          Dear Shareholders of the Arbor U.S. Government Securities Money Fund
          and Arbor Prime Obligations Fund ("the Crestar/Arbor Funds"):


          You recently received a combined proxy/prospectuses package containing
          a proxy ballot and related information concerning a special meeting of
          the Crestar/Arbor Funds Shareholders.

          The ballot enclosed in that original package contained incorrect share
          ownership information, due to a decimal point error.

          ENCLOSED IN THIS PACKAGE IS A CORRECTED BALLOT FOR YOU TO USE.  If you
          have not already mailed your original ballot, please disregard that
          one and use the enclosed corrected one.

          If you already have mailed your ballot back, please re-vote your
          shares and mail back the enclosed ballot in the return envelope
          provided.

          If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to call us.  We can
          be reached on 1-800-752-1867.

          We sincerely apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused you
          and appreciate your timely response to this letter.



          Sincerely,


          The Crestar/Arbor Funds
