INTRODUCTION

This Proxy Statement/Prospectus relates to two proposed reorganizations (each a "Reorganization" and collectively, the "Reorganizations"). The assets of Christian Stewardship Bond Index Fund and the Christian Stewardship Large Cap Equity Index Fund (each an "Acquired Fund" and collectively, the "Acquired Funds"), each a series of Capstone Christian Values Fund, Inc. ("CCVF"), would be acquired by SERV Bond Fund and SERV Large Cap Equity Fund (each an "Acquiring Fund" and collectively, the "Acquiring Funds"), respectively, each a series of Capstone Social Ethics and Religious Values Fund ("SERV"). Capstone Christian Values Fund, Inc. may be contacted at 5847 San Felipe, Suite 4100, Houston, Texas 77057 or by telephone at 1-800-262-6631.

Under an Agreement and Plan of Reorganization (a "Reorganization Agreement"), each Acquired Fund would transfer all of its assets to the corresponding Acquiring Fund in exchange for shares of beneficial interest of the Acquiring Fund and the assumption by the Acquiring Fund of the Acquired Fund's liabilities. Shares of the Acquiring Funds would then be distributed to shareholders of the respective Acquired Fund so that each Acquired Fund shareholder would receive a number of full and fractional shares of the Acquiring Fund having an aggregate value equal to the aggregate value of shares in the Acquired Fund held by such shareholder. This distribution of Acquiring Fund shares by each Acquired Fund, resulting in liquidation of each Acquired Fund is expected to occur on September 30, 2002, or such other date as the parties may agree (the "Closing Date").

Because shareholders of each Acquired Fund are being asked to approve a transaction which will result in their receiving shares of the corresponding Acquiring Fund, this Proxy Statement also serves as a Prospectus for each Acquiring Fund. SERV is an open-end management investment company organized as a Massachusetts business trust that offers series of shares, including SERV Bond Fund and SERV Large Cap Equity Fund. SERV Bond Fund's investment objective, like that of Christian Stewardship Bond Index Fund, is current income. SERV Large Cap Equity Fund's investment objective is capital growth and income, the same as for Christian Stewardship Fund Large Cap Equity Index Fund. Both the CCVF Funds and the SERV Funds are guided by similar ethical values in selecting securities in which to invest.

This Proxy Statement/Prospectus explains concisely what you should know before investing in an Acquiring Fund. Please read it carefully and keep it for future reference.

A Statement of Additional Information ("SAI") relating to this Proxy Statement/Prospectus dated September 1, 2002 containing additional information about each Reorganization and parties thereto, has been filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") and is incorporated herein by reference. The following documents are also incorporated into this Proxy Statement/Prospectus:

The current prospectus and SAI for SERV, dated January 28, 2002 (the "SERV Prospectus") and

The current prospectus for the CCVF, dated August __, 2002 (the "CCVF Prospectus").

Each Fund also provides periodic reports to its shareholders, which highlight certain important information about the Funds, including investment results and financial information. The annual report for the Acquiring Funds dated September 30, 2001 is included herewith and incorporated herein by reference. You may receive a copy of the most recent Prospectus, SAI, SAI relating to this Proxy Statement/Prospectus, annual report and any more recent semi-annual report for any of the Funds, without charge, by contacting the Funds, 5847 San Felipe, Suite 4100, Houston Texas, 77057 or by calling 1-800-262-6631.

You can copy and review information about each Fund (including each SAI) at the SEC's Public Reference Room in Washington, D.C. You may obtain information on the operation of the Public Reference Room by calling the SEC at 1-202-942-8090. Reports and other information about each Fund is available on the EDGAR Database on the SEC's internet site at http://www.sec.gov. You may obtain copies of this information, after paying a duplicating fee, by electronic request at the following E-mail address: publicinfo@sec.gov, or by writing the SEC's Public Reference Section, Washington, D.C. 20549-0102.

The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission has not approved or disapproved these securities, or determined that this Prospectus is truthful or complete. Any representation to the contrary is a criminal offense.

SUMMARY

You should read this entire Proxy Statement/Prospectus carefully. For additional information, you should consult the SERV Prospectus, the CCVF Prospectus, and the Reorganization Agreements, which are attached hereto as Appendix A-1 and Appendix A-2.

The Proposed Reorganizations. On August 9, 2002, the Board of Directors of the Company, approved Reorganization Agreements on behalf of the Acquired Funds, Christian Stewardship Bond Index Fund and Christian Stewardship Large Cap Equity Index Fund. Subject to shareholder approval, each Reorganization Agreement provides for:

the transfer of all of the assets of each Acquired Fund to the respective Acquiring Fund;
the assumption by each Acquiring Fund of all of the liabilities of the respective Acquired Fund;
the distribution of Acquiring Fund shares to the shareholders of the respective Acquired Fund; and
the complete liquidation of the Acquired Fund.

Each Reorganization is expected to be effective upon the close of business on September 30, 2002, or on a later date as the parties may agree (the "Closing Date"). As a result of each Reorganization, each shareholder of an Acquired Fund would become a shareholder of the following class of shares of the respective Acquiring Fund:

Christian Stewardship Bond Index Fund	SERV Bond Fund
Individual	Class A
Institutional	Class C

Christian Stewardship Large Cap Equity Index Fund	SERV Large Cap Equity Fund
Individual	Class A
Institutional	Class C

Capstone Asset Management Company ("CAMCO") serves as the investment adviser and administrator to each Acquiring Fund. CAMCO proposed the Reorganizations to the Directors of CCVF at a meeting on August 9, 2002 because it believes that the relatively small size of each Acquired Fund makes it difficult to manage the Fund efficiently and that neither Acquired Fund is likely to achieve the asset growth needed to assure its economic viability in the near future. As a result, CAMCO believes that continuing to operate each Acquired Fund as a stand-alone fund is no longer consistent with the best interests of each Acquired Fund's shareholders. In addition, CAMCO believes that each Acquired Fund's shareholders would benefit from the proposed Reorganization because each combined Fund would have a larger asset base to invest, which should provide greater opportunities for diversifying investments and realizing economies of scale. In addition, while there can be no assurance that the Reorganizations will result in savings in operating expenses to shareholders, each Reorganization is expected to result in lower aggregate operating expenses than those currently borne by the Acquired Funds.

PROPOSAL 1: REORGANIZATION OF CHRISTIAN STEWARDSHIP BOND INDEX FUND INTO SERV BOND FUND

In considering whether to approve the Reorganization of Christian Stewardship Bond Index Fund into SERV Bond Fund, you should note that:

The Funds have identical investment objectives and substantially similar investment strategies, although they attempt to match the performance, before expenses, of different bond indexes; however, there are no significant differences in the portfolio holdings of the Funds;

The selection criteria for each of the Funds are substantially similar;

The values-based investment policies and the socially responsible investment policies used by SERV Bond Fund are very similar to those of Christian Stewardship Bond Index Fund, although the former Fund excludes investments in the caffeinated beverage and meat packing industries, while the latter avoids abortion-related investments. Subsequent to the Reorganization, SERV Bond Fund would retain its current restrictions but would add restrictions on abortion-related investments. The values-based criteria may be adjusted from time to time. This additional restriction is not expected to have a significant effect on the structure and performance of the SERV Bond Fund portfolio.

SERV Bond Fund is significantly larger than the Christian Stewardship Bond Index Fund ($93.1 million v. $7.4 million as of April 30, 2002); and

The Reorganization is expected to result in a reduction in total operating expenses per share for each class of shares of Christian Stewardship Bond Index Fund. For example, the total operating expenses before the merger and Pro Forma estimated expenses after the merger, expressed as a percentage of average net asset value for each class of each Fund, based on the period ended April 30, 2002, are as follows:

Before the Merger	Individual Class/Class A	Institutional Class/Class C
Christian Stewardship Bond Index Fund	1.53%	1.33%
SERV Bond Fund	0.68%	0.43%
After the Merger
Pro Forma estimated expenses:	0.70%	0.45%

Approval of the Reorganization requires the vote of a majority of the outstanding shares of Christian Stewardship Bond Index Fund.

After careful consideration, the Board of Directors of Christian Stewardship Bond Index Fund unanimously approved the proposed Reorganization. The Board recommends that Shareholders of Christian Stewardship Bond Index Fund vote "FOR" the proposed Reorganization.

INVESTMENT OBJECTIVES AND POLICIES

Comparison of Investment Objectives and Strategies

The following summarizes the investment objective, strategies, and management differences, if any, between the Christian Stewardship Bond Index Fund and the SERV Bond Fund:

	Christian Stewardship Bond Index Fund	SERV Bond Fund
Investment Objective	Current Income	Current Income
Primary Investment Strategies	The Fund attempts to match the price and yield performance, before fund expenses, of the Lehman Brothers Aggregate Bond Index ("LBA"). The Fund follows certain values-based screening criteria, and avoids investing in companies whose primary business is the manufacture, operations, distribution or promotion of abortion, alcohol, gambling, pornography, or tobacco, although some of these companies may be indirectly represented in derivatives in which the Fund invests. The Fund may apply additional values-based criteria that are consistent with a Christian worldview and deemed appropriate by the investment adviser. The Fund's portfolio will be structured in a manner designed to provide performance generally comparable to that of the LBA by investing in similar types of securities having a broad range of maturities and including government, corporate, mortgage-backed, asset-backed and international dollar-denominated bonds. Under normal market conditions, at least 80% of the Fund's total assets will be invested in bonds. The instruments in which the Fund invests may have fixed, variable or floating rates of interest. The Fund may have small portions of its portfolio in cash or short-term money market instruments. The Fund may purchase futures as a temporary substitute for an investment in bonds; may purchase securities on a when-issued or forward commitment basis; and may invest in repurchase agreements.	The Fund attempts to match the price and yield performance, before fund expenses, of the Lehman Brothers Government/Credit Bond Index ("LBG/C"). The Fund follows certain socially responsible criteria in making its investments, and avoids investing in companies whose primary business is the manufacture, operation or distribution of alcohol, caffeinated beverages or tobacco products, meat packing, pornography, or casino and other gambling activities, although some of these companies may be indirectly represented in derivatives in which the Fund invests. The Fund's portfolio will be structured in a manner designed to provide performance generally comparable to the LBG/C by investing primarily in similar types of securities having a broad range of maturities and including U.S. government, corporate and foreign government securities. Under normal market conditions, at least 80% of the Fund's total assets will be invested in bonds. The instruments in which the Fund invests may have fixed, variable or floating rates of interest. The Fund may have small portions of its portfolio in cash or short-term money market instruments. The Fund may purchase futures as a temporary substitute for investment in bonds; may purchase securities on a when-issued or forward commitment basis; and may invest in repurchase agreements.

As you can see from the chart above, there is little difference between the investment objectives and strategies of the Funds. The management style and selection criteria for the Funds are substantially similar. Although each Fund seek to match the performance of a different benchmark index, the LBA Index for the Christian Stewardship Bond Index Fund and the LBG/C Index for the SERV Bond Fund, there are no significant differences between the portfolio holdings of the Funds. Further, as described earlier, the differences between the values-based investing employed by the Christian Stewardship Bond Index Fund and the socially responsible investment policies employed by the SERV Bond Fund do not cause material differences in the Funds' structure or performance.

Comparison of Principal Risks of Investing in the Funds

Because the Funds have investment objectives and policies that are substantially similar in many respects, many of the risks of investing in SERV Bond Fund are similar to the risks of investing in Christian Stewardship Bond Index Fund. However, each Fund tracks the price and yield performance of a different bond index. You may lose money on an investment in either Fund. The value of each Fund's shares may go up or down, sometimes rapidly and unpredictably. Market conditions, financial conditions of issuers represented in the portfolio, investment strategies and other factors affect the volatility of each Fund's shares. The following summarizes the principal risks of investing in the Funds.

Interest Rate Risk. The value of fixed income securities fluctuates with changes in interest rates, and if interest rates rise, the value of securities held by the Funds will fall. If interest rates fall, a Fund must invest new funds and proceeds of expired investments at a lower interest rate, reducing the Fund's yield.

Credit Risk. The issuer of a fixed income security may fail to make payments of interest and principal in a timely manner, or may default entirely. Also, when an issuer's credit rating drops or it ceases to be rated or its rating is downgraded below the minimum required for purchase by a Fund, CAMCO will determine whether it is in the best interest of the Fund to continue to hold the security, subject to a 5% limit on below-investment grade holdings by the Funds.

Lower-Rated Securities. The Funds may invest in securities rated BBB or Baa by S&P or Moody's respectively. Obligations rated BBB or Baa may have speculative characteristics and changes in economic conditions or other circumstances may lead to a weakened capacity to make principal and interest payments relative to higher grade bonds.

Prepayment Risk. The Christian Stewardship Bond Index Fund's investments in mortgage-related securities are subject to the risk that the principal amount of the underlying mortgage may be prepaid prior to the bond's scheduled maturity date. Such prepayments are more common when interest rates decline. Prepayments cause the Fund to lose anticipated return on its investment and expose the Fund to potentially lower rates of return upon reinvestment of principal.

Foreign Security Risk. The Funds may invest in international dollar-denominated bonds, which may involve greater costs than investments in U.S. bonds and expose the Fund to risks associated with investing in foreign markets, including risks that come from differences in securities markets in other countries, in tax policies, in the level of regulation and in accounting standards. Further, there may be more limited information about foreign issuers, and there is the possibility of negative governmental actions and of political and social unrest.

Index Risk. Because the Funds are index-type funds, their performance is intended to track that of the particular market their Benchmarks are designed to reflect. When the value of that index declines, the value of a Fund's shares can also be expected to decline.

Options and Futures Risks. The risk of loss in trading futures contracts in some strategies can be substantial, due both to the low margin deposits required and to the extremely high degree of leverage involved in futures pricing. As a result, a relatively small price movement in a futures contract may result in immediate and substantial loss (as well as gain) to an investor. Because the Funds will only engage in futures strategies for hedging purposes, the Funds' management does not believe that the Funds will subject to the risks of substantial loss that may be associated with futures transactions.

Performance of SERV Bond Fund

The following bar chart and table provide an indication of the risks of investing in SERV Bond Fund by showing (on a calendar year basis) changes in the Fund's annual total return from year to year and by showing (on a calendar year basis) how the Fund's average annual returns for each year since inception compare to those of the LBG/C Index. The information in the bar chart is based on the performance of the Class C shares of the Fund. The past performance of SERV Bond Fund is not necessarily an indication of how the Fund will perform in the future. Total returns include reinvestment of dividends and capital gains distributions, if any. All indices are unmanaged.

Year-By-Year Annual Total Returns as of 12/31
Class C Shares

Best Quarter: 4.85% Third Quarter 2001

Worst Quarter: -1.39% First Quarter 1999

Year-to-Date Total Return as of 6/30/02: 3.52%

The following table shows what the average annual total returns of SERV Bond Fund would equal if you average out actual performance over various lengths of time, compared to the Lehman Brothers Government/Credit Bond Index. The LBG/C Index has an inherent performance advantage over SERV Bond Fund since it has no cash in its portfolio and incurs no operating expenses. An investor cannot invest directly in an index. The table also shows returns on a before tax and after tax basis. After-tax returns are calculated using the highest individual federal marginal income tax rates and do not reflect the impact of state and local taxes.

Actual after tax returns depend on an investor's tax situation and may differ from those shown, and after tax returns shown are not relevant to investors who hold their Fund shares through tax-deferred arrangements, such as 401(k) plans or individual retirement accounts.

After-tax returns are shown for Class C only. After-tax returns for other classes will vary.

SERV Bond Fund -- Average Annual Total Returns for the periods ended December 31, 2001
		1 Year	Since Inception (9/30/98)
Class A return before taxes		7.68%	4.85%
Class C return before taxes		7.94%	5.10%
Class C return after taxes on distributions		5.65%	2.94%
Class C return after taxes on distributions and sale of fund shares		4.81%	2.98%
LBG/C Index (reflects no deduction of fees, expenses or taxes) ⁽¹⁾		8.50%	5.47%

(1)	The LBG/C Index is comprised of U.S. Treasury obligations, U.S. government agency/instrumentality obligations, investment grade corporate obligations (industrial, utility, and finance, including both U.S. and non-U.S. corporations) and non-corporates (sovereign, supranational, foreign agencies, and foreign local governments).

For a discussion regarding the performance of SERV Bond Fund for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2001, see the annual report for the SERV Bond Fund, included herewith. Additional Information about SERV Bond Fund is included in Appendix B to this Proxy Statement/Prospectus.

COMPARISON OF FEES AND EXPENSES

The following discussion describes and compares the fees and expenses of the Funds. For further information on the fees and expenses of SERV Bond Fund, see Appendix B, "Additional Information Regarding SERV Bond Fund and SERV Large Cap Equity Fund."

Management Fees

Christian Stewardship Bond Index Fund pays an annual management fee based on the Fund's average daily net assets of 0.15% on the first $500 million; 0.125% on the next $500 million; and 0.10% of assets over $1 billion. SERV Bond Fund pays an annual fee based on the Fund's average daily net assets of 0.15% of the first $500 million; 0.10% of the next $250 million; 0.075% of the next $250 million; and 0.05% of assets over $1 billion.

Consultant Fees

The Board of Trustees for SERV Bond Fund has retained Madison Portfolio Consultants ("Madison") to serve as an independent source of expertise and education for the Board and the Fund's Advisory Committee regarding (a) the general design and operation of the Fund (b) the performance of the investment adviser and other service providers, and (c) economic and other developments relevant to the operation of the Fund. The Fund pays Madison a fee (subject to a minimum of $50,000) equal to an annual rate of 0.025% of the Fund's average daily net assets up to $200,000,000; 0.01% of the next $200,000,000 in net assets; 0.005% of the next $600,000,000; and an amount to be negotiated for net assets in excess of $1 billion. Christian Stewardship Bond Index Fund does not engage an outside consultant, and therefore is not subject to this fee.

Administration Fees

Both Christian Stewardship Bond Index Fund and SERV Bond Fund pay an administration fee equal to an annual rate of 0.075% of each Fund's average daily net assets.

Distribution and Service Fees

The distribution (12b-1) and service fees for Class A shares of SERV Bond Fund are the same as those for Individual Class shares of Christian Stewardship Bond Index Fund (0.25%). Current shareholders of the Institutional Class of Christian Stewardship Bond Index Fund are subject to a distribution and service fee equal to 0.05%; however, there is no distribution and service fee for Class C shares of SERV Bond Fund.

Expense Tables

There are two types of fees and expenses when you invest in mutual funds: fees, including sales charges, you pay directly when you buy or sell shares, and operating expenses paid each year by the Funds. The following table shows the transaction fees on new investments for each Class of each Fund.

Transaction Fees on New Investments

Maximum front-end sales charge:	None
Maximum deferred sales charge:	None
Maximum sales charge on reinvested dividends and distributions:	None
Redemption fee:	None [To be updated]
Exchange fee:	None
Maximum account fee:	None

The current expenses of each of the Funds and estimated pro forma expenses giving effect to the proposed Reorganization are shown in the following table. Expenses for the Funds are based on annual operating expenses incurred by the Funds for the period ended April 30, 2002. Pro forma fees show estimated fees of SERV Bond Fund after giving effect to the Reorganization. Pro forma numbers are hypothetical, although they are estimated in good faith.

_________________________________

(1) The Funds have adopted Rule 12b-1 plans that permit each Fund to pay portions of the average net assets of certain classes of shares each year for distribution costs. These fees are an ongoing charge to each such class of shares, as noted above, and therefore are an indirect expense to you. Over time these fees may cost you more than other types of sales charges.

(2) Capstone Asset Management Company has voluntarily agreed to waive its investment advisory fees for Christian Stewardship Bond Index Fund, resulting in waivers of investment advisory fees for the year ended April 30, 2002 of $10,616. If the fee waiver was reflected in the table above, expenses for the Individual Class and Institutional Class would have been 1.53% and 1.33%, respectively. These waivers are voluntary and may be discontinued at any time; however, Capstone Asset Management Company intends to continue the waivers for the Fund until it has $15 million in assets.

Following the Reorganization and in the ordinary course of business as a mutual fund, certain security holdings of Christian Stewardship Bond Index Fund that are transferred to SERV Bond Fund in connection with the Reorganization may be sold. Such sales may result in increased transaction costs for SERV Bond Fund and the realization of taxable gains or losses for SERV Bond Fund.

Examples

The following examples show how much each Fund's expenses described above would cost you as an investor in a Fund for the illustrated time periods. The example assumes that you initially invested $10,000 in a Fund, that the Fund returns 5% each year, and that its expenses remain at a constant percentage. It also assumes that you reinvest all dividends and distributions in additional shares of the Fund. Because these assumptions may vary from your actual experience, your actual return and expenses may be different.

	1 year		3 years		5 years		10 years

SERV Bond Fund	69	44	218	138	379	241	847	542

Reasons for the Reorganization

CAMCO serves as the investment adviser and administrator to Christian Stewardship Bond Index Fund and SERV Bond Fund ("Funds"). CAMCO proposed the Reorganization to the Board of Directors of CCVF and the Board of Trustees of SERV at a meeting on August 9, 2002 because it believes that Christian Stewardship Bond Index Fund is unlikely to achieve the asset growth in the near future needed to attain a desirable level of economic efficiency. Additionally, CAMCO believes the similarity of investment objectives and strategies of the two Funds indicates that the Reorganization could be accomplished with minimal effect on the Funds' shareholders. As a result, CAMCO believes that continuing to operate Christian Stewardship Bond Index Fund as a stand-alone fund is no longer consistent with the best interests of that Fund's shareholders. In addition, CAMCO believes that the Christian Stewardship Bond Index Fund's shareholders would benefit from the proposed Reorganization because, if combined with SERV Bond Fund, the combined Fund would have a larger asset base to invest, which should provide greater opportunities for diversifying investments and realizing economies of scale. In addition, while there can be no assurance that the Reorganization will result in savings in operating expenses to shareholders, the Reorganization is expected to result in lower aggregate operating expenses than those currently borne by Christian Stewardship Bond Index Fund.

The Reorganization was presented to the Boards of Directors/Trustees for Christian Stewardship Bond Index Fund and SERV Bond Fund at a meeting held on August 9, 2002. For the reasons discussed below, the Directors/Trustees, including all of the Directors/Trustees who were not "interested persons" (as defined by the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended), determined that the interests of shareholders of each Fund will not be diluted as a result of the proposed Reorganization, and that the proposed Reorganization is in the best interests of each Fund and its shareholders.

Board Considerations

The Board of Directors of Christian Stewardship Bond Index Fund, in recommending the Reorganization for approval by shareholders, considered a number of factors, including the following:

Expense ratios and information regarding fees and expenses of the Funds;

the relative size of the Funds;

whether the Reorganization would dilute the interests of either Fund's current shareholders;

the similarity of SERV Bond Fund's investment objectives, strategies and restrictions to those of Christian Stewardship Bond Index Fund;

the costs to be borne by the Funds; and

the tax consequences of the Reorganization to Christian Stewardship Bond Index Fund and its shareholders, including the tax-free nature of the transactions.

The Directors of Christian Stewardship Bond Index Fund recommend that shareholders approve the Reorganization with SERV Bond Fund.

Capitalization

The following table shows on an unaudited basis the capitalization of each of the Funds as of April 30, 2002 and on a pro forma basis as of April 30, 2002 giving effect to the Reorganization.

	Net Assets	Net Asset Value Per Share	Shares Outstanding
Christian Stewardship Bond Index Fund
Individual Class	$2,767,245	$26.28	105,283
Institutional Class	$4,602,128	$26.28	175,129
SERV Bond Fund
Class A	$23,387,194	$24.80	943,032
Class C	$69,702,784	$24.80	2,811,006
Pro Forma - SERV Bond Fund including Christian Stewardship Bond Index Fund

Class C	$74,304,912	$24.80	2,996,166

PROPOSAL 2: REORGANIZATION OF CHRISTIAN STEWARDSHIP LARGE CAP EQUITY INDEX FUND INTO SERV LARGE CAP EQUITY FUND

In considering whether to approve the Reorganization of Christian Stewardship Large Cap Equity Index Fund into SERV Large Cap Equity Fund, you should note that:

The Funds have identical investment objectives and substantially similar investment strategies;

The selection criteria for each of the Funds are substantially similar;

The values-based investment policies and the socially responsible investment policies used by SERV Large Cap Equity Fund are very similar to those of Christian Stewardship Large Cap Equity Index Fund, although the former Fund excludes investments in the caffeinated beverage and meat packing industries, while the latter avoids abortion-related investments. Subsequent to the Reorganization, SERV Large Cap Equity Fund would retain its current restrictions but would add restrictions on abortion-related investments. The values-based criteria may be adjusted from time to time. This additional restriction is not expected to have a significant effect on the structure and performance of the SERV Large Cap Equity Fund portfolio.

SERV Large Cap Equity Fund is significantly larger than the Christian Stewardship Large Cap Equity Index Fund ($189.6 million v. $15.1 million as of April 30, 2002); and

The Reorganization is expected to result in a reduction in total operating expenses per share for each class of shares of Christian Stewardship Large Cap Equity Index Fund. For example, the total operating expenses before and after the merger, expressed as a percentage of average net asset value for each class of each Fund, based on the period ended April 30, 2002, are as follows:

Before the Merger	Individual Class/Class A	Institutional Class/Class C
Christian Stewardship Large Cap Equity Index Fund	1.42%	1.22%
SERV Large Cap Equity Fund	0.65%	0.40%
After the Merger
Pro Forma estimated expenses:	0.67%	0.42%

Approval of the Reorganization requires the vote of a majority of the outstanding shares of Christian Stewardship Large Cap Equity Index Fund.

After careful consideration, the Board of Directors of Christian Stewardship Large Cap Equity Index Fund unanimously approved the proposed Reorganization. The Board recommends that Shareholders of Christian Stewardship Large Cap Equity Index Fund vote "FOR" the proposed Reorganization.

INVESTMENT OBJECTIVES AND POLICIES

Comparison of Investment Objectives and Strategies

The following summarizes the investment objective, strategies, and management differences, if any, between the Christian Stewardship Large Cap Equity Index Fund and the SERV Large Cap Equity Fund:

	Christian Stewardship Large Cap Equity Index Fund	SERV Large Cap Equity Fund
Investment Objective	Capital Growth and Income	Capital Growth and Income
Primary Investment Strategies	The Fund pursues its objective by attempting to match the price and yield performance, before fund expenses, of a widely recognized index of large cap equities to be specified by the Fund's Advisory Committee from time to time. The Fund follows certain values-based screening criteria, and avoids investing in companies whose primary business is the manufacture, operations, distribution or promotion of abortion, alcohol, gambling, pornography, or tobacco, although some of these companies may be indirectly represented in derivatives in which the Fund invests. The Fund may apply additional values-based criteria that are consistent with a Christian worldview and deemed appropriate by the investment adviser. The Fund seeks to match performance of its selected index by investing primarily in equity securities of the type included in the index, including common and preferred stocks as well as securities convertible or exchangeable for common stock. Under normal market conditions, at least 80% of the Fund's total assets will be invested in equity securities of issuers whose capitalization is equal to or exceeds (at the time of investment) the minimum capitalization of issuers in the index. The Fund may also invest small portions of its portfolio in cash or short-term money market instruments and in repurchase agreements. The Fund may purchase futures contracts as a temporary substitute for investment in equity securities. The Fund may invest up to 10% of its total assets in S&P Depository Receipts ("SPDRs"), which are interests in the SPDR Trust, a unit investment trust that seeks to provide investment results generally comparable to the price and yield performance of the S&P 500 Index.	The Fund pursues its objective by attempting to match the performance, before expenses, of a widely recognized index of large cap equity securities to be specified by the Fund's Advisory Committee from time to time. The Fund follows certain socially responsible criteria in making its investments, and avoids investing in companies whose primary business is the manufacture, operation or distribution of alcohol, caffeinated beverages or tobacco products, meat packing, pornography, or casino and other gambling activities, although some of these companies may be indirectly represented in derivatives in which the Fund invests.

As you can see from the chart above, there is little difference between the investment objectives and strategies of the Funds. The management style and selection criteria for the Funds are substantially similar. Both Funds seek to track the performance of a widely recognized large cap equity index. Further, as described earlier, the differences between the values-based investing employed by Christian Stewardship Large Cap Equity Index Fund and the socially responsible investment policies employed by the SERV Large Cap Equity Fund do not cause material differences in the Funds' structure or performance.

Comparison of Principal Risks of Investing in the Funds

Because the Funds have investment objectives and policies that are substantially similar in many respects, many of the risks of investing in SERV Large Cap Equity Fund are similar to the risks of investing in Christian Stewardship Large Cap Equity Index Fund. The value of each Fund's shares may go up or down, sometimes rapidly and unpredictably. Market conditions, financial conditions of issuers represented in the portfolio, investment strategies and other factors affect the volatility of each Fund's shares. The following summarizes the principal risks of investing in the Funds.

Equity Risk. Equity securities have no guaranteed value and may fluctuate at times dramatically in response to various factors, including market conditions, political and other events, and developments affecting the particular issuer or its industry or geographic segment.

Performance of SERV Large Cap Equity Fund

The following bar chart and table provide an indication of the risks of investing in SERV Large Cap Equity Fund by showing (on a calendar year basis) changes in the Fund's annual total return from year to year and by showing (on a calendar year basis) how the Fund's average annual returns for each year since inception compare to those of the S&P 500 Index. The information in the bar chart is based on the performance of the Class C shares of the Fund. The past performance of SERV Large Cap Equity Fund is not necessarily an indication of how the Fund will perform in the future. Total returns include reinvestment of dividends and capital gains distributions, if any. All indices are unmanaged.

Year-By-Year Annual Total Returns as of 12/31
Class C Shares

Best Quarter: 20.90% Fourth Quarter 1998

Worst Quarter: -14.75% Third Quarter 2001

Year-to-Date Total Return as of 6/30/02: -13.78%

The following table shows what the average annual total returns of SERV Large Cap Equity Fund would equal if you average out actual performance over various lengths of time, compared to the S&P 500 Index. The S&P 500 Index has an inherent performance advantage over SERV Large Cap Equity Fund since it has no cash in its portfolio and incurs no operating expenses. An investor cannot invest directly in an index. The table also shows returns on a before tax and after tax basis. After-tax returns are calculated using the highest individual federal marginal income tax rates and do not reflect the impact of state and local taxes.

After-tax returns are shown for Class C only. After-tax returns for other classes will vary.

SERV Large Cap Equity Fund -- Average Annual Total Returns for the periods ended December 31, 2001
		1 Year	Since Inception (9/30/98)
Class A return before taxes		-12.13%	4.71%
Class C return before taxes		-11.89%	5.03%
Class C return after taxes on distributions		-12.39%	3.98%
Class C return after taxes on distributions and sale of fund shares		-7.17%	3.72%
S&P 500 Index (reflects no deduction of fees, expenses or taxes) ⁽¹⁾		-11.88%	5.11%

(1)	The S&P 500 Index consists of 500 common stocks of large companies whose securities are widely held and have an active trading market. Each security's weight in the index is proportional to its market value. Thus, the largest stocks included in the index will comprise a disproportionate portion of the value of the index. The securities in the index represent a variety of industries. Most securities in the index are listed on the New York Stock Exchange, but NASDAQ and American Stock Exchange securities are also represented.

If the fee waiver was reflected in the table above, expenses for the Individual Class and Institutional Class would have been 1.42% and 1.22%, respectively. These waivers are voluntary and may be discontinued at any time; however, Capstone Asset Management Company intends to continue the waivers for the Fund until it has $15 million in assets. As of August 1, 2002, the Christian Stewardship Large Cap Equity Index Fund reached $15 million in assets and the waiver was discontinued.

Following the Reorganization and in the ordinary course of business as a mutual fund, certain security holdings of Christian Stewardship Large Cap Equity Index Fund that are transferred to SERV Large Cap Equity Fund in connection with the Reorganization may be sold. Such sales may result in increased transaction costs for SERV Large Cap Equity Fund and the realization of taxable gains or losses for SERV Large Cap Equity Fund.

Examples

The following examples show how much each Fund's expenses described above would cost you as an investor in a Fund for the illustrated time periods. The example assumes that you initially invested $10,000 in a Fund, that the Fund returns 5% each year, and that its expenses remain at a constant percentage. It also assumes that you reinvest all dividends and distributions in additional shares of the Funds. Because these assumptions may vary from your actual experience, your actual return and expenses may be different.

Reasons for the Reorganization

CAMCO serves as the investment adviser and administrator to Christian Stewardship Large Cap Equity Index Fund and SERV Large Cap Equity Fund ("Funds"). CAMCO proposed the Reorganization to the Board of Directors of CCVF and the Board of Trustees of SERV at a meeting on August 9, 2002 because it believes that the relatively small size of Christian Stewardship Large Cap Equity Index Fund makes it difficult to manage it efficiently and that this Fund is not likely to achieve the asset growth needed to assure its economic viability in the near future. As a result, CAMCO believes that continuing to operate each Christian Stewardship Large Cap Equity Index Fund as a stand-alone fund is no longer consistent with the best interests of this Fund's shareholders. In addition, CAMCO believes that Christian Stewardship Large Cap Equity Index Fund's shareholders would benefit from the proposed Reorganization because, if combined with SERV Large Cap Equity Fund, the combined Fund would have a larger asset base to invest, which should provide greater opportunities for diversifying investments and realizing economies of scale. In addition, while there can be no assurance that the Reorganization will result in savings in operating expenses to shareholders, the Reorganization is expected to result in lower aggregate operating expenses than those currently borne by Christian Stewardship Large Cap Equity Index Funds.

The Reorganization was presented to the Boards of Directors/Trustees for each Fund at a meeting held on August 9, 2002. For the reasons discussed below, the Directors/Trustees, including all of the Directors/Trustees who were not "interested persons" (as defined by the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended), determined that the interests of shareholders of each Fund will not be diluted as a result of the proposed Reorganization, and that the proposed Reorganization is in the best interests of each Fund and its shareholders.

Board Considerations

The Board of Directors of Christian Stewardship Large Cap Equity Index Fund, in recommending the Reorganization for approval by shareholders, considered a number of factors, including the following:

Expense ratios and information regarding fees and expenses of the Funds;

the relative size of the Funds;

whether the Reorganization would dilute the interests of either Fund's current shareholders;

the similarity of SERV Large Cap Equity Fund's investment objectives, strategies and restrictions to those of Christian Stewardship Large Cap Equity Index Fund;

the costs to be borne by the Funds; and

the tax consequences of the Reorganization to Christian Stewardship Large Cap Equity Index Fund and its shareholders, including the tax-free nature of the transactions.

The Directors of Christian Stewardship Large Cap Equity Index Fund recommend that shareholders approve the Reorganization with SERV Large Cap Equity Fund.

Capitalization

The following table shows on an unaudited basis the capitalization of each of the Funds as of April 30, 2002 and on a pro forma basis as of April 30, 2002 giving effect to the Reorganization.

INFORMATION ABOUT THE REORGANIZATIONS

The Reorganization Agreements

The terms and conditions under which the proposed transaction may be consummated are set forth in the Reorganization Agreement for each proposed Reorganization. Significant provisions of the Reorganization Agreements are summarized below; however, this summary is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Reorganization Agreements, copies of which are attached in Appendix A-1 and Appendix A-2.

Each Reorganization Agreement provides for (i) the transfer, as of the Closing Date, of all of the assets of each Acquired Fund in exchange for shares of beneficial interest of the respective Acquiring Fund and the assumption by each Acquiring Fund of the liabilities of each respective Acquired Fund; and (ii) the distribution of shares of the Acquiring Fund to shareholders of the respective Acquired Fund, as provided for in each Reorganization Agreement. Each Acquired Fund will then be liquidated.

After the Reorganization, each shareholder of each Acquired Fund will own shares of the respective Acquiring Fund having an aggregate value equal to the aggregate value of each class of shares of the Acquired Fund held by that shareholder as of the Closing Date. As a result of each Reorganization, each shareholder of a class of shares of an Acquired Fund would become a shareholder of the following class of shares of the respective Acquiring Fund:

Christian Stewardship Bond Index Fund	SERV Bond Fund
Individual	Class A
Institutional	Class C

Christian Stewardship Large Cap Equity Index Fund	SERV Large Cap Equity Fund
Individual	Class A
Institutional	Class C

Until the Closing Date, shareholders of each Acquired Fund will continue to be able to redeem their shares. Redemption requests received after the Closing Date will be treated as requests received by the respective Acquiring Fund for the redemption of its shares.

The obligations of the Funds under each Reorganization Agreement are subject to various conditions, including approval by the shareholders of the respective Acquired Fund. The Reorganization Agreements also require that each of the Funds take, or cause to be taken, all action, and do all things reasonably necessary, proper or advisable to consummate and make effective the transactions contemplated by the Reorganization Agreements. The Reorganization Agreements may be terminated by mutual agreement of the parties or on certain other grounds. Please refer to Appendix A-1 and Appendix A-2 to review the terms and conditions of each Reorganization Agreement.

Tax Considerations

Each Reorganization is intended to qualify for Federal income tax purposes as a tax-free reorganization under Section 368 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. Accordingly, pursuant to this treatment, neither Acquired Fund or its shareholders, nor either Acquiring Fund or its shareholders, is expected to recognize any gain or loss for federal income tax purposes from the transactions contemplated in the Reorganization Agreements. As a condition to the closing of each Reorganization, the Funds will receive an opinion from the law firm of Dechert to the effect that each Reorganization will qualify as a tax-free reorganization for Federal income tax purposes. That opinion will be based in part upon certain assumptions and upon certain representations made by the Funds.

Immediately prior to the Reorganizations, each Acquired Fund will pay a dividend or dividends which, together with all previous dividends, will have the effect of distributing to its shareholders all of the respective Acquired Fund's investment company taxable income for taxable years ending on or prior to the Reorganizations (computed without regard for any deduction for dividends paid) and all of its net capital gain, if any, realized in taxable years ending on or prior to the Reorganization (after reduction for any capital loss carryforward). Such dividends will be included in the taxable income of the respective Acquired Fund's shareholders.

As of April 30, 2002, Christian Stewardship Bond Index and Christian Stewardship Large Cap Equity Index Fund had accumulated capital loss carryforwards of approximately $0 and $325,141, respectively. As of September 30, 2001, SERV Bond Fund and SERV Large Cap Equity Fund had accumulated capital loss carryforwards of approximately $583,427 and $0, respectively. After the Reorganization, the losses of SERV Bond Fund and SERV Large Cap Equity Fund generally will be available to SERV Bond Fund and SERV Large Cap Equity Fund, respectively to offset its capital gains, although a portion of the amount of these losses that may offset SERV Bond Fund's or SERV Large Cap Equity Fund's capital gains in any given year will be limited due to this Reorganization. Also, after the Reorganization, the losses of Christian Stewardship Bond Index Fund and Christian Stewardship Large Cap Equity Index Fund will be available to SERV Bond Fund and SERV Large Cap Equity Fund, respectively, to offset its capital gains, although a portion of the amount of those losses which may offset the SERV Bond Fund's and SERV Large Cap Equity Fund's capital gains in any given year will be limited. As a result of this limitation, it is possible that SERV Bond Fund or SERV Large Cap Equity Fund may not be able to use its losses as rapidly as it might have had the Reorganization not occurred, and part of these losses may not be useable at all. The ability of an Acquiring Fund to absorb losses in the future depends upon a variety of factors that cannot be known in advance, including the existence of capital gains against which these losses may be offset. In addition, the benefits of any of these various capital loss carryforwards currently are available only to pre-Reorganization shareholders of each Fund. After the Reorganization, however, these benefits will inure to the benefit of all post-Reorganization shareholders of the respective Acquiring Fund.

Expenses of the Reorganization

Each Acquiring Fund will pay the expenses of each respective Reorganization. [To be Updated.]

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION ABOUT THE FUNDS

Form of Organization

Each Acquiring Fund is a diversified series of SERV, an open-end management investment company organized as a Massachusetts business trust. Each Acquired Fund is a diversified series of CCVF, an open-end management investment organized as a Maryland corporation. Generally shareholders of the Acquiring Funds enjoy the same limitation on personal liability, as a result of the indemnification provisions in the Acquiring Funds' Declaration of Trust, as shareholders of the Acquired Funds obtain under applicable Maryland law. Each Fund is governed by a Board of Directors/Trustees consisting of the same five members.

Distributor

Capstone Asset Planning Company (the "Distributor"), whose address is 5847 San Felipe, Suite 4100, Houston, Texas 77057, is the principal distributor for the Funds.

Dividends and Other Distributions

Each Fund pays dividends from its net investment income and distributions from any net realized capital gains in additional shares of the Fund, with no sales charge. However, a shareholder may elect to receive income dividends in cash and capital gain distributions in additional Fund shares, or to receive all dividend and capital gain distributions in cash. Each Fund intends to declare and pay dividends quarterly. Capital gains, if any, will be paid at least annually, generally in December. If you elect to receive distributions from a Fund in cash and the U.S. Postal Service cannot deliver your checks, or if your checks remain uncashed for six months, your distribution checks will be reinvested in your account at the then-current net asset value and your future dividends and distributions will be paid in Fund shares.

Advisory Committee

Both the CCVF and SERV have appointed Advisory Committees that consult with the respective Board regarding the application of the Funds' social, ethical and religious values to their investment policies, and various other philosophical, structural and operational matters concerning the Funds. Advisory Committee members serve without fee but are compensated for expenses of attending Fund-related meetings. The Board of SERV has also retained Madison Portfolio Consultants, 400 Madison Avenue, Suite 810, New York, New York 10017, to serve as an independent source of expertise and education for the Board and the Advisory Committee regarding (a) the general design and operation of the Acquiring Funds; (b) the performance of the investment adviser and other service providers, and (c) economic and other developments relevant to the operation of the Acquiring Funds. Each of the Acquiring Funds pays Madison a fee, discussed above under the sections "Fees and Expenses" for each Proposal.

GENERAL INFORMATION ABOUT THE PROXY STATEMENT

Solicitation of Proxies

Solicitation of proxies is being made primarily by mailing of this Notice and Proxy Statement with its enclosures on or about [September 1, 2002]. Shareholders of the Acquired Funds whose shares are held by nominees, such as brokers, can vote their proxies by contacting the respective nominee. In addition to the solicitation of proxies by mail, employees of CAMCO and its affiliates, without additional compensation, may solicit proxies in person or by telephone, telegraph, facsimile or oral communication.

A shareholder may revoke the accompanying proxy card at any time prior to its use by filing with the Acquired Funds a written revocation or duly executed proxy card bearing a later date. In addition, any shareholder who attends the Special Meeting in person may vote by ballot at the Special Meeting, thereby canceling any proxy card previously given. The persons named in the accompanying proxy card will vote as directed by the proxy card, but in the absence of voting directions in any proxy card that is signed and returned, they intend to vote "FOR" the Reorganization proposals and may vote in their discretion with respect to other matters not now known to the Board of Directors of the Acquired Funds that may be presented at the Special Meeting.

Voting Rights

Shareholders of the Acquired Funds are entitled to one vote for each share held as to any matter on which they are entitled to vote and each fractional share shall be entitled to a proportionate fractional vote. Shares have no preemptive or subscription rights.

Shareholders of the Acquired Funds at the close of business on August 9, 2002 (the "Record Date") will be entitled to be present and give voting instructions at the Special Meeting with respect to their Acquired Fund shares owned as of the Record Date. As of the Record Date, ____________ shares of Christian Stewardship Bond Index Fund and ___________ shares of Christian Stewardship Large Cap Equity Index Fund were outstanding and entitled to vote.

Approval of each Reorganization requires the vote of a majority of the outstanding shares of the respective Acquired Fund.

The holders of one-third of an Acquired Fund's outstanding shares constitute a quorum with respect to the transaction of business at the Special Meeting with respect to that Fund. The holders of a majority of shares entitled to vote at the Special Meeting and present in person or by proxy, whether or not sufficient to constitute a quorum, or any officer present entitled to preside or act as Secretary of the Special Meeting may adjourn the Special Meeting without determining the date of the new Special Meeting or from time to time without further notice to a date not more than 120 days after the original Record Date.

If a shareholder abstains from voting as to any matter, or if a broker returns a "non-vote" proxy, indicating a lack of authority to vote on a matter, the shares represented by the abstention or non-vote will be deemed present at the Special Meeting for purposes of determining a quorum. However, abstentions and broker non-votes will not be deemed represented at the Special Meeting for purposes of calculating the vote on any matter. As a result, an abstention or broker non-vote will have the same effect as a vote against the Reorganization.

Each Acquired Fund expects that, before the Special Meeting, broker-dealer firms holding shares of the Fund in "street name" for their customers will request voting instructions from their customers and beneficial owners. If these instructions are not received by the date specified in the broker-dealer firms' proxy solicitation materials, each Acquired Fund understands that the broker-dealers that are members of the New York Stock Exchange may vote on the items to be considered at the Special Meeting on behalf of their customers and beneficial owners under the rules of the New York Stock Exchange.

To the knowledge of the Funds, as of ___________, 2002, no current Director or Trustee owned 1% or more of the outstanding shares of any Fund, and the officers and Directors/Trustees as a group, owned less than 1% of the shares of any Fund. [Confirm.]

Appendix C hereto lists the persons who, as of _________, 2002, owned beneficially or of record 5% or more of the outstanding shares of any class of a Fund.

Other Matters to Come Before the Special Meeting

Neither Acquired Fund knows of any matters to be presented at the Special Meeting other than those described in this Proxy Statement/Prospectus. If other business should properly come before the Special Meeting, the proxyholders will vote thereon in accordance with their best judgment.

Shareholder Proposals

Neither Acquired Fund is required to hold regular annual meetings and, in order to minimize its costs, does not intend to hold meetings of shareholders unless so required by applicable law, regulation, regulatory policy or if otherwise deemed advisable by an Acquired Fund's management. Therefore, it is not practicable to specify a date by which shareholder proposals must be received in order to be incorporated in an upcoming proxy statement for an annual meeting.

Reports to Shareholders

CAMCO will furnish, without charge, a copy of the most recent Annual Report for any of the Funds and the most recent Semi-Annual Report succeeding the Annual Report, if any, upon request. Requests for such reports should be directed to Capstone Asset Planning Company at 5847 San Felipe, Suite 4100, Houston, Texas 77057 or by calling 1-800-262-6631.

In order that the presence of a quorum at the Special Meeting may be assured, prompt execution and return of the enclosed proxy card is requested. A self-addressed, postage-paid envelope is enclosed for your convenience.

APPENDIX A-1

AGREEMENT AND PLAN OF REORGANIZATION

THIS AGREEMENT AND PLAN OF REORGANIZATION (the "Agreement") is made as of this 9th day of August, 2002, by and between Capstone Social Ethics and Religious Values Fund, a Massachusetts business trust (the "Trust"), with its principal place of business at 5847 San Felipe, Suite 4100, Houston, Texas 77057, on behalf of its series, Bond Fund (the "Acquiring Fund"), and Capstone Christian Values Fund, Inc., a Maryland corporation (the "Company"), with its principal place of business at 5847 San Felipe, Suite 4100, Houston, Texas 77057, on behalf of its series, Christian Stewardship Bond Index Fund (the "Acquired Fund").

This Agreement is intended to be and is adopted as a plan of reorganization and liquidation within the meaning of Section 368(a)(1) of the United States Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"). The reorganization (the "Reorganization") will consist of the transfer of all of the assets of the Acquired Fund to the Acquiring Fund in exchange solely for Class A and Class C voting shares of beneficial interest of the Acquiring Fund (the "Acquiring Fund Shares"), the assumption by the Acquiring Fund of all liabilities of the Acquired Fund, and the distribution of the Acquiring Fund Shares to the shareholders of 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.

WHEREAS, the Acquired Fund and the Acquiring Fund are open-end, registered investment companies of the management type or a series thereof and the Acquired Fund owns securities, which generally are assets of the character in which the Acquiring Fund is permitted to invest;

WHEREAS, the Trustees of the Trust have determined that the exchange of all of the assets of the Acquired Fund for Acquiring Fund Shares and the assumption of all liabilities of the Acquired Fund by the Acquiring Fund is in the best interests of the Acquiring Fund and its shareholders and that the interests of the existing shareholders of the Acquiring Fund would not be diluted as a result of this transaction; and

WHEREAS, the Directors of the Company have determined that the exchange of all of the assets of the Acquired Fund for Acquiring Fund Shares and the assumption of all liabilities of the Acquired Fund by the Acquiring Fund is in the best interests of the Acquired Fund and its shareholders and that the interests of the existing shareholders of the Acquired Fund would not be diluted as a result of this transaction;

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 requisite approval of the Acquired Fund Shareholders and the other terms and conditions herein set forth and on the basis of the representations and warranties contained herein, the Acquired Fund agrees to transfer all of the Acquired Fund's assets, as set forth in paragraph 1.2, to the Acquiring Fund, and the Acquiring Fund agrees in exchange therefor: (i) to deliver to the Acquired Fund the number of full and fractional Class A and Class C Acquiring Fund Shares determined by dividing the value of the Acquired Fund's net assets with respect to its Individual Class shares and Institutional Class shares, respectively, computed in the manner and as of the time and date set forth in paragraph 2.1, by the net asset value of one Acquiring Fund Class A Share and Class C Share, respectively, computed in the manner and as of the time and date set forth in paragraph 2.2; and (ii) to assume all liabilities of the Acquired Fund, as set forth in paragraph 1.3. Such transactions shall take place at the closing provided for in paragraph 3.1 (the "Closing").

1.2 The assets of the Acquired Fund to be acquired by the Acquiring Fund shall consist of all assets and property, including, without limitation, all cash, securities, commodities and futures interests and dividends or interests receivable that are owned by the Acquired Fund and any deferred or prepaid expenses shown as an asset on the books of the Acquired Fund on the closing date provided for in paragraph 3.1 (the "Closing Date") (collectively, "Assets").

1.3. The Acquired Fund will endeavor to discharge all of its known liabilities and obligations prior to the Closing Date. The Acquiring Fund shall also assume all of the liabilities of the Acquired Fund, whether accrued or contingent, known or unknown, existing at the Valuation Date, as defined in paragraph 2.1 (collectively, "Liabilities"). On or as soon as practicable prior to the Closing Date, 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 (and in no event less than 98%) 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.

1.4 Immediately after the transfer of assets provided for in paragraph 1.1, the Acquired Fund will distribute to the Acquired Fund's Individual Class Shareholders and Institutional Class Shareholders of record, determined as of immediately after the close of business on the Closing Date (the "Acquired Fund Shareholders"), on a pro rata basis within each Class, the Acquiring Fund Class A Shares and Class C Shares, respectively, received by the Acquired Fund pursuant to paragraph 1.1, and will completely liquidate. Such distribution and liquidation will be accomplished, with respect to each Class of the Acquired Fund's shares, 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 Class A and Class C Acquiring Fund Shares to be so credited to Individual Class and Institutional Class Acquired Fund Shareholders shall, with respect to each Class, be equal to the aggregate net asset value of the Acquired Fund Individual Class shares and Institutional Class shares, respectively, owned by such Acquired Fund Shareholders on the Closing Date. All issued and outstanding shares of the Acquired Fund will simultaneously be canceled on the books of the Acquired Fund. The Acquiring Fund shall not issue certificates representing the Class A and Class C Acquiring Fund Shares in connection with such exchange.

1.5 Ownership of Acquiring Fund Shares by Acquired Fund Shareholders will be shown on the books of the Acquiring Fund's transfer agent, as defined in paragraph 3.3.

1.6 Any reporting responsibility of the Acquired Fund including, but not limited to, the responsibility for filing of regulatory reports, tax returns, or other documents with the U.S. 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.

2. VALUATION

2.1 The value of the Assets shall be the value of such assets computed as of immediately after the close of business of the New York Stock Exchange and after the declaration of any dividends on the Closing Date (such time and date being hereinafter called the "Valuation Date"), using the valuation procedures in the then-current prospectus and statement of additional information with respect to the Acquiring Fund, and valuation procedures established by the Acquiring Fund's Board of Trustees.

2.2 The net asset value of a Class A and Class C Acquiring Fund Share shall be the net asset value per share computed with respect to that Class as of the Valuation Date, using the valuation procedures set forth in the Acquiring Fund's then-current prospectus and statement of additional information with respect to the Acquiring Fund and valuation procedures established by the Acquiring Fund's Board of Trustees.

2.3 The number of the Class A and Class C Acquiring Fund Shares to be issued (including fractional shares, if any) in exchange for the Acquired Fund's assets shall be determined with respect to each such Class by dividing the value of the net assets with respect to the Individual Class and Institutional Class shares, respectively, of the Acquired Fund, determined using the same valuation procedures referred to in paragraph 2.1, by the net asset value of an Acquiring Fund Class A or Class C Share, as applicable, determined in accordance with paragraph 2.2.

2.4 All computations of value shall be made by the Acquired Fund's designated record keeping agent and shall be subject to review by Acquiring Fund's record keeping agent and by each Fund's respective independent accountants.

3. CLOSING AND CLOSING DATE

3.1 The Closing Date shall be September ___, 2002, or such other date as the parties may agree. All acts taking place at the Closing shall be deemed to take place simultaneously as of immediately after the close of business on the Closing Date unless otherwise agreed to by the parties. The close of business on the Closing Date shall be as of 4:00 p.m., Eastern Time. The Closing shall be held at the offices of the Acquiring Fund or at such other time and/or place as the parties may agree.

3.2 The Acquired Fund shall direct Fifth Third Bank, as custodian for the Acquired Fund (the "Custodian"), to deliver, at the Closing, a certificate of an authorized officer stating that (i) the Assets shall have been delivered in proper form to the Acquiring Fund within two business days prior to or on the Closing Date, and (ii) all necessary taxes in connection with the delivery of the Assets, including all applicable federal and state stock transfer stamps, if any, have been paid or provision for payment has been made. The Acquired Fund's portfolio securities represented by a certificate or other written instrument shall be presented for examination by the Acquired Fund Custodian to the custodian for the Acquiring Fund no later than five business days preceding the Closing Date, and shall be transferred and delivered by the Acquired Fund as of the Closing Date for the account of the Acquiring Fund duly endorsed in proper form for transfer in such condition as to constitute good delivery thereof. The Custodian shall deliver as of the Closing Date by book entry, in accordance with the customary practices of any securities depository, as defined in Rule 17f-4 under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "1940 Act") in which the Acquired Fund's Assets are deposited and the Custodian, the Acquired Fund's Assets deposited with such depositories. The cash to be transferred by the Acquired Fund shall be delivered by wire transfer of federal funds on the Closing Date.

3.3 The Acquired Fund shall direct InCap Service Company (the "Transfer Agent"), on behalf of the Acquired Fund, to deliver at the Closing a certificate of an authorized officer stating that its records contain the names and addresses of the Acquired Fund Shareholders and the number and percentage ownership of outstanding Individual Class and Institutional Class shares owned by each such shareholder immediately prior to the Closing. The Acquiring Fund shall issue and deliver to the Secretary of the Acquiring Fund a confirmation evidencing the Acquiring Fund Shares to be credited on the Closing Date, or provide evidence satisfactory to the Acquired Fund that such Acquiring Fund Shares have been credited to the Acquired Fund's account on the books of the Acquiring Fund. At the Closing each party shall deliver to the other such bills of sale, checks, assignments, share certificates, if any, receipts or other documents as such other party or its counsel may reasonably request.

3.4 In the event that on the Valuation Date (a) the New York Stock Exchange 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 of the Acquired Fund or the Board of Trustees of the Acquiring Fund, accurate appraisal of the value of the net assets of the Acquiring Fund or the Acquired Fund, respectively, is impracticable, the Closing Date shall be postponed until the first business day after the day when trading shall have been fully resumed and reporting shall have been restored.

APPENDIX B

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION REGARDING

SERV BOND FUND AND SERV LARGE CAP EQUITY FUND

(each a "Fund," and collectively, the "Funds")

Management
Adviser and Administrator

Capstone Asset Management Company ("CAMCO"), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Capstone Financial Services, Inc. located at 5847 San Felipe, Suite 4100, Houston, Texas 77057, acts as investment adviser and administrator for the Funds. CAMCO provides investment management and administrative services to other mutual funds, and provides investment management services to pension and profit-sharing accounts, corporations and individuals. As of the __________, CAMCO manages assets in excess of $____ billion.

For its investment advisory services, CAMCO receives fees from each Fund based on the Fund's net assets. CAMCO also receives fees from each Fund for administrative services.

Advisory Committee and Consultant

The Funds' Board of Trustees has appointed an Advisory Committee that consults with the Board regarding the application of the Funds' social, ethical and religious values to their investment policies, and various other philosophical, structural, and operational matters concerning the Funds. Advisory Committee members serve without fee but are compensated for expenses of attending Fund-related meetings. The Board has also retained Madison Portfolio Consultants ("Madison"), 400 Madison Avenue, Suite 810, New York, New York 10017, to serve as an independent source of expertise and education for the Board and the Advisory Committee regarding (a) the general design and operation of the Funds, (b) the performance of the investment adviser and other service providers, and (c) economic and other developments relevant to the operation of the Funds. Each of the Funds pays Madison a fee for these services.

Buying and Selling Fund Shares

Share Price

The purchase and redemption price for shares of each class of shares of a Fund is the net asset value ("NAV") per share of the particular class that is next determined after purchase or sale order is received. NAV is generally calculated as of the close of regular trading on the New York Stock Exchange ("NYSE"), normally 4:00 p.m. Eastern time, except on days when the NYSE or the Federal Reserve wire system is closed and on the following holidays: New Year's Day; Martin Luther King's Birthday; President's Day; Good Friday; Memorial Day; Independence Day; Labor Day; Thanksgiving Day; and Christmas Day. NAV of a class reflects the aggregate assets of a Fund less the liabilities attributable to that class. The price of equity securities is determined by (i) valuing securities listed on an exchange or quoted on the NASDAQ national market system at the last reported sale price, or if there has been no sale that day, at the mean between the last reported bid and ask prices; (ii) valuing other equity securities at the mean between the last reported bid and ask prices; and (iii) valuing any securities for which market quotations are not readily available and any other assets at fair value determined in good faith by the Board of Trustees.

Debt securities (other than short-term obligations) including listed issues, are valued at the bid price on the basis of valuations furnished by a pricing service which utilizes electronic data processing techniques to determine valuations for normal institutional size trading units of debt securities, without exclusive reliance upon exchange or over-the-counter prices. Short-term securities are valued at amortized cost. If market value quotations are not readily available for an investment, the investment will be valued at fair value as determined in good faith by the Board of Trustees. For investments in securities traded on foreign exchanges that close prior to the time at which a Fund's NAV is determined, the calculation of NAV does not take place contemporaneously with the determination of the prices of those securities. If an event were to occur after the value of a Fund's investment was so established but before the Fund's NAV per share is determined that is likely to materially change the Fund's NAV, the security would be valued using fair value considerations established by the Board of Trustees.

Minimum Investment

Class A shares -- The minimum initial investment is $200, except for continuous investment plans which have no minimum. There is no minimum for subsequent purchases, except that the minimum for subsequent telephone purchase is $1,000.

Class C shares -- The minimum initial aggregate investment in the Class C shares of the Funds is $100,000 with no minimum per Fund, except that for Charitable Trusts or Grantor Trusts for which a charitable organization serves as trustee, the minimum initial investment is $5,000. The minimum subsequent investment is $1,000, except that the minimum subsequent telephone purchase is $50,000.

Share Certificates

The Funds will not issue certificates representing shares.

Telephone Transactions

Unless declined on the Investment Application, the Funds are authorized to accept orders for additional purchases, redemptions and exchanges by telephone. You will be liable for any fraudulent order as long as the Funds have taken reasonable steps to assure that the order was proper. Also not that, during unusual market conditions, you may experience delays in placing telephone orders. In that event, you should try one of the alternative procedures described below.

Frequent Transactions

The Funds reserve the right to limit additional purchases by any investor who makes frequent purchases, redemptions or exchanges that the Adviser and Administrator believes might harm the Funds. In general, more than one purchase-sale or exchange transaction per month may be viewed as excessive.

Purchasing Fund Shares

You may use any of the following methods to purchase Fund shares:

Through Authorized Dealers. You may place your order through any dealer authorized to take orders for the Funds. If the order is received by the authorized dealer by 4:00 p.m. Eastern time and transmitted to the Funds by 4:00 p.m. Central time, it will be priced at the NAV per share for the applicable class of shares on that day. Later orders will receive the NAV per share next determined. It is the dealer's responsibility to transmit orders timely.

Through the Distributor. You may place orders directly with the Funds' distributor by mailing a completed Investment Application with a check or other negotiable bank draft payable to Capstone SERV Fund, to the Funds' Transfer Agent:

Transfer Agent's Address

Capstone SERV Fund
c/o InCap Service Company
555 North Lane, Suite 6160
Conshohocken, PA 19428

Remember to make your check for at least any applicable minimum noted above. Payment for all orders must be received by the Transfer Agent within three business days after the order was placed or you will be liable for any losses resulting from your purchase order. Checks from third parties will not be accepted. Subsequent investments may be mailed to the same address. Confirmations of each purchase and transaction in the account are sent to the stockholder's address of record.

Investing by Wire. You may purchase shares by wire if you have an account with a commercial bank that is a member of the Federal Reserve System. Your bank may charge a fee for this service.

For an initial investment by wire, you must first call 1-800-695-3208 to be assigned a Fund account number. Ask your bank to wire the amount of your investment to:

Fifth Third Bank NA, ABA # 042000314
For: InCap Service Company
Account No. 729-70495
Further Credit Capstone Social Ethics and Religious Values Fund
(Insert Name of Fund and class)

Note that the wire must include your name and address, your Fund account number, and your social security or tax identification number. You must follow up your wire with a completed Investment Application. An application may be obtained by calling 1-800-262-6631 or by visiting the Fund's website at www.SERVFunds.com. Mail the application to the Transfer Agent's address (see above).

Subsequent investments may also be made by wire at any time by following the above procedures. The wire must include your name and your Fund account number.

Telephone Investment

After you have opened your account, you may make additional investments by telephone unless declined on the Investment Application. You may place a telephone order by calling the Transfer Agent at 1-800-695-3208. The minimum telephone purchase for Class A is $1,000 and the maximum is five times the NAV of your shares held, for which payment has been received, on the day preceding your order. For Class C shares, the minimum telephone purchase is $50,000 and the maximum is five times the NAV of your shares held, for which payment has been received on the day preceding your order.

Your telephone purchases will be priced at the NAV next determined after your call. Payment for your order must be received within three business days. Mail your payment to the Transfer Agent's address (see above). If your payment is not received within three business days, you will be liable for any losses caused by your purchase.

Automated Clearing House ("ACH") Investment

You may make subsequent investments through ACH to Fifth/Third Bank by selecting this option on the Investment Application.

Pre-Authorized Investment

If you hold or are purchasing Class A shares, you may arrange to make regular monthly investments of at least $25 automatically from your bank account by completing the Pre-Authorized Payment section of the Investment Application.

Tax-Deferred Retirement Plans

Fund shares may be used for virtually all types of tax-deferred retirement plans, including traditional, Roth and Coverdale Education Savings Accounts and Simplified Employee Pension Plans. For more information, call 1-800-262-6631.

Redeeming Fund Shares

You may redeem your Fund shares on any business day using one of the following procedures:

Through Authorized Dealers -- You may request a redemption through any broker-dealer authorized to take orders for the Fund. The broker-dealer will place the redemption order by telephone or telegraph directly with the Funds' distributor and your share price will be the NAV next determined after the order is received. The Funds do not charge a fee for these redemptions, but a dealer may impose a charge for this service. Redemption proceeds will be paid within three days after the Transfer Agent receives a redemption in proper form.

Through the Distributor -- you may redeem your shares by writing to the Transfer Agent's address (see "Purchasing Fund Shares" above). You will generally receive a check for your redemption amount within a week. The Funds do not charge any fee for redemptions. If you request the proceeds to be sent to your address of record, you generally will not need a signature guarantee. A signature guarantee will be required if: you want the proceeds mailed to a different address or to be paid to someone other than the record owner; or you may to transfer ownership of the shares. A signature guarantee can be provided by most banks, broker-dealers and savings associations as well as by some credit unions.

Redemption of Shares Purchased by Check

Redemptions of amounts purchased by check may be withheld until the purchase check has cleared, which may take up to 15 days from the purchase date.

Expedited Redemption

If you want to redeem at least $1000 of Fund shares and have not declined expedited redemption on the Investment Application currently on file with the Transfer Agent, you may request that your redemption proceeds be mailed or wire to a broker-dealer or commercial bank that you previously designated on the Investment Application by calling the Transfer Agent at 1-800-695-3208. Redemption proceeds will be forwarded the next day to the designated entity. You are urged to place your redemption request early in the day to permit efficient management of the Funds' cash reserves. The Funds do not impose a fee for this service, but they (and their service providers) reserve the right to modify or not to offer this service in the future. They will attempt to give shareholders reasonable notice of any changes.

Systematic Withdrawal

If you hold Class A shares, you may arrange for periodic withdrawals of $50 or more if you have invested at least $5,000 in a Fund. Your withdrawals under this plan may be monthly, quarterly, semi-annual, or annual. If you elect this plan, you must elect to have all your dividends and distributions reinvested in shares of the particular Fund. Note that payments under this plan come from redemptions of your Fund shares. The payments do not represent a yield from a Fund and may be a return of capital, thus depleting your investment. Payments under this plan will terminate when all your shares have been redeemed. The number of payments you receive will depend on the size of your investment, the amount and frequency of your withdrawals, and the yield and share price of the Fund, which can be expected to fluctuate.

You may terminate this plan at any time by writing the Transfer Agent. You continue to have the right to redeem your shares at any time. The cost of the plan is borne by the Funds and there is no direct charge to you.

Redemption in Kind

If you request a redemption in excess of $1 million, each Fund reserves the right to pay any portion of the redemption proceeds in securities from the Fund's portfolio rather than in cash, in accordance with applicable legal requirements. In that case, you will bear any brokerage costs imposed when you sell those securities.

Redemption Suspensions or Delays

Although you may normally redeem your shares at any time, redemptions may not be permitted at times when the NYSE is closed for unusual circumstances, or when the Securities and Exchange Commission allows redemptions to be suspended.

Exchanging Fund Shares

You may exchange your shares for shares of the same class of another Fund at a price based on the respective NAVs of each Fund. There is no sales charge or other fee. Please read the information in the Funds' prospectus concerning the Fund into which you wish to exchange. Your exchange must satisfy the applicable minimum investment and other requirements for the class of shares of the Fund into which you wish to exchange. The Fund into which you are exchanging must be available for sale in your state, and the exchange privilege may be amended or terminated upon 60 days' notice to shareholders.

You may place an exchange order by: mailing your exchange order to the Transfer Agent's address; or telephoning 1-800-695-3208. Telephone exchange orders may be placed from 9:30 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. Eastern time on any business day. You may decline this option on the Investment Application.

Remember that your exchange involves a sale of shares, with possible tax consequences. See "Dividends, Distributions, and Taxes."

Dividends, Distributions and Taxes

Dividends and Distributions

Each Fund pays dividends from its net investment income and distributions from any net realized capital gains in additional shares of the Fund, with no sales charge. However, you may elect on the Investment Application to: receive income dividends in cash and capital gain distributions in additional Fund shares; or receive all dividend and capital gain distributions in cash.

The Funds intends to declare and pay dividends of its net investment income quarterly. Capital gains, if any, will be paid at least annually, generally in December.

Tax Treatment of Dividends, Distributions and Redemptions

If you are a taxable investor, you will generally be subject to federal income tax on dividend and distribution payments you receive from the Funds, as well as any gain realized when you sell (redeem) or exchange shares of a Fund. If you hold shares through a tax-deferred account (such as a retirement plan), you generally will not owe tax until you receive a distribution from the account.

The Funds will let you know each year which amounts of your dividend and distribution payments are subject to taxation as ordinary income or as long-term capital gain. The tax treatment of capital gains distributions from a Fund does not depend on how long you have held your shares or on whether you receive payments in cash or additional shares. The tax treatment of any gain or loss when you sell shares of a Fund will depend on how long you held those shares.

Some dividends paid by a Fund may be taxable in the year in which they are declared, even if they are paid or appear on your account statement the following year.

You should consult your tax adviser about any special circumstances that could affect the federal, state and local tax treatment of your Fund distributions and transactions.

Part C

Item 15. Indemnification

The Declaration of Trust of the Registrant includes the
following:
Section 4.3 Mandatory Indemnification.

(a) Subject to the exceptions and limitations contained
in paragraph (b) below:

(i) every person who is, or has been, a Trustee or
officer of SERV shall be indemnified by SERV to the fullest extent
permitted by law against all liability and against all expenses reasonably
incurred or paid by him in connection with any claim, action, suit or
proceeding in which he becomes involved as a party or otherwise by virtue
of his being or having been a Trustee or officer and against amounts paid
or incurred by him in the settlement thereof;
(ii) the words "claim," "action,"
"suit," or "proceeding" shall apply to all claims,
actions suits or proceedings (civil, criminal, administrative or other,
including appeals), actual or threatened; and the words
"liability" and "expenses" shall include, without
limitation, attorneys' fees, costs, judgments, amounts paid in settlement,
fines, penalties and other liabilities.

(b) No indemnification shall be provided hereunder to a
Trustee or officer:

(i) against any liability to SERV, a Series thereof, or
the Shareholders by reason of a final adjudication by a court or other
body before which a proceeding was brought that he engaged in willful
misfeasance, bad faith, gross negligence or reckless disregard of the
duties involved in the conduct of his office;
(ii) with respect to any matter as to which he shall
have been finally adjudicated not to have acted in good faith in the
reasonable belief that his action was in the best interest of SERV;
(iii) in the event of a settlement or other disposition
not involving a final adjudication as provided in paragraph (b)(i) or (b)(ii)
resulting in a payment by a Trustee or officer, unless there ahs been a
determination that such Trustee or officer did not engage in willful
misfeasance, bad faith, gross negligence, or reckless disregard of the
duties involved in the conduct of his office:

(A) by the court or other body approving the
settlement or other disposition;
(B) based upon a review of readily available facts
(as opposed to a full trial-type inquiry) by (x) vote of a majority of
the Disinterested Trustees acting on the matter (provided that a
majority of the Disinterested Trustees then in office act on the matter)
or (y) written opinion of independent legal counsel.

(c) The rights of the indemnification herein provided may
be insured against by policies maintained by SERV, shall be severable, shall
not affect any other rights to which any Trustee or officer may now or
hereafter be entitled, shall continue as to a person who has ceased to be a
Trustee or officer and shall inure to the benefit of the heirs, executors,
administrators and assigns of such person. Nothing contained herein shall
affect any rights to indemnification to which personnel of SERV other than
Trustees and officers may be entitled by contract or otherwise under law.
(d) Expenses of preparation and presentation of a defense
to any claim, action, suit or proceeding of the character described in
paragraph (a) of this Section 4.3 may be advanced by SERV prior to final
disposition thereof upon receipt of an undertaking by or on behalf of the
recipient to repay such amount if it is ultimately determined that he is not
entitled to indemnification under this Section 4.3, provided that either:

(i) such undertaking is secured by a surety bond or
some other appropriate security provided by the recipient, or SERV shall
be insured against losses arising out of such advances; or
(ii) a majority of the Disinterested Trustees acting on
the matter (provided that a majority of the Disinterested Trsutees act on
the matter) or an independent legal counsel in a written opinion shall
determine, based upon a review of readily available facts (as opposed to a
full trial-type inquiry), that there is reason to believe that the
recipient ultimately will be found entitled to indemnification.

As used in this Section 4.3, a "Disinterested
Trustee" is one who is not (i) an Interested Person of SERV (including
anyone who has been exempted from being an Interested Person by any result,
regulation or order of the Commission), or (ii) involved in the claim, action,
suit or proceeding.
Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the
Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to trustees, officers and controlling
persons of the Registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise,
the Registrant has been advised by the Securities and Exchange Commission that,
in the opinion of the Commission, such indemnification is against public policy
as expressed in the Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a
claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by
the Registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a trustee, officer or controlling
person of the Registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or
proceeding) is asserted by such trustee, officer or controlling person in
connection with the securities being registered, the Registrant will, unless in
the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent,
submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether or not such
indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Act and will
be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
To the extent that the Declaration of Trust, By-Laws or any
other instrument pursuant to which the Registrant is organized or administered
indemnify any trustee or officer of the Registrant, or that any contract or
agreement indemnifies any person who undertakes to act as investment adviser or
principal underwriter to the Registrant, any such provision protecting or
purporting to protect such persons against any liability to the Registrant or
its security holders to which he would otherwise be subject by reason of willful
misfeasance, bad faith, or gross negligence, in the performance of his duties,
or by reason of his reckless disregard of his duties pursuant to the conduct of
his office or obligations pursuant to such contract or agreement, will be
interpreted and enforced in a manner consistent with the provisions of Sections
17(h) and (i) of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, and Release No.
IC-11330 issued thereunder.
