Notes to Financial Statements (Unaudited) Blue Chip Investor Fund June 30, 2002 1.) SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES Blue Chip Investor Fund (the "Fund") is a non-diversified series of the Blue Chip Investor Fund (the "Trust"), a management investment company. The Trust was organized in Ohio as a business trust on November 1, 2001 and may offer shares of beneficial interest in a number of separate series, each series representing a distinct fund with its own investment objectives and policies. At present, the Fund is the only series authorized by the Trust. The Fund's primary investment objective is to seek long-term growth of capital. Significant accounting policies of the Fund are presented below: SECURITY VALUATION: Securities that are traded on any exchange or on the NASDAQ over-the-counter market are valued at the last quoted sale price. Lacking a last sale price, a security is valued at its last bid price except when, in the Adviser's opinion, the last bid price does not accurately reflect the current value of the security. All other securities for which over-the-counter market quotations are readily available are valued at their last bid price. When market quotations are not readily available, when the Adviser determines the last bid price does not accurately reflect the current value or when restricted securities are being valued, such securities are valued as determined in good faith by the Adviser, in conformity with guidelines adopted by and subject to review of the Board of Trustees. Fixed income securities generally are valued by using market quotations, but may be valued on the basis of prices furnished by a pricing service when the Adviser believes such prices accurately reflect the fair market value of such securities. A pricing service utilizes electronic data processing techniques based on yield spreads relating to securities with similar characteristics to determine prices for normal institutional-size trading units of debt securities without regard to sale or bid prices. If the Adviser decides that a price provided by the pricing service does not accurately reflect the fair market value of the securities, when prices are not readily available from a pricing service or when restricted or illiquid securities are being valued, securities are valued at fair value as determined in good faith by the Adviser, in conformity with guidelines adopted by and subject to review of the Board of Trustees. Short term investments in fixed income securities with maturities of less than 60 days when acquired, or which subsequently are within 60 days of maturity, are valued by using the amortized cost method of valuation, which the Board of Trustees has determined will represent fair value. SHARE VALUATION: The net asset value per share of the Fund is calculated daily by dividing the total value of the Fund's assets, less liabilities, by the number of shares outstanding, rounded to the nearest cent. The offering and redemption price per share is equal to the net asset value per share. SECURITY TRANSACTION TIMING: Security transactions are recorded on the dates transactions are entered into (the trade dates). Dividend income and distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Interest income is recorded as earned. The Fund uses the identified cost basis in computing gain or loss on sale of investment securities. Discounts and premiums on securities purchased are amortized over the life of the respective securities. INCOME TAXES: It is the Fund's policy to distribute annually, prior to the end of the calendar year, dividends sufficient to satisfy excise tax requirements of the Internal Revenue Service. This Internal Revenue Service requirement may cause an excess of distributions over the book year-end accumulated income. In addition, it is the Fund's policy to distribute annually, after the end of the fiscal year, any remaining net investment income and net realized capital gains. 2002 Semi-Annual Report 5

Notes to the Financial Statements (Unaudited) - continued ESTIMATES: The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. OTHER: Generally accepted accounting principles require that permanent financial reporting tax differences relating to shareholder distributions be reclassified to paid in capital. 2.) INVESTMENT ADVISORY AGREEMENT The Fund has entered into an investment advisory agreement with Check Capital Management, Inc. (the "Adviser"). For its services, the Adviser receives an annual investment management fee from the Fund of 1.00% of the average daily net assets of the Fund. As a result of the above calculation, for the period since inception on January 1, 2002 and ended June 30, 2002, the Adviser received management fees totaling $11,983. The Adviser has agreed to waive all management fees and reimburse all expenses to maintain total annual operating expenses of the Fund at 0.00% of its average daily net assets through December 31, 2002. For calendar years 2003 and 2004, the adviser has agreed to waive management fees and reimburse expenses to the extent necessary to maintain total annual operating expenses of the Fund at 1.50% of its average daily net assets. For the period from January 1, 2002 to and ended June 30, 2002 the Adviser reimbursed management fees of $11,983 and expenses of $49,105 to maintain total annual operating expenses of the Fund at 0.00%. 3.) RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS Steve Check is the control person of the Adviser of the Fund. This individual receives benefits from the Adviser resulting from management fees paid to the Adviser of the Fund. 4.) CAPITAL STOCK The Trust is authorized to issue an unlimited number of shares without par value. Paid in capital at June 30, 2002 was $7,698,791 representing 76,085 shares outstanding. 5.) PURCHASES AND SALES OF SECURITIES For the period of January 1, 2002 to the period ended June 30, 2002, purchases and sales of investment securities other than U.S. Government obligations and short-term investments aggregated $7,885,830 and $375,136, respectively. Purchases and sales of U.S. Government obligations aggregated $0 and $0, respectively. 6.) SECURITY TRANSACTIONS For Federal income tax purposes, the cost of investments owned at June 30, 2002 was $10,975,764. At June 30, 2002, the composition of unrealized appreciation (the excess of value over tax cost) and depreciation (the excess of tax cost over value) was as follows: Appreciation (Depreciation) Net Appreciation (Appreciation) $96,750 ($439,150) ($342,400) 7.) CONTROL OWNERSHIP The beneficial ownership, either directly or indirectly, of more than 25% of the voting securities of a fund creates a presumption of control of the fund, under Section 2(a)(9) of the Investment Company Act of 1940. As of June 30, 2002, Charles Schwab & Co. Inc. held for the benefit of others, in aggregate, more than 93% of the Blue Chip Investor Fund.Semi-Annual Report 6 2002 Semi-Annual Report 6
