Federal Securities Income Fund
On April 28, 1999, the Board of Directors approved on behalf of Federal
Securities Income Fund a change in the Fund's name to Centura Government Income
Fund. No changes are being made to the Fund's investment policies or its
investment objective as a result of the name change which takes effect
immediately.
Southeast Equity Fund
On April 28, 1999, the Board of Directors approved on behalf of the Southeast
Equity Fund (1) a change in the Fund's name to Centura Small Cap Equity Fund and
(2) a change in the Fund's non fundamental primary investment policy which is
restated as follows:
Under normal conditions, the Fund will invest at least 65% of its total
assets in equity securities of small companies. Small Companies are
defined as those with market capitalizations that fall within the range
of the companies in the S&P 600 Small Cap Index. As of December 31,
1998, the companies in the S&P 600 Small Cap Index had an average
market capitalization of $580 million.
The Fund's Adviser believes such changes will afford the Fund greater latitude
in stock selection over time. No change is being made to the Fund's investment
objective as a result of these policy and name changes.
