--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
RISK/RETURN INFORMATION COMMON TO THE PORTFOLIOS

Each Portfolio is a mutual fund. A mutual fund pools shareholders' money and,
using professional investment managers, invests it in securities.

Each Portfolio has its own investment goal and strategies for reaching that
goal. The investment managers invest Portfolio assets in a way that they believe
will help a Portfolio achieve its goal. Still, investing in each Portfolio
involves risk and there is no guarantee that a Portfolio will achieve its goal.
An investment manager's judgments about the markets, the economy, or companies
may not anticipate actual market movements, economic conditions or company
performance, and these judgments may affect the return on your investment. In
fact, no matter how good a job an investment manager does, you could lose money
on your investment in a Portfolio, just as you could with other investments.

The value of your investment in a Portfolio is based on the market prices of the
securities the Portfolio holds. The prices of the Portfolio's fixed income
securities respond to economic and other developments, particularly interest
rate changes. Generally, the Portfolio's fixed income securities will decrease
in value if interest rates rise and vice versa. Also, longer-term securities
tend to provide higher yields than shorter-term securities but are also
generally more sensitive to interest rate changes, so the average maturity or
duration of these securities affects volatility. Perceptions about the
creditworthiness of individual issuers can also have an effect on fixed income
securities because of the possibility that an issuer will be unable to make
timely payments of either principal or interest.

Both Portfolios invest in mortgage-backed securities. The mortgages underlying
mortgage-backed securities may be paid off early, which makes it difficult to
determine their actual maturity and therefore calculate how they will respond to
changes in interest rates. The Portfolios may have to reinvest prepaid amounts
at lower interest rates. This risk of prepayment is an additional risk of
mortgage-backed securities.

SHORT-TERM MATURITY PORTFOLIO
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

PORTFOLIO SUMMARY
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
INVESTMENT GOAL ................ High level of income consistent with safety
of capital

INVESTMENT FOCUS ............... Short-term fixed income securities

SHARE PRICE VOLATILITY ......... Low

PRINCIPAL INVESTMENT STRATEGY .. Investing in short-term mortgage-backed
securities issued by the U.S. government
or private issuers

INVESTOR PROFILE ............... Investors seeking a high level of income who
are willing to accept the risks of investing
in mortgage-backed securities
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

INVESTMENT STRATEGY OF THE
SHORT-TERM MATURITY PORTFOLIO

The Short-Term Maturity Portfolio's assets will be invested exclusively in
obligations that are authorized investments for federal credit unions under the
Federal Credit Union Act. The Short-Term Maturity Portfolio invests primarily
(at least 65% of its assets) in mortgage-backed securities issued or guaranteed
as to payment of principal and interest by the U.S. government, or if backed by
private issuers, rated in one of the top two rating categories by nationally
recognized ratings organizations. The Portfolio may purchase mortgage-backed
securities that are backed or collateralized by fixed, adjustable or floating
rate mortgages. The average maturity of the Portfolio's investments will vary
depending on market conditions, but will typically be between one and three
years.

In selecting securities for the Portfolio, the Adviser considers a security's
current yield, capital appreciation potential, maturity and yield to maturity.
The Adviser will monitor changing economic conditions and trends, including
interest rates, in order to identify opportunities to buy securities which may
enhance the yield of the Portfolio. The Adviser may sell any security prior to
its maturity if other available securities are expected to enhance yield
balanced with the Adviser's judgment as to a desirable portfolio maturity or if
selling a security is believed to be advisable due to other circumstances or
considerations, such as in anticipation of a market decline.

PRINCIPAL RISKS OF INVESTING IN THE
SHORT-TERM MATURITY PORTFOLIO

Mortgage-backed securities are fixed income securities representing an interest
in a pool of underlying mortgage loans. The mortgages backing these securities
include conventional fixed rate mortgages, graduated payment mortgages, and
adjustable rate mortgages. Mortgage-backed securities are sensitive to changes
in interest rates, but may respond to these changes differently from other fixed
income securities due to the possibility of prepayment of the underlying
mortgage loans. As a result, it may not be possible to determine in advance the
actual maturity date or average life of a mortgage-backed security. Rising
interest rates tend to discourage refinancings, with the result that the average
life and volatility of the security will increase, exacerbating its decrease in
market price. When interest rates fall, however, mortgage-backed securities may
not gain as much in market value because of the expectation of additional
mortgage prepayments that must be reinvested at lower interest rates. Prepayment
risk may make it difficult to calculate the average maturity of the Portfolio of
mortgage-backed securities and, therefore, to assess the volatility risk of the
Portfolio.

The privately issued mortgage-backed securities that the Portfolio invests in
are not issued or guaranteed by the U.S. government or its agencies or
instrumentalities and may bear a greater risk of nonpayment than securities that
are backed by the U.S. Treasury. However, the timely payment of principal and
interest normally is supported, at least partially, by various credit
enhancements by banks and other financial institutions. There can be no
assurance, however, that such credit enhancements will support full payment of
the principal and interest on such obligations. In addition, changes in the
credit quality of the entity which provides credit enhancement could cause
losses to the Portfolio and affect its share price.

Treasury, while others are backed solely by the ability of the agency to borrow
from the U.S. Treasury or by the agency's own resources.

The Portfolio is also subject to the risk that short-term mortgage-backed
securities may underperform other fixed income market segments or the fixed
income markets as a whole.

PERFORMANCE INFORMATION

The bar chart and the performance table below illustrate the risks and
volatility of an investment in the Portfolio. Of course, the Portfolio's past

WHAT IS AN INDEX?

An index measures the market prices of a specific group of securities in a
particular market or securities in a market sector. You cannot invest directly
in an index. Unlike a mutual fund, an index does not have an investment adviser
and does not pay any commissions or expenses. If an index had expenses, its
performance would be lower. Constant Maturity Treasury (CMT) indexes are the
weekly or monthly average yields on U.S. Treasury securities adjusted to
constant maturities. Yields on Treasury securities at "constant maturity" are
determined by the U.S. Treasury from the daily yield curve, which is based on
the closing market bid yields on actively traded Treasury securities in the
over-the-counter market. The CMT indexes are reported by the Federal Reserve
Board. The 1-Year CMT Index is based on the average yields on U.S. Treasury
securities adjusted to a constant maturity of 1 year and is the most widely used
CMT index.

PRINCIPAL INVESTMENT STRATEGY .. Investing in short-term mortgage-backed
securities issued by the U.S. government or
private issuers

INVESTOR PROFILE ............... Investors seeking a high level of income who
are willing to accept the risks of investing
in adjustable rate mortgage-backed securities
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

INVESTMENT STRATEGY OF THE
ADJUSTABLE RATE PORTFOLIO

The Adjustable Rate Portfolio's assets will be invested exclusively in
obligations that are authorized investments for federal credit unions under the
Federal Credit Union Act. The Adjustable Rate Portfolio invests primarily (at
least 65% of its assets) in adjustable rate mortgage-backed securities ("ARMs")
issued or guaranteed as to payment of principal and interest by the U.S.
government or, if backed by private issuers, rated in one of the top two rating
categories by nationally recognized ratings organizations. The Portfolio will
normally invest at least 25% of its assets in ARMs that are backed by private
issuers. The average maturity of the Portfolio's investments will vary depending
on market conditions, but will typically be between one and five years.

PRINCIPAL RISKS OF INVESTING IN THE ADJUSTABLE RATE PORTFOLIO

Adjustable rate mortgage-backed securities are fixed income securities
representing an interest in a pool of underlying adjustable rate mortgage loans.
These adjustable rate mortgages have interest rates that reset at periodic
intervals of one year or less based upon a specified index and thus may
experience less price volatility due to changes in market interest rates than
fixed rate mortgage-backed securities or other fixed income securities. However,
these securities will still experience some price fluctuations since the
interest rate adjustments may be subject to caps and may not correlate
completely to market interest rates.

Although the Portfolio's U.S. government securities are considered to be among
the safest investments, they are not guaranteed against price movements due to
changing interest rates. Obligations issued by some U.S. government agencies are
backed by the U.S. Treasury, while others are backed solely by the ability of
the agency to borrow from the U.S. Treasury or by the agency's own resources.

The Portfolio is also subject to the risk that short to intermediate-term
adjustable rate mortgage-backed securities may underperform other fixed income
market segments or the fixed income markets as a whole.

MORE INFORMATION ABOUT
PORTFOLIO INVESTMENTS

In addition to the investments and strategies described in this prospectus, each
Portfolio also may invest in other securities, use other strategies and engage
in other investment practices. These investments and strategies, as well as
those described in this prospectus, are described in detail in our Statement of
Additional Information

Shares of the Portfolios are designed to qualify as eligible investments for
federally chartered credit unions pursuant to Sections 107(7), 107(8) and
107(15) of the Federal Credit Union Act ("FCUA") and Part 703 of the National
Credit Union Administration ("NCUA") Rules and Regulations ("NCUA Rules"). The
Adviser intends to continually monitor changes in the applicable laws, rules and
regulations governing eligible investments, including new investments, for
federally chartered credit unions and to take such action as may be necessary to
assure that the Portfolios' investments, and, therefore, shares of the
Portfolios, continue to qualify as eligible investments under the FCUA.

Sections 107(7), 107(8) and 107(15) of the FCUA set forth those securities,
deposits and other obligations in which federally chartered credit unions may
invest. The Portfolios' investments consist exclusively of assets designed to
qualify as eligible investments if owned directly by a federally chartered
credit union. Shares of the Portfolios may or may not qualify as eligible
investments for particular state chartered credit unions. Accordingly, CUFUND
encourages, but does not require, each state chartered credit union to consult
qualified legal counsel concerning whether the Portfolios' shares are
permissible investments for that credit union. While the Adviser will attempt to
assure that the Portfolios follow the investment policies set forth herein,
CUFUND cannot be responsible for compliance by participating state chartered
credit unions with limitations on permissible investments to which they may be
subject.

The investments and strategies described in this prospectus are those that we
use under normal conditions. During unusual economic or market conditions, or
for temporary defensive or liquidity purposes, each Portfolio may invest up to
100% of its assets in money market instruments that would not ordinarily be
consistent with a Portfolio's objectives. A Portfolio will do so only if the
Adviser believes that the risk of loss outweighs the opportunity for higher
income. Of course, we cannot guarantee that either Portfolio will achieve its
investment goal.

INVESTMENT ADVISER

The Investment Adviser makes investment decisions for the Portfolios and
continuously reviews, supervises and administers the Portfolios' respective
investment programs. The Board of Trustees of CUFUND supervises the Adviser and
establishes policies that the Adviser must follow in its management activities.

CUSOURCE, LLC ("CUSOURCE") serves as the Adviser to the Portfolios and is
located at 7920 Belt Line Road, Suite 1100, Dallas, TX 75240. CUSOURCE is a
Texas limited liability company of which the sole member is Southwest Corporate
Federal Credit Union a federally chartered corporate credit union. As of May 31,
2000, Southwest Corporate Federal Credit Union had total assets of approximately
$3.5 billion, ranking it as the second largest corporate credit union in the
United States. CUSOURCE was founded in 1998 and registered as an investment
adviser as of January 1, 1999. As of May 31, 2000, CUSOURCE had credit union
funds under advisement in its Investment Advisory Service of approximately
$1.5 billion. For the fiscal period ended May 31, 2000, CUSOURCE received
advisory fees of:

SHORT-TERM MATURITY PORTFOLIO ........ 0.06%
ADJUSTABLE RATE PORTFOLIO ............ 0.08%

PORTFOLIO MANAGERS

The Portfolios are managed by Bruce M. Fox and Marty L. Robertson. Mr. Fox is
the Chief Investment Officer of CUSOURCE and joined the Adviser in 1990. Mr. Fox
has served as portfolio manager of the Short-Term Maturity Portfolio since
August 1994 and the Adjustable Rate Portfolio since September 1996. He is
responsible for management of CUSOURCE's funds management area.

<PAGE>

Mr. Robertson is a Senior Investment Adviser for CUSOURCE and has co-managed the
Portfolios with Mr. Fox since August 1999. He has served as back up portfolio
manager for the Portfolios since 1997. Since joining the Adviser in 1992, Mr.
Robertson has been responsible for providing investment advisory services to
approximately 24 credit unions.

PURCHASING AND SELLING PORTFOLIO SHARES

This section tells you how to purchase and sell (sometimes called "redeem")
shares of the Portfolios. Shares of the Portfolios are offered solely to
federally and state chartered credit unions.

HOW TO PURCHASE PORTFOLIO SHARES

To purchase shares directly from us, please call 1-800-538-9683, and place your
trade with an investor services representative.

You may also buy shares through accounts with brokers and other institutions
that are authorized to place trades in Portfolio shares for their customers. If
you invest through an authorized institution, you will have to follow its
procedures, which may be different from the procedures for investing directly.
Your broker or institution may charge a fee for its services, in addition to the
fees charged by the Portfolio. You will also generally have to address your
correspondence or questions regarding a Portfolio to your institution.

GENERAL INFORMATION

You may purchase shares on any day that the New York Stock Exchange and the
Federal Reserve are open for business (a Business Day).

A Portfolio may reject any purchase order if it is determined that accepting the
order would not be in the best interests of the Portfolio or its shareholders.

The price per share (the offering price) will be the net asset value per share
(NAV) next determined after a Portfolio receives your purchase order.

Each Portfolio calculates its NAV once each Business Day at the
regularly-scheduled close of normal trading on the New York Stock Exchange
(normally, 4:00 p.m., Eastern time). So, for you to receive the current Business
Day's NAV, a Portfolio must generally receive your purchase order before 4:00
p.m., Eastern time and federal funds (readily available funds) before 12:00
p.m., Eastern time on the next business day.

HOW WE CALCULATE NAV

NAV for one Portfolio share is the value of that share's portion of the net
assets of the Portfolio.

In calculating NAV, a Portfolio generally values its investment portfolio at
market price. If market prices are unavailable or a Portfolio thinks that they
are unreliable, fair value prices may be determined in good faith using methods
approved by the Board of Trustees.

MINIMUM PURCHASES

To purchase shares for the first time, you must invest at least $100,000 in
either Portfolio. There is no minimum for subsequent investments. A Portfolio
may accept investments of smaller amounts at its discretion.

HOW TO SELL YOUR PORTFOLIO SHARES

If you own your shares directly, you may sell your shares on any Business Day by
contacting an investor services representative directly by telephone at
1-800-538-9683.

If you own your shares through an account with a broker or other institution,
contact that broker or institution to sell your shares. Your broker or
institution may charge a fee for its services, in addition to the fees charged
by the Portfolio.

The sale price of each share will be the next NAV determined after the Portfolio
receives your request.

RECEIVING YOUR MONEY

Normally, we will send your sale proceeds as promptly as possible and, in any
event, within seven days after we receive your request. Your proceeds can be
wired to your bank account.

INVOLUNTARY SALES OF YOUR SHARES

If your account balance drops below $100,000 because of redemptions, the
Portfolio may redeem your shares. But, a Portfolio will always give you at least
60 days' written notice to give you time to add to your account and avoid the
sale of your shares.

<PAGE>

SUSPENSION OF YOUR RIGHT TO SELL YOUR SHARES

A Portfolio may suspend your right to sell your shares during the times when the
New York Stock Exchange restricts or halts trading, or as otherwise permitted by
the SEC. More information about this is in our Statement of Additional
Information.

TELEPHONE TRANSACTIONS

Purchasing and selling Portfolio shares over the telephone is extremely
convenient, but not without risk. Although the Portfolio has certain safeguards
and procedures to confirm the identity of callers and the authenticity of
instructions, the Portfolio is not responsible for any losses or costs incurred
by following telephone instructions we reasonably believe to be genuine. If you
or your financial institution transact with the Portfolio over the telephone,
you will generally bear the risk of any loss.

DIVIDENDS AND DISTRIBUTIONS

Each Portfolio declares dividends daily and distributes its income monthly. Each
Portfolio makes distributions of capital gains, if any, at least annually. If
you own Portfolio shares on a Portfolio's record date, you will be entitled to
receive the distribution.

You will receive dividends and distributions in the form of additional Portfolio
shares unless you elect to receive payment in cash. To elect cash payment, you
must notify the Portfolio in writing at least 15 days prior to the date of the
distribution. Your election will be effective for dividends and distributions
paid after the Portfolio receives your written notice. To cancel your election,
simply send the Portfolio written notice.

TAXES

PLEASE CONSULT YOUR TAX ADVISOR REGARDING YOUR SPECIFIC QUESTIONS ABOUT FEDERAL,
STATE AND LOCAL INCOME TAXES. Below we have summarized some important tax issues
that affect the Portfolios and their shareholders. This summary is based on
current tax laws, which may change.

Under certain circumstances, state and federally chartered credit unions may be
exempt from federal income taxation. Shareholders having tax-exempt status may
be wholly or partially exempt from federal income taxation on income, dividends,
or capital gains realized as a result of purchasing, holding, exchanging or
redeeming Portfolio shares. Accordingly, Shareholders are urged to consult their
tax advisor regarding the tax consequences resulting from an investment in
Portfolio shares.

At least annually, each Portfolio will distribute substantially all of its net
investment income and net realized capital gains, if any. The dividends and
distributions you receive may be subject to federal, state and local taxation,
depending upon your tax situation. Distributions you receive from a Portfolio
may be taxable whether or not you reinvest them. Income distributions, if
taxable to you, are generally taxable at ordinary income tax rates. Capital
gains distributions, if taxable to you, are generally taxable at the rates
applicable to long-term capital gains. Each sale, exchange or redemption of
Portfolio shares may be a taxable event.

MORE INFORMATION ABOUT TAXES IS IN OUR STATEMENT OF ADDITIONAL INFORMATION.

<PAGE>

FINANCIAL HIGHLIGHTS

The table that follows presents performance information about each Portfolio.
This information is intended to help you understand each Portfolio's financial
performance for the past five years. Some of this information reflects financial
information for a single Portfolio share. The total returns in the table
represent the rates that you would have earned (or lost) on an investment in a
Portfolio, assuming you reinvested all of your dividends and distributions. This
information has been audited by Arthur Andersen LLP, independent public
accountants. Their report, along with each Portfolio's financial statements,
appears in the annual report that accompanies our Statement of Additional
Information. You can obtain the annual report, which contains more performance
information, at no charge by calling 1-800-538-9683.

THE TRUST

CUFUND (the "Trust") is a diversified, open-end management investment company,
which was organized as a Massachusetts business trust on November 22, 1991. The
Trust offers units of beneficial interest ("shares") in two portfolios
("Portfolios"), the Short-Term Maturity Portfolio and the Adjustable Rate
Portfolio. Each share of each Portfolio represents an undivided, proportionate
interest in that Portfolio. Shares of the Trust are sold without a sales charge.

The Trust is offered solely to federally and state chartered credit unions.
Shares of the Trust are designed to qualify as eligible investments for federal
chartered credit unions pursuant to Sections 107(7), 107(8) and 107(15) of the
Federal Credit Union Act (FCUA) and Part 703 of the National Credit Union
Administration (NCUA) Rules and Regulations (NCUA Rules). The Trust intends to
continually monitor changes in the applicable laws, rules and regulations
governing eligible investments, including new investments, for federally
chartered credit unions and to take such action as may be necessary to assure
that the Trust's investments, and, therefore, shares of the Trust, continue to
qualify as eligible investments under the FCUA.

Sections 107(7), 107(8) and 107(15) of the FCUA set forth those securities,
deposits and other obligations in which federally chartered credit unions may
invest. The Trust's investments consist exclusively of assets designed to
qualify as eligible investments if owned directly by a federally chartered
credit union. Shares of the Trust may or may not qualify as eligible investments
for particular state chartered credit unions. Accordingly, the Trust encourages,
but does not require, each state chartered credit union to consult qualified
legal counsel concerning whether the Trust's shares are permissible investments
for the credit union. While the Adviser will attempt to assure that the Trust
follows the investment policies set forth herein, the Trust cannot be
responsible for compliance by participating state chartered credit unions with
limitations to which they may be subject.

The Trust is designed as a convenient and economic vehicle for federally and
state chartered credit unions seeking to obtain the yields available on
short-term and adjustable rate investments authorized under the FCUA. The Trust
offers credit unions an alternative to direct investments in eligible
investments, with the intended financial advantage of quantity purchases. For
example, a higher yield may be available when eligible investments are bought in
substantial amounts. Investment in the Trust will relieve the credit unions of
any of the investment and administrative problems usually associated with the
direct purchase and investment management of these eligible investments, such as
scheduling maturities and reinvestments, safekeeping of securities, surveying
the market for the best price at which to buy and sell, and separate principal
and interest record keeping.

INVESTMENT OBJECTIVE AND POLICIES OF THE SHORT-TERM MATURITY PORTFOLIO

The Short-Term Maturity Portfolio seeks a high level of income consistent with
safety of capital. There is no assurance that the Portfolio's investment
objective will be met.

The Short-Term Maturity Portfolio's assets will be invested exclusively in
obligations that are authorized investments for federal credit unions under the
FCUA, consisting of. obligations issued or fully guaranteed as to principal and
interest by the United Sates Government and its agencies or instrumentalities;
certificates of deposit, bankers' acceptances and time deposits issued or
guaranteed by United Sates banks with total assets exceeding $1 billion,
including comparable U.S. dollar denominated obligations of foreign branches of
such banks; mortgage-backed securities; share certificates issued by corporate
credit unions that operate in compliance with Part 704 of the NCUA Rules and are
examined by the NCUA; repurchase agreements and reverse repurchase agreements
involving securities that constitute permissible investments for the Portfolio;
and federal funds. When market conditions are favorable, the Portfolio will be
predominantly invested in mortgage-backed securities. See "General Portfolio
Management Policies." For additional information regarding permitted investments
of the Portfolio, see "Description of Permitted Investments and Risk Factors."

S-2
<PAGE>

Under normal circumstances, the Short-Term Maturity Portfolio will maintain an
average weighted maturity of three years or less. The measure of maturity will
be the expected life of securities held by the Portfolio. See "Description of
Permitted Investments and Risk Factors."

INVESTMENT OBJECTIVE AND POLICIES OF THE ADJUSTABLE RATE PORTFOLIO

The Adjustable Rate Portfolio seeks higher levels of current income while
reducing principal volatility. There is no assurance that the Portfolio's
investment objective will be met.

The Adjustable Rate Portfolio's assets will be invested exclusively in
obligations authorized under the FCUA. The Adjustable Rate Portfolio will, under
normal circumstances, invest at least 65% of its assets in adjustable rate
mortgage securities (ARMS) or other adjustable rate securities that have
interest rates which reset at periodic intervals. ARMs are pass-through
certificates representing interest in a pool of adjustable rate mortgages. These
adjustable rate mortgages and other adjustable rate securities have interest
rates that reset at periodic intervals of one year or less based upon a
specified index and thus may experience less price volatility due to changes in
market interest rates than other debt securities. However, these securities will
still experience some price fluctuations since the interest rate adjustments may
be subject to caps and may not correlate completely to market interest rates.
For a description of the Portfolio's permitted investments, see "Description of
Permitted Investments and Risk Factors."

Under normal circumstances, the Adjustable Rate Portfolio expects to maintain an
average weighted maturity of less than 5 years. The measure of maturity will be
the expected life of securities held by the Portfolio. See "Description of
Permitted Investments and Risk Factors."

GENERAL PORTFOLIO MANAGEMENT POLICIES

The Adviser will seek to enhance the yield of each Portfolio by taking advantage
of yield disparities or other factors that occur in the government securities
and money markets. The Trust may dispose of any portfolio security prior to its
maturity if such disposition and reinvestment of the proceeds are expected to
enhance yield consistent with the Adviser's judgment as to a desirable portfolio
maturity structure or if such disposition is believed to be advisable due to
other circumstances or considerations.

Mortgage-backed securities purchased by a Portfolio will be issued or guaranteed
as to payment of principal and interest by the U.S. Government, its agencies or
instrumentalities or, if backed by private issuers, rated in one of the two
highest rating categories by a nationally recognized statistical rating
organization (an NRSRO). The principal governmental issuers or guarantors of
mortgage-backed securities are the Government National Mortgage Association
(GNMA), Fannie Mae, and Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation (FHLMC).
Obligations of GNMA are backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S.
Government while obligations of Fannie Mae and FHLMC are supported by the
respective agency only. Guarantees of each Portfolio's securities by the U.S.
Government, its agencies or instrumentalities guarantee only the payment of
principal and interest on the guaranteed securities, and do not guarantee the
securities' yield or value or the yield or value of the Portfolio's shares. Each
portfolio may purchase mortgage-backed securities that are backed or
collateralized by fixed, adjustable or floating rate mortgages.

Under normal circumstances, the Adjustable Rate Portfolio will invest at least
25% of its total assets in privately issued mortgage-backed securities
(securities that are not issued or guaranteed by the U.S. Government, its
agencies or instrumentalities), including securities nominally issued by a
governmental entity (such as the Resolution Trust Corporation) that is not
responsible for the payment of principal and interest on such securities. While
such securities are not obligations of a governmental entity and thus may bear a
greater risk of nonpayment, the timely payment of principal and interest
normally is supported, at least partially, by various forms of insurance or
guarantees. There can be no assurance, however, that such credit enhancements
will support full payment of the principal and interest on such obligations. As
stated

S-3
<PAGE>

above, each Portfolio intends to invest in privately issued,
mortgage-backed securities only if they are rated in one of the two highest
rating categories.

For temporary defensive purposes when the Adviser determines that market
conditions warrant, each Portfolio may invest up to 100% of its assets in the
money market instruments described above and in the "Description of Permitted
Investments and Risk Factors," and may hold a portion of its assets in cash.
While each Portfolio expects to invest primarily in mortgage-backed securities,
the Adviser may decide to reduce either Portfolio's holdings at a time when it
believes mortgage-backed securities are trading at a high premium, experiencing
high levels of prepayments, trading at historically narrow effective margins, or
are otherwise less attractive investments with a risk of capital depreciation.

For the fiscal years ended May 31, 2000 and May 31, 1999, the portfolio turnover
rates for the Short-Term Maturity Portfolio were 72% and 130% respectively, and
for the Adjustable Rate Portfolio were 42% and 35%, respectively.

The Portfolios will not purchase any obligation of any bank or savings and loan
association that does not qualify as a "Section 107(8) institution" under the
FCUA and regulations thereunder.

Fluctuations in the price of securities held by a Portfolio will cause
fluctuations in the net asset value of that Portfolio's shares.

Some of the permitted investments for the Portfolios may not be permitted
investments for the particular state chartered credit unions. See "The Trust."

DESCRIPTION OF PERMITTED INVESTMENTS AND RISK FACTORS

The following is a description of the permitted investments for the Portfolios:

BANKERS' ACCEPTANCES--Bankers' acceptances are bills of exchange or time drafts
drawn on and accepted by a commercial bank. Bankers' acceptances are used by
corporations to finance the shipment and storage of goods. Maturities are
generally six months or less.

CERTIFICATES OF DEPOSIT; SHARE CERTIFCATES--Certificates of deposit are interest
bearing instruments with a specific maturity. They are issued by banks and
savings and loan associations in exchange for the deposit of funds and normally
can be traded in the secondary market prior to maturity. Each Portfolio may also
purchase share certificates issued by certain credit unions which cannot be
traded in a secondary market. Such share certificates are considered to be
illiquid securities and neither Portfolio may invest more than 15% of its net
assets in illiquid securities. See "Non-Fundamental Policies."

FEDERAL FUNDS--Federal funds are funds held by a regional Federal Reserve Bank
for the account of a bank that is a member of such Federal Reserve Bank. A loan
of federal funds is an unsecured loan at a negotiated interest rate for a
negotiated time period, generally overnight. Unsecured loans of federal funds
may be made to U.S. banks and other Section 107(8) institutions, provided that:
1) the accounts of such banks are federally insured; 2) the interest received is
at the market rate for federal funds transactions and 3) the transaction has a
specified maturity or the Portfolio is able to require repayment at any time.
Federal funds investments maturing in more than seven days are considered to be
illiquid; a Portfolio will not invest more than 15% of its net assets in
illiquid securities. See "Non-Fundamental Policies."

Loans of federal funds are not federally insured. In the event the borrower of
federal funds enters into a bankruptcy or other insolvency proceedings, the
lending Portfolio could experience delays and incur expenses in recovering cash.
Further, the possibility exists that, in such an instance, the borrowing
institution may not be able to repay the borrowed funds. A Portfolio will limit
federal funds lending to those banks and other Section 107(8) institutions whose
creditworthiness has been reviewed and found satisfactory by the Adviser.

MORTGAGE-BACKED SECURITIES--Mortgage-backed securities are instruments that
entitle the holder to a share of all interest and principal payments from
mortgages underlying the security. The mortgages backing these securities
include conventional fixed rate mortgages, graduated payment mortgages, and
adjustable rate mortgages. During periods of declining interest rates,
prepayment of mortgages, underlying mortgage-backed securities can be expected
to accelerate. Prepayment of mortgages which underlie securities purchased at a
premium often results in capital losses, while prepayment of mortgages purchased
at a discount often results in capital gains. Because of these unpredictable
prepayment characteristics, it is often not possible to predict accurately the
average life or realized yield of a particular issue.

GOVERNMENT PASS-THROUGH SECURITIES: These are securities that
are issued or guaranteed by a U.S. Government agency representing an
interest in a pool of mortgage loans. The primary issuers or guarantors
of these mortgage-backed securities are GNMA, Fannie Mae and FHLMC.
Fannie Mae and FHLMC obligations are not backed by the full faith and
credit of the U.S. Government as GNMA certificates are, but Fannie Mae
and FHLMC securities are supported by the instrumentalities' right to
borrow from the U.S. Treasury. GNMA, Fannie Mae and FHLMC each
guarantees timely distributions of interest to certificate holders.
GNMA and Fannie Mae also each guarantees timely distributions of
scheduled principal. FHLMC in the past guaranteed only the ultimate
collection of principal of the underlying mortgage loan; however, FHLMC
now issues mortgage-backed securities (FHLMC Gold PCS) which also
guarantee timely payment of monthly principal reductions. Government
and private guarantees do not extend to the securities' value, which is
likely to vary inversely with fluctuations in interest rates.

PRIVATE PASS-THROUGH SECURITIES: These are mortgage-backed
securities issued by a non-governmental entity, such as a trust. These
securities include CMOs and REMICs that are rated in one of the top two
rating categories. While they are generally structured with one or more
types of credit enhancement, private pass-through securities typically
lack a guarantee by an entity having the credit status of a
governmental agency or instrumentality.

CMOS: CMOs are debt obligations or multi-class pass-through
certificates issued by agencies or instrumentalities of the U.S.
Government or by private originators or investors in mortgage loans. In
a CMO, series of bonds or certificates are usually issued in multiple
classes. Principal and interest paid on the underlying mortgage assets
may be allocated among the several classes of a series of a CMO in a
variety of ways. Each class of a CMO, often referred to as a "tranche,"
is issued with a specific fixed or floating coupon rate and has a
stated maturity or final distribution date. Principal payments on the
underlying mortgage assets may cause CMOs to be retired substantially
earlier than their stated maturities or final distribution dates,
resulting in a loss of all or part of any premium paid. One or more
classes of CMOs may have coupon rates that reset periodically based on
an index, such as the London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR). The Trust
may purchase fixed, adjustable or "floating" rate CMOs: (i) that are
collateralized by fixed rate or adjustable rate mortgages that are
guaranteed as to payment of principal and interest by an agency or
instrumentality of the U.S. Government: (ii) that are directly
guaranteed as to payment of principal and interest by the issuer, which
guarantee is collateralized by U.S. Government securities; (iii) that
are collateralized by privately issued fixed rate or adjustable rate
mortgages adhering to sufficient credit enhancements to achieve the
highest rating by an NRSRO; (iv) whose price is estimated to change not
more than 17 percent, due to an immediate and sustained parallel shift
in the yield curve of plus or minus 300 basis points; (v) whose
expected average life is not greater than 10 years; (vi) whose average
life would not extend by more than 4 years, assuming an immediate and
sustained parallel shift in the yield curve of plus 300 basis points;
and (vii) whose average life would not shorten by more than 6 years,
assuming an immediate and sustained parallel shift in the yield curve
of minus 300 basis points.

REMICS: A REMIC is a CMO that qualifies for special tax
treatment under the Code and invests in certain mortgages principally
secured by interests in real property. Investors may purchase
beneficial interests in REMICS, which are known as "regular" interests,
or "residual" interests. The Portfolios will not invest in residual
REMICS. Guaranteed REMIC pass-through certificates (REMIC Certificates)
issued by Fannie Mae, FHLMC or GNMA represent beneficial

S-5
<PAGE>
ownership interests in a REMIC trust consisting principally of mortgage
loans or Fannie Mae, FHLMC or GNMA-guaranteed mortgage pass-through
certificates. For FHLMC REMIC Certificates, FHLMC guarantees the timely
payment of interest, and also guarantees the payment of principal as
payments are required to be made on the underlying mortgage
participation certificates. Fannie Mae REMIC Certificates are issued
and guaranteed as to timely distribution of principal and interest by
Fannie Mae. GNMA REMIC certificates are supported by the full faith and
credit of the U.S. Treasury.

PARALLEL PAY SECURITIES, PAC BONDS: Parallel pay CMOs and
REMICs are structured to provide payments of principal on each payment
date to more than one class. These simultaneous payments are taken into
account in calculating the stated maturity date or final distribution
date of each class, which must be retired by its stated maturity date
or final distribution date, but may be retired earlier. Planned
Amortization Class CMOs (PAC Bonds) generally require payments of a
specified amount of principal on each payment date. PAC Bonds are
always parallel pay CMOs with the required principal payment on such
securities having the highest priority after interest has been paid to
all classes.

ESTIMATED AVERAGE LIFE: Due to the possibility of prepayments
of the underlying mortgage instruments, mortgage-backed securities
generally do not have a known maturity. In the absence of a known
maturity, market participants generally refer to an estimated average
life. An average life estimate is a function of an assumption regarding
anticipated prepayment patterns, based upon current interest rates,
current conditions in the relevant housing markets and other factors.
The assumption is necessarily subjective, and thus different market
participants can produce different average life estimates with regard
to the same security. There can be no assurance that estimated average
life will be a security's actual average life. The Adviser performs
median prepayment estimates in accordance with Section 703 of the
revised NCUA Rules.

REPURCHASE AGREEMENTS--Repurchase agreements are agreements by which a Portfolio
obtains a security and simultaneously commits to return the security to the
seller at an agreed upon price on an agreed upon date within a number of days
from the date of purchase. The Custodian will hold the security as collateral
for the repurchase agreement. A Portfolio bears a risk of loss in the event the
other party defaults on its obligations and the Portfolio is delayed or
prevented from exercising its right to dispose of the collateral or if the
Portfolio realizes a loss on the sale of the collateral. A Portfolio will enter
into repurchase agreements only with financial institutions deemed to present
minimal risk of bankruptcy during the term of the agreement based on established
guidelines. Repurchase agreements are considered loans under the 1940 Act,
although they are not considered to be loans under Section 107 of the FCUA,
which generally limits federal credit unions to making loans only to members.

REVERSE REPURCHASE AGREEMENTS--Reverse repurchase agreements are agreements by
which a Portfolio sells securities to financial institutions and simultaneously
agrees to repurchase those securities at a mutually agreed-upon date and price.
At the time a Portfolio enters into a reverse repurchase agreement, the
Portfolio will place liquid assets having a value equal to the repurchase price
in a segregated custodial account and monitor this account to ensure equivalent
value is maintained. Reverse repurchase agreements involve the risk that the
market value of securities sold by the Portfolio may decline below the price at
which the Portfolio is obligated to repurchase the securities. Reverse
repurchase agreements are considered to be borrowings by a Portfolio under the
1940 Act, and would also be considered to be borrowings under Section 107 of the
FCUA.

TIME DEPOSITS--Time deposits are nonnegotiable receipts issued by a bank in
exchange for a deposit of funds. Like certificates of deposit, they earn a
specified rate of interest over a definite period of time; however, they cannot
be traded in the secondary market. Time deposits with a withdrawal penalty or
that mature in more than seven days are considered to be illiquid securities.

UNITED STATES GOVERNMENT AGENCIES--Obligations issued or guaranteed by agencies
of the U.S. Government, including, among others, the Federal Farm Credit Bank,
the Federal Housing

S-6
<PAGE>

Administration and the Small Business Administration, and obligations issued or
guaranteed by instrumentalities of the U.S. Government, including, among others,
FHLMC, the Federal Land Banks and the U.S. Postal Service. Some of these
securities are supported by the full faith and credit of the U.S. Treasury,
others are supported by the right of the issuer to borrow from the Treasury,
while still others are supported only by the credit of the instrumentality.
Guarantees of principal by agencies or instrumentalities of the U.S. Government
may be a guarantee of payment at the maturity of the obligation so that in the
event of a default prior to maturity there might not be a market and thus no
means of realizing on the obligation prior to maturity. Guarantees as to the
timely payment of principal and interest do not extend to the value or yield of
these securities nor to the value of a Portfolio's shares.

UNITED STATES TREASURY OBLIGATIONS--U.S Treasury obligations consist of bills,
notes and bonds issued by the U.S. Treasury and separately traded interest and
principal component parts of such obligations that are transferable through the
federal book-entry system known as Separately Traded Registered Interest and
Principal Securities (STRIPS).

VARIABLE AND FLOATING RATE INSTRUMENTS--Certain obligations purchased by each
Portfolio may carry variable or floating rates of interest, and may involve a
conditional or unconditional demand feature. Such instruments bear interest at
rates which are not fixed, but which vary with changes in specified market rates
or indices such as the Federal Reserve Composite Index. The interest rates on
these securities may be reset daily, weekly, quarterly or some other reset
period, and may have a floor or ceiling on interest rate changes. There is a
risk that the current interest rate on such obligations may not accurately
reflect existing market interest rates. A demand instrument with a demand notice
exceeding seven days may be considered illiquid if there is no secondary market
for such security.

WHEN-ISSUED AND DELAYED DELIVERY SECURITIES--The Portfolios may individually
purchase or sell portfolio securities in when-issued or delayed delivery
transactions. When-issued or delayed delivery basis transactions involve the
purchase of an instrument with payment and delivery taking place in the future.
Delivery of and payment for these securities may occur a month or more after the
date of the purchase commitment. Each Portfolio will maintain with the Custodian
a separate account with liquid assets in an amount at least equal to these
commitments. The interest rate realized on these securities is fixed as of the
purchase date and no interest accrues to the Portfolio before settlement. These
securities are subject to market fluctuation due to changes in market interest
rates and it is possible that the market value at the time of settlement could
be higher or lower than the purchase price if the general level of interest
rates has changed. Although a Portfolio generally purchases securities on a
when-issued or forward commitment basis with the intention of actually acquiring
securities for its portfolio, a Portfolio may dispose of a when-issued security
or forward commitment prior to settlement if it deems appropriate.

INVESTMENT LIMITATIONS

The investment objective and the following investment limitations are
"fundamental policies" of each Portfolio. Fundamental policies cannot be changed
with respect to a Portfolio without the consent of the holders of a majority of
the Portfolio's outstanding shares. The term "majority of the Portfolio's
outstanding shares" means the vote of (i) 67% or more of the Portfolio's shares
present at a meeting, if more than 50% of the outstanding shares of the
Portfolio are present or represented by proxy, or (ii) more than 50% of the
Portfolio's outstanding shares, whichever is less.

Each Portfolio may not:

1. Purchase securities of any issuer (except securities issued or
guaranteed as to principal and interest by the U.S. Government, its agencies or
instrumentalities and repurchase agreements involving, such securities) if as a
result of such purchase more than 5% of the total assets of the Portfolio would
be invested in the securities of such issuer. This restriction applies to 75% of
the Portfolio's total assets.

2. Purchase any securities which would cause more than 25% of the total
assets of the Portfolio to be invested in the securities of one or more issuers
conducting their principal business activities in the same

S-7
<PAGE>

industry; provided that this limitation does not apply to securities issued or
guaranteed by the U.S. Government, its agencies or instrumentalities, or
repurchase agreements involving such securities; and further provided that the
Adjustable Rate Portfolio will invest at least 25% of the value of its total
assets in mortgage-backed securities which are not issued or guaranteed by the
U.S. Government as described in the Prospectus, except when investing for
temporary defensive purposes.

3. Borrow money except for temporary or emergency purposes and then only
in an amount not exceeding one-third of the value of its total assets, except
that each Portfolio may enter into reverse repurchase agreements. Any borrowing
will be done from a credit union, corporate credit union or bank (any borrowing
over 5% will be from a bank) and, to the extent that such borrowing exceeds 5%
of the value of the Portfolio's assets, asset coverage of at least 300% is
required. In the event that such asset coverage shall at any time fall below
300%, the Portfolio shall, within three days thereafter or such longer period as
the SEC may prescribe by rules and regulations, reduce the amount of its
borrowings to such an extent that the asset coverage of such borrowings shall be
at least 300%. This borrowing provision is included solely to facilitate the
orderly sale of portfolio securities to accommodate heavy redemption requests if
they should occur and is not for investment purposes. All borrowings in excess
of 5% of a Portfolio's total assets will be repaid before the Portfolio makes
additional investments and any interest paid on such borrowings will reduce
income.

4. Make loans, except that (a) a Portfolio may purchase or hold debt
instruments in accordance with its investment objective and policies; and (b) a
Portfolio may enter into repurchase agreements.

5. Pledge, mortgage or hypothecate assets, except to secure temporary
borrowings permitted by paragraph (3) above in aggregate amounts not to exceed
10% of total assets taken at current value at the time of the incurrence of such
loan.

6. Purchase or sell real estate, real estate limited partnership
interests, futures contracts, commodities or commodities contracts, provided
that this limitation shall not prohibit the purchase of securities of issuers
that may invest in such obligations and debt securities secured by real estate
or interests therein.

7. Make short sales of securities, maintain a short position or purchase
securities on margin, except that the Trust may obtain short-term credits as
necessary for the clearance of security transactions.

8. Act as an underwriter of securities of other issuers except as it may
be deemed an underwriter in selling a Portfolio security.

9. Purchase securities of other investment companies except for money
market funds, collateralized mortgage obligations (CMOs) and real estate
mortgage investment conduits (REMICS) and then only as permitted by the 1940 Act
and the rules and regulations thereunder. Under these rules and regulations, the
Portfolios are prohibited from acquiring the securities of other investment
companies if, as a result of such acquisition, the Portfolios own more than 3%
of the total voting stock of the company; securities issued by any one
investment company represent more than 5% of the total assets of either
Portfolio; or securities (other than treasury stock) issued by all investment
companies represent more than 10% of the total assets of either Portfolio.
Investment companies typically incur fees that are separate from those fees
incurred directly by the Portfolio. A Portfolio's purchase of such investment
company securities results in the layering of expenses, such that Shareholders
would indirectly bear a proportionate share of the operating expenses of such
investment companies, including advisory fees.

It is the position of the SEC's Staff that certain nongovernmental issuers of
CMOs and REMICs constitute investment companies pursuant to the 1940 Act and
that investments in instruments issued by such entities are subject to the
limitations set forth above unless the issuers of such instruments have received
orders from the SEC exempting such instruments from the definition of investment
company.

10. Issue senior securities (as defined in the 1940 Act) except in
connection with permitted borrowings as described above or as permitted by rule,
regulations or order of the SEC.

S-8
<PAGE>

11. Purchase or retain securities of an issuer if, to the knowledge of the
Trust, an officer, Trustee, partner or director of the Trust or any investment
adviser of the Trust owns beneficially more than 1% of the shares or securities
of such issuer and all such officers, Trustees, partners and directors owning
more than 1% of such shares or securities together own more than 5% of such
shares or securities.

12. Invest in interests in oil, gas or other mineral exploration or
development programs or oil, gas or mineral leases.

13. Purchase securities of any company which has (with predecessors) a
record of less than three years' continuing operations, except (i) obligations
issued or guaranteed by the U.S. Government, its agencies or instrumentalities,
or (ii) municipal securities which are rated by at least two NRSROS, if, as a
result, more than 5% of the total assets (taken at fair market value) of the
Portfolio would be invested in such securities.

In addition,

14. CUFUND is not insured or insurable by the National Credit Union Share
Insurance Fund.

15. CUFUND is not supervised or examined by NCUA and is not subject to NCUA
oversight. It is the responsibility of each credit union investing in CUFUND to
evaluate the appropriateness of the investment and the suitable level of
concentration risk on their balance sheets.

16. Except for the initial shareholder, CUFUND investors are restricted to
only credit unions. CUFUND will refuse all offers of investment arising from
other non-credit union parties.

17. Each Portfolio of CUFUND will only invest in investments and engage in
transactions permitted for natural person federal credit unions under Sections
107(7), 107(8) and 107(15) of the FCUA and Part 703 of the NCUA Rules and
Regulations.

18. Any amendments, modifications or changes to these fundamental policies
must be approved by the NCUA before becoming effective.

NON-FUNDAMENTAL POLICIES

Non-fundamental policies can be changed without Shareholder approval.

Each Portfolio may not:

1. Invest in warrants.

2. Invest in illiquid securities in an amount exceeding, in the aggregate,
15% of the Portfolio's net assets. An illiquid security is a security which
cannot be disposed of promptly (within seven days) and in the usual course of
business at a price that approximates its carrying value by the Portfolio, and
includes repurchase agreements maturing in excess of seven days, time deposits
with a withdrawal penalty, non-negotiable instruments and instruments for which
no market exists.

3. Write or purchase puts, calls, options or combinations thereof.

4. Acquire more than 10% of the voting securities of any one issuer.

5. Invest in companies for the purpose of exercising control.

Credit unions that seek an independent certified accountant's opinion on their
financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles
(GAAP) are required to account for investments in mutual funds such as CUFUND in
accordance with Statements of Accounting Standards 115,

S-9
<PAGE>

Accounting for Certain Debt and Equity Securities. This disclosure is intended
to comply with the substance of an NCUA requirement that the Adviser disclose
the proper accounting treatment for Shareholders investing in the Trust.

The foregoing percentages concerning the investment limitations and
non-fundamental policies of the Portfolios will apply at the time of the
purchase of a security and shall not be considered violated unless an excess
occurs or exists immediately after and as a result of a purchase of such
security.

THE ADVISER

The Trust and CUSOURCE, LLC (the Adviser) have entered into an investment
advisory agreement (the Advisory Agreement). Under the Advisory Agreement, the
Adviser makes the investment decisions for each Portfolio and continuously
reviews, supervises and administers each Portfolio's investment programs,
subject to the supervision of, and policies established by, the Trustees of the
Trust. Each Portfolio may also execute brokerage or other agency transactions
through an affiliate of the Adviser for which the affiliate receives
compensation.

The Adviser is a Texas limited liability company located at 7920 Belt Line Road,
Suite 1100, Dallas, TX 75240. The sole member of the limited liability company
is Southwest Corporate Federal Credit Union, the second largest corporate credit
union in the United States. Founded in 1975, the Adviser provides credit unions
with investment products and services; payment systems services; correspondent
financial services; financial management information; and credit services. The
Adviser registered as an investment adviser in 1989 and, as of May 31, 2000, had
credit union funds under advisement in its Investment Advisory Service of
approximately $1.5 billion.

The Adviser is entitled to a fee, which is calculated daily and paid monthly, at
an annual rate of .32% of the average daily net assets of each Portfolio. The
Adviser has voluntarily agreed to waive all or a portion of its fees and
reimburse expenses in order to limit the total operating expenses of each
Portfolio to not more than .39% of each Portfolio's average daily net assets.
The Adviser reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to terminate this
voluntary fee waiver at any time.

For the Short-Term Maturity Portfolio, for the fiscal years ended May 31, 2000,
May 31, 1999 and May 31, 1998, the fees paid to the Adviser were $89,879,
$92,279, and $94,844, respectively, of which $73,521, $64,568, and $58,416, were
waived, respectively. For the Adjustable Rate Portfolio, for the fiscal years
ended May 31, 2000, May 31, 1999 and May 31, 1998, the fees paid to the Adviser
were $373,004, $383,888, and $417,610, respectively, of which $284,321,
$257,017, and $258,218, were waived, respectively.

The Advisory Agreement provides that the Adviser shall not be protected against
any liability to the Trust or its Shareholders by reason of willful misfeasance,
bad faith or gross negligence on its part in the performance of its duties or
from reckless disregard of its obligation or duties under the Advisory
Agreement.

The continuance of the Advisory Agreement, must be specifically approved at
least annually (i) by the vote of the Trustees, and (ii) by the vote of a
majority of the Trustees who are not parties to the Advisory Agreement or
"interested persons" of any party thereto, cast in person at a meeting called
for the purpose of voting on such approval. The Advisory Agreement will
terminate automatically in the event of its assignment, and is terminable at any
time without penalty by the Trustees of the Trust or, with respect to each
Portfolio, by a majority of the outstanding shares of that Portfolio, on not
less than 30 days' nor more than 60 days' written notice to the Adviser, or by
the Adviser on 90 days' written notice to the Trust.

THE ADMINISTRATOR

SEI Investments Mutual Funds Services (the Administrator) and the Trust are
parties to an administration agreement (the Administration Agreement). Under the
terms of the Administration Agreement, the

S-10
<PAGE>

Administrator provides the Trust with overall administrative services (other
than investment advisory services) including all necessary office space,
equipment, personnel and facilities.

The Trust pays the Administrator a fee, which is calculated at an annual rate
which is the greater of, (i) $250,000, or (ii) .09% of the average daily net
assets of the Trust up to $750 million, and .0725% of the average daily net
assets of the Trust exceeding $750 million.

For the Short-Term Maturity Portfolio, for the fiscal years ended May 31, 2000,
May 31, 1999 and May 31, 1998, the fees paid to the Administrator and
Shareholder Servicing Agent by the Portfolio, were $52,760, $47,919, and
$39,341, respectively. For the Adjustable Rate Portfolio, for the fiscal years
ended May 31, 2000, May 31, 1999 and May 31, 1998, (i) the fees paid to the
Administrator and Shareholder Servicing Agent by the Portfolio, were $197,924,
$187,484, and $174,659, respectively.

The Administration Agreement provides that the Administrator shall not be liable
for any error of judgment or mistake of law or for any loss suffered by the
Trust in connection with the matters to which the Administration Agreement
relates, except a loss resulting from willful misfeasance, bad faith or gross
negligence on the part of the Administrator in the performance of its duties or
from reckless disregard by it of its duties and obligations under the
Administration Agreement.

The Administration Agreement shall continue in effect for successive periods of
one year subject to review by the Trustees of the Trust.

The Administrator, a Delaware business trust, has its principal business offices
at Oaks, PA 19456. SEI Investments Management Corporation (SIMC), a wholly-owned
subsidiary of SEI Investments Company (SEI Investments), is the owner of all
beneficial interest in the Administrator. SEI Investments and its subsidiaries

PURCHASE AND REDEMPTION OF SHARES

Purchase and redemption of shares of either Portfolio may be made on any day on
which both the NYSE and the Federal reserve wire system are open for business (a
Business Day) by placing orders with the Distributor.

The minimum initial investment in either Portfolio of the Trust is $100,000.
There is no minimum for subsequent investments.

S-13
<PAGE>

A purchase order will be effective as of the day received by the Distributor if
the Distributor receives the order before 4:00 p.m., Eastern time, and the
Custodian receives federal funds before 12:00 p.m., Eastern time on the next
Business Day.

The purchase price of shares of a Portfolio is the net asset value next
determined after a purchase order is received by the Trust. The net asset value
per share of a Portfolio is determined by dividing the total market value of a
Portfolio's investments and other assets, less any liabilities, by the total
outstanding shares of the Portfolio. Net asset value per share is determined as
of the regularly-scheduled close of normal trading on the NYSE (normally, 4:00
p.m., Eastern time) on each Business Day. See "Determination of Net Asset
Value." Purchases will be made in full and fractional shares of a Portfolio
calculated to three decimal places.

Shares may be offered only to residents of those states in which such shares are
eligible for purchase. Shareholders who desire to redeem shares of either
Portfolio must place their redemption orders prior to 4:00 p.m., Eastern time on
any Business Day for the order to be accepted on that Business Day. The
redemption price of the shares is the net asset value of the Portfolio next
determined after receipt by the Distributor of the redemption order. Payment on
redemption will be made as promptly as possible and, in any event, within seven
days after the redemption order is received, as required by the 1940 Act. It is
currently the Trust's policy to pay for redemptions in cash.

The Trust reserves the right to suspend the right of redemption and/or to
postpone the date of payment upon redemption for any period on which trading on
the NYSE is restricted, or during the existence of an emergency (as determined
by the SEC by rule or regulation) as a result of which disposal or valuation of
the Portfolio's securities is not reasonably practicable, or for such other
periods as the SEC has by order permitted. The Trust also reserves the right to
suspend sales of shares of a Portfolio for any period during which the NYSE, the
Adviser, the Administrator and/or the Custodian are not open for business for
any reason. The New York Stock Exchange will not open in observance of the
following holidays: New Year's Day; Martin Luther King, Jr., Day; Presidents'
Day; Good Friday; Memorial Day; Independence Day; Labor Day; Thanksgiving; and
Christmas. In addition, the Federal Reserve observes the following holidays:
Columbus Day and Veterans' Day.

Purchase and redemption orders may be placed by telephone. The Trust, its
transfer agent or sub-agent will not be responsible for any loss, liability,
cost or expense for acting upon wire instructions or upon telephone instructions
that it reasonably believes to be genuine. The Trust, its transfer agent and
sub-agent may each employ reasonable procedures to confirm that instructions
communicated by telephone are genuine, including requiring a form of personal
identification prior to acting upon instructions received by telephone and
recording telephone instructions. The Trust, the Trust's transfer agent or
sub-agent may be liable for losses resulting from fraudulent or unauthorized
instructions if it does not employ these procedures. If market conditions are
extraordinarily active, or other extraordinary circumstances exist, Shareholders
who experience difficulties placing redemption orders by telephone may wish to
consider placing their redemption orders by other means.

DIVIDENDS

Substantially all of the net investment income (not including capital gains) of
each Portfolio is distributed in the form of monthly dividends to Shareholders.
Net investment income consists of accrued interest and any general income of the
Trust allocated to a Portfolio, less the estimated expenses of such Portfolio
and the general expenses of the Trust allocated to such Portfolio during a
particular period. Dividends are declared daily, just prior to a determination
of net asset value. If a purchase order is placed on the preceding Business Day,
shares begin earning dividends on the Business Day federal funds payment is
received by the Custodian. If a purchase order and federal funds are received
the same Business Day, shares begin earning dividends on the next Business Day.
Currently, capital gains of a Portfolio, if any, will be distributed at least
annually.

Shareholders automatically receive all income dividends and capital gain
distributions in additional shares at the net asset value next determined unless
the Shareholder has elected at the time of initial investment to

S-14
<PAGE>

take such payments in cash. Shareholders may change their election by providing
written notice to the Administrator at least 15 days prior to the change.
Dividends and distributions of each Portfolio are paid on a per share basis.

DETERMINATION OF NET ASSET VALUE

As described previously, the net asset value per share of each Portfolio is
calculated by adding the value of securities and other assets, subtracting
liabilities and dividing by the number of outstanding shares.

Pursuant to policies established by the Board of Trustees of the Trust, the
Administrator values the securities of each Portfolio based upon valuations
provided by brokers or an independent pricing service. The pricing service
relies primarily on prices of actual market transactions as well as trader
quotations. However, the service may also use a matrix system to determine
valuations of fixed income securities, which system considers such factors as
security prices, yields, maturities, call features, ratings and developments
relating to specific securities in arriving at valuations. The procedures of the
pricing service and its valuations are reviewed by the officers of the Trust
under the general supervision of the Board of Trustees. Securities and other
assets for which market prices are either (i) not readily available or not
obtained, or (ii) deemed by the Adviser to be materially inaccurate, are valued
at fair value as determined in good faith under procedures established by the
Board of Trustees.

PERFORMANCE

From time to time, each Portfolio may advertise its yield and total return.
These figures will be based on historical earnings and are not intended to
indicate future performance. The 30-day yield of a Portfolio refers to the
annualized income generated by an investment in the Portfolio over a specified
30-day period. The 30-day yield is calculated by assuming that the income
generated by the investment during that period is generated over one year and is
shown as a percentage of the investment. See "Computation of Yield."

The total return of a Portfolio refers to the average compounded rate of return
to a hypothetical investment, for designated time periods (including, but not
limited to, the period from which the Portfolio commenced operations through the
specified date), assuming that the entire investment is redeemed at the end of
each period and assuming the reinvestment of all dividend and capital gain
distributions. See "Calculation of Total Return."

Each Portfolio's performance may from time to time be compared to other mutual
funds tracked by mutual fund rating services, to broad groups of comparable
mutual funds or to unmanaged indices which may assume reinvestment of dividends
but generally do not reflect deductions for administrative and management costs.
Indices that may be used include: for the Short-Term Maturity Portfolio, Lipper
Short Term U.S. Government Index and 1 year Constant Maturity Treasury
Adjustable Rate (CMT); and for the Adjustable Rate Portfolio, Lipper Adjustable
Rate Mortgage Index, 1 month London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR), 1 year CMT,
Effective Fed Funds Rate and 30-day Donoghue Index.

COMPUTATION OF YIELD

The 30-day yield for a Portfolio is calculated by assuming that the income
generated by the Portfolio's investment during that 30-day period is generated
each period over one year and is shown as a percentage of the investment. In
particular, yield will be calculated according to the following formula: Yield =
2 [((a - b)/(cd)+ 1)6 - 1] where a = dividends and interest earned during the
period; b = expenses accrued for the period (net of reimbursement); c = the
average daily number of shares outstanding during the period that were entitled
to receive dividends; and d = the maximum offering price per share on the day of
the period.

For the 30-day period ended May 31, 2000, the yield for each Portfolio was:
Short-Term Portfolio, 5.58% and Adjustable Rate Portfolio, 6.00%.

S-15
<PAGE>

CALCULATION OF TOTAL RETURN

Total return will be calculated according to the following formula: P(1 + T)n =
ERV, where P = a hypothetical initial payment of $1,000; T = average annual
total return; n = number of years; and ERV = ending redeemable value of a
hypothetical $1,000 payment made at the beginning of the designated time period
as of the end of such period. For the fiscal year ended May 31, 2000, the total
return for each Portfolio was: Short-Term Maturity Portfolio, 4.24% and
Adjustable Rate Portfolio, 4.65%. For the five year period ended May 31, 2000,
the average annual total return for each portfolio was: Short-Term Maturity
Portfolio, 5.54% and Adjustable Rate Portfolio, 5.57%. For the period from June
15, 1992 (commencement of operations) through May 31, 2000, the average annual
total return for each Portfolio was: Short-Term Maturity Portfolio, 4.94% and
Adjustable Rate Portfolio, 5.07%.

FEDERAL TAXES

The following discussion of certain federal income tax consequences is based on
the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the Code) and the regulations
issued thereunder as in effect on the date of this Statement of Additional
Information. New legislation, as well as administrative changes or court
decisions, may significantly change the conclusions expressed herein, and may
have a retroactive effect with respect to the transactions contemplated herein.

No attempt has been made to present a detailed explanation of the federal, state
or local income tax treatment of the Portfolios or their Shareholders. State and
federally chartered credit unions meeting all the requirements of Section 501
(c)(14)(A) of the Code, and the regulations promulgated thereunder, generally
are exempt from federal income taxation on income, dividends and capital gains
realized as a result of purchasing, holding or redeeming shares of the Trust.
Shareholders are, however, urged (but not required) to consult their tax
advisors regarding specific questions as to federal, state and local income tax
consequences of investing in shares of the Portfolios including, without
limitation, issues relating to unrelated business income taxes. Much of the
disclosure set forth is applicable only to Shareholders who are subject to
federal income tax and would be applicable to a Shareholder if such Shareholder
failed to qualify as a state or federally chartered credit union under Section
501(c)(14)(A) of the Code.

Tax Status of the Portfolios:

Each Portfolio is treated as a separate entity for federal income tax purposes
and is not combined with the Trust's other Portfolio. Each Portfolio intends to
qualify for the special tax treatment afforded regulated investment companies
(RICs) under the Code, so that it will be relieved of federal income tax on that
part of its net investment income and net capital gains (the excess of long-term
capital gain over short-term capital loss) which is distributed to Shareholders.
The Board of Trustees reserves the right not to maintain the qualification of
each Portfolio as a regulated investment company if it determines such course of
action to be beneficial to Shareholders.

Tax Status of Distributions:

Each Portfolio intends to distribute all of its net investment income
(including, for this purpose, net short-term capital gain) to Shareholders.
Dividends from net investment income will be taxable to Shareholders subject to
tax as ordinary income whether received in cash or in additional shares. Any net
capital gain will be distributed annually and will be taxed to Shareholders
subject to tax as long-term capital gain, regardless of how long the Shareholder
has held shares. Each Portfolio will make annual reports to Shareholders of the
federal income tax status of all distributions.

In order to qualify for treatment as a RIC under the Code, each Portfolio must
distribute annually to its Shareholders at least the sum of 90% of any net
tax-exempt income plus 90% of its investment company taxable income (generally,
net investment income plus net short-term capital gain) and also must meet
several additional requirements. Among these requirements are the following: (i)
at least 90% of the Portfolio's gross income each taxable year must be derived
from dividends, interest, payments with respect

S-16
<PAGE>

to securities loans, and gains from the sale or other disposition of stock or
securities, or certain other related income; (ii) at the close of each quarter
of the Portfolio's taxable year, at least 50% of the value of its total assets
must be represented by cash and cash items, United States Government securities,
securities of other RICs and other securities, with such other securities
limited, in respect to any one issuer, to an amount that does not exceed 5% of
the value of the Portfolio's assets and that does not represent more than 10% of
the outstanding voting securities of such issuer; and (iii) at the close of each
quarter of the Portfolio's taxable year, not more than 25% of the value of its
assets may be invested in securities (other than United States Government
securities or the securities of other RICs) of any one issuer or two or more
issuers which the Portfolio controls and which are engaged in the same, similar,
or related trades or businesses. The Adviser may reimburse the Trust for certain
costs incurred. If for any taxable year a Portfolio does not qualify for the
special tax treatment afforded RICS, all of its taxable income will be subject
to federal income tax at corporate rates without any deduction for distributions
to its Shareholders and such distributions generally will be taxable as ordinary
dividends to the extent of the Portfolio's earnings and profits. In this event,
distributions generally will be eligible for the dividends-received deduction.

Notwithstanding the distribution requirement described above, a Portfolio will
be subject to a nondeductible 4% federal excise tax to the extent it fails to
distribute by the end of any calendar year 98% of its ordinary income for that
year and 98% of its capital gain net income (the excess of short and long-term
capital gains over short and long-term capital losses) for the one-year period
ending on October 31 of that year, plus certain other amounts. Each Portfolio
intends to make sufficient distributions prior to the end of each calendar year
to avoid liability for federal excise tax. However, each Portfolio can give no
assurances that its distributions will be sufficient to eliminate all taxes.

Dividends declared by a Portfolio in October, November or December of any year
and payable to Shareholders of record on a date in that month will be deemed to
have been paid by the Portfolio and received by the Shareholder on December 31
of that year, if paid by the Portfolio at any time during the immediately
succeeding January. Shareholders who have not held their Portfolio shares for a
full year should be aware that each Portfolio may designate and distribute, as
ordinary income or capital gain, a percentage of income that is not equal to the
actual amount of such income earned during the period of investment in that
Portfolio.

If a Portfolio's distributions exceed its taxable income and capital gains
realized during a taxable year, all or a portion of the distributions made in
the same taxable year may be recharacterized as a return of capital to
Shareholders. A return of capital distribution will generally not be taxable,
but will reduce each Shareholder's cost basis in Portfolio shares and result in
higher reported capital gain or lower reported capital loss when those shares on
which the distribution was received are sold.

Sales, Exchanges or Redemptions of Portfolio Shares:

Sale, exchange or redemption of Portfolio shares is a taxable event to the
Shareholder. If you redeem your shares, you may realize a taxable gain or loss
on your redemption or exchange. If you hold your shares as a capital asset, the
gain or loss that you realize will be capital gain or loss and will be long-term
or short-term, generally depending on how long you hold your shares. Any loss
incurred on the redemption or exchange of shares held for six months or less
will be treated as a long-term capital loss to the extent of any long-term
capital gains distributed to you by the Portfolio on those shares. All or a
portion of any loss that you realize upon the redemption of your portfolio
shares will be disallowed to the extent that you buy other shares in the
Portfolio (through reinvestment of dividends or otherwise) within 30 days before
or after your share redemption. Any loss disallowed under these rules will be
added to the tax basis in the newly purchased shares.

STATE TAXES

Depending upon state and local law, distributions by the Portfolios to
Shareholders and the ownership of shares may be subject to state and local
taxes. Shareholders are urged to consult their tax advisors as to the
consequences of these and other state and local tax rules affecting an
investment in the Portfolios.

GENERAL INFORMATION

THE TRUST

The Declaration of Trust under which the Trust was organized permits the Trust
to offer separate portfolios of shares. All consideration received by the Trust
for shares of any portfolio and all assets of such portfolio belong only to that
portfolio and would be subject only to liabilities related thereto.

Each Portfolio pays its expenses, including fees of its service providers, audit
and legal expenses, expenses of preparing prospectuses, proxy solicitation
material and reports to shareholders, costs of custodial services, registering
the shares under federal securities laws, and making notice filings under state
securities laws, pricing, insurance expenses, litigation and other extraordinary
expenses, brokerage costs, interest charges, taxes and organization expenses.

DESCRIPTION OF SHARES

The Declaration of Trust authorizes the issuance of an unlimited number of
shares of a Portfolio, each of which represents an equal proportionate interest
in that Portfolio with each other share of the Portfolio. Shares are entitled
upon liquidation to a pro rata share in the net assets of the respective
Portfolio. Shareholders have no preemptive rights. The Declaration of Trust
provides that the Board of Trustees of the Trust may create additional series of
shares. All consideration received by the Trust for shares of any additional
series and all assets in which such consideration is invested would belong to
that series and would be subject to the liabilities related thereto. Share
certificates representing shares will not be issued.

SHAREHOLDER LIABILITY

The Trust is an entity of the type commonly known as a "Massachusetts business
trust." Under Massachusetts law, shareholders of such a trust could, under
certain circumstances, be held personally liable as partners for the obligations
of the trust. Even if, however, the Trust were held to be a partnership, the
possibility of the Shareholders incurring financial loss for that reason appears
remote because (i) the Trust's Declaration of Trust contains an express
disclaimer of Shareholder liability for obligations of the Trust and requires
that notice of such disclaimer be given in each agreement, obligation or
instrument entered into or executed by or on behalf of the Trust or the
Trustees, and (ii) the Declaration of Trust provides for indemnification out of
the Trust property for any Shareholder held personally liable for the
obligations of the Trust.

LIMITATION OF TRUSTEES' LIABILITY

The Declaration of Trust provides that a Trustee shall be liable for his or her
own willful defaults and shall not be liable for any neglect or wrongdoing of
any officer, agent, employee, investment adviser, administrator, principal
underwriter or custodian. The Declaration of Trust also provides that the Trust
will indemnify its Trustees and officers against liabilities and expenses
incurred in connection with actual or threatened litigation in which they may be
involved because of their offices with the Trust, unless it is determined in the
manner provided in the Declaration of Trust that they have not acted in good
faith in the reasonable belief that their actions were in the best interests of
the Trust. However, nothing in the Declaration of Trust shall protect or
indemnify a Trustee against any liability for his or her willful misfeasance,
bad faith, gross negligence or reckless disregard of his or her duties.

CODE OF ETHICS

The Board of Trustees of the Trust has adopted a Code of Ethics pursuant to Rule
17j -1 under the 1940 Act. In addition, the Investment Adviser and Distributor
have adopted Codes of Ethics pursuant to Rule 17j - 1. These Codes of Ethics
apply to the personal investing activities of trustees, officers and certain
employees ("access persons"). Rule 17j-1 and the Codes are designed to prevent
unlawful practices in connection with the purchase or sale of securities by
access persons. Under each Code of Ethics, access persons are permitted to
engage in personal securities transactions, but are required to report their
personal

S-18
<PAGE>

securities transactions for monitoring purposes. In addition, certain access
persons are required to obtain approval before investing in initial public
offerings or private placements. A copy of the Trust's Code of Ethics is on file
with the Securities and Exchange Commission, and is available to the public.

VOTING RIGHTS

Each share of a Portfolio held entitles the Shareholder of record to one vote
on all matters voted on by the Shareholders of such Portfolio. Each Portfolio
will vote separately on matters relating solely to that Portfolio. As a
Massachusetts business trust, the Trust is not required to hold annual meetings
of Shareholders but approval will be sought for certain changes in the operation
of the Trust and for the election of Trustees under certain circumstances. In
addition, a Trustee may be removed by a majority vote of the remaining Trustees
or by a majority vote of Shareholders at a special meeting called upon written
request of Shareholders owning at least 10% of the outstanding shares of the
Trust. In the event that such a meeting is requested, the Trust will provide
appropriate assistance and information to the Shareholders requesting the
meeting. Voting by proxy is permitted.

REPORTING

The Trust will send to its Shareholders annual and semi-annual reports; the
financial statements appearing in annual reports are audited by independent
public accountants. The Trust furnishes proxy statements and other reports to
Shareholders of record.

SHAREHOLDER INQUIRIES

Shareholder inquiries should be directed to the Adviser, 7920 Belt Line Road,
Suite 1100, Dallas, TX 75240.

PORTFOLIO TRANSACTIONS

The Adviser selects brokers or dealers to execute transactions for the purchase
or sale of portfolio securities on the basis of its judgment of their
professional capability to provide the service. The primary consideration is to
have brokers or dealers execute transactions at best price and execution. Best
price and execution refers to many factors, including the price paid or received
for a security, the transaction cost, the promptness and reliability of
execution, the confidentiality and placement accorded the order and other
factors affecting the overall benefit obtained by the account on the
transaction. The determination of what are reasonably competitive rates is based
upon the professional knowledge of the Adviser as to rates paid and charged for
similar transactions throughout the securities industry. In some instances, the
Trust may pay a minimal transaction cost when the transaction presents no
difficulty. Trades are generally made on a net basis where the Trust either buys
securities directly from the dealer or sells them to the dealer. In these
instances, there is no direct commission charged but there is a spread (the
difference between the buy and sell price) which is the equivalent of a
commission.

The money market securities in which the Portfolios invest are traded primarily
in the over-the-counter market. Longer term debt securities are usually traded
over-the-counter, but may be traded on an exchange. Where possible, the Adviser
will deal directly with the dealers who make a market in the securities involved
except in those circumstances where better prices and execution are available
elsewhere. Such dealers usually are acting as principal for their own account.
On occasion, securities may be purchased directly from the issuer. Money market
securities are generally traded on a net basis and do not normally involve
either brokerage commissions or transfer taxes. The cost of executing portfolio
securities transactions of the Trust will primarily consist of dealer spreads.

The Adviser may place a combined order for two or more accounts or Portfolios
engaged in the purchase or sale of the same security if, in its judgment, joint
execution is in the best interest of each participant and will result in best
price and execution. Transactions involving commingled orders are allocated in a
manner deemed equitable to each account or Portfolio. It is believed that the
ability of the accounts to participate in volume transactions will generally be
beneficial to the accounts and Portfolios. Although it is

S-19
<PAGE>

recognized that, in some cases, the joint execution of orders could adversely
affect the price or volume of the security that a particular account or trust
may obtain, it is the opinion of the Adviser and the Board of Trustees that the
advantages of combined orders outweigh the possible disadvantages.

Consistent with the Conduct Rules of the National Association of Securities
Dealers, Inc., and subject to seeking best price and execution, the Adviser may
place orders with broker/dealers which have agreed to defray certain Trust
expenses such as custodian fees.

It is expected that the Portfolios may execute brokerage or other agency
transactions through the Distributor, a registered broker-dealer, or the Adviser
in conformity with the 1940 Act, the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as
amended, and rules promulgated by the SEC. Under these provisions, the
Distributor or the Adviser is permitted to receive and retain compensation for
effecting portfolio transactions for the Trust on an exchange if a written
contract is in effect between the Distributor or the Adviser and the Trust
expressly permitting the Distributor or the Adviser to receive and retain such
compensation. These rules further require that commissions paid to the
Distributor or the Adviser by the Trust for exchange transactions not exceed
"usual and customary" brokerage commissions. The rules define "usual and
customary" commissions to include amounts which are "reasonable and fair
compared to the commission, fee or other remuneration received or to be received
by other brokers in connection with comparable transactions involving similar
securities being purchased or sold on a securities exchange during a comparable
period of time." In addition, the Trust may direct business to one or more
designated broker/dealers in connection with such broker/dealer's provision of
services to the Trust or payment of certain Trust expenses (e.g., custody,
pricing and professional fees). The Trustees, including those who are not
"interested persons" of the Trust, have adopted procedures for evaluating the
reasonableness of compensation paid to the Distributor or the Adviser and will
review these procedures periodically.

The Trust is required to identify any securities of its "regular broker or
dealers" (as such term is defined in the Investment Company Act) which the Trust
has acquired during its most recent fiscal year.

5% SHAREHOLDERS

As of September 1, 2000, the following persons were the only persons who were
record owners (or to the knowledge of the Trust, beneficial owners) of 5% or
more of the shares of the Portfolios. The Trust believes that most of the shares
referred to below were owned by the indicated entities both of record and
beneficially.

As of September 1, 2000, Southwest Corporate Federal Credit Union owned of
record 89.97% and 86.93% of the outstanding voting securities of the Adjustable
Rate Portfolio and the Short-Term Maturity Portfolio, respectively. Southwest
Corporate Federal Credit Union has voting or investment power with respect to
such voting securities. Consequently, under the 1940 Act, Southwest Corporate
Federal Credit Union may be deemed to be a controlling person of the Adjustable
Rate Portfolio and Short-Term Maturity Portfolio. To the best of the knowledge
of the Trust, Southwest Corporate Federal Credit Union's ownership of such
voting securities is for investment only, not for purposes of control, but may
materially affect the voting rights of other Shareholders.

APPENDIX

DESCRIPTION OF RATINGS

FITCH RATING DEFINITIONS

AAA Bonds 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 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+'.

MOODY'S RATING DEFINITIONS

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 edged." 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 are generally
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 risk
appear somewhat larger than the Aaa securities.

STANDARD & POOR'S RATINGS GROUP DEFINITIONS

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 debt only in small degree.

THOMSON BANKWATCH RATING DEFINITIONS

AAA The highest category; indicates that the ability to repay principal and
interest on a timely basis is very high.

AA The second-highest category; indicates a superior ability to repay
principal and interest on a timely basis, with limited incremental risk
compared to issues rated in the highest category.

ITEM 24. PERSONS CONTROLLED BY OR UNDER COMMON CONTROL WITH REGISTRANT

control relationships. The Administrator is a subsidiary of SEI Corporation
which also controls the Distributor of the Registrant, SEI Investments
Distribution Co. and other corporations engaged in providing various financial
and record keeping services, primarily to bank trust departments, pension plan
sponsors and investment managers.

ITEM 25. INDEMNIFICATION:

Article VIII of the Agreement and Declaration of Trust (originally
filed as Exhibit No. 1 to Registrant's Registration Statement on December 2,
1991) is incorporated herein by reference. Insofar as indemnification for
liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Act"),
may be permitted to trustees, directors, officers and controlling persons of the
Registrant by the Registrant pursuant to the Registrant's Agreement and
Declaration of Trust or otherwise, the Registrant is aware that in the opinion
of the Securities and Exchange Commission, such indemnification is against
public policy as expressed in the Act and, therefore, is unenforceable. In the
event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the
payment by the Registrant of expenses incurred or paid by trustees, officers or
controlling persons of the Registrant in connection with the successful defense
of any act, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such trustees, officers or
controlling persons in connection with the shares being registered, the
Registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been
settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction
the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as
expressed in the Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such
issues.

ITEM 26. BUSINESS AND OTHER CONNECTIONS OF INVESTMENT ADVISER:
