MINUTES OF THE 8th ANNUAL MEETING OF THE SHAREHOLDERS

The 8th annual meeting of Shareholders of Redwood MicroCap Fund, Inc. was held at the Fund's offices at 2055 Anglo Dr., Suite 202, in Colorado Springs, CO at 9:00 on the 10th day of August, 1992 pursuant to the "Notice of Proxy" sent to its shareholders.

Present were Ross H. Boyd, Philip J. Halseide and John C. Power. A representative of American Securities Stock Transfer Agents, Inc. was also present. No representative was present from Deloitte & Touche.

President, John Power declared that 1,446,642 shares of capital stock constituting 72.7% of the 1,989,901 shares outstanding were represented by proxy and therefore, according to the bylaws of the Fund, the meeting could proceed with the transaction of the Fund's recent proxy statement.

The meeting was called to order.

The first order of business was the election of the directors to hold office until the ninth annual meeting of shareholders. The nominations were read and the results of the proxy vote as tabulated and confirmed by a representative of American Securities Stock Transfer Agents, Inc. were voted as follows:
