                                THE UNIFIED FUNDS
                            SUPPLEMENT TO PROSPECTUS
                             DATED FEBRUARY 1, 2000


Asset Allocation Fund

         The Board of Trustees has determined to redeem all  outstanding  shares
of The Asset  Allocation Fund. Since the Fund's  inception,  Unified  Investment
Advisers, Inc., the Fund's Adviser, has been subsidizing the Fund by reimbursing
a significant  portion of its  expenses.  Because the Fund has lagged far behind
the Adviser's asset  projections,  the Adviser is no longer willing to subsidize
the Fund.

         The Fund is no longer pursuing its investment  objective.  All holdings
in the Fund's  portfolio  have been sold, and the proceeds have been invested in
money market  instruments of the types described under "Investment  Objective --
The Taxable  Money Market  Fund" in the  Prospectus.  Any capital  gains will be
distributed as soon as practicable to shareholders  and reinvested in additional
shares,  unless you have requested  payment in cash. Prior to September 25, 2000
you may redeem your account,  including reinvested distributions,  in accordance
with "How to Redeem Shares" in the Prospectus;  or, if you desire to ensure that
the  proceeds  from your shares are  reinvested  without  interruption,  you may
request an exchange for any other Unified Fund (see "How to Exchange  Shares" in
the  Prospectus).  Please call the  Transfer  Agent at  1-800-408-4682  for more
information.
