Introduction

Each Huntington Fund is a mutual fund. A mutual fund pools shareholders’ money and, using professional investment managers, invests it in securities such as stocks and bonds. Before you look at specific Huntington Funds, you should know a few basics about investing in mutual funds.

The value of your investment in a mutual fund is based on the market prices of the securities the mutual fund holds. These prices change daily due to economic trends and other developments that generally affect securities markets, as well as those that affect particular firms and other types of issuers. These price movements, also called volatility, vary depending on the types of securities a mutual fund owns and the markets where these securities trade.

As with other investments, you could lose money on your investment in a mutual fund. Your investment in the Huntington Funds is not a deposit or an obligation of The Huntington National Bank, its affiliates or any bank. It is not insured by the FDIC or any other government agency.

Each Fund has its own investment goal and strategies for reaching that goal. There is no guarantee that a Fund will achieve its goal. Before investing, make sure that the Fund’s goal matches your own. Each Fund’s investment goal is fundamental and may be changed only by a vote of a majority of the Fund’s outstanding shares. Unless otherwise noted, each Fund’s investment strategies are not fundamental and may be changed by the Trust’s Board of Trustees.

The portfolio manager invests each Fund’s assets in a way that he or she believes will help the Fund achieve its goal. A manager’s judgments about the securities markets, economy and companies, and his or her investment selection, may cause a Fund to underperform other funds with similar objectives.

Fund Summary, Investment Strategy and Risks

Money Market Fund

Fund Summary

Investment Goal To seek to maximize current income while preserving capital and maintaining liquidity by investing in a portfolio of high quality money market instruments

Investment Focus High-quality, short-term debt securities

<R>

Principal Investment Strategy Maximize current income while preserving capital

</R>

Share Price Volatility Low

Investor Profile Short-term or risk averse investors seeking our typically highest-yielding money market fund

Investment Strategy The Huntington Money Market Fund seeks to maximize current income while preserving capital and maintaining liquidity by investing in a portfolio of high quality money market instruments.

<R>

The Adviser strives to maintain a $1.00 net asset value per share for the Money Market Fund by investing in commercial paper and other short-term money market instruments for the Money Market Fund which are either rated in the highest rating category by a Nationally Recognized Statistical Rating Organization or unrated and deemed to be of comparable quality by the Adviser. In managing the portfolio, the Adviser determines an appropriate maturity range for the Fund (currently between 25 and 60 days) and each individual security held and endeavors to diversify the portfolio across market sectors. The Adviser employs a top-down analysis of economic and market factors to select Fund investments. In addition, the Adviser analyzes cash flows, maturities, settlements, tax payments, yields and credit quality and monitors new issue calendars for potential purchases.

</R>

For a more complete description of the securities in which the Fund can invest, please see “Investment Practices.”

What are the main risks of investing in this Fund? Loss of money is a risk of investing in the Fund. In addition, your investment in the Fund may be subject to the following principal risks:

Interest-Rate Risk: The possibility that the value of the Fund’s investments will decline due to an increase in interest rates, or that the Fund’s yield will decrease due to a decline in interest rates.

Credit Risk: The possibility that an issuer cannot make timely interest and principal payments on its securities. In general, the lower a security’s credit rating, the higher its credit risk.

<R>

For more information about risks, please see the “Glossary of Investment Risks.”

</R>

An investment in the Fund is not a deposit or an obligation of The Huntington National Bank, its affiliates or any bank, and it is not insured or guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation 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.

Yield

The income a fund generates is commonly referred to as its “yield.” For money market funds, yield is a more useful indication than total return of how a portfolio is performing. As a result, advertisements and other communications about the Huntington Money Market Fund will typically mention the portfolio’s yield. There are various types of yield, including current or 7-day yield and effective yield. All mutual funds must use the same formulas to calculate each of these yields.

The formula for effective yield assumes that investors take advantage of compounding by reinvesting their dividends; current or seven-day yield does not make the same assumption. As a result, a portfolio’s effective yield typically will be slightly higher than its current or seven-day yield. Both types of yield will tend to fluctuate daily due to such factors as a fund’s interest-rate exposure as well as the type and credit quality of its portfolio holdings.

To obtain current yield information for the Fund, please call 1-800-253-0412.

Fees and Expenses

The following tables describe the fees and expenses you would pay if you buy and hold Fund Shares.

Ohio Municipal Money Market Fund

Fund Summary

Investment Goal To seek to provide income exempt from both federal regular income tax and Ohio personal income taxes while preserving capital and maintaining liquidity

Investment Focus Ohio tax-free money market securities

Principal Investment Strategy Attempts to invest in high-quality, short-term Ohio tax-free securities

Share Price Volatility Low

Investor Profile Ohio residents seeking income exempt from federal and Ohio state personal income taxes

Investment Strategy The Huntington Ohio Municipal Money Market Fund seeks to provide income exempt from both federal regular income tax and Ohio personal income taxes while preserving capital and maintaining liquidity.

The Adviser strives to maintain a $1.00 net asset value per share for the Ohio Municipal Money Market Fund by investing substantially all of the Fund’s assets in short-term Ohio tax-exempt securities which are either rated in the highest rating category by a Nationally Recognized Statistical Rating Organization or unrated and deemed to be of comparable quality by the Adviser. In managing the portfolio, the Adviser determines an appropriate maturity range for the Fund (currently between 35 and 80 days) and each individual security held and endeavors to diversify the portfolio’s holdings within Ohio as much as possible. In addition, the Adviser analyzes cash flows, maturities, settlements, tax payments, yields and credit quality and monitors new issue calendars for potential purchases

For temporary defensive or liquidity purposes, the Fund may invest in securities the interest on which is subject to federal income tax or Ohio personal income taxes.

Ohio tax-exempt securities are debt obligations which (i) are issued by or on behalf of the state of Ohio or its respective authorities, agencies, instrumentalities and political subdivisions, and (ii) produce interest which, in the opinion of bond counsel at the time of issuance, is exempt from federal income tax and Ohio personal income taxes.

For more information about the Fund’s investment strategies and a more complete description of the securities in which the Fund can invest, please see “Additional Investment Strategies” and “Investment Practices.”

What are the main risks of investing in this Fund? Loss of money is a risk of investing in the Fund. In addition, your investment in the Fund may be subject to the following principal risks:

State Specific Risk: By concentrating its investments in Ohio, the Fund may be more vulnerable to unfavorable developments in that state than funds that are more geographically diversified. The economy of Ohio is largely concentrated in agriculture, motor vehicles and equipment, steel, rubber products and household appliances, and therefore tends to be more cyclical than some other states and the nation as a whole.

Diversification Risk: As a non-diversified fund, the Fund may invest a greater percentage of its assets in the securities of a single issuer than do other mutual funds, therefore Fund performance can be significantly affected by the performance of one or a small number of issuers.

Interest-Rate Risk: The possibility that the Fund’s investments will decline in value due to an increase in interest rates, or that the Fund’s yield will decrease due to a decline in interest rates.

Credit Risk: The possibility that an issuer cannot make timely interest and principal payments on its obligations. The lower a security’s rating, the greater its credit risk.

Florida Tax-Free Money Fund

Fund Summary

Investment Goal To seek to provide the highest level of interest income exempt from federal income tax, consistent with liquidity and stability of principal

Investment Focus Florida tax-free money market securities

Principal Investment Strategy Attempts to invest in high-quality, short-term Florida tax-free securities

Share Price Volatility Low

Investor Profile Florida residents seeking income exempt from federal personal income tax and Florida intangible personal property tax

Investment Strategy

The Huntington Florida Tax-Free Money Fund seeks to provide the highest level of interest income exempt from federal income tax, consistent with liquidity and stability of principal.

The Adviser strives to maintain a $1.00 net asset value per share for the Florida Tax-free Money Fund by investing substantially all of the Fund’s assets in short-term Florida tax-exempt securities which are either rated in the highest rating category by a Nationally Recognized Statistical Rating Organization or unrated and deemed to be of comparable quality by the Adviser.

In managing the portfolio, the Adviser determines an appropriate maturity range for the Fund (currently between 35 and 80 days) and each individual security held and endeavors to diversify the portfolio’s holdings within Florida as much as possible. In addition, the Adviser analyzes cash flows, maturities, settlements, tax payments, yields and credit quality and monitors new issue calendars for potential purchases. As part of the Adviser’s strategy to take advantage of the exemption from Florida’s intangible tax in any year, the Adviser may engage, on an annual basis, in significant portfolio restructuring to sell non-exempt assets. Transaction costs involved in such restructuring may adversely affect the Fund’s performance and possibly offset any gains achieved by investing in the assets sold.

For temporary defensive or liquidity purposes, the Fund may invest in securities the interest on which is subject to federal income tax.

Florida tax-exempt securities are debt obligations which (i) are issued by or on behalf of the state of Florida or its respective authorities, agencies, instrumentalities and political subdivisions, and (ii) produce interest which, in the opinion of bond counsel at the time of issuance, is exempt from federal income tax and the value of which is exempt from the Florida intangible personal property tax.

For more information about the Fund’s investment strategies and a more complete description of the securities in which the Fund can invest, please see “Additional Investment Strategies” and “Investment Practices.”

What are the main risks of investing in this Fund? Loss of money is a risk of investing in the Fund. In addition, your investment in the Fund may be subject to the following principal risks:

State Specific Risk: By concentrating its investments in Florida, the Fund may be more vulnerable to unfavorable developments in that state than funds that are more geographically diversified. The economy of Florida is largely concentrated in agriculture, tourism and construction and is adversely affected by severe weather conditions. It is also impacted by changes in the economies of Central and South America.

Diversification Risk: As a non-diversified fund, the Fund may invest a greater percentage of its assets in the securities of a single issuer than do other mutual funds, therefore Fund performance can be significantly affected by the performance of one or a small number of issuers.

Interest-Rate Risk: The possibility that the Fund’s investments will decline in value due to an increase in interest rates, or that the Fund’s yield will decrease due to a decline in interest rates.

Credit Risk: The possibility that an issuer cannot make timely interest and principal payments on its obligations. The lower a security’s rating, the greater its credit risk.

Investor Profile Highly risk averse investors seeking current income from a money market fund that invests primarily in U.S. Treasury obligations

<R>

Investment Strategy The Huntington U.S. Treasury Money Market Fund seeks to maximize current income while preserving capital and maintaining liquidity by investing exclusively in obligations issued by the U.S. Government and backed by its full faith and credit and in repurchase agreements with respect to such obligations.

</R>

The Adviser strives to maintain a $1.00 net asset value per share for the U.S. Treasury Money Market Fund by investing substantially all of the Fund’s assets in short-term obligations of the U.S. Government In managing the portfolio, the Adviser determines an appropriate maturity range for the Fund (currently between 25 and 60 days) and each individual security held. In addition, the Adviser analyzes cash flows, maturities, settlements, tax payments and yields and opposite direction; and monitors new issue calendars for potential purchases.

What are the main risks of investing in this Fund? Loss of money is a risk of investing in the Fund. In addition, your investment in the Fund may be subject to the following principal risks:

Interest-Rate Risk: The possibility that the value of the Fund’s investments will decline due to an increase in interest rates, or that the Fund’s yield will decrease due to a decline in interest rates. For more information about risks, please see the “Glossary of Investment Risks.”

</R>

An investment in the Fund is not a deposit or an obligation of The Huntington National Bank, its affiliates or any bank, and it is not insured or guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation 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.

Yield

The income a fund generates is commonly referred to as its “yield.” For money market funds, yield is a more useful indication than total return of how a portfolio is performing. As a result, advertisements and other communications about the Huntington U.S. Treasury Money Market Fund will typically mention the portfolio’s yield. There are various types of yield, including current or 7-day yield and effective yield. All mutual funds must use the same formulas to calculate each of these yields.

The formula for effective yield assumes that investors take advantage of compounding by reinvesting their dividends; current or seven-day yield does not make the same assumption. As a result, a portfolio’s effective yield typically will be slightly higher than its current or seven-day yield. Both types of yield will tend to fluctuate daily due to such factors as a fund’s interest-rate exposure as well as the type and credit quality of its portfolio holdings.

Principal Investment Strategy Seeks to invest in companies offering above-average growth potential

Share Price Volatility Moderate to High

Investor Profile Long-term investors seeking capital appreciation

Investment Strategy The Huntington Growth Fund seeks to achieve long-term capital appreciation primarily through investing in equity securities.

The Adviser intends to invest in common stock and other equity securities, such as preferred stock, of medium or large companies which it believes offer opportunities for growth. The Adviser occasionally invests in established companies which present growth opportunities and it believes have temporarily depressed prices.

In selecting investments, the Adviser reviews historical earnings, revenue and cash flow to identify the best companies in each industry and to evaluate the growth potential of these companies. On an ongoing basis, the Adviser also monitors the Fund’s existing positions to determine the benefits of retention.

For more information about the Fund’s investment strategies and a more complete description of the securities in which the Fund can invest, please see “Additional Investment Strategies” and “Investment Practices.”

What are the main risks of investing in this Fund? Loss of money is a risk of investing in the Fund. In addition, your investment in the Fund may be subject to the following principal risks:

Market Risk: The possibility that the Fund’s stock holdings will decline in price because of a general decline in the stock market. Markets generally move in cycles, with periods of rising prices followed by periods of falling prices. The value of your investment will tend to increase or decrease in response to these movements.

Investment Style Risk: The possibility that the kind of stocks on which this Fund focuses — those of medium to large U.S. growth companies — will underperform other types of stock investments or the market as a whole.

The Fund may trade securities actively, which could increase its transaction costs (thereby lowering its performance) and increase the amount of taxes that you pay.

Fund Summary

Investment Goal To seek to achieve high current income and moderate appreciation of capital primarily through investment in income-producing equity securities

Investment Focus Common and preferred stocks

Principal Investment Strategy Attempts to identify stocks that pay high dividends

Share Price Volatility Moderate

Investor Profile Investors seeking capital appreciation potential with higher current income and lower volatility than the average stock fund

Investment Strategy

The Huntington Income Equity Fund seeks to achieve high current income and moderate appreciation of capital primarily through investment in income-producing equity securities.

<R>

The Adviser focuses primarily on equity securities and under normal circumstances invest at least 80% of its assets in equity securities, such as common stock and preferred stock, which have a history of increasing or paying high dividends. As an additional income source, the Adviser also invests in investment grade corporate debt obligations, such as bonds, notes and debentures. The Fund may also invest up to 10% of its total assets in debt obligations rated below investment grade (securities rated below BBB by standard & Poor’s or Baa by Moody’s). At least 65% of the Fund’s total assets will be invested in income-producing equity securities. The Adviser selects securities which it believes will maintain or increase the Fund’s current income while maintaining a price/earnings ratio below the market.

</R>

In evaluating the current yield of a security, the Adviser considers dividend growth to be most important, followed by capital appreciation. The Adviser actively monitors market activity which impacts dividend decisions. In general, the Fund will sell a security when dividends are no longer expected to increase.

For more information about the Fund’s investment strategies and a more complete description of the securities in which the Fund can invest, please see “Additional Investment Strategies” and “Investment Practices.”

What are the main risks of investing in this Fund? Loss of money is a risk of investing in the Fund. In addition, your investment in the Fund may be subject to the following principal risks:

Market Risk: The possibility that the Fund’s stock holdings will decline in price because of a broad stock market decline. Stock markets generally move in cycles, with periods of rising prices followed by periods of falling prices. The value of your investment will tend to increase or decrease in response to these movements.

Investment Style Risk: The possibility that the securities on which this Fund focuses — the stocks of undervalued, dividend-paying companies — will underperform other kinds of investments or market averages.

Interest Rate Risk: The possibility that the value of the Fund’s investments will decline due to an increase in interest rates or that the Fund’s yield will decrease due to a decrease in interest rates. Credit Risk: The possibility that a bond issuer cannot make timely interest and principal payments on its bonds. The lower a bond’s rating, the greater its credit risk.

The Fund may trade securities actively, which could increase its transaction costs (thereby lowering its performance) and increase the amount of taxes that you pay.

Rotating Index Fund

Fund Summary

Investment Goal To seek to approximate the returns of the broad-based equity market index as determined by the Fund’s Investment Adviser to be the most favorable in a given market environment.

Investment Focus Common stocks and index-based securities

Principal Investment Strategy Attempts to emulate the returns of the broad-based equity index determined by the Adviser to be the most favorable given current economic conditions by investing in the stocks comprising that index or in index-based securities

Share Price Volatility Moderate to High

Investor Profile Long-term investors seeking capital appreciation

Investment Strategy The Huntington Rotating Index Fund seeks to approximate the returns of various broad-based equity market indices as determined by the Fund’s Investment Adviser to be the most favorable in a given market environment.

The Fund will pursue its objective, under normal market conditions, by investing (either directly or through the ownership of domestic index-based securities, as described below) substantially all of its assets in the stocks that comprise the broad-based equity index selected by the Adviser. In determining which broad-based equity index the Fund will seek to emulate, the Adviser will use top-down analysis to evaluate broad economic trends, anticipate shifts in the business cycle, and determine which sectors or industries may benefit the most over the next 12 months. The Fund currently seeks to approximate the returns of the Russell 2000 Index (“Russell 2000”). The Adviser will continuously monitor the market environment and may shift the index that the Fund emulates when the Adviser determines that another broad-based equity index is more favorable given the current market environment.

Until the total assets of the Fund reach $70 million, the Fund will not invest directly in the individual securities which comprise the index selected by the Adviser, but will instead invest indirectly in the index through its acquisition of index-based securities such as iShares Russell 2000 Index Fund, Standard & Poor’s Depository Receipts (SPDRs) and NASDAQ-100 Index Tracking Stock (NASDAQ 100s).

Although the Fund will attempt to remain fully invested in the composite stocks of the selected broad based equity index, for liquidity purposes, the Fund may invest in money market instruments.

Index-based securities are exchange-traded securities that represent ownership in a long-term investment trust that holds a portfolio of common stocks designed to track the price performance and dividend yield of an index, such as the Russell 2000, S&P 500 Index, or the NASDAQ-100 Index.

A broad-based equity index is one that provides investors with a performance indicator of the overall applicable stock market or a substantial portion of the market. Examples include, but are not limited to, the S&P 500 Index, Dow Jones Industrial Average, NASDAQ-100 Index or Russell 2000 Index. Additionally, indexes emphasizing large, medium or small capitalization companies as well as growth or value stocks would also be considered broad-based. An index is not considered to be broad-based if it is composed of securities of firms in a particular industry or group of related industries.

For a more complete description of the securities in which the Fund can invest, please see “Investment Practices.”

What are the main risks of investing in this Fund? Loss of money is a risk of investing in the Fund. In addition, your investment in the Fund may be subject to the following principal risks:

Market Risk: The possibility that the Fund’s stock holdings will decline in price because of a broad stock market decline. Stock markets generally move in cycles, with periods of rising prices followed by periods of falling prices. The value of your investment will tend to increase or decrease in response to these movements.

Investment Style Risk: The possibility that the securities on which this Fund focuses — the stocks of the broad-based equity index selected by the Adviser — will underperform other kinds of investments or market averages.

Small Company Risk: Investing in smaller, lesser-known companies involves greater risk than investing in those that are more established. A small company’s financial well-being may, for example, depend heavily on just a few products or services. In addition, investors may have limited flexibility to buy or sell small company stocks, as compared to those of larger firms.

The Fund may trade securities actively, which could increase its transaction costs (thereby lowering its performance) and increase the amount of taxes that you pay.

Share Price Volatility Moderate

Investor Profile Investors seeking capital appreciation with the potential for higher current income than the average stock fund

Investment Strategy

The Huntington Dividend Capture Fund seeks total return on investment, with dividend income as an important component of that return.

<R>

To pursue its primary goal, the Fund invests at least 65% of its assets in dividend-paying stocks that the Adviser believes are undervalued or out-of-favor. The Adviser intends to invest in common stock, preferred stock and REIT’s (real estate investment trusts) which pay high dividends. The Fund may invest in convertible bonds and other types of hybrid securities (securities that contain aspects of both stocks and bonds). As an additional income source, the Adviser will frequently purchase stocks in a short period prior to the ex-dividend date (the interval between the announcement and the payments of the next dividend).

The companies in which the Fund invests are generally mature, middle and large-capitalization U.S. corporations. In-depth fundamental research (both quantitative and qualitative) confirms the value characteristics of individual stocks and evaluates the company’s future prospects. Quantitative analysis is used to identify stocks that they believe are undervalued relative to the market and to the security’s historic valuations. Factors considered will include fundamental factors such as earnings growth, cash flow and credit quality to identify the best companies. The Adviser then uses a qualitative stock selection model based on earnings expectations and supplemental valuation measures to narrow the list of stocks to the most attractive. The Fund may, under varying market conditions, employ various strategies which involve put and/or call option contracts.

</R>

The Adviser typically begins to pare down a position when the stock has declared an ex-dividend date or is at a valuation level that, in the Adviser’s opinion, leaves little for investor gain. The Adviser may eliminate a stock from the Fund’s portfolio if its long-term fundamentals become unfavorable.

The Fund actively trades its portfolio securities in an attempt to achieve its investment objective. Active trading will cause the Fund to have an increased portfolio turnover rate, which is likely to generate shorter-term gains (losses) for its shareholders, which are taxed at a higher rate than longer-term gains (losses). Actively trading portfolio securities increases the Fund’s trading costs and may have an adverse impact on the Fund’s performance.

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. In these and in other cases, the Fund may not achieve its investment objective.

For a more complete description of the securities in which the Fund can invest, please see “Investment Practices.”

What are the main risks of investing in this Fund? Loss of money is a risk of investing in the Fund. In addition, your investment in the Fund may be subject to the following principal risks:

Market Risk: The possibility that the Fund’s stock holdings will decline in price because of a broad stock market decline. Stock markets generally move in cycles, with periods of rising prices followed by periods of falling prices. The value of your investment will tend to increase or decrease in response to these movements.

Investment Style Risk: The possibility that the securities on which this Fund focuses — the stocks of undervalued, dividend-paying companies — will underperform other kinds of investments or market averages.

Basis Risk: Financial instruments such as options or futures contacts derive their value from an underlying asset such as shares in common stock and price volatility. This relationship between derivative instruments and underlying securities is known as the basis. Basis risk arises when derivative instruments and underlying securities do not fluctuate to the same degree as expected based on historical trends or models.

International Equity Fund

Fund Summary

Investment Goal To seek total return on its assets

Investment Focus Equity securities of companies based outside the U.S.

Principal Investment Strategy Attempts to identify equity securities of companies based outside the U.S. with the best potential for superior long-term investment returns

Share Price Volatility High

Investor Profile Investors who want total return, are willing to accept the increased risks of international investing for the possibility of higher returns, and want exposure to a diversified portfolio of international stocks

Investment Strategy The Fund’s investment objective is to obtain a total return on its assets. The Fund’s total return will consist of two components: (1) changes in the market value of its portfolio securities (both realized and unrealized appreciation); and (2) income received from its portfolio securities. The Fund expects that changes in market value will comprise the largest component of its total return. While there is no assurance that the Fund will achieve its investment objective, it endeavors to do so by following the strategies and policies described in this prospectus. This investment objective may be changed by the Fund’s Trustees without shareholder approval.

The Fund pursues its investment objective by investing at least 80% of its assets in equity securities, 65% of which will be invested in companies based outside the U.S. The Adviser manages the Fund based on the view that international equity markets are inefficient at pricing securities and that careful security selection offers the best potential for superior long-term investment returns. The Adviser uses a “bottom-up” approach to stock selection and selection of industry and country are secondary considerations. The Adviser attempts to purchase securities with value characteristics, consistent with an overall assessment of the economic environment in which the underlying company operates.

The Adviser ranks the relative valuation and recent price performance of a universe of companies. The Adviser then evaluates the most attractively valued portion of this universe using such factors as the as the company’s price-to-earnings ratio, enterprise value, organic growth rates versus growth through acquisition, product niche and management quality. The Adviser also reviews the company’s financial statements and forecasts of earnings. Based on this information, the Adviser evaluates the sustainability of the company’s current growth trends and potential catalysts for increased valuation, based on the company’s potential to add economic value to the enterprise.

The Adviser frequently identifies benchmarks for certain securities such as price-to-earnings ratios or stock prices. Once those benchmarks are achieved, the Adviser will often consider selling all or a portion of the Fund’s holdings to lock in profit. Holdings will also be sold if they fail to meet performance expectations or better investment opportunities are identified.

With respect to the Fund’s investments in developed markets, companies may be grouped together in broad categories called business sectors. The Adviser may emphasize certain business sectors in the portfolio that exhibit stronger growth potential or higher profit margins. The Fund will not invest more than 20% of its assets in companies located in emerging markets. In selecting emerging markets countries in which to invest, the Adviser reviews the country’s economic outlook, its interest and inflation rates, and the political and foreign exchange risk of investing in a particular country. The Adviser then analyzes companies located in particular emerging market countries.

The Fund may temporarily depart from its principal investment strategies by investing its assets in cash, cash items, and shorter-term, higher quality debt securities and similar obligations. It may do this to minimize potential losses and maintain liquidity to meet shareholder redemptions during adverse market conditions. This may cause the Fund to give up greater investment returns to maintain the safety of principal, that is, the original amount invested by shareholders.

For a more complete description of the securities in which the Fund can invest, please see “Investment Practices.”

What are the main risks of investing in this Fund? Loss of money is a risk of investing in the Fund. In addition, your investment in the Fund may be subject to the following principal risks:

Market Risk: The possibility that the Fund’s stock holdings may decline in price because of a broad stock market decline. Markets generally move in cycles, with periods of rising prices followed by periods of falling prices. The value of your investment will tend to increase or decrease in response to these movements.

Investment Style Risk: The possibility that the securities on which this Fund focuses — the stocks of foreign companies — may underperform other kinds of investments or the market as a whole.

Currency Risks: Exchange rates for currencies fluctuate daily. Foreign securities are normally denominated and traded in foreign currencies. As a result, the value of the Fund’s foreign investments and the value of its Shares may be affected favorably or unfavorably by changes in currency exchange rates relative to the U.S. dollar. The combination of currency risk and market risks tends to make securities traded in foreign markets more volatile than securities traded exclusively in the U.S. Additionally, the Fund makes significant investments in securities denominated in the Euro, the new single currency of the European Monetary Union (EMU). Therefore, the exchange rate between the Euro and the U.S. Dollar will have a significant impact on the value of the Fund’s investments.

<R>

Foreign Investment Risk: Investing in foreign markets involves greater risk than investing in the United States. Foreign securities may be affected by such factors as fluctuations in currency exchange rates, incomplete or inaccurate financial information on companies, social upheavals and political actions ranging from tax code changes to governmental collapse. Emerging market securities may be even more susceptible to these risks.

</R>

Custodial Services and Related Investment Costs: Custodial services and other costs relating to investment in international securities markets are generally more expensive than in the U.S. Such markets have settlement and clearance procedures that differ from those in the U.S. In certain markets there have been times when settlements have been unable to keep pace with the volume of securities transactions, making it difficult to conduct such transactions. The inability of the Fund to make intended securities purchases due to settlement problems could cause the Fund to miss attractive investment opportunities. The inability to dispose of a portfolio security caused by settlement problems could result either in losses to the Fund due to a subsequent decline in value of the portfolio security or could result in possible liability to the Fund. In addition, security settlement and clearance procedures in some emerging countries may not fully protect the Fund against loss or theft of its as sets.

Mid Corp America Fund

Fund Summary

Investment Goal To seek long-term capital appreciation by investing primarily in equity securities of companies that are either included in the Russell 3000 Index or have market capitalizations within the range of such included companies

Investment Focus Common stocks

Principal Investment Strategy Attempts to identify companies with outstanding growth characteristics

Share Price Volatility Moderate to high

Investor Profile Long-term investors seeking capital appreciation

Investment Strategy

The Huntington Mid Corp America Fund seeks long-term capital appreciation by investing primarily in a diversified portfolio of securities consisting of common stocks and securities convertible into common stocks such as convertible bonds and convertible preferred stocks.To pursue this goal, the Fund invests primarily in common stocks of companies with market capitalizations at the time of purchase in the range of companies in the Russell 3000 Index.The Fund will mainly focus on the 2000 companies with market capitalization in the middle of the Russell 3000 Index and will normally not invest in the 500 companies with the smallest market capitalization or 500 companies with the largest market capitalization.The Russell 3000 Index represents the top 3,000 NASDAQ, NYSE, and AMEX U.S. domiciled stocks as ranked by their market capitalization.As of June 30, 2001, the Russell 3000 Index statistics were as follows: the average market capitalization was approximately $4.6 billion and the med ian market capitalization was approximately $732 million.The index had a total market capitalization range of approximately $487 billion to $147 million.

In managing the Fund’s portfolio, the Adviser emphasizes both growth and value in seeking small cap to mid cap companies with above-average growth potential or with temporarily depressed prices.As a result, the Fund will invest in a blend of both “growth” and “value” stocks. Factors the Adviser typically considers is selecting individual securities include fundamental analysis, valuation techniques, and technical analysis. Fundamental analysis will focus on qualitative aspects of the company’s product, management, and competitive strategy. Valuation techniques include quantitative screens to review historical earnings, revenue, and cash flow.Technical analysis will be deployed as it relates to the timing of trading the securities.This process will be utilized to identify the most attractive companies in each industry and to evaluate the growth potential of these companies. On an ongoing basis, the Adviser monitors the Fund’s existing positions to d etermine benefits of retaining a particular security.

The Adviser will apply a top down strategy, industries weighted relative to the benchmark and the market outlook. Portfolio optimization programs will be deployed to enhance risk return potential.

The Fund may employ option strategies which utilize puts and/or calls although these strategies are not the primary means by which the Adviser seeks to add value.

The Fund actively trades its portfolio securities in an attempt to achieve its investment objective.Active trading will cause the Fund to have an increased portfolio turnover rate, which is likely to generate shorter-term gains (losses) for its shareholders, which are taxed at a higher rate than longer-term gains (losses).Actively trading portfolio securities increases the Fund’s trading costs and may have an adverse impact on the Fund’s performance.

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. In these and in other cases, the Fund may not achieve its investment objective.

The Fund may also invest in certain other equity securities in addition to those described above. For a more complete description of the various securities in which the Fund may invest, please see the Additional Investment Strategies and Risks or consult the SAI.

For a more complete description of the securities in which the Fund can invest, please see “Investment Practices.”

What are the main risks of investing in this Fund? Loss of money is a risk of investing in the Fund. In addition, your investment in the Fund may be subject to the following principal risks:

<R>

Market Risk: The possibility that the Fund’s stock holdings may decline in price because of a broad stock market decline. Markets generally move in cycles, with periods of rising prices followed by periods of falling prices.

The value of your investment will tend to increase or decrease in response to these movements.

Small/Mid Cap Stock Risk: To the extent that the Fund invests in small cap and mid cap stocks, it takes on additional risks. Small cap and mid cap stocks tend to be less liquid and more volatile than large cap stocks. Smaller companies tend to depend heavily on new products and/or a few products or services and often have less experienced management.

</R>

Investment Style Risk: The possibility that the market segment on which this Fund focuses — value and growth stocks of primarily small to mid cap companies — will underperform other kinds of investments or market averages.

New Economy Fund

Fund Summary

Investment Goal To seek capital appreciation by investing primarily in equity securities of companies engaged in developing products, processes, or services that provide technological or scientific advances and efficiencies

Investment Focus Common stocks of technology and scientific companies

Principal Investment Strategy Long-term capital appreciation

Share Price Volatility High

Investor Profile Long-term investors seeking capital appreciation

Investment Strategy The Huntington New Economy Fund seeks capital appreciation by investing primarily in a diversified portfolio of securities consisting of common stocks and securities convertible into common stocks such as convertible bonds and convertible preferred stocks.

Under normal market conditions, the Fund invests at least 65% of total assets in the equity securities of U.S. and, to a lesser extent, foreign technology and scientific companies.

“New economy” companies are those that are substantially engaged in developing products, processes, or services that provide technological or scientific advances.Those companies may be in any of a variety of industries, such as computer hardware, software, electronic components and systems, telecommunications, Internet, media information services companies, biotechnology, robotics, and energy replacement.They also may include companies in more traditional industries, such as certain consumer products retailers, that have extensively used technological or scientific advances to develop new or to improve products or processes and make them more efficient.

The Fund generally takes a growth approach to selecting stocks, looking for companies that appear poised to grow because of new products, technology or management, as well as new companies that are in the developmental stage. Factors in identifying these companies may include the quality of management, financial strength, a strong position relative to competitors and a stock price that appears reasonable relative to its expected growth rate.The Fund may invest in companies of any size, including small, high growth companies.The Fund also may invest in companies whose shares are being, or recently have been, offered to the public for the first time.

The Fund reserves the right to invest up to 35% of total assets in other securities, such as, corporate bonds and government securities.

The Fund actively trades its portfolio securities in an attempt to achieve its investment objective.Active trading will cause the Fund to have an increased portfolio turnover rate, which is likely to generate shorter-term gains (losses) for its shareholders, which are taxed at a higher rate than longer-term gains (losses).Actively trading portfolio securities increases the Fund’s trading costs and may have an adverse impact on the Fund’s performance.

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. In these and in other cases, the Fund may not achieve its investment objective.

Market Risk: The possibility that the Fund’s stock holdings will decline in price because of a broad stock market decline. Stock markets generally move in cycles, with periods of rising prices followed by periods of falling prices.The value of your investment will tend to increase or decrease in response to these movements.

Investment Style Risk: The possibility that the securities on which this Fund focuses — the stocks of companies focusing on technological and scientific advancements — will underperform other kinds of investments or market averages.The securities in which the Fund invests may be more vulnerable than most stocks to the obsolescence of existing technology, expired patents, short product cycles, price competition, market saturation and new market entrants and may fluctuate in price more widely and rapidly than the market as a whole.These securities may underperform other types of stocks or be difficult to sell when the economy is not robust, during ma rket downturns, or when technology or scientific stocks are out of favor.

Growth Stock Risk: The price of most growth stocks are based on future expectations.As a result, those stocks tend to be more sensitive than value stocks to negative earnings surprises and changes in internal growth rates. Growth stocks in particular may underperform during periods when the market favors value stocks.

Mortgage Securities Fund

Fund Summary

Investment Goal To seek to achieve current income

Investment Focus Mortgage-related securities, including REITs

Principal Investment Strategy Invests in mortgage-related securities, including REITs

Share Price Volatility Moderate

Investor Profile Investors willing to accept the risk of a moderate amount of fluctuation in the value of their investment for the benefit of a higher total return potential

Investment Strategy The Huntington Mortgage Securities Fund seeks to achieve current income.

<R>

The Adviser invests, under normal circumstances, at least 80% of the Fund’s assets in mortgage-related securities, including mortgage Real Estate Investment Trusts (“REITs”).The Adviser especially focuses on securities which it expects to be less susceptible to prepayment of principal.The Adviser endeavors to maintain a dollar-weighted average portfolio life for the Fund of between three and ten years.The Fund may also invest up to 20% of its assets in equity REITs.The Fund will indirectly bear its proportionate share of expenses incurred by REITs in which the Fund invests in addition to the expenses incurred directly by the Fund.

</R>

In making its investment decisions, the Adviser considers various economic factors, Federal Reserve policy, interest rate trends and spreads between different types of fixed income securities. In managing the portfolio, the Adviser monitors the Fund’s cash flow, maturities and interest payments and tracks a variety of other portfolio security statistics.

Mortgage-related securities are securities, including derivative mortgage securities such as collateralized mortgage obligations (CMOs), whose income is generated by payments of principal and interest on pools of mortgage loans and mortgage REITs.

REITs are pooled investment vehicles which invest primarily in income producing real estate or real estate related loans or interest. REITs are generally classified as equity REITs, mortgage REITs or a combination of equity and mortgage REITs. Equity REITs invest the majority of their assets directly in real property and derive income primarily from the collection of rents. Equity REITs can also realize capital gains by selling property that has appreciated in value. Mortgage REITs invest the majority of their assets in real estate mortgages and derive income from the collection of interest payments. Similar to investment companies, REITs are not taxed on income distributed to shareholders provided they comply with several requirements of the Internal Revenue Code (the Code).

For more information about the Fund’s investment strategies and a more complete description of the securities in which the Fund can invest, please see “Additional Investment Strategies” and “Investment Practices.”

What are the main risks of investing in this Fund? Loss of money is a risk of investing in the Fund. In addition, your investment in the Fund may be subject to the following principal risks:

Interest Rate Risk: The possibility that the value of the Fund’s investments will decline due to an increase in interest rates or that the Fund’s yield will decrease due to a decrease in interest rates.

Credit Risk: The possibility that a bond issuer cannot make timely interest and principal payments on its bonds.The lower a bond’s rating, the greater its credit risk.

<R>

Prepayment & Call Risk: If a significant number of the mortgages underlying a mortgage-backed bond are refinanced, the bond may be “prepaid.” Call risk is the possibility that, during periods of declining interest rates, a bond issuer will “call” — or repay —higher-yielding bonds before their stated maturity date. In both cases, investors receive their principal back and are typically forced to reinvest it in bonds that pay lower interest rates, thus reducing income. Rapid changes in prepayment and call rates can cause bond prices and yields to be volatile.

</R>

Extension Risk: As interest rates rise, mortgage-related securities tend to mature later, thus effectively converting shorter-term securities into more volatile long-term securities.This will also affect the Adviser’s ability to manage the average life of the Fund. Real Estate/REIT Risk: The Fund’s investments in REITs are subject to the same risks as direct investments in real estate. Real estate values rise and fall in response to many factors, including local, regional and national economic conditions, the demand for rental property, and interest rates. In addition, REITs may have limited financial resources, may trade less frequently and in limited volume and may be more volatile than other securities.

Prepayment/Call Risk and Extension Risk are more pronounced with respect to derivative mortgage securities and can result in reduced liquidity.The principal derivative mortgage securities in which the Fund invests are collateralized mortgage obligations (CMOs).

The Fund may trade securities actively, which could increase its transaction costs (thereby lowering its performance) and increase the amount of taxes that you pay.

Ohio Tax-Free Fund

Fund Summary

Investment Goal To seek to provide current income exempt from federal income tax and Ohio personal income taxes

Investment Focus Ohio municipal securities

Principal Investment Strategy Invests primarily in investment-grade Ohio municipal securities

Share Price Volatility Low to Moderate

Investor Profile Ohio residents seeking income exempt from federal and state income taxes

<R>

Investment Strategy The Huntington Ohio Tax-Free Fund seeks to provide current income exempt from federal income tax and Ohio state income taxes.

The Adviser invests substantially all of the assets of the Ohio Tax-Free Fund in Ohio tax-exempt securities. As a matter of fundamental policy, under normal circumstances, the Fund will invest its assets so that, at least 80% of the income it distributes will be exempt from federal income tax and Ohio state income tax. The securities selected by the Adviser are: (i) rated in one of the top four categories by a Nationally Recognized Statistical Rating Organization; or (ii) not rated, but deemed by the Adviser to be of comparable quality. In addition, these securities will have remaining maturities of no more than 15 years and the Fund’s anticipated dollar-weighted average maturity will be between four and ten years.The Adviser also establishes a desired yield level for new issues relative to U.S.Treasury securities.

</R>

In managing the portfolio, the Adviser attempts to diversify the Fund’s holdings within Ohio as much as possible. In selecting securities, the Adviser monitors economic activity and interest rate trends, reviews financial information relating to each issuer and looks for attractively priced issues.

For temporary defensive or liquidity purposes, the Fund may invest in securities the interest on which is subject to federal income tax or Ohio personal income taxes.

Ohio tax-exempt securities are debt obligations which (i) are issued by or on behalf of the state of Ohio or its respective authorities, agencies, instrumentalities and political subdivisions, and (ii) produce interest which, in the opinion of bond counsel at the time of issuance, is exempt from federal income tax and Ohio personal income taxes.

For more information about the Fund’s investment strategies and a more complete description of the securities in which the Fund can invest, please see “Additional Investment Strategies” and “Investment Practices.”

What are the main risks of investing in this Fund? Loss of money is a risk of investing in the Fund. In addition, your investment in the Fund may be subject to the following principal risks:

State Specific Risk: By concentrating its investments in Ohio, the Fund may be more vulnerable to unfavorable developments in that state than funds that are more geographically diversified.The economy of Ohio is largely concentrated in agriculture, motor vehicles and equipment, steel, rubber products and household appliances, and therefore tends to be more cyclical than some other states and the nation as a whole.

Diversification Risk: As a non-diversified fund, the Fund may invest a greater percentage of its assets in the securities of a single issuer than do other mutual funds, therefore Fund performance can be significantly affected by the performance of one or a small number of issuers.

Interest-Rate Risk: The possibility that the value of the Fund’s investments will decline due to an increase in interest rates or that the Fund’s yield will decrease due to a decrease in interest rates. Credit Risk: The possibility that a bond issuer cannot make timely interest and principal payments on its bonds.The lower a bond’s rating, the greater its credit risk.

<R>

Prepayment & Call Risk: If a significant number of the mortgages underlying a mortgage-backed bond are refinanced, the bond may be “prepaid.” Call risk is the possibility that, during periods of declining interest rates, a bond issuer will “call” — or repay —higher-yielding bonds before their stated maturity date. In both cases, investors receive their principal back and are typically forced to reinvest it in bonds that pay lower interest rates, thus reducing income. Rapid changes in prepayment and call rates can cause bond prices and yields to be volatile.

Michigan Tax-Free Fund

Fund Summary

Investment Goal To seek to provide investors with current income exempt from both federal and Michigan personal income taxes

Investment Focus Michigan municipal securities

Principal Investment Strategy Invests primarily in investment-grade Michigan municipal securities

Share Price Volatility Low to Moderate

Investor Profile Michigan residents seeking income exempt from federal and state income taxes

<R>

Investment Strategy The Huntington Michigan Tax-Free Fund seeks to provide investors with current income exempt from both federal and Michigan state income taxes.

As a matter of fundamental policy, under normal circumstances, the Fund will invest its assets so that at least 80% of the income it distributes will be exempt from federal income tax and Michigan state income tax. In addition, at least 80% of the Fund’s annual income will be exempt from the alternative minimum tax.The securities selected by the Adviser for investment will have remaining maturities of no more than 15 years.The Adviser also establishes a desired yield level for new issues relative to U.S.Treasury securities.

</R>

In managing the portfolio, the Adviser attempts to diversify the Fund’s holdings within Michigan as much as possible. In selecting securities, the Adviser monitors economic activity and interest rate trends, reviews financial information relating to each issuer and looks for attractively priced issues.

For temporary defensive or liquidity purposes, the Fund may invest in securities the interest on which is subject to federal income tax or Michigan personal income taxes.

Michigan tax-exempt securities are debt obligations which (i) are issued by or on behalf of the state of Michigan or its respective authorities, agencies, instrumentalities and political subdivisions, and (ii) produce interest which, in the opinion of bond counsel at the time of issuance, is exempt from federal income tax and Michigan personal income taxes.

For more information about the Fund’s investment strategies and a more complete description of the securities in which the Fund can invest, please see “Additional Investment Strategies” and “Investment Practices.”

What are the main risks of investing in this Fund? Loss of money is a risk of investing in the Fund. In addition, your investment in the Fund may be subject to the following principal risks:

State Specific Risk: By concentrating its investments in Michigan, the Fund may be more vulnerable to unfavorable developments in that state than funds that are more geographically diversified.The economy of Michigan is principally dependent upon three sectors: manufacturing (particularly durable goods, automotive products and office equipment), tourism and agriculture. It, therefore, tends to be more cyclical than some other states and the nation as a whole.

Diversification Risk: As a non-diversified fund, the Fund may invest a greater percentage of its assets in the securities of a single issuer than do other mutual funds, therefore Fund performance can be significantly affected by the performance of one or a small number of issuers.

Interest Rate Risk: The possibility that the value of the Fund’s investments will decline due to an increase in interest rates or that the Fund’s yield will decrease due to a decrease in interest rates.

Credit Risk: The possibility that a bond issuer cannot make timely interest and principal payments on its bonds.The lower a bond’s rating, the greater its credit risk.

<R>

Prepayment & Call Risk: If a significant number of the mortgages underlying a mortgage-backed bond are refinanced, the bond may be “prepaid.” Call risk is the possibility that, during periods of declining interest rates, a bond issuer will “call” — or repay —higher-yielding bonds before their stated maturity date. In both cases, investors receive their principal back and are typically forced to reinvest it in bonds that pay lower interest rates, thus reducing income. Rapid changes in prepayment and call rates can cause bond prices and yields to be volatile.

</R>

The Fund may trade securities actively, which could increase its transaction costs (thereby lowering its performance) and increase the amount of taxes that you pay.

Investment Strategy The Huntington Fixed Income Securities Fund seeks to achieve high current income through investment in fixed income securities where the average maturity of the Fund will not exceed 10 years.

<R>

The Adviser, under normal circumstances, invests at least 80% of the Fund’s assets in fixed income securities, principally by investing in a combination of corporate debt, such as bonds, notes and debentures, and obligations issued or guaranteed by the U.S. government, its agencies or instrumentalities.The selection of corporate debt obligations is limited to those: (i) rated in one of the top four categories by a Nationally Recognized Statistical Rating Organization or (ii) not rated, but deemed by the Adviser to be of comparable quality.Within these parameters, the Adviser focuses on securities which offer the highest level of income. For all types of investments, the Adviser considers various economic factors, Federal Reserve policy, interest rate trends, spreads between different types of fixed income securities and the credit quality of existing holdings.

</R>

In managing the portfolio, the Adviser monitors the Fund’s cash flow, maturities and interest payments and tracks a variety of other portfolio security statistics.The Adviser also follows closely new issue and secondary activity in the corporate debt market.

Investor Profile Investors willing to accept the risk of a low to moderate amount of fluctuation in the value of their investment for the benefit of a higher total return

Investment Strategy The Huntington Intermediate Government Income Fund seeks to provide investors with a high level of current income.

<R>

The Adviser invests primarily in obligations issued or guaranteed by the U.S. government, its agencies or instrumentalities, including mortgage-related securities. The Adviser, under normal circumstances, invests at least 80% of the Fund’s assets in U.S. government securities. The Fund will maintain a dollar-weighted average maturity of not less than three nor more than ten years.Within this range, the Adviser focuses on securities which offer the highest level of income. In general, in order to reduce volatility during periods of interest rate fluctuation, the Adviser invests in securities with a wide range of intermediate maturities. For all types of investments, the Adviser considers various economic factors, Federal Reserve policy, interest rate trends and spreads between different types of fixed income securities.

</R>

In managing the portfolio, the Adviser monitors the Fund’s cash flow, maturities and interest payments and tracks a variety of other portfolio security statistics.

Mortgage-related securities are securities, including derivative mortgage securities such as collateralized mortgage obligations (CMOs), whose income is generated by payments of principal and interest on pools of mortgage loans.

For more information about the Fund’s investment strategies and a more complete description of the securities in which the Fund can invest, please see “Additional Investment Strategies” and “Investment Practices.”

What are the main risks of investing in this Fund? Loss of money is a risk of investing in the Fund. In addition, your investment in the Fund may be subject to the following principal risks:

Interest Rate Risk: The possibility that the value of the Fund’s investments will decline due to an increase in interest rates or that the Fund’s yield will decrease due to a decrease in interest rates.

<R>

Prepayment & Call Risk: If a significant number of the mortgages underlying a mortgage-backed bond are refinanced, the bond may be “prepaid.” Call risk is the possibility that, during periods of declining interest rates, a bond issuer will “call” — or repay —higher-yielding bonds before their stated maturity date. In both cases, investors receive their principal back and are typically forced to reinvest it in bonds that pay lower interest rates, thus reducing income. Rapid changes in prepayment and call rates can cause bond prices and yields to be volatile.

</R>

Reinvestment Risk: As prepayment increases as a result of lower interest rates, the proceeds from maturing mortgage-related securities will be reinvested at lower interest rates, thus reducing income.

Extension Risk: As interest rates rise, mortgage-related securities tend to mature later, thus effectively converting shorter-term securities into more volatile long-term securities.This will also affect the Adviser’s ability to manage the average life of the Fund. The above risks are more pronounced with respect to derivative mortgage securities and can result in reduced liquidity.The principal derivative mortgage securities in which the Intermediate Government Income Fund invests are collateralized mortgage obligations (CMOs).

The Fund may trade securities actively, which could increase its transaction costs (thereby lowering its performance) and increase the amount of taxes that you pay.

Investment Strategy The Huntington Short/Intermediate Fixed Income Securities Fund seeks to achieve current income through investment in fixed income securities with a maximum maturity or average life for individual issues of 5 years or less at the time of purchase and a dollar-weighted average portfolio maturity of more than 2 but less than 5 years.

The Adviser invests primarily in corporate debt and U.S. Government securities.The selection of corporate debt obligations is limited to those: (i) rated in one of the top four categories by a Nationally Recognized Statistical Rating Organization or (ii) not rated, but deemed by the Adviser to be of comparable quality. For all types of investments, the Adviser considers various economic factors, Federal Reserve policy, interest rate trends, spreads between different types of fixed income securities and the credit quality of existing holdings.

In managing the portfolio, the Adviser monitors the Fund’s cash flow, maturities and interest payments and tracks a variety of other portfolio security statistics.The Adviser also follows closely new issue and secondary activity in the corporate debt market.

For more information about the Fund’s investment strategies and a more complete description of the securities in which the Fund can invest, please see “Additional Investment Strategies” and “Investment Practices.”

What are the main risks of investing in this Fund? Loss of money is a risk of investing in the Fund. In addition, your investment in the Fund may be subject to the following principal risks:

Interest Rate Risk: The possibility that the value of the Fund’s investments will decline due to an increase in interest rates or that the Fund’s yield will decrease due to a decrease in interest rates.

Credit Risk: The possibility that a bond issuer cannot make timely interest and principal payments on its bonds.The lower a bond’s rating, the greater its credit risk.

The Fund may trade securities actively, which could increase its transaction costs (thereby lowering its performance) and increase the amount of taxes that you pay.

Shareholder Information

Before you invest, we encourage you to carefully read the Fund profiles included in this prospectus and consider which Funds are appropriate for your particular financial situation, risk tolerance and goals. As always, your financial representative can provide you with valuable assistance in making this decision. He or she can also help you choose which of the Fund share classes we offer is right for you.

Choosing a Share Class

The Huntington Funds offers different classes of Fund Shares, each of which has different expenses and other characteristics. One class of Fund Shares — Trust — is offered in this prospectus. Three other classes of Fund Shares — Investment A Shares, Investment B Shares, and Interfund Shares of the Money Market Fund are offered in separate prospectuses. To choose the one that is best suited to your needs and goals, consider the amount of money you want to invest, how long you expect to invest it and whether you plan to make additional investments. The following are some of the main characteristics of Trust Shares:

Trust Shares

  • No sales charges.
  • No Distribution (12b-1) fees
  • Available only to fiduciary, advisory, agency and other similar clients of The Huntington National Bank, its affiliates or correspondent banks.

For the actual past expenses of the Trust Shares, see the individual Fund profiles earlier in this prospectus.

The Funds also offer Investment A Shares, Investment B Shares, and the Money Market Fund offers Interfund Shares. Each of these classes has its own expense structure. Investment A and Investment B Shares are available to investors who are not otherwise eligible for Trust Shares. Interfund Shares are available only for purchase by the Huntington Equity Funds and the Huntington Income Funds.

Distribution of the Funds

You may purchase Trust Shares of all other Funds offered by this prospectus on any business day when both the Federal Reserve Bank and the New York Stock Exchange are open.

</R>

What Shares Cost

Money Market Funds

<R>

The offering price of a Trust Share is its net asset value (determined after the order is considered received). The Trust calculates the net asset value per share for each Money Market Fund offered in this prospectus twice a day, at 10:30 a.m. Eastern time for the Ohio Municipal Money Market Fund and the Florida Tax-Free Money Fund and at 1:00 p.m. Eastern Time for the Money Market Fund and the U.S. Treasury Money Market Fund and as of the close of regular trading on the New York Stock Exchange (normally, 4:00 p.m. Eastern Time) for each Money Market Fund, on each day that the Exchange is open.

In addition, the Money Market Funds reserve the right to allow the purchase, redemption, and exchange of shares on any other day on which regular trading in money market instruments is taking place. On any day that the bond markets close early, such as days in advance of holidays or in the event of any emergency, the Money Market Funds reserve the right to advance the time net asset value is determined and by which purchase, redemption, and exchange orders must be received on that day, to the time of such closing. Please call the Huntington Funds at (800) 253-0412, if you have any questions about purchasing shares.

</R>

The Trust attempts to stabilize the net asset value per share for each of the Money Market Funds at $1.00 per share by valuing its portfolio securities using the amortized cost method. These valuation methods are more fully described in the Trust’s Statement of Additional Information.

Your order for purchase is priced at the next net asset value calculated after your order is received. With regard to investments in the Money Market Fund or the U.S. Treasury Money Market Fund, you will begin earning dividends on the day your order is received if the Trust receives payment in federal funds before 1:00 p.m. (Eastern Time). The applicable cut-off time for the Ohio Municipal Money Market Fund and the Florida Tax-free Money Fund is 10:30 a.m. (Eastern Time). Investments in the money market funds made by check,ACH or SIP are considered received when the payment is converted to federal funds (normally the next business day).

All Other Funds

The offering price of a Trust Share is its net asset value (determined after the order is considered received). The Trust calculates the net asset value per share for each Fund (other than the Money Market Funds) offered in this prospectus as of the close of regular trading on the New York Stock Exchange (normally, 4:00 p.m. Eastern Time) on each day that the Exchange is open.

The Trust calculates net asset value for each of the Funds (other than the Money Market Funds) offered by this prospectus by valuing securities held based on market value. These valuation methods are more fully described in the Trust’s Statement of Additional Information.

</R>

Tax Consequences

There are many important tax consequences associated with investment in the Funds offered by this Prospectus. The following is a brief summary of certain income tax consequences relating to an investment in the Funds, and shareholders are urged to consult their own tax advisors regarding the taxation of their investments under federal, state and local laws.

Federal Income Taxes

Taxation of Shareholder Transactions

<R>

An exchange of a Fund’s shares for shares of another Fund will be treated as a sale of the Fund’s shares and, as with all sales, exchanges or redemptions of Fund shares, any gain on the transaction will be subject to federal income tax.

</R>

Taxation of Distributions

Each of the Funds offered by this prospectus intends to distribute substantially all of its net investment income (including net capital gains and tax-exempt interest income, if any) to its shareholders at least annually. Unless otherwise exempt or as discussed below, shareholders are required to pay federal income tax on any dividends and other distributions, including capital gains distributions received. This applies whether dividends and other distributions are received in cash or as additional shares. Distributions representing long-term capital gains, if any, will be taxable to shareholders as long-term capital gains no matter how long a shareholder has held the shares. Distributions are taxable to shareholders even if they are paid from income or gains earned by a Fund before a shareholder’s investment (and thus were included in the price paid).

Exempt-Interest Dividends

If, at the end of each quarter of its taxable year, at least 50% of the value of a Fund’s assets consists of obligations the interest on which is excludable from gross income, the Fund may pay “exempt-interest dividends” to its shareholders. Generally, exempt-interest dividends will be excluded from gross income for federal income tax purposes. However, exempt-interest dividends attributable to investments in certain “private activity” bonds will be treated as tax preference items in computing the alternative minimum tax. Also, a portion of all other exempt-interest dividends earned by a corporation may be subject to the alternative minimum tax. In certain limited instances, the portion of Social Security or Railroad Retirement benefits that may be subject to federal income taxation may be affected by the amount of tax-exempt interest income, including exempt-interest dividends, received by a shareholder.

Avoid Withholding Tax

Each Fund is required to withhold a portion of taxable dividends, capital gains distributions and proceeds of sales, exchanges, or redemptions paid to any shareholder who has not provided the Fund with his or her certified Taxpayer Identification Number (your Social Security Number for individual investors) in compliance with IRS rules. To avoid this withholding, make sure you provide your correct Tax Identification Number.

State Income Taxes

In addition to the exemption from federal income taxes, the income dividends distributed by the Ohio Municipal Money Market Fund and the Ohio Tax-Free Fund are generally intended to be exempt from Ohio personal income taxes. Similarly, the income dividends distributed by the Michigan Tax-Free Fund are generally intended to be exempt from Michigan city and state personal income taxes and the Michigan single business tax. For any portion of these Funds not invested in tax-exempt securities, distributions of income dividends may be subject to state taxation.

With respect to the Florida Tax-free Money Fund, the state of Florida does not currently impose an income tax on individuals, but does impose such a tax on corporations. Consequently, the income dividends distributed by the Florida Tax-free Money Fund will not be subject to Florida taxation for individuals, but may be taxable to corporate shareholders (including limited liability company shareholders that are taxed as corporations for federal income tax purposes).

The Florida Tax-free Money Fund is also intended to exempt its shareholders from Florida’s intangible personal property tax. If on the last business day of any year, the Florida Tax-free Money Fund consists solely of notes, bonds and other obligations issued by the State of Florida or its municipalities, counties and other taxing districts, or by the U.S. government, its agencies and certain U.S. Territories and possessions (such as Guam, Puerto Rico and the Virgin Islands) the Fund’s shares will be exempt from the Florida intangible tax payable in the following year.

In order to take advantage of the exemption from the intangible tax in any year, the Florida Tax-free Money Fund may need to sell non-exempt assets held in its portfolio during the year and reinvest the proceeds in exempt assets on or before the last business day of the calendar year. Transactions costs involved in restructuring a fund in this manner would likely reduce investment return and might exceed any increased investment return the Fund achieved by investing in nonexempt assets during the year.

Financial Highlights

The financial highlights tables that follow are intended to help you understand a Fund’s financial performance for the fiscal years ended December 31. Certain information reflects financial results for a single Fund unit.

Additional Investment Strategies

Fundamental Investment Policies

<R>

The following are fundamental policies of the indicated Funds:

</R>

Ohio Municipal Money Market Fund

  • under normal circumstances, at least 80% of the income distributed will be exempt from federal regular income tax and the personal income taxes imposed by the State of Ohio and Ohio municipalities.

Florida Tax-Free Money Fund

  • under normal circumstances, at least 80% of the income distributed will be exempt from federal regular income tax.

Growth Fund

  • at least 65% of total assets invested in equity securities.

Rotating Index Fund

  • at least 80% of total assets invested, directly or indirectly through index-based securities, in stocks comprising the broad-based equity index that the Adviser has chosen to emulate.

Ohio Tax-Free Fund

  • under normal circumstances, at least 80% of the income distributed will be exempt from federal income tax and Ohio state income tax.
  • no investment in securities which generate income treated as a preference item for federal alternative minimum tax purposes.

Michigan Tax-Free Fund

  • under normal circumstances, at least 80% of the income distributed will be exempt from federal income tax and Michigan state income tax.

Short/Intermediate Fixed Income Securities Fund

  • at least 65% of total assets in fixed income securities.

<R>

Additional Investment Policies

Rotating Index Fund. For the period that the Fund is invested in any particular broad-based equity index, the Fund attempts to achieve a correlation of at least 95% between the total return of its nets assets before expenses and the total return of the indexes selected by the Adviser. Perfect correlation would be 100%. Tracking accuracy will be monitored by the Adviser and appropriate adjustments will be made to the portfolio if the targeted correlation is not achieved.

</R>

Investors often look to indexes as a standard of performance. Indexes are model portfolios, groups of stocks or bonds selected to represent not actual securities, but an entire market. One way an index fund can seek to match an index’s performance, before fees and expenses, is through buying all the index’s securities in the same proportion as they are reflected in the index.

As discussed in the Fund Summary, until total assets of the Fund reach $70 million, the Fund will not invest directly in the individual securities which comprise the selected broad-based equity index, but instead will invest indirectly in the index through its acquisition of index-based securities. Investing through the Fund in index-based securities involves certain additional expenses and certain tax results which would not be present in a direct investment in individual securities.

By investing in the index-based securities indirectly through the Fund (for the period in which the Fund does not have sufficient assets to invest directly in index stocks), an investor will bear not only a proportionate share of the expenses of the Fund, but also, indirectly, similar expenses of the issuer of the index-based security. In addition, an investor will bear his or her proportionate share of expenses, if any, related to the distribution of the Fund’s shares, and may also indirectly bear transaction fees paid by the Fund incurred in the purchase of index-based securities. Finally, an investor should recognize that, as a result of the Fund’s policies of investing in index-based securities, he/she may receive taxable capital gains distributions to a greater extent than would be the case if he/she invested directly in the securities comprising the index.

Investment Practices

The Funds invest in a variety of securities and employ a number of investment techniques. Each security and technique involves certain risks. The following table describes the securities and techniques the Funds use, as well as the main risks they pose. Equity securities are subject mainly to market risk. Fixed-income securities are subject primarily to market, credit and prepayment risk. Following the table is a more complete discussion of risk. You may also consult the Statement of Additional Information for more details about these and other securities in which the Funds may invest.

NASDAQ-100 Index Tracking Stock (“NASDAQ 100s”), represent ownership        
in an investment portfolio of common stocks designed to track the price,        
performance and dividend yield of an index, such as the Russell 2000 Index,        
the S&P 500 Index or the NASDAQ-100 Index. Index-based securities        
entitle a holder to receive proportionate quarterly cash distributions        
corresponding to the dividends that accrue to the index        
stocks in the underlying portfolio, less expenses.

Glossary of Investment Risks

This section discusses the risks associated with the securities and investment techniques listed above, as well as the risks mentioned under the heading “What are the main risks of investing in this Fund?” in each Fund profile. Because of these risks, the value of the securities held by the Funds may fluctuate, as will the value of your investment in the Funds. Certain types of investments and Funds are more susceptible to these risks than others.

Credit Risk. The risk that the issuer of a security, or the counterparty to a contract, will default or otherwise become unable to honor a financial obligation. Generally speaking, the lower a security’s credit rating, the higher its credit risk. If a security’s credit rating is downgraded, its price tends to decline sharply, especially as it becomes more probable that the issuer will default.

Foreign Investment Risk. Compared with investing in the United States, investing in foreign markets involves a greater degree and variety of risk. Investors in foreign markets may face delayed settlements, currency controls and adverse economic developments as well as higher overall transaction costs. In addition, fluctuations in the U.S. Dollar’s value versus other currencies may erode or reverse gains from investments denominated in foreign currencies or widen losses. For instance, foreign governments may limit or prevent investors from transferring their capital out of a country. This may affect the value of your investment in the country that adopts such currency controls. Exchange rate fluctuations also may impair an issuer’s ability to repay U.S. Dollar denominated debt, thereby increasing credit risk of such debt. Finally, the value of foreign securities may be affected by incomplete or inaccurate financial information about their issuers, social upheavals or political actions ranging from tax code changes to governmental collapse. These risks are greater in the emerging markets than in the developed markets of Europe and Japan.

<R>

Investment Style Risk. The risk that the particular type of investment on which a Fund focuses (such as small cap value stocks or large-cap growth stocks) may underperform other asset classes or the overall market. Individual market segments tend to go through cycles of performing better or worse than other types of securities. These periods may last as long as several years. Additionally, a particular market segment could fall out of favor with investors, causing a Fund that focuses on that market segment to underperform those that favor other kinds of securities.

</R>

Leverage Risk. The risk associated with securities or investment practices that magnify small index or market movements into large changes in value. Leverage is often associated with investments in derivatives, but also may be embedded directly in the characteristics of other securities.

Liquidity Risk. The risk that a security may be difficult or impossible to sell at the time and price the seller wishes. The seller may have to accept a lower price for the security, sell other securities instead, or forego a more attractive investment opportunity. All of this could hamper the management or performance of a Fund.

Management Risk. The risk that a strategy used by a Fund’s portfolio manager may fail to produce the intended result. This includes the risk that changes in the value of a hedging instrument will not match those of the asset being hedged.

<R>

Market Risk. The risk that a security’s market value may decline, sometimes rapidly and unpredictably. These fluctuations may cause a security to be worth less than the price the investor originally paid for it, or less than it was worth at an earlier time. Market risk may affect a single issuer, industrial sector or the market as a whole. For fixed-income securities, market risk is largely influenced by changes in interest rates. Rising interest rates typically cause the value of bonds to decrease, while falling rates typically cause the value of bonds to increase.

Mid/Small Cap Stock Risk. To the extent that the Fund invests in small cap and mid cap stocks, it takes on additional risks. Small cap and mid cap stocks tend to be less liquid and more volatile than large cap stocks. Smaller companies tend to depend heavily on new products and/or a few products or services and often have less experienced management.

</R>

Political Risk. The risk of investment losses attributable to unfavorable governmental or political actions, seizure of foreign deposits, changes in tax or trade statutes, and governmental collapse and war.

Prepayment & Call Risk. The risk that a security’s principal will be repaid at an unexpected time. Prepayment and call risk are related, but differ somewhat. Prepayment risk is the chance that a large number of the mortgages underlying a mortgage-backed security will be refinanced sooner than the investor had expected. Call risk is the possibility that an issuer will “call”—or repay—a high-yielding bond before the bond’s maturity date. In both cases, the investor is usually forced to reinvest the proceeds in a security with a lower yield. This turnover may result in taxable capital gains and, in addition, may lower a portfolio’s income. If an investor paid a premium for the security, the prepayment may result in an unexpected capital loss.

Prepayment and call risk generally increase when interest rates decline, and can make a security’s yield as well as its market price more volatile. Generally speaking, the longer a security’s maturity, the greater the prepayment and call risk it poses.

<R>

Real Estate/REIT Risk. The Fund’s investments in REITs are subject to the same risks as direct investments in real estate. Real estate values rise and fall in response to many factors, including local, regional and national economic conditions, the demand for rental property, and interest rates. When economic growth is slowing, demand for property decreases and prices may fall. Rising interest rates, which drive up mortgage and financing costs, can inhibit construction, purchases, and sales of property. Property values could decrease because of overbuilding, extended vacancies, increase in property taxes and operating expenses, zoning laws, environmental regulations, clean-up of and liability for environmental hazards, uninsured casualty or condemnation losses, or a general decline in neighborhood values. The Fund’s investment may decline in response to declines in property values or other adverse changes to the real estate market. In addition, REITs may have limited financial resources, may trade less frequently and in limited volume and may be more volatile than other securities.

</R>

Regulatory Risk. The risk that federal and state laws may restrict an investor from seeking recourse when an issuer has defaulted on the interest and/or principal payments it owes on its obligations. These laws include restrictions on foreclosures, redemption rights after foreclosure, Federal and state bankruptcy and debtor relief laws, restrictions on “due on sale” clauses, and state usury laws.

Small-Company Stock Risk. Investing in small companies is generally more risky than investing in large companies, for a variety of reasons. Many small companies are young and have limited track records. They also may have limited product lines, markets or financial resources. They may, in addition, be more vulnerable to adverse business or economic developments than larger companies. Stocks issued by small companies tend to be less liquid and more volatile than stocks of larger companies or the market averages in general. In addition, small companies may not be well-known to the investing public, may not have institutional ownership, and may have only cyclical, static or moderate growth prospects. If a fund concentrates on small companies, its performance may be more volatile than that of a fund that invests primarily in larger companies.

Tax Risk. The risk that the issuer of a security will fail to comply with certain requirements of the Internal Revenue Code, which would cause adverse tax consequences for the issuer and potential losses for its investors.

Zero Coupon Risk. The market prices of securities structured as zero coupon or pay-in-kind securities are generally affected to a greater extent by interest rate changes. These securities tend to be more volatile than securities that pay interest periodically.

Introduction

Each Huntington Fund is a mutual fund. A mutual fund pools shareholders’ money and, using professional investment managers, invests it in securities such as stocks and bonds. Before you look at specific Huntington Funds, you should know a few basics about investing in mutual funds.

The value of your investment in a mutual fund is based on the market prices of the securities the mutual fund holds. These prices change daily due to economic trends and other developments that generally affect securities markets, as well as those that affect particular firms and other types of issuers. These price movements, also called volatility, vary depending on the types of securities a mutual fund owns and the markets where these securities trade.

As with other investments, you could lose money on your investment in a mutual fund. Your investment in the Huntington Funds is not a deposit or an obligation of The Huntington National Bank, its affiliates or any bank. It is not insured by the FDIC or any other government agency.

Each Fund has its own investment goal and strategies for reaching that goal. There is no guarantee that a Fund will achieve its goal. Before investing, make sure that the Fund’s goal matches your own. Each Fund’s investment goal is fundamental and may be changed only by a vote of a majority of the Fund’s outstanding shares. Unless otherwise noted, each Fund’s investment strategies are not fundamental and may be changed by the Trust’s Board of Trustees.

The portfolio manager invests each Fund’s assets in a way that he or she believes will help the Fund achieve its goal. A manager’s judgments about the securities markets, economy and companies, and his or her investment selection, may cause a Fund to underperform other funds with similar objectives.

Share Price Volatility Low

Investor Profile Short-term or risk averse investors seeking our typically highest-yielding money market fund

Investment Strategy The Huntington Money Market Fund seeks to maximize current income while preserving capital and maintaining liquidity by investing in a portfolio of high quality money market instruments.

<R>

The Adviser strives to maintain a $1.00 net asset value per share for the Money Market Fund by investing in commercial paper and other short-term money market instruments for the Money Market Fund which are either rated in the highest rating category by a Nationally Recognized Statistical Rating Organization or unrated and deemed to be of comparable quality by the Adviser. In managing the portfolio, the Adviser determines an appropriate maturity range for the Fund (currently between 25 and 60 days) and each individual security held and endeavors to diversify the portfolio across market sectors. The Adviser employs a top-down analysis of economic and market factors to select Fund investments. In addition, the Adviser analyzes cash flows, maturities, settlements, tax payments, yields and credit quality and monitors new issue calendars for potential purchases.

</R>

For a more complete description of the securities in which the Fund can invest, please see “Investment Practices.”

What are the main risks of investing in this Fund? Loss of money is a risk of investing in the Fund. In addition, your investment in the Fund may be subject to the following principal risks:

Interest-Rate Risk: The possibility that the value of the Fund’s investments will decline due to an increase in interest rates, or that the Fund’s yield will decrease due to a decline in interest rates.

Credit Risk: The possibility that an issuer cannot make timely interest and principal payments on its securities. In general, the lower a security’s credit rating, the higher its credit risk.

<R>

For more information about risks, please see the “Glossary of Investment Risks.”

</R>

An investment in the Fund is not a deposit or an obligation of The Huntington National Bank, its affiliates or any bank, and it is not insured or guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation 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.

Yield

The income a fund generates is commonly referred to as its “yield.” For money market funds, yield is a more useful indication than total return of how a portfolio is performing. As a result, advertisements and other communications about the Huntington Money Market Fund will typically mention the portfolio’s yield. There are various types of yield, including current or 7-day yield and effective yield. All mutual funds must use the same formulas to calculate each of these yields.

The formula for effective yield assumes that investors take advantage of compounding by reinvesting their dividends; current or seven-day yield does not make the same assumption. As a result, a portfolio’s effective yield typically will be slightly higher than its current or seven-day yield. Both types of yield will tend to fluctuate daily due to such factors as a fund’s interest-rate exposure as well as the type and credit quality of its portfolio holdings.

To obtain current yield information for the Fund, please call 1-800-253-0412.

Ohio Municipal Money Market Fund

Fund Summary

Investment Goal To seek to provide income exempt from both federal regular income tax and Ohio personal income taxes while preserving capital and maintaining liquidity

Investment Focus Ohio tax-free money market securities

Principal Investment Strategy Attempts to invest in high-quality, short-term Ohio tax-free securities

Share Price Volatility Low

Investor Profile Ohio residents seeking income exempt from federal and Ohio state personal income taxes

Investment Strategy The Huntington Ohio Municipal Money Market Fund seeks to provide income exempt from both federal regular income tax and Ohio personal income taxes while preserving capital and maintaining liquidity.

The Adviser strives to maintain a $1.00 net asset value per share for the Ohio Municipal Money Market Fund by investing substantially all of the Fund’s assets in short-term Ohio tax-exempt securities which are either rated in the highest rating category by a Nationally Recognized Statistical Rating Organization or unrated and deemed to be of comparable quality by the Adviser. In managing the portfolio, the Adviser determines an appropriate maturity range for the Fund (currently between 35 and 80 days) and each individual security held and endeavors to diversify the portfolio’s holdings within Ohio as much as possible. In addition, the Adviser analyzes cash flows, maturities, settlements, tax payments, yields and credit quality and monitors new issue calendars for potential purchases.

For temporary defensive or liquidity purposes, the Fund may invest in securities the interest on which is subject to federal income tax or Ohio personal income taxes.

Ohio tax-exempt securities are debt obligations which (i) are issued by or on behalf of the state of Ohio or its respective authorities, agencies, instrumentalities and political subdivisions, and (ii) produce interest which, in the opinion of bond counsel at the time of issuance, is exempt from federal income tax and Ohio personal income taxes.

For more information about the Fund’s investment strategies and a more complete description of the securities in which the Fund can invest, please see “Additional Investment Strategies” and “Investment Practices.”

What are the main risks of investing in this Fund? Loss of money is a risk of investing in the Fund. In addition, your investment in the Fund may be subject to the following principal risks:

State Specific Risk: By concentrating its investments in Ohio, the Fund may be more vulnerable to unfavorable developments in that state than funds that are more geographically diversified. The economy of Ohio is largely concentrated in agriculture, motor vehicles and equipment, steel, rubber products and household appliances, and therefore tends to be more cyclical than some other states and the nation as a whole.

Diversification Risk: As a non-diversified fund, the Fund may invest a greater percentage of its assets in the securities of a single issuer than do other mutual funds, therefore Fund performance can be significantly affected by the performance of one or a small number of issuers.

Interest-Rate Risk: The possibility that the Fund’s investments will decline in value due to an increase in interest rates, or that the Fund’s yield will decrease due to a decline in interest rates.

Credit Risk: The possibility that an issuer cannot make timely interest and principal payments on its obligations. The lower a security’s rating, the greater its credit risk.

<R>

For more information about risks, please see the “Glossary of Investments Risks.”

<R>

An investment in the Fund is not a deposit or an obligation of The Huntington National Bank, its affiliates or any bank, and it is not insured or guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation 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.

Yield

The income a fund generates is commonly referred to as its “yield.” For money market funds, yield is a more useful indication than total return of how a portfolio is performing. As a result, advertisements and other communications about the Huntington Ohio Municipal Money Market Fund will typically mention the portfolio’s yield. There are various types of yield, including current or 7-day yield and effective yield. All mutual funds must use the same formulas to calculate each of these yields.

The formula for effective yield assumes that investors take advantage of compounding by reinvesting their dividends; current or seven-day yield does not make the same assumption. As a result, a portfolio’s effective yield typically will be slightly higher than its current or seven-day yield. Both types of yield will tend to fluctuate daily due to such factors as a fund’s interest-rate exposure as well as the type and credit quality of its portfolio holdings.

Florida Tax-Free Money Fund

Investor Profile Florida residents seeking income exempt from federal personal income tax and Florida intangible personal property tax

Investment Strategy The Huntington Florida Tax-free Money Fund seeks to provide the highest level of interest income exempt from federal income tax, consistent with liquidity and stability of principal.

The Adviser strives to maintain a $1.00 net asset value per share for the Florida Tax-Free Money Fund by investing substantially all of the Fund’s assets in short-term Florida tax-exempt securities which are either rated in the highest rating category by a Nationally Recognized Statistical Rating Organization or unrated and deemed to be of comparable quality by the Adviser.

In managing the portfolio, the Adviser determines an appropriate maturity range for the Fund (currently between 35 and 80 days) and each individual security held and endeavors to diversify the portfolio’s holdings within Florida as much as possible. In addition, the Adviser analyzes cash flows, maturities, settlements, tax payments, yields and credit quality and monitors new issue calendars for potential purchases.

As part of the Adviser’s strategy to take advantage of the exemption from Florida’s intangible tax in any year, the Adviser may engage, on an annual basis, in significant portfolio restructuring to sell non-exempt assets. Transaction costs involved in such restructuring may adversely affect the Fund’s performance and possibly offset any gains achieved by investing in the assets sold.

For temporary defensive or liquidity purposes, the Fund may invest in securities the interest on which is subject to federal income tax.

Florida tax-exempt securities are debt obligations which (i) are issued by or on behalf of the state of Florida or its respective authorities, agencies, instrumentalities and political subdivisions, and (ii) produce interest which, in the opinion of bond counsel at the time of issuance, is exempt from federal income tax and the value of which is exempt from the Florida intangible personal property tax.

What are the main risks of investing in this Fund? Loss of money is a risk of investing in the Fund. In addition, your investment in the Fund may be subject to the following principal risks:

State Specific Risk: By concentrating its investments in Florida, the Fund may be more vulnerable to unfavorable developments in that state than funds that are more geographically diversified. The economy of Florida is largely concentrated in agriculture, tourism and construction and is adversely affected by severe weather conditions. It is also impacted by changes in the economies of Central and South America.

Diversification Risk: As a non-diversified fund, the Fund may invest a greater percentage of its assets in the securities of a single issuer than do other mutual funds, therefore Fund performance can be significantly affected by the performance of one or a small number of issuers.

Interest-Rate Risk: The possibility that the Fund’s investments will decline in value due to an increase in interest rates, or that the Fund’s yield will decrease due to a decline in interest rates.

Credit Risk: The possibility that an issuer cannot make timely interest and principal payments on its obligations. The lower a security’s rating, the greater its credit risk.

Fund Summary

Investment Goal To seek to achieve long-term capital appreciation primarily through investing in equity securities

Investment Focus Common stocks of medium to large companies

Principal Investment Strategy Seeks to invest in companies offering above-average growth potential

Share Price Volatility Moderate to High

Investor Profile Long-term investors seeking capital appreciation

Investment Strategy The Huntington Growth Fund seeks to achieve long-term capital appreciation primarily through investing in equity securities.

The Adviser intends to invest in common stock and other equity securities, such as preferred stock, of medium or large companies which it believes offer opportunities for growth. The Adviser occasionally invests in established companies which present growth opportunities and it believes have temporarily depressed prices.

In selecting investments, the Adviser reviews historical earnings, revenue and cash flow to identify the best companies in each industry and to evaluate the growth potential of these companies. On an ongoing basis, the Adviser also monitors the Fund’s existing positions to determine the benefits of retention.

For more information about the Fund’s investment strategies and a more complete description of the securities in which the Fund can invest, please see “Additional Investment Strategies” and “Investment Practices.”

What are the main risks of investing in this Fund? Loss of money is a risk of investing in the Fund. In addition, your investment in the Fund may be subject to the following principal risks:

Market Risk: The possibility that the Fund’s stock holdings will decline in price because of a general decline in the stock market. Markets generally move in cycles, with periods of rising prices followed by periods of falling prices. The value of your investment will tend to increase or decrease in response to these movements.

Investment Style Risk: The possibility that the kind of stocks on which this Fund focuses — those of medium to large US growth companies — will underperform other types of stock investments or the market as a whole.

The Fund may trade securities actively, which could increase its transaction costs (thereby lowering its performance) and increase the amount of taxes that you pay.

Income Equity Fund

Fund Summary

Investment Goal To seek to achieve high current income and moderate appreciation of capital primarily through investment in income-producing equity securities

Investment Focus Common and preferred stocks

Principal Investment Strategy Attempts to identify stocks that pay high dividends

Share Price Volatility Moderate

Investor Profile Investors seeking capital appreciation potential with higher current income and lower volatility than the average stock fund

Investment Strategy The Huntington Income Equity Fund seeks to achieve high current income and moderate appreciation of capital primarily through investment in income-producing equity securities.

<R>

The Adviser focuses primarily on equity securities and under normal circumstances invests at least 80% of its assets in equity securities, such as common stock and preferred stock, which have a history of increasing or paying high dividends. As an additional income source, the Adviser also invests in investment grade corporate debt obligations, such as bonds, notes and debentures. The Fund may also invest up to 10% of its total assets in debt obligations rated below investment grade (securities rated below BBB by Standard & Poor’s or Baa by Moody’s).At least 65% of the Fund’s total assets will be invested in income-producing equity securities. The Adviser selects securities which it believes will maintain or increase the Fund’s current income while maintaining a price/earnings ratio below the market.

</R>

In evaluating the current yield of a security, the Adviser considers dividend growth to be most important, followed by capital appreciation. The Adviser actively monitors market activity which impacts dividend decisions. In general, the Fund will sell a security when dividends are no longer expected to increase.

For more information about the Fund’s investment strategies and a more complete description of the securities in which the Fund can invest, please see “Additional Investment Strategies” and “Investment Practices.”

What are the main risks of investing in this Fund? Loss of money is a risk of investing in the Fund. In addition, your investment in the Fund may be subject to the following principal risks:

Market Risk: The possibility that the Fund’s stock holdings will decline in price because of a broad stock market decline. Stock markets generally move in cycles, with periods of rising prices followed by periods of falling prices. The value of your investment will tend to increase or decrease in response to these movements.

Investment Style Risk: The possibility that the securities on which this Fund focuses—the stocks of undervalued, dividend-paying companies — will underperform other kinds of investments or market averages.

Interest Rate Risk: The possibility that the value of the Fund’s investments will decline due to an increase in interest rates or that the Fund’s yield will decrease due to a decrease in interest rates. Credit Risk: The possibility that a bond issuer cannot make timely interest and principal payments on its bonds. The lower a bond’s rating, the greater its credit risk.

Rotating Index Fund

Fund Summary

Investment Goal To seek to approximate the returns of the broad-based equity market index as determined by the Fund’s Investment Adviser to be the most favorable in a given market environment.

Investment Focus Common stocks and index-based securities

Principal Investment Strategy Attempts to emulate the returns of the broad-based equity index determined by the Adviser to be the most favorable given current economic conditions by investing in the stocks comprising that index or in index-based securities.

Share Price Volatility Moderate to High

Investor Profile Long-term investors seeking capital appreciation

Investment Strategy The Huntington Rotating Index Fund seeks to approximate the returns of various broad-based equity market indices as determined by the Fund’s Investment Adviser to be the most favorable in a given market environment.

The Fund will pursue its objective, under normal market conditions, by investing (either directly or through the ownership of domestic index-based securities, as described below) substantially all of its assets in the stocks that comprise the broad-based equity index selected by the Adviser. In determining which broad-based equity index the Fund will seek to emulate, the Adviser will use top-down analysis to evaluate broad economic trends, anticipate shifts in the business cycle, and determine which sectors or industries may benefit the most over the next 12 months. The Fund currently seeks to approximate the returns of the Russell 2000 Index (“Russell 2000”).The Adviser will continuously monitor the market environment and may shift the index that the Fund emulates when the Adviser determines that another broad-based equity index is more favorable given the current market environment.

Until the total assets of the Fund reach $70 million, the Fund will not invest directly in the individual securities which comprise the index selected by the Adviser, but will instead invest indirectly in the index through its acquisition of index-based securities such as iShares Russell 2000 Index Fund, Standard & Poor’s Depository Receipts (“SPDRs”) and NASDAQ-100 Index Tracking Stock (“NASDAQ 100s”).

Although the Fund will attempt to remain fully invested in the composite stocks of the selected broad based equity index, for liquidity purposes, the Fund may invest in money market instruments.

Index-based securities are exchange-traded securities that represent ownership in a long-term investment trust that holds a portfolio of common stocks designed to track the price performance and dividend yield of an index, such as the Russell 2000, S&P 500 Index, or the NASDAQ-100 Index.

A broad-based equity index is one that provides investors with a performance indicator of the overall applicable stock market or a substantial portion of the market. Examples include, but are not limited to, the S&P 500 Index, Dow Jones Industrial Average, NASDAQ-100 Index or Russell 2000 Index. Additionally, indexes emphasizing large, medium or small capitalization companies as well as growth or value stocks would also be considered broad-based. An index is not considered to be broad-based if it is composed of securities of firms in a particular industry or group of related industries.

What are the main risks of investing in this Fund? Loss of money is a risk of investing in the Fund. In addition, your investment in the Fund may be subject to the following principal risks:

Market Risk: The possibility that the Fund’s stock holdings will decline in price because of a broad stock market decline. Stock markets generally move in cycles, with periods of rising prices followed by periods of falling prices. The value of your investment will tend to increase or decrease in response to these movements.

Investment Style Risk: The possibility that the securities on which this Fund focuses — the stocks of the broad-based equity index selected by the Adviser — will underperform other kinds of investments or market averages.

Small Company Risk: Investing in smaller, lesser-known companies involves greater risk than investing in those that are more established. A small company’s financial well-being may, for example, depend heavily on just a few products or services. In addition, investors may have limited flexibility to buy or sell small company stocks, as compared to those of larger firms.

The Fund may trade securities actively, which could increase its transaction costs (thereby lowering its performance) and increase the amount of taxes that you pay.

Dividend Capture Fund

Fund Summary

Investment Goal To seek total return on investment, with dividend income as an important component of that return

Investment Focus US common stocks and covered option positions relative to those stocks

Principal Investment Strategy Attempts to identify stocks that pay dividends and hedge against adverse market swings

Share Price Volatility Moderate

Investor Profile Investors seeking capital appreciation with the potential for higher current income than the average stock fund

Investment Strategy The Huntington Dividend Capture Fund seeks total return on investment, with dividend income as an important component of that return.

To pursue its primary goal, the Fund invests at least 65% of its assets in dividend-paying stocks that the Adviser believes are undervalued or out-of-favor. The Adviser intends to invest in common stock, preferred stock, and REIT’s (real estate investment trusts) which pay high dividends. The Fund may invest in convertible bonds and other types of hybrid securities (securities that contain aspects of both stocks and bonds).As an additional income source, the Adviser will frequently purchase stocks in a short period prior to the ex-dividend date (the interval between the announcement and the payments of the next dividend).

The companies in which the Fund invests are generally mature, middle and large-capitalization US corporations. In-depth fundamental research (both quantitative and qualitative) confirms the value characteristics of individual stocks and evaluates the company’s future prospects. Quantitative analysis is used to identify stocks that they believe are undervalued relative to the market and to the security’s historic valuations. Factors considered will include fundamental factors such as earnings growth, cash flow, and credit quality to identify the best companies. The Adviser then uses a qualitative stock selection model based on earnings expectations and supplemental valuation measures to narrow the list of stocks to the most attractive. The Fund may, under varying market conditions, employ various strategies which involve put and/or call option contracts.

The Adviser typically begins to pare down a position when the stock has declared an ex-dividend date or is at a valuation level that, in the Adviser’s opinion, leaves little for investor gain. The Adviser may eliminate a stock from the Fund’s portfolio if its long-term fundamentals become unfavorable.

The Fund actively trades its portfolio securities in an attempt to achieve its investment objective. Active trading will cause the Fund to have an increased portfolio turnover rate, which is likely to generate shorter-term gains (losses) for its shareholders, which are taxed at a higher rate than longer-term gains (losses).Actively trading portfolio securities increases the Fund’s trading costs and may have an adverse impact on the Fund’s performance.

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. In these and in other cases, the Fund may not achieve its investment objective.

Investment Style Risk: The possibility that the securities on which this Fund focuses — the stocks of undervalued, dividend-paying companies — will underperform other kinds of investments or market averages.

Basis Risk: Financial instruments such as options or futures contacts derive their value from an underlying asset such as shares in common stock and price volatility. This relationship between derivative instruments and underlying securities is known as the basis. Basis risk arises when derivative instruments and underlying securities do not fluctuate to the same degree as expected based on historical trends or models.

International Equity Fund

Fund Summary

Investment Goal To seek total return on its assets

Investment Focus Equity securities of companies based outside the US

Principal Investment Strategy Attempts to identify equity securities of companies based outside the US with the best potential for superior long-term investment returns

Share Price Volatility High

Investor Profile Investors who want total return, are willing to accept the increased risks of international investing for the possibility of higher returns, and want exposure to a diversified portfolio of international stocks

Investment Strategy The Fund’s investment objective is to obtain a total return on its assets. The Fund’s total return will consist of two components: (1) changes in the market value of its portfolio securities (both realized and unrealized appreciation); and (2) income received from its portfolio securities. The Fund expects that changes in market value will comprise the largest component of its total return. While there is no assurance that the Fund will achieve its investment objective, it endeavors to do so by following the strategies and policies described in this prospectus. This investment objective may be changed by the Fund’s Trustees without shareholder approval.

The Fund pursues its investment objective by investing at least 80% of its assets in equity securities, 65% of which will be invested in companies based outside the U.S. The Adviser manages the Fund based on the view that international equity markets are inefficient at pricing securities and that careful security selection offers the best potential for superior long-term investment returns. The Adviser uses a “bottom-up” approach to stock selection and selection of industry and country are secondary considerations. The Adviser attempts to purchase securities with value characteristics consistent with an overall assessment of the economic environment in which the underlying company operates.

The Adviser ranks the relative valuation and recent price performance of a universe of companies. The Adviser then evaluates the most attractively valued portion of this universe using such factors as the company’s price-to-earnings ratio, enterprise value, organic growth rates versus growth through acquisition, product niche and management quality. The Adviser also reviews the company’s financial statements and forecasts of earnings. Based on this information, the Adviser evaluates the sustainability of the company’s current growth trends and potential catalysts for increased valuation, based on the company’s potential to add economic value to the enterprise.

The Adviser frequently identifies benchmarks for certain securities such as price-to-earnings ratios or stock prices. Once those benchmarks are achieved, the Adviser will often consider selling all or a portion of the Fund’s holdings to lock in profit. Holdings will also be sold if they fail to meet performance expectations or better investment opportunities are identified.

With respect to the Fund’s investments in developed markets, companies may be grouped together in broad categories called business sectors. The Adviser may emphasize certain business sectors in the portfolio that exhibit stronger growth potential or higher profit margins. The Fund will not invest more than 20% of its assets in companies located in emerging markets. In selecting emerging markets countries in which to invest, the Adviser reviews the country’s economic outlook, its interest and inflation rates, and the political and foreign exchange risk of investing in a particular country. The Adviser then analyzes companies located in particular emerging market countries.

The Fund may temporarily depart from its principal investment strategies by investing its assets in cash, cash items, and shorter-term, higher quality debt securities and similar obligations. It may do this to minimize potential losses and maintain liquidity to meet shareholder redemptions during adverse market conditions. This may cause the Fund to give up greater investment returns to maintain the safety of principal, that is, the original amount invested by shareholders.

For a more complete description of the securities in which the Fund can invest, please see “Investment Practices.”

What are the main risks of investing in this Fund? Loss of money is a risk of investing in the Fund. In addition, your investment in the Fund may be subject to the following principal risks:

Market Risk: The possibility that the Fund’s stock holdings may decline in price because of a broad stock market decline. Markets generally move in cycles, with periods of rising prices followed by periods of falling prices. The value of your investment will tend to increase or decrease in response to these movements.

Investment Style Risk: The possibility that the securities on which this Fund focuses — the stocks of foreign companies — may underperform other kinds of investments or the market as a whole.

Currency Risks: Exchange rates for currencies fluctuate daily. Foreign securities are normally denominated and traded in foreign currencies. As a result, the value of the Fund’s foreign investments and the value of its Shares may be affected favorably or unfavorably by changes in currency exchange rates relative to the US dollar. The combination of currency risk and market risks tends to make securities traded in foreign markets more volatile than securities traded exclusively in the U.S. Additionally, the Fund makes significant investments in securities denominated in the Euro, the new single currency of the European Monetary Union (EMU). Therefore, the exchange rate between the Euro and the US dollar will have a significant impact on the value of the Fund’s investments.

<R>

Foreign Investment Risk: Investing in foreign markets involves greater risk than investing in the United States. Foreign securities may be affected by such factors as fluctuations in currency exchange rates, incomplete or inaccurate financial information on companies, social upheavals and political actions ranging from tax code changes to governmental collapse. Emerging market securities may be even more susceptible to these risks.

</R>

Custodial Services and Related Investment Costs: Custodial services and other costs relating to investment in international securities markets are generally more expensive than in the US Such markets have settlement and clearance procedures that differ from those in the US In certain markets there have been times when settlements have been unable to keep pace with the volume of securities transactions, making it difficult to conduct such transactions. The inability of the Fund to make intended securities purchases due to settlement problems could cause the Fund to miss attractive investment opportunities. The inability to dispose of a portfolio security caused by settlement problems could result either in losses to the Fund due to a subsequent decline in value of the portfolio security or could result in possible liability to the Fund. In addition, security settlement and clearance procedures in some emerging countries may not fully protect the Fund against loss or theft of its assets.

Mid Corp America Fund

Fund Summary

Investment Goal To seek long-term capital appreciation by investing primarily in equity securities of companies that are either included in the Russell 3000 Index or have market capitalizations within the range of such included companies

Investment Focus Common stocks

Principal Investment Strategy Attempts to identify companies with outstanding growth characteristics

Share Price Volatility Moderate to High

Investor Profile Long-term investors seeking capital appreciation

Investment Strategy The Huntington Mid Corp America Fund seeks long-term capital appreciation by investing primarily in a diversified portfolio of securities consisting of common stocks and securities convertible into common stocks such as convertible bonds and convertible preferred stocks. To pursue this goal, the Fund invests primarily in common stocks of companies with market capitalizations at the time of purchase in the range of companies in the Russell 3000 Index. The Fund will mainly focus on the 2000 companies with market capitalization in the middle of the Russell 3000 Index and will normally not invest in the 500 companies with the smallest market capitalization or 500 companies with the largest market capitalization. The Russell 3000 Index represents the top 3,000 NASDAQ, NYSE, and AMEX US domiciled stocks as ranked by their market capitalization. As of June 30, 2001, the Russell 3000 Index statistics were as follows: the average market capitalization was approximately $4.6 billion and the median market capitalization was approximately $732 million. The Index had a total market capitalization range of approximately $487 billion to $147 million.

In managing the Fund’s portfolio, the Adviser emphasizes both growth and value in seeking small cap to mid cap companies with above-average growth potential or with temporarily depressed prices. As a result, the Fund will invest in a blend of both “growth” and “value” stocks. Factors the Adviser typically considers is selecting individual securities include fundamental analysis, valuation techniques, and technical analysis. Fundamental analysis will focus on qualitative aspects of the company’s product, management, and competitive strategy. Valuation techniques include quantitative screens to review historical earnings, revenue, and cash flow. Technical analysis will be deployed as it relates to the timing of trading the securities. This process will be utilized to identify the most attractive companies in each industry and to evaluate the growth potential of these companies. On an ongoing basis, the Adviser monitors the Fund’s existing positions to determine benefits of retaining a particular security.

The Adviser will apply a top down strategy, industries weighted relative to the benchmark and the market outlook. Portfolio optimization programs will be deployed to enhance risk return potential.

The Fund may employ option strategies which utilize puts and/or calls although these strategies are not the primary means by which the Adviser seeks to add value.

The Fund actively trades its portfolio securities in an attempt to achieve its investment objective. Active trading will cause the Fund to have an increased portfolio turnover rate, which is likely to generate shorter-term gains (losses) for its shareholders, which are taxed at a higher rate than longer-term gains (losses).Actively trading portfolio securities increases the Fund’s trading costs and may have an adverse impact on the Fund’s performance.

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. In these and in other cases, the Fund may not achieve its investment objective.

The Fund may also invest in certain other equity securities in addition to those described above.

For a more complete description of the securities in which the Fund can invest, please see “Investment Practices.”

What are the main risks of investing in this Fund? Loss of money is a risk of investing in the Fund. In addition, your investment in the Fund may be subject to the following principal risks:

Market Risk: The possibility that the Fund’s stock holdings may decline in price because of a broad stock market decline. Markets generally move in cycles, with periods of rising prices followed by periods of falling prices. The value of your investment will tend to increase or decrease in response to these movements.

Investment Style Risk: The possibility that the market segment on which this Fund focuses — value and growth stocks of primarily small to mid cap companies — will underperform other kinds of investments or market averages.

Small/Mid Cap Stock Risk: To the extent that the Fund invests in small cap and mid cap stocks, it takes on additional risks. Small cap and mid cap stocks tend to be less liquid and more volatile than large cap stocks. Smaller companies tend to depend heavily on new products and/or a few products or services and often have less experienced management.

New Economy Fund

Fund Summary

Investment Goal To seek capital appreciation by investing primarily in equity securities of companies engaged in developing products, processes, or services that provide technological or scientific advances and efficiencies

Investment Focus Common stocks of technology and scientific companies

Principal Investment Strategy Long-term capital appreciation

Share Price Volatility High

Investor Profile Long-term investors seeking capital appreciation

Investment Strategy The Huntington New Economy Fund seeks capital appreciation by investing primarily in a diversified portfolio of securities consisting of common stocks and securities convertible into common stocks such as convertible bonds and convertible preferred stocks.

Under normal market conditions, the Fund invests at least 65% of total assets in the equity securities of US and, to a lesser extent, foreign technology and scientific companies.

“New economy” companies are those that are substantially engaged in developing products, processes, or services that provide technological or scientific advances. Those companies may be in any of a variety of industries, such as computer hardware, software, electronic components and systems, telecommunications, Internet, media information services companies, biotechnology, robotics, and energy replacement. They also may include companies in more traditional industries, such as certain consumer products retailers, that have extensively used technological or scientific advances to develop new or to improve products or processes and make them more efficient.

The Fund generally takes a growth approach to selecting stocks, looking for companies that appear poised to grow because of new products, technology or management, as well as new companies that are in the developmental stage. Factors in identifying these companies may include the quality of management, financial strength, a strong position relative to competitors and a stock price that appears reasonable relative to its expected growth rate. The Fund may invest in companies of any size, including small, high growth companies. The Fund also may invest in companies whose shares are being, or recently have been, offered to the public for the first time.

The Fund reserves the right to invest up to 35% of total assets in other securities, such as, corporate bonds and government securities. The Fund actively trades its portfolio securities in an attempt to achieve its investment objective. Active trading will cause the Fund to have an increased portfolio turnover rate, which is likely to generate shorter-term gains (losses) for its shareholders, which are taxed at a higher rate than longer-term gains (losses).Actively trading portfolio securities increases the Fund’s trading costs and may have an adverse impact on the Fund’s performance.

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. In these and in other cases, the Fund may not achieve its investment objective.

For a more complete description of the securities in which the Fund can invest, please see “Investment Practices.”

What are the main risks of investing in this Fund? Loss of money is a risk of investing in the Fund. In addition, your investment in the Fund may be subject to the following principal risks:

Market Risk: The possibility that the Fund’s stock holdings will decline in price because of a broad stock market decline. Stock markets generally move in cycles, with periods of rising prices followed by periods of falling prices. The value of your investment will tend to increase or decrease in response to these movements.

Investment Style Risk: The possibility that the securities on which this Fund focuses — the stocks of companies focusing on technological and scientific advancements — will underperform other kinds of investments or market averages. The securities in which the Fund invests may be more vulnerable than most stocks to the obsolescence of existing technology, expired patents, short product cycles, price competition, market saturation and new market entrants and may fluctuate in price more widely and rapidly than the market as a whole. These securities may underperform other types of stocks or be difficult to sell when the economy is not robust, during market downturns, or when technology or scientific stocks are out of favor.

Growth Stock Risk: The price of most growth stocks are based on future expectations. As a result, those stocks tend to be more sensitive than value stocks to negative earnings surprises and changes in internal growth rates. Growth stocks in particular may underperform during periods when the market favors value stocks.

Mortgage Securities Fund

Fund Summary

Investment Goal To seek to achieve current income

Investment Focus Mortgage-related securities, including mortgage REITs

Principal Investment Strategy Invests in mortgage-related securities, including mortgage REITs

Share Price Volatility Moderate

Investor Profile Investors willing to accept the risk of a moderate amount of fluctuation in the value of their investment for the benefit of a higher total return potential

Investment Strategy The Huntington Mortgage Securities Fund seeks to achieve current income.

<R>

The Adviser invests, under normal circumstances, at least 80% of the Fund’s assets in mortgage-related securities, including mortgage Real Estate Investment Trusts (“REITs”).The Adviser especially focuses on securities which it expects to be less susceptible to prepayment of principal. The Adviser endeavors to maintain a dollar-weighted average portfolio life for the Fund of between three and ten years. The Fund may also invest up to 20% of its assets in equity REITs. The Fund will indirectly bear its proportionate share of expenses incurred by REITs in which the Fund invests in addition to the expenses incurred directly by the Fund.

</R>

In making its investment decisions, the Adviser considers various economic factors, Federal Reserve policy, interest rate trends and spreads between different types of fixed income securities. In managing the portfolio, the Adviser monitors the Fund’s cash flow, maturities and interest payments and tracks a variety of other portfolio security statistics.

Mortgage-related securities are securities, including derivative mortgage securities such as collateralized mortgage obligations (CMOs), whose income is generated by payments of principal and interest on pools of mortgage loans and mortgage REITs.

REITs are pooled investment vehicles which invest primarily in income producing real estate or real estate related loans or interest. REITs are generally classified as equity REITs, mortgage REITs or a combination of equity and mortgage REITs. Equity REITs invest the majority of their assets directly in real property and derive income primarily from the collection of rents. Equity REITs can also realize capital gains by selling property that has appreciated in value. Mortgage REITs invest the majority of their assets in real estate mortgages and derive income from the collection of interest payments. Similar to investment companies, REITs are not taxed on income distributed to shareholders provided they comply with several requirements of the Internal Revenue Code (the “Code”).

For more information about the Fund’s investment strategies and a more complete description of the securities in which the Fund can invest, please see “Additional Investment Strategies” and “Investment Practices.”

What are the main risks of investing in this Fund? Loss of money is a risk of investing in the Fund. In addition, your investment in the Fund may be subject to the following principal risks:

Interest Rate Risk: The possibility that the value of the Fund’s investments will decline due to an increase in interest rates or that the Fund’s yield will decrease due to a decrease in interest rates.

Credit Risk: The possibility that a bond issuer cannot make timely interest and principal payments on its bonds. The lower a bond’s rating, the greater its credit risk.

<R>

Prepayment & Call Risk: If a significant number of the mortgages underlying a mortgage-backed bond are refinanced, the bond may be “prepaid.” Call risk is the possibility that, during periods of declining interest rates, a bond issuer will “call”—or repay—higher-yielding bonds before their stated maturity date. In both cases, investors receive their principal back and are typically forced to reinvest it in bonds that pay lower interest rates, thus reducing income. Rapid changes in prepayment and call rates can cause bond prices and yields to be volatile.

</R>

Extension Risk: As interest rates rise, mortgage-related securities tend to mature later, thus effectively converting shorter-term securities into more volatile long-term securities. This will also affect the Adviser’s ability to manage the average life of the Fund. Real Estate/REIT Risk: The Fund’s investments in REITs are subject to the same risks as direct investments in real estate. Real estate values rise and fall in response to many factors, including local, regional and national economic conditions, the demand for rental property, and interest rates. In addition, REITs may have limited financial resources, may trade less frequently and in limited volume and may be more volatile than other securities.

Prepayment/Call Risk and Extension Risk are more pronounced with respect to derivative mortgage securities and can result in reduced liquidity. The principal derivative mortgage securities in which the Fund invests are collateralized mortgage obligations (CMOs).

The Fund may trade securities actively, which could increase its transaction costs (thereby lowering its performance) and increase the amount of taxes that you pay.

Ohio Tax-Free Fund

Fund Summary

Investment Goal To seek to provide current income exempt from federal income tax and Ohio personal income taxes.

Investment Focus Ohio municipal securities

Principal Investment Strategy Invests primarily in investment-grade Ohio municipal securities

Share Price Volatility Low to Moderate

Investor Profile Ohio residents seeking income exempt from federal and state income taxes

<R>

Investment Strategy The Huntington Ohio Tax-Free Fund seeks to provide current income exempt from federal income tax and Ohio state income taxes.

The Adviser invests substantially all of the assets of the Ohio Tax-free Fund in Ohio tax-exempt securities. As a matter of fundamental policy, under normal circumstances, the Fund will invest its assets so that at least 80% of the income it distributes will be exempt from federal income tax and Ohio state income tax. The securities selected by the Adviser are: (i) rated in one of the top four categories by a Nationally Recognized Statistical Rating Organization; or (ii) not rated, but deemed by the Adviser to be of comparable quality. In addition, these securities will have remaining maturities of no more than 15 years and the Fund’s anticipated dollar-weighted average maturity will be between four and ten years. The Adviser also establishes a desired yield level for new issues relative to U.S. Treasury securities.

</R>

In managing the portfolio, the Adviser attempts to diversify the Fund’s holdings within Ohio as much as possible. In selecting securities, the Adviser monitors economic activity and interest rate trends, reviews financial information relating to each issuer and looks for attractively priced issues.

For temporary defensive or liquidity purposes, the Fund may invest in securities the interest on which is subject to federal income tax or Ohio personal income taxes.

Ohio tax-exempt securities are debt obligations which (i) are issued by or on behalf of the state of Ohio or its respective authorities, agencies, instrumentalities and political subdivisions, and (ii) produce interest which, in the opinion of bond counsel at the time of issuance, is exempt from federal income tax and Ohio personal income taxes.

For more information about the Fund’s investment strategies and a more complete description of the securities in which the Fund can invest, please see “Additional Investment Strategies” and “Investment Practices.”

What are the main risks of investing in this Fund? Loss of money is a risk of investing in the Fund. In addition, your investment in the Fund may be subject to the following principal risks:

State Specific Risk: By concentrating its investments in Ohio, the Fund may be more vulnerable to unfavorable developments in that state than funds that are more geographically diversified. The economy of Ohio is largely concentrated in agriculture, motor vehicles and equipment, steel, rubber products and household appliances, and therefore tends to be more cyclical than some other states and the nation as a whole.

Diversification Risk: As a non-diversified fund, the Fund may invest a greater percentage of its assets in the securities of a single issuer than do other mutual funds, therefore Fund performance can be significantly affected by the performance of one or a small number of issuers.

<R>

Interest Rate Risk: The possibility that the value of the Fund’s investments will decline due to an increase in interest rates or that the Fund’s yield will decrease due to a decrease in interest rates.

</R>

Credit Risk: The possibility that a bond issuer cannot make timely interest and principal payments on its bonds. The lower a bond’s rating, the greater its credit risk.

<R>

Prepayment & Call Risk: If a significant number of the mortgages underlying a mortgage-backed bond are refinanced, the bond may be “prepaid.” Call risk is the possibility that, during periods of declining interest rates, a bond issuer will “call” — or repay —higher-yielding bonds before their stated maturity date. In both cases, investors receive their principal back and are typically forced to reinvest it in bonds that pay lower interest rates, thus reducing income. Rapid changes in prepayment and call rates can cause bond prices and yields to be volatile.

</R>

The Fund may trade securities actively, which could increase its transaction costs (thereby lowering its performance) and increase the amount of taxes that you pay.

What are the main risks of investing in this Fund? Loss of money is a risk of investing in the Fund. In addition, your investment in the Fund may be subject to the following principal risks:

State Specific Risk: By concentrating its investments in Michigan, the Fund may be more vulnerable to unfavorable developments in that state than funds that are more geographically diversified. The economy of Michigan is principally dependent upon three sectors: manufacturing (particularly durable goods, automotive products and office equipment), tourism and agriculture. It, therefore, tends to be more cyclical than some other states and the nation as a whole.

Diversification Risk: As a non-diversified fund, the Fund may invest a greater percentage of its assets in the securities of a single issuer than do other mutual funds, therefore Fund performance can be significantly affected by the performance of one or a small number of issuers.

Interest Rate Risk: The possibility that the value of the Fund’s investments will decline due to an increase in interest rates or that the Fund’s yield will decrease due to a decrease in interest rates.

Credit Risk: The possibility that a bond issuer cannot make timely interest and principal payments on its bonds. The lower a bond’s rating, the greater its credit risk.

<R>

Prepayment & Call Risk: If a significant number of the mortgages underlying a mortgage-backed bond are refinanced, the bond may be “prepaid.” Call risk is the possibility that, during periods of declining interest rates, a bond issuer will “call” — or repay —higher-yielding bonds before their stated maturity date. In both cases, investors receive their principal back and are typically forced to reinvest it in bonds that pay lower interest rates, thus reducing income. Rapid changes in prepayment and call rates can cause bond prices and yields to be volatile.

</R>

The Fund may trade securities actively, which could increase its transaction costs (thereby lowering its performance) and increase the amount of taxes that you pay.

<R>

Fixed Income Securities Fund

Fund Summary

Investment Goal To seek to achieve high current income through investment in fixed income securities where the average maturity of the Fund will not exceed 10 years

<R>

Investment Focus US government obligations, corporate debt securities, mortgage backed securities

</R>

Principal Investment Strategy Focuses on investment-grade fixed income securities that produce a high level of income

Share Price Volatility Moderate

Investor Profile Investors willing to accept the risk of a moderate amount of fluctuation in the value of their investment for the benefit of a higher total return potential

Investment Strategy The Huntington Fixed Income Securities Fund seeks to achieve high current income through investment in fixed income securities where the average maturity of the Fund will not exceed 10 years.

<R>

The Adviser, under normal circumstances, invests at least 80% of the Fund’s assets in fixed income securities, principally by investing in a combination of corporate debt, such as bonds, notes and debentures, and obligations issued or guaranteed by the US government, its agencies or instrumentalities. The selection of corporate debt obligations is limited to those: (i) rated in one of the top four categories by a Nationally Recognized Statistical Rating Organization or (ii) not rated, but deemed by the Adviser to be of comparable quality. Within these parameters, the Adviser focuses on securities which offer the highest level of income. For all types of investments, the Adviser considers various economic factors, Federal Reserve policy, interest rate trends, spreads between different types of fixed income securities and the credit quality of existing holdings.

</R>

In managing the portfolio, the Adviser monitors the Fund’s cash flow, maturities and interest payments and tracks a variety of other portfolio security statistics. The Adviser also follows closely new issue and secondary activity in the corporate debt market.

What are the main risks of investing in this Fund? Loss of money is a risk of investing in the Fund. In addition, your investment in the Fund may be subject to the following principal risks:

Intermediate Government Income Fund

Fund Summary

Investment Goal To seek to provide investors with a high level of current income

Investment Focus US government obligations, mortgage backed securities

<R>

Principal Investment Strategy Focuses on US government obligations and mortgage-related securities with maturities between three and ten years that produce a high level of income

</R>

Share Price Volatility Low to Moderate

Investor Profile Investors willing to accept the risk of a low to moderate amount of fluctuation in the value of their investment for the benefit of a higher total return

<R>

Investment Strategy The Huntington Intermediate Government Income Fund seeks to provide investors with a high level of current income.

The Adviser invests primarily in obligations issued or guaranteed by the US government, its agencies or instrumentalities including mortgage-related securities. The Adviser, under normal circumstances, invests at least 80% of the Fund’s assets in US government securities. The Fund will maintain a dollar-weighted average maturity of not less than three nor more than ten years. Within this range, the Adviser focuses on securities which offer the highest level of income. In general, in order to reduce volatility during periods of interest rate fluctuation, the Adviser invests in securities with a wide range of intermediate maturities. For all types of investments, the Adviser considers various economic factors, Federal Reserve policy, interest rate trends and spreads between different types of fixed income securities.

</R>

In managing the portfolio, the Adviser monitors the Fund’s cash flow, maturities and interest payments and tracks a variety of other portfolio security statistics.

Mortgage-related securities are securities, including derivative mortgage securities such as collateralized mortgage obligations (CMOs), whose income is generated by payments of principal and interest on pools of mortgage loans.

For more information about the Fund’s investment strategies and a more complete description of the securities in which the Fund can invest, please see “Additional Investment Strategies” and “Investment Practices.”

What are the main risks of investing in this Fund? Loss of money is a risk of investing in the Fund. In addition, your investment in the Fund may be subject to the following principal risks:

Interest Rate Risk: The possibility that the value of the Fund’s investments will decline due to an increase in interest rates or that the Fund’s yield will decrease due to a decrease in interest rates.

<R>

Prepayment & Call Risk: If a significant number of the mortgages underlying a mortgage-backed bond are refinanced, the bond may be “prepaid.” Call risk is the possibility that, during periods of declining interest rates, a bond issuer will “call” — or repay —higher-yielding bonds before their stated maturity date. In both cases, investors receive their principal back and are typically forced to reinvest it in bonds that pay lower interest rates, thus reducing income. Rapid changes in prepayment and call rates can cause bond prices and yields to be volatile.

</R>

Reinvestment Risk: As prepayment increases as a result of lower interest rates, the proceeds from maturing mortgage-related securities will be reinvested at lower interest rates, thus reducing income.

Extension Risk: As interest rates rise, mortgage-related securities tend to mature later, thus effectively converting shorter-term securities into more volatile long-term securities. This will also affect the Adviser’s ability to manage the average life of the Fund.

The above risks are more pronounced with respect to derivative mortgage securities and can result in reduced liquidity. The principal derivative mortgage securities in which the Intermediate Government Income Fund invests are collateralized mortgage obligations (CMOs).

The Fund may trade securities actively, which could increase its transaction costs (thereby lowering its performance) and increase the amount of taxes that you pay.

Shareholder Information

Before you invest, we encourage you to carefully read the Fund profiles included in this prospectus and consider which Funds are appropriate for your particular financial situation, risk tolerance and goals. As always, your financial representative can provide you with valuable assistance in making this decision. He or she can also help you choose which of the Fund share classes we offer is right for you.

Choosing a Share Class

The Huntington Funds offers different classes of Fund Shares, each of which has different expenses and other characteristics. Two classes of Fund Shares—Investment A and Investment B—are offered in this prospectus. To choose the one that is best suited to your needs and goals, consider the amount of money you want to invest, how long you expect to invest it and whether you plan to make additional investments. The following are some of the main differences between Investment A and Investment B Shares:

Investment A

  • Front-end sales charges, as described below under “Sales Charges.”
  • Distribution (12b-1) fees of 0.25% of a Fund’s average daily net assets.
  • A non-Rule 12b-1 shareholder servicing fee of 0.25% of a Fund’s average daily net assets.

Investment B

  • No front-end sales charge.
  • Distribution (12b-1) fees of 1.00% of a Fund’s average daily net assets.
  • A contingent deferred sales charge, as described below.
  • Automatic conversion to Investment A Shares after eight years, thus reducing future annual expenses.

For the actual past expenses of each share class, see the individual Fund profiles earlier in this prospectus.

Because 12b-1 fees are paid on an ongoing basis, Investment B shareholders could end up paying more expenses over the long term than if they had paid a sales charge on their initial investment.

The Funds also offer Trust Shares and the Money Market Fund offers Interfund Shares, which have their own expense structures. Trust Shares are available only to fiduciary, advisory, agency and other similar clients of The Huntington National Bank and its affiliates or correspondent banks. Interfund Shares are available only for purchase by the Huntington Equity Funds and the Huntington Income Funds.

For purchases of $1 million or greater, the sales charge for Investment A Shares is waived. As a result, if you are making an initial investment of $1 million or more, the lower operating expenses of Investment A Shares may make them a better choice for you than Investment B Shares.

Distribution of the Funds

Edgewood Services, Inc., whose address is 5800 Corporate Drive, Pittsburgh, PA 15237, serves as the Distributor of the Funds offered by this Prospectus.

In connection with the sale of Investment A Shares, the Distributor collects the applicable sales charge and, if the sale is made through a registered broker-dealer, generally pays the selling broker-dealer up to 90% of that amount. The Distributor retains any portion not paid to a broker-dealer. The Distributor also collects any applicable contingent deferred sales charges in connection with the redemption of Investment B Shares and retains the amounts collected. The Distributor uses these funds to pay banks, including The Huntington Bank and its affiliates, for providing sales and/or administrative services on behalf of its customers who purchase Investment A Shares or Investment B Shares.

The Distributor may, from time to time in its sole discretion, institute one or more promotional incentive programs for dealers, which will be paid for by the Distributor from any sales charge it receives or from any other source available to it. Under any such program, the Distributor may provide cash or non-cash compensation as recognition for past sales or encouragement for future sales that may include the following: merchandise, travel expenses, prizes, meals, and lodgings, and gifts that do not exceed $100 per year, per individual.

Distribution Plan (12b-1 Fees)

Edgewood Services Inc., (Distributor), serves as the Funds’ distributor and markets the Shares described in this prospectus to institutions or to individuals, directly or through investment professionals. When the Distributor receives marketing fees and sales charges, it may pay some or all of them to investment professionals. The Distributor and its affiliates may pay out of their assets other amounts (including items of material value) to investment professionals for marketing and servicing Shares. The Distributor is a subsidiary of Federated Investors, Inc. and is not affiliated with Huntington Asset Advisors, Inc. Consistent with Rule 12b-1 under the Investment Company Act of 1940, the Trust has adopted a Distribution Plan which permits the Trust to pay brokers, dealers and other financial institutions distribution and/or administrative services fees (12b-1 fees) in connection with the sale and distribution of Investment A Shares and Investment B Shares and the provision of shareholder services to such classes of shareholders. Because these fees are paid out of a Fund’s assets on an ongoing basis, over time they will increase the cost of your investment and may cost you more than other types of sales charges.

For each of the Funds offered by this Prospectus, the maximum 12b-1 fee is 0.25% of the applicable Funds Investment A Shares average daily net assets and 1.00% of the applicable Fund’s Investment B Shares average daily net assets. For Investment A Shares, fees are accrued daily, payable quarterly and calculated on an annual basis. For Investment B Shares, fees are accrued daily, payable monthly and calculated on an annual basis.

Year of Redemption    
(based on purchase date) All Funds  


 
Year 1 5.00 %
Year 2 4.00 %
Year 3 3.00 %
Year 4 3.00 %
Year 5 2.00 %
Year 6 1.00 %
Year 7 or later 0.00 %

For each redemption, we will first redeem shares which are not subject to CDSCs, if any, and then shares which you have held for the longest period of time. The applicable CDSC will then be charged on the lesser of current market value and the original cost of the Investment B Shares being redeemed.

No CDSC will apply to redemptions of shares:

<R>

  • Acquired through dividend or capital gains reinvestments
  • Redeemed in order to meet Internal Revenue Code minimum required distributions from Individual Retirement Accounts (IRAs) redeemed following the death of the shareholder in whose name such shares are held

<R>

You may purchase Investment A Shares or Investment B Shares of the Money Market Funds offered by this prospectus on any business day when the Federal Reserve Bank, the New York Stock Exchange and the principal bond markets (as recommended by the Bond Market Association) are open, and as discussed below. You may purchase Investment A Shares or Investment B Shares of all other Funds offered by this prospectus on any business day when both the Federal Reserve Bank and the New York Stock Exchange are open.

What Shares Cost

Money Market Funds

The offering price of an Investment A Share is its net asset value (determined after the order is considered received), plus any applicable sales charge. The offering price of an Investment B Share is simply its net asset value (determined after the order is considered received).The Trust calculates the net asset value per share for each Money Market Fund offered in this prospectus twice a day, at 10:30 a.m. Eastern time for the Ohio Municipal Money Market Fund and the Florida Tax-Free Money Fund and at 1:00 p.m. Eastern Time for the Money Market Fund and the U.S. Treasury Money Market Fund and as of the close of regular trading on the New York Stock Exchange (normally, 4:00 p.m. Eastern Time) for each Money Market Fund, on each day that the Exchange is open.

<R>

In addition, the Money Market Funds reserve the right to allow the purchase, redemption, and exchange of shares on any other day on which regular trading in money market instruments is taking place. On any day that the bond markets close early, such as days in advance of holidays or in the event of any emergency, the Money Market Funds reserve the right to advance the time net asset value is determined and by which purchase, redemption, and exchange orders must be received on that day, to the time of such closing. Please call the Huntington Funds at (800) 253-0412, if you have any questions about purchasing shares.

</R>

The Trust attempts to stabilize the net asset value per share for each of the Money Market Funds at $1.00 per share by valuing its portfolio securities using the amortized cost method. These valuation methods are more fully described in the Trust’s Statement of Additional Information.

Your order for purchase is priced at the next net asset value calculated after your order is received. With regard to investments in the Money Market Fund or the U.S. Treasury Money Market Fund, you will begin earning dividends on the day your order is received if the Trust receives payment in federal funds before 1:00 p.m. (Eastern Time).The applicable cut-off time for the Ohio Municipal Money Market Fund and the Florida Tax-free Money Fund is 10:30 a.m. (Eastern Time). Investments in the money market funds made by check,ACH or SIP are considered received when the payment is converted to federal funds (normally the next business day).

All Other Funds

The offering price of an Investment A Share is its net asset value (determined after the order is considered received), plus any applicable sales charge. The offering price of an Investment B Share is simply its net asset value (determined after the order is considered received).The Trust calculates the net asset value per share for each Fund (other than the Money Market Funds) offered in this prospectus as of the close of regular trading on the New York Stock Exchange (normally, 4:00 p.m. Eastern Time) on each day that the Exchange is open.

The Trust calculates net asset value for each of the Funds (other than the Money Market Funds) offered by this prospectus by valuing securities held based on market value. These valuation methods are more fully described in the Trust’s Statement of Additional Information.

Additional Information

Orders placed through an intermediary, such as your Huntington Personal Banker or The Huntington Investment Company, must be received and transmitted to the Trust before the applicable cutoff time in order for shares to be purchased that day.

If the Trust receives insufficient payment for a purchase, it will cancel the purchase and may charge you a fee. In addition, you will be liable for any losses incurred by the Trust in connection with the transaction.

Investment B Shares Conversion Feature

Once you hold Investment B Shares for eight years, they will automatically convert tax-free into Investment A Shares of the same Fund. After the conversion, you will have the same dollar value investment, although you may have more or less shares due to differences in the net asset values of Investment A Shares and Investment B Shares.

Investment A Shares carry lower distribution (12b-1) fees than Investment B Shares. Although Investment A Shares also carry a front-end sales charge, you will not incur any sales charges upon conversion.

</R>

Tax Consequences

There are many important tax consequences associated with investment in the Funds offered by this Prospectus. The following is a brief summary of certain income tax consequences relating to an investment in the Funds, and shareholders are urged to consult their own tax advisors regarding the taxation of their investments under federal, state and local laws.

Federal Income Taxes

Taxation of Shareholder Transactions

An exchange of a Fund’s shares for shares of another Fund will be treated as a sale of the Fund’s shares and, as with all sales, exchanges or redemptions of Fund shares, any gain on the transaction will be subject to federal income tax.

Taxation of Distributions

<R>

Each of the Funds offered by this prospectus intends to distribute substantially all of its net investment income (including net capital gains and tax-exempt interest income, if any) to its shareholders at least annually. Unless otherwise exempt or as discussed below, shareholders are required to pay federal income tax on any dividends and other distributions, including capital gains distributions received.This applies whether dividends and other distributions are received in cash or as additional shares. Distributions representing long-term capital gains, if any, will be taxable to shareholders as long-term capital gains no matter how long a shareholder has held the shares. Distributions are taxable to shareholders even if they are paid from income or gains earned by a Fund before a shareholder’s investment (and thus were included in the price paid).

</R>

Exempt-Interest Dividends

If, at the end of each quarter of its taxable year, at least 50% of the value of a Fund’s assets consists of obligations the interest on which is excludable from gross income, the Fund may pay “exempt-interest dividends” to its shareholders. Generally, exempt-interest dividends will be excluded from gross income for federal income tax purposes. However, exempt-interest dividends attributable to investments in certain “private activity” bonds will be treated as tax preference items in computing the alternative minimum tax. Also, a portion of all other exempt-interest dividends earned by a corporation may be subject to the alternative minimum tax. In certain limited instances, the portion of Social Security or Railroad Retirement benefits that may be subject to federal income taxation may be affected by the amount of tax-exempt interest income, including exempt-interest dividends, received by a shareholder.

Avoid Withholding Tax

Each Fund is required to withhold a portion of taxable dividends, capital gains distributions and proceeds of sales, exchanges, or redemptions paid to any shareholder who has not provided the Fund with his or her certified Taxpayer Identification Number (your Social Security Number for individual investors) in compliance with IRS rules. To avoid this withholding, make sure you provide your correct Tax Identification Number.

State Income Taxes

In addition to the exemption from federal income taxes, the income dividends distributed by the Ohio Municipal Money Market Fund and the Ohio Tax-free Fund are generally intended to be exempt from Ohio personal income taxes. Similarly, the income dividends distributed by the Michigan Tax-free Fund are generally intended to be exempt from Michigan city and state personal income taxes and the Michigan single business tax. For any portion of these Funds not invested in tax-exempt securities, distributions of income dividends may be subject to state taxation.

With respect to the Florida Tax-free Money Fund, the state of Florida does not currently impose an income tax on individuals, but does impose such a tax on corporations. Consequently, the income dividends distributed by the Florida Tax-free Money Fund will not be subject to Florida taxation for individuals, but may be taxable to corporate shareholders (including limited liability company shareholders that are taxed as corporations for federal income tax purposes).

The Florida Tax-free Money Fund is also intended to exempt its shareholders from Florida’s intangible personal property tax. If on the last business day of any year, the Florida Tax-free Money Fund consists solely of notes, bonds and other obligations issued by the State of Florida or its municipalities, counties and other taxing districts, or by the U.S. government, its agencies and certain U.S. territories and possessions (such as Guam, Puerto Rico and the Virgin Islands) the Fund’s shares will be exempt from the Florida intangible tax payable in the following year.

In order to take advantage of the exemption from the intangible tax in any year, the Florida Tax-free Money Fund may need to sell non-exempt assets held in its portfolio during the year and reinvest the proceeds in exempt assets on or before the last business day of the calendar year. Transactions costs involved in restructuring a fund in this manner would likely reduce investment return and might exceed any increased investment return the Fund achieved by investing in nonexempt assets during the year.

Additional Investment Policies

</R>

Rotating Index Fund. For the period that the Fund is invested in a particular broad-based equity index, the Fund attempts to achieve a correlation of at least 95% between the total return of its nets assets before expenses and the total return of the index selected by the Adviser. Perfect correlation would be 100%.Tracking accuracy will be monitored by the Adviser and appropriate adjustments will be made to the portfolio if the targeted correlation is not achieved.

Investors often look to indexes as a standard of performance. Indexes are model portfolios, groups of stocks or bonds selected to represent not actual securities, but an entire market. One way an index fund can seek to match an index’s performance, before fees and expenses, is through buying all the index’s securities in the same proportion as they are reflected in the index.

As discussed in the Fund Summary, until total assets of the Fund reach $70 million, the Fund will not invest directly in the individual securities which comprise the selected broad-based equity index, but instead will invest indirectly in the index through its acquisition of index-based securities. Investing through the Fund in index-based securities involves certain additional expenses and certain tax results which would not be present in a direct investment in individual securities.

By investing in the index-based securities indirectly through the Fund (for the period in which the Fund does not have sufficient assets to invest directly in index stocks), an investor will bear not only a proportionate share of the expenses of the Fund, but also, indirectly, similar expenses of the issuer of the index-based security. In addition, an investor will bear his proportionate share of expenses, if any, related to the distribution of the Fund’s shares, and he/she may also indirectly bear transaction fees paid by the Fund incurred in the purchase of index-based securities. Finally, an investor should recognize that, as a result of the Fund’s policies of investing in index-based securities, he/she may receive taxable capital gains distributions to a greater extent than would be the case if he/she invested directly in the securities comprising the index.

Investment Practices

The Funds invest in a variety of securities and employ a number of investment techniques. Each security and technique involves certain risks. The following table describes the securities and techniques the Funds use, as well as the main risks they pose. Equity securities are subject mainly to market risk. Fixed-income securities are subject primarily to market, credit and prepayment risk. Following the table is a more complete discussion of risk. You may also consult the Statement of Additional Information for more details about these and other securities in which the Funds may invest.

Glossary of Investment Risks

This section discusses the risks associated with the securities and investment techniques listed above, as well as the risks mentioned under the heading “What are the main risks of investing in this Fund?” in each Fund profile. Because of these risks, the value of the securities held by the Funds may fluctuate, as will the value of your investment in the Funds. Certain types of investments and Funds are more susceptible to these risks than others.

Credit Risk. The risk that the issuer of a security, or the counterparty to a contract, will default or otherwise become unable to honor a financial obligation. Generally speaking, the lower a security’s credit rating, the higher its credit risk. If a security’s credit rating is downgraded, its price tends to decline sharply, especially as it becomes more probable that the issuer will default.

Foreign Investment Risk. Compared with investing in the United States, investing in foreign markets involves a greater degree and variety of risk. Investors in foreign markets may face delayed settlements, currency controls and adverse economic developments as well as higher overall transaction costs. In addition, fluctuations in the US dollar’s value versus other currencies may erode or reverse gains from investments denominated in foreign currencies or widen losses. For instance, foreign governments may limit or prevent investors from transferring their capital out of a country. This may affect the value of your investment in the country that adopts such currency controls. Exchange rate fluctuations also may impair an issuer’s ability to repay US dollar denominated debt, thereby increasing credit risk of such debt. Finally, the value of foreign securities may be affected by incomplete or inaccurate financial information about their issuers, social upheavals or political actions ranging from tax code changes to governmental collapse. These risks are greater in the emerging markets than in the developed markets of Europe and Japan.

<R>

Investment Style Risk. The risk that the particular type of investment on which a Fund focuses (such as small cap value stocks or large-cap growth stocks) may underperform other asset classes or the overall market. Individual market segments tend to go through cycles of performing better or worse than other types of securities. These periods may last as long as several years. Additionally, a particular market segment could fall out of favor with investors, causing a Fund that focuses on that market segment to underperform those that favor other kinds of securities.

</R>

Leverage Risk. The risk associated with securities or investment practices that magnify small index or market movements into large changes in value. Leverage is often associated with investments in derivatives, but also may be embedded directly in the characteristics of other securities.

Liquidity Risk. The risk that a security may be difficult or impossible to sell at the time and price the seller wishes. The seller may have to accept a lower price for the security, sell other securities instead, or forego a more attractive investment opportunity. All of this could hamper the management or performance of a Fund.

Management Risk. The risk that a strategy used by a Fund’s portfolio manager may fail to produce the intended result. This includes the risk that changes in the value of a hedging instrument will not match those of the asset being hedged.

Market Risk. The risk that a security’s market value may decline, sometimes rapidly and unpredictably. These fluctuations may cause a security to be worth less than the price the investor originally paid for it, or less than it was worth at an earlier time. Market risk may affect a single issuer, industrial sector or the market as a whole. For fixed-income securities, market risk is largely influenced by changes in interest rates. Rising interest rates typically cause the value of bonds to decrease, while falling rates typically cause the value of bonds to increase.

<R>

Mid/Small Cap Stock Risk. To the extent that the Fund invests in small cap and mid cap stocks, it takes on additional risks. Small cap and mid cap stocks tend to be less liquid and more volatile than large cap stocks. Smaller companies tend to depend heavily on new products and/or a few products or services and often have less experienced management.

</R>

Political Risk. The risk of investment losses attributable to unfavorable governmental or political actions, seizure of foreign deposits, changes in tax or trade statutes, and governmental collapse and war.

Prepayment & Call Risk. The risk that a security’s principal will be repaid at an unexpected time. Prepayment and call risk are related, but differ somewhat. Prepayment risk is the chance that a large number of the mortgages underlying a mortgage-backed security will be refinanced sooner than the investor had expected. Call risk is the possibility that an issuer will “call”—or repay—a high-yielding bond before the bond’s maturity date. In both cases, the investor is usually forced to reinvest the proceeds in a security with a lower yield. This turnover may result in taxable capital gains and, in addition, may lower a portfolio’s income. If an investor paid a premium for the security, the prepayment may result in an unexpected capital loss.

Prepayment and call risk generally increase when interest rates decline, and can make a security’s yield as well as its market price more volatile. Generally speaking, the longer a security’s maturity, the greater the prepayment and call risk it poses.

Real Estate/REIT Risk. The Fund’s investments in REITs are subject to the same risks as direct investments in real estate. Real estate values rise and fall in response to many factors, including local, regional and national economic conditions, the demand for rental property, and interest rates. When economic growth is slowing, demand for property decreases and prices may fall. Rising interest rates, which drive up mortgage and financing costs, can inhibit construction, purchases, and sales of property. Property values could decrease because of overbuilding, extended vacancies, increase in property taxes and operating expenses, zoning laws, environmental regulations, clean-up of and liability for environmental hazards, uninsured casualty or condemnation losses, or a general decline in neighborhood values. The Fund’s investment may decline in response to declines in property values or other adverse changes to the real estate market. In addition, REITs may have limited financial resources, may trade less frequently and in limited volume and may be more volatile than other securities.

Regulatory Risk. The risk that federal and state laws may restrict an investor from seeking recourse when an issuer has defaulted on the interest and/or principal payments it owes on its obligations. These laws include restrictions on foreclosures, redemption rights after foreclosure, Federal and state bankruptcy and debtor relief laws, restrictions on “due on sale” clauses, and state usury laws.

Small-Company Stock Risk. Investing in small companies is generally more risky than investing in large companies, for a variety of reasons. Many small companies are young and have limited track records. They also may have limited product lines, markets or financial resources. They may, in addition, be more vulnerable to adverse business or economic developments than larger companies. Stocks issued by small companies tend to be less liquid and more volatile than stocks of larger companies or the market averages in general. In addition, small companies may not be well-known to the investing public, may not have institutional ownership, and may have only cyclical, static or moderate growth prospects. If a fund concentrates on small companies, its performance may be more volatile than that of a fund that invests primarily in larger companies.

Tax Risk. The risk that the issuer of a security will fail to comply with certain requirements of the Internal Revenue Code, which would cause adverse tax consequences for the issuer and potential losses for its investors.

Zero Coupon Risk. The market prices of securities structured as zero coupon or pay-in-kind securities are generally affected to a greater extent by interest rate changes. These securities tend to be more volatile than securities that pay interest periodically.

Introduction

Each Huntington Fund is a mutual fund. A mutual fund pools shareholders’ money and, using professional investment managers, invests it in securities such as stocks and bonds. Before you look at specific Huntington Funds, you should know a few basics about investing in mutual funds.

The value of your investment in a mutual fund is based on the market prices of the securities the mutual fund holds. These prices change daily due to economic trends and other developments that generally affect securities markets, as well as those that affect particular firms and other types of issuers. These price movements, also called volatility, vary depending on the types of securities a mutual fund owns and the markets where these securities trade.

As with other investments, you could lose money on your investment in a mutual fund. Your investment in the Huntington Funds is not a deposit or an obligation of The Huntington National Bank, its affiliates or any bank. It is not insured by the FDIC or any other government agency.

Each Fund has its own investment goal and strategies for reaching that goal. There is no guarantee that a Fund will achieve its goal. Before investing, make sure that the Fund’s goal matches your own. Each Fund’s investment goal is fundamental and may be changed only by a vote of a majority of the Fund’s outstanding shares. Unless otherwise noted, each Fund’s investment strategies are not fundamental and may be changed by the Trust’s Board of Trustees.

The portfolio manager invests each Fund’s assets in a way that he or she believes will help the Fund achieve its goal. A manager’s judgments about the securities markets, economy and companies, and his or her investment selection, may cause a Fund to underperform other funds with similar objectives.

Investment Strategy

The Huntington Money Market Fund seeks to maximize current income while preserving capital and maintaining liquidity by investing in a portfolio of high quality money market instruments.

<R>

The Adviser strives to maintain a $1.00 net asset value per share for the Money Market Fund by investing in commercial paper and other short-term money market instruments for the Money Market Fund which are either rated in the highest rating category by a Nationally Recognized Statistical Rating Organization or unrated and deemed to be of comparable quality by the Adviser. In managing the portfolio, the Adviser determines an appropriate maturity range for the Fund (currently between 25 and 60 days) and each individual security held and endeavors to diversify the portfolio across market sectors. The Adviser employs a top-down analysis of economic and market factors to select Fund investments. In addition, the Adviser analyzes cash flows, maturities, settlements, tax payments, yields and credit quality and monitors new issue calendars for potential purchases.

</R>

For a more complete description of the securities in which the Fund can invest, please see “Investment Practices.”

What are the main risks of investing in this Fund?

Loss of money is a risk of investing in the Fund. In addition, your investment in the Fund may be subject to the following principal risks:

Interest-Rate Risk: The possibility that the value of the Fund’s investments will decline due to an increase in interest rates, or that the Fund’s yield will decrease due to a decline in interest rates.

<R>

Credit Risk: The possibility that an issuer cannot make timely interest and principal payments on its securities. In general, the lower a security’s credit rating, the higher its credit risk. For more information about risks, please see the “Glossary of Investment Risks.”

</R>

An investment in the Fund is not a deposit or an obligation of The Huntington National Bank, its affiliates or any bank, and it is not insured or guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation 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.

Yield

The income a fund generates is commonly referred to as its “yield.” For money market funds, yield is a more useful indication than total return of how a portfolio is performing. As a result, advertisements and other communications about the Huntington Money Market Fund will typically mention the portfolio’s yield. There are various types of yield, including current or 7-day yield and effective yield. All mutual funds must use the same formulas to calculate each of these yields.

The formula for effective yield assumes that investors take advantage of compounding by reinvesting their dividends; current or seven-day yield does not make the same assumption. As a result, a portfolio’s effective yield typically will be slightly higher than its current or seven-day yield. Both types of yield will tend to fluctuate daily due to such factors as a fund’s interest-rate exposure as well as the type and credit quality of its portfolio holdings.

To obtain current yield information for the Fund, please call 1-800-253-0412.

Purchasing Shares

<R>

You may purchase Interfund Shares on any business day when the Federal Reserve Bank, the New York Stock Exchange and the principal bond markets (as recommended by the Bond Market Association) are open, and as discussed below.

</R>

What Shares Cost

<R>

The offering price of an Interfund Share is its net asset value (determined after the order is considered received).The Trust calculates the net asset value per share for the Fund offered in this prospectus twice a day, at 1:00 p.m. Eastern Time and as of the close of regular trading on the New York Stock Exchange (normally, 4:00 p.m. Eastern Time), on each day that the Exchange is open.

In addition, the Money Market Funds reserve the right to allow the purchase, redemption, and exchange of shares on any other day on which regular trading in money market instruments is taking place. On any day that the bond markets close early, such as days in advance of holidays or in the event of any emergency, the Money Market Funds reserve the right to advance the time net asset value is determined and by which purchase, redemption, and exchange orders must be received on that day, to the time of such closing. Please call the Huntington Funds at (800) 253-0412, if you have any questions about purchasing shares.

</R>

Shareholder Information

<R>

The Trust attempts to stabilize the net asset value per share for the Money Market Fund at $1.00 per share by valuing its portfolio securities using the amortized cost method. These valuation methods are more fully described in the Trust’s Statement of Additional Information.

</R>

Your order for purchase is priced at the next net asset value calculated after your order is received. With regard to investments in the Money Market Fund, you will begin earning dividends on the day your order is received if the Trust receives payment in federal funds before 1:00 p.m. (Eastern Time). Investments in the Money Market Fund made by check,ACH or SIP are considered received when the payment is converted to federal funds (normally the next business day).

Additional Information

It is the intermediary’s responsibility to transmit orders promptly, however, you should allow sufficient time for orderly processing and transmission.

Dividends and Distributions

<R>

The Money Market Fund declares dividends on investment income daily and pays them monthly. The Fund also makes distributions of net capital gains, if any, at least annually.

</R>

Distribution Options

All dividends and distributions payable to a holder of Interfund Shares will be automatically reinvested in additional shares of the same class of the income-producing Fund, unless the shareholder makes an alternative election. Shareholders of the Fund offered by this Prospectus may choose to receive all distributions in cash. Shareholders of the Fund offered by this Prospectus may choose to reinvest capital gains distributions, but receive all other distributions in cash.

Tax Consequences

There are many important tax consequences associated with investment in the Fund offered by this Prospectus. The following is a brief summary of certain income tax consequences relating to an investment in the Fund, and shareholders are urged to consult their own tax advisors regarding the taxation of their investments under federal, state and local laws.

Federal Income Taxes

Taxation of Shareholder Transactions

<R>

An exchange of a Fund’s shares for shares of another Fund will be treated as a sale of the Fund’s shares and, as with all sales, exchanges or redemptions of Fund shares, any gain on the transaction will be subject to federal income tax.

</R>

Taxation of Distributions

<R>

The Fund offered by this prospectus intends to distribute substantially all of its net investment income (including net capital gains and tax-exempt interest income, if any) to its shareholders at least annually. Unless otherwise exempt or as discussed below, shareholders are required to pay federal income tax on any dividends and other distributions, including capital gains distributions received. This applies whether dividends and other distributions are received in cash or as additional shares. Distributions representing long-term capital gains, if any, will be taxable to shareholders as long-term capital gains no matter how long a shareholder has held the shares. Distributions are taxable to shareholders even if they are paid from income or gains earned by the Fund before a shareholder’s investment (and thus were included in the price paid).

Exempt-Interest Dividends

If, at the end of each quarter of its taxable year, at least 50% of the value of a Fund’s assets consists of obligations the interest on which is excludable from gross income, the Fund may pay “exempt-interest dividends” to its shareholders. Generally, exempt-interest dividends will be excluded from gross income for federal income tax purposes. However, exempt-interest dividends attributable to investments in certain “private activity” bonds will be treated as tax preference items in computing the alternative minimum tax. Also, a portion of all other exempt-interest dividends earned by a corporation may be subject to the alternative minimum tax. In certain limited instances, the portion of Social Security or Railroad Retirement benefits that may be subject to federal income taxation may be affected by the amount of tax-exempt interest income, including exempt-interest dividends, received by a shareholder.

</R>

Avoid Withholding Tax

<R>

The Fund is required to withhold a portion of taxable dividends, capital gains distributions and proceeds of sales, exchanges, or redemptions paid to any shareholder who has not provided the Fund with his or her certified Taxpayer Identification Number (your Social Security Number for individual investors) in compliance with IRS rules. To avoid this withholding, make sure you provide your correct Tax Identification Number.

Glossary of Investment Risks

This section discusses the risks associated with the securities and investment techniques listed above, as well as the risks mentioned under the heading “What are the main risks of investing in this Fund?” in each Fund profile. Because of these risks, the value of the securities held by the Funds may fluctuate, as will the value of your investment in the Funds. Certain types of investments and Funds are more susceptible to these risks than others.

Credit Risk. The risk that the issuer of a security, or the counterparty to a contract, will default or otherwise become unable to honor a financial obligation. Generally speaking, the lower a security’s credit rating, the higher its credit risk. If a security’s credit rating is downgraded, its price tends to decline sharply, especially as it becomes more probable that the issuer will default.

<R>

Leverage Risk. The risk associated with securities or investment practices that magnify small index or market movements into large changes in value. Leverage is often associated with investments in derivatives, but also may be embedded directly in the characteristics of other securities.

Liquidity Risk. The risk that a security may be difficult or impossible to sell at the time and price the seller wishes. The seller may have to accept a lower price for the security, sell other securities instead, or forego a more attractive investment opportunity. All of this could hamper the management or performance of a Fund.

</R>

Management Risk. The risk that a strategy used by a Fund’s portfolio manager may fail to produce the intended result. This includes the risk that changes in the value of a hedging instrument will not match those of the asset being hedged.

Market Risk. The risk that a security’s market value may decline, sometimes rapidly and unpredictably. These fluctuations may cause a security to be worth less than the price the investor originally paid for it, or less than it was worth at an earlier time. Market risk may affect a single issuer, industrial sector or the market as a whole. For fixed-income securities, market risk is largely influenced by changes in interest rates. Rising interest rates typically cause the value of bonds to decrease, while falling rates typically cause the value of bonds to increase.

<R>

Prepayment & Call Risk The risk that a security’s principal will be repaid at an unexpected time. Prepayment and call risk are related, but differ somewhat. Prepayment risk is the chance that a large number of the mortgages underlying a mortgage-backed security will be refinanced sooner than the investor had expected. Call risk is the possibility that an issuer will “call” —or repay—a high-yielding bond before the bond’s maturity date. In both cases, the investor is usually forced to reinvest the proceeds in a security with a lower yield. This turnover may result in taxable capital gains and, in addition, may lower a portfolio’s income. If an investor paid a premium for the security, the prepayment may result in an unexpected capital loss.

Prepayment and call risk generally increase when interest rates decline, and can make a security’s yield as well as its market price more volatile. Generally speaking, the longer a security’s maturity, the greater the prepayment and call risk it poses.

Regulatory Risk. The risk that federal and state laws may restrict an investor from seeking recourse when an issuer has defaulted on the interest and/or principal payments it owes on its obligations. These laws include restrictions on foreclosures, redemption rights after foreclosure, Federal and state bankruptcy and debtor relief laws, restrictions on “due on sale” clauses, and state usury laws.

"Edgewood"           -- Edgewood Services, Inc., the Trust's distributor.

       The Trust was organized as a  Massachusetts  business trust on February

to the Huntington Funds on January 1, 1999.

       The Trust is an open-end,  management  investment company consisting of
seventeen  separate  Funds with separate  investment  objectives and policies.
Each of these Funds,  except the Tax-Exempt  Funds, is diversified.  The Funds
may  offer  one or more of the  following  classes  of  shares:  Investment  A
Shares,  Investment B Shares, and Trust Shares. In addition,  the Money Market
Fund offers Interfund Shares.  This SAI relates to all classes of shares.

                        INVESTMENT PRACTICES AND RISKS

       The Prospectuses discuss the principal investment  strategies and risks
of investing  in each of the Funds.  Below you will find more detail about the
types  of  investments  and  investment  practices  permitted  by  each  Fund,
including those which are not part of a Fund's principal  investment strategy.
In  addition,  we have  included  discussions  relating to the  special  risks
associated with investment in each of the Tax-Exempt Funds.

Adjustable Rate Notes

<R>

       Consistent with its investment objective,  policies,  and restrictions,
each Fund may invest in "adjustable  rate notes," which include  variable rate
notes and  floating  rate notes.  For Money Market Fund  purposes,  a variable
rate note is one whose terms  provide  for the  readjustment  of its  interest
rate on set  dates  and  that,  upon  such  readjustment,  can  reasonably  be
expected to have a market value that  approximates  its  amortized  cost;  the
degree  to  which  a  variable  rate  note's  market  value  approximates  its
amortized cost subsequent to readjustment  will depend on the frequency of the
readjustment  of the  note's  interest  rate and the  length of time that must
elapse before the next  readjustment.  A floating rate note is one whose terms
provide  for the  readjustment  of its  interest  rate  whenever  a  specified
interest  rate changes and that,  at any time,  can  reasonably be expected to
have a market value that  approximates its amortized cost.  Although there may
be no active  secondary  market  with  respect  to a  particular  variable  or
floating rate note  purchased by a Fund,  the Fund may seek to resell the note
at any time to a third  party.  The  absence  of an active  secondary  market,
however,  could make it  difficult  for the Fund to  dispose of a variable  or
floating  rate  note in the  event the  issuer  of the note  defaulted  on its
payment  obligations  and the Fund  could,  as a result or for other  reasons,
suffer a loss to the extent of the  default.  Variable or floating  rate notes
may be secured by bank letters of credit.  A demand  instrument  with a demand
notice period  exceeding seven days may be considered  illiquid if there is no
secondary market for such security.  Such security will be subject to a Fund's
non   fundamental   15%   limitation   governing   investments  in  "illiquid"
securities,  unless  such  notes are  subject  to a demand  feature  that will
permit the Fund to receive  payment of the principal  within seven days of the
Fund's demand. See "INVESTMENT RESTRICTIONS" on page 50.

</R>

Asset-backed Securities (Non-mortgage)
       Consistent with its investment  objective,  policies and  restrictions,
certain Funds may invest in asset-backed  securities.  Asset-backed securities
are instruments secured by company receivables,  truck and auto loans, leases,
and  credit  card  receivables.   Such  securities  are  generally  issued  as
pass-through  certificates,  which represent  undivided  fractional  ownership
interests in the underlying pools of assets.  Such securities also may be debt
instruments,  which  are also  known  as  collateralized  obligations  and are
generally  issued as the debt of a special  purpose  entity,  such as a trust,
organized solely for the purpose of owning such assets and issuing such debt.

       The  purchase  of  non-mortgage  asset-backed  securities  raises  risk
considerations  peculiar to the financing of the  instruments  underlying such
securities. Like mortgages underlying mortgage-backed  securities,  underlying
automobile   sales  contracts  or  credit  card  receivables  are  subject  to
substantial   prepayment   risk,  which  may  reduce  the  overall  return  to
certificate  holders.  Nevertheless,  principal  prepayment  rates tend not to
vary as much in  response  to changes  in  interest  rates and the  short-term
nature of the  underlying  car loans or other  receivables  tend to dampen the
impact of any change in the  prepayment  level.  Certificate  holders may also
experience  delays in payment on the  certificates  if the full amounts due on
underlying  sales  contracts  or  receivables  are not  realized  by the trust
because  of  unanticipated  legal or  administrative  costs of  enforcing  the
contracts  or because of  depreciation  or damage to the  collateral  (usually
automobiles) securing certain contracts,  or other factors. If consistent with
their  investment  objectives  and  policies,  the Funds  may  invest in other
asset-backed securities that may be developed in the future.

Common Stock

       Common  stock  is  a  type  of  equity  security  which  represents  an
ownership  interest in a corporation  and the right to a portion of the assets
of the  corporation  in the event of  liquidation.  This  right,  however,  is
subordinate to that of preferred  stockholders  and any  creditors,  including
holders  of debt  issued  by the  corporation.  Owners  of  common  stock  are
generally  entitled  to vote  on  important  matters.  A  corporation  may pay
dividends on common stock.

       Each of the Equity Funds may invest in common stock.

Convertible Securities

       Convertible  securities  include  fixed income  securities  that may be
exchanged or converted into a  predetermined  number of shares of the issuer's
underlying  common  stock at the  option  of the  holder  during  a  specified
period.  Convertible  securities  may take the form of  convertible  preferred
stock,  convertible  bonds or debentures,  units  consisting of "usable" bonds
and warrants or a combination of the features of several of these  securities.
The  investment  characteristics  of each  convertible  security  vary widely,
which  allows  convertible   securities  to  be  employed  for  a  variety  of
investment  strategies.  A Fund  will  exchange  or  convert  the  convertible
securities  held in its portfolio into shares of the  underlying  common stock
when, in its investment adviser's opinion,  the investment  characteristics of
the underlying  common shares will assist the Fund in achieving its investment
objective. Otherwise the Fund may hold or trade convertible securities.

       Each of the Equity Funds may invest in convertible securities.

Concentration Risk

       When a Fund  invests more than 25% of its net assets in  securities  of
issuers  within a  particular  geographic  region,  it is subject to increased
risk.  As is the  case  with  respect  to  each  of the  Single  State  Funds,
performance  will  generally  depend on the  region's  performance,  which may
differ in  direction  and degree from that of the  overall  stock  market.  In
addition,  financial,  economic, business and political developments affecting
the region may have a greater effect on these Funds.


Corporate Debt (Including Bonds, Notes and Debentures)
       Corporate  debt includes any  obligation  of a  corporation  to repay a
borrowed  amount  at  maturity  and  usually  to pay the  holder  interest  at
specific  intervals.  Corporate  debt can have a long or short maturity and is
often  rated  by  one  or  more  nationally   recognized   statistical  rating
organizations.  See the  Appendix  to  this  SAI for a  description  of  these
ratings.

       Each of the Funds,  except the U.S.  Treasury  Money Market  Fund,  the
Rotating Index Fund and the Growth Fund, may invest in corporate bonds.

Credit (or Default) Risk

       To the extent that a Fund invests in corporate  debt,  U.S.  Government
securities,  mortgage-related  securities or other fixed income securities, it
is subject to the risk that an issuer of those  securities  may default on its
obligation  to  pay  interest  and  repay  principal.  Also,  changes  in  the
financial  strength of an issuer or changes in the credit rating of a security
may affect its value.  Credit risk includes  "counterparty  risk," -- the risk
that  the  other  party to a  transaction  will not  fulfill  its  contractual
obligation.  This risk applies,  for example,  to repurchase  agreements  into
which  a  Fund  may  enter.   Securities  rated  below  investment  grade  are
particularly subject to credit risk.

Credit-enhanced Securities

       Credit-enhanced  securities are securities whose credit rating has been
enhanced,  typically  by the  existence  of a  guarantee,  letter  of  credit,
insurance  or  unconditional   demand  feature.  In  most  cases,   Huntington
evaluates the credit quality and ratings of  credit-enhanced  securities based
upon the  financial  condition  and ratings of the party  providing the credit
enhancement (the "credit  enhancer") rather than the issuer.  However,  except
where prohibited by Rule 2a-7 under the 1940 Act,  credit-enhanced  securities
will  not be  treated  as  having  been  issued  by the  credit  enhancer  for
diversification  purposes,  unless the Fund has invested  more than 10% of its
assets in securities  issued,  guaranteed or otherwise  credit enhanced by the
credit  enhancer,  in which case the securities will be treated as having been
issued  both  by  the  issuer  and  the  credit   enhancer.   The  bankruptcy,
receivership  or default  of the credit  enhancer  will  adversely  affect the
quality  and  marketability  of the  underlying  security.  A  default  on the
underlying  security or other event that  terminates a demand feature prior to
its exercise will adversely affect the liquidity of the underlying security.

       All of the Funds may invest in  credit-enhanced  securities.  The Money
Market  Funds are  subject to the  diversification  requirements  relating  to
credit-enhanced  securities  imposed  by Rule 2a-7 of the 1940  Act.  The Ohio
Municipal  Money Market Fund may not invest,  with respect to 75% of its total
assets,  more than 10% of its total assets in the  credit-enhanced  securities
of one credit enhancer.

Defensive Investments

       At  times  Huntington  may  determine  that  conditions  in  securities
markets  may  make   pursuing  a  Fund's   principal   investment   strategies
inconsistent  with the best  interests  of the  Fund's  shareholders.  At such
times,  Huntington  may  temporarily  use  alternative  strategies,  primarily
designed  to  reduce  fluctuations  in  the  value  of  a  Fund's  assets.  In
implementing these temporary  "defensive"  strategies,  a Fund may temporarily
place all or a portion  of its  assets in cash,  U.S.  Government  securities,
debt securities which Huntington  considers to be of comparable quality to the
acceptable  investments  of the Fund and other  investments  which  Huntington
considers  consistent  with such  strategies.  In the case of the Single State
Funds,  a Fund's  alternative  strategies may give rise to income which is not
exempt from federal or state taxes.

Dollar Roll Transactions

       A dollar roll transaction is a transactions  through which a Fund sells
certain  of its  securities  to  financial  institutions  such  as  banks  and
broker-dealers,  and agrees to repurchase  substantially similar securities at
a  mutually  agreed  upon date and  price.  At the time a Fund  enters  into a
dollar roll agreement,  it will place in a segregated custodial account assets
such as U.S. Government  securities or other liquid high grade debt securities
consistent  with  its  investment  restrictions  having  a value  equal to the
repurchase  price  (including   accrued   interest),   and  will  subsequently
continually  monitor  the  account  to insure  that such  equivalent  value is
maintained  at all times.  Dollar  roll  agreements  involve the risk that the
market  value of  securities  sold by a Fund may  decline  below  the price at
which it is obligated to repurchase  the  securities.  Dollar roll  agreements
are  considered to be  borrowings by an investment  company under the 1940 Act
and,  therefore,  a form of leverage.  A Fund may experience a negative impact
on its net asset  value if  interest  rates  rise  during the term of a dollar
roll  agreement.  A Fund generally will invest the proceeds of such borrowings
only when such  borrowings  will  enhance a Fund's  liquidity or when the Fund
reasonably  expects that the interest  income to be earned from the investment
of the proceeds is greater than the interest expense of the transaction.

       Only the Mortgage  Securities Fund engages in dollar roll  transactions
with respect to its mortgage-related securities.

Equity Risk

       Equity  risk is the risk  that  stock  prices  will  fall  quickly  and
dramatically  over short or extended  periods of time.  Stock  markets tend to
move in cycles,  with periods of rising  prices and period of falling  prices.
Often,  dramatic  movements  in  prices  occur in  response  to  reports  of a
company's  earnings,  economic  statistics  or other  factors  which affect an
issuer's profitability.

       To the extent that a Fund invests in smaller  capitalization stocks, it
may be subject to greater  risks than  those  associated  with  investment  in
larger,  more  established  companies.  Small  companies  tend to have limited
product  lines,  markets or  financial  resources,  and may be  dependent on a
small management group.  Small company stocks may be subject to more abrupt or
erratic price movements,  for reasons such as lower trading  volumes,  greater
sensitivity  to  changing   conditions  and  less  certain  growth  prospects.
Additionally,  there are  fewer  market  makers  for  these  stocks  and wider
spreads  between  quoted bid and asked prices in the  over-the-counter  market
for  these  stocks.  Small  cap  stocks  also tend to be  subject  to  greater
liquidity risk,  particularly  during periods of market disruption,  and there
is often less publicly available information concerning these securities.

Equity Securities

<R>

       Equity  securities  include both foreign and  domestic  common  stocks,
preferred  stocks,  securities  convertible  or  exchangeable  into  common or
preferred stocks,  and other securities which Huntington  believes have common
stock characteristics, such as rights and warrants.

</R>

Extension Risk

       Extension risk is the possibility  that rising interest rates may cause
prepayments to occur at a slower than expected rate.  This particular risk may
effectively    change   a   security   which   was   considered    short-   or
intermediate-term   at  the  time  of  purchase  into  a  long-term  security.
Long-term  securities  generally  fluctuate more widely in response to changes
in interest rates than short- or intermediate-term securities.

Fixed Income Securities

       Fixed  income  securities  include  corporate  debt  securities,   U.S.
Government securities,  mortgage-related securities, tax-exempt securities and
any other securities which provide a stream of fixed payments to the holder.

Foreign Currency Options (Also See "Options")

       Options  on  foreign   currencies   operate  similarly  to  options  on
securities,   and  are  traded  primarily  in  the   over-the-counter   market
(so-called  "OTC  options"),  although  options  on  foreign  currencies  have
recently  been  listed on several  exchanges.  Options  will be  purchased  or
written only when Huntington  believes that a liquid  secondary  market exists
for such options.  There can be no assurance  that a liquid  secondary  market
will exist for a particular  option at any specific  time.  Options on foreign
currencies  are  affected by all of those  factors  which  influence  exchange
rates and investments generally.

       Purchases and sales of options may be used to increase  current return.
They are also used in  connection  with  hedging  transactions.  See  "Foreign
Currency Transactions."

       Writing  covered  call  options on  currencies  may offset  some of the
costs  of  hedging  against  fluctuations  in  currency  exchange  rates.  For
transaction hedging purposes a Fund may also purchase  exchange-listed and OTC
put and call  options on foreign  currency  futures  contracts  and on foreign
currencies.  A put  option  on a  futures  contract  gives a Fund the right to
assume a short  position  in the  futures  contract  until  expiration  of the
option.  A call option on a futures  contract gives a Fund the right to assume
a long position in the futures contract until the expiration of the option.

       The value of a foreign  currency  option is dependent upon the value of
the foreign currency and the U.S. dollar,  and may have no relationship to the
investment   merits  of  a  foreign   security.   Because   foreign   currency
transactions  occurring in the interbank market involve  substantially  larger
amounts  than  those  that  may be  involved  in the use of  foreign  currency
options,  investors maybe disadvantaged by having to deal in an odd lot market
(generally  consisting  of  transactions  of  less  than $1  million)  for the
underlying  foreign  currencies  at prices  that are less  favorable  than for
round lots.

       There is no systematic  reporting of last sale  information for foreign
currencies and there is no regulatory  requirement  that quotations  available
through  dealers or other market sources be firm or revised on a timely basis.
Available  quotation  information  is generally  representative  of very large
transactions  in the  interbank  market  and thus may not  reflect  relatively
smaller   transactions  (less  than  $1  million)  where  rates  may  be  less
favorable.   The  interbank   market  in  foreign   currencies  is  a  global,
around-the-clock  market.  To the extent  that the U.S.  options  markets  are
closed  while  the  markets  for  the  underlying   currencies   remain  open,
significant price and rate movements may take place in the underlying  markets
that cannot be reflected in the U.S. options markets.

       Each of the Growth  Fund,  Income  Equity  Fund,  Rotating  Index Fund,
International    Equity    Fund,    Fixed   Income    Securities    Fund   and
Short/Intermediate   Fixed  Income  Securities  Fund  may  invest  in  foreign
currency options.

Foreign Currency Transactions

       Foreign currency  transactions  include  purchasing and selling foreign
currencies,  entering  into  forward or futures  contracts to purchase or sell
foreign  currencies  (see  "Forward  Foreign  Currency  and  Foreign  Currency
Futures Contracts"),  and purchasing and selling options on foreign currencies
(see "Foreign Currency  Options").  Foreign currency  transactions may be used
to hedge against  uncertainty in the level of future foreign currency exchange
rates and to increase current return.

       Purchases  and sales of foreign  currencies on a spot basis are used to
increase  current  return.   They  are  also  used  in  connection  with  both
"transaction hedging" and "position hedging."

       Transaction   hedging   involves   entering   into   foreign   currency
transactions  with  respect to  specific  receivables  or  payables  generally
arising in  connection  with the  purchase  or sale of  portfolio  securities.
Transaction  hedging is used to "lock in" the U.S.  dollar price of a security
to be  purchased  or sold,  or the U.S.  dollar  equivalent  of a dividend  or
interest  payment  in a foreign  currency.  The goal is to  protect  against a
possible loss  resulting from an adverse  change in the  relationship  between
the U.S. dollar and the applicable  foreign currency during the period between
the date on which the  security is  purchased or sold or on which the dividend
or interest payment is declared,  and the date on which such payments are made
or received.

       Position hedging involves  entering into foreign currency  transactions
either to protect  against:  (i) a decline in the value of a foreign  currency
in which a security held or to be sold is denominated;  or (ii) an increase in
the  value of a  foreign  currency  in which a  security  to be  purchased  is
denominated.  In connection with position hedging,  a Fund may purchase put or
call options on foreign currency and foreign  currency  futures  contracts and
buy or sell forward contracts and foreign currency futures contracts.

       Neither  transaction nor position  hedging  eliminates  fluctuations in
the  underlying  prices  of the  securities  which a Fund owns or  intends  to
purchase  or sell.  They  simply  establish  a rate of  exchange  which can be
achieved  at  some  future  point  in  time.   Additionally,   although  these
techniques  tend to minimize the risk of loss due to a decline in the value of
the hedged  currency,  they also tend to limit any potential  gain which might
result from the increase in the value of such currency.

       Hedging  transactions  are subject to correlation  risk due to the fact
that the amounts of foreign  currency  exchange  transactions and the value of
the portfolio  securities  involved  will not generally be perfectly  matched.
This is because  the future  value of such  securities  in foreign  currencies
will  change as a  consequence  of  market  movements  in the  values of those
securities  between the dates the currency  exchange  transactions are entered
into and the dates they mature.

transactions.

Forward Foreign Currency and Foreign Currency Futures Contracts

<R>

       A forward foreign currency  contract involves an obligation to purchase
or sell a specific  currency at a future  date,  which may be any fixed number
of days from the date of the  contract  as agreed by the  parties,  at a price
set  at the  time  of  the  contract.  In the  case  of a  cancelable  forward
contract,  the  holder has the  unilateral  right to cancel  the  contract  at
maturity by paying a specified  fee. The contracts are traded in the interbank
market  conducted  directly between currency traders (usually large commercial
banks)  and their  customers.  A forward  contract  generally  has no  deposit
requirement, and no commissions are charged at any stage for trades.

       A foreign currency futures contract is a standardized  contract for the
future delivery of a specified  amount of a foreign  currency at a future date
at a  price  set at  the  time  of  the  contract.  Foreign  currency  futures
contracts  traded in the United States are designed by and traded on exchanges
regulated by the Commodity  Futures Trading  Commission (the "CFTC"),  such as
the New York Mercantile Exchange.

       Forward  foreign  currency   contracts  differ  from  foreign  currency
futures  contracts in certain  respects.  For example,  the maturity date of a
forward  contract  may be any  fixed  number  of  days  from  the  date of the
contract  agreed upon by the parties,  rather than a  predetermined  date in a
given  month.  Forward  contracts  may be in any  amounts  agreed  upon by the
parties rather than  predetermined  amounts.  Also,  forward foreign  currency
contracts  are  traded   directly   between   currency   traders  so  that  no
intermediary is required.  A forward contract  generally requires no margin or
other deposit.

       At the  maturity  of a forward or futures  contract,  a Fund may either
accept or make delivery of the currency  specified in the  contract,  or at or
prior to maturity enter into a closing  transaction  involving the purchase or
sale of an offsetting  contract.  Closing transactions with respect to forward
contracts are usually  effected with the currency trader who is a party to the
original  forward  contract.  Closing  transactions  with  respect  to futures
contracts  are  effected on a  commodities  exchange;  a clearing  corporation
associated  with the  exchange  assumes  responsibility  for  closing out such
contracts.

       Forward  foreign  currency   contracts  and  foreign  currency  futures
contracts  can be used to  increase  current  return.  They are  also  used in
connection  with  both  "transaction  hedging"  and  "position  hedging."  See
"Foreign Currency Transactions."

       Among the risks of using  foreign  currency  futures  contracts  is the
fact that  positions  in these  contracts  (and any  related  options)  may be
closed out only on an exchange  or board of trade  which  provides a secondary
market.  Although it is intended that any Fund using foreign  currency futures
contracts and related  options will only purchase or sell them on exchanges or
boards of trade where there appears to be an active  secondary  market,  there
is no assurance that a secondary  market on an exchange or board of trade will
exist for any  particular  contract or option or at any  particular  time.  In
such  event,  it may not be  possible  to close a futures  or  related  option
position and, in the event of adverse price  movements,  a Fund would continue
to be required to make daily cash payments of variation  margin on its futures
positions.

       In addition,  it is impossible  to forecast  with  precision the market
value of a security  at the  expiration  or  maturity  of a forward or futures
contract.  Accordingly,  it may be  necessary to purchase  additional  foreign
currency on the spot market  (and bear the  expense of such  purchase)  if the
market value of the  security  being hedged is less than the amount of foreign
currency a Fund is  obligated to deliver and if a decision is made to sell the
security  and make  delivery of the foreign  currency.  Conversely,  it may be
necessary  to sell on the spot market some of the  foreign  currency  received
upon the sale of the hedged  portfolio  security  if the market  value of such
security  exceeds  the  amount of  foreign  currency  a Fund is  obligated  to
deliver.

       When a Fund  purchases or sells a futures  contract,  it is required to
deposit with its custodian an amount of cash or U.S.  Treasury  bills up to 5%
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 a Fund upon  termination  of the  contract,
assuming a Fund satisfies its contractual obligation.

       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 a Fund sells a futures  contract and the price
of the  underlying  currency  rises  above  the  delivery  price,  the  Fund's
position  declines in value.  The Fund then pays a broker a  variation  margin
payment  equal to the  difference  between the  delivery  price of the futures
contract  and  the  market  price  of  the  currency  underlying  the  futures
contract.  Conversely, if the price of the underlying currency 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 market
price of the currency underlying the futures contract.

       When a 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 gain.  Such  closing  transactions
involve additional commission costs.

       Each of the Growth  Fund,  Income  Equity  Fund,  Rotating  Index Fund,
International  Equity Fund,  Mid Corp America Fund,  New Economy  Fund,  Fixed
Income  Securities Fund and  Short/Intermediate  Fixed Income  Securities Fund
may invest in forward foreign currency and foreign currency futures contracts.

Foreign Securities (including Emerging Markets)

       Foreign  securities are those  securities which are issued by companies
located outside the United States and principally  traded in foreign  markets.
This includes equity and debt  securities of foreign  entities and obligations
of foreign  branches of U.S. and foreign banks.  Permissible  investments  may
consist  of  obligations  of foreign  branches  of U.S.  banks and  foreign or
domestic  branches  of  foreign  banks,  including  European  Certificates  of
Deposit,   European   Time   Deposits,   Canadian  Time  Deposits  and  Yankee
Certificates  of  Deposits,  and  investments  in Canadian  Commercial  Paper,
foreign  securities  and  Europaper.  In  addition,  the Funds  may  invest in
depositary  receipts.  The  Funds  may also  invest  in  securities  issued or
guaranteed by foreign  corporations  or foreign  governments,  their political
subdivisions,  agencies or instrumentalities  and obligations of supranational
entities such as the World Bank and the Asian Development Bank.  Investment in
foreign securities is subject to a number of special risks.

       Since  foreign  securities  are  normally  denominated  and  traded  in
foreign  currencies,  the value of a Fund's assets invested in such securities
may be  affected  favorably  or  unfavorably  by currency  exchange  rates and
exchange   control   regulation.   Exchange  rates  with  respect  to  certain
currencies  may  be  particularly  volatile.  Additionally,  although  foreign
exchange dealers do not charge a fee for currency conversion,  they do realize
a profit based on the difference  (the "spread")  between prices at which they
buy and sell  various  currencies.  Thus, a dealer may offer to sell a foreign
currency  to a Fund at one rate,  while  offering  a lesser  rate of  exchange
should a Fund desire to resell that currency to the dealer.

       There  may be less  information  publicly  available  about  a  foreign
company than about a U.S.  company,  and foreign  companies  are not generally
subject  to  accounting,  auditing,  and  financial  reporting  standards  and
practices  comparable to those in the United  States.  The  securities of some
foreign  companies are less liquid and at times more volatile than  securities
of comparable U.S.  companies.  Foreign  brokerage  commissions and other fees
are also  generally  higher  than in the  United  States.  Foreign  settlement
procedures and trade  regulations may involve certain risks (such as delays in
payment or delivery of  securities  or in the recovery of a Fund's assets held
abroad) and expenses not present in the settlement of domestic investments.

       In addition,  with  respect to certain  foreign  countries,  there is a
possibility  of  nationalization  or  expropriation  of  assets,  confiscatory
taxation,  political  or financial  instability  and  diplomatic  developments
which could affect the value of  investments  in those  countries.  In certain
countries,  legal  remedies  available to  investors  may be more limited than
those  available  with respect to  investments  in the United  States or other
countries.  The laws of some foreign  countries may limit a Fund's  ability to
invest in securities of certain  issuers located in those  countries.  Special
tax considerations apply to foreign securities.

       On  January  1,  1999,  the  European  Monetary  Market  Union  ("EMU")
introduced  a new single  currency,  the euro,  which  replaced  the  national
currency for  participating  member  countries.  Those  countries are Austria,
Belgium,   Finland,   France,  Germany,   Ireland,  Italy,   Luxembourg,   the
Netherlands,  Portugal  and Spain.  A new  European  Central  Bank ("ECB") was
created to manage the monetary policy of the new unified  region.  On the same
day,  exchange rates were irrevocably  fixed between the EMU member countries.
National  currencies  will  continue to  circulate  until they are replaced by
coins and banks notes by the middle of 2002.

       The International  Equity Fund may invest in the securities of emerging
market issuers.  Investing in emerging market securities  involves risks which
are in  addition  to the usual risks  inherent  in foreign  investments.  Some
emerging markets  countries may have fixed or managed  currencies that are not
free-floating against the U.S. dollar. Further,  certain currencies may not be
traded internationally.  Certain of these currencies have experienced a steady
devaluation  relative to the U.S. dollar. Any devaluation in the currencies in
which the Fund's  securities are denominated may have a detrimental  impact on
the Fund.

       Some  countries  with  emerging  securities  markets  have  experienced
substantial,  and in some periods  extremely high, rates of inflation for many
years.  Inflation and rapid  fluctuation  in inflation  rates have had and may
continue to have negative  effects on the economies and securities  markets of
certain  countries.  Moreover,  the  economies  of some  countries  may differ
favorably or  unfavorably  from the U.S.  economy in such  respects as rate of
growth  of  gross   domestic   product,   the  rate  of   inflation,   capital
reinvestment,  resource  self-sufficiency,  number  and  depth  of  industries
forming the economy's base,  governmental controls and investment restrictions
that are  subject to  political  change  and  balance  of  payments  position.
Further,  there may be greater  difficulties or  restrictions  with respect to
investments made in emerging markets countries.

       Emerging  markets  typically have  substantially  less volume than U.S.
markets. In addition,  securities in many of such markets are less liquid, and
their prices often are more  volatile,  than  securities  of  comparable  U.S.
companies.   Such  markets  often  have  different  clearance  and  settlement
procedures  for securities  transactions,  and in some markets there have been
times  when  settlements  have been  unable  to keep  pace with the  volume of
transactions,   making  it  difficult  to  conduct  transactions.   Delays  in
settlement  could result in temporary  periods when assets may be  uninvested.
Settlement  problems in emerging  markets  countries also could cause the Fund
to miss attractive investment  opportunities.  Satisfactory custodial services
may not be available in some emerging markets  countries,  which may result in
the Fund's  incurring  additional costs and delays in the  transportation  and
custody of such securities.

       Each of the Growth  Fund,  Income  Equity  Fund,  Rotating  Index Fund,
Dividend Capture Fund,  International  Equity Fund, Mid Corp America Fund, New
Economy  Fund,  Fixed  Income  Securities  Fund and  Short/Intermediate  Fixed
Income  Securities  Fund may invest in foreign  securities.  Each of the Fixed
Income  Securities Fund and  Short/Intermediate  Fixed Income Securities Fund,
however,   may  only   invest  up  to  10%  of  its  net  assets  in  non-U.S.
dollar-denominated bonds.

Futures Contracts and Options on Futures Contracts

       A futures contract is a binding  contractual  commitment which, if held
to  maturity,  will result in an  obligation  to make or accept  delivery of a
security  at  a  specified  future  time  and  price.  By  purchasing  futures
(assuming a "long"  position) a Fund will  legally  obligate  itself to accept
the future  delivery of the underlying  security and pay the agreed price.  By
selling futures  (assuming a "short" position) it will legally obligate itself
to make the future  delivery  of the  security  against  payment of the agreed
price.  Open futures  positions on debt  securities will be valued at the most
recent  settlement  price,  unless that price does not in the  judgment of the
Trustees  reflect the fair value of the contract,  in which case the positions
will be valued by or under the direction of the Trustees.  Positions  taken in
the  futures  markets  are not  normally  held to  maturity,  but are  instead
liquidated through  offsetting  transactions which may result in a profit or a
loss.  While futures  positions  taken by a Fund will usually be liquidated in
this  manner,  a Fund may  instead  make or take  delivery  of the  underlying
securities  whenever it appears  economically  advantageous  to the Fund to do
so. A clearing  corporation  associated with the exchange on which futures are
traded assumes  responsibility  for such closing  transactions  and guarantees
that the Fund's sale and purchase  obligations under closed-out positions will
be performed at the termination of the contract.

       Hedging by use of futures on debt  securities  seeks to establish  more
certainly  than would  otherwise be possible the  effective  rate of return on
portfolio securities.  A Fund may, for example, take a "short" position in the
futures  market  by  selling   contracts  for  the  future  delivery  of  debt
securities held by the Fund (or securities having  characteristics  similar to
those  held by the  Fund) in order to hedge  against  an  anticipated  rise in
interest rates that would adversely  affect the value of the Fund's  portfolio
securities.  When hedging of this character is successful, any depreciation in
the value of portfolio  securities may be offset by  appreciation in the value
of the futures position.

       On other  occasions,  a Fund may take a "long"  position by  purchasing
futures on debt securities.  This would be done, for example,  when Huntington
expects  to  purchase  for a  Fund  particular  securities  when  it  has  the
necessary  cash,  but expects the rate of return  available in the  securities
markets at that time to be less  favorable than rates  currently  available in
the futures  markets.  If the anticipated  rise in the price of the securities
should occur (with its concomitant  reduction in yield), the increased cost to
the Fund of purchasing  the  securities may be offset by the rise in the value
of the futures  position taken in  anticipation  of the subsequent  securities
purchase.

       Successful  use by a Fund of futures  contracts on debt  securities  is
subject  to  Huntington's  ability  to  predict  correctly  movements  in  the
direction  of  interest  rates and other  factors  affecting  markets for debt
securities.  For example,  if a Fund has hedged against the  possibility of an
increase in interest rates which would  adversely  affect the market prices of
debt  securities  held  by it and  the  prices  of  such  securities  increase
instead,  the Fund will lose part or all of the benefit of the increased value
of its securities  which it has hedged because it will have offsetting  losses
in its futures  positions.  In addition,  in such situations,  if the Fund has
insufficient  cash,  it may  have to sell  securities  to  meet  daily  margin
maintenance  requirements.  A Fund may have to sell  securities at a time when
it may be disadvantageous to do so.

       A Fund may  purchase  and write put and call  options  on debt  futures
contracts,  as they become  available.  Such options are similar to options on
securities  except that options on futures  contracts  give the  purchaser the
right,  in return for the  premium  paid,  to assume a  position  in a 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.  As with  options  on  securities,  the holder or writer of an
option may  terminate  its position by selling or  purchasing an option of the
same series.  There is no  guarantee  that such  closing  transactions  can be
effected.  A Fund will be required  to deposit  initial  margin and  variation
margin with  respect to put and call options on futures  contracts  written by
it pursuant to brokers'  requirements,  and, in addition,  net option premiums
received will be included as initial margin  deposits.  See "Margin  Payments"
below. Compared to the purchase or sale of futures contracts,  the purchase of
call or put options on futures  contracts  involves less  potential  risk to a
Fund  because the maximum  amount at risk is the premium  paid for the options
plus  transactions  costs.  However,  there  may  be  circumstances  when  the
purchases of call or put options on a futures  contract would result in a loss
to a Fund when the purchase or sale of the futures  contracts  would not, such
as when there is no movement in the prices of debt securities.  The writing of
a put or call option on a futures  contract  involves  risks  similar to those
risks relating to the purchase or sale of futures contracts.

       Margin payments.  When a 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 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 a Fund sells a
futures  contract and the price of the  underlying  debt security  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 market price of the securities
underlying the futures  contract.  Conversely,  if the price of the underlying
security  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  market  price  of the  securities  underlying  the  futures
contract.

       When a 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.

       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 Trust  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,  a 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.

       In addition to the risks that apply to all options transactions,  there
are  several  special  risks  relating  to options on futures  contracts.  The
ability to establish  and close out  positions in such options will be subject
to the  development and maintenance of a liquid  secondary  market.  It is not
certain  that such a market  will  develop.  Although  a 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 a
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  prices  of
securities  which are the  subject of the  hedge.  Huntington  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 portfolio securities sought to be hedged.

       Successful  use of futures  contracts and options by a Fund for hedging
purposes  is  also  subject  to  Huntington's  ability  to  predict  correctly
movements in the direction of the market.  It is possible  that,  where a 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 Huntington
may still not result in a  successful  hedging  transaction  over a very short
time period.

       Other risks.  Funds 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 a 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.

Index - Based Investments

       Index-Based  Investments,  such as  Standard  &  Poor's  Depository
Receipts  ("SPDRs"),  NASDAQ-100 Index Tracking Stock ("NASDAQ  100s"),  World
Equity  Benchmark Shares ("WEBS"),  and Dow Jones DIAMONDS  ("Diamonds"),  are
interests in a unit  investment  trust  ("UIT") that may be obtained  from the
UIT or purchased in the secondary market.  SPDRs, NASDAQ 100s and DIAMONDS are
listed on the American Stock Exchange.

       A UIT will generally issue  Index-Based  Investments in aggregations of
50,000  known as  "Creation  Units"  in  exchange  for a  "Portfolio  Deposit"
consisting  of (a) a  portfolio  of  securities  substantially  similar to the
component  securities  ("Index  Securities")  of  the  applicable  index  (the
"Index"),  (b) a cash  payment  equal to a pro rata  portion of the  dividends
accrued on the UIT's portfolio  securities  since the last dividend payment by
the UIT,  net of expenses  and  liabilities,  and (c) a cash payment or credit
("Balancing  Amount")  designed to  equalize  the net asset value of the Index
and the net asset value of a Portfolio Deposit.

       Index-Based  Investments are not individually  redeemable,  except upon
termination  of the UIT.  To redeem,  the  portfolio  must  accumulate  enough
Index-Based  Investments to  reconstitute a Creation Unit (large  aggregations
of a particular  Index-Based  Investment).  The liquidity of small holdings of
Index-Based  Investments,  therefore,  will  depend  upon the  existence  of a
secondary  market.  Upon  redemption of a Creation  Unit,  the portfolio  will
receive Index Securities and cash identical to the Portfolio  Deposit required
of an investor wishing to purchase a Creation Unit that day.

       The price of  Index-Based  Investments  is  derived  and based upon the
securities  held by the UIT.  Accordingly,  the level of risk  involved in the
purchase or sale of  Index-Based  Investments  is similar to the risk involved
in the purchase or sale of traditional  common stock,  with the exception that
the pricing  mechanism  for  Index-Based  Investments  is based on a basket of
stocks.  Disruptions in the markets for the securities underlying  Index-Based
Investments  purchased  or sold by the  Portfolio  could  result  in losses on
Index-Based  Investments.  Trading in Index-Based  Investments  involves risks
similar to those  risks,  described  above  under  "Options,"  involved in the
writing of options on securities.


Index Futures Contracts and Options on Index Futures Contracts

<R>

       A debt index  futures  contract is a contract to buy or sell units of a
specified  debt index at a specified  future date at a price  agreed upon when
the contract is made. A unit is the current value of the index.  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 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 a 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). A Fund may purchase or sell futures  contracts  with
respect to any stock index.  Positions in index futures may be closed out only
on an exchange or board of trade  which  provides a secondary  market for such
futures.

       Purchases  and  sales  of  index  futures  may  be  used  to  hedge  an
investment.  To hedge an investment successfully,  however, a Fund must invest
in futures  contracts with respect to indices or sub-indices  the movements of
which will have a significant  correlation with movements in the prices of the
Fund's securities.

       Options  on  index   futures   contracts  are  similar  to  options  on
securities  except that 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
assumes the  underlying  futures  position  and  receives 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 is 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  call and put options on index futures
contracts,  a Fund may purchase put and call options on the underlying indices
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,  and the
writer  undertakes the obligation to sell, 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."  A Fund will enter into an option  position only if there appears
to be a liquid secondary market for such options.

       The Funds will not engage in  transactions  in options on stock indices
for speculative purposes but only to protect appreciation  attained, to offset
capital losses and to take advantage of the liquidity  available in the option
markets.  The aggregate  premium paid on all options on stock indices will not
exceed 20% of a Fund's total assets.

       All of the Funds may utilize index futures or options on index futures.

Interests in Other Limited Liability Companies

       The  International  Equity Fund may invest in entities  such as limited
partnerships,  limited  liability  companies,  business  trusts and  companies
organized  outside the United States which may issue securities  comparable to
common or preferred stock.

Interest Rate Risk

       Interest  rate  risk is the risk that  changes  in  interest  rates may
cause a decline in the  market  value of an  investment.  With bonds and other
fixed income  securities,  a rise in interest rates typically causes a fall in
bond values,  while a fall in interest rates  typically  causes a rise in bond
values.  Fixed income  securities with longer  maturities are more susceptible
to changes in value due to interest  rate  changes than are those with shorter
maturities.

       Recent market  experience  has shown that certain  derivative  mortgage
securities  have a higher degree of interest  rate risk and, as a result,  the
prices of such securities may be highly volatile.  In addition,  recent market
experience has shown that during periods of rising interest rates,  the market
for certain derivative  mortgage  securities may become more unstable and such
securities  may become more  difficult to sell as market  makers either choose
not to repurchase  such  securities or offer prices which are  unacceptable to
the Adviser based on market conditions.

Lending Portfolio Securities

       In order to generate  additional income, each of the Funds may lend its
portfolio  securities  on a short-term  basis to certain  brokers,  dealers or
other  financial  institutions  selected  by  Huntington  and  approved by the
Trustees.  In determining  whether to lend to a particular  broker,  dealer or
financial  institution,  Huntington  will  consider  all  relevant  facts  and
circumstances,  including  the size,  creditworthiness  and  reputation of the
borrower.  Consistent with SEC guidelines, any loans made will be continuously
secured  by  collateral  in  cash,  U.S.   government   obligations  or  other
high-quality  debt  obligations  at least  equal  to 100% of the  value of the
securities on loan. As a matter of fundamental  policy, the aggregate value of
all  securities  loaned by a Fund,  except the Rotating  Index Fund,  Dividend
Capture  Fund,  International  Equity  Fund,  Mid  Corp  America  Fund and New
Economy Fund,  may not exceed 20% of the Fund's total  assets.  As a matter of
non-fundamental  policy,  the  Rotating  Index Fund,  Dividend  Capture  Fund,
International  Equity  Fund,  Mid Corp  America  Fund and New Economy Fund may
each lend portfolio  securities in an amount representing up to 33 1/3% of the
value of their total assets.

       While  portfolio  securities  are on loan, the borrower will pay to the
lending  Fund  any  dividends  or  interest  received  on the  securities.  In
addition,  the Fund  retains  all or a portion  of the  interest  received  on
investment of the  collateral  or receives a fee from the  borrower.  Although
voting  rights,  or rights to consent,  with respect to the loaned  securities
pass to the borrower,  the lending Fund retains the right to call the loans at
any time on reasonable  notice, and it will do so to enable a Fund to exercise
voting rights on any matters materially  affecting the investment.  A Fund may
also call such loans in order to sell the securities.

       One of the  risks  in  lending  portfolio  securities,  as  with  other
extensions of credit,  is the possible  delay in recovery of the securities or
possible  loss  of  rights  in  the   collateral   should  the  borrower  fail
financially.  There is also the risk that, when lending portfolio  securities,
the  securities  may not be  available  to a Fund on a timely basis and a Fund
may,  therefore,  lose the  opportunity  to sell the securities at a desirable
price. In addition,  in the event that a borrower of securities would file for
bankruptcy or become  insolvent,  disposition of the securities may be delayed
pending court action.

Liquidity Risk

       Certain  securities  may be difficult or impossible to sell at the time
and price that a Fund  would  like.  A Fund may have to accept a lower  price,
sell other  securities  or forego an  investment  opportunity,  and this could
have a  negative  effect on  performance.  This  risk  applies  to  restricted
securities,  Rule 144A Securities certain over-the-counter options, securities
not traded in the U.S.  markets  and other  securities  that may trade in U.S.
markets but are not registered under the federal securities laws.

Market Risk

       Market  risk is the risk that the value of a  security  will move up or
down,  sometimes  rapidly and  unpredictably.  These  fluctuations,  which are
often referred to as "volatility,"  may cause a security to be worth less than
it was worth at an  earlier  time.  Market  risk may  affect a single  issuer,
industry  or sector of the  economy or the market as a whole.  Market  risk is
common to most  investments,  including stocks and bonds, and the mutual funds
that  invest in them.  Bonds  and  other  fixed  income  securities  generally
involve  less  market  risk  than  stocks.  The risks of  investing  in bonds,
however,  can vary  significantly  depending  upon  factors such as issuer and
maturity.  The  bonds of some  companies  may be  riskier  than the  stocks of
others.



Money Market Instruments

       Except  where  otherwise  noted,  all of the Funds may,  for  temporary
defensive  or liquidity  purposes,  invest up to 100% of their assets in money
market instruments.

       Commercial Paper and Variable Amount Master Demand Notes

            Consistent   with  its   investment   objective,   policies,   and
       restrictions,  each Fund may  invest  in  commercial  paper  (including
       Section  4(2)  commercial  paper) and  variable  amount  master  demand
       notes.  Commercial paper consists of unsecured  promissory notes issued
       by  corporations  normally  having  maturities  of 270 days or less and
       rates  of  return  which  are  fixed.  These  investments  may  include
       Canadian Commercial Paper, which is U.S. dollar denominated  commercial
       paper issued by a Canadian  corporation or a Canadian  counterpart of a
       U.S.  corporation,  and  Europaper,  which is U.S.  dollar  denominated
       commercial paper of a foreign issuer.

            Variable  amount master  demand notes are  unsecured  demand notes
       that  permit  the  indebtedness  thereunder  to vary  and  provide  for
       periodic  adjustments  in the interest  rate  according to the terms of
       the  instrument.   Because  master  demand  notes  are  direct  lending
       arrangements  between  a Fund and the  issuer,  they  are not  normally
       traded.  Although there is no secondary market in the notes, a Fund may
       demand  payment  of  principal  and  accrued  interest  at any time.  A
       variable  amount  master  demand note will be deemed to have a maturity
       equal to the  longer  of the  period of time  remaining  until the next
       readjustment  of its  interest  rate or the  period  of time  remaining
       until the  principal  amount can be recovered  from the issuer  through
       demand.

            The  commercial  paper in which any of the Money  Market Funds may
       invest  is   subject  to  the  issuer   diversification   and   quality
       restrictions  imposed by Rule 2a-7 under the 1940 Act.  The  commercial
       paper in which the  Mortgage  Securities  Fund may invest  must be: (i)
       rated A-1 or better by Standard &  Poor's Ratings Group ("S&P")
       or P-1 or better by Moody's Investors  Service,  Inc.  ("Moody's");  or
       (ii)  unrated,  but issued by companies  with  outstanding  debt issues
       rated AAA by S&P or Aaa by Moody's.

       Bank Obligations

       Bank obligations are short-term  obligations issued by U.S. and foreign
banks, including bankers' acceptances,  certificates of deposit, time deposits
and similar securities.

            Bankers'  acceptances  are negotiable  drafts or bills of exchange
       typically  drawn  by an  importer  or  exporter  to  pay  for  specific
       merchandise  that are "accepted" by a bank,  meaning,  in effect,  that
       the  bank  unconditionally   agrees  to  pay  the  face  value  of  the
       instrument on maturity.  Investments  in bankers'  acceptances  will be
       limited to those  guaranteed by domestic and foreign  banks having,  at
       the time of  investment,  total assets of $1 billion or more (as of the
       date  of  the   institution's   most   recently   published   financial
       statements).

            Certificates   of  deposit  and  time  deposits   represent  funds
       deposited in a commercial bank or a savings and loan  association for a
       definite period of time and earning a specified return.

            Investments  in  certificates  of deposit  and time  deposits  may
       include  Eurodollar  Certificates  of  Deposit,  which are U.S.  dollar
       denominated  certificates  of deposit  issued by offices of foreign and
       domestic banks located outside the United States,  Yankee  Certificates
       of Deposit,  which are  certificates of deposit issued by a U.S. branch
       of a foreign bank  denominated  in U.S.  dollars and held in the United
       States,  Eurodollar  Time  Deposits  ("ETDs"),  which  are U.S.  dollar
       denominated  deposits in a foreign  branch of a U.S.  bank or a foreign
       bank,  and  Canadian  Time  Deposits  ("CTDs"),  which are U.S.  dollar
       denominated  certificates  of  deposit  issued by  Canadian  offices of
       major Canadian  banks.  All  investments in certificates of deposit and
       time  deposits  will be limited to those (a) of  domestic  and  foreign
       banks  and  savings  and  loan  associations  which,  at  the  time  of
       investment,  have total assets of $1 billion or more (as of the date of
       the institution's most recently published financial  statements) or (b)
       the  principal  amount  of  which is  insured  by the  Federal  Deposit
       Insurance Corporation.

            The Money  Market  Fund,  Ohio  Municipal  Money  Market  Fund and
       Florida Tax-Free Money Fund may only invest in bank obligations  issued
       by domestic  banks and U.S.  branches of foreign  banks subject to U.S.
       banking  regulation.  In addition,  at the time of the investment,  the
       issuing  bank must have  capital,  surplus  and  undivided  profits  in
       excess  of $100  million.  Issuing  banks of  obligations  in which the
       Mortgage  Securities  Fund  invests  must  have  capital,  surplus  and
       undivided profits in excess of $1 billion.

            The  Michigan  Tax-Free  Fund  is  limited  to  investing  only in
       dollar-denominated   obligations  of:  (i)  U.S.,  Canadian,  Asian  or
       European  banks with at least $500  million  in total  assets;  or (ii)
       U.S.  savings and loan  associations  with at least $1 billion in total
       assets.

       Variable Rate Demand Notes

            Variable  rate  demand  notes  ("VRDNs")  are  unsecured,   direct
       lending  arrangements between a Fund, as the lender, and a corporation,
       financial institution, government agency, municipality or other entity.

            VRDNs have  interest  rates which  float or which are  adjusted at
       regular  intervals  ranging from daily to annually.  Although the VRDNs
       are not generally  traded,  a Fund may demand  payment of principal and
       accrued  interest  according  to  its  arrangement  with  the  borrower
       (usually upon no more than seven days' notice).  VRDNs are,  therefore,
       treated as maturing  on the later of the next  interest  adjustment  or
       the date on  which a Fund  may next  demand  payment.  Some  VRDNs  are
       backed by bank letters of credit.

            Each of the  Funds  may only  invest in VRDNs  which  satisfy  its
            credit requirements for commercial paper.

       Other  instruments may include:  obligations  (certificates of deposit,
time  deposits,  bank  master  notes,  and  bankers'  acceptances)  of  thrift
institutions,  and savings and loans,  provided  that such  institutions  have
total assets of $1 billion or more as shown on heir last  published  financial
statements at the time of investment;  short-term corporate  obligations rated
within the three highest  rating  categories by an NRSRO (e.g.,  at least A by
S&P  or A by  Moody's)  at the  time  of  investment,  or,  if not  rated,
determined by the Adviser to be of  comparable  quality;  general  obligations
issued by the U.S.  Government  and backed by its full faith and  credit,  and
obligations  issued or  guaranteed as to principal and interest by agencies or
instrumentalities of the U.S. Government (e.g.,  obligations issued by Farmers
Home Administration,  Government National Mortgage  Association,  Federal Farm
Credit Bank and Federal  Housing  Administration);  receipts,  including  TRs,
TIGRs  and CATS;  repurchase  agreements  involving  such  obligations;  money
market funds, and foreign commercial paper.

Money Market Mutual Funds

<R>

       Except under limited  circumstances  or pursuant to an exemptive relief
from the Securities and Exchange  Commission,  a Fund may not invest more than
10% of its total  assets at any one time in the shares of other  funds,  5% of
its total assets in the shares of any one mutual fund,  or more than 3% of the
shares of any one fund.  When a Fund  invests  in the  shares of other  mutual
funds,  investment  advisory and other fees will apply,  and the  investment's
yield will be reduced accordingly.

       Pursuant to an exemptive order, dated July 24, 2001,  received from the
SEC,  each of the Growth  Fund,  the Income  Equity Fund,  the Rotating  Index
Fund, the Dividend Capture Fund, the  International  Equity Fund, the Mid Corp
America Fund,  the New Economy  Fund,  (collectively  the "Equity  Funds") the
Mortgage   Securities   Fund,   the  Fixed   Income   Securities   Fund,   the
Short/Intermediate  Fixed Income  Securities  Fund  (collectively  the "Income
Funds"),  may invest up to 25% of their  respective  total assets in Interfund
shares of the  Huntington  Money  Market  Fund.  The  Rotating  Index Fund may
invest all of its assets in shares of any one-investment company.

Mortgage-related Securities

       Mortgage-related   securities   are   securities   that,   directly  or
indirectly,  represent  participations in, or are secured by and payable from,
loans secured by real property.  Mortgage-related  securities include mortgage
pass-through  securities,  adjustable rate mortgage  securities and derivative
securities   such  as   collateralized   mortgage   obligations  and  stripped
mortgage-backed  securities.   Mortgage-related  securities  fall  into  three
categories:  (a) those issued or guaranteed  by the U.S.  Government or one of
its  agencies  or  instrumentalities,  such as  Government  National  Mortgage
Association  ("GNMA"),  Federal  National  Mortgage  Association  ("FNMA") and
Federal  Home  Loan  Mortgage  Corporation  ("FHLMC");  (b)  those  issued  by
non-governmental  issuers that represent  interests in, or are  collateralized
by,  mortgage-related  securities issued or guaranteed by the U.S.  Government
or  one of  its  agencies  or  instrumentalities;  and  (c)  those  issued  by
non-governmental  issuers that represent an interest in, or are collateralized
by, whole mortgage loans or  mortgage-related  securities without a government
guarantee  but  usually  with  over-collateralization  or some  other  form of
private credit  enhancement.  Non-governmental  issuers include originators of
investors  in  mortgage  loans,   including  savings  and  loan  associations,
mortgage  bankers,  commercial  banks,  investment  banks and special  purpose
subsidiaries of the foregoing.

       There are a number of  important  differences  both among the  agencies
and  instrumentalities  of the U.S.  Government  that  issue  mortgage-related
securities  and among the  securities  themselves.  Ginnie  Maes are  Mortgage
Pass-Through  Certificates  issued  by  GNMA,  which  is a  wholly-owned  U.S.
Government   corporation   within  the   Department   of  Housing   and  Urban
Development.  Ginnie Maes are guaranteed as to the timely payment of principal
and  interest  by GNMA and  GNMA's  guarantee  is backed by the full faith and
credit of the U.S.  Treasury.  In addition,  Ginnie Maes are  supported by the
authority  of GNMA to borrow  funds from the U.S.  Treasury  to make  payments
under  GNMA's  guarantee.  Mortgage-related  securities  issued by the Federal
National  Mortgage  Association  ("FNMA")  include  FNMA  Guaranteed  Mortgage
Pass-Through  Certificates  (also known as "Fannie Maes") which are solely the
obligations  of the  FNMA.  The  FNMA is a  government-sponsored  organization
owned  entirely  by private  stockholders.  Fannie Maes are  guaranteed  as to
timely  payment of  principal  and  interest  by FNMA but are not backed by or
entitled to the full faith and credit of the U.S.  Treasury.  Mortgage-related
securities  issued by the Federal  Home Loan  Mortgage  Corporation  ("FHLMC")
include  FHLMC  Mortgage  Participation  Certificates  (also known as "Freddie
Macs"  or  "PCS").  The  FHLMC  is a  corporate  instrumentality  of the  U.S.
Government,  created  pursuant to an Act of Congress,  which is owned entirely
by  Federal  Home Loan  Banks.  Freddie  Macs are not  guaranteed  by the U.S.
Treasury  or by any  Federal  Home Loan Bank and do not  constitute  a debt or
obligation of the U.S.  Government  or of any Federal Home Loan Bank.  Freddie
Macs entitle the holder to timely payment of interest,  which is guaranteed by
the FHLMC. The FHLMC guarantees  either ultimate  collection or timely payment
of all principal  payments on the underlying  mortgage  loans.  When the FHLMC
does not guarantee  timely  payment of  principal,  FHLMC may remit the amount
due on account of its  guarantee of ultimate  payment of principal at any time
after default on an underlying  mortgage,  but in no event later than one year
after it becomes payable.

       Although certain mortgage-related  securities are guaranteed by a third
party or otherwise similarly secured, the market value of the security,  which
may  fluctuate,  is not so secured.  If a Fund  purchases  a  mortgage-related
security at a premium,  that  portion may be lost if there is a decline in the
market value of the security whether  resulting from changes in interest rates
or  prepayments  in  the  underlying  mortgage   collateral.   As  with  other
interest-bearing  securities,  the prices of  mortgage-related  securities are
inversely affected by changes in interest rates. However,  though the value of
a  mortgage-related  security  may  decline  when  interest  rates  rise,  the
converse  is not  necessarily  true,  since in periods of  declining  interest
rates the mortgages underlying the security are prone to prepayment.  For this
and other reasons,  a  mortgage-related  security's  effective maturity may be
shortened  by  unscheduled   prepayments  on  the  underlying  mortgages  and,
therefore,  it is not possible to predict  accurately the security's return to
the  Fund.   In   addition,   regular   payments   received   in   respect  of
mortgage-related  securities include both interest and principal. No assurance
can be given as to the  return a Fund will  receive  when  these  amounts  are
reinvested.

       The  Mortgage   Securities   Fund,   Fixed  Income   Securities   Fund,
Intermediate  Government  Income  Fund  and  Short/Intermediate  Fixed  Income
Securities Fund may invest in  mortgage-related  securities issued by the U.S.
government,  its agencies or  instrumentalities,  and the derivative  mortgage
securities  described  above.  In addition,  the Mortgage  Securities Fund may
invest in mortgage-related securities issued by private entities.

       Mortgage Pass-through Securities
            Mortgage  pass-through  securities provide for the pass-through to
       investors of their  pro-rata share of monthly  payments  (including any
       prepayments)  made by the individual  borrowers on the pooled  mortgage
       loans,  net of any fees paid to the  guarantor of such  securities  and
       the servicer of the underlying mortgage loans.

       Adjustable Rate Mortgage Securities
            Adjustable  rate  mortgage  securities  ("ARMS") are  pass-through
       mortgage  securities  collateralized  by mortgages  with interest rates
       that are  adjusted  from  time to time.  The  adjustments  usually  are
       determined in accordance with a  predetermined  interest rate index and
       may be subject to certain limits.  While the values of ARMS, like other
       debt  securities,  generally  vary  inversely  with  changes  in market
       interest  rates  (increasing  in  value  during  periods  of  declining
       interest  rates and  decreasing  in value during  periods of increasing
       interest rates),  the values of ARMS should generally be more resistant
       to price swings than other debt  securities  because the interest rates
       of ARMS move with market  interest  rates.  The adjustable rate feature
       of ARMS will not,  however,  eliminate  fluctuations  in the  prices of
       ARMS,  particularly during periods of extreme  fluctuations in interest
       rates.  Also,  since many  adjustable  rate  mortgages only reset on an
       annual  basis,  it can  be  expected  that  the  prices  of  ARMS  will
       fluctuate to the extent that changes in prevailing  interest  rates are
       not  immediately  reflected  in  the  interest  rates  payable  on  the
       underlying adjustable rate mortgages.

            ARMS  typically  have caps which limit the maximum amount by which
       the interest  rate may be increased or decreased at periodic  intervals
       or over  the  life of the  loan.  To the  extent  that  interest  rates
       increase  in excess of the caps,  ARMS can be  expected  to behave more
       like  traditional  debt securities and to decline in value to a greater
       extent than would be the case in the absence of such caps.  Also, since
       many  adjustable  rate mortgages only reset on an annual basis,  it can
       be expected  that the prices of ARMS will  fluctuate to the extent that
       changes in prevailing  interest rates are not immediately  reflected in
       the  interest   rates  payable  on  the  underlying   adjustable   rate
       mortgages.  The  extent to which  the  prices  of ARMS  fluctuate  with
       changes  in  interest  rates  will  also  be  affected  by the  indices
       underlying  the  ARMS.  Some  indices,  such as the  one-year  constant
       maturity Treasury note rate,  closely mirror changes in market interest
       rate levels.  Others, such as the 11th District Federal Reserve Cost of
       Funds  Index  (often  related  to ARMS  issued  by  FNMA),  tend to lag
       changes in market levels and tend to be somewhat less volatile.

       Derivative Mortgage Securities

            Collateralized   mortgage   obligations  are  derivative  mortgage
       securities and are debt instruments  issued by special purpose entities
       which are secured by pools of mortgage loans or other  mortgage-related
       securities.  Multi-class  pass-through  securities are equity interests
       in a  trust  composed  of  mortgage  loans  or  other  mortgage-related
       securities.  Both are considered derivative mortgage securities and are
       collectively  referred to as "CMOs." Payments of principal and interest
       on underlying  collateral  provide the funds to pay debt service on the
       collateralized  mortgage obligation or make scheduled  distributions on
       the multi-class pass-through security.

            In a CMO, a series of bonds or  certificates is issued in multiple
       classes.  Each  class of CMO,  often  referred  to as a  "tranche,"  is
       issued at a specific  coupon  rate and has a stated  maturity  or final
       distribution  date.  Principal  prepayments on collateral  underlying a
       CMO may cause it to be retired  substantially  earlier  than the stated
       maturities or final distribution dates.

            The  principal  and interest on the  underlying  mortgages  may be
       allocated  among  the  several  tranches  of a CMO in  many  ways.  For
       example,  certain tranches may have variable or floating interest rates
       and others may provide only the  principal  or interest  feature of the
       underlying  security.  Generally,  the purpose of the allocation of the
       cash  flow  of a CMO  to  the  various  tranches  is to  obtain  a more
       predictable  cash  flow to  certain  of the  individual  tranches  than
       exists with the  underlying  collateral  of the CMO. As a general rule,
       the more  predictable the cash flow is on a CMO tranche,  the lower the
       anticipated  yield  will be on that  tranche  at the  time of  issuance
       relative to prevailing  market yields on  mortgage-related  securities.
       As part of the process of creating more  predictable cash flows on most
       of the  tranches  of a CMO,  one or  more  tranches  generally  must be
       created  that  absorb most of the  volatility  in the cash flows on the
       underlying  mortgage  loans.  The yields on these  tranches,  which may
       include inverse floaters,  stripped mortgage-backed  securities,  and Z
       tranches,  discussed below, are generally higher than prevailing market
       yields on  mortgage-related  securities with similar  maturities.  As a
       result of the  uncertainty  of the cash  flows of these  tranches,  the
       market  prices  of and  yield  on  these  tranches  generally  are more
       volatile.

            An inverse  floater is a CMO tranche with a coupon rate that moves
       inversely  to a  designated  index,  such as LIBOR  (London  Inter-Bank
       Offered  Rate) or COFI (Cost of Funds  Index).  Like most  other  fixed
       income  securities,  the value of inverse  floaters  will  decrease  as
       interest rates increase.  Inverse  floaters,  however,  exhibit greater
       price   volatility   than  the  majority  of  mortgage   pass-  through
       securities or CMOs.  Coupon rates on inverse floaters  typically change
       at a multiple of the change in the relevant index rate.  Thus, any rise
       in the index rate (as a consequence  of an increase in interest  rates)
       causes a correspondingly  greater drop in the coupon rate of an inverse
       floater  while  any drop in the  index  rate  causes a  correspondingly
       greater  increase  in the coupon of an inverse  floater.  Some  inverse
       floaters also exhibit  extreme  sensitivity to changes in  prepayments.
       Inverse  floaters would be purchased by a Fund in an attempt to protect
       against a reduction in the income earned on the Fund's  investments due
       to a decline in interest rates.

            Z tranches of CMOs defer  interest and  principal  payments  until
       one or more other  classes of the CMO have been paid in full.  Interest
       accretes on the Z tranche, being added to principal,  and is compounded
       through the  accretion  period.  After the other classes have been paid
       in full,  interest  payments  begin and continue  through  maturity.  Z
       tranches  have  characteristics  similar to zero coupon  bonds.  Like a
       zero  coupon  bond,  during its  accretion  period a Z tranche  has the
       advantage of eliminating the risk of reinvesting  interest  payments at
       lower rates during a period of declining  market interest rates. At the
       same time, however,  and also like a zero coupon bond, the market value
       of a Z tranche can be expected to  fluctuate  more widely with  changes
       in market  interest  rates  than  would the  market  value of a tranche
       which pays  interest  currently.  In  addition,  changes in  prepayment
       rates on the  underlying  mortgage  loans  will  affect  the  accretion
       period of a Z tranche,  and  therefore  also will  influence its market
       value.

            The  Mortgage  Securities  Fund will invest only in CMOs which are
       issued by agencies or  instrumentalities of the U.S. government or CMOs
       issued by private organizations which are rated AAA by an NRSRO.

            Stripped  mortgage-backed  securities  ("SMBSs")  may represent an
       interest  solely in the principal  repayments or solely in the interest
       payments  on   mortgage-backed   securities).   SMBSs  are   derivative
       multi-class  securities.  SMBSs are usually structured with two classes
       and  receive  different  proportions  of  the  interest  and  principal
       distributions  on the pool of  underlying  mortgage-backed  securities.
       Due to the  possibility of  prepayments  on the  underlying  mortgages,
       SMBSs  may  be  more  interest-rate  sensitive  than  other  securities
       purchased.  If prevailing  interest rates fall below the level at which
       SMBSs  were  issued,  there  may  be  substantial  prepayments  on  the
       underlying  mortgages,  leading to the relatively early  prepayments of
       principal-only   SMBSs  (the   principal-only  or  "PO"  class)  and  a
       reduction  in the amount of payments  made to holders of  interest-only
       SMBSs  (the  interest-only  or "IO"  class).  Therefore,  interest-only
       SMBSs  generally  increase in value as interest rates rise and decrease
       in  value  as  interest  rates  fall,   counter  to  changes  in  value
       experienced  by  most  fixed  income  securities.   If  the  underlying
       mortgages experience slower than anticipated  prepayments of principal,
       the yield on a PO class will be affected  more  severely  than would be
       the case with a  traditional  mortgage-related  security.  Because  the
       yield to maturity of an IO class is extremely  sensitive to the rate of
       principal  payments  (including  prepayments) on the related underlying
       mortgage-backed  securities,  it is  possible  that  a Fund  might  not
       recover its original  investment  on  interest-only  SMBSs if there are
       substantial   prepayments  on  the  underlying   mortgages.   A  Fund's
       inability  to fully  recoup its  investment  in these  securities  as a
       result of a rapid rate of principal  prepayments  may occur even if the
       securities are rated AAA by an NRSRO. In view of these  considerations,
       Huntington intends to use these  characteristics of interest-only SMBSs
       to reduce  the  effects  of  interest  rate  changes  on the value of a
       Fund's portfolio, while continuing to pursue current income.

Options

       A call  option  gives the  purchaser  of the  option the right to buy a
security  at a stated  price from the writer  (seller)  of the  option.  A put
option  gives the  purchaser  of the option the right to sell a security  at a
stated price to the writer of the option.  In a covered  call  option,  during
the option  period the writer  owns the  security  (or a  comparable  security
sufficient  to satisfy  securities  exchange  requirements)  which may be sold
pursuant to the option. In a covered put option,  the writer holds cash and/or
short-term  debt  instruments  sufficient  in an amount  equal to the exercise
price of the option.  In  addition,  a put or call  option will be  considered
covered  if and to the  extent  that some or all of the risk of the option has
been offset by another option.  A Fund may write  combinations of covered puts
and calls on the same underlying security.

       In general,  a Fund may write options in an attempt to increase returns
or purchase options for hedging purposes.

       The premium  received  from writing a put or call  option,  increases a
Fund's return on the underlying  security in the event that the option expires
unexercised or is closed out at a profit.  The amount of the premium reflects,
among  other  things,  the  relationship  between the  exercise  price and the
current  market  value  of the  underlying  security,  the  volatility  of the
underlying  security,  the amount of time remaining until expiration,  current
interest rates,  and the effect of supply and demand in the options market and
in the market for the underlying  security. A put option locks in the price at
which a Fund may  sell a  security  it  holds,  thus  hedging  against  market
declines  and a call option  locks in the price at which a Fund may purchase a
security,  thus hedging against inflation.  Such protection is provided during
the life of the put option  since the Fund,  as holder of the option,  is able
to sell the underlying  security at the option's  exercise price regardless of
any decline in the underlying security's market price.

       By writing a call option,  a Fund limits its opportunity to profit from
any  increase  in the  market  value  of the  underlying  security  above  the
exercise  price of the option but  continues  to bear the risk of a decline in
the value of the underlying security.  By writing a put option, a 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 substantially appreciates in value.

       A Fund  may  terminate  an  option  that it has  written  prior  to its
expiration  by  entering  into a  closing  purchase  transaction,  in which it
purchases  an  offsetting  option.  A Fund  realizes  a profit  or loss from a
closing  transaction  if the  cost of the  transaction  (option  premium  plus
transaction  costs) is less or more than the premium received from writing the
option.  Because  increases  in the market  price of a call  option  generally
reflect  increases in the market price of the security  underlying the option,
any loss resulting from a closing purchase  transaction may be offset in whole
or in part by unrealized  appreciation  of the underlying  security owned by a
Fund.

       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. By using put options in this manner
a  Fund  will  reduce  any  profit  it  might  otherwise  have  realized  from
appreciation  of the  underlying  security  by the  premium  paid  for the put
option and by transaction costs.

       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.

       Each of the Equity and Income  Funds may write or purchase put and call
options. All call options written must be covered.

       The successful  use of options  depends on the ability of Huntington to
forecast  interest rate and market movements.  For example,  if a Fund were to
write a call option based on  Huntington's  expectation  that the price of the
underlying security will fall, but the price rises instead,  the Fund could be
required  to sell the  security  upon  exercise  at a price  below the current
market  price.  Similarly,  if a Fund  were to  write a put  option  based  on
Huntington's  expectations  that the  price of the  underlying  security  will
rise, but the price falls instead,  the Fund could be required to purchase the
security upon exercise at a price higher than the current market price.

       When a Fund  purchases  an  option,  it runs the risk that it will lose
its entire  investment  in the option in a  relatively  short  period of time,
unless  the  Fund   exercises  the  option  or  enters  into  a  closing  sale
transaction  with respect to the option during the life of the option.  If the
price  of the  underlying  security  does  not rise (in the case of a call) or
fall (in the  case of a put) to an  extent  sufficient  to  cover  the  option
premium and transaction  costs, a Fund will lose part or all of its investment
in the option.  This  contrasts with an investment by a Fund in the underlying
security,  since the Fund will not lose any of its investment in such security
if the price does not change.

       The use of options  also  involves  the risk of  imperfect  correlation
between  movements  in  option  prices  and  movements  in  the  value  of the
underlying securities.

       The  effective  use of options  also  depends on the Fund's  ability to
terminate  option  positions at times when Huntington deems it desirable to do
so. Although a Fund will take an option  position only if Huntington  believes
there is a liquid secondary market for the option,  there is no assurance that
the Fund will be able to effect closing  transaction at any particular time or
at an acceptable price.

       The Funds  generally  expect that their  options  transactions  will be
conducted on recognized exchanges.  In certain instances,  however, a Fund may
purchase and sell options in the  over-the-counter  ("OTC") markets.  A Fund's
ability to  terminate  options in the OTC market may be more  limited than for
exchange-traded  options and may also involve the risk that securities dealers
participating in such  transactions  would be unable to meet their obligations
to a Fund. A Fund will,  however,  engage in OTC market transactions only when
appropriate  exchange-traded  transactions  are  unavailable  and when, in the
opinion of Huntington,  the pricing  mechanism and liquidity of the OTC market
is satisfactory and the  participants  are responsible  parties likely to meet
their contractual obligations.

       If a secondary trading market in options were to become unavailable,  a
Fund  could  no  longer  engage  in  closing  transactions.  Lack of  investor
interest  might  adversely  affect the liquidity of the market for  particular
options  or  series  of  options.  A  market  may  discontinue  trading  of  a
particular  option or options  generally.  In addition,  a market could become
temporarily  unavailable  if  unusual  events--such  as  volume  in  excess of
trading or clearing capability--were to interrupt its normal operations.

       A market  may at times  find it  necessary  to impose  restrictions  on
particular types of options transactions,  such as opening  transactions.  For
example, if an underlying  security ceases to meet  qualifications  imposed by
the market or the Options Clearing Corporation,  new series of options on that
security  will no longer be opened to replace  expiring  series,  and  opening
transactions in existing  series may be prohibited.  If an options market were
to  become  unavailable,  a Fund as a  holder  of an  option  would be able to
realize  profits or limit losses only by exercising the option,  and the Fund,
as option writer, would remain obligated under the option until expiration.

       Disruptions  in the  markets  for  the  securities  underlying  options
purchased or sold by a Fund could result in losses on the options.  If trading
is  interrupted  in an  underlying  security,  the  trading of options on that
security is  normally  halted as well.  As a result,  a Fund as  purchaser  or
writer of an option will be unable to close out its  positions  until  options
trading resumes,  and it may be faced with  considerable  losses if trading in
the security  reopens at a substantially  different  price.  In addition,  the
Options  Clearing  Corporation  or other options  markets may impose  exercise
restrictions.  If a  prohibition  on  exercise  is  imposed  at the time  when
trading in the option has also been  halted,  a Fund as a purchaser  or writer
of an  option  will  be  locked  into  its  position  until  one  of  the  two
restrictions  has been lifted.  If the Options  Clearing  Corporation  were to
determine  that  the  available  supply  of  an  underlying  security  appears
insufficient  to permit  delivery by the writers of all  outstanding  calls in
the event of  exercise,  it may  prohibit  indefinitely  the  exercise  of put
options by holders who would be unable to deliver the underlying  interest.  A
Fund, as holder of such a put option,  could lose its entire investment if the
prohibition  remained in effect until the put option's expiration and the Fund
was  unable  either to  acquire  the  underlying  security  or to sell the put
option in the market.

       Special risks are presented by internationally-traded  options. Because
of time differences  between the United States and various foreign  countries,
and because different  holidays are observed in different  countries,  foreign
options  markets  may be open for  trading  during  hours or on days when U.S.
markets are closed.  As a result,  option  premium may not reflect the current
prices of the underlying interest in the United States.

       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,  a 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 Huntington 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 a
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 Huntington  may be considered  such a group.  These
position  limits may restrict the Trust'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.

Preferred Stock

       Preferred  stock  is a type of  equity  security  which  represents  an
ownership  interest in a corporation  and the right to a portion of the assets
of the  corporation in the event of a  liquidation.  This right,  however,  is
subordinate to that of any creditors,  including holders of debt issued by the
corporation.  Owners of preferred stock  ordinarily do not have voting rights,
but are entitled to dividends at a specified rate.

       Each of the Equity Funds may invest in preferred stock.

Prepayment Risk

       Prepayment  risk results  because,  as interest rates fall,  homeowners
are more likely to refinance  their home  mortgages.  When home  mortgages are
refinanced,  the principal on  mortgage-related  securities  held is "prepaid"
earlier than expected.  A Fund which holds  mortgage-related  securities which
are prepaid must  reinvest the  unanticipated  principal  payments,  just at a
time when interest rates on new mortgage  investments are falling.  Prepayment
risk has two important  effects on a Fund:  (1) when  interest  rates fall and
additional  mortgage  prepayments  must be reinvested at lower interest rates,
income  will  be  reduced;  and  (2)  when  interest  rates  fall,  prices  on
mortgage-backed  securities may not rise as much as comparable  Treasury bonds
because  bond  market   investors  may  anticipate  an  increase  in  mortgage
prepayments and a likely decline in income.

       Recent market  experience  has shown that certain  derivative  mortgage
securities  have a higher  degree of  prepayment  risk and,  as a result,  the
prices of such securities may be highly volatile.

Real Estate Investment Trusts

       The  Dividend  Capture  Fund,  the  Mortgage  Securities  Fund  and the
International  Equity  Fund  may  invest  in  real  estate  investment  trusts
("REITs").  REITs are real estate  investment  trusts that lease,  operate and
finance  commercial  real  estate.  REITs are exempt  from  federal  corporate
income  tax if they  limit  their  operations  and  distribute  most of  their
income.  Such tax requirements limit a REIT's ability to respond to changes in
the commercial real estate market.

Repurchase Agreements

       Repurchase    agreements   are   agreements    through   which   banks,
broker-dealers  and other  financial  institutions  approved by the  Trustees,
sell securities  (usually U.S.  Government  securities) to a Fund and agree to
repurchase  those  securities at a specified  price and time (usually not more
than seven days from the original  sale).  The seller's  obligation to pay the
repurchase  price  is  secured  by the  securities  to be  repurchased.  These
securities  are  required  to  be  held  by  the  Fund,  its  custodian  or  a
third-party  custodian.  In order to protect the Fund's  interest,  collateral
securities  must  have a value of at  least  100% of the  resale  price at all
times. (The seller must provide  additional  collateral in the event that this
condition  is not met).  In  general,  the  Adviser  will  require  collateral
securities  to have a value of at least 102% of the  resale  price at the time
the  repurchase  agreement is made.  The  collateral  is marked to market on a
daily  basis,   thus  enabling  the  Adviser  to  determine  when  to  request
additional collateral from the seller.

       If a  seller  defaults  on its  repurchase  obligation,  a  Fund  could
realize a loss on the sale of the  underlying  securities  to the extent  that
the  proceeds  of the sale  (including  accrued  interest)  are less  than the
resale  price.  In addition,  even though the U.S.  Bankruptcy  Code  provides
protection to a Fund if the seller  becomes  bankrupt or  insolvent,  the Fund
may suffer losses in such event.

Reverse Repurchase Agreements

       Each Fund may borrow  funds for  temporary  purposes by  entering  into
reverse  repurchase  agreements,  provided such action is consistent  with the
Fund's  investment  objective and fundamental  investment  restrictions;  as a
matter of non fundamental  policy, each Fund intends to limit total borrowings
under  reverse  repurchase  agreements to no more than 10% of the value of its
total assets.  Pursuant to a reverse  repurchase  agreement,  a Fund will sell
portfolio   securities  to  financial   institutions   such  as  banks  or  to
broker-dealers,   and  agree  to  repurchase  the  securities  at  a  mutually
agreed-upon  date and price.  A Fund intends to enter into reverse  repurchase
agreements  only to avoid  otherwise  selling  securities  during  unfavorable
market  conditions  to meet  redemptions.  At the  time a Fund  enters  into a
reverse repurchase agreement,  it will place in a segregated custodial account
assets such as U.S. Government  securities or other liquid,  high-quality debt
securities  consistent  with the Fund's  investment  objective  having a value
equal to 100% of the repurchase price (including accrued  interest),  and will
subsequently  monitor  the  account  to  ensure  that an  equivalent  value is
maintained.  Reverse  repurchase  agreements  involve the risk that the market
value of the securities  sold by a Fund may decline below the price at which a
Fund is obligated to repurchase the securities.  Reverse repurchase agreements
are considered to be borrowings by a Fund under the 1940 Act.

Restricted and Illiquid Securities

       Restricted   securities  are  any  securities   which  are  subject  to
restriction  on resale under  federal  securities  law,  including  commercial
paper  issued in  reliance  on the  exemption  from  registration  afforded by
Section  4(2) of the  Securities  Act of  1933.  Illiquid  securities  are any
securities for which there is a limited trading market and may, therefore,  be
difficult to sell at market value.  Because restricted and illiquid securities
may be  difficult  to sell at an  acceptable  price,  they may be  subject  to
greater volatility and may result in a loss to a Fund.

       Section  4(2)  commercial  paper  is  generally  sold to  institutional
investors,  such as mutual funds, who agree that they are purchasing the paper
for  investment  purposes  and not  with a view to  public  distribution.  Any
resale  by the  purchaser  must  be in an  exempt  transaction.  Section  4(2)
commercial paper is normally resold to other  institutional  investors through
or with the  assistance of the issuer or investment  dealers who make a market
in  Section  4(2)  commercial  paper,  thus  providing  liquidity.  The  Trust
believes  that  Section  4(2)  commercial  paper and  possibly  certain  other
restricted  securities  which meet the criteria for liquidity  established  by
the Trustees are quite liquid. The Trust intends,  therefore,  with respect to
the Money Market Fund's  investments,  to treat these securities as liquid and
not subject to the investment  limitation  applicable to illiquid  securities.
In  addition,  because  Section  4(2)  commercial  paper is liquid,  the Trust
intends not to subject such paper to any  limitation  applicable to restricted
securities.

       Each  of  the  Funds  may  invest  in  illiquid  securities  (including
restricted securities,  repurchase agreements providing for settlement on more
than seven days'  notice and OTC  options).  Except for the  Florida  Tax-Free
Money Fund, the Intermediate  Government Income Fund, the Rotating Index Fund,
the  Dividend  Capture  Fund,  the  International  Equity  Fund,  the Mid Corp
America  Fund,  and the New Economy  Fund,  none of the Funds will invest more
than 10% of its total assets in such  securities.  The Florida  Tax-Free Money
Fund is limited to 10% of its net assets,  while the  Intermediate  Government
Income  Fund,  the  Rotating  Index  Fund,  the  Dividend  Capture  Fund,  the
International  Equity  Fund,  the Mid Corp America  Fund,  and the New Economy
Fund may each invest up to 15% of their total assets in illiquid securities.

Security-specific Risk

       Security-specific  risk is the  risk  that the  value  of a  particular
security  may or may not move in the same  direction as the market as a whole.
All Funds are subject to this type of risk.

Small Cap/Special Equity Situation Securities

       Certain  Funds may  invest in the  securities  of small  capitalization
companies  and  companies  in  special   equity   situations.   Companies  are
considered to have a small market  capitalization  if their  capitalization is
within  the range of those  companies  in the  S&P  600  Small Cap  Index.
Companies are considered to be experiencing  special equity situations if they
are experiencing  unusual and possibly  non-repetitive  developments,  such as
mergers;  acquisitions;  spin-offs;  liquidations;  reorganizations;  and  new
products,   technology  or  management.  These  companies  may  offer  greater
opportunities  for  capital   appreciation   than  larger,   more  established
companies,  but  investment  in such  companies  may involve  certain  special
risks.  These  risks may be due to the greater  business  risks of small size,
limited  markets and financial  resources,  narrow  product lines and frequent
lack of depth in  management.  The  securities  of such  companies  are  often
traded  in the  over-the-counter  market  and may  not be  traded  in  volumes
typical  on a national  securities  exchange.  Thus,  the  securities  of such
companies  may be less  liquid,  and subject to more abrupt or erratic  market
movements than securities of larger, more established growth companies.  Since
a  "special  equity  situation"  may  involve  a  significant  change  from  a
company's past  experiences,  the uncertainties in the appraisal of the future
value of the company's  equity  securities and the risk of a possible  decline
in the value of the Funds' investments are significant.

Tax-exempt Securities

       Tax-exempt  securities are debt  obligations  the interest on which is,
in the opinion of bond counsel for the issuing  governmental entity or agency,
excluded  from gross  income for  federal  income tax  purposes.  Examples  of
tax-exempt  securities  include fixed and floating or variable rate  municipal
obligations,  tax-exempt notes, participation, trust and partnership interests
in municipal  obligations,  tax-exempt  commercial paper, stand-by commitments
and private activity bonds.

       Tax-exempt  securities  are issued to obtain monies for various  public
purposes,  including  the  construction  of a wide range of public  facilities
such as bridges,  highways,  roads, schools,  water and sewer works, and other
utilities.  Other  public  purposes  for which  tax-exempt  securities  may be
issued  include  refunding  outstanding  obligations,   obtaining  monies  for
general  operating  expenses  and to lend to  other  public  institutions  and
facilities.  The two principal  classifications  of tax-exempt  securities are
general  obligation and limited  obligation (or revenue)  securities.  General
obligation  securities  are  obligations  involving  the  credit  of an issuer
possessing   taxing  power  and  are  payable   from  the   issuer's   general
unrestricted  revenues  and  not  from  any  particular  fund or  source.  The
characteristics  and methods of enforcement of general  obligation  securities
vary according to the law applicable to the particular issuer.

       Limited  obligation  securities  are  payable  only  from the  revenues
derived from a particular  facility or class or facilities  or, in some cases,
from the proceeds of a special excise or other specific  revenue  source,  and
generally  are not  payable  from the  unrestricted  revenues  of the  issuer.
Private  activity  bonds  generally  are limited  obligation  securities,  the
credit and quality of which are usually  directly related to the credit of the
private user of the facilities.  Payment of principal of and interest on these
bonds is the responsibility of the private user (and any guarantor).

       Tax-exempt notes and tax-exempt  commercial paper are generally used to
provide for  short-term  capital  needs,  seasonal  working  capital  needs of
municipalities  or to provide interim  construction  financing,  and generally
have   maturities  of  one  year  or  less.   Tax-exempt   notes  include  tax
anticipation  notes  ("TANs"),  revenue  anticipation  notes ("RANs") and bond
anticipation notes ("BANs").  TANs are issued to finance working capital needs
of  municipalities.  Generally,  they are  issued in  anticipation  of various
seasonal tax revenues,  such as income, sales, use and business taxes, and are
payable from these  specific  future taxes.  RANs are issued in expectation of
receipt of other kinds of revenue,  such as federal  revenues  available under
the  federal  revenue  sharing  programs.  BANs are issued to provide  interim
financing  until  long-term  financing  can be  arranged.  In most cases,  the
long-term  bonds then  provide the money for the  repayment  of the notes.  In
most  cases,  tax-exempt  commercial  paper is backed by  letters  of  credit,
lending  agreements,  note  repurchase  agreements  or other  credit  facility
agreements offered by banks or other institutions and is actively traded.

       Private  activity  bonds  (sometimes  called  "industrial   development
bonds") may be issued by or on behalf of public  authorities  to obtain  funds
to provide certain privately owned or operated  facilities.  Because dividends
attributable  to interest  on such bonds may not be tax exempt,  it may not be
desirable  for an  investor  to  purchase  shares of a Fund  which  invests in
private  activity  bonds,  if  such  investor  is  a  "substantial   user"  of
facilities  which  are  financed  by  private  activity  bonds  or  industrial
development bonds or a "related person" of such a substantial user.

       Tax-exempt  securities  may be  purchased  through the  acquisition  of
certificates of accrual or similar instruments  evidencing direct ownership of
interest payments or principal  payments,  or both, on tax-exempt  securities.
In such  arrangements,  any discount  accruing on a certificate  or instrument
that is  purchased  at a yield not greater than the coupon rate of interest on
the related  tax-exempt  securities must be exempt from federal income tax and
applicable  state  income  taxes  to the  same  extent  as  interest  on  such
tax-exempt  securities,  in the  opinion of counsel to the  initial  seller of
each such certificate or instrument.

       Tax-exempt  securities  may also be acquired by  purchasing  from banks
participation  interests  in all or part of specific  holdings  of  tax-exempt
securities.  Such  participations  may be  backed  in  whole  or in part by an
irrevocable  letter of credit or  guarantee  of the selling  bank. A Fund will
have  the  right  to sell the  interest  back to the  bank or other  financial
institutions  and draw on the letter of credit on demand,  generally  on seven
days' notice, for all or any part of the Fund's participation  interest in the
par value of the municipal  obligation plus accrued interest.  Huntington will
generally  exercise the demand on a letter of credit only under the  following
circumstances:  (1) upon  default of any of the terms of the  documents of the
municipal  obligation,  (2) as needed to  provide  liquidity  in order to meet
redemptions,  or (3) in order to maintain a high quality investment portfolio.
The selling bank may receive a fee in connection with the  arrangement.  Banks
and financial institutions are subject to extensive  governmental  regulations
which  may  limit  the  amounts  and  types  of  loans  and  other   financial
commitments  that  may be made  and  interest  rates  and  fees  which  may be
charged.  The  profitability  of banks and financial  institutions  is largely
dependent upon the  availability  and cost of capital funds to finance lending
operations  under  prevailing  money  market   conditions.   General  economic
conditions  also play an important  part in the  operations of these  entities
and exposure to credit losses arising from possible financial  difficulties of
borrowers  may affect the ability of a bank or financial  institution  to meet
its  obligations  with  respect  to a  participation  interest.  A Fund  which
purchases a  participation  interest  must  receive an opinion of counsel or a
ruling of the Internal  Revenue  Service stating that interest earned by it on
the  tax-exempt  securities in which it holds such  participation  interest is
excluded  from gross  income for  federal  regular  income  tax  purposes  and
applicable state income taxes.

       Prices and yields on tax-exempt  securities  are dependent on a variety
of  factors,   including  general  money  market  conditions,   the  financial
condition  of the  issuer,  general  conditions  in the market for  tax-exempt
obligations,   the  size  of  a  particular  offering,  the  maturity  of  the
obligation  and ratings of particular  issues,  and are subject to change from
time to time.  Information  about  the  financial  condition  of an  issuer of
tax-exempt  bonds  or  notes  may not be as  extensive  as that  which is made
available by corporations whose securities are publicly traded.

       Congress or state  legislatures may seek to extend the time for payment
of  principal  or  interest,  or both,  or to impose  other  constraints  upon
enforcement of tax-exempt  securities.  There is also the possibility that, as
a result of  litigation or other  conditions,  the power or ability of issuers
to  meet  their  obligations  to  pay  interest  on  and  principal  of  their
tax-exempt  securities may be materially  impaired or their obligations may be
found to be invalid or  unenforceable.  Such litigation or conditions may from
time to time have the effect of  introducing  uncertainties  in the market for
tax exempt  obligations or certain segments thereof,  or may materially affect
the credit risk with respect to particular bonds or notes.  Adverse  economic,
business,  legal or political  developments  might affect all or a substantial
portion of tax-exempt  securities in the same manner.  Obligations  of issuers
of  tax-exempt  securities  are  subject  to  the  provisions  of  bankruptcy,
insolvency and other laws, such as the Federal Bankruptcy Code,  affecting the
rights and remedies of creditors.

       The Internal  Revenue Code of 1986,  as amended (the  "Code"),  imposes
certain continuing  requirements on issuers of tax-exempt securities regarding
the use,  expenditure  and  investment  of bond  proceeds  and the  payment of
rebates  to the  United  States of  America.  Failure  by the issuer to comply
subsequent  to  the  issuance  of  tax-exempt  bonds  with  certain  of  these
requirements  could cause interest on the bonds to become  includable in gross
income retroactive to the date of issuance.

       Each of the Income Funds,  the Ohio Municipal Money Market Fund and the
Florida  Tax-Free  Money Fund may invest in  tax-exempt  securities.  The Ohio
Tax-Free  Fund may not invest in private  activity  bonds if the  interest  is
treated as a preference item for purposes of the federal  alternative  minimum
tax.   Shareholders  should  consult  their  own  tax  adviser  regarding  the
potential effect on them (if any) of any investment in the Tax-Exempt Funds.

U.S. Government Securities

       U.S.  Government  securities are  securities  that are either issued or
guaranteed  as to payment of principal  and  interest by the U.S.  Government,
its agencies or instrumentalities.  U.S. Government securities are limited to:
direct obligations of the U.S. Treasury,  such as U.S. Treasury bills,  notes,
and bonds and notes,  bonds, and discount notes of U.S. Government agencies or
instrumentalities, including certain mortgage securities.

       Some obligations issued or guaranteed by agencies or  instrumentalities
of the U.S.  Government,  such as  Government  National  Mortgage  Association
participation  certificates,  are  backed by the full  faith and credit of the
U.S. Treasury.

       Other such  obligations  are only  supported by: the issuer's  right to
borrow an amount limited to a specific line of credit from the U.S.  Treasury;
the  discretionary  authority  of the  U.S.  Government  to  purchase  certain
obligations  of an agency or  instrumentality;  or the credit of the agency or
instrumentality.

       All of the Funds may invest in U.S.  Government  securities and may use
them for defensive purposes.

U.S. Treasury Security Futures Contracts and Options

       U.S.   Treasury  security  futures  contracts  require  the  seller  to
deliver,  or the  purchaser  to take  delivery  of, the type of U.S.  Treasury
security called for in the contract at a specified date and price.  Options on
U.S.  Treasury  securities  futures  contracts give the purchaser the right in
return for the premium paid to assume a position in a U.S.  Treasury  security
futures  contract at the specified  option  exercise  price at any time during
the  period of the  option.  U.S.  Treasury  security  futures  contracts  and
options on such contracts are used to hedge against  movements in the value of
tax-exempt securities.

       Successful use of U.S.  Treasury  security futures contracts depends on
the  ability to predict  the  direction  of interest  rate  movements  and the
effects of other  factors on the value of debt  securities.  For example,  the
sale of U.S.  Treasury security futures contracts is used to hedge against the
possibility of an increase in interest rates which would adversely  affect the
value of tax-exempt  securities held in a Fund's portfolio.  If, unexpectedly,
the  prices of the  tax-exempt  securities  increase  following  a decline  in
interest  rates,  the  Fund  will  lose  part  or all of  the  benefit  of the
increased  value of its  securities  which it has hedged  because it will have
offsetting losses in its futures positions.  In addition,  in such situations,
if the Fund has  insufficient  cash,  it may have to sell  securities  to meet
daily   maintenance   margin   requirements   at  a  time   when   it  may  be
disadvantageous to do so.

       There is also a risk that price  movements  in U.S.  Treasury  security
futures  contracts and related  options will not correlate  closely with price
movements in markets for  tax-exempt  securities.  For example,  if a Fund has
hedged against a decline in the values of tax-exempt  securities held by it by
selling  U.S.  Treasury  securities  futures  and the  value of U.S.  Treasury
securities   subsequently   increases   while  the  value  of  its  tax-exempt
securities  decreases,  the Fund will incur  losses on both its U.S.  Treasury
security  futures  contracts and its tax-exempt  securities.  Huntington  will
seek to reduce this risk by monitoring  movements in markets for U.S. Treasury
security futures and options and for tax-exempt securities closely.

       Each of the  Tax-Exempt  Funds may purchase and sell futures  contracts
and  related  options on U.S.  Treasury  securities  when,  in the  opinion of
Huntington,  price  movements in U.S.  Treasury  security  futures and related
options  will  correlate  closely  with  price  movements  in  the  tax-exempt
securities which are the subject of the hedge.

Warrants

       Warrants are basically  options to purchase  common stock at a specific
price  (usually at a premium  above the market  value of the  optioned  common
stock at issuance)  valid for a specific  period of time.  Warrants may have a
life  ranging  from  less  than a year to  twenty  years or may be  perpetual.
However,  most warrants have expiration  dates after which they are worthless.
In  addition,  if the  market  price of the  common  stock does not exceed the
warrant's  exercise  price  during the life of the  warrant,  the warrant will
expire as worthless.  Warrants have no voting  rights,  pay no dividends,  and
have no rights with  respect to the assets of the  corporation  issuing  them.
The  percentage  increase or  decrease in the market  price of the warrant may
tend to be greater  than the  percentage  increase  or  decrease in the market
price of the optioned common stock.

       Each of the Equity Funds may invest in warrants.

When-issued and Delayed Delivery Transactions

<R>

       When-issued and delayed delivery  transactions are arrangements through
which a Fund purchases  securities  with payment and delivery  scheduled for a
future time. No fees or other expenses,  other than normal  transaction costs,
are incurred.  However,  liquid assets of the  purchasing  Fund  sufficient to
make payment for the  securities  are  segregated on the Fund's records at the
trade date.  These assets are then marked to market daily and maintained until
the  transaction  has  been  settled.   A  seller's   failure  to  complete  a
transaction  may cause a Fund to miss a desired  price or yield.  In addition,
because of delayed  settlement,  a Fund may pay more than market  value on the
settlement  date.  Huntington  may choose to dispose of a commitment  prior to
settlement.

       With the exception of the Mortgage  Securities  Fund,  which may invest
up to 35% of its total  assets in  securities  purchased on a  when-issued  or
delayed  delivery basis, the Dividend Capture Fund, the Mid Corp America Fund,
and the New Economy Fund,  which may invest up to 25% of their total assets in
securities  purchased on a  when-issued  or delayed  delivery  basis,  and the
International  Equity Fund,  which has no such  restriction  on total  assets,
none of the  Funds  intend  to  engage in  when-issued  and  delayed  delivery
transactions  to an extent that would cause the  segregation  of more than 20%
of the total value of its assets.

       All of the  Funds  may  engage  in  when-issued  and  delayed  delivery
transactions.

</R>

Zero-coupon Securities

       Zero-coupon  securities are debt obligations which are generally issued
at a discount  and payable in full at  maturity,  and which do not provide for
current  payments  of  interest  prior  to  maturity.  Zero-coupon  securities
usually  trade at a deep discount from their face or par value and are subject
to greater market value  fluctuations  from changing  interest rates than debt
obligations  of  comparable  maturities  which make current  distributions  of
interest.  As a result,  the net asset value of shares of a Fund  investing in
zero-coupon  securities  may  fluctuate  over a greater  range than  shares of
other Funds and other mutual  funds  investing in  securities  making  current
distributions of interest and having similar maturities.

       Zero-coupon  securities may include U.S. Treasury bills issued directly
by the U.S.  Treasury or other  short-term debt  obligations,  and longer-term
bonds or notes and their unmatured  interest coupons which have been separated
by their holder,  typically a custodian bank or investment  brokerage  firm. A
number of securities  firms and banks have stripped the interest  coupons from
the  underlying  principal  (the  "corpus") of U.S.  Treasury  securities  and
resold them in custodial  receipt  programs with a number of different  names,
including  Treasury  Income  Growth  Receipts  ("TIGRS") and  Certificates  of
Accrual on Treasuries  ("CATS").  The underlying U.S. Treasury bonds and notes
themselves are held in book-entry  form at the Federal Reserve Bank or, in the
case of  bearer  securities  (i.e.,  unregistered  securities  which are owned
ostensibly by the bearer or holder thereof),  in trust on behalf of the owners
thereof.

       In addition,  the U.S. Treasury has facilitated  transfers of ownership
of  zero-coupon   securities  by  accounting  separately  for  the  beneficial
ownership of particular  interest coupons and corpus payments on U.S. Treasury
securities through the Federal Reserve book-entry  record-keeping  system. The
Federal Reserve program,  as established by the U.S. Treasury  Department,  is
known as "STRIPS" or "Separate  Trading of  Registered  Interest and Principal
of  Securities."  Under the  STRIPS  program,  a Fund will be able to have its
beneficial  ownership  of  U.S.  Treasury   zero-coupon   securities  recorded
directly  in the  book-entry  record-keeping  system in lieu of having to hold
certificates  or other evidence of ownership of the underlying  U.S.  Treasury
securities.  When debt  obligations  have  been  stripped  of their  unmatured
interest coupons by the holder, the stripped coupons are sold separately.  The
principal  or corpus is sold at a deep  discount  because  the buyer  receives
only the right to receive a future fixed  payment on the security and does not
receive  any rights to  periodic  cash  interest  payments.  Once  stripped or
separated,  the  corpus and  coupons  maybe sold  separately.  Typically,  the
coupons are sold  separately  or grouped with other coupons with like maturity
dates  and sold in such  bundled  form.  Purchasers  of  stripped  obligations
acquire, in effect,  discount  obligations that are economically  identical to
the zero-coupon securities issued directly by the obligor.

       Each of the Income Funds may invest in zero-coupon securities.

Special Risk Factors Applicable to the Ohio Tax-exempt Funds

<R>

       Since the Funds invest  primarily  in issuers from Ohio,  the Funds may
be subject to  additional  risks  compared  to funds that  invest in  multiple
states.  Ohio's economy is relatively  diversified  across the  manufacturing,
agriculture  and services  sectors.  However,  the  manufacturing  sector,  in
particular  automobile  manufacturing  related  industries,  is  still a major
employer within Ohio and exposes the state to the economic  dislocations which
occur within cyclical industries.

</R>

Special Risk Factors Applicable to the Michigan Tax-free Fund

<R>

       Since the Fund invests  primarily in issuers  from  Michigan,  the Fund
may be subject to additional  risks  compared to funds that invest in multiple
states.  Although  it has  diversified,  Michigan's  economy is still  heavily
dependent upon certain industries,  especially  automobile,  manufacturing and
related industries.  Any downturn in these industries may adversely affect the
economy of the state.

</R>

Special Risk Factors Applicable to the Florida Tax-free Money Fund

<R>

       Since the Fund  invests  primarily in issuers  located in Florida,  the
Fund may be subject  to  additional  risks  compared  to funds that  invest in
multiple  states.  Florida's  economy is  centered  on the trade and  services
industry; it is also influenced by agriculture and tourism,  which is the main
driver of the state's economy.
</R>

                           INVESTMENT RESTRICTIONS

<R>

       The following  investment  restrictions  are fundamental and may not be
changed without a vote of a majority of the outstanding shares of a Fund.

All funds (except The Rotating  Index Fund,  The Dividend  Capture  Fund,  The
International  Equity  Fund,  The Mid Corp America  Fund,  and The New Economy
Fund)

       (1)  Except for the Tax-Exempt Funds,  invest more than 5% of the value
            of its total  assets in the  securities  of any one  issuer  (this
            limitation  does not apply to  securities  issued or guaranteed by
            the U.S.  Government  or any of its agencies or  instrumentalities
            or to repurchase agreements secured by such obligations).

       (2)  Purchase more than 10% of the voting securities of any issuer.

       (3)  Invest  25% or  more  of the  value  of its  total  assets  (i) in
            securities  of  companies  primarily  engaged in any one  industry
            (other   than   the   U.S.    Government,    its    agencies   and
            instrumentalities),  and  (ii)  with  respect  to  the  Tax-Exempt
            Funds,  in  municipal  obligations  of one  issuer  or  which  are
            related  in such a way that,  in the  opinion  of  Huntington,  an
            economic,   business   or   political   development   other   than
            state-wide,  national or international  development) affecting one
            such  municipal  obligation  would also affect others in a similar
            manner.  Such  concentration  may occur as a result of  changes in
            the market value of portfolio  securities,  but such concentration
            may not result from investment.

       (4)  Loan more than 20% of the Funds' portfolio  securities to brokers,
            dealers or other financial  organizations.  All such loans will be
            collateralized  by cash or U.S.  Government  obligations  that are
            maintained  at all  times in an amount  equal to at least  102% of
            the current value of the loaned securities.

       (5)  For all Funds except the Florida Tax-Free Money Fund,  invest more
            than 10% (15% in the case of the  Government  Income  Fund) of the
            value  of  its  total  assets  in  illiquid  securities  including
            restricted  securities,  repurchase agreements of over seven days'
            duration and OTC  options.  The Florida  Tax-Free  Money Fund will
            not  invest  more than 10% of the value of its net  assets in such
            illiquid  securities.  The Money  Market  Fund will not include in
            this limitation  commercial paper issued under Section 4(2) of the
            Securities  Act of 1933 and certain  other  restricted  securities
            which  meet the  criteria  for  liquidity  as  established  by the
            Trustees.

       (6)  Borrow  in  excess  of 5% of  its  total  assets  (borrowings  are
            permitted  only  as  a  temporary  measure  for  extraordinary  or
            emergency  purposes) or pledge  (mortgage)  its assets as security
            for an  indebtedness,  except that each of the  Michigan  Tax-Free
            Fund,  Intermediate  Government  Income Fund and Florida  Tax-Free
            Money Fund may borrow  from banks up to 10% of the  current  value
            of its total net assets for  temporary or  defensive  purposes and
            those  borrowings  may be  secured  by the pledge of not more than
            15% (10%  for the  Florida  Tax-Free  Money  Fund) of the  current
            value  of  its  total  net  assets  (but  investments  may  not be
            purchased   by  these   Funds  while  any  such   borrowings   are
            outstanding).

       (7)  Invest  more than 5% of its  total  assets  in  securities  of any
            issuer  which,   together  with  any  predecessor,   has  been  in
            operation for less than three years.

       (8)  Purchase  or sell  real  estate  or real  estate  mortgage  loans;
            provided,  however,  that  the  Funds  may  invest  in  securities
            secured  by  real  estate  or  interests   therein  or  issued  by
            companies which invest in real estate or interests therein.

       (9)  Purchase  or  sell  commodities  or  commodities   contracts,   or
            interests  in  oil,   gas,  or  other   mineral   exploration   or
            development programs provided,  however, that the Funds may invest
            in  futures  contracts  for bona  fide  hedging  transactions,  as
            defined in the General  Regulations  under the Commodity  Exchange
            Act, or for other  transactions  permitted to entities exempt from
            the definition of the term  commodity  pool operator,  as long as,
            immediately  after entering a futures  contract no more than 5% of
            the fair market  value of the Funds'  assets would be committed to
            initial margins.

       (10) Purchase  securities  on margin or effect short sales (except that
            the Funds may obtain such  short-term  credits as may be necessary

            to legal or contractual restrictions on disposition.

       (12) Make  loans  to any  person  or firm  except  as  provided  below;
            provided,  however,  that  the  making  of a  loan  shall  not  be

            debentures,  notes  or  other  evidences  of  indebtedness  of any
            corporation or government  which are publicly  distributed or of a
            type customarily  purchased by institutional  investors (which are
            debt  securities,  generally  rated not less than A by  Moody's or
            S&P,  or the  equivalent,  privately  issued and  purchased by
            such  entities  as  banks,   insurance  companies  and  investment
            companies),   or  (ii)  the  entry  into  repurchase   agreements.
            However,  each of the Funds may lend its  portfolio  securities to
            brokers,  dealers  or  other  institutional  investors  deemed  by
            Huntington,  the Trust's manager,  pursuant to criteria adopted by
            the Trustees,  to be  creditworthy  if, as a result  thereof,  the
            aggregate  value of all securities  loaned does not exceed 20% (5%
            in the case of the Michigan  Tax-Free  Fund) of the value of total
            assets and the loan is collateralized  by cash or U.S.  Government
            obligations  that are  maintained  at all times in an amount equal
            to at  least  102%  of the  current  market  value  of the  loaned
            securities.  Such  transactions  will comply  with all  applicable
            laws and regulations.

       (13) Purchase from or sell portfolio  securities to officers,  Trustees

            individually  own  beneficially  more than one-half of one percent
            of the  securities  of such issuer and together  own  beneficially
            more than 5% of such securities.

       (16) Purchase the securities of other  investment  companies  except by
            purchase in the open  market  where no  commission  or profit to a
            sponsor  or dealer  results  from  such  purchase  other  than the
            customary  broker's  commission  or except  when such  purchase is
            part  of  a  plan  of  merger,  consolidation,  reorganization  or
            acquisition and except as permitted  pursuant to Section  12(d)(1)
            of the 1940 Act.

       (17) Under normal  circumstances,  the Ohio  Tax-Free  Fund will invest

      (18)  Under  normal  circumstances,  the  Michigan  Tax-Free  Fund  will
            invest  its  assets  so  that  as  least  80%  of  the  income  it

            distributes  will be exempt from  federal  regular  income tax. If
            the Fund name  includes the word  "tax-free"  the Fund will invest

            municipalities.

       All percentage  limitations  on  investments  will apply at the time of
the making of an investment  and should not be considered  violated  unless an
excess or  deficiency  occurs or exists  immediately  after and as a result of
such investment.

The Rotating Index Fund, the Dividend Capture Fund, the  International  Equity
Fund, the Mid Corp America Fund, and the New Economy Fund:
<R>

       (1)  May not concentrate  investments in a particular industry or group
            of industries as  concentration  is defined under the 1940 Act, or
            the rules or  regulations  thereunder,  as such statute,  rules or
            regulations may be amended from time to time.

       (2)  May issue senior  securities  to the extent  permitted by the 1940
            Act,  or the rules or  regulations  thereunder,  as such  statute,
            rules or regulations may be amended from time to time.

       (3)  May lend or borrow money to the extent  permitted by the 1940 Act,
            or the rules or regulations thereunder,  as such statute, rules or
            regulations may be amended from time to time.

       (4)  May purchase or sell commodities,  commodities contracts,  futures
            contracts,  or real  estate to the  extent  permitted  by the 1940
            Act,  or the rules or  regulations  thereunder,  as such  statute,
            rules or regulations may be amended from time to time.

       (5)  May  underwrite  securities  to the extent  permitted  by the 1940
            Act,  or the rules or  regulations  thereunder,  as such  statute,
            rules or regulations may be amended from time to time.

       (6)  May  pledge,  mortgage  or  hypothecate  any of its  assets to the
            extent  permitted  by the 1940 Act,  or the  rules or  regulations
            thereunder,  as such statute,  rules or regulations may be amended
            from time to time.

       The  fundamental  limitations  of the Rotating Index Fund, the Dividend
Capture Fund,  the  International  Equity Fund, the Mid Corp America Fund, and
the New  Economy  Fund  have  been  adopted  to avoid  wherever  possible  the
necessity of  shareholder  meetings  otherwise  required by the 1940 Act. This
recognizes  the need to react quickly to changes in the law or new  investment
opportunities  in the  securities  markets  and the cost and time  involved in
obtaining  shareholder  approvals for  diversely  held  investment  companies.
However, the Funds also have adopted  non-fundamental  limitations,  set forth
below,  which in some instances may be more restrictive than their fundamental
limitations.  Any  changes  in a Fund's  non-fundamental  limitations  will be
communicated to the Fund's shareholders prior to effectiveness.

       Note with respect to the Rotating Index,  the Fund will not invest more
than 25% of its total assets in the securities of exchange  traded funds which
concentrate  (i.e.,  invest  more  than  25% of  their  assets)  in  the  same
industry,  provided that (i) through its investment in exchange  traded funds,
the Fund  indirectly  may invest more than 25% of its assets in one  industry,
and  (ii)  the Fund  will  concentrate  more  than  25% of its  assets  in the
investment company industry.

</R>

       1940 Act Restrictions.  Under the 1940 Act, and the rules,  regulations
and  interpretations  thereunder,  a  "diversified  company," as to 75% of its
totals  assets,  may  not  purchase  securities  of  any  issuer  (other  than
obligations  of, or guaranteed  by, the U.S.  Government,  its agencies or its
instrumentalities)  if,  as a  result,  more than 5% of the value of its total
assets would be invested in the  securities of such issuer or more than 10% of
the issuer's voting securities would be held by the fund.  "Concentration"  is
generally  interpreted under the 1940 Act to be investing more than 25% of net
assets in an industry or group of industries.  The 1940 Act limits the ability
of   investment   companies  to  borrow  and  lend  money  and  to  underwrite
securities.  The 1940 Act  currently  prohibits an open-end  fund from issuing
senior  securities,  as defined  in the 1940 Act,  except  under very  limited
circumstances.

       Additionally,  the 1940 Act  limits the Funds  ability to borrow  money
prohibiting  the Fund from  issuing  senior  securities,  except  the Fund may
borrow from any bank provided that immediately  after any such borrowing there
is an asset  coverage  of at least  300%  for all  borrowings  by the Fund and
provided  further,  that in the event  that such asset  coverage  shall at any
time fall below 300%,  the Fund shall,  within three days  thereafter  or such
longer  period as the  Securities  and Exchange  Commission  may  prescribe by
rules and  regulations,  reduce the amount of its borrowings to such an extent
that the asset coverage of such borrowing shall be at least 300%.

<R>

The following are non-fundamental policies of the indicated Fund:

U.S. Treasury Money Market Fund*

o           at least 80% of total  assets  invested in direct  obligations  of
            the U.S.  Treasury and  repurchase  agreements  collateralized  by
            such obligations.

Income Equity Fund*

o           under normal  circumstances,  at least 80% of the value of its net
            assets plus the amount of any borrowings  for investment  purposes
            in equity securities.

Mortgage Securities Fund

o           under normal  circumstances,  at least 80% of the value of its net
            assets plus the amount of any borrowings  for investment  purposes
            in  mortgage-related  securities,  including  mortgage real estate
            investment trusts ("REITs").

o           under normal  circumstances,  at least 80% of the value of its net
            assets plus the amount of any borrowings  for investment  purposes
            in fixed income securities.

Intermediate Government Income Fund*

o           under normal  circumstances,  at least 80% of the value of its net

            assets plus the amount of any borrowings  for investment  purposes
            in equity securities.

* These Funds will  provide  shareholders  with at least 60 days prior  notice
   of any change in this policy as  required  by SEC rule  35d-1.  This policy
   shall be interpreted and implemented in accordance with its purpose,  which
   is solely to comply with Rule 35d-1.

</R>

The following investment  limitations of the Rotating Index Fund, the Dividend
Capture Fund,  the  International  Equity Fund, the Mid Corp America Fund, and
the New Economy Fund are non-fundamental policies. The funds may not:

       (1)  Invest in companies for the purpose of exercising control.

       (2)  Pledge,  mortgage or hypothecate assets except to secure temporary
            borrowings  permitted  by (3) above in  aggregate  amounts  not to
            exceed 15% of total assets  taken at current  value at the time of

            securities lending.

       (3)  Purchase  or sell real  estate,  real estate  limited  partnership
            interest,  commodities or commodities  contracts  (except that the

            contracts,  as  disclosed in the  prospectuses)  and interest in a
            pool of  securities  that are secured by interests in real estate.
            However,  subject  to its  permitted  investments,  the  Funds may

            commodities contracts.

       (4)  Make  short  sales of  securities,  maintain a short  position  or

            short-term  credits as  necessary  for the  clearance  of security
            transactions.

       (5)  Act as an  underwriter of securities of other issuers except as it
            may be deemed an underwriter in selling a Fund security.

       (6)  Issue senior securities (as defined in the Investment  Company Act
            of  1940)  except  in  connection  with  permitted  borrowings  as
            described  above or as permitted by rule,  regulation  or order of
            the Securities and Exchange Commission.

       (7)  Purchase or retain  securities  of an issuer if, to the  knowledge
            of the Trust,  an  officer,  trustee,  partner or  director of the
            Trust or the Adviser owns  beneficially more than 1/2 or 1% of the
            shares  or  securities  of  such  issuer  and all  such  officers,
            trustees,  partners  and  directors  owning more than 1/2 or 1% of
            such  shares  or  securities  together  own  more  than 5% of such
            shares or securities.

       (8)  Invest in interest in oil,  gas, or other mineral  exploration  or
            development programs and oil, gas or mineral leases.

Portfolio Turnover

<R>

       The portfolio  turnover rate of a Fund is defined by the Securities and
Exchange  Commission  as the ratio of the lesser of annual  sales or purchases
to the  monthly  average  value  of the  portfolio,  excluding  from  both the
numerator  and the  denominator  securities  with  maturities  at the  time of
acquisition  of one year or less.  Under  that  definition,  the Money  Market
Funds will have no portfolio  turnover.  Portfolio turnover generally involves
some expense to a Fund,  including  brokerage  commissions or dealer  mark-ups
and other  transactions  costs on the sale of securities and  reinvestment  in
other securities.

       For the fiscal years ended  December 31, 2001 and 2000,  the  portfolio
turnover rates for each of the following Funds were as follows:

Fund                                                              2001      2000
----                                                              ----      ----

Growth Fund.......................................................12%       24%
Income Equity Fund................................................ 33%      41%
Rotating Index Fund...............................................  0%      N/A
Dividend Capture Fund.............................................172%      N/A
International Equity Fund.........................................121%      N/A
Mid Corp America Fund............................................. 11%      N/A
New Economy Fund.................................................. 45%      N/A
Mortgage Securities Fund.......................................... 25%       9%
Ohio Tax-Free Fund................................................ 39%       1%
Michigan Tax-Free Fund............................................ 100%      0%
Fixed Income Securities Fund...................................... 149%     28%
Intermediate Government Income Fund...............................  64%     24%
Short/Intermediate Fixed Income Securities Fund...................  65%     29%

      Portfolio  turnover for the  Michigan  Tax-Free  Fund  increased in 2001
because the  portfolio  manager  restructured  the  portfolio and extended the
average  weighted  maturity to take  advantage of lower  federal  funds rates.
This  resulted in a more  balanced  portfolio  with  laddered  maturities  and
higher coupons.  Portfolio  turnover for the Fixed Income  Securities Fund was
higher in 2001 as the portfolio manager improved the structure,  liquidity and
quality of the  portfolio.  The Fund was  positioned  for the final  stages of
the Federal  Reserve  easing cycle, a bias towards higher yields and improving
portfolio fundamentals.

Investment Adviser

<R>

       On  May  12,  2001,  The  Huntington   National  Bank  reorganized  its
investment  advisory services and created  Huntington Asset Advisors,  Inc., a
separate,  wholly owned subsidiary of The Huntington National Bank. Huntington
Asset  Advisors,  Inc.  has  replaced  The  Huntington  National  Bank  as the
investment advisor to the Huntington Funds. Following the reorganization,  the
management and investment  advisory personnel of The Huntington  National Bank
that  provided  investment   management  services  to  Huntington  Funds  will
continue  to do  so as  the  personnel  of  Huntington  Asset  Advisors,  Inc.
Additionally,  Huntington  Asset Advisors,  Inc. is wholly owned and otherwise
fully  controlled  by  The  Huntington   National  Bank.  As  a  result,  this
transaction is not an  "assignment" of the investment  advisory  contract (and
sub-advisory  contract)  for  purposes  of the  1940  Act  and,  therefore,  a
shareholder vote is not required.

       The Huntington  National Bank is an indirect,  wholly-owned  subsidiary
of Huntington  Bancshares  Incorporated ("HBI") and is deemed to be controlled
by HBI.  With $28.5  billion in assets  under  management  as of December  31,
2001,  HBI is a major  Midwest  regional  bank  holding  company.  Through its
subsidiaries  and  affiliates,  HBI  offers a full  range of  services  to the
public, including:  commercial lending,  depository services, cash management,
brokerage services, retail banking,  international services, mortgage banking,
investment advisory services and trust services.

       Under  the  investment   advisory  agreements  between  the  Trust  and
Huntington  (the  "Investment  Advisory  Agreements"),   Huntington,   at  its
expense,  furnishes a continuous  investment program for the various Funds and
makes  investment  decisions on their behalf,  all subject to such policies as
the  Trustees  may  determine.   Investment   decisions  are  subject  to  the
provisions of the Trust's  Declaration  of Trust and By-laws,  and of the 1940
Act.  In  addition,  Huntington  makes  decisions  consistent  with  a  Fund's
investment  objectives,  policies,  and  restrictions,  and such  policies and
instructions as the Trustees may, from time to time, establish.

      Each  of  the  Funds  pays  advisory  fees  to  Huntington  based  on  a
percentage  of its average  daily net assets as  specified  in the  applicable
Investment  Advisory  Agreement.  During the fiscal  years ended  December 31,
2001, 2000 and 1999, Huntington collected the following fees:

31, 1999,  gross  advisory fees for the  Intermediate  Government  Income Fund
were $533,347, of which $52,707 was voluntarily waived.

       Depending on the size of the Fund,  fees payable  under the  Investment
Advisory  Agreement  may be higher than the  advisory  fee paid by most mutual
funds,  although  the Board of  Trustees  believes  it will be  comparable  to
advisory fees paid by many funds having similar  objectives and policies.  The
Adviser may from time to time agree to  voluntarily  reduce its advisory  fee,
however,  it is not  currently  doing so for each Fund.  While there can be no
assurance  that  the  Adviser  will  choose  to make  such an  agreement,  any
voluntary  reductions  in the  Adviser's  advisory  fee will  lower the Fund's
expenses,  and thus  increase  the Fund's yield and total  return,  during the
period such voluntary reductions are in effect.

       The Investment  Advisory  Agreements  provide that Huntington shall not
be subject to any  liability  for any error of  judgment  or mistake of law or
for any loss  suffered  by the Trust in  connection  with the matters to which
the  Investment  Advisory  Agreements  relate,  except a loss resulting from a
breach of  fiduciary  duty with  respect to the  receipt of  compensation  for
services  or a loss  resulting  from  willful  misfeasance,  bad faith,  gross
negligence,  or reckless  disregard of its  obligations and duties on the part
of Huntington.

       The Investment  Advisory  Agreements may be terminated  without penalty
with  respect  to any Fund at any time by the vote of the  Trustees  or by the
shareholders  of that Fund upon 60 days' written  notice,  or by Huntington on
90 days' written notice. An Investment  Advisory Agreement may be amended only
by a vote of the  shareholders  of the affected  Fund(s).  The Agreements also
terminate  without payment of any penalty in the event of its assignment.  The
Investment  Advisory Agreements provide that they will continue in effect from
year to year only so long as such  continuance  is approved at least  annually
with  respect  to  each  Fund  by the  vote  of  either  the  Trustees  or the
shareholders  of the Fund,  and, in either case, by a majority of the Trustees
who are not "interested persons" of Huntington.

       From time to time,  the  Adviser  may use a portion  of its  investment
advisory fee to pay for certain administrative  services provided by financial
institutions on Investment A Shares or Investment B Shares of the Funds.

       Because of the internal  controls  maintained by Huntington to restrict
the flow of non-public information,  the Funds' investments are typically made
without  any   knowledge   of   Huntington's   or  its   affiliates'   lending
relationships with an issuer.

Approval of Investment Advisory Contract

      <R>

      The investment  advisory  agreement (the  "Agreement")  with  Huntington
Asset  Advisors,  Inc.1 was  formally  considered  by the Board of Trustees at
meetings held in January,  April and August of 2001,  which included  detailed
discussions  held outside the presence of fund  management  and the  Adviser's
personnel.  In conducting its review,  the Board of Trustees,  all of whom are
independent   trustees  for  purposes  of  the  1940  Act,   were  advised  by
independent  legal counsel.  The Board's review addressed a variety of factors
including:  (1) the nature,  quality  and extent of  services  provided to the
Trust  under  the  Agreement;  (2)  the  Trust's  investment  performance  and
expenses under the Agreement,  (3) information  comparing the Trust's expenses
and investment  performance to that of other comparable  mutual funds, and (4)
the  reasonableness  of the  profitability of Huntington Asset Advisors,  Inc.
with respect to each portfolio in the Trust. In analyzing  these factors,  the
Board  reviewed  and  considered   highly  detailed  expense  and  performance
comparison  information  provided by Lipper Inc. (an  independent  provider of
mutual fund data).  These  materials  compared the expenses and performance of
each  portfolio to a broad or general  universe of funds and to a "peer group"
of funds.  The Board  further  reviewed  staffing  information  including  the
recruiting  and  retention of qualified  investment  professionals.  The Board
also reviewed the  investment  processes  employed by the Adviser with respect
to each Fund.

      As disclosed  elsewhere in this  Statement  of  Additional  Information,
Huntington Asset Advisors,  Inc. has soft dollar arrangements by which brokers
provide research to Huntington  Asset Advisors,  Inc. in return for allocating
brokerage  to such  brokers.  The Board  considered  these  arrangements.  The
Board also  considered  the costs and  benefits to  affiliates  of  Huntington
Asset  Advisors,   Inc.  such  as  costs  and  benefits  associated  with  the
assumption  of  duties  as  administrator   and  custodian  to  the  Trust  by
Huntington  National Bank.  Also  considered  was the business  reputation and
financial  resources  of  Huntington  Asset  Advisors,  Inc.  and its ultimate
corporate parent, Huntington Bancshares Incorporated.

      Based on its review,  the Board of Trustees approved  continuance of the
Investment  Advisory  Agreement and determined the compensation  payable under
such  agreement  to be fair  and  reasonable  in  light  of  Huntington  Asset
Advisors,  Inc.'s  services  and  expenses  and such  matters as the  Trustees
considered  to be  relevant  in the  exercise  of  their  reasonable  business
judgment, including most particularly those identified above.

1 In 2001,  Huntington  replaced  Huntington Bank as the investment adviser to
the Trust.  Because the Adviser is a wholly owned  subsidiary  of the Bank and
all management and investment  advisory  personnel remain unchanged,  transfer
of the  investment  advisory  function does not  constitute an assignment  for
purposes  of the  Investment  Company  Act of 1940  and,  therefore,  does not
require shareholder approval.

</R>

Sub-Advisers
<R>
       Effective  May 1, 2001,  the  Florida  Tax-Free  Money  Market  Fund no
longer  has a  sub-adviser.  Prior to May 1,  2000,  the  sub-adviser  for the
Florida    Tax-Free   Money   Fund   was   Countrywide    Investments,    Inc.
("Countrywide"),  an indirect  subsidiary  of The Western  and  Southern  Life
Insurance  Company.  As of May 1, 2000,  Countrywide  reorganized  part of its
investment advisory operations into its affiliate,  Fort Washington Investment
Advisors,  Inc. ("Fort Washington").  From May 1, 2000 to April 30, 2001, Fort
Washington,  whose address is 420 E. Fourth  Street,  Cincinnati,  Ohio 45202,
served as sub-adviser to the Florida Tax-Free Money Fund.

       For the period ended April 30, 2001,  Huntington paid sub-advisory fees
of $75,771 to Fort  Washington.  For the fiscal  year ended  2000,  Huntington
paid  sub-advisory  fees of  $32,313  and  $68,415  to  Countrywide  and  Fort
Washington,  respectively.  For the fiscal  year ended 1999,  Huntington  paid
Countrywide as sub-adviser to the Florida Tax-Free Money Fund $62,555.

       Effective December 31, 2001, the Huntington  International  Equity Fund
no longer has a sub-adviser.  Prior to December 31, 2001, the  sub-adviser for
the  Huntington  International  Equity Fund was  Federated  Global  Investment
Management Corp. ("FGIM").  From May 1, 2001 to December 31, 2001, FGIM, whose
address is 175 Water Street, New York, NY 10038,  served as sub-adviser to the
Fund. Huntington will now serve as investment adviser to the Fund

       For the fiscal year ended 2001,  Huntington paid  sub-advisory  fees of
$114,176 to FGIM.

</R>

Glass-Steagall Act

<R>

       The  Gramm-Leach-Bliley  Act of 1999 repealed certain provisions of the
Glass-Steagall  Act that had  previously  restricted  the ability of banks and
their  affiliates to engage in certain mutual fund  activities.  Nevertheless,
the Adviser's  activities remain subject to, and may be limited by, applicable
federal banking law and regulations.  The Adviser and the Sub-Adviser  believe
that they  possess the legal  authority  to perform the services for the Funds
contemplated  by  the  Investment  Advisory  Agreement  and  the  Sub-Advisory
Agreement and described in the  Prospectuses  and this Statement of Additional
Information  and has so represented in the Investment  Advisory  Agreement and
the  Sub-Advisory  Agreement.  Future  changes  in  either  federal  or  state
statutes and regulations  relating to the  permissible  activities of banks or
bank holding  companies and the  subsidiaries or affiliates of those entities,
as well as further judicial or administrative  decisions or interpretations of
present and future  statutes  and  regulations  could  prevent or restrict the
Adviser  from  continuing  to perform such  services for the Trust.  Depending
upon the nature of any changes in the  services  that could be provided by the
Adviser,  or the Sub-Adviser,  the Board of Trustees of the Trust would review
the Trust's  relationship  with the Adviser and the  Sub-Adviser  and consider
taking all action necessary in the circumstances.

       Should further legislative,  judicial or administrative action prohibit
or  restrict  the  activities  of  the  Adviser,   its  affiliates,   and  its
correspondent  banks in connection  with  Customer  purchases of Shares of the
Trust,  such Banks might be required to alter  materially or  discontinue  the
services offered by them to Customers.  It is not anticipated,  however,  that
any change in the  Trust's  method of  operations  would  affect its net asset
value per Share or result in financial losses to any Customer.

Portfolio Transactions

<R>

       Huntington may place portfolio  transactions with broker-dealers  which
furnish, without cost, certain research,  statistical,  and quotation services
of value to  Huntington  and its  affiliates  in advising  the Trust and other
clients,  provided that they shall always seek best price and  execution  with
respect to the  transactions.  Certain  investments may be appropriate for the
Trust and for other clients  advised by Huntington.  Investment  decisions for
the  Trust  and  other  clients  are  made  with a  view  to  achieving  their
respective  investment  objectives and after  consideration of such factors as
their current holdings,  availability of cash for investment,  and the size of
their investments generally.  Frequently,  a particular security may be bought
or sold for only one client or in  different  amounts and at  different  times
for more than one but less than all clients.  Likewise,  a particular security
may be bought  for one or more  clients  when one or more  other  clients  are
selling the  security.  In addition,  purchases or sales of the same  security
may be made for two or more clients of an investment  adviser on the same day.
In such event,  such  transactions  will be  allocated  among the clients in a
manner  believed by Huntington  to be equitable to each.  In some cases,  this
procedure  could  have  an  adverse  effect  on the  price  or  amount  of the
securities  purchased  or sold by the Trust.  Purchase and sale orders for the
Trust  may be  combined  with  those of other  clients  of  Huntington  in the
interest of achieving the most favorable net results for the Trust.

       As part of its regular  banking  operations,  Huntington may make loans
to public  companies.  Thus,  it may be possible,  from time to time,  for the
Funds to hold or acquire  the  securities  of issuers  which are also  lending
clients of Huntington.  The lending  relationship  will not be a factor in the
selection of securities for the Funds.

</R>

Brokerage Allocation and Other Practices

<R>

       Transactions  on U.S.  stock  exchanges  and other agency  transactions
involve  the  payment  by a Fund of  negotiated  brokerage  commissions.  Such
commissions  vary among  different  brokers.  Also,  a  particular  broker may
charge different  commissions  according to such factors as the difficulty and
size of the transaction.  Transactions in foreign securities often involve the
payment of fixed brokerage commissions,  which are generally higher than those
in the United States.  There is generally no stated  commission in the case of
securities  traded in the  over-the-counter  markets,  but the price paid by a
Fund  usually  includes  an  undisclosed  dealer  commission  or  mark-up.  In
underwritten offerings,  the price paid by a Fund includes a disclosed,  fixed
commission or discount retained by the underwriter or dealer.

       Huntington  places all orders for the  purchase  and sale of  portfolio
securities  for a Fund and buys and  sells  securities  for a Fund  through  a
substantial  number of  brokers  and  dealers.  In so doing,  it uses its best
efforts  to obtain  for a Fund the best  price  and  execution  available.  In
seeking  the best  price and  execution,  Huntington,  having in mind a Fund's
best interests,  considers all factors it deems relevant, including, by way of
illustration,  price,  the size of the  transaction,  the nature of the market
for the security, the amount of the commission,  the timing of the transaction
taking into account market prices and trends, the reputation,  experience, and
financial stability of the broker-dealer  involved, and the quality of service
rendered by the broker-dealer in other transactions.

       It  has  for  many  years  been a  common  practice  in the  investment
advisory   business   for   advisers  of   investment   companies   and  other
institutional  investors  to  receive  research,  statistical,  and  quotation
services  from  broker-dealers  that execute  portfolio  transactions  for the
clients of such advisers.  Consistent with this practice,  Huntington receives
research,  statistical,  and quotation services from many  broker-dealers with
which it places a Fund's  portfolio  transactions.  These  services,  which in
some cases may also be  purchased  for cash,  include  such matters as general
economic  and  security   market  reviews,   industry  and  company   reviews,
evaluations of securities,  and recommendations as to the purchase and sale of
securities.  Some  of  these  services  are of  value  to  Huntington  and its
affiliates  in  advising  various  of their  clients  (including  the  Trust),
although  not all of these  services  are  necessarily  useful and of value in
managing  the  Trust.  The fee  paid by a Fund to  Huntington  is not  reduced
because Huntington and its affiliates receive such services.

       As permitted by Section 28(e) of the  Securities  Exchange Act of 1934,
as amended, and by the Investment Advisory Agreements,  Huntington may cause a
Fund to pay a broker-dealer  that provides the brokerage and research services
described  above an amount of disclosed  commission for effecting a securities
transaction   for  the  Fund  in  excess  of  the  commission   which  another
broker-dealer  may  charge  for  effecting  that   transaction.   Huntington's
authority to cause a Fund to pay any such greater  commissions is also subject
to such policies as the Trustees may adopt from time to time.

       In the fiscal years ended  December 31, 2001,  2000 and 1999, the Funds
named below paid the following brokerage commissions:

       Brokerage  commissions  for the Income  Equity Fund,  increased in 2000
versus 1999 primarily as a result of increased  portfolio turnover in order to
reduce unrealized gains and losses.

Code of Ethics

<R>

       Each of the Trust, the Adviser,  and the Distributor  maintain Codes of
Ethics  which permit their  personnel  to invest in  securities  for their own
accounts.  As of the date of this SAI,  copies of these  Codes of Ethics  have
been filed with the  Securities  and  Exchange  Commission  as exhibits to the
Trust's Registration Statement.

Administrative Services Agreement

       The Trust has entered into an  Administrative  Services  Agreement with
Huntington  Bank  pursuant  to which  Huntington  Bank  will  perform  certain
shareholder  support  services with respect to the Trust Shares and Investment
A Shares of each of the Funds. Such shareholder  support services may include,
but are not limited to, (i) establishing and maintaining  shareholder accounts
and  records  pertaining  to  such  accounts;  (ii)  processing  dividend  and
distribution  payments  from  the  Funds  on  behalf  of  shareholders;  (iii)
providing periodic  shareholder  account statements of holdings in each of the
Funds and  integrating  such  information  with  holdings  maintained in other
accounts  serviced by Huntington  Bank;  (iv)  arranging  for bank wires;  (v)
responding  to  shareholder  inquiries  regarding  services  performed;   (vi)
responding  to  shareholder  inquiries  regarding  their  investments;   (vii)
providing  sub-accounting  with respect to omnibus accounts held by Huntington
through which shareholders are invested in the Funds and other  sub-accounting
requested by the Trust; (viii) where required by law,  forwarding  shareholder
communications from the Trust (such as proxies,  shareholder  reports,  annual
and semi-annual financial statements and dividend,  distribution and other tax
notices) to shareholders;  (ix) assisting in processing purchase, exchange and
redemption requests from shareholders;  (x) assisting in processing changes in
shareholder  dividend options,  account  designations and addresses of record;
(xi)  processing  shareholder   participation  in  systematic  investment  and

Trust may reasonably request to the extent permitted under applicable laws.

       In  consideration  for such  services,  Huntington is paid a fee by the
Funds at a maximum  annual rate of up to 0.25% of the average  daily net asset
value of such  Shares of each Fund.  Huntington  has  contractually  agreed to
waive such fees to the rate of 0.10% of  average  daily net assets for each of
the Funds through April 30, 2001.

       The  Administrative  Services Agreement became effective on November 1,
2000 and will  continue  in effect  for a period of one year,  and  thereafter
will continue for successive  one-year  periods,  unless  terminated by either
party.

      Expenses

<R>

       The Trust's service  providers bear all expenses in connection with the
performance of their respective services,  except that each Fund will bear the
following  expenses  relating to its operations:  taxes,  interest,  brokerage
fees and  commissions,  if any,  fees and travel  expenses of Trustees who are
not partners,  officers,  directors,  shareholders  or employees of Huntington
Bank,  Securities  and Exchange  Commission  fees and state fees and expenses,
certain  insurance  premiums,  outside  and, to the extent  authorized  by the
Trust,  inside  auditing and legal fees and  expenses,  fees charged by rating
agencies in having the Fund's Shares rated,  advisory and administration fees,
fees and  reasonable  out-of-pocket  expenses of the  custodian  and  transfer
agent,  expenses  incurred for pricing  securities owned by the Fund, costs of
maintenance of corporate existence,  typesetting and printing prospectuses for
regulatory  purposes and for distribution to current  Shareholders,  costs and
expenses  of  Shareholders'   and  Trustees'  reports  and  meetings  and  any
extraordinary expenses.
</R>
Distributor

      The Fund's Distributor,  Edgewood Services Inc.,  (Distributor)  markets
the Shares to institutions or to individuals,  directly or through  investment
professionals.   When  the  Distributor  receives  marketing  fees  and  sales
charges,  it may pay  some or all of them  to  investment  professionals.  The
Distributor  and its  affiliates  may pay out of their  assets  other  amounts
(including items of material value) to investment  professionals for marketing
and servicing Shares. The Distributor is a subsidiary of Federated  Investors,
Inc.

Distribution Plan (12b-1 Fees)

<R>

      Consistent  with Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act,  the Trust has adopted a
Distribution  Plan pursuant to which brokers and dealers receive fees from the
Funds in connection with the sale and  distribution of Investment A Shares and
Investment B Shares and the  provision of  shareholder  services to holders of
such share  classes.  The Trust expects that the  distribution  efforts funded
through the use of 12b-1 fees will increase  assets and therefore  reduce Fund
expenses  through  economies of scale, and provide greater  opportunities  for
diversified investments.

      In accordance with the  Distribution  Plan, the Distributor or the Funds
may enter into  agreements  with brokers and dealers  relating to distribution
and/or administrative  services with respect to the Investment A Shares and/or
Investment  B Shares  of the  Funds.  The  Distributor  or the  Funds may also
enter into agreements with administrators  (including financial  institutions,
fiduciaries,  custodians for public funds, and investment advisers) to provide
administrative  services with respect to Investment A Shares and/or Investment
B Shares.  Administrative  services may  include,  but are not limited to, the
following   functions:    providing   office   space,   equipment,   telephone
facilities, and various clerical,  supervisory,  computer, and other personnel
as necessary or beneficial to establish and maintain  shareholder accounts and
records;   processing  purchase  and  redemption  transactions  and  automatic
investments of customer  account cash  balances;  answering  routine  customer
inquiries  regarding  Investment A Shares or  Investment  B Shares;  assisting
customers in changing dividend options,  account designations,  and addresses;
and  providing  such  other  services  as the  Distributor  or the  Funds  may
reasonably  request in connection  with  investments in Investment A Shares or
Investment B Shares.

      Payments  made  under  the  Distribution  Plan  are made  regardless  of
expenses incurred by the Distributor in providing these services.

      For  each of the  Investment  A Shares  class  and  Investment  B Shares
class, the  Distribution  Plan may be terminated with respect to any Fund by a
vote of a majority of the Independent  Trustee,  or by a vote of a majority of
the outstanding  Investment A Shares or Investment B Shares (as applicable) of
that Fund.  The  Distribution  Plan may be  amended  by vote of the  Trustees,
including a majority of the Independent  Trustee,  cast in person at a meeting
called for such purpose,  except that any change in the Distribution Plan that
would materially  increase the fee payable  thereunder for either Investment A
Shares or  Investment B Shares with respect to a Fund requires the approval of
the  shareholders  of that Fund's  Investment A Shares or  Investment B Shares
(as  applicable).  The  Trustees  will review on a quarterly  and annual basis
written  reports of the amounts  received and expended under the  Distribution
Plan (including amounts paid to brokers,  dealers and administrators  pursuant
to any agreements  entered into under the  Distribution  Plan)  indicating the
purposes for which such expenditures were made."

       The  Distribution  Plan  provides  that it will continue in effect with
respect to each Fund for successive one-year periods,  provided that each such
continuance  is  specifically  approved  (i) by the vote of a majority  of the
Independent  Trustees and (ii) by the vote of a majority of all the  Trustees,
cast in  person  at a  meeting  called  for such  purpose.  For so long as the
Distribution  Plan remains in effect,  the selection  and  nomination of those
Trustees who are not  interested  persons of the Trust (as defined in the 1940
Act) shall be committed to the discretion of such independent persons.

                              SHAREHOLDER RIGHTS

       The  Trust  is  an  open-end  management   investment  company,   whose
Declaration of Trust permits the Trust to offer  separate  series of shares of
beneficial  interest,   representing   interests  in  separate  portfolios  of
securities.  The  shares in any one  portfolio  may be  offered in two or more
separate  classes.  As of the date of this SAI, the Trustees have  established
four classes of shares,  known as  Investment  A Shares,  Investment B Shares,
Trust Shares,  and Interfund Shares.  Interfund Shares are offered only by the
Money  Market  Fund.  Investment  A Shares  and  Investment  B  Shares  of the
Short/Intermediate  Fixed  Income  Securities  Fund  are not  presently  being
offered to the  public.  Only the Money  Market  Fund,  the Growth  Fund,  the
Income Equity Fund, the Dividend Capture Fund, the International  Equity Fund,
the Mid  Corp  America  Fund,  the New  Economy  Fund  and  the  Fixed  Income
Securities Fund presently offer Investment B Shares.

       Investment A Shares,  Investment B Shares,  Trust Shares, and Interfund
Shares of a Fund are fully  transferable.  Each class is entitled to dividends
from the respective class assets of the Fund as declared by the Trustees,  and
if the Trust (or a Fund)  were  liquidated,  the  shareholders  of each  class
would  receive  the net  assets of the Fund  attributable  to each  respective
class.

       All  shareholders  are  entitled to one vote for each share held on the
record  date  for  any  action  requiring  a vote by the  shareholders,  and a
proportionate  fractional vote for each fractional share held. Shareholders of
the Trust will vote in the  aggregate  and not by Fund or class  except (i) as
otherwise  expressly  required by law or when the Trustees  determine that the
matter to be voted upon affects only the  interests of the  shareholders  of a
particular  Fund or class,  or (ii) only holders of Investment A Shares and/or
Investment  B  Shares  will  be  entitled  to  vote on  matters  submitted  to
shareholder  vote with respect to the Rule 12b-1 Plan applicable to such class
or classes.

       The rights of shareholders cannot be modified without a majority vote.

       The Trust is not required to hold annual meetings of  shareholders  for
the  purpose of  electing  Trustees  except  that (i) the Trust is required to
hold a  shareholders'  meeting  for the  election  of Trustees at such time as
less than a majority  of the  Trustees  holding  office  have been  elected by
shareholders  and (ii) if, as a result of a vacancy on the Board of  Trustees,
less than  two-thirds of the Trustees  holding office have been elected by the
shareholders,  that vacancy may only be filled by a vote of the  shareholders.
In addition,  Trustees may be removed from office by a written  consent signed
by the holders of shares representing  two-thirds of the outstanding shares of
the Trust at a meeting  duly called for the  purpose,  which  meeting  must be
held upon written  request of not less than 10% of the  outstanding  shares of
the Trust.  Upon written  request by the holders of shares  representing 1% of
the  outstanding  shares of the Trust stating that such  shareholders  wish to
communicate  with the other  shareholders  for the  purpose of  obtaining  the
signatures  necessary  to demand a meeting to  consider  removal of a Trustee,
the Trust  will  provide a list of  shareholders  or  disseminate  appropriate
materials  (at the  expense  of the  requesting  shareholders).  Except as set
forth  above,  the  Trustees  may  continue  to hold  office  and may  appoint
successor Trustees.

       Under   Massachusetts   law,    shareholders   could,   under   certain
circumstances,  beheld  personally  liable for the  obligations  of the Trust.
However, the Declaration of Trust disclaims  shareholder liability for acts or
obligations of the Trust and requires that notice of such  disclaimer be given
in each agreement,  obligation,  or instrument entered into or executed by the
Trust or the Trustees.  The Declaration of Trust provides for  indemnification
out of a Fund's  property  for all loss and  expense of any  shareholder  held
personally  liable  for  the  obligations  of  a  Fund.  Thus  the  risk  of a
shareholder's  incurring financial loss on account of shareholder liability is
limited  to  circumstances  in which  the Fund  would  be  unable  to meet its
obligations.

       Shareholder  inquiries regarding Investment A Shares should be directed
to The Huntington  Investment  Company, 41 South High Street,  Columbus,  Ohio
43287.

       Shareholder  inquiries regarding Investment B Shares should be directed
to The Huntington  Investment  Company, 41 South High Street,  Columbus,  Ohio
43287.

       Shareholder  inquiries  regarding  Trust  Shares  or  Interfund  Shares
should be directed to Huntington,  41 South High Street, Columbus, Ohio 43215,
Attn: Trust Services.

       Additional Information on Purchases, Exchanges and Redemptions

       Investment  A Shares and  Investment  B Shares of each of the Funds may
be purchased,  exchanged or redeemed by contacting  the Trust,  The Huntington
Investment Company or a Huntington Personal Banker.

       Trust Shares may be purchased only through fiduciary,  advisory, agency
and other  similar  accounts  maintained  by or on behalf of Huntington or its
affiliates or correspondent  banks.  Individuals who receive Trust Shares as a
result of a trust distribution or similar  transaction or by operation of law,
will be  permitted  to retain such  shares,  but may not  purchase  additional
Trust  Shares,   except  by  means  of  the   reinvestment   of  dividends  or
distributions.  Exchanges  of  Trust  Shares,  if  permitted  by  the  account
agreement,  as well as redemptions of Trust Shares, are made by contacting the
Trust.

       Interfund  Shares are  available  only for  purchase by the  Huntington
Equity Funds and the Huntington  Income Funds and may be purchased,  exchanged
or redeemed by contacting the Trust.

       Telephone  purchase,  exchange or  redemption  requests may be recorded
and will be binding upon an investor.  Use of the  telephone  for exchanges or
redemptions  involves the possible  risk of loss,  since anyone  providing the
required  information may be able to use the service without the shareholder's
permission.  If reasonable procedures are not followed by the Trust, it may be
liable for losses due to unauthorized or fraudulent telephone instructions.

       In times of extreme  economic or market  conditions,  shareholders  may
have  difficulty   making   redemptions  or  exchanges  by  telephone.   If  a
shareholder cannot make contact by telephone,  redemption or exchange requests
should be made in writing and sent by overnight mail to the Trust.

       In  connection  with  certain  redemption  or  exchange   requests,   a
shareholder   may  be   required   to  obtain  a   signature   guarantee   for
authentication purposes. In such cases, the signature must be guaranteed by:

       o    a trust company or commercial  bank whose  deposits are insured by
            the Bank  Insurance  Fund ("BIF"),  which is  administered  by the
            FDIC;

       o    a member of the New York,  American,  Midwest,  or  Pacific  Stock
            Exchanges;

       o    a savings bank or savings and loan association  whose deposits are
            insured by the Savings Association Insurance Fund ("SAIF"),  which
            is administered by the FDIC; or

       o    any other  "eligible  guarantor  institution,"  as  defined in the
            Securities Exchange Act of 1934.

       The Trust does not accept signatures  guaranteed by a notary public. In
the future,  the Trust may elect to limit  eligible  signature  guarantors  to
institutions  that are members of a  signature  guarantee  program.  The Trust
reserves the right to amend these standards at any time without notice.

Other Purchase Information

       Purchases  of all classes of shares are made at net asset  value,  plus
(for  Investment A Shares only) any  applicable  sales charge.  All purchases,
except for of Interfund Shares, are subject to minimum purchase  requirements,
but  these  requirements  may  be  waived  by  the  Distributor.  Payment  for
Investment  A Shares or  Investment  B Shares may not be by third party check,
and any checks  drawn from a bank  located  outside the U.S.  will result in a
delay in processing until the check has cleared.

       If at any time the right to purchase  shares is suspended,  although no
new purchases may be made, in some circumstances  existing shareholders may be
permitted to purchase additional shares and have dividends reinvested.

       Payment in Kind. In addition to payment by check,  shares of a Fund may
be purchased by customers of Huntington in exchange for securities  held by an
investor  which  are  acceptable  to  that  Fund.   Investors   interested  in
exchanging  securities must first  telephone  Huntington at (800) 253-0412 for
instructions  regarding  submission of a written description of the securities
the investor  wishes to exchange.  Within five business days of the receipt of
the written  description,  Huntington  will advise the  investor by  telephone
whether  the  securities  to be  exchanged  are  acceptable  to the Fund whose
shares the  investor  desires  to  purchase  and will  instruct  the  investor
regarding  delivery  of the  securities.  There is no charge for this  review.
Securities  which have been  accepted by a Fund must be delivered  within five
days following acceptance.

       Securities  accepted by a Fund are valued in the manner and on the days
described  in the section  entitled  "Determination  of Net Asset Value" as of
4:00 p.m. (Eastern Time).

       The value of the  securities  to be exchanged  and of the shares of the
Fund may be higher or lower on the day Fund  shares  are  offered  than on the
date of receipt by Huntington of the written  description of the securities to
be exchanged.  The basis of the exchange of such  securities for shares of the
Fund will  depend on the value of the  securities  and the net asset  value of
Fund shares next  determined  following  acceptance on the day Fund shares are
offered.  Securities to be exchanged must be accompanied by a transmittal form
which is available from Huntington.

       A gain or loss for federal  income tax  purposes may be realized by the
investor upon the  securities  exchange  depending  upon the cost basis of the
securities  tendered.  All interest,  dividends,  subscription or other rights
with respect to accepted  securities  which go "ex" (the interval  between the
announcement  and the  payments of the next  dividend or right) after the time
of  valuation  become the  property of the Fund and must be  delivered  to the
Fund by the investor  forthwith  upon receipt  from the issuer.  Further,  the
investor must represent and agree that all securities  offered to the Fund are
not  subject  to any  restrictions  upon  their  sale by the  Fund  under  the
Securities Act of 1933, or otherwise.

       Sales  Charge   Reductions   (Investment   A  Shares).   Sales  charges
applicable  in  purchases  of  Investment  A Shares may be reduced for certain
investors  or groups  of  investors  who make  larger  investments.  Investors
wishing to take advantage of these reductions should call the Trust.

       Accumulated   Purchases.   If  an  existing  shareholder  already  owns
Investment A Shares on which he or she paid a sales  charge,  the sales charge
or any  additional  purchases  will be  reduced  if the  total  amount  of the
purchases would make the investor eligible for a sales charge reduction.

       For example,  a shareholder who purchased  $150,000 worth of Investment
A Shares in a Fund,  the sales charge on an  additional  $150,000  purchase in
that Fund would be the charge applicable to a $300,000 investment.

       Letter of Intent.  An investor who signs a letter of intent to purchase
within a 13-month  period at least  $100,000  worth of  Investment A Shares in
any Equity or Income Fund will be eligible  for the  applicable  sales  charge
reduction  on each  purchase  over the  13-month  period.  Until the  investor
reaches the necessary threshold,  the amount of the sales charge discount will
be held in escrow by the Trust.

       For  example,  an  investor  who signs a letter  of intent to  purchase
$100,000 in  Investment A Shares of an Equity Fund will only pay a 5.75% sales
charge on all purchases  made during the period which total at least  $100,000
and will deposit 1.00% (the amount of the discount) in escrow.

       The amount held in escrow will be applied to the investor's  account at
the end of the 13-month  period  unless the amount  specified in the Letter of
Intent is not  purchased.  In order to  qualify  for a Letter of  Intent,  the
investor  will be required to make a minimum  initial  investment  of at least
$25,000.

       A  Letter  of  Intent  will  not  obligate  the  investor  to  purchase
Investment A Shares,  but if he does,  each purchase during the period will be
at the sales charge  applicable to the total amount  intended to be purchased.
The Letter of Intent may be dated as of a prior date to include any  purchases
made within the past 90 days.

       Reinstatement  Privilege.  Every  shareholder  has  a  one-time  right,
within 30 days of redeeming  Investment A Shares,  to reinvest the  redemption
proceeds at the  next-determined net asset value without any sales charge. The
investor  must  notify  the  Trust  in  writing  of  the  reinvestment  by the
shareholder in order to eliminate a sales charge.

       If the  shareholder  redeems  Investment  A  Shares  and  utilizes  the
reinstatement privilege, there may be tax consequences.

       Concurrent  Purchases.  For purposes of  qualifying  for a sales charge
reduction,  an investor  may combine  concurrent  purchases  of  Investment  A
Shares in two or more  Equity or Income  Funds.  For  example,  if an investor
concurrently  purchases  Investment A Shares in one Fund totaling  $30,000 and
Investment A Shares in another Fund  totaling  $70,000,  the sales charge will
be reduced for each investment as if $100,000 had been invested in each Fund.

       To receive  this sales  charge  reduction,  the  applicable  Huntington
Group  member must be notified in writing by the  shareholder  at the time the
concurrent purchases are made.

Other Exchange Information

       Exchanges may only be made between Funds having  identical  shareholder
registrations. For any other exchanges you must obtain a signature guarantee.

       Unless otherwise  specified in writing,  the existing  registration and
reinvestment  options  relating to a Fund being exchanged will be used for any
new Fund accounts required to be opened in the exchange.

       Exchanges  will not be  available  for shares  purchased by check until
the check has cleared.

Other Redemption Information

<R>

       Redemptions of all classes of shares are made at net asset value,  less
(for  Investment B Shares only) any applicable  CDSC. If you make exchanges of
your  Investment B Shares among the Funds,  the holding period for purposes of
determining the applicable CDSC will be determined  based on the purchase date
of your original shares.

       If a  shareholder  wishes to wire  redemption  proceeds to a bank other
than the one  previously  designated,  redemption may be delayed by as much as
seven  days.  To  change  the name of the  bank  account  to which  redemption
proceeds will be wired, a shareholder  should send a written  request (and, if
necessary,  with a  signature  guarantee)  to the  Trust,  c/o The  Huntington
National  Bank,  41  South  High  Street  (HC  1116),   Columbus  Ohio  43287,
Attention: Investor Services.

       Proceeds from the  redemption of shares  purchased by check will not be
available until the check has cleared.

       Shareholders  of the Money  Market  Funds  who  write  checks to redeem
Investment A Shares may be subject to certain  checking  account fees.  Checks
written on these accounts may be negotiated  through the  shareholder's  local
bank and should not be sent to the issuing bank in order to redeem  Investment
A Shares. Canceled checks are sent to the shareholder each month.

       Redemption in kind.  Although the Funds intend to pay Share redemptions
in cash,  they reserve the right,  as described  below,  to pay the redemption
price  in  whole  or  in  part  by a  distribution  of  the  Fund's  portfolio
securities.

       Because  the Funds have  elected to be governed by Rule 18f-1 under the
1940  Act,  the  Funds  are  obligated  to pay  Share  redemptions  to any one
shareholder  in cash only up to the lesser of $250,000 or 1% of the net assets
represented by such Share class during any 90-day period.

       Any Share  redemption  payment greater than this amount will also be in
cash unless the Fund  determines  that  payment  should be in kind.  In such a
case,  the Funds will pay all or a portion of the remainder of the  redemption
in portfolio securities,  valued in the same way as a Fund determines its NAV.
The  portfolio  securities  will be selected in a manner that the Fund's Board
deems fair and equitable and, to the extent  available,  such  securities will
be readily marketable.

       Redemption  in  kind  is  not  as  liquid  as  a  cash  redemption.  If
redemption is made in kind,  shareholders  receiving the portfolio  securities
and selling them before their  maturity could receive less than the redemption
value of the securities and could incur certain transaction costs.

DETERMINATION OF NET ASSET VALUE


       Net asset  value is  calculated  as of the close of the New York  Stock
Exchange  every Monday  through  Friday except (i) days on which there are not
sufficient changes in the value of a Fund's portfolio  securities that its net
asset value might be  materially  affected;  (ii) days during  which no shares
are tendered for  redemption  and no orders to purchase  shares are  received;
(iii) the following  holidays:  New Year's Day,  Presidents' Day, Good Friday,
Memorial Day,  Independence  Day, Labor Day,  Thanksgiving  Day, and Christmas
Day and (iv) other civil  holidays,  such as Veterans'  Day and Martin  Luther
King Day, when the Federal Reserve Banks or the financial markets are closed.

       For  valuing  securities  in  calculating  net asset  value,  the Money
Market  Funds  have  elected to use the  amortized  cost  method of  valuation
pursuant to Rule 2a-7 under the 1940 Act. The process of selecting  securities
is consistent  with the credit  quality and  diversification  requirements  of
Rule 2a-7.  The amortized  cost method  involves  valuing an instrument at its
cost initially and thereafter assuming a constant  amortization to maturity of
any  discount or premium,  regardless  of the impact of  fluctuating  interest
rates on the  market  value of the  instrument.  This  method  may  result  in
periods  during which value,  as  determined  by amortized  cost, is higher or
lower  than the price a Fund  would  receive  if it sold the  instrument.  The
value of securities in a Fund can be expected to vary  inversely  with changes
in prevailing interest rates.  Pursuant to Rule 2a-7, each of the Money Market
Funds will maintain a dollar-weighted  average portfolio maturity  appropriate
to maintaining a stable net asset value per share,  provided that no Fund will
purchase any security with a remaining  maturity of more than 397 days (except
as  described  below)  nor  maintain a  dollar-weighted  average  maturity  of
greater  than  90  days.  Repurchase  agreements  involving  the  purchase  of
securities with remaining  maturities of greater than 397 days will be treated
as having a  maturity  equal to the period  remaining  until the date on which
the  repurchase  is scheduled to occur or, where no date is specified  and the
agreement is subject to a demand feature,  the notice period applicable to the
demand to  repurchase  those  securities.  A  variable  rate  instrument,  the
principal  amount of which is scheduled to be repaid in more than 397 days but
which is  subject  to a demand  feature,  shall be deemed  to have a  maturity
equal to the longer of the period  remaining  until the next  readjustment  of
the interest rate or the period  remaining  until the principal  amount may be
recovered through exercise of the demand feature.  A floating rate instrument,
the principal  amount of which is scheduled to be repaid in more than 397 days
but which is subject to a demand  feature,  shall be deemed to have a maturity
equal to the period  remaining  until the  principal  amount can be  recovered
through demand.

       The  Trustees  have  undertaken  to  establish  procedures   reasonably
designed,  taking into account current market conditions and each of the Money
Market  Funds'  investment  objective,  to  stabilize  the net asset value per
share of each Money  Market  Fund for  purposes  of sales and  redemptions  at
$1.00.  These procedures  include a review by the Trustees,  at such intervals
as they deem  appropriate,  to determine the extent,  if any, to which the net
asset  value per share of each  Fund,  calculated  by using  available  market
quotations,  deviates  from  $1.00  per  share.  In the event  such  deviation
exceeds  one-half  of one  percent,  Rule  2a-7  requires  that  the  Trustees
promptly  consider what action,  if any, should be initiated.  If the Trustees
believe that the extent of any deviation  from a Fund's $1.00  amortized  cost
price per share may result in  material  dilution or other  unfair  results to
investors,  the  Trustees  will take such  steps as they deem  appropriate  to
eliminate or reduce to the extent reasonably  practicable any such dilution or
unfair results.  These steps may include selling  portfolio  instruments prior
to maturity, shortening the Fund's average portfolio maturity,  withholding or
reducing  dividends,  reducing  the  number  of a  Fund's  outstanding  shares
without  monetary  consideration,  or  utilizing  a net asset  value per share
based on available  market  quotations.  In addition,  if  Huntington  becomes
aware that any Second  Tier  Security or Unrated  Security  held by a Fund has
received  a rating  from any  NRSRO  below  the  NRSRO's  two  highest  rating
categories,  the  procedures  adopted by the Trustees in accordance  with Rule
2a-7 require  Huntington to dispose of such security unless (i) the sale would
cause the deviation  between the Fund's  amortized cost and  market-determined
values per share to exceed  0.40 of 1% (in which case the  Trustees  will meet
to  determine  what action to take) or (ii) the  Trustees  reassess the credit
quality of the  security  and  determine  that it is in the best  interests of
shareholders to retain the  investment.  In the event a Fund holds a defaulted
security,  a  security  that  has  ceased  to be an  Eligible  Security,  or a
security that has been  determined to no longer present  minimal credit risks,
Rule 2a-7  requires  the Fund to dispose of the  security  unless the Trustees
determine  that such action is not in the best interest of  shareholders.  The
Rule requires each Fund to limit its  investments to securities  determined to
present minimal credit risks based on factors in addition to ratings  assigned
a  security  by an NRSRO  and which  are at the time of  acquisition  Eligible
Securities.

       Rule 2a-7,  as amended,  defines  the terms  NRSRO,  Requisite  NRSROs,
Eligible Securities,  Rated Securities,  Unrated Securities,  Demand Features,
Guarantees,  Unconditional  Demand Features,  First Tier Securities and Second
Tier  Securities in  establishing  risk limiting  conditions  for money market
mutual funds.

       A summary of those definitions follows:

       "NRSRO" is any nationally  recognized  statistical rating  organization
as that term is used in the  Securities  Exchange Act of 1934,  that is not an
affiliated  person of the issuer,  guarantor or provider of credit support for
the instrument.  While the Appendix to the Statement of Additional Information
identifies each NRSRO,  examples include  Standard &  Poor's Ratings Group
("Standard &  Poor's"),  Moody's Investors Service,  Inc.  ("Moody's") and
Fitch Investors Service, Inc.

       "REQUISITE  NRSROS"  means (i) any two NRSROs that have issued a rating
with respect to a security or class of debt obligations of an issuer,  or (ii)
if only one NRSRO has issued a rating with  respect to such  security or class
of debt  obligations  of an issuer at the time the fund acquired the security,
that NRSRO.

       "ELIGIBLE  SECURITIES"  are  defined  as (i)  Rated  Securities  with a
remaining  maturity of 397 or less days and which have received  rating in one
of the two highest  rating  categories;  (ii) Unrated  Securities  that are of
comparable  equality,  provided  that an Unrated  Security  is not an Eligible
Security if the security  has received a long-term  rating from any NRSRO that
is not within the NRSRO's three highest  long-term rating  categories,  unless
the  security  has  received a  long-term  rating  from an NRSRO in one of the
three  highest  rating  categories,  and provided  that  certain  asset backed
securities  shall not be  Eligible  Securities  unless  they have  received  a
rating from an NRSRO;  and (iii)a security that is subject to a Demand Feature
or Guarantee  whether the Guarantee has received a rating from an NRSRO or the
Guarantee  is issued by a guarantor  that has  received a rating from an NRSRO
with respect to a class of debt  obligations  (or any debt  obligation  within
that class) that is comparable in priority and security to the  Guarantee,  or
another  institution,  has  undertaken  promptly  to notify  the holder of the
security in the event the Demand  Feature or  Guarantee  is  substituted  with
another Demand Feature or Guarantee.

       "RATED  SECURITIES"   include  (i)  securities  that  have  received  a
short-term  rating  from an NRSRO,  or have been  issued by an issuer that has
received a  short-term  rating  from an NRSRO with  respect to a class of debt
obligations (or any debt  obligation  within that class) that is comparable in
priority  and  security,  or (ii)  securities  that are subject to a Guarantee
that has received a short-term  rating from an NRSRO, or a Guarantee issued by
a guarantor  that has received a short-term  rating from an NRSRO with respect
to a class of debt  obligations  (or any debt  obligation  within  that class)
that is comparable in priority and a security  with the  Guarantee.  In either
case,  a security  is not a Rated  Security  if it is  subject to an  external
credit support  agreement that was no in effect when the security was assigned
its rating,  unless the security has received a short-term  rating  reflecting
the existence of the credit  support or the credit support itself has received
a short-term rating.

       "UNRATED SECURITIES" are any securities that are not Rated Securities.

       "DEMAND  FEATURE" is (i) a feature  permitting the holder of a security
to sell the security at an exercise price equal to the  approximate  amortized
cost of the security plus accrued  interest,  if any, at the time of exercise,
provided that such feature must be  exercisable  either at any time on no more
than 30 calendar  days' notice or at specified  intervals  not  exceeding  397
calendar  days and  upon no more  than 30  calendar  days'  notice;  or (ii) a
feature   permitting   the  holder  of   certain   asset   backed   securities
unconditionally  to receive principal and interest within 397 calendar days of
making demand.

       "GUARANTEE" is an  unconditional  obligation of a person other than the
issuer of the security to undertake to pay, upon  presentment by the holder of
the Guarantee (if required),  the principal amount of the underlying  security
plus  accrued  interest  when  due or  upon  default,  or,  in the  case of an
Unconditional  Demand  Feature,  an  obligation  that  entitles  the holder to
receive  upon  exercise  the  approximate  amortized  cost  of the  underlying
security or securities,  plus accrued interest, if any. A Guarantee includes a
letter of credit,  financial  guaranty (bond) insurance,  and an Unconditional
Demand Feature  (other than an  Unconditional  Demand Feature  provided by the
issuer of the security).

       "UNCONDITIONAL  DEMAND  FEATURE"  means a  Demand  Feature  that by its
terms  would be  readily  exercisable  in the event of a default in payment of
principal or interest on the underlying security or securities.

       "FIRST TIER  SECURITY"  means any (i) Rated Security which has received
the highest  short-term  rating by the Requisite NRSROs for debt  obligations,
(ii) any Unrated  Security that is of comparable  quality,  (iii) any security
issued by a registered  investment  company  that is a money  market fund,  or
(iv) certain government securities.

       "SECOND TIER SECURITY" means any Eligible  Security that is not a First
Tier Security.

       Each of the Funds relies on one or more pricing services  authorized by
the Board of Trustees  ("Authorized Pricing Services") to value its securities
in  calculating  net asset value.  Each of the Funds values its  securities in
calculating  net  asset  value  as  follows.  Equity  securities  traded  on a
national  securities  exchange or quoted on the NASDAQ  National Market System
are valued at their  last-reported  sale price on the  principal  exchange  or
reported  by  NASDAQ  or,  if there is no  reported  sale,  and in the case of
over-the-counter  securities  not  included  in  the  NASDAQ  National  Market
System,  at a bid price  estimated by an  Authorized  Pricing  Service.  Fixed
Income,  securities  traded  on a  national  securities  exchange  or  in  the
over-the-counter  market are valued at their  last-reported  sale price or, if
there is no reported sale, at a bid price  estimated by an Authorized  Pricing
Service.  For other debt securities,  including  zero-coupon  securities,  and
foreign securities, an Authorized Pricing Service will be used.

       U.S.  government  securities  held by the Mortgage  Securities Fund are
valued  at the mean  between  the  over-the-counter  bid and  asked  prices as
furnished by an Authorized Pricing Service.

       Short-term  investments with remaining maturities of 60 days or less at
the time of  purchase  are  valued at  amortized  cost.  Investments  in other
open-end investment companies are valued at net asset value.

       For  securities  which  cannot  be  priced  by  an  Authorized  Pricing
Service,  the Board of Trustees has  authorized  the Trust's  record keeper to
seek a good faith  fair  value  determination  from a  broker-dealer  or other
financial  intermediary.  The Board of Trustees has also established a Pricing
Committee  which will determine in good faith the fair valuation of a security
in the event that  market  quotations  are not readily  available.  In certain
circumstances,  in accordance with the Trust's Pricing Procedures, the Pricing
Committee may seek a good faith fair value  determination  where an Authorized
Pricing Service has provided a price.

       If any  securities  held by a Fund are  restricted as to resale,  their
fair  value is  generally  determined  as the  amount  which  the  Fund  could
reasonably  expect to realize from an orderly  disposition of such  securities
over a reasonable  period of time.  The  valuation  procedures  applied in any
specific   instance   are   likely  to  vary  from  case  to  case.   However,
consideration  is generally given to the financial  position of the issuer and
other  fundamental  analytical  data  relating  to the  investment  and to the
nature of the  restrictions  on disposition  of the securities  (including any
registration  expenses that might be borne by the Fund in connection with such
disposition).  In addition,  specific  factors are also generally  considered,
such as the cost of the  investment,  the  market  value  of any  unrestricted
securities  of the same class (both at the time of purchase and at the time of
valuation),  the size of the holding, the prices of any recent transactions or
offers with respect to such securities,  and any available  analysts'  reports
regarding the issuer.

       Generally,  trading in certain securities (such as foreign  securities)
is  substantially  completed  each day at various  times prior to the close of
the  New  York  Stock  Exchange.  The  values  of  these  securities  used  in
determining  the net asset value of the Fund's  shares are computed as of such
times.  Also,  because of the amount of time  required  to collect and process
trading  information as to large numbers of securities  issues,  the values of
certain securities (such as convertible bonds and U.S. Government  securities)
are determined based on market quotations  collected earlier in the day at the
latest  practicable  time  prior to the close of the  Exchange.  Occasionally,
events  affecting  the value of such  securities  may occur between such times
and the close of the Exchange  which will not be reflected in the  computation
of the Fund's net asset value.  If events  materially  affecting  the value of
such  securities  occur  during such  period,  then these  securities  will be
valued at their fair value, in the manner described above.

       The  proceeds  received  by each  Fund  for  each  issue or sale of its
shares, and all income, earnings,  profits, and proceeds thereof, subject only
to the rights of creditors,  will be specifically  allocated to such Fund, and
constitute the underlying  assets of that Fund. The underlying  assets of each
Fund will be segregated  on the Trust's books of account,  and will be charged
with the  liabilities  in respect of such Fund and with a share of the general
liabilities  of the Trust.  Expenses with respect to any two or more Funds are
to be allocated in proportion to the net asset values of the respective  Funds
except where allocations of direct expenses can otherwise be fairly made.

                                        TAXES

Federal Income Taxation

       It is  intended  that  each  Fund  qualify  each  year  as a  regulated
investment  company  under  Subchapter M of the Code.  In order to qualify for
the special tax treatment  accorded regulated  investment  companies and their
shareholders, a Fund must, among other things:

       (a)  derive at least 90% of its gross income from dividends,  interest,
            payments with respect to certain  securities loans, and gains from
            the sale or other  disposition  of stock,  securities  and foreign
            currencies,  or other income  (including  but not limited to gains
            from options,  futures, or forward contracts) derived with respect
            to its  business  of  investing  in  such  stock,  securities,  or
            currencies;

       (b)  distribute  with  respect to each taxable year at least 90% of the
            sum of its  "investment  company  taxable income" (as that term is
            defined  in the Code) and its  tax-exempt  interest  income  (less
            deductions attributable to that income) for such year, if any; and

       (c)  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 or cash items  (including  receivables),  U.S.
            Government  securities,  securities of other regulated  investment
            companies,  and other  securities  limited  in  respect of any one
            issuer to a value not  greater  than 5% of the value of the Fund's
            total assets and 10% of the outstanding  voting securities of such
            issuer,  and (ii) not more than 25% of the value of its  assets is
            invested  in  the  securities   (other  than  those  of  the  U.S.
            Government  or other  regulated  investment  companies) of any one
            issuer  or of two or more  issuers  which  the Fund  controls  and
            which are  engaged  in the same,  similar,  or  related  trades or
            businesses.

       If a Fund qualifies as a regulated  investment company that is accorded
special tax  treatment,  the Fund will not be subject to federal income tax on
income paid to its  shareholders in the form of dividends  (including  capital
gain dividends).

       If a Fund fails to qualify as a regulated  investment  company accorded
special tax  treatment in any taxable  year,  the Fund would be subject to tax
on its income at corporate  rates,  and all  distributions  from  earnings and
profits,   including  any  distribution  of  net  tax-exempt  income  and  net
long-term capital gains,  would be taxable to shareholders as ordinary income.
In addition,  the Fund could be required to recognize  net  unrealized  gains,
pay substantial taxes and interest, and make substantial  distributions before
requalifying as a regulated  investment  company that is accorded  special tax
treatment.

       If a Fund fails to distribute in a calendar year  substantially  all of
its  ordinary  income for such year and  substantially  all of its net capital
gains for the year ending  October 31 (or later if the Fund is permitted so to
elect and so elects),  plus any retained  amount from the prior year, the Fund
will be  subject  to a 4% excise tax on the  under-distributed  amounts.  Each
Fund intends  generally to make  distributions  sufficient to avoid imposition
of the 4% excise tax.

       Fund   distributions.   Distributions   from   a   Fund   (other   than
exempt-interest   dividends,   as   discussed   below)   will  be  taxable  to
shareholders  as  ordinary  income  to the  extent  derived  from  the  Fund's
investment  income and net  short-term  gains.  Distributions  of net  capital
gains  (that is, the excess of net gains from  capital  assets  held more than
one year over net losses from capital  assets held for not more than one year)
will be taxable to shareholders as such,  regardless of how long a shareholder
has held the shares in a Fund.

       Due to certain of a Fund's  hedging  and other  investment  activities,
the net investment income  calculated for accounting  purposes and distributed
to shareholders may in certain  circumstances  exceed or be less than a Fund's
net tax exempt and taxable income. If a Fund distributes  amounts in excess of
the  Fund's  "earnings  and  profits"  (which  provide a  measure  of a Fund's
dividend   paying   capacity  for  tax  purposes),   such   distributions   to
shareholders  will be  treated  as a return  of  capital  to the  extent  of a
shareholder's  basis in his or her  shares,  and  thereafter  as gain from the
sale or exchange of a capital  asset.  A return of capital is not taxable to a
shareholder  and has the effect of  reducing  the  shareholder's  basis in the
relevant shares.  However,  because a Fund's expenses  attributable to earning
tax exempt  income do not reduce the Fund's  current  earnings and profits,  a
portion of any  distribution  in excess of a Fund's net tax exempt and taxable
income may be considered  paid out of the Fund's  earnings and profits and may
therefore  be  treated  as  a  taxable  dividend  (even  though  that  portion
economically represents a return of the Fund's capital).

       Exempt-interest   dividends.   A  Fund   will  be   qualified   to  pay
exempt-interest  dividends to its  shareholders  only if, at the close of each
quarter of the Fund's  taxable  year,  at least 50% of the total  value of the
Fund's  assets  consists of  obligations  the interest on which is exempt from
federal  income  tax.  Distributions  that the  Fund  properly  designates  as
exempt-interest   dividends   are   treated  as   interest   excludable   from
shareholders'  gross income for federal income tax purposes but may be taxable
for federal  alternative minimum tax purposes and for state and local purposes
(see below).  If a Fund  intends to pay only  exempt-interest  dividends,  the
Fund may be limited in its ability to engage in such taxable  transactions  as
forward  commitments,  repurchase  agreements,  financial futures, and options
contracts on financial  futures,  tax-exempt  bond indices,  and other assets.
Part or all of the interest on indebtedness,  if any, incurred or continued by
a  shareholder  to purchase or carry  shares of a Fund paying  exempt-interest
dividends is not  deductible.  The portion of interest that is not  deductible
is  equal  to  the  total  interest  paid  or  accrued  on  the  indebtedness,
multiplied by the percentage of the Fund's total  distributions (not including
distributions  from net long-term  capital gains) paid to the shareholder that
are  exempt-interest  dividends.  Under  rules  used by the  Internal  Revenue
Service to determine when borrowed  funds are considered  used for the purpose
of purchasing  or carrying  particular  assets,  the purchase of shares may be
considered  to have been made with  borrowed  funds even though such funds are
not directly traceable to the purchase of shares. In general,  exempt-interest
dividends,  if any,  attributable  to  interest  received  on certain  private
activity  bonds  and  certain   industrial   development  bonds  will  not  be
tax-exempt to any shareholders  who are "substantial  users" of the facilities
financed by such bonds or who are "related  persons" of such substantial users
(within  the  meaning of Section  147(a) of the Code).  Recipients  of certain
Social  Security  and  Railroad  Retirement  benefits  may  have to take  into
account exempt-interest  dividends from the Fund in determining the taxability
of such benefits.  Shareholders should consult their own tax adviser regarding
the  potential  effect on them (if any) of any  investment in the Fund. A Fund
which is  qualified to pay  exempt-interest  dividends  will inform  investors
within 60 days of the Fund's  fiscal year end of the  percentage of its income
distributions  designated as tax-exempt.  The percentage is applied  uniformly
to all distributions made during the year.

       Hedging  transactions.  Certain  investment and hedging activities of a
Fund,  including  transactions  in  options,  futures  contracts,   straddles,
forward contracts,  foreign currencies,  foreign securities,  or other similar
transactions,  will be subject to special tax rules.  In a given  case,  these
rules  may  accelerate  income to the Fund,  defer  losses to the Fund,  cause
adjustments  in  the  holding  periods  of  the  Fund's  assets,   or  convert
short-term  capital losses into long-term  capital  losses.  These rules could
therefore  affect the amount,  timing,  and character of the Fund's income and
distributions   to   shareholders.   Income   earned  as  a  result  of  these
transactions  would,  in general,  not be eligible for the dividends  received
deduction or for treatment as  exempt-interest  dividends when  distributed to
shareholders.  Each  Fund  will  endeavor  to  make  any  available  elections
pertaining  to  such  transactions  in a  manner  believed  to be in the  best
interests of the Fund.

       Foreign    currency-denominated    securities   and   related   hedging
transactions.  A Fund's  transactions  in  foreign  currency-denominated  debt
securities,  certain foreign currency options,  futures contracts, and forward
contracts  may give rise to ordinary  income or loss to the extent such income
or loss  results  from  fluctuations  in the  value  of the  foreign  currency
concerned.

       Foreign  Tax  Credit.  If more than 50% of a Fund's  assets at year end
consists  of the  stock or  securities  in  foreign  corporations,  that  Fund
intends to qualify for and make the election  permitted  under  Section 853 of
the Code so that  shareholders  will be able to claim a credit or deduction on
their  income tax  returns  for,  and will be required to treat as part of the
amount  distributed to them, their pro rata portion of qualified taxes paid by
the Fund to foreign  countries  (which  taxes relate  primarily to  investment
income).  Shareholders  who do not itemize on their federal income tax returns
may claim a credit (but no deduction) for such foreign taxes. A  shareholder's
ability  to claim  such a  foreign  tax  credit  will be  subject  to  certain
limitations  imposed by the Code,  as a result of which  shareholders  may not
get a full credit or deduction  for the amount of foreign taxes so paid by the
Fund.  A  Fund's   investments  in  foreign   securities  may  be  subject  to
withholding taxes at the source on dividends or interest payments.

       Sale or  redemption  of shares.  The sale,  exchange or redemption of a
Fund's  shares may give rise to a gain or loss.  In general,  any gain or loss
realized  upon a taxable  disposition  of shares will be treated as  long-term
capital  gain or loss if the  shares  have been held for more than 12  months.
Otherwise  the gain or loss on the sale,  exchange or  redemption  of a Fund's
shares  will be treated as  short-term  capital  gain or loss.  However,  if a
shareholder  sells  shares at a loss within six months of  purchase,  any loss
will be  disallowed  for  Federal  income  tax  purposes  to the extent of any
exempt-interest  dividends received on such shares. In addition, any loss (not
already  disallowed  as provided in the  preceding  sentence)  realized upon a
taxable  disposition  of shares held for six months or less will be treated as
long-term,  rather than  short-term,  to the extent of any  long-term  capital
gain  distributions  received by the  shareholder  with respect to the shares.
All or a portion of any loss realized upon a taxable  disposition  of a Fund's
shares  will be  disallowed  if other  shares of the same  Fund are  purchased
within 30 days before or after the  disposition.  In such a case, the basis of
the newly purchased shares will be adjusted to reflect the disallowed loss.

      Backup  Withholding.  In general,  a Fund is  required  to withhold  and
remit to the U.S.  Treasury  a  percentage  of the  proceeds  of share  sales,
exchanges,   or   redemptions   made  by  and  taxable   dividends  and  other
distributions  paid  to any  individual  shareholder  who  fails  to  properly
furnish the Fund with a correct taxpayer  identification number (TIN), who has
under- reported  dividend or interest  income,  or who fails to certify to the
Fund that he or she is not subject to such  withholding.  Pursuant to recently
enacted tax legislation,  the backup  withholding tax rate will be (i) 30% for
amounts  paid during 2002 and 2003,  (ii) 29% for amounts paid during 2004 and
2005,  and  (iii)  28%  for  amounts  paid  during  2006  through  2010.  This
legislation  will  expire  and the  backup  withholding  rate  will be 31% for
amounts paid after December 31, 2010,  unless  Congress enacts tax legislation
providing otherwise.

      The Service recently  revised its regulations  affecting the application
to foreign  investors of the back-up  withholding  and  withholding  tax rules
described   above.  In  some   circumstances,   the  new  rules  increase  the
certification  and filing  requirements  imposed on foreign investors in order
to  qualify  for  exemption  from the  back-up  withholding  tax rates and for
reduced withholding tax rates under income tax treaties.  Foreign investors in
the Fund should  consult  their tax  advisers  with  respect to the  potential
application of these new regulations.

       The  foregoing  is only a  summary  of some  of the  important  federal
income tax considerations  generally  affecting purchases of shares of a Fund.
No attempt is made to present a detailed  explanation  of the  federal  income
tax  treatment of each Fund or its  shareholders,  and this  discussion is not
intended as a substitute for careful tax planning. Accordingly,  investors are
urged to consult their tax advisers  with specific  reference to their own tax
situation.


State Taxation

       Florida.  Florida does not impose an income tax on  individuals.  Thus,
individual  shareholders  of the  Florida  Tax-Free  Money  Fund  will  not be
subject to any Florida state or local income taxes on  distributions  received
from the Florida Tax-Free Money Fund.

       Florida does impose a state  income tax on the income of  corporations,
limited liability  companies (that are subject to federal income taxation) and
certain trusts (excluding probate and testamentary  trusts), that is allocated
or apportioned  to Florida.  For those types of  shareholders,  in determining
income   subject  to  Florida   corporate   income  tax,   Florida   generally
"piggy-backs"  federal taxable income  concepts,  subject to adjustments  that
are applicable to all  corporations  and some  adjustments that are applicable
to certain classes of  corporations.  In regard to the Florida  Tax-Free Money
Fund, the most  significant  adjustment is for interest  income from state and
local  bonds that is exempt from tax under  Section 103 of the Code.  Provided
that the Florida  Tax-Free  Money Fund  qualifies  as a  regulated  investment
company under the Code and complies with the requirement  that at least 50% of
the value of its assets at the close of each  quarter of its  taxable  year be
invested in state,  municipal  or other  obligations  the interest on which is
exempt from tax under Section 103 of the Code,  corporate  shareholders of the
Florida  Tax-Free  Money Fund may  receive  Section 103  interest  income from
Florida Tax-Free Money Fund  distributions.  While Section 103 interest income
is generally excluded from taxable income for federal income tax purposes,  it
is added back to taxable  income for  Florida  corporate  income tax  purposes
(only 40% of such  income is added  back for  corporate  taxpayers  subject to
Florida  alternative  minimum tax).  Consequently,  the portion of the Section
103 interest income (or 40% of that amount for corporate  taxpayers subject to
the Florida  alternative minimum tax) allocated or apportioned to Florida of a
corporate  Florida  Tax-Free  Money  Fund  shareholder  arising  from  Florida
Tax-Free  Money Fund  distributions  is subject  to Florida  corporate  income
taxes.  Other  distributions from the Florida Tax-Free Money Fund to corporate
shareholders,  to the extent allocated or apportioned to Florida,  may also be
subject to Florida income tax.

       Provided  that on  January  1 of a given  year at least  90% of the net
asset value of the portfolio of assets of the Florida  Tax-Free  Money Fund is
comprised  of  notes,  bonds,  and  other  obligations  issued by the State of
Florida or its municipalities,  counties and other taxing districts,  the U.S.
Government and its agencies,  Puerto Rico,  Guam and the Virgin  Islands,  and
other  investments  exempt from  Florida  intangible  personal  property  tax,
shares of the  Florida  Tax-Free  Money  Fund will not be  subject  to Florida
intangible  personal  property  taxes for that year.  If the Florida  Tax-Free
Money Fund fails to meet this 90% test,  then the entire  value of the Florida
Tax-Free Money Fund shares (except for that portion of the value  attributable
to U.S.  government  obligations)  will be subject to the  Florida  intangible
personal property tax.

       Shareholders  of the Florida  Tax-Free  Money Fund should consult their
tax  advisers  about  other  state  and  local  tax   consequences   of  their
investments in the Florida Tax-Free Money Fund.

       Michigan.  Provided  that the  Michigan  Tax-Free  Fund  qualifies as a
regulated  investment company under the Code and complies with the requirement
that at least 50% of the value of its  assets at the close of each  quarter of
its taxable  year be invested in state,  municipal  or other  obligations  the
interest  on  which  is  exempt  from  tax  under  Section  103 of  the  Code,
individual  shareholders  of the Michigan  Tax-Free  Fund residing in Michigan
will not be subject to Michigan  personal  income tax or personal income taxes
imposed by cities in Michigan,  and corporate shareholders will not be subject
to the  Michigan  single  business  tax, on  distributions  received  from the
Michigan  Tax-Free Fund to the extent such  distributions  are attributable to
interest  on  tax-exempt   obligations   of  the  State  of  Michigan  or  any
municipality,  political subdivision or governmental agency or instrumentality
thereof  or on  obligations  issued by the  Governments  of Puerto  Rico,  the
Virgin Islands and Guam. Other  distributions from the Michigan Tax-Free Fund,
including  those  related to long-term  and  short-term  capital  gains,  will
generally  not be  exempt  from the  Michigan  personal  income  tax or single
business tax.  Shareholders of the Michigan Tax-Free Fund should consult their
tax  advisers  about  other  state  and  local  tax   consequences   of  their
investments in the Michigan Tax-Free Fund.

       Ohio. Under current Ohio law,  individuals and estates that are subject
to Ohio personal  income tax or municipal or school  district  income taxes in
Ohio will not be  subject  to such  taxes on  distributions  with  respect  to
shares of the Ohio  Municipal  Money  Market  Fund or the Ohio  Tax-Free  Fund
("Distributions")   to  the  extent  that  such   Distributions  are  properly
attributable  to interest on  obligations  of the State of Ohio,  political or
governmental  subdivisions thereof as defined in Section 5709.76(D)(10) of the
Ohio  Revised  Code,  nonprofit   corporations   authorized  to  issue  public
securities  for  or  on  behalf  of  Ohio  or a  subdivision  or  agencies  or
instrumentalities of Ohio or its political  subdivisions ("Ohio Obligations").
Corporations  that are subject to the Ohio corporation  franchise tax will not
have to include  Distributions  in their tax base for purposes of  calculating
the Ohio  corporation  franchise  on the net income  basis to the extent  that
such  Distributions  either constitute  exempt-interest  dividends for federal
income  tax  purposes  or  are  properly  attributable  to  interest  on  Ohio
Obligations.  However,  shares of the Ohio Municipal Money Market Fund and the
Ohio Tax Free Fund will be included in a  corporation's  tax base for purposes
of calculating the Ohio corporation franchise tax on the net worth basis.

       Distributions  that  consist of interest on  obligations  of the United
States or its territories or possessions or of any authority,  commission,  or
instrumentality of the United States ("Territorial  Obligations") the interest
on which is exempt  from  state  income  taxes  under  the laws of the  United
States are exempt from the Ohio personal  income tax, and municipal and school
district  income  taxes in Ohio.  In  addition,  net  interest on  Territorial
Obligations  is  excluded  from the net  income  base of the Ohio  corporation
franchise  tax to the extent such  interest is excluded  from gross income for
federal income tax purposes.

       Distributions  properly attributable to profit on the sale, exchange or
other  disposition  of  Ohio  Obligations  will  not be  subject  to the  Ohio
personal  income tax, or municipal or school district income taxes in Ohio and
will not be included in the net income base of the Ohio corporation  franchise
tax. Distributions  attributable to other sources generally will not be exempt
from the Ohio personal  income tax,  municipal or school district income taxes
in Ohio or the net income base of the Ohio corporation franchise tax.

       The Ohio  Municipal  Money Market Fund and the Ohio  Tax-Free  Fund are
not subject to the Ohio  personal  income tax or school  district or municipal
income  taxes  in Ohio.  The Ohio  Municipal  Money  Market  Fund and the Ohio
Tax-Free  Fund are not subject to the Ohio  corporation  franchise  tax or the
Ohio  dealers in  intangibles  tax,  provided  that,  if there is a sufficient
nexus  between the State of Ohio and such  entity that would  enable the State
to tax such  entity,  the Fund  timely  files the annual  report  required  by
Section  5733.09  of the Ohio  Revised  Code.  The Ohio Tax  Commissioner  has
waived this annual filing  requirement for each tax year since 1990, the first
tax year to which such requirement applied.

       This  discussion  of Ohio taxes assumes that the Ohio  Municipal  Money
Market  Fund and the Ohio  Tax-Free  Fund will each  continue  to qualify as a
regulated  investment  company under the Internal Revenue Code and that at all
times at least  50% of the  value of the  total  assets  of each of the  Funds
consists of Ohio  Obligations or similar  obligations of other states or their
subdivisions.

       Shareholders  of the  Ohio  Municipal  Money  Market  Fund and the Ohio
Tax-Free Fund should  consult  their tax advisers  about other state and local
tax consequences of their  investments in the Ohio Municipal Money Market Fund
and the Ohio Tax-Free Fund.

DIVIDENDS AND DISTRIBUTIONS

Money Market Funds

       The net investment  income of each class of shares of each Money Market
Fund is  determined as of 4:00 p.m.  (Eastern  Time) each Business Day. All of
the net  investment  income  so  determined  normally  will be  declared  as a
dividend  daily to  shareholders  of record  of each  class as of the close of
business and prior to the  determination of net asset value.  However,  if you
purchase shares by check, ACH or SIP, you will begin earning  dividends on the
next business day after your order has been received by the Trust.  Unless the
Business  Day before a weekend  or  holiday  is the last day of an  accounting
period,  the  dividend  declared on that day will include an amount in respect
of the Fund's  income for the  subsequent  non-business  day or days. No daily
dividend  will  include  any amount of net  income in respect of a  subsequent
semiannual  accounting  period.  Dividends  declared  during any month will be
invested as of the close of business  on the last  calendar  day of that month
(or the next  Business  Day  after the last  calendar  day of the month if the
last calendar day of the month is a non-business  day) in additional shares of
the same class of the Fund at the net asset value per share,  normally  $1.00,
determined  as of the close of  business  on that day,  unless  payment of the
dividend in cash has been requested.

       Net income of a class of shares of a Money Market Fund  consists of all
interest income accrued on portfolio  assets less all expenses of the Fund and
the class and amortized market premium.  Amortized market discount is included
in interest  income.  None of the Money Market Funds  anticipates that it will
normally  realize any  long-term  capital  gains with respect to its portfolio
securities.

       Normally  each  class of shares of the Money  Market  Funds will have a
positive net income at the time of each determination  thereof. Net income may
be negative if an unexpected liability must be accrued or a loss realized.  If
the net  income  of a class  or  classes  of  shares  of a Money  Market  Fund
determined at any time is a negative amount,  the net asset value per share of
such class or classes  will be reduced  below $1.00  unless one or more of the
following steps, for which the Trustees have authority,  are taken: (1) reduce
the number of shares in each shareholder's  account of the applicable class or
classes,  (2) offset  each  shareholder's  pro rata  portion of  negative  net
income against the  shareholder's  accrued  dividend account or against future
dividends  with  regard to the  applicable  class or  classes,  or (3) combine
these  methods in order to seek to obtain the net asset value per share of the
applicable  class or classes at $1.00.  The Trustees may endeavor to restore a
Fund's net asset value per share to $1.00 by not declaring  dividends from net
income on  subsequent  days until  restoration,  with the result  that the net
asset  value per share  will  increase  to the extent of  positive  net income
which is not declared as a dividend.

       Should a Money  Market Fund incur or  anticipate,  with  respect to its
portfolio,  any unusual or unexpected  significant expense or loss which would
affect  disproportionately  the Fund's  income for a  particular  period,  the
Trustees would at that time consider  whether to adhere to the dividend policy
described above or to revise it in light of the then prevailing  circumstances
in order to ameliorate,  to the extent possible,  the disproportionate  effect
of such  expense  or loss on then  existing  shareholders.  Such  expenses  or
losses may nevertheless  result in a shareholder's  receiving no dividends for
the period  during which the shares are held and receiving  upon  redemption a
price per share lower than that which was paid.

Other Funds

<R>

       Each of the Funds,  other than the Money Market Funds, will declare and
distribute  dividends from net investment  income of each class of shares,  if
any, according to the following schedule:

            International Equity Fund                    Annually
            Mid Corp America Fund                        Annually
            New Economy Fund                             Annually
            Rotating Index Fund                          Annually
            Fixed Income Securities Fund                    Daily
            Intermediate Government Income Fund             Daily

            Income Equity Fund                          Quarterly

The Funds will  distribute  its net realized  capital  gains,  with respect to
each class of shares, if any, at least annually.

</R>

                           PERFORMANCE INFORMATION

       From time to time the Trust may  advertise  the  performance  of one or
more of the Funds.  All data is based on past  performance and is not intended
to  indicate  future  results.  Performance  of Trust  Shares,  as compared to
Investment A Shares or Investment B Shares,  will  normally be higher  because
Investment  A Shares  and  Investment  B Shares are  subject  to  distribution
(12b-1) fees.

Money Market Funds

<R>

       Generally,  the Money Market Funds will advertise  seven-day yields and
seven-day effective yields. In addition,  the Ohio Municipal Money Market Fund
and the Florida Tax-Free Money Fund may also advertise tax-equivalent yields.

       The yield for each class of shares of a Money  Market  Fund is computed
by determining  the percentage net change,  excluding  capital changes and any
income  other  than  investment   income,  in  the  value  of  a  hypothetical
pre-existing  account  having a balance of one share at the  beginning  of the
period,  subtracting  a charge  reflecting  any  deductions  from  shareholder
accounts,  and  dividing  the  difference  by the value of the  account at the
beginning  of the base  period  to obtain  the base  period  return,  and then
multiplying the base period return by 365/7 (or approximately 52 weeks).

       The  effective  yield for each class of shares of a Fund  represents  a
compounding  of the base period return by adding 1, raising the sum to a power
equal to 365/7, and subtracting 1 from the result,  according to the following
formula:

            Effective Yield = [(Base Period Return +1) 365/7 ] -1

       Tax-equivalent  yield is computed  by dividing  the portion of a Fund's
yield that is  tax-exempt  by 1 minus a stated  income tax rate and adding the
quotient to that portion, if any, of the Fund's yield that is not tax-exempt.

       Based on the  seven-day  period  ended  December  31,  2001 (the  "base
period"),  the yield and  effective  yield of the Trust  Shares of each of the
Money Market Funds were as follows:

      Fund-Trust Shares                                    Yield     Effective Yield

      Money Market Fund...............................      1.22%        1.23%
      Ohio Municipal Money Market Fund................      1.18%        1.19%
      Florida Tax-Free Money Fund.....................      0.92%        0.93%
      U.S. Treasury Money Market Fund.................      1.20%        1.20%

       Based on the  seven-day  period  ended  December  31,  2001 (the  "base
period"),  the yield and effective  yield of the Investment A, B and Interfund
Shares of the Money Market Funds listed below were as follows:

      Fund-Investment A Shares                               Yield    Effective Yield

      Money Market Fund...............................       0.97%       0.97%
      Ohio Municipal Money Market Fund................       0.93%       0.93%
      Florida Tax-Free Money Fund.....................       0.67%       0.68%
      U.S. Treasury Money Market Fund.................       0.95%       0.95%

      Money Market B Shares                                  Yield    Effective Yield

      Money Market B Shares...........................       0.47%       0.47%

      Money Market Interfund Shares                          Yield    Effective Yield

      Money Market Interfund Shares...................       1.47%       1.48%

       The  tax-equivalent  yield for Trust Shares of the Ohio Municipal Money
Market Fund for the  seven-day  period  ended  December  31,  2001,  was 2.23%
(assuming  a 39.6%  federal  income  tax  bracket  and a 7.5% Ohio  income tax
bracket).

       The tax-equivalent  yield for Investment A Shares of the Ohio Municipal
Money Market Fund for the seven-day  period ended December 31, 2001, was 1.76%
(assuming  a 39.6%  federal  income  tax  bracket  and a 7.5% Ohio  income tax
bracket).

       The  tax-equivalent  yield for Trust  Shares  of the  Florida  Tax-Free
Money  Fund for the  seven-day  period  ended  December  31,  2001,  was 1.52%
(assuming a 39.6% federal income tax bracket).

       The  tax-equivalent  yield  for  Investment  A  Shares  of the  Florida
Tax-Free  Money Fund for the  seven-day  period ended  December 31, 2001,  was
1.11% (assuming a 39.6% federal income tax bracket).



Other Funds

<R>

       Generally,  the Equity and Income Funds will  advertise  average annual
total returns.  In addition,  the Ohio Tax-Free Fund and the Michigan Tax-Free
Fund may advertise thirty-day tax-equivalent yields.

                                        ERV 1
                        Average Annual Return = ( ) n - 1
                                          P

       In accordance with SEC guidelines,  the average annual total return for
each class of shares is calculated  according to the following formula:  where
p = a hypothetical  initial of $1,000;  n = number of years;  and ERV = ending
redeemable  value of the hypothetical  $1,000  investment after the investment
period.

       In accordance with SEC  guidelines,  the yield for each class of shares
of an Equity or Income Fund is computed by dividing the net investment  income
per share earned during the period by the maximum  offering price per share on
the last day of the period, according to the following formula:

                                        a - b
                           Yield = 2[ (      +1 ) (6) +1]
                                         cd

Where a =  dividends  and  interest  earned  during the  period;  b = expenses
accrued for the period (net of  reimbursements);  c = the average daily number
of shares  outstanding  during  the  period  that  were  entitled  to  receive
dividends;  and d = the  maximum  offering  price per share on the last day of
the period.

       In accordance with SEC guidelines,  the  tax-equivalent  yield for each
class of the Equity and Income  Funds is computed  by dividing  the portion of
the yield that is  tax-exempt  by 1 minus a stated  income tax rate and adding
the quotient to that portion, if any, of the yield that is not tax-exempt.

The average  annual total  returns for  Investment  A Shares and  Investment B
Shares  of each of the  following  Funds  (including  the  effect of the sales
load) for the  one-year,  five-year  and ten-year  periods and for the life of
the respective Fund through December 31, 2001, were as follows:

The maximum  marginal  tax rate for each bracket was used in  calculating  the
taxable yield equivalent.  Furthermore,  additional state and local taxes paid
on  comparable   taxable   investments  were  not  used  to  increase  federal
deductions.

The charts above are for  illustrative  purposes only. They are not indicators
of past or future performance.

      *The income  brackets  applicable to the state of Ohio do not correspond
to the Federal taxable income brackets. In addition,  Ohio taxable income will
likely be different  than  Federal  taxable  income  because it is computed by
reference to Federal  adjusted  gross  income (AGI) with  specifically-defined
Ohio  modifications  and  exemptions,  and  does  not  consider  many  of  the
deductions  allowed from Federal AGI in computing  Federal taxable income.  No
other  state tax  credits,  exemptions,  or local  taxes  have been taken into
account in arriving at the  combined  marginal tax rate.  In 1999,  due to the
state having surplus revenue,  a 3.627% across the board reduction in the Ohio
income tax rates for 1999 only was  effected  pursuant  to Ohio  Revised  Code
sections  131.44 and 5747.02.  It is not yet known  whether a reduction in the
Ohio  income tax rates  will occur in 2000.  A  reduction  in Ohio  income tax
rates,  such at the 1999  reduction,  has the effect of reducing the after-tax
advantage of Ohio tax-exempt  securities relative to taxable  securities.  The
income  amount  shown is income  subject  to  federal  income  tax  reduced by
adjustments  to income,  exemptions,  and itemized  deductions  (including the
deduction  for state and local income  taxes).  If the  standard  deduction is
taken for Federal income tax purposes,  the taxable  equivalent yield required
to equal a  specified  tax-exempt  yield is at least as great as that shown in
the table.  It is assumed that the investor is not subject to the  alternative
minimum  tax.  Where  applicable,  investors  should  consider  the benefit of
certain  itemized  deductions  and the  benefit  of  personal  exemptions  are
limited in the case of higher income  individuals.  For 2000,  taxpayers  with
AGI in excess of a threshold amount of  approximately  $128,950 are subject to
an overall  limitation on certain itemized  deductions,  requiring a reduction
in such  deductions  equal to the  lesser  of (i) 3% of AGI in  excess  of the
threshold  amount  or  (ii)  80% of the  amount  of such  itemized  deductions
otherwise  allocable.  The benefit of each personal exemption is phased out at
the rate of two  percentage  points for each $2,800 (or  fraction  thereof) of
AGI in the phase-out zone. For single  taxpayers,  the range of AGI comprising
the  phase-out  zone for 2000 is estimated to be from $128,950 to $251,450 and
for married  taxpayers  filling a joint return from $193,400 to $315,900.  The
Federal tax brackets,  the threshold amounts at which itemized  deductions are
subject to reduction,  and the range over which personal exemptions are phased
out will be further adjusted for inflation each year after 2000.

Note:  The State of Florida levies a tax on intangible personal property,
such as stocks, bonds and other evidences of indebtedness.  For Individual
Filers the first $250,000 of total taxable assets are exempt.  Assets above
$250,000 are taxed at $1.00 per $1,000 of value as of value as of January
1st.  For Joint Filers the first $500,000 of total taxable assets are
exempt.  Assets above $500,000 are taxed at $1.00 per $1,000 of value as of
January 1st.  Because this is a tax on the value of an investment as opposed
to the income generated therefrom, it becomes more difficult to include its
effect in an income-derived equivalent yield table.  In an effort to simplify
your analysis, this table has been prepared assuming an across-the-board 10
basis point incremental benefit resulting from the avoidance of this tax.

The maximum  marginal  tax rate for each bracket was used in  calculating  the
taxable yield equivalent.

Long -Term Debt  Ratings  (may be assigned,  for  example,  to  corporate  and
municipal bonds)

Description  of  the  long-term  debt  ratings  by  Moody's  (Moody's  applies
numerical  modifiers  (1,2,  and 3) in each rating  category  to indicate  the
security's ranking within the category):

Aaa         Bonds  which are rated Aaa are  judged to be of the best  quality.
            They  carry  the  smallest  degree  of  investment  risk  and  are
            generally  referred  to as "gilt  edged."  Interest  payments  are
            protected  by a large or by an  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.

Aa          Bonds  which are rated Aa are judged to be of high  quality by all
            standards.  Together  with the Aaa group  they  comprise  what are
            generally  known as  high-grade  bonds.  They are rated lower than
            the best bonds because  margins of protection  may not be as large
            as in Aaa securities or fluctuation of protective  elements may be
            of greater  amplitude or there may be other elements present which
            make  the  long-term  risk  appear  somewhat  larger  than the Aaa
            securities.

A           Bonds  which  are  rated  A  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 some time in the future.

Baa         Bonds  which  are  rated  Baa  are   considered  as   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.

Ba          Bonds which are rated Ba are judged to have speculative  elements;
            their  future  cannot be  considered  as  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.

B           Bonds  which are rated B  generally  lack  characteristics  of the
            desirable   investment.   Assurance  of  interest  and   principal
            payments or of  maintenance  of other terms of the  contract  over
            any long period of time may be small.

Caa         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.

Ca          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.

C           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.

Description  of the  long-term  debt  ratings by S&P  (S&P may apply a
plus (+) or minus (-) to a particular  rating  classification to show relative
standing within that classification):

AAA         An  obligation  rated  `AAA' has the  highest  rating  assigned by
            Standard  &   Poor's.  The  obligor's  capacity  to  meet  its
            financial commitment on the obligation is extremely strong.

AA          An   obligation   rated  `AA'  differs  from  the  highest   rated
            obligations only in small degree.  The obligor's  capacity to meet
            its financial commitment on the obligation is very strong.

A           An  obligation  rated  `A' is  somewhat  more  susceptible  to the
            adverse   effects  of  changes  in   circumstances   and  economic
            conditions than obligations in higher rated  categories.  However,
            the  obligor's  capacity to meet its  financial  commitment on the
            obligation is still strong.

BBB         An   obligation   rated   `BBB'   exhibits   adequate   protection
            parameters.  However,  adverse  economic  conditions  or  changing
            circumstances  are more  likely to lead to a weakened  capacity of
            the obligor to meet its financial  commitment  on the  obligation.
            Obligations rated `BB', `B', `CCC',  `CC', and `C' are regarded as
            having  significant  speculative  characteristics.  `BB' indicates
            the least degree of  speculation  and `C' the highest.  While such
            obligations   will  likely  have  some   quality  and   protective
            characteristics,  these may be outweighed  by large  uncertainties
            or major exposures to adverse conditions.

BB          An obligation  rated `BB' is less  vulnerable  to nonpayment  than
            other  speculative   issues.   However,  it  faces  major  ongoing
            uncertainties  or  exposure  to adverse  business,  financial,  or
            economic  conditions which could lead to the obligor's  inadequate
            capacity to meet its financial commitment on the obligation.

B           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.

CCC         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.
CC          The rating CC typically is applied to debt  subordinated to senior
            debt that is assigned an actual or implied CCC debt rating.

C           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.

Description of long-term debt ratings by Fitch IBCA:

AAA         Highest   credit   quality.   `AAA'  ratings   denote  the  lowest
            expectation  of credit  risk.  They are  assigned  only in case of
            exceptionally  strong  capacity  for timely  payment of  financial
            commitments.  This  capacity is highly  unlikely  to be  adversely
            affected by foreseeable events.

AA          Very  high  credit  quality.   `AA'  ratings  denote  a  very  low
            expectation  of credit risk.  They indicate  very strong  capacity
            for timely payment of financial commitments.  This capacity is not
            significantly vulnerable to foreseeable events.

A           High credit  quality.  `A'  ratings  denote a low  expectation  of
            credit  risk.   The  capacity  for  timely  payment  of  financial
            commitments   is   considered    strong.    This   capacity   may,
            nevertheless,  be more vulnerable to changes in  circumstances  or
            in economic conditions than is the case for higher ratings.

BBB         Bonds  considered  to be  investment  grade  and  of  satisfactory
            credit  quality.  The obligor's  ability to pay interest and repay
            principal  is  considered  to  be  adequate.  Adverse  changes  in
            economic  conditions and circumstances,  however,  are more likely
            to have  adverse  impact  on these  bonds,  and  therefore  impair
            timely  payment.  The  likelihood  that the ratings of these bonds
            will fall  below  investment  grade is higher  than for bonds with
            higher ratings.

BB          Bonds are  considered  speculative.  The obligor's  ability to pay
            interest and repay  principal may be affected over time by adverse
            economic  changes.  However,  business and financial  alternatives
            can be  identified  which could  assist the obligor in  satisfying
            its debt service requirements.

B           Bonds  are  considered  highly  speculative.  While  bonds in this
            class  are  currently  meeting  debt  service  requirements,   the
            probability of continued  timely payment of principal and interest
            reflects the obligor's  limited  margin of safety and the need for
            reasonable  business and economic activity  throughout the life of
            the issue.

CCC         Bonds have  certain  identifiable  characteristics  which,  if not
            remedied,  may lead to default.  The  ability to meet  obligations
            requires an advantageous business and economic environment.

CC          Bonds are  minimally  protected.  Default in  payment of  interest
            and/or principal seems probable over time.

C           Bonds are imminent default in payment of interest or principal.

Short -Term Debt Ratings (may be assigned,  for example,  to commercial paper,
master demand notes, bank instruments, and letters of credit)

Moody's description of its three highest short-term debt ratings:

Prime-1     Issuers  rated  Prime-1  (or  supporting   institutions)   have  a
            superior   ability  for  repayment  of  senior   short-term   debt
            obligations.  Prime-1 repayment ability will often be evidenced by
            many of the following characteristics:

            o     Leading market positions in well-established industries.

            o     High rates of return on funds employed.

            o     Conservative    capitalization   structure   with   moderate
                  reliance on debt and ample asset protection.

            o     Broad  margins  in  earnings  coverage  of  fixed  financial
                  charges and high internal cash generation.

            o     Well-established  access to a range of financial markets and
                  assured sources of alternate liquidity.

Prime-2     Issuers rated Prime-2 (or supporting  institutions)  have a strong
            ability for repayment of senior short-term debt obligations.  This
            will  normally be evidenced by many of the  characteristics  cited
            above  but  to a  lesser  degree.  Earnings  trends  and  coverage
            ratios,   while  sound,   may  be  more   subject  to   variation.
            Capitalization  characteristics,  while still appropriate,  may be
            more affected by external  conditions.  Ample alternate  liquidity
            is maintained.

Prime-3     Issuers  rated  Prime-3  (or  supporting   institutions)  have  an
            acceptable    ability   for   repayment   of   senior   short-term
            obligations.  The effect of  industry  characteristics  and market
            compositions may be more  pronounced.  Variability in earnings and
            profitability   may  result  in  changes  in  the  level  of  debt
            protection  measurements and may require relatively high financial
            leverage. Adequate alternate liquidity is maintained.

S&P's description of its three highest short-term debt ratings:

A-1         A  short-term  obligation  rated  `A-1' is  rated  in the  highest
            category by Standard &  Poor's. The obligor's capacity to meet
            its financial commitment on the obligation is strong.  Within this
            category,  certain  obligations  are  designated  with a plus sign
            (+).  This  indicates  that  the  obligor's  capacity  to meet its
            financial commitment on these obligations is extremely strong.

A-2         A short-term  obligation  rated `A-2' is somewhat more susceptible
            to the adverse  effects of changes in  circumstances  and economic
            conditions than obligations in higher rating categories.  However,
            the  obligor's  capacity to meet its  financial  commitment on the
            obligation is satisfactory.

A-3         A short-term  obligation rated `A-3' exhibits adequate  protection
            parameters.  However,  adverse  economic  conditions  or  changing
            circumstances  are more  likely to lead to a weakened  capacity of
            the obligor to meet its financial commitment on the obligation.

Fitch IBCA's description of its three highest short-term debt ratings:

F1          Highest  credit  quality.  Indicates  the Best capacity for timely
            payment of financial commitments;  may have an added "+" to denote
            any exceptionally strong credit feature.

F2          Good credit  quality.  A satisfactory  capacity for timely payment
            of  financial  commitments,  but the  margin  of  safety is not as
            great as in the case of the higher ratings.

F3          Fair credit quality.  The capacity for timely payment of financial
            commitments is adequate;  however, near-term adverse changes could
            result in a reduction to non-investment grade.

Short-Term Loan/Municipal Note Ratings

Moody's description of its two highest short-term loan/municipal note ratings:

MIG 1/VMIG 1 This  designation  denotes  superior  credit  quality.  Excellent
protection is afforded by established  cash flows,  highly reliable  liquidity
support, or demonstrated broad-based access to the market for refinancing.

MIG  2/VMIG 2 This  designation  denotes  strong  credit  quality.  Margins of
protection are ample, although not as large as in the preceding group.

Short-Term Debt Ratings

            Thomson   BankWatch,   Inc.  ("TBW")  ratings  are  based  upon  a
       qualitative   and   quantitative   analysis  of  all  segments  of  the
       organization   including,   where   applicable,   holding  company  and
       operating subsidiaries.

            BankWatch(TM)  Ratings do not constitute a  recommendation  to buy or
       sell securities of any of these companies.  Further, BankWatch does not
       suggest specific investment criteria for individual clients.

       The TBW  Short-Term  Ratings  apply to commercial  paper,  other senior
       short-term  obligations  and  deposit  obligations  of the  entities to
       which the rating has been assigned.

       The TBW  Short-Term  Rating  apply only to unsecured  instruments  that
       have a maturity of one year or less.

       The TBW  Short-Term  Ratings  specifically  assess the likelihood of an
       untimely payment of principal or interest.

TBW-1       The  highest  category;  indicates  a very  high  likelihood  that
            principal and interest will be paid on a timely basis.

TBW-2       The second-highest  category; while the degree of safety regarding
            timely  repayment  of  principal  and  interest  is  strong,   the
            relative  degree  of  safety  is not as high as for  issues  rated
            TBW-1.

TBW-3       The lowest  investment-grade  category;  indicates  that while the
            obligation  is more  susceptible  to  adverse  developments  (both
            internal  and  external)  than  those  with  higher  ratings,  the
            capacity to service  principal and interest in a timely fashion is
            considered adequate.

TBW-4       The  lowest  rating  category;  this  rating  is  regarded  as non
            investment grade and therefore speculative.
