NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. Organization:
Bridgeway Funds, Inc. ("Bridgeway") was organized as a Maryland corporation on October 19, 1993, and is
registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, as a no-load, diversified, open-end

$0.001 par value.
On June 25, 2003 the Bridgeway Fund Board of Directors changed the name of Bridgeway Fund, Inc. to
Bridgeway Funds, Inc. to more accurately describe the group of funds in the series. The Board also approved
calling each "Portfolio" in the series a "Fund" to bring the investment companies' names in line with industry
practice. Two funds were renamed: Ultra-Large 35 Index became Blue Chip 35 Index Fund to increase
investors' understanding of the type of companies in which the fund invests and Ultra-Small Company Tax
Advantage became Ultra-Small Company Market to simplify its name and to clarify that it may be appropriate
for nontaxable accounts.

Fund, the Aggressive Investors 2 Fund, the Ultra-Small Company Fund, the Ultra-Small Company Market Fund,
