2. Please replace the paragraph "Investment Company Securities" on page 5 with
the following:
"INVESTMENT COMPANY SECURITIES. In connection with the management of
daily cash positions, each Fund may invest in securities issued by
other investment companies that invest in short-term debt securities
and that seek to maintain a $1.00 net asset value per share (i.e.,
"money market funds"). Securities of other investment companies will be
acquired within limits prescribed by the Investment Company Act of
1940, as amended (the "1940 Act"). These limitations, among other
matters, restrict investments in securities of other investment
companies to no more than 10% of the value of a Fund's total assets,
with no more than 5% invested in the securities of any one investment
company. As a shareholder of another investment company, a Fund would
bear along with other shareholders in that investment company, its pro
rata portion of the other investment company's expenses, including
advisory fees. When investing in other investment companies, certain
fund expenses, such as custodian fees and administrative fees, may be
duplicated (that is, these expenses would be in addition to the
expenses each Fund bears directly in connection with its own
operations). The Adviser will waive its investment advisory fee on
those Fund assets that are invested in securities of other investment
companies. The TREASURY MONEY FUND will invest only in money market
funds which invest in securities of the same or better quality as those
in which the TREASURY MONEY FUND may invest."
