PREMIUM GOVERNMENT RESERVE FUND
1. WHAT IS THE FUND'S INVESTMENT OBJECTIVE?
Premium Government Reserve is a money market fund that seeks to earn the
highest level of current income while preserving the value of your
investment.
2. WHAT IS THE FUND'S INVESTMENT STRATEGY?
The fund earns its income by investing in very short-term U.S. government
securities. These securities may include direct obligations of the United
States, such as Treasury bills, notes and bonds. They may also include
obligations, such as mortgage-related securities, issued or guaranteed by
agencies and instrumentalities of the U.S. government.
Additional information about Premium Government Reserve'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 fiscal
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
guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) or any other
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
the fund.
* Because very short-term U.S. government securities are among the safest
securities available, the interest they pay is among the lowest for
income-paying securities. Accordingly, the yield on this fund will likely be
lower than for funds that invest in longer-term or lower- quality
securities.

The following bar chart shows the actual performance of Premium Government
Reserve's shares for each full calendar year since the fund's inception on
April 1, 1993. The bar chart indicates the volatility of the fund's

Dividends are declared and available for redemption daily. They will be paid
monthly on the last Friday of each month. Because the fund is a money market
fund, its distributions generally will be taxed as ordinary income. If the
fund's share price were to go up or down, its distributions also could
include capital gains or losses. Distributions are reinvested automatically
in additional shares unless you choose another option.

PREMIUM BOND FUND
1. WHAT IS THE FUND'S INVESTMENT OBJECTIVE?
Premium Bond seeks a high level of income by investing primarily in
non-money market debt securities.
2. WHAT IS THE FUND'S INVESTMENT STRATEGY?
The fund managers invest primarily in high- and medium-grade, non-money
market debt securities. These securities, which may be payable in U.S. or
foreign currencies, may include corporate bonds and notes, government
securities and securities backed by mortgages or other assets. Shorter-term
debt securities round out the portfolio.
The fund managers primarily invest in quality debt securities, that is,
securities rated in the four highest categories by independent rating
organizations. However, the fund managers may invest up to 15% of the fund's
assets in fifth-category-rated securities. The fund managers also may invest
in unrated securities if the fund managers determine 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 managers pay close attention to the
interest rate sensitivity and credit quality of the fund's portfolio.
Weighted average maturity 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
weighted average maturity number, the more the value of the fund will change
if interest rates change. The weighted average maturity of the fund's
portfolio must be three and one-half years or longer. During periods of
rising interest rates, the fund managers may adopt a shorter portfolio
maturity 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 maturity.
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 fiscal 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
maturities, 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.
* The fund may invest in debt securities backed by mortgages or assets such
as credit card receivables. These underlying obligations may be prepaid, as
when a homeowner refinances a mortgage to take advantage of declining
interest rates. If so, the fund must reinvest prepayments at current rates,
which may be less than the rate of the prepaid mortgage. Because of this
prepayment risk, the fund may benefit less from declining interest rates
than funds of similar maturity that invest less heavily in mortgage- and
asset-backed securities.
* The fund's share value will fluctuate. In general, the funds that have
higher potential income have higher potential loss. 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 (FDIC) 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 debt securities that the fund buys.
