Tax-Free Money Market Fund

1. WHAT IS THE FUND'S INVESTMENT OBJECTIVE?

    Tax-Free Money Market seeks safety of principal and high current income that
    is exempt from federal income tax.

2. WHAT IS THE FUND'S INVESTMENT STRATEGY?

    The portfolio managers invest at least 80% of the fund's assets in
    cash-equivalent, high-quality debt securities with interest payments exempt
    from federal income tax. Cities, counties and other municipalities in the 50
    states and U.S. territories usually issue these securities for public
    projects, such as schools and roads.

    The portfolio managers also may buy cash-equivalent, high-quality debt
    securities with interest payments exempt from regular federal income tax,
    but not exempt from the federal alternative minimum tax. Cities, counties
    and other municipalities usually issue these securities (called private
    activity bonds) to fund for-profit private projects, such as hospitals and
    athletic stadiums. No more than 20% of the fund's total assets may be
    invested in these securities.

    Additional information about Tax-Free Money Market's investments is
    available in its annual and semiannual reports. In these reports you will
    find a discussion of the market conditions and investment strategies that
    significantly affected the fund's performance during the most recent fiscal
    period. You may get these reports at no cost by calling us.

3. WHAT ARE THE SIGNIFICANT RISKS OF INVESTING IN THE FUND?

*    An investment  in the fund is not a bank deposit,  and it is not insured or
     guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) or any other
     government  agency.  Although  the fund seeks to preserve the value of your
     investment at $1.00 per share, it is possible to lose money by investing in
     the fund.

*    Because  cash-equivalent  securities  are among the least risky  securities
     available,  the interest  they pay is among the lowest for  interest-paying
     securities.  Accordingly,  the yield on this fund will likely be lower than
     funds that invest in longer-term or lower-quality securities.

*    Some of the fund's income may be subject to the federal alternative minimum
     tax.

*    Because the fund  invests  primarily in  municipal  securities,  it will be
     sensitive to events that affect  municipal  markets.  Tax-Free Money Market
     may have a higher level of risk than funds that invest in a larger universe
     of securities.

*    There is no guarantee that all of the fund's income will remain exempt from
     federal or state income taxes.  Income from municipal  bonds held by a fund
     could be  declared  taxable  because  of  unfavorable  changes in tax laws,
     adverse  interpretations  by the  Internal  Revenue  Service  or state  tax
     authorities, or noncompliant conduct of a bond issuer.
