New Investment Management Services Agreement ("IMS Agreement") with IDS Financial Corporation ("IDS"). Except for shareholders of Strategy - Income, Strategy - Short-Term Income and Strategy - Worldwide Growth, shareholders approved a new IMS Agreement with IDS. For the non-money market funds, the fee will no longer be based in part on the assets of all non-money market funds in the IDS MUTUAL FUND GROUP (the "GROUP"). Instead, the fee rate will be based on the average daily net assets of each individual fund, decreasing as the fund increases in size.

The IMS Agreement also will be modified to reflect the fact that, in the future, IDS may manage master funds that are not part of the GROUP. Multiple Classes of Shares. The publicly offered funds, except for Tax-Free Money, intend to offer multiple classes of shares. Each fund will offer three classes of shares: o Class A - sold with a front-end sales charge and a service fee; o Class B - sold with a contingent deferred sales charge("CDSC"), a 12b-1 fee and a service fee; o Class Y - for certain institutional shareholders meeting eligibility requirements, sold with no sales charge, no 12b-1 fee and no service fee. Multiple classes of shares are expected to be implemented in March 1995. Most shareholders of funds currently sold with a front-end sales charge will receive shares of Class A. Most shareholders of Strategy-Aggressive Equity and Strategy - Equity will receive shares of Class B. Shareholders of those two funds who are eligible for a waiver of the CDSC will receive shares of Class A. Institutional shareholders who meet eligibility requirements will receive shares of Class Y. Prior to offering multiple classes, the Board of Directors/Trustees (the "Board") will approve a new 12b-1 plan for Class B shares with a fee equal to 0.75% of average daily net assets, a new shareholder servicing agreement for both Class A and Class B shares with a fee equal to 0.175% of average daily net assets, a new transfer agency agreement for the new classes and a new Administration and PAGE 4 Accounting Agreement (the "Admin Agreement"). Fees under the Admin Agreement range from a high of 0.06% to a low of 0.02%, decreasing as assets increase.These changes, including the changes in the IMS Agreement, will be effective at the time multiple classes of shares are offered. 2. Name Changes. Shareholders of Equity Plus Fund approved a change in the name of the fund to Equity Select Fund. The Board will change the names of Strategy - Aggressive Equity Fund and Strategy - Equity Fund to Strategy Aggressive Fund and Equity Value Fund at the time multiple classes are offered. 3. Diversification Status. Shareholders of Precious Metals approved a change in the status of the fund from diversified to non-diversified. While concentration of investments in fewer issuers may result in more risk, the change will provide the portfolio manager with more flexibility in investing the fund's assets. 4. New 12b-1 Plan. Shareholders of Strategy - Aggressive Equity and Strategy - Equity approved a new 12b-1 plan. Under the new plan, each fund will pay a fee of 0.75% of average daily net assets. In addition, each fund will pay a service fee of 0.175% of average daily net assets. This change will be effective at the time multiple classes of shares are offered as discussed above. 5. Mergers. Shareholders of Strategy - Income, Strategy - Short- Term Income and Strategy - Worldwide Growth approved the merger of those funds into other funds in the GROUP. The Strategy funds originally were developed to give investors a CDSC option for paying the sales charge. The Strategy Funds were modeled on existing IDS funds that imposed a front-end sales charge. Once multiple classes of shares are implemented, as discussed in paragraph 1, there will no longer be any reason to have separate funds and the Strategy funds will be merged into the comparable IDS funds in March 1995. Income will be merged with Bond. Short-Term Income will be merged with Federal Income. Worldwide Growth will be merged with International. 6. Master-Feeder Investment Policy. At some future time, the Board of Directors/Trustees (the "Board") may determine that it is in the best interest of the Fund and its shareholders to create what is known as a master/feeder fund structure. This structure allows several investment companies and other investment groups, including pension plans and trust accounts, to have their investment portfolios managed as a combined pool called the master fund. The purpose of the structure is to achieve operational efficiencies. Except for shareholders of Strategy - Income, Strategy - Short-Term Income and Strategy - Worldwide Growth, shareholders approved a new investment policy permitting the structure if the Board decides it is appropriate. The section of the prospectus titled "How the fund is organized" is modified by adding the following: At some time in the future, the Board of the fund may decide to convert to a master/feeder structure. If the Board makes that decision, the fund would seek to achieve its goal by investing all of its assets in another PAGE 5 investment company with the same goal as the fund, rather than investing directly in a portfolio of securities. 7. Changes in Fundamental Policies. Except for shareholders of Cash Management, Strategy - Income, Strategy - Short-Term Income, Strategy - Worldwide Growth andTax-Free Money, shareholders changed the status of a number of policies from fundamental (changeable only with shareholder approval) to nonfundamental (changeable by the Board without shareholder vote). Policies changed include those regarding: buying on margin or selling short; pledging assets as collateral; investing in issuers with less than 3 years of operating history; investing in other investment companies; investing for purposes of exercising control or management; investing in oil, gas or mineral exploration or development programs; investing in warrants; investing in illiquid securities; and investing in interest rate futures contracts. In addition, shareholders approved a revision in the fundamental policy on making loans to permit the fund to make cash loans up to 5% of its total assets; and a revision in the policy on investing in real estate to clarify that the Fund may invest in securities or other instruments backed by real estate or securities of companies engaged in the real estate business; and a revision in the policy on investing in commodities to clarify that the Fund may invest in securities or other instruments backed by, or whose value is derived from, physical commodities. Extra Income shareholders voted to eliminate the policy on concentrating in electric utility securities. NAME CHANGES OF ADVISOR, DISTRIBUTOR AND CUSTODIAN Effective January 1, 1995, the name of IDS Financial Corporation, the Funds' investment adviser and transfer agent, will be changed to American Express Financial Corporation. The name of IDS Financial Services Inc., the Funds' distributor, will be changed to American Express Financial Advisors Inc. For those Funds for which IDS Trust Company serves as custodian, the name of the custodian will be changed to American Express Trust Company.
