Applicant's Representations

    1. Applicant is an open-end management investment company that was 
organized as a common law trust under the laws of New York. On December 
11, 1989, applicant registered under the Act as an investment company. 
Applicant has not filed a registration statement to register its shares 
under the Securities Act of 1933.
    2. Yankee Funds, a registered investment company was composed of 
several investment portfolios, including a money market portfolio (the 
``Yankee Money Market Fund''). The Yankee Money Market Fund invested in 
applicant and owned substantially all of its units of beneficial 
interest. The three holders of beneficial interest in the Yankee Money 
Market Fund gave notice by May 10, 1993, that they wanted to redeem 
their entire holdings. On May 10, 1993, to satisfy the redemption 
request, a complete redemption distribution totalling $65,585,130 was 
paid by applicant to the Yankee Money Market Fund in complete 
liquidation of its interest. On February 22, 1993, the board of 
trustees of applicant authorized the actions necessary to effect the 
termination of applicant as an investment company.
    3. The expenses applicant incurred in connection with the 
liquidation included professional and custodial fees and expenses 
totalling $30,750. Certain persons connected to applicant, including 
its investment adviser, agreed to assume applicant's deferred 
unamortized organization expenses as of October 31, 1991. Because these 
persons assumed the organizational expenses, applicant had no 
outstanding deferred organizational expenses upon liquidation.
    4. Applicant has no debts or other liabilities that remain 
outstanding. Applicant is not a party to any litigation or 
administrative proceeding.
    5. Applicant is not now engaged, nor does it propose to engage, in 
any business activities other than those necessary for the winding up 
of its affairs.

    For the Commission, by the Division of Investment Management, 
pursuant to delegated authority.
Margaret H. McFarland,
Deputy Secretary.
