Provide your bank or broker with the following wire instructions:

If you are opening a new account by wire, you must first call California Investment Trust Fund Group at (800) 225-8778 to obtain an account number.

In order to make your order effective, we must have your order in good form. Accordingly, your purchase will be processed at the net asset value next calculated after your order has been received by the Funds’ agent. You will begin to earn dividends as of the first business day following the day of your purchase.

How do I initiate an Automatic Investment Plan (AIP)?
Using the Funds' Automatic Investment Plan (AIP), you may arrange to make additional purchases (minimum $100 per purchase) automatically through electronic funds transfer (EFT) from your checking or savings account. Your bank must be a member of the National Automated Clearing House Association (NACHA) for you to take part in this program. You can terminate your participation program with at least ten-day's written notice.

There is no fee to participate in this program; however, a service fee of $25.00 will be deducted from your account for any AIP purchase request that does not clear your designated checking or savings account for any of the following:

Non-sufficient funds (NSF)
Closed Account (If prior to notifying California Investment Trust requesting to terminate the plan)
Any manner preventing withdrawal of the funds (If prior to notifying California Investment Trust requesting to terminate the plan)

You can obtain additional information concerning this program, including the application, from our Forms section of this site.

Please note: the share prices of the Funds are subject to change. Before undertaking any plan for systematic investment, you should keep in mind that such a program does not assure a profit or protect against a loss.

We reserve the right to suspend the offering of shares of any of the Funds for a period of time and to reject any specific purchase order in whole or in part.

To avoid these possible delays (up to 15 days) you should consider making your investment by wire, following the instructions as provided in the prospectus.

If you have not selected telephone redemption or transfer privileges, you must send a "signature guaranteed letter of instruction" specifying:

Name of the Fund
Number of shares to be sold
Your name
Your account number

Please send the letter to our offices. If you have additional questions, please contact us at (800) 225-8778.
