ASSET DIRECTOR-HIGH GROWTH
ASSET DIRECTOR-BALANCED GROWTH
ASSET DIRECTOR-CONSERVATIVE GROWTH
SCHWAB ASSET DIRECTOR-HIGH GROWTH, SCHWAB ASSET DIRECTOR-BALANCED
GROWTH AND SCHWAB ASSET DIRECTOR-CONSERVATIVE GROWTH (THE "FUNDS") are a family
of three asset allocation funds which provide diversification among major
investment categories. Each seeks to meet its investment objective by investing
in a different mix of stocks, bonds, and cash-equivalents. All three Funds are
designed to provide exposure to the growth potential of the stock market in
varying degrees. Each Fund is a diversified investment portfolio of Schwab
Capital Trust (the "Trust"), a no-load management investment company (mutual
fund).

KEY FEATURES OF THE FUNDS
STRATEGY: Each Fund invests in a diversified mix of stocks, bonds, and
cash-equivalents. Research shows that the greatest impact on investment returns
is due to the asset allocation decision (the mix of stocks, bonds, and
cash-equivalents) rather than market timing or individual stock and bond
selection. A study of the performance of pension funds indicated that over 90%
of the performance was determined by asset mix.*
The primary difference among the Funds is the proportion invested in stocks.
Each Fund targets a different mix of investments as described below. This mix
will vary within defined ranges based on the Investment Manager's and the
Sub-Adviser's long-term outlook for financial markets. For more detailed
information, see "Investment Objectives and Policies."
*Financial Analysts Journal; Brinson, Singer, Beebower; May-June 1991

used by the Funds have provided the following average annual returns*:
Large company stocks (S & P 500) 14.6%
Small company stocks (CRSP 6-7-8) 19.6%
International stocks (MSCI EAFE) 16.3%

indices. Indices do not include fees such as those charged by the Funds. Past
performance of indices does not necessarily reflect future performance results
of the Funds.
LOW COST INVESTING. You pay no sales fees or charges when you buy or sell shares
of the Funds. Additionally, the Funds were designed with operating expenses
below the industry average, which helps provide more competitive returns. The
Investment Manager and Schwab guarantee that each Fund's total fund operating
expenses will not exceed 0.89% through December 31, 1996. The industry average
for asset allocation funds is 1.43%*. For more detailed information, see
"Investing in Our Funds" and "Operating Fees and Expenses."

MATCHING THE FUNDS TO YOUR INVESTMENT NEEDS
This family of three asset allocation funds provides diversification among major
investment categories. Each seeks to meet its investment objective by investing
in a different mix of stocks, bonds, and cash-equivalents. All three Funds are
designed to provide exposure to the growth potential of the stock market with
varying degrees of volatility due to the different allocations. For more
detailed information, see "Investment Objectives and Policies."
An investor's strategy might include investing in one or a combination of these
Funds to match their investment time horizon and risk tolerance.
SCHWAB ASSET DIRECTOR-HIGH GROWTH may be appropriate for you if you have a
long-term investment horizon and want the growth potential from stock
investments. You should be comfortable with the risks of the stock market, but
do not want the volatility of an all-stock investment.
SCHWAB ASSET DIRECTOR-BALANCED GROWTH may be appropriate for you if you have an
intermediate-term investment horizon and want a more balanced approach to your
investment. You should want the growth potential from stock investments but are
willing to achieve it more slowly and with less volatility than that provided by
Schwab Asset Director-High Growth.
SCHWAB ASSET DIRECTOR-CONSERVATIVE GROWTH may be appropriate for you if
you have a short-term investment horizon but still want some exposure to the
stock market. You should want returns that keep pace with inflation but want to
limit volatility to the extent possible.
RISKS CONSIDERATIONS: The Funds seek to reduce overall risk by diversifying
investments among major asset categories and sub-categories. However, depending
on the Investment Manager's asset allocation decisions with regard to the mix of
stocks, bonds and cash equivalents, shareholders in the Funds may be exposed to
the risks associated with each. Stock risk is the possibility that stock prices
in general or particular will decline over short or even extended periods.
Small-cap and International
3
<PAGE> 7
stocks will typically be included in the mix and pose special risks. Bond risk
is the potential for decline in the market value of bonds due to interest rate
changes or the ability of an issuer to meet its obligations. Diversification
among asset categories will not necessarily protect the Funds from loss. The
Funds may engage in certain derivative transactions; their characteristics and
limitations on their use are more fully described in "Investment Techniques Used
By Our Funds." There are many types of derivative transactions with varying
degrees of potential return and risk.
Please refer to the "Investment Techniques Used by Our Funds" section in this
Prospectus for a more detailed discussion of the risks associated with
particular types of investments.
EXPENSES
SHAREHOLDER TRANSACTION EXPENSES are the fees and charges you pay for buying or
selling shares of a fund. You pay no sales fees or charges when you buy or sell
shares of our Funds.
ANNUAL FUND OPERATING EXPENSES include management fees paid to the Investment
Manager, transfer agency fees, and other expenses. These expenses cover, for
example, services such as investment research and management of the Funds,
maintaining shareholder records, and issuing shareholder statements. Each Fund
pays its own annual operating expenses from its income and assets, and they are
factored into the dividends paid to shareholders and into the price of the
Funds' shares. As a shareholder, you are not charged any of these fees directly.

(1) This amount reflects a reduction by the Investment Manager, which is
guaranteed through at least December 31, 1996. If there were no such reduction,
the maximum management fee would be 0.74% of the average daily net assets of
each Fund.
(2) "Other Expenses" are based on estimated amounts for the current fiscal year
for each Fund.
(3) This amount reflects the guarantee by Schwab and the Investment Manager
that, through at least December 31, 1996, the total operating expenses of each
Fund will not exceed 0.89% of its average daily net assets. If there were no
such reduction, the estimated maximum total operating expenses would be 1.14% of
the average daily net assets of each Fund.
(4) Schwab currently imposes no fees for opening and maintaining a Schwab
brokerage account. Effective October 1, 1995, a quarterly fee of $7.50 will be
charged to Schwab brokerage and custodial accounts with balances below $1,000
and $500, respectively. This fee will be waived if there has been one
commissionable trade within the last six months, or if there are combined
account balances of at least $10,000. Schwab imposes no fees for opening and
maintaining a Schwab One(R) account with a minimum balance of $5,000. Schwab One
accounts with balances below $5,000 are subject to a monthly fee of $5.00 if
there have been fewer than two commissionable trades within the last 12 months.
Schwab Individual Retirement Accounts with balances of $10,000 or more by
September 15, 1995 are not charged Schwab's $29 annual IRA account fee for the
life of the account. Schwab Keogh plans are currently charged an annual fee of
$45.
EXAMPLES. You would pay the following expenses on a $1,000 investment in the
Funds assuming: (1) 5% annual return; and (2) redemption at the end of each
period.

THIS IS AN EXAMPLE ONLY AND DOES NOT REPRESENT PAST OR FUTURE EXPENSES. ACTUAL
EXPENSES MAY BE GREATER OR LESS THAN THE EXPENSES SHOWN IN THE EXAMPLE. This
example reflects the guarantee by Schwab and the Investment Manager that,
through at least December 31, 1996, total operating expenses for each of the
Funds will not exceed 0.89% of their average daily net assets. Please remember
that, while this

be more or less than the 5% used in this example.
The purpose of the table above is to help you understand the various costs and
expenses you will bear directly or indirectly when you invest in the Funds. (See
"Organization and Management of Our Funds - Operating Fees and Expenses.")

Day if the request was received after that time) and the purchase of shares in
another fund at the net asset value of that fund next determined after sale of
the shares involved in the exchange. An exchange of shares will be treated as a
sale of the shares for federal income tax purposes. Note that you must meet the
minimum investment requirements applicable to the shares you wish to receive in
an exchange. The Funds reserve the right on 60 days' written notice to modify,

INVESTMENT OBJECTIVES AND POLICIES
THE SCHWAB ASSET DIRECTOR FUNDS are a family of three asset allocation funds
which provide diversification among major investment categories. Each seeks to
meet its investment objective by investing in a different mix of stocks, bonds,
and cash-equivalents. All three funds are designed to provide exposure to the
growth potential of the stock market in varying degrees.
Target mixes among asset categories and the defined ranges within which the
allocations will vary have been established for each Fund. There are no defined
ranges for asset sub-categories (i.e., large company stocks) which may make up
all or none of an investment category. The Investment Manager will allocate
assets among categories, emphasizing investment in the most attractive
category. The Sub-Adviser produces an outlook for financial markets and using
a Tactical Asset Allocation Model measuring the relative attractiveness of
each asset category. Some types of investments can fall into more than one
asset category. The Funds may also make other investments that do not fall
within the asset categories. The investment objectives stated below are
fundamental to each Fund. Because any investment involves risk, we cannot
guarantee achieving these objectives.
SCHWAB ASSET DIRECTOR-HIGH GROWTH
The investment objective of Schwab Asset Director-High Growth is to provide
you with high capital growth with less risk than an all stock portfolio. This
Fund provides the greatest exposure to various stock categories, including
domestic large and small company stocks, and international stocks.
Schwab Asset Director-High Growth's target mix, as well as the defined ranges
for the different asset categories are as follows:

INVESTMENT TECHNIQUES USED BY OUR FUNDS
Our Funds will invest in stocks, bonds, and short-term instruments in varying
proportions, according to the Funds' target mixes and defined ranges.
STOCK ALLOCATION: The common stocks the Funds invest in will be a diversified
portfolio within each asset sub-category (large company, small company, and
international company) as specified in the investment objectives. Common stocks
represent an ownership, or equity, interest in a company. Although common stocks
have a history of long-term growth in value, their prices tend to fluctuate in
the short-term.
LARGE COMPANY STOCKS: The Funds' large company allocation will be invested in a
representative sample of the stocks which comprise the Standard & Poor's 500
Index(R).
SMALL COMPANY STOCKS:. The Funds' small company allocation will be invested in a
representative sample of stocks selected from a universe consisting of the
second 1,000 largest U.S. operating corporations, as measured by market
capitalization. Small company stocks have historically been characterized by
greater total returns, greater volatility of returns, and lower dividend yields
than large company stocks.
INTERNATIONAL STOCKS are those issued by companies domiciled or based outside
the United States. The Funds' international allocation will be invested in a
representative sample of stocks selected from a universe consisting of the 350
largest non-U.S. operating corporations, as measured by market capitalization.
These investments will be denominated in a foreign currency, and the value of
the Funds' investments will be affected by changes in currency exchange rates
versus the U.S. dollar in addition to normal market fluctuations. The rate of
exchange between the U.S. dollar and other currencies is determined by the
forces of supply and demand in the foreign exchange market, by changes in
interest rates, as well as by political and economic factors. Other risks and
considerations of international investing include: differences in accounting,
auditing and financial reporting standards; generally higher transaction costs
on foreign portfolio transactions; small trading volumes and generally lower
liquidity of foreign stock markets, which may result in greater price
volatility; foreign withholding taxes payable on the Funds' security holdings,
which may reduce dividend income payable to shareholders; the possibility of
expropriation, nationalization or confiscatory taxation; adverse changes in
investment or exchange control regulations; political instability which could
affect U.S. investment in foreign countries; and potential restrictions on the
flow of international capital.
BOND ALLOCATION: Bond investments for the Funds will primarily consist of United
States Government obligations, highly rated corporate debt obligations, and
highly rated asset-backed securities. The debt securities
8
<PAGE> 12
in which the Funds invest are: 1) obligations issued or guaranteed by the U.S.
Government, its agencies and instrumentalities, including bills, notes, bonds,
discount notes, stripped government securities, and other debt securities. Not
all obligations issued or guaranteed by U.S. Government agencies are backed by
the full faith and credit of the United States; 2) domestic and foreign issues
of corporate debt obligations having floating or fixed rates of interest; 3)
asset-backed securities, including mortgage-related securities. Asset-backed
securities are secured by company receivables, home equity loans, truck and auto
loans, leases, and credit card receivables. The collateral backing asset-backed
securities cannot be foreclosed upon. Mortgage-backed securities are securities
collateralized by pools of mortgage loans and are assembled by various
governmental agencies and organizations, such as GNMA, FNMA, and FHLMC. When
interest rates decline, there is increased likelihood that the mortgages
underlying a mortgage-backed security will pre-pay, resulting in the loss of any
unamortized premium paid for the securities and the probability of having to
reinvest the proceeds at lower rates; and 4) repurchase agreements
collateralized by eligible investments. The corporate debt obligations or the
asset-backed obligations the Funds invest in will be rated in one of the three
highest categories (A or better) by a nationally recognized statistical rating
organization ("NRSRO").
The market value of the Funds' debt investments will change in response to
interest rate changes and other factors. During periods of falling interest
rates, the values of outstanding debt securities generally rise and conversely,
during periods of rising interest rates, the values of such securities generally
decline. While securities with longer maturities tend to produce higher yields,
the prices of longer maturity securities are also subject to greater market
fluctuations as a result of changes in interest rates. Changes by NRSRO's in the
rating of any debt security and in the ability of an issuer to make payments of
interest and principal also affect the value of these investments. Except under
condition of default, changes in the value of portfolio securities will not
affect cash income derived from these securities but will affect the Funds' net
asset value.
CASH ALLOCATION: The Funds may invest in the following types of U.S. dollar
denominated short-term money market instruments that the Investment Manager has
determined to present moderate credit risk:
1. Bank certificates of deposit, time deposits or bankers acceptances
of banks having capital, surplus and undivided profits in excess of
$100 million.
2. Commercial paper rated in one of the two highest rating categories by a
nationally recognized statistical rating organization, or commercial paper or
notes of issuers with an unsecured debt issue outstanding currently rated in
one of the two highest rating categories by any nationally recognized
statistical rating organization where the obligation is on the same or a
higher level of priority and collateralized to the same extent as the rated
issue.
3. Obligations of, or guaranteed by, the United States or Canadian governments,
their agencies or instrumentalities.
4. Repurchase agreements involving obligations that are suitable for invest-
ment under the categories set forth above.
OTHER ASSETS. The Funds may also make other investments that do not fall within
the asset classes described above. These may include warrants, convertible
securities, preferred stocks, real-estate related investments, precious metal
related investments, American and European Depository Receipts, and stocks and
bonds issued in developing countries. In addition, the Funds may invest in other
securities, in the future, not presently contemplated or which are not currently
available. These additional investments must be consistent with the Funds'
investment objectives and legally permissible investments for the Funds.
ADJUSTING INVESTMENT EXPOSURE. Each Fund may use various techniques to increase
or decrease its exposure to changing security prices, interest rates, currency
exchange rates, commodity prices, or other factors that affect security values.
These techniques may involve derivative transactions such as buying and selling
options and futures contracts, entering into currency exchange contracts and
forward contracts, or swap agreements. The Funds may also sell securities short
if at the time of the short sale the Fund owns or has the right to own
securities equivalent in kind and amount to the securities sold short at no
additional cost. The Investment Manager can use these practices to adjust the
risk and return characteristics of a Fund's portfolio of investments. If the
Investment Manager judges market conditions incorrectly or employs a strategy
that does not correlate well with the Funds' investments, these techniques could
result in a loss, regardless of whether the intent was to reduce risk or
increase return. These techniques may increase the volatility of the Funds and
may involve a small investment of cash relative to the magnitude of the risk
assumed. In addition, these techniques could result in a loss if the
counterparty to the transaction does not perform as promised.
9
<PAGE> 13
ILLIQUID SECURITIES. Each Fund may purchase illiquid securities, provided that
no more than 10% of a Fund's net assets valued at the time of the transaction
are invested in such securities.
WHEN-ISSUED AND DELAYED DELIVERY SECURITIES. Each Fund may purchase securities
on a "when-issued" or "delayed delivery" basis. When-issued or delayed delivery
securities are securities purchased for future delivery at a stated price and
yield. Generally, a Fund will not pay for such securities or start earning
interest on them until the Fund receives them. Securities purchased on a
when-issued or delayed delivery basis are recorded as an asset. The value of
such securities may change as the general level of interest rates change.
REPURCHASE AGREEMENTS. Each of our Funds may engage in repurchase agreements. By
entering into a repurchase agreement, a Fund acquires ownership of a security
from a broker-dealer or bank that agrees to repurchase the security at a
mutually agreed upon time and price. The repurchase price is higher than the
purchase price, thereby determining the yield during the Fund's holding period.
In the event of a bankruptcy or other default of a repurchase agreement
counterparty, a Fund might have expenses in enforcing its rights, and could
experience losses, including a decline in the value of the underlying securities
and loss of income.
BORROWING POLICY. The Funds may not borrow money except for temporary purposes
to meet redemption requests that could not otherwise be met without immediately
selling portfolio securities. A Fund may borrow an amount up to one-third of the
value of a Fund's total assets and may pledge up to 10% of the Fund's net assets
to secure such borrowings. No Fund may borrow for leverage purposes. This
borrowing policy is fundamental to each Fund.
SECURITIES LENDING: Each Fund may lend up to 33 1/3% of its portfolio securities
to broker/dealers as a means of increasing income. These loans must be fully
collateralized at all times. As with any collateralized loan, there are risks of
delay in recovery or even losses of rights in the assets loaned should the
borrower fail financially.
DIVERSIFICATION. The Funds are subject to the following limitation, which
applies to all investments by the Funds other than securities issued or
guaranteed by the U.S. Government, its agencies and instrumentalities: none of
the Funds may invest more than 5% of the value of its total assets in the
securities of one issuer, except that each Fund may invest up to 25% of the
value of its assets without regard to this 5% limitation.
INVESTMENT COMPANIES. Our Funds may also purchase shares of other investment
companies, including those managed by the Investment Manager. These purchases
will be subject to the limitations imposed by the 1940 Act, and we will only
make these purchases after obtaining any required regulatory approvals.
Investment in other mutual funds may cause you to bear duplicate fees for
investment management and other services. To avoid your paying duplicate fees,
the Investment Manager of the Funds will not charge any management fees on
assets of the Funds that are invested in other SchwabFunds.
TURNOVER. The Investment Manager anticipates that the Funds' annual turnover
rate will not exceed 100%.
IMPORTANT INFORMATION ABOUT YOUR INVESTMENT
DIVIDENDS AND OTHER DISTRIBUTIONS
DISTRIBUTION OPTIONS
When you first buy shares in our Funds, you may choose one of the three
following distribution options:
1. AUTOMATIC REINVESTMENT: We will reinvest all distributions in additional
shares of the Fund. This option will be selected automatically unless you
specify another option.
2. CASH DIVIDENDS/REINVESTED CAPITAL GAINS: Income dividends will be paid in
cash and capital gains will be reinvested in additional shares.
3. ALL CASH: Income dividends and any capital gains distributions will both be
paid in cash.
Distributions will be reinvested at the net asset value next determined after
their record date. Cash distributions will be credited to your Schwab account on
the date distributions are payable, and will be held there or mailed to you,
depending on the standing instructions applicable to your account.
To change the distribution option you have selected, call your local Schwab
office or 800-2 NO-LOAD.
10
<PAGE> 14
The Funds intend to distribute substantially all of their net investment income
each year, as determined by the Board of Trustees. Net investment income
dividends will be paid on the following schedule: Schwab Asset Director-High
Growth and Schwab Asset Director-Balanced Growth: annually in December; Schwab
Asset Director-Conservative Growth: quarterly in March, June, September, and
December. Net capital gains, if any, will be distributed annually in December
by all three Funds. All distributions will be automatically reinvested in
additional shares of the Funds unless the shareholder elects otherwise.
INCOME TAX INFORMATION
The following is only a very brief summary of some of the federal income tax
consequences that affect the Funds and shareholders. Therefore, it is important
that you consult with advisers about your own tax situation.
Each Fund intends to qualify as a regulated investment company under the Code.
In order to qualify, we will distribute to our shareholders on a current basis
substantially all of our investment company taxable income and our capital gain
net income (if any), and we will meet certain other requirements. As a regulated
investment company, we will pay no federal income taxes to the extent that we
distribute our earnings to our shareholders. Income received by the Funds from
sources within certain foreign countries, however, may be subject to foreign
income taxes withheld at the source.
Dividends paid by the Funds from net investment income and distributions from
the Funds' net short-term capital gains in excess of any net long-term capital
losses, whether received in cash or reinvested, generally will be taxable to
shareholders as ordinary income. Distributions received from the Funds
designated as long-term capital gains (net of capital losses), whether received
in cash or reinvested, will generally be taxable as long-term capital gains
without regard to the length of time a shareholder owned shares in the Funds.
We will provide you with a record of all dividends, distributions, purchases,
and sales on your regular Schwab brokerage account statement. At least once a
year we will notify you of the federal income tax consequences of all
distributions made that year to your account.
HOW WE DETERMINE THE PRICE OF YOUR SHARES
The price of a share of each Fund is its net asset value, which we determine
each Business Day at the close of trading on the New York Stock Exchange,
generally at 4:00 p.m., Eastern time. We determine the price of a share by
adding the total assets of each Fund, subtracting any liabilities attributable
to that Fund, and then dividing the resulting number by the number of shares
outstanding.
The Funds value their portfolio securities based on their market value, where
quotations are readily available. The value of other assets for which no
quotations are readily available (including any restricted securities) are
valued at fair value as determined in good faith by the Investment Manager
pursuant to Board of Trustees guidelines. Securities may be valued on the basis
of prices provided by pricing services when such prices are believed to reflect
fair market value.
HOW THE FUNDS REPORT PERFORMANCE
From time to time the Funds may advertise their total return. Performance
figures are based upon historical results and are not intended to indicate
future performance.
A Fund's total return measures its overall change in value over a period,
including share price movements, and assumes all dividends and capital gains
have been reinvested. Average annual total return reflects the hypothetical
annually compounded return mandated by the SEC. Other reported total return
figures may differ in that they may report non-standard periods or represent
aggregate or cumulative return over a stated length of time.
ANNUAL REPORT AND SEMI-ANNUAL REPORT MAILINGS. Twice a year, each Fund will
provide a report to all shareholders describing the performance of the Funds and
outlining the investments. In order to reduce mailing costs, we consolidate
these shareholder mailings by household. If a household has multiple accounts
and the same address of record for all the accounts, we will send mailings for
all accounts at that address in a single package. If you do not want this
consolidation of mailings to apply to your account, please write to
SchwabFunds(R) at the address on the front of this prospectus. To request a free
copy of a Fund's Annual Report (or Semi-Annual Report), call your local Schwab
office or call 800-2 NO-LOAD.

ORGANIZATION AND MANAGEMENT OF OUR FUNDS
MANAGEMENT FUNCTIONS AND RESPONSIBILITIES
GENERAL OVERSIGHT OF OUR FUNDS. The Board of Trustees and officers meet
regularly to review the Funds' investments, performance, expenses and other
business affairs.
THE INVESTMENT MANAGER. The Investment Manager, Charles Schwab Investment
Management, Inc., is responsible for the overall management of the Funds'
business affairs, subject to the authority of the trustees and officers of
Schwab Capital Trust. The Investment Manager makes all portfolio selection
decisions, places all orders for the Funds' securities transactions, and has
primary responsibility for the management of the Funds' investment portfolios.
The Investment Manager, founded in 1989, is a wholly owned subsidiary of The
Charles Schwab Corporation and is the investment adviser and administrator of
the SchwabFunds(R) mutual funds. As of June 15, 1995, the SchwabFunds(R) had
aggregate net assets in excess of $27 billion.
Geri Hom is the portfolio manager for the equity portions of the Asset Director
Funds. She joined Schwab in March 1995 as Portfolio Manager - Equities and
currently manages the three Schwab index funds with $900 million in assets. For
four years prior to joining Schwab, she was a Principal for Wells Fargo Nikko
Investment Advisors. She was Vice President and Manager of the Domestic Equity
Portfolio Management Group for Wells Fargo Nikko for seven years prior to that.
Andrea Regan is the portfolio manager for the bond portions of the Asset
Director Funds. She joined Schwab in January 1991 and is currently Portfolio
Manager-Fixed Income. She currently manages three money market funds and two
bond funds with assets of $3 billion. Prior to joining Schwab, she was Vice
President and Manager of Trading for Merus Capital Management, the investment
management division of the Bank of California.
Stephen B. Ward, Schwab's Senior Vice President and Chief Investment Officer,
also participates in the management of each Funds' portfolios. Prior to April
1991, Mr. Ward was Vice President and Portfolio Manager for Federated Investors.
THE SUB-ADVISER. The Investment Manager has retained Symphony Asset Management
Inc. to serve as Sub-Adviser to the Funds. As Sub-Adviser, Symphony will
recommend to the Investment Manager the asset mix within the defined range for
each Fund. Symphony employs a Tactical Asset Allocation model to measure
relative values among asset categories. Using this model Symphony recommends
asset allocations it believes will provide the highest returns for a given level
of risk. Symphony does not recommend the purchase or sale of individual
securities.
Symphony was established in 1994 as a wholly-owned subsidiary of
BARRA, Inc. BARRA, founded in 1975, provides innovative analytical models,
software, and services that enable its more than 800 clients in 30 countries to
make superior investment decisions. BARRA's software and services analyze
equity, fixed income, currency, and other financial markets. Symphony presently
serves as Sub-Adviser to one other investment company and manages directly and
indirectly over $600 million in institutional and private account assets.
The Sub-Adviser's primary investment officer is Praveen Gottipalli. Since May
1994, he has been Symphony's Director of Investments. For more than five years
prior to that, he was Director of the Active Strategies Group of BARRA, Inc.
TRANSFER AGENT AND SHAREHOLDER SERVICES. Schwab serves as the Shareholder
Services Agent and Transfer Agent for the Funds. Schwab was established in 1971
and is America's largest discount broker. Schwab provides low-cost securities
brokerage and related financial services to approximately 2.5 million active
customer accounts and has over 200 branch offices. Schwab also offers convenient
access to financial information services and provides products and services that
help investors make investment decisions. Schwab is a wholly-owned subsidiary of
The Charles Schwab Corporation. Charles R. Schwab is the founder, Chairman and
Chief Executive Officer, and a director of The Charles Schwab Corporation and,
as of March 1, 1995, the beneficial owner of approximately 23.3% of the
outstanding shares of that corporation. Mr. Schwab may be deemed to be a
controlling person of Schwab and the Investment Manager.
OPERATING FEES AND EXPENSES
For investment management services, under the terms of its Investment Advisory
and Administration Agreement with the Trust, the Investment Manager receives a
graduated annual fee payable monthly from each Fund of 0.74% of each Funds'
average daily net assets not in excess of $1 billion, 0.69% of such net assets
over $1 billion, but not more than $2 billion, and 0.64% of such net assets over
$2 billion.
The Investment Manager pays the Sub-Adviser an annual fee, payable monthly, of
0.__% of each Funds' average daily net assets. The Sub-Adviser does not receive
compensation directly from the Funds.
12
<PAGE> 16
The Investment Manager and Schwab guarantee that, through at least December 31,
1996, the management fee for each of the Funds will not exceed 0.49% of its
average daily net assets, and total operating expenses of each of the Funds
will not exceed 0.89% of their average daily net assets. The following expenses
are not included as "operating expenses" for purposes of this guarantee:
interest expenses, taxes, foreign taxes withheld, and capital items such as
costs of purchase or sale of portfolio securities, including brokerage fees or
commissions. The effect of this voluntary expense limitation is to maintain or
increase the Funds' total return to shareholders.
For its services as Transfer Agent, Schwab receives an annual fee of 0.05% of
the average daily net assets of each Fund. In addition, for shareholder services
provided, Schwab receives an annual fee of 0.20% of the average daily net assets
of each Fund.
Schwab serves as the distributor for the Funds but receives no compensation for
this service.
OTHER EXPENSES. The Trust pays the expenses of the Funds' operations, including
the fees and expenses for independent auditors, legal counsel, custodians, and
the cost of maintaining books and records of account, taxes, registration fees,
and the fees and expenses of qualifying the Trust and its shares for
distribution under federal and state securities laws, and industry association
membership dues.
The Trust generally allocates these expenses among the individual investment
portfolios or series ("Series") of the Trust, including the Funds. This
allocation is based on the relative net assets of each Series at the time the
expenses are incurred. However, expenses directly attributable to a particular
series are charged to that series.
PORTFOLIO BROKERAGE. When placing orders for the Funds' securities transactions,
the Investment Manager will use its judgment to obtain the best price and
execution. The full range and quality of brokerage services available are
considered in making these determinations. For securities transactions in which
Schwab is not a principal, the Investment Manager may use Schwab to execute the
Funds' transactions when it reasonably believes that commissions (or prices)
charged and transaction quality will be at least comparable to those available
from other qualified brokers or dealers.
OTHER INFORMATION ON THE OPERATION OF OUR FUNDS
The Trust was organized as a business trust under the laws of Massachusetts on
May 7, 1993 and may issue an unlimited number of shares of beneficial interest
in one or more Series or classes. Currently shares of five Series are offered.
The Board of Trustees may authorize the issuance of shares of additional Series
or classes, if it deems it desirable. Shares within each Series have equal,
noncumulative voting rights, and have equal rights as to dividends, assets, and
liquidation.
ANNUAL SHAREHOLDER MEETINGS. The Trust is not required to hold annual meetings
and does not intend to do so except in connection with certain matters, such as
a change in a Fund's fundamental policies, election of Trustees, or approval
of a new investment advisory agreement. In addition, a Trustee may be elected
or removed by shareholders at a special meeting called upon written request of
shareholders owning in the aggregate at least 10% of theoutstanding shares of
the Trust.
YOUR VOTING RIGHTS. If we were to make changes to a Fund's management or
fundamental policies, you would be asked to vote as a shareholder because
shareholders have voting rights on these matters. If a meeting is held and you
cannot attend, you can vote by proxy. Before the meeting, the Fund will send you
proxy materials that explain the issues to be decided and include a voting card
for you to mail back. Shareholders are entitled to one vote for each share
owned. Unless permitted by the 1940 Act, shareholders will vote by Series and
not in the aggregate.
13
<PAGE> 17
For example, when voting to approve an investment advisory agreement for a
Series, only shareholders of that Series may vote; when voting to elect
Trustees, shareholders of all the Series vote in the aggregate.
GLOSSARY OF IMPORTANT TERMS
ANNUALIZED: calculated to represent a year; a statement produced by calculating
financial results covering less than a year to show what might happen when the
results are hypothetically extended to cover an entire year.
BOND: a debt obligation that requires the issuer to pay a fixed sum of money
each year (the interest payments) until maturity, the date on which the bond
comes due and the principal (the amount borrowed) must be paid. Floating or
variable rate bonds have an interest rate that rises or falls if general
interest rates or some other security (such as Treasury bills) rises or falls.
BUSINESS DAY: any day both the Federal Reserve Bank of New York and the New York
Stock Exchange are open for business. A Business Day normally begins at 9 a.m.
Eastern time when the Exchange opens, and usually ends at 4 p.m. Eastern time
when the Exchange closes.
CAPITAL GAIN OR LOSS: the increase or decrease in the value of a security over
the original purchase price. A gain is realized when the security that has
increased in value is sold. An unrealized gain or loss occurs when the value of
a security increases or decreases but the security is not sold. If a security is
held for more than 12 months and then sold at a profit, that profit is a
realized long-term capital gain. If it is sold at a profit after being held for
less than 12 months, that profit is a realized short-term capital gain.
CASH EQUIVALENTS: securites convertible into cash in a very short time period
CODE: The Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended.
COMMERCIAL PAPER: unsecured debt obligations issued by businesses and sold at a
discount but redeemed at par within 2 to 270 days.
CRSP 6-7-8: an index calculated by the Center for Research on Securities Prices,
University of Chicago, comprised of all publicly traded stocks whose market
capitalization falls within deciles 6, 7, and 8 of the market capitalization of
all stocks listed on the New York Stock Exchange.
DISTRIBUTION: payment the fund makes to shareholders. There are two kinds of
distributions: dividends, or the profits (after expenses) from the fund's
investments, and capital gains distributions.
DIVERSIFIED: under the 1940 Act, a diversified fund generally may not invest
more than 5% of its assets in the securities of any one issuer, and may not hold
more than 10% of the voting shares of any one issuer. Certain minor exceptions
apply to this policy, which are described in the Statement of Additional
Information.
FUNDAMENTAL: a policy which can not be changed without the approval of a
majority of the shareholders of a Fund.
INVESTMENT MANAGER: Charles Schwab Investment Management, Inc.
LARGE COMPANY STOCKS: The stocks of companies with the largest market
capitalization's - market capitalizations of about $1.5 billion and up.

stock index.
MATURITY: the date on which the principal of a debt obligation such as a bond
comes due and must be repaid.
MONEY MARKET INSTRUMENT: Short-term liquid debt such as Treasury bills and
commercial paper, which is sold at a discount but redeemed at par. See
Commercial Paper.
NET ASSET VALUE (NAV): on a per share basis, the value of one share in a fund.
This value is determined by adding the total fund assets, subtracting all
liabilities, and then dividing the resulting number by the number of shares
outstanding.
1940 ACT: the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended.
NONCUMULATIVE VOTING RIGHTS: the right of a shareholder to vote only the number
of shares owned at the time of voting.
OPEN-END FUND: also called a mutual fund; an investment company in which people
invest by buying its shares, thereby pooling their money and allowing the fund
to invest in a number of securities. The fund distributes the profits from these
investments, after expenses, to the fund's shareholders. Although shares in the
fund are sold publicly, they are not traded on an open exchange because the fund
will buy and sell shares to meet investor demand. Since the company is not
limited as to the number of shares it can issue, the company's capitalization is
not fixed but open.
PAR: for a stock, par is the value assigned to the stock at the time it is
issued. It does not reflect either the intrinsic value of the security nor its
market value. For a bond, par is the price at which the bond will be redeemed at
its date of maturity, and the value on which the calculation of interest
payments is based.
PORTFOLIO: the total stocks, bonds, and other securities held by an individual
investor, a mutual fund, or a financial institution.
RISK: the possibility of losing all or part of your investment, that the value
of your investment will decrease, or that you will receive little or no return
on your investment.

than one year.
TRANSFER AGENT: Charles Schwab & Co., Inc., 101 Montgomery Street, San
Francisco, CA 94104.
TRUST: Schwab Capital Trust
VOLATILITY: a measure of the magnitude and frequency of changes in securities
values. Statistically, volatility is the measure of the spread of the prices or
yields around the mean of the prices or yields.
YIELD: the rate at which dividends or interest are paid by a security. The yield
is calculated as a percentage of the security's current market price. A stock
selling for $80 per share and paying dividends of $6.40 is yielding 8 percent
($6.40/$80=.08). Likewise, a bond with a par or face value of $1,000 and a 9
percent interest rate selling for $600 is yielding 15 percent ($90/$600 =.15).
Interest on a bond is always based on the par or face value of the bond, while
the yield or return is based on the market price.

INVESTMENT OBJECTIVES
INTERNATIONAL INDEX FUND
The investment objective of the International Index Fund is to track
the price and dividend performance (total return) of the Schwab International
Index(TM) , (the "International Index"), an index created to represent the
performance of common stocks and other equity securities issued by large
publicly traded companies from countries around the world with major developed
securities markets, excluding the United States.
SMALL-CAP INDEX FUND
The investment objective of the Small-Cap Index Fund is to attempt to
track the price and dividend performance (total return) of the Schwab
Small-Cap Index(TM) (the "Small-Cap Index"), an index created to represent the
performance of the second 1,000 publicly traded common stocks issued by United
States companies, ranked by market capitalization (share price times the number
of shares outstanding).
SCHWAB ASSET DIRECTOR-HIGH GROWTH
The investment objective of the Schwab Asset Director-High Growth
Fund is to provide high capital growth with less risk than an all-stock
portfolio. This Fund provides the greatest exposure to various stock
categories, including domestic large and small company stocks, and
international stocks.
SCHWAB ASSET DIRECTOR-BALANCED GROWTH
The investment objective of the Schwab Asset Director-Balanced Growth
Fund is to provide the shareholder with maximum total return, including both
capital growth and income. This Fund represents a more balanced exposure
approach to stocks and bonds.
SCHWAB ASSET DIRECTOR-CONSERVATIVE GROWTH
The investment objective of the Schwab Asset Director-Conservative
Growth Fund is to provide the shareholder with income and more growth potential
than an all-bond portfolio. This Fund's stock component is designed to help
offset inflation.
The investment objectives stated above for each of the Funds, along
with certain investment restrictions adopted by the Funds, are fundamental and
cannot be changed without approval by holders of a majority of the Funds'
outstanding voting shares, as defined in the Investment Company Act of 1940
(the "1940 Act").

INVESTMENT SECURITIES
FOREIGN INVESTMENTS
The International Index Fund and the Asset Director Funds expect to
invest in stocks of foreign issuers. The International Index Fund will invest
primarily in such stocks. Investing in foreign issuers involves certain
special considerations, including those set forth below, which are not
typically associated with investing in U.S. issuers. Since investments in the
securities of foreign issuers are usually made and held in foreign currencies,
and since the International Index Fund and the Asset Director Funds may hold
cash in foreign currencies, they may be affected favorably or unfavorably by
changes in currency rates and in exchange control regulations and may incur
costs in connection with conversions between various currencies. The rate of
exchange between the U.S. dollar and other currencies is determined by the
forces of supply and demand in the foreign exchange market as well as by
political and economic factors.
Since foreign companies are not subject to uniform accounting,
auditing and financial reporting standards, practices and requirements
comparable to those applicable to U.S. companies, there may be less publicly
available information about a foreign company than about a U.S. company.
Volume and liquidity in most markets are less than in the U.S. and securities
of many foreign companies are less liquid and more volatile than securities of
comparable U.S. companies. Fixed commissions on foreign securities exchanges
are generally higher than negotiated commissions on U.S. exchanges, although
the International Index Fund and the Asset Director Funds endeavors to achieve
the most favorable net results on their portfolio transactions. There is
generally less government supervision and regulation of foreign securities
exchanges, brokers, dealers and listed companies than in the U.S., thus
increasing the risk of delayed settlements of portfolio transactions or loss of
certificates for portfolio securities.
Foreign markets also have different clearance and settlement
procedures, and in certain markets there have been times when settlements have
been unable to keep pace with the volume of securities transactions, making it
difficult to conduct such transactions. Such delays in settlement could result
in temporary periods when a portion of the assets of the International Index
Fund and the Asset Director Funds are uninvested and no return is earned
thereon. The inability to make intended security purchases due to settlement
problems could cause the International Index Fund and the Asset Director Funds
to miss attractive investment opportunities. Losses to the International Index
Fund and the Asset Director Funds arising out of the inability to fulfill a
contract to sell such securities, could result in potential liability to the
International Index Fund and Asset Director Funds.
3
<PAGE> 23
In addition, with respect to those countries in which the
International Index Fund and the Asset Director Funds may invest or other
countries which may have a significant impact on the companies in which the
International Index Fund and the Asset Director Funds may invest, there is the
possibility of expropriation or confiscatory taxation, political or social
instability, diplomatic developments, change of government or war which could
affect the International Index Fund's and the Asset Director Funds'
investments. Moreover, individual foreign economies may differ favorably or
unfavorably from the U.S. economy in such respects as growth of gross national
product, rate of inflation, capital reinvestment, resource self-sufficiency and
balance of payments position.
Each of the Asset Director Funds may invest up to 5% of its total
assets in companies located in developing countries. Compared to the United
States and other developed countries, developing countries may have relatively
unstable governments, economies based on only a few industries, and securities
markets which trade a small number of securities. Prices on these exchanges
tend to be volatile and, in the past, securities in these countries have
offered greater potential for gain (as well as loss) than securities of
companies located in developed countries.
Hong Kong. In addition to the risks discussed above, it is impossible
to currently foresee what risk, if any, may exist to the International Index
Fund's and the Asset Director Funds' investments as a result of the planned
1997 incorporation of the British Crown Colony of Hong Kong into the People's
Republic of China. Shareholders should note that the risks discussed above may
increase depending on political and economic developments as the scheduled
time for the change in government in Hong Kong draws nearer.
DEPOSITORY RECEIPTS
Each of the Asset Director Funds may invest up to 5% of its total
assets in American Depository Receipts and European Depositary Receipts (ADRs
and EDRs) which are receipts representing ownership of share of a foreign-based
issuer held in trust by a bank or similar financial institution. These are
designed for U.S. and European securities markets as alternatives to purchasing
underlying securities in their corresponding national markets and currencies.
ADRs and EDRs can be sponsored or unsponsored. Sponsored ADRs and EDRs are
certificates in which a bank or financial institution participates with a
custodian. Issuers of unsponsored ADRs and EDRs are not contractually
obligated to disclose material information in the United States. Therefore,
there may not be a correlation between such information and the market value of
the unsponsored ADR or EDR.
OPTIONS ON SECURITIES
Writing Covered Options. The Funds may write (sell) covered call and
put options on any securities in which they may invest. The Funds may purchase
and write such options on securities that are
4
<PAGE> 24
listed on domestic or foreign securities exchanges or traded in the
over-the-counter market. All call options written by the Funds are covered,
which means that the Funds will own the securities subject to the option so
long as the option is outstanding. The purpose of writing covered call options
is to realize greater income than would be realized on portfolio securities
transactions alone. However, in writing covered call options for additional
income, the Funds may forego the opportunity to profit from an increase in the
market price of the underlying security.
All put options written by the Funds will be covered, which means that
each of the Funds will have deposited with its custodian cash, U.S. government
securities or other high-grade debt securities (i.e., securities rated in one
of the top three categories by Moody's Investor Service ("Moody's") or Standard
& Poor's Corporation ("S&P"), or, if unrated, determined by the Funds'
Investment Manager to be of comparable credit quality) with a value at least
equal to the exercise price of the put option. The purpose of writing such
options is to generate additional income for the Funds. However, in return for
the option premium, the Funds accept the risk that they may be required to
purchase the underlying securities at a price in excess of the securities
market value at the time of purchase.
The Funds may terminate their obligations under a written call or put
option by purchasing an option identical to the one it has written. Such
purchases are referred to as "closing purchase transactions."
Purchasing Options. The Funds may purchase put and call options on
any securities in which they may invest or options on any securities index
based on securities in which they may invest. The Funds would also be able to
enter into closing sale transactions in order to realize gains or minimize
losses on options they have purchased.
The writer of an option may have no control over when the underlying
securities must be sold, in the case of a call option, or purchased, in the
case of a put option, since, with regard to certain options the writer may be
assigned an exercise notice at any time prior to the termination of the
obligation. Whether or not an option expires unexercised, the writer retains
the amount of the premium. This amount may, in the case of a covered call
option, be offset by a decline in the market value of the underlying security
during the option period. If a call option is exercised, the writer
experiences a profit or loss from the sale of the underlying security. If a
put option is exercised, the writer must fulfill its obligation to purchase the
underlying security at the exercise price, which will usually exceed the then
market value of the underlying security.
The purchase of a call option would entitle the Funds, in return for
the premium paid, to purchase specified securities at a specified price during
the
5
<PAGE> 25
option period. The Funds would ordinarily realize a gain if, during the option
period, the value of such securities exceeded the sum of the exercise price,
the premium paid and transaction costs, otherwise the Funds would realize
either no gain or a loss on the purchase of the call option.
Risks Associated With Options Transactions. There is no assurance
that a liquid secondary market on a domestic or foreign options exchange will
exist for any particular exchange-traded option or at any particular time. If
the Funds are unable to effect a closing purchase transaction with respect to
covered options they have written, the Funds will not be able to sell the
underlying securities or dispose of assets held in a segregated account until
the options expire or are exercised. Similarly, if the Funds are unable to
effect a closing sale transaction with respect to options they have purchased,
they would have to exercise the options in order to realize any profit and will
incur transaction costs upon the purchase or sale of underlying securities.
Reasons for the absence of a liquid secondary market on an exchange
include the following: (i) there may be insufficient trading interest in
certain options; (ii) restrictions may be imposed by an exchange on opening
transaction or closing transactions or both; (iii) trading halts, suspensions
or other restrictions may be imposed with respect to particular classes or
series of options; (iv) unusual or unforeseen circumstances may interrupt
normal operations on an exchange; (v) the facilities of an exchange or the
Options Clearing Corporation (the "OCC") may not at all times be adequate to
handle current trading volume; or (vi) one or more exchanges could, for
economic or other reasons, decide or be compelled at some future date to
discontinue the trading of options (or a particular class or series of
options), although outstanding options on that exchange that had been issued by
the OCC as a result of trades on that exchange would continue to be exercisable
in accordance with their terms.
The Funds may purchase and sell both options that are traded on U.S.
and foreign exchanges and options traded over-the-counter with broker-dealers
who make markets in these options. The ability to terminate over-the-counter
options is more limited than with exchange-traded options and may involve the
risk that broker-dealers participating in such transactions will not fulfill
their obligations. Until such time as the staff of the Securities and Exchange
Commission (the "SEC") changes its position, the Funds will treat purchased
over-the-counter options and all assets used to cover written over-the-counter
options as illiquid securities, except that with respect to options written
with primary dealers in the U.S. government securities pursuant to an agreement
requiring a closing purchase transaction at a formula price, the amount of
illiquid securities may be calculated with reference to a formula approved by
the staff of the SEC. Each of the Asset Director Funds will write or purchase
an option only where the market value of that option, when aggregated with the
market value of all other options transactions made on
6
<PAGE> 26
behalf of the Fund does not exceed 5% of the Fund's total assets.
FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSACTIONS
Forward Foreign Currency Exchange Contracts. The International Index
Fund and the Asset Director Funds may enter into forward foreign currency
exchange contracts in several circumstances. The International Index Fund and
the Asset Director Funds may engage in foreign currency exchange transactions
to protect against uncertainty in the level of future exchange rates. The
International Index Fund and the Asset Director Funds expect to engage in
foreign currency exchange transactions in connection with the purchase and sale
of portfolio securities (so-called "transaction hedging") and to protect the
value of specific portfolio positions ("position hedging").
For transaction hedging purposes, the International Index Fund and the Asset
Director Funds enter into foreign currency transactions with respect to
specific receivables or payables of the funds arising in connection with the
purchase or sale of portfolio securities. By transaction hedging, the
International Index Fund and the Asset Director Funds will attempt to protect
against a possible loss resulting from an adverse change in the relationship
between the U.S. dollar and the applicable foreign currency during the period
between the date on which the security is purchased or sold, and the date on
which such payments are made or received. When engaging in position hedging,
the International Index Fund and the Asset Director Funds enter into foreign
currency exchange transactions to protect against a decline in the values of
the foreign currencies in which portfolio securities are denominated (or
against an increase in the value of currency for securities which the
International Index Fund and the Asset Director Funds expect to purchase).
When engaging in portfolio and/or transaction hedging, the International Index
Fund and the Asset Director Funds may purchase or sell foreign on a spot (or
cash) basis at the prevailing spot rate, and may also enter into contracts to
purchase or sell foreign currencies at a future date ("forward contracts") and
purchase and sell foreign currency futures contracts ("futures contracts").
The International Index Fund and the Asset Director Funds may also purchase
exchange-listed and over-the-counter call and put options on futures contracts
and on foreign currencies. A put option on a futures contract gives the
International Index Fund and the Asset Director Funds the right to assume a
short position in the futures contract until expiration of the option. A put
option on currency gives the International Index Fund and the Asset Director
Funds the right to sell a currency at an exercise price until the expiration of
the option. A call option on a futures contract gives the International Index
Fund and the Asset Director Funds the right to assume a long position in the
futures contract until the expiration of the option. A call option on currency
gives the International Index Fund and the Asset Director Funds the right to
purchase a currency at the
7
<PAGE> 27
exercise price until the expiration of the option.
Hedging transaction involve costs and may result in losses, and the
International Index Fund and the Asset Director Funds' ability to engage in
hedging transactions may be limited by tax considerations. Transaction and
position hedging do not eliminate fluctuations in the underlying prices of the
securities which the fund owns or expects to purchase or expects to purchase or
sell. They simply establish a rate of exchange which one can achieve at some
future point in time. Additionally, although these techniques tend to minimize
the risk of loss due to decline in the value of the hedged currency, they tend
to limit any potential gain which might result from an increase in the value of
such currency.
Although the contracts are not presently regulated by the Commodity
Futures Trading Commission (the "CFTC"), the CFTC may in the future assert
authority to regulate these contracts. In such event, the International Index
Fund's and the Asset Director Funds' ability to utilize forward foreign
currency exchange contracts may be restricted.
Each of the Asset Director Funds will enter into a forward foreign
currency exchange contract only when the market value of such contract, when
aggregated with the market value of all other such contracts held by the Fund
does not exceed 5% of the Fund's total assets.
The International Index Fund and the Asset Director Funds generally
will not enter into a forward contract with a term of greater than one year.
While the International Index Fund and the Asset Director Funds will
enter into forward contracts to reduce currency exchange rate risks,
transactions in such contracts involve certain other risks. Thus, while the
International Index Fund and the Asset Director Funds may benefit from such
transactions, unanticipated changes in currency prices may result in a poorer
overall performance for the International Index Fund and the Asset Director
Funds than if it had not engaged in any such transactions. Moreover, there may
be imperfect correlation between the International Index Fund's and the Asset
Director Funds' portfolio holdings of securities denominated in a particular
currency and forward contracts entered into by the International Index Fund and
the Asset Director Funds. Such imperfect correlation may cause the
International Index Fund and the Asset Director Funds to sustain losses which
will prevent the International Index Fund and the Asset Director Funds from
achieving a complete hedge or expose the International Index Fund and the Asset
Director Funds to risk of foreign exchange loss.
Writing and Purchasing Currency Call and Put Options. The
International Index Fund and the Asset Director Funds may write covered put and
call options and purchase put and call options on foreign currencies for the
purpose of protecting against declines in the dollar value of
8
<PAGE> 28
portfolio securities and against increases in the dollar cost of securities to
be acquired. A call option written by the International Index Fund and the
Asset Director Funds obligates the International Index Fund and the Asset
Director Funds to sell specified currency to the holder of the option at a
specified price at any time before the expiration date. A put option written
by the International Index Fund and the Asset Director Funds would obligate the
International Index Fund and the Asset Director Funds to purchase specified
currency from the option holder at a specified time before the expiration date.
The writing of currency options involves a risk that the International Index
Fund and the Asset Director Funds will, upon exercise of the option, be
required to sell currency subject to a call at a price that is less than the
currency's market value or be required to purchase currency subject to a put at
a price that exceeds the currency's market value.
The International Index Fund and the Asset Director Funds may
terminate their obligations under a call or put option by purchasing an option
identical to the one it has written. Such purchases are referred to as
"closing purchase transactions." The International Index Fund and the Asset
Director Funds would also be able to enter into closing sale transactions in
order to realize gains or minimize losses on options purchased by the
International Index Fund and the Asset Director Funds.
The purchase of a call option would entitle the International Index
Fund and the Asset Director Funds, in return for the premium paid, to purchase
specified currency at a specified price during the option period. The
International Index Fund and the Asset Director Funds would ordinarily realize
a gain or a loss on the purchase of the call option.
The purchase of a put option would entitle the International Index
Fund and the Asset Director Funds, in exchange for the premium paid, to sell
specific currency at a specified price during the option period. The purchase
of protective puts is designed merely to offset or hedge against a decline in
the dollar value of the International Index Fund's and the Asset Director
Funds' portfolio securities due to currency exchange rate fluctuations. The
International Index Fund and the Asset Director Funds would ordinarily realize
a gain, if, during the option period, the value of the underlying currency
decreased below the exercise price sufficiently to more than cover the premium
and transaction costs; otherwise the International Index Fund and the Asset
Director Funds would realize either no gain or a loss on the purchase of the
put option. Gains and losses on the purchase of protective put options would
tend to be offset by countervailing changes in the value of the underlying
currency.
Special Risks Associated With Options on Foreign Currency. An
exchange traded option position may be closed out only on an options exchange
which provides a secondary market for an option of the same series. Although
the International Index Fund and the Asset Director Funds will generally
purchase or
9
<PAGE> 29
write only those options for which there appears to be an active secondary
market, there is no assurance that a liquid secondary market on an exchange
will exist for any particular option, or at any particular time. For some
options, no secondary market on an exchange may exist, In such event, it might
not be possible to effect closing transactions in particular options, with the
result that the International Index Fund and the Asset Director Funds would
have to exercise its options in order to realize any profit and would incur
transaction costs upon the sale of underlying securities pursuant to the
exercise of put options. If the International Index Fund and the Asset
Director Funds as a covered call option writer is unable to effect a closing
purchase transaction in a secondary market, it will not be able to sell the
underlying currency (or security denominated in that currency) until the option
expires or it delivers the underlying currency upon exercise.
There is no assurance that higher than anticipated trading activity or
other unforeseen events might not, at times, render certain of the facilities
of the OCC inadequate, and thereby result in the institution by an exchange of
special procedures which may interfere with the timely execution of customers'
orders.
The International Index Fund and the Asset Director Funds will
purchase and write over-the-counter options only to the extent consistent with
its limitations on investments in illiquid securities, as described in the
Prospectuses. Trading in over-the-counter options is subject to the risk that
the other party will be unable or unwilling to close-out purchasing and writing
activities.
FUTURES CONTRACTS AND OPTIONS ON FUTURES CONTRACTS
To hedge against changes in interest rates, securities prices or
currency exchange rates, the Funds may purchase and sell various kinds of
futures contracts. The Funds may also enter into closing purchase and sale
transactions with respect to any such contracts and options. The futures
contracts may be based on various securities (such as U.S. government
securities), securities indices, foreign currencies and other financial
instruments and indices. The Funds will engage in futures and related option
transactions only for bona fide hedging or other appropriate risk management
purposes as defined below. All futures contracts entered into by the Funds are
traded on U.S. exchanges or boards of trade that are licensed and regulated by
the CFTC or on foreign exchanges.
Futures Contracts. A futures contract may generally be described as
an agreement between two parties to buy and sell particular financial
instruments for an agreed upon price during a designated month (or to deliver
the final cash settlement price, in the case of a contract relating to an index
or otherwise not calling for physical delivery at the end of trading in the
contract).
10
<PAGE> 30
When interest rates are rising or securities prices are falling, the
Funds can seek, through the sale of futures contracts, to offset a decline in
the value of its current portfolio securities. When rates are falling or
prices are rising, the Funds, through the purchase of futures contracts, can
attempt to secure better rates or prices than might later be available in the
market when they affect anticipated purchases. Similarly, the International
Index Fund and the Asset Director Funds can sell futures contracts on a
specified currency to protect against a decline in the value of such currency
and its portfolio securities which are denominated in such currency. The
International Index Fund and the Asset Director Funds can purchase futures
contracts on foreign currency to fix the price in U.S. dollars of a security
denominated in such currency that the International Index Fund and the Asset
Director Funds has acquired or expects to acquire.
Although futures contracts by their terms generally call for the
actual delivery or acquisition of underlying securities or the cash value of
the index, in most cases the contractual obligation is fulfilled before the
date of the contract without having to make or take such delivery. The
contractual obligation is offset by buying (or selling, as the case may be) on
a commodities exchange an identical futures contract calling for delivery in
the same month. Such a transaction, which is effected through a member of an
exchange, cancels the obligation to make or take delivery of the securities or
the cash value of the index underlying the contractual obligations. The Funds
may incur brokerage fees when it purchases or sells futures contracts.
Positions taken in the futures markets are not normally held to
maturity, but are instead liquidated through offsetting transactions which may
result in a profit or a loss. While the Funds' futures contracts on securities
or currency will usually be liquidated in this manner, the Funds may instead
make or take delivery of the underlying securities or currency whenever it
appears economically advantageous for them to do so. A clearing corporation
associated with the exchange on which futures on securities or currency are
traded guarantees that, if still open, the sale or purchase will be performed
on the settlement date.
Hedging Strategies With Futures. Hedging by use of futures contracts
seeks to establish more certainty than would otherwise be possible with respect
to the effective price, rate of return or currency exchange rate on portfolio
securities or securities that the Funds own or propose to acquire. Such
futures contracts may include contracts for the future delivery of securities
held by the Funds or securities with characteristics similar to those of the
Funds' portfolio securities. Similarly, the International Index Fund and the
Asset Director Funds may sell futures contracts on currency in which its
portfolio securities are denominated or in one currency to hedge against
fluctuations in the value of securities denominated in a different currency if
there is an established historical pattern of correlation between
11
<PAGE> 31
the two currencies. If, in the opinion of the Funds' Investment Manager, there
is a sufficient degree of correlation between price trends for the Funds'
portfolio securities and futures contracts based on other financial
instruments, securities indices or other indices, the Funds may also enter into
such futures contracts as part of their hedging strategy. Although under some
circumstances, prices of securities in the Funds' portfolio may be more or less
volatile than prices of such futures contracts, the Funds' Investment Manager
will attempt to estimate the extent of this difference in volatility based on
historical patterns and to compensate for it by having the Funds enter into a
greater or lesser number of futures contracts or by attempting to achieve only
a particular hedge against price changes affecting the Funds' portfolio
securities. When hedging of this character is successful, any depreciation in
the value of the portfolio securities will substantially be offset by
appreciation in the value of the futures position. On the other hand, any
unanticipated appreciation in the value of the Funds' portfolio securities
would be substantially offset by a decline in the value of the futures
position.
On other occasions, the Funds may take "long" positions by purchasing
such futures contracts. This would be done, for example, when the Funds
anticipate the subsequent purchase of particular securities when they have the
necessary cash, but expects the prices or currency exchange rates then
available in the applicable market to be less favorable than prices that are
currently available.
Options on Futures Contracts. The acquisition of put and call options
on futures contracts will give the Funds the right (but not the obligation),
for a specified price, to sell or to purchase, respectively, the underlying
futures contract at any time during the option period. As the purchaser of an
option on a futures contract, the Funds obtain the benefit of the futures
position if prices move in a favorable direction but limit their risk of loss
in the event of an unfavorable price movement to the loss of the premium and
transaction costs.
The writing of a call option on a futures contract generates a premium
which may partially offset a decline in the value of the Funds' assets. By
writing a call option, the Funds become obligated, in exchange for the premium,
to sell a futures contract, which may have a value lower than the exercise
price. Thus, the loss incurred by the Funds in writing options on futures is
potentially unlimited and may exceed the amount of the premium received. The
Funds will incur transaction costs in connection with the writing of options on
futures.
The holder or writer of an option on a futures contract may terminate
its position by selling or purchasing an offsetting option on the same series.
There is no guarantee that such closing transactions can be effected. The
Funds' ability to establish and close out positions on such options will be
subject to the development and maintenance of a liquid market.
12
<PAGE> 32
The Funds may use options on futures contracts solely for bona fide
hedging or other appropriate risk management purposes as defined below.
Other Considerations. The Funds will engage in futures and related
options transactions only for bona fide hedging or other appropriate risk
management purposes in accordance with CFTC regulations which permit principals
of an investment company registered under the 1940 Act to engage in such
transactions without registering as commodity pool operators. "Appropriate
risk management purposes" means activities in addition to bona fide hedging
which the CFTC deems appropriate for operators of entities, including
registered investment companies, that are excluded from the definition of
commodity pool operator. The Funds are not permitted to engage in speculative
futures trading. The Funds will determine that the price fluctuations in the
futures contracts and options on futures used for hedging purposes are
substantially related to price fluctuations in securities held by the Funds or
which they expect to purchase. Except as stated below, the Funds' futures
transactions will be entered into for traditional hedging purposes--i.e.,
futures contracts will be sold to protect against a decline in the price of
securities, or the currency will be purchased to protect the Fund against an
increase in the price of securities, or the currency in which they are
denominated. As evidence of this hedging intent, the Funds expect that on 75%
or more of the occasions on which it takes a long futures (or option) position
(involving the purchase of futures contracts), the Funds will have purchased,
or will be in the process of purchasing, equivalent amounts of related
securities (or assets denominated in the related currency) in the cash market
at the time when the futures (or option) position is closed out. However, in
particular cases, when it is economically advantageous for the Funds to do so,
a long futures position may be terminated (or an option may expire) without the
corresponding purchase of securities or other assets. As an alternative to
literal compliance with the bona fide hedging definition, a CFTC regulation
permits the Funds to elect to comply with a different test, under which (i) the
Funds' futures positions will be used as part of its portfolio management
strategy and will be incidental to its activities in the underlying cash market
and (ii) the underlying commodity value of such positions will not exceed the
sum of (a) cash or cash equivalents segregated for this purpose, (b) cash
proceeds on existing investments due within 30 days, and (c) accrued profits on
such futures or options positions.
Each of the Funds will engage in transactions in futures contracts and
related options only to the extent such transactions are consistent with the
requirements of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code") for
maintaining its qualification as a regulated investment company for federal
income tax purposes.
The Funds may not purchase or sell futures contracts or purchase or
sell related options, except for closing purchase
13
<PAGE> 33
or sale transactions, if (i) immediately thereafter the sum of the amount of
margin deposits on the Funds' outstanding futures and related options positions
and the amount of premiums paid for outstanding options on futures would exceed
5% of the market value of that Fund's total assets or (ii) in the case of each
of the Asset Director Funds, immediately thereafter the market value of the
futures contract or related option, when aggregated with the market value of
all other positions, on such securities held by the Fund would exceed 5% of the
Fund's total assets. These transactions involve brokerage costs, require
margin deposits and, in the case of futures contracts and options obligating
the Funds to purchase securities or currencies, require the Funds to segregate
assets to cover such contracts and options.
While transactions in futures contracts and options on futures may
reduce certain risks, such transactions themselves entail certain other risks.
Thus, while the Funds may benefit from the use of futures and options on
futures, unanticipated changes in interest rates, securities prices or currency
exchange rates may result in a poorer overall performance for the Funds than if
they had not entered into any futures contracts or options transactions. In
the event of an imperfect correlation between a futures position and portfolio
position which is intended to be protected, the desired protection may not be
obtained and the Funds may be exposed to risk of loss.
Perfect correlation between the Funds' futures positions and portfolio
positions may be difficult to achieve. In addition, it is not possible to
hedge fully or perfectly against currency fluctuations affecting the value of
securities denominated in foreign currencies because the value of such
securities is likely to fluctuate as a result of independent factors not
related to currency fluctuations.
SWAPS
Each of the Asset Director Funds may enter into swaps on various
securities (such as U.S. government securities), securities indexes, interest
rates, prepayment rates, foreign currencies or other financial instruments or
indexes, in order to protect the value of the Asset Director Funds from
interest rate fluctuations and to hedge against fluctuations in the floating
rate market in which the Asset Director Funds' investments are traded, for both
hedging and non-hedging purposes. While swaps are different from futures
contracts (and options on futures contracts) in that swap contracts are
individually negotiated with specific counterparties, the Asset Director Funds
will use swap contracts for purposes similar to the purposes for which they use
options, futures, and options on futures. Those uses of swap contracts (i.e.,
risk management and hedging) present the Funds with risks and opportunities
similar to those associated with options contracts, futures contracts, and
options on futures. See "Futures Contracts and Options on Futures Contracts"
in this Statement.
14
<PAGE> 34
The Asset Director Funds may enter into these transactions to manage
their exposure to changing interest rates and other market factors. Some
transactions may reduce each Asset Director Funds' exposure to market
fluctuations while others may tend to increase market exposure.
The use of swaps involves investment techniques and risks different
from and potentially greater than those associated with ordinary fund
securities transactions. If the Investment Manager is incorrect in its
expectations of market values, interest rates, or currency exchange rates, the
investment performance of the Asset Director Funds would be less favorable than
it would have been if this investment technique were not used. The Asset
Director Funds will only invest in swaps up to 5% of each Fund's total assets.
PREFERRED STOCK
The Funds may invest in preferred stock. Preferred stock has priority
as to income and generally as to assets of the issuer, however, income is
usually limited to a definitive percentage regardless of the issuer's earnings.
Preferred stock usually has limited voting rights. The Asset Director Funds
will only invest in preferred stock up to 5% of each Fund's total assets.
CONVERTIBLE SECURITIES
Each of the Asset Director Funds may invest up to 5% of its total
assets in securities that are convertible into common stock, including
convertible bonds, convertible preferred stocks, and warrants.
Convertible bonds are issued with lower coupons than nonconvertible
bonds of the same quality and maturity, but they give holders the option to
exchange their bonds for a specific number of shares of the company's common
stock at a predetermined price. This structure allows the convertible bond
holder to participate in share price movements in the company's common stock.
The actual return on a convertible bond may exceed its stated yield if the
company's common stock appreciates in value, and the option to convert to
common shares becomes more valuable.
Convertible preferred stocks are nonvoting equity securities that pay
a fixed dividend. These securities have a convertible feature similar to
convertible bonds; however, they do not have a maturity date. Due to their
fixed-income features, convertible issues typically are more sensitive to
interest rate changes than the underlying common stock. In the event of
liquidation, bondholders would have claims on company assets senior to those of
stockholders; preferred stockholders would have claims senior to those of
common stockholders.
The Funds may invest in warrants. Warrants entitle the holder to buy
the issuer's stock at a specific price for a specific period of time. The
price of a warrant tends to be more volatile than, and does not always track,
the prices of its
15
<PAGE> 35
underlying stock. Warrants are issued with expiration dates. Once a warrant
expires, it has no value in the market.
REAL ESTATE-RELATED INVESTMENTS
Each of the Asset Director Funds may invest up to 5% of its total
assets in real estate-related investments. Real estate-related instruments
include real estate investment trusts, commercial and residential
mortgage-backed securities, and real estate financings. Real estate-related
instruments are sensitive to factors such as changes in real estate values and
property taxes, interest rates, cash flow of underlying real estate assets,
overbuilding, and the management skill and creditworthiness of the issuer.
Real estate-related instruments may also be affected by tax and regulatory
requirements, such as those relating to the environment.
PRECIOUS METAL-RELATED INVESTMENTS
Each of the Asset Director Funds may invest up to 5% of its total
assets in precious metal-related investments. The Asset Director Funds may
invest in common stocks of companies principally engaged in precious
metal-related activities which include companies principally engaged in the
extraction, processing, distribution, or marketing of precious metals industry
if at the time of investment the Investment Manager considers that at least 50%
of the company's assets, revenues or profits are derived from the precious
metal industry. The Asset Director Funds may also invest in securities of
companies principally engaged in the precious metals industry in which the
Asset Director may be foreign or domestic. For further disclosure on foreign
securities, see "Foreign Investments" in this Statement of Additional
Information.
The Asset Director Funds may also invest in futures on precious
metals, such as gold futures, and options thereon. Such investments are
subject to the investment limitations for investments in futures and options
for the Asset Director Funds as set forth in "Futures Contracts and Options on
Futures Contracts" in this Statement of Additional Information.
Prices of precious metals can be expected to respond to changes in
rates of inflation and to perceptions of economic and political instability.
Historically, the prices of precious metals and of securities of companies
engaged in the precious metal-related activities may be subject to extreme
fluctuations, reflecting wider economic or political instability or for other
reasons.
U.S. GOVERNMENT SECURITIES
The Funds may purchase U.S. Government securities direct obligations
of the United States Government are supported by the full faith and credit of
the United States Treasury. While obligations of certain United States
Government agencies and instrumentalities are similarly backed, those of
others, such as the Federal National Mortgage Association and the Student Loan
Marketing Association, are only supported by the
16
<PAGE> 36
right of the issuer to borrow from the U.S. Treasury, the discretionary
authority of the U.S. Government to purchase the agency's obligations or the
credit of the issuing agency or instrumentality. There can be no assurance
that the U.S. Government would provide financial support to United States
Government sponsored agencies or instrumentalities if it is not obligated to do
so by law. A Fund will invest in U.S. Government securities not backed by the
full faith and credit of the United States Treasury only when Charles Schwab
Investment Management, Inc. (the "Investment Manager") is satisfied that the
credit risk with respect to their issuer is minimal.
GOVERNMENT "MORTGAGE BACKED" SECURITIES
Among the U.S. Government securities in which the Funds may invest are
government "mortgage-backed" (or government guaranteed mortgage-related)
securities. Mortgages backing the securities purchased by the Funds include,
among others, conventional thirty year fixed rate mortgages, graduated payment
mortgages, fifteen year mortgages and adjustable rate mortgages. All of these
mortgages can be used to create pass-through securities. A pass-through
security is formed when mortgages are pooled together and undivided interest in
the pool or pools are sold. The cash flow from the mortgages is passed through
to the holders of the securities in the form of periodic payments of interest,
principal and prepayments (net of a service fee). Prepayments occur when the
holder of an individual mortgage prepays the remaining principal before the
mortgage's scheduled maturity date. As a result of the pass-through of
prepayments of principal on the underlying securities, mortgage-backed
securities are often subject to more rapid prepayment of principal then their
stated maturity would indicate. Because the prepayment characteristics of the
underlying mortgages vary, it is not possible to predict accurately the
realized yield or average life of a particular issue of pass-through
certificates. Prepayment rates are important because of their effect on the
yield and price of the securities. Accelerated prepayments adversely impact
yields for pass-throughs purchased at a premium (i,e., a price in excess of
principal amount) and may involve additional risk of loss of principal because
the premium may not have been fully amortized at the time the obligation is
repaid. The opposite is true for pass-throughs purchased at a discount. The
Funds may purchase mortgage-related securities at a premium or at a discount.
Principal and interest payments on the mortgage-related securities are
government guaranteed to the extent described below. Such guarantees do not
extend to the value or yield of the mortgage-related securities themselves or
of a Fund's shares.
GNMA Certificates. Certificates of the Government National Mortgage
Association ("GNMA") are mortgaged securities which evidence an undivided
interest in a pool or pools of mortgages. GNMA Certificates that the Funds may
purchase are the "modified pass-through" type, which entitle the holder to
receive
17
<PAGE> 37
timely payment of all interest and principal payments due on the mortgage pool,
net of fees paid to the "issuer" and GNMA, regardless of whether or not the
mortgagor actually makes the payment.
The National Housing Act authorized GNMA to guarantee the timely
payment of principal and interest on securities backed by a pool of mortgages
insured by the Federal Housing Administration ("FHA") or guaranteed by the
Veterans Administration ("VA"). The GNMA guarantee is backed by the full faith
and credit of the United States. The GNMA is also empowered to borrow without
limitation from the U.S. Treasury if necessary to make any payments required
under its guarantee.
The average life of a GNMA Certificate is likely to be substantially
shorter than the original maturity of the mortgages underlying the securities.
Prepayments of principal by mortgagors and mortgage foreclosures will usually
result in the return of the greater part of principal investment long before
the maturity of the mortgages in the pool. Foreclosures impose no risk to
principal investment because of the GNMA guarantee, except to the extent that a
Fund has purchased the certificates above par in the secondary market.
FHLMC Securities. The Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation
("FHLMC") was created in 1970 to promote development of a nationwide secondary
market in conventional residential mortgages. The FHLMC issues two types of
mortgage pass-through securities ("FHLMC Certificates"), mortgage participation
certificates ("PCs") and guaranteed mortgage certificates ("GMCs"). PCs
resemble GNMA Certificates in that each PC represents a pro rata share of all
interest and principal payments made and owed on the underlying pool. The
FHLMC guarantees timely monthly payment of interest on PCs and the ultimate
payment of principal.
GMCs also represent a pro rata interest in a pool of mortgages.
However, these instruments pay interest semi-annually and return principal once
a year in guaranteed minimum payments. The expected average life of these
securities is approximately ten years. The FHLMC guarantee is not backed by
the full faith and credit of the United States.
FNMA Securities. The Federal National Mortgage Association ("FNMA")
was established in 1938 to create a secondary market in mortgages insured by
the FHA. FNMA issues guaranteed mortgage pass-through certificates ("FNMA
Certificates"). FNMA Certificates resemble GNMA Certificates in that each FNMA
Certificate represents a pro rata share of all interest and principal payments
made and owed on the underlying pool. FNMA guarantees timely payment of
interest and principal on FNMA Certificates. The FNMA guarantee is not backed
by the full faith and credit of the United States.

<PAGE> 38
OTHER ASSET-BACKED SECURITIES
The Asset Director Funds may invest a portion of their assets in debt
obligations known as "Asset-Backed Securities" that are rated in one of the
three highest rating categories by a nationally recognized statistical rating
organization (e.g., Standard & Poor's Corporation or Moody's Investors Service,
Inc.) or, if not so rated, deemed to be of equivalent quality by the Investment
Manager pursuant to guidelines adopted by the Board of Trustees. The credit
quality of most Asset-Backed Securities depends primarily on the credit quality
of the assets underlying such securities, how well the entity issuing the
security is insulated from the credit risk of the originator (or any other
affiliated entities), and the amount and quality of any credit support provided
to the securities. The rate of principal payments on asset-backed securities
generally depends on the rate of principal payments received on the underlying
assets, which in turn may be affected by a variety of economic and other
factors. As a result, the yield on any asset-backed security is difficult to
predict with precision and actual yield to maturity may be more or less than
the anticipated yield to maturity. Asset-Backed Securities may be classified
as "Pass-Through Certificates" or "Collateralized Obligations."
"Pass-Through Certificates" are asset-backed securities that represent
undivided fractional ownership interests in the underlying pool of assets.
Pass-Through Certificates usually provide for payments of principal and
interest received to be passed through to their holders, usually after
deduction for certain costs and expenses incurred in administering the pool.
Because Pass-Through Certificates represent ownership interests in the
underlying assets, the holders thereof bear directly the risk of any defaults
by the obligors on the underlying assets not covered by any credit support.
Asset-Backed Securities issued in the form of debt instruments, also
known as Collateralized Obligations, are generally issued as the debt of a
special purpose entity organized solely for the purpose of owning such assets
and issuing such debt. The assets collateralizing such Asset-Backed Securities
are pledged to a trustee or custodian for the benefit of the holders thereof.
Such issuers generally hold no assets other than those underlying the
Asset-Backed Securities and any credit support provided. As a result, although
payments on such Asset-Backed Securities are obligations of the issuers, in the
event of default on the underlying assets not covered by any credit support,
the issuing entities are unlikely to have sufficient assets to satisfy their
obligations on the related Asset-Backed Securities.
METHODS OF ALLOCATING CASH FLOWS
While many Asset-Backed Securities are issued with only one class of
security, many others are issued in more than one class, each with different
payment terms. Multiple class Asset-Backed Securities are issued for two main
reasons. First, multiple classes may be used as a method of providing credit
support. This is accomplished typically
19
<PAGE> 39
through creation of one or more classes whose right to payments on the
Asset-Backed Security is made subordinate to the right to such payments of the
remaining class or classes. Second, multiple classes may permit the issuance
of securities with payment terms, interest rates or other characteristics
differing both from those of each other and from those of the underlying
assets. Examples include so-called "multi-tranche CMOs" (collateralized
mortgage obligations) with serial maturities such that all principal payments
received on the mortgages underlying the securities are first paid to the class
with the earliest stated maturity, and then sequentially to the class with the
next stated maturity), "Strips" (Asset-Backed Securities entitling the holder
to disproportionate interests with respect to the allocation of interest and
principal of the assets backing the security), and securities with a class or
classes having characteristics which mimic the characteristics of
non-Asset-Backed Securities, such as floating interest rates (i.e., interest
rates which adjust as a specified benchmark changes) or scheduled amortization
of principal.
TYPES OF CREDIT SUPPORT
Asset-Backed Securities are often backed by a pool of assets
representing the obligations of a number of different parties. To lessen the
effect of failures by obligors on these underlying assets to make payments,
such securities may contain elements of credit support. Such credit support
falls into two classes: liquidity protection and protection against ultimate
default on the underlying assets. Liquidity protection refers to the provision
of advances, generally by the entity administering the pool of assets, to
ensure that scheduled payments on the underlying pool are made in a timely
fashion. Protection against ultimate default ensures payment on at least a
portion of the assets in the pool. Such protection may be provided through
guarantees, insurance policies or letters of credit obtained from third
parties, through various means of structuring the transaction, or through a
combination of such approaches. Examples of Asset-Backed Securities with
credit support arising out of the structure of the transaction include
"senior-subordinated securities" (multiple class Asset-Backed Securities with
certain classes subordinate to other classes as to the payment of principal
thereon, with the result that defaults on the underlying assets are borne first
by the holders of the subordinated class) and Asset-Backed Securities that have
"reserve funds" (where cash or investments, sometimes funded from a portion of
the initial payments on the underlying assets, are held in reserve against
future losses) or that have been "overcollateralized" (where the scheduled
payments on, or the principal amount of, the underlying assets substantially
exceed that required to make payment on the Asset-Backed Securities and pay any
servicing or other fees). The degree of credit support provided on each issue
is based generally on historical information respecting the level of credit
risk associated with such payments. Delinquency or loss in excess of that
anticipated could adversely affect the
20
<PAGE> 40
return on an investment in an Asset-Backed Security.
CREDIT CARD RECEIVABLE SECURITIES
The Asset Director Funds may invest in Asset-Backed Securities backed
by receivables from revolving credit card agreements ("Credit Card Receivable
Securities"). Most of the Credit Card Receivable Securities issued publicly to
date have been Pass-Through Certificates. In order to lengthen the maturity of
Credit Card Receivable Securities, most such securities provide for a fixed
period during which only interest payments on the underlying Accounts are
passed through to the security holder and principal payments received on such
Accounts are used to fund the transfer to the pool of assets supporting the
related Credit Card Receivable Securities of additional credit card charges
made on an Account. The initial fixed period usually may be shortened upon the
occurrence of specified events that signal a potential deterioration in the
quality of the assets backing the security, such as the imposition of a cap on
interest rates. The ability of the issuer to extend the life of an issue of
Credit Card Receivable Securities thus depends upon the continued generation of
additional principal amounts in the underlying accounts during the initial
period and the non-occurrence of specified events. Competitive and general
economic factors could adversely affect the rate at which new receivables are
created in an Account and conveyed to an issuer, shortening the expected
weighted average life of the related Credit Card Receivable Security, and
reducing its yield. An acceleration in cardholders' payment rates or any other
event that shortens the period during which additional credit card charges on
an Account may be transferred to the pool of assets supporting the related
Credit Card Receivable Security could have a similar effect on the weighted
average life and yield.
Credit card holders are entitled to the protection of a number of
state and federal consumer credit laws, many of which give such holders the
right to set off certain amounts against balances owed on the credit card,
thereby reducing amounts paid on Accounts. In addition, unlike most other
Asset-Backed Securities, Accounts are unsecured obligations of the cardholder.
CERTIFICATES OF DEPOSIT AND BANKERS' ACCEPTANCES
The Funds may invest in certificates of deposit which are certificates
issued against funds deposited in a banking institution for a specified period
of time at a specified interest rate. Bankers' acceptances are credit
instruments evidencing a bank's obligation to pay a draft drawn on it by a
customer. These instruments reflect the obligation both of the bank and of the
drawer to pay the full amount of the instrument upon maturity. Each Fund will
only invest in certificates of deposit and bankers' acceptances of banks
having capital,
21
<PAGE> 41
surplus and undivided profits in excess of $100 million.
COMMERCIAL PAPER
The Funds may invest in Commercial paper which consists of
short-term, unsecured promissory notes issued to finance short- term credit
needs. The Funds will only invest in commercial paper that at the time of
purchase is rated Prime-1 or Prime-2 by Moody's, A-1 or A-2 by S&P, "Duff 2" or
higher by Duff & Phelps, Inc. ("Duff"), or "F2" or higher by Fitch Investors
Services, Inc. ("Fitch") or if unrated by Moody's, S&P, Duff, or Fitch, is
determined by the Investment Manager, using guidelines approved by the Board of
Trustees, to be at least equal in quality to one or more of the above ratings.
OTHER INVESTMENT POLICIES
Securities which are acquired by the International Index Fund and the
Asset Director Funds outside the U.S. and which are publicly traded in the U.S.
or on a foreign securities exchange or in a foreign securities market are not
considered by the Funds to be illiquid assets so long as the Funds acquire and
hold the securities with the intention of reselling the securities in the
foreign trading market, the Funds reasonably believe they can readily dispose
of the securities in the foreign trading market, the Funds reasonably believe
they can readily dispose of the securities for cash in the U.S., or foreign
market and current market quotations are readily available. Investments may be
in securities of foreign issuers, whether located in developed or undeveloped
countries. Investments in foreign securities where delivery takes place
outside the U.S. will have to be made in compliance with any applicable U.S.
and foreign currency restrictions and tax laws (including laws imposing
withholding taxes on any dividend or interest income) and laws limiting the
amount and types of foreign investments. Changes of government administrations
or of economic or monetary policies, in the U.S. or abroad, or changed
circumstances convertibility or exchange rates could result in investment
losses for the Funds. Investments in foreign securities may also subject the
Funds to losses due to nationalization, expropriation or differing accounting
practices and treatments. Moreover, investors should recognize that foreign
securities are often traded with less frequency and volume, and therefore may
have greater price volatility, than is the case with many U.S. securities.
Notwithstanding the fact that the Funds generally intend to acquire the
securities of foreign issuers where there are public trading markets,
investments by the Funds in the securities of foreign issuers may tend to
increase the risks with respect to the liquidity of the Funds' portfolio and
the Funds' ability to meet a large number of shareholder redemption requests
should there be economic or political turmoil in a country in which the Funds
have a substantial portion of their assets invested or should relations between
the U.S. and foreign countries deteriorate markedly. Furthermore, the
reporting and disclosure requirements applicable to foreign issuers
22
<PAGE> 42
may differ from those applicable to domestic issuers, and there may be
difficulties in obtaining or enforcing judgments against foreign issuers.
Loans of Portfolio Securities. The Funds may loan securities to
qualified broker-dealers or other institutional investors provided that such
loans do not exceed one-third of the value of the Funds' total assets at the
time of the most recent loan, and that the borrower deposits and maintains with
the Funds cash collateral or U.S. government securities with a value equal to
102% of the value of the securities loaned. The lending of securities is a
common practice in the securities industry. The Funds will engage in security
lending arrangements with the primary objective of increasing the Funds' income
through investment of the cash collateral in short-term, interest-bearing
obligations, but will do so only to the extent that the Funds will not lose the
tax treatment available to regulated investment companies. The Funds will be
entitled to all dividends or interest on any loaned securities.
Repurchase Transactions. Repurchase agreements are instruments under
which a buyer acquires ownership of a security from a seller that agrees to
repurchase the security at a mutually agreed upon time and price (which price
is higher than the purchase price), thereby determining the yield during the
buyer's holding period. Under the 1940 Act, a repurchase agreement is deemed to
be the loan of money by a Fund to the seller, collateralized by the underlying
security. The interest rate is effective for the period of time in which the
Funds are invested in the agreement and is not related to the coupon rate on
the underlying security. Any repurchase agreements entered into by a Fund will
involve the Fund as the buyer and banks or broker-dealers as sellers
(repurchase agreements with broker-dealers will be limited to obligations of
the U.S. Government, its agencies or instrumentalities). The period of these
repurchase agreements will usually be short, from overnight to one week, and at
no time will the Funds invest in repurchase agreements for more than one year.
However, the securities which are subject to repurchase agreements may have
maturity dates in excess of one year from the effective date of the repurchase
agreements. The transaction requires the initial collateralization of the
seller's obligation with securities having a market value, including accrued
interest, equal to at least 102% of the dollar amount invested by the Funds,
with the value marked-to-market daily to maintain 100% coverage. A default by
the seller might cause the Funds to experience a loss or delay in the
liquidation of the collateral securing the repurchase agreement. The Funds
might also incur disposition costs in liquidating the collateral. The Funds
will make payment for such securities only upon physical delivery or evidence
of book entry transfer to the account of its custodian bank. The Funds may not
enter into a repurchase agreement of more than seven days duration if, as a
result, the market value of the Funds' net assets, together with investments in
other securities deemed to be not readily marketable, would be invested in
excess of
23
<PAGE> 43
the Funds' policy on investments in illiquid securities.
In the event of a bankruptcy or other default of a repurchase
agreement's seller, a Fund might incur expenses in enforcing its rights, and
could experience losses, including a decline in the value of the underlying
securities and loss of income. Each Fund will not invest more than 10% of its
total assets at the time of purchase in repurchase agreements maturing in more
than seven days and other illiquid securities.
Illiquid Securities. Each Fund reserves the right to invest up to 10%
of its net assets in illiquid securities. Generally an "illiquid security"
is any security that cannot be disposed of promptly and in the ordinary course
of business at approximately the amount at which the Funds have valued the
instrument. Subject to this limitation, the Funds may invest in restricted
securities where such investment is consistent with the Funds' investment
objectives and such securities may be considered to be liquid to the extent the
Funds' Investment Manager determines that there is a liquid institutional or
other market for such securities. In determining whether a restricted security
is properly considered a liquid security, the Funds' Investment Manager will
take into account the following factors: (i) the frequency of trades and quotes
for the security; (ii) the number of dealers willing to purchase or sell the
security and the number of potential purchasers; (iii) dealer undertakings to
make a market in the security; and (iv) the nature of the security and the
nature of the marketplace trades (e.g., the time needed to dispose of the
security, the method of soliciting offers, and the mechanics of transfer). To
the extent the Funds invest in restricted securities that are deemed liquid,
the general level of illiquidity in the Funds' portfolio may be increased if
qualified institutional buyers become uninterested in purchasing these
securities contracts.
24
<PAGE> 44
INVESTMENT RESTRICTIONS
Except as otherwise noted, the restrictions below are fundamental and
cannot be changed without approval of the holders of a majority of the
outstanding voting securities (as defined in the 1940 Act). Each of the Funds
may not:
1) As to 75% of its assets, purchase securities of any issuer
(other than obligations of, or guaranteed by, the United States Government, its
agencies or instrumentalities) if, as a result, more than 5% of the value of
its total assets would be invested in the securities of such issuer.
2) Purchase securities (other than securities issued or
guaranteed by the U.S. Government, its agencies or instrumentalities) if, as a
result of such purchase, 25% or more of the value of its total assets would be
invested in any industry (except that the Funds may purchase securities under
such circumstances only to the extent that the Schwab International Index(TM) or
the Schwab Small-Cap Index(TM) is also so concentrated).
3) Invest more than 10% of the total value of its assets in
illiquid securities, including repurchase agreements with maturities in excess
of seven days.
4) Purchase or retain securities of an issuer if any of the
officers, trustees or directors of the Trust, or the Investment Manager
individually own beneficially more than 1/2 of 1% of the securities of such
issuer and together beneficially own more than 5% of the securities of such
issuer.
5) Purchase or sell commodities or real estate, including
interests in real estate limited partnerships, provided that each Fund may (i)
purchase securities of companies that deal in real estate or interests therein,
(ii) purchase or sell futures contracts, options contracts, equity index
participations and index participation contracts, and (iii) for the Asset
Director Funds, purchase securities of companies that deal in precious metals
or interests therein.
6) Invest for the purpose of exercising control or management of
another issuer.
7) Purchase securities of other investment companies, except as
permitted by the 1940 Act.
8) Lend money to any person, except that each Fund may (i)
purchase a portion of an issue of short-term debt securities or similar
obligations (including repurchase
25
<PAGE> 45
agreements) that are publicly distributed or customarily purchased by
institutional investors, and (ii) lend its portfolio securities.
9) Borrow money except from banks as a temporary measure to
satisfy redemption requests or for extraordinary or emergency purposes and then
only in an amount not to exceed one-third of the value of its total assets
(including the amount borrowed), provided that each Fund will not purchase
securities while borrowings represent more than 5% of its total assets.
10) Pledge, mortgage or hypothecate any of its assets except that,
to secure allowable borrowings, each Fund may do so with respect to no more
than one-third of the value of its total assets.
11) Underwrite securities issued by others except to the extent it
may be deemed to be an underwriter, under the federal securities laws, in
connection with the disposition of securities from its investment portfolio.
In order to permit the sale of shares of each Fund in certain
jurisdictions, each Fund may make commitments more restrictive than the
fundamental operating restrictions described above. Should it do so and later
determine that any such commitment is no longer in the best interests of the
Fund and its shareholders, it will revoke the commitment(s) by terminating
sales of its shares in the jurisdiction(s) involved.
The following restrictions are non-fundamental and may be changed by
the Trust's Board of Trustees. Each of the Funds may not:
1) Purchase more than 10% of any class of securities of any
issuer if, as a result of such purchase, it would own more than 10% of such
issuer's outstanding voting securities.
2) Invest more than 5% of its total assets in securities of
issuers (other than obligations of, or guaranteed by the United States
Government, its agencies or instrumentalities) that with their predecessors
have a record of less than three years continuous operation.
3) Invest more than 5% of its net assets in warrants, valued at
the lower of cost or market, and no more than 40% of this 5% may be invested in
warrants that are not listed on the New York Stock Exchange or the American
Stock Exchange, provided, however, that for purposes of this restriction,
warrants acquired by a Fund in units or attached to other securities are deemed
to be without value.
26
<PAGE> 46
4) Purchase puts, calls, straddles, spreads or any combination
thereof if by reason of such purchase the value of its aggregate investment in
such securities would exceed 5% of the Fund's total assets.
5) Make short sales, except for short sales against the box.
6) Purchase or sell interests in oil, gas or other mineral
development programs or leases, although it may invest in companies that own or
invest in such interests or leases.
7) Purchase securities on margin, except such short-term credits
as may be necessary for the clearance of purchases and sales of securities.

1. Figures are for the Trust's fiscal year ended October 31, 1994.
2. "Fund Complex" comprises all 19 funds of the Trust, The Charles
Schwab Family of Funds, Schwab Investments and Schwab Annuity
Portfolios.
Pursuant to exemptive relief received by the Trust from the Securities and
Exchange Commission, the Trust may enter into deferred fee arrangements (the
"Fee Deferral Plan" or the "Plan") with the Trust's trustees who are not
"interested persons" of any of the Funds of the Trust (the "Independent
Trustees" or the "Trustees").
As of the date of this Statement of Additional Information, none of the
Independent Trustees has elected to participate in the Fee Deferral Plan. In
the event an Independent Trustee does
31
<PAGE> 51
elect to participate in the Plan, the Plan would operate as described below.
Under the Plan, deferred Trustee's fees will be credited to a book reserve
account established by the Trust (the "Deferred Fee Account"), as of the date
such fees would have been paid to such Trustee. The value of the Deferred Fee
Account as of any date will be equal to the value the Account would have had as
of that date if the amounts credited to the Account had been invested and
reinvested in the securities of the SchwabFund(R) or SchwabFunds selected by
the participating Trustee (the "Selected SchwabFund Securities"). SchwabFunds
include the series or classes of beneficial interest of the Trust, The Charles
Schwab Family of Funds, and Schwab Investments.
Pursuant to the exemptive relief granted to the Trust, each Fund will
purchase and maintain the Selected SchwabFund Securities in an amount equal to
the deemed investments in that Fund of the Deferred Fee Accounts of the
Independent Trustees. The exemptive relief granted to the Trust permits the
Funds and the Trustees to purchase the Selected SchwabFund Securities, which
transactions would otherwise be limited or prohibited by the investment
policies and/or restrictions of the Funds. See "Investment Restrictions."
INVESTMENT MANAGER
The Investment Manager, a wholly-owned subsidiary of The Charles
Schwab Corporation, serves as the Funds' investment adviser and administrator
pursuant to an Investment Advisory and Administration Agreement (the "Advisory
Agreement") between it and the Trust. The Investment Manager is registered as
an investment adviser under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940, as amended,
and currently provides investment management services to the SchwabFunds(R), a
family of 18 mutual funds with approximately $27 billion in assets as of June
15, 1995. The Investment Manager is an affiliate of Schwab, the Trust's
distributor and shareholder services and transfer agent. The Advisory
Agreement will continue in effect until July 21, 1996 with respect to the
Schwab International Index Fund, October 14, 1996 with respect to the Schwab
Small-Cap Index Fund, [ ] with respect to the Asset Director Funds, and
thereafter will continue for one year terms subject to annual approval by: (1)
the Trust's Board of Trustees or (2) a vote of a majority (as defined in the
1940 Act) of the outstanding voting securities of a Fund. In either event, the
continuance must also be approved by a majority of the Trust's Board of
Trustees who are not parties to the Agreement or interested persons (as defined
in the 1940 Act) of any such party by vote cast in person at a meeting called
for the purpose of voting on such approval. The Advisory Agreement may be
terminated at any time upon 60 days notice by either party, or by a majority
vote of the outstanding shares of a Fund, and will terminate automatically upon
assignment.

International Index Fund. For its advisory and administrative
services to the International Index Fund, the Investment Manager is entitled to
receive a graduated annual fee, payable monthly, of 0.70% of the Fund's average
daily net assets not in excess of $300 million, and 0.60% of such assets over
$300 million.
The Investment Manager and Schwab have guaranteed that, through at
least June 30, 1996, the total fund operating expenses for the International
Index Fund will not exceed 0.69% of that Fund's average daily net assets.
For the fiscal period from September 9, 1993 (commencement of
operations) to October 31, 1993, no investment advisory fees were paid by the
International Index Fund (fees were reduced by $97,986). For the fiscal year
ended October 31, 1994, the International Index Fund paid investment advisory
fees of $474,0000 (fees were reduced by $388,000).
Small-Cap Index Fund. For its advisory and administrative services to
the Small-Cap Index Fund, the Investment Manager is entitled to receive a
graduated annual fee, payable monthly, of 0.50% of the Fund's average daily net
assets not in excess of $300 million, and 0.45% of such assets over $300
million.
The Investment Manager and Schwab have guaranteed that, through June
30, 1996, the total fund operating expenses for the Small-Cap Index Fund will
not exceed 0.59% of that Fund's average daily net assets.
For the fiscal period from December 3, 1993 (commencement of
operations) to October 31, 1994, the Small-Cap Index Fund paid investment
advisory fees of $151,861 (fees were reduced by $106,533).
Asset Director Funds. For its advisory and administrative services
to the Asset Director Funds, the Investment Manager is entitled to receive a
graduated annual fee, payable monthly, of 0.74% of each Fund's average daily net
assets not in excess of $1 billion, and 0.69% of such net assets over $1
billion; and 0.64% of such net assets over $2 billion.
The Investment Manager and Schwab have guaranteed that, through
at least December 31, 1996, the total fund operating expenses for the
International Index Fund will not exceed 0.89% of each Fund's average daily net
assets.
Additional Information. The Advisory Agreement provides that the fees
to be paid to the Investment Manager will be less than the amount that would
cause the aggregate operating expenses of a Fund (excluding interest, taxes,
net brokerage commissions and extraordinary expenses) in any year to exceed the
most stringent limits prescribed by any state in which shares of a Fund are
offered for sale. The most stringent current limit for such expenses is 2.5%
of a fund's first $30 million of average net assets, 2.0% of a fund's next $70
million of average net
33
<PAGE> 53
assets and 1.5% of a fund's average net assets in excess of $100 million.
From time to time, each Fund may compare its total operating expense
ratio to the total operating expense ratio of other mutual funds or mutual fund
averages with similar investment objectives as reported by Lipper Analytical
Service, Inc., Morningstar, Inc. or other independent sources of such
information ("independent sources").
SUB-ADVISER
The Investment Manager has entered into an investment sub-advisory
agreement (the "Sub-Advisory Agreement") with respect to the Asset Director
Funds with Symphony Asset Management, Inc. (the "Sub-Adviser"), pursuant to
which it will act as the Funds' sub-adviser. The Sub-Adviser is registered as
an investment adviser under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940 and as of
June 30, 1995 managed directly and indirectly approximately $600 million in
institutional and private account assets.
The Sub-Adviser furnishes investment advice through direct assistance
to the Investment Manager in the development and execution of quantitatively
based investment strategies. The Sub-Adviser uses a sophisticated optimization
technique known as "Tactical Asset Allocation" in evaluating the optimal
allocation of the Asset Director Funds' assets among asset categories: stocks,
bonds, and cash.
Tactical Asset Allocation is a value-oriented strategy which seeks the
highest reward for a given level of risk. Expected returns are measured for
each asset category; for stocks, the internal rate of return is measured on
forecasted dividend stream; for bonds, the yield to maturity is evaluated on
representative long corporate bonds; and cash equivalents, yield to maturity
evaluated on representative money market instruments. Risks and correlations
of the asset categories are measured from long-term return histories.
The Investment Manager pays the Sub-Adviser an annual investment
sub-advisory fee, payable monthly, of ___% each of the Asset Director Fund's
average daily net assets not in excess of $____ million, and ____% of such
assets over $____ million.
As of May 1, 1995 and June 30, 1995, Dimensional Fund Advisors Inc.
("Dimensional") no longer served as the sub-adviser to the Schwab Small-Cap
Index Fund and the Schwab International Index Fund, respectively. As of the
same dates, the Investment Manager became responsible for providing all
investment advisory services to the Funds.
Expenses. Under the sub-advisory agreement between Dimensional and
the Investment Manager, the Investment Manager paid Dimensional the following
amounts for the fiscal periods indicated below.
International Index Fund: $20,999 and $185,000 for the fiscal period from
34
<PAGE> 54
September 9, 1993 (commencement of operations) to October 31, 1993 and for the
fiscal year ended October 31, 1994, respectively.
Small-Cap Index Fund: $51,419 for the fiscal period from December 3, 1993
(commencement of operations) to October 31, 1994.
DISTRIBUTOR
Pursuant to a Distribution Agreement, Schwab is the principal
underwriter for shares of the Trust and is the Trust's agent for the purpose of
the continuous offering of the Funds' shares. Each Fund pays the cost for the
prospectuses and shareholder reports to be prepared and delivered to existing
shareholders. Schwab pays such costs when the described materials are used in
connection with the offering of shares to prospective investors and for
supplementary sales literature and advertising. Schwab receives no fee under
the Distribution Agreement. Terms of continuation, termination and assignment
under the Distribution Agreement are identical to those described above with
respect to the Advisory Agreement.

PORTFOLIO TRANSACTIONS AND TURNOVER
PORTFOLIO TRANSACTIONS
In effecting securities transactions for the Funds, the Investment
Manager seeks to obtain best price and execution. Subject to the supervision
of the Board of Trustees, the Investment Manager will generally select brokers
and dealers for the Funds primarily on the basis of the quality and reliability
of brokerage services, including execution capability and financial
responsibility. In assessing these criteria, the Investment Manager will,
among other things, monitor the performance of brokers effecting transactions
for the Funds to determine the effect, if any, the Funds' transactions through
those brokers have on the market prices of the stocks involved. This may be of
particular importance for the Funds' investments in relatively smaller
companies whose stocks are not as actively traded as those of their larger
counterparts. The Funds will seek to buy and sell securities in a manner that
causes the least possible fluctuation in the prices of those stocks in view of
the size of the transactions.
In an attempt to obtain best execution for the Funds, the Investment
Manager may also place orders directly with market makers or with third market
brokers, Instinet or brokers on an agency basis. Placing orders with third
market brokers or through Instinet may enable the Funds to trade directly with
other institutional holders on a net basis. At times, this may allow the Funds
to trade larger blocks than would be possible trading through a single market
maker.
When the execution and price offered by two or more broker-dealers are
comparable, the Investment Manager may, in its discretion, in agency
transactions (and not principal transactions) utilize the services of
broker-dealers that provide it with investment information and other research
resources. Such resources may also be used by the Investment Manager when
providing advisory services to other investment advisory clients, including
mutual funds.
In determining when and to what extent to use Schwab as its broker for
executing orders for the Funds on securities exchanges, the Investment Manager
will consider (if relevant) whether the compensation to be paid Schwab will be
(i) fair and reasonable, (ii) at least as favorable to the Funds as commissions
that would be charged by other qualified brokers having comparable execution
capabilities, and (iii) at least as favorable as commissions contemporaneously
charged by Schwab on comparable transactions for its most favored unaffiliated
customers. The Funds do not consider it practicable or in the best interests
of their shareholders to solicit competitive bids for commission rates on each
transaction. However, the Board of Trustees, including a majority of the
trustees who are not "interested persons" of Schwab within the meaning of the
1940 Act, (i) has prescribed procedures designed
36
<PAGE> 56
to provide that the Funds do not pay commissions that do not meet the standards
described above, (ii) reviews those procedures annually to determine whether
they remain adequate, and (iii) considers quarterly whether or not the
commissions charged by Schwab have met the standards.
Schwab's brokerage services to the Funds are also subject to Rule
11a2-2(T) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Rule
11a2-2(T) permits the Funds to use Schwab as a broker provided certain
conditions are met. Among these requirements are that the floor brokerage
element of portfolio transactions (that is, execution on the exchange floor or
through use of exchange facilities) be performed by members of the exchange not
associated with Schwab, that the orders to such members be transmitted from off
the exchange floor and that neither Schwab nor an associated person of Schwab
participates in the execution of the transaction after the order has been so
transmitted. In connection with transactions in which Schwab acts as broker
for the Funds, Schwab, while not permitted to perform floor brokerage (which is
undertaken by members selected by Schwab who are not associated with that
firm), still continues to bear principal responsibility for determining
important elements of overall execution such as timing and order size, and also
clears and settles such transactions. Schwab pays the fees charged by those
persons performing the described floor brokerage elements. Schwab will not
trade directly with the Funds in any transactions in which Schwab or an
affiliate acts as principal.
Brokerage Commissions. For the fiscal period from December 3, 1993
(commencement of operations) to October 31, 1994, the Small-Cap Index Fund paid
brokerage commissions of $165,997. For the fiscal period from September 9,
1993 (commencement of operations) to October 31, 1993 and for the fiscal year
ended October 31, 1994, the International Index Fund paid brokerage
commissions of $170,195 and $86,127, respectively.
PORTFOLIO TURNOVER
For reporting purposes, each Fund's turnover rate is calculated by
dividing the value of purchases or sales of portfolio securities for the fiscal
year, whichever is less, by the monthly average value of portfolio securities
owned by the Fund during the fiscal year. When making the calculation, all
securities whose maturities at the time of acquisition were one year or less
("short-term securities") are excluded.
A 100% portfolio turnover rate would occur, for example, if all
portfolio securities (aside from short-term securities) were sold and either
repurchased or replaced once during the fiscal year. The Funds expect that
their portfolio turnover rate will not exceed 100% in any given year, a
turnover rate lower than that of most non-index mutual funds. A high portfolio
turnover rate may increase a Fund's transaction costs. The International Index
Fund's portfolio turnover rate for the fiscal period from
37
<PAGE> 57
September 9, 1993 (commencement of operations) to October 31, 1993 and for the
fiscal year ended October 31, 1994 was 2% and 6%, respectively. The Small-Cap
Index Fund's portfolio turnover rate for the fiscal period from December 3,
1993 (commencement of operations) to October 31, 1994 was 16%.
From time to time, each Fund may compare its portfolio turnover rate with
that of other mutual funds as reported by independent sources.
TAXES
It is the policy of each Fund to qualify for taxation as a "regulated
investment company" by meeting the requirements of Subchapter M of the Code.
By following this policy, each Fund expects to eliminate or reduce to a nominal
amount the federal income tax to which it is subject.
In order to qualify as a regulated investment company, each of the
Funds must, among other things, (1) derive at least 90% of its gross income
from dividends, interest, payments with respect to securities loans and gains
from the sale or other disposition of stocks, securities, foreign currencies or
other income (including gains from options, futures or forward contracts)
derived with respect to its business of investing in stocks, securities or
currencies; (2) derive less than 30% of its gross income from gains from the
sale or other disposition of certain assets (including stocks and securities)
held for less than three months; and (3) diversify its holdings so that at the
end of each quarter of its taxable year (i) at least 50% of the market value of
the Fund's total assets is represented by cash or cash items, United States
Government securities, securities of other regulated investment companies and
other securities limited, in respect of any one issuer, to a value not greater
than 5% of the value of the Fund's total assets and 10% of the outstanding
voting securities of such issuer, and (ii) not more than 25% of the value of
its assets is invested in the securities of any one issuer (other than United
States Government securities or securities of any other regulated investment
company) or of two or more issuers that the Fund controls, within the meaning
of the Code, and that are engaged in the same, similar or related trades or
businesses. These requirements may restrict the degree to which a Fund may
engage in short-term trading and certain hedging transactions and may limit the
range of a Fund's investments. If a Fund qualifies as a regulated investment
company, it will not be subject to federal income tax on the part of its net
investment income and net realized capital gains, if any, which it distributes
to shareholders, provided that the Fund meets certain minimum distribution
requirements. To comply with these requirements, a Fund must distribute at
least (a) 90% of its "investment company
38
<PAGE> 58
taxable income" (as that term is defined in the Code) and (b) 90% of the excess
of its (i) tax-exempt interest income over (ii) certain deductions attributable
to that income (with certain exceptions), for its taxable year. Each Fund
intends to make sufficient distributions to shareholders to meet these
requirements.
The Code imposes a non-deductible excise tax on regulated investment
companies that do not distribute in a calendar year (regardless of whether they
otherwise have a non-calendar taxable year) an amount equal to 98% of their
"ordinary income" (as defined in the Code) for the calendar year plus 98% of
their capital gain net income for the one year period ending on October 31 of
such calendar year. The balance of such income must be distributed during the
next calendar year. For the foregoing purposes, a Fund is treated as having
distributed any amount on which it is subject to income tax for any taxable
year ending in such calendar year. If the distributions during a calendar year
were less than the required amount, the Fund is subject to a non-deductible
excise tax equal to 4% of the deficiency.
A Fund's transactions in futures contracts, forward contracts, foreign
currency transactions, options, and certain other investment and hedging
activities is subject to special tax rules. In a given case, these rules may
accelerate income to a Fund, defer its losses, cause adjustments in the
holding periods of the Fund's assets, convert short-term capital losses into
long-term capital losses or otherwise affect the character of the Fund's
income. These rules could therefore affect the amount, timing and character of
distributions to shareholders. The Funds will endeavor to make any available
elections pertaining to these transactions in a manner believed to be in the
best interest of the Funds and their shareholders.
INCOME TAX INFORMATION
Any dividends declared by the Funds in October, November or December
to shareholders of record during those months and paid during the following
January are treated, for tax purposes, as if they were received by each
shareholder on December 31 of the year declared.
Dividends paid by the Funds from net investment income and
distributions from the Funds' net short-term capital gains in excess of any net
long-term capital losses, whether received in cash or reinvested, generally
will be taxable to shareholders as ordinary income. For corporate investors in
the Funds, dividend distributions designated by the Funds to be from dividends
received from qualifying domestic corporations will be eligible for the 70%
corporate dividends-received deduction to the extent they would qualify if the
Funds were regular corporations. Distributions received from the Funds
designated as long-term capital gains (net of capital losses), whether received
in cash or reinvested, will be taxable as long-term capital gains without
regard to the length of time a shareholder owned shares in the Funds. However,
if a shareholder receives a long-term capital gain distribution with
39
<PAGE> 59
respect to Funds' shares held for six months or less, any loss on the sale or
exchange of those shares shall, to the extent of the long-term capital gain
distribution, be treated as a long-term capital loss. If a shareholder is not
subject to income tax, generally the shareholder will not be taxed on amounts
distributed by the Funds.
A Fund will be required in certain cases to withhold and remit to the
United States Treasury 31% of taxable dividends paid to any shareholder (1)
who fails to provide a correct taxpayer identification number certified under
penalty of perjury; (2) who is subject to withholding by the Internal Revenue
Service for failure to properly report all payments of interest or dividends;
or (3) who fails to provide a certified statement that he or she is not subject
to "backup withholding." This "backup withholding" is not an additional tax
and any amounts withheld may be credited against the shareholder's ultimate
U.S. tax liability.
The foregoing discussion relates only to federal income tax law as
applicable to U.S. citizens or residents. Foreign shareholders (i.e.,
nonresident alien individuals and foreign corporations, partnerships, trusts
and estates) generally are subject to U.S. withholding tax at the rate of 30%
(or a lower tax treaty rate) on distributions derived from net investment
income and short-term capital gains. Distributions to foreign shareholders of
long-term capital gains and any gains from the sale or other disposition of
shares of the Funds generally are not subject to U.S. taxation, unless the
recipient is an individual who meets the Code's definition of "resident alien."
Different tax consequences may result if the foreign shareholder is engaged in
a trade or business within the United States. In addition, the tax
consequences to a foreign shareholder entitled to claim the benefits of a tax
treaty may be different than those described above. Distributions by a Fund
may also be subject to state, local and foreign taxes, and its treatment under
applicable tax laws may differ from the federal income tax treatment.
Although the International Index Fund and the Asset Director Funds
will attempt not to invest in any non-U.S. corporation which could be treated
as a passive Foreign investment company ("PFIC"), or become a PFIC, under the
Code, it might inadvertently do so. This could result in adverse tax
consequences upon the disposition of, or the receipt of "excess distributions"
with respect to, such equity investments. To the extent the International
Index Fund and the Asset Director Funds do invest in PFIC, they may adopt
certain tax strategies to reduce or eliminate the adverse effects of certain
federal tax provisions governing PFIC investments. Many non-U.S. banks and
insurance companies may not be treated as PFICs if they satisfy certain
technical requirements under the Code. To the extent that the International
Index Fund and the Asset Director Funds do invest in foreign securities which
are determined to be PFIC securities and are required to pay a tax on such
investments, a credit for this tax would not be allowed to be passed
40
<PAGE> 60
through to the International Index Fund's and the Asset Director Funds'
shareholders. Therefore, the payment of this tax would reduce the
International Index Fund's and the Asset Director Funds' economic return from
their PFIC shares and excess distributions received with respect to such shares
are treated as ordinary income rather than capital gains.
This discussion of federal income taxation presented above only
summarizes some of the important federal tax considerations generally affecting
purchasers of Fund shares. No attempt has been made to present a detailed
explanation of the federal income tax treatment of a Fund and its shareholders,
and the discussion is not intended as a substitute for careful tax planning.
Accordingly, prospective investors (particularly those not residing or
domiciled in the United States) should consult their own tax advisers regarding
the consequences of investing in a Fund.
SHARE PRICE CALCULATION
Each Fund's net asset value per share is determined each day the New
York Stock Exchange is open for trading as of 4:00 p.m., Eastern time. The net
asset value of the International Index Fund is expressed in U.S. dollars by
translating the Fund's assets using the bid price for the U.S. dollar as quoted
by generally recognized, reliable sources. Currently, the New York Stock
Exchange is closed on the following holidays: New Year's Day (observed),
Presidents' Day, Good Friday, Memorial Day, Independence Day, Labor Day,
Thanksgiving Day and Christmas Day. The Funds value their portfolio securities
based on their market value. Each security held by the Funds which is listed
on a securities exchange and for which market quotations are available is
valued at the last quoted sale price for a given day, or if a sale is not
reported for that day, at the mean between the most recent quoted bid and asked
prices. Price information on each listed security is taken from the exchange
where the security is primarily traded. Unlisted securities for which market
quotations are readily available are valued at the mean between the most recent
bid and asked prices. The value of other assets for which no quotations are
readily available (including any restricted securities) are valued at fair
value as determined in good faith by the Investment Manager pursuant to Board
of Trustees guidelines. Securities may be valued on the basis of prices
provided by pricing services when such prices are believed to reflect fair
market value.

HOW THE FUNDS REFLECT PERFORMANCE
STANDARDIZED TOTAL RETURN
Average annual total return for a period is determined by calculating
the actual dollar amount of investment return on a $1,000 investment in the
Fund made at the beginning of the period, then calculating the average annual
compounded rate of return that would produce the same investment return on the
$1,000 over the same period. In computing average annual total return, the
Fund assumes the reinvestment of all distributions at net asset value on
applicable reinvestment dates. For the fiscal period from September 9, 1993
(commencement of operations) to October 31, 1993 and for the fiscal year ended
October 31, 1994, the International Index Fund's total return was 1.5% and
7.9%, respectively. For the fiscal period from December 3, 1993 (commencement
of operations) to October 31, 1994, the Small-Cap Index Fund's total return was
0.63%.
NONSTANDARDIZED TOTAL RETURN
Nonstandardized total return for a Fund differs from standardized
total return in that it relates to periods other than the period for
standardized total return and/or that it represents aggregate (rather than
average) total return.
In addition, an after-tax total return for each Fund may be calculated
by taking that Fund's standardized or non-standardized total return and
subtracting applicable federal taxes from the portions of each Fund's total
return attributable to capital gains distributions and ordinary income. This
after-tax total return may be compared to that of other mutual funds with
similar investment objectives as reported by independent sources.
Each Fund may also report the percentage of that Fund's standardized
or non-standardized total return which would be paid to taxes annually (at the
applicable federal personal income and capital gains tax rates) before
redemption of Fund shares. This proportion may be compared to that of other
mutual funds with similar investment objectives as reported by independent
sources.
COMPARING THE PERFORMANCE OF THE FUNDS WITH OTHER FUNDS.
The performance of the Funds may be compared with the performance of
other mutual funds by comparing the ratings of mutual fund rating services,
various indices of investment performance, United States government
obligations, bank certificates of deposit, the consumer price index, and other
investments for which reliable data is available.

THE BENEFITS OF INTERNATIONAL INVESTING
INCREASED DIVERSIFICATION
CAN LOWER RISK
To some extent, all U.S.-based investments -- stocks, bonds, mutual
funds and CDs -- are affected by the same economic forces. Tax cuts, interest
rate changes and the performance of the U.S. stock market can all influence
U.S. investments. Adding international (or overseas) investments to a
U.S.-based portfolio has historically reduced the portfolio's overall
volatility. Although U.S. and international markets may be interrelated, they
do not move in tandem -- so losses in one market can be offset by gains in
another.
POTENTIALLY HIGHER
OVERALL PERFORMANCE
During the past 10 years ending December 31, 1994, international
equity markets outperformed the U.S. equity market and most other U.S.
securities investments -- corporate bonds, CDs and U.S. Treasuries. The
returns produced by the international markets have also kept investors well
ahead of inflation. This historical performance means that investors
diversified overseas earned a higher level of return.
BROADER GROWTH OPPORTUNITIES
Investors who limit their portfolios to U.S. securities are missing
these investment opportunities. Ten years ago, the United States made up more
than half of the world's equity investments. As of December 31, 1993, it
represented just over one-third.
INDEXING AND THE SCHWAB INDEX FUNDS
Because the unmanaged performance of a broad-based equity index has
often proven superior to that of many individually selected stock portfolios, a
growing percentage of assets invested in the equity markets are being placed in
"index" portfolios. Institutional investors often devote a substantial
percentage of their assets to indexed strategies.
An index typically tracks the performance of a group of securities
selected to represent a particular market, and is most often used to gauge that
market's performance. The Dow Jones Industrial Average ("DJIA") and Standard &
Poor's 500 Index(R) ("S&P 500") are two indices designed to measure the
performance of United States stocks. When investment managers invest indexed
separate accounts or index fund assets, they attempt to replicate the
performance of the applicable target index by holding
43
<PAGE> 63
all or a representative sample of the securities included in the index.
The Funds performance data assume the reinvestment of dividends, but
do not reflect deductions for administrative and management expenses. The
Funds will be subject to these costs and expenses. In addition, various
factors may cause the Funds' performance to be higher or lower than that of the
Index.
THE SCHWAB INTERNATIONAL
INDEX(TM)
The Schwab International Index(TM) is a broad-based stock market index
which contains the common stocks of the 350 largest operating companies (i.e.,
non-investment companies) incorporated outside the United States. To reduce
undue risk, the Index represents equities only from countries that are
considered to have developed markets and economies. By tracking the largest
companies in developed markets, the Index represents the performance of the
"blue chips" of international markets. The Index is also designed to provide a
broad representation of the international market, by limiting each country to
no more than 35% of the total market capitalization of the Index. As the
stocks contained in the Index represent about 35% of the total market
capitalization of international companies, the Index provides a reliable
measure of market performance. The Schwab International Index(TM) was first
made available to the public on July 29, 1993.
THE SCHWAB SMALL-CAP INDEX(TM)
To be included in the Schwab Small-Cap Index, a company must satisfy
all of the following criteria: (1) it must be an "operating company" (i.e., not
an investment company) incorporated in the United States, its territories or
possessions; (2) a liquid market for its common shares must exist on the New
York Stock Exchange, American Stock Exchange or the NASDAQ/NMS, and (3) its
market value must place it among the second 1000 such companies as measured by
market capitalization (i.e., from the company with a rank of 1001 through the
company with a rank of 2000). Shareholders generally avoid exposure to the
smallest companies, whose shares are often thinly traded and very volatile,
because these stocks are not included in the Index.
A particular stock's weighting in the Schwab Small-Cap Index is based
on its relative total market value (i.e., its market price per share times the
number of shares outstanding), divided by the total market capitalization of
the Schwab Small-Cap Index. The returns produced by the United States stock
market during the 25 years ending December 31, 1990 have been exceeded by those
of very few types of securities investments. Because the unmanaged performance
of the U.S. stock market has often proven superior to that of many individually
selected stock portfolios, a growing percentage of assets invested in the
equity markets are being placed in "index" portfolios. From less than $9
billion in 1980, indexed institutional
44
<PAGE> 64
holdings have grown to over $280 billion, a figure equal to approximately
one-quarter of all institutional assets. (Source: Callan Associates Survey,
reported in Fall 1990 edition of The Journal of Portfolio Management).
Historically a long-term investment in a group of common stocks
representative of the stock market as a whole as well as a group of common
stocks representative of small-cap stocks has significantly exceeded that of
U.S. Treasury Bills, CDs, corporate bonds and inflation.
ASSET ALLOCATION STRATEGIES USING SCHWABFUNDS(R)
Shareholders of SchwabFunds may wish to invest in the SchwabFunds as
part of their personal asset allocation plan. An asset allocation program is
available through Schwab. This program may help shareholders select
investments, including investments in SchwabFunds, that match their individual
investment needs. The shareholders' personal investment plan is based on a
number of factors including personal financial situation, time horizon,
investment objectives and goals, and risk tolerance.
ACCESS TO SCHWAB'S MUTUAL
FUND ONESOURCE SERVICE(TM)
With Schwab's Mutual Fund OneSource Service (TM) ("OneSource"), a
shareholder can invest in over 200 mutual funds from many fund companies,
subject to the following. If a shareholder makes five or more short-term
redemptions of OneSource mutual funds (other than the SchwabFunds) within any
12-month period, a fee will be charged on all future trades. A short-term
redemption in this context refers to the sale of mutual fund shares held for
six months or less. Some mutual funds available through OneSource may charge
fees permitted under Rule 12b-1 in excess of one quarter of one percent per
year. Schwab reserves the right to modify OneSource's terms and conditions at
any time. For more information, a shareholder should contact their Schwab
office during its regular business hours or 800-2 NO-LOAD, 24 hours a day.
From time to time, the Funds may include discussions in advertisements
of the income tax savings shareholders may experience as a result of their
policy of limiting portfolio trading in order to reduce capital gains. This
information may be supplemented by presentations of statistical data
illustrating the extent of such income tax savings and the impact of such
savings on the yield and/or total return of the Funds. In addition, such
advertisements may include comparisons of the Funds' performance against that
of investment products that do not employ the Funds' policy of seeking to limit
capital gains. The Funds are intended to make indexed investing easily
available to Schwab customers with the highest level of convenience and economy
thereby facilitating their ability to participate in the long-term performance
of the United States stock market.

OTHER INFORMATION
From time to time, the International Index Fund and the Small-Cap Index
Fund may compare the historical performance of the Schwab International
Index(TM) and the Schwab Small-Cap Index(TM), respectively, to the historical
performance of various other indices, including the S&P 500, as reported by
independent sources.
Each Fund is managed to offset capital gains with capital losses in
order to minimize that Fund's capital gains tax liability. This special
feature can make a real difference in an investor's after-tax return,
especially if the investor is in a high tax bracket. In addition, each Fund
has adopted a number of policies that should cause its portfolio turnover rate
to be below the portfolio turnover rate of many other mutual funds. A lower
portfolio turnover rate acts to minimize associated transaction costs as well
as the level of realized capital gains. By avoiding, where possible, the
distribution of capital gains to shareholders, the Funds help to build the
value of a shareholders shares and defer payment of capital gains taxes until
shares are redeemed. A shareholder's current tax liability for capital gains
should be reduced and the shareholder's total return increased by these
policies.
Each Fund may, from time to time, refer to recent studies that analyze
certain techniques and strategies which either Fund may use. In addition, each
Fund may, from time to time, promote the advantages of investing in a series
that is part of a large, diverse mutual fund complex.
From time to time, either Fund may include discussions in
advertisements of the income tax savings shareholders may experience as a
result of that Fund's policy of limiting portfolio trading in order to reduce
capital gains. This information may be supplemented by presentations of
statistical data illustrating the extent of such income tax savings and the
impact of such savings on the yield and/or total return of either Fund. In
addition, such advertisements may include comparisons of each Fund's
performance against that of investment products that do not employ each Fund's
policy of seeking to limit capital gains.
GENERAL INFORMATION
The Trust is generally not required to hold shareholder meetings.
However, as provided in its Agreement and Declaration of Trust and Bylaws,
shareholder meetings will be held in connection with the following matters: (1)
election or removal of trustees if a meeting is requested in writing by a
shareholder or shareholders who beneficially own(s) 10% or more of the Trust's
shares; (2) adoption of any contract for which shareholder approval is required
by the 1940 Act; (3) any termination of the Trust to the extent and as provided
in the Declaration of Trust; (4) any amendment of the Declaration of Trust
(other than amendments changing the name of the Trust or any of its investment
portfolios, supplying any omission, curing any ambiguity or curing, correcting
or supplementing any defective or inconsistent provision thereof); (5)
determining whether a court action, proceeding or claim should or should not be
brought or maintained derivatively or as a class action on behalf of the Trust
or the shareholders, to the same extent as the stockholders of a Massachusetts
business corporation; and (6) such additional
48
<PAGE> 68
matters as may be required by law, the Declaration of Trust, the Bylaws or any
registration of the Trust with the SEC or any state or as the Board of Trustees
may consider desirable. The shareholders also would vote upon changes to a
Fund's fundamental investment objective, policies or restrictions.
Each Trustee serves until the next meeting of shareholders, if any,
called for the purpose of electing trustees and until the election and
qualification of his or her successor or until death, resignation, retirement
or removal by a majority vote of the shares entitled to vote (as described
below) or of a majority of the Trustees. In accordance with the 1940 Act (i)
the Trust will hold a shareholder meeting for the election of trustees when
less than a majority of the trustees have been elected by shareholders, and
(ii) if, as a result of a vacancy in the Board of Trustees, less than
two-thirds of the trustees have been elected by the shareholders, that vacancy
will be filled by a vote of the shareholders.
Upon the written request of 10 or more shareholders who have been such
for at least six months and who hold shares constituting at least 1% of the
Trust's outstanding shares stating that they wish to communicate with the other
shareholders for the purpose of obtaining signatures necessary to demand a
meeting to consider removal of one or more trustees, the Trust has undertaken
to disseminate appropriate materials at the expense of the requesting
shareholders.
The Bylaws provide that the presence at a shareholder meeting in
person or by proxy of at least 30% of the shares entitled to vote on a matter
shall constitute a quorum, unless otherwise provided by the 1940 Act or other
applicable law. Thus, even if less than a majority of shareholders were
represented, a meeting of the Trust's shareholders could occur. Attending
shareholders would in such case be permitted to take action not requiring the
vote of more than a majority of a quorum. Some matters requiring a larger vote
under the Declaration of Trust, such as termination or reorganization of the
Trust, and certain amendments of the Declaration of Trust, could not be decided
at such a meeting, nor could matters which under the 1940 Act require the vote
of a "majority of the outstanding voting securities," as defined in the 1940
Act. The Declaration of Trust specifically authorizes the Board of Trustees to
terminate the Trust (or any of its investment portfolios) by notice to the
shareholders without shareholder approval.
Under Massachusetts law, shareholders of a Massachusetts business
trust could, under certain circumstances, be held personally liable for the
Trust's obligations. The Declaration of Trust, however, disclaims shareholder
liability for the Trust's acts or obligations and requires that notice of such
disclaimer be given in each agreement, obligation or instrument entered into or
executed by the Trust or the trustees. In addition, the Declaration of Trust
provides for indemnification out of the property of an investment portfolio in
which a shareholder owns or owned shares for all losses and expenses of such
shareholder or former shareholder if he or she is held personally liable for
the obligations of the Trust solely by reason of being or having been a
shareholder. Moreover, the Trust will be covered by insurance which the
trustees consider adequate to cover foreseeable tort claims. Thus, the risk of
a shareholder incurring financial loss on account of shareholder liability is
considered remote, because it is limited to circumstances in which a disclaimer
is inoperative and the Trust itself is unable to meet its obligations.

For further information, please refer to the registration statement
and exhibits for the Trust on file with the SEC in Washington, D.C. and
available upon payment of a copying fee. The statements in the Prospectus and
this Statement of Additional Information concerning the contents of contracts
or other documents, copies of which are filed as exhibits to the registration
statement, are qualified by reference to such contracts or documents.
PURCHASE AND REDEMPTION OF SHARES
Each Fund's minimum initial investment requirement is $1,000 ($500 for
Custodial Accounts, Individual Retirement Accounts and certain other retirement
plans). Subsequent investments of $100 or more may be made. These minimum
investment requirements may be changed at any time and are not applicable to
certain types of investors. The Trust may waive the minimums for purchases by
trustees, directors, officers or employees of the Trust, Schwab, the
Investment Manager, or the Sub-Adviser.
The Trust has made an election with the SEC to pay in cash all
redemptions requested by any shareholder of record limited in amount during any
90-day period to the lesser of $250,000 or 1% of its net assets at the
beginning of such period. This election is irrevocable without the SEC's prior
approval. Redemption requests in excess of the stated limits may be paid, in
whole or in part, in investment securities or in cash, as the Trust's Board of
Trustees may deem advisable; however, payment will be made wholly in cash
unless the Board of Trustees believes that economic or market conditions exist
that would make such a practice detrimental to the best interests of the Fund.
If redemption proceeds are paid in investment securities, such securities will
be valued as set forth in the Prospectus of the Fund affected under "Share
Price Calculation" and a redeeming shareholder would normally incur brokerage
expenses if he or she converted the securities to cash.

SCHWAB INTERNATIONAL INDEX FUND(TM)
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
For the year ended October 31, 1994
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1. DESCRIPTION OF THE FUND
The Schwab International Index Fund (the "Fund") is a series of Schwab Capital
Trust (the "Trust"), an open-end, management investment company organized as a
Massachusetts business trust on May 7, 1993 and registered under the Investment
Company Act of 1940, as amended.
In addition to the Fund, the Trust also offers the Schwab Small-Cap Index
Fund(TM). The assets of each series are segregated and accounted for separately.
The investment objective of the Fund is to attempt to track the price and
dividend performance (total return) of the Schwab International Index(TM), an
index created to represent the performance of common stocks and other equity
securities issued by large, publicly traded companies from countries around the
world with major developed securities markets (excluding the United States and
South Africa).
2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Security valuation -- Investments in securities traded on an exchange are valued
at the last quoted sale price for a given day, or if a sale is not reported for
that day, at the mean between the most recent quoted bid and asked prices.
Unlisted securities for which market quotations are readily available are valued
at the mean between the most recent bid and asked prices. Securities for which
no quotations are readily available are valued at fair value as determined in
good faith by the Fund's sub-advisor pursuant to Board of Trustees guidelines.
Short-term securities with 60 days or less to maturity are stated at amortized
cost, which approximates market value.
Security transactions and investment income -- Security transactions, in the
accompanying financial statements, are accounted for on a trade date basis (date
the order to buy or sell is executed). Dividend income and distributions to
shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date; interest income is recorded
on the accrual basis. Realized gains and losses from security transactions are
determined on an identified cost basis.
Repurchase agreements -- Repurchase agreements are fully collateralized by U.S.
Treasury or Government agency securities. All collateral is held by the Fund's
custodian and is monitored daily to ensure that its market value at least equals
the repurchase price under the agreement.
Foreign currency translation -- The accounting records of the Fund are
maintained in U.S. dollars. Investment securities and all other assets and
liabilities of the Fund denominated in a foreign currency are translated into
U.S. dollars at the exchange rates on October 31. Purchases and sales of
securities, income receipts and expense payments are translated into U.S.
dollars at the exchange rate in effect on the dates of the respective
transactions.
The Fund separates within its statement of operations the portion of realized
and unrealized gains and losses resulting from changes in foreign exchange rates
from that arising from changes in securities' market values.
Forward currency contracts -- A forward currency contract ("Forward") is an
agreement between two parties to buy and sell a currency at a set price on a
future date. The value of the Forward fluctuates with changes in currency
exchange rates. The Forward is marked-to-market daily and the change in value is
recorded by the Fund as an unrealized gain or loss. When the Forward is closed,
the Fund records a realized gain or loss equal to the difference between the
value at the time the

contract was opened and the value at the time the contract was closed. The Fund
engages in Forwards in connection with the purchase and sale of portfolio
securities to minimize the uncertainty of changes in future exchange rates (see
Note 9).
Deferred organization costs -- Costs incurred in connection with the
organization of the Fund, its initial registration with the Securities and
Exchange Commission and with various states are amortized on a straight-line
basis over a five year period from the Fund's commencement of operations.
Expenses -- Expenses arising in connection with the Fund are charged directly to
the Fund. Expenses common to all series of the Trust are allocated to each
series in proportion to their relative net assets.
Federal income taxes -- It is the Fund's policy to meet the requirements of the
Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies and to
distribute substantially all net investment income and realized net capital
gains, if any, to shareholders. Therefore, no federal income tax provision is
required. The Fund is considered a separate entity for tax purposes.
At October 31, 1994, (for financial reporting and federal income tax purposes),
net unrealized gain aggregated $9,907,000, of which $13,741,000 related to
appreciated securities and $3,834,000 related to depreciated securities.
3. TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES
Investment advisory and administration agreement -- The Trust has an investment
advisory and administration agreement with Charles Schwab Investment Management,
Inc. (the "Investment Manager"). For advisory services and facilities furnished,
the Fund pays an annual fee, payable monthly, of .70% of the first $300 million
of average daily net assets and .60% of such assets over $300 million. Under
this agreement, the Fund incurred investment advisory and administration fees of
$862,000 during the year ended October 31, 1994, before the Investment Manager
reduced its fee (see Note 5).
Sub-advisory agreement -- The Investment Manager has a sub-advisory agreement
with Dimensional Fund Advisors Inc. ("Dimensional") to perform day-to-day
portfolio management for the Fund. Dimensional does not receive compensation
directly from the Fund. However, the Investment Manager pays Dimensional an
annual fee, payable monthly, of .15% of the first $300 million of average daily
net assets and .05% of such assets over $300 million.
Transfer agency and shareholder service agreements -- The Trust has transfer
agency and shareholder service agreements with Charles Schwab & Co., Inc.
("Schwab"). For services provided under these agreements, Schwab receives an
annual fee, payable monthly, of .05% of average daily net assets for transfer
agency services and .20% of such assets for shareholder services. For the year
ended October 31, 1994, the Fund incurred transfer agency and shareholder
service fees of $308,000, before Schwab reduced its fees (see Note 5).
Officers and trustees -- During the period, certain officers and trustees of the
Trust were also officers or directors of the Investment Manager, Schwab or
Dimensional. During the year ended October 31, 1994, the Trust made no direct
payments to its officers or trustees who were "interested persons" within the
meaning of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. The Fund incurred

4. BORROWING AGREEMENT
The Trust has an arrangement with State Street Bank and Trust Company, the
Fund's custodian, whereby the Fund may borrow up to $10,000,000, on a temporary
basis, to fund redemptions. Amounts borrowed under this arrangement bear
interest at periodically negotiated rates and may be collateralized by the
assets of the Fund. During the year ended October 31, 1994, no borrowings were
made under this arrangement.
5. EXPENSES REDUCED BY THE INVESTMENT MANAGER AND SCHWAB
The Investment Manager and Schwab reduced a portion of their fees in
order to limit the Fund's ratio of operating expenses to average net
assets. During the year ended October 31, 1994, the total of such fees
reduced by the Investment Manager was $388,000 and the total of such
fees reduced by Schwab was $111,000.
6. INVESTMENT TRANSACTIONS
Purchases and sales of investment securities, other than short-term obligations,
aggregated $36,420,000 and $7,690,000, respectively, during the year ended
October 31, 1994.
7. EARLY WITHDRAWAL FEES PAID TO THE FUND
The Fund assesses a .75% early withdrawal fee on redemption proceeds
attributable to shares purchased and held less than six months. The early
withdrawal fee is retained by the Fund and is treated as a contribution to
capital. For the year ended October 31, 1994, total early withdrawal fees
retained by the Fund amounted to $129,000.
8. COMPOSITION OF NET ASSETS
At October 31, 1994, net assets consisted of:
<TABLE>
<S> <C>

Accumulated undistributed net investment income 1,306,000
Accumulated net realized loss on investments sold
and foreign currency transactions (580,000)
Net unrealized gain on investments 9,907,000
Net unrealized gain on translating assets and liabilities
into the reporting currency 35,000
------------
Total $142,355,000
============
</TABLE>
The Fund adopted Statement of Position 93-2 Determination, Disclosure, and
Financial Statement Presentation of Income, Capital Gain, and Return of Capital
Distributions by Investment Companies, which will generally present
undistributed income and realized gains on a tax basis. As a result of adoption,
certain reclassifications to increase undistributed net investment income and
decrease capital paid in by $26,000 have occurred. These reclassifications have
no impact on the net asset value of the Fund.
At October 31, 1994, the Fund's Statement of Net Assets included liabilities of
$896,000 for securities purchased, $280,000 for Fund shares redeemed, $52,000
for investment advisory and administration fee payable and $25,000 for transfer
agency and shareholder service fees payable.

The Investment Manager and Schwab have reduced a portion of their fees and
absorbed certain expenses in order to limit the Fund's ratio of operating
expenses to average net assets. Had these fees and expenses not been reduced and
absorbed, the ratio of expenses to average net assets for the periods ended
October 31, 1994 and 1993, would have been 1.30% and 2.10%*, respectively, and
the ratio of net investment income to average net assets would have been .74%
and .65%*, respectively.

To the Board of Trustees
and Shareholders of the Schwab International Index Fund(TM)
In our opinion, the accompanying statement of net assets and the related
statements of operations and of changes in net assets present fairly, in all
material respects, the financial position of the Schwab International Index
Fund (one of the series constituting Schwab Capital Trust, hereafter referred
to as the "Trust") at October 31, 1994, the results of its operations and the
changes in its net assets for each of the periods presented, in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles. These financial statements are the
responsibility of the Trust's management; our responsibility is to express an
opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our
audits of these financial statements in accordance with generally accepted
auditing standards which require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of
material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence
supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing
the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management,
and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that
our audits, which included confirmation of securities at October 31, 1994 by
correspondence with the custodian and broker, provide a reasonable basis for
the opinion expressed above.

SCHWAB SMALL-CAP INDEX FUND(TM)
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
For the period December 3, 1993 (commencement of operations) to October 31, 1994
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1. DESCRIPTION OF THE FUND
The Schwab Small-Cap Index Fund (the "Fund") is a series of Schwab Capital Trust
(the "Trust"), an open-end, management investment company organized as a
Massachusetts business trust on May 7, 1993 and registered under the Investment
Company Act of 1940, as amended. The Fund commenced operations on December 3,
1993.
In addition to the Fund, the Trust also offers the Schwab International Index
Fund(TM). The assets of each series are segregated and accounted for separately.
The investment objective of the Fund is to attempt to track the price and
dividend performance (total return) of the Schwab Small-Cap Index(TM), an index
created to represent the performance of the second 1,000 largest publicly traded
common stocks issued by United States companies.
2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Security valuation -- Investments in securities traded on an exchange are valued
at the last quoted sale price for a given day, or if a sale is not reported for
that day, at the mean between the most recent quoted bid and asked prices.
Unlisted securities for which market quotations are readily available are valued
at the mean between the most recent bid and asked prices. Securities for which
no quotations are readily available are valued at fair value as determined in
good faith by the Fund's sub-advisor pursuant to Board of Trustees guidelines.
Short-term securities with 60 days or less to maturity are stated at amortized
cost, which approximates market value.
Security transactions and investment income -- Security transactions, in the
accompanying financial statements, are accounted for on a trade date basis (date
the order to buy or sell is executed). Dividend income and distributions to
shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date; interest income is recorded
on the accrual basis. Realized gains and losses from security transactions are
determined on an identified cost basis.
Repurchase agreements -- Repurchase agreements are fully collateralized by U.S.
Treasury or Government agency securities. All collateral is held by the Fund's
custodian and is monitored daily to ensure that its market value at least equals
the repurchase price under the agreement.
Deferred organization costs -- Costs incurred in connection with the
organization of the Fund, its initial registration with the Securities and
Exchange Commission and with various states are amortized on a straight-line
basis over a five year period from the Fund's commencement of operations.
Expenses -- Expenses arising in connection with the Fund are charged directly to
the Fund. Expenses common to all series of the Trust are allocated to each
series in proportion to their relative net assets.
Federal income taxes -- It is the Fund's policy to meet the requirements of the
Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies and to
distribute substantially all net investment income and realized net capital
gains, if any, to shareholders. Therefore, no federal income tax provision is
required. The Fund is considered a separate entity for tax purposes.

- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
At October 31, 1994, (for financial reporting and federal income tax purposes),
net unrealized appreciation aggregated $597,392 of which $7,021,886 related to
appreciated securities and $6,424,494 related to depreciated securities.
3. TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES
Investment advisory and administration agreement -- The Trust has an investment
advisory and administration agreement with Charles Schwab Investment Management,
Inc. (the "Investment Manager"). For advisory services and facilities furnished,
the Fund pays an annual fee, payable monthly, of .50% of the first $300 million
of average daily net assets and .45% of such assets over $300 million. Under
this agreement, the Fund incurred investment advisory and administration fees of
$258,394 during the period from December 3, 1993 (commencement of operations) to
October 31, 1994, before the Investment Manager reduced its fee (see Note 5).
Sub-advisory agreement -- The Investment Manager has a sub-advisory agreement
with Dimensional Fund Advisors Inc. ("Dimensional") to perform day-to-day
portfolio management for the Fund. Dimensional does not receive compensation
directly from the Fund. However, the Investment Manager pays Dimensional an
annual fee, payable monthly, of .10% of the first $300 million of average daily
net assets and .05% of such assets over $300 million.
Transfer agency and shareholder service agreements -- The Trust has transfer
agency and shareholder service agreements with Charles Schwab & Co., Inc.
("Schwab"). For services provided under these agreements, Schwab receives an
annual fee, payable monthly, of .05% of average daily net assets for transfer
agency services and .20% of such assets for shareholder services. For the period
from December 3, 1993 (commencement of operations) to October 31, 1994, the Fund
incurred transfer agency and shareholder service fees of $129,197, before Schwab
reduced its fees (see Note 5).
Officers and trustees -- During the period, certain officers and trustees of the
Trust were also officers or directors of the Investment Manager, Schwab or
Dimensional. During the period ended October 31, 1994, the Trust made no direct
payments to its officers or trustees who were "interested persons" within the
meaning of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. The Fund incurred
fees of $18,495 related to the Trust's unaffiliated trustees.
4. BORROWING AGREEMENT
The Trust has an arrangement with State Street Bank and Trust Company, the
Fund's custodian, whereby the Fund may borrow up to $10,000,000, on a temporary
basis, to fund redemptions. Amounts borrowed under this arrangement bear
interest at periodically negotiated rates and may be collateralized by the
assets of the Fund. During the period December 3, 1993 (commencement of
operations) to October 31, 1994, no borrowings were made under this arrangement.

5. EXPENSES REDUCED AND ABSORBED BY THE INVESTMENT MANAGER AND SCHWAB
The Investment Manager and Schwab reduced a portion of their fees and absorbed
certain expenses in order to limit the Fund's ratio of operating expenses to
average net assets. For the period from December 3, 1993 (commencement of

absorbed by the Investment Manager was $153,640 and the total of such fees

aggregated $73,792,447 and $8,478,561, respectively, for the period from
December 3, 1993 (commencement of operations) to October 31, 1994.
7. EARLY WITHDRAWAL FEES PAID TO THE FUND
The Fund assesses a .50% early withdrawal fee on redemption proceeds
attributable to shares purchased and held less than six months. The early
withdrawal fee is retained by the Fund and is treated as a contribution to
capital. For the period from December 3, 1993 (commencement of operations) to
October 31, 1994, total early withdrawal fees retained by the Fund amounted to
$27,385.
8. COMPOSITION OF NET ASSETS

The Investment Manager and Schwab have reduced a portion of their fees and
absorbed certain expenses in order to limit the Fund's ratio of operating
expenses to average net assets. Had these fees and expenses not been reduced and
absorbed, the ratio of expenses to average net assets for the period ended
October 31, 1994, would have been 1.19%*, and the ratio of net investment income
to average net assets would have been .16%*.

To the Board of Trustees
and Shareholders of the Schwab Small-Cap Index Fund(TM)
In our opinion, the accompanying statement of net assets and the related
statements of operations and of changes in net assets present fairly, in all
material respects, the financial position of the Schwab Small-Cap Index Fund(TM)
(one of the series constituting Schwab Capital Trust, hereafter referred to as
the "Trust") at October 31, 1994, the results of its operations and the changes
in its net assets for the period presented, in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles. These financial statements are the
responsibility of the Trust's management; our responsibility is to express an
opinion on these financial statements based on our audit. We conducted our audit
of these financial statements in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards which require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable
assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material
misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting
the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the
accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and
evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our
audit, which included confirmation of securities at October 31, 1994 by
correspondence with the custodian, provides a reasonable basis for the opinion
expressed above.

result, The Charles Schwab Family of Funds, Schwab Investments, Schwab Annuity

Item 27. Indemnification.
Article VIII of Registrant's Agreement and Declaration of Trust (Exhibit
(1) hereto, which is incorporated herein by reference) provides in effect that
Registrant will indemnify its officers and trustees against all liabilities and
expenses, including but not limited to amounts paid in satisfaction of
judgments, in compromise, or as fines and penalties, and counsel fees
reasonably incurred by any such officer or trustee in connection with the
defense or disposition of any action, suit, or other proceeding. However, in
accordance with Section 17(h) and 17(i) of the 1940 Act and its own terms, said
Agreement and Declaration of Trust does not protect any person against any
liability to Registrant or its shareholders to which he or she would otherwise
be subject by reason of willful misfeasance, bad faith, gross negligence, or
reckless disregard of the duties involved in the conduct of his or her office.
In any event, Registrant will comply with 1940 Act Releases No. 7221 and 11330
respecting the permissible boundaries of indemnification by an investment
company of its officers and trustees.
Insofar as indemnification for liability arising under the Securities
Act of 1933, as amended (the "1933 Act"), may be permitted to trustees,
officers, and controlling persons of the Registrant pursuant to the foregoing
provisions, or otherwise, Registrant has been advised that, in the opinion of
the Securities and Exchange Commission, such indemnification is against public
policy as expressed in the 1933 Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the
event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the
payment by Registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a trustee, officer or
controlling person of Registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit
or proceeding) is asserted by such trustee, officer or controlling person in
connection with the securities being registered, Registrant will, unless in the
opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent,
submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such
indemnification by it
C-5
<PAGE> 127
is against public policy as expressed in the 1933 Act and will be governed by
the final adjudication of such issue.
Item 28. Business and Other Connections of Investment Manager.

Registrant's Investment Manager is hereby incorporated by reference to the
Prospectus section captioned "Management of the Fund" and to the section of the

with respect to the implementation of such program.

services as it uses in providing
-2-
<PAGE> 4
services to fiduciary accounts for which it has investment
responsibilities;
(b) will conform with all applicable rules and
regulations of the SEC pertaining to its investment advisory
activities;
(c) will report regularly to Schwab and to the Board of
Trustees and will make appropriate persons available for the purpose
of reviewing with representatives of Schwab and the Board of Trustees
on a regular basis at reasonable times the management of the Funds,
including, without limitation, review of the general investment
strategy of the Funds, the performance of the Funds in relation to
standard industry indices, interest rate considerations and general
conditions affecting the marketplace and will provide various other
reports from time to time as reasonably requested by Schwab;
(d) will maintain books and records with respect to
Trust's securities transactions and will furnish Schwab and Trust's
Board of Trustees such periodic and/or special reports as the Board or

to and approval in writing by Trust, which approval shall not be

may be exposed to civil or criminal contempt proceedings for failure
to comply, when requested to divulge such information by duly
constituted authorities, or when so requested by Trust;

fiduciary duties hereunder.

Rule 31a-3 under the 1940 Act, the Sub-Adviser hereby agrees that all records
which it maintains for the Trust are the property of the Trust and further
agrees to surrender promptly to the Trust any of such records upon the Trust's
request. Sub-Adviser further agrees to maintain the records required to be
maintained by subsections (b)(1), (b)(5), (b)(9), (b)(10), (b)(11), (e) and (f)
of Rule 31a-1 under the 1940 Act and preserve them for the periods prescribed
by Rule 31a-2 under the 1940 Act.
5. Expenses. During the term of this Agreement, Sub-Adviser will
pay all expenses incurred by it in connection with its activities under this
Agreement other than the cost of securities (including brokerage commissions
and stamp duties, if any) purchased for the Funds.
6. Compensation. For the services provided and the expenses
assumed pursuant to this Agreement, Schwab will pay the Sub-Adviser, and the
Sub-Adviser agrees to accept as full compensation therefor, a sub-advisory fee,
accrued daily and payable monthly, in accordance with Schedule B hereto. From
time to time, the Sub-Adviser may agree to waive or reduce some or all of the
compensation to which it is entitled under this Agreement.
7. Services to Others. Schwab understands, and has advised
Trust's Board of Trustees, that the Sub-Adviser now acts, and may in the future
act, as an investment adviser to fiduciary and other managed accounts, and as
investment adviser, sub- investment adviser, and/or administrator to other
investment companies. Schwab has no objection to the Sub-Adviser's acts in
such capacities, provided that whenever one or more of the Funds and one or
more other investment companies or accounts advised by Sub-Adviser have
available funds for investment, investments suitable and appropriate for each
will be allocated in accordance with a manner believed by the Sub-Adviser to be
equitable to each company. Schwab recognizes, and has advised Trust's Board of
Trustees, that in some cases this procedure may adversely affect the size of
the position that the participating Fund(s) may obtain in a particular
security. In addition, Schwab understands, and has advised Trust's Board of
Trustees, that the persons employed by the Sub-Adviser to assist in the
Sub-Adviser's duties under this Agreement will not devote their full time to
such service and nothing contained in this Agreement will be deemed to limit or
restrict the right of the Sub-Adviser or any of its affiliates to engage in and
devote time and
-4-
<PAGE> 6
attention to other businesses or to render services of whatever kind or nature.
8. Limitation of Liability. Schwab will not take any action
against the Sub-Adviser to hold the Sub-Adviser liable for any error of
judgment or mistake of law or for any loss suffered by the Fund in connection
with the performance of the Sub-Adviser's duties under this Agreement, except a
loss resulting from the Sub-Adviser's willful misfeasance, bad faith, or gross
negligence in the performance of its duties under this Agreement.
9. Indemnification. Schwab and the Sub-Adviser each agree to
indemnify the other against any claim against, loss or liability to such other
party (including reasonable attorneys' fees) arising out of any action on the
part of the indemnifying party which constitutes willful misfeasance, bad faith
or gross negligence.
10. Duration and Termination. This Agreement will become
effective as to each Fund as of the date set forth opposite each Fund's name on
Schedule A, provided that it has been approved by a vote of a majority of the
outstanding voting securities of such Fund in accordance with the requirements
under the 1940 Act and, unless sooner terminated as provided herein, will
continue in effect for two years from such date.
Thereafter, if not terminated as to a Fund, this Agreement
will continue in effect as to a Fund for successive periods of 12 months,
provided that such continuation is specifically approved at least annually (a)
by the vote of a majority of those members of the Trust's Board of Trustees who
are not interested persons of the Trust, the Sub-Adviser, or Schwab, cast in
person at a meeting called for the purpose of voting on such approval, and (b)
by the Trust's Board of Trustees or by vote of a majority of the outstanding
voting securities of such Fund. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Agreement
may be terminated as to the Fund at any time, without the payment of any
penalty, on sixty days' written notice by the Trust or by Schwab or on ninety
days' written notice by the Sub-Adviser. This Agreement will immediately
terminate in the event of its assignment. (As used in this Agreement, the
terms "majority of the outstanding voting securities", "interested persons" and
"assignment" have the same meaning of such terms in the 1940 Act.)
11. Amendment of this Agreement. No provision of this Agreement
may be changed, waived, discharged or terminated orally, but only by an
instrument in writing
-5-
<PAGE> 7
signed by the party against which enforcement of the change, waiver, discharge
or termination is sought.
12. Miscellaneous. The captions in this Agreement are included
for convenience of reference only and in no way define or delimit any of the
provisions hereof or otherwise affect their construction or effect. If any
provision of this Agreement is held or made invalid by a court decision,
statute, rule or otherwise, the remainder of this Agreement will not be
affected thereby. This Agreement will be binding upon and shall inure to the
benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and will be
