                         - MUNDER ACCELERATING GROWTH FUND

                                 480 PIERCE STREET
                            BIRMINGHAM, MICHIGAN  48009
                                          
                                   April __, 1998
                                          
Dear Shareholder:

     The Board of Trustees of The Munder Funds Trust has recently reviewed and
unanimously endorsed a proposal for the reorganization of the Munder
Accelerating Growth Fund (the "Fund") which they judge to be in the best
interests of the Fund's shareholders.  This proposal calls for the acquisition
of the assets of the Fund by the Munder Multi-Season Growth Fund ("Munder Growth
Fund"), which has investment objectives and policies similar to those of the
Fund in exchange for shares of the Munder Growth Fund, followed by the complete
liquidation of the Fund.

     We have therefore called a Special Meeting of Shareholders to be held at
480 Pierce Street, Birmingham, Michigan 48009 on May __, 1998 to consider this
transaction.  WE STRONGLY INVITE YOUR PARTICIPATION BY ASKING YOU TO REVIEW,
COMPLETE AND RETURN YOUR PROXY AS SOON AS POSSIBLE.

     As a result of this transaction, the Fund would be combined with Munder
Growth Fund and you would become a shareholder of Munder Growth Fund, receiving
shares of Munder Growth Fund having an aggregate net asset value equal to the
aggregate net asset value of your investment in the Fund.  No sales charge will
be imposed in the transaction and the closing of the transaction will be
conditioned upon receiving an opinion of counsel to the effect that the proposed
transaction will qualify as a tax-free reorganization for federal income tax
purposes.

     Munder Growth Fund, like the Fund, seeks long-term capital appreciation. 
The Fund and Munder Growth Fund have a common investment adviser (Munder Capital
Management), a common administrator (State Street Bank and Trust Company) and a
common distributor (Funds Distributor, Inc.).

     Detailed information about the proposed transaction and the reasons for it
are contained in the enclosed materials.  Please exercise your right to vote by
completing, dating and signing the enclosed proxy card.  A self-addressed,
postage-paid envelope has been enclosed for your convenience.  IT IS VERY
IMPORTANT THAT YOU VOTE AND THAT YOUR VOTING INSTRUCTIONS BE RECEIVED NO LATER
THAN MAY __, 1998.


<PAGE>

     NOTE:  You may receive more than one proxy package if you hold Fund shares
in more than one account.  You must return separate proxy cards for separate
holdings.  We have provided postage-paid return envelopes for each, which
require no postage if mailed in the United States.


                                   Sincerely,

                                   Lee P. Munder

                              TO BE HELD ON MAY __, 1998

To the shareholders of
     Munder Accelerating Growth Fund
     of The Munder Funds Trust:

     NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN that a Special Meeting of Shareholders of The Munder
Accelerating Growth Fund (the "Fund") of The Munder Funds Trust, will be held at
480 Pierce Street, Birmingham, Michigan 48009 [ON MAY __, 1998], for the
following purposes:

     1.   To consider and vote on approval of an Agreement and Plan of

Fund"), a series of The Munder Funds, Inc., in exchange for shares of Munder
Growth Fund and assumption of certain identified liabilities of the Fund by
Munder Growth Fund, and for the distribution of such shares to shareholders of
the Fund in liquidation of the Fund; and

     2.   To transact such other business as may properly come before the
meeting, or any adjournment or adjournments thereof.

     The Board of Trustees has fixed the close of business on April __, 1998, 
as the Record Date for determination of shareholders entitled to notice of, 
and to vote at, the meeting.

     EACH SHAREHOLDER WHO DOES NOT EXPECT TO ATTEND THE MEETING IN PERSON IS

                         THE MUNDER MULTI-SEASON GROWTH FUND

                                    (800) 239-3334

     This Prospectus/Proxy Statement is being furnished to shareholders of the
Munder Accelerating Growth Fund (the "Fund"), a series of The Munder Funds Trust
(the "Trust"), in connection with a proposed Agreement and Plan of
Reorganization (the "Plan"), which includes the termination of the Fund
following the transfer of all or substantially all of the assets of the Fund. 
The Plan is being submitted to shareholders of the Fund for consideration at a
Special Meeting of Shareholders to be held at 480 Pierce Street, Birmingham,
Michigan  48009 on May __, 1998 (the "Meeting").  The Plan provides for the
acquisition of all or substantially all of the assets of the Fund by the Munder
Multi-Season Growth Fund ("Munder Growth Fund"), a series of The Munder Funds,
Inc., (the "Company") in exchange for shares of Munder Growth Fund and the
assumption by Munder Growth Fund of certain identified liabilities of the Fund. 
Following this acquisition, the Fund will be terminated, all remaining
liabilities of the Fund will be satisfied (whether by payment or the
establishment of reasonable reserves for payment) and shares of Munder Growth
Fund will be distributed to shareholders of the Fund (these transactions
collectively referred to as the "Reorganization").

     As a result of the proposed Reorganization, each shareholder of the Fund
will receive that number of shares of Munder Growth Fund having an aggregate net
asset value equal to the aggregate net asset value of such shareholder's shares
of the Fund.  Holders of Class A shares in the Fund will receive Class A shares
of Munder Growth Fund, and no sales charge will be imposed on the Class A shares
of Munder Growth Fund received by Fund shareholders.  Holders of Class B and
Class C Shares in the Fund will receive shares of the corresponding class of
Munder Growth Fund.  Subsequent to the transaction, any contingent deferred
sales charge ("CDSC") which is applicable to a shareholder's investment in Class
B or Class C shares of the Fund will continue to apply, and, in calculating the
applicable CDSC, the period during which a Fund shareholder held Class B or
Class C shares of the Fund will be counted.  Holders of Class


<PAGE>

K shares and Class Y shares of the Fund will receive shares of the corresponding
class of Munder Growth Fund without the imposition of any sales charge.

     This transaction is being structured as a tax-free reorganization.  See
"Information About the Reorganization - Federal Income Tax Consequences." 
Shareholders should consult their tax advisers to determine the actual impact of
the Reorganization in light of their individual tax circumstances.

open-end management investment company.  Munder Growth Fund's investment
objective is to provide shareholders with long-term capital appreciation.  It
seeks to achieve this objective by investing primarily in a diversified

                           COMMON QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS 
                         ABOUT THE PROPOSED REORGANIZATION
                                          
Q.  HOW WILL THE REORGANIZATION AFFECT ME?

A.  The assets of the Fund will be combined with those of Munder Growth Fund
    and you will become a shareholder of Munder Growth Fund.  You will receive
    shares of Munder Growth Fund equal in value at the time of issuance to the
    shares of the Fund that you hold immediately prior to the Reorganization. 
    (Shareholders of Class A shares, Class B shares, Class C shares, Class K
    shares, and Class Y shares of the Fund will receive Class A shares, Class B
    shares, Class C shares, Class K shares, and Class Y shares, respectively,
    of Munder Growth Fund.)

Q.  WHY IS THE REORGANIZATION BEING RECOMMENDED?


A.  The primary purposes of the proposed Reorganization are to seek to achieve
    future economies of scale and eliminate certain costs associated with
    operating the Fund and Munder Growth Fund separately.  These two funds have
    similar investment objectives and policies, as described in detail below. 
    The Reorganization will result in combining the assets of the funds and
    consolidating their operations.

    Combining the assets of the funds is intended to provide various benefits
    to shareholders of the Fund who become shareholders of Munder Growth Fund
    (as well as to existing and future investors of Munder Growth Fund).  For
    example, higher asset levels should enable Munder Growth Fund to spread
    fixed and relatively fixed costs, such as accounting, legal, and printing
    expenses, over a larger asset base, thereby reducing per-share expense
    levels. (See also next question regarding operating expenses of the funds.)
    Higher asset levels also should benefit portfolio management by permitting
    larger individual portfolio investments that may result in reduced
    transaction costs and/or more favorable pricing and by providing the
    opportunity for greater portfolio diversity.

Q.  HOW WILL THE FEES PAID BY MUNDER GROWTH FUND COMPARE TO THOSE PAYABLE BY
    THE FUND?

A.  The total per share operating expenses of the Munder Growth Fund are higher
    than those of the Fund.  However, Munder Capital Management has agreed to
    waive its fees and/or reimburse the Munder Growth Fund for expenses until
    at least June 30, 1999 so that the expense ratio of Munder Growth Fund will
    not exceed that of the Fund as of its most recent fiscal year ended June
    30, 1997.  In addition, Munder Capital Management anticipates that the
    aggregate fees and expenses of Munder Growth Fund will, over time, be
    reduced due to increased economies of scale resulting from the larger
    aggregate net asset base of the combined entity.

<PAGE>

Q.  WILL I HAVE TO PAY ANY SALES LOAD, COMMISSION OR OTHER TRANSACTIONAL FEE IN
    CONNECTION WITH THE REORGANIZATION?

A.  No.  The full value of your shares of the Fund will be exchanged for shares
    of the indicated class of Munder Growth Fund without any sales load,
    commission or other transactional fee being imposed.  Each of the Funds
    will bear its own expenses in connection with the reorganization.

Q.  WHO WILL SERVE AS INVESTMENT ADVISER AND PROVIDE OTHER SERVICES TO MUNDER
    GROWTH FUND?

A.  Munder Growth Fund has the same adviser (Munder Capital Management) and the
    same distributor (Funds Distributor, Inc.) as the Fund.  State Street Bank
    and Trust Company currently serves as administrator to both the Fund and
    Munder Growth Fund.

Q.  WILL I HAVE TO PAY ANY FEDERAL INCOME TAXES AS A RESULT OF THE
    REORGANIZATION?

A.  The transaction is intended to qualify as a tax-free reorganization for
    federal income tax purposes.  Assuming the Reorganization qualifies for 
    such treatment; shareholders would not recognize taxable gain or loss as 
    a result of the Reorganization.  As a condition to the closing of the 
    Reorganization, the Fund will receive an opinion of counsel to the effect 
    that the Reorganization will qualify as a tax-free reorganization for 
    federal income tax purposes.  You should separately consider any state, 
    local and other tax consequences in consultation with your tax adviser. 
    Opinions of counsel are not binding on the IRS or the courts.


Q.  WOULD I CONTINUE TO BE ABLE TO EXCHANGE MY SHARES FOR SHARES OF OTHER FUNDS
    OF THE MUNDER FAMILY OF MUTUAL FUNDS?

A.  Yes.  Holders of Class A, Class B, Class C, Class K and Class Y shares of
    the Munder Growth Fund can exchange their shares for shares of the same
    class of other funds of the Company, the Trust and The Munder Framlington
    Funds Trust, subject to certain restrictions described in the prospectus of
    each fund.  Before requesting any such exchange, shareholders should
    carefully review the applicable prospectus for the other fund to ensure
    that the fund meets their investment objectives and needs.

                                       SUMMARY

    This summary is qualified in its entirety by reference to the additional

October 29, 1997, the Prospectus of Munder Growth Fund and the Fund (Class K

Fund (Class Y shares) dated October 29, 1997 (copies of which accompany this

PROPOSED REORGANIZATION

    The Plan provides for the transfer of all or substantially all of the
assets of the Fund in exchange for shares of Munder Growth Fund and the
assumption by Munder Growth Fund of certain identified liabilities of the Fund
(as reflected on a balance sheet of the Fund prior to the Closing Date).  The
Plan also calls for the termination of the Fund and the distribution of shares
of Munder Growth Fund to shareholders of the Fund. (The foregoing proposed
transaction is referred to in this Prospectus/Proxy Statement as the
"Reorganization.")  As a result of the Reorganization, each shareholder of the
Fund will become the owner of that number of full and fractional shares of
Munder Growth Fund having an aggregate net asset value equal to the aggregate
net asset value of the shareholder's shares of the Fund as of the close of
business on the date that the Fund's assets are exchanged for shares of Munder
Growth Fund.  (Shareholders of Class A Shares, Class B Shares, Class C Shares,
Class K Shares, and Class Y Shares of the Fund will receive Class A shares,
Class B shares, Class C shares, Class K shares, and Class Y shares,
respectively, of Munder Growth Fund.)  See "Information About the
Reorganization."

    For the reasons set forth below under "Reasons for the Reorganization," the
Trustees of The Trust, including all of the Trustees who are not "interested
persons", as that term is defined in the Investment Company Act of 1940, as
amended (the "1940 Act"), have concluded that the Reorganization would be in the
best interests of the shareholders of the Fund and that the interests of the
Fund's existing shareholders would not be diluted as a result of the
Reorganization, and therefore have submitted the Plan for approval to the Fund's
shareholders.  The Trustees of the Trust recommend approval of the Plan
effecting the Reorganization.  The Board of Directors of the Company has also
approved the Reorganization on behalf of Munder Growth Fund.

    Approval of the Reorganization will require the affirmative vote of the
holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of the Fund with all classes
voting together and not by class.  See "Voting Information."

INVESTMENT OBJECTIVES, POLICIES AND RESTRICTIONS  

    The Fund and Munder Growth Fund have generally similar investment
objectives, policies and restrictions.  The primary investment objective of the
Fund is to provide long-term capital appreciation; income is a secondary
objective. The Fund seeks to achieve these objectives by investing primarily in
equity securities of companies that have demonstrated the potential for
accelerated earnings growth, the maintenance of a substantial competitive
advantage, a focused management team and a stable balance sheet.  The investment
objective of Munder Growth Fund is to provide long-term capital appreciation. 
It seeks to achieve this objective by investing primarily in a diversified
portfolio of equity securities of companies that have demonstrated superior,
long-term earnings growth, financial stability, attractive valuation, and
relative price momentum.

    Although the respective investment objectives of the Fund and Munder Growth
Fund are generally similar, shareholders of the Fund should consider certain
differences in the investment

policies of, and portfolio securities held by, each fund.  See "Comparison of
Investment Objectives and Policies."

(1)  Investments of $1 million or more in Class A shares of the Fund or Munder
     Growth Fund are not subject to an initial sales charge; however, a CDSC of
     1% is imposed in the event of certain redemption transactions within one
     year following such investments.  A CDSC on Class A shares of Munder Growth
     Fund acquired by holders of Class A Shares of the Fund pursuant to the
     Reorganization will only be imposed on redemptions on which a CDSC would
     have applied to the Class A Shares of the Fund.

(2)  Munder Capital Management expects to voluntarily waive a portion of its
     advisory fee for the current fiscal year.  Without waivers, the ratio of
     advisory fees to average net assets would be 1.00% and total fund operating
     expenses would be 1.50% for Class A, 2.25% for Class B, 2.25% for Class C,
     1.50% for Class K and 1.25% for Class Y.

(3)  After the Reorganization, Munder Capital Management has agreed to waive its
     advisory fee and/or reimburse Munder Growth Fund for expenses until at
     least June 30,  1999 so that the expense ratios of each class of Munder
     Growth Fund will not exceed the expense ratios of the corresponding classes
     of the Fund as of the Fund's most recent fiscal year ended June 30, 1997. 
     In the absence of this waiver, the advisory fee would be 1.00% for each
     class; and, based on the pro forma combined assets of the Fund and the
     Munder Growth Fund as of December 31, 1997, pro forma total fund operating
     expenses would be 1.37% for Class A shares, 2.13% for Class B shares, 2.13%
     for Class C shares, 1.37% for Class K shares, and 1.12% for Class Y shares.

(4)  If redeemed within one year of purchase.

PURCHASE AND REDEMPTION PROCEDURES

     The following discussion describes differences in the minimum investment
requirements, charges, and waivers of charges applicable to the various classes
of the Fund and the Munder Growth Fund.  For details on how to purchase or
redeem shares of either fund, see the Prospectus.  Both Munder Growth Fund and
the Fund reserve the right to involuntarily redeem an investor's Class A, Class
B or Class C shares if the net asset value of such shares is less than $500 by
reason of redemption.

     CLASS A SHARES.  The minimum initial investment for Class A shares of
Munder Growth Fund and the Fund is $250 ($50 for shares purchased through an
Automatic Investment Plan) and subsequent investments must be at least $50.

     Class A shares of Munder Growth Fund and the Fund are sold to investors at
net asset value plus an initial sales charge at a maximum rate of 5.5% of the
offering price.  No initial sales charge will be imposed on the Class A shares
of Munder Growth Fund received by holders of the Fund's Class A Shares in the
Reorganization.

     The following table shows the initial sales charge schedule for Class A
shares of Munder Growth Fund and Class A Shares of the Fund.

*    No initial sales charge applies on investments of $1 million or more, but a
     contingent deferred sales charge of 1% is imposed on certain redemptions
     within one year of purchase.

**   A 1% commission will be paid by the distributor to dealers who initiate and
     are responsible for purchases of $1 million or more.

     Purchases of Class A shares of any non-money market fund of the Company,
the Trust and The Munder Framlington Funds Trust will be aggregated in
determining the initial sales charge, which may result in a reduced initial
sales charge.

The initial sales charge on Class A shares of Munder Growth Fund and the Fund is
currently waived on shares that are acquired through the exchange of Class A
shares of other funds of the Company, the Trust or the Munder Framlington Funds
Trust.  The initial sales charge is also currently waived on sales of Class A
shares to the following types of purchasers:

     (1)  individuals with an investment account or relationship with Munder
          Capital Management;

     (2)  full-time employees and retired employees of Munder Capital
          Management, employees of the funds' service providers and immediate
          family members of such persons;

     (3)  registered broker-dealers that have entered into selling agreements
          with Funds Distributor, Inc. (the "Distributor"), for their own
          accounts or for retirement plans for their employees or sold to
          registered representatives for full-time employees (and their
          families) that certify to the Distributor at the time of purchase that
          such purchase is for their own account (or for the benefit of their
          families);

     (4)  certain qualified employee benefit plans as described in the
          Prospectus;


                                         -11-
<PAGE>

     (5)  individuals who reinvest a distribution from a qualified retirement
          plan for which Munder Capital Management serves as investment advisor;

     (6)  individuals who reinvest the proceeds of redemptions from Class Y
          Shares of the Funds of the Trust, the Company or the Munder
          Framlington Funds Trust, within 60 days of redemption;

     (7)  banks and other financial institutions that have entered into
          agreements with the Trust, the Company or the Munder Framlington Funds
          Trust to provide shareholder services for customers ("Customers")
          (including Customers of such banks and other financial institutions,
          and the immediate family members of such Customers); 

     (8)  fee-based financial planners or employee benefit plan consultants
          acting for the accounts of their clients;

     (9)  employer sponsored retirement plans which are administered by
          Universal Pensions, Inc. ("UPI Plans"); and 

     (10) employer sponsored 401(k) plans that are administered by Merrill Lynch
          Group Employee Services ("Merrill Lynch Plans") which meet certain
          criteria described in the Prospectus."

     The sales charges on Class A shares of Munder Growth Fund and the Fund may
be reduced through a letter of intent, quantity discounts and the right of
accumulation, as described in the Prospectus.

     Both Class A Shares of the Fund and Class A shares of Munder Growth Fund
may be redeemed without the imposition of a contingent deferred sales charge
("CDSC"), except where such shares were purchased without an initial sales load
and redeemed under the following circumstances:  a CDSC of 1% applies to certain
redemptions of Class A shares of Munder Growth Fund or the Fund that were
purchased without a sales charge by reason of a purchase of $1 million or more,
if such redemptions are made within the first year after investing.  For
purposes of determining whether a CDSC applies, the holding period of Class A
shares of Munder Growth Fund acquired by holders of Class A Shares of the Fund
through the Reorganization will be calculated from the date that the Class A
Shares of the Fund were initially acquired.  A CDSC on Class A shares of Munder
Growth Fund acquired by holders of Class A Shares of the Fund pursuant to the
Reorganization will only be imposed on redemptions on which a CDSC would have
applied to the Class A Shares of the Fund.  The CDSC applicable to Class A
shares is waived for certain redemptions, as described in the Prospectus.

     CLASS B SHARES.  The minimum initial investment for Class B shares of the
Fund and Munder Growth Fund is $250 ($50 for shares purchased through an
Automatic Investment Plan) and subsequent investments must be at least $50.


                                         -12-
<PAGE>

     Class B shares of Munder Growth Fund and the Fund are sold without an
initial sales charge, but are subject to a CDSC upon certain redemptions and are
subject to higher ongoing expenses than Class A shares.  Class B shares
automatically convert to Class A shares approximately six years after issuance
subject to receipt of certain tax rulings or opinions.

     Class B shares of Munder Growth Fund and the Fund that are redeemed within
six years of purchase will be subject to a CDSC calculated by multiplying the
lesser of the original purchase price or the net asset value of such shares at
the time of redemption by the applicable percentage shown in the table below:

     The holding period of Class B shares of Munder Growth Fund acquired through
the Reorganization by holders of Class B Shares of the Fund will be calculated
from the date that the Class B Shares of the Fund were initially acquired.

     The CDSC is waived on the following types of redemptions: (1)  redemptions
made within one year after the death of a shareholder or registered joint owner;
(2) minimum required distributions made from an IRA or other retirement plan
account after you reach age 70 1/2; and (3) involuntary redemptions made by the
Fund.  Additional CDSC waivers are described in the prospectus.

     CLASS C SHARES.  The minimum investment for Class C shares of the Fund and
Munder Growth Fund is $250 ($50 for shares purchased through an Automatic
Investment Plan) and subsequent investments must be at least $50.  Class C
shares are sold without an initial or a contingent deferred sales charge, except
for a CDSC of 1% for redemptions made within the first year after investing. 
The CDSC applicable to Class C Shares is waived for certain redemptions, as
described in the Prospectus.

CLASS K SHARES.  Class K Shares of Munder Growth Fund and the Fund are sold
without a sales load to customers of banks and other institutions that have
entered into agreements with the funds providing for shareholder services for
their customers.  Customers may include


                                         -13-
<PAGE>

individuals, trusts, partnerships and corporations.  No CDSC is imposed upon
redemption of Class K shares.

     CLASS Y SHARES. Class Y shares of the Fund and Munder Growth Fund are sold
without a sales load to: (1) fiduciary and discretionary accounts of
institutions; (2) institutional investors (including banks, savings
institutions, credit unions and other financial institutions, pension, profit
sharing and employee benefit plans and trusts, insurance companies, investment
companies, investment advisors and broker-dealers acting either for their own
accounts or for the accounts of institutional investors); (3) directors,
trustees, officers and employees of the Trust, the Company, The Munder
Framlington Funds Trust, Munder Capital Management and the Distributor; (4)

     The minimum initial investment by fiduciary and discretionary accounts of
institutions and institutional investors for Class Y shares of the Fund and
Munder Growth Fund is $500,000.  Other types of investors are not subject to any
minimum required investment.

     EXCHANGE PRIVILEGES

     Shareholders of Munder Growth Fund may exchange shares of each class for
shares of the same class in other funds of the Company, the Trust and the Munder
Framlington Funds Trust to the extent the class exists and shares are offered
for sale in the shareholder's state of residence and subject to any applicable
sales charge.  No exchange fee will be imposed on any of these exchange
privileges.  Any exchange will be a taxable event for which a shareholder may
have to recognize a gain or loss under Federal income tax law. Munder Growth 
Fund reserves the right to amend or terminate the exchange privilege after
providing notice to shareholders.  See "Exchanges" in the accompanying
Prospectuses of Munder Growth Fund. 

     DIVIDENDS

     Munder Growth Fund intends to distribute at least annually substantially
all of its investment income to shareholders.  Net realized capital gains, if
any, will be distributed at least annually to shareholders.  All dividends and
distributions will be reinvested automatically in additional shares of Munder
Growth Fund at net asset value, without a sales charge or CDSC, unless the
shareholder elects to be paid in cash.  Fund shareholders that have elected to
receive distributions in cash will continue to receive distributions in such
manner from Munder Growth Fund.  See "Dividends and Distributions" in the
accompanying Prospectus of Munder Growth Fund.

     The Fund declares and pays dividends from net investment income, if any,
quarterly, and distributes net realized capital gains, if any, at least
annually.  Distributions are paid in additional shares of the same class of the
Fund, unless a shareholder requests to be paid in cash. As described in more 
detail in the Prospectus and Statement of Additional Information, such 
dividends are generally subject to Federal income tax.

     TAX CONSEQUENCES

     Prior to completion of the Reorganization, the Fund will have received from
counsel an opinion to the effect that the Reorganization will qualify as a
tax-free reorganization for Federal income tax purposes.  See "Information about
the Reorganization - Federal Income Tax Consequences."

     SHAREHOLDER VOTING RIGHTS

     Neither Munder Growth Fund, a series of a Maryland corporation, nor the
Fund, a series of a Massachusetts business trust, holds annual shareholder
meetings.  The 1940 Act requires that a shareholder meeting be called for the
purpose of electing Directors/Trustees at such time as fewer than a majority of
Directors/Trustees holding office have been elected by shareholders.  Either
fund will hold a shareholder meeting upon the written request of shareholders
holding at least 10% of that fund's outstanding shares.  See "Comparative
Information on Shareholders' Rights - Voting Rights."

     APPRAISAL RIGHTS  

     Under the laws of the State of Maryland, shareholders of Munder Growth Fund
do not have appraisal rights in connection with a combination or acquisition of
the assets of another fund.  Under the laws of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts
and the Trust's Declaration of Trust, shareholders of the Fund do not have
appraisal rights in connection with a combination or acquisition of the assets
of the Fund by another entity.

     RISK FACTORS  

     Because Munder Growth Fund and the Fund have generally similar investment
objectives and investment policies, they are subject to similar investment
risks.  These risks include those that are generally associated with investing
in equity securities.  See "Comparison of Investment Objectives and Policies"
herein and "Fund Choices - Multi-Season Growth Fund" in the accompanying
Prospectus of Munder Growth Fund.

     REASONS FOR THE REORGANIZATION

     Currently, the Fund and Munder Growth Fund are investment portfolios of
separate mutual fund companies.  Although the funds have substantially similar
investment objectives, policies and restrictions, each must separately bear the
costs of its operations.  Consolidating their separate operations should
generally benefit the shareholders of the funds by promoting more efficient
operations on a more cost-effective basis.  Also, combining assets of the funds
should create future economies of scale resulting from the larger asset base of
the combined fund after the Reorganization.  However, there can be no assurance
that the combination of the funds will produce more efficient operations on a
cost-effective basis or that economies of scale will be realized.  Because of
the similarities between the funds, the considerations and risks involved with
an investment in Munder Growth Fund are expected to be comparable to those
associated with an investment in the Fund.


                                         -15-
<PAGE>

     In addition, the funds now have a common investment adviser, Munder Capital
Management, a common distributor, Funds Distributor, Inc. and a common
administrator, State Street Bank and Trust Company.  Munder Capital Management
became the investment adviser to the Fund and Munder Growth Fund upon the
consolidation of the investment advisory businesses of Woodbridge Capital
Management, Inc. (a subsidiary of Comerica Bank, and the Fund's former
investment adviser), Munder Capital Management, Inc. (Munder Growth Fund's
former investment adviser), and another investment advisory subsidiary of
Comerica Bank.  In addition, in connection with that transaction, the
Distributor, which already served as the Fund's distributor, became the
distributor for Munder Growth Fund.  Since the two funds have similar investment
objectives, Munder Capital Management also asserted that it would be useful to
combine the assets of the two funds in an effort to better coordinate their
marketing efforts.  Munder Capital Management also indicated that certain
investment management efficiencies and other benefits could be realized through
the combination of the funds.

     The Reorganization, therefore, would permit each fund's shareholders to
pursue substantially the same investment goals in a larger fund.  A larger fund
should enhance the ability of Munder Capital Management to effect portfolio
transactions on more favorable terms and give Munder Capital Management greater
investment flexibility and the ability to select a larger number of portfolio
securities with the attendant benefits of increased diversification.  A larger
fund should not be as significantly affected by high levels of shareholder
redemptions.  In addition, the larger aggregate net assets should enable the
combined entity to obtain the benefits of economies of scale, permitting the
reduction of certain costs and expenses which may result in lower overall
expense ratios through the spreading of fixed costs of operations over a larger
asset base.  As a general rule, economies of scale can be expected to be
realized with respect to fixed expenses, such as costs of printing and fees for
professional services, although expenses that are based on the value of assets
or the number of shareholder accounts, such as custody fees, would be largely
unaffected by the Reorganization.  Moreover, there can be no assurance that
economies of scale can be realized.  Since the total per share operating
expenses of Munder Growth Fund before fee waivers and reimbursements are higher
than those of the Fund, Munder Capital Management has agreed to waive its fees
and/or reimburse Munder Growth Fund for expenses until at least June 30, 1999,
so that the expense ratio of Munder Growth Fund will not exceed that of the Fund
as of its most recent fiscal year ended June 30, 1997.

     In light of the foregoing considerations, the Trustees of the Trust
unanimously concluded that the Reorganization is in the best interests of the
Fund and its shareholders and that the Reorganization would not result in a
dilution of shareholders' interests.

     Upon consideration of the factors described above, the Board of Directors
of the Company also approved the Reorganization and determined that it is in the
best interests of Munder Growth Fund and its shareholders to acquire the assets
of the Fund, and that the interests of Munder Growth Fund's shareholders would
not be diluted as a result of the Reorganization.

     PLAN OF REORGANIZATION


                                         -16-
<PAGE>

     The following summary of the Plan is qualified in its entirety by reference
to the Plan which is attached as Exhibit A hereto.  The Plan provides that (1)
Munder Growth Fund will acquire all or substantially all of the assets of the
Fund in exchange for shares of Munder Growth Fund, (2) Munder Growth Fund will
assume certain identified liabilities of the Fund on May __, 1998 or such later
date as may be agreed upon by the parties (the "Closing Date"), (3) the Fund
will be terminated in accordance with the terms of the Agreement and Declaration
of Trust of the Trust, (4) all remaining liabilities of the Fund will be
satisfied whether by payment or the making of reasonable provision for payment
thereof, (5) Munder Growth Fund shares will be distributed to shareholders of
the Fund.  Prior to the Closing Date, the Fund will endeavor to discharge all of
its known liabilities and obligations.  Munder Growth Fund will not assume any
liabilities or obligations of the Fund other than those reflected in an
unaudited statement of assets and liabilities of the Fund prepared as of the
close of regular trading on the New York Stock Exchange, Inc. (the "NYSE"),
currently 4:00 p.m. New York time, on the Closing Date.  The number of full and
fractional Class A shares, Class B shares, Class C shares, Class K, and Class Y
shares of Munder Growth Fund to be issued to the Fund shareholders will be
determined on the basis of the relative net asset values of each class of shares
of Munder Growth Fund and the Fund, computed as of the close of regular trading
on the NYSE on the Closing Date.  The net asset value per share for each class
will be determined by dividing assets attributable to the class, less
liabilities, by the total number of outstanding shares of the class.

     Both the Fund and Munder Growth Fund will utilize State Street Bank and
Trust Company as agent to determine the value of their respective portfolio
securities. The Fund and Munder Growth Fund also will use the same independent
pricing services to determine the value of each security so that State Street
Bank and Trust Company, as agent, can determine the aggregate value of each
fund's portfolio.  The method of valuation employed will be as set forth in the
funds' Prospectuses which is consistent with Rule 22c-1 under the 1940 Act and
with the interpretations of such rule by the SEC's Division of Investment
Management.

     As soon after the Closing Date as conveniently practicable, the Fund will
liquidate and will distribute pro rata to shareholders of record as of the close
of business on the Closing Date the full and fractional shares of Munder Growth
Fund received by the Fund.  Such distribution will be accomplished by the
establishment of accounts in the names of the Fund's shareholders on the share
records of Munder Growth Fund's transfer agent.  Each account will represent the
respective pro rata number of full and fractional shares of Munder Growth Fund
due to the Fund's respective shareholders.  After such distribution and the
winding up of its affairs, the Fund will be terminated.

     The consummation of the Reorganization is subject to the conditions set
forth in the Plan.  Notwithstanding approval of the Fund's shareholders, the
Plan may be terminated at any time at or prior to the Closing Date by (1) mutual
agreement of the Fund and Munder Growth Fund or (2) either party to the Plan
upon a material breach by the other party of any representation, warranty or
agreement contained therein or the failure to meet closing conditions.

<PAGE>

     The Fund and Munder Growth Fund shall each be liable for its respective
expenses incurred in connection with entering into and carrying out the Plan,
whether or not the Reorganization is consummated.

     Approval of the Plan will require the affirmative vote of a majority of the
outstanding shares of the Fund with all classes voting together and not by
class.  If the Reorganization is not approved by shareholders of the Fund,
Munder Capital Management may recommend to the Trustees of the Trust other
possible courses of action for their consideration.


     DESCRIPTION OF MUNDER GROWTH FUND'S SHARES  

     Full and fractional shares of the respective class of shares of common
stock of Munder Growth Fund will be issued to the Fund's shareholders in
accordance with the procedures detailed in the Plan and as described in Munder
Growth Fund's Prospectus.  Generally, Munder Growth Fund does not issue share
certificates to shareholders unless a specific request is submitted to Munder
Growth Fund's transfer agent.  The shares of Munder Growth Fund to be issued to
Fund shareholders and registered on the shareholder records of the transfer
agent will have no pre-exemptive or conversion rights.  However, six years after
the date of purchase, Class B shares of Munder Growth Fund will convert
automatically to Class A shares, based on the relative net asset values of
shares of each class, and will no longer be subject to a distribution fee. 
Holders of Class B Shares of the Fund who receive Class B shares of Munder
Growth Fund pursuant to the Reorganization will convert to Class A shares of the
Munder Growth Fund at the end of six years after the original date of purchase
of the Class B shares of the Fund, based on the relative net asset values of
Class A and Class B shares of Munder Growth Fund.  See "Comparative Information
on Shareholders' Rights" and Munder Growth Fund's Prospectus for additional
information with respect to the shares of Munder Growth Fund.

     FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSEQUENCES  

     The Reorganization is intended to qualify for federal income tax purposes
as a tax-free reorganization described in Section 368(a) of the Internal Revenue
Code of 1986, as amended ("Code"), with no gain or loss recognized as a
consequence of the Reorganization by Munder Growth Fund, the Fund, or the
shareholders of the Fund.  As a condition to the closing of the Reorganization,
Munder Growth Fund and the Fund will receive an opinion from the law firm of
Dechert Price & Rhoads to that effect.  That opinion will be based upon certain
assumptions and representations made by the Fund and Munder Growth Fund.

     Shareholders of the Fund should consult their tax advisers regarding the
effect, if any, of the proposed Reorganization in light of their individual
circumstances.  Since the foregoing discussion only relates to the federal
income tax consequences of the Reorganization, shareholders of the Fund should
also consult their tax advisers as to state and other local tax consequences, if
any, of the Reorganization.

                  COMPARISON OF INVESTMENT OBJECTIVES AND POLICIES
                                          
     The following discussion comparing investment objectives, policies and
restrictions of the Fund and Munder Growth Fund is based upon and qualified in
its entirety by the respective investment objectives, policies and restrictions
sections of the Prospectuses of the Fund and Munder Growth Fund.  For a more
detailed discussion of the investment objectives, policies and restrictions of
the Fund and Munder Growth Fund, refer to the Prospectuses, under the caption
"Fund Choices," and to the Statement of Additional Information for the Fund and
Munder Growth Fund under the captions "Fund Investments" and "Investment
Limitations."

     INVESTMENT OBJECTIVES

     The primary investment objective of the Fund is to provide long-term
capital appreciation; income is a secondary objective.  The investment objective
of Munder Growth Fund is to provide long-term capital appreciation.  The Fund's
investment objectives may be changed by the Trust's Board of Trustees without
shareholder approval; however, shareholders are notified of any such change. 
Munder Growth Fund's investment objective is a fundamental policy and may not be
changed without the authorization of the holders of a majority of the
outstanding voting securities (as defined in the 1940 Act) of Munder Growth
Fund.


                                         -20-
<PAGE>

     PRIMARY INVESTMENTS

     The Fund primarily invests in a diversified portfolio of equity securities
of companies that have demonstrated the potential for accelerated earnings
growth, the maintenance of substantial competitive advantage, a focused
management team and a stable balance sheet.

     Munder Growth Fund primarily invests in a diversified portfolio of equity
securities of companies that have demonstrated superior long-term earnings
growth, financial stability, attractive valuation and relative price momentum. 
Income is not a primary consideration in the selection of investments.  This
style, which incorporates both growth investing and value constraints, has been
recognized in the investment management community as GARP (Growth at a
Reasonable Price) and seeks to produce attractive returns during various market
environments.

     Under normal market conditions, at least 65% of each fund's total assets
will be invested in equity securities. Equity securities include common and
preferred stocks and securities convertible into or exchangeable for common
stocks, such as convertible preferred stocks, convertible debentures or
warrants.  No more than 25% of the total assets of either fund may be invested
in securities of issuers in the same industry.  Neither fund may purchase more
than 10% of the outstanding voting securities of any issuer, except that up to
25% of a fund's total assets may be invested without regard to this limitation.

     PORTFOLIO INSTRUMENTS AND PRACTICES

     BORROWING.  Under certain circumstances, each fund may borrow money in an
amount up to 5% of the value of its total assets for temporary purposes and in
an amount equal to one-third of its assets to meet redemptions.  This is a
fundamental policy which can only be changed by shareholders.  Whenever
borrowings exceed 5% of either fund's total assets, that fund will not make any
additional investments.

     LENDING.  Each fund may lend securities in its portfolio representing up to
25% of total assets, taken at market value, to securities firms and financial
institutions, provided that each loan is secured continuously by collateral in
the form of cash or liquid securities with market value at least equal (on a
daily mark-to-market basis) to the current market value of the securities
loaned.

     FOREIGN SECURITIES.  Each fund may invest up to 25% of its total assets in
the equity securities of foreign issuers, including companies domiciled in
developing countries.  Munder Growth Fund typically will only purchase foreign
securities that are represented by American Depositary Receipts ("ADRs") listed
on a domestic securities exchange or included in the NASDAQ National Market
System, or foreign securities listed directly on a domestic securities exchange
or included in the NASDAQ National Market System.

     FORWARD FOREIGN CURRENCY EXCHANGE CONTRACTS.  Each fund may enter into
forward foreign currency exchange contracts.  A fund may enter into these
contracts in order to protect against uncertainty in the level of future
exchange rates between a particular foreign currency and


                                         -21-
<PAGE>

the U.S. dollar or between two foreign currencies in which portfolio securities
are or may be denominated.

     FUTURES CONTRACTS AND OPTIONS.  Each fund may purchase and sell futures
contracts on securities, currencies and indices.  Neither fund will commit more
than 5% of its total assets to initial margin deposits on futures contracts.  In
addition, each fund may write covered call options, purchase put options,
purchase call options and write secured put options on securities, currencies,
indices and futures contracts.  The Fund will write call options only if they
are "covered," as described in the Statement of Additional Information; Munder
Growth Fund may write uncovered call options for cross-hedging purposes, as
described in the Statement of Additional Information.  Munder Growth Fund will
limit its investment in uncovered put and call options to 5% of its total
assets, and will not purchase put or call options if aggregate premiums paid for
such options would exceed 20% of its total assets.

     REPURCHASE AGREEMENTS, REVERSE REPURCHASE AGREEMENT, AND WHEN-ISSUED
TRANSACTIONS.  Each fund may enter into repurchase agreements with banks and
broker-dealers that have been approved by the directors of the Company and the
trustees of the Trust.  Each fund considers repurchase agreements that mature in
more than seven days to be illiquid.  Neither fund may invest more than 15% of
its net assets in illiquid securities.

     In order to borrow funds for temporary purposes, each fund may also engage
in reverse repurchase agreements, i.e., selling portfolio securities to
financial institutions such as banks and broker/dealers and agreeing to
repurchase them at a mutually specified date and price.  In addition, in order
to secure prices deemed advantageous at the time, each fund may purchase
securities on a when-issued or a delayed-delivery basis.  A fund will not enter
into a when-issued or delayed-delivery transaction for speculative purposes but
only in furtherance of its investment objective.  Each fund's when-issued or
delayed-delivery purchase transactions will not exceed 25% of the value of the
fund's total assets absent unusual market conditions.

     LIQUIDITY MANAGEMENT.  In connection with the management of its daily cash
position, each fund may invest in shares of money market funds.  Pending
investment, to meet anticipated redemption requests, or as a temporary defensive
measure if Munder Capital Management determines that market conditions warrant,
either fund may also invest without limitation in high-quality, short-term money
market instruments including, among other things, commercial paper, bankers'
acceptances and negotiable certificates of deposit of banks or savings and loan
associations, short-term corporate obligations and short-term securities issued
by, or guaranteed by, the U.S. Government and its agencies or instrumentalities.

     RESTRICTED SECURITIES.  Each fund may invest in restricted securities. 
Restricted securities are securities subject to legal or contractual
restrictions on their resale.

     PORTFOLIO TURNOVER RATE.  Munder Growth Fund intends to purchase and hold
securities for long-term capital appreciation and does not expect to trade for
short-term gain.  Accordingly, it is anticipated that Munder Growth Fund's
annual portfolio turnover rate normally will not


                                         -22-
<PAGE>

exceed 50%.  The Fund's portfolio turnover rate for the fiscal year ended June
30, 1997 was 88%. Munder Growth Fund's portfolio turnover rate for the same
period was 33%.

     ADDITIONAL INVESTMENT RESTRICTIONS. In addition to the restrictions
described above, each fund has adopted certain fundamental investment
restrictions that may be changed only with the approval of a majority of the
outstanding securities (as defined in the 1940 Act) of that fund.  These
restrictions are set forth in the Statement of Additional Information for the
funds.

                  COMPARATIVE INFORMATION ON SHAREHOLDERS' RIGHTS
                                          
     GENERAL

     Munder Growth Fund is a diversified series of the Company, a management
investment company registered under the 1940 Act, which continuously offers
shares of its series.  The Company is a Maryland corporation and is governed by
its Articles of Incorporation, By-laws and Board of Directors.


     The Fund is a diversified series of the Trust, an open-end management
investment company registered under the 1940 Act, which continuously offers
shares of its series  The Trust is a Massachusetts business trust and is
governed by its Declaration of Trust, Code of Regulations, and Board of
Trustees.  Both the Fund and Munder Growth Fund are also governed by applicable
state and Federal law.  Certain differences and similarities between the two
funds are summarized below.

     SHAREHOLDER LIABILITY  

     The Munder Growth Fund is organized as a series of a Maryland corporation,
and its shareholders generally have no personal liability for its acts or
obligations.

     The Fund is organized as a series of a Massachusetts business trust.  Under
Massachusetts law, shareholders of a Massachusetts business trust could, under
certain circumstances, be held personally liable for the obligations of the
trust.  However, the Trust's Declaration of Trust states that shareholders shall
not be subject to any personal liability in connection with the assets of the
Trust for the acts or obligations of the Trust.  The Declaration of Trust
provides for indemnification out of the assets belonging to the series of the
Trust with respect to which such shareholder's shares are issued, for all losses
and expenses of any shareholder held personally liable for the obligations of
the Trust solely by reason of his or her being or having been a shareholder. 
Thus, the risk of a shareholder incurring financial loss on account of
shareholder liability is considered remote since it is limited to circumstances
in which a disclaimer is inoperative and the Fund itself would be unable to meet
its obligations.

     VOTING RIGHTS  

     Neither the Fund nor Munder Growth Fund holds annual meetings of
shareholders, although each may hold special meetings for purposes of voting on
certain matters as required under the 1940 Act.  Special meetings of
shareholders of either fund may be called upon the


                                         -23-
<PAGE>

written request of holders of not less than 10% of that fund's then outstanding
voting securities.  On each matter submitted to a vote of the shareholders of
Munder Growth Fund or the Fund, each shareholder is entitled to one vote for
each whole share owned and a proportionate fractional vote for any fractional
share outstanding in the shareholder's name on the fund's books.  Shareholders
of all classes of each fund vote together as a fund, and not by class, except as
otherwise required by applicable law or by that fund's charter documents, or
when the matter affects only the interests of a particular class.

     LIQUIDATION OR DISSOLUTION  

     In the event of the liquidation or dissolution of either the Fund or Munder
Growth Fund, the shareholders of that fund are entitled to receive, when and as
declared by the Trustees or Directors, the excess of the assets over the
liabilities belonging to the fund.  The assets so distributed to shareholders of
a fund would be distributed among the shareholders in proportion to the number
of shares of that fund held by them and recorded on the books of the fund.


     LIABILITY OF DIRECTORS/TRUSTEES  

     The By-laws of the Company provide that the Company will indemnify
Directors and officers of the Company to the fullest extent permitted by
Maryland law and the 1940 Act.  The Declaration of Trust of the Trust provides
for similar indemnification of Trustees and officers of the Trust.  However,
neither the Declaration of Trust of the Trust nor the By-laws of the Company
purport to protect or indemnify a director/trustee or officer against any
liability to which such person would otherwise be subject by reason of willful
misfeasance, bad faith, gross negligence or reckless disregard of the duties
involved in the conduct of such person's office.

     RIGHTS OF INSPECTION

     Except as required by Maryland law, shareholders of the Munder Growth Fund
have only such right to inspect the records, documents, accounts and books of
Munder Growth Fund as may be granted by the Directors of the Company.  Maryland
corporate law provides that one or more persons who together have owned at least
5% of the outstanding shares of Munder Growth Fund for at least 6 months may, on
written request, inspect during usual business hours the books of account and
stock ledger of Munder Growth Fund.

     Shareholders of the Fund generally have the same rights to inspect the
records, accounts and books of the Trust as are permitted shareholders of a
Massachusetts corporation under Massachusetts corporation law.  Currently, each
shareholder of a Massachusetts corporation is permitted to inspect the records,
accounts and books of a corporation for any legitimate business purpose relative
to the affairs of the corporation.

     The foregoing is only a summary of certain characteristics of the
operations of Munder Growth Fund and the Fund, the Articles of Incorporation and
By-laws of the Company, the Declaration of Trust of the Trust, and Maryland and
Massachusetts law.  The foregoing is not a

complete description of the documents cited.  Shareholders should refer to the
provisions of such documents and state laws governing each fund for a more
thorough description.

     This Prospectus/Proxy Statement is furnished in connection with a
solicitation of proxies by the Trustees of the Trust to be used at the Meeting. 
This Prospectus/Proxy Statement, along with a Notice of the Meeting and a proxy
card, is first being mailed to shareholders of the Fund on or about April __,
1998.  Only shareholders of record as of the close of business on the Record

Meeting.  The holders of a majority of the shares of the Fund outstanding at the
close of business on the Record Date present in person or represented by proxy
will constitute a quorum for the Meeting.  If the enclosed form of proxy is
properly executed and returned in time to be voted at the Meeting, the proxies
named therein will vote the shares represented by the proxy in accordance with
the instructions marked thereon.  Unmarked proxies will be voted FOR the
proposed Reorganization and FOR any other matters deemed appropriate.  For
purposes of determining the presence of a quorum for transacting business at the
Meeting, abstentions and broker "non-votes" (that is, proxies from brokers or
nominees indicating that such persons have not received instructions from the
beneficial owner or other persons entitled to vote shares on a particular matter
with respect to which the brokers or nominees do not have discretionary power)
will be treated as shares that are present but which have not been voted.  A
proxy may be revoked at any time on or before the Meeting by written notice to
the Secretary of the Trust or by attending and voting at the Meeting.  Unless
revoked, all valid proxies will be voted in accordance with the specifications
thereon or, in the absence of such specifications, for approval of the Plan and
the Reorganization contemplated thereby.

     Approval of the Plan will require the affirmative vote of a majority of the
outstanding shares of the Fund with all classes voting together and not by
class.  Shareholders of the Fund are entitled to one vote for each share. 
Fractional shares are entitled to proportional voting rights.

     Proxies are solicited by mail.  Additional solicitations may be made by
telephone, telegraph or personal contact by officers or employees of Munder
Capital Management and its affiliates or by proxy soliciting firms retained by
Munder Capital Management.  [Munder Capital Management has retained Proxy
Advantage to provide proxy solicitation services in connection with the Meeting
at an estimated cost of $ 39, 000.  The cost of the solicitation will be borne
by the Fund and Munder Growth Fund.

     In the event that sufficient votes to approve the Reorganization are not
received by 10:00 a.m. on May __, 1998, the persons named as proxies may propose
one or more adjournments of the Meeting to permit further solicitation of
proxies.  In determining whether to adjourn the Meeting, the following factors
may be considered:  the percentage of votes actually cast, the percentage of
negative votes actually cast, the nature of any further solicitation and the
information to be provided to shareholders with respect to the reasons for the
solicitation.  Any such adjournment will require an affirmative vote by the
holders of a majority of the shares present in person or by proxy and entitled
to vote at the Meeting.  The persons named as proxies will vote upon such
adjournment after consideration of the best interests of all shareholders of the
Fund.

     The votes of the shareholders of Munder Growth Fund are not being
solicited, since their approval or consent is not necessary for the
Reorganization to take place.

1.   TRANSFER OF ALL OR SUBSTANTIALLY ALL OF THE ASSETS OF THE ACQUIRED FUND IN
EXCHANGE FOR ACQUIRING FUND SHARES, THE ASSUMPTION OF CERTAIN IDENTIFIED
ACQUIRED FUND LIABILITIES AND THE LIQUIDATION OF THE ACQUIRED FUND

     1.1  Subject to the terms and conditions herein set forth and on the basis
of the representations and warranties contained herein, the Acquired Fund agrees
to transfer all or substantially all of the Acquired Fund's assets as set forth
in paragraph 1.2 to the Acquiring Fund, and the Acquiring Fund agrees in
exchange therefor: (i) to deliver to the Acquired Fund the number of Class A
Acquiring Fund Shares, including fractional Class A Acquiring Fund Shares,
determined by dividing the value of the Acquired Fund's net assets attributable
to its Class A shares, computed in the manner and as of the time and date set
forth in paragraph 2.1, by the net asset value of one Acquiring Fund Class A
Share computed in the manner and as of the time and date set forth in paragraph
2.2; (ii) to deliver to the Acquired Fund the number of Class B Acquiring Fund
Shares, including fractional Class B Acquiring Fund Shares, determined by
dividing the value of the Acquired Fund's net assets attributable to its Class B
Shares, computed in the manner and as of the time and date set forth in
paragraph 2.1, by the net asset value of one Acquiring Fund Class B Share,
computed in the manner and as of the time and date set forth in paragraph 2.2;
(iii) to deliver to the Acquired Fund the number of Class C Acquiring Fund
Shares, including fractional Class C Acquiring Fund Shares, determined by
dividing the value of the Acquired Fund's net assets attributable to its Class C
Shares, computed in the manner and as of the time and date set forth in
paragraph 2.1, by the net asset value of one Acquiring Fund Class C Share,
computed in the manner and as of the time and date set forth in paragraph 2.2;
(iv) to deliver to the Acquired Fund the number of Class K Acquiring Fund
shares, including fractional Class K Acquiring Fund shares, determined by
dividing the value of the Acquired Fund's net assets attributable to its Class K
shares, computed in the manner and as of the time and date set forth in
paragraph 2.1, by the net asset value of one Acquiring Fund Class K share,
computed in the manner and as of the time and date set forth in paragraph 2.2;
(v) to deliver to the Acquired Fund the number of Class Y Acquiring Fund shares,
including fractional Class Y Acquiring Fund Shares, determined by dividing the
value of the Acquired Fund's net assets attributable to its Class Y Shares,
computed in the manner and as of the time and date set forth in paragraph 2.1,
by the net asset value of one Acquiring Fund class Y Share, computed in the
manner and as of the time and date set forth in paragraph 2.2; and (vi) to
assume certain liabilities of the Acquired Fund, as set forth in paragraph 1.3.
Such transactions shall take place at the closing provided for in paragraph 3.1
(the "Closing").

     1.2  (a)  The assets of the Acquired Fund to be acquired by the Acquiring
Fund shall consist of all or substantially all of the property including,
without limitation, such cash, securities, and dividend or interest receivables
which are owned by the Acquired Fund and any deferred or prepaid expenses shown
as an asset on the books of the Acquired Fund on the closing date provided in
paragraph 3.1 (the "Closing Date").

          (b)  The Acquired Fund has provided the Acquiring Fund with a list of
all of the Acquired Fund's assets as of the date of execution of this Agreement.
The Acquired Fund reserves the right to sell any of these securities but will
not, without the prior approval of the Acquiring Fund,


                                       -2-
<PAGE>


acquire any additional securities other than securities of the type in which 
the Acquiring Fund is permitted to invest; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that any sale 
that might call into question the Reorganization as a tax-free reorganization 
shall not be permitted.  The Acquiring Fund will, within a reasonable time 
prior to the Closing Date, furnish the Acquired Fund with a statement of the 
Acquiring Fund's investment objectives, policies and restrictions and a list 
of the securities, if any, on the Acquired Fund's list referred to in the 
first sentence of this paragraph which do not conform to the Acquiring Fund's 
investment objectives, policies and restrictions.  In the event that the 
Acquired Fund holds any investments which the Acquiring Fund may not hold, 
the Acquired Fund will dispose of such securities prior to the Closing Date.  
In addition, if it is determined that the portfolios of the Acquired Fund and 
the Acquiring Fund, when aggregated, would contain investments exceeding 
certain percentage limitations imposed upon the Acquiring Fund with respect 
to such investments, the Acquired Fund, if requested by the Acquiring Fund, 
will dispose of and/or reinvest a sufficient amount of such investments as 
may be necessary to avoid violating such limitations as of the Closing Date.

     1.3  The Acquired Fund will endeavor to discharge all the Acquired Fund's
known liabilities and obligations prior to the Closing Date.  The Acquiring Fund
shall assume all liabilities, expenses, costs, charges and reserves reflected on
an unaudited statement of assets and liabilities of the Acquired Fund prepared
by State Street Bank and Trust Company, as administrator of the Acquiring Fund
and the Acquired Fund, as of the Valuation Date (as defined in paragraph 2.1),
in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles consistently applied
from the prior audited period.  The Acquiring Fund shall assume only those
liabilities of the Acquired Fund reflected in that unaudited statement of assets
and liabilities and shall not assume any other liabilities not reflected
thereon.

     1.4  As provided in paragraph 3.4, as soon after the Closing Date as is
conveniently practicable (the "Liquidation Date"), the Acquired Fund will
liquidate and distribute pro rata to the Acquired Fund's shareholders of record
determined as of the close of business on the Closing Date (the "Acquired Fund
Shareholders") the Acquiring Fund Shares it receives pursuant to paragraph 1.1.
Such liquidation and distribution will be accomplished by the transfer of the
Acquiring Fund Shares then credited to the account of the Acquired Fund on the
books of the Acquiring Fund to open accounts on the share records of the
Acquiring Fund in the name of the Acquired Fund's shareholders and representing
the respective pro rata number of the Acquiring Fund Shares due such
shareholders.  All issued and outstanding shares of the Acquired Fund will
simultaneously be canceled on the books of the Acquired Fund.  The Acquiring
Fund shall not issue certificates representing the Acquiring Fund Shares in
connection with such exchange.

     1.5  Ownership of Acquiring Fund Shares will be shown on the books of the
Acquiring Fund's transfer agent.  Shares of the Acquiring Fund will be issued in
the manner described in the Acquiring Fund's current prospectus and statement of
additional information.

     1.6  Any reporting responsibility of the Acquired Fund is and shall remain
the responsibility of the Acquired Fund up to and including the Closing Date and
such later dates on which the Acquired Fund is terminated.

the net asset value per share of an Acquiring Fund share determined in
accordance with paragraph 2.2.

     2.4  All computations of value shall be made by Munder Capital Management
or the administrator in accordance with their regular practice as pricing agents
for the Acquiring Fund.

include any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material
fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein,
in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not materially
misleading;

          (d)  At the Closing Date, the Acquiring Fund will have good and
marketable title to the Acquiring Fund's assets;

          (e)  The Company is not, and the execution, delivery and performance

incurrence by the Acquiring Fund of indebtedness maturing more than one year
from the date that such indebtedness was incurred.  For the purposes of this
subparagraph (h), a decline in net asset value per share of the Acquiring Fund
Shares shall not constitute a material adverse change;

reports of the Acquiring Fund required by law to have been filed by such date

the best of the Acquiring Fund's knowledge, no such return or report is
currently under audit and no assessment has been asserted with respect to such
returns or reports;

          (j)  For each taxable year of its operation, the Acquiring Fund has
met the requirements of Subchapter M of the Code for qualification and treatment
as a regulated investment company and has elected to be treated as such and the
Acquiring Fund intends to do so in the future;

to the ownership thereof.  The Acquiring Fund does not have outstanding any
options, warrants or other rights to subscribe for or purchase any Acquiring
Fund Shares, nor is there outstanding any security other than Class B shares,
convertible into any Acquiring Fund Shares;

          (l)  The execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement will
have been duly authorized prior to the Closing Date by all necessary actions, if
any, on the part of the Company's Board of Directors, and this Agreement will
constitute a valid and binding obligation of the Company and the Acquiring Fund
enforceable in accordance with its terms, subject as to enforcement, to
bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium and other laws relating to or
affecting creditors' rights and to general equity principles;

          (m)  The Acquiring Fund Shares to be issued and delivered to the
Acquired Fund, for the account of the Acquired Fund's shareholders, pursuant to
the terms of this Agreement, will at the Closing Date have been duly authorized
and, when so issued and delivered, will be duly and validly issued Acquiring
Fund Shares, and will be fully paid and nonassessable with no personal liability
attaching to the ownership thereof;

          (n)  The information to be furnished by the Acquiring Fund for use in
no-action letters, applications for exemptive orders, registration statements,
proxy materials and other documents which may be necessary in connection with
the transactions contemplated hereby shall be accurate and complete in all
material respects and shall comply in all material respects with federal
securities and other laws and regulations applicable thereto;

          (o)  The Proxy Statement to be included in the Registration Statement
(only insofar as it relates to the Acquiring Fund) will, on the effective date
of the Registration Statement and on the Closing Date, not contain any untrue
statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be
stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the
circumstances under which such statements were made, not materially misleading;
and

          (p)  The Acquiring Fund agrees to use all reasonable efforts to obtain
the approvals and authorizations required by the 1933 Act, the 1940 Act and such
of the state Blue Sky or securities laws as it may deem appropriate in order to
continue its operations after the Closing Date.

     preemptive rights to subscription or purchase in respect thereof; (d) the
     execution and delivery of this Agreement did not, and the consummation of
     the transactions contemplated hereby will not, result in a material
     violation of the Company's Articles of Incorporation or By-Laws or any

     Statement or to be filed as exhibits to the Registration Statement which
     are not described or filed as required; (h) the Company is registered as an

     officers. (Such counsel may rely as to matters governed by the laws of the
     State of Maryland on an opinion of Maryland counsel.) Such opinion also
     shall include such other matters incident to the transaction contemplated
     hereby as the Acquired Fund may reasonably request.  Finally, such opinion
     need not opine with respect to the applicability of Section 17(a) under the

(1)  BASIS OF COMBINATION:

     The unaudited Pro Forma Combining Schedule of Investments, Pro Forma
     Combining Statement of Assets and Liabilities and Pro Forma Combining
     Statement of Operations reflect accounts of the Munder Multi-Season Growth
     Fund ("Multi-Season Growth Fund") and the Munder Accelerating Growth Fund
     ("Accelerating Growth Fund") at the end and for the six month period ended
     December 31, 1997. These statements have been derived from the funds' books
     and records utilized in calculation daily net asset value at December 31,
     1997.

     The pro forma statements give the effect to the proposed transfer of assets
     and stated liabilities of Accelerating Growth Fund in exchange for shares
     of the Multi-Season Growth Fund. In accordance with generally accepted
     accounting principles, the historical cost of investment securities will be
     carried forward to the surviving entity and the results of operations for
     pre-combinations periods for the Multi-Season Growth Fund will not be
     restated. The pro forma statements do not reflect the expenses of either
     fund in carrying out its obligation under the Agreement and Plan of
     Reorganization.
     
     The Pro Forma Combining Schedule of Investments, Pro Forma Combining
     Statement of Assets and Liabilities and Pro Forma Combining Statement of
     Operations should be read in conjunction with the historical financial
     statements of the funds included or incorporated by reference in the
     Statement of Additional Information.
     
(2)  PORTFOLIO VALUATION:

     Portfolio securities of  both  the Multi-Season Growth Fund and the
     Accelerating Growth Fund are stated at market value.
     
(3)  CAPITAL SHARES:

     The pro forma net asset value per share assumes the issuance of shares of 
     the Multi-Season Growth Fund which would have been issued at December 31,
     1997 in connection with the proposed reorganization. The number of shares
     assumed to be issued is equal to the net asset value of each class of
     shares of the Accelerating Growth Fund as of December 31, 1997 divided by
     the net asset value per share of the corresponding class of shares of the
     Multi-Season Growth Fund as of December 31, 1997. The pro forma total
     number of shares outstanding of  44,755,766 consists of  9,581,867
     additional shares assumed issued in the reorganization plus 35,173,899
     shares of the Multi-Season Growth Fund outstanding at December 31, 1997.

The Munder Funds, Inc.

Birmingham, MI 48009

Dear Sirs:

          We have acted as counsel to The Munder Funds, Inc., a Maryland
corporation (the "Company"), and we have a general familiarity with the
Company's business operations, practices and procedures.  You have asked for our
opinion regarding the issuance of shares of common stock by the Company in
connection with the acquisition by The Munder Multi-Season Growth Fund, a series
of the Company, of the assets of the Munder Accelerating Growth Fund, a series
of The Munder Funds Trust, which will be registered on a Form N-14 Registration
Statement (the "Registration Statement") to be filed by the Company with the
Securities and Exchange Commission.

          We have examined originals or certified copies, or copies otherwise
identified to our satisfaction as being true copies, of various corporate
records of the Company and such other instruments, documents and records as we
have deemed necessary in order to render this opinion.  We have assumed the
genuineness of all signatures, the authenticity of all documents examined by us
and the correctness of all statements of fact contained in those documents.

          On the basis of the foregoing, we are of the opinion that the share of
common stock of the Company being registered under the Securities Act of 1933 in
the Registration Statement will be legally and validly issued, fully paid and
non-assessable by the Company, upon transfer of the assets of the Munder
Accelerating Growth Fund pursuant to the terms of the Agreement and Plan of
Reorganization included in the Registration Statement.

          We hereby consent to the filing of this opinion with and as part of
the Registration Statement.

                         Very truly yours,

                         /s/ Dechert Price & Rhoads

                                   March 23, 1998

VIA FACSIMILE

Board of Directors
The Munder Funds, Inc.
480 Pierce Street
Birmingham, Michigan 48009

Board of Trustees
The Munder Funds Trust
480 Pierce Street
Birmingham, Michigan 48009

Dear Gentlemen:

          You have requested our opinion regarding certain Federal income tax
consequences to the Munder Accelerating Growth Fund (the "Fund"), a separate
series of The Munder Funds Trust, to the Munder Multi-Season Growth Fund
("Munder"), a separate series of The Munder Funds, Inc. and to the holders of
the shares of beneficial interest of the Fund, in connection with the proposed
transfer of substantially all of the properties of the Fund to Munder, in
exchange solely for voting shares of common stock of Munder ("Munder Shares")
and the assumption by Munder of certain liabilities of the Fund followed by the
distribution of such Munder shares received by the Fund in complete liquidation
and termination of the Fund, all pursuant to the Agreement and Plan of
Reorganization (the "Agreement") to be executed by the Fund and Munder and
included as an exhibit to Form N-14.

          For purposes of this opinion, we have examined and rely upon (1) the
Agreement, (2) the Form N-14, dated March 23, 1998 and filed by Munder on said
date with the Securities and Exchange Commission, and (3) such other documents
and instruments as we have deemed necessary or appropriate for purposes of
rendering this opinion.  We assume that the transaction that is the subject of
this letter will be carried out in accordance with the terms of the Agreement
and as described in the documents we have examined.

          This opinion is based upon the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as
amended (the "Code"), United States Treasury regulations, judicial decisions,
and administrative rulings and pronouncements of the Internal Revenue Service,
all as in effect on the date hereof.  This opinion is conditioned upon (a) the
Reorganization taking place in the manner described in the 



<PAGE>

Page 2



Agreement and the Form N-14 to which reference is made above, and (b) there
being no change in the Code, United States Treasury regulations, judicial
decisions, or administrative rulings and pronouncements of the Internal Revenue
Service between the date hereof and the closing date of the Reorganization.

          This opinion is further conditioned upon our receiving such executed
letters of representation from the Fund and Munder as we shall request.  This
opinion shall be effective only at such time as we receive those letters and
confirm our opinion in writing on the closing date of the Reorganization and, in
the absence of such confirmation, will be deemed to have been withdrawn.

          Based upon the foregoing, it is our opinion that, for Federal income
tax purposes:

          1.   The acquisition by Munder of substantially all of the properties
               of the Fund in exchange solely for Munder Shares and the
               assumption by Munder of certain liabilities of the Fund followed
               by the distribution of Munder Shares to the shareholders of the
               Fund in exchange for their Fund shares in complete liquidation
               and termination of the Fund will constitute a reorganization
               within the meaning of Section 368 of the Code.  The Fund and
               Munder will each be "a party to a reorganization" within the
               meaning of Section 368(b) of the Code.
          
          2.   The Fund will recognize no gain or loss upon transferring its
               properties to Munder in exchange solely for Munder Shares and the
               assumption by Munder of certain liabilities of the Fund or upon
               distribution to its shareholders the Munder Shares received by
               the Fund in the transaction pursuant to the Agreement.
          
          3.   Munder will recognize no gain or loss upon receiving the
               properties of the Fund in exchange for Munder Shares and the
               assumption by Munder of certain liabilities of the Fund.
          
          4.   The aggregated adjusted basis to Munder of the properties of the
               Fund received by Munder in the reorganization will be the same as
               the aggregate adjusted basis of those properties in the hands of
               the Fund immediately before the exchange.

          5.   Munder's holding periods with respect to the properties of the
               Fund that Munder acquires in the transaction will include the
               respective periods for which those properties were held by the
               Fund (except where investment activities of Munder have the
               effect of reducing or eliminating a holding period with respect
               to an asset).
          
          6.   The shareholders of the Fund will recognize no gain or loss upon
               receiving Munder Shares solely in exchange for Fund shares.
          
          7.   The aggregate basis of the Munder Shares received by a
               shareholder of the Fund in the transaction will be the same as
               the aggregate basis of the Fund shares surrendered by the
               shareholder in exchange therefor.
          
          8.   A Fund shareholder's holding period for the Munder Shares
               received by the shareholder in the transaction will include the
               holding period during which the shareholder held the Fund shares
               surrendered in exchange therefor, provided that the shareholder
               held such shares as a capital asset on the date of
               Reorganization.
          
          We express no opinion as to the tax consequences of the Reorganization
except as expressly set forth above, or as to any transaction except those
consummated in accordance with the Agreement and the representation to be made
to us.

          We hereby consent to the filing of this opinion as an exhibit to the
Registration Statement on Form N-14 filed by Munder with the Securities and
Exchange Commission.
