PURPOSE OF TRANSACTION No change except for addition of the following: On March 14, 2003 Ron Olin sent a letter to the board of the SMALLCap Fund Inc. (The Fund) requesting the Fund to do an immediate tender offer for all shares at Net Asset Value (NAV). On March 24, 2003 Ron Olin was quoted in Barron's Financial Magazine as follows: "The fund should fix performance, and quit passing bylaws which take rights of shareholders away. Past that, they should do a tender for all shares at NAV, so shareholders disgusted with this group can leave." On March 26, 2003 Ron Olin sent other shareholders of the SMALLCap Fund a copy of his March 14, 2003 letter to the Board which requested the Fund do an immediate tender offer for all shares at NAV. On March 31, 2003 Ron Olin was contacted by a representative of the Fund who invited him to discuss with the Board his letter and views concerning the management and operation of the Fund. Ron Olin agreed, subject to written assurances by the Fund that they would not use statements and views expressed by him in the meeting as the basis for litigation against him. He also offered to sign similar agreements not to sue the Fund or its representatives. The Fund declined to meet with him if such assurances were required and no such meeting occurred. On April 3, 2003 Ron Olin sent another letter to Fund's shareholders asking them to contact the Fund and join him in demanding that the current Board immediately announce a tender offer for all shares at NAV.
