PREMIUM BOND
1. WHAT IS THE FUND'S INVESTMENT OBJECTIVE?
Premium Bond seeks a high level of income from investments in
longer-term bonds and other debt instruments.
2. WHAT IS THE FUND'S INVESTMENT STRATEGY?
The fund invests in a variety of high- and medium-grade debt securities
payable in both U.S. and foreign currencies. Generally, bonds make up at
least 65% of the fund's assets, and shorter-term debt securities round out
the portfolio.
The fund primarily invests in investment-grade securities, that is,
securities rated in the four highest categories by independent rating
organizations. However, the fund may invest up to 15% of its assets in
fifth-category-rated securities. The fund may also invest in unrated
securities if the manager determines that they are of equivalent credit
quality.
Three basic principles of fixed-income investing impact the fund's
management.
* Bond prices generally move in the opposite direction of interest
rates.
* The longer the maturity of a debt security, the higher its yield,
but the greater its price volatility and risk.
* The lower the credit quality of a debt security, the higher its
yield, but the greater its price volatility and risk.
In light of these principles, the fund's managers pay close attention to
the interest rate sensitivity and credit quality of the fund's portfolio.
Adjusted duration is one of the tools they use to gauge how much the value
of the fund will change if interest rates change. The higher the adjusted
duration number, the more the value of the fund will change if interest
rates change. The weighted average adjusted duration of the fund's
portfolio must be 3.5 years or greater. During periods of rising interest
rates, the fund's managers may adopt a shorter portfolio duration in order
to reduce the effect of bond price declines on the fund's value. When
interest rates are falling and bond prices are rising, they may adopt a
longer portfolio duration.
Additional information about Premium Bond's investments is available in
its annual and semiannual reports. In these reports you will find a
discussion of the market conditions and investment strategies that
significantly affected the fund's performance during the most recent
six-month period. You may get these reports at no cost by calling us.
3. WHAT ARE THE SIGNIFICANT RISKS OF INVESTING IN THE FUND?
* When interest rates change, the fund's share value will be affected.
Generally, when interest rates rise, the fund's share value will
decline. The opposite is true when interest rates decline. This interest
rate risk is higher for Premium Bond than for funds that have shorter
weighted average adjusted durations, such as money market and short-term
bond funds.
* The lowest rated bonds in which the fund may invest, BBB- and BB-rated
bonds, contain some speculative characteristics. Having these bonds in
the fund's portfolio means the fund's value may go down more if interest
rates or other economic conditions change than if the fund contained
only higher-rated bonds.
* As with all funds, at any given time, the value of your shares of
Premium Bond may be worth more or less than the price you paid. If you
sell your shares when the value is less than the price you paid, you
will lose money.
* An investment in the fund is not a bank deposit and it is not insured or
guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any other
government agency.
In summary, Premium Bond is designed for investors who want a bond fund
with the potential for a higher level of income than is generally provided
by money market or short-term bond funds. Investors in the fund must be
prepared, however, to weather the generally greater price volatility
associated with the longer-term bonds that the fund buys.

Premium Capital Reserve is a money market fund that seeks to earn the
highest level of current income while preserving the value of your
investment.

securities. These securities are short-term obligations of banks,
governments and corporations that are payable in U.S. dollars.
Additional information about Premium Capital Reserve's investments is
available in its annual and semiannual reports. In these reports you will

significantly affected the fund's performance during the most recent
six-month period. You may get these reports at no cost by calling us.
3. WHAT ARE THE SIGNIFICANT RISKS OF INVESTING IN THE FUND?
*An investment in the fund is not a bank deposit and it is not insured or

government agency. Although the fund seeks to preserve the value of your
investment at $1.00 per share, it is possible to lose money by investing in
