Dear Shareholders:
You are being asked to vote on an Agreement and Plan of
Reorganization whereby all of the assets of

("Investment Funds"), in exchange for shares of the corresponding
class of common stock of the Acquiring Fund.  If the Agreement and
Plan of Reorganization is approved and consummated, you would no
longer be a shareholder of the Fund, but would become a
shareholder of the corresponding class of the Acquiring Fund,
which has similar investment objectives and policies to your Fund,
except as described in the Proxy Statement/Prospectus.

Statement and the Reorganization, will be sent to all shareholders

Information.

dated February 28, 2000.

Merger Q&A
Concert Small Cap into Smith Barney Small Cap Growth


The enclosed materials include a combined Prospectus/Proxy
Statement containing information you need to make a more informed
decision. However, we thought it would also be helpful for you to
have, at the start, answers to some of the important questions you
might have about the proposed reorganization.

We hope you find these explanations useful as you review your
materials before voting. For more detailed information about the
proposed reorganization, please refer to the combined enclosed
Prospectus/Proxy Statement.


What will happen to my shares if the proposed reorganization is
approved?
You will become a shareholder of the Smith Barney Small Cap Growth
Fund on or about
October 6, 2000 ("Closing Date") and will no longer be a
shareholder of the Concert Small Cap Fund, which will be
terminated pursuant to the proposed reorganization. You will
receive shares of the Smith Barney Small Cap Growth Fund with a
total net asset value equal to the total net asset value of your
investment in the Concert Small Cap Fund at the time of the
transaction.

What is the key reason for this fund reorganization?
The proposed reorganization will create one single larger sized
fund and provide shareholders of Concert Small Cap with a fund
that has lower annual expenses. The proposed reorganization is
part of a broader initiative by the Funds' manager, SSB Citi Fund
Management LLC, to restructure more efficiently its mutual fund
product offerings.

As a shareholder of the Smith Barney Small Cap Growth Fund, you
will be able to exchange into the same class of certain Smith
Barney mutual funds offered by the funds' distributor, provided
that the Smith Barney Fund offers the relevant class of shares.

Do the funds have similar investment objectives?
Yes.  The principal investment objective of the Concert Small Cap
Fund is capital appreciation, while the investment objective of
the Smith Barney Small Cap Growth Fund is long-term growth of
capital. Timothy Woods, the portfolio manager of the Smith Barney
Small Cap Growth Fund, has over 15 years of securities business
experience and has been the manager of the Smith Barney Small Cap
Growth Fund since its inception in 1999.

In both funds, the managers seek to achieve growth of capital by
investing in small sized companies in the early stages of their
life cycles with favorable growth prospects. However, the
investment practices and limitation of each Fund (and related
risk) are not identical. For additional information regarding the
differences between the two funds, please refer to the enclosed
proxy statement.

How does portfolio manager Tim Woods identify small cap growth
opportunities?*
Tim selects individual stocks for investment by identifying those
companies which exhibit the most favorable growth prospects.  In
selecting individual companies for investment, the manager
considers:
? Growth characteristics, including high historic growth rates
and high forecasted growth of sales, profits and return on
equity
? Innovative companies at the cutting edge of positive and
dynamic demographic and economic trends
? Products and services that give the company a competitive
advantage
? Skilled management committed to long term growth
? Potential for a long-term investment by the fund

* Small cap stocks involve more risk and greater price
fluctuations than large cap stocks

What are the tax consequences of this proposed reorganization?
Subject to shareholder approval, the proposed fund reorganization
will not be a taxable event. Shareholders will not realize any
capital gain or loss as a direct result of the proposed
reorganization.

Will I enjoy the same privileges as a shareholder of the Smith
Barney Small Cap Growth Fund that I currently have as a
shareholder of the Concert Small Cap Fund?
Yes. You will continue to enjoy substantially the same shareholder
privileges such as systematic investment, automatic cash
withdrawal and dividend reinvestment as well as access to
professional service representatives.

How does the Board of Trustees recommend I vote?
The Trustees recommend that you vote FOR the reorganization. The
Trustees believe the reorganization is in the best interest of the
Concert Small Cap Fund and its shareholders.


Why is my vote important?

Shareholders have a responsibility to vote on important matters
affecting their fund  investments. No matter how many shares you
own, your vote --- and its timeliness-are also important.  Please
complete and sign the enclosed proxy card today!

Please note if you sign and date your proxy card, but do not
provide voting instructions, your shares will be voted FOR the
proposal. By voting promptly, you will help us to avoid the
expense of having to re-solicit your proxy and help to keep fund
expenses down. Thank you in advance for your vote.



SUBJECT TO COMPLETION, DATED JULY 17, 2000
PROXY STATEMENT/PROSPECTUS
________, 2000
RELATING TO THE ACQUISITION BY
SMITH BARNEY SMALL CAP GROWTH FUND (THE "ACQUIRING FUND"),
A SERIES OF SMITH BARNEY INVESTMENT FUNDS INC. ("INVESTMENT
FUNDS")
388 Greenwich Street
New York, New York  10013
(800) 451-2010
OF THE ASSETS OF SMALL CAP FUND (THE "FUND"),
A SERIES OF CONCERT INVESTMENT SERIES(r) ("INVESTMENT SERIES").
General.  This Proxy Statement/Prospectus is furnished to
shareholders of the Fund in connection with a proposed
reorganization in which all of the assets of
the Fund would be acquired by Investment Funds, on behalf of the
Acquiring Fund, in exchange solely for voting shares of the
corresponding class of shares of common stock of the Acquiring
Fund and the assumption by Investment Funds, on behalf of the
Acquiring Fund, of all of the stated liabilities of the Fund
(collectively, the "Reorganization").  Shares of the Acquiring
Fund thereby received would then be distributed to the
shareholders of the Fund in complete liquidation of the Fund, and
the Fund would be terminated as a series of Investment Series.  As
a result of the Reorganization, each shareholder of the Fund would
receive that number of full and fractional shares of the
corresponding class of the Acquiring Fund having an aggregate net
asset value equal to the aggregate net asset value of such
shareholder's shares of the Fund held as of the close of business
on the Closing Date (as defined herein) of the Reorganization.
Shareholders of the Fund are being asked to vote on an Agreement
and Plan of Reorganization pursuant to which such transactions, as
described more fully below, would be consummated.

THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION HAS NOT APPROVED OR
DISAPPROVED THESE SECURITIES NOR PASSED UPON THE ACCURACY OR
ADEQUACY OF THIS PROXY STATEMENT/PROSPECTUS. ANY REPRESENTATION TO
THE CONTRARY IS A CRIMINAL OFFENSE.
NO PERSON HAS BEEN AUTHORIZED TO GIVE ANY INFORMATION OR TO MAKE
ANY REPRESENTATIONS OTHER THAN THOSE CONTAINED IN THIS COMBINED
PROSPECTUS/PROXY STATEMENT AND IN THE MATERIALS EXPRESSLY
INCORPORATED HEREIN BY REFERENCE AND, IF GIVEN OR MADE, SUCH OTHER
INFORMATION OR REPRESENTATIONS MUST NOT BE RELIED UPON AS HAVING
BEEN AUTHORIZED BY THE FUNDS.

This Proxy Statement/Prospectus, which should be retained
for future reference, sets forth concisely the information about
the Acquiring Fund that a prospective investor should know before
investing.  For a more detailed discussion of the investment
objectives, policies, restrictions and risks of the Acquiring
Fund, see the prospectus for the Acquiring Fund, dated October 11,
1999, as supplemented from time to time, which is included
herewith and incorporated herein by reference.  This Proxy
Statement/Prospectus is also accompanied by the Acquiring Fund's
semi-annual report to shareholders for the six months ended March
31, 2000, which is included herewith and incorporated herein by
reference.  For a more detailed discussion of the investment
objectives, policies, restrictions and risks of the Fund, see the
prospectus for the Fund, dated February 28, 2000, the annual
report to shareholders for the year ended October 31, 1999 and the
semi-annual report to shareholders for the six months ended April
30, 2000, each of which is incorporated herein by reference and a
copy of which may be obtained without charge by writing to Smith
Barney Mutual Funds, 388 Greenwich Street, New York, New York
10013, or by calling toll-free (800) 451-2010.  A Statement of
Additional Information of the Fund and the Acquiring Fund dated
________, 2000 containing additional information about the
Reorganization and the parties thereto has been filed with the
Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC" or the "Commission")
and is incorporated by reference into this Proxy
Statement/Prospectus.  A copy of the Statement of Additional
Information is available upon request and without charge by
writing to or calling Smith Barney Mutual Funds at the address or
phone number listed above.  Shareholder inquiries regarding the
Fund or the Acquiring Fund may also be made by calling the phone
number listed above.  The information contained herein concerning
the Fund has been provided by, and is included herein in reliance
upon, Investment Series on behalf of the Fund.  The information
contained herein concerning the Acquiring Fund has been provided
by, and is included herein in reliance upon, Investment Funds.
The Acquiring Fund is a diversified series of Investment
Funds, an open-end management investment company organized as a
Maryland corporation.  The Fund is a diversified series of
Investment Series, an open-end management investment company
organized as a Massachusetts business trust.  The investment
objective of the Acquiring Fund is long-term growth of capital,
and the investment objective of the Fund is capital appreciation.
The Acquiring Fund seeks to achieve its objective by investing
primarily in equity securities of companies that have a market
capitalization within the market capitalization range of companies
in the Russell 2000 Growth Index at the time of investment.  The
Fund seeks to achieve its objective by investing in U.S. companies
with market capitalizations in the lowest 20% of all publicly-
traded U.S. companies.  Each Fund employs a style of stock
selection which emphasizes individual stock selection based on
high growth prospects.
_______________________
In the description of the Proposal below, the word "fund"
is sometimes used to mean investment companies or series thereof
in general, and not the Fund whose proxy statement this is.  The
Fund and the Acquiring Fund may each be referred to as a "Fund"
and may also be referred to collectively as the "Funds. "  In
addition, in this Proxy Statement/ Prospectus, for simplicity,
actions are described as being taken by the Fund, although all
actions are actually taken by Investment Funds, on behalf of the
Acquiring Fund, and by Investment Series, on behalf of the Fund.
This Proxy Statement/Prospectus, the Notice of Special
Meeting and the proxy card(s) are first being mailed to
shareholders on or about August 21, 2000 or as soon as practicable
thereafter. Any shareholder of the Fund giving a proxy has the
power to revoke it by mail (addressed to the Secretary at the
principal executive office of Investment Series at the address
shown at the beginning of this Proxy Statement/Prospectus) or in
person at the Special Meeting by executing a superseding proxy or
by submitting a notice of revocation to the Fund.  All properly
executed proxies received in time for the Special Meeting will be
voted as specified in the proxy or, if no specification is made,
in favor of the Proposals referred to in the Proxy Statement.

In cases where certain shareholders have purchased their shares
through service agents, these service agents are the shareholders
of record of the Fund.  At the special meeting, a service agent may,
as permitted by applicable laws and regulations, vote any shares of
which it is the holder of record and for which
it does not receive voting instructions proportionately in accordance with
the instructions it receives for all other shares of which that service agent
is the holder of record.

The presence at any shareholders' meeting, in person or by
proxy, of the holders of shares of the Fund holding 20% of
the outstanding shares of the Fund entitled to vote shall be
necessary and sufficient to constitute a quorum for the
transaction of business.  If the necessary quorum to transact
business or the vote required to approve any Proposal is not
obtained at the Special Meeting, the persons named as proxies may
propose one or more adjournments of the Special Meeting in
accordance with applicable law to permit further solicitation of
proxies with respect to the Proposal that did not receive the vote
necessary for its passage or to obtain a quorum.  Any such
adjournment as to a matter will require the affirmative vote of
the holders of a majority of the Fund's outstanding shares present
in person or by proxy at the Special Meeting.  The persons named
as proxies will vote in favor of such adjournment those proxies
which they are entitled to vote in favor of that Proposal and will
vote against any such adjournment those proxies to be voted
against that Proposal.  For purposes of determining the presence
of a quorum for transacting business at the Special Meeting,
abstentions and broker "non-votes" will be treated as shares that
are present but which have not been voted.  Broker non-votes are
proxies received by the Fund from brokers or nominees when the
broker or nominee has neither received instructions from the
beneficial owner or other persons entitled to vote nor has
discretionary power to vote on a particular matter.  Accordingly,
shareholders are urged to forward their voting instructions
promptly.
The Proposal requires the affirmative vote of the holders of
not less than a majority of the Fund's outstanding shares of
beneficial interest entitled to vote thereon.  Abstentions and
broker non-votes will have the effect of a "no" vote on the
Proposal.
Holders of record of the shares of the Fund at the close of
business on August 11, 2000 (the "Record Date"), as to any matter
on which they are entitled to vote, will be entitled to one vote
per share on all business of the Special Meeting.  As of August
11, 2000, there were ___________ shares of the Fund outstanding.
To the best of knowledge of Investment Funds as of August 11,
2000, [no person owned beneficially more than 5% of any class of
the Acquiring Fund's outstanding shares].  To the best of
knowledge of Investment Series, as of August 11, 2000, [no person
owned beneficially more than 5% of any class of the Fund's
outstanding shares].
As of August 11, 2000, [less than 1% of the outstanding
shares of each of the Fund and the Acquiring Fund were owned
directly or beneficially by the Trustees of Investment Series or
the Directors of Investment Funds, respectively.]
Each of the Fund and the Acquiring Fund provides periodic
reports to all of its shareholders which highlight relevant
information, including investment results and a review of
portfolio changes.  You may receive an additional copy of the most
recent annual report for the Fund and a copy of any more recent
semi-annual report for each of the Fund and the Acquiring Fund,
without charge, by calling 800-451-2010 or writing to the Fund or
the Acquiring Fund at the address shown at the beginning of this
Proxy Statement/Prospectus.
PROPOSAL:  APPROVAL OF AGREEMENT AND PLAN OF REORGANIZATION
The Board of Trustees of Investment Series, on behalf of the
Fund, and the Board of Directors of Investment Funds, on behalf of
the Acquiring Fund, including all of the Trustees/Directors who
are not "interested persons" of such Funds (as defined in the
Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "1940 Act")) (the
"Non-Interested Trustees" or "Non-Interested Board Members"),
approved on July 17, 2000, an Agreement and Plan of Reorganization
(the "Plan").  Subject to its approval by the shareholders of the
Fund, the Plan provides for (a) the transfer of all of the assets and
all of the stated liabilities of the
Fund to Investment Funds, on behalf of the Acquiring Fund, in
exchange for shares of the corresponding class of the Acquiring
Fund and assumption by Investment Funds, on behalf of the
Acquiring Fund, of the Fund's liabilities; (b) the distribution of
such Acquiring Fund shares to the shareholders of the Fund in
complete liquidation of the Fund and the cancellation of the
Fund's outstanding shares; and (c) the termination of the Fund as
a series of Investment Series (collectively, the
"Reorganization").  As a result of the Reorganization, each
shareholder of the Fund will become a shareholder of the
corresponding class of the Acquiring Fund and will hold,
immediately after the closing of the Reorganization (the
"Closing"), that number of full and fractional shares of the
corresponding class of the Acquiring Fund having an aggregate net
asset value equal to the aggregate net asset value of such
shareholder's shares held in the Fund as of the close of business
on the Closing Date (as defined below).  The Closing is expected
to occur on October 6, 2000, or on such later date as the parties
may agree in writing (the "Closing Date").
SYNOPSIS
The following is a summary of certain information contained
in this Proxy Statement/Prospectus.  This summary is qualified by
reference to the more complete information contained elsewhere in
this Proxy Statement/Prospectus, the Prospectus of the Acquiring
Fund, the Prospectus of the Fund and the Plan, the form of which
is attached to this Proxy Statement/Prospectus as Exhibit A.
Shareholders of the Fund should read this entire Proxy
Statement/Prospectus carefully.
Introduction.  Like your Fund, the Acquiring Fund is managed
by SSB Citi Fund Management LLC ("SSB Citi"), an affiliate of
Salomon Smith Barney Inc. ("Salomon Smith Barney").  However,
while Sandip Bhagat is the portfolio manager of your Fund, Timothy
Woods is the portfolio manager of the Acquiring Fund.  Whereas
your Fund has capital appreciation as its investment objective,
the Acquiring Fund has long-term growth of capital as its
investment objective.  Moreover, the distributor, custodian and
transfer agent of each of the Fund and the Acquiring Fund are
identical.  Whereas the Acquiring Fund has retained PFPC Global
Financial Services, Inc. as a sub-transfer agent, the Fund has
additionally retained PFS Shareholder Services as a sub-transfer
agent.  Further, where the Fund has retained Ernst & Young LLP as
its independent auditors, the Acquiring Fund has retained KPMG LLP
as its independent auditors.
If the Plan is consummated, shareholders of the Fund will
become shareholders of the corresponding class of the Acquiring
Fund.  The Reorganization has been proposed as part of a broader
initiative by SSB Citi to eliminate duplication and possible
confusion in its mutual fund product offerings.  Specifically,
this Reorganization has been proposed as the Funds have
substantially similar investment objectives and policies and the
Acquiring Fund is subject to lower total annual
expense ratio.  Shareholders of the Fund will continue to enjoy
the same shareholder privileges, such as systematic investment,
automatic cash withdrawal and automatic dividend reinvestment, and
access to professional service representatives upon becoming
shareholders of the Acquiring Fund.  Further, shareholders of the
Acquiring Fund may exchange into the same class of any Smith
Barney Fund (provided that the Smith Barney Fund offers the
relevant class of shares), whereas shareholders of the Fund may
only exchange into shares of certain Smith Barney Funds,
Concert brand funds or, in certain instances,
Citi FundsSM Cash Reserves.  Moreover, although many of the
services provided by PFS Shareholder Services, Inc. to the Fund
are available to shareholders of the Acquiring Fund, PFS
Shareholder Services, Inc. will not provide services to the
Acquiring Fund.  Each of the Fund and the Acquiring Fund declares
dividends from net investment income and pays distributions of net
realized capital gains, if any, annually.  See "Dividends and
Other Distributions."  It is a condition of the Reorganization
that each Fund receive an opinion of independent legal counsel
that the Reorganization will be tax-free.  This means that
shareholders will not realize any capital gain or loss as a direct
result of the Reorganization.
Proposed Transaction.  The aggregate net asset value of each
class of voting shares of the Acquiring Fund (the "Shares") issued
in exchange for the assets and liabilities of the corresponding
class of the Fund will be equal to the net asset value of that
class of the Fund as of the Closing Date.  Immediately following
the transfer of Shares to the Fund, the Shares received by the
Fund will be distributed pro rata to the shareholders of record of
the Fund on the Closing Date and the shares of the Fund will be
cancelled.
For the reasons described below under "The Proposed
Transaction-Reasons for the Proposed Transaction," the Board of
Trustees of Investment Series on behalf of the Fund, including the
Non-Interested Trustees, has concluded the following:
-	the Reorganization is in the best interests of the Fund
and its shareholders; and
-	the interests of the existing shareholders of the Fund
will not be diluted as a result of the Reorganization.
Accordingly, the Trustees recommend approval of the Plan.
If the Plan is not approved, the Fund will continue in existence
unless other action is taken by the Trustees; such other action
may include resubmitting the Plan for shareholder approval and
termination and liquidation of the Fund.
Comparison of Investment Objectives and Policies.  The
investment objective of the Acquiring Fund is long-term growth of
capital.  The investment objective of the Fund is capital
appreciation.  The Acquiring Fund seeks to achieve its objective
by investing primarily in equity securities of high growth
companies that have a market capitalization within the market
capitalization range of companies in the Russell 2000 Growth Index
at the time of investment.  The Fund seeks to achieve its
objective by investing in U.S. companies with market
capitalizations in the lowest 20% of all publicly-traded U.S.
companies.  Each Fund employs a style of stock selection which
emphasizes individual stock selection based on high growth
prospects.  The Acquiring Fund compares its performance against
the Russell 2000 Growth Index, while the Fund compares its
performance against the Russell 2000 Stock Index.  The Fund's
investment restrictions are substantially similar to that of the
Acquiring Fund, except as described in this Proxy
Statement/Prospectus.
The Acquiring Fund may invest up to 10% and the Fund may
invest up to 20% of its assets in foreign securities directly or
in the form of depositary receipts representing an interest in
those securities.  Each Fund has adopted substantially similar
fundamental investment restrictions with respect to its
diversified status; issuing senior securities; underwriting
securities; industry concentration; borrowing money; and
purchasing or selling real estate, real estate mortgages,
commodities or commodity contracts.  Each Fund's fundamental
investment restrictions may not be changed without the approval of
the applicable Fund's shareholders.  Each Fund has also adopted
substantially similar non-fundamental investment policy with
respect to investments in illiquid and restricted securities or in
oil or other mineral leases, purchasing securities on margin, and
investing in any company for the purpose of exercising control of
management.  The Fund has adopted certain additional non-
fundamental restrictions with respect to, among other things,
short sales, warrants and alcohol and tobacco manufacturers.  The
Acquiring Fund has adopted an additional non-fundamental
restriction with respect to unseasoned issuers.  While both Funds
may use derivative contracts, such as futures and options on
securities, securities indices and currencies; options on these
futures; forward currency contracts; and interest rate and
currency swaps, (i) to hedge against the economic impact of
adverse changes in the market value of portfolio securities and
(ii) as a substitute for buying or selling securities, the Fund
may engage in such activities to enhance return and the Acquiring
Fund may engage in such activities as a cash management technique.
Whereas the Fund may only lend up to 15% of the total value of its
portfolio securities, the Acquiring Fund may lend its portfolio
securities to the fullest extent permitted under the 1940 Act (in
each case, these are fundamental investment restrictions).
Each Fund may also invest in preferred stock and convertible
securities, short-term instruments, and repurchase and reverse
repurchase agreements, each in accordance with any 1940 Act or
other applicable limitations.  Investors should refer to the
respective prospectuses and statements of additional information
of the Fund and the Acquiring Fund for a fuller description of
each Fund's investment policies and restrictions.  Whereas the
Fund may only lend up to 15% of the total value of its portfolio
securities, the Acquiring Fund may lend its portfolio securities
to the fullest extent permitted under the 1940 Act (in each case,
these are fundamental investment restrictions).
INVESTMENT OBJECTIVE AND POLICIES
OF THE ACQUIRING FUND AND THE FUND
The Acquiring Fund
Investment objective.  The Acquiring Fund seeks long-term
growth of capital.
Key investments.  The Acquiring Fund invests primarily in
equity securities of high growth companies.  These companies
possess a market capitalization within the market capitalization
range of companies in the Russell 2000 Growth Index (the "Index")
at the time of the Acquiring Fund's investment.  The size of the
companies in the Index changes with market conditions and the
composition of the Index.  As of September 30, 1999, the largest
market capitalization of a company in the Index was $3.5 billion.
Equity securities include exchange traded and over-the-counter
common stocks, preferred stocks, debt securities convertible into
equity securities and warrants and rights relating to equity
securities.  The Acquiring Fund may invest up to 35% of its assets
in equity securities of companies with market capitalizations
outside the range of companies in the Index.
Selection process.  The manager focuses on small
capitalization companies that exhibit attractive growth
characteristics.  The manger selects individual stocks for
investment by identifying those companies which exhibit the most
favorable growth prospects.  In selecting individual companies for
investment, the manager considers:
? Growth characteristics, including high historic growth
rates and high forecasted growth of sales, profits and
return on equity
? Innovative companies at the cutting edge of positive and
dynamic demographic and economic trends
? Products and services that give the company a competitive
advantage
? Skilled management committed to long-term growth
? Potential for a long-term investment by the fund
The manager uses a disciplined investment process to identify
small financially sound growth companies that exhibit the
potential to become much larger and more successful.  Elements of
this process include fundamental research, evaluation of key
management and screening techniques.
Principal risks of investing in the Acquiring Fund.
Investors could lose money on their investment in the Acquiring
Fund, or the Acquiring Fund may not perform as well as other
investments, if:
? Key economic trends become materially unfavorable, such
as rising interest rates and levels of inflation or a
slowdown of economic growth
? U.S. stock markets perform poorly relative to other types
of investments
? An adverse company specific event, such as an unfavorable
earnings report, negatively affects the stock price of a
company in which the fund invests
? Small capitalization stocks underperform mid
capitalization and large capitalization stocks
? The manager's judgment about the attractiveness, growth
prospects, value or potential appreciation of a
particular stock proves to be incorrect
Because the Acquiring Fund invests primarily in small
capitalization growth companies, an investment in the Acquiring
Fund may be more volatile and more susceptible to loss than an
investment in a fund which invests primarily in large
capitalization companies.  Small capitalization companies may have
more limited product lines, markets and financial resources than
large capitalization companies.  They may have shorter operating
histories and more erratic businesses.  In addition, small
capitalization company stocks may be less liquid than large
capitalization company stocks.
Who may want to invest.  The Acquiring Fund may be an
appropriate investment if you:
? Are seeking to participate in the long term potential of
small capitalization growth companies
? Are looking for an investment with potentially greater
return but higher risk than a fund that invests primarily
in large cap companies
? Are willing to accept the risks of the stock market and
the special risks and potential long-term rewards of
investing in smaller companies with limited track records
? Are seeking diversification
The Fund
Investment objective.  The Fund seeks capital appreciation.
Key investments.  The Fund invests in common stocks of
small sized companies considered by the manager to be "emerging
growth" companies.  These are primarily domestic companies, in the
early stages of their life cycles, characterized by relatively
high earnings growth.  The manager selects investments from among
companies that have market capitalizations in the lowest 20% of
all publicly traded U.S. companies.
How the manager selects the Fund's investments.  The
manager emphasizes individual security selection while spreading
investments among many industries and sectors.  The manager uses
quantitative analysis to identify individual companies that it
believes offer exceptionally high prospects for growth.  The
manager purchases these companies' stocks when it believes they
are reasonably priced.  This style of stock selection is commonly
known as "growth at a reasonable price."  Quantitative methods are
also used to control portfolio risk related to broad macroeconomic
factors, such as interest rate changes.  The manager selects
investments for their potential capital appreciation; any ordinary
income is incidental.  In selecting individual companies for
investment, the manager looks for:
? Above average earnings growth
? A pattern of reported earnings that exceed market
expectations
? Rising earnings estimates over the next several quarters
? High relative return on invested capital
? Reasonable price/earnings multiple
Principal risks of investing in the Fund.  Investors could
lose money on their investment in the Fund, or the Fund may not
perform as well as other investments, if any of the following
occurs:
? Stock prices decline generally
? Small cap companies fall out of favor with investors
? The manager's judgment about the attractiveness, value or
potential appreciation of a particular stock proves to be
incorrect
? A particular product or service developed by a small cap
company is unsuccessful, the company does not meet
earnings expectations or other events depress the value
of the company's stock
Compared to large, established companies, small cap
companies are more likely to have limited product lines, limited
capital resources and less experienced management.  In addition,
securities of small cap companies are more likely to:
? Experience sharper swings in market value
? Be harder to sell at times and prices the manager
believes appropriate
? Offer greater potential for gains and losses
Who may want to invest in the Fund.  The Fund may be an
appropriate investment if you:
? Are seeking to participate in the long term growth
potential of small cap companies
? Currently have exposure to fixed income investments and
less volatile equity investments and wish to broaden your
investment portfolio
? Are willing to accept the risks of investing in the stock
market and the special risks of investing in emerging
growth companies with limited track records

DISTRIBUTION OF SHARES AND OTHER SERVICES
As of June 5, 2000, Salomon Smith Barney distributes shares
of each Fund as principal underwriter and, as such, conducts a
continuous offering pursuant to a "best efforts" arrangement
requiring Salomon Smith Barney to take and pay for only such
securities as may be sold to the public.  Prior to that time,
CFBDS, Inc., located at 21 Milk Street, Boston, Massachusetts
02109-5408, acted as distributor of each Fund's shares.  With
respect to the Fund, Salomon Smith Barney has entered into a
selling agreement with PFS Distributors, Inc. (on behalf of PFS
Investments, Inc.) and with one or more other service agents
giving the service agents the rights to sell shares of the Fund.
Each Fund has adopted a plan of distribution under Rule 12b-1
under the 1940 Act (a "Plan").
With respect to the Acquiring Fund, Salomon Smith Barney is
paid a service fee for Class A and Class B shares at the annual
rate of 0.25% of the average daily net assets of the respective
Class under the Plan.  Salomon Smith Barney is also paid a
distribution fee with respect to Class B shares of the Acquiring
Fund at the annual rate of 0.75% of the average daily net assets
attributable to that Class. The fees are used by Salomon Smith
Barney to pay its financial consultants for servicing shareholder
accounts and, in the case of Class B shares, to cover expenses
primarily intended to result in the sale of those shares.
With respect to Class A shares of the Fund, the Fund pays
PFS Distributors, Inc. and Salomon Smith Barney, as administrative
agents for "PFS Accounts" (i.e., accounts held by PFS Shareholder
Services, Inc.) and other accounts, respectively (the
"Administrative Agents") 0.25% per annum of its average daily net
assets attributable to such class of shares as a service fee.  The
service fee is intended to cover shareholder and account
maintenance services provided to Class A shareholders of the Fund
by financial professionals.  Class B shares of the Fund are
subject to a combined annual distribution fee and service fee at
the rate of 1.00% of the Fund's aggregate average daily net assets
attributable to such class of shares, which fees are paid to the
Administrative Agents.  Payments are made by the Fund under the
Class B Plan of 0.25% per annum, and distribution fee payments of
0.75% per annum, of the aggregate average daily net assets
attributable to Class B shares.  The distribution fee payments are
used as compensation for sales and promotional activities and
marketing of the Class B shares of the Fund.  These expenditures
may consist of sales commissions to financial professionals for
selling Class B shares, compensation, sales incentives and
payments to sales and marketing personnel, and the payment of
expenses incurred in its sales and promotional activities,
including advertising expenditures related to the Class B shares
of the Fund and the costs of preparing and distributing
promotional materials with respect to the Class B shares.
Class 1 shares of the Funds are not subject to any
distribution fees.  Class B shares of each Fund that automatically
convert to Class A shares eight years after the date of original
purchase will no longer be subject to a distribution fee.
Payments under the above Plans are not tied exclusively to
the distribution and shareholder service expenses actually
incurred by Salomon Smith Barney or PFS Distributors, Inc. and the
payments may exceed distribution expenses actually incurred by the
Funds.
PURCHASE, REDEMPTION AND EXCHANGE INFORMATION
The purchase, redemption and exchange procedures and
privileges with respect to the Fund are substantially similar to
those of the Acquiring Fund.  However, whereas shareholders of the
Fund may only exchange into shares of certain Concert brand funds
or of Citi FundsSM Cash Reserves, shareholders of the Acquiring
Fund may exchange into the same class of any Smith Barney Fund
(provided that the Smith Barney Fund offers the relevant class of
shares).  Furthermore, while the Fund permitted telephone
redemptions, and did not require signature guarantees for mail
redemptions, of $50,000 or less, the Acquiring Fund limits such
amounts to $10,000 or less.  Moreover, although many of the
services provided by PFS Shareholder Services, Inc. to the Fund
are available to shareholders of the Acquiring Fund, PFS
Shareholder Services, Inc. will not provide services to the
Acquiring Fund.  Please refer to each Fund's prospectus and
statement of additional information for a more detailed discussion
of the purchase, redemption and exchange procedures and privileges
applicable to each class of a Fund.
DIVIDENDS AND OTHER DISTRIBUTIONS
Each Fund declares dividends from net investment income and
pays distributions of net realized capital gains, if any,
annually.  Each Fund intends to distribute any net realized
capital gains after utilization of capital loss carryforwards, if
any, in November or December to prevent application of a federal
excise tax.  An additional distribution may be made if necessary.
Whereas the Acquiring Fund expects distributions to be primarily
from income, the Fund expects distributions to be primarily from
gain.  Any dividends or capital gains distributions declared in
October, November or December with a record date in such month and
paid during the following January will be treated by shareholders
for federal income tax purposes as if received on December 31 of
the calendar year in which it is declared.  Dividends and
distributions of each Fund will be invested in additional shares
of the applicable Fund at net asset value and credited to the
shareholder's account on the payment date or, at the shareholder's
election, paid in cash.
If the Plan is approved by the Fund's shareholders, then as
soon as practicable before the Closing Date, the Fund will pay or
have paid its shareholders a cash distribution of substantially
all undistributed 2000 net investment income and undistributed
realized net capital gains.
TAX CONSEQUENCES
The Fund and the Acquiring Fund will have received an
opinion of Willkie Farr & Gallagher in connection with the
Reorganization, to the effect that, based upon certain facts,
assumptions and representations, the Reorganization will
constitute a tax-free reorganization within the meaning of section
368(a)(1) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the
"Code").  If the Reorganization constitutes a tax-free
reorganization, no gain or loss will be recognized by the Fund or
its shareholders as a direct result of the Reorganization.  See
"The Proposed Transaction -- Federal Income Tax Consequences."
PRINCIPAL INVESTMENTS AND RISK FACTORS
General.  As described above, the Fund and the Acquiring
Fund have substantially similar investment objectives and policies
and pursue their respective objectives in a similar manner.
Accordingly, the Funds engage in investment practices and
techniques that are substantially similar.  A more complete
description of the investment practices and limitations of the
Acquiring Fund is contained in the prospectus and statement of
additional information of the Acquiring Fund, dated October 11,
1999, as supplemented from time to time, a copy of which is
included herewith, and in the Statement of Additional Information
of the Fund and the Acquiring Fund dated ________, 2000 (relating
to the proposed Reorganization) which is incorporated herein by
reference.  Please refer to each Fund's prospectus and statement
of additional information for a more detailed discussion of the
specific investment practices and risks of the applicable Fund.
Because of their substantially similar investment policies,
the Funds are exposed to similar risks.  The following summarizes
those principal investment policies and related risk factors:
Equity Securities.  Common stocks represent an equity
(ownership) interest in a corporation.  Although equity securities
have a history of long-term growth in value, their prices
fluctuate based on changes in a company's financial condition and
on overall market and economic conditions.
Small Capitalization Companies.  Small companies (those
companies that have market capitalizations in the lowest 20% of
all publicly traded U.S. companies) may (i) be subject to more
volatile market movements than securities of larger, more
established companies; (ii) have limited product lines, markets or
financial resources; and (iii) depend upon a limited or less
experienced management group.  The securities of small companies
may be traded only on the over-the-counter market or on a regional
securities exchange and may not be traded daily or in the volume
typical of trading on a national securities exchange.  Disposition
by a Fund of small company securities in order to meet redemptions
may require the Fund to sell these securities at a discount from
market prices, over a longer period of time or during periods when
disposition is not desirable.
Preferred Stocks and Convertible Securities.  The Funds may
invest in convertible debt and preferred stocks.  Convertible debt
securities and preferred stock entitle the holder to acquire the
issuer's stock by exchange or purchase for a predetermined rate.
Convertible securities are subject both to the credit and interest
rate risks associated with fixed income securities and to the
stock market risk associated with equity securities.
Warrants.  Warrants acquired by the Funds entitle it to buy
common stock from the issuer at a specified price and time.
Warrants are subject to the same market risks as stocks, but may
be more volatile in price.  A Fund's investment in warrants will
not entitle it to receive dividends or exercise voting rights and
will become worthless if the warrants cannot be profitably
exercised before the expiration dates.
Illiquid and Restricted Securities.  The Funds may invest up
to 15% of its assets in securities (excluding those subject to
Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "1933
Act"), with contractual or other restrictions on resale and other
instruments that are not readily marketable, including (a)
repurchase agreements with maturities greater than seven days, (b)
time deposits maturing from two business days through seven
calendar days, (c) to the extent that a liquid secondary market
does not exist for the instruments, futures contracts and options
on those contracts and (d) other securities that are subject to
restrictions on resale that the investment adviser has determined
are not liquid under guidelines established by a Fund's governing
board.
Foreign Securities.  The Acquiring Fund may invest up to 10%
and the Fund may invest up to 20% of its assets in securities of
foreign issuers, including securities denominated in foreign
currencies.  These investments involve certain risks not
ordinarily associated with investments in securities of domestic
issuers.  These risks include differences in accounting, auditing
and financial reporting standards, generally higher commission
rates on foreign portfolio transactions, the possibility of
expropriation or confiscatory taxation, adverse changes in
investment or exchange control regulations, political instability
which could affect U.S. investments in foreign countries and
potential restrictions on the flow of international capital.
Additionally, dividends or interest payable on foreign securities,
and in some cases capital gains, may be subject to foreign
withholding or other foreign taxes.  Foreign securities often
trade with less frequency and volume than domestic securities and
therefore may exhibit greater price volatility.  Changes in
foreign exchange rates will affect the value of those securities
which are denominated or quoted in currencies other than U.S.
dollars.  Certain of the foreign securities held by the fund may
not be registered with, nor will the issuers thereof be subject to
the reporting requirements of, the SEC.  Accordingly, there may be
less publicly available information about the securities and the
foreign company or government issuing them than is available about
a domestic company or government entity.  Moreover, individual
foreign economies may differ favorably or unfavorably from the
U.S. economy in such respects as growth of gross national product,
rate of inflation, capital reinvestment, resource self-sufficiency
and balance of payment positions.
ADRs.  The Funds may purchase ADRs or other securities
representing underlying shares of foreign companies.  ADRs are
publicly traded on exchanges or over-the-counter in the United
States and are issued through "sponsored" or "unsponsored"
arrangements.  In a sponsored ADR arrangement, the foreign issuer
assumes the obligation to pay some or all of the depository's
transaction fees, whereas under an unsponsored arrangement, the
foreign issuer assumes no obligation and the depository's
transaction fees are paid by the ADR holders.  In addition, less
information is available in the United States about an unsponsored
ADR than about a sponsored ADR, and the financial information
about a company may not be as reliable for an unsponsored ADR as
it is for a sponsored ADR.  A Fund may invest in ADRs through both
sponsored and unsponsored arrangements.
Repurchase Agreements.  The Funds may enter into repurchase
agreements.  A repurchase agreement is a contract under which a
Fund acquires a security for a relatively short period (usually
not more than one week) subject to the obligation of the seller to
repurchase and the Fund to resell such security at a fixed time
and price (representing the Fund's cost plus interest).  It is the
Fund's present intention to enter into repurchase agreements only
upon receipt of fully adequate collateral and only with commercial
banks (whether U.S. or foreign) and registered broker-dealers.
Repurchase agreements may also be viewed as loans made by the fund
which are collateralized primarily by the securities subject to
repurchase.  The Fund bears a risk of loss in the event that the
other party to a repurchase agreement defaults on its obligations
and the Fund is delayed in or prevent from exercising its rights
to dispose of the collateral securities.  Pursuant to policies
established by the Fund's governing board, the investment adviser
monitors the creditworthiness of all issuers with which the Fund
enters into repurchase agreements.
Reverse Repurchase Agreements.  The Funds may enter into
reverse repurchase agreements.  A reverse repurchase agreement
involves the sale of a money market instrument by a Fund and its
agreement to repurchase the instrument at a specified time and
price.  The Fund will maintain a segregated account consisting of
U.S. government securities or cash or cash equivalents to cover
its obligations under reverse repurchase agreements with broker-
dealers and other financial institutions.  The Fund will invest
the proceeds in other money market instruments or repurchase
agreements maturing not later than the expiration of the reverse
repurchase agreement.  Under the 1940 Act, reverse repurchase
agreements may be considered borrowing by the seller.
Short Term Instruments.  The Funds may invest in short term
and money market instruments.  Money market instruments in which a
Fund may invest include:  U.S. government securities; certificates
of deposit, time deposits and bankers' acceptances issued by
domestic banks (including their branches located outside the
United States and subsidiaries located in Canada), domestic
branches of foreign banks, savings and loan associations and
similar institutions; high grade commercial paper; and repurchase
agreements with respect to the foregoing types of instruments.
Derivative contracts.  The Funds may, but need not, use
derivative contracts, such as futures and options on securities,
securities indices and currencies; options on these futures;
forward currency contracts; and interest rate and currency swaps
for any of the following purposes:
? To hedge against the economic impact of adverse changes
in the market value of portfolio securities, because of
changes in stock market prices
? As a substitute for buying or selling securities
? In the case of the Fund, to enhance total return and in
the case of the Acquiring Fund, as a cash management
technique

A derivative contract will obligate or entitle a Fund to deliver
or receive an asset or cash payment based on the change in value
of one or more securities or indices.  Even a small investment in
derivative contracts can have a big impact on a fund's stock
exposure.  Therefore, using derivatives can disproportionately
increase losses and reduce opportunities for gains.  The Fund may
not fully benefit from or may lose money on derivatives if changes
in their value do not correspond accurately to changes in the
value of the fund's holdings.  The other parties to certain
derivative contracts present the same types of default risk as
issuers of fixed income securities.  Derivatives can also make a
fund less liquid and harder to value, especially in declining
markets.
Special Risks of Using Futures Contracts.  The prices of
futures contracts are volatile and are influenced by, among other
things, actual and anticipated changes in interest rates, which in
turn are affected by fiscal and monetary policies and national and
international political and economic events.
At best, the correlation between changes in prices of
futures contracts and of the securities or currencies being hedged
can be only approximate.  The degree of imperfection of
correlation depends upon circumstances such as: variations in
speculative market demand for futures and for debt securities or
currencies, including technical influences in futures trading; and
differences between the financial instruments being hedged and the
instruments underlying the standard futures contracts available
for trading, with respect to interest rate levels, maturities, and
creditworthiness of issuers.  A decision of whether, when, and how
to hedge involves skill and judgment, and even a well-conceived
hedge may be unsuccessful to some degree because of unexpected
market behavior or interest rate trends.
Because of the low margin deposits required, futures trading
involves an extremely high degree of leverage.  As a result, a
relatively small price movement in a futures contract may result
in immediate and substantial loss, as well as gain, to the
investor.  A purchase or sale of a futures contract may result in
losses in excess of the amount invested in the futures contract.
Where a Fund enters into futures transactions for non-hedging
purposes, it will be subject to greater risks and could sustain
losses which are not offset by gains on other Fund assets.
Most U.S. futures exchanges limit the amount of fluctuation
permitted in futures contract prices during a single trading day.
The daily limit establishes the maximum amount that the price of a
futures contract may vary either up or down from the previous
day's settlement price at the end of a trading session.  Once the
daily limit has been reached in a particular type of futures
contract, no trades may be made on that day at a price beyond that
limit.  The daily limit governs only price movement during a
particular trading day and therefore does not limit potential
losses, because the limit may prevent the liquidation of
unfavorable positions.  Futures contract prices have occasionally
moved to the daily limit for several consecutive trading days with
little or no trading, thereby preventing prompt liquidation of
futures positions and subjecting some futures traders to
substantial losses.
Defensive investing.  The Funds may depart from its
principal investment strategies in response to adverse market,
economic or political conditions by taking temporary defensive
positions in all types of money market and short-term debt
securities.  If the fund takes a temporary defensive position, it
may be unable to achieve its investment goal.  A Fund may engage
in active and frequent trading, resulting in high portfolio
turnover.  This may lead to the realization and distribution to
shareholders of higher capital gains, increasing their tax
liability.  Frequent trading also increases transaction costs,
which could detract from the fund's performance.
Investment goal.  The Fund's investment goal is not
fundamental and may be changed without shareholder approval by the
fund's board of trustees.
THE PROPOSED TRANSACTION
Description of the Plan.  As stated above, the Plan provides
for the transfer of all of the assets of the Fund to the Acquiring
Fund in exchange for that number of full and fractional shares of
the corresponding class of the Acquiring Fund having an aggregate
net asset value equal to the aggregate net asset value of the
shareholder's shares held in the Fund as of the close of business
on the business day preceding the date of the Closing.  The
Acquiring Fund will assume all of the liabilities of the Fund.  In
connection with the Closing, the Fund will distribute the shares
of the corresponding class of shares of common stock of the
Acquiring Fund received in the exchange to the shareholders of the
Fund in complete liquidation of the Fund.  The Fund will be
terminated as a series of Investment Series.
Upon completion of the Reorganization, each shareholder of
the Fund will own that number of full and fractional shares of the
corresponding class of the Acquiring Fund having an aggregate net
asset value equal to the aggregate net asset value of such
shareholder's shares held in the Fund immediately as of the close
of business on the Closing Date. Each Fund shareholder's account
with the Acquiring Fund will be substantially similar in all
material respects to the accounts currently maintained by the
Fund's sub-transfer agent for such shareholder.  [Some of the
outstanding shares of beneficial interest of the Fund are
represented by physical certificates; however, in the interest of
economy and convenience, shares of the Fund generally are not
represented by physical certificates, and shares of the Acquiring
Fund issued to Fund shareholders similarly will be in
uncertificated form.  Certificates representing shares of the Fund
will be cancelled after the Closing.]
Until the Closing, shareholders of the Fund will, of course,
continue to be able to redeem their shares at the net asset value
next determined after receipt by the Fund's sub-transfer agent of
a redemption request in proper form.  Redemption requests received
by the sub-transfer agent thereafter will be treated as requests
received for the redemption of shares of the Acquiring Fund
received by the shareholder in connection with the Reorganization.
The obligations of Investment Series, on behalf of the Fund,
and Investment Funds, on behalf of the Acquiring Fund, under the
Plan are subject to various conditions, as stated therein.  Among
other things, the Plan requires that all filings be made with, and
all authority be received from, the SEC and state securities
commissions as may be necessary in the opinion of counsel to
permit the parties to carry out the transactions contemplated by
the Plan.  The Fund and the Acquiring Fund are in the process of
making the necessary filings.  To provide against unforeseen
events, the Plan may be terminated or amended at any time prior to
the Closing by action of the Trustees/Directors of either
Investment Series or Investment Funds, notwithstanding the
approval of the Plan by the shareholders of the Fund.  However, no
amendment may be made that materially adversely affects the
interests of the shareholders of the Fund without obtaining the
approval of the Fund's shareholders.  The Fund and the Acquiring
Fund may at any time waive compliance with certain of the
covenants and conditions contained in the Plan.
The Plan provides that the obligations of Investment Series
are not personally binding upon any of its Trustees, shareholders,
nominees, officers, agents, or employees, but binds only the
property of the Fund as provided in the Declaration of Trust of
Investment Series.  Moreover, no series of Investment Series is
responsible for the obligations of Investment Series under the
Plan, and all persons must look only to the assets of the Fund to
satisfy the obligations of Investment Series under the Plan.  The
execution and the delivery of the Plan have been authorized by the
Board of Trustees of Investment Series, on behalf of the Fund, and
the Plan has been signed by authorized officers of Investment
Series acting as such, and neither such authorization by such
Trustees, nor such execution and delivery by such officers, shall
be deemed to have been made by any of them individually or to
impose any liability on any of them personally.  For a complete
description of the terms and conditions of the Reorganization, see
the Plan at Exhibit A.
[SSB Citi will assume and pay all of the expenses that are
solely and directly related to the Reorganization, which expenses
are estimated to be approximately $_______.]  Shareholders have no
rights of appraisal.
REASONS FOR THE PROPOSED TRANSACTION
At a [telephonic] meeting of Investment Series' Board of
Trustees held on July 17, 2000, the Trustees, including all of the
Non-Interested Trustees, were presented with materials discussing
the benefits which would accrue to the shareholders of the Fund if
the Fund were to reorganize with and into the Acquiring Fund.  For
the reasons discussed below, the Board of Trustees of Investment
Series, including all of the Non-Interested Trustees, has
determined that the proposed Reorganization is in the best
interests of the Fund and its shareholders and that the interests
of the shareholders of the Fund will not be diluted as a result of
the proposed Reorganization.
The proposed combination of the Fund and the Acquiring Fund
will allow the shareholders of the Fund to continue to participate
in a portfolio governed by similar investment objectives and
policies that is professionally managed by SSB Citi.  The Board of
Trustees of Investment Series believes that shareholders of the
Fund will benefit from the proposed Reorganization because the
Acquiring Fund offers the following benefits:
Enhanced Flexibility with Respect to Portfolio Investments.
As stated previously the Reorganization is being proposed as part
of a broader initiative by SSB Citi to eliminate duplication and
possible confusion in its mutual fund product offerings.  SSB Citi
believes that the combination of the Funds which have
substantially similar investment objectives and policies into a
single larger fund may increase economic and other efficiencies
for investors and SSB Citi, and may ultimately result in a lower
total annual expense ratio for investors.  SSB Citi also believes
that a larger asset base could provide portfolio management
benefits such as greater diversification and the ability to
command more attention from brokers and underwriters.  In light of
the foregoing, it is anticipated that the Acquiring Fund may
achieve a higher level of return over a year's time than the Fund.
As discussed in detail herein, the total operating expenses of the
Acquiring Fund are also currently (and are projected to be
following the Closing of the Reorganization) lower than the
corresponding expenses incurred by the Fund.
Lower Fees and Expenses.  If the proposed transaction is
approved, shareholders of the Fund may benefit from lower total
fund expenses.  See "Investment Management Fees and Expenses" and
"Annual Fund Operating Expenses".
As set forth above, as of their most recent fiscal year end,
each class of shares of the Fund has higher total annual operating
expenses than the corresponding class of the Acquiring Fund.  As a
result of the Reorganization, shareholders of the Fund will be
investing in the corresponding class of the Acquiring Fund with
expenses that are currently between [0.30%] and [0.31%] lower than
those of the relevant class of the Fund.  [If the Reorganization
is consummated, the Acquiring Fund's net expense ratio for each
class of its shares is estimated to remain unchanged for the year
ending September 30, 2000.]  Going forward, shareholders should
benefit from economies of scale through lower expense ratios and
higher net income distributions over time since some of the fixed
expenses currently paid by the Acquiring Fund, such as accounting,
legal and printing costs, would also be spread over a larger asset
base.
Due to a combination of factors, including the relatively
small size of the Fund, past and prospective sales of the Fund and
current market conditions, the Trustees and management of
Investment Series believe the Fund and its shareholders would
benefit from a tax-free reorganization with [a larger] fund with
substantially similar investment objectives and policies and with
a lower total annual expense ratio.  Accordingly, it is
recommended that the shareholders of the Fund approve the
Reorganization with the Acquiring Fund.
The Board of Trustees of Investment Series, in recommending
the proposed transaction, considered a number of factors,
including the following:
(1) the Reorganization will result in a single larger
fund, which, may increase economic and other
efficiencies (e.g., eliminating one of the two sets of
prospectuses, annual reports and other documents
required for two Funds), and may result in a lower
expense ratio;
(2) a larger asset base could provide portfolio management
benefits, such as greater diversification and the
ability to command more attention from brokers and
underwriters;
(3) the positive compatibility of the Acquiring Fund's
investment objectives, policies and restrictions with
those of the Fund;
(4) the tax-free nature of the Reorganization;
(5) the potential opportunity for higher income levels and
higher annual return;
(6) the lower total annual expense ratio of the Acquiring
Fund;
(7) the terms and conditions of the Reorganization and
that it should not result in a dilution of Fund
shareholder interests; and
(8) the level of costs and expenses to the Fund of the
proposed Reorganization.
DESCRIPTION OF THE SECURITIES TO BE ISSUED
General.  The Fund is a diversified series of Investment
Series, a business trust organized under the laws of The
Commonwealth of Massachusetts on January 29, 1987, and is
registered with the SEC as an open-end management investment
company.  The Acquiring Fund is a diversified series of Investment
Funds, a corporation incorporated under the laws of the State of
Maryland on September 29, 1981, and is registered with the SEC as
a diversified, open-end management investment company.  The Fund
currently offers shares of beneficial interest classified into
three Classes:  A, B and 1.  The Acquiring Fund currently offers
shares of common stock classified into four Classes:  A, B, L and
Y and will offer Class 1 shares upon the closing of the
Reorganization.  Each Class of shares represents an identical pro
rata interest in the relevant Fund's investment portfolio.  As a
result, the Classes of each Fund have the same rights, privileges
and preferences, except with respect to:  (a) the designation of
each Class; (b) the amount of the respective sales charges, if
any, for each Class; (c) the distribution and/or service fees
borne by each Class; (d) the expenses allocable exclusively to
each Class; (e) voting rights on matters exclusively affecting a
single Class; (f) the exchange privilege of each Class; and
(g) the conversion feature of the Class B Shares.
Each share of each class of a Fund represents an interest in
that class of the Fund that is equal to and proportionate with
each other share of that class of the Fund.  Shareholders are
entitled to one vote per share (and a proportionate fractional
vote per each fractional share) held on matters on which they are
entitled to vote.
Voting Rights.  Neither Fund is required to hold shareholder
meetings annually, although shareholder meetings may be called for
purposes such as electing or removing Trustees or Directors, as
applicable, changing fundamental policies or approving an
investment management contract.  In the event that shareholders of
a Fund wish to communicate with other shareholders concerning the
removal of any Trustee or Director, as applicable, such
shareholders shall be assisted in communicating with other
shareholders for the purpose of obtaining signatures to request a
meeting of shareholders, all in the manner provided in Section
16(c) of the 1940 Act as if Section 16(c) were applicable.
Board.  The By-Laws of Investment Funds and of Investment
Series provide that the term of office of each Director/Trustee
shall be from the time of his or her election and qualification
until the next annual meeting of shareholders and until his or her
successor shall have been elected and shall have qualified.  Any
Director/Trustee of Investment Funds or Investment Series may be
removed by the vote of at least a majority of the outstanding
shares then entitled to be cast for the election of
Directors/Trustees.  Vacancies on the Boards of Investment Funds
or Investment Series  may be filled by the Directors/Trustees
remaining in office.  A meeting of shareholders will be required
for the purpose of electing additional Directors/Trustees whenever
fewer than a majority of the Directors/Trustees then in office
were elected by shareholders and to fill vacancies if less than
two-thirds of the Directors/Trustees then holding office have been
elected by the shareholders.
Liquidation or Termination.  In the event of the liquidation
or termination of the Acquiring Fund or the Fund, the shareholders
of each Fund are entitled to receive, when and as declared by the
Directors/Trustees, the excess of the assets over the liabilities
belonging to the relevant Fund.  In either case, the assets so
distributed to shareholders will be distributed among the
shareholders in proportion to the number of shares of the class
held by them and recorded on the books of the relevant Fund.  The
net asset value of the classes of shares would differ due to
differences in expense ratios.
Liability of Directors/Trustees.  The Articles of
Incorporation of Investment Funds and the Declaration of Trust of
Investment Series provide that the Directors/Trustees and officers
shall not be liable for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary
duty as a Director/Trustee or officer, except to the extent such
exemption is not permitted by law.
Rights of Inspection.  Maryland law permits any shareholder
of the Acquiring Fund or any agent of such shareholders to inspect
and copy, during usual business hours, the By-Laws, minutes of
shareholder proceedings, annual statements of the affairs and
voting trust agreements (if any) of the Acquiring Fund on file at
its principal office.  The Declaration of Trust of Investment
Series permits any shareholder of the Fund or his agent to inspect
and copy during normal business hours the By-Laws, minutes of the
proceedings of shareholders and annual financial statements of the
Fund (including a balance sheet and financial statements of
operations) on file, at its principal offices.
Shareholder Liability.  Under Maryland law, shareholders of
the Acquiring Fund do not have personal liability for corporate
acts and obligations.  Under Massachusetts law, shareholders of a
Massachusetts business trust could, under certain circumstances,
be held personally liable for obligations of a fund.  The
Declaration of Trust for Investment Series, however, disclaims
shareholder liability for acts or obligations of the Fund and
requires that notice of such disclaimer be given in each
agreement, obligation, or instrument entered into or executed by
that Fund or its Trustees.  Moreover, the Declaration of Trust
provides for indemnification out of the Fund's property for all
losses and expenses of any shareholder held personally liable for
the obligations of the Fund and the Fund will be covered by
insurance which the Trustees consider adequate to cover
foreseeable tort claims.  Thus, the risk of a shareholder of the
Fund incurring financial loss on account of shareholder liability
is considered by SSB Citi remote and not material, since it is
limited to circumstances in which a disclaimer is inoperative and
the Fund itself is unable to meet its obligations.
Shares of the Acquiring Fund issued to the holders of shares
of beneficial interests in the Fund pursuant to the Reorganization
will be fully paid and nonassessable when issued, transferable
without restrictions and will have no preemptive rights.
The foregoing is only a summary of certain characteristics
of the operations of Investment Funds and Investment Series.  The
foregoing is not a complete description of the documents cited.
Shareholders should refer to the provisions of trust documents and
state laws governing each Fund for a more thorough description.
FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSEQUENCES
The Reorganization is conditioned upon the receipt by
Investment Series, on behalf of the Fund, and by Investment Funds,
on behalf of the Acquiring Fund, of an opinion from Willkie Farr &
Gallagher, substantially to the effect that, based upon certain
facts, assumptions and representations of the parties, for federal
income tax purposes:  (i) the transfer to the Acquiring Fund of
all or substantially all of the assets of the Fund in exchange
solely for Shares and the assumption by the Acquiring Fund of all
of the liabilities of the Fund, followed by the distribution of
such Shares to Fund shareholders in exchange for their shares of
the Fund in complete liquidation of the Fund, will constitute a
"reorganization" within the meaning of Section 368(a)(1) of the
Code, and the Acquiring Fund and the Fund will each be "a party to
a reorganization" within the meaning of Section 368(b) of the
Code; (ii) no gain or loss will be recognized by the Fund upon the
transfer of the Fund's assets to the Acquiring Fund in exchange
for the Acquiring Fund Shares and the assumption by the Acquiring
Fund of liabilities of the Fund or upon the distribution (whether
actual or constructive) of the Acquiring Fund Shares to the Fund's
shareholders in exchange for their shares of the Fund; (iii) the
basis of the assets of the Fund in the hands of the Acquiring Fund
will be the same as the basis of such assets of the Fund
immediately prior to the transfer; (iv) the holding period of the
assets of the Fund in the hands of the Acquiring Fund will include
the period during which such assets were held by the Fund; (v) no
gain or loss will be recognized by the Acquiring Fund upon the
receipt of the assets of the Fund in exchange for Shares and the
assumption by the Acquiring Fund of all of the liabilities of the
Fund; (vi) no gain or loss will be recognized by the shareholders
of the Fund upon the receipt of Shares solely in exchange for
their shares of the Fund as part of the transaction; (vii) the
basis of Shares received by the shareholders of the Fund will be
the same as the basis of the shares of the Fund exchanged
therefor; and (viii) the holding period of Shares received by the
shareholders of the Fund will include the holding period during
which the shares of the Fund exchanged therefor were held,
provided that at the time of the exchange the shares of the Fund
were held as capital assets in the hands of the shareholders of
the Fund.
While neither Investment Series nor Investment Funds is
aware of any adverse state or local tax consequences of the
proposed Reorganization, they have not requested any ruling or
opinion with respect to such consequences and shareholders may
wish to consult their own tax adviser with respect to such
matters.
LIQUIDATION AND TERMINATION OF SERIES
If the Reorganization is effected, the Fund will be
liquidated and terminated as a series of Investment Series, and
the Fund's outstanding shares will be cancelled.
PORTFOLIO SECURITIES
If the Reorganization is effected, SSB Citi will analyze and
evaluate the portfolio securities of the Fund being transferred to
the Acquiring Fund.  Consistent with the Acquiring Fund's
investment objective and policies, any restrictions imposed by the
Code and the best interests of the Acquiring Fund's shareholders
(including former shareholders of the Fund), SSB Citi will
determine the extent and duration to which the Fund's portfolio
securities will be maintained by the Acquiring Fund.  [It is
possible that there may be a significant rebalancing of the Fund's
portfolio securities in connection with the Reorganization.]
Subject to market conditions at the time of any such rebalancing,
the disposition of the Fund's portfolio securities may result in a
capital gain or loss.  The actual tax consequences of any
disposition of portfolio securities will vary depending upon the
specific security(ies) being sold.
PORTFOLIO TURNOVER
The portfolio turnover rate for the Acquiring Fund (i.e.,
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)), for the four months
ended March 31, 2000 was 27%.  The portfolio turnover rate for
the Fund for the year ended October 31, 1999 was 115%.
CAPITALIZATION
Pro Forma Capitalization (Unaudited).  The following table
sets forth the unaudited capitalization of each class of each of
the Acquiring Fund and the Fund as of June 30, 2000 as adjusted

1	Assumes the Reorganization had been consummated on June 30,
2000, and is for information purposes only.  No assurance can
be given as to how many shares of the Acquiring Fund will be
received by shareholders of the Fund on the date the
Reorganization takes place, and the foregoing should not be
relied upon to reflect the number of shares of the Acquiring
Fund that actually will be received on or after such date.

Total return is a measure of the change in value of an
investment in a fund over the period covered, which assumes that
any dividends or capital gains distributions are automatically
reinvested in shares of the fund rather than paid to the investor
in cash.  The formula for total return used by a fund is
prescribed by the SEC and includes three steps:  (1) adding to the
total number of shares of the fund that would be purchased by a
hypothetical $1,000 investment in the fund all additional shares
that would have been purchased if all dividends and distributions
paid or distributed during the period had been automatically
reinvested; (2) calculating the redemption value of the
hypothetical initial investment as of the end of the period by
multiplying the total number of shares owned at the end of the
period by the net asset value per share on the last trading day of
the period; and (3) dividing this account value for the
hypothetical investor by the amount of the initial investment, and
annualizing the result for periods of less than one year.  Total
return may be stated with or without giving effect to any expense
limitations in effect for a fund.
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION ABOUT THE FUNDS
As noted above, additional information about Investment
Series, with respect to the Fund, and Investment Funds, with

INTERESTS OF CERTAIN PERSONS
SSB Citi and certain of the Acquiring Fund's service
providers have a financial interest in the Reorganization, arising
from the fact that their respective fees under their respective
agreements with the Acquiring Fund will increase as the amount of
the Acquiring Fund's assets increases; the amount of those assets
will increase by virtue of the Reorganization.
THE BOARD MEMBERS OF INVESTMENT SERIES RECOMMEND THAT THE
SHAREHOLDERS OF THE FUND VOTE IN FAVOR OF THIS PROPOSAL.

AGREEMENT AND PLAN OF REORGANIZATION
THIS AGREEMENT AND PLAN OF REORGANIZATION (the "Agreement") is

This Agreement is intended to be and is adopted as a plan of
reorganization and liquidation within the meaning of Section

"Code").  The reorganization (the "Reorganization") will consist

Fund, in exchange solely for voting shares of the corresponding
class of common stock ($.001 par value per share) of the Acquiring
Fund (the "Acquiring Fund Shares"), the assumption by Investment
Funds, on behalf of the Acquiring Fund, of all of the stated liabilities
of the Acquired Fund and the distribution of the Acquiring Fund
Shares to the holders of shares of beneficial interests in the
Acquired Fund in complete liquidation of the Acquired Fund as
provided herein, all upon the terms and conditions hereinafter set
forth in this Agreement.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and of the
covenants and agreements hereinafter set forth, the parties hereto
covenant and agree as follows:
1. TRANSFER OF ASSETS OF THE ACQUIRED FUND TO THE ACQUIRING
FUND IN EXCHANGE FOR THE ACQUIRING FUND SHARES, THE
ASSUMPTION OF ALL ACQUIRED FUND LIABILITIES AND THE
LIQUIDATION OF THE ACQUIRED FUND
1.1. Subject to the terms and conditions herein set forth
and on the basis of the representations and warranties contained
herein, Investment Series, on behalf of the Acquired Fund, agrees
to transfer to Investment Funds, on behalf of the Acquiring Fund,
all of the Acquired Fund's assets as set forth in section 1.2, and
Investment Funds, on behalf of the Acquiring Fund, agrees in
exchange therefor (i) to deliver to the Acquired Fund that number
of full and fractional Acquiring Fund Shares determined by
dividing the value of the Acquired Fund's assets, computed in the
manner and as of the time and date set forth in section 2.1, by
the net asset value of one Acquiring Fund Share, computed in the
manner and as of the time and date set forth in section 2.2; and
(ii) to assume all of the stated liabilities of the Acquired Fund, as set
forth in section 1.3.  Such transactions shall take place at the
closing provided for in section 3.1 (the "Closing").
1.2. The assets of the Acquired Fund to be acquired by the
Acquiring Fund (collectively "Assets") shall consist of all
assets, including, without limitation, all cash, cash equivalents,
securities, commodities and futures interests and dividends or
interest or other receivables that are owned by the Acquired Fund
and any deferred or prepaid expenses shown on the unaudited
statement of assets and liabilities of the Acquired Fund prepared
as of the effective time of the closing (the "Effective Time
Statement"), prepared in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles ("GAAP") applied consistently with those of
the Acquired Fund's most recent audited balance sheet.
1.3. The Acquired Fund will endeavor to discharge all the
Acquired Fund's known liabilities and obligations prior to the
Closing Date as defined in section 3.1, other than those
liabilities and obligations which would otherwise be discharged at
a later date in the ordinary course of business.
1.4. On or as soon as practicable prior to the Closing Date
as defined in section 3.1, the Acquired Fund will declare and pay
to its shareholders of record one or more dividends and/or other
distributions so that it will have distributed substantially all
of its investment company taxable income (computed without regard
to any deduction for dividends paid) and realized net capital
gain, if any, for the current taxable year through the Closing
Date.
1.5. Immediately after the transfer of assets provided for
in section 1.1 (the "Liquidation Time"), Investment Series will
distribute to the Acquired Fund's shareholders of record (the
"Acquired Fund Shareholders"), determined as of the Valuation Time
(as defined herein), on a pro rata basis, the Acquiring Fund
Shares received by the Acquired Fund pursuant to section 1.1 and
will completely liquidate.  Such distribution and liquidation will
be accomplished by the transfer of the Acquiring Fund Shares then
credited to the account of the Acquired Fund on the books of the
Acquiring Fund to open accounts on the share records of the
Acquiring Fund in the names of the Acquired Fund Shareholders.
The aggregate net asset value of Acquiring Fund Shares to be so
credited to Acquired Fund Shareholders shall be equal to the
aggregate net asset value of each class of the Acquired Fund
shares owned by such shareholders as of the Valuation Time (as
defined herein).  All issued and outstanding shares of the
Acquired Fund will simultaneously be cancelled on the books of
Investment Series with respect to the Acquired Fund, although
share certificates representing interests in shares of the
Acquired Fund will represent a number of Acquiring Fund Shares
after the Closing Date as determined in accordance with section
2.3.  The Acquiring Fund will not issue certificates representing
Acquiring Fund Shares in connection with such exchange.
1.6. Ownership of Acquiring Fund Shares will be shown on
the books of Investment Funds with respect to the Acquiring Fund.
Shares of the Acquiring Fund will be issued in the manner
described in the Acquiring Fund's then-current prospectus and
statement of additional information.
1.7. Any reporting responsibility of the Acquired Fund
including, without limitation, the responsibility for filing of
regulatory reports, tax returns, or other documents with the
Securities and Exchange Commission (the "Commission"), any state
securities commission, and any federal, state or local tax
authorities or any other relevant regulatory authority, is and
shall remain the responsibility of the Acquired Fund.
1.8. All books and records of the Acquired Fund, including
all books and records required to be maintained under the 1940 Act
and the rules and regulations thereunder, shall be available to
the Acquiring Fund from and after the Closing Date and shall be
turned over to the Acquiring Fund as soon as practicable following
the closing date.
2. VALUATION
2.1. The value of the Assets shall be computed as of the
close of regular trading on The New York Stock Exchange, Inc.
("NYSE") on the Closing Date, as defined in Section 3.1 (such time
and date also being hereinafter called the "Valuation Time") after
the declaration and payment of any dividends and/or other
distributions on that date, using the valuation procedures set
forth in the Acquiring Fund's Articles of Incorporation, as
amended, and then-current prospectus or statement of additional
information.
2.2. The net asset value of an Acquiring Fund share shall
be the net asset value per share of each class computed as of the
Valuation Time using the valuation procedures referred to in
section 2.1.
2.3. The number of the Acquiring Fund Shares to be issued
(including fractional shares, if any) in exchange for the Assets
shall be determined by dividing the value of the Assets with
respect to shares of each class of the Acquired Fund determined in
accordance with section 2.1 by the net asset value by class of an
Acquiring Fund Share determined in accordance with section 2.2.
2.4. All computations of value hereunder shall be made by
or under the direction of each Fund's respective accounting agent,
if applicable, in accordance with its regular practice and the
requirements of the 1940 Act and shall be subject to confirmation
by each Fund's respective independent accountants.

Time (a) the NYSE or another primary trading market for portfolio
securities of the Acquiring Fund or the Acquired Fund shall be
closed to trading or trading thereupon shall be restricted, or
(b) trading or the reporting of trading on such Exchange or
elsewhere shall be disrupted so that, in the judgment of the Board
of Directors/Trustees of either Fund, accurate appraisal of the
value of the net assets with respect to the Acquiring Fund Shares
or the Acquired Fund Shares is impracticable, the Closing Date
shall be postponed until the first business day after the day when

8. FURTHER CONDITIONS PRECEDENT TO OBLIGATIONS OF THE ACQUIRING
FUND AND THE ACQUIRED FUND
If any of the conditions set forth below have not been met on or
before the Closing Date with respect to the Acquired Fund or the
Acquiring Fund, the other party to this Agreement shall, at its
option, not be required to consummate the transactions
contemplated by this Agreement:
8.1. This Agreement and the transactions contemplated
herein shall have been approved by the requisite vote of the
holders of the outstanding shares of beneficial interests in the
Acquired Fund in accordance with the provisions of the Declaration
of Trust, as amended, and By-Laws of Investment Series, applicable
Massachusetts law and the 1940 Act, and certified copies of the
resolutions evidencing such approval shall have been delivered to
the Acquiring Fund.  Notwithstanding anything herein to the
contrary, neither the Acquiring Fund nor the Acquired Fund may
waive the conditions set forth in this section 8.1;
8.2. On the Closing Date, no action, suit or other
proceeding shall be pending or to its knowledge threatened before
any court or governmental agency in which it is sought to restrain
or prohibit, or obtain material damages or other relief in
connection with, this Agreement or the transactions contemplated
herein;
8.3. All consents of other parties and all other consents,
orders and permits of Federal, state and local regulatory
authorities deemed necessary by Investment Funds or Investment
Series to permit consummation, in all material respects, of the
transactions contemplated hereby shall have been obtained, except
where failure to obtain any such consent, order or permit would
not involve a risk of a material adverse effect on the assets or
properties of the Acquiring Fund or the Acquired Fund, provided
that either party hereto may for itself waive any of such
conditions;
8.4. The Registration Statement shall have become effective
under the 1933 Act and no stop orders suspending the effectiveness
thereof shall have been issued and, to the best knowledge of the
parties hereto, no investigation or proceeding for that purpose
shall have been instituted or be pending, threatened or
contemplated under the 1933 Act; and
8.5. The parties shall have received an opinion of Willkie
Farr & Gallagher addressed to Investment Series and Investment
Funds substantially to the effect that, based upon certain facts,
assumptions and representations, for Federal income tax purposes:
(i) the transfer to the Acquiring Fund of all or substantially all
of the assets of the Acquired Fund in exchange solely for Shares
and the assumption by the Acquiring Fund of all of the liabilities
of the Acquired Fund, followed by the distribution of such Shares
to Acquired Fund shareholders in exchange for their shares of the
Acquired Fund in complete liquidation of the Acquired Fund, will
constitute a "reorganization" within the meaning of Section
368(a)(1) of the Code, and the Acquiring Fund and the Acquired
Fund will each be "a party to a reorganization" within the meaning
of Section 368(b) of the Code; (ii) no gain or loss will be
recognized by the Acquired Fund upon the transfer of the Acquired
Fund's assets to the Acquiring Fund in exchange for the Acquiring
Fund Shares and the assumption by the Acquiring Fund of
liabilities of the Acquired Fund or upon the distribution (whether
actual or constructive) of the Acquiring Fund Shares to the
Acquired Fund's shareholders in exchange for their shares of the
Acquired Fund; (iii) the basis of the assets of the Acquired Fund
in the hands of the Acquiring Fund will be the same as the basis
of such assets of the Acquired Fund immediately prior to the
transfer; (iv) the holding period of the assets of the Acquired
Fund in the hands of the Acquiring Fund will include the period
during which such assets were held by the Acquired Fund; (v) no
gain or loss will be recognized by the Acquiring Fund upon the
receipt of the assets of the Acquired Fund in exchange for Shares
and the assumption by the Acquiring Fund of all of the liabilities
of the Acquired Fund; (vi) no gain or loss will be recognized by
the holders of shares of beneficial interests in the Acquired Fund
upon the receipt of Shares solely in exchange for their shares of
the Acquired Fund as part of the transaction; (vii) the basis of
Shares received by the holders of shares of beneficial interests
in the Acquired Fund will be the same as the basis of the shares
of beneficial interests in the Acquired Fund exchanged therefor;
and (viii) the holding period of Shares received by the holders of
shares of beneficial interests in the Acquired Fund will include
the holding period during which the shares of beneficial interests
in the Acquired Fund exchanged therefor were held, provided that
at the time of the exchange the shares of beneficial interests in
the Acquired Fund were held as capital assets in the hands of the
holders of shares of beneficial interests in the Acquired Fund.
The delivery of such opinion is conditioned upon receipt by
Willkie Farr & Gallagher of representations it shall request of
each of Investment Series and Investment Funds.  Notwithstanding
anything herein to the contrary, neither Investment Series nor
Investment Funds may waive the condition set forth in this section
8.5.

warranties, covenants or agreements set forth in this Agreement.

costs of investigation) to which jointly and severally Investment
Funds or any of its trustees or officers may become subject,
insofar as any such loss, claim damage liability or expense (or

the parties, or (ii) by either party if the Closing shall not have

extended by mutual agreement of the parties, or (iii) by either
party if the other party shall have materially breached its
obligations under this Agreement or made a material and
intentional misrepresentation herein or in connection herewith.
In the event of any such termination, this Agreement shall become
void and there shall be no liability hereunder on the part of any
party or their respective directors or officers, except for any
such material breach or intentional misrepresentation, as to each
of which all remedies at law or in equity of the party adversely
affected shall survive.

however, that following the meeting of the Acquired Fund
Shareholders called by the Acquired Fund pursuant to section 5.3

shareholders under this Agreement to the detriment of such
shareholders without their further approval.

Pro Forma Footnotes of Merger Between Smith Barney Small Cap Fund
and CIS Small Cap Fund.
April 30, 2000 (unaudited)

1. General

The accompanying unaudited pro forma financial statements are
presented to show the effect of the proposed acquisition of
substantially all of the assets of CIS Small Cap Fund ("the
Acquired Fund") by the Smith Barney Small Cap Growth Fund ("Fund")
in exchange for shares of Smith Barney Small Cap Growth Fund and
the assumption by Smith Barney Small Cap Growth Fund of
substantially all of the liabilities of the Acquired Fund as
described elsewhere in this proxy statement/prospectus.

Under the terms of the Agreement and Plan of Reorganization, the
exchange of assets of the Acquired Fund for shares of Smith Barney
Small Cap Growth Fund will be treated as a tax-free reorganization
and accordingly will be accounted for as a tax-free merger.  The
acquisition would be accomplished by an acquisition of the net
assets of the Acquired Fund in exchange for shares of Smith Barney
Small Cap Growth Fund at net asset value.  The unaudited pro forma
schedule of investments and the unaudited pro forma statement of
assets and liabilities have been prepared as though the
acquisition had been effective April 30, 2000.  The unaudited pro
forma statement of operations has been prepared as though the
acquisition had been effective May 1, 1999.  The unaudited pro
forma financial statements are as of the semi-annual period end of
the Acquired Fund as that date is more recent than the most
recently filed financial statements for Smith Barney Small Cap
Growth Fund.

The accompanying pro forma financial statements should be read in
conjunction with the financial statements and schedule of
investments of the Acquired Fund and Smith Barney Small Cap Growth
Fund which are included in their respective shareholder reports
dated October 31, 1999 and March 31, 2000, respectively.  The
expense of the reorganization, including the cost of the proxy
solicitation, will be borne by SSB Citi Fund Management LLC
("SSBC"), Smith Barney Small Cap Growth Fund's Investment Manager.
SSBC is a subsidiary of Salomon Smith Barney Holdings Inc., which
in turn is a subsidiary of Citigroup Inc.

2. Significant Accounting Policies

The Smith Barney Small Cap Growth Fund,a series of Smith Barney
Investment Funds Inc., a Maryland corporation is
registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended,
as a diversified, open-end management investment company.

The significant accounting policies consistently followed by Smith
Barney Small Cap Growth Fund are:
(a) securities transactions are accounted for on trade date;
(b) securities traded on national securities markets are
valued at the closing price on such markets; securities
traded in the over-the-counter market and listed securities
for which no sales price was reported and U.S. government
and government agency obligations are valued at the bid
price, or in the absence of a recent bid price, at the bid
equivalent obtained from one or more of the major market
makers; (c) securities maturing within 60 days are valued at
cost plus accreted discount, or minus amortized premium,
which approximates value;  (d) interest income adjusted for
accretion of original issue discount, is recorded on the
accrual basis; (e) realized gains or losses on the sale of
securities are calculated by using the specific
identification method; (f) dividends and distributions to
shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date; (g)
direct expenses are charged to each portfolio and each
class; management fees and general expenses are allocated on
the basis of relative net assets; (h) the Fund intends to
comply with the applicable provisions of the Internal
Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, pertaining to regulated
investment companies and to make distributions of taxable
income sufficient to relieve it from substantially all
Federal income and excise taxes; (i) the character of income
and gains to be distributed are determined in accordance
with income tax regulations which may differ from generally
accepted accounting principles; and (j) estimates and
assumptions are required to be made regarding assets,
liabilities and changes in net assets resulting from
operations when financial statements are prepared.  Changes
in the economic environment, financial markets and any other
parameters used in determining these estimates could cause
actual results to differ.

3. Pro-Forma Adjustments

The accompanying unaudited pro forma schedule of investments and
pro forma financial statements reflect changes in shares and fund
expenses as if the merger had taken place on May 1, 1999.
Adjustments were made to reduce certain expenses for duplicated
services and to reflect new investment advisory agreement as if
they had been in place as of May 1, 1999.

4. Investment Advisory Agreement and Other Transactions

SSBC acts as investment advisor of Smith Barney Small Cap Growth
Fund. Smith Barney Small Cap Growth Fund pays SSBC an advisory fee
calculated at an annual rate of 0.75% of the average daily net
assets.  This fee is calculated daily and paid monthly. SSBC also
acts as investment adviser for the Acquired Fund.  The Acquired
Fund pays SSBC an advisory fee calculated at an annual rate of
0.65% of the average daily net assets.  This fee is calculated
daily and paid monthly.  It is expected that the overall expense
ratio for the Acquired Fund's shareholders will be reduced because
of economies of scale recognized in connection with the merger.

Citi Fiduciary Trust Company ("CFTC"), a subsidiary of Citigroup,
is Smith Barney Small Cap Growth Fund's transfer agent.  Salomon
Smith Barney Inc., another subsidiary of Citigroup, acts as
Government Fund's distributor.
