Mutual Fund Trust
Supplement Dated April 1, 1996 to
Prospectus dated: December 31, 1995
The discussion under "Management of the Fund - Adviser" is hereby supplemented
by the following:
On March 31, 1996, The Chase Manhattan Corporation and Chemical Banking
Corporation effected the Holding Company Merger. As required by the Investment
Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "1940 Act"), the current advisory agreement
(the "Current Agreement") between the Fund and the Adviser provides for its
automatic termination upon its "assignment" (as defined in the 1940 Act).
Consummation of the Holding Company Merger may be deemed to result in an
assignment of each Current Agreement and, consequently, to terminate each
Current Agreement in accordance with its terms. The Adviser continues to render
services to the Fund under exemptive relief from the Securities and Exchange
Commission and services will not be impaired as a result of the Holding Company
Merger. Shareholder approval of new advisory agreements is presently being
solicited and a Special Meeting will be held on April 2, 1996 to consider
approval of the new advisory agreements.
