WHAT'S RIGHT WITH THIS MARKET
The stock market has been on a roller coaster of late, and that naturally makes
people uneasy. But if you're a long-term investor, then I would argue that there
are a lot more good things influencing the market than bad things.
True, U.S. corporate earnings are flattening out, and that's putting a damper on
the stock market. When you buy a stock, you're buying a future stream of
dividends as well as a stronger company because most of the profits are being
reinvested. After double-digit growth during much of the 1990s, profits in 1998
grew in the low single digits. A major reason why profits are sluggish is the
economic and currency turmoil in Asia, which hurts U.S. companies doing business
there.
Another reason for sluggish profit growth is the great job that Corporate
America has done to become more efficient. After years of cost-cutting, there
isn't much cutting left to do. To enhance profits, companies must either boost
prices or sell more products and services. But with inflation at virtually zero,
it's tough to raise prices. So, profit growth must come through increased unit
volume.
And that's where the good news is likely to begin. Even with the dampening
effects of Asia, the U.S. economy is still basically healthy, making it possible
for U.S. corporations to sell more products and services here at home. True,
we're losing business in Asia, because the dollar is so strong compared to their
currencies. But what we're losing in Asia, we're gaining in Europe, as that
region of the world begins to enjoy U.S.-style prosperity.
Asia has helped keep inflation worries away, and that has kept interest rates
low. Recently, the 30-year Treasury bond yield reached its lowest level ever, as
global investors buy our securities for the greatest safety and liquidity.
Partly because of our low inflation environment, worldwide demand for U.S.
stocks and bonds continues to be strong.
Even if 1999 turns out to be a mediocre year for stocks, let's not feel too
sorry for ourselves. The Dow Jones Industrial Average has more than doubled
since 1995 and virtually tripled since the beginning of this decade. Where was
the Dow in 1982? 800! Has the value of your house gone up by a factor of ten in
fifteen years? Probably not. The point is that markets do not go up in a
straight line, and there is bound to be volatility. But if you're an investor
for the long term, then you should be able to step back and see the good in this
market.

ECONOMIC OUTLOOK
A summary of economic outlook as provided by Larry Hill, IAI's Chief Fixed
Income Officer, follows.
Robust economic growth and slowing inflationary trends sent analysts to their
history books to identify when past economic data was as positive as recent
statistics. Economic growth in 1998 was at its fastest pace in 15 years while
the inflation rate increased at its lowest rate since 1961. These trends have
carried over to the first quarter. With jobs plentiful and consumers
experiencing favorable real wage increases, consumer confidence is high.
Combined with tax refunds and year-end incentive pay to produce, this is one of
the strongest periods for retail sales in the last 10 years.
During previous economic expansions, conventional wisdom linked strong demand
growth with rising inflation. This normally provoked the Federal Reserve to
tighten monetary policy to reduce demand and prevent an acceleration of
inflation. However, this time even the Fed seems to be skeptical of that
linkage. In a speech in early April, Federal Reserve Vice Chair Alice Rivlin
stated:
"Tight labor markets have long been seen as harbingers of inflation (as higher
wages led to higher prices) and lower productivity (as less skilled and
experienced workers were drawn into the labor market). But recent experience
suggests that, at least in the context of intense global and domestic
competitiveness, as well as a continuing revolution in computers and
telecommunications, tight labor markets can provide incentives for managerial
innovation, skills acquisition and higher productivity, thereby leading to
higher growth with little inflation."
During the quarter, the Fed left rates unchanged and signaled they were
maintaining a neutral policy stance. Fears of a possible tightening, however,
negatively impacted financial markets in February. By quarter-end the equity
market had recovered to push through the 10,000 mark on the Dow and interest
rates, following a steep rise in February, stabilized.
Ms. Rivlin mentioned several of the factors that have allowed strong U.S. growth
with low inflation. While our economy is experiencing good times, weakness
persists in Asia, Russia and Latin America and growth has slowed in Europe. This
has contributed to declining commodity and input prices as global demand remains
soft. The only commodity showing strength has been oil, driven by production
cut-backs by oil producing countries. Another factor favoring low inflation has
been the strength of the dollar. Real interest rate differentials between the
U.S. and our major trading partners widened in favor of the dollar during the
quarter. Strength in the dollar makes imports less expensive, effectively
eliminating the ability of U.S. producers to raise prices.
We expect economic momentum to continue throughout the year. However, the pace
of the expansion will moderate toward a real GDP growth rate of 3%. Over the
past three years the U.S. economy has been unusually robust in the fourth and
first quarters, only to slow significantly in the second and third quarters. The
increase in oil prices, if sustained, will help slow the economy by cutting into
consumers' disposable income. Finally, the rise in interest rates during the
quarter will slow economic growth.

TECHNOLOGY SERVICES 12.3%

* PERCENTAGE OF NET ASSETS AS OF 3/31/99
HOW HAS THE FUND PERFORMED?
The year ended March 31, 1999 was dismal for most of the small-cap sector. The
IAI Capital Appreciation Fund declined (19.11%) during the year, trailing the
(8.22%) loss tallied by its benchmark, the Russell 2500 Growth Index. The S&P
500 Index gained 18.45% for the same period.
WHICH HOLDINGS WERE PARTICULARLY SUCCESSFUL FOR THE FUND? WERE THERE ANY
DISAPPOINTMENTS?
For the year, Nielsen Media Research (7.35%)* was the biggest contributor to
performance. The Fund also benefited from Catalina Marketing (5.01%)*. Investors
are gaining comfort that Catalina's pharmacy check-out coupon printing business
will provide a solid complement to its core grocery check-out coupon printing
division. The biggest disappointments were Respironics (3.49%)* and Mentor
(2.47%)*.
WERE THERE ANY SIGNIFICANT CHANGES?
The volatile market has presented many opportunities to keep the portfolio
refreshed by trimming some holdings and adding to others. We took advantage of a
spike up in the price of Artesyn Technologies (0.82%)* during January to sell
the bulk of our position before it "round-tripped" back to its starting price.
We initiated a position in DII Group (0.31%)*, believing that this contract
electronics manufacturer is on the verge of an earnings break-out. And we added
a new position in Hyperion Solutions (1.61%)*, believing that it has a great
opportunity to become the dominant player in the mushrooming "business
intelligence" software industry.
CAN YOU POINT TO ANY SPECIFIC MARKET FACTORS THAT INFLUENCED THE FUND'S
PERFORMANCE?
Prevailing sentiment seems to be that there is no catalyst forthcoming to boost
the small-caps during the later stages of this bull market. Further, the view is
that small-caps will fare poorly in a market downturn, due to their poor
liquidity and generally greater economic sensitivity. Thus, money flows are
moving decisively away from the small-cap sector, leading to an environment
where there are plenty of sellers and relatively few buyers.
Within the small-cap sector, the only stocks which have performed well are those
with favorable price momentum, positive earnings revisions, and big average
daily trading volumes. Everything else is just withering away, totally
neglected. Earnings-based valuation appears to have lost any relevance.
WHAT IS YOUR OUTLOOK FOR THE FUND?
The recent past has been grim, but it is always darkest before dawn. The
environment is ripe for a change, but it is not clear what will be the catalyst.
Valuation measures suggest that when the change comes, the small-cap sector
should outperform strongly. As always, we are sticking resolutely to our
disciplines.

HOW HAS THE FUND PERFORMED?
The IAI Emerging Growth Fund gained 3.56% for the year ended March 31, 1999,
despite a tough market backdrop for small cap stocks. This compares to (8.22%)
and 18.45% for the Russell 2500 Growth and S&P 500 indices, respectively.
WHICH HOLDINGS WERE PARTICULARLY SUCCESSFUL FOR THE FUND? WERE THERE ANY
DISAPPOINTMENTS?
The strong results in the year can largely be attributed to one of our long-time
holdings in Tut Systems (29.84%)*. Tut, a provider of high-speed access
solutions for the communications market, sold stock in an initial public
offering and was well received by the market. Other strong contributors to
performance in the year were Knight/Trimark Group (1.86%)*, a financial services
firm that focuses on securities trading, and Abacus Direct (1.23%)*, a
specialized information services provider for the direct marketing industry.
Sipex (sold), within the technology sector, and Total Renal Care (sold), within
health care, were two of the biggest disappointments and were eliminated from
the Fund.
WERE THERE ANY SIGNIFICANT CHANGES?
In addition to Knight/Trimark Group, several other stocks were added during the
year that immediately contributed significantly to performance. These included
Modem Media Poppe Tyson (0.68%)*, Critical Path (1.13%)*, and Ziff-Davis-ZDNet
(0.90%)*.
The Fund's portfolio of restricted securities represents 41.2% of net assets. As
a result of the increase in valuation of certain restricted securities, Emerging
Growth Fund's net assets significantly exceed the15% limitation in illiquid
restricted securities.
CAN YOU POINT TO ANY SPECIFIC MARKET FACTORS THAT INFLUENCED THE FUND'S
PERFORMANCE?
The small cap market continues to significantly lag the large cap market. The
S&P 500 Index, a measure of large cap performance, rose 18.45% during the year,
outpacing the widely recognized small cap index, the Russell 2000 Index, which
declined (16.26%).
WHAT IS YOUR OUTLOOK FOR THE FUND?
Due to the performance divergence between large cap stocks and small caps, we
think there is tremendous value in small cap stocks. But what continues to be
unknown is what event will unlock the value from this depressed asset class. We
continue to focus on owning the strongest companies with attractive growth
prospects and believe that when money returns to the small cap asset class, the
Fund will be well positioned to deliver strong returns.
The Fund is actively seeking liquidation opportunities which would reduce the
percentage of the Fund's investment portfolio comprised of restricted
securities. The Fund's ability to liquidate such securities may be limited by
legal or contractual provisions. The Fund intends to pursue such opportunities
when deemed in the best interest of the shareholders.

HOW HAS THE FUND PERFORMED?
The market, as measured by the S&P 500 Index, continued its winning ways during
the year ended March 31, 1999, returning 18.45% including dividends. The IAI
Growth Fund also generated positive absolute returns, rising 14.94%.
WHICH HOLDINGS WERE PARTICULARLY SUCCESSFUL FOR THE FUND? WERE THERE ANY
DISAPPOINTMENTS?
Performance was helped by our overweight position in the technology sector.
America Online (1.88%)*, Microsoft (4.02%*), and Amdocs (1.51%)* were the three
largest contributors to performance. The seemingly unquenchable thirst for the
Internet drove AOL, while a more positive regulatory outlook and robust business
conditions in the billing sector drove Microsoft and Amdocs, respectively. The
Fund suffered poor performance from a few large holdings, notably Bergen
Brunswig (2.66%)*, Cendant (3.22%)*, and Waste Management (3.40%)*. These stocks
have taken a breather so far in 1999 after delivering strong performance in the
fourth quarter of 1998.
WERE THERE ANY SIGNIFICANT CHANGES?
Transaction activity was normal as we initiated positions in three companies:
Comverse Technology (1.10%)*, Patterson Dental (3.21%)*, and Uniphase (sold). A
number of positions were eliminated including AirTouch Communications (sold),
Century Telephone (sold), Citigroup (sold), Dollar General (sold), Sysco (sold),
and Uniphase (sold) (it increased over 40% in just six weeks).
CAN YOU POINT TO ANY SPECIFIC MARKET FACTORS THAT INFLUENCED THE FUND'S
PERFORMANCE?
We remain concerned about how narrow the market has been. Near term performance
pressures have many investors selling any stock that is not working currently
and chasing any stock with price momentum, virtually without regard to
valuation. The result is that just 21 stocks accounted for all of the gain in
the S&P 500 Index.
WHAT IS YOUR OUTLOOK FOR THE FUND?
Our outlook has turned more guarded. The market is narrower, myopic, fixated on
returns with little regard for risk, and 20-30% over valued by most conventional
measures. Therefore, we continue to focus on risk management in order to
preserve returns as much as possible. This means maintaining a diversified
portfolio of high quality, predictable growth companies and paying close
attention to valuations.

HOW HAS THE FUND PERFORMED?
The IAI Midcap Growth Fund showed good relative performance during the year
ended March 31, 1999. The portfolio gained 18.31% while the S&P Midcap Index
rose only 0.45% and the S&P 500 Index rose 18.45%.
WHICH HOLDINGS WERE PARTICULARLY SUCCESSFUL FOR THE FUND? WERE THERE ANY
DISAPPOINTMENTS?
We had some of our strongest performance from the Fund's largest positions.
AFLAC (3.31%)*, Biogen (2.20%)*, Harley-Davidson (1.97%)*, Family Dollar Stores
(1.83%)*, Tut Systems (6.74%)*, and Sundstrand (sold) rose sharply during the
year. Smith International (1.51%) was also a top performer with the bounce back
in energy stocks as oil prices strengthened. Sterling Commerce (sold) was the
biggest disappointment and was eliminated from the Fund.
WERE THERE ANY SIGNIFICANT CHANGES?
Our job has been to continuously sift through the Fund to make sure the reasons
we bought the stocks remain intact. As a result of these reviews, we sold our
positions in Interim Services (sold), Finova Group (sold), Stewart Enterprises
(sold), Whitman (sold), and Platinum Technology (sold). In other instances, we
have used weakening stock prices to add to our positions.
CAN YOU POINT TO ANY SPECIFIC MARKET FACTORS THAT INFLUENCED THE FUND'S
PERFORMANCE?
The U.S. stock markets continued to be led by a small number of stocks, the very
same stocks that created large performance disparities in 1998. Technology
stocks and the very largest stocks continued their strong performance. In the
first quarter, the NASDAQ market (a proxy for large technology) was up 12.3%,
the S&P 500 Index was up 5.0%, while the S&P Midcap 400 Index was down (6.4%),
and the Russell 2000 Index was down (5.4%).
WHAT IS YOUR OUTLOOK FOR THE FUND?
Our outlook on the market has not changed from year-end. The valuation disparity
between large cap stocks and the rest of the market has reached levels that
cannot be sustained. The midcap sector should begin to show better relative
performance since large numbers of stocks in the sector are showing attractive
valuations. We are not changing our strategies. We are focused on midcap stocks
with growth characteristics and continue to run very balanced weightings across
sectors.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
IAI CAPITAL APPRECIATION FUND, IAI EMERGING GROWTH FUND, IAI GROWTH FUND,
IAI MIDCAP GROWTH FUND
MARCH 31, 1999
[1] SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The IAI Mutual Funds are registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (as
amended) as diversified, open-end management investment companies, or series
thereof. IAI Capital Appreciation Fund (Capital Appreciation Fund), IAI Emerging
Growth Fund (Emerging Growth Fund) and IAI Midcap Growth Fund (Midcap Growth
Fund) are separate portfolios of IAI Investment Funds VI, Inc. and IAI Growth
Fund (Growth Fund) is a separate portfolio of IAI Investment Funds II, Inc. The
Funds have an overall objective of long-term appreciation through investment in
equity securities.
Significant accounting policies followed by the Funds are summarized below:
SECURITY VALUATION
Portfolio securities are valued at the close of the New York Stock Exchange on
each trading day. Listed and unlisted securities for which such information is
regularly reported are valued at the last sale price of the day or, in the
absence of sales, at values based on the closing bid or the last sale price on
the prior trading day. Long-term and short-term "non-money market" debt
securities are valued by a portfolio pricing service. Securities which cannot be
valued by the portfolio pricing service are valued using dealer-supplied
valuations, or are valued under consistently applied procedures established by
the Board of Directors to determine fair value in good faith. Short-term "money
market type" debt securities having a remaining maturity of 60 days or less at
acquisition are valued at cost adjusted for amortization to maturity of any
premium or discount.
Restricted securities for which there is no public market are valued at fair
value in good faith under procedures established by the Board of Directors. Such
procedures consider various factors including, but not limited to, the cost of
the security at date of purchase, the current financial statements of the issuer
and special reports prepared by analysts, the size of the position held, recent
purchases or sales of securities of the company, prices and public trading
activity of comparable companies, prices of unrestricted securities of the same
class discounted to reflect the nature and duration of restrictions on
disposition, pending public offerings with respect to the security, changes in
economic conditions and industry developments affecting the issuer, and other
relevant matters. Restricted securities represent $24,617,229 (41.2% of net
assets) for Emerging Growth Fund and $3,319,584 (8.4% of net assets) for Midcap
Growth Fund. Because of the inherent uncertainty of valuation, those estimated
values may differ significantly from the values that would have been used had a
ready market for the securities existed, and the differences could be material.
FUTURES AND OPTIONS CONTRACTS
In order to increase exposure to and hedge against changes in the market, the
Funds may buy and sell futures contracts and options. The risks of entering into
future and option contracts include the possibility that changes in the value of
these contracts may not correlate with changes in the underlying security.
Futures contracts are valued at the settlement price of the exchange on which
they are traded. Upon entering into a futures contract, a Fund is required to
deposit either cash or securities, representing the initial margin, equal to a
certain percentage of the contract value. Subsequent changes in the value of the
contract or variation margin, are recorded daily as unrealized gains or losses.
The variation margin is paid or received in cash daily by a Fund. A Fund
realizes a gain or loss when the contract is closed or expires.
Options traded on an exchange are valued using the last sale price, and those
traded over-the-counter are valued using dealer-supplied valuations, resulting
in unrealized appreciation or depreciation being recorded. A Fund will realize a
gain or loss upon expiration or closing of the option transaction. When an
option is exercised, the proceeds on sales for a written call option, the
purchased cost for a written put option or the cost of a security for a
purchased put or call option is adjusted by the amount of premium received or
paid.

[1] SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONT.)
FEDERAL TAXES
Since it is each Fund's policy to comply with the provisions of the Internal
Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies and to distribute all
of its taxable income to its shareholders, no provision for income taxes is
required. In order to avoid the payment of any federal excise taxes, each Fund
is required to distribute substantially all of its net investment income and net
realized gains on a calendar year basis.
Net investment income and net realized gains differ for financial statement and
tax purposes primarily because of recognition of limited partnership income and
the deferral of "wash sale" losses for tax purposes. The character of
distributions made during the year from net investment income or net realized
gains may also differ from its ultimate characterization for tax purposes.
The Emerging Growth Fund elected to utilize equalization debits by which a
portion of the costs of redemptions, which occurred during the year ended March
31, 1998, reduced accumulated net realized gains for tax purposes by
$28,999,125. As a result of this and other permanent book-to-tax differences,
undistributed (overdistributed) net investment income and accumulated net
realized gains have been increased or decreased on the statement of assets and
liabilities as follows:

SECURITY TRANSACTIONS AND INVESTMENT INCOME
The Funds record security transactions on trade date, the date the securities
are purchased or sold. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date.
Interest income is accrued daily. The Funds amortize discount purchased on
long-term bonds using the level yield method of amortization. Security gains and
losses are determined on the basis of identified cost, which is the same basis
used for federal income tax purposes. The Funds use the equity method of
accounting for limited partnerships.
DISTRIBUTIONS TO SHAREHOLDERS
Distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date.
Distributions from net investment income are made semi-annually. Capital gains,
if any, are primarily distributed as of the end of the calendar year. Additional
capital gains distributions as needed to comply with federal tax regulations are
distributed during the year.
USE OF ESTIMATES
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that
affect the reported amounts in the financial statements. Actual results could
differ from those estimates.

[2] COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
INSURANCE
For purposes of obtaining certain types of insurance coverage for the Funds and
their officers and directors, the Funds are policyholders in an
industry-sponsored mutual insurance company (the Company). In connection with
their obligations as policyholders, the Funds are committed to make future
capital contributions, if requested by the Company.
LINE OF CREDIT
At March 31, 1999, Capital Appreciation Fund, Emerging Growth Fund, Growth Fund,
and Midcap Growth Fund had available lines of credit of $8,550,000, $15,000,000,
$2,460,000 and $9,105,000, respectively, with a bank at the prime interest rate.
To the extent funds are drawn against the line, securities are held in a
segregated account. No compensating balances or commitment fees are required
under the line of credit. There were no borrowings outstanding at March 31,
1999.
LIMITED PARTNERSHIP COMMITMENTS
At March 31, 1999, the Emerging Growth Fund and the Midcap Growth Fund are
committed to invest an additional $26,000 and $13,000, respectively, in Spectrum
Equity Investors limited partnership.
Default by a limited partner of payment of a properly requested capital
contribution, other than default due to a legal determination that such
contribution need not be made, would result in forfeiture of such limited
partner's interest in any future profits and loss in the partnership and removal
from the limited partnership.
The Funds' management intends to finance the aforementioned commitments with
available cash or with proceeds from the sale of investments in short-term
securities. Each Fund maintains in a segregated account an amount equal to its
aggregate unpaid commitments.
[3] FEES AND EXPENSES
Under terms of each Fund's Management Agreement, Investment Advisers, Inc.
(Advisers) is required to pay for all expenses of each Fund, except certain
costs (primarily those incurred in the purchase and sale of assets, taxes,
interest and extraordinary expenses), in return for each Fund paying an all
inclusive management fee (unified fee) to Advisers. The fee is equal to an
annual rate of 1.25% (1.40% for Capital Appreciation Fund) declining to 1.10%
(1.30% for Capital Appreciation Fund and 1.00% for Growth Fund) of average daily
net assets. This fee is paid monthly. The Management Agreements further provide
that Advisers will reimburse the Funds for the fees and expenses it pays to
Directors who are not "interested persons" of the Funds or reduce its fee by an
equivalent amount.
During the year ended March 31, 1999, Emerging Growth Fund and Midcap Growth
Fund paid $1,050 and $525, respectively, for an independent valuation of a
restricted security. This expense was approved by the Funds' board of directors
and is included in other expenses on the statement of operations.

RESTRICTED SECURITIES
Included in Emerging Growth and Midcap Growth Funds' portfolios of investments
in securities at March 31, 1999, are issues which generally cannot be offered
for sale to the public without first being registered under the Securities Act
of 1933 ("restricted securities"). Such securities are generally illiquid.
Each Fund limits investments in securities which are not readily marketable to
15% of its net assets at the time of purchase. This limitation does not include
Rule 144A securities that have been determined to be liquid based upon
guidelines approved by the Funds' Board of Directors.
At March 31, 1999, 41.2% of Emerging Growth Fund's net assets were invested in
restricted securities. At March 31, 1999, Advisers was actively seeking
liquidation opportunities which would reduce the percentage of the Fund's
investment portfolio comprised of restricted securities. Advisers, under the
direction of the Board of Directors, intends to pursue such opportunities when
deemed in the best interest of the shareholders.

IAI CAPITAL APPRECIATION FUND, IAI EMERGING GROWTH FUND, IAI GROWTH FUND,
IAI MIDCAP GROWTH FUND
THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS AND SHAREHOLDERS
IAI INVESTMENT FUNDS II, INC.
IAI INVESTMENT FUNDS VI, INC.:
We have audited the accompanying statements of assets and liabilities, including
the fund portfolios, of IAI Capital Appreciation Fund, IAI Emerging Growth Fund,
IAI Midcap Growth Fund (separate portfolios within IAI Investment Funds VI,
Inc.), and IAI Growth Fund (a portfolio within IAI Investment Funds II, Inc.) as
of March 31, 1999, and the related statements of operations and cash flows for
the year then ended, the statements of changes in net assets for each of the
years in the two-year period then ended, and the financial highlights for the
periods presented on pages 34 through 37 of the annual report. These financial
statements and the financial highlights are the responsibility of the Funds'
management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial
statements and the 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 the 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. Investment securities held in custody are confirmed to us by the
custodian. As to securities purchased and sold but not received or delivered, we
request confirmations from brokers and where replies are not received, we carry
out other appropriate auditing procedures. 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 the financial highlights referred
to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of IAI
Capital Appreciation Fund, IAI Emerging Growth Fund, IAI Midcap Growth Fund and
IAI Growth Fund at March 31, 1999, and the results of their operations and their
cash flows, the changes in their net assets and the financial highlights for the
periods stated in the first paragraph above, in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles.
As described in notes 1 and 5 to the financial statements, Emerging Growth Fund
held 41.2% of its net assets in illiquid, restricted securities as of March 31,
1999.
