FUND GOAL, PRINCIPAL STRATEGIES, PERFORMANCE AND PRINCIPAL RISK
- -----------------------------------------------------------------------------

GOAL The Weiss  Millennium  Opportunity  Fund seeks  capital  appreciation.  The
Fund's investment objective may be changed without shareholder approval.


PRINCIPAL   STRATEGIES   In  seeking  its   investment   objective   of  capital
appreciation,   the  Fund  will  invest  primarily  in  a  portfolio  of  equity
securities,  such as  common  stocks,  and will  engage  in short  sales of such
securities.  Although  equity  securities are the primary focus of the Fund, the
Manager  intends  to  purchase   investment-grade  fixed  income  securities  in
attempting to achieve the Fund's  objective.  Under normal  circumstances  it is
expected  that  approximately  20% of the Fund's assets will be invested in such
securities.  The Fund's investment manager, Weiss Money Management,  Inc. (which
we refer to as "Weiss" or the "Manager"), will use both fundamental analysis and
proprietary  computer models to identify those securities to be purchased,  sold
or sold short. Under normal conditions, the Fund will invest at least 65% of its
assets in long and/or short equity positions.

The Fund employs a long-short approach.  With this approach,  the Fund will seek
to purchase stocks of companies that, in the Manager's opinion,  have (1) strong
or improving  fundamentals,  (2) lower  vulnerability to adverse factors such as
Year 2000 ("Y2K") related  problems or deflation,  and/or (3) operate in sectors
of the market that show accelerating  momentum and strong relative strength.  At
the same  time,  the Fund will seek to sell short  stocks of  issuers  which the
Manager  believes  have  (1) weak or  deteriorating  fundamentals,  (2)  greater
vulnerability  to adverse  factors,  and/or (3) operate in sectors of the market
that show decelerating momentum and weak relative strength. Although the Manager
expects that the Fund's  "long" equity  positions  will  generally  outweigh its
"short" equity positions, the Fund is not restricted in the amount of its assets
that it may commit to short sales.


The investment  policies of the Fund may lead to frequent  changes in the Fund's
investments,  particularly in periods of volatile market movements.  A change in
the securities held by the Fund is known as "portfolio  turnover."  Although the
rate of portfolio turnover is difficult to predict, it is anticipated that under
normal  circumstances  the Fund's  portfolio  turnover  rate could reach 400% or
more.

PRINCIPAL  RISKS There are market and  investment  risks with any security.  The
value of an investment in the Fund will  fluctuate  over time and it is possible
to lose money invested in the Fund.


o    Stock Market Stock market movements will affect the Fund's share price on a
     daily basis. The Fund's  portfolio  securities could lose value as a result
     of a decline in the overall stock market.  When the Fund purchases a stock,
     it is said to have a "long" position in that stock. Selling a stock "short"
     means  that the Fund has sold a stock it does not own with the  expectation
     that it will be able to buy the  stock  later at a lower  price in order to
     close the  transaction  and  realize a gain on the  difference  between the
     respective sale and purchase  prices.  The Fund's  investment  results will
     suffer if there is a stock  market  advance  when the Fund has  significant
     "short"  equity  positions,  or if there is a stock market decline when the
     Fund has a significant "long" equity position.


o    Equity Investing An investment in the common stock of a company  represents
     a proportionate  ownership  interest in that company.  Therefore,  the Fund
     participates  in the  success or  failure of any  company in which it holds
     stock.  In  addition,  the  market  value of common  stocks  can  fluctuate
     significantly.


o    Short  Investing If the Fund's Manager takes short positions in stocks that
     increase  in value,  then the losses of the Fund may exceed  those of other
     stock mutual  funds that hold long  positions  only.  Since the Fund is not
     restricted  in the  amount of its  assets  that may be  allocated  to short
     sales,  significant  short equity  positions could increase the Fund's risk
     profile.  Investment  in shares of the Fund is more volatile and risky than
     many other mutual funds or other forms of investment.


o    Portfolio Strategy The Manager's skill in choosing appropriate  investments
     for the Fund will determine in large part the Fund's ability to achieve its
     investment  objective.  The risk exists  that the  Manager may  incorrectly
     allocate the Fund's investments between long and short equity positions.


o    Debt Securities  Investing in debt  securities  involves both interest rate
     and  credit  risk.  The value of debt  instruments  generally  increase  as
     interest rates decline. In addition, the risk of prepayment could adversely
     impact the Fund during a period of falling interest rates as the Fund would
     be required to invest the proceeds from such  investments at lower interest
     rates.  Conversely,  rising  interest rates tend to cause the value of debt
     securities to decrease.  The market value of debt  securities also tends to
     vary according to the relative financial condition of the issuer.


o    Portfolio  Turnover  Portfolio  turnover generally involves some expense to
     the Fund,  including  brokerage  commissions  or dealer  mark-ups and other
     transaction  costs  on the sale of  securities  and  reinvestment  in other
     securities.  Such sales may result in realization of taxable capital gains.
     A high portfolio  turnover will result in higher brokerage costs and taxes,
     which will affect the Fund's performance.

PERFORMANCE Since this is a new fund, no past performance data are available.

- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------

(as a percentage of offering price)
Redemption Fee (2)                                                 None
(as a percentage of amount redeemed)
Exchange Fee                                                       $5.00

(2)  A $15 service fee may be charged for redemptions by wire.


ANNUAL FUND OPERATING EXPENSES (Expenses that are deducted from Fund assets)


Management Fee:                                          1.50%


Other Expenses:*                                         0.55%

Total Annual Fund Operating Expenses:                    2.05%


* "Other Expenses" are based on estimated amounts for the current fiscal year.

EXAMPLE:


This  example is intended to help you compare the cost of  investing in the Fund
with the cost of investing in other mutual Funds.  The example  assumes that you
invest $10,000 in the Fund for the periods indicated and then redeem all of your
shares  at the  end of  those  periods.  The  example  also  assumes  that  your
investment has a 5% return each year, that the Fund's operating  expenses remain
the same, and that dividends and  distributions  are  reinvested.  Although your
actual costs may be higher or lower than those in this  example,  based on these
assumptions your cost would be:

1 YEAR                   $281
3 YEARS                  $713

MORE INFORMATION ABOUT THE FUND'S PRINCIPAL STRATEGIES AND RISKS
- ---------------------------------------------------------------------------

PRINCIPAL STRATEGIES:


The Manager uses a variety of investments  and investment  techniques in seeking
to achieve  the Fund's  investment  objective.  The  Fund's  primary  investment
strategies  are  described  below;  however,  the Fund may also  invest in other
securities,  use other strategies or engage in other investment practices. These
investments and strategies,  as well as those described in this prospectus,  are
described in detail in the  Statement of  Additional  Information.  Although the
Fund will attempt to achieve its investment objective,  there is no assurance it
will be successful.



The following describes the Manager's investment approach in greater detail.

Analysis:

o    Fundamental analysis: Companies are evaluated for their fundamental ability
     to withstand, or even take advantage of, adverse economic conditions,  such
     as the Y2K computer problem (considered paramount factors in the years 1999
     and 2000) as well as global deflation or a domestic recession. Factors such
     as cash  flow,  asset  values,  competitive  position,  current  price  and
     industry  outlook may also be  considered.  A Strongest  List and a Weakest
     List are produced based on this analysis.

o    Sector  analysis:  A proprietary  computer model  evaluates  various market
     sectors to aid the  Manager  in  selecting  for  purchase  securities  from
     sectors of the economy that are showing  strength or,  conversely,  selling
     securities short in sectors that are showing weakness.

o    Market trend analysis:  Based on a proprietary model, a bullish (indicating
     a rising  market)  or  bearish  (indicating  a  falling  market)  signal is
     generated.

Security Selection:


Based upon the results of both the  fundamental  and sector  analyses  discussed
above:


o A Buy Candidates List is created containing stocks in sectors ranked high.

o A Short-Sale Candidates List is created with stocks in sectors ranked low.

Portfolio Structure:

The Fund's assets will normally be invested as set forth below. Depending on the
Manager's  perception  of  market  conditions,   these  percentages  may  differ
substantially at various times.


o    Approximately  30% of the Fund's assets will be allocated to core positions
     (positions the Manager intends to hold for a while). The Manager intends to
     split  these  between  (a)  long  positions  in  stocks  selected  from the
     Strongest List and (b) short  positions in stocks selected from the Weakest
     List.

o    Approximately  50% of the Fund's  assets will  consist of  actively  traded
     equity  positions  which will be  allocated  based  upon the  market  trend
     analysis discussed above. In a bullish market trend, trading positions will
     be primarily  allocated to long  positions in stocks  selected from the Buy
     Candidates  List. In a bearish market trend,  this portion of the portfolio
     will consist  primarily of short equity  positions in stocks  selected from
     the Short-Sale Candidates List.

o    Approximately  20% of the Fund's assets will be invested in debt securities
     issued or guaranteed by the United  States  government  and its agencies or
     instrumentalities,  debt securities of investment  grade corporate  issuers
     and zero coupon  bonds.  If a debt  security  held by the Fund ceases to be
     rated or its rating is reduced below  investment-grade,  the Fund's Manager
     will review the investment in light of the Fund's investment  philosophy to
     determine  whether  or not  selling  the  security  would  be in  the  best
     interests of the Fund.


RISKS:

EQUITY  SECURITIES Since it purchases common stocks (referred to above as taking
a "long"  equity  position),  the Fund is subject to the risk that stock  prices
will fall over  short or  extended  periods  of time.  Historically,  the equity
markets have moved in cycles,  and the value of the Fund's equity securities may
fluctuate  drastically  from day to day.  Individual  companies  may report poor
results  or be  negatively  affected  by  industry  and/or  economic  trends and
developments.  The prices of  securities  issued by such  companies may suffer a
decline in response. These factors contribute to price volatility.

SHORT  SALES When the  Manager  anticipates  that the price of a  security  will
decline,  it may sell the  security  short and borrow the same  security  from a
broker or other  institution to complete the sale (referred to above as taking a
"short" equity  position).  The Fund may make a profit or incur a loss depending
upon whether the market price of the security decreases or increases between the
date of the short sale and the date on which the Fund must  replace the borrowed
security. An increase in the value of a security sold short by the Fund over the
price at which it was sold  short will  result in a loss to the Fund,  and there
can be no  assurance  that the Fund will be able to close out the  position at a
particular time or at an acceptable price.

FIXED INCOME SECURITIES The market values of fixed income  investments change in
response to interest rate changes and other  factors.  During periods of falling
interest  rates,  the values of outstanding  fixed income  securities  generally
rise.  Further,  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.  In addition to
these  fundamental  risks,  different  types of fixed income  securities  may be
subject to the following additional risks:

o    Credit Quality Risk - The possibility that an issuer will be unable to make
     timely payments of either principal or interest.

o    Prepayment or Call Risk - During periods of falling interest rates, certain
     debt  obligations  with high interest rates may be prepaid (or "called") by
     the issuer  prior to  maturity.  As a result,  the Fund may be  required to
     invest the proceeds from such investments at lower interest rates.


TEMPORARY DEFENSIVE  INVESTMENTS The Fund may, from time to time, take temporary
defensive  positions that are inconsistent with the Fund's principal  investment
strategies in attempting to respond to adverse  market,  economic,  political or
other  conditions.  During  these  times,  the Fund may invest up to 100% of its
assets  in cash or cash  equivalents,  shares  of  money  market  mutual  funds,
commercial paper, zero coupon bonds, repurchase agreements, and other securities
the Manager  believes to be consistent with the Fund's best interests.  During a
period in which the Fund takes a temporary defensive position,  the Fund may not
achieve its investment objective.

NON-PRINCIPAL  INVESTMENT STRATEGIES To a more limited extent, the Fund may, but
is not required to, utilize other investments and investment techniques that may
impact fund  performance,  including,  but not limited to, options on securities
and  stock  indices,  options  on  stock  index  futures  contracts,  and  other
derivatives  (i.e.,  financial  instruments  that derive  their value from other
securities or commodities, or that are based on indices).

FUND MANAGEMENT
- ------------------------------------------------------

INVESTMENT MANAGER

Weiss Money  Management,  Inc.,  4176 Burns Road,  Palm Beach  Gardens,  Florida
33410,  is the  investment  adviser  to the  Fund,  and is  responsible  for the
day-to-day management of the portfolio.  The Manager has been providing advisory
services to The Weiss Fund  (formerly  known as Weiss  Treasury  Fund) since the
Trust's  commencement of operations in 1996, and to individual clients since its
inception in 1980.

Under the investment  advisory  agreement  with the Fund,  the Manager  provides
continuous advice and  recommendations  concerning the Fund's  investments.  The
Fund has agreed to  compensate  the  Manager  for its  services  by the  monthly
payment of a fee at the annual rate of 1.50% of the Fund's average net assets.

SUB-ADVISER

Harvest Advisors, Inc., 11612 Bee Cave Road, Suite 110, Austin, Texas 78733, has
been retained by the Manager to provide sub-advisory  services to the Fund. Tony
Sagami,  President  of  Harvest  Advisors,  has been  actively  involved  in the
development of sophisticated  investment  software and  quantitative  investment
strategies.  Harvest  Advisors  and/or  its  principals  have been  continuously
serving  institutional and individual  investors since 1993. Under its agreement
with the Manager,  the Sub-Adviser  renders continuous  investment advice to the
Manager with respect to  investment  and  reinvestment  of the Fund's  assets in
various  securities,  based upon computer models  constructed in accordance with
the Fund's  investment  objective and  policies;  however,  the Manager,  in the
exercise of its independent judgment,  retains ultimate discretion regarding and
responsibility  for the implementation of transactions in seeking to achieve the
Fund's  objective.  The Manager pays the Sub-Adviser a fee out of the investment
advisory fees it receives from the Fund.

PORTFOLIO MANAGER


John N. Breazeale.  Mr. Breazeale,  President of Weiss Money  Management,  Inc.,
President  and  Chairman of the Board of Trustees of Weiss Fund,  and  portfolio
manager of the Weiss Treasury Only Money Market Fund, a separate series of Weiss
Fund, is primarily  responsible for implementing the Fund's principal investment
strategy; however, he is assisted by a team of investment professionals from the
Manager and the  Sub-Adviser.  Mr.  Breazeale has been a portfolio  manager with
Weiss since 1994. Prior to 1994, Mr.  Breazeale  provided  portfolio  management
services at Provident  Institutional  Management Inc.,  Mitchell  Hutchins Asset
Management  Inc.  (a  subsidiary  of  PaineWebber  Group),  and  with  Mackenzie
Investment  Management Inc. Mr.  Breazeale has over 28 years'  experience in the
securities industry.



YEAR 2000 READINESS

The  services  provided  to the  Fund by  Weiss  and the  Fund's  other  service
providers are dependent on those service providers'  computer systems.  Computer
software  and  hardware  systems  in use  today  may not be able to  distinguish
between the year 2000 and the year 1900 because of the way dates are encoded and
calculated (the "Year 2000 Problem"). The failure to make this distinction could
have a negative  impact on  handling  securities  trades,  pricing  and  account
services.  Weiss is working with the Fund's other  service  providers to address
the Year 2000  Problem  with  respect  to the  computer  systems  that they use.
Specifically,  Weiss has completed changes to its internal hardware and software
in order to  complete  its Year  2000  readiness.  In  addition,  completed  Y2K
readiness  questionnaires  have been received from all of the financial  vendors
and service providers of the Manager and are currently being evaluated as to the
quality of their Y2K readiness  status.  The Fund  believes  these steps will be
sufficient  to avoid any  material  adverse  impact on the Fund.  At this  time,
however,  there can be no assurance that these steps will be sufficient to avoid
any adverse impact on the Fund.

- ------------------------------------------------------
DIVIDENDS AND DISTRIBUTIONS
- ------------------------------------------------------

The Fund intends to  distribute  to  shareholders  substantially  all of its net
investment  income annually.  Net investment income for the Fund consists of all
income accrued on the Fund's assets,  less all actual and accrued expenses.  The
Fund intends to  distribute  to  shareholders  net realized  capital gains after
utilization of capital loss carryforwards, if any, at least annually.

Distributions  by the Fund are  reinvested in  additional  shares of the Fund or
paid in cash at the  election of the  shareholder.  If no election is made,  all
distributions  will be reinvested in additional Fund shares. If an investment is
in the form of a retirement plan, all dividends and capital gains  distributions
must be reinvested into the shareholder's  account.  Distributions are generally
taxable, whether received in cash or reinvested.
Exchanges among the Weiss funds are also taxable events.

- ------------------------------------------------------
TAXES
- ------------------------------------------------------

Dividends  paid out of the  Fund's  net  investment  income  and net  short-term
capital gains will be taxable to you as ordinary  income.  Distributions  of net
long-term  capital  gains  are  taxable  to  you  as  long-term  capital  gains,
regardless of how long you have held your Fund shares. Distributions are taxable
to you in the same manner  whether  received in cash or reinvested in additional
Fund shares.

If shares of the Fund are held in a tax-deferred retirement plan account, income
and gain will not be taxable each year. Instead,  the taxable portion of amounts
held in a  retirement  plan account  generally  will be subject to tax only when
distributed from that account,  and all of those taxable amounts will be taxable
as ordinary income.

A  distribution  will be treated as paid to you on  December  31 of the  current
calendar  year if it is declared  by the Fund in  October,  November or December
with a record  date in such a month and paid by the Fund  during  January of the
following calendar year.

Each year the Fund will  notify  you of the tax  status of  dividends  and other
distributions.

Upon the sale or other  disposition  of your  Fund  shares,  you may  realize  a
capital gain or loss which will be long-term or short-term,  generally depending
upon how long you held your shares.

The  foregoing  discussion of federal tax  consequences  is intended for general

Since this is a new fund, no financial highlights data are available.

- ------------------------------------------------------
HOW TO INVEST IN THE FUND
- ------------------------------------------------------

BUYING SHARES


Purchase  orders for shares of the Fund which are received by the transfer agent
on any  business  day by the  close of  regular  trading  on the New York  Stock
Exchange, normally 4:00 p.m. eastern time, receive the net asset value per share
next  determined  after  receipt of the order by the  transfer  agent,  less any
applicable  front-end sales charge.  Purchase orders received after the close of
regular  trading  on the  Exchange  receive  the net asset  value per share next
determined after receipt of the order by the transfer agent, less any applicable
front-end  sales  charge.  Federal  funds must be  immediately  available to the
Fund's  custodian in order for the transfer agent to execute a purchase order on
a given day.  Shares of the Fund cannot be purchased by Federal  Reserve wire on
days that either the Exchange or the Federal Reserve is closed.


A  front-end  sales  charge of 1.50% is assessed on  purchases  of Fund  shares,
subject  to a  maximum  of  $75  per  account.  Broker-dealers  other  than  the
distributor  may  assess  additional  transaction  charges  in  connection  with
purchases of Fund shares.

PURCHASES BY CHECK

Fund shares may be  purchased  by a check drawn on an account  belonging  to the
prospective   shareholder.   See  "Opening  an  Account"  for  minimum  purchase
requirements.  If you  purchase  shares  with a check that does not clear,  your
purchase  order will be  canceled  and you will be liable for any losses or fees
the Fund or the transfer  agent  incurred.  Checks must be drawn on a U.S. bank.
Purchases  by check are  executed on the day the check is received in good order
by the transfer agent.  Purchases are made in full and fractional shares. Checks
for investment should be payable to the Fund.

Please see  "Transaction  Information"  later in this  Prospectus for additional
information on buying, redeeming and exchanging Fund shares.

BY WIRE

If you are wiring funds,  please contact a Fund representative at (800) 430-9617
to open an account.

Ask your bank to send immediately available funds by wire to:

         PNC Bank N.A.
         Philadelphia, PA 19103
         ABA No. 031000053
         DDA Account # 86-1030-3574
         Further Credit to: (Shareholder Name and Account Number)

The wire should include your name,  address and taxpayer  identification  number
and the name of the Fund. An account  application  indicating  the name in which
the  purchase is to be made must be  completed  and mailed by you to the address
under  "Opening an  Account--By  Mail" above via  overnight  delivery or sent by
facsimile transmission.  Purchase money will be returned promptly in the event a
completed account  application is not received.  Please call the Fund's transfer
agent at (800) 430-9617 for additional information prior to making a purchase by
wire and consult your bank regarding bank wire or other charges.

FRONT-END SALES CHARGE

The offering  price of the Fund's shares is the net asset value next  determined
after the Fund receives a valid purchase request, plus the front-end sales load.

The amount of the front-end  sales load as a percentage of the offering price is
1.50%,  which  equals  1.52%  of the  net  amount  invested.  Assessment  of the
front-end  sales charge is limited to a maximum of $75 per  account.  Applicable
sales charge  assessments in excess of such amount will be waived.  In addition,
the sales charge is not assessed on (i) Fund shares  purchased  with  reinvested
dividends or  distributions,  (ii)  subsequent  investments  in the Fund,  (iii)
exchanges  from another Weiss fund with the same or a higher sales  charge,  and
(iv)  exchanges  from another Weiss fund whose shares were  purchased  through a
previous exchange from this Fund.

WAIVER OF FRONT-END SALES CHARGE

In addition to the examples discussed in the preceding paragraph,  the front-end
sales charge will be waived on Fund shares purchased:

o    in  connection  with  shares  purchased  through  the  cross   reinvestment
     privilege;

o    by persons  repurchasing  shares they redeemed within the last 30 days (see
     "Repurchase of Fund Shares");

o    by  directors,  officers  and  employees  and  members  of their  immediate
     families of the Manager,  the Sub-Adviser and their  affiliates and dealers
     that enter into agreements with the Fund's distributor;

o    by Trustees and officers of Weiss Fund;

o    through wrap fee and asset allocation  programs and financial  institutions
     that,  under  their  dealer  agreements  with  the  Fund's  distributor  or
     otherwise, do not receive any or receive a reduced portion of the front-end
     sales charge; and

o    by persons  purchasing  shares of the Fund through a payroll deduction plan
     or a qualified  retirement  plan which  permits  purchases of shares of the
     Fund.

Repurchase of Fund Shares

Investors may  repurchase  any amount of Fund shares at net asset value (without
the normal  front-end sales charge),  up to the limit of the value of any amount
of the shares (other than those which were purchased with  reinvested  dividends
and distributions)  that they redeemed within the past 30 days. In effect,  this
allows investors to reacquire  shares that they may have had to redeem,  without
re-paying  the  front-end  sales  charge.  An investor  may only  exercise  this
privilege once. To exercise this  privilege,  we must receive the purchase order
within 30 days of that  investor's  redemption.  In addition,  an investor  must
provide written  notification and indicate on the purchase order that shares are
being repurchased.

cleared, redemption proceeds will be sent within three business days.

Redemptions  in the  amount of  $50,000 or more  require a  Medallion  Signature
Guarantee.  Please  refer  to  "Medallion  Signature  Guarantees"  later in this
Prospectus for more information.

The redemption  requirements  for  corporations,  other  organizations,  trusts,
fiduciaries,  agents,  institutional  investors  and  retirement  plans  may  be

- ---------------------------------------------------------------------
EXCHANGING FUND SHARES
- ---------------------------------------------------------------------

Shareholders of the Fund have an exchange  privilege with other Weiss funds. The
Fund reserves the right to reject any exchange  order.  Shareholders of the Fund
may exchange  their  outstanding  shares for shares of another Weiss fund on the
basis of  relative  net asset  value per share.  Before  exchanging  shares into
another Weiss fund,  please call (800) 430-9617 to obtain the  appropriate  fund
prospectus.

The  exchange  requirements  for  corporations,  other  organizations,   trusts,
fiduciaries,  agents,  institutional  investors  and  retirement  plans  may  be
different from those for regular  accounts.  Please call (800) 430-9617 for more
information.

This exchange  privilege is available only in states where the Fund's shares may
be legally sold.

MINIMUM INVESTMENT

A minimum  initial  investment  must be made to  establish an account into which
exchange proceeds may be invested.  If you are opening an account in a different
Weiss fund by  exchange,  the shares being  exchanged  must be at least equal in
value to the minimum  investment  requirement  for the fund into which  exchange
proceeds are being invested. If shares of a Weiss fund purchased without a sales
charge or with a lower sales charge are  exchanged  for shares of another  Weiss
fund with a sales charge or a higher sales charge, the exchange is subject to an
incremental sales charge (e.g., the difference  between the lower and the higher
applicable sales charges). If Weiss fund shares are exchanged into another Weiss
fund with the same,  lower or no sales  charge,  there is no  incremental  sales
charge for the  exchange.  Finally,  the Fund's  sales charge is not assessed on
exchanges from another Weiss fund whose shares were purchased through a previous
exchange from this Fund. A $5 fee is assessed for each exchange transaction.

BY TELEPHONE

Call (800)  430-9617 and speak with a service  representative  of The Weiss Fund
anytime between 8:30 a.m. and 4:00 p.m.  Transactions by telephone  cannot be in
an  amount  in  excess  of  $50,000.  See  "Transaction   Information--Telephone
Transactions" below.

BY MAIL

Send a letter of  instruction  signed by each owner on the account (sign exactly
as each name appears on the  account) to the address  shown above in "Opening an
Account--By Mail." Please be sure to include in your instructions:

         -- the dollar amount or number of shares you wish to exchange;  -- your
         account number; -- the name of the Fund you are exchanging from; -- the
         name of the Fund you are exchanging  into;  and -- a daytime  telephone
         number at which you can be reached.

- ------------------------------------------------------
TRANSACTION INFORMATION
- ------------------------------------------------------

NET ASSET VALUE

For purposes of processing  purchase and redemption  orders, the net asset value
per share of the Fund is  calculated  as of the close of regular  trading on the
New York Stock Exchange,  normally 4:00 p.m.  eastern time, on each business day
except those holidays which the Exchange observes.

On those days where the  Fund's  custodian  or the  Exchange  closes  early as a
result of such day being a partial  holiday or otherwise,  the Fund reserves the
right to advance on that day the time by which purchase and redemption  requests
must be received.

The  Fund's  administrator  determines  net asset  value per share by adding the
value of the Fund's investments,  cash and other assets, subtracting liabilities
attributable  to the Fund and then  dividing  the result by the number of shares
outstanding. Market prices are used to determine the value of the Fund's assets.
If market  prices are not readily  available  for a security or if a  security's
price is not considered to be market indicative,  that security may be valued by
another  method  that the Fund's  Board of  Trustees  or its  delegate  believes
accurately  reflects fair value. In those circumstances where a security's price
is not considered to be market indicative,  the security's  valuation may differ
from an available market quotation.

TELEPHONE TRANSACTIONS

Shareholders  automatically  receive the Telephone  Transaction  Privilege.  The
Telephone  Transaction  Privilege  allows a shareholder to effect exchanges from
the Fund into an identically registered account in another Weiss fund as well as
other transactions as outlined in this prospectus, by calling (800) 430-9617. If
a  shareholder  does not wish to have  this  privilege,  he or she must  place a
checkmark in the  appropriate  box in the  Telephone  Transaction  Authorization
portion of the account application.

Neither  the  Fund  nor  the  transfer   agent  will  be  liable  for  following
instructions  communicated by telephone  reasonably believed to be genuine and a
loss to the shareholder may result due to an unauthorized transaction.  The Fund
and the transfer agent will employ reasonable  procedures (which may include one
or more of the following:  recording all telephone calls,  requesting  telephone
exchanges or other instructions, verifying authorization and requiring some form
of  personal  identification  prior to acting upon  instructions,  and sending a
statement  each time a  telephone  transaction  is  effected)  to  confirm  that
instructions  communicated  by telephone are genuine.  The Fund and the transfer
agent  may  be  liable  for  any  losses  due  to   unauthorized  or  fraudulent
instructions only if such reasonable procedures are not followed.

Of course,  shareholders  are not  obligated  in any way to execute a  telephone
transaction and may choose to give such instructions in writing.  During periods
of  drastic  economic  or market  changes,  it is  possible  that the  Telephone
Transaction Privilege may be difficult to implement. In this event, shareholders
should follow the other  transaction  procedures  such as those  discussed under
"Exchanging  Shares"  and/or  "Redeeming  Shares,"  including the procedures for
processing exchanges through securities dealers.

MEDALLION SIGNATURE GUARANTEES

Certain  types  of  redemption  requests  must  include  a  Medallion  Signature
Guarantee for each name in which the account is registered.  Medallion Signature
Guarantees  must accompany  redemption  requests for: (i) an amount in excess of
$50,000 per day;  (ii) any amount,  if the  redemption  proceeds  are to be sent
elsewhere than the address of record on the Fund's books;  or (iii) an amount of
$50,000 or less if the  address of record has been  changed on the Fund's  books
for less than 60 days, although the transfer agent reserves the right to require
Medallion  Signature  Guarantees  on  all  redemptions.  A  Medallion  Signature
Guarantee stamp may be obtained from a member of a national securities exchange,
a U.S.  commercial bank, trust company, or Federally chartered savings and loan,
or other  recognized  member of the Medallion  Signature  Guarantee  program.  A
notarization  from a notary public is NOT acceptable.  Guarantees must be signed
by an authorized person at one of these institutions.

TAX IDENTIFICATION NUMBER

When you complete your account application,  please be sure to certify that your
Social  Security  or tax  identification  number is correct and that you are not
subject  to 31% backup  withholding  for  failing  to report  income to the IRS.
Federal tax law requires the Fund to withhold 31% of taxable  distributions from
most accounts without a certified Social Security or tax  identification  number
and certain other certified  information or upon  notification from the IRS or a
broker that  withholding  is  required.  The Fund  reserves  the right to reject
account  applications  without a certified Social Security or tax identification
number and certain other certified information or upon notification from the IRS
or a broker that  withholding  is required.  The Fund also reserves the right to
redeem  shares from  accounts  without such  information  upon 30 days'  notice.
Shareholders   may  avoid   redemption   by  providing   the  Fund  with  a  tax
identification number during the notice period.

SUBMINIMUM ACCOUNTS

The Fund  reserves the right to  involuntarily  redeem an account after 30 days'
written  notice,  if the  account's  net asset value  falls and remains  below a
$2,500 minimum due to share redemptions and not market fluctuations.

SUSPENSION OF TRADING

Purchase  and  redemption  orders may be  suspended on days when the Exchange is
closed,  closes  early  as a result  of such  day  being a  partial  holiday  or
otherwise, when trading is restricted or otherwise as permitted by the SEC.

REDEMPTIONS IN KIND
In  unusual  circumstances,  the Fund may make  payment  in  readily  marketable
portfolio securities at their market value equal to the redemption price.

SHORT-TERM TRADING

The Fund and the transfer agent may restrict  purchase  transactions  (including
exchanges)  when a pattern of frequent  purchases and redemptions in response to
short-term fluctuations in the Fund's share price appears evident.

FUND GOAL, PRINCIPAL STRATEGIES, PERFORMANCE AND PRINCIPAL RISK
- ----------------------------------------------------------------------------

GOAL The Weiss  Millennium  Opportunity  Fund seeks  capital  appreciation.  The
Fund's investment objective may be changed without shareholder approval.


PRINCIPAL   STRATEGIES   In  seeking  its   investment   objective   of  capital
appreciation,   the  Fund  will  invest  primarily  in  a  portfolio  of  equity
securities,  such as  common  stocks,  and will  engage  in short  sales of such
securities.  Although  equity  securities are the primary focus of the Fund, the
Manager  intends  to  purchase   investment-grade  fixed  income  securities  in
attempting to achieve the Fund's  objective.  Under normal  circumstances  it is
expected  that  approximately  20% of the Fund's assets will be invested in such
securities.  The Fund's investment manager, Weiss Money Management,  Inc. (which
we refer to as "Weiss" or the "Manager"), will use both fundamental analysis and
proprietary  computer models to identify those securities to be purchased,  sold
or sold short. Under normal conditions, the Fund will invest at least 65% of its
assets in long and/or short equity positions.

The Fund employs a long-short approach.  With this approach,  the Fund will seek
to purchase stocks of companies that, in the Manager's opinion,  have (1) strong
or improving  fundamentals,  (2) lower  vulnerability to adverse factors such as
Year 2000 ("Y2K") related  problems or deflation,  and/or (3) operate in sectors
of the market that show accelerating  momentum and strong relative strength.  At
the same  time,  the Fund will seek to sell short  stocks of  issuers  which the
Manager  believes  have  (1) weak or  deteriorating  fundamentals,  (2)  greater
vulnerability  to adverse  factors,  and/or (3) operate in sectors of the market
that show decelerating momentum and weak relative strength. Although the Manager
expects that the Fund's  "long" equity  positions  will  generally  outweigh its
"short" equity positions, the Fund is not restricted in the amount of its assets
that it may commit to short sales.

The investment  policies of the Fund may lead to frequent  changes in the Fund's
investments,  particularly in periods of volatile market movements.  A change in
the securities held by the Fund is known as "portfolio  turnover."  Although the
rate of portfolio turnover is difficult to predict, it is anticipated that under
normal  circumstances  the Fund's  portfolio  turnover  rate could reach 400% or
more.


PRINCIPAL  RISKS There are market and  investment  risks with any security.  The
value of an investment in the Fund will  fluctuate  over time and it is possible
to lose money invested in the Fund.


o    Stock Market Stock market movements will affect the Fund's share price on a
     daily basis. The Fund's  portfolio  securities could lose value as a result
     of a decline in the overall stock market.  When the Fund purchases a stock,
     it is said to have a "long" position in that stock. Selling a stock "short"
     means  that the Fund has sold a stock it does not own with the  expectation
     that it will be able to buy the  stock  later at a lower  price in order to
     close the  transaction  and  realize a gain on the  difference  between the
     respective sale and purchase  prices.  The Fund's  investment  results will
     suffer if there is a stock  market  advance  when the Fund has  significant
     "short"  equity  positions,  or if there is a stock market decline when the
     Fund has a significant "long" equity position.


o    Equity Investing An investment in the common stock of a company  represents
     a proportionate  ownership  interest in that company.  Therefore,  the Fund
     participates  in the  success or  failure of any  company in which it holds
     stock.  In  addition,  the  market  value of common  stocks  can  fluctuate
     significantly.


o    Short  Investing If the Fund's Manager takes short positions in stocks that
     increase  in value,  then the losses of the Fund may exceed  those of other
     stock mutual  funds that hold long  positions  only.  Since the Fund is not
     restricted  in the  amount of its  assets  that may be  allocated  to short
     sales,  significant  short equity  positions could increase the Fund's risk
     profile.  Investment  in shares of the Fund is more volatile and risky than
     many other mutual funds or other forms of investment.


o    Portfolio Strategy The Manager's skill in choosing appropriate  investments
     for the Fund will determine in large part the Fund's ability to achieve its
     investment  objective.  The risk exists  that the  Manager may  incorrectly
     allocate the Fund's investments between long and short equity positions.


o    Debt Securities  Investing in debt  securities  involves both interest rate
     and  credit  risk.  The value of debt  instruments  generally  increase  as
     interest rates decline. In addition, the risk of prepayment could adversely
     impact the Fund during a period of falling interest rates as the Fund would
     be required to invest the proceeds from such  investments at lower interest
     rates.  Conversely,  rising  interest rates tend to cause the value of debt
     securities to decrease.  The market value of debt  securities also tends to
     vary according to the relative financial condition of the issuer.

o    Portfolio  Turnover  Portfolio  turnover generally involves some expense to
     the Fund,  including  brokerage  commissions  or dealer  mark-ups and other
     transaction  costs  on the sale of  securities  and  reinvestment  in other
     securities.  Such sales may result in realization of taxable capital gains.
     A high portfolio  turnover will result in higher brokerage costs and taxes,
     which will affect the Fund's performance.

Other Expenses:*                                                     0.55%

Total Annual Fund Operating Expenses:                                2.30%

* "Other Expenses" are based on estimated amounts for the current fiscal year.


EXAMPLE:

This  example is intended to help you compare the cost of  investing in the Fund
with the cost of investing in other mutual funds.  The example  assumes that you
invest $10,000 in the Fund for the periods indicated and then redeem all of your
shares  at the  end of  those  periods.  The  example  also  assumes  that  your
investment has a 5% return each year, that the Fund's operating  expenses remain
the same, and that dividends and  distributions  are  reinvested.  Although your
actual costs may be higher or lower than those in this  example,  based on these
assumptions your cost would be:

MORE INFORMATION ABOUT THE FUND'S PRINCIPAL STRATEGIES AND RISKS
- -----------------------------------------------------------------------------

PRINCIPAL STRATEGIES:


The Manager uses a variety of investments  and investment  techniques in seeking
to achieve  the Fund's  investment  objective.  The  Fund's  primary  investment
strategies  are  described  below;  however,  the Fund may also  invest in other
securities,  use other strategies or engage in other investment practices. These
investments and strategies,  as well as those described in this prospectus,  are
described in detail in the  Statement of  Additional  Information.  Although the
Fund will attempt to achieve its investment objective,  there is no assurance it
will be successful.


The following describes the Manager's investment approach in greater detail.

Analysis:

o    Fundamental analysis: Companies are evaluated for their fundamental ability
     to withstand, or even take advantage of, adverse economic conditions,  such
     as the Y2K computer problem (considered paramount factors in the years 1999
     and 2000) as well as global deflation or a domestic recession. Factors such
     as cash  flow,  asset  values,  competitive  position,  current  price  and
     industry  outlook may also be  considered.  A Strongest  List and a Weakest
     List are produced based on this analysis.

o    Sector  analysis:  A proprietary  computer model  evaluates  various market
     sectors to aid the  Manager  in  selecting  for  purchase  securities  from
     sectors of the economy that are showing  strength or,  conversely,  selling
     securities short in sectors that are showing weakness.

o    Market trend analysis:  Based on a proprietary model, a bullish (indicating
     a rising  market)  or  bearish  (indicating  a  falling  market)  signal is
     generated.

Security Selection:


Based upon the results of both the  fundamental  and sector  analyses  discussed
above:


o A Buy Candidates List is created containing stocks in sectors ranked high.

o A Short-Sale Candidates List is created with stocks in sectors ranked low.

Portfolio Structure:

The Fund's assets will normally be invested as set forth below. Depending on the
Manager's  perception  of  market  conditions,   these  percentages  may  differ
substantially at various times.


o    Approximately  30% of the Fund's assets will be allocated to core positions
     (positions the Manager intends to hold for a while). The Manager intends to
     split  these  between  (a)  long  positions  in  stocks  selected  from the
     Strongest List and (b) short  positions in stocks selected from the Weakest
     List.

o    Approximately  50% of the Fund's  assets will  consist of  actively  traded
     equity  positions  which will be  allocated  based  upon the  market  trend
     analysis discussed above. In a bullish market trend, trading positions will
     be primarily  allocated to long  positions in stocks  selected from the Buy
     Candidates  List. In a bearish market trend,  this portion of the portfolio
     will consist  primarily of short equity  positions in stocks  selected from
     the Short-Sale Candidates List.

o    Approximately  20% of the Fund's assets will be invested in debt securities
     issued or guaranteed by the United  States  government  and its agencies or
     instrumentalities,  debt securities of investment  grade corporate  issuers
     and zero coupon  bonds.  If a debt  security  held by the Fund ceases to be
     rated or its rating is reduced below  investment-grade,  the Fund's Manager
     will review the investment in light of the Fund's investment  philosophy to
     determine  whether  or not  selling  the  security  would  be in  the  best
     interests of the Fund.

RISKS:


EQUITY  SECURITIES Since it purchases common stocks (referred to above as taking
a "long"  equity  position),  the Fund is subject to the risk that stock  prices
will fall over  short or  extended  periods  of time.  Historically,  the equity
markets have moved in cycles,  and the value of the Fund's equity securities may
fluctuate  drastically  from day to day.  Individual  companies  may report poor
results  or be  negatively  affected  by  industry  and/or  economic  trends and
developments.  The prices of  securities  issued by such  companies may suffer a
decline in response. These factors contribute to price volatility.

SHORT  SALES When the  Manager  anticipates  that the price of a  security  will
decline,  it may sell the  security  short and borrow the same  security  from a
broker or other  institution to complete the sale (referred to above as taking a
"short" equity  position).  The Fund may make a profit or incur a loss depending
upon whether the market price of the security decreases or increases between the
date of the short sale and the date on which the Fund must  replace the borrowed
security. An increase in the value of a security sold short by the Fund over the
price at which it was sold  short will  result in a loss to the Fund,  and there
can be no  assurance  that the Fund will be able to close out the  position at a
particular time or at an acceptable price.


FIXED INCOME SECURITIES The market values of fixed income  investments change in
response to interest rate changes and other  factors.  During periods of falling
interest  rates,  the values of outstanding  fixed income  securities  generally
rise.  Further,  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.  In addition to
these  fundamental  risks,  different  types of fixed income  securities  may be
subject to the following additional risks:


o    Credit Quality Risk - The possibility that an issuer will be unable to make
     timely payments of either principal or interest.

o    Prepayment or Call Risk - During periods of falling interest rates, certain
     debt  obligations  with high interest rates may be prepaid (or "called") by
     the issuer  prior to  maturity.  As a result,  the Fund may be  required to
     invest the proceeds from such investments at lower interest rates.


TEMPORARY DEFENSIVE  INVESTMENTS The Fund may, from time to time, take temporary
defensive  positions that are inconsistent with the Fund's principal  investment
strategies in attempting to respond to adverse  market,  economic,  political or
other  conditions.  During  these  times,  the Fund may invest up to 100% of its
assets  in cash or cash  equivalents,  shares  of  money  market  mutual  funds,
commercial paper, zero coupon bonds, repurchase agreements, and other securities
the Manager  believes to be consistent with the Fund's best interests.  During a
period in which the Fund takes a temporary defensive position,  the Fund may not
achieve its investment objective.

NON-PRINCIPAL  INVESTMENT STRATEGIES To a more limited extent, the Fund may, but
is not required to, utilize other investments and investment techniques that may
impact fund  performance,  including,  but not limited to, options on securities
and  stock  indices,  options  on  stock  index  futures  contracts,  and  other
derivatives  (i.e.,  financial  instruments  that derive  their value from other
securities or commodities, or that are based on indices).

INVESTMENT MANAGER


Weiss Money  Management,  Inc.,  4176 Burns Road,  Palm Beach  Gardens,  Florida
33410,  is the  investment  adviser  to the  Fund,  and is  responsible  for the
day-to-day  management of the assets. The Manager has been providing  investment
advisory  services to The Weiss Fund  (formerly  known as Weiss  Treasury  Fund)
since the Trust's  commencement of operations in 1996 and to individual  clients
since its inception in 1980.


Under the investment  advisory  agreement  with the Fund,  the Manager  provides
continuous advice and  recommendations  concerning the Fund's  investments.  The
Fund has agreed to  compensate  the  Manager  for its  services  by the  monthly
payment of a fee at the annual rate of 1.50% of the Fund's average net assets.

SUB-ADVISER

Harvest Advisors, Inc., 11612 Bee Cave Road, Suite 110, Austin, Texas 78733, has
been retained by the Manager to provide sub-advisory  services to the Fund. Tony
Sagami,  President  of  Harvest  Advisors,  has been  actively  involved  in the
development of sophisticated  investment  software and  quantitative  investment
strategies.  Harvest  Advisors  and/or  its  principals  have been  continuously
serving  institutional and individual  investors since 1993. Under its agreement
with the Manager,  the Sub-Adviser  renders continuous  investment advice to the
Manager with respect to  investment  and  reinvestment  of the Fund's  assets in
various  securities,  based upon computer models  constructed in accordance with
the Fund's  investment  objective and  policies;  however,  the Manager,  in the
exercise of its independent judgment,  retains ultimate discretion regarding and
responsibility  for the implementation of transactions in seeking to achieve the
Fund's  objective.  The Manager pays the Sub-Adviser a fee out of the investment
advisory fees it receives from the Fund.

PORTFOLIO MANAGER


John N. Breazeale.  Mr. Breazeale,  President of Weiss Money  Management,  Inc.,
President  and  Chairman  of the Board of  Trustees  of Weiss  Fund,  and assets
manager of the Weiss Treasury Only Money Market Fund, a separate series of Weiss
Fund, is primarily  responsible for implementing the Fund's principal investment
strategy; however, he is assisted by a team of investment professionals from the
Manager and the Sub-Adviser.  Mr. Breazeale has been a assets manager with Weiss
since 1994. Prior to 1994, Mr. Breazeale provided assets management  services at
Provident Institutional Management Inc., Mitchell Hutchins Asset Management Inc.
(a subsidiary of PaineWebber  Group), and with Mackenzie  Investment  Management
Inc. Mr. Breazeale has over 28 years' experience in the securities industry.


YEAR 2000 READINESS

The  services  provided  to the  Fund by  Weiss  and the  Fund's  other  service
providers are dependent on those service providers'  computer systems.  Computer
software  and  hardware  systems  in use  today  may not be able to  distinguish
between the year 2000 and the year 1900 because of the way dates are encoded and
calculated (the "Year 2000 Problem"). The failure to make this distinction could
have a negative  impact on  handling  securities  trades,  pricing  and  account
services.  Weiss is working with the Fund's other  service  providers to address
the Year 2000  Problem  with  respect  to the  computer  systems  that they use.
Specifically,  Weiss has completed changes to its internal hardware and software
in order to  complete  its Year  2000  readiness.  In  addition,  completed  Y2K
readiness  questionnaires  have been received from all of the financial  vendors
and service providers of the Manager and are currently being evaluated as to the
quality of their Y2K readiness  status.  The Fund  believes  these steps will be
sufficient  to avoid any  material  adverse  impact on the Fund.  At this  time,
however,  there can be no assurance that these steps will be sufficient to avoid
any adverse impact on the Fund.

- ------------------------------------------------------
DIVIDENDS AND DISTRIBUTIONS
- ------------------------------------------------------

The Fund intends to  distribute  to  shareholders  substantially  all of its net
investment  income annually.  Net investment income for the Fund consists of all
income accrued on the Fund's assets,  less all actual and accrued expenses.  The
Fund intends to  distribute  to  shareholders  net realized  capital gains after
utilization of capital loss carryforwards, if any, at least annually.

Distributions  by the Fund are  reinvested in  additional  shares of the Fund or
paid in cash at the  election of the  shareholder.  If no election is made,  all
distributions  will be reinvested in additional Fund shares. If an investment is
in the form of a retirement plan, all dividends and capital gains  distributions
must be reinvested into the shareholder's  account.  Distributions are generally
taxable, whether received in cash or reinvested.
Exchanges among the Weiss funds are also taxable events.

- ------------------------------------------------------
TAXES
- ------------------------------------------------------

Dividends  paid out of the  Fund's  net  investment  income  and net  short-term
capital gains will be taxable to you as ordinary  income.  Distributions  of net
long-term  capital  gains  are  taxable  to  you  as  long-term  capital  gains,
regardless of how long you have held your Fund shares. Distributions are taxable
to you in the same manner  whether  received in cash or reinvested in additional
Fund shares.

If shares of the Fund are held in a tax-deferred retirement plan account, income
and gain will not be taxable each year. Instead,  the taxable portion of amounts
held in a  retirement  plan account  generally  will be subject to tax only when
distributed from that account,  and all of those taxable amounts will be taxable
as ordinary income.

A  distribution  will be treated as paid to you on  December  31 of the  current
calendar  year if it is declared  by the Fund in  October,  November or December
with a record  date in such a month and paid by the Fund  during  January of the
following calendar year.

Each year the Fund will  notify  you of the tax  status of  dividends  and other
distributions.

Upon the sale or other  disposition  of your  Fund  shares,  you may  realize  a
capital gain or loss which will be long-term or short-term,  generally depending
upon how long you held your shares.

The  foregoing  discussion of federal tax  consequences  is intended for general
information  only.  You  should  consult  your  own tax  adviser  regarding  the
particular tax consequences of an investment in the Fund.

FINANCIAL HIGHLIGHTS

Since this is a new fund, no financial highlights data are available.

- ------------------------------------------------------
HOW TO INVEST IN THE FUND
- ------------------------------------------------------

BUYING SHARES

You may  buy  shares  of the  Fund  through  accounts  with  brokers  and  other
institutions  that are  authorized  to place  trades  in Fund  shares  for their
customers.  If you invest  through an authorized  institution,  you will have to
follow its procedures.  Your  institution may charge a fee for its services,  in
addition  to the fees  charged  by the  Fund.  You will also  generally  have to
address your correspondence or questions regarding the Fund to your institution.

The  minimum  initial  investment  in the Fund is  $5,000.  The  minimum  amount
required to make subsequent investments is $100.


Purchase  orders for shares of the Fund which are received by the transfer agent
on any  business  day by the  close of  regular  trading  on the New York  Stock
Exchange, normally 4:00 p.m. eastern time, receive the net asset value per share
next  determined  after  receipt of the order by the  transfer  agent.  Purchase
orders received after the close of regular  trading on the Exchange  receive the
net asset  value per share  next  determined  after  receipt of the order by the
transfer  agent.  Federal  funds  must be  immediately  available  to the Fund's
custodian in order for the transfer agent to execute a purchase order on a given
day. Shares of the Fund cannot be purchased by Federal Reserve wire on days that
either the Exchange or the Federal Reserve is closed.


- ---------------------------------------------------------------------
REDEEMING FUND SHARES
- ---------------------------------------------------------------------

If you own your shares  through an account  with a broker or other  institution,
contact that broker or institution to sell your shares.

- ------------------------------------------------------
TRANSACTION INFORMATION
- ------------------------------------------------------

NET ASSET VALUE

For purposes of processing  purchase and redemption  orders, the net asset value
per share of the Fund is  calculated  as of the close of regular  trading on the
New York Stock Exchange,  normally 4:00 p.m.  eastern time, on each business day
except those holidays which the Exchange observes.

On those days where the  Fund's  custodian  or the  Exchange  closes  early as a
result of such day being a partial  holiday or otherwise,  the Fund reserves the
right to advance on that day the time by which purchase and redemption  requests
must be received.

The  Fund's  administrator  determines  net asset  value per share by adding the
value of the Fund's investments,  cash and other assets, subtracting liabilities
attributable  to the Fund and then  dividing  the result by the number of shares
outstanding. Market prices are used to determine the value of the Fund's assets.
If market  prices are not readily  available  for a security or if a  security's
price is not considered to be market indicative,  that security may be valued by
another  method  that the Fund's  Board of  Trustees  or its  delegate  believes
accurately  reflects fair value. In those circumstances where a security's price
is not considered to be market indicative,  the security's  valuation may differ
from an available market quotation.

SUBMINIMUM ACCOUNTS

The Fund  reserves the right to  involuntarily  redeem an account after 30 days'
written  notice,  if the  account's  net asset value  falls and remains  below a
$2,500 minimum due to share redemptions and not market fluctuations.

SUSPENSION OF TRADING

Purchase  and  redemption  orders may be  suspended on days when the Exchange is
closed,  closes  early  as a result  of such  day  being a  partial  holiday  or
otherwise, when trading is restricted or otherwise as permitted by the SEC.

REDEMPTIONS IN KIND


In unusual circumstances, the Fund may make payment in readily marketable assets
securities at their market value equal to the redemption price.


SHORT-TERM TRADING

The Fund and the transfer agent may restrict  purchase  transactions  (including
exchanges)  when a pattern of frequent  purchases and redemptions in response to
short-term fluctuations in the Fund's share price appears evident.

         INVESTMENT OBJECTIVE, RESTRICTIONS AND TECHNIQUES

Investment Objective

The Fund is a  diversified  series of The Weiss Fund,  an  open-end,  management
investment  company.  The  investment  objective  of the Fund is to seek capital
appreciation. The investment objective of the Fund is not fundamental and may be
changed by the Trustees without shareholder approval. There is no assurance that
the Fund will achieve its objective.

Investments

The Fund's  investment  policies and techniques are summarized in the Prospectus
and set forth in greater  detail  below.  Unless  otherwise  stated,  the Fund's
policies are not fundamental.


The Fund pursues its  objective by investing  primarily in a portfolio of equity
securities,  such  as  common  stocks,  and  engaging  in  short  sales  of such
securities.  The Fund employs a "long-short"  approach.  With this approach, the
Fund will seek to purchase stocks of companies  that, in the Manager's  opinion,
have (1) strong or improving  fundamentals,  (2) lower  vulnerability to adverse
factors  such as Year 2000 ("Y2K")  related  problems or  deflation,  and/or (3)
operate  in sectors of the market  that show  accelerating  momentum  and strong
relative strength.  At the same time, the Fund will seek to sell short stocks of
issuers which the Manager believes have (1) weak or deteriorating  fundamentals,
(2) greater  vulnerability to adverse factors,  and/or (3) operate in sectors of
the market that show decelerating momentum and weak relative strength.  Although
the Manager  expects that the Fund's  "long"  equity  positions  will  generally
outweigh its "short" equity positions,  the Fund is not restricted in the amount
of its assets that it may commit to short sales.


Investments  may be made in  well-known,  established  companies,  as well as in
newer and relatively unseasoned  companies.  Individual security selection aided
by computer  technology is an important part of the Fund's investment  approach.
The Fund's  sub-advisor,  Harvest  Advisors,  Inc.  ("Harvest  Advisors"  or the
"Sub-Adviser"),  utilizes a risk  management  system  based upon a  quantitative
model  that  is a  combination  of  momentum,  price  behavior,  and  volatility
indicators.  The  objective of this model is to identify  those periods when the
stock market is vulnerable. This model is used to adjust the level of the Fund's
equity  exposure,  ranging from fully  invested,  neutral,  or short.  Potential
investments of the Fund are also evaluated using fundamental  analysis including
criteria such as earnings  outlook,  cash flow, asset values,  sustainability of
product  cycles,  expansion  opportunities,  management  capabilities,  industry
outlook,  competitive position, and current price relative to long-term value of
the  company.  The Fund  also  employs a  relative  strength  ranking  system to
identify the strongest and weakest sectors of the stock market.


Under  normal  circumstances,  it is  expected  that at least 65% of the  Fund's
assets will be invested in equity  securities,  comprised of both long and short
positions.  The Manager  anticipates that a portion of the Fund's assets will be
allocated,  in both long and short positions,  to stocks selected by the Manager
based primarily upon fundamental analysis, with a buy and hold strategy in mind.
In addition,  another  part of the Fund's  assets will be comprised of both long
and short  positions in stocks  selected by the Manager based upon such criteria
as  fundamental  momentum  and  relative  value,   invested  with  a  short-term
investment  strategy driven  primarily by sector  analysis.  The Manager expects
that  approximately 20% of the Fund's assets will, under normal  conditions,  be
invested in fixed-income securities, cash and cash equivalents. Depending on the
Manager's  perception  of  market  conditions,   these  percentages  may  differ
substantially at various times.


The following describes the Manager's investment approach in greater detail.





Analysis:

o    Fundamental analysis: Companies are evaluated for their fundamental ability
     to withstand, or even take advantage of, adverse economic conditions,  such
     as the Y2K computer problem (considered paramount factors in the years 1999
     and 2000) as well as global deflation or a domestic recession. Factors such
     as cash  flow,  asset  values,  competitive  position,  current  price  and
     industry  outlook may also be  considered.  A Strongest  List and a Weakest
     List are produced based on this analysis.

o    Sector  analysis: A proprietary computer model evaluates various market
     sectors to aid the  Manager  in  selecting  for  purchase  securities  from
     sectors of the economy that are showing  strength or,  conversely,  selling
     stocks short in sectors that are showing weakness.

o    Market  trend  analysis:  Based  on  a  proprietary  model,  a  bullish
     (indicating  a rising  market) or  bearish  (indicating  a falling  market)
     signal is generated.


Security Selection:



Based upon the results of both the fundamental and sector analyses discussed
above:

o    A Buy Candidates List is created containing stocks in sectors ranked high.

o    A Short-Sale Candidates List is created with stocks in sectors ranked low.

Portfolio Structure:

The Fund's assets will normally be invested as set forth below. Depending on the
Manager's  perception  of  market  conditions,   these  percentages  may  differ
substantially at various times.


o    Approximately  30% of the  Fund's  assets be  allocated  to core  positions
     (positions the Manager intends to hold for a while). The Manager intends to
     split  these  between  (a)  long  positions  in  stocks  selected  from the
     Strongest List and (b) short  positions in stocks selected from the Weakest
     List.

o    Approximately  50% of the Fund's assets will  normally  consist of actively
     traded equity positions which will be allocated based upon the market trend
     analysis  discussed above. In a bullish market,  trading  positions will be
     primarily  allocated  to long  positions  in stocks  selected  from the Buy
     Candidates  List.  In a bearish  market,  this  portion of the assets  will
     consist  primarily of short equity  positions in stocks  selected  from the
     Short-Sale Candidates List.


o    Approximately  20% of the Fund's assets will be invested in debt securities
     of corporate issuers,  including convertible  securities,  commercial paper
     and zero coupon  bonds,  and debt  securities  issued or  guaranteed by the
     United  States  government  and its  agencies  or  instrumentalities.  In a
     neutral market or for temporary defensive or emergency purposes, the Fund's
     exposure to these types of securities may be increased significantly.


The Fund  may,  but is not  required  to,  effect  transactions  in  options  on
securities  and stock indices and options on stock index  futures  contracts for
hedging purposes.

As a result of the investment techniques used by the Fund, the Fund expects that
a  significant  portion  (up to  100%)  of its  assets  will be  held in  liquid
securities in a segregated account as "cover" for the investment  techniques the
Fund  employs.  These  assets  may  not  be  sold  while  the  position  in  the
corresponding  instrument or  transaction  (e.g.,  option or short sale) is open
unless they are replaced by similar  assets.  As a result,  the  commitment of a
large portion of the Fund's assets to "cover" investment techniques could impede
portfolio  management or the Fund's ability to meet redemption requests or other
current obligations.

Descriptions  in this SAI of a  particular  investment  practice or technique in
which the Fund may engage  (such as short  selling or  hedging)  or a  financial
instrument  which the Fund may purchase  (such as options) are meant to describe
the spectrum of investments that the Manager,  in its discretion,  might, but is
not required to, use in managing the Fund's portfolio  assets.  The Manager may,
in its discretion, at any time employ such practice, technique or instrument for
one or more  funds  but not for all  funds  advised  by it.  Furthermore,  it is
possible that certain types of financial  instruments  or investment  techniques
described  herein may not be available,  permissible,  economically  feasible or
effective  for  their  intended  purposes  in all  markets.  Certain  practices,
techniques,  or instruments may not be principal  activities of the Fund but, to
the  extent  employed,  could  from time to time have a  material  impact on the
Fund's performance.


         Common Stocks

Common stock can be issued by  companies to raise cash;  all common stock shares
represent a  proportionate  ownership  interest in a company.  As a result,  the
value of common stock rises and falls with a company's  success or failure.  The
market value of common stock can fluctuate significantly, with smaller companies
being  particularly  susceptible to price swings.  Transaction  costs in smaller
company stocks may also be higher than those of larger companies.

         Short Sales

The Fund may seek to realize additional gains or hedge investments through short
sales.  Short sales are  transactions in which the Fund sells a security it does
not own in  anticipation  of a decline in the market value of that security.  To
complete such a transaction,  the Fund must borrow the security to make delivery
to the buyer.  The Fund then is obligated  to replace the  security  borrowed by
purchasing  it at the market price at or prior to the time of  replacement.  The
price at such time may be more or less than the price at which the  security was
sold by the Fund. Until the security is replaced,  the Fund is required to repay
the lender any  dividends or interest that accrue during the period of the loan.
To borrow the  security,  the Fund also may be required to pay a premium,  which
would increase the cost of the security sold. The net proceeds of the short sale
will be retained by the broker (or by the Fund's  custodian in a special custody
account),  to the extent necessary to meet margin requirements,  until the short
position is closed out. The Fund also will incur  transaction costs in effecting
short sales.

The Fund will  incur a loss as a result  of the  short  sale if the price of the
security  increases between the date of the short sale and the date on which the
Fund  replaces  the  borrowed  security.  The Fund  will  realize  a gain if the
security  declines in price between those dates.  The amount of any gain will be
decreased,  and the amount of any loss increased,  by the amount of the premium,
dividends,  interest or expenses  the Fund may be required to pay in  connection
with a short sale. There can be no assurance that the Fund will be able to close
out a short position at a particular time or at an acceptable price.

         Convertible Securities

The convertible securities in which the Fund may invest include corporate bonds,
notes, debentures, preferred stock and other securities that may be converted or
exchanged at a stated or determinable  exchange ratio into underlying  shares of
common stock.  Investments in convertible  securities can provide income through
interest  and  dividend   payments  as  well  as  an  opportunity   for  capital
appreciation  by  virtue  of their  conversion  or  exchange  features.  Because
convertible  securities  can be converted into equity  securities,  their values
will  normally  vary in some  proportion  with  those of the  underlying  equity
securities.  Convertible  securities  usually  provide a higher  yield  than the
underlying equity,  however, so that the price decline of a convertible security
may sometimes be less substantial  than that of the underlying  equity security.
The exchange ratio for any particular  convertible security may be adjusted from
time  to  time  due to  stock  splits,  dividends,  spin-offs,  other  corporate
distributions  or scheduled  changes in the  exchange  ratio.  Convertible  debt
securities and  convertible  preferred  stocks,  until  converted,  have general
characteristics similar to both debt and equity securities. Although to a lesser
extent than with debt  securities  generally,  the market  value of  convertible
securities tends to decline as interest rates increase and, conversely, tends to
increase as interest  rates decline.  In addition,  because of the conversion or
exchange feature,  the market value of convertible  securities typically changes
as the market value of the underlying common stock changes, and, therefore, also
tends to follow movements in the general market for equity securities.  When the
market  price  of  the  underlying  common  stock  increases,  the  price  of  a
convertible  security  tends  to  rise  as a  reflection  of  the  value  of the
underlying  common  stock,  although  typically  not as much as the price of the
underlying  common  stock.  While no  securities  investments  are without risk,
investments  in  convertible   securities   generally   entail  less  risk  than
investments in common stock of the same issuer.

As debt  securities,  convertible  securities are investments that provide for a
stream of income. Like all debt securities,  there can be no assurance of income
or principal  payments  because the issuers of the  convertible  securities  may
default on their  obligations (see following  section).  Convertible  securities
generally offer lower yields than non-convertible  securities of similar quality
because of their conversion or exchange features.

Convertible   securities   generally  are  subordinated  to  other  similar  but
non-convertible  securities of the same issuer,  although  convertible bonds, as
corporate  debt  obligations,  are  senior  in right of  payment  to all  equity
securities,  and  convertible  preferred stock is senior to common stock, of the
same  issuer.  However,   convertible  bonds  and  convertible  preferred  stock
typically  have lower  coupon  rates than  similar  non-convertible  securities.
Convertible  securities  may be  issued  as fixed  income  obligations  that pay
current income.

         Debt Securities

         In General.  Investment in debt securities  involves both interest rate
and  credit  risk.  Generally,  the  value of debt  instruments  rises and falls
inversely with  fluctuations in interest  rates. As interest rates decline,  the
value of debt securities generally increases.  Conversely, rising interest rates
tend to cause  the value of debt  securities  to  decrease.  Bonds  with  longer
maturities  generally are more volatile than bonds with shorter maturities.  The
market value of debt securities also varies according to the relative  financial
condition of the issuer. In general, lower-quality bonds offer higher yields due
to the increased risk that the issuer will be unable to meet its  obligations on
interest or principal payments at the time called for by the debt instrument.

         Investment-Grade   Debt  Securities.   The  Fund  may  invest  in  debt
securities  that are  given an  investment-grade  rating  by  Moody's  Investors
Service,  Inc.  ("Moody's") or Standard & Poor's Ratings Group ("S&P"),  and may
also invest in unrated debt  securities that are considered by the Manager to be
of comparable  quality.  Bonds rated Aaa by Moody's and AAA by S&P are judged to
be of the best quality  (i.e.,  capacity to pay interest and repay  principal is
extremely strong). Bonds rated Aa/AA are considered to be of high quality (i.e.,
capacity to pay interest and repay principal is very strong and differs from the
highest rated issues only to a small degree). Bonds rated A are viewed as having
many favorable investment attributes, but elements may be present that suggest a
susceptibility  to the adverse effects of changes in circumstances  and economic
conditions than debt in higher rated categories. Bonds rated Baa/BBB (considered
by Moody's to be "medium grade"  obligations) are considered to have an adequate
capacity to pay interest and repay principal,  but certain  protective  elements
may be lacking (i.e., such bonds lack outstanding investment characteristics and
have some  speculative  characteristics).  See Appendix A for a  description  of
these ratings.

Commercial Paper.  Commercial paper represents  short-term  unsecured promissory
notes issued in bearer form by bank holding companies,  corporations and finance
companies.  The Fund may invest in  commercial  paper  that is rated  Prime-1 by
Moody's or A-1 by S&P or, if not rated by Moody's or S&P, is issued by companies
having an outstanding debt issue rated Aaa or Aa by Moody's or AAA or AA by S&P.

U.S. Treasury Securities.  The Fund may invest in direct obligations of the U.S.
Treasury (e.g., Treasury bills, notes, and bonds). When such securities are held
to maturity, the payment of principal and interest is unconditionally guaranteed
by the U.S.  Government,  and therefore they are of the highest  possible credit
quality.  U.S. Treasury  securities that are not held to maturity are subject to
variations in market value caused by fluctuations in interest rates.

Zero  Coupon  Securities.  The Fund may invest in zero coupon  securities.  Zero
coupon bonds are issued and traded at a discount from their face value.  They do
not entitle the holder to any periodic payment of interest prior to maturity.

Current  federal  income tax law requires  holders of zero coupon  securities to
report the  portion of any  original  issue  discount  on such  securities  that
accrues during a given year as interest income,  even though the holders receive
no cash  payments  of  interest  during  the  year.  In  order to  qualify  as a
"regulated  investment  company"  under the Internal  Revenue  Code of 1986,  as
amended (the "Code"), and the regulations  thereunder,  the Fund must distribute
its investment  company  taxable  income,  including any original issue discount
accrued on zero coupon bonds. Because the Fund will not receive cash payments on
a current  basis in respect of any  accrued  original  issue  discount  on these
bonds,  in some years the Fund may have to  distribute  cash obtained from other
sources in order to satisfy the  distribution  requirements  under the Code. The
Fund might obtain such cash from selling other  portfolio  holdings  which might
cause the Fund to incur capital gains or losses on the sale. Additionally, these
actions  are  likely  to  reduce  the  assets to which  Fund  expenses  could be
allocated and to reduce the rate of return for the Fund. In some  circumstances,
such sales might be necessary in order to satisfy cash distribution requirements
even though  investment  considerations  might otherwise make it undesirable for
the Fund to sell the securities at the time.

Generally,  the market prices of zero coupon  securities  are more volatile than
the prices of  securities  that pay  interest  periodically  and in cash and are
likely to respond to changes in  interest  rates to a greater  degree than other
types of debt securities having similar maturities and credit quality.

When-Issued  Securities.  When the Fund  purchases new issues of securities on a
when-issued  basis, the Fund's custodian will establish a segregated account for
the Fund consisting of cash, U.S.  Treasury  securities or other high-grade debt
securities equal to the amount of the commitment.  If the value of securities in
the account should decline,  additional cash or securities will be placed in the
account so that the market  value of the  account  will equal the amount of such
commitments by the Fund on a daily basis.

Securities  purchased  on a  when-issued  basis and the  securities  held in the
Fund's  portfolio  are  subject to changes in market  value  based upon  various
factors including changes in the level of market interest rates. Generally,  the
value of such securities  will fluctuate  inversely to changes in interest rates
(i.e.,  they will  appreciate  in value when market  interest  rates decline and
decrease in value when market  interest  rates rise).  For this reason,  placing
securities  rather than cash in the  segregated  account  may have a  leveraging
effect on the Fund's net  assets.  In other  words,  to the extent that the Fund
remains  substantially fully invested in securities at the same time that it has
committed to purchase  securities on a when-issued  basis, there will be greater
fluctuations  in its net assets  than if it had set aside  cash to  satisfy  its
purchase commitment. Upon the settlement date of the when-issued securities, the
Fund  ordinarily  will meet its  obligation  to  purchase  the  securities  from
available cash flow, use of the cash (or liquidation of securities)  held in the
segregated  account or sale of other securities.  Although it would not normally
expect  to do so,  the Fund  also may meet its  obligation  from the sale of the
when-issued securities themselves (which may have a current market value greater
or less than the Fund's payment obligation). The sale of securities to meet such
obligations  carries with it a greater  potential for the realization of capital
gains.

         Warrants

The Fund may invest up to 5% of its total  assets in  warrants.  The holder of a
warrant has the right, until the warrant expires,  to purchase a given number of
shares of a particular issuer at a specified price. Such investments can provide
a greater  potential  for profit or loss than an  equivalent  investment  in the
underlying  security.  However,  prices of warrants do not necessarily move in a
tandem  with  the  prices  of the  underlying  securities  and  are,  therefore,
considered  speculative  investments.  Warrants pay no  dividends  and confer no
rights other than a purchase  option.  Thus,  if a warrant held by the Fund were
not  exercised  by the date of its  expiration,  the Fund  would lose the entire
purchase price of the warrant.

         Repurchase Agreements

The Fund may enter into  repurchase  agreements  with selected  brokers-dealers,
banks or other financial institutions.  A repurchase agreement is an arrangement
under which the purchaser (i.e., the Fund) purchases a U.S.  Government or other
high quality  short-term debt obligation (an "Obligation") and the seller agrees
at the time of sale to repurchase the Obligation at a specified time and price.

Custody  of the  Obligation  will be  maintained  by the Fund's  custodian.  The
repurchase  price may be higher than the purchase  price,  the difference  being
income to the applicable Fund, or the purchase and repurchase  prices may be the
same,  with  interest  at a  stated  rate  due to the  Fund  together  with  the
repurchase  price on  repurchase.  In  either  case,  the  income to the Fund is
unrelated  to the  interest  rate on the  Obligation  subject to the  repurchase
agreement.

Repurchase  agreements pose certain risks for all entities,  including the Fund,
that  utilize  them.  Such risks are not unique to the Fund but are  inherent in
repurchase  agreements.  The Fund seeks to minimize such risks by, among others,
the means  indicated  below,  but because of the  inherent  legal  uncertainties
involved in repurchase agreements, such risks cannot be eliminated.

For purposes of the 1940 Act, a repurchase agreement is deemed to be a loan from
the Fund to the  seller of the  Obligation.  It is not clear  whether  for other
purposes a court would consider the Obligation  purchased by the Fund subject to
a repurchase  agreement as being owned by the Fund or as being  collateral for a
loan by the Fund to the seller.

If in the event of bankruptcy or  insolvency  proceedings  against the seller of
the Obligation,  a court holds that the Fund does not have a perfected  security
interest in the Obligation, the Fund may be required to return the Obligation to
the seller's estate and be treated as an unsecured creditor of the seller. As an
unsecured  creditor,  the  Fund  would be at risk of  losing  some or all of the
principal and income  involved in the  transaction.  To minimize this risk,  the
Fund utilizes  custodians and  subcustodians  that the Manager  believes  follow
customary  securities  industry practice with respect to repurchase  agreements,
and the Manager analyzes the  creditworthiness  of the obligor, in this case the
seller of the  Obligation.  But because of the legal  uncertainties,  this risk,
like others associated with repurchase agreements, cannot be eliminated.

Also, in the event of commencement of bankruptcy or insolvency  proceedings with
respect to the seller of the  Obligation  before  repurchase  of the  Obligation
under a  repurchase  agreement,  the Fund may  encounter  delay and incur  costs
before  being  able to sell  the  security.  Such a delay  may  involve  loss of
interest or a decline in price of the Obligation.

Apart from risks associated with bankruptcy or insolvency proceedings,  there is
also the risk that the seller may fail to repurchase the security.  However,  if
the market value of the Obligation  subject to the repurchase  agreement becomes
less than the repurchase price (including accrued interest), the applicable Fund
will direct the seller of the  Obligation  to deliver  additional  securities so
that the market  value of all  securities  subject to the  repurchase  agreement
equals or exceeds the repurchase price.

Certain  repurchase  agreements  which provide for settlement in more than seven
days can be  liquidated  before the  nominal  fixed term on seven  days' or less
notice. Such repurchase agreements will be regarded as illiquid instruments. The
Fund  currently  intends to limit its  investments  in repurchase  agreements to
those with maturities of less than seven days.

The Fund  may also  enter  into  repurchase  agreements  with any  party  deemed
creditworthy  by the Manager,  including  broker-dealers,  if the transaction is
entered into for investment purposes and the counterparty's  creditworthiness is
at least equal to that of issuers of securities which the Fund may purchase.

         Other Investment Companies

 When the Fund invests in another mutual fund, it pays a pro rata portion of the
advisory  fees and other  expenses of that fund as a  shareholder  of that fund.
These  expenses are in addition to the advisory and other expenses the Fund pays
in connection with its own operations.

         Options

The Fund may, but is not required to,  purchase and sell put and call options on
its portfolio  securities to protect against changes in market prices.  There is
no  assurance  that the  Fund's use of put and call  options  will  achieve  its
desired  objective,  and the Fund's  use of options  may result in losses to the
Fund.


         Covered  Call  Options.  The Fund may write  covered  call options as a
limited form of hedging  against a decline in the price of  securities  owned by
the Fund.

A call option gives the holder the right to purchase,  and  obligates the writer
to sell,  a security at the  exercise  price at any time  before the  expiration
date. A call option is "covered" if the writer,  at all times while obligated as
a writer,  either  owns the  underlying  securities  (or  comparable  securities
satisfying the cover requirements of the securities exchanges), or has the right
to acquire such securities through immediate conversion of securities.

In return for the premium  received  when it writes a covered call  option,  the
Fund gives up some or all of the  opportunity  to profit from an increase in the
market price of the  securities  covering the call option during the life of the
option.  The Fund  retains the risk of loss should the price of such  securities
decline.  If the option expires  unexercised,  the Fund realizes a gain equal to
the  premium,  which  may be  offset  by a  decline  in price of the  underlying
security. If the option is exercised,  the Fund realizes a gain or loss equal to
the  difference  between the Fund's  cost for the  underlying  security  and the
proceeds  of sale  (exercise  price  minus  commissions)  plus the amount of the
premium.

The Fund may  terminate a call  option that it has written  before it expires by
entering into a closing  purchase  transaction.  The Fund may enter into closing
purchase transactions in order to free itself to sell the underlying security or
to write another call on the security,  realize a profit on a previously written
call option,  or protect a security  from being called in an  unexpected  market
rise. Any profits from a closing purchase transaction may be offset by a decline
in the value of the underlying  security.  Conversely,  because increases in the
market  price of a call option will  generally  reflect  increases in the market
price of the underlying  security,  any loss  resulting from a closing  purchase
transaction  is  likely  to  be  offset  in  whole  or  in  part  by  unrealized
appreciation of the underlying security owned by the Fund.

         Covered  Put  Options.  The Fund may write  covered  put  options  as a
limited form of hedging  against an increase in the price of securities that the
Fund plans to  purchase.  A put option  gives the holder the right to sell,  and
obligates the writer to buy, a security at the exercise price at any time before
the expiration date. A put option is "covered" if the writer segregates cash and
high-grade short-term debt obligations or other permissible  collateral equal to
the price to be paid if the option is exercised.

In addition to the receipt of premiums and the potential gains from  terminating
such options in closing purchase  transactions,  the Fund also receives interest
on the cash and debt  securities  maintained to cover the exercise  price of the
option.  By  writing  a put  option,  the Fund  assumes  the risk that it may be
required to purchase the  underlying  security for an exercise price higher than
its then current market value,  resulting in a potential capital loss unless the
security later appreciates in value.

The Fund may  terminate a put option that it has written  before it expires by a
closing purchase transaction. Any loss from this transaction may be partially or
entirely offset by the premium received on the terminated option.

Although  it has no  current  intention  of doing  so,  the Fund may also  write
covered put and call options to attempt to enhance its current return.

         Purchasing Put and Call Options. The Fund may also purchase put options
to protect portfolio holdings against a decline in market value. This protection
lasts  for the life of the put  option  because  the  Fund,  as a holder  of the
option, may sell the underlying security at the exercise price regardless of any
decline in its market  price.  In order for a put option to be  profitable,  the
market price of the  underlying  security  must decline  sufficiently  below the
exercise  price to cover the  premium and  transaction  costs that the Fund must
pay. These costs will reduce any profit the Fund might have realized had it sold
the underlying security instead of buying the put option.

The Fund may purchase  call options to hedge against an increase in the price of
securities  that the Fund wants  ultimately  to buy.  Such hedge  protection  is
provided  during the life of the call  option  since the Fund,  as holder of the
call  option,  is able to buy the  underlying  security  at the  exercise  price
regardless of any increase in the underlying  security's  market price. In order
for a call option to be profitable,  the market price of the underlying security
must  rise  sufficiently  above the  exercise  price to cover  the  premium  and
transaction  costs.  These  costs  will  reduce  any  profit the Fund might have
realized had it bought the underlying security at the time it purchased the call
option.

Although it has no current intention of doing so, the Fund may also purchase put
and call options to attempt to enhance its current return.

         Risks  Involved in the Sale of Options.  Options  transactions  involve
certain risks,  including the risks that the Manager will not forecast  interest
rate or  market  movements  correctly,  that the Fund may be  unable at times to
close out such positions,  or that hedging transactions may not accomplish their
purpose because of imperfect  market  correlations.  The successful use of these
strategies depends on the ability of the Manager to forecast market and interest
rate movements correctly.

An exchange-listed option may be closed out only on an exchange which provides a
secondary market for an option of the same series.  There is no assurance that a
liquid secondary  market on an exchange will exist for any particular  option or
at any  particular  time.  If no  secondary  market  were to exist,  it would be
impossible to enter into a closing  transaction to close out an option position.
As a result,  the Fund may be forced to  continue  to hold,  or to purchase at a
fixed  price,  a  security  on which it has sold an  option  at a time  when the
Manager believes it is inadvisable to do so.

Higher  than  anticipated  trading  activity  or order flow or other  unforeseen
events might cause The Options Clearing  Corporation or an exchange to institute
special trading procedures or restrictions that might restrict the Fund's use of
options.  The exchanges  have  established  limitations on the maximum number of
calls and puts of each class that may be held or written by an investor or group
of investors acting in concert.  It is possible that the Trust and other clients
of the  Manager  may be  considered  such a group.  These  position  limits  may
restrict  the  Fund's   ability  to  purchase  or  sell  options  on  particular
securities.

Options which are not traded on national securities  exchanges may be closed out
only with the other party to the option transaction.  For that reason, it may be
more difficult to close out unlisted  options than listed options.  Furthermore,
unlisted options are not subject to the protection afforded purchasers of listed
options by The Options Clearing Corporation.

Government regulations may also restrict the Fund's use of options.

         Futures Contracts

         Index Futures Contracts and Options.  The Fund may buy and sell options
on stock index futures contracts for hedging purposes. The Fund may also buy and
sell stock index futures  contracts to the extent necessary to close out an open
futures  option.  A stock  index  futures  contract is a contract to buy or sell
units of a stock  index at a specified  future date at a price  agreed upon when
the contract is made. A unit is the current value of the stock index.

The following  example  illustrates  generally the manner in which index futures
contracts  operate.  The Standard & Poor's 100 Stock Index (the "S&P 100 Index")
is composed of 100 selected  common stocks,  most of which are listed on the New
York Stock Exchange. The S&P 100 Index assigns relative weightings to the common
stocks  included  in the Index,  and the Index  fluctuates  with  changes in the
market  values  of  those  common  stocks.  In the  case of the  S&P 100  Index,
contracts are to buy or sell 100 units.  Thus, if the value of the S&P 100 Index
were $180,  one contract  would be worth  $18,000 (100 units x $180).  The stock
index futures contract specifies that no delivery of the actual stocks making up
the index  will take  place.  Instead,  settlement  in cash must  occur upon the
termination of the contract,  with the settlement  being the difference  between
the contract  price and the actual level of the stock index at the expiration of
the contract. For example, if the Fund enters into a futures contract to buy 100
units of the S&P 100 Index at a  specified  future  date at a contract  price of
$180 and the S&P 100 Index is at $184 on that  future  date,  the Fund will gain
$400 (100 units x gain of $4).  If the Fund  enters  into a futures  contract to
sell 100 units of the stock index at a specified future date at a contract price
of $180 and the S&P 100 Index is at $182 on that future date, the Fund will lose
$200 (100 units x loss of $2).

Positions  in index  futures  may be closed out only on an  exchange or board of
trade which provides a secondary market for such futures.

In order to hedge its  investments  successfully  using  futures  contracts  and
related  options,  the Fund must  invest in futures  contracts  with  respect to
indexes or  sub-indexes  the movements of which will,  in its  judgment,  have a
significant correlation with movements in the prices of the Fund's securities.

Options on index futures  contracts give the purchaser the right,  in return for
the  premium  paid,  to assume a position in an index  futures  contract (a long
position if the option is a call and a short position if the option is a put) at
a specified  exercise  price at any time  during the period of the option.  Upon
exercise of the option,  the holder would assume the underlying futures position
and would receive a variation margin payment of cash or securities approximating
the  increase  in the value of the  holder's  option  position.  If an option is
exercised  on the last trading day prior to the  expiration  date of the option,
the settlement will be made entirely in cash based on the difference between the
exercise  price of the  option and the  closing  level of the index on which the
futures contract is based on the expiration date. Purchasers of options who fail
to  exercise  their  options  prior to the  exercise  date  suffer a loss of the
premium paid.

As an  alternative  to  purchasing  and  selling  call and put  options on index
futures  contracts,  the Fund may  purchase and sell call and put options on the
underlying  indexes  themselves  to the extent  that such  options are traded on
national  securities  exchanges.   Index  options  are  similar  to  options  on
individual  securities  in that the  purchaser of an index  option  acquires the
right to buy (in the  case of a call)  or sell  (in the case of a put),  and the
writer  undertakes  the obligation to sell or buy (as the case may be), units of
an index at a stated  exercise  price during the term of the option.  Instead of
giving the right to take or make actual delivery of securities, the holder of an
index option has the right to receive a cash "exercise  settlement amount." This
amount is equal to the  amount by which the fixed  exercise  price of the option
exceeds  (in the  case of a put) or is less  than  (in the  case of a call)  the
closing value of the underlying index on the date of the exercise, multiplied by
a fixed "index multiplier."

The Fund may purchase or sell options on stock indices in order to close out its
outstanding  positions in options on stock indices which it has  purchased.  The
Fund may also allow such options to expire unexercised.

Compared to the purchase or sale of futures  contracts,  the purchase of call or
put options on an index  involves  less  potential  risk to the Fund because the
maximum  amount at risk is the premium  paid for the options  plus  transactions
costs. The writing of a put or call option on an index involves risks similar to
those risks relating to the purchase or sale of index futures contracts.

Although it does not currently  intend to do so, the Fund may buy and sell stock
index futures  contracts and related  options to attempt to increase  investment
return, provided that the aggregate initial margins and premiums involved do not
exceed 5% of the fair market value of the Fund's total assets.

         Margin Payments.  When the Fund purchases or sells a futures  contract,
it is required to deposit with its  custodian an amount of cash,  U.S.  Treasury
bills, or other permissible collateral equal to a small percentage of the amount
of the futures contract. This amount is known as "initial margin." The nature of
initial margin is different from that of margin in security transactions in that
it does not involve  borrowing money to finance  transactions.  Rather,  initial
margin is similar to a  performance  bond or good faith deposit that is returned
to the Fund upon  termination  of the contract,  assuming the Fund satisfies its
contractual obligations.

Subsequent  payments to and from the broker  occur on a daily basis in a process
known as "marking to market." These payments are called  "variation  margin" and
are  made as the  value  of the  underlying  futures  contract  fluctuates.  For
example,  when the Fund sells a futures contract and the price of the underlying
index rises above the delivery price, the Fund's position declines in value. The
Fund then pays the broker a variation  margin  payment  equal to the  difference
between the  delivery  price of the futures  contract and the value of the index
underlying  the futures  contract.  Conversely,  if the price of the  underlying
index  falls  below the  delivery  price of the  contract,  the  Fund's  futures
position  increases  in value.  The  broker  then must make a  variation  margin
payment  equal to the  difference  between  the  delivery  price of the  futures
contract and the value of the index underlying the futures contract.

When the Fund terminates a position in a futures contract, a final determination
of variation margin is made,  additional cash is paid by or to the Fund, and the
Fund realizes a loss or a gain.  Such closing  transactions  involve  additional
commission costs.

         Special Risks of Transactions in Futures Contracts and Related Options

         Liquidity Risks.  Positions in futures contracts may be closed out only
on an  exchange or board of trade  which  provides a  secondary  market for such
futures. Although the Fund intends to purchase or sell futures only on exchanges
or boards of trade where there appears to be an active secondary  market,  there
is no assurance that a liquid  secondary market on an exchange or board of trade
will exist for any particular  contract or at any  particular  time. If there is
not a liquid  secondary  market at a particular  time, it may not be possible to
close a  futures  position  at such  time and,  in the  event of  adverse  price
movements, the Fund would continue to be required to make daily cash payments of
variation  margin.  However,  in the event  financial  futures are used to hedge
portfolio  securities,  such  securities  will not  generally  be sold until the
financial futures can be terminated.  In such circumstances,  an increase in the
price of the portfolio  securities,  if any, may partially or completely  offset
losses on the financial futures.

The ability to establish and close out positions in options on futures contracts
will be subject to the development and maintenance of a liquid secondary market.
It is not certain that such a market will develop.  Although the Fund  generally
will  purchase  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. In the
event no such market exists for particular  options, it might not be possible to
effect closing transactions in such options, with the result that the Fund would
have to exercise the options in order to realize any profit.

         Hedging  Risks.  There are several risks in connection  with the use by
the Fund of futures contracts and related options as a hedging device.  One risk
arises because of the imperfect  correlation  between movements in the prices of
the futures contracts and options and movements in the underlying  securities or
index or movements in the prices of the Fund's  securities which are the subject
of a hedge. The Manager will, however, attempt to reduce this risk by purchasing
and selling,  to the extent possible,  futures  contracts and related options on
securities  and indexes the movements of which will, in its judgment,  correlate
closely with movements in the prices of the  underlying  securities or index and
the Fund's portfolio securities sought to be hedged.

Successful use of futures contracts and options by the Fund for hedging purposes
is also subject to the Manager's ability to predict  correctly  movements in the
direction of the market.  It is possible that, where the Fund has purchased puts
on futures contracts to hedge its portfolio against a decline in the market, the
securities  or index on which the puts are  purchased  may increase in value and
the value of securities held in the portfolio may decline. If this occurred, the
Fund would lose money on the puts and also  experience a decline in value in its
portfolio  securities.  In  addition,  the  prices of  futures,  for a number of
reasons, may not correlate perfectly with movements in the underlying securities
or index due to certain  market  distortions.  First,  all  participants  in the
futures market are subject to margin deposit requirements. Such requirements may
cause investors to close futures contracts through offsetting transactions which
could distort the normal  relationship  between the underlying security or index
and futures markets.  Second, the margin requirements in the futures markets are
less onerous than margin requirements in the securities markets in general,  and
as a result the futures markets may attract more speculators than the securities
markets do.  Increased  participation  by speculators in the futures markets may
also  cause  temporary  price  distortions.  Due to  the  possibility  of  price
distortion,  even a correct  forecast  of general  market  trends by the Manager
still may not result in a successful hedging  transaction over a very short time
period.

         Other Risks.  The Fund will incur  brokerage  fees in  connection  with
their futures and options transactions. In addition, while futures contracts and
options on futures will be purchased  and sold to reduce  certain  risks,  those
transactions  themselves  entail certain other risks.  Thus,  while the Fund may
benefit from the use of futures and related  options,  unanticipated  changes in
interest  rates  or  stock  price  movements  may  result  in a  poorer  overall
performance  for the Fund than if it had not entered into any futures  contracts
or options  transactions.  Moreover,  in the event of an  imperfect  correlation
between the futures position and the portfolio  position which is intended to be
protected,  the  desired  protection  may not be  obtained  and the  Fund may be
exposed to risk of loss.

         Temporary Defensive Strategies

At times,  the Fund's Manager may judge that economic or market  conditions make
pursuing  the  Fund's  basic  investment  strategy  inconsistent  with  the best
interests of its  shareholders.  At such times,  the Manager may temporarily use
alternative strategies,  primarily designed to reduce fluctuations in the values
of the Fund's assets. In implementing these "defensive strategies", the Fund may
invest in cash or cash equivalents, shares of money market investment companies,
commercial paper, zero coupon bonds, repurchase agreements, and other securities
its Manager believes to be consistent with the Fund's best interests.

         Investment Restrictions

The Fund has elected to be  classified  as a  diversified  series of an open-end
investment  company.  In  addition,  the Fund is subject to certain  fundamental
policies and restrictions that may not be changed without shareholder  approval.
Shareholder  approval  means  approval by the lesser of (i) more than 50% of the
outstanding  voting  securities of the Trust (or a particular series if a matter
affects just that series),  or (ii) 67% or more of the voting securities present
at a  meeting  if the  holders  of  more  than  50% of  the  outstanding  voting
securities of the Trust (or a particular  series) are present or  represented by
proxy. As a matter of fundamental policy, the Fund may not:

(1)  borrow money,  except as permitted under the 1940 Act and as interpreted or
     modified by regulatory authority having jurisdiction, from time to time;

(2)  issue  senior  securities,  except as  permitted  under the 1940 Act and as
     interpreted or modified by regulatory authority having  jurisdiction,  from
     time to time;

(3)  engage in the business of underwriting  securities issued by others, except
     to  the  extent  that  the  Fund  may be  deemed  to be an  underwriter  in
     connection with the disposition of portfolio securities;

(4)  purchase or sell real  estate,  which term does not include  securities  of
     companies which deal in real estate or mortgages or investments  secured by
     real estate or interests therein,  except that the Fund reserves freedom of
     action to hold and to sell real  estate  acquired as a result of the Fund's
     ownership of securities;

(5)  purchase   physical   commodities   or   contracts   relating  to  physical
     commodities; or

(6)  make loans except as  permitted  under the 1940 Act and as  interpreted  or
     modified by regulatory authority having jurisdiction, from time to time.

          Nonfundamental  policies  may be changed by the  Trustees of the Trust
          and  without  shareholder  approval.  As a  matter  of  nonfundamental
          policy, the Fund does not currently intend to:

          borrow money in an amount  greater than one-third of its total assets,
          except (i) for temporary or emergency purposes and (ii) by engaging in
          reverse repurchase  agreements,  dollar rolls, or other investments or
          transactions  described in the Fund's registration statement which may
          be deemed to be borrowings;

(2)  enter into either of reverse  repurchase  agreements  or dollar rolls in an
     amount greater than 5% of its total assets;

(3)  purchase  securities  on margin,  except (i) in connection  with  arbitrage
     transactions,  (ii) for margin  deposits in  connection  with short  sales,
     futures contracts,  options or other permitted investments,  and (iii) that
     the Fund may obtain such  short-term  credits as may be  necessary  for the
     clearance of securities transactions;

(4)  purchase  options,  unless the aggregate  premiums paid on all such options
     held by the Fund at any time do not exceed 20% of its total assets; or sell
     put  options,  if as a  result,  the  aggregate  value  of the  obligations
     underlying such put options would exceed 50% of its total assets;

(5)  enter into  futures  contracts or purchase  options  thereon for other than
     bona fide hedging purposes unless immediately after the purchase, the value
     of the  aggregate  initial  margin with respect to such  futures  contracts
     entered into on behalf of the Fund and the  premiums  paid for such options
     on futures  contracts  does not exceed 5% of the fair  market  value of the
     Fund's  total  assets;  provided  that  in the  case of an  option  that is
     in-the-money  at the  time of  purchase,  the  in-the-money  amount  may be
     excluded in computing the 5% limit;

(6)  purchase  warrants if as a result,  such securities,  taken at the lower of
     cost or  market  value,  would  represent  more than 5% of the value of the
     Fund's  total  assets  (for this  purpose,  warrants  acquired  in units or
     attached to securities will be deemed to have no value); and

(7)  lend portfolio  securities in an amount greater than one-third of its total
     assets.

Whenever  an  investment  objective,  policy  or  restriction  set  forth in the
Prospectus  or  this  Statement  of  Additional  Information  states  a  maximum
percentage  of assets  that may be  invested  in any  security or other asset or
describes a policy regarding quality  standards,  such percentage  limitation or
standard shall, unless otherwise indicated, apply to the Fund only at the time a
transaction is entered into. Accordingly,  if a percentage limitation is adhered
to at the time of  investment,  a later  increase or decrease in the  percentage
which results from  circumstances  not involving any  affirmative  action by the
Fund,  such as a change in market  conditions  or a change in the  Fund's  asset
level or other circumstances beyond the Fund's control, will not be considered a
violation.

         ORGANIZATION OF THE FUND


The Fund is a  diversified  series of The Weiss  Fund,  an  open-end  management
investment  company  registered  under the 1940 Act. The Trust was  organized on
August 10, 1995 as a Massachusetts  business trust under the name Weiss Treasury
Fund.  The Trust's name was changed in April 1999. The Trust is comprised of two
series:  Weiss Treasury Only Money Market Fund and Weiss Treasury Bond Fund, the
latter of which did not commence  operations  and has been  redesignated  as the
Fund.  The Board of Trustees of the Trust  oversees the business  affairs of the
Trust and is  responsible  for  significant  decisions  relating  to the  Fund's
investment  objective  and  policies.   The  Trustees  delegate  the  day-to-day
management of the Fund to the officers of the Trust.


The Trust's  authorized  capital  consists of an  unlimited  number of shares of
beneficial  interest,  $.01 par  value,  all of which  have  equal  rights as to
voting, dividends and liquidation.  The Trustees have the authority to issue two
or more series of shares and to designate the relative rights and preferences as
between the different series. The Trustees,  in their discretion,  may authorize
the division of shares of a series into different classes,  permitting shares of
different classes to be distributed by different methods.  Although shareholders
of different classes of a series would have an interest in the same portfolio of
assets,  shareholders  of  different  classes  may bear  different  expenses  in
connection with different methods of distribution.  The Trustees have authorized
the  establishment and designation of two classes of shares of the Fund, Class A
and Class S shares.  This SAI relates to the Fund's  Class A shares.  All shares
issued and outstanding will be fully paid and  non-assessable  by the Trust, and
redeemable as described in this Statement of Additional  Information  and in the
Prospectus.


On  February  23,  1995,  the SEC adopted  Rule 18f-3 under the 1940 Act,  which
permits a registered  open-end  investment  company to issue multiple classes of
shares in accordance  with a written plan approved by the  investment  company's
board of  directors/trustees  and filed with the SEC. At a meeting held on April
27,  1999,  the Board  adopted a Rule 18f-3 plan on behalf of the Fund.  The key
features of the Rule 18f-3 plan are as follows:  (i) shares of each class of the
Fund  represent  an equal  pro rata  interest  in the  Fund and  generally  have
identical voting, dividend, liquidation, and other rights, preferences,  powers,
restrictions,  limitations,  qualifications,  terms and conditions,  except that
each class bears certain class-specific  expenses and has separate voting rights
on certain matters that relate solely to that class or in which the interests of
shareholders  of one class differ from the interests of  shareholders of another
class and (ii) subject to certain limitations described in the Prospectus, Class
A shares of the Fund may be  exchanged  for  shares of the same class of another
Weiss fund.


The  assets of the Trust  received  for the issue or sale of the  shares of each
series  (or class  thereof)  and all  income,  earnings,  profits  and  proceeds
thereof,  subject only to the rights of creditors, are specifically allocated to
such series (or class  thereof) and  constitute  the  underlying  assets of such
series (or class).  The underlying  assets of each series (or class thereof) are
segregated on the books of account,  and are to be charged with the  liabilities
in respect to such  series  (or  class)  and with a  proportionate  share of the
general  liabilities  of  the  Trust.  If a  series  were  unable  to  meet  its
obligations,  the  assets  of all  other  series  may in some  circumstances  be
available to creditors for that purpose,  in which case the assets of such other
series  could  be used to meet  liabilities  which  are not  otherwise  properly
chargeable  to them.  Expenses  with respect to any two or more series are to be
allocated in proportion to the asset value of the respective series except where
allocations of direct expenses can otherwise be fairly made. The officers of the
Trust,  subject to the general  supervision  of the Trustees,  have the power to
determine  which  liabilities  are  allocable  to a given  series,  or which are
general or allocable to two or more series.  In the event of the  dissolution or
liquidation of the Trust or any series,  the holders of the shares of any series
are  entitled  to  receive  as a class  the  underlying  assets  of such  shares
available for distribution to shareholders.

Shares of each class of each series of the Trust  entitle  their  holders to one
vote per  share;  however,  separate  votes are taken by each  series on matters
affecting an  individual  series.  Generally,  all classes of shares of a series
will vote together,  except with respect to a distribution  plan applicable to a
class of that  series or when a class vote is required by the 1940 Act. A change
in  investment  policy for a series  would,  for example,  be voted upon only by
shareholders of the series  involved.  Additionally,  approval of the investment
advisory  agreement  is a matter to be  determined  separately  by each  series.
Approval  by the  shareholders  of one  series is  effective  as to that  series
whether or not enough  votes are  received  from the  shareholders  of the other
series to approve such agreement as to the other series.

The Declaration of Trust provides that  obligations of the Trust are not binding
upon the Trustees individually but only upon the property of the Trust, that the
Trustees and  officers  will not be liable for errors of judgment or mistakes of
fact or law, and that the Trust will indemnify its Trustees and officers against
liabilities  and expenses  incurred in connection  with litigation in which they
may be  involved  because  of their  offices  with the  Trust,  except  if it is
determined,  in the manner provided in the Declaration of Trust,  that they have
not acted in good faith in the reasonable  belief that their actions were in the
best  interests  of the  Trust.  However,  nothing in the  Declaration  of Trust
protects or  indemnifies a Trustee or officer  against any liability to which he
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
office.

The Fund is not  required  to and  does  not  currently  intend  to hold  annual
shareholder meetings,  although special meetings may be called for purposes such
as electing or removing Trustees,  changing fundamental  investment policies, or
approving certain contracts. Shareholders will be assisted in communicating with
other  shareholders in connection with removing a Trustee as if Section 16(c) of
the 1940 Act were applicable.

* For the fiscal year ended  December  31,  1998,  each  non-interested  Trustee
received an annual fee of $500 plus  reimbursement for  out-of-pocket  expenses.
During such fiscal year the Trust was comprised of three series:  Weiss Treasury
Only Money Market Fund, Weiss Intermediate Treasury Fund and Weiss Treasury Bond
Fund,  the  latter  of which had not  commenced  operations  and has since  been
redesignated as the Fund. On January 31, 1998, Weiss Intermediate  Treasury Fund
was dissolved and liquidated.  For the fiscal year ended December 31, 1999, each
non-interested  Trustee will receive an annual fee of $2,000 plus  reimbursement
for out-of-pocket expenses for serving in that capacity.


**  Mr. Marky replaced Neal J. Andrews who resigned as Treasurer of the Trust
    effective April 30, 1998.

         INVESTMENT ADVISORY AND OTHER SERVICES

         Investment Manager

As stated in the Prospectus,  the Trust, on behalf of the Fund, has entered into
an Investment Advisory Agreement with the Manager, Weiss Money Management,  Inc.
Under  the  Advisory  Agreement,  the  Manager  provides  continuing  investment
management  for the  Fund  consistent  with  the  Fund's  investment  objective,
policies and  restrictions and determines what securities shall be purchased for
or sold by the Fund.  The Manager is controlled  (as that term is defined in the
1940 Act) by Martin D. Weiss, its sole director and shareholder.

The Fund has agreed to  compensate  the Manager for its  services by the monthly
payment of a fee at the annual rate of 1.50% of the Fund's average net assets.

The Manager is  responsible  for fees and  expenses of  Trustees,  officers  and
employees  of the  Trust  who are  affiliated  with  the  Manager.  The  Fund is
responsible for all of its other expenses,  including fees and expenses incurred
in connection  with  membership in investment  company  organizations;  brokers'
commissions; payments for portfolio pricing services to a pricing agent, if any;
legal,  auditing and accounting expenses;  taxes and governmental fees; transfer
agent fees;  the cost of preparing  share  certificates  or other  share-related
expenses, such as expenses of issuance, sale, redemption or repurchase of shares
of beneficial  interest;  the expenses of and fees for registering or qualifying
securities for sale;  the fees and expenses of Trustees,  officers and employees
of the Trust who are not affiliated  with the Manager;  the cost of printing and
distributing reports and notices to shareholders; and the fees and disbursements
of custodians. The Fund is also responsible for expenses of shareholder meetings
and expenses  incurred in connection with litigation  proceedings and claims and
the legal  obligation  it may have to indemnify  its officers and Trustees  with
respect thereto.

         Sub-Adviser


Harvest Advisors,  Inc., 11612 Bee Cave Road, Suite 110, Austin, Texas 78733 has
been retained by the Manager to provide sub-advisory services to the Fund. Under
its agreement with the Manager,  the Sub-Adviser  renders continuous  investment
advice to the Manager with respect to investment and  reinvestment of the Fund's
assets  in  various  securities,  based  upon  computer  models  constructed  in
accordance  with the Fund's  investment  objective  and policies;  however,  the
Manager,  in  the  exercise  of  its  independent  judgment,   retains  ultimate
discretion  regarding and  responsibility for the implementation of transactions
in seeking to achieve the Fund's objective.  The Manager pays the Sub-Adviser as
compensation for Sub-Adviser's  services to the Fund, a quarterly fee in arrears
at the rate of 10% of all fees  payable  during the same  quarter by the Fund to
the Adviser for investment  advisory  services provided pursuant to the Advisory
Agreement,  net of any fee waivers or expense reimbursements made by the Adviser
with  respect  to the  Fund  relating  to such  quarter.  The  Manager  pays the
Sub-Adviser  this quarterly fee out of the investment  advisory fees it receives
from the Fund.  The  Sub-Adviser  is controlled  (as that term is defined in the
1940 Act) by Anthony L. Sagami, its sole shareholder and officer.


         Distributor

The Fund's shares are sold on a  continuous,  best efforts basis by Weiss Funds,
Inc. (the "Distributor"),  4176 Burns Road, Palm Beach Gardens, Florida 33410, a
registered broker-dealer and wholly-owned subsidiary of the Manager.

Rule 12b-1 Distribution Plan

The Trust has adopted on behalf of the Fund, in accordance with Rule 12b-1 under
the 1940 Act, a Rule 12b-1  distribution  plan  pertaining to the Fund's Class S
shares (the  "Plan").  In  adopting  the Plan,  a majority of the  "independent"
Trustees have concluded in accordance  with the  requirements of Rule 12b-1 that
there is a  reasonable  likelihood  that the Plan will  benefit the Fund and its
shareholders.  The Trustees of the Trust  believe that the Plan should result in
greater  sales and/or fewer  redemptions  of the Fund's  shares,  although it is
impossible to know for certain the level of sales and  redemptions of the Fund's
shares  in  the  absence  of the  Plan  or  under  an  alternative  distribution
arrangement.

Under the Plan, the Fund pays the Distributor a fee relating to the distribution
and/or service of the Fund's Class S shares,  accrued daily and paid monthly, at
the annual rate of 0.25% of the average daily net assets  attributable  to those
Class S shares.  The  Distributor may reallow to dealers all or a portion of the
service and  distribution  fees as the  Distributor  may determine  from time to
time. The fee compensates  the  Distributor for expenses  incurred in connection
with activities  primarily  intended to result in the sale of the Fund's Class S
shares  and/or for account  maintenance  and personal  service to  shareholders,
including,  but not limited to, compensation to broker-dealers that have entered
into a dealer and/or  shareholder or administrative  services agreement with the
Distributor;  compensation  to and expenses of employees of the  Distributor who
engage in or support distribution and/or shareholder servicing of a Fund's Class
S shares; compensation to banks, investment advisers, financial institutions and
other  entities   (including  the  Distributor  itself)  for  rendering  certain
shareholder liaison and/or administrative services; telephone expenses; interest
expenses;   printing  of  prospectuses  and  reports  for  other  than  existing
shareholders;  preparation,  printing and  distribution of sales  literature and
advertising  materials;  and profit on the  foregoing.  Pursuant  to the Class S
Plan, the Distributor may include interest, carrying or other finance charges in
its  calculation  of  distribution  expenses,  if not  prohibited  from doing so
pursuant to an order of or a regulation adopted by the SEC.

Among other things,  the Plan provides that (1) the  Distributor  will submit to
the Board at least  quarterly,  and the Trustees  will review,  written  reports
regarding  all amounts  expended  under the Plan and the purposes for which such
expenditures  were made;  (2) the Plan will  continue  in effect only so long as
such  continuance  is approved at least  annually,  and any  material  amendment
thereto is  approved  by the votes of a majority  of the  Board,  including  the
"independent" Trustees, cast in person at a meeting called for that purpose; (3)
payments by the Fund under the Plan shall not be  materially  increased  without
the affirmative  vote of the holders of a majority of the outstanding  shares of
Class S of the Fund;  and (4) while the Plan is in  effect,  the  selection  and
nomination of "independent" Trustees shall be committed to the discretion of the
Trustees who are not "interested persons" of the Trust.

The Plan may be terminated at any time, without payment of any penalty,  by vote
of a majority  of the  "independent"  Trustees,  or by vote of a majority of the
outstanding voting securities of Class S of the Fund.

         Administrator


PFPC Inc.,  Bellevue Park Corporate Center,  103 Bellevue  Parkway,  Wilmington,
Delaware 19809 ("PFPC"), performs various administrative and accounting services
for  the  Fund.  These  services  include  maintenance  of  books  and  records,
preparation  of  certain   governmental  filings  and  shareholder  reports  and
computation   of  net  asset   values  and  dividend   distributions.   For  its
administrative  services,  PFPC receives a fee, payable monthly,  based upon the
following:  .10% of the first $200  million of average net assets;  .075% of the
next $200  million  of  average  net  assets;  .05% of the next $200  million of
average  net assets;  and .03% of average net assets in excess of $600  million,
plus any out-of-pocket expenses.


         Transfer Agent, Dividend Disbursing Agent and Custodian

PFPC  serves  as the  Fund's  transfer  agent,  dividend  disbursing  agent  and
registrar.

PFPC Trust Company, 400 Bellevue Parkway, Wilmington,  Delaware 19899, serves as
custodian for the Fund's portfolio securities and cash.

         PERFORMANCE INFORMATION

From time to time,  quotations  of the Fund's  performance  may be  included  in
advertisements,  sales  literature  or reports to  shareholders  or  prospective
investors.  Performance information will be calculated separately for each class
of the Fund.  Different  fees and  expenses  applicable  to each of the classes,
including  Rule  12b-1  fees  applicable  to Class S  shares,  will  affect  the
performance  of those  classes.  The  performance  figures are calculated in the
following manners:

         Average Annual Total Return

Average  annual total return is the average  annual  compound rate of return for
periods of one year, five years,  and ten years,  all ended on the last day of a
recent calendar quarter.  Average annual total return quotations reflect changes
in the price of the Fund's  shares and assume  that all  dividends  and  capital
gains distributions  during the respective periods were reinvested in additional
shares of the same class of the Fund. Average annual total return for the Fund's
Class A and Class S shares is calculated by finding the average annual  compound
rates of return of a hypothetical  investment over such periods according to the
following   formula  (average  annual  total  return  is  then  expressed  as  a
percentage):

                        T = (ERV/P)1/n - 1
         Where:

      P        =       a hypothetical initial investment of $1,000,
                       adjusted to deduct the applicable sales charge for Class
                       A shares.

      T        =       average annual total return.

      n        =       number of years.

      ERV      =       ending redeemable value:

      ERV  is the value, at the end of the applicable period, of a hypothetical
           $1,000 investment made at the beginning of the applicable period.

The  Fund  may,  from  time to  time,  include  in  advertisements,  promotional
literature or reports to shareholders or prospective investors total return data
that  are  not   calculated   according   to  the   formula   set  forth   above
("Non-Standardized  Return").  With respect to Class A shares, sales charges are
not taken into account in calculating  Non-Standardized  Return; a sales charge,
if deducted, would reduce the return.

         Cumulative Total Return

Cumulative  total  return is the  cumulative  rate of  return on a  hypothetical
initial  investment of $1,000 for a specified  period.  Cumulative  total return
quotations reflect changes in the price of the Fund's shares and assume that all
dividends and capital gains  distributions  during the period were reinvested in
additional shares of the same class of the Fund. Cumulative total return for the
Fund's Class A shares is calculated by finding the cumulative rates of return of
a hypothetical  investment over such periods  according to the following formula
(cumulative total return is then expressed as a percentage):

                    C = (ERV/P) - 1
         Where:

        C =  Cumulative Total Return adjusted to deduct the applicable sales
             charge for Class A shares.

        P =  a hypothetical initial investment of $1,000.

      ERV =  ending redeemable value:

    ERV is the value, at the end of the applicable period, of a hypothetical
        $1,000 investment made at the beginning of the applicable period.

         Total Return

Total Return is the rate of return on an  investment  for a specified  period of
time calculated in the same manner as cumulative total return.

         Capital Change

Capital change measures the return from invested  capital  including  reinvested
capital gains distributions. Capital change does not include the reinvestment of
income dividends.

         Comparison of Portfolio Performance

A  comparison  of  the  quoted  non-standard  performance  offered  for  various
investments is valid only if performance is calculated in the same manner. Since
there  are  different  methods  of  calculating  performance,  investors  should
consider the effects of the methods used to calculate performance when comparing
performance of the Fund with performance quoted with respect to other investment
companies or types of investments.

In connection  with  communicating  its  performance  to current or  prospective
shareholders,  the Fund also may compare  these  figures to the  performance  of
unmanaged  indices  which may assume  reinvestment  of dividends or interest but
generally do not reflect  deductions for  administrative  and management  costs.
Examples include,  but are not limited to the Dow Jones Industrial Average,  the
Consumer  Price Index,  Standard & Poor's 500  Composite  Stock Price Index (S&P
500), the NASDAQ OTC Composite Index, the NASDAQ  Industrials Index, the Russell
2000 Index, and the statistics published by the Small Business Administration.

From  time  to  time,  in  advertising  and  marketing  literature,  the  Fund's
performance  may be compared to the  performance of broad groups of mutual funds
with similar investment goals, as tracked by independent  organizations such as,
Investment  Company  Data,  Inc.  ("ICD"),   Lipper  Analytical  Services,  Inc.
("Lipper"), CDA Investment Technologies,  Inc. ("CDA"), Morningstar, Inc., Value
Line  Mutual  Fund  Survey  and  other  independent  organizations.  When  these
organizations'  tracking  results  are used,  the Fund will be  compared  to the
appropriate fund category, that is, by fund objective and portfolio holdings, or
to the  appropriate  volatility  grouping,  where  volatility  is a measure of a
fund's risk.

From time to time, in marketing and other Fund literature, Trustees and officers
of the  Fund,  the  Fund's  portfolio  manager,  or  members  of  the  portfolio
management  team may be  depicted  and quoted to give  prospective  and  current
shareholders  a better sense of the outlook and approach of those who manage the
Fund. In addition,  the assets that the Manager has under  management in various
geographical areas may be quoted in advertising and marketing materials.

Statistical  and  other   information,   as  provided  by  the  Social  Security
Administration,  may be used in marketing  materials  pertaining  to  retirement
planning  in order to  estimate  future  payouts  of social  security  benefits.
Estimates may be used on demographic and economic data.

Marketing and other Fund  literature  may include a description of the potential
risks and rewards associated with an investment in the Fund. The description may
include a "risk/return spectrum" which compares the Fund to other Weiss funds or
broad categories of funds, such as money market,  bond or equity funds, in terms
of potential  risks and  returns.  Money market funds are designed to maintain a
constant $1.00 share price and have a fluctuating  yield. Share price, yield and
total  return of a bond fund will  fluctuate.  The share  price and return of an
equity fund also will  fluctuate.  The  description may also compare the Fund to
bank  products,   such  as  certificates   of  deposit.   Unlike  mutual  funds,
certificates of deposit are insured up to $100,000 by the U.S.
Government and offer a fixed rate of return.

Because bank products  guarantee the principal  value of an investment and money
market funds seek stability of principal, these investments are considered to be
less risky than  investments  in either bond or equity funds,  which may involve
the loss of principal. However, all long-term investments, including investments
in bank products, may be subject to inflation risk, which is the risk of erosion
of the value of an  investment as prices  increase over a long time period.  The
risk/returns  associated  with an  investment  in bond or equity funds also will
depend upon currency exchange fluctuation.

A risk/return spectrum generally will position the various investment categories
in the following order: bank products, money market funds, bond funds and equity
funds. Shorter-term bond funds generally are considered less risky and offer the
potential  for less return  than  longer-term  bond  funds.  The same is true of
domestic bond funds relative to  international  bond funds,  and bond funds that
purchase  higher quality  securities  relative to bond funds that purchase lower
quality securities.  Growth and income equity funds are generally  considered to
be less risky and offer the  potential  for less return than  growth  funds.  In
addition,  international  equity funds  usually are  considered  more risky than
domestic equity funds but generally offer the potential for greater return.

Risk/return  spectrums  also may depict  funds that invest in both  domestic and
foreign securities or a combination of bond and equity securities.

Evaluation of Fund performance  made by independent  sources may also be used in
advertisements  concerning the Fund,  including reprints of, or selections from,
editorials or articles about the Fund.

         BUYING SHARES

Share  purchases are executed at the net asset value next  calculated,  less any
applicable  front-end sales charge for Class A shares, after a purchase order is
received by the Fund's  transfer agent in good order as described under "Opening
an Account" and "Adding to Your Investment" in the Fund's Class A Prospectus and
"Buying Shares" in the Fund's Class S Prospectus. Purchases are made in full and
fractional shares.

With respect to the Fund's Class A shares,  a front-end sales charge of 1.50% is
assessed on purchases  of Fund shares,  subject to a maximum of $75 per account.
Broker-dealers  other than the  Distributor  may assess  additional  transaction
charges in connection with purchases of the Fund's Class A shares. The front-end
sales charge may be waived in connection with certain  purchases as described in
the Fund's  Class A Prospectus  under  "Opening an Account - Waiver of Front-End
Sales Charge."

With respect to the Fund's Class S shares,  broker-dealers  or institutions  may
assess  additional  transaction  charges in  connection  with  purchases of Fund
shares.

Individual Retirement Accounts ("IRAs"), Roth IRAs and Education IRAs. Shares of
the Trust may be used as a funding medium for retirement plans,  including IRAs,
Roth IRAs and Education  IRAs.  Eligible  individuals may establish an IRA, Roth
IRA or Education IRA by adopting a custodial  account  available  from PNC Bank,
National  Association,  which  may  impose  a  charge  for  establishing  and/or
maintaining the account.

         REDEMPTIONS

The Trust may  suspend  the  right of  redemption  of shares of the Fund and may
postpone  payment:  (i) for any period during which the New York Stock  Exchange
(the "Exchange") is closed,  other than customary  weekend and holiday closings,
or  during  which  trading  on the  Exchange  is  restricted,  (ii) when the SEC
determines  that a state of emergency  exists which may make payment or transfer
not  reasonably  practicable,  (iii)  as the SEC  may by  order  permit  for the
protection of the  Shareholders of the Trust, or (iv) at any other time when the
Trust  may,  under  applicable  laws and  regulations,  suspend  payment  on the
redemption of its shares.

The Trust agrees to redeem shares of the Fund solely in cash up to the lesser of
$250,000 or 1% of the net asset  value of the Fund during any 90-day  period for
any one  shareholder.  The Trust  reserves  the right to pay other  redemptions,
either total or partial,  by a  distribution  in kind of securities  (instead of
cash) from the Fund's portfolio,  although the Trust has no current intention to
do so. The securities  distributed in such a distribution would be valued at the
same value as that  assigned to them in  calculating  the net asset value of the
shares being redeemed.  If a shareholder  receives a distribution in kind, he or
she  should  expect  to incur  transaction  costs  when he or she  converts  the
securities to cash.

         DIVIDENDS AND DISTRIBUTIONS

The Fund intends to  distribute  to  shareholders  substantially  all of its net
investment  income annually.  Net investment income for the Fund consists of all
income accrued on the Fund's assets,  less all actual and accrued expenses.  The
Fund intends to  distribute  to  shareholders  net realized  capital gains after
utilization of capital loss carryforwards, if any, at least annually.

Distributions  by the Fund are  reinvested in  additional  shares of the Fund or
paid in cash at the  election of the  shareholder.  If no election is made,  all
distributions  will be reinvested in additional Fund shares. If an investment is
in the form of a retirement plan, all dividends and capital gains  distributions
must be reinvested into the shareholder's  account.  Distributions are generally
taxable, whether received in cash or reinvested. Exchanges among the Weiss funds
are also taxable events.

         TAXES

The  following  is a general  discussion  of  certain  tax rules  thought  to be
applicable  with  respect  to the Fund.  It is  merely a  summary  and is not an
exhaustive   discussion  of  all  possible  situations  or  of  all  potentially
applicable taxes. Accordingly,  shareholders and prospective shareholders should
consult a competent tax adviser about the tax  consequences to them of investing
in the Fund.

General.  The Fund  intends  to  qualify  annually  and elect to be treated as a
regulated  investment  company under  Subchapter M of the Code. To qualify,  the
Fund must,  among other things,  (a) derive in each taxable year at least 90% of
its gross income from dividends,  interest,  payments with respect to securities
loans, gains from the sale or other disposition of stock, securities, or foreign
currencies,  or other income  (including  but not limited to gains from options,
futures,  and  forward  contracts)  derived  with  respect  to its  business  of
investing  in such  stock,  securities  or  currencies;  and (b)  diversify  its
holdings  so that,  at the end of each fiscal  quarter,  (i) at least 50% of the
market  value of the  Fund's  assets is  represented  by cash,  U.S.  Government
securities,  the securities of other regulated investment  companies,  and other
securities, with such other securities of any one issuer limited for purposes of
this  calculation  to an amount not greater than 5% of the Fund's assets and 10%
of the outstanding  voting securities of such issuer, and (ii) not more than 25%
of the value of its total assets is invested in  securities  of any other issuer
(other than U.S.  Government  securities and the  securities of other  regulated
investment companies).

As a regulated  investment  company,  the Fund  generally will not be subject to
U.S.  Federal  income  tax on  its  investment  company  taxable  income  (which
includes,  among other items,  dividends,  interest and net  short-term  capital
gains in excess of net  long-term  capital  losses) and net  capital  gains (net
long-term  capital  gains in excess of net  short-term  capital  losses) that it
distributes to shareholders,  if at least 90% of its investment  company taxable
income for the taxable year is distributed.  The Fund intends to distribute such
income.

Amounts not  distributed  on a timely basis in  accordance  with a calendar year
distribution  requirement are subject to a nondeductible 4% excise tax. To avoid
that tax, the Fund must distribute  during each calendar year an amount equal to
(1) at least 98% of its  ordinary  income (not  taking into  account any capital
gains or losses) for the calendar year, (2) at least 98% of its capital gains in
excess of its capital  losses  (adjusted  for certain  ordinary  losses) for the
twelve-month  period  ending on October  31 of the  calendar  year,  and (3) all
ordinary  income and capital gains for previous years that were not  distributed
during such years. A distribution  will be treated as paid on December 31 of the
current  calendar  year if it is declared  by the Fund in  October,  November or
December of that year to shareholders of record at some date in such a month and
paid  by  the  Fund  during  January  of  the  following   calendar  year.  Such
distributions  will be taken into account by  shareholders  in the calendar year
the  distributions  are  declared,  rather than the  calendar  year in which the
distributions are received.

Distributions. Distributions of investment company taxable income are taxable to
a U.S.  shareholder  as  ordinary  income,  whether  paid  in  cash  or  shares.
Distributions of net capital gains, if any, which are designated as capital gain
dividends are taxable to shareholders as long-term  capital gains,  whether paid
in cash or in shares,  and regardless of how long the  shareholder  has held the
Fund's shares.  Such  distributions are not eligible for the dividends  received
deduction.  The tax treatment of distributions from the Fund is the same whether
the  dividends  are  received  in cash  or in  additional  shares.  Shareholders
receiving  distributions  in the form of newly  issued  shares  will have a cost
basis in each share received equal to the net asset value of a share of the Fund
on the  reinvestment  date. A distribution  of an amount in excess of the Fund's
current and accumulated earnings and profits will be treated by a shareholder as
a return of capital which is applied against and reduces the shareholder's basis
in his or her  shares.  To the extent  that the amount of any such  distribution
exceeds the shareholder's basis in his or her shares, the excess will be treated
by the  shareholder as gain from a sale or exchange of the shares.  Shareholders
will be notified annually as to the U.S. Federal tax status of distributions and
shareholders  receiving  distributions  in the form of newly issued  shares will
receive a report as to the net asset value of the shares received.

If shares of the Fund are held in a tax-deferred retirement plan account, income
and gain will not be taxable each year. Instead,  the taxable portion of amounts
held in a  retirement  plan account  generally  will be subject to tax only when
distributed from that account,  and all of those taxable amounts will be taxable
as ordinary income.

If the net asset  value of shares is  reduced  below a  shareholder's  cost as a
result of a distribution  by the Fund,  such  distribution  will be taxable even
though it represents a return of invested  capital.  Investors should be careful
to consider the tax  implications of buying shares just prior to a distribution.
The  price of  shares  purchased  at this  time may  reflect  the  amount of the
forthcoming  distribution.  Those  purchasing just prior to a distribution  will
receive a distribution which will nevertheless be taxable to them.

Disposition of Shares. Upon a redemption, sale or exchange of his or her shares,
a  shareholder  will  realize a taxable gain or loss  depending  upon his or her
basis in the shares.  Such gain or loss will be treated as capital  gain or loss
if the shares are capital assets in the shareholder's  hands and, if so, will be
long-term or short-term, depending upon the shareholder's holding period for the
shares.  Any loss realized on a redemption,  sale or exchange will be disallowed
to  the  extent  the  shares  disposed  of  are  replaced   (including   through
reinvestment  of dividends)  within a period of 61 days beginning 30 days before
and ending 30 days after the shares are disposed  of. In such a case,  the basis
of the shares acquired will be adjusted to reflect the disallowed loss. Any loss
realized by a shareholder on the sale of Fund shares held by the shareholder for
six months or less will be treated as a long-term  capital loss to the extent of
any  distributions  of net  capital  gains  received  or treated as having  been
received by the shareholder with respect to such shares.

Discount.  Certain  of the bonds  purchased  by the Fund may be treated as bonds
that were originally  issued at a discount.  Original issue discount  represents
interest for Federal  income tax  purposes  and can  generally be defined as the
difference  between  the price at which a  security  was  issued  and its stated
redemption  price at maturity.  Original  issue  discount is treated for Federal
income tax  purposes as income  earned by the Fund even though the Fund  doesn't
actually  receive  any  cash,  and  therefore  is  subject  to the  distribution
requirements  of the Code.  The amount of income earned by the Fund generally is
determined on the basis of a constant yield to maturity which takes into account
the semiannual compounding of accrued interest.

In addition,  some of the bonds may be purchased by the Fund at a discount which
exceeds the  original  issue  discount on such bonds,  if any.  This  additional
discount  represents  market discount for Federal income tax purposes.  The gain
realized on the  disposition of any bond having market  discount will be treated
as ordinary  income to the extent it does not exceed the accrued market discount
on such bond (unless the Fund elects for all its debt securities  acquired after
the first day of the first taxable year to which the election  applies  having a
fixed  maturity  date of more  than one year  from the date of issue to  include
market discount in income in tax years to which it is attributable).  Generally,
market  discount  accrues on a daily  basis for each day the bond is held by the
Fund at a constant rate over the time remaining to the bond's maturity.

Hedging  Transactions.  The  taxation  of equity  options  and  over-the-counter
options on debt  securities is governed by Code section  1234.  Pursuant to Code
section 1234, the premium  received by the Fund for selling a put or call option
is not  included in income at the time of receipt.  If the option  expires,  the
premium  is  short-term  capital  gain to the Fund.  If the Fund  enters  into a
closing  transaction,  the  difference  between the amount paid to close out its
position and the premium received is short-term  capital gain or loss. If a call
option written by the Fund is exercised,  thereby requiring the Fund to sell the
underlying security, the premium will increase the amount realized upon the sale
of such security and any resulting  gain or loss will be a capital gain or loss,
and will be long-term or  short-term  depending  upon the holding  period of the
security. With respect to a put or call option that is purchased by the Fund, if
the option is sold,  any resulting  gain or loss will be a capital gain or loss,
and will be long-term or  short-term,  depending  upon the holding period of the
option.  If the option  expires,  the  resulting  loss is a capital  loss and is
long-term or short-term, depending upon the holding period of the option. If the
option is exercised,  the cost of the option,  in the case of a call option,  is
added to the basis of the  purchased  security and, in the case of a put option,
reduces the amount  realized on the underlying  security in determining  gain or
loss.

Certain options and futures  contracts in which the Fund may invest are "section
1256  contracts."  Gains or losses  on  section  1256  contracts  generally  are
considered  60% long-term  and 40%  short-term  capital  gains or losses.  Also,
section  1256  contracts  held by the Fund at the end of each taxable year (and,
generally,  for  purposes  of the 4% excise tax, on October 31 of each year) are
"marked-to-market" (that is, treated as sold at fair market value), resulting in
unrealized gains or losses being treated as though they were realized.

Generally,  the  hedging  transactions  undertaken  by the  Fund may  result  in
"straddles" for U.S. federal income tax purposes.  The straddle rules may affect
the  character of gains (or losses)  realized by the Fund.  In addition,  losses
realized by the Fund on  positions  that are part of a straddle  may be deferred
under the straddle  rules,  rather than being taken into account in  calculating
the  taxable  income for the  taxable  year in which the  losses  are  realized.
Because  only a few  regulations  implementing  the  straddle  rules  have  been
promulgated,   the  tax   consequences  to  the  Fund  of  engaging  in  hedging
transactions  are not  entirely  clear.  Hedging  transactions  may increase the
amount  of  short-term  capital  gain  realized  by the  Fund  which is taxed as
ordinary income when distributed to shareholders.

The Fund may make one or more of the  elections  available  under the Code which
are applicable to straddles. If the Fund makes any of the elections, the amount,
character  and timing of the  recognition  of gains or losses from the  affected
straddle  positions  will be determined  under rules that vary  according to the
election(s)  made.  The rules  applicable  under  certain of the  elections  may
operate to  accelerate  the  recognition  of gains or losses  from the  affected
straddle positions.

Because the straddle  rules may affect the  character of gains or losses,  defer
losses and/or  accelerate  the  recognition of gains or losses from the affected
straddle  positions,  the amount which may be distributed to  shareholders,  and
which will be taxed to them as ordinary income or long-term capital gain, may be
increased or decreased as compared to a fund that did not engage in such hedging
transactions.

Notwithstanding any of the foregoing, the Fund may recognize gain (but not loss)
from a constructive  sale of certain  "appreciated  financial  positions" if the
Fund enters into a short sale, offsetting notional principal contract or forward
contract  transaction with respect to the appreciated  position or substantially
identical property. Appreciated financial positions subject to this constructive
sale treatment are interests  (including options and forward contracts and short
sales)  in  stock,   partnership   interests,   certain  actively  traded  trust
instruments and certain debt  instruments.  Constructive sale treatment does not
apply to certain  transactions  closed in the 90-day period ending with the 30th
day after the close of the taxable year, if certain conditions are met.

Unless certain  constructive  sale rules (discussed more fully above) apply, the
Fund will not realize gain or loss on a short sale of a security until it closes
the transaction by delivering the borrowed  security to the lender.  Pursuant to
Code Section 1233, all or a portion of any gain arising from a short sale may be
treated as short-term capital gain,  regardless of the period for which the Fund
held the security used to close the short sale. In addition,  the Fund's holding
period of any security  which is  substantially  identical to that which is sold
short  may be  reduced  or  eliminated  as a result of the  short  sale.  Recent
legislation,  however,  alters this  treatment by treating  certain  short sales
against the box and other  transactions as a constructive sale of the underlying
security held by the Fund,  thereby  requiring  current  recognition of gain, as
described more fully above.  Similarly,  if the Fund enters into a short sale of
property that becomes substantially  worthless,  the Fund will recognize gain at
that time as though it had closed the short sale.  Future  Treasury  regulations
may apply similar treatment to other  transactions with respect to property that
becomes substantially worthless. Backup Withholding.  The Fund generally will be
required to report to the IRS all  distributions  as well as gross proceeds from
the  redemption  of the  Fund's  shares,  except in the case of  certain  exempt
shareholders. All such distributions and proceeds will be subject to withholding
of Federal  income tax at a rate of 31%  ("backup  withholding")  in the case of
non-exempt  shareholders if (1) the  shareholder  fails to furnish the Fund with
and to certify  the  shareholder's  correct  taxpayer  identification  number or
social  security  number;  (2) the IRS notifies the shareholder or the Fund that
the  shareholder  has failed to report  properly  certain  interest and dividend
income to the IRS and to respond to notices to that effect; or (3) when required
to do so,  the  shareholder  fails to certify  that he or she is not  subject to
backup  withholding.  If the  withholding  provisions are  applicable,  any such
distributions or proceeds,  whether  reinvested in additional shares or taken in
cash, will be reduced by the amounts required to be withheld.

Other Taxation. The foregoing discussion relates only to U.S. Federal income tax
law as  applicable  to U.S.  persons  (i.e.,  U.S.  citizens and  residents  and
domestic corporations,  partnerships,  trusts and estates). Distributions by the
Fund also may be subject to state and local  taxes,  and their  treatment  under
state and local  income tax laws may  differ  from the U.S.  Federal  income tax
treatment. In many states, Fund distributions which are derived from interest on
certain U.S.  Government  obligations  are exempt from state and local taxation.
Shareholders  should  consult  their tax  advisers  with  respect to  particular
questions of U.S.  Federal,  state and local taxation.  Shareholders who are not
U.S.  persons should  consult their tax advisers  regarding U.S. and foreign tax
consequences  of ownership of shares of the Fund,  including the likelihood that
distributions to them would be subject to withholding of U.S. Federal income tax
at a rate of 30% (or at a lower rate under a tax treaty).

         BROKERAGE ALLOCATION

To the  maximum  extent  feasible,  the  Manager  places  orders  for  portfolio
transactions  through the Distributor,  which in turn places orders on behalf of
the Fund with other  broker-dealers.  The  Distributor  receives no commissions,
fees or  other  remuneration  from the Fund  for  this  service.  Allocation  of
brokerage is supervised by the Manager.

The primary objective of the Manager in placing orders for the purchase and sale
of  securities  for the Fund's  portfolio  is to obtain the most  favorable  net
results taking into account such factors as price, commission (negotiable in the
case of U.S. national securities exchange  transactions) where applicable,  size
of  order,   difficulty  of  execution  and  skill  required  of  the  executing
broker-dealer.  The Manager  seeks to evaluate  the  overall  reasonableness  of
brokerage commissions paid (to the extent applicable) through the familiarity of
the Distributor with commissions charged on comparable transactions,  as well as
by  comparing  commissions  paid by the  Fund to  reported  commissions  paid by
others.  The Manager reviews on a routine basis commission rates,  execution and
settlement services performed, making internal and external comparisons.

The Fund's  purchases and sales of fixed-income  securities are generally placed
by the Manager with primary  market makers for these  securities on a net basis,
without any brokerage  commission being paid by the Fund. Trading does, however,
involve  transaction costs.  Transactions with dealers serving as primary market
makers  reflect  the  spread  between  the bid and asked  prices.  Purchases  of
underwritten  issues may be made that will include an  underwriting  fee paid to
the underwriter. Portfolio transactions in debt securities may also be placed on
an agency basis, with a commission being charged.


When it can be done consistently with the policy of obtaining the most favorable
net  results,   it  is  the  Manager's   practice  to  place  such  orders  with
broker-dealers  who supply research,  market and statistical  information to the
Fund. The term "research market and statistical  information" includes advice as
to the value of  securities;  the  advisability  of investing in,  purchasing or
selling  securities;  the availability of securities or purchasers or sellers of
securities; and analyses and reports concerning issuers, industries, securities,
economic factors and trends, portfolio strategy and the performance of accounts.
The Manager does not place orders with brokers or dealers  because the broker or
dealer has or has not sold  shares of the Fund.  In  effecting  transactions  in
over-the-counter securities,  orders are placed with the principal market makers
for the security being traded  unless,  after  exercising  care, it appears that
more favorable results are available elsewhere.

Although   certain   research,   market   and   statistical   information   from
broker-dealers  may be useful to the Fund and to the Manager,  it is the opinion
of the Manager that such  information  only  supplements its own research effort
since the  information  must still be  analyzed,  weighed  and  reviewed  by the
Manager's  staff.  Such  information  may be useful to the Manager in  providing
services to clients other than the Fund and not all such  information is used by
the Manager in connection with the Fund.  Conversely,  such information provided
to the  Manager by  broker-dealers  through  whom other  clients of the  Manager
effect  securities  transactions  may be  useful  to the  Manager  in  providing
services to the Fund.


         NET ASSET VALUE

The net asset value of shares of the Fund is computed as of the close of regular
trading on the New York Stock  Exchange  (currently  4:00 p.m.  Eastern Time) on
each day the  Exchange is open for  trading.  The  Exchange is  scheduled  to be
closed on the following  holidays:  New Year's Day, Dr. Martin Luther King,  Jr.
Day,  Presidents' Day, Good Friday,  Memorial Day,  Independence Day, Labor Day,
Thanksgiving  and Christmas,  and on the preceding  Friday or subsequent  Monday
when one of these  holidays  falls on a Saturday  or Sunday,  respectively.  Net
asset value per share is determined by dividing the value of the total assets of
the Fund, less all liabilities, by the total number of shares outstanding.

Securities  traded on a national  securities  exchange or on the NASDAQ National
Market System are valued at the last  reported sale price that day.  Lacking any
sales, the security is valued at the calculated mean between the most recent bid
quotation and the most recent asked  quotation (the  "Calculated  Mean") on such
exchange.  An exchange  traded  option or futures  contract and other  financial
instruments  are  valued  at the last  reported  sale  price  prior to 4:00 p.m.
(Eastern  Time) as quoted on the  principal  exchange or board of trade on which
such  option or contract  is traded.  Lacking  any sales,  the option or futures
contract is valued at the Calculated Mean.

Debt  securities,  other than  short-term  securities,  are valued at bid prices
supplied by the Fund's  pricing  agent(s) which reflect  broker/dealer  supplied
valuations and electronic data processing techniques. Short-term securities with
remaining maturities of sixty days or less shall be valued by the amortized cost
method, which the Board believes approximates market value.

If, in the opinion of the Fund's Valuation  Committee,  the value of a portfolio
asset as determined in accordance  with these  procedures does not represent the
fair market value of the portfolio  asset,  the value of the portfolio  asset is
taken  to be an  amount  which,  in  the  opinion  of the  Valuation  Committee,
represents  fair market  value on the basis of all  available  information.  The
value of other  portfolio  holdings  owned by the Fund is determined in a manner
which,  in the discretion of the Valuation  Committee most fairly  reflects fair
market value of the property on the valuation date.

           DESCRIPTION OF STANDARD & POOR'S RATINGS GROUP ("S&P") AND
              MOODY'S INVESTORS SERVICE, INC. ("MOODY'S") CORPORATE
                        BOND AND COMMERCIAL PAPER RATINGS

[From "Moody's Bond Record," November 1994 Issue (Moody's Investors Service, New
York,  1994), and "Standard & Poor's Municipal Ratings  Handbook,"  October 1997
Issue (McGraw Hill, New York, 1997).]

MOODY'S:

         (a) CORPORATE  BONDS.  Bonds rated Aaa by Moody's are judged by Moody's
to be of the best  quality,  carrying the smallest  degree of  investment  risk.
Interest  payments are protected by a large or  exceptionally  stable margin and
principal is secure. While the various protective elements are likely to change,
such changes as can be visualized are most unlikely to impair the  fundamentally
strong  position of such  issues.  Bonds rated Aa are judged by Moody's to be of
high quality by all  standards.  Aa bonds are rated lower than Aaa bonds because
margins of protection may not be as large as those of Aaa bonds, or fluctuations
of  protective  elements  may be of  greater  amplitude,  or there  may be other
elements  present which make the  long-term  risks appear  somewhat  larger than
those  applicable to Aaa securities.  Bonds which are rated A by Moody's possess
many  favorable  investment  attributes  and  are  to  be  considered  as  upper
medium-grade obligations.  Factors giving security to principal and interest are
considered adequate,  but elements may be present which suggest a susceptibility
to impairment sometime in the future.  Bonds rated Baa by Moody's are considered
medium-grade  obligations  (i.e.,  they are neither highly  protected nor poorly
secured).  Interest  payments and  principal  security  appear  adequate for the
present,   but   certain   protective   elements   may  be  lacking  or  may  be
characteristically  unreliable  over any great  length of time.  Such bonds lack
outstanding   investment   characteristics   and  in   fact   have   speculative
characteristics as well. Bonds which are rated Ba are judged to have speculative
elements; their future cannot be considered  well-assured.  Often the protection
of interest and  principal  payments  may be very  moderate and thereby not well
safeguarded  during  both good and bad times  over the  future.  Uncertainty  of
position  characterizes  bonds in this class.  Bonds which are rated B generally
lack  characteristics  of the  desirable  investment.  Assurance of interest and
principal  payments of or  maintenance  of other terms of the contract  over any
long  period  of time  may be  small.  Bonds  which  are  rated  Caa are of poor
standing.  Such  issues may be in default  or there may be present  elements  of
danger with respect to principal or interest. Bonds which are rated Ca represent
obligations  which are  speculative  in a high degree.  Such issues are often in
default  or have  other  marked  shortcomings.  Bonds  which are rated C are the
lowest  rated  class of bonds  and  issues so rated  can be  regarded  as having
extremely poor prospects of ever attaining any real investment standing.

         (b) COMMERCIAL PAPER. The Prime rating is the highest  commercial paper
rating assigned by Moody's. Among the factors considered by Moody's in assigning
ratings are the following:  (1) evaluation of the management of the issuer;  (2)
economic  evaluation of the issuer's  industry or industries and an appraisal of
speculative-type risks which may be inherent in certain areas; (3) evaluation of
the issuer's  products in relation to competition and customer  acceptance;  (4)
liquidity;  (5) amount and quality of long-term debt; (6) trend of earnings over
a period of ten  years;  (7)  financial  strength  of a parent  company  and the
relationships  which exist with the issuer; and (8) recognition by management of
obligations  which may be  present  or may arise as a result of public  interest
questions and preparations to meet such  obligations.  Issuers within this Prime
category may be given ratings 1, 2 or 3, depending on the relative  strengths of
these  factors.  The  designation  of  Prime-1  indicates  the  highest  quality
repayment capacity of the rated issue.  Issuers rated Prime-2 are deemed to have
a strong ability for repayment while issuers voted Prime-3 are deemed to have an
acceptable ability for repayment. Issuers rated Not Prime do not fall within any
of the Prime rating categories.

S&P:

         (a)  CORPORATE  BONDS.  An  S&P  corporate  debt  rating  is a  current
assessment  of the  creditworthiness  of an obligor  with  respect to a specific
obligation. The ratings are based on current information furnished by the issuer
or  obtained  by S&P from  other  sources it  considers  reliable.  The  ratings
described  below may be modified by the addition of a plus or minus sign to show
relative standing within the major rating categories.

         Debt rated AAA has the highest rating assigned by S&P.  Capacity to pay
interest and repay principal is extremely strong. Debt rated AA is judged by S&P
to have a very strong  capacity to pay interest and repay  principal and differs
from the highest  rated issues only in small  degree.  Debt rated A by S&P has a
strong  capacity to pay  interest and repay  principal,  although it is somewhat
more susceptible to the adverse effects of changes in circumstances and economic
conditions than debt in higher rated categories.

         Debt rated BBB by S&P is regarded by S&P as having an adequate capacity
to pay  interest  and repay  principal.  Although  such bonds  normally  exhibit
adequate  protection   parameters,   adverse  economic  conditions  or  changing
circumstances are more likely to lead to a weakened capacity to pay interest and
repay principal than debt in higher rated categories.

         Debt rated BB, B, CCC,  CC and C is  regarded  as having  predominately
speculative  characteristics  with respect to capacity to pay interest and repay
principal. BB indicates the least degree of speculation and C the highest. While
such debt will likely have some quality and  protective  characteristics,  these
are outweighed by large uncertainties or exposures to adverse  conditions.  Debt
rated BB has less  near-term  vulnerability  to default  than other  speculative
issues.  However,  it faces major ongoing  uncertainties  or exposure to adverse
business,  financial  or  economic  conditions  which  could lead to  inadequate
capacity to meet timely interest and principal payments.  The BB rating category
is also used for debt  subordinated to senior debt that is assigned an actual or
implied BBB-  rating.  Debt rated B has a greater  vulnerability  to default but
currently has the capacity to meet interest  payments and principal  repayments.
Adverse business,  financial, or economic conditions will likely impair capacity
or willingness  to pay interest and repay  principal.  The B rating  category is
also used for debt  subordinated  to senior  debt that is  assigned an actual or
implied  BB  or  BB-  rating.  Debt  rated  CCC  has  a  currently  identifiable
vulnerability to default,  and is dependent upon favorable business,  financial,
and economic  conditions  to meet timely  payment of interest  and  repayment of
principal.  In the event of adverse business,  financial or economic conditions,
it is not likely to have the capacity to pay interest and repay  principal.  The
CCC rating  category is also used for debt  subordinated  to senior debt that is
assigned an actual or implied B or B- rating. The rating CC typically is applied
to debt  subordinated  to senior debt which is assigned an actual or implied CCC
debt rating.  The rating C typically is applied to debt  subordinated  to senior
debt which is assigned an actual or implied CCC- debt  rating.  The C rating may
be used to cover a situation  where a bankruptcy  petition  has been filed,  but
debt service payments are continued.

         The rating CI is  reserved  for income  bonds on which no  interest  is
being paid.  Debt rated D is in payment  default.  The D rating category is used
when interest payments or principal  payments are not made on the date due, even
if the  applicable  grace period has not expired,  unless S&P believes that such
payments will be made during such grace  period.  The D rating also will be used
upon  the  filing  of  a  bankruptcy  petition  if  debt  service  payments  are
jeopardized.

         (b)  COMMERCIAL  PAPER.  An S&P  commercial  paper  rating is a current
assessment of the likelihood of timely payment of debt considered  short-term in
the relevant market.

         The  commercial  paper rating A-1 by S&P  indicates  that the degree of
safety  regarding timely payment is strong.  Those issues  determined to possess
extremely  strong  safety  characteristics  are  denoted  with a plus  sign  (+)
designation.  For commercial  paper with an A-2 rating,  the capacity for timely
payment on issues is satisfactory, but not as high as for issues designated A-1.
Issues  rated  A-3 have  adequate  capacity  for  timely  payment,  but are more
vulnerable to the adverse effects of changes in  circumstances  than obligations
carrying higher designations.

         Issues  rated B are  regarded as having only  speculative  capacity for
timely payment.  The C rating is assigned to short-term debt  obligations with a
doubtful capacity for payment.  Debt rated D is in payment default. The D rating
category is used when  interest  payments or principal  payments are not made on
the date due, even if the  applicable  grace period has not expired,  unless S&P
believes such payments will be made during such grace period.

         date of  organization  to June 28,  1999 other than those  relating  to

We have  audited the  accompanying  statement of assets and  liabilities  of the
Weiss  Millennium  Opportunity  Fund, a series of The Weiss Fund. This financial
statement is the responsibility of the Fund's management.  Our responsibility is
to express an opinion on this financial statement based on our audit.

We conducted our audit in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards.
Those standards  require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable
assurance  about  whether the  statement  of assets and  liabilities  is free of
material  misstatement.  An audit includes examining,  on a test basis, evidence
supporting  the  amounts  and   disclosures  in  the  statement  of  assets  and
liabilities. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and
significant  estimates  made by  management,  as well as evaluating  the overall
financial statement presentation.  We believe that our audit of the statement of
assets and liabilities provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our  opinion,  the  statement  of assets and  liabilities  referred  to above
presents fairly, in all material  respects,  the financial position of the Weiss
Millennium Opportunity Fund, a series of The Weiss Fund, as of June 28, 1999, in

         I,  John N.  Breazeale,  being a duly  elected,  qualified  and  acting
Trustee of Weiss Treasury Fund (the "Trust"),  a business trust formed under the
laws of the  Commonwealth  of  Massachusetts  pursuant to a Declaration of Trust
dated August 10, 1995 (the  "Declaration of Trust"),  DO HEREBY CERTIFY that, by
written consent, the Trustees of the Trust (the "Trustees"),  acting pursuant to
Article  IV,  Section 1 of the  Trust's  By-Laws,  duly  approved,  adopted  and
consented to the following resolutions as actions of the Trustees of the Trust:

         RESOLVED,  that  "Weiss  Treasury  Bond  Fund" be,  and it  hereby  is,
         redesignated  as "Weiss  Millennium  Opportunity  Fund,"  with the Fund
         being subject to all provisions of the Declaration of Trust relating to
         shares of the Trust  generally,  and having the  following  special and
         relative rights;

         FURTHER RESOLVED,  that, pursuant to Section 5.13 of the Declaration of
         Trust, the shares of beneficial interest of the Fund are hereby divided
         into two  classes,  $.01 par  value  per  share,  to be  designated  as
         follows: (i) "Class A" and (ii) "Class S."

         FURTHER RESOLVED, that the number of authorized shares of each class of
         the Fund shall be unlimited. The Fund and each of its classes of shares
         shall be subject to all provisions of the Declaration of Trust relating
         to shares of the Trust generally,  and shall have the following special
         and relative rights:

1.   The Fund  shall be  authorized  to hold cash and invest in  securities  and
     instruments  and use  investment  techniques  as  described  in the Trust's
     registration  statement under the Securities Act of 1933 and the Investment
     Company  Act  of  1940,  as  amended  from  time  to  time   ("Registration
     Statement").  Each share of beneficial interest,  $.01 par value per share,
     of the Fund shall be  redeemable as provided in the  Declaration  of Trust,
     shall  be  entitled  to one vote  (or  fraction  thereof  in  respect  of a
     fractional  share) on matters on which shares of the Fund shall be entitled
     to vote and shall  represent a pro rata  beneficial  interest in the assets
     allocated  to the  Fund.  The  proceeds  of sales of  shares  of the  Fund,
     together with any income and gain thereon,  less any diminution or expenses
     thereof, shall irrevocably belong to the Fund, unless otherwise required by
     law. Each share of the Fund shall be entitled to receive its pro rata share
     of net assets of the Fund upon  liquidation of the Fund. Upon redemption of
     a shareholder's  shares,  or  indemnification  for liabilities  incurred by
     reason of a  shareholder  being or having been a  shareholder  of the Fund,
     such shareholder shall be paid solely out of the property of the Fund.

2.   Shareholders of the Fund shall vote separately as a Series on any matter to
     the extent  required by applicable  federal or state law.  Shareholders  of
     each class of the Fund shall have (i) exclusive  voting rights with respect
     to matters on which the  holders of each such class  shall be  entitled  to
     exclusive voting rights under applicable  federal or state law, and (ii) no
     voting rights with respect to matters on which the holders of another class
     of shares of the Fund (or class  thereof)  shall be entitled  to  exclusive
     voting rights under applicable federal or state law.

3.   The assets and  liabilities  of the Trust existing as of the end of the day
     immediately preceding the date on which the Registration  Statement for the
     Fund becomes  effective  shall be allocated among the Series other than the
     Fund  in  accordance  with  Article  V of the  Declaration  of  Trust,  and
     thereafter the assets and liabilities of the Trust shall be allocated among
     all Series  thereof in  accordance  with  Article V of the  Declaration  of
     Trust, except as provided below:

(a)  Costs  incurred by the Trust on behalf of the Fund in  connection  with the
     organization,  registration and public offering of shares of the Fund shall
     be allocated  to the Fund and shall be amortized by the Fund in  accordance
     with applicable law and generally accepted accounting principles.

                  (b)      The  Trustees  may  from  time to time in  particular
                           cases  make   specific   allocations   of  assets  or
                           liabilities among the Series.

4.                The Trustees (including any successor Trustees) shall have the
                  right at any time and from time to time to  reallocate  assets
                  and expenses,  or to change the  designation of any Series (or
                  class  thereof)  now or  hereafter  created,  or to  otherwise
                  change the special and relative  rights of any such Series (or
                  class),  provided that such change shall not adversely  affect
                  the rights of shareholders of that Series (or class).

5.                The dividends and distributions  with respect to each class of
                  shares shall be in such amount as may be declared from time to
                  time by the Trust's Board of Trustees in  accordance  with the
                  Declaration of Trust and applicable law.

         FURTHER  RESOLVED,  that the  officers of the Trust be, and they hereby
         are,  authorized  to file an  amendment to the Trust's  Declaration  of
         Trust,  as  amended,   with  the  Secretary  of  the   Commonwealth  of
         Massachusetts,  to change  the name of the Trust from  "Weiss  Treasury
         Fund" to "The Weiss Fund", so that Sections 1.1 and 1.2(p) of Article I
         indicated below read in their entirety as follows:

Section 1.1. Name. The name of the Trust created hereby is "The Weiss Fund."

Section 1.2. (p)  The "Trust" means The Weiss Fund.

         FURTHER  RESOLVED,  that the preceding  resolutions shall constitute an
         Amendment to the  Declaration  of Trust,  effective as of the date that
         the  post-effective  amendment  to the Trust's  Registration  Statement
         applicable to the Fund  described in the following  resolution is filed
         with the  Securities  and  Exchange  Commission  ("SEC"),  and that the
         officers of the Trust be, and they hereby are,  authorized to file such
         Amendment  to  the   Declaration   of  Trust  in  the  offices  of  the
         Commonwealth of Massachusetts.

         IN WITNESS WHEREOF,  I have signed this Amendment this 18th day of May,
1999.

                                   sold, as well as the expenses incurred in the

                                   of  the  Trust  such   periodic  and  special
                                   reports  as  the  Trustees   may   reasonably
                                   request.

                          (d)     The Adviser shall notify the Trust of any
                                   material  change  in  the  management  of the
                                   Adviser  within a reasonable  time after such
                                   change.

                          (e)      The Adviser shall immediately  notify the
                                   Trust in the event that the Adviser or any of
                                   its affiliates:  (1) becomes aware that it is
                                   subject to a statutory  disqualification that
                                   prevents   the   Adviser   from   serving  as
                                   investment    adviser    pursuant   to   this
                                   Agreement;  or (2)  becomes  aware that it is
                                   the subject of an  administrative  proceeding
                                   or  enforcement  action by the Securities and
                                   Exchange   Commission  or  other   regulatory
                                   authority.  The  Adviser  further  agrees  to
                                   notify the Trust  immediately of any material
                                   fact  known  to  the  Adviser  respecting  or
                                   relating to the Adviser that is not contained
                                   in   the   Trust's   Registration   Statement
                                   regarding  the  Trust,  or any  amendment  or
                                   supplement  thereto,  but that is required to
                                   be disclosed  therein,  and of any  statement
                                   contained  therein that becomes untrue in any
                                   material respect.

                  (f)      The services of the Adviser  hereunder are not deemed
                           exclusive  and the  Adviser  shall be free to  render
                           similar  services  to others so long as its  services
                           under this Agreement are not impaired thereby.

         5. Allocation of Charges and Expenses. Except as otherwise specifically
provided in this section 5, the Adviser shall pay the  compensation and expenses
of all trustees,  officers and executive  employees of the Trust  (including the
Fund's share of payroll  taxes) who are affiliated  persons of the Adviser,  and
the Adviser shall make  available,  without expense to the Fund, the services of
such of its directors, officers and employees as may duly be elected officers of
the Trust,  subject to their individual  consent to serve and to any limitations
imposed  by  law.  The  Adviser  shall  provide  at its  expense  the  portfolio
management  services  described  in  section  4  hereof,  other  than  the  cost
(including taxes and brokerage commissions,  if any) of securities purchased for
the Fund.

         The Adviser shall not be required to pay any expenses of the Fund other
than those specifically allocated to it in this section 5.

         6. Management Fee. For all services to be rendered, payments to be made
and costs to be assumed by the  Adviser as  provided in sections 4 and 5 hereof,
the Trust on behalf of the Fund  shall pay the  Adviser  an annual  fee equal to
1.50% of the average daily net assets of the Fund (as defined  below).  Such fee
shall be payable monthly on the last day of each month.

         The  "average  daily net  assets" of the Fund shall mean the average of
the values  placed on the Fund's  net assets as of 4:00 p.m.  (Eastern  time) on
each  day of the  subject  month  on which  the net  asset  value of the Fund is
determined  consistent  with the provisions of Rule 22c-1 under the 1940 Act or,
if the Fund  lawfully  determines  the value of its net  assets as of some other
time on each day, as of such time. The value of the net assets of the Fund shall
always  be  determined  pursuant  to the  applicable  provisions  of  the  Trust
Agreement and the  Registration  Statement.  If the  determination  of net asset
value does not take place for any particular  day, then for the purposes of this
section 6, the value of the net assets of the Fund as last  determined  shall be
deemed to be the value of its net assets as of 4:00 p.m.  (Eastern  time), or as
of such other time as the value of the net assets of the Fund's portfolio may be
lawfully  determined  on that day. If the Fund  determines  the value of the net
assets  of its  portfolio  more  than  once  on any  day,  then  the  last  such
determination  thereof on that day shall be deemed to be the sole  determination
thereof on that day for the purposes of this section 6.

         The  Adviser  may  waive  all or a  portion  of its fees  provided  for
hereunder  and such waiver shall be treated as a reduction in purchase  price of
its services. The Adviser shall be contractually bound hereunder by the terms of
any  publicly  announced  waiver of its fee,  or any  limitation  of the  Fund's
expenses, as if such waiver or limitation were fully set forth herein.

         7.  Avoidance of  Inconsistent  Position;  Services Not  Exclusive.  In
connection with purchases or sales of portfolio securities and other investments
for the  account of the Fund,  neither  the  Adviser  nor any of its  directors,
officers  or  employees  shall  act as a  principal  or  agent  or  receive  any
commission. The Adviser or its agent shall arrange for the placing of all orders
for the purchase and sale of portfolio  securities and other investments for the
Fund's  account  with brokers or dealers  selected by the Adviser in  accordance
with Fund policies as expressed in the Registration  Statement.  If any occasion
should arise in which the Adviser gives any advice to its clients concerning the
Shares of the Fund, the Adviser shall act solely as investment  counsel for such
clients and not in any way on behalf of the Fund.

         The Adviser's  services to the Fund pursuant to this  Agreement are not
be deemed to be  exclusive  and it is  understood  that the  Adviser  may render
investment  advice,  management  and  services to others.  In acting  under this
Agreement,  the Adviser shall be an  independent  contractor and not an agent of
the Trust.

         8.  Limitation  of  Liability  of  Manager.  As an  inducement  to  the
Adviser's  undertaking to render services pursuant to this Agreement,  the Trust
agrees that the Adviser  shall not be liable under this  Agreement for any error
of judgment or mistake of law or for any loss suffered by the Fund in connection
with the matters to which this Agreement relates,  provided that nothing in this
Agreement  shall be deemed to protect or purport to protect the Adviser  against
any liability to the Trust,  the Fund or its  shareholders  to which the Adviser
would otherwise be subject by reason of willful misfeasance,  bad faith or gross
negligence  in the  performance  of its  duties,  or by reason  of its  reckless
disregard of its obligations and duties hereunder.  Any person, even though also
employed  by the  Adviser,  who may be or become an  employee of and paid by the
Fund shall be deemed when acting  within the scope of his or her  employment  by
the Fund,  to be acting in such  employment  solely  for the Fund and not as the
Adviser's employee or agent.

         9. Duration and  Termination of This  Agreement.  This Agreement  shall
remain in force  until June 29,  2001,  and  continue in force from year to year
thereafter,  but only so long as such  continuance is  specifically  approved at
least annually (a) by the vote of a majority of the Trustees who are not parties
to this Agreement or interested persons of any party to this agreement,  cast in
person at a meeting called for the purpose of voting on such approval and (b) by
the  Trustees  of the  Trust,  or by the vote of a majority  of the  outstanding
voting  securities of the Fund. The aforesaid  requirement  that  continuance of
this Agreement be  "specifically  approved at least annually" shall be construed
in a  manner  consistent  with  the  1940  Act and  the  rules  and  regulations
thereunder.

         This Agreement may be terminated  with respect to the Fund at any time,
without the payment of any penalty, by the vote of a majority of the outstanding
voting  securities  of the Fund or by the Trust's  Board of Trustees on 60 days'
written  notice to the Adviser,  or by the Adviser on 60 days' written notice to
the Fund.
This Agreement shall terminate automatically in the event of its assignment.

         10.  Retention of  Sub-Advisers.  Subject to the Fund's  obtaining  any
initial and periodic  approvals  that are required  under Section 15 of the 1940
Act, the Adviser may retain a sub-adviser  or  sub-advisers  with respect to the
Fund, at the Adviser's own cost and expense.

         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  signed by the party  against whom  enforcement  of the change,  waiver,
discharge or termination is sought,  and no amendment of this Agreement shall be
effective  until  approved by the vote of a majority of the Trustees who are not
parties to this Agreement or interested  persons of any party to this Agreement,
cast in person at a meeting called for the purpose of voting on such approval.

         12.  Miscellaneous.  The  captions in this  Agreement  are included for
convenience  of  reference  only  and  in no  way  define  or  limit  any of the
provisions  hereof or  otherwise  affect  their  construction  or  effect.  This
Agreement may be executed  simultaneously in two or more  counterparts,  each of
which shall be deemed an original,  but all of which together  shall  constitute
one and the same instrument.

         In  interpreting  the  provisions of this  Agreement,  the  definitions
contained  in Section  2(a) of the 1940 Act  (particularly  the  definitions  of
"affiliated  person,"  "assignment"  and  "majority  of the  outstanding  voting
securities"),  as from time to time amended, shall be applied, subject, however,
to such  exemptions  as may be  granted  by the SEC by any rule,  regulation  or
order.

         This  Agreement  shall be construed in accordance  with the laws of the
Commonwealth of  Massachusetts,  provided that nothing herein shall be construed
in a manner inconsistent with the 1940 Act, or in a manner which would cause the
Fund to fail to comply with the requirements of Subchapter M of the Code.

         It is  understood  that the Fund is a series  of the  Trust,  which was
organized as a Massachusetts business trust under the Trust Agreement,  that the
Trust  Agreement  refers to the  Trustees  collectively  as trustees  and not as
individuals   personally,   and  that  the  Trust  Agreement  provides  that  no
shareholder,  Trustee, officer, employee or agent shall be subject to any claims
against or obligations of the Trust to any extent whatsoever, but that the Trust
estate  only  shall be  liable.  No series of the Trust  shall be liable for the
obligations of any other series.

         This  Agreement  shall  supersede  all  prior  investment  advisory  or
management agreements entered into between the Adviser and the Fund.

IN WITNESS  WHEREOF,  the  parties  hereto have  caused  this  instrument  to be
executed as of the day and year first above written.

                              SUBADVISORY AGREEMENT


         AGREEMENT  made as of the 29th day of June,  1999,  between WEISS MONEY
MANAGEMENT,   INC.,  4176  Burns  Road,   Palm  Beach  Gardens,   Florida  33410
(hereinafter called the "Manager"),  and HARVEST ADVISORS,  INC., 11612 Bee Cave
Road, Suite 110, Austin, Texas 78733 (hereinafter called the "Subadviser").

         WHEREAS, The Weiss Fund (the "Trust") is a Massachusetts business trust
organized with one or more series of shares,  and is registered as an investment
company under the  Investment  Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "1940 Act");
and

         WHEREAS, the Manager has entered into Investment Advisory  Agreement(s)
(the "Advisory  Agreement"),  with the Trust, pursuant to which the Manager acts
as  investment  adviser to the portfolio  assets of certain  series of the Trust
listed on  Schedule A hereto,  as amended  from time to time (each a "Fund" and,
collectively, the "Funds"); and

         WHEREAS,  the Manager desires to utilize the services of the Subadviser
as investment subadviser with respect to each Fund; and

         WHEREAS,  the  Subadviser  is willing to perform  such  services on the
terms and conditions hereinafter set forth:

         NOW,  THEREFORE,  in  consideration  of the  mutual  agreements  herein
contained, the parties hereto agree as follows:

1.                Duties  of the  Subadviser.  The  Subadviser  will  serve  the
                  Manager as investment subadviser with respect to each Fund.

(a)  As investment  subadviser to the Funds, the Subadviser is hereby authorized
     and directed and hereby agrees,  in accordance with the  Subadviser's  best
     judgment  and subject to the stated  investment  objectives,  policies  and
     restrictions  of the Funds as set  forth in the  current  prospectuses  and
     statements of additional  information of the Trust  (including  amendments)
     and in accordance with the Trust's  Declaration of Trust,  as amended,  and
     By-laws  governing  the  offering of its shares  (collectively,  the "Trust
     Documents"),  the 1940 Act and the provisions of the Internal  Revenue Code
     of 1986, as amended (the "Internal  Revenue  Code"),  relating to regulated
     investment companies,  and subject to such resolutions as from time to time
     may be adopted  by the  Trust's  Board of  Trustees,  to render  continuous
     investment advice to the Manager as to the investment of each Fund's assets
     in common or  preferred  stocks,  corporate or  government  bonds or notes,
     options,  warrants, rights and other securities,  based upon computer model
     portfolios  constructed to be compatible  with the  investment  objectives,
     policies  and  restrictions  of  the  Funds  as  stated  in  the  aforesaid
     prospectuses.  The  Subadviser  shall  have  no  discretion  regarding  nor
     responsibility for the implementation or execution of transactions which it
     recommends to the Manager for any Fund, such discretion and  responsibility
     being solely with the Manager in the exercise of its  independent  judgment
     regarding the  appropriateness of Subadviser's  investment  recommendations
     for  the  Fund  in  light  of  its  investment  objectives,   policies  and
     restrictions.

(b)                        The  Subadviser  shall (i) comply with all reasonable
                           requests  of the  Trust  for  information,  including
                           information  required in connection  with the Trust's
                           filings with the Securities  and Exchange  Commission
                           (the  "SEC") and state  securities  commissions,  and
                           (ii)  provide such other  services as the  Subadviser
                           shall from time to time  determine to be necessary or
                           useful to the administration of the Funds.

(c)                        The Subadviser  shall furnish to the Trust's Board of
                           Trustees  periodic  reports on the performance of its
                           obligations  under this  Agreement  and shall  supply
                           such  additional   reports  and  information  as  the
                           Trust's   officers   or  Board  of   Trustees   shall
                           reasonably request.

(d)                        The  investment  advisory  services  provided  by the
                           Subadviser  under this Agreement are not to be deemed
                           exclusive and the Subadviser  shall be free to render
                           similar services to others,  as long as such services
                           do not impair the services rendered to the Manager or
                           the Trust.

2.                Delivery of  Documents  to the  Manager.  The  Subadviser  has
                  furnished  the Manager  with  copies of each of the  following
                  documents:

(a)      The Subadviser's current Form ADV and any amendments thereto;

                  The Subadviser will furnish the Manager from time to time with
                  copies, properly certified or otherwise authenticated,  of all
                  material  amendments of or supplements  to the  foregoing,  if
                  any. Additionally,  the Subadviser will provide to the Manager
                  such  other  documents  relating  to its  services  under this
                  Agreement as the Manager may reasonably  request on a periodic
                  basis.  Such amendments or supplements as to items (a) through
                  (c)  above  will be  provided  within 30 days of the time such
                  materials became available to the Subadviser.

3.                Expenses. The Subadviser shall pay all of its expenses arising
                  from the performance of its obligations under Section 1.

4.                Compensation.  The Manager shall pay to the Subadviser for its
                  services  hereunder,  and the  Subadviser  agrees to accept as
                  full compensation therefor, a fee with respect to each Fund as
                  set  forth  on  Schedule  B.  If the  Subadviser  shall  serve
                  hereunder for less than the whole of any payment  period,  the
                  fee hereunder shall be prorated accordingly.

5.                Independent  Contractor.  In the  performance  of  its  duties
                  hereunder,  the  Subadviser  is and  shall  be an  independent
                  contractor  and  except  as  expressly   provided   herein  or
                  otherwise  authorized  in writing,  shall have no authority to
                  act for or represent the Trust, the Funds, any other series of
                  the Trust or the Manager in any way or  otherwise be deemed to
                  be an agent of the Trust,  the Funds,  any other series of the
                  Trust or the Manager.

6.   Term of Agreement.  This Agreement  shall continue in full force and effect
     until June 29, 2001, and from year to year  thereafter if such  continuance
     is approved in the manner required by the 1940 Act if the Subadviser  shall
     not have  notified  the  Manager  in writing at least 60 days prior to such
     June 29 or prior to June 29 of any year  thereafter that it does not desire
     such  continuance.  This  Agreement may be terminated at any time,  without
     payment of penalty by a Fund, by vote of the Trust's Board of Trustees or a
     majority of the  outstanding  voting  securities of the applicable Fund (as
     defined by the 1940 Act),  or by the Manager or by the  Subadviser  upon 60
     days' written notice.  This Agreement will  automatically  terminate in the
     event  of its  assignment  (as  defined  by  the  1940  Act)  or  upon  the
     termination of the Advisory Agreement.

7.   Amendments.  This Agreement may be amended by consent of the parties hereto
     provided that the consent of the applicable  Fund is obtained in accordance
     with the requirements of the 1940 Act.

8.   Confidential   Treatment.   It  is  understood   that  any  information  or
     recommendation   supplied  by  the   Subadviser  in  connection   with  the
     performance of its obligations  hereunder is to be regarded as confidential
     and for use only by the  Manager,  the Trust or such persons as the Manager
     may designate in connection  with the Funds. It is also understood that any
     information  supplied to the Subadviser in connection  with the performance
     of its obligations hereunder, particularly, but not limited to, any list of
     securities  which, on a temporary  basis, may not be bought or sold for the
     Funds, is to be regarded as confidential and for use only by the Subadviser
     in connection  with its obligation to provide  investment  advice and other
     services to the Funds.

                           this  Agreement  does  not  conflict  with  any  law,
                           regulation  or  order  to  which  the  Subadviser  is
                           subject; and

(d)  The Subadviser has reviewed the portion of (i) the  registration  statement
     filed  with  the  SEC,  as  amended  from  time  to  time,  for  the  Funds
     ("Registration   Statement"),   and  (ii)  each  Fund's   prospectuses  and

     each  case in the  form  received  from the  Manager  with  respect  to the
     disclosure  about the  Subadviser and the Funds of which the Subadviser has
     knowledge  ("Subadviser  and Fund  Information")  and  except as advised in
     writing  to the  Manager  such  Registration  Statement,  prospectuses  and
     statements of additional  information (including amendments) contain, as of
     their  respective  dates, no untrue statement of any material fact of which
     the  Subadviser  has  knowledge and do not omit any statement of a material
     fact of which the Subadviser has knowledge  which was required to be stated
     therein  or  necessary  to  make  the  statements   contained  therein  not
     misleading.

10.               Covenants. The Subadviser hereby covenants and agrees that, so
                  long as this Agreement shall remain in effect:

(a)                        The  Subadviser   shall  maintain  the   Subadviser's
                           registration  as  an  investment  adviser  under  the
                           Advisers  Act,  and  such  registration  shall at all
                           times remain current, complete and in full compliance
                           with  all  material  applicable   provisions  of  the
                           Advisers   Act  and   the   rules   and   regulations
                           thereunder;

(b)                        The Subadviser's performance of its obligations under
                           this  Agreement  shall  not  conflict  with  any law,
                           regulation  or order to which the  Subadviser is then
                           subject;

(c)                        The  Subadviser  shall at all times  comply  with the
                           Advisers  Act and the 1940  Act,  and all  rules  and
                           regulations thereunder, and all other applicable laws
                           and  regulations,  and  the  Registration  Statement,
                           prospectuses and statements of additional information
                           (including   amendments)   and  with  any  applicable
                           procedures  adopted by the Trust's Board of Trustees,
                           provided  that  such  procedures  are  identified  in
                           writing to the Subadviser;

(d)  The  Subadviser  shall  promptly  notify the Manager and the Funds upon the
     occurrence  of any event that might  disqualify  or prevent the  Subadviser
     from  performing  its duties under this  Agreement.  The  Subadviser  shall
     promptly  notify the  Manager and the Funds if there are any changes to its
     organizational  structure or the  Subadviser  has become the subject of any
     adverse regulatory action imposed by any regulatory body or self-regulatory
     organization.  The  Subadviser  further agrees to notify the Manager of any
     changes  relating to it or the provision of services by it that would cause
     the  Registration  Statement,  prospectuses  or  statements  of  additional
     information  (including  amendments)  for the Funds to  contain  any untrue
     statement of a material  fact or to omit to state a material  fact which is
     required  to be  stated  therein  or is  necessary  to make the  statements
     contained  therein not misleading,  in each case relating to Subadviser and
     Fund Information; and

(e)                        The  Subadviser  will  render  advice to the  Manager
                           regarding the  investment of each Fund's assets which
                           is consistent with maintaining the Fund's status as a
                           regulated  investment  company under  Subchapter M of
                           the Internal Revenue Code.

11.      Use of Names.

(a)  The Subadviser  acknowledges and agrees that the names "The Weiss Fund" and
     "Weiss Money Management,  Inc.," and abbreviations or logos associated with
     those names,  are the valuable  property of the Manager and its affiliates;
     that the Funds, the Manager and their affiliates have the right to use such
     names, abbreviations and logos; and that the Subadviser shall use the names
     "The  Weiss  Fund" and  "Weiss  Money  Management,  Inc.,"  and  associated
     abbreviations   and  logos,   only  in  connection  with  the  Subadviser's
     performance of its duties hereunder. Further, in any communication with the
     public and in any marketing  communications of any sort,  Subadviser agrees
     to obtain prior written  approval from Manager before using or referring to
     "The Weiss Fund" and "Weiss  Money  Management,  Inc.," or the Funds or any
     abbreviations or logos associated with those names.

(b)  The  Manager   acknowledges  that  "Harvest"  and  "Harvest  Advisors"  and
     abbreviations or logos associated with those names are valuable property of
     Harvest  Advisors,  Inc. and are  distinctive in connection with investment
     advisory and related  services  provided by the  Subadviser,  the "Harvest"
     name is a property right of the Subadviser,  and the "Harvest" and "Harvest
     Advisors"  names are understood to be used by each Fund upon the conditions
     hereinafter  set forth;  provided that each Fund may use such names only so
     long as the Subadviser  shall be retained as the  investment  subadviser of
     the Fund pursuant to the terms of this Agreement.

(c)  The  Subadviser  acknowledges  that  each Fund and its  agents  may use the
     "Harvest"  and  "Harvest  Advisors"  names in  connection  with  accurately
     describing  the  activities of the Fund,  including use with  marketing and
     other promotional and informational  material relating to the Fund with the
     prior  written  approval  always of the  Subadviser.  In the event that the
     Subadviser shall cease to be the investment  subadviser of a Fund, then the
     Fund at its own or the Manager's  expense,  upon the  Subadviser's  written
     request:  (i) shall cease to use the  Subadviser's  name for any commercial
     purpose;  and (ii) shall use its best efforts to cause the Fund's  officers
     and  trustees  to take  any and  all  actions  which  may be  necessary  or
     desirable to effect the  foregoing  and to reconvey to the  Subadviser  all
     rights which a Fund may have to such name.  Manager  agrees to take any and
     all  reasonable  actions as may be  necessary  or  desirable  to effect the
     foregoing  and  Subadviser  agrees to allow  the  Funds and their  agents a
     reasonable time to effectuate the foregoing.

(d)                        The Subadviser  hereby agrees and consents to the use
                           of the Subadviser's name upon the foregoing terms and
                           conditions.

12.               Reports  by the  Subadviser  and  Records  of the  Funds.  The
                  Subadviser  shall furnish the Manager  information and reports
                  necessary to the operation of the Funds, including information
                  required  to  be   disclosed   in  the  Trust's   Registration
                  Statement,  in  such  form  as may  be  mutually  agreed.  The
                  Subadviser  shall  immediately  notify and forward to both the
                  Manager  and legal  counsel  for the  Trust any legal  process
                  served upon it on behalf of the Manager or the Trust.

                  In compliance  with the  requirements  of Rule 31a-3 under the
                  1940 Act, the Subadviser  agrees that all records it maintains
                  for the Trust are the property of the Trust and further agrees
                  to  surrender  promptly  to the Trust or the  Manager any such
                  records  upon  the  Trust's  or  the  Manager's  request.  The
                  Subadviser  further  agrees  to  maintain  for the  Trust  the
                  records the Trust is required to maintain  under Rule 31a-1(b)
                  insofar as such records  relate to the  investment  affairs of
                  each Fund. The  Subadviser  further agrees to preserve for the
                  periods  prescribed  by Rule  31a-2  under  the  1940  Act the
                  records it maintains for the Trust.

13.  Indemnification.  The Subadviser  agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the
     Manager, any affiliated person within the meaning of Section 2(a)(3) of the
     1940 Act ("affiliated person") of the Manager and each person, if any, who,
     within the meaning of Section 15 of the  Securities Act of 1933, as amended
     (the "1933 Act"), controls ("controlling person") the Manager,  against any
     and all losses,  claims,  damages,  liabilities  or  litigation  (including
     reasonable  legal and other expenses),  to which the Manager,  the Trust or
     such affiliated  person or controlling  person may become subject under the
     1933 Act, the 1940 Act,  the  Advisers  Act,  under any other  statute,  at
     common law or otherwise,  arising out of Subadviser's  responsibilities  as
     subadviser of the Funds (1) to the extent of and as a result of the willful
     misconduct,  bad faith, or gross  negligence of the Subadviser,  any of the
     Subadviser's employees or representatives or any affiliate of or any person
     acting  on  behalf  of the  Subadviser,  or (2) as a result  of any  untrue
     statement or alleged  untrue  statement of a material fact contained in the
     Registration   Statement,   prospectuses   or   statements   of  additional
     information covering the Funds or the Trust or any amendment thereof or any
     supplement  thereto or the omission or alleged  omission to state therein a
     material  fact  required  to be stated  therein  or  necessary  to make the
     statement therein not misleading,  if such a statement or omission was made
     in reliance  upon written  information  furnished by the  Subadviser to the
     Manager,  the Trust or any  affiliated  person of the  Manager or the Trust
     expressly  for use in the Trust's  Registration  Statement,  or upon verbal
     information confirmed by the Subadviser in writing expressly for use in the
     Trust's Registration Statement;  provided,  however, that in no case is the
     Subadviser's  indemnity in favor of the Manager or any affiliated person or
     controlling person of the Manager deemed to protect such person against any
     liability to which any such person would  otherwise be subject by reason of
     willful misconduct, bad faith or gross negligence in the performance of its
     duties or by reason of its reckless disregard of its obligations and duties
     under this Agreement.

                  The  Manager   agrees  to  indemnify  and  hold  harmless  the
                  Subadviser,  any affiliated  person of the Subadviser and each
                  controlling  person  of the  Subadviser,  against  any and all
                  losses, claims, damages,  liabilities or litigation (including
                  reasonable legal and other expenses),  to which the Subadviser
                  or such  affiliated  person or  controlling  person may become
                  subject  under the 1933 Act, the 1940 Act,  the Advisers  Act,
                  under any other statute,  at common law or otherwise,  arising
                  out of the Manager's responsibilities as investment manager of
                  the Funds (1) to the extent of and as a result of the  willful
                  misconduct, bad faith, or gross negligence of the Manager, any
                  of the Manager's employees or representatives or any affiliate
                  of or any person acting on behalf of the Manager,  or (2) as a
                  result of any untrue  statement or alleged untrue statement of
                  a  material  fact  contained  in the  Registration  Statement,
                  prospectuses or statements of additional  information covering
                  the  Funds  or the  Trust  or  any  amendment  thereof  or any
                  supplement  thereto or the  omission  or alleged  omission  to
                  state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or
                  necessary to make the  statement  therein not  misleading,  if
                  such a statement  or omission was made by the Trust other than
                  in  reliance  upon  written   information   furnished  by  the
                  Subadviser,  or  any  affiliated  person  of  the  Subadviser,
                  expressly  for use in the Trust's  Registration  Statement  or
                  other than upon verbal information confirmed by the Subadviser
                  in  writing  expressly  for  use in the  Trust's  Registration
                  Statement; provided, however, that in no case is the Manager's
                  indemnity in favor of the Subadviser or any affiliated  person
                  or controlling person of the Subadviser deemed to protect such
                  person  against any  liability  to which any such person would
                  otherwise  be  subject by reason of  willful  misconduct,  bad
                  faith or gross  negligence in the performance of its duties or
                  by reason of its  reckless  disregard of its  obligations  and

Dear Sirs:

         As counsel for The Weiss Fund (the  "Trust"),  we are familiar with the
registration  of the Trust under the Investment  Company Act of 1940, as amended
(the "1940 Act") (File No. 811-09084), and Post-Effective Amendment No. 8 to the
Trust's  registration  statement  relating to the shares of beneficial  interest
(the  "Shares") of Weiss  Millennium  Opportunity  Fund (the "Fund") being filed
under  the   Securities   Act  of  1933,   as   amended   (File  No.   33-95688)
("Post-Effective  Amendment No. 8"). We have also examined such other records of
the Trust, agreements, documents and instruments as we deemed appropriate.

         Based upon the  foregoing,  it is our opinion that the Shares have been
duly  authorized  and,  when  issued  and  sold  at the  public  offering  price
contemplated  by the  Prospectus for the Fund and delivered by the Trust against
receipt of the net asset value of the  Shares,  will be issued as fully paid and
nonassessable Shares of the Trust.

         We consent  to the  filing of this  opinion on behalf of the Trust with
the  Securities  and  Exchange  Commission  in  connection  with the  filing  of
Post-Effective Amendment No. 8.

                                                  Very truly yours,


                                                  /s/ DECHERT PRICE & RHOADS




                                                             Exhibit j(1)



               CONSENT OF INDEPENDENT CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS



We consent to the  reference to our firm in the  Pre-Effective  Amendment to the
Registration Statement on Form N-1A of the Weiss Millennium Opportunity Fund and
to the use of our report  dated  June 28,  1999 on the  statement  of assets and
liabilities of the Weiss Millennium  Opportunity  Fund. Such statement of assets
and liabilities appears in the Fund's Statement of Additional Information.

                                                                   Exhibit m



                                DISTRIBUTION PLAN
                        FOR THE WEISS FUND CLASS S SHARES

                  WHEREAS,  The Weiss Fund (the  "Trust")  is  registered  as an
open-end investment company under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the "Act")
and consists of one or more separate investment  portfolios (the "Funds") as may
be established and designated from time to time;

                  WHEREAS,  the Trust and Weiss Funds, Inc. (the "Distributor"),
a  broker-dealer  registered  under the  Securities  Exchange Act of 1934,  have
entered into a Distribution  Agreement pursuant to which the Distributor acts as
a distributor of shares of the Funds for sale to the public;

                  WHEREAS,  the Board of Trustees of the Trust has determined to
adopt a Plan (the "Plan") in accordance with the requirements of the Act and has
determined that there is a reasonable  likelihood that the Plan will benefit the
Trust and its shareholders;

                  NOW, THEREFORE,  the Trust hereby adopts the Plan with respect
to Class S shares on the following terms and conditions:

1. The Plan will pertain to the Class S shares of Weiss  Millennium  Opportunity
Fund;  and to the Class S shares of such Funds as shall be designated  from time
to time by the Board of Trustees in any supplement to the Plan ("Supplement").

2. The Trust shall pay the Distributor a fee relating to the distribution and/or
service  of the Class S shares of each Fund at the  annual  rate of 0.25% of the
average daily net assets  attributable  to that Fund's Class S shares.  Such fee
shall be  calculated  and  accrued  daily  and  paid  monthly  or at such  other
intervals as the Trustees shall determine, subject to any applicable restriction
imposed by rules of the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. If this
Plan is terminated, the Trust will owe no payments to the Distributor other than
any portion of the  distribution  fee  accrued  through  the  effective  date of
termination but then unpaid.

3. The  amount  set  forth in  paragraph  2 of this  Plan  shall be paid for the
Distributor's  services  as  distributor  of the  Class  S  shares  of a Fund in
connection with any activities or expenses  primarily  intended to result in the
sale of the Class S shares of that  Fund  and/or  for  account  maintenance  and
personal service to shareholders, including, but not limited to, compensation to
broker-dealers   that  have  entered  into  a  dealer  and/or   shareholder   or
administrative  services  agreement with the  Distributor;  compensation  to and
expenses of employees of the Distributor  who engage in or support  distribution
and/or shareholder servicing of a Fund's Class S shares;  compensation to banks,
investment  advisers,  financial  institutions and other entities (including the
Distributor   itself)  for  rendering   certain   shareholder   liaison   and/or
administrative  services;  telephone  expenses;  interest expenses;  printing of
prospectuses  and reports  for other than  existing  shareholders;  preparation,
printing and  distribution of sales  literature and advertising  materials;  and
profit on the foregoing.

4. The Plan shall not take effect with respect to Class S shares of a Fund until
it has been approved by a vote of at least a majority (as defined in the Act) of
the outstanding  voting  securities of Class S of that Fund. With respect to the
submission of the Plan for such a vote, it shall have been effectively  approved
with respect to a Fund if a majority of the  outstanding  voting  securities  of
Class S of the Fund votes for  approval  of the Plan,  notwithstanding  that the
matter has not been approved by a majority of the outstanding  voting securities
of the Trust or of any other Fund or class.

5. The Plan shall not take effect until it has been approved,  together with any
related agreements and supplements, by votes of a majority of both (a) the Board
of  Trustees  of the  Trust,  and (b)  those  Trustees  of the Trust who are not
"interested  persons"  (as  defined  in the Act) and have no direct or  indirect
financial  interest in the operation of the Plan or any agreements related to it
(the "Plan Trustees"),  cast in person at a meeting (or meetings) called for the
purpose of voting on the Plan and such related agreement.

6. The Plan shall continue in effect so long as such continuance is specifically
approved at least  annually in the manner  provided  for approval of the Plan in
paragraph 5 hereof.

7. Any person  authorized to direct the disposition of monies paid or payable by
the Trust  pursuant to the Plan or any related  agreements  shall provide to the
Trust's Board of Trustees,  and the Board shall review,  at least  quarterly,  a
written  report of the  amounts  so  expended  and the  purposes  for which such
expenditures were made.

8. Any agreement related to the Plan shall be in writing and shall provide:  (a)
that such agreement may be terminated at any time as to a Fund,  without payment
of any  penalty,  by vote of a  majority  of the Plan  Trustees  or by vote of a
majority of the  outstanding  voting  securities  of Class S of the Fund, on not
more than sixty (60) days' written  notice to any other party to the  agreement;
and (b) that such agreement  shall terminate  automatically  in the event of its
assignment.

9. The Plan  may be  terminated  at any time  with  respect  to a Fund,  without
payment of any penalty,  by vote of a majority of the Plan Trustees,  or by vote
of a majority of the outstanding voting securities of Class S of the Fund.

10. The Plan may be  amended at any time with  respect to a Fund by the Board of
Trustees, provided that (a) any amendment to increase materially the costs which
the Fund may bear pursuant to the Plan shall be effective  only upon approval by
a vote of a majority  of the  outstanding  voting  securities  of Class S of the
Fund,  and (b) any  material  amendments  of the terms of the Plan shall  become
effective only upon approval as provided in paragraph 5 hereof.

11. While the Plan is in effect,  the selection  and  nomination of Trustees who
are not  interested  persons  (as  defined  in the  Act) of the  Trust  shall be
committed to the discretion of the Trustees who are not interested persons.

12. The Fund shall preserve  copies of the Plan,  any related  agreement and any
report made  pursuant to  paragraph 7 hereof,  for a period of not less than six
(6) years from the date of the Plan,  such agreement or report,  as the case may
be, the first two (2) years of which shall be in an easily accessible place.

13. It is understood and expressly stipulated that neither the holders of shares
of the Trust nor any Trustee,  officer, agent or employees of the Trust shall be
personally  liable  hereunder,  nor  shall any  resort  be had to other  private
property for the  satisfaction  of any claim or  obligation  hereunder,  but the
Trust only shall be liable.



                  IN WITNESS  WHEREOF,  the Trust has adopted this  Distribution
Plan effective as of the 29th day of June, 1999.

                                         John N. Breazeale, President





                                                                 Exhibit o




                                 THE WEISS FUND

                           PLAN PURSUANT TO RULE 18F-3
                                    UNDER THE
                         INVESTMENT COMPANY ACT OF 1940

I.       INTRODUCTION

         In accordance with Rule 18f-3 under the Investment Company Act of 1940,
as amended (the "1940 Act"), this Plan describes the multi-class  structure that
will apply to certain series of The Weiss Fund (each a "Fund" and, collectively,
the "Funds"),  including  the separate  class  arrangements  for the service and
distribution  of shares,  the method for  allocating  the expenses and income of
each Fund among its classes,  and any related exchange privileges and conversion
features that apply to the different classes.

II.      THE MULTI-CLASS STRUCTURE

The  following  Fund is authorized to issue two classes of shares  identified as
     Class A and Class S: Weiss Millennium Opportunity Fund.

         Shares of each class of the Fund  represent an equal pro rata  interest
in the underlying  assets of that Fund,  and generally  have  identical  voting,
dividend,  liquidation,  and other rights,  preferences,  powers,  restrictions,
limitations,  qualifications  and terms and  conditions,  except that:  (a) each
class shall have a  different  designation;  (b) each class  shall bear  certain
class-specific expenses, as described more fully in Section III.C.2., below; (c)
each class  shall  have  exclusive  voting  rights on any  matter  submitted  to
shareholders  that relates solely to its  arrangement;  and (d) each class shall
have separate voting rights on any matter submitted to shareholders in which the
interests of one class differ from the interests of any other class.  Each class
of shares shall also have the distinct features described in Section III, below.

III.     CLASS ARRANGEMENTS

         A.       FRONT-END SALES CHARGES AND CONTINGENT DEFERRED SALES
                  CHARGES

         Class A shares  shall be  offered at net asset  value plus a  front-end
sales charge. The front-end sales charge shall be in such amount as is disclosed
in the Fund's  current  prospectus and shall be subject to reductions for larger
purchases and such waivers or  reductions  as are  determined or approved by the
Board of Trustees.  Class A shares generally will not be subject to a contingent
deferred  sales  charge (a  "CDSC"),  although  a CDSC may be imposed in certain
limited  cases as  disclosed  in the Fund's  current  prospectus  or  prospectus
supplement.

         Class S shares are not subject to a front-end sales charge or a CDSC.

         B.       RULE 12B-1 PLAN

         The Fund has adopted a service and  distribution  plan pursuant to Rule
12b-1 under the 1940 Act (a "12b-1  plan")  under which it pays to Weiss  Funds,
Inc. (the "Distributor") a fee accrued daily and paid monthly at the annual rate
of 0.25% of the average daily net assets value of the Fund's outstanding Class S
shares.1  The  foregoing  amount  is paid  for  the  Distributor's  services  as
distributor of the Class S shares of a Fund in connection with any activities or
expenses  primarily intended to result in the sale of the Class S shares of that
Fund  and/or for  account  maintenance  and  personal  service to  shareholders,
including,  but not limited to, compensation to broker-dealers that have entered
into a dealer and/or  shareholder or administrative  services agreement with the
Distributor;  compensation  to and expenses of employees of the  Distributor who
engage in or support distribution and/or shareholder servicing of a Fund's Class
S shares; compensation to banks, investment advisers, financial institutions and
other  entities   (including  the  Distributor  itself)  for  rendering  certain
shareholder liaison and/or administrative services; telephone expenses; interest
expenses;   printing  of  prospectuses  and  reports  for  other  than  existing
shareholders;  preparation,  printing and  distribution of sales  literature and
advertising materials; and profit on the foregoing.

         C.       ALLOCATION OF EXPENSES AND INCOME

                  1.       "TRUST" AND "FUND" EXPENSES

         The gross income,  realized and unrealized capital gains and losses and
expenses  (other than "Class  Expenses," as defined  below) of the Fund shall be
allocated to each class on the basis of its net asset value  relative to the net
asset value of the Fund.  Expenses so allocated  include  expenses of Weiss Fund
that are not  attributable  to a  particular  Fund or  class  of a Fund  ("Trust
Expenses") and expenses of the Fund not  attributable  to a particular  class of
the Fund ("Fund  Expenses").  Trust  Expenses  include,  but are not limited to,
Trustees'  fees and expenses;  insurance  costs;  certain  legal fees;  expenses
related to shareholder  reports;  and printing expenses.  Fund Expenses include,
but are not limited to, certain registration fees (i.e., state registration fees
imposed  on a  Fund-wide  basis  and SEC  registration  fees);  custodial  fees;
transfer agent fees;  advisory fees; fees related to the preparation of separate
documents  of a  particular  Fund,  such as a  separate  prospectus;  and  other
expenses relating to the management of the Fund's assets.

         2.       "CLASS" EXPENSES

         The  types of  expenses  attributable  to a  particular  class  ("Class
Expenses")  include:  (a)  payments  pursuant  to the Rule  12b-1  plan for that
class;2 (b) transfer agent fees attributable to a particular class; (c) printing
and postage expenses related to preparing and distributing  shareholder reports,
prospectuses  and proxy materials;  (d) registration  fees (other than those set
forth in Section C.1. above);  (e) the expense of  administrative  personnel and
services as required to support the  shareholders  of a  particular  class;  (f)
litigation or other legal expenses  relating solely to a particular  class;  (g)
Trustees'  fees incurred as a result of issues  relating to a particular  class;
and (h) the expense of holding  meetings solely for shareholders of a particular
class.  Expenses described in subpart (a) of this paragraph must be allocated to
the class for which they are  incurred.  All other  expenses  described  in this
paragraph  may (but need not) be  allocated as Class  Expenses,  but only if The
Weiss Fund's Board of Trustees  determines,  or The Weiss Fund's  President  and
Secretary/Treasurer  have  determined,  subject to  ratification by the Board of
Trustees,  that the  allocation  of such  expenses by class is  consistent  with
applicable  legal principles under the 1940 Act and the Internal Revenue Code of
1986, as amended.

         In  the  event  that  a  particular  expense  is no  longer  reasonably
allocable  by class or to a  particular  class,  it shall be  treated as a Trust
Expense  or Fund  Expense,  and in the  event a Trust  Expense  or Fund  Expense
becomes  reasonably  allocable  as a Class  Expense,  it shall be so  allocated,
subject to  compliance  with Rule 18f-3 and to approval or  ratification  by the
Board of Trustees.

                           3.       WAIVERS OR REIMBURSEMENTS OF EXPENSES

         Expenses may be waived or  reimbursed by any adviser to The Weiss Fund,
by the  Distributor  or any other provider of services to The Weiss Fund without
the prior approval of The Weiss Fund's Board of Trustees.

         D.       EXCHANGE PRIVILEGES

    Shareholders of each Fund have exchange privileges with the other Funds.3

                  1.       CLASS A:

         INITIAL SALES CHARGE SHARES.  Class A  shareholders  may exchange their
Class A shares ("outstanding Class A shares") for Class A shares of another Fund
(or for shares of another  Fund that  currently  offers  only a single  class of
shares)  ("new Class A Shares") on the basis of the relative net asset value per
Class A share, plus an amount equal to the difference, if any, between the sales
charge  previously paid on the  outstanding  Class A shares and the sales charge
payable at the time of the exchange on the new Class A shares. Incremental sales
charges are waived for outstanding Class A shares that have been invested for 12
months or longer.

                  2.       CLASS S:

         Class S shareholders  may exchange  their Class S shares  ("outstanding
Class S shares")  for Class S shares of another  Fund ("new  Class S Shares") on
the basis of the relative net asset value per Class S share.



                  3.       GENERAL:

         Shares   resulting  from  the   reinvestment  of  dividends  and  other
distributions  will not be charged a sales  charge when  exchanged  into another
Fund.

IV.      BOARD REVIEW

         A.       INITIAL APPROVAL

         The Board of Trustees  of The Weiss  Fund,  including a majority of the
Trustees who are not interested  persons of The Weiss Fund, as defined under the
1940 Act (the  "Independent  Trustees"),  at a meeting  held on April 27,  1999,
initially approved this Plan based on a determination  that the Plan,  including
the expense allocation,  is in the best interests of each class of shares of the
Fund individually and The Weiss Fund as a whole.

         B.       APPROVAL OF AMENDMENTS

         Before any material  amendments to this Plan, The Weiss Fund's Board of
Trustees,  including a majority of the Independent Trustees,  must find that the
Plan, as proposed to be amended (including any proposed amendments to the method
of  allocating  Class and/or Fund  Expenses),  is in the best  interests of each
class of  shares of the Fund  individually  and The  Weiss  Fund as a whole.  In
considering  whether to  approve  any  proposed  amendment(s)  to the Plan,  the
Trustees of The Weiss Fund shall request and evaluate such  information  as they
consider reasonably necessary to evaluate the proposed amendment(s) to the Plan.
Such   information   shall   address   the  issue  of  whether  any  waivers  or
reimbursements  of  advisory  or  administrative  fees  could  be  considered  a
cross-subsidization  of one class by another,  and other potential  conflicts of
interest between classes.

         C.       PERIODIC REVIEW

         The  Board of  Trustees  of The Weiss  Fund  shall  review  the Plan as
frequently as it deems necessary, consistent with applicable legal requirements.

V.       EFFECTIVE DATE

         The Plan first became effective as of April 27, 1999.




1        Fees for  services  in  connection  with the Rule  12b-1  plan  will be
         consistent  with any  applicable  restriction  imposed by the  National
         Association of Securities Dealers, Inc.

2 Class A shares bear no distribution or service fees.





3        Other exchange  privileges,  not described herein,  exist under certain
         other circumstances,  as described in each Fund's current prospectus or
         prospectus supplement.
