Future performance of the funds will vary and may be significantly

different from the returns shown above. See the Summary of the Thrift

Savings Plan for detailed information about the funds and their

investment risks. The monthly returns of the TSP Funds represent net

earnings for the month after deduction of accrued administrative

expenses and, except for the G Fund, after deduction of trading costs and

accrued investment management fees as well. The returns for the four

indexes shown do not include any of these deductions.

* Implemented May 2001.
