributable to each series or class of Fund shares
identified on Exhibit A, shall be computed in the manner
specified in the Fund's charter documents for the computation of
the value of the Fund's net assets.
3. The Board shall be provided, at least quarterly,
with a written report of all amounts expended pursuant to this
Plan. The report shall state the purpose for which the amounts
were expended.
4. This Plan will become effective immediately upon
approval by a majority of the Board members, including a majority
of the Board members who are not "interested persons" (as defined
in the Act) of the Fund and have no direct or indirect financial
interest in the operation of this Plan or in any agreements
entered into in connection with this Plan, pursuant to a vote
cast in person at a meeting called for the purpose of voting on
the approval of this Plan.
5. This Plan shall continue for a period of one year
from its effective date, unless earlier terminated in accordance
with its terms, and thereafter shall continue automatically for
successive annual periods, provided such continuance is approved
at least annually in the manner provided in paragraph 4 hereof.
6. This Plan may be amended at any time by the Board,
provided that any material amendments of the terms of this Plan
shall become effective only upon approval as provided in
paragraph 4 hereof.
7. This Plan is terminable without penalty at any
time by vote of a majority of the Board members who are not
"interested persons" (as defined in the Act) of the Fund and have
no direct or indirect financial interest in the operation of this
Plan or in any agreements entered into in connection with this
Plan.
8. The obligations hereunder and under any related
Plan agreement shall only be binding upon the assets and property
of the Fund and shall not be binding upon any Trustee, officer or
shareholder of the Fund individually.

We consent to the reference to our firm under the captions "Condensed

DREYFUS MUNICIPAL CASH MANAGEMENT PLUS
SERVICE PLAN
Introduction: It has been proposed that the above-captioned
investment company (the "Fund") adopt a Service Plan (the "Plan")
relating to its Class B shares in accordance with Rule 12b-1,
promulgated under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended
(the "Act"). Under the Plan, the Fund would (a) reimburse the
Fund's distributor (the "Distributor") for distributing the
Fund's Class B shares (the payments in this clause (a) being
referred to as "Distributor Payments") and (b) pay The Dreyfus
Corporation, Dreyfus Service Corporation and any affiliate of
either of them (collectively, "Dreyfus") for advertising and
marketing relating to the Fund's Class B shares and for providing
certain services relating to Class B shareholder accounts, such
as answering shareholder inquiries regarding the Fund and
providing reports and other information, and services related to
the maintenance of shareholder accounts ("Servicing") (the
payments in this clause (b) being referred to as "Dreyfus
Payments"). If this proposal is to be implemented, the Act and
said Rule 12b-1 require that a written plan describing all
material aspects of the proposed financing be adopted by the
Fund.
The Fund's Board, in considering whether the Fund should
implement a written plan, has requested and evaluated such
information as it deemed necessary to an informed determination
as to whether a written plan should be implemented and has
considered such pertinent factors as it deemed necessary to form
the basis for a decision to use assets attributable to the Fund's
Class B shares for such purposes.
In voting to approve the implementation of such a plan, the
Board members have concluded, in the exercise of their reasonable
business judgment and in light of their respective fiduciary
duties, that there is a reasonable likelihood that the plan set
forth below will benefit the Fund and holders of its Class B
shares.
The Plan: The material aspects of this Plan are as follows:
1. (a) The aggregate annual fee the Fund may pay under
this Plan for Distributor Payments and Dreyfus Payments is .25 of
1% of the value of the Fund's average daily net assets
attributable to Class B (the "Aggregate Amount").
(b) The Fund shall reimburse the Distributor in
respect of Distributor Payments an amount not to exceed an annual
rate of .25 of 1% of the value of the average daily net assets
attributable to Class B for such year (the "Distributor Amount").
(c) The Fund shall pay Dreyfus in respect of Dreyfus
Payments an annual fee equal to the difference between the
Aggregate Amount and the Distributor Amount for such year.
(d) Each of the Distributor and Dreyfus may pay one or
more securities dealers, financial institutions (which may
include banks) or other industry professionals, such as
investment advisers, accountants and estate planning firms
(severally, a "Service Agent"), a fee in respect of the Fund's
Class B shares owned by investors with whom the Service Agent has
a Servicing relationship or for whom the Service Agent is the
dealer or holder of record. Each of the Distributor and Dreyfus
shall determine the amounts to be paid to the Service Agents to
which it will make payments under this Plan and the basis on
which such payments will be made. Payments to a Service Agent
are subject to compliance by the Service Agent with the terms of
any related Plan agreement between the Service Agent and the
Distributor or Dreyfus, as the case may be. The fee payable for
Servicing is intended to be a "service fee" as defined in Article
III, Section 26 of the NASD Rules of Fair Practice.
2. For the purposes of determining the fees payable under
this Plan, the value of the Fund's net assets attributable to
Class B shall be computed in the manner specified in the Fund's
charter documents as then in effect for the computation of the
value of the Fund's net assets attributable to such Class.
3. The Fund's Board shall be provided, at least quarterly,
with a written report of all amounts expended pursuant to this
Plan. The report shall state the purpose for which the amounts
were expended.
4. This Plan will become effective upon the later to occur
of (i) the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the
Amended and Restated Agreement and Plan of Merger dated as of
December 5, 1993 by and among Mellon Bank Corporation, Mellon
Bank, N.A., XYZ Sub Corporation and The Dreyfus Corporation or
(ii) approval by (a) holders of a majority of the Fund's
outstanding Class B shares, and (b) a majority of the Board
members, including a majority of the Board members who are not
"interested persons" (as defined in the Act) of the Fund and have
no direct or indirect financial interest in the operation of this
Plan or in any agreements entered into in connection with this
Plan, pursuant to a vote cast in person at a meeting called for
the purpose of voting on the approval of this Plan.
5. This Plan shall continue for a period of one year from
its effective date, unless earlier terminated in accordance with
its terms, and thereafter shall continue automatically for
successive annual periods, provided such continuance is approved
at least annually in the manner provided in paragraph 4(b)
hereof.
6. This Plan may be amended at any time by the Fund's
Board, provided that (a) any amendment to increase materially the
costs which the Fund may bear pursuant to this Plan shall be
effective only upon approval by a vote of the holders of a
majority of the Fund's outstanding Class B shares, and (b) any
material amendments of the terms of this Plan shall become
effective only upon approval as provided in paragraph 4(b)
hereof.
7. This Plan is terminable without penalty at any time by
(a) vote of a majority of the Board members who are not
"interested persons" (as defined in the Act) of the Fund and have
no direct or indirect financial interest in the operation of this
Plan or in any agreements entered into in connection with this
Plan, or (b) vote of the holders of a majority of the Fund's
outstanding Class B shares.
8. The obligations hereunder and under any related Plan
agreement shall only be binding upon the assets and property of
the Fund and shall not be binding upon any Board member, officer
or shareholder of the Fund individually.
