WT SHORT/INTERMEDIATE BOND PORTFOLIO
October 11, 1999
Dear Shareholders:
We recently mailed to you a proxy statement dated September
17, 1999 (the "Proxy Statement"), for special meetings of the shareholders of WT
Money Market Portfolio, WT Short/Intermediate Bond Portfolio (the "Bond
Portfolio") and WT Broad Market Equity Portfolio.
Proposal No. 1 in the Proxy Statement asks shareholders of the
Bond Portfolio to vote to approve or disapprove a new investment advisory
agreement with Wilmington Trust Company ("WTC") for the Bond Portfolio. The
proxy statement incorrectly states that, under the new investment advisory
agreement, WTC has agreed to continue the advisory fee waiver and assumption of
expenses in order to maintain the current cap on the Bond Portfolio's expenses
(0.50%). UNDER THE PROPOSED INVESTMENT ADVISORY AGREEMENT, WTC HAS AGREED TO
WAIVE ITS ADVISORY FEE AND/OR ASSUME THE PORTFOLIO'S EXPENSES IN ORDER TO LIMIT
THE BOND PORTFOLIO'S TOTAL ANNUAL OPERATING EXPENSES TO 0.55% OF THE PORTFOLIO'S
AVERAGE NET ASSETS, AS OPPOSED TO ITS CURRENT CAP OF 0.50%.
Sincerely,
Gary M. Gardner
Secretary
