THE FOLLOWING INFORMATION SUPPLEMENTS 'MANAGEMENT OF THE FUND--THE DISTRIBUTOR'
IN THE RETAIL CLASS PROSPECTUS.
 
    SunAmerica Capital Services, Inc. serves as the Distributor of Class Z
shares and incurs the expenses of distributing the Portfolios' Class Z shares
under a Distribution Agreement with respect to the Portfolios, none of which are
reimbursed by or paid for by the Portfolios. There is no distribution plan in
effect for the Class Z shares.
 
THE FOLLOWING INFORMATION SUPPLEMENTS 'MANAGEMENT OF THE FUND--ADMINISTRATOR' IN
THE RETAIL CLASS PROSPECTUS.
 
    SunAmerica Fund Services, Inc. serves as the Administrator for Class Z
shares and may receive reimbursement from the Fund of its costs through a fee,
none of which is reimbursed by or paid for by the Class Z shares of the
Portfolios. The Class Z shares, however, pays all direct transfer agency fees
and out-of-pocket expenses.
 
THE FOLLOWING INFORMATION SUPPLEMENTS 'DIVIDENDS, DISTRIBUTIONS AND TAXES--
TAXES' IN THE RETAIL CLASS PROSPECTUS.
 
    As a qualified plan, the 401(k) Plan generally pays no federal income tax.
Individual participants in the 401(k) Plan should consult Plan documents and
their own tax advisers for information on the tax consequences associated with
participating in the 401(k) Plan.
 
    The per share dividends on Class Z shares will generally be higher than the
per share dividends on Class A, Class B or Class C shares as a result of the
fact that Class Z shares are not subject to any distribution or service fee.
 
THE FOLLOWING INFORMATION SUPPLEMENTS THE INFORMATION UNDER 'PURCHASE OF SHARES'
AND 'REDEMPTION OF SHARES' IN THE RETAIL CLASS PROSPECTUS.
 
    Class Z shares of the Portfolios are offered exclusively for sale to
participants in the 401(k) Plan. Such shares may be purchased or redeemed only
by the 401(k) Plan on behalf of individual Plan participants at net asset value
without any sales or redemption charge. Class Z shares are not subject to any
minimum investment requirements. The Plan purchases and redeems shares to
implement the investment choices of individual Plan participants with respect to
their contributions in the Plan. All purchases of Portfolio shares through the
Plan will be of Class Z shares.
 
    The net asset value per share at which shares of the Portfolios are
purchased or redeemed by the Plan for the accounts of individual Plan
participants might be more or less than the net asset value per share prevailing
at the time that such participants made their investment choices or made their
contributions to the Plan.
 
THE FOLLOWING INFORMATION SUPPLEMENTS 'EXCHANGE PRIVILEGE' IN THE RETAIL CLASS
PROSPECTUS.
 
    Class Z shareholders of one Portfolio may exchange their shares for Class Z
shares of Aggressive Growth Portfolio, Large-Cap Value Portfolio, Value
Portfolio, Small-Cap Value Portfolio or International Equity Portfolio on the
basis of relative net asset value per share. Class Z shareholders may also
exchange their shares for shares of any other fund offered through the 401(k)
Plan. See 'Purchase of Shares' above.
 
THE FOLLOWING INFORMATION SUPPLEMENTS 'DETERMINATION OF NET ASSET VALUE' IN THE
RETAIL CLASS PROSPECTUS.
 
    Because Class Z shares are not subject to any distribution or service fees,
the net asset value per share of the Class Z shares will generally be higher
than the net asset value per share of each of Class A, Class B and Class C
shares, except following the payment of dividends and distributions.
 
THE FOLLOWING INFORMATION SUPPLEMENTS THE INFORMATION UNDER 'GENERAL
INFORMATION--SHAREHOLDER INQUIRIES' IN THE RETAIL CLASS PROSPECTUS.
 
    Inquiries regarding the purchase, redemption or exchange of Class Z shares
or the making or changing of investment choices in the 401(k) Plan should be
directed to the Fidelity Participant Center at (800) 835-5098.

(1) The front-end sales charge on Class A shares decreases with the size of the
    purchase to 0% for purchases of $1,000,000 or more. See 'Purchase of
    Shares.'
(2) Purchases of Class A shares in excess of $1,000,000 will be subject to a
    CDSC on redemptions made within one year of purchase. The CDSC on Class B
    shares applies only if a redemption occurs within six years from their
    purchase date. The CDSC on Class C shares applies only on redemptions made
    within one year of purchase.
(3) A $15.00 fee may be imposed for wire redemptions.
(4) 0.25% of the 12b-1 fee comprises an Account Maintenance and Service Fee. A
    portion of the Account Maintenance and Service Fee is paid for continuous
    personal service to investors in the Portfolios, such as responding to
    shareholder inquiries, quoting net asset values, providing current marketing
    material and attending to other shareholder matters. Class B or Class C
    shareholders who own their shares for an extended period of time may pay
    more in Rule 12b-1 distribution fees than the economic equivalent of the
    maximum front-end sales charge permitted under the Conduct Rules of the
    National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc.
(5) SunAmerica has voluntarily agreed to waive fees or reimburse expenses, if
    necessary, to keep operating expenses at or below an annual rate set forth

    waivers/expense reimbursements. For the fiscal year ended October 31, 1997,

(1) The front-end sales charge on Class A shares decreases with the size of the
    purchase to 0% for purchases of $1,000,000 or more. See 'Purchase of
    Shares.'
(2) Purchases of Class A shares in excess of $1,000,000 will be subject to a
    CDSC on redemptions made within one year of purchase. The CDSC on Class B
    shares applies only if a redemption occurs within six years from their
    purchase date. The CDSC on Class C shares applies only on redemptions made
    within one year of purchase.
(3) A $15.00 fee may be imposed for wire redemptions.
(4) 0.25% of the 12b-1 fee comprises an Account Maintenance and Service Fee. A
    portion of the Account Maintenance and Service Fee is paid for continuous
    personal service to investors in the Portfolios, such as responding to
    shareholder inquiries, quoting net asset values, providing current marketing
    material and attending to other shareholder matters. Class B or Class C
    shareholders who own their shares for an extended period of time may pay
    more in Rule 12b-1 distribution fees than the economic equivalent of the
    maximum front-end sales charge permitted under the Conduct Rules of the
    National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc.
(5) SunAmerica has voluntarily agreed to waive fees or reimburse expenses, if
    necessary, to keep operating expenses at or below an annual rate set forth
    above under Total Operating Expenses. The information provided in the table
    represents estimated amounts for the current fiscal year net of the current
    fee waivers/expense reimbursements. For the fiscal year ended October 31,
    1997, the Other Expenses and Total Operating Expenses (on a gross basis)
    were: Value Portfolio, Class A, 0.77% and 2.12%; Value Portfolio, Class B,
    0.80% and 2.80%; Value Portfolio, Class C, 1.08% and 3.08%; International
    Equity Portfolio, Class A, 1.02% and 2.47%; International Equity Portfolio,
    Class B, 1.07% and 3.17%; International Equity Portfolio, Class C, 1.47% and
    3.57%. For the period October 15, 1997 (commencement of operations) through
    October 31, 1997, the Other Expenses and Total Operating Expenses (on a
    gross basis) were: Large-Cap Value Portfolio, Class A, 1.01% and 2.36%;
    Large-Cap Value Portfolio, Class B, 1.59% and 3.59%; Large-Cap Value
    Portfolio, Class C, 3.65% and 5.65%; Small-Cap Value Portfolio, Class A,

  shares. Therefore, with respect to the 10-year expense information, years 8, 9
  and 10 reflect the expenses attributable to ownership of Class A shares.
 
The foregoing examples, including the 5% return and the expenses used, are
intended to assist investors in understanding the costs and expenses that a
shareholder in the Fund will bear directly or indirectly, and should not be
considered a representation of past or future performance or expenses. For more

Style-Based Investing
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 
Each Portfolio of the Fund is intended to provide investors with access to
several different professional investment advisers, each seeking the same
investment objective and utilizing a similar investment style with respect to a
separate portion of the Portfolio's assets. Normally, the investment decisions
for each Portfolio will be made by at least three Advisers, which may include
SunAmerica. SunAmerica will select Advisers that it believes will provide each
Portfolio with the highest quality investment services, while obtaining, within
each Portfolio's overall investment objective, a distinct investment style.
 
SunAmerica will generally allocate investments in each Portfolio (and redemption
requests) equally among its three Advisers. The Fund expects that differences in
investment returns among the portions of a Portfolio managed by different
Advisers will cause the actual percentage of a Portfolio's assets managed by
each Adviser to vary over time. SunAmerica intends, on a quarterly basis, to
review the asset allocation in each Portfolio to ensure that no portion of
assets managed by an Adviser exceeds that portion managed by any other Adviser
to the Portfolio by more than 5%. If such a condition exists, SunAmerica will
then re-allocate cash flows among the three Advisers, differently from the
manner described above, in an effort to effect a re-balancing of the Portfolio's
asset allocation. SunAmerica does not intend, but reserves the right, to effect
such a re-balancing of asset allocation by re-allocating assets from one Adviser
to another. Re-balancing may involve re-directing cash flows from a better
performing Adviser to one with relatively lower returns.
 
From time to time, SunAmerica, with the approval of the Board, may add a new
Adviser for a Portfolio, replace an Adviser or reduce the number of Advisers for
a Portfolio. See 'Management of the Fund.'
 
Investment Objectives and Policies
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 
The investment objective of each Portfolio is long-term growth of capital, and
each Portfolio seeks to achieve its investment objective primarily through
investment in equity securities. There can be no assurance that any Portfolio's
investment objective will be met or that the net return on an investment in a
Portfolio will exceed that which could have been obtained through other
investment or savings vehicles. The section 'Investment Techniques and Risk
Factors' contains a discussion of certain types of other securities in which
each Portfolio may invest and certain investment techniques that each Adviser
for the Portfolios may use. In addition, that section contains a discussion of
certain of the principal risks attendant to an investment in the Portfolios.
Although each Adviser for a Portfolio is permitted to invest in the various
types of securities and use the investment techniques indicated in that section,
no Adviser is required to invest in any particular type of permitted security or
to use any particular investment technique. Rather, each Adviser is given full
discretion to manage its portion of the assets of a Portfolio according to its
own investment philosophy.
 
Except as specifically indicated, each Portfolio's respective investment
objective and the investment policies and strategies described herein are not
fundamental policies of the Portfolio and may be changed by the Board without
the approval of shareholders. Certain investment restrictions may not be changed
without a majority vote of the outstanding voting securities of that Portfolio.
Each Portfolio's fundamental investment restrictions are described in the
Statement of Additional Information. For purposes of any investment policies or
restrictions discussed below, the percentage limitations of each Portfolio will
be applied by each Adviser to the portion of the Portfolio's assets managed by
that Adviser and will be determined at the time of an investment. SunAmerica,
however, is ultimately responsible for overseeing compliance by the Advisers,
and will in such capacity verify that in the aggregate the investments of each
Portfolio complies with applicable percentage limitations.
 
Each Portfolio is 'non-diversified' (as such term is defined under the 1940
Act), subject, however, to certain tax diversification requirements. See
'Dividends, Distributions and Taxes.'

The Growth Portfolios
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 
The Growth Portfolios consist of the Large-Cap Growth Portfolio, Mid-Cap Growth
Portfolio and Aggressive Growth Portfolio. Under normal conditions, at least 65%
of each Growth Portfolio's total assets will be invested in equity securities
(including common and preferred stocks and other securities having equity
features, such as convertible securities, warrants and rights). The issuers of
such securities are companies considered by the respective Advisers to have a
historical record of above-average growth rate; to have significant growth
potential; above-average earnings growth or value or the ability to sustain
earnings growth; to offer proven or unusual products or services; or to operate
in industries experiencing increasing demand. The Advisers may select certain of
such securities because they consider them to be undervalued in the market. Each
of the Growth Portfolios may also invest in debt securities that the Advisers
expect have the potential for capital appreciation which are rated as low as
'BBB' by Standard & Poor's Corporation, a Division of the McGraw-Hill Companies
('S&P'), or 'Baa' by Moody's Investors Service, Inc. ('Moody's') or, if unrated,
determined by the Adviser to be of equivalent quality. The Large-Cap Growth
Portfolio and the Aggressive Growth Portfolio may also invest in debt securities
rated below 'BBB' or 'Baa' or unrated securities of comparable quality (junk
bonds). See 'Fixed Income Securities' in 'Investment Techniques and Risk
Factors' below for a discussion of the risks associated with investing in such
securities. The investment polices and strategies specific to each of the Growth
Portfolios are described below.
 
Large-Cap Growth Portfolio.  The Large-Cap Growth Portfolio, advised by Janus,
Papp and Montag & Caldwell, will invest, under normal circumstances, at least
65% of the Portfolio's total assets in the securities of companies that have, at
the time of purchase, a market capitalization in excess of $5 billion
('Large-Cap Companies').
 
Large-Cap Companies generally will be companies that have a substantial record
of operations (i.e., in business for at least five years) and are listed for
trading on the New York Stock Exchange ('NYSE'), American Stock Exchange
('AMEX') or on another national or international stock exchange or, in some
cases, are traded over-the-counter.
 
The Portfolio may also invest up to 35% of its total assets in securities of
issuers other than Large-Cap Companies. These investments may include equity
securities of companies with market capitalizations below $5 billion, including
companies with market capitalizations of less than $1 billion, and debt
securities that the Advisers expect have the potential for capital appreciation.
See 'Investment in Small-Cap Companies' and 'Fixed Income Securities' in
'Investment Techniques and Risk Factors' below for a discussion of the risks
associated with investing in such securities.
 
   
Mid-Cap Growth Portfolio.  The Mid-Cap Growth Portfolio, advised by MAS, T. Rowe
Price and Wellington Management, will invest, under normal circumstances, at
least 65% of the Portfolio's total assets in the securities of medium-sized
companies that have, at the time of purchase, a market capitalization between $1
billion and $5 billion ('Mid-Cap Companies').
    
 
Mid-Cap Companies generally will be companies that have a substantial record of
operations (i.e., in business for at least five years) and are listed for
trading on the NYSE or another national or international stock exchange or, in
some cases, are traded over-the-counter. Such companies, however, may be less
seasoned than Large-Cap Companies, as defined in 'Large-Cap Growth Portfolio,'
above. In general, the securities of Mid-Cap Companies may be more volatile than
those of Large-Cap Companies.
 
The Portfolio may also invest up to 35% of its total assets in securities of
issuers other than Mid-Cap Companies. These investments may include equity
securities of Large-Cap Companies and companies with market capitalizations of
less than $1 billion, and debt securities that the Advisers expect have the
potential for capital appreciation. See 'Investment in Small-Cap Companies' and
'Fixed Income Securities' in 'Investment Techniques and Risk Factors' below for
a discussion of the risks associated with investing in such securities.
 
Aggressive Growth Portfolio.  The Aggressive Growth Portfolio, advised by Janus,
SunAmerica and Warburg, will invest in equity securities to seek aggressively
and selectively long-term total return, without regard to the market
capitalization of an issuer. Generally, the Portfolio will invest in securities
of companies that have, at the time of purchase, a market capitalization of less
than $1 billion ('Small-Cap Companies') or Mid-Cap Companies, as defined in
'Mid-Cap Growth Portfolio,' above. The Advisers may also purchase securities of
Large-Cap Companies, as defined in 'Large-Cap Growth Portfolio,' above.

STYLE SELECT SERIES(Registered)

Small-Cap Companies generally will be companies that, although not 'start-up'
companies, have been in business for a shorter period of time than Mid-Cap or
Large-Cap Companies. Small-Cap Companies frequently will be in businesses or
industries involving new, recently developed products, services, or
technologies, or may be in businesses that are out of favor with or have not yet
been discovered by the broader investment community. While some Small-Cap
Companies may be listed for trading on a securities exchange, it is expected
that a significant portion of such companies will be traded over-the-counter.
 
There is no requirement that any minimum percentage of assets of the Portfolio
be maintained in securities of either Small-Cap Companies or Mid-Cap Companies.
In general, to the extent that more of the Portfolio's assets are invested in
Small-Cap Companies, the Portfolio's net asset value may be subject to more
volatility than if such assets were invested in larger companies. See
'Investment in Small-Cap Companies' in 'Investment Techniques and Risk Factors.'
In addition, the Portfolio may invest up to 35% of its total assets in debt
securities that the Advisers expect have the potential for capital appreciation.
See 'Fixed Income Securities' in 'Investment Techniques and Risk Factors' below
for a discussion of the risks associated with investing in such securities.
 
The Blend Portfolio
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 
The Fund currently offers one Blend Portfolio, the Large-Cap Blend Portfolio,
the investment policies and strategies of which are described below.
 
Large-Cap Blend Portfolio.  The Large-Cap Blend Portfolio, advised by Lazard,
MSAM and T. Rowe Price, will invest, under normal circumstances, at least 65% of
the Portfolio's total assets in equity securities (including common and
preferred stocks and other securities having equity features, such as
convertible securities, warrants and rights) of Large-Cap Companies. Large-Cap
Companies have, at the time of purchase, a market capitalization in excess of $5
billion. Large-Cap Companies generally will be companies that have a substantial
record of operations (i.e., in business for at least five years) and are listed
for trading on the NYSE, AMEX or on another national or international stock
exchange or, in some cases, are traded over-the-counter. In selecting equity
securities of Large-Cap Companies, an Adviser will seek to achieve a blend of
what it considers to be growth companies, value companies and companies that the
Adviser believes have elements of both growth and value. An Adviser will
normally select securities of companies whose earnings are expected by the
Adviser to grow and to be able to support a growing dividend payment, as well as
securities that do not pay dividends currently but offer prospects of
appreciation and future income. Investments will be identified based upon
factors including undervalued assets or earnings potential, favorable operating
or price to cash flow ratios, a below-average price to book value ratio, a
below-average price to earnings ratio and, although current income will not
always be a significant factor in selecting securities, an above-average
dividend yield. Investments will also be identified based upon other factors
including above-average earnings growth and cash flow sufficient to support
growing dividends, as well as the prospect for capital appreciation and future
dividend payments with respect to securities that do not currently pay
dividends.
 
The Large-Cap Blend Portfolio may invest up to 35% of its total assets in
securities of issuers other than Large-Cap Companies. These investments may
include equity securities of companies with market capitalizations below $5
billion, including companies with market capitalizations of less than $1
billion. These investments may also include debt securities that the Advisers
expect to have the potential for capital appreciation, including debt securities
rated below 'BBB' by S&P, or 'Baa' by Moody's, or, if unrated, determined by the
Advisers to be of equivalent quality (junk bonds). See 'Investment in Small-Cap
Companies' and 'Fixed Income Securities' in 'Investment Techniques and Risk
Factors' below for a discussion of the risks associated with investing in such
securities.

The Value Portfolios

The Value Portfolios consist of the Large-Cap Value Portfolio, Value Portfolio
and Small-Cap Value Portfolio. Under normal circumstances, at least 65% of each
Value Portfolio's total assets will be invested in equity securities (including
common and preferred stocks and other securities having equity features, such as
convertible securities, warrants and rights). The Advisers will normally select
securities that they believe are selling at a price that is low relative to
their worth. Investments will be identified based upon factors including
undervalued assets or earnings potential, favorable operating or price to cash
flow ratios, a below-average price to book value ratio, a below-average price to
earnings ratio and, although current income will not always be a significant
factor in selecting securities, an above-average dividend yield. In addition,
the Advisers may take into account such other factors as an issuer's product
demand and development, resources for expansion, quality of management, overall
favorable business prospects and industry fundamentals. While the Advisers seek
to identify investments with the potential for above-average appreciation, there
is a risk that other investors will not recognize the intrinsic worth of a
security owned by the Value Portfolios for a long period, if at all. In
addition, there is the risk that a security judged to be undervalued by the
Advisers is actually appropriately priced due to fundamental problems with the
issuer's business prospects that are not yet apparent. Each of the Value
Portfolios may invest in debt securities that the Advisers expect to have the
potential for capital appreciation, which are rated as low as 'BBB' by S&P, or
'Baa' by Moody's, or, if unrated, determined by the Advisers to be of equivalent
quality. The Value Portfolio and Small-Cap Value Portfolio may also invest in
debt securities rated below 'BBB' or 'Baa' or unrated securities of comparable
quality (junk bonds). See 'Fixed Income Securities' in 'Investment Techniques
and Risk Factors' below for a discussion of the risks associated with investing
in such securities. The investment policies and strategies specific to each of
the Value Portfolios are described below.
 
Large-Cap Value Portfolio.  The Large-Cap Value Portfolio, advised by Babson,
Davis and Wellington Management, will invest, under normal circumstances, at
least 65% of the Portfolio's assets in securities of Large-Cap Companies that
the Advisers believe are selling at a price that is low relative to their worth.
Large-Cap Companies have, at the time of purchase, a market capitalization in
excess of $5 billion. Large-Cap Companies generally will be companies that have
a substantial record of operations (i.e., in business for at least five years)
and are listed for trading on the NYSE, AMEX or on another national or
international stock exchange or, in some cases, are traded over-the-counter.
 
The Portfolio may also invest up to 35% of its total assets in securities of
issuers other than Large-Cap Companies. These investments may include equity
companies with market capitalizations below $5 billion, including companies with
market capitalizations of less than $1 billion, and debt securities that the
Advisers expect to have the potential for capital appreciation. See 'Investment
in Small-Cap Companies' and 'Fixed Income Securities' in 'Investment Techniques
and Risk Factors' below for a discussion of the risks associated with investing
in such securities.
 
Value Portfolio.  The Value Portfolio, advised by Davis, Neuberger&Berman, and
Strong/Schafer, will invest, under normal circumstances, in securities that the
Advisers believe are selling at a price that is low relative to their worth,
without regard to the market capitalization of the issuer. It is anticipated
that a significant portion of the Portfolio's assets as a whole will generally
be invested in securities of Mid-Cap Companies, which have, at the time of
purchase, a market capitalization between $1 billion and $5 billion; however,
any particular Adviser may not necessarily invest a significant portion of the
Portfolio's assets allocated to it in such companies. Mid-Cap Companies
generally will be companies that have a substantial record of operations (i.e.,
in business for at least five years) and are listed for trading on the NYSE,
AMEX or on another national or international stock exchange or, in some cases,
are traded over-the-counter. Investing in such companies may have greater risks
than investing in larger companies.
 
The Portfolio may also invest up to 35% of its total assets in debt securities
that the Advisers expect to have the potential for capital appreciation. See
'Fixed Income Securities' in 'Investment Techniques and Risk Factors.'
 
   
Small-Cap Value Portfolio.  The Small-Cap Value Portfolio, advised by
Berger/PWM, Lazard and Glenmede, will invest, under normal circumstances, at
least 65% of the Portfolio's total assets in securities of Small-Cap Companies
that the Advisers believe are selling at a price that is low relative to their
worth. Small-Cap Companies have, at the time

of purchase, a market capitalization of less than $1 billion. Small-Cap
Companies generally will be companies that, although not 'start-up' companies,
have been in business for a shorter period of time than Mid-Cap or Large-Cap
Companies. Small-Cap Companies frequently will be in businesses or industries
involving new, recently developed products, services, or technologies, or may be
in businesses that are out of favor with or have not yet been discovered by the
broader investment community. While some Small-Cap Companies may be listed for
trading on a securities exchange, it is expected that a significant portion of
such companies will be traded over-the-counter. In general, to the extent that
the Portfolio's assets are invested in Small-Cap Companies, the Portfolio's net
asset value may be subject to more volatility than if such assets were invested
in larger companies. See 'Investment in Small-Cap Companies' in 'Investment
Techniques and Risk Factors.'
 
The Portfolio may also invest up to 35% of its total assets in equity securities
of issuers other than Small-Cap Companies and in debt securities that the
Advisers expect have the potential for capital appreciation. See 'Fixed Income
Securities' in 'Investment Techniques and Risk Factors' below for a discussion
of the risks associated with investing in such securities.
 
The International Portfolio
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 
The Fund currently offers one International Portfolio, the International Equity
Portfolio, the investment policies and strategies of which are described below.
 
International Equity Portfolio.  The International Equity Portfolio, advised by
BT, Rowe-Fleming and Warburg will invest, under normal circumstances, in
securities of non-U.S. issuers. Country selection is a significant part of each
Adviser's investment process. The Portfolio is permitted to invest in any
country where it is legal for U.S. investors to invest.
 
The Portfolio will invest in securities of companies without regard to their
market capitalization. However, investing in smaller companies may have greater
risks than investing in larger companies. See 'Investment in Small-Cap
Companies' in 'Investment Techniques and Risk Factors.' The Portfolio may also
invest from time to time in companies located in countries considered to be
emerging markets (i.e., those generally considered to be in emerging or
developing countries). Investment in foreign securities in general, and in
emerging markets in particular, involves certain risks not present when
investing in United States securities. See 'Foreign Securities' in 'Investment
Techniques and Risk Factors.'
 
Under normal conditions, at least 65% of the Portfolio's total assets will be
invested in equity securities (including common and preferred stocks and other
securities having equity features, such as convertible securities, warrants and
rights) of issuers in at least three countries other than the United States. The
Portfolio may purchase securities on foreign stock exchanges, on U.S. stock
exchanges, or in the over-the-counter market. In addition, the Portfolio may
invest in securities in the form of sponsored or unsponsored American Depositary
Receipts ('ADRs'), European Depositary Receipts ('EDRs'), Global Depositary
Receipts ('GDRs') or other similar securities representing a right to obtain
underlying securities of foreign issuers. The Portfolio may invest up to 35% of
its total assets in debt securities that the Advisers expect have the potential
for capital appreciation. The Portfolio may invest in such debt securities rated
below investment grade, that is below 'BBB' by S&P, or below 'Baa' by Moody's,
or, if unrated, determined by the Advisers to be of equivalent quality (junk
bonds). See 'Fixed Income Securities' in 'Investment Techniques and Risk
Factors' below for a discussion of the risks associated with investing in such
securities.

Advisers' Historical Performance Data
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 
Set forth below is historical performance data relating to each of the Advisers
selected by SunAmerica for the Portfolios. The performance information presented
below is based on data provided by each Adviser relating to accounts managed by
that Adviser that have investment objectives and policies similar (although not
necessarily identical) to the relevant Portfolio and are advised by that Adviser
using investment styles and strategies substantially similar to those to be
employed by that Adviser in advising its portion of the Portfolio. THE
PERFORMANCE INFORMATION SET FORTH BELOW FOR THE RESPECTIVE ADVISERS DOES NOT
REPRESENT THE PERFORMANCE OF THE FUND OR ANY PORTFOLIO. The Large-Cap Growth,
Large-Cap Blend, Large-Cap Value and Small-Cap Value Portfolios are recently
organized and have performance records of less than a year. The following
performance should not be considered a prediction of future performance of the
Fund or any Portfolio. The performance of a particular Portfolio may be higher
or lower than that of the respective Advisers shown below.
 
All of the Advisers' historical performance information reflects annualized
total return over the stated period of time. Total return shows how much an
investment has increased (decreased) over a specified period of time and
includes capital appreciation and income. The term 'annualized total return'
signifies that cumulative total returns for a stated time period (i.e., 1, 3, 5
or 10 years) have been annualized over such period. In order to present the
total return information in a consistent manner, all returns were calculated by
geometrically linking quarterly total return data for the relevant number of
quarters and annualizing the result over the equivalent number of years.
 
All information is based on data supplied by the Advisers or Morningstar, Inc.
('Morningstar') and believed by the Fund to be reliable. Where an Adviser's
performance is based on a single account, performance has been calculated in
accordance with prescribed Securities and Exchange Commission guidelines. Where
composite performance information is provided, the total return for each
Adviser's composite performance has been calculated in accordance with
Performance Presentation Standards of the Association for Investment Management
and Research ('AIMR'). Unless otherwise indicated, the performance, while having
been calculated in accordance with either Securities and Exchange Commission or
AIMR methodology, has not been independently verified or audited. AIMR's method
of calculating performance differs from that of the Securities and Exchange
Commission. Performance figures for any particular Adviser do not necessarily
reflect all of the Adviser's assets under management and may not accurately
reflect the performance of all accounts managed by the Adviser.
 
Where the performance information of an Adviser in the following tables
constitutes a single account, it is presented net of actual fees charged by the
individual Advisers, except as otherwise noted, and reflects the imposition of
any sales loads or charges to such account, if applicable. Where an Adviser
provides composite performance, one of two types of composites may be used, a
'net composite' or a 'gross composite.' In a net composite, the performance
return of each account in the composite is reduced by the actual fees charged to
that particular account. In a gross composite, the gross composite performance
return is reduced by the highest annual expenses charged to any account included
in the particular composite.
 
Certain of the client accounts that are included in an Adviser's past
performance record may not be registered investment companies. Such accounts
would not be subject to the same types of expenses to which the Fund is subject,
nor to the specific diversification and other restrictions and investment
limitations imposed on the Fund and its Portfolios by the 1940 Act or Subchapter
M of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the 'Code'). The performance
results that include accounts that are not registered investment companies might
have been less favorable had they been subject to regulation as investment
companies under the relevant federal laws.
 
Finally, for each period presented, the investment performance for the Advisers
of each Portfolio is compared to the average performance of a group of similar
mutual funds tracked by Morningstar. Morningstar calculates its group averages
by taking a mathematical average of the returns of the funds included in the
group.

INDIVIDUAL ADVISER PERFORMANCE
 
Except as otherwise noted below, an Adviser's performance is presented net of
actual fees and reflects the imposition of any sales loads or charges, if
applicable. The Portfolio's fees and expenses may be greater than those charged
by the individual Advisers. Accordingly, the Portfolio's actual performance
results may be less.
 
  Janus
 
   
Janus' historical performance data covers 10 years and reflects the performance
of the Janus Earnings Growth Composite (which includes mutual funds). The
composite includes all accounts, including the Portfolio, over $5 million with
investment objectives, policies and strategies substantially similar to those to
be used by Janus in managing its portion of the Large-Cap Growth Portfolio. 15
such accounts, with net assets totaling $27 million (less than 1% of the total
assets in the 62 similar accounts), have been omitted from the composite. Such
omission, however, does not render the performance information presented
misleading. As of March 31, 1998, the composite included 47 accounts with
aggregate assets of $16.1 billion. The composite returns are presented net of
actual fees. None of the accounts included in the composite bears any sales
loads or charges.
    
 
  Papp
 
   
Papp's historical performance data covers 6 1/4 years (the period since
inception) and reflects the performance of a single account, which is a no-load
mutual fund. The annualized return since inception of the account is 20.2% as of
March 31, 1998. Papp manages 2 accounts, including the Portfolio, with
investment objectives, policies and strategies substantially similar to those to
be used by Papp in managing its portion of the Large-Cap Growth Portfolio. The
omission of the Portfolio, with assets of approximately $10.1 million (less than
3% of the total assets in the 2 accounts), does not render the performance
information misleading. As of March 31, 1998, the account's net assets totaled
$361.5 million. The returns are presented net of actual fees.
    
 
  Montag & Caldwell
 
   
Montag & Caldwell's historical performance data covers 10 years and reflects the
performance of the Montag & Caldwell Growth Composite. The composite includes
all accounts, including the Portfolio, with investment objectives, policies and
strategies substantially similar to those used by Montag & Caldwell in managing
its portion of the Large-Cap Growth Portfolio, except that 15 such accounts,
with net assets totaling $32 million (less than 1% of the total assets in the
168 similar accounts), have been omitted from the composite. Such omission,
however, does not render the performance information presented misleading. As of
March 31, 1998, the composite included 153 accounts with aggregate assets of
$7.8 billion. The composite returns are presented net of actual fees. None of
the accounts included in the composite bears any sales load or charges.
    
 
  Morningstar Large Growth Category
 
   
Developed by Morningstar, the Morningstar Large Growth Category currently
reflects a group of 289 mutual funds which have portfolios with median market
capitalizations, price/earnings ratios, and price/book ratios similar to those
of the Large-Cap Growth Portfolio.

INDIVIDUAL ADVISER PERFORMANCE
 
Except as otherwise noted below, an Adviser's performance is presented net of

applicable. The Portfolio's fees and expenses may be greater than those charged
by the individual Advisers. Accordingly, the Portfolio's actual performance

  MAS
 
   
MAS' historical performance data covers 8 years (the period since inception) and
reflects the performance of a single account, which is a no-load mutual fund.
The annualized return since inception of the account is 23.0% as of March 31,
1998. MAS manages 2 accounts, including the Portfolio, with investment
objectives, and investment policies and strategies substantially similar to
those to be used by MAS in managing its portion of the Mid-Cap Growth Portfolio.
The omission of the Portfolio, with assets of approximately $32 million (5.5% of

mutual fund. The annualized return since inception of the account is 26.2% as of
March 31, 1998. T. Rowe Price manages a total of 9 accounts (5 of which are
institutional accounts and 4 of which are mutual funds) with investment
objectives, policies and strategies substantially similar to those used in
managing its portion of the Mid-Cap Growth Portfolio. T. Rowe Price does not
calculate composite performance for mutual fund accounts nor does it calculate a
combined composite of the institutional accounts' performance and the mutual
funds' performance. Three of the accounts do not have performance records as of
March 31, 1998. The omission of the other 5 accounts, with assets of
approximately $653.7 million (less than 22% of the total assets in the 9
accounts), does not render the performance information presented misleading. As
of March 31, 1998, the account's net assets totaled approximately $2.3 billion.
The returns are presented net of actual fees.
    
 
  Wellington Management
 
   
Wellington Management's historical performance data covers 6 3/4 years and
reflects the performance of the Wellington Management Mid-Cap Growth Composite.
The annualized return since inception of the Composite is 21.3%. The Composite
includes all accounts with investment objectives, policies and strategies
substantially similar to those used by Wellington Management in managing its
portion of the Mid-Cap Growth Portfolio. As of March 31, 1998 the Composite
included 20 separately managed accounts totaling $1.2 billion of assets under

NOTES (AGGRESSIVE GROWTH PORTFOLIO)
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 
INDIVIDUAL ADVISER PERFORMANCE
 
Except as otherwise noted below, an Adviser's performance is presented net of
actual fees and reflects the imposition of any sales loads or charges, if
applicable. The Portfolio's fees and expenses may be greater than those charged
by the individual Advisers. Accordingly, the Portfolio's actual performance
results may be less.
 
  Janus
 
   
Janus' historical performance data covers 8 1/4 years (the period since
inception) and reflects the performance of the Janus Aggressive Growth Composite
(which includes mutual funds). The annualized return since inception of the
composite is 25.8% as of March 31, 1998. The composite includes all accounts,
including the Portfolio, over $5 million with investment objectives, policies
and strategies substantially similar to those used by Janus in managing its
portion of the Aggressive Growth Portfolio. 16 such accounts, with net assets
totaling $50 million (less than 5% of the total assets in the 30 similar
accounts), have been omitted from the composite. Such omission, however, does
not render the performance information presented misleading. As of March 31,
1998, the composite included 14 accounts with aggregate assets of $1.0 billion.
The composite returns are presented net of actual fees. None of the accounts
included in the composite bears any sales loads or charges.
    
 
  SunAmerica
 
   
SunAmerica's historical performance data covers 10 years and reflects the
performance of a single account, which is a front-end load mutual fund. The
annualized ten-year return of the account is 15.0% as of March 31, 1998.
SunAmerica manages a total of 3 accounts, including the Portfolio, (all of which
are mutual funds) with investment objectives, policies and strategies
substantially similar to those used in managing its portion of the Aggressive
Growth Portfolio. SunAmerica does not calculate composite performance for mutual
fund accounts. The omission of 2 of the accounts, with assets totaling $156.0
million (less than 38% of the total assets in the 3 accounts), does not render
the performance information presented misleading. As of March 31, 1998, the
account's net assets totaled $259.0 million. The returns presented in the chart
are net of actual fees and reflect the imposition of a front-end sales charge.
    
 
  Warburg
 
   
Warburg's historical performance data covers approximately 7 years and reflects
the performance of a single account, which is a no-load mutual fund. The
annualized return since inception of the account is 19.11% as of March 31, 1998.
Warburg manages a total of 3 accounts, including the Portfolio, (1 of which is
an institutional account and 2 of which are mutual funds) with investment
objectives, policies and strategies substantially similar to those to be used in
managing its portion of the Aggressive Growth Portfolio. Warburg does not
calculate a combined composite performance for its mutual fund accounts, nor
does it calculate a combined composite of the institutional account's
performance and the mutual funds' performance. However, the performance for the
other 2 accounts was, in the aggregate, better than that shown for the account
and, therefore, the omission of such accounts does not render the performance
information presented misleading. As of March 31, 1998, the account's net assets
totaled $432.1 million, which represented approximately 17.8% of the total
assets in the 3 similar accounts. The returns are presented net of actual fees.
    
 
  Morningstar Aggressive Growth Objective
 
   
Developed by Morningstar, the Morningstar Aggressive Growth Objective currently
reflects a group of 141 mutual funds which seek rapid growth of capital. The
group typically employ strategies that involve greater risk than those used by
most equity funds.

INDIVIDUAL ADVISER PERFORMANCE
 
Except as otherwise noted below, an Adviser's performance is presented net of
actual fees, and reflects the imposition of any sales loads or charges, if
applicable. The Portfolio's fees and expenses may be greater than those charged
by the individual Advisers. Accordingly, the Portfolio's actual performance
results may be less.
 
  Lazard
 
   
Lazard's historical performance data covers 10 years and reflects the
performance of Lazard's U.S. Equity Composite. The composite includes all
accounts, including the Portfolio, with investment objectives, policies and
strategies substantially similar to those to be used by Lazard in managing its
portion of the Large-Cap Blend Portfolio, except that 41 such accounts, with net
assets totaling $2.9 million (less than 1% of the total assets in the 96 similar
accounts), have been omitted from the composite. Such omission, however, does
not render the performance information presented misleading. As of March 31,
1998, the composite included 55 accounts totaling over $6.6 billion in assets
under management. The returns are presented net of actual fees. None of the
accounts included in the composite bears any sales loads or charges.
    
 
  MSAM
 
   
MSAM's historical performance data covers 6 3/4 years (the period since
inception) and reflects the performance of a single account, which is a no-load
mutual fund. The annualized return since inception of the account is 21.0% as of
March 31, 1998. MSAM manages a total of 16 accounts (12 of which are
institutional accounts and 4 of which are mutual funds) with investment
objectives, policies and strategies substantially similar to those to be used in
managing its portion of the Large-Cap Blend Portfolio. MSAM does not calculate
composite performance for its mutual fund accounts nor does it calculate a
combined composite of the institutional accounts' performance and the mutual
funds' performance. However, the performance for the other 15 accounts was, in
the aggregate, better than that shown for the fund and, therefore, the omission
of such accounts does not render the performance information presented
misleading. As of March 31, 1998, the fund's net assets totaled $759.0 million,
which represented approximately 38.2% of the total assets in the 16 similar
accounts. The returns presented in the chart are net of actual fees.
    
 
  T. Rowe Price
 
   
T. Rowe Price's historical performance data covers 10 years and reflects the
performance of a single account, which is a no-load mutual fund. T. Rowe Price
manages 2 accounts, including the Portfolio, with investment objectives,
policies and strategies substantially similar to those to be used by T. Rowe
Price in managing its portion of the Large-Cap Blend Portfolio. The omission of
the Portfolio, with assets of approximately $30.8 million (approximately 1% of
the total assets in the 2 accounts), does not render the performance information
misleading. As of March 31, 1998, the account's net assets totaled over $3.7

INDIVIDUAL ADVISER PERFORMANCE
 
Except as otherwise noted below, an Adviser's performance is presented net of
actual fees and reflects the imposition of any sales loads or charges, if
applicable. The Portfolio's fees and expenses may be greater than those charged
by the individual Advisers. Accordingly, the Portfolio's actual performance
results may be less.
 
  Babson
 
   
Babson's historical performance data covers 10 years and reflects the
performance of the Babson Value Composite. According to Babson, the composite
includes all accounts, including the Portfolio, with investment objectives,
policies and strategies substantially similar to those used by Babson in
managing its portion of the Large-Cap Value Portfolio. Composite returns with
respect to the period prior to 1995 are based on results from a single account,
which is a no-load mutual fund, and, with respect to the period from 1995 to
present, are based on results from fully discretionary separate accounts and
no-load mutual funds advised by Babson. As of March 31, 1998, the composite
included 53 accounts with aggregate assets of $2.0 billion. The composite
returns are presented net of actual fees. None of the accounts included in
composite bears any sales loads or charges.
    
 
  Davis
 
   
Davis' historical performance data covers 10 years and reflects the performance
of a single account, which is a front-end load mutual fund. Davis manages a
total of 14 accounts, including the Portfolio, (9 of which are institutional
accounts and 5 of which are mutual funds) with investment objectives, policies
and strategies substantially similar to those used in managing its portion of
the Large-Cap Value Portfolio. Davis does not calculate composite performance
for either its institutional accounts or its mutual fund accounts, nor does it
calculate a combined composite of the institutional accounts' performance and
the mutual funds' performance. However, the performance for the other 13
accounts was, in the aggregate, better than that shown for the account and,
therefore, the omission of such accounts does not render the performance
information presented misleading. As of March 31, 1998, the account's net assets
totaled $10.4 billion, which represented approximately 82% of the total assets
in the 14 similar accounts. The returns presented in the chart are net of actual
fees and reflect the imposition of a front-end sales charge.
    
 
  Wellington Management
 
   
Wellington Management's historical performance data covers 10 years and reflects
the performance of the Wellington Management Value/Yield Composite. The
composite includes all accounts, including the Portfolio, with investment
objectives, policies and strategies substantially similar to those used by
Wellington Management in managing its portion of the Large-Cap Value Portfolio.
As of March 31, 1998, the composite included 12 discretionary separate accounts
and mutual funds totaling $3.4 billion of assets under management. The returns
for the composite were supplied by Wellington Management and are presented net
of management-related fees for the periods during which each account is included

INDIVIDUAL ADVISER PERFORMANCE
 
Except as otherwise noted below, an Adviser's performance is presented net of
actual fees and reflects the imposition of any sales loads or charges, if
applicable. The Portfolio's fees and expenses may be greater than those charged
by the individual Advisers. Accordingly, the Portfolio's actual performance
results may be less.
 
  Davis
 
   
Davis' historical performance data covers 10 years and reflects the performance
of a single account, which is a front-end load mutual fund. Davis manages a
total of 14 accounts, including the Portfolio, (9 of which are institutional
accounts and 5 of which are mutual funds) with investment objectives, policies
and strategies substantially similar to those used in managing its portion of
the Value Portfolio. Davis does not calculate composite performance for either
its institutional accounts or its mutual fund accounts, nor does it calculate a
combined composite of the institutional accounts' performance and the mutual
funds' performance. However, the performance for the other 13 accounts was, in
the aggregate, better than that shown for the account and, therefore, the
omission of such accounts does not render the performance information presented
misleading. As of March 31, 1998, the account's net assets totaled $10.4
billion, which represented approximately 82% of the total assets in the 14
similar accounts. The returns presented in the chart are net of actual fees and
reflect the imposition of a front-end sales charge.
    
 
  Neuberger&Berman
 
   
Neuberger&Berman's historical performance data covers 10 years and reflects the
performance of a single account, which is a no-load mutual fund.
Neuberger&Berman manages 2 accounts, including the Portfolio, with investment
objectives, policies and strategies substantially similar to those to be used by
Neuberger&Berman in managing its portion of the Value Portfolio. The omission of
the Portfolio, with assets of approximately $72.0 million (less than 2% of the
total assets in the 2 accounts), does not render the performance information
misleading. As of March 31, 1998, the account's net assets totaled $4.62
billion. The returns are presented net of actual fees.
    
 
  Strong/Schafer
 
   
Strong/Schafer's historical performance data covers 10 years and reflects the
performance of the Schafer Capital Equity Composite. The composite includes all
accounts, including the Portfolio, with investment objectives, policies and
strategies substantially similar to those used by Strong/Schafer in managing its
portion of the Value Portfolio. As of March 31, 1998, the composite included 3
separately managed accounts and 2 mutual funds totaling approximately $2.2
billion of assets under management. The returns are presented net of actual
fees. None of the accounts in the composite bears any sales loads or charges.
Prior to January 1, 1993, not all composite calculations complied with AIMR.
Accordingly, performance results prior to January 1, 1993 do not comply with
AIMR.
    
 
  Morningstar Mid-Cap Value Category
 
   
Developed by Morningstar, the Morningstar Mid-Cap Value Category currently
reflects a group of 203 mutual funds which have portfolios with median market
capitalizations, price/earnings ratios, and price/book ratios similar to those
expected for the Value Portfolio.

Except as otherwise noted below, an Adviser's performance is presented net of

Berger/PWM's historical performance data covers 10 years and reflects the
performance of a single account, which is a no-load mutual fund. Berger/ PWM
manages 2 accounts, including the Portfolio, with investment objectives,
policies and strategies substantially similar to those used by Berger/PWM in
managing its portion of the Small-Cap Value Portfolio. The omission of the
Portfolio, with assets of approximately $13.4 million (approximately 7% of the
total assets in the 2 accounts), does not render the performance information
misleading. As of March 31, 1998, the account's net assets totaled $178.2
million. The returns are presented net of actual fees.
    
 
  Lazard
 
   
Lazard's historical performance data covers 10 years and reflects the
performance of the Lazard U.S. Small Cap Equity Composite. The composite
includes all accounts with investment objectives, policies and strategies
substantially similar to those to be used by Lazard in managing its portion of
the Small-Cap Value Portfolio, except that 24 such accounts, with net assets
totaling $721.3 million (less than 30.5% of the total assets in the 49
accounts), have been omitted from the composite. Such omission, however, does
not render the performance information presented misleading. As of March 31,
1998, the composite included 25 accounts totaling $1.6 billion in assets under
management. The returns for the composite were supplied to the Fund by Lazard
gross of certain fees, but have been adjusted to reflect the highest fees
charged to any account included in the composite for the reporting period. None
of the accounts included in the composite bears any sales loads or charges.

INDIVIDUAL ADVISER PERFORMANCE
 
Except as otherwise noted below, an Adviser's performance is presented net of
actual fees. The Portfolio's fees and expenses may be greater than those charged
by the individual Advisers. Accordingly, the Portfolio's actual performance
results may be less.
 
  BT
 
   
BT's historical performance data covers 10 years and reflects the performance of
the BT International Equity Composite, which consists of 2 accounts, one of
which is a mutual fund and the other an institutional account. These accounts
represent all of those managed by BT with an investment objective, policies and
strategy substantially similar to those to be used in managing its portion of
the International Equity Portfolio. As of March 31, 1998, the net assets managed
under the 2 accounts totaled approximately $2.0 billion. The returns are
presented net of actual fees and sales charges.
    
 
  Rowe-Fleming
 
   
Rowe-Fleming's historical performance data covers 10 years and reflects the
performance of a single account, which is a no-load mutual fund. Rowe-Fleming
manages a total of 36 accounts (13 of which are institutional accounts and 23 of
which are mutual funds) with investment objectives, policies and strategies
substantially similar to those to be used in managing its portfolio of the
International Equity Portfolio. Although Rowe-Fleming calculates composite
performance for its institutional accounts, it does not calculate composite
performance for mutual fund accounts, nor does it calculate a composite which
combines the institutional accounts' composite performance with the mutual
funds' performance. However, the performance for the other 35 accounts was, in
the aggregate, better than that shown for the account and, therefore, the
omission of such accounts does not render the performance information presented
misleading. As of March 31, 1998, the account's net assets totaled approximately
$10.6 billion, which represented approximately 49.5% of the total assets in the
36 similar accounts. The returns are presented net of actual fees.
    
 
  Warburg
 
   

Warburg's historical performance data covers approximately 7 years and reflects
the performance of a single account, which is a no-load mutual fund. The
annualized return since inception of the account is 10.0% as of March 31, 1998.
Warburg manages a total of 9 accounts (1 of which is an institutional account
and 8 of which are mutual funds) with an investment objective, policies and
strategy substantially similar to those to be used in managing its portion of
the International Equity Portfolio. Warburg does not calculate a combined
composite performance for its mutual fund accounts, nor does it calculate a
combined composite of the institutional account's performance and the mutual
funds' performance. However, the performance for the other 8 accounts was, in
the aggregate, better than that shown for the account and, therefore, the
omission of such accounts does not render the performance information presented
misleading. As of March 31, 1998, the account's net assets totaled $406.5
million, which represented approximately 8.1% of the total assets in the 9
similar accounts. The returns are presented net of actual fees.

INVESTMENT TECHNIQUES AND RISK FACTORS
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 
Unless otherwise specified, each Portfolio may invest in the following
securities. As used herein, the term 'Adviser' shall mean either SunAmerica or
one of the Advisers chosen by SunAmerica. Also, the stated percentage
limitations are applied to an investment at the time of purchase unless
otherwise indicated.
 
Convertible Securities, Preferred Stocks, Warrants and Rights--Convertible
securities may be debt securities or preferred stock with a conversion feature.
Traditionally, convertible securities have paid dividends or interest at rates
higher than common stocks but lower than non-convertible securities. They
generally participate in the appreciation or depreciation of the underlying
stock into which they are convertible, but to a lesser degree. In recent years,
convertibles have been developed which combine higher or lower current income
with options and other features. Generally, preferred stock has a specified
dividend and ranks after bonds and before common stocks in its claim on income
for dividend payments and on assets should the company be liquidated. While most
preferred stocks pay a dividend, a Portfolio may purchase preferred stock where
the issuer has omitted, or is in danger of omitting, payment of its dividend.
Such investments would be made primarily for their capital appreciation
potential.
 
Warrants are options to buy a stated number of shares of common stock at a
specified price any time during the life of the warrants (generally two or more
years). Rights represent a preemptive right of stockholders to purchase
additional shares of a stock at the time of a new issuance before the stock is
offered to the general public, allowing the stockholder to retain the same
ownership percentage after the new stock offering.
 
Investment in Small-Cap Companies--Each Portfolio may invest in small companies
having market capitalizations of under $1 billion. It may be difficult to obtain
reliable information and financial data on such companies and the securities of
these small companies may not be readily marketable, making it difficult to
dispose of shares when desirable. Securities of small or emerging growth
companies may be subject to more abrupt or erratic market movements and less
market liquidity than larger, more established companies or the market average
in general. A risk of investing in smaller, emerging companies is that they
often are at an earlier stage of development and therefore have limited product
lines, market access for such products, financial resources and depth in
management than larger, more established companies. In addition, certain smaller
issuers may have a higher probability of facing difficulties in obtaining the
capital necessary to continue in operation and may go into bankruptcy, which
could result in a complete loss of an investment. Smaller companies also may be
less significant factors within their industries and may have difficulty
withstanding competition from larger companies. While smaller companies may be
subject to these additional risks, they may also realize more substantial growth
than larger, more established companies.
 
Foreign Securities--Each Portfolio (other than the International Equity
Portfolio) is authorized to invest up to 30% of its total assets, and the
International Equity Portfolio invests without limitation, in foreign
securities. Each Portfolio may also invest in U.S. dollar denominated securities
of foreign issuers, including ADRs, as well as EDRs, GDRs or other similar
securities convertible into securities of foreign issuers. These securities may
not necessarily be denominated in the same currency as the securities into which
they may be converted. Each Portfolio also may invest in securities denominated
in European Currency Units (ECUs). An ECU is a 'basket' consisting of specified
amounts of currencies of certain of the twelve member states of the European
Community. In addition, each Portfolio may invest in securities denominated in
other currency 'baskets.' Each Portfolio may also seek to gain exposure to
certain foreign markets, including developing countries or emerging markets,
where direct investment may be difficult or impracticable, through investment in
domestic closed-end mutual funds which invest predominately in such markets. See
the Statement of Additional Information for a further discussion of foreign
securities.
 
Risks of Foreign Securities.  Foreign investments may be affected favorably or
unfavorably by changes in currency rates and exchange-control regulations and
costs will be incurred in connection with conversions between various
currencies. The value of a security may fluctuate as a result of currency
exchange rates in a manner unrelated to the underlying value of the security.
There may be less publicly available information about a foreign company than
about a U.S. company, and foreign companies may not be subject to uniform
accounting, auditing

<PAGE>
                                                                              39

                                                STYLE SELECT SERIES(Registered)

and financial reporting standards and requirements comparable to those
applicable to U.S. companies.
 
Securities of some foreign companies may be less liquid or more volatile than
securities of U.S. companies, and foreign brokerage commissions and custodian
fees are generally higher than in the U.S. In addition, there is generally less
governmental regulation of stock exchanges, brokers and listed companies abroad
than in the U.S. Investments in foreign securities may also be subject to other
risks, different from those affecting U.S. investments, including local
political or economic developments, expropriation or nationalization of assets,
confiscatory taxation and imposition of withholding taxes on income from sources
within such countries.
 
Emerging Markets.  Investments may be made from time to time in issuers
domiciled in, or government securities of, developing countries or emerging
markets. Although there is no universally accepted definition, a developing
country is generally considered to be a country in the initial stages of its
industrialization cycle with a low per capita gross national product. Historical
experience indicates that the markets of developing countries or emerging
markets have been more volatile than the markets of developed countries;
however, such markets can provide higher rates of return to investors.
Investment in an emerging market country may involve certain risks, including a
less diverse and mature economic structure, a less stable political system, an
economy based on only a few industries or dependent on international aid or
development assistance, the vulnerability to local or global trade conditions,
extreme debt burdens, or volatile inflation rates. See 'Foreign Investment
Companies' below for a discussion of investing in investment companies which
invest in emerging markets.
 
Foreign Currency Transactions.  Each Portfolio has the ability to hold a portion
of its assets in foreign currencies and to enter into forward foreign currency
exchange contracts. It may also purchase and sell exchange-traded futures
contracts relating to foreign currency and purchase and sell put and call
options on currencies and futures contracts.
 
Each Portfolio may enter into forward foreign currency exchange contracts to
reduce the risks of fluctuations in exchange rates; however, these contracts
cannot eliminate all such risks and do not eliminate fluctuations in the prices
of the Portfolio's portfolio securities.
 
Each Portfolio may purchase and write put and call options on currencies for the
purpose of protecting against declines in the U.S. dollar value of foreign
portfolio securities and against increases in the U.S. dollar cost of foreign
securities to be acquired. The purchase of an option on currency may constitute
an effective hedge against exchange rate fluctuations; however, in the event of
exchange rate movements adverse to a Portfolio's position, the Portfolio may
forfeit the entire amount of the premium plus related transaction costs. As with
other kinds of option transactions, however, the writing of an option on
currency will constitute only a partial hedge, up to the amount of the premium
received, and a Portfolio could be required to purchase or sell currencies at
disadvantageous exchange rates, thereby incurring losses.
 
Each Portfolio may enter into forward foreign currency exchange contracts,
currency options and currency swaps for non-hedging purposes when an Adviser
anticipates that a foreign currency will appreciate or depreciate in value, but
securities denominated in that currency do not present attractive investment
opportunities or are not included in such portfolio. The Portfolio may use
currency contracts and options to cross-hedge, which involves selling or
purchasing instruments in one currency to hedge against changes in exchange
rates for a different currency with a pattern of correlation. To limit any
leverage in connection with currency contract transactions for hedging or
non-hedging purposes, a Portfolio will segregate cash or liquid securities in an
amount sufficient to meet its payment obligations in these transactions or
otherwise 'cover' the obligation. Initial margin deposits made in connection
with currency futures transactions or premiums paid for currency options traded
over-the-counter or on a commodities exchange may each not exceed 5% of a
Portfolio's total net assets in the case of non-bona fide hedging transactions.
 
Each Portfolio may enter into currency swaps. Currency swaps involve the
exchange by a Portfolio with another party of their respective rights to make or
receive payments in specified currencies. Currency swaps usually involve the
delivery of the entire principal value of one designated currency in exchange
for the other designated currency. Therefore, the entire principal value of a
currency swap is subject to the risk that the other party to the swap will
default on its contractual delivery obligations. A Portfolio will maintain in a
segregated account with its custodian, cash or liquid securities equal to the
net amount, if any, of the excess of the Portfolio's obligations over its
entitlements with respect to swap

<PAGE>

STYLE SELECT SERIES(Registered)

transactions. To the extent that the net amount of a swap is held in a
segregated account consisting of cash or liquid securities, the Fund believes
that swaps do not constitute senior securities under the 1940 Act and,
accordingly, they will not be treated as being subject to the Portfolio's
borrowing restrictions. The use of currency swaps is a highly specialized
activity which involves investment techniques and risks different from those
associated with ordinary portfolio securities transactions. If an Adviser is
incorrect in its forecasts of market values and currency exchange rates, the
investment performance of a Portfolio would be less favorable than it would have
been if this investment technique were not used.
 
Foreign Investment Companies--Each Portfolio may invest in domestic closed-end
investment companies which invest in certain foreign markets, including
developing countries or emerging markets. The Large-Cap Growth, Aggressive
Growth and International Equity Portfolios may also invest in foreign investment
companies which invest in such markets. Some of the countries in which the
Portfolios invest may not permit direct investment by foreign investors such as
the Portfolios. Investments in such countries may only be permitted through
foreign government-approved or authorized investment vehicles, which may include
other investment companies. In addition, it may be less expensive and more
expedient for the Portfolios to invest in investment companies in a country that
permits direct foreign investment. Investing through such vehicles may involve
frequent or layered fees or expenses and may also be subject to limitation under
the 1940 Act. Under the 1940 Act, a fund may invest up to 10% of its assets in
shares of other investment companies and up to 5% of its assets in any one
investment company as long as the investment does not represent more than 3% of
the voting stock of the acquired investment company. The Portfolios do not
intend to invest in such investment companies unless, in the judgment of the
Advisers, the potential benefits of such investments justify the payment of any
associated fees and expenses. See 'Foreign Securities' and 'Emerging Markets'
above and the Statement of Additional Information.
 
Fixed Income Securities--Fixed income securities are broadly characterized as
those that provide for periodic payments to the holder of the security at a
stated rate. Most fixed income securities, such as bonds, represent indebtedness
of the issuer and provide for repayment of principal at a stated time in the
future. Others do not provide for repayment of a principal amount, although they
may represent a priority over common stockholders in the event of the issuer's
liquidation. Many fixed income securities are subject to scheduled retirement,
or may be retired or 'called' by the issuer prior to their maturity dates. The
interest rate on certain fixed income securities, known as 'variable rate
obligations,' is determined by reference to or is a percentage of an objective
standard, such as a bank's prime rate, the 90-day Treasury bill rate, or the
rate of return on commercial paper or bank certificates of deposit, and is
periodically adjusted. Certain variable rate obligations may have a demand
feature entitling the holder to resell the securities at a predetermined amount.
The interest rate on certain fixed income securities, called 'floating rate
instruments,' changes whenever there is a change in a designated base rate.
 
The market values of fixed income securities tend to vary inversely with the
level of interest rates--when interest rates rise, their values will tend to
decline; when interest rates decline, their values generally will tend to rise.
The potential for capital appreciation with respect to variable rate obligations
or floating rate instruments will be less than with respect to fixed-rate
obligations. Long-term instruments are generally more sensitive to these changes
than short-term instruments. The market value of fixed income securities and
therefore their yield is also affected by the perceived ability of the issuer to
make timely payments of principal and interest.
 
U.S. Government Securities--Securities guaranteed by the U.S. government include
the following: (1) direct obligations of the U.S. Treasury (such as Treasury
bills, notes and bonds) and (2) federal agency obligations guaranteed as to
principal and interest by the U.S. Treasury (such as Government National
Mortgage Association certificates and Federal Housing Administration
debentures). For these securities, the payment of principal and interest is
unconditionally guaranteed by the U.S. government. They are of the highest
possible credit quality. These securities are subject to variations in market
value due to fluctuations in interest rates, but if held to maturity, are
guaranteed by the U.S. government to be paid in full.
 
Securities issued by U.S. government instrumentalities and certain federal
agencies are neither direct obligations of, nor are they guaranteed by, the U.S.
Treasury. However, they involve federal sponsorship in one way or another. For
example, some are

<PAGE>

                                                                              41

                                                STYLE SELECT SERIES(Registered)

backed by specific types of collateral; some are supported by the issuer's right
to borrow from the Treasury; some are supported by the discretionary authority
of the Treasury to purchase certain obligations of the issuer; and others are
supported only by the credit of the issuing government agency or
instrumentality. These agencies and instrumentalities include, but are not
limited to, the Federal National Mortgage Association, the Federal Home Loan
Mortgage Corporation, Federal Land Banks, Farmers Home Administration, Central
Bank for Cooperatives, Federal Intermediate Credit Banks and Federal Home Loan
Banks.
 
Corporate Debt Instruments--These instruments, such as bonds, represent the
obligation of the issuer to repay a principal amount of indebtedness at a stated
time in the future and, in the usual case, to make periodic interim payments of
interest at a stated rate.
 
Investment Grade--A designation applied to intermediate and long-term corporate
debt securities rated within the highest four rating categories assigned by S&P
(AAA, AA, A or BBB) or by Moody's (Aaa, Aa, A or Baa), or, if unrated,
considered by the Adviser to be of comparable quality. The ability of the issuer
of an investment grade debt security to pay interest and to repay principal is
considered to vary from extremely strong (for the highest ratings) through
adequate (for the lowest ratings given above), although the lower-rated
investment grade securities may be viewed as having speculative elements as
well.
 
High-Yield, High-Risk Bonds--A designation applied to intermediate and long-term
corporate debt securities that are not investment grade; commonly referred to as
'junk bonds.' These include bonds rated below BBB by S&P, or Baa by Moody's, or
which are unrated but considered by the Adviser to be of equivalent quality.
These securities are considered speculative. See the Statement of Additional
Information for a complete description of bond ratings.
 
The Mid-Cap Growth Portfolio and Large-Cap Value Portfolio may invest in debt
securities rated as low as 'BBB' by S&P, 'Baa' by Moody's, or unrated securities
determined by the Adviser to be of comparable quality. The Large-Cap Growth,
Aggressive Growth, Large-Cap Blend, Value, Small-Cap Value and International
Equity Portfolios may invest in debt securities rated below investment grade
(i.e., below 'BBB' by S&P, or below 'Baa' by Moody's), or if unrated, determined
by the Adviser to be of equivalent quality.
 
Risk Factors Relating to High-Yield, High-Risk Bonds--High-yield, high-risk
bonds are subject to greater fluctuations in value than are higher rated bonds
because the values of high-yield bonds tend to reflect short-term corporate,
economic and market developments and investor perceptions of the issuer's credit
quality to a greater extent. Although under normal market conditions longer-term
securities yield more than shorter-term securities, they are subject to greater
price fluctuations. Fluctuations in the value of a Portfolio's investments will
be reflected in its net asset value per share. The growth of the high-yield bond
market paralleled a long economic expansion, followed by an economic downturn
which severely disrupted the market for high-yield bonds and adversely affected
the value of outstanding bonds and the ability of the issuers to repay principal
and interest. The economy may affect the market for high-yield bonds in a
similar fashion in the future including an increased incidence of defaults on
such bonds. From time to time, legislation may be enacted which could have a
negative effect on the market for high-yield bonds.
 
High-yield bonds present the following risks:
 
Sensitivity to Interest Rate and Economic Changes--High-yield, high-risk bonds
are very sensitive to adverse economic changes and corporate developments.
During an economic downturn or substantial period of rising interest rates,
highly leveraged issuers may experience financial stress that would adversely
affect their ability to service their principal and interest payment
obligations, to meet projected business goals and to obtain additional
financing. If the issuer of a bond defaulted on its obligations to pay interest
or principal or entered into bankruptcy proceedings, a Portfolio may incur
losses or expenses in seeking recovery of amounts owed to it. In addition,
periods of economic uncertainty and changes can be expected to result in
increased volatility of market prices (and therefore yields) of high-yield bonds
and the Portfolio's net asset value.
 
Payment Expectations--High-yield, high-risk bonds may contain redemption or call
provisions. If an issuer exercised these provisions in a declining interest-rate
market, an Adviser would have to replace the security with a lower-yielding
security, resulting in a decreased return for investors. Conversely, a
high-yield bond's value will decrease in a rising interest rate market, as will
the value of the Portfolio's assets. If the Portfolio experiences unexpected net
redemptions, this may force it to sell high-yield bonds without regard to their
investment merits, thereby decreasing the asset base upon

<PAGE>

STYLE SELECT SERIES(Registered)

which expenses can be spread and possibly reducing the Portfolio's rate of
return.
 
Liquidity and Valuation--There may be little trading in the secondary market for
particular bonds, which may affect adversely a Portfolio's ability to value
accurately or dispose of such bonds.
 
Under such circumstances, the task of accurate valuation becomes more difficult
and judgment would play a greater role due to the relative lack of reliable and
objective data. Adverse publicity and investor perceptions, whether or not based
on fundamental analysis, may decrease the values and liquidity of high-yield
bonds, especially in a thinly traded market.
 
Each Adviser attempts to reduce these risks through diversification of the
assets under its control and by credit analysis of each issuer, as well as by
monitoring broad economic trends and corporate and legislative developments. If
a high-yield bond previously acquired by a Portfolio is downgraded, the
Advisers, as appropriate, will evaluate the security and determine whether to
retain or dispose of it.
 
Asset-Backed Securities--These securities represent an interest in a pool of
consumer or other types of loans. Payments of principal and interest on the
underlying loans are passed through to the holders of asset-backed securities
over the life of the securities. See the Statement of Additional Information for
a further discussion of these types of securities.
 
Zero Coupon Bonds, Step-Coupon Bonds, Deferred Interest Bonds and PIK
Bonds.  Fixed income securities in which a Portfolio may invest also include
zero coupon bonds, step-coupon bonds, deferred interest bonds and bonds on which
the interest is payable in kind ('PIK bonds'). Zero coupon and deferred interest
bonds are debt obligations issued or purchased at a significant discount from
face value. A step-coupon bond is one in which a change in interest rate is
fixed contractually in advance. PIK bonds are debt obligations which provide
that the issuer thereof may, at its option, pay interest on such bonds in cash
or in the form of additional debt obligations. Such investments may experience
greater volatility in market value due to changes in interest rates and other
factors than debt obligations which make regular payments of interest. A
Portfolio will accrue income on such investments for tax and accounting
purposes, as required, which is distributable to shareholders and which, because
no cash is received at the time of accrual, may require the liquidation of other
portfolio securities under disad-vantageous circumstances to satisfy the
Portfolio's distribution obligations.
 
REITs--The Large-Cap Blend and each of the Value Portfolios may invest in Real
Estate Investment Trusts ('REITs'), which are trusts that invest primarily in
commercial real estate or real estate related loans. The value of an interest in
a REIT may be affected by the value and the cash flows of the properties owned
or the quality of the mortgages held by the trust.
 
Short-Term and Temporary Defensive Investments--In addition to their primary
investments, each Portfolio may also invest up to 25% of its total assets in
both U.S. and non-U.S. dollar denominated money market instruments (a) for
liquidity purposes (to meet redemptions and expenses) or (b) to generate a
return on idle cash held in a Portfolio's portfolio during periods when an
Adviser is unable to locate favorable investment opportunities. For temporary
defensive purposes, each Portfolio may invest up to 100% of its total assets in
cash and short-term fixed income securities, including corporate debt
obligations and money market instruments rated in one of the two highest
categories by a nationally recognized statistical rating organization (or
determined by the Adviser to be of equivalent quality). In addition, Janus and
Neuberger&Berman may invest idle cash of the assets under their control in money
market mutual funds that they manage. Such an investment may entail additional
fees. See the Statement of Additional Information for a description of short-
term debt securities and the Appendix to the Statement of Additional Information
for a description of securities ratings.
 
Repurchase Agreements--Under these types of agreements, a Portfolio buys a
security and obtains a simultaneous commitment from the seller to repurchase the
security at a specified time and price. The seller must maintain appropriate
collateral with the Fund's custodian (or at an appropriate sub-custodian in the
case of tri- or quad-party repurchase agreements). A Portfolio will only enter
into repurchase agreements involving securities in which it could otherwise
invest and with selected banks and securities dealers whose financial condition
is monitored by the Adviser, subject to the guidance of the Directors. If the
seller under the repurchase agreement defaults, the Portfolio may incur a loss
if the value of the collateral securing the repurchase agreement has declined,
and may incur disposition costs in connection with liquidating the collateral.
If bankruptcy proceedings are commenced with

<PAGE>

                                                                              43

                                                STYLE SELECT SERIES(Registered)

respect to the seller, realization of the collateral by the Portfolio may be
delayed or limited.
 
Hedging and Income Enhancement Strategies--Each Portfolio may write covered
calls to enhance income. After writing such a covered call up to 25% of a
Portfolio's total assets may be subject to calls. All such calls written by a
Portfolio must be 'covered' while the call is outstanding (i.e., the Portfolio
must own the securities subject to the call or other securities acceptable for
applicable escrow requirements). For hedging purposes or income enhancement,
each Portfolio may use interest rate futures, and stock and bond index futures,
including futures on U.S. government securities (together, 'Futures'); forward
contracts on foreign currencies; and call and put options on equity and debt
securities, Futures, stock and bond indices and foreign currencies (all of the
foregoing are referred to as 'Hedging Instruments'). All puts and calls on
securities, interest rate futures or stock and bond index futures or options on
such Futures purchased or sold by a Portfolio will be listed on a national
securities or commodities exchange or on U.S. over-the-counter markets.
 
Each Portfolio may use spread transactions for any lawful purpose consistent
with the Portfolio's investment objective such as hedging or managing risk, but
not for speculation. A Portfolio may purchase covered spread options from
securities dealers. Such covered spread options are not presently
exchange-listed or exchange-traded. The purchase of a spread option gives a
Portfolio the right to put, or sell, a security that it owns at a fixed dollar
spread or fixed yield spread in relationship to another security that the
Portfolio does not own, but which is used as a benchmark. The risk to a
Portfolio in purchasing covered spread options is the cost of the premium paid
for the spread option and any transaction costs. In addition, there is no
assurance that closing transactions will be available. The purchase of spread
options will be used to protect a Portfolio against adverse changes in
prevailing credit quality spreads, i.e., the yield spread between high quality
and lower quality securities. Such protection is only provided during the life
of the spread option.
 
Special Risks of Hedging and Income Enhancement Strategies.  Participation in
the options or Futures markets and in currency exchange transactions involves
investment risks and transaction costs to which a Portfolio would not be subject
absent the use of these strategies. If the Advisers' predictions of movements in
the direction of the securities, foreign currency and interest rate markets are
inaccurate, the adverse consequences to a Portfolio may leave the Portfolio in a
worse position than if such strategies were not used. Risks inherent in the use
of options, foreign currency and Futures contracts and options on Futures
contracts include (1) dependence on the Advisers' ability to predict correctly
movements in the direction of interest rates, securities prices and currency
markets; (2) imperfect correlation between the price of options and Futures
contracts and options thereon and movements in the prices of the securities or
currencies being hedged; (3) the fact that skills needed to use these strategies
are different from those needed to select portfolio securities; (4) the possible
absence of a liquid secondary market for any particular instrument at any time;
(5) the possible need to defer closing out certain hedged positions to avoid
adverse tax consequences; and (6) the possible inability of the Portfolio to
purchase or sell a portfolio security at a time that otherwise would be
favorable for it to do so, or the possible need for the Portfolio to sell a
portfolio security at a disadvantageous time, due to the need for the Portfolio
to maintain 'cover' or to segregate securities in connection with hedging
transactions. A transaction is 'covered' when the Portfolio owns the security
subject to the option on such security, or some other security acceptable for
applicable segregation requirements. See the Statement of Additional Information
for further information concerning income enhancement and hedging strategies and
the regulation requirements relating thereto.
 
Illiquid and Restricted Securities--No more than 15% of the value of a
Portfolio's net assets may be invested in securities which are illiquid,
including repurchase agreements that have a maturity of longer than seven days,
interest rate swaps, currency swaps, caps, floors and collars. For this purpose,
not all securities which are restricted are deemed to be illiquid. For example,
restricted securities which the Board of Directors, or the Adviser pursuant to
guidelines established by the Board of Directors, has determined to be
marketable, such as securities eligible for sale under Rule 144A promulgated
under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or certain private placements of
commercial paper issued in reliance on an exemption from such Act pursuant to
Section 4(2) thereof, may be deemed to be liquid for purposes of this
restriction. This investment practice could have the effect of increasing the
level of illiquidity in the Portfolio to the extent that qualified institutional
buyers (as defined in Rule 144A) become for a time uninterested in purchasing
these

<PAGE>

44

STYLE SELECT SERIES(Registered)

restricted securities. In addition, a repurchase agreement which by its terms
can be liquidated before its nominal fixed-term on seven days or less notice is
regarded as a liquid instrument. Subject to the applicable limitation on
illiquid securities investments, a Portfolio may acquire securities issued by
the U.S. government, its agencies or instrumentalities in a private placement.
See 'Illiquid Securities' in the Statement of Additional Information for a
further discussion of investments in such securities.
 
Hybrid Instruments--These instruments, including indexed or structured
securities, can combine the characteristics of securities, futures, and options.
For example, the principal amount, redemption, or conversion terms of a security
could be related to the market price of some commodity, currency, or securities
index. Such securities may bear interest or pay dividends at below market (or
even relatively nominal) rates. Under certain conditions, the redemption value
of such an investment could be zero.
 
Borrowing--As a matter of fundamental policy, each Portfolio is authorized to
borrow up to 33 1/3% of its total assets from banks for temporary or emergency
purposes. In seeking to enhance investment performance, each Portfolio may
borrow money for investment purposes and may pledge assets to secure such
borrowings. This is the speculative factor known as leverage. This practice may
help increase the net asset value of the assets of a Portfolio in an amount
greater than would otherwise be the case when the market values of the
securities purchased through borrowing increase. In the event the return on an
investment of borrowed monies does not fully recover the costs of such
borrowing, the value of the Portfolio's assets would be reduced by a greater
amount than would otherwise be the case. The effect of leverage will therefore
tend to magnify the gains or losses to the Portfolio as a result of investing
the borrowed monies. During periods of substantial borrowings, the value of the
Portfolio's assets would be reduced due to the added expense of interest on
borrowed monies. Each Portfolio is authorized to borrow, and to pledge assets to
secure such borrowings, up to the maximum extent permissible under the 1940 Act
(i.e., presently 50% of net assets). The time and extent to which a Portfolio
may employ leverage will be determined by the Adviser in light of changing facts
and circumstances, including general economic and market conditions, and will be
subject to applicable lending regulations of the Board of Governors of the
Federal Reserve Board.
 
Securities Lending--Each Portfolio may lend portfolio securities in amounts up
to 33 1/3% of its respective total assets to brokers, dealers and other
financial institutions, provided such loans are callable at any time by the
Portfolio and are at all times secured by cash or equivalent collateral. By
lending its portfolio securities, a Portfolio will receive income while
retaining the securities' potential for capital appreciation. As with any
extensions of credit, there are risks of delay in recovery and, in some cases,
even loss of rights in the collateral should the borrower of the securities fail
financially. However, these loans of portfolio securities will be made only to
firms deemed by the Adviser to be creditworthy. The proceeds of such loans will
be invested in high-quality short-term debt securities, including repurchase
agreements.
 
When-Issued, Delayed Delivery and Forward Transactions--These generally involve
the purchase or sale of a security with payment and delivery at some time in the
future--i.e., beyond normal settlement. A Portfolio does not earn interest on
securities purchased in this manner until settlement and bears the risk of
market value fluctuations in between the purchase and settlement dates. New
issues of stocks and bonds, private placements and U.S. government securities
may be sold in this manner. One form of when-issued or delayed delivery security
that each Portfolio may purchase is a 'to be announced' or 'TBA' mortgage-backed
security. A TBA mortgage-backed security transaction arises when a
mortgage-backed security is purchased or sold with the specific pools to be
announced on a future settlement date.
 
Short Sales--Each Portfolio may sell a security it does not own in anticipation
of a decline in the market value of that security (short sales). To complete
such a transaction, a Portfolio must borrow the security to make delivery to the
buyer. The Portfolio then is obligated to replace the security borrowed by
purchasing it at market price at the time of replacement. The price at such time
may be more or less than the price at which the security was sold by the
Portfolio. Until the security is replaced, the Portfolio is required to pay to
the lender any dividends or interest which accrue during the period of the loan.
To borrow the security, the Portfolio also may be required to pay a premium,
which would increase the cost of the security sold. The proceeds of the short
sale will be retained by the broker, to the extent necessary to meet margin
requirements, until the short position is closed out. Until the Portfolio
replaces a borrowed security, the Portfolio will

                                                                              45

maintain daily a segregated account, containing cash or liquid securities, at
such a level that (i) the amount deposited in the account plus the amount
deposited with the broker as collateral will equal the current value of the
security sold short and (ii) the amount deposited in the segregated account plus
the amount deposited with the broker as collateral will not be less than the
market value of the security at the time it was sold short. A Portfolio will
incur a loss as a result of the short sale if the price of the security
increases between the date of the short sale and the date on which the Portfolio
replaces the borrowed security. A Portfolio will realize a gain if the security
declines in price between those dates. This result is the opposite of what one
would expect from a cash purchase of a long position in a security. The amount
of any gain will be decreased, and the amount of any loss increased, by the
amount of any premium, dividends or interest the Portfolio may be required to
pay in connection with a short sale.
 
   
Each Portfolio may make 'short sales against the box.' A short sale is against
the box to the extent that the Portfolio contemporaneously owns, or has the
right to obtain without payment, securities identical to those sold short. A
Portfolio generally will recognize gain (but not loss) upon a short sale against
the box for Federal income tax purposes. A Portfolio may not enter into a short
sale, including a short sale against the box, if, as a result, more than 25% of
its net assets would be subject to such short sales.
    
 
Special Situations--A 'special situation' arises when, in the opinion of the
Adviser, the securities of a particular issuer will be recognized and appreciate
in value due to a specific development with respect to that issuer. Developments
creating a special situation might include, among others, a new product or
process, a technological breakthrough, a management change or other
extraordinary corporate event, or differences in market supply of and demand for
the security. Investment in special situations may carry an additional risk of
loss in the event that the anticipated development does not occur or does not
attract the expected attention.
 
Future Developments--Each Portfolio may invest in securities and other
instruments which do not presently exist but may be developed in the future,
provided that each such investment is consistent with the Portfolio's investment
objectives, policies and restrictions and is otherwise legally permissible under
federal and state laws. The Prospectus will be amended or supplemented as
appropriate to discuss any such new investments.
 
See the Statement of Additional Information for further information concerning
these and other types of securities and investment techniques in which the
Portfolio may from time to time invest, including dollar rolls, standby
commitments and reverse repurchase agreements.
 
Management of the Fund
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 
Directors.  The Directors of the Fund are responsible for the overall
supervision of the operations of the Fund and each Portfolio and perform various
duties imposed on directors of investment companies by the 1940 Act and by the
State of Maryland.
 
   
SunAmerica Asset Management Corp.  SunAmerica is an indirect wholly owned
subsidiary of SunAmerica Inc., an investment-grade financial services company
which, as of March 31, 1998, held more than $55 billion in assets. SunAmerica
Inc.'s principal executive offices are located at 1 SunAmerica Center, Los
Angeles, CA 90067-6022. In addition to managing the Fund and serving as an
Adviser to the Aggressive Growth Portfolio and Large-Cap Blend Portfolio,
SunAmerica serves as adviser, manager and/or administrator for Anchor Pathway
Fund, Anchor Series Trust, Seasons Series Trust, SunAmerica Equity Funds,
SunAmerica Income Funds, SunAmerica Money Market Funds, Inc., and SunAmerica
Series Trust. SunAmerica managed, advised and/or administered assets in excess
of $14.5 billion as of March 31, 1998 for investment companies, individuals,
pension accounts, and corporate and trust accounts.
    
 
SunAmerica selects the Advisers for and/or manages the investments of each
Portfolio, provides various administrative services and supervises the
Portfolio's daily business affairs, subject to general review by the Directors.
The Investment Advisory and Management Agreement entered into between SunAmerica
and the Fund, on behalf of each Portfolio (the 'Management Agreement')
authorizes

<PAGE>

STYLE SELECT SERIES(Registered)

SunAmerica to manage the assets of each Portfolio and/or to retain the Advisers
to do so. SunAmerica monitors the activities of the Advisers, and from time to
time will recommend the replacement of an Adviser on the basis of investment
performance, style drift, or other considerations.
 
The annual rate of the investment advisory fee payable to SunAmerica that
applies to each of the Growth Portfolios, Large-Cap Blend Portfolio and Value
Portfolios is 1.00% of Assets. The annual rate of the investment advisory fee
payable to SunAmerica that applies to the International Equity Portfolio is
1.10% of Assets. The term 'Assets' means the average daily net assets of the
Portfolio. The investment advisory fees are accrued daily and paid monthly, and
may be higher than those charged to other funds.
 
For the fiscal year ended October 31, 1997, each Portfolio paid SunAmerica a fee
equal to the following percentages of average daily net assets: Large-Cap Growth
Portfolio 1.00%; Mid-Cap Growth Portfolio 1.00%; Aggressive Growth Portfolio
1.00%; Large-Cap Blend Portfolio 1.00%; Large-Cap Value Portfolio 1.00%; Value
Portfolio 1.00%; Small-Cap Value Portfolio 1.00%; and International Equity
Portfolio 1.10%. SunAmerica has voluntarily agreed to waive fees or reimburse
expenses, if necessary, to keep operating expenses at or below an annual rate of
1.78% of the Assets of Class A shares and 2.43% of the Assets of Class B and
Class C shares for each Portfolio (other than the International Equity
Portfolio) and 2.03% of the Assets of Class A shares and 2.68% of the Assets of
Class B and Class C shares for the International Equity Portfolio. SunAmerica
also may voluntarily waive or reimburse additional amounts to increase the
investment return to a Portfolio's investors. SunAmerica may terminate all such
waivers and/or reimbursements at any time. Further, any waivers or
reimbursements made by SunAmerica with respect to a Portfolio are subject to
recoupment from that Portfolio within the following two years, provided that the
Portfolio is able to effect such payment to SunAmerica and remain in compliance
with the foregoing expense limitations.
 
The Advisers.  The organizations described below act as Advisers to the
respective Portfolio pursuant to agreements with SunAmerica (each, a
'Subadvisory Agreement' and collectively the 'Subadvisory Agreements'). The
duties of each Adviser include furnishing continuing advice and recommendations
to the relevant portion of the respective Portfolio regarding securities to be
purchased and sold. Each Adviser, therefore, generally formulates the continuing
program for management of the Assets under its control consistent with the
Portfolio's investment objectives and the investment policies established by the
Board. Because each Adviser manages its portion of its respective Portfolio
independently of the Portfolio's other Advisers, the same security may be held
in two different portions of the same Portfolio, or may be acquired for one
portion of the Portfolio at the time that the Adviser to another portion of the
Portfolio deems it appropriate to dispose of the security from that other
portion. Under some market conditions, one or more of the Advisers may believe
that temporary, defensive investments in short-term instruments or cash are
appropriate when another Adviser or Advisers believe continued exposure to the
equity markets is appropriate for their portions of the Portfolio.
 
Each of the Advisers (other than SunAmerica) is independent of SunAmerica and
discharges its responsibilities subject to the oversight and supervision of
SunAmerica, which pays the Advisers' fees. Each Adviser is paid monthly by
SunAmerica a fee equal to a percentage of the Assets of the Portfolio allocated
to the Adviser. The aggregate annual rates, as a percentage of daily net assets,
of the fees payable by SunAmerica to the Advisers for each Portfolio may vary
according to the level of Assets of each Portfolio. For the fiscal year ended
October 31, 1997, SunAmerica paid fees to the Advisers equal to the following
aggregate annual rates, expressed as a percentage of the Assets of each
Portfolio: Large-Cap Growth Portfolio, 0.48%; Mid-Cap Growth Portfolio, 0.50%;
Aggressive Growth Portfolio, 0.37%; Large-Cap Blend Portfolio, 0.32%; Large-Cap
Value Portfolio, 0.41%; Value Portfolio, 0.50%; Small-Cap Value Portfolio,
0.55%; and International Equity Portfolio, 0.65%.
 
SunAmerica may terminate any Subadvisory Agreement without shareholder approval.
Moreover, SunAmerica has received an exemptive order from the Securities and
Exchange Commission which permits SunAmerica, subject to certain conditions, to
enter into Subadvisory Agreements relating to the Fund with Advisers approved by
the Board without obtaining shareholder approval. The exemptive order also
permits SunAmerica, subject to the approval of the Board but without shareholder
approval, to employ new Advisers for new or existing Portfolios, change the
terms of particular

The Distributor.  SunAmerica Capital Services, Inc. (the 'Distributor'), an

all initial and deferred sales charges in connection with the sale of Fund
shares, all or a portion of which it may reallow to other broker-dealers. The
Distributor and other broker-dealers pay commissions to salespersons, as well as
the cost of printing and mailing prospectuses to potential investors and of any
advertising expenses incurred by them in connection with their distribution of
Portfolio shares.
 
The Distributor, at its expense, may from time to time provide additional
compensation to broker-dealers (including in some instances affiliates of the
Distributor) in connection with sales of shares of the Fund. Such compensation
may include (i) full re-allowance of the front-end sales charge on Class A
shares; (ii) additional compensation with respect to the sale of Class A, Class
B or Class C shares; or (iii) financial assistance to broker-dealers in
connection with conferences, sales or training programs for their employees,
seminars for the public, advertising campaigns regarding one or more of the
Portfolios, and/or other broker-dealer sponsored special events. In some
instances, this compensation will be made available only to certain
broker-dealers whose representatives have sold a significant amount of shares of
the Fund. Compensation may also include payment for travel expenses, including
lodging, incurred in connection with trips taken by invited registered
representatives for meetings or seminars of a business nature. In addition, the
following types of non-cash compensation may be offered through sales contests:
(i) travel mileage on major air carriers; (ii) tickets for entertainment events
(such as concerts or sporting events); or (iii) merchandise (such as clothing,
trophies, clocks, pens or other electronic equipment). Broker-dealers may not
use sales of the Funds' shares to qualify for this compensation to the extent
receipt of such compensation may be prohibited by the laws of any state or any
self-regulatory agency, such as, for example, the National Association of
Securities Dealers, Inc. Dealers who receive bonuses or other incentives may be
deemed to be underwriters under the Securities Act of 1933.

Certain laws and regulations limit the ability of banks and other depository
institutions to underwrite and distribute securities. However, in the opinion of
SunAmerica based upon the advice of counsel, these laws and regulations do not
prohibit such depository institutions from providing other services to
investment companies of the type contemplated by the Distribution Plans (as
described below). The Directors will consider appropriate modifications to the
operations of the Portfolios, including discontinuance of payments under the
Distribution Plans to banks and other depository institutions, in the event such
institutions can no longer provide the services called for under their
agreements. Banks and other financial services firms may be subject to various
state laws regarding services described, and may be required to register as
dealers pursuant to state law.
 
Distribution Plans.  Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act permits an investment company
directly or indirectly to pay expenses associated with the distribution of its
shares in accordance with a plan adopted by the investment company's board of
directors and approved by its shareholders. Pursuant to such rule, the Directors
and the shareholders of each class of shares of each Portfolio have adopted
distribution plans hereinafter referred to as the 'Class A Plan,' the 'Class B
Plan' and the 'Class C Plan,' and collectively as the 'Distribution Plans.' In
adopting each Distribution Plan, the Directors determined that there was a
reasonable likelihood that each such Plan would benefit the Portfolios and the
shareholders of each respective class. The sales charge and distribution fees of
a particular class will not be used to subsidize the sale of shares of any other
class.
 
Under the Class A Plan, the Distributor may receive payments from a Portfolio at
an annual rate of up to 0.10% of average daily net assets of such Portfolio's
Class A shares to compensate the Distributor and certain securities firms for
providing sales and promotional activities for distributing that class of
shares. Under the Class B and Class C Plans, the Distributor may receive
payments from a Portfolio at the annual rate of up to 0.75% of the average daily
net assets of such Portfolio's Class B and Class C shares, respectively, to
compensate the Distributor and certain securities firms for providing sales and
promotional activities for distributing each such class of shares. The
distribution costs for which the Distributor may be reimbursed out of such
distribution fees include fees paid to broker-dealers that have sold Portfolio
shares, commissions, and other expenses such as those incurred for sales
literature, prospectus printing and distribution and compensa-tion to
wholesalers. It is possible that in any given year the amount paid to the
Distributor under one or more of the Distribution Plans may exceed the
Distributor's distribution costs as described above. The Distribution Plans
provide that each class of shares of each Portfolio may also pay the Distributor
an account maintenance and service fee of up to 0.25% of the aggregate average
daily net assets of such class of shares for payments to broker-dealers
for providing continuing account maintenance. In this regard, some payments are
used to compensate broker-dealers with account maintenance and service fees in
an amount up to 0.25% per year of the assets maintained in a Portfolio by their
customers.
 
For the fiscal year ended October 31, 1997, under the Class A Plan, each
Portfolio paid the Distributor a fee equal to the following percentages of
average daily net assets: Large-Cap Growth Portfolio 0.35%; Mid-Cap Growth
Portfolio 0.35%; Aggressive Growth Portfolio 0.35%; Large-Cap Blend Portfolio
0.35%; Large-Cap Value Portfolio 0.35%; Value Portfolio 0.35%; Small-Cap Value
Portfolio 0.35%; and International Equity Portfolio 0.35%. For the fiscal year
ended October 31, 1997, under the Class B and Class C Plans, each Portfolio paid
the Distributor a fee equal to the following percentages of average daily net
assets: Large-Cap Growth Portfolio, 1.00%; Mid-Cap Growth Portfolio 1.00%;
Aggressive Growth Portfolio 1.00%; Large-Cap Blend Portfolio 1.00%; Large-Cap
Value Portfolio 1.00%; Value Portfolio 1.00%; Small-Cap Value Portfolio 1.00%;
and International Equity Portfolio 1.00%.
 
The Administrator.  The Fund has entered into a Service Agreement under the
terms of which SunAmerica Fund Services, Inc. ('SAFS'), an indirect wholly owned
subsidiary of SunAmerica Inc., assists the transfer agent in providing
shareholder services. Pursuant to the Service Agreement, as compensation for
services rendered, SAFS receives a fee from the Fund, calculated and payable
monthly, at an annual rate of 0.22% of average daily net assets (in addition to
out-of-pocket charges reimbursed by the Fund). See the Statement of Additional
Information for further information.

PURCHASE OF SHARES
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 
General.  Shares of each of the Portfolios are sold at the respective net asset
value next calculated after receipt of a purchase order, plus a sales charge,
which, at the election of the investor, may be imposed either (i) at the time of
purchase (Class A shares), or (ii) on a deferred basis (Class B and Class C
shares and certain Class A shares).
 
The minimum initial investment in each Portfolio is $500 and the minimum
subsequent investment is $100. However, for (i) wrap or certain other advisory
accounts for the benefit of clients of broker-dealers, financial institutions,
registered investment advisers or financial planners adhering to certain
standards established by the Distributor, and (ii) Individual Retirement
Accounts ('IRAs'), Keogh Plan accounts and accounts for other qualified plans,
the minimum initial investment is $250 and the minimum subsequent investment is
$25. The decision as to which class is most beneficial to an investor depends on
the amount and intended length of the investment. Investors should consult their
investment adviser for help in determining which class of shares is most
appropriate for them. Generally, investors making large investments, qualifying
for a reduced initial sales charge, might consider Class A shares because there
is a lower distribution fee than Class B and Class C shares. Shareholders who
purchase $1,000,000 or more of shares of the Portfolios should purchase only
Class A shares. Investors making small investments might consider Class B or
Class C shares because 100% of the purchase price is invested immediately.
Investors should consider the CDSC period and any conversion rights in the
context of their investment time frame. For example, while Class C shares have a
shorter CDSC period than Class B shares, Class C shares do not have a conversion
feature and, therefore, are subject to an ongoing distribution fee. Accordingly,
Class B shares may be more appropriate than Class C shares for investors with a
longer term investment time frame. Dealers may receive different levels of
compensation depending on which class of shares they sell.
 
Upon making an investment in shares of a Portfolio, an open account will be
established under which shares of the applicable Portfolio and additional shares
acquired through reinvestment of dividends and distributions will be held for
each shareholder's account by State Street Bank and Trust Company ('State
Street') and its affiliate, National Financial Data Services ('NFDS')
(collectively, the 'Transfer Agent'). Shareholders will not be issued
certificates for their shares unless they specifically so request in writing,
but no certificate is issued for fractional shares. Shareholders receive regular
statements from the Transfer Agent that report each transaction affecting their
accounts. Further information may be obtained by calling Shareholder/Dealer
Services at (800) 858-8850.
 
Class A Shares. Class A shares are offered at net asset value plus an initial
sales charge, which varies with the size of the purchase as follows:

No sales charge is payable at the time of purchase on investments of $1 million
or more. In addition, subject to the conditions listed below, shares may be
purchased at net asset value, without payment of a sales charge, by employee
benefit plans qualified under Sections 401 or 457 of the Code, or employee
benefit plans created pursuant to Section 403(b) of the Code and sponsored by
nonprofit organizations defined under Section 501(c)(3) of the Code
(collectively, 'Plans'). A Plan will qualify for purchases at net asset value
provided that (a) the initial amount invested in one or more of the Portfolios
(or in combination with the shares of other funds in the SunAmerica Mutual
Funds, which consist of the SunAmerica Equity Funds, SunAmerica Income Funds and
SunAmerica Money Market Funds) is at least $1,000,000, (b) the sponsor signs a
$1,000,000 Letter of Intent, (c) such shares are purchased by an
employer-sponsored plan with at least 100 eligible employees, or (d) the
purchases are by trustees or other fiduciaries for certain employer-sponsored
plans, the trustee, fiduciary or administrator for which has an agreement with
the Distributor with respect to such purchases and all such transactions for the
plan are executed through a single omnibus

account. Nevertheless, the Distributor will pay a commission to any dealer who
initiates or is responsible for such an investment, in the amount of 1.00% of
the amount invested. Redemptions of such shares within the twelve months
following their purchase will be subject to a CDSC at the rate of 1.00% of the
lesser of the net asset value of the shares being redeemed (exclusive of
reinvested dividends and distributions) or the total cost of such shares. This
CDSC is paid to the Distributor. Redemptions of such shares held longer than
twelve months would not be subject to a CDSC. However, one-half of the
commission paid with respect to such a purchase is subject to forfeiture by the
dealer in the event the redemption occurs during the second year from the date
of purchase. In determining whether a deferred sales charge is payable, it is
assumed that shares purchased with reinvested dividends and distributions and
then other shares held the longest are redeemed first.
 
To the extent that sales are made for personal investment purposes, the sales
charge is waived as to Class A shares purchased by current or retired officers,
directors, and other full-time employees of SunAmerica Inc. and its affiliates,
as well as members of the selling group and family members of the foregoing. In
addition, the sales charge is waived with respect to shares purchased by wrap or
certain other advisory accounts for the benefit of clients of broker-dealers,
financial institutions, registered investment advisers or financial planners
adhering to certain standards established by the Distributor. Shares purchased
under this waiver are subject to certain limitations described in the Statement
of Additional Information. Complete details concerning how an investor may
purchase shares at reduced sales charges may be obtained by contacting
Shareholder/Dealer Services at (800) 858-8850.
 
There are certain special purchase plans for Class A shares which can reduce the
amount of the initial sales charge to investors in the Portfolios. For more
information about 'Rights of Accumulation,' the 'Letter of Intent,' 'Combined
Purchase Privilege' and 'Reduced Sales Charges for Group Purchases,' see the
Statement of Additional Information.
 
   
Class B Shares.  Class B shares are offered at net asset value. Certain
redemptions of Class B shares within the first six years of the date of purchase
are subject to a CDSC. The charge is assessed on an amount equal to the lesser
of the then-current market value or the purchase price of the shares being
redeemed. No charge is assessed on shares derived from reinvestment of dividends
or capital gains distributions. In determining whether the CDSC is applicable to
a redemption, the calculation is determined in the manner that results in the
lowest possible rate being charged. Therefore, it is assumed that the redemption
is first of any shares of a class other than Class B that are not themselves
subject to a CDSC, second of any shares in the shareholder's Portfolio account
that are not subject to a CDSC (i.e., shares representing reinvested dividends
and distributions), third of Class B shares held for more than six years and
fourth of such shares held the longest during the six-year period. The CDSC will
not be applied to dollar amounts representing an increase in the net asset value
of the shares being redeemed since the time of purchase of such redeemed shares.
The amount of the CDSC, if any, will vary depending on the number of years from
the time of payment for the purchase of Class B shares until the time of
redemption of such shares. Solely for purposes of determining the number of
years from the time of any payment for the purchase of shares, all payments
during a month are aggregated and deemed to have been made on the first day of
the month. The following table sets forth the rates of the CDSC.

Conversion Feature--Class B Shares. Class B shares (including a pro rata portion
of the Class B shares purchased through the reinvestment of dividends and
distributions) will convert automatically to Class A shares on the first
business day of the month following the seventh anniversary of the issuance of
such Class B shares. Subsequent to the conversion of a Class B share to a Class
A share, such shares will no longer be subject to the higher distribution fee of
Class B shares. Such conversion will be on the basis of the relative net asset
values of Class B shares and Class A shares, without the imposition of any sales
load, fee or charge.
 
Class C Shares.  Class C shares are offered at net asset value. Certain
redemptions of Class C shares within the first year of the date of purchase are
subject to a CDSC of 1%. The method for calculating

any such CDSC will be the same method used for calculating the CDSC for Class B
shares. See 'Class B Shares' above.
 
Waiver of CDSC.  The CDSC applicable to Class B and Class C shares will be
waived, subject to certain conditions, in connection with redemptions that are
(a) requested within one year of the death of the shareholder of an individual
account or of a joint tenant where the surviving joint tenant is the deceased's
spouse; (b) requested within one year after the shareholder of an individual
account or a joint tenant on a spousal joint account becomes disabled; or the
initial determination of disability of a shareholder; (c) taxable distributions
or loans to participants made by qualified retirement plans or retirement
accounts (not including rollovers) for which SunAmerica serves as fiduciary
(e.g., prepares all necessary tax reporting documents); provided that, in the
case of a taxable distribution, the plan participant or account holder has
attained the age of 59 1/2 at the time the redemption is made; and (d) made
pursuant to a Systematic Withdrawal Plan, up to a maximum amount of 12% per year
from a shareholder account based on the value of the account at the time the
Plan is established, provided, however, that all dividends and capital gains
distributions are reinvested in Portfolio shares. See the Statement of
Additional Information for further information concerning conditions with
respect to (a) and (b) above. For information on the waiver of the CDSC contact
Shareholder/Dealer services at (800) 858-8850.
 
Other CDSC Information.  For Federal income tax purposes, the amount of the CDSC
will reduce the amount realized on the redemption of shares, concomitantly
reducing gain or increasing loss. For information on the imposition of the CDSC,
contact Shareholder/Dealer Services at (800) 858-8850.
 
   
Asset Protection Plan (Optional).  Anchor National Life Insurance Company (the
'Life Company'), an affiliate of SunAmerica and the Distributor, offers an Asset
Protection Plan to certain investors in the Portfolio. The benefits of this
optional term life insurance (payable on the death of the insured) will relate
to the amounts paid to purchase Portfolio shares and to the value of the
Portfolio shares held for the benefit of the insured persons. However, to the
extent such purchased shares are redeemed prior to death, coverage with respect
to such shares will terminate.
    
 
   
Purchasers of the Asset Protection Plan are required to authorize periodic
redemptions of Portfolio shares to pay the premiums for such coverage. Such
redemptions will not be subject to CDSCs, but will have the same tax
consequences as any other Fund redemptions.
    
 
   
The Asset Protection Plan will be available to eligible persons who enroll for
the coverage within a limited time period after shares in the Portfolio are
initially purchased or transferred. In addition, coverage cannot be made
available unless the Life Company knows for whose benefit shares are purchased.
For instance, coverage cannot be made available for shares registered in the
name of your broker unless the broker provides the Life Company with information
regarding the beneficial owners of such shares. In addition, coverage is
available only to shares purchased on behalf of natural persons under the age of
75 years; coverage is not available with respect to shares purchased for a
retirement account. Other restrictions on the coverage apply. This coverage may
not be available in all states and may be subject to additional restrictions or
limitations. Purchasers of shares should also make themselves familiar with the
impact on the Asset Protection Plan coverage of purchasing additional shares,
reinvestment of dividends and capital gains distributions and redemptions.
    
 
   
Please call (800) 858-8850 for more information, including the cost of the Asset
Protection Plan option.
    
 
Additional Purchase Information.  All purchases are confirmed to each
shareholder. The Fund reserves the right to reject any purchase order and may at
any time discontinue the sale of any class of shares of any Portfolio.

Shares of the Portfolios may be purchased through the Distributor or SAFS, by
check or federal funds wire and through a dollar cost averaging program. Checks
should be made payable to the specific Portfolio of the Fund. If the payment is
for a retirement plan account for which the Adviser serves as fiduciary, please
indicate on the check that payment is for such an account. Payments to open new
accounts should be mailed to SunAmerica Fund Services, Inc., Mutual Fund
Operations, The SunAmerica Center, 733 Third Avenue, New York, New York
10017-3204, together with a completed New Account Application. Payment for
subsequent purchases should be mailed to SunAmerica Fund Services, Inc., c/o
NFDS, P.O. Box 419373, Kansas City, Missouri 64141-6373 and the shareholder's
account number for the Portfolio should appear on the check. For fiduciary
retirement plan accounts, both initial and subsequent purchases should be mailed
to SunAmerica Fund Services, Inc., Mutual Fund Operations, The SunAmerica
Center, 733 Third Avenue, New York, New York 10017-3204. SAFS reserves the right
to reject any check made payable other than in the manner indicated above. Under
certain circumstances, the Fund will accept a multi-party check (e.g., a check
made payable to the shareholder by another party and then endorsed by the
shareholder to the Fund in payment for the purchase of shares); however, the
processing of such a check may be subject to a delay. The Fund does not verify
the authenticity of the endorsement of such multi-party check, and acceptance of
the check by the Fund should not be considered verification thereof. Neither the
Fund nor its affiliates will be held liable for any losses incurred as a result
of a fraudulent endorsement. Shares will be priced at the net asset value next
determined after the order is placed with the Distributor or SAFS. See
'Additional Information Regarding Purchase of Shares' in the Statement of
Additional Information for more information regarding these services and the
procedures involved and when orders are deemed to be placed.
 
REDEMPTION OF SHARES
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 
Shares of any Portfolio may be redeemed at any time at their net asset value
next determined, less any applicable CDSC, after receipt by the Fund of a
redemption request in proper form. Any capital gain or loss realized by a
shareholder upon any redemption of shares will be recognized for federal income
tax purposes, subject to certain loss deferral rules. See 'Dividends,
Distributions and Taxes.'
 
General.  Normally payment is made by check mailed on the next business day for
shares redeemed, but in any event, payment is made by check mailed within seven
days after receipt by the Transfer Agent of share certificates or of a
redemption request, or both, in proper form. Under unusual circumstances, the
Portfolio may suspend repurchases or postpone payment for up to seven days or
longer, as permitted by the federal securities laws.
 
Regular Redemption.  Shareholders may redeem their shares by sending a written
request to SAFS, Mutual Fund Operations, The SunAmerica Center, 733 Third
Avenue, New York, NY 10017-3204. Requests for redemption of shares with a value
of less than $100,000 will be made by check made payable to the shareholders(s)
and mailed to the address of record. All written requests for redemption of
shares with a value of $100,000 or more, or those mailed to an address other
than the address of record, must be endorsed by the shareholder(s) with
signature(s) guaranteed by an 'eligible guarantor institution' which includes:
banks, brokers, dealers, credit unions, securities and exchange associations,
clearing agencies and savings associations. Guarantees must be signed by an
authorized signatory of the eligible guarantor and the words 'Signature
Guaranteed' must appear with the signature. Signature guarantees by notaries
will not be accepted. SAFS may request further documentation from corporations,
executors, administrators, trustees or guardians.
 
Repurchase Through The Distributor.  The Distributor is authorized, as agent for
the Portfolios, to offer to repurchase shares which are presented by telephone
to the Distributor by investment dealers. Orders received by dealers must be at
least $500. The repurchase price is the net asset value per share of the
applicable class of shares of a Portfolio next-determined after the repurchase
order is received, less any applicable CDSC. Repurchase orders received by the
Distributor after the Fund's close of business, will be priced based on the next
business day's close. Dealers may charge for their services in connection with
the repurchase, but neither the

<PAGE>

58

STYLE SELECT SERIES(Registered)

Portfolios nor the Distributor imposes any such service charge. The offer to
repurchase may be suspended at any time, as described below.
 
Telephone Redemption.  The Fund accepts telephone requests for redemption of
shares with a value of less than $100,000. The proceeds of a telephone
redemption may be sent by check payable to the shareholder(s) and mailed to the
address of record by wire to the shareholder's bank account as set forth in the
New Account Application Form or in a subsequent written authorization.
Shareholders utilizing the redemption through the electronic funds transfer
method will incur a $15.00 transaction fee. The Fund will employ reasonable
procedures to confirm that instructions communicated by telephone are genuine.
Failure to do so may result in liability to the Fund for losses incurred due to
unauthorized or fraudulent telephone instructions. Such procedures include, but
are not limited to, requiring some form of personal identification prior to
acting upon instructions received by telephone and/or tape recording of
telephone instructions.
 
A shareholder making a telephone redemption should call Shareholder/Dealer
Services at (800) 858-8850, and state (i) the name of the shareholder(s)
appearing on the Fund's records, (ii) his or her account number with the Fund,
(iii) the name of the Portfolio, (iv) the amount to be redeemed, and (v) the
name of the person(s) requesting the redemption. The Fund reserves the right to
terminate or modify the telephone redemption service at any time.
 
Systematic Withdrawal Plan.  Shareholders who have invested at least $5,000 in
any of the Portfolios may provide for the periodic payment from the account
pursuant to the Systematic Withdrawal Plan. At the shareholder's election, such
payment may be made directly to the shareholder or to a third party on a
monthly, quarterly, semi-annual or annual basis. The minimum periodic payment is
$50. Maintenance of a withdrawal plan concurrently with purchases of additional
shares may be disadvantageous to a shareholder because of the sales charge
applicable to such purchases. Shareholders who have been issued share
certificates will not be eligible to participate in the Systematic Withdrawal
Plan and will have to comply with certain additional procedures in order to
redeem shares. Further information may be obtained by calling Shareholder/
Dealer Services at (800) 858-8850.
 
Other Redemption Information.  At various times, a Portfolio may be requested to
redeem shares for which it has not yet received good payment. A Portfolio may
delay or cause to be delayed the mailing of a redemption check until such time
as good payment (e.g., cash or certified check drawn on a United States bank)
has been collected for the purchase of such shares, which will not exceed 15
days.
 
Because of the high cost of maintaining smaller shareholder accounts, the
Portfolio may redeem, on at least 60 days' written notice and without
shareholder consent, any account that has a net asset value of less than $500
($250 for retirement plan accounts), as of the close of business on the day
preceding such notice, unless such shareholder increases the account balance to
at least $500 during such 60-day period. In the alternative, the applicable
Portfolio may impose a $2.00 monthly charge on accounts below the minimum
account size.
 
If a shareholder redeems shares of any class of a Portfolio and then within one
year from the date of redemption decides the shares should not have been
redeemed, the shareholder may use all or any part of the redemption proceeds to
reinstate, free of sales charges (Class A shares) and with the crediting of any
CDSC paid with respect to such reinstated shares at the time of redemption
(Class B and Class C shares), all or any part of the redemption proceeds in
shares of the Portfolio at the then-current net asset value. Reinstatement may
affect the tax status of the prior redemption.
 
EXCHANGE PRIVILEGE
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 
   
General.  Shareholders in any of the Portfolios may exchange their shares for
the same class of shares of any other Portfolio or other SunAmerica Fund that
offers such class at the respective net asset value per share. Additionally,
Class C shareholders of a Portfolio may exchange their shares for Class II
shares of another fund in the SunAmerica Family of Mutual Funds. Before making
an exchange, a shareholder should obtain and review the prospectus of the fund
whose shares are being acquired. All exchanges are subject to applicable minimum
initial investment requirements and can only be effected if the shares
    

<PAGE>
                                                                              59

                                                STYLE SELECT SERIES(Registered)

to be acquired are qualified for sale in the state in which the shareholder
resides. Exchanges of shares generally will constitute a taxable transaction
except for IRAs, Keogh Plans and other qualified or tax-exempt accounts. The
exchange privilege may be terminated or modified upon 60 days' written notice.
Further information about the exchange privilege may be obtained by calling
Shareholder/ Dealer Services at (800) 858-8850.
 
If a shareholder acquires Class A shares through an exchange from another fund
in the SunAmerica Family of Mutual Funds where the original purchase of such
fund's Class A shares was not subject to an initial sales charge because the
purchase was in excess of $1 million, such shareholder will remain subject to
the 1% CDSC, if any, applicable to such redemptions. In such event, the period
for which the original shares were held prior to the exchange will be 'tacked'
with the holding period of the shares acquired in the exchange for purposes of
determining whether the 1% CDSC is applicable upon a redemption of any of such
shares.
 
A shareholder who acquires Class B or Class C shares through an exchange from
another fund in the SunAmerica Family of Mutual Funds will retain liability for
any CDSC outstanding on the date of the exchange. In such event, the period for
which the original shares were held prior to the exchange will be 'tacked' with
the holding period of the shares acquired in the exchange for purposes of
determining what, if any, CDSC is applicable upon a redemption of any of such
shares and of determining the timing of conversion of Class B shares to Class A.
 
Restrictions on Exchanges.  Because excessive trading (including short-term
'market timing' trading) can hurt a Portfolio's performance, each Portfolio may
refuse any exchange sell order (1) if it appears to be a market timing
transaction involving a significant portion of a Portfolio's assets or (2) from
any shareholder account if previous use of the exchange privilege is considered
excessive. Accounts under common ownership or control, including, but not
limited to, those with the same taxpayer identification number and those
administered so as to redeem or purchase shares based upon certain predetermined
market indications, will be considered one account for this purpose.
 
In addition, a Portfolio reserves the right to refuse any exchange purchase
order if, in the judgment of SunAmerica, the Portfolio would be unable to invest
effectively in accordance with its investment objective and policies, or would
otherwise potentially be adversely affected. A shareholder's purchase exchange
may be restricted or refused if the Portfolio receives or anticipates
simultaneous orders affecting significant portions of the Portfolio's assets. In
particular, a pattern of exchanges that coincide with a 'market timing' strategy
may be disruptive to the Portfolio and may therefore be refused.
 
Finally, as indicated under 'Purchase of Shares,' the Fund and Distributor
reserve the right to refuse any order for the purchase of shares.
 
PORTFOLIO TRANSACTIONS, BROKERAGE AND TURNOVER
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 
The Advisers are responsible for decisions to buy and sell securities for the
Portfolios, selection of broker-dealers and negotiation of commission rates for
their respective portion of the relevant Portfolio. In the over-the-counter
market, securities are generally traded on a 'net' basis with dealers acting as
principal for their own accounts without a stated commission (although the price
of the security usually includes a profit to the dealer). In underwritten
offerings, securities are purchased at a fixed price which includes an
underwriter's concession or discount. On occasion, certain money market
securities may be purchased directly from an issuer, in which case no
commissions or discounts are paid.
 
As a general matter, the Advisers select broker-dealers which, in their best
judgment, provide prompt and reliable execution at favorable security prices and
reasonable commission rates. The Advisers may select broker-dealers which
provide them with research services and may cause a Portfolio to pay such
broker-dealers commissions which exceed those which other broker-dealers may
have charged, if in the Adviser's view the commissions are reasonable in
relation to the value of the brokerage and/or research services provided by the
broker-dealer. Brokerage arrangements may take into account the distribution of
Fund shares by broker-dealers, subject to best price and execution. In addition,
brokerage may be allocated to brokers that pay (or cause

<PAGE>

STYLE SELECT SERIES(Registered)

   
to be paid) expenses of the respective Portfolio, subject to best price and
execution. An Adviser may effect portfolio transactions through an affiliated
broker-dealer, acting as agent and not as principal, in accordance with Rule
17e-1 under the 1940 Act and other applicable securities laws.
    
 
Each Portfolio has no limitation regarding its policy with respect to portfolio
turnover. The portfolio turnover rate is calculated by dividing the lesser of
sales or purchases of portfolio securities, excluding short-term securities, by
the average monthly value of the Portfolio's long-term portfolio securities.
Under certain market conditions, the investment policies of the Portfolios may
result in high portfolio turnover. Because each of the Advisers to each
Portfolio manages its portion of the Portfolio's assets independently, it is
possible that the same security may be purchased and sold on the same day by two
or more Advisers to the same Portfolio, resulting in higher brokerage
commissions for the Portfolio. Notwithstanding the foregoing, however, the
portfolio turnover rates for any Portfolio are not expected to exceed 200%. High
portfolio turnover involves correspondingly greater brokerage commissions and
other transaction costs which will be borne directly by the Portfolio. In
addition, high portfolio turnover may result in increased short-term capital
gains, which, when distributed to shareholders, are currently treated as
ordinary income.
 
DETERMINATION OF NET ASSET VALUE
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 
Each Portfolio is open for business on any day the NYSE is open for regular
trading. Shares are valued each day as of the close of regular trading on the
NYSE (generally, 4:00 p.m., Eastern time). Each Portfolio calculates the net
asset value per share of each class separately by dividing the total value of
each class's net assets by the number of shares outstanding of each class.
Investments for which market quotations are readily available are valued at
market at their closing price. All other securities and assets are valued at
fair value following procedures approved by the Directors. For a complete
description of the procedures involved in valuing various Fund assets, see the
Statement of Additional Information.
 
PERFORMANCE DATA
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 
Each Portfolio may advertise performance data that reflect its total investment
return. A brief summary of the computations is provided below and a detailed
discussion is in the Statement of Additional Information. Total return is based
on historical earnings and is not intended to indicate future performance.
 
Total return performance data may be advertised by each Portfolio. The average
annual total return may be calculated for one-, five- and ten-year periods
or for the lesser period since inception. These
performance data represent the average annual percentage changes of a
hypothetical $1,000 investment and assumes the reinvestment of all dividends and
distributions and includes sales charges and recurring fees that are charged to
shareholder accounts. A Portfolio's advertisements may also reflect total return
performance data calculated by means of cumulative, aggregate, average, year-to-
date, or other total return figures. Further, the Portfolio may advertise total
return performance for periods of time in addition to those noted above.
 
Although expenses for Class B and Class C shares may be higher than those for
Class A shares, the performance of Class B and Class C shares may be higher than
the performance of Class A shares after giving effect to the impact of the sales
charges and 12b-1 fees applicable to each class of shares.
 
DIVIDENDS, DISTRIBUTIONS AND TAXES
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 
Dividends and Distributions.  For each Portfolio other than the Large-Cap Blend
Portfolio, dividends from net investment income, if any, are to be paid at least
annually. For the Large-Cap Blend Portfolio, dividends from net investment
income, if any, are to be paid quarterly. Dividends and distributions generally
are taxable in the year in which they are paid, except any dividends paid in
January which were declared in the previous calendar quarter will be treated as
paid in December of the previous year.

<PAGE>

                                                                              61

                                                STYLE SELECT SERIES(Registered)

Dividends and distributions are to be paid in additional shares based on the
next determined net asset value, unless the shareholder elects in writing, not
less than five business days prior to the payment date, to receive amounts in
excess of $10 in cash.
 
If a shareholder has elected to receive dividends and/or capital gain
distributions in cash, and the postal or other delivery service is unable to
deliver checks to the shareholder's address of record, no interest will accrue
on amounts represented by uncashed dividend or distribution checks.
 
In addition to having the dividends and distributions of a Portfolio reinvested
in shares of such Portfolio, a shareholder may, if he or she so elects on the
New Account Application, have dividends and distributions invested in the same
class of shares of any other SunAmerica Mutual Fund or any other Portfolio of
the Fund at the then-current net asset value of such fund(s).
 
The excess of net realized capital gains from the sale of assets held for more
than 12 months over net capital losses ('net capital gains'), if any, with
respect to each Portfolio, will be distributed to the shareholders at least
annually. Each Portfolio's policy is to offset any prior year capital loss carry
forward against any realized capital gains, and accordingly, no distribution of
capital gains will be made until gains have been realized in excess of any such
loss carry forward.
 
Taxes.  Each Portfolio intends to qualify and elect to be taxed as a regulated
investment company under the Code. While so qualified, the Fund and each of the
Portfolios will not be subject to U.S. Federal income tax on the portion of its
investment company taxable income and net capital gains distributed to its
shareholders.
 
Dividends of net investment income and distributions of any net realized
short-term capital gain ('ordinary income dividends'), whether paid in cash or
reinvested in shares of the Portfolios, are taxable to shareholders as ordinary
income. Distributions made from the Fund's net capital gains (including gains
from certain transactions in futures and options) are taxable to shareholders as
capital gains, regardless of the length of time the shareholder has owned Fund
shares. To the extent a Portfolio's income is derived from certain dividends
received from domestic corporations, a portion of the dividends paid to
corporate shareholders of such Portfolios will be eligible for the 70%
dividends-received deduction. It generally is not anticipated that dividends
paid by the International Equity Portfolio will qualify for the dividends-
received deduction.
 
Ordinary income dividends paid by the Fund to shareholders who are non-resident
aliens or foreign entities generally will be subject to a 30% United States
withholding tax under existing provisions of the Code applicable to foreign
individuals and entities unless a reduced rate of withholding or a withholding
exemption is provided under applicable treaty law. Nonresident shareholders are
urged to consult their own tax advisers concerning the applicability of the
United States withholding tax.
 
   
Income and capital gains received by each Portfolio with respect to foreign
investments may give rise to withholding and other taxes imposed by foreign
countries. Tax conventions between certain countries and the U.S. may reduce or
eliminate such taxes. Shareholders may be able to claim U.S. foreign tax credits
with respect to such taxes, subject to certain provisions and limitations
contained in the Code. If more than 50% in value of the Portfolio's total assets
at the close of its taxable year consists of securities of foreign corporations,
the Portfolio will be eligible and may choose to file an election with the
Internal Revenue Service pursuant to which shareholders of the Portfolio may
include their proportionate share of such withholding taxes in their U.S. income
tax returns as gross income, treat such proportionate share as taxes paid by
them, and deduct such proportionate share in computing their taxable incomes or,
alternatively, subject to certain limitations, holding period requirements and
other provisions, use them as foreign tax credits against their U.S. income
taxes. No deductions for foreign taxes, however, may be claimed by non-corporate
shareholders who do not itemize deductions. Of course, certain retirement
accounts which are not subject to tax cannot claim foreign tax credits on
investments in foreign securities held in the Fund. A shareholder that is a
nonresident alien individual or a foreign corporation may be subject to U.S.
withholding tax on the income resulting from the Portfolio's election described
in this paragraph but may not be able to claim a credit or deduction against
such U.S. tax for the foreign taxes treated as having been paid by such
shareholder. The Portfolio will report annually to its shareholders the amount
per share of such withholding taxes. It is not anticipated that the Portfolios,
other than the International Equity Portfolio, will qualify to elect to pass
foreign taxes through to their shareholders.
    
 
No gain or loss will be recognized by Class B shareholders on the conversion of
their Class B shares into Class A shares. A shareholder's basis in the Class A
shares acquired will be the same as such shareholder's basis in the Class B
shares converted,

<PAGE>

62

STYLE SELECT SERIES(Registered)

and the holding period of the acquired Class A shares will include the holding
period for the converted Class B shares.
 
   
A shareholder who holds shares as a capital asset (i.e., generally, for
investment) generally will recognize a capital gain or loss upon the sale or
exchange of such shares. In the case of an individual, any such capital gain
will be treated as short-term capital gain if the shares were held for not more
than 12 months, capital gain taxable at the maximum rate of 28% if such shares
were held for more than 12, but not more than 18 months, and capital gain
taxable at the maximum rate of 20% if such shares were held for more than 18
months. In the case of a corporation, any such capital gain will be treated as
long-tem capital gain, taxable at the same rates as ordinary income, if such
shares were held for more than 12 months. Any such capital loss will be a long-
term capital loss if such shares were held for more than one year. However, any
loss realized by a shareholder who held shares for six months or less will be
treated as a long-term capital loss to the extent of any distributions of net
capital gains received by the shareholder with respect to such shares.
    
 
If a shareholder exercises the exchange privilege within 90 days of acquiring
such shares, then the loss the shareholder can recognize on the exchange will be
reduced (or the gain increased) to the extent the sales charge paid to the Fund
reduces any charges the shareholder would have owed upon the purchase of the new
shares in the absence of the exchange privilege. Instead, such sales charge will
be treated as an amount paid for the new shares. See 'Exchange Privilege.'
 
A loss realized on a sale or exchange of shares of the Fund will be disallowed
if other Fund shares are acquired (whether through the automatic reinvestment of
dividends or otherwise) within a 61-day period beginning 30 days before and
ending 30 days after the date that the shares are disposed of. In such a case,
the basis of the shares acquired will be adjusted to reflect the disallowed
loss.
 
Under certain provisions of the Code, some shareholders may be subject to a 31%
withholding tax on ordinary income dividends, capital gains distributions and
redemption payments ('backup withholding'). Generally, shareholders subject to
backup withholding will be those for whom no certified taxpayer identification
number is on file with the Fund or who, to the Fund's knowledge, have furnished
an incorrect number. When establishing an account, an investor must certify
under penalty of perjury that such number is correct and that the investor is
not otherwise subject to backup withholding.
 
Statements as to the tax status of distributions to shareholders of the Fund
will be mailed annually. Shareholders are urged to consult their own tax
advisers regarding specific questions as to federal, state or local taxes.
Foreign shareholders are also urged to consult their own tax advisers regarding
the foreign tax consequences of ownership of interests in a Portfolio. See
'Dividends, Distributions and Taxes' in the Statement of Additional Information.
 
GENERAL INFORMATION
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 
Reports to Shareholders.  The Fund sends to its shareholders audited annual and
unaudited semi-annual reports for the Portfolios. The financial statements
appearing in annual reports are audited by independent accountants. In addition,
the Transfer Agent sends to each shareholder having an account directly with the
Fund a statement confirming transactions in the account.
 
Organization.  The Fund, a corporation organized under the laws of the state of
Maryland on July 3, 1996, is an open-end management investment company, commonly
referred to as a mutual fund. The total number of shares which the Fund has
authority to issue is one billion (1,000,000,000) shares of common stock (par
value $0.0001 per share), amounting in aggregate par value to one hundred
thousand dollars ($100,000.00). All of such shares of common stock are
classified into nine separate Portfolios known as the Large-Cap Growth
Portfolio, the Mid-Cap Growth Portfolio, the Aggressive Growth Portfolio, the
Large-Cap Blend Portfolio, the Large-Cap Value Portfolio, the Value Portfolio,
the Small-Cap Value Portfolio, the International Equity Portfolio and the Focus
Portfolio. Except for the Focus Portfolio, all of the shares of each such
Portfolio are initially classified into four classes: Class A, Class B, Class C
or Class Z. Each such Portfolio initially consists of twenty-five million
(25,000,000) shares of each class. Only Class A, Class B and Class C shares are
currently being offered to the public. The Focus Portfolio is offered through a
separate prospectus which can be obtained by contacting Shareholder/Dealer
Services at (800) 858-8850.
 
The Fund does not hold annual shareholder meetings. The Directors are required
to call a meeting of shareholders for the purpose of voting upon the

<PAGE>

                                                                              63

question of removal of any Director when so requested in writing by the
shareholders of record holding at least 10% of the Fund's outstanding shares.
Each share of each Portfolio has equal voting rights on each matter pertaining
to that Portfolio or matters to be voted upon by the Fund. Each share of each
Portfolio is entitled to participate equally with the other shares of that
Portfolio in dividends and other distributions and the proceeds of any
liquidation, except that, due to the differing expenses borne by the classes,
such dividends and proceeds are likely to be lower for Class B and Class C
shares than for Class A shares. See the Statement of Additional Information for
more information with respect to the distinctions among classes.
 
Independent Accountants and Legal Counsel.  Price Waterhouse LLP has been
selected as independent accountants for the Fund. The firm of Shereff, Friedman,
Hoffman & Goodman, LLP has been selected as legal counsel for the Fund.
 
   
Year 2000 Readiness.  Many services provided to the Fund and the shareholders by
SunAmerica, the Advisers, the Distributor and the Administrator rely on the
smooth functioning of their computer and computer-based systems as well as those
of their outside service providers. Many computer and computer-based systems
cannot distinguish the year 2000 from the year 1900 because of the way the
systems encode and calculate dates. This year 2000 issue could potentially have
an adverse impact on the handling of security trades, the payment of interest
and dividends, pricing and account services. SunAmerica, the Advisers, the
Distributor and the Administrator recognize the importance of the year 2000
issue and are taking the appropriate steps necessary in preparation of the year
2000. SunAmerica, the Advisers, the Distributor and the Administrator fully
anticipate that their systems and those of their outside service providers will
be adapted in time for the year 2000, and to further this goal have coordinated
a plan to repair, adapt or replace systems that are not year 2000 compliant, and
have obtained similar representations from their outside service providers.
SunAmerica, the Advisers, the Distributor and the Administrator expect to
significantly complete their plan by the end of the 1998 calendar year and
perform appropriate systems testing in the 1999 calendar year.

                                 THE FUND
   
         The Fund, organized as a Maryland corporation on July 3, 1996,
is an open-end management investment company registered under the
Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "1940 Act"). The Fund
consists of nine Portfolios; except for the Focus Portfolio, each offers
Class A, Class B and Class C shares. The Aggressive Growth Portfolio,
Large-Cap Value Portfolio, Value Portfolio, Small-Cap Value Portfolio and
International Equity Portfolio each offers Class Z shares.
    
                    INVESTMENT OBJECTIVES AND POLICIES

         The investment objective and policies of each of the Portfolios
are described in the Fund's Prospectus. Certain types of securities in
which the Portfolios may invest and certain investment practices which
the Portfolios may employ, which are described under "Investment
Techniques and Risk Factors" in the Prospectus, are discussed more fully
below.

         Warrants. A Portfolio may invest in warrants which give the
holder of the warrant a right to purchase a given number of shares of a
particular issue at a specified price until expiration. Such investments
generally can provide a greater potential for profit or loss than
investments of equivalent amounts in the underlying common stock. The
prices of warrants do not necessarily move with the prices of the
underlying securities. If the holder does not sell the warrant, he risks
the loss of his entire investment if the market price of the underlying
stock does not, before the expiration date, exceed the exercise price of
the warrant plus the cost thereof. Investment in warrants is a
speculative activity. Warrants pay no dividends and confer no rights
(other than the right to purchase the underlying stock) with respect to
the assets of the issuer.

         Investment in Small, Unseasoned Companies. As described in the
Prospectus, each Portfolio may invest in the securities of small
companies having market capitalizations under $1 billion. These
securities may have a limited trading market, which may adversely affect
their disposition and can result in their being priced lower than might
otherwise be the case. If other investment companies and investors who
invest in such issuers trade the same securities when a Portfolio
attempts to dispose of its holdings, the Portfolio may receive lower
prices than might otherwise be obtained.

         Companies with a market capitalization of $1 billion to $5
billion ("Mid-Cap Companies") may also suffer more significant losses as
well as realize more substantial growth than larger, more established
issuers. Thus, investments in such companies tend to be more volatile and
somewhat speculative.

         Foreign Securities. Investments in foreign securities offer
potential benefits not available from investments solely in securities of
domestic issuers by offering the opportunity to invest in foreign issuers
that appear to offer growth potential, or in foreign countries with
economic policies or business cycles different from those of the U.S., or
to reduce fluctuations in portfolio value by taking advantage of foreign
stock markets that do not move in a manner parallel to U.S. markets.


                                   B-2

<PAGE>



         Each Portfolio may invest in securities of foreign issuers in
the form of American Depositary Receipts (ADRs), European Depositary
Receipts (EDRs), Global Depositary Receipts (GDRs) or other similar
securities convertible into securities of foreign issuers. ADRs are
securities, typically issued by a U.S. financial institution, that
evidence ownership interests in a security or a pool of securities issued
by a foreign issuer and deposited with the depository. ADRs may be
sponsored or unsponsored. A sponsored ADR is issued by a depository which
has an exclusive relationship with the issuer of the underlying security.
An unsponsored ADR may be issued by any number of U.S. depositories.
Holders of unsponsored ADRs generally bear all the costs associated with
establishing the unsponsored ADR. The depository of an unsponsored ADR is
under no obligation to distribute shareholder communications received
from the underlying issuer or to pass through to the holders of the
unsponsored ADR voting rights with respect to the deposited securities or
pool of securities. A Portfolio may invest in either type of ADR.
Although the U.S. investor holds a substitute receipt of ownership rather
than direct stock certificates, the use of the depository receipts in the
United States can reduce costs and delays as well as potential currency
exchange and other difficulties. The Portfolio may purchase securities in
local markets and direct delivery of these ordinary shares to the local
depository of an ADR agent bank in the foreign country. Simultaneously,
the ADR agents create a certificate which settles at the Fund's custodian
in three days. The Portfolio may also execute trades on the U.S. markets
using existing ADRs. A foreign issuer of the security underlying an ADR
is generally not subject to the same reporting requirements in the United
States as a domestic issuer. Accordingly the information available to a
U.S. investor will be limited to the information the foreign issuer is
required to disclose in its own country and the market value of an ADR
may not reflect undisclosed material information concerning the issuer of
the underlying security. For purposes of a Portfolio's investment
policies, the Portfolio's investments in these types of securities will
be deemed to be investments in the underlying securities. Generally ADRs,
in registered form, are dollar denominated securities designed for use in
the U.S. securities markets, which represent and may be converted into
the underlying foreign security. EDRs, in bearer form, are designed for
use in the European securities markets.

         Investments in foreign securities, including securities of
developing countries, present special additional investment risks and
considerations not typically associated with investments in domestic
securities, including reduction of income by foreign taxes; fluctuation
in value of foreign portfolio investments due to changes in currency
rates and control regulations (e.g., currency blockage); transaction
charges for currency exchange; lack of public information about foreign
issuers; lack of uniform accounting, auditing and financial reporting
standards comparable to those applicable to domestic issuers; less volume
on foreign exchanges than on U.S. exchanges; greater volatility and less
liquidity on foreign markets than in the U.S.; less regulation of foreign
issuers, stock exchanges and brokers than the U.S.; greater difficulties
in commencing lawsuits; higher brokerage commission rates than the U.S.;
increased possibilities in some countries of expropriation, confiscatory
taxation, political, financial or social instability or adverse
diplomatic developments; and differences (which may be favorable or
unfavorable) between the U.S. economy and foreign economies.

   
         Passive Foreign Investment Companies ("PFICs"). The Large-Cap
Growth Portfolio, Aggressive Growth Portfolio and International Equity
Portfolio may invest in PFICs, which are any foreign corporations which
generate certain amounts of passive income or hold certain amounts of
    

                                   B-3

<PAGE>



   
assets for the production of passive income. Passive income includes
dividends, interest, royalties, rents and annuities. To the extent that a
Portfolio invests in PFICs, income tax regulations may require the
Portfolio to elect to recognize income associated with the PFIC prior to
the actual receipt of any such income in order to avoid adverse tax
consequences.
    

         U.S. Government Securities. A Portfolio may invest in U.S.
Treasury securities, including bills, notes, bonds and other debt
securities issued by the U.S. Treasury. These instruments are direct
obligations of the U.S. government and, as such, are backed by the "full
faith and credit" of the United States. They differ primarily in their
interest rates, the lengths of their maturities and the dates of their
issuances. A Portfolio may also invest in securities issued by agencies
of the U.S. government or instrumentalities of the U.S. government. These
obligations, including those which are guaranteed by federal agencies or
instrumentalities, may or may not be backed by the "full faith and
credit" of the United States. Obligations of the Government National
Mortgage Association ("GNMA"), the Farmers Home Administration and the
Export-Import Bank are backed by the full faith and credit of the United
States. In the case of securities not backed by the full faith and credit
of the United States, a Portfolio must look principally to the agency
issuing or guaranteeing the obligation for ultimate repayment and may not
be able to assert a claim against the United States if the agency or
instrumentality does not meet its commitments.

         A Portfolio may, in addition to the U.S. government securities
noted above, invest in mortgage-backed securities (including private
mortgage-backed securities), such as GNMA, FNMA or FHLMC certificates (as
defined below), which represent an undivided ownership interest in a pool
of mortgages. The mortgages backing these securities include conventional
thirty-year fixed-rate mortgages, fifteen-year fixed-rate mortgages,
graduated payment mortgages and adjustable rate mortgages. These
certificates are in most cases pass-through instruments, through which
the holder receives a share of all interest and principal payments,
including prepayments, on the mortgages underlying the certificate, net
of certain fees.

         The yield on mortgage-backed securities is based on the average
expected life of the underlying pool of mortgage loans. The actual life
of any particular pool will be shortened by any unscheduled or early
payments of principal and interest. Principal prepayments generally
result from the sale of the underlying property or the refinancing or
foreclosure of underlying mortgages. The occurrence of prepayments is
affected by a wide range of economic, demographic and social factors and,
accordingly, it is not possible to predict accurately the average life of
a particular pool. Yield on such pools is usually computed by using the
historical record of prepayments for that pool, or, in the case of
newly-issued mortgages, the prepayment history of similar pools. The
actual prepayment experience of a pool of mortgage loans may cause the
yield realized by the Portfolio to differ from the yield calculated on
the basis of the expected average life of the pool.

         Prepayments tend to increase during periods of falling interest
rates, while during periods of rising interest rates prepayments will
most likely decline. When prevailing interest rates rise, the value of a
pass-through security may decrease as does the value of other debt
securities, but, when prevailing interest rates decline, the value of a
pass-through security is not likely to rise on a comparable basis with
other debt securities because of the prepayment feature of pass-through

                                   B-4

<PAGE>



securities. The reinvestment of scheduled principal payments and
unscheduled prepayments that the Portfolio receives may occur at higher
or lower rates than the original investment, thus affecting the yield of
the Portfolio. Monthly interest payments received by the Portfolio have a
compounding effect which may increase the yield to shareholders more than
debt obligations that pay interest semi-annually. Because of those
factors, mortgage-backed securities may be less effective than U.S.
Treasury bonds of similar maturity at maintaining yields during periods
of declining interest rates. Accelerated prepayments adversely affect
yields for pass-through securities purchased at a premium (i.e., at a
price in excess of principal amount) and may involve additional risk of
loss of principal because the premium may not have been fully amortized
at the time the obligation is repaid. The opposite is true for
pass-through securities purchased at a discount. A Portfolio may purchase
mortgage-backed securities at a premium or at a discount.

         The following is a description of GNMA, FNMA and FHLMC
certificates, the most widely available mortgage-backed securities:

         GNMA Certificates. GNMA Certificates are mortgage-backed
securities which evidence an undivided interest in a pool or pools of
mortgages. GNMA Certificates that a Portfolio may purchase are the
modified pass-through type, which entitle the holder to receive timely
payment of all interest and principal payments due on the mortgage pool,
net of fees paid to the issuer and GNMA, regardless of whether or not the
mortgagor actually makes the payment.

         GNMA guarantees the timely payment of principal and interest on
securities backed by a pool of mortgages insured by the Federal Housing
Administration or the Farmers' Home Administration, or guaranteed by the
Veterans Administration. The GNMA guarantee is authorized by the National
Housing Act and is backed by the full faith and credit of the United
States. The GNMA is also empowered to borrow without limitation from the
U.S. Treasury if necessary to make any payments required under its
guarantee.

         The average life of a GNMA Certificate is likely to be
substantially shorter than the original maturity of the mortgages
underlying the securities. Prepayments of principal by mortgagors and
mortgage foreclosure will usually result in the return of the greater
part of principal investment long before the maturity of the mortgages in
the pool. Foreclosures impose no risk to principal investment because of
the GNMA guarantee, except to the extent that a Portfolio has purchased
the certificates at a premium in the secondary market.

         FHLMC Certificates. The Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation
("FHLMC") issues two types of mortgage pass-through securities: mortgage
participation certificates ("PCS") and guaranteed mortgage certificates
("GMCs") (collectively, "FHLMC Certificates"). PCS resemble GNMA
Certificates in that each PC represents a pro rata share of all interest
and principal payments made and owed on the underlying pool. The FHLMC
guarantees timely monthly payment of interest (and, under certain
circumstances, principal) of PCS and the ultimate payment of principal.




                                   B-5

<PAGE>



         GMCs also represent a pro rata interest in a pool of mortgages.
However, these instruments pay interest semi-annually and return
principal once a year in guaranteed minimum payments. The expected
average life of these securities is approximately ten years. The FHLMC
guarantee is not backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S.
Government.

         FNMA Certificates. The Federal National Mortgage Association
("FNMA") issues guaranteed mortgage pass-through certificates ("FNMA
Certificates"). FNMA Certificates represent a pro rata share of all
interest and principal payments made and owed on the underlying pool.
FNMA guarantees timely payment of interest and principal on FNMA
Certificates. The FNMA guarantee is not backed by the full faith and
credit of the U.S. Government.

         Conventional mortgage pass-through securities ("Conventional
Mortgage Pass-Throughs") represent participation interests in pools of
mortgage loans that are issued by trusts formed by originators of the
institutional investors in mortgage loans (or represent custodial
arrangements administered by such institutions). These originators and
institutions include commercial banks, savings and loans associations,
credit unions, savings banks, insurance companies, investment banks or
special purpose subsidiaries of the foregoing. For federal income tax
purposes, such trusts are generally treated as grantor trusts or REMICs
and, in either case, are generally not subject to any significant amount
of federal income tax at the entity level.

         The mortgage pools underlying Conventional Mortgage
Pass-Throughs consist of conventional mortgage loans evidenced by
promissory notes secured by first mortgages or first deeds of trust or
other similar security instruments creating a first lien on residential
or mixed residential and commercial properties. Conventional Mortgage
Pass-Throughs (whether fixed or adjustable rate) provide for monthly
payments that are a "pass-through" of the monthly interest and principal
payments (including any prepayments) made by the individual borrowers on
the pooled mortgage loans, net of any fees or other amount paid to any
guarantor, administrator and/or servicer of the underlying mortgage
loans. A trust fund with respect to which a REMIC election has been made
may include regular interests in other REMICs which in turn will
ultimately evidence interests in mortgage loans.

         Conventional mortgage pools generally offer a higher rate of
interest than government and government-related pools because of the
absence of any direct or indirect government or agency payment
guarantees. However, timely payment of interest and principal of mortgage
loans in these pools may be supported by various forms of insurance or
guarantees, including individual loans, title, pool and hazard insurance
and letters of credit. The insurance and guarantees may be issued by
private insurers and mortgage poolers. Although the market for such
securities is becoming increasingly liquid, mortgage-related securities
issued by private organizations may not be readily marketable.

         Another type of mortgage-backed security in which each Portfolio
may invest is a collateralized mortgage obligation ("CMO"). CMOs are
fully collateralized bonds which are the general obligations of the
issuer thereof (e.g., the U.S. government, a U.S. government
instrumentality, or a private issuer). Such bonds generally are secured
by an assignment to a trustee

                                   B-6

<PAGE>



(under the indenture pursuant to which the bonds are issued) of
collateral consisting of a pool of mortgages. Payments with respect to
the underlying mortgages generally are made to the trustee under the
indenture. Payments of principal and interest on the underlying mortgages
are not passed through to the holders of the CMOs as such (i.e., the
character of payments of principal and interest is not passed through,
and therefore payments to holders of CMOs attributable to interest paid
and principal repaid on the underlying mortgages do not necessarily
constitute income and return of capital, respectively, to such holders),
but such payments are dedicated to payment of interest on and repayment
of principal of the CMOs.

         Principal and interest on the underlying mortgage assets may be
allocated among the several classes of CMOs in various ways. In certain
structures (known as "sequential pay" CMOs), payments of principal,
including any principal prepayments, on the mortgage assets generally are
applied to the classes of CMOs in the order of their respective final
distribution dates. Thus, no payment of principal will be made on any
class of sequential pay CMOs until all other classes having an earlier
final distribution date have been paid in full. -

         Additional structures of CMOs include, among others, "parallel
pay" CMOs. Parallel pay CMOs are those which are structured to apply
principal payments and prepayments of the mortgage assets to two or more
classes concurrently on a proportionate or disproportionate basis. These
simultaneous payments are taken into account in calculating the final
distribution date of each class.

         A wide variety of CMOs may be issued in the parallel pay or
sequential pay structures. These securities include accrual certificates
(also known as "Z-Bonds"), which only accrue interest at a specified rate
until all other certificates having an earlier final distribution date
have been retired and are converted thereafter to an interest-paying
security, and planned amortization class ("PAC") certificates, which are
parallel pay CMOs which generally require that specified amounts of
principal be applied on each payment date to one or more classes of CMOs
(the "PAC Certificates"), even though all other principal payments and
prepayments of the mortgage assets are then required to be applied to one
or more other classes of the certificates. The scheduled principal
payments for the PAC Certificates generally have the highest priority on
each payment date after interest due has been paid to all classes
entitled to receive interest currently. Shortfalls, if any, are added to
the amount payable on the next payment date. The PAC Certificate payment
schedule is taken into account in calculating the final distribution date
of each class of PAC. In order to create PAC tranches, one or more
tranches generally must be created to absorb most of the volatility in
the underlying mortgage assets. These tranches tend to have market prices
and yields which are much more volatile than the PAC classes.

         Each Portfolio may also invest in stripped mortgage-backed
securities. Stripped mortgage-backed securities are often structured with
two classes that receive different proportions of the interest and
principal distributions on a pool of mortgage assets. Stripped
mortgage-backed securities have greater market volatility than other
types of U.S. Government securities in which a Portfolio invests. A
common type of stripped mortgage-backed security has one class receiving
some of the interest and all or most of the principal (the "principal
only" class) from the mortgage pool, while the other class will receive
all or most of the interest (the "interest only" class). The yield to
maturity on

                                   B-7

<PAGE>



an interest only class is extremely sensitive not only to changes in
prevailing interest rates, but also to the rate of principal payments,
including principal prepayments, on the underlying pool of mortgage
assets, and a rapid rate of principal payment may have a material adverse
effect on a Portfolio's yield. While interest-only and principal-only
securities are generally regarded as being illiquid, such securities may
be deemed to be liquid if they can be disposed of promptly in the
ordinary course of business at a value reasonably close to that used in
the calculation of a Portfolio's net asset value per share. Only
government interest only and principal only securities backed by
fixed-rate mortgages and determined to be liquid under guidelines and
standards established by the Directors may be considered liquid
securities not subject to a Portfolio's limitation on investments in
illiquid securities.

         Certain Risk Factors Relating to High-Yield Bonds. These bonds
present certain risks which are discussed below:

                  Sensitivity to Interest Rate and Economic Changes -
         High-yield bonds are very sensitive to adverse economic changes
         and corporate developments. During an economic downturn or
         substantial period of rising interest rates, highly leveraged
         issuers may experience financial stress that would adversely
         affect their ability to service their principal and interest
         payment obligations, to meet projected business goals, and to
         obtain additional financing. If the issuer of a bond defaults on
         its obligations to pay interest or principal or enters into
         bankruptcy proceedings, a Portfolio may incur losses or expenses
         in seeking recovery of amounts owed to it. In addition, periods
         of economic uncertainty and changes can be expected to result in
         increased volatility of market prices of high-yield bonds and
         the Portfolio's net asset value.

                  Payment Expectations - High-yield bonds may contain
         redemption or call provisions. If an issuer exercises these
         provisions in a declining interest rate market, a Portfolio
         would have to replace the security with a lower yielding
         security, resulting in a decreased return for investors.
         Conversely, a high-yield bond's value will decrease in a rising
         interest rate market, as will the value of the Portfolio's
         assets. If the Portfolio experiences unexpected net redemptions,
         this may force it to sell high-yield bonds without regard to
         their investment merits, thereby decreasing the asset base upon
         which expenses can be spread and possibly reducing the
         Portfolio's rate of return.

                  Liquidity and Valuation - There may be little trading
         in the secondary market for particular bonds, which may affect
         adversely a Portfolio's ability to value accurately or dispose
         of such bonds. Adverse publicity and investor perceptions,
         whether or not based on fundamental analysis, may decrease the
         values and liquidity of high-yield bonds, especially in a thin
         market.




                                   B-8

<PAGE>



         Asset-Backed Securities. Each Portfolio may invest in
asset-backed securities. These securities, issued by trusts and special
purpose corporations, are backed by a pool of assets, such as credit card
and automobile loan receivables, representing the obligations of a number
of different parties.

          Asset-backed securities present certain risks. For instance, in
the case of credit card receivables, these securities may not have the
benefit of any security interest in the related collateral. Credit card
receivables are generally unsecured and the debtors are entitled to the
protection of a number of state and federal consumer credit laws, many of
which give such debtors the right to set off certain amounts owed on the
credit cards, thereby reducing the balance due. Most issuers of
automobile receivables permit the servicer to retain possession of the
underlying obligations. If the servicer were to sell these obligations to
another party, there is a risk that the purchaser would acquire an
interest superior to that of the holders of the related automobile
receivables. In addition, because of the large number of vehicles
involved in a typical issuance and technical requirements under state
laws, the trustee for the holders of the automobile receivables may not
have a proper security interest in all of the obligations backing such
receivables. Therefore, there is the possibility that recoveries on
repossessed collateral may not, in some cases, be available to support
payments on these securities.

          Asset-backed securities are often backed by a pool of assets
representing the obligations of a number of different parties. To lessen
the effect of failures by obligors to make payments on underlying assets,
the securities may contain elements of credit support which fall into two
categories: (i) liquidity protection and (ii) protection against losses
resulting from ultimate default by an obligor on the underlying assets.
Liquidity protection refers to the provision of advances, generally by
the entity administering the pool of assets, to ensure that the receipt
of payments on the underlying pool occurs in a timely fashion. Protection
against losses resulting from ultimate default ensures payment through
insurance policies or letters of credit obtained by the issuer or sponsor
from third parties. A Portfolio will not pay any additional or separate
fees for credit support. The degree of credit support provided for each
issue is generally based on historical information respecting the level
of credit risk associated with the underlying assets. Delinquency or loss
in excess of that anticipated or failure of the credit support could
adversely affect the return on an investment in such a security.

         Loan Participations. Each Portfolio may invest in loan
participations. Loan participations are loans sold by the lending bank to
an investor. The loan participant borrower may be a company with
highly-rated commercial paper that finds it can obtain cheaper funding
through a loan participation than with commercial paper and can also
increase the company's name recognition in the capital markets. Loan
participations often generate greater yield than commercial paper.

         The borrower of the underlying loan will be deemed to be the
issuer except to the extent the Portfolio derives its rights from the
intermediary bank which sold the loan participations. Because loan
participations are undivided interests in a loan made by the issuing
bank, the Portfolio may not have the right to proceed against the loan
participations borrower without the consent of other holders of the loan
participations. In addition, loan participations will be treated as
illiquid if, in the judgment of the Adviser, they can not be sold within
seven days.

         Short-Term Debt Securities. As described in the Prospectus, in
addition to its primary investments, a Portfolio may also invest in the
following types of money market and short-term fixed-income securities:

                  Money Market Securities - Money Market securities may
         include securities issued or guaranteed by the U.S. government,
         its agencies or instrumentalities, repurchase agreements,
         commercial paper, bankers' acceptances, time deposits and
         certificates of deposit.

                  Commercial Bank Obligations - Certificates of deposit
         (interest-bearing time deposits), including Eurodollar
         certificates of deposit (certificates of deposit issued by
         domestic or foreign banks located outside the U.S.) and Yankee
         certificates of deposit (certificates of deposit issued by
         branches of foreign banks located in the U.S.), domestic and
         foreign bankers' acceptances (time drafts drawn on a commercial
         bank where the bank accepts an irrevocable obligation to pay at
         maturity) and documented discount notes (corporate promissory
         discount notes accompanied by a commercial bank guarantee to pay
         at maturity) representing direct or contingent obligations of
         commercial banks with total assets in excess of $1 billion,
         based on the latest published reports. A Portfolio may also
         invest in obligations issued by U.S. commercial banks with total
         assets of less than $1 billion if the principal amount of these
         obligations owned by the Portfolio is fully insured by the
         Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation ("FDIC"). A Portfolio may
         also invest in notes and obligations issued by foreign branches
         of U.S. and foreign commercial banks.

                  Savings Association Obligations - Certificates of
         deposit (interest-bearing time deposits) issued by mutual
         savings banks or savings and loan associations with assets in
         excess of $1 billion and whose deposits are insured by the FDIC.
         A Portfolio may also invest in obligations issued by mutual
         savings banks or savings and loan associations with total assets
         of less than $1 billion if the principal amount of these
         obligations owned by the Portfolio is fully insured by the FDIC.

                  Commercial Paper - Short-term notes (up to 12 months)
         issued by domestic and foreign corporations or governmental
         bodies. A Portfolio may only purchase commercial paper judged by
         the Adviser to be of suitable investment quality. This includes
         commercial paper that is (a) rated in the two highest categories
         by Standard & Poor's Corporation ("Standard & Poor's") and by
         Moody's Investors Service, Inc. ("Moody's"), or (b) other
         commercial paper deemed on the basis of the issuer's
         creditworthiness to be of a quality appropriate for the
         Portfolio. See "Description of Commercial Paper and Bond
         Ratings" for a description of the ratings. A Portfolio will not
         purchase commercial paper described in (b) above if such paper
         would in the aggregate exceed 15% of its total assets after such
         purchase. The commercial paper in which a Portfolio may invest
         includes variable amount master demand notes. Variable amount
         master demand notes permit a Portfolio to invest varying amounts
         at fluctuating rates of interest pursuant to the agreement in
         the master note. These

                                   B-10

<PAGE>



         are direct lending obligations between the lender and borrower,
         they are generally not traded, and there is no secondary market.
         Such instruments are payable with accrued interest in whole or
         in part on demand. The amounts of the instruments are subject to
         daily fluctuations as the participants increase or decrease the
         extent of their participation. Investments in these instruments
         are limited to those that have a demand feature enabling the
         Portfolio unconditionally to receive the amount invested from
         the issuer upon seven or fewer days' notice. In connection with
         master demand note arrangements, the Adviser, subject to the
         direction of the Directors, monitors on an ongoing basis, the
         earning power, cash flow and other liquidity ratios of the
         borrower, and its ability to pay principal and interest on
         demand. The Adviser also considers the extent to which the
         variable amount master demand notes are backed by bank letters
         of credit. These notes generally are not rated by Moody's or
         Standard & Poor's and a Portfolio may invest in them only if it
         is determined that at the time of investment the notes are of
         comparable quality to the other commercial paper in which the
         Portfolio may invest. Master demand notes are considered to have
         a maturity equal to the repayment notice period unless the
         Adviser has reason to believe that the borrower could not make
         timely repayment upon demand.

                  Corporate Bonds and Notes - A Portfolio may purchase
         corporate obligations that mature or that may be redeemed in one
         year or less. These obligations originally may have been issued
         with maturities in excess of one year. A Portfolio may invest
         only in corporate bonds or notes of issuers having outstanding
         short-term securities rated in the top two rating categories by
         Standard & Poor's and Moody's. See "Description of Commercial
         Paper and Bond Ratings" for description of investment-grade
         ratings by Standard & Poor's and Moody's.

                  Government Securities - Debt securities maturing within
         one year of the date of purchase include adjustable-rate
         mortgage securities backed by GNMA, FNMA, FHLMC and other
         non-agency issuers. Although certain floating or variable rate
         obligations (securities whose coupon rate changes at least
         annually and generally more frequently) have maturities in
         excess of one year, they are also considered short-term debt
         securities. See "U.S. Government Securities" above. A Portfolio
         may also purchase securities issued or guaranteed by a foreign
         government, its agencies or instrumentalities. See "Foreign
         Securities" above.

         Repurchase Agreements. A Portfolio may enter into repurchase
agreements with banks, brokers or securities dealers. In such agreements,
the seller agrees to repurchase the security at a mutually agreed-upon
time and price. The period of maturity is usually quite short, either
overnight or a few days, although it may extend over a number of months.
The repurchase price is in excess of the purchase price by an amount
which reflects an agreed-upon rate of return effective for the period of
time a Portfolio's money is invested in the security. Whenever a
Portfolio enters into a repurchase agreement, it obtains collateral
having a value equal to at least 102% (100% if such collateral is in the
form of cash) of the repurchase price, including accrued interest. The
instruments held as collateral are valued daily and if the value of the
instruments declines, the Portfolio will

                                   B-11

<PAGE>



require additional collateral. If the seller defaults and the value of
the collateral securing the repurchase agreements declines, the Portfolio
may incur a loss. In addition, if bankruptcy proceedings are commenced
with respect to the seller of the security, realization of the collateral
by the Portfolio may be delayed or limited. The Directors have
established guidelines to be used by the Adviser in connection with
transactions in repurchase agreements and will regularly monitor each
Portfolio's use of repurchase agreements. A Portfolio will not invest in
repurchase agreements maturing in more than seven days if the aggregate
of such investments along with other illiquid securities exceeds 15% of
the value of its net assets. However, there is no limit on the amount of
a Portfolio's net assets that may be subject to repurchase agreements
having a maturity of seven days or less for temporary defensive purposes.

         Hedging and Income Enhancement Strategies. Each Portfolio may
write (i.e., sell) call options ("calls") on securities that are traded
on U.S. and foreign securities exchanges and over-the-counter markets to
enhance income through the receipt of premiums from expired calls and any
net profits from closing purchase transactions. After writing such a
covered call, up to 25% of a Portfolio's total assets may be subject to
calls. All such calls written by a Portfolio must be "covered" while the
call is outstanding (i.e., the Portfolio must own the securities subject
to the call or other securities acceptable for applicable escrow
requirements). Calls on Futures (defined below) used to enhance income
must be covered by deliverable securities or by liquid assets segregated
to satisfy the Futures contract. If a call written by the Portfolio is
exercised, the Portfolio forgoes any profit from any increase in the
market price above the call price of the underlying investment on which
the call was written.

         Primarily for hedging purposes, and from time to time for income
enhancement, each Portfolio may use interest rate futures contracts,
foreign currency futures contracts and stock and bond index futures
contracts, including futures on U.S. government securities (together,
"Futures"); forward contracts on foreign currencies ("Forward
Contracts"); and call and put options on equity and debt securities,
Futures, stock and bond indices and foreign currencies (all the foregoing
referred to as "Hedging Instruments"). Hedging Instruments may be used to
attempt to: (i) protect against possible declines in the market value of
a Portfolio's portfolio resulting from downward trends in the equity and
debt securities markets (generally due to a rise in interest rates); (ii)
protect a Portfolio's unrealized gains in the value of its equity and
debt securities which have appreciated; (iii) facilitate selling
securities for investment reasons; (iv) establish a position in the
equity and debt securities markets as a temporary substitute for
purchasing particular equity and debt securities; or (v) reduce the risk
of adverse currency fluctuations.

         A Portfolio's strategy of hedging with Futures and options on
Futures will be incidental to its activities in the underlying cash
market. When hedging to attempt to protect against declines in the market
value of the portfolio, to permit a Portfolio to retain unrealized gains
in the value of portfolio securities which have appreciated, or to
facilitate selling securities for investment reasons, a Portfolio could:
(i) sell Futures; (ii) purchase puts on such Futures or securities; or
(iii) write calls on securities held by it or on Futures. When hedging to
attempt to protect against the possibility that portfolio securities are
not fully included in a rise in value of the debt securities market, a
Portfolio could: (i) purchase Futures, or (ii) purchase calls on such
Futures or on securities. When hedging to protect

                                   B-12

<PAGE>



against declines in the dollar value of a foreign currency-denominated
security, a Portfolio could: (i) purchase puts on that foreign currency
and on foreign currency Futures; (ii) write calls on that currency or on
such Futures; or (iii) enter into Forward Contracts at a lower rate than
the spot ("cash") rate. Additional information about the Hedging
Instruments the Portfolio may use is provided below.

Options

         Options on Securities. As noted above, each Portfolio may write
and purchase call and put options on equity and debt securities.

         When a Portfolio writes a call on a security, it receives a
premium and agrees to sell the underlying security to a purchaser of a
corresponding call on the same security during the call period (usually
not more than 9 months) at a fixed price (which may differ from the
market price of the underlying security), regardless of market price
changes during the call period. A Portfolio has retained the risk of loss
should the price of the underlying security decline during the call
period, which may be offset to some extent by the premium.

         To terminate its obligation on a call it has written, a
Portfolio may purchase a corresponding call in a "closing purchase
transaction." A profit or loss will be realized, depending upon whether
the net of the amount of the option transaction costs and the premium
received on the call written was more or less than the price of the call
subsequently purchased. A profit may also be realized if the call expires
unexercised, because a Portfolio retains the underlying security and the
premium received. If a Portfolio could not effect a closing purchase
transaction due to lack of a market, it would hold the callable
securities until the call expired or was exercised.

         When a Portfolio purchases a call (other than in a closing
purchase transaction), it pays a premium and has the right to buy the
underlying investment from a seller of a corresponding call on the same
investment during the call period at a fixed exercise price. A Portfolio
benefits only if the call is sold at a profit or if, during the call
period, the market price of the underlying investment is above the sum of
the call price plus the transaction costs and the premium paid and the
call is exercised. If the call is not exercised or sold (whether or not
at a profit), it will become worthless at its expiration date and a
Portfolio will lose its premium payment and the right to purchase the
underlying investment.

         A put option on securities gives the purchaser the right to
sell, and the writer the obligation to buy, the underlying investment at
the exercise price during the option period. Writing a put covered by
segregated liquid assets equal to the exercise price of the put has the
same economic effect to a Portfolio as writing a covered call. The
premium a Portfolio receives from writing a put option represents a
profit as long as the price of the underlying investment remains above
the exercise price. However, a Portfolio has also assumed the obligation
during the option period to buy the underlying investment from the buyer
of the put at the exercise price, even though the value of the investment
may fall below the exercise price. If the put expires unexercised, a
Portfolio (as the writer of the put) realizes a gain in the amount of the
premium. If the put is exercised, a Portfolio must

                                   B-13

<PAGE>



fulfill its obligation to purchase the underlying investment at the
exercise price, which will usually exceed the market value of the
investment at that time. In that case, a Portfolio may incur a loss,
equal to the sum of the sale price of the underlying investment and the
premium received minus the sum of the exercise price and any transaction
costs incurred.

         A Portfolio may effect a closing purchase transaction to realize
a profit on an outstanding put option it has written or to prevent an
underlying security from being put. Furthermore, effecting such a closing
purchase transaction will permit a Portfolio to write another put option
to the extent that the exercise price thereof is secured by the deposited
assets, or to utilize the proceeds from the sale of such assets for other
investments by the Portfolio. A Portfolio will realize a profit or loss
from a closing purchase transaction if the cost of the transaction is
less or more than the premium received from writing the option.

         When a Portfolio purchases a put, it pays a premium and has the
right to sell the underlying investment to a seller of a corresponding
put on the same investment during the put period at a fixed exercise
price. Buying a put on an investment a Portfolio owns enables the
Portfolio to protect itself during the put period against a decline in
the value of the underlying investment below the exercise price by
selling such underlying investment at the exercise price to a seller of a
corresponding put. If the market price of the underlying investment is
equal to or above the exercise price and as a result the put is not
exercised or resold, the put will become worthless at its expiration
date, and the Portfolio will lose its premium payment and the right to
sell the underlying investment pursuant to the put. The put may, however,
be sold prior to expiration (whether or not at a profit).

         Buying a put on an investment a Portfolio does not own permits
the Portfolio either to resell the put or buy the underlying investment
and sell it at the exercise price. The resale price of the put will vary
inversely with the price of the underlying investment. If the market
price of the underlying investment is above the exercise price and as a
result the put is not exercised, the put will become worthless on its
expiration date. In the event of a decline in the stock market, a
Portfolio could exercise or sell the put at a profit to attempt to offset
some or all of its loss on its portfolio securities.

         When writing put options on securities, to secure its obligation
to pay for the underlying security, a Portfolio will deposit in escrow
liquid assets with a value equal to or greater than the exercise price of
the underlying securities. A Portfolio therefore forgoes the opportunity
of investing the segregated assets or writing calls against those assets.
As long as the obligation of a Portfolio as the put writer continues, it
may be assigned an exercise notice by the broker-dealer through whom such
option was sold, requiring a Portfolio to take delivery of the underlying
security against payment of the exercise price. A Portfolio has no
control over when it may be required to purchase the underlying security,
since it may be assigned an exercise notice at any time prior to the
termination of its obligation as the writer of the put. This obligation
terminates upon expiration of the put, or such earlier time at which a
Portfolio effects a closing purchase transaction by purchasing a put of
the same series as that previously sold. Once a Portfolio has been
assigned an exercise notice, it is thereafter not allowed to effect a
closing purchase transaction.



                                   B-14

<PAGE>



         Options on Foreign Currencies. Each Portfolio may write and
purchase puts and calls on foreign currencies. A call written on a
foreign currency by a Portfolio is "covered" if the Portfolio owns the
underlying foreign currency covered by the call or has an absolute and
immediate right to acquire that foreign currency without additional cash
consideration (or for additional cash consideration held in a segregated
account by the Portfolio) upon conversion or exchange of other foreign
currency held in its portfolio. A put option is "covered" if the
Portfolio segregates cash or liquid securities with a value at least
equal to the exercise price of the put option. A call written by a
Portfolio on a foreign currency is for cross-hedging purposes if it is
not covered, but is designed to provide a hedge against a decline in the
U.S. dollar value of a security which the Portfolio owns or has the right
to acquire and which is denominated in the currency underlying the option
due to an adverse change in the exchange rate. In such circumstances, a
Portfolio collateralizes the option by segregating cash or liquid
securities in an amount not less than the value of the underlying foreign
currency in U.S. dollars marked-to-market daily.

         Options on Securities Indices. As noted above, each Portfolio
may write and purchase call and put options on securities indices. Puts
and calls on broadly-based securities indices are similar to puts and
calls on securities except that all settlements are in cash and gain or
loss depends on changes in the index in question (and thus on price
movements in the securities market generally) rather than on price
movements in individual securities or Futures. When a Portfolio buys a
call on a securities index, it pays a premium. During the call period,
upon exercise of a call by a Portfolio, a seller of a corresponding call
on the same investment will pay the Portfolio an amount of cash to settle
the call if the closing level of the securities index upon which the call
is based is greater than the exercise price of the call. That cash
payment is equal to the difference between the closing price of the index
and the exercise price of the call times a specified multiple (the
"multiplier") which determines the total dollar value for each point of
difference. When a Portfolio buys a put on a securities index, it pays a
premium and has the right during the put period to require a seller of a
corresponding put, upon the Portfolio's exercise of its put, to deliver
to the Portfolio an amount of cash to settle the put if the closing level
of the securities index upon which the put is based is less than the
exercise price of the put. That cash payment is determined by the
multiplier, in the same manner as described above as to calls.

Futures and Options on Futures

         Futures. Upon entering into a Futures transaction, a Portfolio
will be required to deposit an initial margin payment with the futures
commission merchant (the "futures broker"). The initial margin will be
deposited with the Fund's custodian in an account registered in the
futures broker's name; however the futures broker can gain access to that
account only under specified conditions. As the Future is
marked-to-market to reflect changes in its market value, subsequent
margin payments, called variation margin, will be paid to or by the
futures broker on a daily basis. Prior to expiration of the Future, if a
Portfolio elects to close out its position by taking an opposite
position, a final determination of variation margin is made, additional
cash is required to be paid by or released to the Portfolio, and any loss
or gain is realized for tax purposes. All Futures transactions are
effected through a clearinghouse associated with the exchange on which
the Futures are traded.


                                   B-15

<PAGE>



         Interest rate futures contracts are purchased or sold for
hedging purposes to attempt to protect against the effects of interest
rate changes on a Portfolio's current or intended investments in
fixed-income securities. For example, if a Portfolio owned long-term
bonds and interest rates were expected to increase, that Portfolio might
sell interest rate futures contracts. Such a sale would have much the
same effect as selling some of the long-term bonds in that Portfolio's
portfolio. However, since the Futures market is more liquid than the cash
market, the use of interest rate futures contracts as a hedging technique
allows a Portfolio to hedge its interest rate risk without having to sell
its portfolio securities. If interest rates did increase, the value of
the debt securities in the portfolio would decline, but the value of that
Portfolio's interest rate futures contracts would be expected to increase
at approximately the same rate, thereby keeping the net asset value of
that Portfolio from declining as much as it otherwise would have. On the
other hand, if interest rates were expected to decline, interest rate
futures contracts may be purchased to hedge in anticipation of subsequent
purchases of long-term bonds at higher prices. Since the fluctuations in
the value of the interest rate futures contracts should be similar to
that of long-term bonds, a Portfolio could protect itself against the
effects of the anticipated rise in the value of long-term bonds without
actually buying them until the necessary cash became available or the
market had stabilized. At that time, the interest rate futures contracts
could be liquidated and that Portfolio's cash reserves could then be used
to buy long-term bonds on the cash market.

         Purchases or sales of stock or bond index futures contracts are
used for hedging purposes to attempt to protect a Portfolio's current or
intended investments from broad fluctuations in stock or bond prices. For
example, a Portfolio may sell stock or bond index futures contracts in
anticipation of or during a market decline to attempt to offset the
decrease in market value of the Portfolio's securities portfolio that
might otherwise result. If such decline occurs, the loss in value of
portfolio securities may be offset, in whole or part, by gains on the
Futures position. When a Portfolio is not fully invested in the
securities market and anticipates a significant market advance, it may
purchase stock or bond index futures contracts in order to gain rapid
market exposure that may, in part or entirely, offset increases in the
cost of securities that the Portfolio intends to purchase. As such
purchases are made, the corresponding positions in stock or bond index
futures contracts will be closed out.

         As noted above, each Portfolio may purchase and sell foreign
currency futures contracts for hedging or income enhancement purposes to
attempt to protect its current or intended investments from fluctuations
in currency exchange rates. Such fluctuations could reduce the dollar
value of portfolio securities denominated in foreign currencies, or
increase the cost of foreign-denominated securities to be acquired, even
if the value of such securities in the currencies in which they are
denominated remains constant. Each Portfolio may sell futures contracts
on a foreign currency, for example, when it holds securities denominated
in such currency and it anticipates a decline in the value of such
currency relative to the dollar. In the event such decline occurs, the
resulting adverse effect on the value of foreign-denominated securities
may be offset, in whole or in part, by gains on the Futures contracts.
However, if the value of the foreign currency increases relative to the
dollar, the Portfolio's loss on the foreign currency futures contract may
or may not be offset by an increase in the value of the securities since
a decline in the price of the security stated in terms of the foreign
currency may be greater than the increase in value as a result of the
change in exchange rates.

                                   B-16

<PAGE>



         Conversely, each Portfolio could protect against a rise in the
dollar cost of foreign-denominated securities to be acquired by
purchasing Futures contracts on the relevant currency, which could
offset, in whole or in part, the increased cost of such securities
resulting from a rise in the dollar value of the underlying currencies.
When a Portfolio purchases futures contracts under such circumstances,
however, and the price of securities to be acquired instead declines as a
result of appreciation of the dollar, the Portfolio will sustain losses
on its futures position which could reduce or eliminate the benefits of
the reduced cost of portfolio securities to be acquired.

         Options on Futures. As noted above, the Portfolio may purchase
and write options on interest rate futures contracts, stock and bond
index futures contracts, forward contracts and foreign currency futures
contracts. (Unless otherwise specified, options on interest rate futures
contracts, options on stock and bond index futures contracts and options
on foreign currency futures contracts are collectively referred to as
"Options on Futures.")

         The writing of a call option on a Futures contract constitutes a
partial hedge against declining prices of the securities in the
portfolio. If the Futures price at expiration of the option is below the
exercise price, the Portfolio will retain the full amount of the option
premium, which provides a partial hedge against any decline that may have
occurred in the portfolio holdings. The writing of a put option on a
Futures contract constitutes a partial hedge against increasing prices of
the securities or other instruments required to be delivered under the
terms of the Futures contract. If the Futures price at expiration of the
put option is higher than the exercise price, a Portfolio will retain the
full amount of the option premium which provides a partial hedge against
any increase in the price of securities which the Portfolio intends to
purchase. If a put or call option a Portfolio has written is exercised,
the Portfolio will incur a loss which will be reduced by the amount of
the premium it receives. Depending on the degree of correlation between
changes in the value of its portfolio securities and changes in the value
of its Options on Futures positions, a Portfolio's losses from exercised
Options on Futures may to some extent be reduced or increased by changes
in the value of portfolio securities.

         A Portfolio may purchase Options on Futures for hedging
purposes, instead of purchasing or selling the underlying Futures
contract. For example, where a decrease in the value of portfolio
securities is anticipated as a result of a projected market-wide decline
or changes in interest or exchange rates, a Portfolio could, in lieu of
selling a Futures contract, purchase put options thereon. In the event
that such decrease occurs, it may be offset, in whole or part, by a
profit on the option. If the market decline does not occur, the Portfolio
will suffer a loss equal to the price of the put. Where it is projected
that the value of securities to be acquired by a Portfolio will increase
prior to acquisition, due to a market advance or changes in interest or
exchange rates, a Portfolio could purchase call Options on Futures,
rather than purchasing the underlying Futures contract. If the market
advances, the increased cost of securities to be purchased may be offset
by a profit on the call. However, if the market declines, the Portfolio
will suffer a loss equal to the price of the call but the securities
which the Portfolio intends to purchase may be less expensive.

Forward Contracts

         A Forward Contract involves bilateral obligations of one party
to purchase, and another party to sell, a specific currency at a future
date (which may be any fixed number of days from the date of the contract
agreed upon by the parties), at a price set at the time the contract is
entered into. These contracts are traded in the interbank market
conducted directly between currency traders (usually large commercial
banks) and their customers. No price is paid or received upon the
purchase or sale of a Forward Contract.

         A Portfolio may use Forward Contracts to protect against
uncertainty in the level of future exchange rates. The use of Forward
Contracts does not eliminate fluctuations in the prices of the underlying
securities a Portfolio owns or intends to acquire, but it does fix a rate
of exchange in advance. In addition, although Forward Contracts limit the
risk of loss due to a decline in the value of the hedged currencies, at
the same time they limit any potential gain that might result should the
value of the currencies increase.

         A Portfolio may enter into Forward Contracts with respect to
specific transactions. For example, when a Portfolio enters into a
contract for the purchase or sale of a security denominated in a foreign
currency, or when a Portfolio anticipates receipt of dividend payments in
a foreign currency, the Portfolio may desire to "lock-in" the U.S. dollar
price of the security or the U.S. dollar equivalent of such payment by
entering into a Forward Contract, for a fixed amount of U.S. dollars per
unit of foreign currency, for the purchase or sale of the amount of
foreign currency involved in the underlying transaction. A Portfolio will
thereby be able to protect itself against a possible loss resulting from
an adverse change in the relationship between the currency exchange rates
during the period between the date on which the security is purchased or
sold, or on which the payment is declared, and the date on which such
payments are made or received.

         A Portfolio may also use Forward Contracts to lock in the U.S.
dollar value of portfolio positions ("position hedge"). In a position
hedge, for example, when a Portfolio believes that foreign currency may
suffer a substantial decline against the U.S. dollar, it may enter into a
Forward Contract to sell an amount of that foreign currency approximating
the value of some or all of the portfolio securities denominated in such
foreign currency, or when a Portfolio believes that the U.S. dollar may
suffer a substantial decline against a foreign currency, it may enter
into a Forward Contract to buy that foreign currency for a fixed dollar
amount. In this situation a Portfolio may, in the alternative, enter into
a Forward Contract to sell a different foreign currency for a fixed U.S.
dollar amount where the Portfolio believes that the U.S. dollar value of
the currency to be sold pursuant to the forward contract will fall
whenever there is a decline in the U.S. dollar value of the currency in
which portfolio securities of the Portfolio are denominated
("cross-hedged"). A Portfolio may also hedge investments denominated in a
foreign currency by entering into forward currency contracts with respect
to a foreign currency that is expected to correlate to the currency in
which the investments are denominated ("proxy hedging").



                                   B-18

<PAGE>



         The Portfolio will cover outstanding forward currency contracts
by maintaining liquid portfolio securities denominated in the currency
underlying the forward contract or the currency being hedged. To the
extent that a Portfolio is not able to cover its forward currency
positions with underlying portfolio securities, the Portfolio will
segregate cash or liquid securities having a value equal to the aggregate
amount of the Portfolio's commitments under Forward Contracts entered
into with respect to position hedges and cross-hedges. If the value of
the segregated securities declines, additional cash or securities will be
segregated on a daily basis so that the value of the segregated assets
will equal the amount of the Portfolio's commitments with respect to such
contracts. As an alternative to segregating assets, a Portfolio may
purchase a call option permitting the Portfolio to purchase the amount of
foreign currency being hedged by a forward sale contract at a price no
higher than the Forward Contract price or the Portfolio may purchase a
put option permitting the Portfolio to sell the amount of foreign
currency subject to a forward purchase contract at a price as high or
higher than the Forward Contract price. Unanticipated changes in currency
prices may result in poorer overall performance for a Portfolio than if
it had not entered into such contracts.

         The precise matching of the Forward Contract amounts and the
value of the securities involved will not generally be possible because
the future value of such securities in foreign currencies will change as
a consequence of market movements in the value of these securities
between the date the Forward Contract is entered into and the date it is
sold. Accordingly, it may be necessary for a Portfolio to purchase
additional foreign currency on the spot (i.e., cash) market (and bear the
expense of such purchase), if the market value of the security is less
than the amount of foreign currency a Portfolio is obligated to deliver
and if a decision is made to sell the security and make delivery of the
foreign currency. Conversely, it may be necessary to sell on the spot
market some of the foreign currency received upon the sale of the
portfolio security if its market value exceeds the amount of foreign
currency a Portfolio is obligated to deliver. The projection of
short-term currency market movements is extremely difficult, and the
successful execution of a short-term hedging strategy is highly
uncertain. Forward Contracts involve the risk that anticipated currency
movements will not be accurately predicted, causing a Portfolio to
sustain losses on these contracts and transactions costs.

         At or before the maturity of a Forward Contract requiring a
Portfolio to sell a currency, the Portfolio may either sell a portfolio
security and use the sale proceeds to make delivery of the currency or
retain the security and offset its contractual obligation to deliver the
currency by purchasing a second contract pursuant to which the Portfolio
will obtain, on the same maturity date, the same amount of the currency
that it is obligated to deliver. Similarly, a Portfolio may close out a
Forward Contract requiring it to purchase a specified currency by
entering into a second contract entitling it to sell the same amount of
the same currency on the maturity date of the first contract. A Portfolio
would realize a gain or loss as a result of entering into such an
offsetting Forward Contract under either circumstance to the extent the
exchange rate or rates between the currencies involved moved between the
execution dates of the first contract and offsetting contract.





                                   B-19

<PAGE>



         The cost to a Portfolio of engaging in Forward Contracts varies
with factors such as the currencies involved, the length of the contract
period and the market conditions then prevailing. Because Forward
Contracts are usually entered into on a principal basis, no fees or
commissions are involved. Because such contracts are not traded on an
exchange, a Portfolio must evaluate the credit and performance risk of
each particular counterparty under a Forward Contract.

         Although a Portfolio values its assets daily in terms of U.S.
dollars, it does not intend to convert its holdings of foreign currencies
into U.S. dollars on a daily basis. A Portfolio may convert foreign
currency from time to time, and investors should be aware of the costs of
currency conversion. Foreign exchange dealers do not charge a fee for
conversion, but they do seek to realize a profit based on the difference
between the prices at which they buy and sell various currencies. Thus, a
dealer may offer to sell a foreign currency to a Portfolio at one rate,
while offering a lesser rate of exchange should the Portfolio desire to
resell that currency to the dealer.

Additional Information About Hedging Instruments and Their Use

         The Fund's custodian, or a securities depository acting for the
custodian, will act as the Portfolios' escrow agent, through the
facilities of the Options Clearing Corporation ("OCC"), as to the
securities on which the Portfolio has written options or as to other
acceptable escrow securities, so that no margin will be required for such
transaction. OCC will release the securities on the expiration of the
option or upon a Portfolio's entering into a closing transaction.

         An option position may be closed out only on a market which
provides secondary trading for options of the same series and there is no
assurance that a liquid secondary market will exist for any particular
option. A Portfolio's option activities may affect its turnover rate and
brokerage commissions. The exercise by a Portfolio of puts on securities
will cause the sale of related investments, increasing portfolio
turnover. Although such exercise is within a Portfolio's control, holding
a put might cause the Portfolio to sell the related investments for
reasons which would not exist in the absence of the put. A Portfolio will
pay a brokerage commission each time it buys a put or call, sells a call,
or buys or sells an underlying investment in connection with the exercise
of a put or call. Such commissions may be higher than those which would
apply to direct purchases or sales of such underlying investments.
Premiums paid for options are small in relation to the market value of
the related investments, and consequently, put and call options offer
large amounts of leverage. The leverage offered by trading in options
could result in a Portfolio's net asset value being more sensitive to
changes in the value of the underlying investments.

         In the future, each Portfolio may employ Hedging Instruments and
strategies that are not presently contemplated but which may be
developed, to the extent such investment methods are consistent with a
Portfolio's investment objectives, legally permissible and adequately
disclosed.

Regulatory Aspects of Hedging Instruments

         Each Portfolio must operate within certain restrictions as to
its long and short positions in Futures and options thereon under a rule
(the "CFTC Rule") adopted by the Commodity Futures Trading Commission
(the "CFTC") under the Commodity Exchange Act (the "CEA"), which excludes
the Portfolio from registration with the CFTC as a "commodity pool
operator" (as defined in the CEA) if it complies with the CFTC Rule. In
particular, the Portfolio may (i) purchase and sell Futures and options
thereon for bona fide hedging purposes, as defined under CFTC
regulations, without regard to the percentage of the Portfolio's assets
committed to margin and option premiums, and (ii) enter into non-hedging
transactions, provided that the Portfolio may not enter into such
non-hedging transactions if, immediately thereafter, the sum of the
amount of initial margin deposits on the Portfolio's existing Futures
positions and option premiums would exceed 5% of the fair value of its
portfolio, after taking into account unrealized profits and unrealized
losses on any such transactions. Margin deposits may consist of cash or
securities acceptable to the broker and the relevant contract market.

         Transactions in options by a Portfolio are subject to
limitations established by each of the exchanges governing the maximum
number of options which may be written or held by a single investor or
group of investors acting in concert, regardless of whether the options
were written or purchased on the same or different exchanges or are held
in one or more accounts or through one or more exchanges or brokers.
Thus, the number of options which a Portfolio may write or hold may be
affected by options written or held by other entities, including other
investment companies having the same or an affiliated investment adviser.
Position limits also apply to Futures. An exchange may order the
liquidation of positions found to be in violation of those limits and may
impose certain other sanctions. Due to requirements under the 1940 Act,
when a Portfolio purchases a Future, the Portfolio will segregate cash or
liquid securities in an amount equal to the market value of the
securities underlying such Future, less the margin deposit applicable to
it.

Possible Risk Factors in Hedging

         In addition to the risks discussed in the Prospectus and above,
there is a risk in using short hedging by selling Futures to attempt to
protect against decline in value of the portfolio securities (due to an
increase in interest rates) that the prices of such Futures will
correlate imperfectly with the behavior of the cash (i.e., market value)
prices of the Portfolio's securities. The ordinary spreads between prices
in the cash and Futures markets are subject to distortions due to
differences in the natures of those markets. First, all participants in
the Futures markets are subject to margin deposit and maintenance
requirements. Rather than meeting additional margin deposit requirements,
investors may close Futures contracts through offsetting transactions
which could distort the normal relationship between the cash and Futures
markets. Second, the liquidity of the Futures markets depends on
participants entering into offsetting transactions rather than making or
taking delivery. To the extent participants decide to make or take
delivery, liquidity in the Futures markets could be reduced, thus
producing distortion. Third, from the point-of-view of speculators, the
deposit requirements in the Futures markets are less onerous than margin
requirements in the securities

                                   B-21

<PAGE>



markets. Therefore, increased participation by speculators in the Futures
markets may cause temporary price distortions.

         If a Portfolio uses Hedging Instruments to establish a position
in the debt securities markets as a temporary substitute for the purchase
of individual debt securities (long hedging) by buying Futures and/or
calls on such Futures or on debt securities, it is possible that the
market may decline; if the Adviser then determines not to invest in such
securities at that time because of concerns as to possible further market
decline or for other reasons, the Portfolio will realize a loss on the
Hedging Instruments that is not offset by a reduction in the price of the
debt securities purchased.

         Illiquid and Restricted Securities. No more than 15% of the
value of a Portfolio's net assets, determined as of the date of purchase,
may be invested in illiquid securities including repurchase agreements
which have a maturity of longer than seven days, interest-rate swaps,
currency swaps, caps, floors and collars, or in other securities that are
illiquid by virtue of the absence of a readily available market or legal
or contractual restrictions on resale. Historically, illiquid securities
have included securities subject to contractual or legal restrictions on
resale because they have not been registered under the Securities Act of
1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), securities which are otherwise
not readily marketable and repurchase agreements having a maturity of
longer than seven days. Repurchase agreements subject to demand are
deemed to have a maturity equal to the notice period. Securities which
have not been registered under the Securities Act are referred to as
private placements or restricted securities and are purchased directly
from the issuer or in the secondary market. Mutual funds do not typically
hold a significant amount of these restricted or other illiquid
securities because of the potential for delays on resale and uncertainty
in valuation. Limitations on resale may have an adverse effect on the
marketability of portfolio securities and a mutual fund might be unable
to dispose of restricted or other illiquid securities promptly or at
reasonable prices and might thereby experience difficulty satisfying
redemptions within seven days. A mutual fund might also have to register
such restricted securities in order to dispose of them, resulting in
additional expense and delay. There will generally be a lapse of time
between a mutual fund's decision to sell an unregistered security and the
registration of such security promoting sale. Adverse market conditions
could impede a public offering of such securities. When purchasing
unregistered securities, each of the Portfolios will seek to obtain the
right of registration at the expense of the issuer (except in the case of
Rule 144A securities).

         In recent years, a large institutional market has developed for
certain securities that are not registered under the Securities Act,
including repurchase agreements, commercial paper, foreign securities,
municipal securities and corporate bonds and notes. Institutional
investors depend on an efficient institutional market in which the
unregistered security can be readily resold or on an issuer's ability to
honor a demand for repayment. The fact that there are contractual or
legal restrictions on resale to the general public or to certain
institutions may not be indicative of the liquidity of such investments.




                                   B-22

<PAGE>



         Restricted securities eligible for resale pursuant to Rule 144A
under the Securities Act for which there is a readily available market
may be deemed to be liquid. The Adviser will monitor the liquidity of
such restricted securities subject to the supervision of the Directors.
In reaching liquidity decisions the Adviser will consider, inter alia,
pursuant to guidelines and procedures established by the Directors, the
following factors: (1) the frequency of trades and quotes for the
security; (2) the number of dealers wishing to purchase or sell the
security and the number of other potential purchasers; (3) dealer
undertakings to make a market in the security; and (4) the nature of the
security and the nature of the marketplace trades (e.g., the time needed
to dispose of the security, the method of soliciting offers and the
mechanics of the transfer).

         Commercial paper issues in which a Portfolio's net assets may be
invested include securities issued by major corporations without
registration under the Securities Act in reliance on the exemption from
such registration afforded by Section 3(a)(3) thereof, and commercial
paper issued in reliance on the so-called private placement exemption
from registration which is afforded by Section 4(2) of the Securities Act
("Section 4(2) paper"). Section 4(2) paper is restricted as to
disposition under the federal securities laws in that any resale must
similarly be made in an exempt transaction. Section 4(2) paper is
normally resold to other institutional investors through or with the
assistance of investment dealers who make a market in Section 4(2) paper,
thus providing liquidity. Section 4(2) paper that is issued by a company
that files reports under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is generally
eligible to be sold in reliance on the safe harbor of Rule 144A described
above. A Portfolio's 15% limitation on investments in illiquid securities
includes Section 4(2) paper other than Section 4(2) paper that the
Adviser has determined to be liquid pursuant to guidelines established by
the Directors. The Directors have delegated to the Advisers the function
of making day-to-day determinations of liquidity with respect to Section
4(2) paper, pursuant to guidelines approved by the Directors that require
the Advisers to take into account the same factors described above for
other restricted securities and require the Advisers to perform the same
monitoring and reporting functions.

         Hybrid Instruments; Indexed/Structured Securities. Hybrid
Instruments, including indexed or structured securities, have been
developed and combine the elements of futures contracts or options with
those of debt, preferred equity or a depository instrument. Generally, a
Hybrid Instrument will be a debt security, preferred stock, depository
share, trust certificate, certificate of deposit or other evidence of
indebtedness on which a portion of or all interest payments, and/or the
principal or stated amount payable at maturity, redemption or retirement,
is determined by reference to prices, changes in prices, or differences
between prices, of securities, currencies, intangibles, goods, articles
or commodities (collectively "Underlying Assets") or by another objective
index, economic factor or other measure, such as interest rates, currency
exchange rates, commodity indices, and securities indices (collectively
"Benchmarks"). Thus, Hybrid Instruments may take a variety of forms,
including, but not limited to, debt instruments with interest or
principal payments or redemption terms determined by reference to the
value of a currency or commodity or securities index at a future point in
time, preferred stock with dividend rates determined by reference to the
value of a currency, or convertible securities with the conversion terms
related to a particular commodity.



                                   B-23

<PAGE>



         Hybrid Instruments can be an efficient means of creating
exposure to a particular market, or segment of a market, with the
objective of enhancing total return. For example, a Portfolio may wish to
take advantage of expected declines in interest rates in several European
countries, but avoid the transactions costs associated with buying and
currency-hedging the foreign bond positions. One solution would be to
purchase a U.S. dollar-denominated Hybrid Instrument whose redemption
price is linked to the average three year interest rate in a designated
group of countries. The redemption price formula would provide for
payoffs of greater than par if the average interest rate was lower than a
specified level, and payoffs of less than par if rates were above the
specified level. Furthermore, the Portfolio could limit the downside risk
of the security by establishing a minimum redemption price so that the
principal paid at maturity could not be below a predetermined minimum
level if interest rates were to rise significantly. The purpose of this
arrangement, known as a structured security with an embedded put option,
would be to give the Portfolio the desired European bond exposure while
avoiding currency risk, limiting downside market risk, and lowering
transactions costs. Of course, there is no guarantee that the strategy
will be successful and the Portfolio could lose money if, for example,
interest rates do not move as anticipated or credit problems develop with
the issuer of the Hybrid.

         The risks of investing in Hybrid Instruments reflect a
combination of the risks of investing in securities, options, futures and
currencies. Thus, an investment in a Hybrid Instrument may entail
significant risks that are not associated with a similar investment in a
traditional debt instrument that has a fixed principal amount, is
denominated in U.S. dollars or bears interest either at a fixed rate or a
floating rate determined by reference to a common, nationally published
Benchmark. The risks of a particular Hybrid Instrument will, of course,
depend upon the terms of the instrument, but may include, without
limitation, the possibility of significant changes in the Benchmarks or
the prices of Underlying Assets to which the instrument is linked. Such
risks generally depend upon factors which are unrelated to the operations
or credit quality of the issuer of the Hybrid Instrument and which may
not be readily foreseen by the purchaser, such as economic and political
events, the supply and demand for the Underlying Assets and interest rate
movements. In recent years, various Benchmarks and prices for Underlying
Assets have been highly volatile, and such volatility may be expected in
the future. Reference is also made to the discussion of futures, options,
and forward contracts herein for a discussion of the risks associated
with such investments.

         Hybrid Instruments are potentially more volatile and carry
greater market risks than traditional debt instruments. Depending on the
structure of the particular Hybrid Instrument, changes in a Benchmark may
be magnified by the terms of the Hybrid Instrument and have an even more
dramatic and substantial effect upon the value of the Hybrid Instrument.
Also, the prices of the Hybrid Instrument and the Benchmark or Underlying
Asset may not move in the same direction or at the same time.

         Hybrid Instruments may bear interest or pay preferred dividends
at below market (or even relatively nominal) rates. Alternatively, Hybrid
Instruments may bear interest at above market rates but bear an increased
risk of principal loss (or gain). The latter scenario may result if
"leverage" is used to structure the Hybrid Instrument. Leverage risk
occurs when the Hybrid Instrument is

                                   B-24

<PAGE>



structured so that a given change in a Benchmark or Underlying Asset is
multiplied to produce a greater value change in the Hybrid Instrument,
thereby magnifying the risk of loss as well as the potential for gain.

         Hybrid Instruments may also carry liquidity risk since the
instruments are often "customized" to meet the portfolio needs of a
particular investor, and therefore, the number of investors that are
willing and able to buy such instruments in the secondary market may be
smaller than that for more traditional debt securities. In addition,
because the purchase and sale of Hybrid Instruments could take place in
an over-the-counter market without the guarantee of a central clearing
organization or in a transaction between the Portfolio and the issuer of
the Hybrid Instrument, the creditworthiness of the counter party or
issuer of the Hybrid Instrument would be an additional risk factor which
the Portfolio would have to consider and monitor. Hybrid Instruments also
may not be subject to regulation of the CFTC, which generally regulates
the trading of commodity futures by U.S. persons, the Securities and
Exchange Commission (the "SEC"), which regulates the offer and sale of
securities by and to U.S. persons, or any other governmental regulatory
authority.

         The various risks discussed above, particularly the market risk
of such instruments, may in turn cause significant fluctuations in the
net asset value of the Portfolio. Accordingly, each Portfolio will limit
its investments in Hybrid Instruments to 10% of total assets at the time
of purchase. However, because of their volatility, it is possible that a
Portfolio's investment in Hybrid Instruments will account for more than
10% of the Portfolio's return (positive or negative).

         When-Issued Securities and Firm Commitment Agreement. A
Portfolio may purchase or sell securities on a "when-issued" or "delayed
delivery" basis and may purchase securities on a firm commitment basis.
Although a Portfolio will enter into such transactions for the purpose of
acquiring securities for its portfolio or for delivery pursuant to
options contracts it has entered into, the Portfolio may dispose of a
commitment prior to settlement. "When-issued" or "delayed delivery"
refers to securities whose terms and indenture are available and for
which a market exists, but which are not available for immediate
delivery. When such transactions are negotiated, the price (which is
generally expressed in yield terms) is fixed at the time the commitment
is made, but delivery and payment for the securities take place at a
later date. During the period between commitment by a Portfolio and
settlement (generally within two months but not to exceed 120 days), no
payment is made for the securities purchased by the purchaser, and no
interest accrues to the purchaser from the transaction. Such securities
are subject to market fluctuation, and the value at delivery may be less
than the purchase price. A Portfolio will maintain a segregated account
with its Custodian, consisting of cash or liquid securities at least
equal to the value of purchase commitments until payment is made. A
Portfolio will likewise segregate liquid assets in respect of securities
sold on a delayed delivery basis.

         A Portfolio will engage in when-issued transactions in order to
secure what is considered to be an advantageous price and yield at the
time of entering into the obligation. When a Portfolio engages in
when-issued or delayed delivery transactions, it relies on the buyer or
seller, as the case may be, to consummate the transaction. Failure to do
so may result in a Portfolio losing the

                                   B-25

<PAGE>



opportunity to obtain a price and yield considered to be advantageous. If
a Portfolio chooses to (i) dispose of the right to acquire a when-issued
security prior to its acquisition or (ii) dispose of its right to deliver
or receive against a firm commitment, it may incur a gain or loss. (At
the time a Portfolio makes a commitment to purchase or sell a security on
a when-issued or firm commitment basis, it records the transaction and
reflects the value of the security purchased, or if a sale, the proceeds
to be received in determining its net asset value.)

         To the extent a Portfolio engages in when-issued and delayed
delivery transactions, it will do so for the purpose of acquiring or
selling securities consistent with its investment objectives and policies
and not for the purposes of investment leverage. A Portfolio enters into
such transactions only with the intention of actually receiving or
delivering the securities, although (as noted above) when-issued
securities and firm commitments may be sold prior to the settlement date.
In addition, changes in interest rates in a direction other than that
expected by the Adviser before settlement of a purchase will affect the
value of such securities and may cause a loss to a Portfolio.

         When-issued transactions and firm commitments may be used to
offset anticipated changes in interest rates and prices. For instance, in
periods of rising interest rates and falling prices, a Portfolio might
sell securities in its portfolio on a forward commitment basis to attempt
to limit its exposure to anticipated falling prices. In periods of
falling interest rates and rising prices, a Portfolio might sell
portfolio securities and purchase the same or similar securities on a
when-issued or forward commitment basis, thereby obtaining the benefit of
currently higher cash yields.

         Loans of Portfolio Securities. Consistent with applicable
regulatory requirements, each Portfolio may lend portfolio securities in
amounts up to 331/3% of total assets to brokers, dealers and other
financial institutions, provided, that such loans are callable at any
time by the Portfolio and are at all times secured by cash or equivalent
collateral. In lending its portfolio securities, a Portfolio receives
income while retaining the securities' potential for capital
appreciation. The advantage of such loans is that a Portfolio continues
to receive the interest and dividends on the loaned securities while at
the same time earning interest on the collateral, which will be invested
in short-term obligations. A loan may be terminated by the borrower on
one business day's notice or by a Portfolio at any time. If the borrower
fails to maintain the requisite amount of collateral, the loan
automatically terminates, and the Portfolio could use the collateral to
replace the securities while holding the borrower liable for any excess
of replacement cost over collateral. As with any extensions of credit,
there are risks of delay in recovery and in some cases even loss of
rights in the collateral should the borrower of the securities fail
financially. However, these loans of portfolio securities will only be
made to firms deemed by the Adviser to be creditworthy. On termination of
the loan, the borrower is required to return the securities to a
Portfolio; and any gain or loss in the market price of the loaned
security during the loan would inure to the Portfolio. Each Portfolio
will pay reasonable finders', administrative and custodial fees in
connection with a loan of its securities or may share the interest earned
on collateral with the borrower.




                                   B-26

<PAGE>



         Since voting or consent rights which accompany loaned securities
pass to the borrower, each Portfolio will follow the policy of calling
the loan, in whole or in part as may be appropriate, to permit the
exercise of such rights if the matters involved would have a material
effect on the Portfolio's investment in the securities which are the
subject of the loan.

         Reverse Repurchase Agreements. A Portfolio may enter into
reverse repurchase agreements with brokers, dealers, domestic and foreign
banks or other financial institutions that have been determined by the
Adviser to be creditworthy. In a reverse repurchase agreement, the
Portfolio sells a security and agrees to repurchase it at a mutually
agreed upon date and price, reflecting the interest rate effective for
the term of the agreement. It may also be viewed as the borrowing of
money by the Portfolio. The Portfolio's investment of the proceeds of a
reverse repurchase agreement is the speculative factor known as leverage.
A Portfolio will enter into a reverse repurchase agreement only if the
interest income from investment of the proceeds is expected to be greater
than the interest expense of the transaction and the proceeds are
invested for a period no longer than the term of the agreement. The
Portfolio will maintain with the Custodian a separate account with a
segregated portfolio of cash or liquid securities in an amount at least
equal to its purchase obligations under these agreements (including
accrued interest). In the event that the buyer of securities under a
reverse repurchase agreement files for bankruptcy or becomes insolvent,
the buyer or its trustee or receiver may receive an extension of time to
determine whether to enforce the Portfolio's repurchase obligation, and
the Portfolio's use of proceeds of the agreement may effectively be
restricted pending such decision. Reverse repurchase agreements are
considered to be borrowings and are subject to the percentage limitations
on borrowings. See "Investment Restrictions."

         Dollar Rolls. Each Portfolio may enter into "dollar rolls" in
which a Portfolio sells mortgage or other asset-backed securities ("Roll
Securities") for delivery in the current month and simultaneously
contracts to repurchase substantially similar (same type, coupon and
maturity) securities on a specified future date. During the roll period,
the Portfolio foregoes principal and interest paid on the Roll
Securities. The Portfolio is compensated by the difference between the
current sales price and the lower forward price for the future purchase
(often referred to as the "drop") as well as by the interest earned on
the cash proceeds of the initial sale. The Portfolio also could be
compensated through the receipt of fee income equivalent to a lower
forward price. A "covered roll" is a specific type of dollar roll for
which there is an offsetting cash position or a cash equivalent security
position which matures on or before the forward settlement date of the
dollar roll transaction. A Portfolio will only enter into covered rolls.
Because "roll" transactions involve both the sale and purchase of a
security, they may cause the reported portfolio turnover rate to be
higher than that reflecting typical portfolio management activities.

         Dollar rolls involve certain risks including the following: if
the broker-dealer to whom the Portfolio sells the security becomes
insolvent, the Portfolio's right to purchase or repurchase the security
subject to the dollar roll may be restricted and the instrument which the
Portfolio is required to repurchase may be worth less than an instrument
which the Portfolio originally held. Successful use of dollar rolls will
depend upon the Adviser's ability to predict correctly interest rates and
in the case of mortgage dollar rolls, mortgage prepayments. For these
reasons, there is no assurance that dollar rolls can be successfully
employed.

         Standby Commitments. Standby commitments are put options that
entitle holders to same day settlement at an exercise price equal to the
amortized cost of the underlying security plus accrued interest, if any,
at the time of exercise. A Portfolio may acquire standby commitments to
enhance the liquidity of portfolio securities, but only when the issuers
of the commitments present minimal risk of default. Ordinarily, the
Portfolio may not transfer a standby commitment to a third party,
although it could sell the underlying municipal security to a third party
at any time. A Portfolio may purchase standby commitments separate from
or in conjunction with the purchase of securities subject to such
commitments. In the latter case, the Portfolio would pay a higher price
for the securities acquired, thus reducing their yield to maturity.
Standby commitments will not affect the dollar-weighted average maturity
of the Portfolio, or the valuation of the securities underlying the
commitments. Issuers or financial intermediaries may obtain letters of
credit or other guarantees to support their ability to buy securities on
demand. The Adviser may rely upon its evaluation of a bank's credit in
determining whether to support an instrument supported by a letter of
credit. Standby commitments are subject to certain risks, including the
ability of issuers of standby commitments to pay for securities at the
time the commitments are exercised; the fact that standby commitments are
not marketable by the Portfolio; and the possibility that the maturities
of the underlying securities may be different from those of the
commitments.

         Interest-Rate Swaps, Mortgage Swaps, Caps, Collars and Floors.
In order to protect the value of portfolios from interest rate
fluctuations and to hedge against fluctuations in the fixed income market
in which certain of the Portfolios' investments are traded, the Portfolio
may enter into interest-rate swaps and mortgage swaps or purchase or sell
interest-rate caps, floors or collars. The Portfolio will enter into
these hedging transactions primarily to preserve a return or spread on a
particular investment or portion of the portfolio and to protect against
any increase in the price of securities the Portfolio anticipates
purchasing at a later date. The Portfolio may also enter into
interest-rate swaps for non-hedging purposes. Interest-rate swaps are
individually negotiated, and the Portfolio expects to achieve an
acceptable degree of correlation between its portfolio investments and
interest-rate positions. A Portfolio will only enter into interest-rate
swaps on a net basis, which means that the two payment streams are netted
out, with the Portfolio receiving or paying, as the case may be, only the
net amount of the two payments. Interest-rate swaps do not involve the
delivery of securities, other underlying assets or principal.
Accordingly, the risk of loss with respect to interest-rate swaps is
limited to the net amount of interest payments that the Portfolio is
contractually obligated to make. If the other party to an interest-rate
swap defaults, the Portfolio's risk of loss consists of the net amount of
interest payments that the Portfolio is contractually entitled to
receive. The use of interest-rate swaps is a highly specialized activity
which involves investment techniques and risks different from those
associated with ordinary portfolio securities transactions. All of these
investments may be deemed to be illiquid for purposes of the Portfolio's
limitation on investment in such securities. Inasmuch as these
investments are entered into for good faith hedging purposes, and
inasmuch as segregated accounts will be established with respect to such
transactions, the Fund believes such obligations do not constitute senior
securities and accordingly, will not treat them as being subject to its
borrowing restrictions. The net amount of the excess, if any, of the
Portfolio's obligations over its entitlements with respect to each
interest-rate swap will be accrued on a daily basis and an amount of cash
or liquid securities having an aggregate net asset value at least equal
to the accrued excess will be maintained in a segregated account by a
custodian that satisfies the requirements of the 1940

                                   B-28

<PAGE>



Act. The Portfolio will also establish and maintain such segregated
accounts with respect to its total obligations under any interest-rate
swaps that are not entered into on a net basis and with respect to any
interest-rate caps, collars and floors that are written by the Portfolio.

         A Portfolio will enter into these transactions only with banks
and recognized securities dealers believed by the Adviser to present
minimal credit risk in accordance with guidelines established by the
Board of Directors. If there is a default by the other party to such a
transaction, the Portfolio will have to rely on its contractual remedies
(which may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency or similar laws) pursuant
to the agreements related to the transaction.

         The swap market has grown substantially in recent years with a
large number of banks and investment banking firms acting both as
principals and as agents utilizing standardized swap documentation. Caps,
collars and floors are more recent innovations for which documentation is
less standardized, and accordingly, they are less liquid than swaps.

         Mortgage swaps are similar to interest-rate swaps in that they
represent commitments to pay and receive interest. The notional principal
amount, upon which the value of the interest payments is based, is tied
to reference pool or pools of mortgages.

         The purchase of an interest-rate cap entitles the purchaser, to
the extent that a specified index exceeds a predetermined interest rate,
to receive payments of interest on a notional principal amount from the
party selling such interest-rate cap. The purchase of an interest-rate
floor entitles the purchaser, to the extent that a specified index falls
below a predetermined interest rate, to receive payments of interest on a
notional principal amount from the party selling such interest-rate
floor.

                            PORTFOLIO TURNOVER

         The portfolio turnover rate is calculated for each Portfolio by
dividing (a) the lesser of purchases or sales of portfolio securities for
the fiscal year by (b) the monthly average of the value of portfolio
securities owned during the fiscal year. For purposes of this
calculation, securities which at the time of purchase had a remaining
maturity of one year or less are excluded from the numerator and the
denominator. Transactions in Futures or the exercise of calls written by
a Portfolio may cause the Portfolio to sell portfolio securities, thus
increasing its turnover rate. The exercise of puts also may cause a sale
of securities and increase turnover; although such exercise is within a
Portfolio's control, holding a protective put might cause the Portfolio
to sell the underlying securities for reasons which would not exist in
the absence of the put. A Portfolio will pay a brokerage commission each
time it buys or sells a security in connection with the exercise of a put
or call. Some commissions may be higher than those which would apply to
direct purchases or sales of portfolio securities. Because each of the
Advisers to each Portfolio manages its portion of the Portfolio's assets
independently, it is possible that the same security may be purchased and
sold on the same day by two or more Advisers to the same Portfolio,
resulting in higher brokerage commissions for the Portfolio. It is not
anticipated that the annual rate of portfolio turnover will exceed 200%.



                                   B-29

<PAGE>



         High portfolio turnover involves correspondingly greater
brokerage commissions and other transaction costs which will be borne
directly by a Portfolio. High portfolio turnover may also involve a
possible increase in short-term capital gains or losses.

                         INVESTMENT RESTRICTIONS

         The Fund has adopted for each Portfolio certain investment
restrictions that are fundamental policies and cannot be changed without
the approval of the holders of a majority of that Portfolio's outstanding
shares. Such majority is defined as the vote of the lesser of (i) 67% or
more of the outstanding shares present at a meeting, if the holders of
more than 50% of the outstanding shares are present in person or by proxy
or (ii) more than 50% of the outstanding shares. All percentage
limitations expressed in the following investment restrictions are
measured immediately after the relevant transaction is made. Each
Portfolio may not:

         1. Invest more than 25% of the Portfolio's total assets in the
securities of issuers in the same industry. Obligations of the U.S.
Government, its agencies and instrumentalities are not subject to this
25% limitation on industry concentration.

         2. Invest in real estate (including limited partnership
interests but excluding securities of companies, such as real estate
investment trusts, which deal in real estate or interests therein);
provided that a Portfolio may hold or sell real estate acquired as a
result of the ownership of securities.

         3. Purchase or sell commodities or commodity contracts, except
to the extent that the Portfolio may do so in accordance with applicable
law and the Prospectus and Statement of Additional Information, as they
may be amended from time to time, and without registering as a commodity
pool operator under the Commodity Exchange Act. Any Portfolio may engage
in transactions in put and call options on securities, indices and
currencies, spread transactions, forward and futures contracts on
securities, indices and currencies, put and call options on such futures
contracts, forward commitment transactions, forward foreign currency
exchange contracts, interest rate, mortgage and currency swaps and
interest rate floors and caps and may purchase hybrid instruments.

         4. Make loans to others except for (a) the purchase of debt
securities; (b) entering into repurchase agreements; and (c) the lending
of its portfolio securities.

         5. Borrow money, except that (i) each Portfolio may borrow from
banks in amounts up to 331/3% of its total assets for temporary or
emergency purposes, (ii) each Portfolio may borrow for investment
purposes to the maximum extent permissible under the 1940 Act (i.e.,
presently 50% of net assets), and (iii) a Portfolio may obtain such
short-term credit as may be necessary for the clearance of purchases and
sales of portfolio securities. This policy shall not prohibit a
Portfolio's engaging in reverse repurchase agreements, dollar rolls and
similar investment strategies described in the Prospectus and Statement
of Additional Information, as they may be amended from time to time.

                                   B-30

<PAGE>



         6. Issue senior securities as defined in the 1940 Act, except
that each Portfolio may enter into repurchase agreements, reverse
repurchase agreements, dollar rolls, lend its portfolio securities and
borrow money from banks, as described above, and engage in similar
investment strategies described in the Prospectus and Statement of
Additional Information, as they may be amended from time to time.

         7. Engage in underwriting of securities issued by others, except
to the extent that the Portfolio may be deemed to be an underwriter in
connection with the disposition of portfolio securities of the Portfolio.

         The following additional restrictions are not fundamental
policies and may be changed by the Directors without a vote of
shareholders. Each Portfolio may not:

         8. Purchase securities on margin, provided that margin deposits
in connection with futures contracts, options on futures contracts and
other derivative instruments shall not constitute purchasing securities
on margin.

         9. Pledge, mortgage or hypothecate its assets, except to the
extent necessary to secure permitted borrowings and, to the extent
related to the segregation of assets in connection with the writing of
covered put and call options and the purchase of securities or currencies
on a forward commitment or delayed-delivery basis and collateral and
initial or variation margin arrangements with respect to forward
contracts, options, futures contracts and options on futures contracts.
In addition, a Portfolio may pledge assets in reverse repurchase
agreements, dollar rolls and similar investment strategies described in
the Prospectus and Statement of Additional Information, as they may be
amended from time to time.

         10. Invest in securities of other registered investment
companies, except by purchases in the open market, involving only
customary brokerage commissions and as a result of which not more than
10% of its total assets (determined at the time of investment) would be
invested in such securities, or except as part of a merger, consolidation
or other acquisition.

         11. Enter into any repurchase agreement maturing in more than
seven days or investing in any other illiquid security if, as a result,
more than 15% of a Portfolio's net assets would be so invested.
Restricted securities eligible for resale pursuant to Rule 144A under the
Securities Act that have a readily available market, and commercial paper
exempted from registration under the Securities Act pursuant to Section
4(2) of that Act that may be offered and sold to "qualified institutional
buyers" as defined in Rule 144A, which the Adviser has determined to be
liquid pursuant to guidelines established by the Directors, will not be
considered illiquid for purposes of this 15% limitation on illiquid
securities.

         Directors and officers of the Fund are also Directors and
officers of some or all of the other investment companies managed,
administered or advised by SunAmerica, and distributed by SunAmerica
Capital Services ("SACS" or the "Distributor") and other affiliates of
SunAmerica Inc.

         The Fund pays each Director who is not an interested person of
the Fund, SunAmerica or any Adviser, nor a party to any Management
Agreement or Subadvisory Agreement (collectively, the "Disinterested
Directors") annual compensation in addition to reimbursement of
out-of-pocket expenses in connection with attendance at meetings of the
Directors. Specifically, each Disinterested Director receives an
aggregate of up to $60,000 in annual compensation for acting as director
or trustee to the SAMF, AST and/or the Fund, a pro rata portion of which,
based on relative net assets, is borne by the Fund.

         In addition, each Disinterested Director also serves on the
Audit Committee of the Board of Directors. Each member of the Audit
Committee receives an aggregate of up to $5,000 in annual compensation
for serving on the Audit Committees of the SAMF, AST and/or the Fund, a
pro rata

                                   B-34

<PAGE>



portion of which, based on relative net assets, is borne by the Fund. The
Fund also has a Nominating Committee, comprised solely of Disinterested
Directors, which recommends to the Directors those persons to be
nominated for election as Directors by shareholders and selects and
proposes nominees for election by Directors between shareholders'
meetings. Members of the Nominating Committee serve without compensation.

         The Directors (and Trustees) of the SAMF, AST and the Fund have
adopted the SunAmerica Disinterested Trustees' and Directors' Retirement
Plan (the "Retirement Plan") effective January 1, 1993 for the
unaffiliated Directors. The Retirement Plan provides generally that if a
Disinterested Director who has at least 10 years of consecutive service
as a Disinterested Director of any of the SAMF, AST or the Fund (an
"Eligible Director") retires after reaching age 60 but before age 70 or
dies while a Director, such person will be eligible to receive a
retirement or death benefit from each SunAmerica mutual fund with respect
to which he or she is an Eligible Director. As of each birthday, prior to
the 70th birthday, each Eligible Director will be credited with an amount
equal to (i) 50% of his or her regular fees (excluding committee fees)
for services as a Disinterested Director of each SunAmerica mutual fund
for the calendar year in which such birthday occurs, plus (ii) 8.5% of
any amounts credited under clause (i) during prior years. An Eligible
Director may receive any benefits payable under the Retirement Plan, at
his or her election, either in one lump sum or in up to fifteen annual
installments.

         The following table sets forth information summarizing the
compensation that the Fund paid each Disinterested Director for his
services as Director for the fiscal year ended October 31, 1997. The
Directors who are interested persons of the Fund receive no compensation.

                 ADVISERS, DISTRIBUTOR AND ADMINISTRATOR

SunAmerica Asset Management Corp. SunAmerica, organized as a Delaware
corporation in 1982, is located at The SunAmerica Center, 733 Third
Avenue, New York, NY 10017-3204, and acts as the investment manager to
each of the Portfolios pursuant to the Investment Advisory and Management
Agreement (the "Management Agreement") with the Fund, on behalf of each
Portfolio. SunAmerica is an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of
SunAmerica Inc. SunAmerica Inc. is incorporated in the State of Maryland
and maintains its principal executive offices at 1 SunAmerica Center, Los
Angeles, CA 90067-6022, telephone (310) 772-6000.

         Under the Management Agreement, and except as delegated to the
Advisers under the Subadvisory Agreements (as defined below), SunAmerica
manages the investment of the assets of each Portfolio and obtains and
evaluates economic, statistical and financial information to formulate
and implement investment policies for each Portfolio. Any investment
program undertaken by SunAmerica

                                   B-36

<PAGE>



will at all times be subject to the policies and control of the
Directors. SunAmerica also provides certain administrative services to
each Portfolio.

         Except to the extent otherwise specified in the Management
Agreement, each Portfolio pays, or causes to be paid, all other expenses
of the Fund and each of the Portfolios, including, without limitation,
charges and expenses of any registrar, custodian, transfer and dividend
disbursing agent; brokerage commissions; taxes; engraving and printing of
share certificates; registration costs of the Portfolios and their shares
under Federal and state securities laws; the cost and expense of
printing, including typesetting, and distributing Prospectuses and
Statements of Additional Information respecting the Portfolios, and
supplements thereto, to the shareholders of the Portfolios; all expenses
of shareholders' and Directors' meetings and of preparing, printing and
mailing proxy statements and reports to shareholders; all expenses
incident to any dividend, withdrawal or redemption options; fees and
expenses of legal counsel and independent accountants; membership dues of
industry associations; interest on borrowings of the Portfolios; postage;
insurance premiums on property or personnel (including Officers and
Directors) of the Fund which inure to its benefit; extraordinary expenses
(including, but not limited to, legal claims and liabilities and
litigation costs and any indemnification relating thereto); and all other
costs of the Fund's operation.

         The annual rate of the investment advisory fees that apply to
each Portfolio are set forth in the Prospectus.

         Effective June 17, 1997, with respect to the Mid-Cap Growth
Portfolio, Aggressive Growth Portfolio, Value Portfolio and International
Equity Portfolio, and the date of commencement of operations with respect
to the Large-Cap Growth Portfolio, Large-Cap Blend Portfolio, Large-Cap
Value Portfolio and Small-Cap Value Portfolio; SunAmerica has voluntarily
agreed to waive fees or reimburse expenses, if necessary, to keep
operating expenses at or below an annual rate of 1.78% of the Assets of
Class A shares and 2.43% of the Assets of Class B and Class C shares for
each such Portfolio (other than the International Equity Portfolio) and
2.03% of the Assets of Class A shares and 2.68% of the Assets of Class B
and Class C shares for the International Equity Portfolio. Prior to June
17, 1997, with respect to the Mid-Cap Growth Portfolio, Aggressive Growth
Portfolio, Value Portfolio and International Equity Portfolio, SunAmerica
voluntarily agreed to waive fees or reimburse expenses to keep annual
operating expenses at or below an annual rate of 1.90% of the Assets of
Class A shares and 2.55% of the Assets of Class B and Class C shares for
each such Portfolio (other than the International Equity Portfolio) and
2.15% of the Assets of Class A shares and 2.80% of the Assets of Class B
and Class C shares for the International Equity Portfolio. SunAmerica
also may voluntarily waive or reimburse additional amounts to increase
the investment return to a Portfolio's investors. SunAmerica may
terminate all such waivers and/or reimbursements at any time. Further,
any waivers or reimbursements made by SunAmerica with respect to a
Portfolio are subject to recoupment from that Portfolio within the
following two years, provided that the Portfolio is able to effect such
payment to SunAmerica and remain in compliance with the foregoing expense
limitations. The potential reimbursements are accounted for as possible
contingent liabilities that are not recordable on the balance sheet of a
Portfolio until collection is probable, but appear as footnote disclosure
to each Portfolio's financial statements. At such time as it appears
probable that a Portfolio is able to effect such reimbursement and that
SunAmerica intends to seek such reimbursement, the amount of the
reimbursement will be accrued as an expense of the Portfolio for that
current period.



                                   B-37

<PAGE>



         The Management Agreement will continue in effect with respect to
each Portfolio, for a period of two years from the date of execution
unless terminated sooner, and thereafter from year to year, if approved
at least annually by vote of a majority of the Directors or by the
holders of a majority of the respective Portfolio's outstanding voting
securities. Any such continuation also requires approval by a majority of
the Disinterested Directors by vote cast in person at a meeting called
for such purpose. The Management Agreement may be terminated with respect
to a Portfolio at any time, without penalty, on 60 days' written notice
by the Directors, by the holders of a majority of the respective
Portfolio's outstanding voting securities or by SunAmerica. The
Management Agreement automatically terminates with respect to each
Portfolio in the event of its assignment (as defined in the 1940 Act and
the rules thereunder).

         Under the terms of the Management Agreement, SunAmerica is not
liable to the Portfolios, or their shareholders, for any act or omission
by it or for any losses sustained by the Portfolios or their
shareholders, except in the case of willful misfeasance, bad faith, gross
negligence or reckless disregard of duty.

The Advisers. The organizations identified in the Prospectus act as
Advisers to the Fund and its Portfolios pursuant to the Subadvisory
Agreements with SunAmerica.

         As described in the Prospectus, SunAmerica will initially
allocate the assets of each Portfolio equally among the Advisers for that
Portfolio, and subsequently, allocations of new cash flow and of
redemption requests will be made equally among the Advisers of each
Portfolio unless SunAmerica determines, subject to the review of the
Directors, that a different allocation of assets would be in the best
interests of a Portfolio and its shareholders. The Fund expects that
differences in investment returns among the portions of a Portfolio
managed by different Advisers will cause the actual percentage of a
Portfolio's assets managed by each Adviser to vary over time. In general,
a Portfolio's assets once allocated to one Adviser will not be
reallocated (or "rebalanced") to another Adviser for the Portfolio.
However, SunAmerica reserves the right, subject to the review of the
Board, to reallocate assets from one Adviser to another when deemed in
the best interests of a Portfolio and its shareholders. In some
instances, where a reallocation results in any rebalancing of the
Portfolio from a previous allocation, the effect of the reallocation will
be to shift assets from a better performing Adviser to a portion of the
Portfolio with a relatively lower total return.

         Each Adviser is paid monthly by SunAmerica a fee equal to a
percentage of the average daily net assets of the Portfolio allocated to
the Adviser. The aggregate annual rates, as a percentage of daily net
assets, of the fees payable by SunAmerica to the Advisers for each
Portfolio may vary according to the level of Assets of each Portfolio.
For the fiscal year ended October 31, 1997, SunAmerica paid fees to the
Advisers equal to the following aggregate annual rates, expressed as a
percentage of the Assets of each Portfolio: Large-Cap Growth Portfolio,
0.48%; Mid-Cap Growth Portfolio, 0.50%; Aggressive Growth Portfolio,
0.37%; Large-Cap Blend Portfolio, 0.32%; Large-Cap Value Portfolio,
0.41%; Value Portfolio, 0.50%; Small-Cap Value Portfolio, 0.55%; and
International Equity Portfolio, 0.65%.

         The following table sets forth the total advisory fees incurred

         The Subadvisory Agreements will continue in effect for a period
of two years from the date of their execution, unless terminated sooner.
They may be renewed from year to year thereafter, so long as continuance
is specifically approved at least annually in accordance with the
requirements of the 1940 Act. The Subadvisory Agreements provide that
they will terminate in the event of an assignment (as defined in the 1940
Act) or upon termination of the Management Agreement. Under the terms of
the Subadvisory Agreements, no Adviser is liable to the Portfolios, or
their shareholders, for any act or omission by it or for any losses
sustained by the Portfolios or their shareholders, except in the case of
willful misfeasance, bad faith, gross negligence or reckless disregard of
obligations or duties.

services as a director. These guidelines are substantially similar to
those contained in the Report of the Advisory Group on Personal Investing
issued by the Investment Company Institute's Advisory Panel. SunAmerica
reports to the Board of Directors on a quarterly basis, as to whether
there were any violations of the Code by Access Persons of the Fund or
SunAmerica during the quarter.

         The Advisers have each adopted a written Code of Ethics, and
have represented that the provisions of such Code of Ethics are
substantially similar to those in the Code. Further, the Advisers report
to SunAmerica on a quarterly basis, as to whether there were any Code of
Ethics violations by employees thereof who may be deemed Access Persons
of the Fund insofar as such violations related to the Fund. In turn,
SunAmerica reports to the Board of Directors as to whether there were any
violations of the Code by Access Persons of the Fund or SunAmerica.

The Distributor. The Fund, on behalf of each Portfolio, has entered into
a distribution agreement (the "Distribution Agreement") with the
Distributor, a registered broker-dealer and an indirect wholly owned
subsidiary of SunAmerica Inc., to act as the principal underwriter of the
shares of each Portfolio. The address of the Distributor is The
SunAmerica Center, 733 Third Avenue, New York, NY 10017-3204. The
Distribution Agreement provides that the Distributor has the exclusive
right to distribute shares of the Portfolios through its registered
representatives and authorized broker-dealers. The Distribution Agreement
also provides that the Distributor will pay the promotional expenses,
including the incremental cost of printing prospectuses, annual reports
and other periodic reports respecting each Portfolio, for

                                   B-40

<PAGE>



distribution to persons who are not shareholders of such Portfolio and
the costs of preparing and distributing any other supplemental sales
literature. However, certain promotional expenses may be borne by the
Portfolio (see "Distribution Plans" below).

         SACS serves as Distributor of Class Z shares, with respect to
the Aggressive Growth Portfolio, Large-Cap Value Portfolio, Value
Portfolio, Small-Cap Value Portfolio and International Equity Portfolio,
and incurs the expenses of distributing the Portfolio's Class Z shares
under the Distribution Agreement, none of which are reimbursed or paid by
the Fund.

         The Distribution Agreement with respect to each Portfolio will
remain in effect for two years from the date of execution unless
terminated sooner, and thereafter from year to year if such continuance
is approved at least annually by the Directors, including a majority of
the Disinterested Directors. The Fund and the Distributor each has the
right to terminate the Distribution Agreement with respect to a Portfolio
on 60 days' written notice, without penalty. The Distribution Agreement
will terminate automatically in the event of its assignment as defined in
the 1940 Act and the rules thereunder.

         The Distributor may, from time to time, pay additional
commissions or promotional incentives to brokers, dealers or other
financial services firms that sell shares of the Portfolios. In some
instances, such additional commissions, fees or other incentives may be
offered only to certain firms, including Royal Alliance Associates,
SunAmerica Securities, Inc., Koegler Morgan & Company, Financial Service
Corporation and Advantage Capital Corporation, affiliates of the
Distributor, that sell or are expected to sell during specified time
periods certain minimum amounts of shares of the Portfolios, or of other
funds underwritten by the Distributor. In addition, the terms and
conditions of any given promotional incentive may differ from firm to
firm. Such differences will, nevertheless, be fair and equitable, and
based on such factors as size, geographic location, or other reasonable
determinants, and will in no way affect the amount paid to any investor.

Distribution Plans. As indicated in the Prospectus, the Directors of the
Fund have adopted Distribution Plans (the "Class A Plan," the "Class B
Plan" and the "Class C Plan" and collectively, the "Distribution Plans")
pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act. There is no Distribution Plan
in effect for Class Z shares. Reference is made to "Management of the
Fund - Distribution Plans" in the Prospectus for certain information with
respect to the Distribution Plans.

         Under the Class A Plan, the Distributor may receive payments
from a Portfolio at an annual rate of up to 0.10% of average daily net
assets of such Portfolio's Class A shares to compensate the Distributor
and certain securities firms for providing sales and promotional
activities for distributing that class of shares. Under the Class B and
Class C Plans, the Distributor may receive payments from a Portfolio at
the annual rate of up to 0.75% of the average daily net assets of such
Portfolio's Class B and Class C shares to compensate the Distributor and
certain securities firms for providing sales and promotional activities
for distributing each such class of shares. The distribution costs for
which the Distributor may be reimbursed out of such distribution fees
include fees paid to broker-dealers that have sold Portfolio shares,
commissions and other expenses such as sales literature, prospectus
printing and distribution and compensation to wholesalers. It is possible
that in any given year the amount paid to the Distributor under the Class
A Plan, the Class B Plan or the Class C Plan will exceed the
Distributor's distribution costs as described above. The Distribution
Plans provide that each class of shares of each Portfolio may also pay
the Distributor an account maintenance and service fee of up to 0.25% of
the aggregate average daily net assets of such class of shares for
payments to broker-dealers for providing

                                   B-41

<PAGE>



continuing account maintenance. In this regard, some payments are used to
compensate broker-dealers with trail commissions or account maintenance
and service fees in an amount up to 0.25% per year of the assets
maintained in a Portfolio by their customers.

         Continuance of the Distribution Plans with respect to each
Portfolio is subject to annual approval by vote of the Directors,
including a majority of the Independent Directors. A Distribution Plan
may not be amended to increase materially the amount authorized to be
spent thereunder with respect to a class of shares of a Portfolio,
without approval of the shareholders of the affected class of shares of
the Portfolio. In addition, all material amendments to the Distribution
Plans must be approved by the Directors in the manner described above. A
Distribution Plan may be terminated at any time with respect to a
Portfolio without payment of any penalty by vote of a majority of the
Independent Directors or by vote of a majority of the outstanding voting
securities (as defined in the 1940 Act) of the affected class of shares
of the Portfolio. So long as the Distribution Plans are in effect, the
election and nomination of the Independent Directors of the Fund shall be
committed to the discretion of the Independent Directors. In the
Directors' quarterly review of the Distribution Plans, they will consider
the continued appropriateness of, and the level of, compensation provided
in the Distribution Plans. In their consideration of the Distribution
Plans with respect to a Portfolio, the Directors must consider all
factors they deem relevant, including information as to the benefits of
the Portfolio and the shareholders of the relevant class of the
Portfolio.

The Administrator. The Fund has entered into a Service Agreement, under
the terms of which SunAmerica Fund Services ("SAFS"), an indirect wholly
owned subsidiary of SunAmerica Inc., acts as a servicing agent assisting
State Street Bank and Trust Company ("State Street") in connection with
certain services offered to the shareholders of each of the Portfolios.
Under the terms of the Service Agreement, SAFS may receive reimbursement
of its costs in providing such shareholder services. SAFS is located at
The SunAmerica Center, 733 Third Avenue, New York, NY 10017-3204.





                                   B-42

<PAGE>



         The Service Agreement will remain in effect for two years from
the date of approval with respect to each Portfolio and from year to year
thereafter provided its continuance is approved annually by vote of the
Directors including a majority of the Disinterested Directors.

         Pursuant to the Service Agreement, as compensation for services
rendered, SAFS receives a fee from the Fund, computed and payable monthly
based upon an annual rate of 0.22% of average daily net assets. This fee
represents the full cost of providing shareholder and transfer agency
services to the Fund. From this fee, SAFS pays a fee to State Street, and
its affiliate, National Financial Data Services ("NFDS" and with State
Street, the "Transfer Agent") (other than out-of-pocket charges which
would be paid by the Fund). No portion of such fee is paid or reimbursed
by Class Z shares. For further information regarding the Transfer Agent
see the section entitled "Additional Information" below.

                   PORTFOLIO TRANSACTIONS AND BROKERAGE

         As discussed in the Prospectus, the Advisers are responsible for
decisions to buy and sell securities for each respective Portfolio,
selection of broker-dealers and negotiation of commission rates.
Purchases and sales of securities on a securities exchange are effected
through broker-dealers who charge a negotiated commission for their
services. Orders may be directed to any broker-dealer including, to the
extent and in the manner permitted by applicable law, an affiliated
brokerage subsidiary of SunAmerica or another Adviser.

         In the over-the-counter market, securities are generally traded
on a "net" basis with dealers acting as principal for their own accounts
without a stated commission (although the price of the security usually
includes a profit to the dealer). In underwritten offerings, securities
are purchased at a fixed price which includes an amount of compensation
to the underwriter, generally referred to as the underwriter's concession
or discount. On occasion, certain money market instruments may be
purchased directly from an issuer, in which case no commissions or
discounts are paid.

         An Adviser's primary consideration in effecting a security
transaction is to obtain the best net price and the most favorable
execution of the order. However, the Adviser may select broker-dealers
that provide it with research services and may cause a Portfolio to pay
such broker-dealers commissions that exceed those that other
broker-dealers may have charged, if in its view the commissions are
reasonable in relation to the value of the brokerage and/or research
services provided by the broker-dealer. Certain research services
furnished by brokers may be useful to the Adviser with respect to clients
other than the Fund. No specific value can be determined for research
services furnished without cost to the Adviser by a broker. The Advisers
are of the opinion that because the material must be analyzed and
reviewed by its staff, its receipt does not tend to reduce expenses, but
may be beneficial in supplementing the Adviser's research and analysis.
Therefore, it may tend to benefit the Portfolio by improving the quality
of the Adviser's investment advice. The investment advisory fees paid by
the Portfolio are not reduced because the Adviser receives such services.
When making purchases of underwritten issues with fixed underwriting
fees, the Adviser may designate the use of broker-dealers who have agreed
to provide the Adviser with certain statistical, research and other
information.

         Subject to applicable law and regulations, consideration may
also be given to the willingness of particular brokers to sell shares of
a Portfolio as a factor in the selection of brokers for transactions
effected on behalf of a Portfolio, subject to the requirement of best
price and execution.


                                   B-43

<PAGE>



         Although the objectives of other accounts or investment
companies that the Adviser manages may differ from those of the
Portfolio, it is possible that, at times, identical securities will be
acceptable for purchase by one or more of the Portfolios and one or more
other accounts or investment companies that the Adviser manages. However,
the position of each account or company in the securities of the same
issue may vary with the length of the time that each account or company
may choose to hold its investment in those securities. The timing and
amount of purchase by each account and company will also be determined by
its cash position. If the purchase or sale of a security is consistent
with the investment policies of one or more of the Portfolios and one or
more of these other accounts or companies is considered at or about the
same time, transactions in such securities will be allocated in a manner
deemed equitable by the Adviser. The Adviser may combine such
transactions, in accordance with applicable laws and regulations.
However, simultaneous transactions could adversely affect the ability of
a Portfolio to obtain or dispose of the full amount of a security, which
it seeks to purchase or sell, or the price at which such security can be
purchased or sold.

         The following table sets forth the brokerage commissions paid by
the Portfolios and the amounts of the brokerage commissions which were
paid to affiliated broker-dealers by the Portfolios for the fiscal year
ended October 31, 1997.

Waiver of Contingent Deferred Sales Charges. As discussed under "Purchase
of Shares" in the Prospectus, the CDSC may be waived on redemptions of
Class B and Class C shares under certain

circumstances. The conditions set forth below are applicable with respect
to the following situations with the proper documentation:

         Death. CDSCs may be waived on redemptions within one year
following the death (i) of the sole shareholder on an individual account,
(ii) of a joint tenant where the surviving joint tenant is the deceased's
spouse, or (iii) of the beneficiary of a Uniform Gifts to Minors Act,
Uniform Transfers to Minors Act or other custodial account. The CDSC
waiver is also applicable in the case where the shareholder account is
registered as community property. If, upon the occurrence of one of the
foregoing, the account is transferred to an account registered in the
name of the deceased's estate, the CDSC will be waived on any redemption
from the estate account occurring within one year of the death. If Class
B shares are not redeemed within one year of the death, they will remain
Class B shares and be subject to the applicable CDSC, when redeemed.

         Disability. A CDSC may be waived on redemptions occurring within
one year after the sole shareholder on an individual account or a joint
tenant on a spousal joint tenant account becomes disabled (as defined in
Section 72(m)(7) of the Internal Revenue Code). To be eligible for such
waiver, (i) the disability must arise after the purchase of shares and
(ii) the disabled shareholder must have been under age 65 at the time of
the initial determination of disability. If the account is transferred to
a new registration and then a redemption is requested, the applicable
CDSC will be charged.

Purchases through the Distributor. An investor may purchase shares of a
Portfolio through dealers which have entered into selected dealer
agreements with the Distributor. An investor's dealer who has entered
into a distribution arrangement with the Distributor is expected to
forward purchase orders and payment promptly to the Portfolio. Orders
received by the Distributor before the close of business will be executed
at the offering price determined at the close of regular trading on the
New York Stock Exchange (the "NYSE") that day. Orders received by the
Distributor after the close of business will be executed at the offering
price determined after the close of the NYSE on the next trading day. The
Distributor reserves the right to cancel any purchase order for which
payment has not been received by the fifth business day following the
investment. A Portfolio will not be responsible for delays caused by
dealers.

Purchase by Check. Checks should be made payable to the specific
Portfolio or to "SunAmerica Funds." If the payment is for a retirement
plan account for which SunAmerica serves as fiduciary, please note on the
check that payment is for such an account. In the case of a new account,
purchase orders by check must be submitted directly by mail to SunAmerica
Fund Services, Inc., Mutual Fund Operations, The SunAmerica Center, 733
Third Avenue, New York, New York 10017-3204, together with payment for
the purchase price of such shares and a completed New Account
Application. Payment for subsequent purchases should be mailed to
SunAmerica Fund Services, Inc., c/o NFDS, P.O. Box 419373, Kansas City,
Missouri 64141-6373 and the shareholder's Portfolio account number should
appear on the check. For fiduciary retirement plan accounts, both initial
and subsequent purchases should be mailed to SunAmerica Fund Services,
Inc., Mutual Fund Operations, The SunAmerica Center, 733 Third Avenue,
New York, New York 10017-3204. Certified checks are not necessary but
checks are accepted subject to collection at full face value in United
States funds and must be drawn on a bank located in the United States.
Upon receipt of the completed New Account Application and payment check,
the Transfer Agent will purchase full and fractional shares of the
applicable Portfolio at the net asset value next computed after the check
is received, plus the applicable sales charge. Subsequent purchases of
shares of each Portfolio may be purchased directly through the Transfer
Agent. SAFS reserves the right to reject any check made payable other
than in the manner indicated above. Under certain circumstances, the Fund
will accept a multi-party check (e.g., a check made payable to the
shareholder by another party and then endorsed by the shareholder to the
Fund in payment for the purchase of shares); however, the processing of
such a check may be subject to a delay. The Fund does not verify the
authenticity of the endorsement of such multi-party check, and acceptance
of the check by the Fund should not be considered verification thereof.
Neither the Fund nor its affiliates will be held liable for any losses
incurred as a result of a fraudulent endorsement. There are restrictions
on the redemption of shares purchased by check for which funds are being
collected. (See "Redemption of Shares" in the Prospectus.)

Purchase through SAFS. SAFS will effect a purchase order on behalf of a
customer who has an investment account upon confirmation of a verified
credit balance at least equal to the amount of the purchase order
(subject to the minimum $500 investment requirement for wire orders). If
such order is received at or prior to the Fund's close of business, the
purchase of shares of a Fund will be effected on that day. If the order
is received after the Fund's close of business, the order will be
effected on the next business day.

Purchase by Federal Funds Wire. An investor may make purchases by having
his or her bank wire Federal funds to the Fund's Transfer Agent. Federal
funds purchase orders will be accepted only on a day on which the Fund
and the Transfer Agent are open for business. In order to insure prompt
receipt of a Federal funds wire, it is important that these steps be

Waiver of Sales Charges with Respect to Certain Purchases of Class A
Shares. To the extent that sales are made for personal investment
purposes, the sales charge is waived as to Class A shares purchased by
current or retired officers, directors, and other full-time employees of
SunAmerica and its affiliates, as well as members of the selling group
and family members of the foregoing. In addition, the sales charge is
waived with respect to shares purchased by certain qualified retirement
plans or employee benefit plans (other than IRAs), which are sponsored or
administered by SunAmerica or an affiliate thereof. Such plans may
include certain employee benefit plans qualified under Sections 401 or
457 of the Internal Revenue Code (the "Code"), or employee benefit plans
created pursuant to Section 403(b) of the Code and sponsored by nonprofit
organizations defined under Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue
Code (collectively, "Plans"). A Plan will qualify for purchases at net
asset value provided that (a) the initial amount invested in one or more
of the Portfolios (or in combination with the shares of other SAMF) is at
least $1,000,000, (b) the sponsor signs a $1,000,000 Letter of Intent,
(c) such shares are purchased by an employer-sponsored plan with at least
100 eligible employees, or (d) the purchases are by trustees or other
fiduciaries for certain employer-sponsored plans, the trustee, fiduciary
or administrator for which has an agreement with the Distributor with
respect to such purchases and all such transactions for the plan are
executed through a single omnibus account. Further, the sales charge is
waived with respect to shares purchased by "wrap accounts" for the
benefit of clients of broker-dealers, financial institutions, financial
planners or registered investment advisers adhering to the following
standards established by the Distributor: (i) the broker-dealer,
financial institution or financial planner charges its client(s) an
advisory fee based on the assets under management on an annual basis, and
(ii) such broker-dealer, financial institution or financial planner does
not advertise that shares of the Portfolio may be purchased by clients at
net asset value. Shares purchased under this waiver may not be resold
except to the Portfolio. Shares are offered at net asset value to the
foregoing persons because of anticipated economies in sales effort and
sales related expenses. Reductions in sales charges apply to purchases or
shares by a "single person" including an individual; members of a family
unit comprising husband, wife and minor children; or a trustee or other
fiduciary purchasing for a single fiduciary account. Complete details
concerning how an investor may purchase shares at reduced sales charges
may be obtained by contacting the Distributor.

Reduced Sales Charges (Class A Shares only). As discussed under "Purchase
of Shares" in the Prospectus, investors in Class A shares of a Portfolio
may be entitled to reduced sales charges pursuant to the following
special purchase plans made available by the Fund.





                                   B-47

<PAGE>



         Combined Purchase Privilege. The following persons may qualify
for the sales charge reductions or eliminations by combining purchases of
Portfolio shares into a single transaction:

         (i) an individual, or a "company" as defined in Section 2(a)(8)
of the 1940 Act (which includes corporations which are corporate
affiliates of each other);

         (ii) an individual, his or her spouse and their minor children,
purchasing for his, her or their own account;

         (iii) a trustee or other fiduciary purchasing for a single trust
estate or single fiduciary account (including a pension, profit-sharing,
or other employee benefit trust created pursuant to a plan qualified
under Section 401 of the Code);

         (iv) tax-exempt organizations qualifying under Section 501(c)(3)
of the Code (not including 403(b) plans);

         (v)  employee benefit plans of a single employer or of affiliated 
employers, other than 403(b) plans; and

         (vi) group purchases as described below.

         A combined purchase currently may also include shares of other
funds in the SAMF (other than money market funds) purchased at the same
time through a single investment dealer, if the dealer places the order
for such shares directly with the Distributor.

         Rights of Accumulation. A purchaser of Portfolio shares may
qualify for a reduced sales charge by combining a current purchase (or
combined purchases as described above) with shares previously purchased
and still owned; provided the cumulative value of such shares (valued at
cost or current net asset value, whichever is higher), amounts to $50,000
or more. In determining the shares previously purchased, the calculation
will include, in addition to other Class A shares of the particular
Portfolio that were previously purchased, shares of the other classes of
the same Portfolio, as well as shares of any class of any other Portfolio
or of any of the other Portfolios advised by SunAmerica, as long as such
shares were sold with a sales charge or acquired in exchange for shares
purchased with such a sales charge.

         The shareholder's dealer, if any, or the shareholder, must
notify the Distributor at the time an order is placed of the
applicability of the reduced charge under the Right of Accumulation. Such
notification must be in writing by the dealer or shareholder when such an
order is placed by mail. The reduced sales charge will not be granted if:
(a) such information is not furnished at the time of the order; or (b) a
review of the Distributor's or the Transfer Agent's records fails to
confirm the investor's represented holdings.

         Letter of Intent. A reduction of sales charges is also available
to an investor who, pursuant to a written Letter of Intent which is set
forth in the New Account Application in the Prospectus, establishes a
total investment goal in Class A shares of one or more Portfolios to be
achieved through any number of investments over a thirteen-month period,
of $50,000 or more. Each investment in such Portfolios made during the
period will be subject to a reduced sales charge applicable to the goal
amount. The initial purchase must be at least 5% of the stated investment
goal and shares totaling 5% of the dollar

                                   B-48

<PAGE>



amount of the Letter of Intent will be held in escrow by the Transfer
Agent, in the name of the investor. Shares of any class of shares of any
Portfolio, or of other funds advised by SunAmerica which impose a sales
charge at the time of purchase, which the investor intends to purchase or
has previously purchased during a 30-day period prior to the date of
execution of the Letter of Intent and still owns, may also be included in
determining the applicable reduction; provided, the dealer or shareholder
notifies the Distributor of such prior purchase(s).

         The Letter of Intent does not obligate the investor to purchase,
nor the Fund to sell, the indicated amounts of the investment goal. In
the event the investment goal is not achieved within the thirteen-month
period, the investor is required to pay the difference between the sales
charge otherwise applicable to the purchases made during this period and
sales charges actually paid. Such payment may be made directly to the
Distributor or, if not paid, the Distributor is authorized by the Letter
of Intent to liquidate a sufficient number of escrowed shares to obtain
such difference. If the goal is exceeded and purchases pass the next
sales charge break-point, the sales charge on the entire amount of the
purchase that results in passing that break-point, and on subsequent
purchases, will be subject to a further reduced sales charge in the same
manner as set forth above under "Rights of Accumulation," but there will
be no retroactive reduction of sales charges on previous purchases. At
any time while a Letter of Intent is in effect, a shareholder may, by
written notice to the Distributor, increase the amount of the stated
goal. In that event, shares of the applicable Portfolio purchased during
the previous 90-day period and still owned by the shareholder will be
included in determining the applicable sales charge. The 5% escrow and
the minimum purchase requirement will be applicable to the new stated
goal. Investors electing to purchase shares of one or more of the
Portfolios pursuant to this purchase plan should carefully read such
Letter of Intent.

         Reduced Sales Charge for Group Purchases. Members of qualified
groups may purchase Class A shares of the Portfolios under the combined
purchase privilege as described above.

         To receive a rate based on combined purchases, group members
must purchase Class A shares of a Portfolio through a single investment
dealer designated by the group. The designated dealer must transmit each
member's initial purchase to the Distributor, together with payment and
completed New Account Application. After the initial purchase, a member
may send funds for the purchase of Class A shares directly to the
Transfer Agent. Purchases of a Portfolio's shares are made at the public
offering price based on the net asset value next determined after the
Distributor or the Transfer Agent receives payment for the Class A
shares. The minimum investment requirements described above apply to
purchases by any group member.

         Qualified groups include the employees of a corporation or a
sole proprietorship, members and employees of a partnership or
association, or other organized groups of persons (the members of which
may include other qualified groups) provided that: (i) the group has at
least 25 members of which at least ten members participate in the initial
purchase; (ii) the group has been in existence for at least six months;
(iii) the group has some purpose in addition to the purchase of
investment company shares at a reduced sales charge; (iv) the group's
sole organizational nexus or connection is not that the members are
credit card customers of a bank or broker-dealer, clients of an
investment adviser or security holders of a company; (v) the group agrees
to provide its designated investment dealer access to the group's
membership by means of written communication or direct presentation to
the membership at a meeting on not less frequently than an annual basis;
(vi) the group or its investment dealer will provide annual
certification, in form satisfactory to the Transfer Agent, that the group
then has at least 25 members and

                                   B-49

<PAGE>



that at least ten members participated in group purchases during the
immediately preceding 12 calendar months; and (vii) the group or its
investment dealer will provide periodic certification, in form
satisfactory to the Transfer Agent, as to the eligibility of the
purchasing members of the group.

         Members of a qualified group include: (i) any group which meets
the requirements stated above and which is a constituent member of a
qualified group; (ii) any individual purchasing for his or her own
account who is carried on the records of the group or on the records of
any constituent member of the group as being a good standing employee,
partner, member or person of like status of the group or constituent
member; or (iii) any fiduciary purchasing shares for the account of a
member of a qualified group or a member's beneficiary. For example, a
qualified group could consist of a trade association which would have as
its members individuals, sole proprietors, partnerships and corporations.
The members of the group would then consist of the individuals, the sole
proprietors and their employees, the members of the partnership and their
employees, and the corporations and their employees, as well as the
trustees of employee benefit trusts acquiring a Portfolio's shares for
the benefit of any of the foregoing.

         Interested groups should contact their investment dealer or the
Distributor. The Fund reserves the right to revise the terms of or to
suspend or discontinue group sales with respect to shares of the
Portfolio at any time.

          ADDITIONAL INFORMATION REGARDING REDEMPTION OF SHARES

         Reference is made to "Redemption of Shares" in the Prospectus
for certain information as to the redemption of Portfolio shares.

         If the Directors determine that it would be detrimental to the
best interests of the remaining shareholders of a Portfolio to make
payment wholly or partly in cash, the Fund, having filed with the SEC a
notification of election pursuant to Rule 18f-1 on behalf of each of the
Portfolios, may pay the redemption price in whole, or in part, by a
distribution in kind of securities from a Portfolio in lieu of cash. In
conformity with applicable rules of the SEC, the Portfolios are committed
to pay in cash all requests for redemption, by any shareholder of record,
limited in amount with respect to each shareholder during any 90-day
period to the lesser of (i) $250,000, or (ii) 1% of the net asset value
of the applicable Portfolio at the beginning of such period. If shares
are redeemed in kind, the redeeming shareholder would incur brokerage
costs in converting the assets into cash. The method of valuing portfolio
securities is described below in the section entitled "Determination of
Net Asset Value," and such valuation will be made as of the same time the
redemption price is determined.

                     DETERMINATION OF NET ASSET VALUE

         The Fund is open for business on any day the NYSE is open for
regular trading. Shares are valued each day as of the close of regular
trading on the NYSE (generally, 4:00 p.m., Eastern time). Each Portfolio
calculates the net asset value of each class of its shares separately by
dividing the total value of each class's net assets by the shares
outstanding of such class.

         Stocks are valued based upon closing sales prices reported on
recognized securities exchanges or, for listed securities having no sales
reported and for unlisted securities, upon last reported bid prices.
Non-convertible bonds, debentures, other long-term debt securities and
short-term securities with original or remaining maturities in excess of
60 days, are normally valued at prices obtained for the day of

                                   B-50

<PAGE>



valuation from a bond pricing service of a major dealer in bonds, when
such prices are available; however, in circumstances in which the
SunAmerica deems it appropriate to do so, an over-the-counter or exchange
quotation at the mean of representative bid or asked prices may be used.
Securities traded primarily on securities exchanges outside the United
States are valued at the last sale price on such exchanges on the day of
valuation, or if there is no sale on the day of valuation, at the
last-reported bid price. If a security's price is available from more
than one foreign exchange, a Portfolio uses the exchange that is the
primary market for the security. Short-term securities with 60 days or
less to maturity are amortized to maturity based on their cost to the
Fund if acquired within 60 days of maturity or, if already held by the
Fund on the 60th day, are amortized to maturity based on the value
determined on the 61st day. Options traded on national securities
exchanges are valued as of the close of the exchange on which they are
traded. Futures and options traded on commodities exchanges are valued at
their last sale price as of the close of such exchange. Other securities
are valued on the basis of last sale or bid price (if a last sale price
is not available) in what is, in the opinion of the SunAmerica, the
broadest and most representative market, that may be either a securities
exchange or the over-the-counter market. Where quotations are not readily
available, securities are valued at fair value as determined in good
faith in accordance with procedures adopted by the Board of Directors.
The fair value of all other assets is added to the value of securities to
arrive at the respective Portfolio's total assets.

         A Portfolio's liabilities, including proper accruals of expense
items, are deducted from total assets.

                             PERFORMANCE DATA

         Each Portfolio may advertise performance data that reflects
various measures of total return and each Portfolio may advertise data
that reflects yield. An explanation of the data presented and the methods
of computation that will be used are as follows.

         A Portfolio's performance may be compared to the historical
returns of various investments, performance indices of those investments
or economic indicators, including, but not limited to, stocks, bonds,
certificates of deposit, money market funds and U.S. Treasury Bills.
Certain of these alternative investments may offer fixed rates of return
and guaranteed principal and may be insured.

         Average annual total return is determined separately for Class
A, Class B, Class C and Class Z shares in accordance with a formula
specified by the SEC. Average annual total return is computed by finding
the average annual compounded rates of return for the 1-, 5-, and 10-year
periods or for the lesser included periods of effectiveness. The formula
used is as follows:
                                     n
                             P(1 + T)  = ERV

          P = a hypothetical initial purchase payment of $1,000 
          T = average annual total return 
          N = number of years
          ERV = ending redeemable value of a hypothetical $1,000
payment made at the beginning of the 1-, 5-, or 10- year periods at the
end of the 1-, 5-, or 10-year periods (or fractional portion thereof).

                                   B-51

<PAGE>



         The above formula assumes that:

         1.    The maximum sales load (i.e., either the front-end sales
               load in the case of the Class A shares or the deferred
               sales load that would be applicable to a complete
               redemption of the investment at the end of the specified
               period in the case of the Class B or Class C shares) is
               deducted from the initial $1,000 purchase payment;

         2.    All dividends and distributions are reinvested at net asset
               value; and

         3.    Complete redemption occurs at the end of the 1-, 5-, or
               10- year periods or fractional portion thereof with all
               nonrecurring charges deducted accordingly.


         Each Portfolios' average annual total return for the 1-, 5- and
10-year periods (or from date of inception, if sooner) ended October 31,
1997 is as follows:

(1) From date of inception of October 15, 1997.

         Each Portfolio may advertise cumulative, rather than average
return, for each class of its shares for periods of time other than the
1-, 5-, and 10-year periods or fractions thereof, as discussed above.
Such return data will be computed in the same manner as that of average
annual total return, except that the actual cumulative return will be
computed.

the next 3,000 stocks traded on the New York Stock Exchange, American
Stock Exchange and National Association of Securities Dealers Automated
Quotations, by market capitalizations.

         aa) Russell Midcap Growth Index -- contains those Russell Midcap
securities with a greater-than-average growth orientation. The stocks are
also members of the Russell 1000 Growth Index, the securities in which
tend to exhibit higher price-to-book and price earnings ratios, lower
dividend yields and higher forecasted growth values than the Value
universe.

         In assessing such comparisons of performance, an investor should
keep in mind that the composition of the investments in the reported
indices and averages is not identical to a Portfolio's portfolio, that
the averages are generally unmanaged and that the items included in the
calculations of such averages may not be identical to the formula used by
a Portfolio to calculate its figures. Specifically, a Portfolio may
compare its performance to that of certain indices which include
securities with government guarantees. However, a Portfolio's shares do
not contain any such guarantees. In addition, there can be no assurance
that a Portfolio will continue its performance as compared to such other
standards.

                    DIVIDENDS, DISTRIBUTIONS AND TAXES

Dividends and Distributions. Each Portfolio intends to distribute to the
registered holders of its shares substantially all of its net investment
income, which includes dividends, interest and net short-term capital
gains, if any, in excess of any net long-term capital losses. Each
Portfolio intends to distribute any net capital gains from the sale of
assets held for more than 12 months in excess of any net short-term
capital losses. The current policy of each Portfolio other than the
Large-Cap Blend Portfolio, is to pay investment income dividends, if any,
at least annually. Large-Cap Blend Portfolio's current policy is to pay
investment income dividends, if any, on a quarterly basis. Each Portfolio
intends to pay net capital gains, if any, annually. In determining
amounts of capital gains to be distributed, any capital loss
carry-forwards from prior years will be offset against capital gains.

         Distributions will be paid in additional Portfolio shares based
on the net asset value at the close of business on the Ex or reinvestment
date, unless the dividends total in excess of $10.00 per distribution
period and the shareholder notifies the Portfolio at least five business
days prior to the payment date to receive such distributions in cash.

         If a shareholder has elected to receive dividends and/or capital
gain distributions in cash, and the postal or other delivery service is
unable to deliver checks to the shareholder's address of record, no
interest will accrue on amounts represented by uncashed dividend or
distribution checks.

Taxes. Each Portfolio intends to qualify and elect to be taxed as a
regulated investment company under Subchapter M of the Code for each
taxable year. In order to be qualified as a regulated investment company,
each Portfolio generally must, among other things, (a) derive at least
90% of its gross income from the sales or other disposition of
securities, dividends, interest, proceeds from loans of stock or
securities and certain other related income; and (b) diversify its
holdings so that, at the end of each fiscal quarter, (i) 50% of the
market value of each Portfolio's assets is represented by cash,
government securities, securities of other regulated investment companies
and other securities limited, in respect of any one issuer, to an amount
no greater than 5% of each Portfolio's assets and not greater than 10% of
the outstanding voting securities of such issuer, and (ii) not more than
25% of the value of its assets is invested in the securities of any one
issuer (other than government securities or the securities of other
regulated investment companies).

         As a regulated investment company, each Portfolio will not be
subject to U.S. Federal income tax on its income and capital gains which
it distributes as dividends or capital gains distributions to
shareholders provided that it distributes to shareholders at least 90% of
its investment company taxable income for the taxable year. Each
Portfolio intends to distribute sufficient income to meet this
qualification requirement.

         Under the Code, amounts not distributed on a timely basis in
accordance with a calendar year distribution requirement are subject to a
nondeductible 4% excise tax. To avoid the tax, each Portfolio must
distribute during each calendar year (1) at least 98% of its ordinary
income (not taking into account any capital gains or losses) for the
calendar year, (2) at least 98% of its capital gains in excess of its
capital losses for the 12-month period ending on October 31 of the
calendar year, and (3) all ordinary income and net capital gains for the
previous years that were not distributed during such years. To avoid
application of the excise tax, each Portfolio intends to make
distributions in accordance with the calendar year distribution
requirement. A distribution will be treated as paid during the calendar
year if actually

                                   B-57

<PAGE>



paid during such year. Additionally, a distribution will be treated as
paid on December 31 of a calender year if it is declared by a Portfolio
in October, November or December of such year, payable to shareholders of
record on a date in such month and paid by such Portfolio during January
of the following year. Any such distributions paid during January of the
following year will be taxable to shareholders as of such December 31,
rather than the date on which the distributions are received.

         Distributions of net investment income and short-term capital
gains are taxable to the shareholder as ordinary dividend income
regardless of whether the shareholder receives such distributions in
additional shares or in cash. The portion of such dividends received from
each Portfolio that will be eligible for the dividends received deduction
for corporations will be determined on the basis of the amount of each
Portfolio's gross income, exclusive of capital gains from sales of stock
or securities, which is derived as dividends from domestic corporations,
other than certain tax-exempt corporations and certain real estate
investment trusts, and will be designated as such in a written notice to
shareholders mailed not later than 60 days after the end of each fiscal
year. It is not anticipated that the dividends paid by the International
Equity Portfolio will be eligible for the dividends-received deduction.
Distributions of net capital gains, if any, are taxable as capital gains
regardless of whether the shareholder receives such distributions in
additional shares or in cash or how long the investor has held his or her
shares, and are not eligible for the dividends received deduction for
corporations.

         Upon a sale or exchange of its shares, a shareholder will
realize a taxable gain or loss depending upon its basis in the shares.
Such gain or loss will be treated as capital gain or loss if the shares
are capital assets in the shareholder's hands. In the case of an
individual, any such capital gain will be treated as short-term capital
gain if the shares were held for not more than 12 months, capital gain
taxable at the maximum rate of 28% if such shares were held for more than
12, but not more than 18 months, and capital gain taxable at the maximum
rate of 20% if such shares were held for more than 18 months. In the case
of a corporation, any such capital gain will be treated as long-term
capital gain, taxable at the same rates as ordinary income, if such
shares were held for more than 12 months. Any such capital loss will be
long-term capital loss if the shares have been held for more than one
year. Generally, any loss realized on a sale or exchange will be
disallowed to the extent the shares disposed of are replaced within a
period of 61 days beginning 30 days before and ending 30 days after the
shares are disposed of. Any loss recognized by a shareholder on the sale
of shares of a Portfolio held by the shareholder for six months or less
will be treated for tax purposes as a long-term capital loss to the
extent of any distributions of net capital gains received by the
shareholder with respect to such shares.

         Under certain circumstances (such as the exercise of an exchange
privilege), the tax effect of sales load charges imposed on the purchase
of shares in a regulated investment company is deferred if the
shareholder does not hold the shares for at least 90 days.

         Income received by a Portfolio from sources within foreign
countries may be subject to withholding and other taxes imposed by such
countries. Income tax treaties between certain countries and the United
States may reduce or eliminate such taxes. It is impossible to determine
in advance the effective rate of foreign tax to which a Portfolio will be
subject, since the amount of that Portfolio's assets to be invested in
various countries is not known. It is not anticipated that any Portfolio
(other than the International Equity Portfolio) will qualify to pass
through to its shareholders the ability to claim as a foreign tax credit
their respective shares of foreign taxes paid by such Portfolio. If more
than 50% in value of the Portfolio's total assets at the close of its
taxable year consists of securities of foreign corporations, the
Portfolio will be eligible, and intends, to file an election with the
Internal Revenue

                                   B-58

<PAGE>



Service pursuant to which shareholders of the Portfolio will be required
to include their proportionate share of such foreign taxes in their U.S.
income tax returns as gross income, treat such proportionate share as
taxes paid by them, and deduct such proportionate share in computing
their taxable incomes or, alternatively, subject to certain limitations,
and the Portfolio and the shareholders satisfying certain holding period
requirements, use them as foreign tax credits against their U.S. income
taxes. No deductions for foreign taxes, however, may be claimed by
non-corporate shareholders who do not itemize deductions. Of course,
certain retirement accounts which are not subject to tax cannot claim
foreign tax credits on investments in foreign securities held in the
Portfolio. A shareholder that is a nonresident alien individual or a
foreign corporation may be subject to U.S. withholding tax on the income
resulting from the Portfolio's election described in this paragraph but
may not be able to claim a credit or deduction against such U.S. tax for
the foreign taxes treated as having been paid by such shareholder.

         Under the Code, gains or losses attributable to fluctuations in
exchange rates which occur between the time a Portfolio accrues interest
or other receivables or accrues expenses or other liabilities denominated
in a foreign currency and the time such Portfolio actually collects such
receivables or pays such liabilities are treated as ordinary income or
ordinary loss. Similarly, gains or losses on forward foreign currency
exchange contracts, foreign currency gains or losses from futures
contracts that are not "regulated futures contracts" and from unlisted
non-equity options, gains or losses from sale of currencies or
dispositions of debt securities denominated in a foreign currency
attributable to fluctuations in the value of the foreign currency between
the date of acquisition of the security and the date of disposition
generally also are treated as ordinary gain or loss. These gains,
referred to under the Code as "Section 988" gains or losses, increase or
decrease the amount of each Portfolio's investment company taxable income
available to be distributed to its shareholders as ordinary income.
Additionally, if Code Section 988 losses exceed other investment company
taxable income during a taxable year, a Portfolio would not be able to
make any ordinary dividend distributions, and any distributions made in
the same taxable year may be recharacterized as a return of capital to
shareholders, thereby reducing the basis of each shareholder's Portfolio
shares. In certain cases, a Portfolio may be entitled to elect to treat
foreign currency gains on forward or futures contracts, or options
thereon, as capital gains.

         The Code includes special rules applicable to the listed
non-equity options, regulated futures contracts, and options on futures
contracts which a Portfolio may write, purchase or sell. Such options and
contracts are classified as Section 1256 contracts under the Code. The
character of gain or loss resulting from the sale, disposition, closing
out, expiration or other termination of Section 1256 contracts, except
forward foreign currency exchange contracts, is generally treated as
long-term capital gain or loss to the extent of 60% thereof and
short-term capital gain or loss to the extent of 40% thereof ("60/40 gain
or loss"). Such contracts, when held by a Portfolio at the end of a
fiscal year, generally are required to be treated as sold at market value
on the last day of such fiscal year for Federal income tax purposes
("marked-to-market"). Over-the-counter options are not classified as
Section 1256 contracts and are not subject to the marked-to-market rule
or to 60/40 gain or loss treatment. Any gains or losses recognized by a
Portfolio from transactions in over-the-counter options generally
constitute short-term capital gains or losses. When call options written,
or put options purchased, by a Portfolio are exercised, the gain or loss
realized on the sale of the underlying securities may be either
short-term or long-term, depending on the holding period of the
securities. In determining the amount of gain or loss, the sales proceeds
are reduced by the premium paid for the puts or increased by the premium
received for calls.



                                   B-59

<PAGE>



         A substantial portion of each Portfolio's transactions in
options, futures contracts and options on futures contracts, particularly
its hedging transactions, may constitute "straddles" which are defined in
the Code as offsetting positions with respect to personal property. A
straddle consisting of a listed option, futures contract, or option on a
futures contract and of U.S. Government securities would constitute a
"mixed straddle" under the Code. The Code generally provides with respect
to straddles (i) "loss deferral" rules which may postpone recognition for
tax purposes of losses from certain closing purchase transactions or
other dispositions of a position in the straddle to the extent of
unrealized gains in the offsetting position, (ii) "wash sale" rules which
may postpone recognition for tax purposes of losses where a position is
sold and a new offsetting position is acquired within a prescribed
period, (iii) "short sale" rules which may terminate the holding period
of securities owned by a Portfolio when offsetting positions are
established and which may convert certain losses from short-term to
long-term, and (iv) "conversion transaction" rules which recharacterize
capital gains as ordinary income. The Code provides that certain
elections may be made for mixed straddles that can alter the character of
the capital gain or loss recognized upon disposition of positions which
form part of a straddle. Certain other elections also are provided in the
Code; no determination has been reached to make any of these elections.

         Newly-enacted Code Section 1259 will require the recognition of
gain (but not loss) if a Portfolio makes a "constructive sale" of an
appreciated financial position (e.g., stock). A Portfolio generally will
be considered to make a constructive sale of an appreciated financial
position if it sells the same or substantially identical property short,
enters into a futures or forward contract to deliver the same or
substantially identical property, or enters into certain other similar
transactions.

         Each Portfolio may purchase debt securities (such as zero-coupon
or pay-in-kind securities) that contain original issue discount. Original
issue discount that accrues in a taxable year is treated as earned by a
Portfolio and therefore is subject to the distribution requirements of
the Code. Because the original issue discount earned by the Portfolio in
a taxable year may not be represented by cash income, the Portfolio may
have to dispose of other securities and use the proceeds to make
distributions to shareholders.

         A Portfolio may be required to backup withhold U.S. Federal
income tax at the rate of 31% of all taxable distributions payable to
shareholders who fail to provide their correct taxpayer identification
number or fail to make required certifications, or who have been notified
by the Internal Revenue Service that they are subject to backup
withholding. Backup withholding is not an additional tax. Any amounts
withheld may be credited against a shareholder's U.S. Federal income tax
liability. Any distributions of net investment income or short-term
capital gains made to a foreign shareholder will be subject to U.S.
withholding tax of 30% (or a lower treaty rate if applicable to such
shareholder).

         Each of the Large-Cap Growth Portfolio, Aggressive Growth
Portfolio and International Equity Portfolio may, from time to time,
invest in "passive foreign investment companies" (PFICs). A PFIC is a
foreign corporation that, in general, meets either of the following
tests: (a) at least 75% of its gross income is passive or (b) an average
of at least 50% of its assets produce, or are held for the production of,
passive income. If any such Portfolio acquires and holds stock in a PFIC
beyond the end of the year of its acquisition, the Portfolio will be
subject to federal income tax on a portion of any "excess distribution"
received on the stock or of any gain from disposition of the stock
(collectively, PFIC income), plus interest thereon, even if the Portfolio
distributes the PFIC income as a taxable dividend to its shareholders.
The balance of the PFIC income will be included in the Portfolio's
investment company taxable income and, accordingly, will not be taxable
to it to the extent that income is distributed to its

                                   B-60

<PAGE>



shareholders. If the election is in effect, at the end of the Fund's
taxable year, the Portfolio will recognize the amount of gains, if any,
with respect to PFIC stock. Recently enacted legislation codified this
"mark-to-market" election effective for tax years beginning after
December 31, 1997. Any gains resulting from such elections will be
treated as ordinary income. No loss will be recognized on PFIC stock.
Alternatively, the Portfolio may elect to treat any PFIC in which it
invests as a "qualified electing fund," in which case, in lieu of the
foregoing tax and interest obligation, the Portfolio will be required to
include in income each year its pro rata share of the qualified electing
fund's annual ordinary earnings and net capital gain, even if they are
not distributed to the Portfolio; those amounts would be subject to the
distribution requirements applicable to the Portfolio described above. It
may be very difficult, if not impossible, to make this election because
of certain requirements thereof.

         Each of the Large-Cap Blend and Value Portfolios may invest in
real estate investment trusts ("REITs") that hold residual interests in
real estate mortgage investment conduits ("REMICs"). Under Treasury
regulations that have not yet been issued, but may apply retroactively, a
portion of the Portfolio's income from a REIT that is attributable to the
REIT's residual interest in a REMIC (referred to in the Code as an
"excess inclusion") will be subject to federal income tax. These
regulations are also expected to provide that excess inclusion income of
a regulated investment company, such as the Fund, will be allocated to
shareholders of the regulated investment company in proportion to the
dividends received by such shareholders, with the same consequences as if
the shareholders held the related REMIC residual interest directly. In
general, excess inclusion income allocated to shareholders (i) cannot be
offset by net operating losses (subject to a limited exception for
certain thrift institutions), (ii) will constitute unrelated business
taxable income to entities (including a qualified pension plan, an
individual retirement account, a 401(k) plan, a Keogh plan or other
tax-exempt entity) subject to tax on unrelated business income, thereby
potentially requiring such an entity that is allocated excess inclusion
income, and otherwise might not be required to file a tax return, to file
a tax return and pay tax on such income, and (iii) in the case of a
foreign shareholder, will not qualify for any reduction in U.S. federal
withholding tax. In addition, if at any time during any taxable year a
"disqualified organization" (as defined in the Code) is a record holder
of a share in a regulated investment company, then the regulated
investment company will be subject to a tax equal to that portion of its
excess inclusion income for the taxable year that is allocable to the
disqualified organization, multiplied by the highest federal income tax
rate imposed on corporations.

         The foregoing is a general and abbreviated summary of the
applicable provisions of the Code and Treasury regulations currently in
effect. Shareholders are urged to consult their tax advisors regarding
specific questions as to Federal, state and local taxes. In addition,
foreign investors should consult with their own tax advisors regarding
the particular tax consequences to them of an investment in each
Portfolio. Qualification as a regulated investment company under the Code
for tax purposes does not entail government supervision of management and
investment policies.

                             RETIREMENT PLANS

         Shares of each Portfolio are eligible to be purchased in
conjunction with various types of qualified retirement plans. The summary
below is only a brief description of the Federal income tax laws for each
plan and does not purport to be complete. Further information or an
application to invest in shares of a Portfolio by establishing any of the
retirement plans described below may be obtained by calling Retirement
Plans at (800) 858-8850. However, it is recommended that a shareholder
considering any retirement plan consult a tax adviser before
participating.

Pension and Profit-Sharing Plans. Sections 401(a) and 401(k) of the Code
permit business employers and certain associations to establish pension
and profit sharing plans for employees. Shares of a Portfolio may be
purchased by those who would have been covered under the rules governing
old H.R. 10 (Keogh) Plans, as well as by corporate plans. Each business
retirement plan provides tax advantages for owners and participants.
Contributions made by the employer are tax-deductible, and participants
do not pay taxes on contributions or earnings until withdrawn.

Tax-Sheltered Custodial Accounts. Section 403(b)(7) of the Code permits
public school employees and employees of certain types of charitable,
educational and scientific organizations specified in Section 501(c)(3)
of the Code, to purchase shares of a Portfolio and, subject to certain
limitations, exclude the amount of purchase payments from gross income
for tax purposes.

Individual Retirement Accounts (IRA). Section 408 of the Code permits
eligible individuals to contribute to an individual retirement program,
including Simplified Employee Pension Plans, commonly referred to as
SEP-IRA. Section 408A of the Code treats Roth IRAs as IRAs subject to
certain special rules applicable thereto. IRAs are subject to limitations
with respect to the amount that may be contributed, the eligibility of
individuals to make contributions, the amount if any, entitled to be
contributed on a deductible basis, and the time in which distributions
would be allowed to commence. In addition, certain distributions from
some other types of retirement plans may be placed on a tax-deferred
basis in an IRA.

Salary Reduction Simplified Employee Pension (SARSEP). This plan was
introduced by a provision of the Tax Reform Act of 1986 as a unique way
for small employers to provide the benefit of retirement planning for
their employees. Contributions are deducted from the employee's paycheck
before tax deductions and are deposited into an IRA by the employer.
These contributions are not included in the employee's income and
therefore are not reported or deducted on his or her tax return.

Savings Incentive Match Plan for Employees ("SIMPLE IRA"). This plan was
introduced by a provision of the Small Business Job Protection Act of
1996 to provide small employers with a simplified tax-favored retirement
plan. Contributions are deducted from the employee's paycheck before
taxes and are deposited into a SIMPLE IRA by the employer, who must make
either matching contributions or nonelective contributions. Contributions
are tax-deductible for the employer and participants do not pay taxes on
contributions on earnings until they are withdrawn.

Roth IRA. This plan, introduced by Section 302 of the Taxpayer Relief Act
of 1997, generally permits individuals with adjusted gross income of up
to $95,000, and married couples with joint adjusted gross income of up to
$150,000, to contribute to a "Roth IRA." Contributions are not
tax-deductible, but

                                   B-62

<PAGE>



distribution of assets (contributions and earnings) held in the account
for at least five years may be distributed tax-free under certain
qualifying conditions.

Education IRA. Established by the Taxpayer Relief Act of 1997, under
Section 530 of the Code, this plan permits individuals to contribute to
an IRA on behalf of any child under the age of 18. Contributions are not
tax-deductible but distributions are tax-free if used for qualified
educational expenses.

                          DESCRIPTION OF SHARES

         Ownership of the Fund is represented by shares of common stock.
The total number of shares which the Fund has authority to issue is one
billion (1,000,000,000) shares of common stock (par value $0.0001 per
share), amounting in aggregate par value to one hundred thousand dollars
($100,000.00).

   
         Currently, nine Portfolios of shares of the Fund have been
authorized pursuant to the Fund's Articles of Incorporation ("Articles"):
the Large-Cap Growth Portfolio, the Mid-Cap Growth Portfolio, the
Aggressive Growth Portfolio, the Large-Cap Blend Portfolio, the Large-Cap
Value Portfolio, the Value Portfolio, the Small-Cap Value Portfolio,
International Equity Portfolio and the Focus Portfolio. Except for the
Focus Portfolio, each Portfolio has been divided into four classes of
shares, designated as Class A, Class B, Class C and Class Z. The
Directors may authorize the creation of additional Portfolios of shares
so as to be able to offer to investors additional investment portfolios
within the Fund that would operate independently from the Fund's present
portfolios, or to distinguish among shareholders, as may be necessary, to
comply with future regulations or other unforeseen circumstances. Each
Portfolio of the Fund's shares represents the interests of the
shareholders of that Portfolio in a particular portfolio of Fund assets.
In addition, the Directors may authorize the creation of additional
classes of shares in the future, which may have fee structures different
from those of existing classes and/or may be offered only to certain
qualified investors.
    

         Shareholders are entitled to a full vote for each full share
held. The Directors have terms of unlimited duration (subject to certain
removal procedures) and have the power to alter the number of Directors,
and appoint their own successors, provided that at all times at least a
majority of the Directors have been elected by shareholders. The voting
rights of shareholders are not cumulative, so that holders of more than
50% of the shares voting can, if they choose, elect all Directors being
elected, while the holders of the remaining shares would be unable to
elect any Directors. Although the Fund need not hold annual meetings of
shareholders, the Directors may call special meetings of shareholders for
action by shareholder vote as may be required by the 1940 Act or the
Articles. Also, a shareholders meeting must be called, if so requested in
writing by the holders of record of 10% or more of the outstanding shares
of the Fund. In addition, the Directors may be removed by the action of
the holders of record of two-thirds or more of the outstanding shares.
All Portfolios of shares will vote with respect to certain matters, such
as election of Directors. When all Portfolios are not affected by a
matter to be voted upon, such as approval of investment advisory
agreements or changes in a Portfolio's policies, only shareholders of the
Portfolios affected by the matter may be entitled to vote.

         The classes of shares of a given Portfolio are identical in all
respects, except that (i) each class may bear differing amounts of
certain class-specific expenses, (ii) Class A shares are subject to an
initial sales charge, a distribution fee and an ongoing account
maintenance and service fee, (iii) Class B shares are subject to a CDSC,
a distribution fee and an ongoing account maintenance and service fee,
(iv) Class B shares convert automatically to Class A shares on the first
business day of the month seven years after

                                   B-63

<PAGE>

the purchase of such Class B Shares, (v) Class C shares are subject to a
CDSC, and an ongoing account maintenance and service fee, (vi) each class
has voting rights on matters that pertain to the Rule 12b-1 plan adopted
with respect to such class, except that under certain circumstances, the
holders of Class B shares may be entitled to vote on material changes to
the Class A Rule 12b-1 plan, and (vii) each class of shares will be
exchangeable only into the same class of shares of any other Portfolio or
other SunAmerica Funds that offer that class. All shares of the Fund
issued and outstanding and all shares offered by the Prospectus when
issued, are fully paid and non-assessable. Shares have no preemptive or
other subscription rights and are freely transferable on the books of the
Fund. In addition, shares have no conversion rights, except as described
above.

         The Articles provide that no Director, officer, employee or
agent of the Fund is liable to the Fund or to a shareholder, nor is any
Director, officer, employee or agent liable to any third persons in
connection with the affairs of the Fund, except as such liability may
arise from his or its own bad faith, willful misfeasance, gross
negligence or reckless disregard of his duties. It also provides that all
third persons shall look solely to the Fund's property for satisfaction
of claims arising in connection with the affairs of the Fund. With the
exceptions stated, the Articles provides that a Director, officer,
employee or agent is entitled to be indemnified against all liability in
connection with the affairs of the Fund. The Fund shall continue, without
limitation of time, subject to the provisions in the Articles concerning
termination by action of the shareholders.

                          ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

Computation of Offering Price per Share

         The following is the offering price calculation for each Class
of shares of the Portfolios. The Class A, Class B and Class C
calculations are based on the value of each Portfolio's net assets and
number of shares outstanding on October 31, 1997.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- October 31, 1997
 

Note 1. Organization
 
Style Select Series, Inc. (the 'Fund') is an open-end diversified management
investment company organized as a Maryland corporation on July 3, 1996. The Fund
is managed by SunAmerica Asset Management Corp. ('SunAmerica'), an indirect
wholly-owned subsidiary of SunAmerica Inc. The Fund currently offers eight
separate investment portfolios (each, a 'Portfolio'). The assets of each
Portfolio are normally allocated among at least three investment advisers (each,
an 'Adviser'), each of which will be independently responsible for advising its
respective portion of the Portfolio's assets. The investment objectives for each
of the Portfolios are as follows:
 
Large-Cap Growth Portfolio seeks long-term growth of capital by investing
generally in equity securities of large-sized companies.
 
Mid-Cap Growth Portfolio seeks long-term growth of capital by investing
primarily in equity securities which have a market capitalization of $1 billion
to $5 billion.
 
Aggressive Growth Portfolio seeks long-term growth of capital by investing
primarily in equity securities which have a market capitalization of less than
$1 billion.
 
Large-Cap Blend Portfolio seeks long-term growth of capital and a reasonable
level of current income by investing generally in equity securities of
large-sized companies.
 
Large-Cap Value Portfolio seeks long-term growth of capital by investing in
equity securities of large-sized companies using a 'value' style of investing.
 
Value Portfolio seeks long-term growth of capital by investing primarily in
equity securities using a 'value' style of investing.
 
Small-Cap Value Portfolio seeks long-term growth of capital by investing in
equity securities of small-sized companies using a 'value' style of investing.
 
International Equity Portfolio seeks long-term growth of capital by investing in
equity securities of issuers in countries other than the United States.
 
Each Portfolio currently offers three classes of shares. Class A shares are
offered at net asset value per share plus an initial sales charge. Class B
shares are offered without an initial sales charge, although a declining
contingent sales charge may be imposed on redemptions made within six years of
purchase. Any purchases of Class A shares in excess of $1,000,000 will be
subject to a contingent deferred sales charge on redemptions made within one
year of purchase. Class B shares of each Portfolio will convert automatically to
Class A shares on the first business day of the month after seven years from the
issuance of such Class B shares and at such time will be subject to the lower
distribution fee applicable to Class A shares. Class C shares are offered at net
asset value, although they may be subject to a contingent deferred sales charge
on redemptions made within one year of purchase. Each class of shares bears the
same voting, dividend, liquidation and other rights and conditions and each
makes distribution and account maintenance and service fee payments under the
distribution plans pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the Investment Company Act of

1940 (the '1940 Act'), except that Class B shares and Class C shares are subject
to higher distribution fee rates.
 
Note 2. Reorganization
 
On September 29, 1997, International Equity Portfolio acquired all of the assets
and liabilities of SunAmerica Global Balanced Fund ('Global Balanced Fund'), a
regulated investment company registered under the 1940 Act. The agreement was
adopted as a tax-free reorganization of Global Balanced Fund. In exchange for
all of the assets of Global Balanced Fund, International Equity Portfolio issued
495,830 Class A shares and 1,063,431 Class B shares at net asset values of
$13.50 and $13.42, respectively, to Class A shareholders and Class B

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- October 31, 1997 -- (continued)
shareholders of Global Balanced Fund. As of the close of business on September
29, 1997, the total net assets of Global Balanced were $20,964,949 (including
$1,218,731 of unrealized appreciation on investments and $1,619 of unrealized
depreciation of foreign currency). The net assets of International Equity
Portfolio were $56,392,003 on September 29, 1997.
 
Note 3. Significant Accounting Policies
 
The preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that
affect the reported amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Actual
results could differ from these estimates. The following is a summary of the
significant accounting policies followed by the Portfolios in the preparation of
their financial statements:
 
SECURITY VALUATIONS: Securities that are actively traded in the over-the-counter
market, including listed securities for which the primary market is believed by
the Adviser to be over-the-counter, are valued at the quoted bid price provided
by principal market makers. Securities listed on the New York Stock Exchange
('NYSE') or other national securities exchanges, are valued on the basis of the
last sale price on the exchange on which they are primarily traded. If there is
no sale on that day, then securities are valued at the closing bid price on the
NYSE or other primary exchange for that day. However, if the last sale price on
the NYSE is different than the last sale price on any other exchange, the NYSE
price is used. Securities that are traded on foreign exchanges are ordinarily
valued at the last quoted sales price available before the time when the assets
are valued. If a security's price is available from more than one foreign
exchange, a Portfolio uses the exchange that is the primary market for the
security. Values of portfolio securities primarily traded on foreign exchanges
are already translated into U.S. dollars when received from a quotation service.
Options traded on national securities exchanges are valued as of the close of
the exchange on which they are traded. Futures and options traded on commodities
exchanges are valued at their last sale price as of the close of such exchange.
The Portfolios may make use of a pricing service in the determination of their
net asset values. Securities for which market quotations are not readily
available and other assets are valued at fair value as determined pursuant to
procedures adopted in good faith by the Directors. Short-term investments which

mature in less than 60 days are valued at amortized cost, if their original
maturity was 60 days or less, or by amortizing their value on the 61st day prior
to maturity, if their original term to maturity exceeded 60 days.
 
REPURCHASE AGREEMENTS: The Portfolios, along with other affiliated registered
investment companies, may transfer uninvested cash balances into a single joint
account, the daily aggregate balance of which is invested in one or more
repurchase agreements collateralized by U.S. Treasury or federal agency
obligations. The Portfolios' custodian takes possession of the collateral
pledged for investments in such repurchase agreements. The underlying collateral
is valued daily on a mark to market basis to ensure that the value, at the time
the agreement is entered into, is equal to at least 102% of the repurchase
price, including accrued interest. In the event of default of the obligation to
repurchase, a Portfolio has the right to liquidate the collateral and apply the
proceeds in satisfaction of the obligation. If the seller defaults and the value
of the collateral declines or if bankruptcy proceedings are commenced with
respect to the seller of the security, realization of the collateral by the
Portfolio may be delayed or limited.
 
Pursuant to exemptive relief granted by the Securities and Exchange Commission,
the Portfolios are permitted to participate in joint repurchase agreement
transactions with other affiliated mutual funds.
 
As of October 31, 1997, the Aggressive Growth Portfolio and the Large-Cap Blend
Portfolio had a 2.9% and 0.3% undivided interest, respectively, which
represented $2,661,000 and $273,000, respectively, in principal

amount in a joint repurchase agreement with PaineWebber, Inc. As of such date,
the repurchase agreement in the joint account and the collateral therefore were
as follows:
 
PaineWebber, Inc. Repurchase Agreement, 5.60% dated 10/31/97, in the principal
amount of $91,372,000 repurchase price $91,414,640 due 11/03/97, collateralized
by $93,235,000 U.S. Treasury Notes 5.625% due 10/31/99, approximate aggregate
value $93,249,918.
 
As of October 31, 1997, the Large Cap Value Portfolio had a 0.2% undivided
interest which represented $130,000 in principal amount in a joint repurchase
agreement with PaineWebber, Inc. As of such date, the repurchase agreement in
the joint account and the collateral therefore were as follows:
 
PaineWebber, Inc. Repurchase Agreement 5.67% dated 10/31/97, in the principal
amount of $65,665,000 repurchase price $65,696,027 due 11/03/97 collateralized
by $15,710,000 U.S. Treasury Notes 5.625% due 1/31/98 and $50,000,000 U.S.
Treasury Note 5.375% due 5/31/98, approximate aggregate value $67,016,362.
 
SECURITIES TRANSACTIONS, INVESTMENT INCOME, EXPENSES, DIVIDENDS AND
DISTRIBUTIONS TO SHAREHOLDERS: Securities transactions are recorded on a trade
date basis. Realized gains and losses on sales of investments are calculated on
the identified cost basis. Interest income is recorded on the accrual basis;

dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date. Portfolios investing in
foreign securities may be subject to taxes imposed by countries in which they
invest. Such taxes are generally based on either income or gains earned or
repatriated. The Portfolios accrue such taxes when the related income is earned.
The Portfolios amortize premiums and accrue discounts including original issue
discounts as required for federal income tax purposes.
 
Net investment income, other than class specific expenses and realized and
unrealized gains and losses, is allocated daily to each class of shares based
upon the relative net asset value of outstanding shares of each class of shares
at the beginning of the day (after adjusting for the current capital shares
activity of the respective class).
 
Expenses common to all Portfolios, not directly related to individual
Portfolios, are allocated among the Portfolios based upon their relative net
asset value or other appropriate methods.
 
Dividends from net investment income and capital gain distributions, if any, are
paid annually. The Portfolios record dividends and distributions to their
shareholders on the ex-dividend date. The amount of dividends and distributions
from net investment income and net realized capital gains are determined and
presented in accordance with federal income tax regulations, which may differ
from generally accepted accounting principles. These 'book/tax' differences are
either considered temporary or permanent in nature. To the extent these
differences are permanent in nature, such amounts are reclassified within the
capital accounts based on their federal tax-basis treatment; temporary
differences do not require reclassification. Net investment income/loss, net
realized gain/loss, and net assets were not affected.
 
For the period ended October 31, 1997, the following reclassifications arising
from book/tax differences were primarily the result of reclassifications due to
net operating losses.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- October 31, 1997 -- (continued)
 
FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSACTION: The books and records of the Fund are maintained
in U.S. dollars. Assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies and
commitments under forward foreign currency contracts are translated into U.S.
dollars at the mean of the quoted bid and asked prices of such currencies
against the U.S. dollar.
 
The Fund does not isolate that portion of the results of operations arising as a
result of changes in the foreign exchange rates from the changes in the market
prices of securities held at fiscal year-end. Similarly, the Fund does not
isolate the effect of changes in foreign exchange rates from the changes in the
market prices of portfolio securities sold during the year.
 
Realized foreign exchange gains and losses on other assets and liabilities and
change in unrealized foreign exchange gains and losses on other assets and
liabilities include foreign exchange gains and losses from currency gains or
losses between the trade and settlement dates of securities transactions, the
difference between the amounts of interest, dividends and foreign withholding
taxes recorded on a Portfolio's books and the U.S. dollar equivalent amounts
actually received or paid and changes in the unrealized foreign exchange gains
and losses relating to other assets and liabilities arising as a result of
changes in the exchange rate.
 
FORWARD FOREIGN CURRENCY CONTRACTS: Certain portfolios may enter into forward
foreign currency contracts ('forward contracts') to attempt to protect
securities and related receivables and payables against changes in future
foreign exchange rates or to enhance return. A forward contract is an agreement
between two parties to buy or sell currency at a set price on a future date. The
market value of the contract will fluctuate with changes in currency exchange
rates. The contract is marked to market daily using the forward rate and the
change in market value is recorded by the Portfolio as unrealized gain or loss.
On settlement date, the Portfolio records realized foreign exchange gains or
losses when the contract is closed equal to the difference between the value of
the contract at the time it was opened and the value at the time it was closed.
Risks may arise upon entering into these contracts from the potential inability
of counterparties to meet the terms of their contracts and from unanticipated
movements in the value of a foreign currency relative to the U.S. dollar.
Forward contracts involve elements of risk in excess of the amounts reflected in
the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. The Trust bears the risk of an
unfavorable change in the foreign exchange rate underlying the forward contract.
 
OPTIONS: The premium paid by a Portfolio for the purchase of a call or a put
option is included in the Portfolio's Statement of Assets and Liabilities as an
investment and subsequently marked to market to reflect the current market value
of the option. When a Portfolio writes a call or a put option, an amount equal
to the premium received by the Portfolio is included in the Portfolio's
Statement of Assets and Liabilities as a liability and is subsequently marked to
market to reflect the current market value of the option written. If an option
which the Portfolio has written either expires on its stipulated expiration
date, or if the Portfolio enters into a closing purchase transaction, the
Portfolio realizes a gain (or loss if the cost of a closing purchase transaction
exceeds the premium received when the option was written) without regard to any

unrealized gain or loss on the underlying security, and the liability related to
such option is extinguished. If a call option which the Portfolio has written is
exercised, the Portfolio realizes a capital gain or loss from the sale of the
underlying security and the proceeds from such sale are increased by the premium
originally received. If a put option which the Portfolio has written is
exercised, the amount of the premium originally received reduces the cost basis
of the security which the Portfolio purchased upon exercise of the option.
 
ORGANIZATIONAL EXPENSES: Costs incurred by SAAMCo in connection with the
organization of each Portfolio are being amortized on a straight line basis by
the Portfolios over a period not to exceed 60 months from the date the
Portfolios commenced operations.

the Adviser. Through October 31, 1997, SunAmerica paid the Advisers for each
Portfolio the following, expressed as an annual percentage of the average daily
net assets of each Portfolio: Large-Cap Growth Portfolio, .48%; Mid-Cap Growth
Portfolio, .50%; Aggressive Growth Portfolio, .37%; Large-Cap Blend Portfolio,
 .32%; Large-Cap Value Portfolio, .41%; Value Portfolio, .50%; Small-Cap Value
Portfolio, .55% and International Equity Portfolio, .65%.
 
SunAmerica has voluntarily agreed to waive fees or reimburse expenses, if
necessary, to keep annual operating expenses at or below the following
percentages of each Portfolio's average net assets: Large-Cap Growth Portfolio,
Mid-Cap Growth Portfolio, Aggressive Growth Portfolio, Large-Cap Blend
Portfolio, Large-Cap Value Portfolio, Value Portfolio and Small-Cap Value
Portfolio 1.78% for Class A shares and 2.43% for Class B shares and Class C
shares, respectively. International Equity Portfolio 2.03% for Class A shares

The Fund, on behalf of each Portfolio, has entered into a Distribution Agreement
with SunAmerica Capital Services, Inc. ('SACS' or the 'Distributor'), an
indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of SunAmerica Inc. Each Portfolio has adopted a
Distribution Plan (the 'Plan') in accordance with the provisions of Rule 12b-1
under the Act. Rule 12b-1 under the Act permits an investment company directly
or indirectly to pay expenses associated with the distribution of its shares
('distribution expenses') in accordance with a plan adopted by the investment
company's Board of Directors. Pursuant to such rule, the Directors and the
shareholders of each class of shares of each Portfolio have adopted Distribution
Plans hereinafter referred to as the 'Class A Plan,' the 'Class B Plan' and the
'Class C Plan.' In adopting the Class A Plan, the Class B Plan and the Class C
Plan, the Directors determined that there was a reasonable likelihood that each
such Plan would benefit the Fund and the shareholders of the respective class.
The sales charge and distribution fees of a particular class will not be used to
subsidize the sale of shares of any other class.
 
Under the Class A Plan, the Distributor receives payments from a Portfolio at an
annual rate of up to 0.10% of average daily net assets of such Portfolio's Class
A shares to compensate the Distributor and certain securities firms for
providing sales and promotional activities for distributing that class of
shares. Under the Class B and Class C Plans, the Distributor may receive
payments from a Portfolio at the annual rate of up to 0.75% of the average daily
net assets of such Portfolio's Class B and Class C shares, respectively, to
compensate the Distributor and certain securities firms for providing sales and
promotional activities for distributing each such class of shares. The

distribution costs for which the Distributor may be reimbursed out of such
distribution fees include fees paid to broker-dealers that have sold Portfolio
shares, commissions, and other expenses such as those incurred for sales
literature, prospectus printing and distribution and compensation to
wholesalers. It is possible that in any given year the amount paid to the
Distributor under the Class A Plan, Class B Plan or Class C Plan may exceed the
Distributor's distribution costs as described above. The Distribution Plans also
provide that each class of shares of each Portfolio may also pay the Distributor
an account maintenance and service fee up to an annual rate of 0.25% of the
average daily net assets of such class of shares for payments to broker-dealers
for providing continuing account maintenance. Accordingly, through October 31,
1997, SACS received fees (see Statement of Operations) based upon the
aforementioned rates.

SACS receives sales charges on each Portfolio's Class A shares, portions of
which are reallowed to affiliated broker-dealers and non-affiliated
broker-dealers. SACS also receives the proceeds of contingent deferred sales
charges paid by investors in connection with certain redemptions of each
Portfolio's Class B and Class C shares. SACS has advised the Portfolios that for
the period ended October 31, 1997, the proceeds received from Class A sales (and
paid out to affiliated and non-affiliated broker-dealers), Class B and Class C

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- October 31, 1997 -- (continued)
 
Note 10. Directors' Retirement Plan
 
The Directors (and Trustees) of the SunAmerica Family of Mutual Funds have
adopted the SunAmerica Disinterested Trustees' and Directors' Retirement Plan
(the 'Retirement Plan') effective January 1, 1993 for the unafilliated
Directors. The Retirement Plan provides generally that if a disinterested
Director who has at least 10 years of consecutive service as a Disinterested
Director of any of the SunAmerica mutual funds (an 'Eligible Director') retires
after reaching age 60 but before age 70 or dies while a Director, such person
will be eligible to receive a retirement or death benefit from each SunAmerica
mutual fund with respect to which he or she is an Eligible Director. As of each
birthday, prior to the 70th birthday, but in no event for a period greater than
10 years, each Eligible Director will be credited with an amount equal to 50% of
his or her regular fees (excluding committee fees) for services as a
Disinterested Director of each SunAmerica mutual fund for the calendar year in
which such birthday occurs. In addition, an amount equal to 8.5% of any amounts
credited under the preceding clause during prior years, is added to each
Eligible Director's account until such Eligible Trustee reaches his or her 70th
birthday. An Eligible Director may receive any benefits payable under the
Retirement Plan, at his or her election, either in one lump sum or in up to

fifteen annual installments. As of October 31, 1997, Mid-Cap Growth Portfolio,
Aggressive Growth Portfolio, Value Portfolio and International Equity Portfolio
had accrued $643, $761, $680 and $637, respectively, for the Retirement Plan,
which is included in accrued expenses on the Statement of Assets and
Liabilities, and as of October 31, 1997 expensed $643, $761, $680 and $637,
respectively, for the Retirement Plan, which is included in Directors' fees and
expenses on the Statement of Operations.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS
 
TO THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS AND SHAREHOLDERS OF STYLE SELECT SERIES, INC.
 
In our opinion, the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities, including
the portfolios of investments, and the related statements of operations and of
changes in net assets and the financial highlights present fairly, in all
material respects, the financial position of Large-Cap Growth Portfolio, Mid-Cap
Growth Portfolio, Aggressive Growth Portfolio, Large-Cap Blend Portfolio,
Large-Cap Value Portfolio, Value Portfolio, Small-Cap Value Portfolio and
International Equity Portfolio (constituting the eight portfolios of Style
Select Series, Inc., hereafter referred to as the 'Fund') at October 31, 1997,
and the results of each of their operations, the changes in each of their net
assets and the financial highlights for each of the periods indicated, in
conformity with generally accepted accounting principles. These financial
statements and financial highlights (hereafter referred to as 'financial
statements') are the responsibility of the Fund's management; our responsibility
is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit. We
conducted our audit of these financial statements in accordance with generally
accepted auditing standards which require that we plan and perform the audit to
obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of
material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence
supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing
the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and
evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our
audit, which included confirmation of securities at October 31, 1997 by
correspondence with the custodian and brokers and the application of alternative
auditing procedures where confirmations from brokers were not received, provides
a reasonable basis for the opinion expressed above.

               CORPORATE BOND AND COMMERCIAL PAPER RATINGS

Description of Moody's Investors Service's Corporate Ratings

         Aaa      Bonds which are rated Aaa are judged to be of the best
                  quality. They carry the smallest degree of investment
                  risk and are generally referred to as "gilt edge."
                  Interest payments are protected by a large or by an
                  exceptionally stable margin and principal is secure.
                  While the various protective elements are likely to
                  change, such changes as can be visualized are most
                  unlikely to impair the fundamentally strong position of
                  such issues.

         Aa       Bonds which are rated Aa are judged to be of high
                  quality by all standards. Together with the Aaa group
                  they comprise what are generally known as high grade
                  bonds. They are rated lower than the best bonds because
                  margins of protection may not be as large as in Aaa
                  securities or fluctuation of protective elements may be
                  of greater amplitude or there may be other elements
                  present which make the long-term risks appear somewhat
                  larger than in Aaa securities.

         A        Bonds which are rated A possess many favorable
                  investment attributes and are to be considered as upper
                  medium grade obligations. Factors giving security to
                  principal and interest are considered adequate, but
                  elements may be present which suggest a susceptibility
                  to impairment sometime in the future.

         Baa      Bonds which are rated Baa are considered as medium
                  grade obligations; i.e., they are neither highly
                  protected nor poorly secured. Interest payments and
                  principal security appear adequate for the present but
                  certain protective elements may be lacking or may be
                  characteristically unreliable over any great length of
                  time. Such bonds lack outstanding investment
                  characteristics and in fact have speculative
                  characteristics as well.

         Ba       Bonds which are rated Ba are judged to have speculative
                  elements; their future cannot be considered as well
                  assured. Often the protection of interest and principal
                  payments may be very moderate, and therefore not well
                  safeguarded during both good and bad times over the
                  future. Uncertainty of position characterizes bonds in
                  this class.

         B        Bonds which are rated B generally lack characteristics
                  of desirable investments. Assurance of interest and
                  principal payments or of maintenance of other terms of
                  the contract over any long period of time may be small.

         Caa      Bonds which are rated Caa are of poor standing. Such
                  issues may be in default or there may be present
                  elements of danger with respect to principal or
                  interest.


                                Appendix-1

<PAGE>



         Ca       Bonds which are rated Ca represent obligations which
                  are speculative in a high degree. Such issues are often
                  in default or have other marked shortcomings.

         C        Bonds which are rated C are the lowest rated class of
                  bonds, and issues so rated can be regarded as having
                  extremely poor prospects of ever attaining any real
                  investment standing.

         Note: Moody's may apply numerical modifiers 1, 2 and 3 in each
generic rating classification from Aa through B in its corporate bond
rating system. The modifier 1 indicates that the security ranks in the
higher end of its generic rating category; the modifier 2 indicates a
mid-range ranking; and the modifier 3 indicates that the issue ranks in
the lower end of the generic rating category.

Description of Moody's Commercial Paper Ratings

         The term "commercial paper" as used by Moody's means promissory
obligations not having an original maturity in excess of nine months.
Moody's makes no representations as to whether such commercial paper is
by any other definition "commercial paper" or is exempt from registration
under the Securities Act.

         Moody's commercial paper ratings are opinions of the ability of
issuers to repay punctually promissory obligations not having an original
maturity in excess of nine months. Moody's makes no representation that
such obligations are exempt from registration under the Securities Act,
nor does it represent that any specific note is a valid obligation of a
rated issuer or issued in conformity with any applicable law. Moody's
employs the following three designations, all judged to be investment
grade, to indicate the relative repayment capacity of rated issuers:

         Issuers rated Prime-1 (or related supporting institutions) have
a superior capacity for repayment of short-term promissory obligations.
Prime-1 repayment capacity will normally be evidenced by the following
characteristics:

         --  Leading market positions in well established industries
         --  High rates of return on funds employed
         --  Conservative capitalization structures with moderate reliance 
             on debt and ample asset protection
         --  Broad margins in earnings coverage of fixed financial charges 
             and high internal cash generation
         --  Well established access to a range of financial markets and
             assured sources of alternate liquidity.

         Issuers rated Prime-2 (or related supporting institutions) have
a strong capacity for repayment of short-term promissory obligations.
This will normally be evidenced by many of the characteristics cited
above but to a lesser degree. Earnings trends and coverage ratios, while
sound, will be more subject to

                                Appendix-2

<PAGE>



variation. Capitalization characteristics, while still appropriate, may
be more affected by external conditions. Ample alternate liquidity is
maintained.

         Issuers rated Prime-3 (or related supporting institutions) have
an acceptable capacity for repayment of short-term promissory
obligations. The effect of industry characteristics and market
composition may be more pronounced. Variability in earnings and
profitability may result in changes in level of debt protection
measurements and the requirement for relatively high financial leverage.
Adequate alternate liquidity is maintained.

         Issuers rated Not Prime do not fall within any of the Prime
rating categories.

         If an issuer represents to Moody's that its commercial paper
obligations are supported by the credit of another entity or entities,
then the name or names of such supporting entity or entities are listed
within parentheses beneath the name of the issuer, or there is a footnote
referring the reader to another page for the name or names of the
supporting entity or entities. In assigning ratings to such issuers,
Moody's evaluates the financial strength of the indicated affiliated
corporations, commercial banks, insurance companies, foreign governments
or other entities, but only as one factor in the total rating assessment.
Moody's makes no representation and gives no opinion on the legal
validity or enforceability of any support arrangement. You are cautioned
to review with your counsel any questions regarding particular support
arrangements.

         Among the factors considered by Moody's in assigning ratings are
the following: (1) evaluation of the management of the issuer; (2)
economic evaluation of the issuer's industry or industries and an
appraisal of speculative type risks which may be inherent in certain
areas; (3) evaluation of the issuer's products in relation to competition
and customer acceptance; (4) liquidity; (5) amount and quality of
long-term debt; (6) trend of earnings over a period of ten years; (7)
financial strength of a parent company and the relationships which exist
with the issuer; and (8) recognition by management of obligations which
may be present or may arise as a result of public interest questions and
preparations to meet such obligations.

Description of Standard & Poor's Corporate Debt Ratings

         A Standards & Poor's corporate or municipal rating is a current
assessment of the creditworthiness of an obligor with respect to a
specific obligation. This assessment may take into consideration obligers
such as guarantors, insurers, or lessees.

         The debt rating is not a recommendation to purchase, sell or
hold a security, inasmuch as it does not comment as to market price or
suitability for a particular investor.

         The ratings are based on current information furnished by the
issuer or obtained by Standard & Poor's from other sources it considers
reliable. Standard & Poor's does not perform an audit in connection with
any rating and may, on occasion, rely on unaudited financial information.
The ratings

                                Appendix-3

<PAGE>



may be changed, suspended or withdrawn as a result of changes in, or
unavailability of, such information, or for other reasons.

         The ratings are based, in varying degrees, on the following
considerations: (1) likelihood of default capacity and willingness of the
obligor as to the timely payment of interest and repayment of principal
in accordance with the terms of the obligation; (2) nature of and
provisions of the obligation; and (3) protection afforded by, and
relative position of, the obligation in the event of bankruptcy,
reorganization or other arrangement under the laws of bankruptcy and
other laws affecting creditors' rights.

         AAA      Debt rated AAA has the highest rating assigned by
                  Standard & Poor's. Capacity to pay interest and repay
                  principal is extremely strong.

         AA       Debt rated AA has a very strong capacity to pay
                  interest and repay principal and differs from the
                  highest-rated issues only in small degree.

         A        Debt rated A has a strong capacity to pay interest and
                  repay principal although it is somewhat more
                  susceptible to the adverse effects of changes in
                  circumstances and economic conditions than debt in
                  higher-rated categories.

         BBB      Debt rated BBB is regarded as having an adequate
                  capacity to pay interest and repay principal. Whereas
                  it normally exhibits adequate protection parameters,
                  adverse economic conditions or changing circumstances
                  are more likely to lead to a weakened capacity to pay
                  interest and repay principal for debt in this category
                  than for debt in higher-rated categories.

                  Debt rated BB, B, CCC, CC and C are regarded as having
                  predominantly speculative characteristics with respect
                  to capacity to pay interest and repay principal. BB
                  indicates the least degree of speculation and C the
                  highest degree of speculation. While such debt will
                  likely have some quality and protective
                  characteristics, these are outweighed by large
                  uncertainties or major risk exposure to adverse
                  conditions.

         BB       Debt rated BB has less near-term vulnerability to
                  default than other speculative grade debt. However, it
                  faces major ongoing uncertainties or exposure to
                  adverse business, financial or economic conditions
                  which could lead to inadequate capacity to meet timely
                  interest and principal payment. The BB rating category
                  is also used for debt subordinated to senior debt that
                  is assigned an actual or implied BBB- rating.

         B        Debt rated B has a greater vulnerability to default but
                  presently has the capacity to meet interest payments
                  and principal repayments. Adverse business, financial
                  or economic conditions would likely impair capacity or
                  willingness to pay interest and repay principal. The B
                  rating category is also used for debt subordinated to
                  senior debt that is assigned an actual or implied BB or
                  BB- rating.

                                Appendix-4

<PAGE>



         CCC      Debt rated CCC has a current identifiable vulnerability
                  to default, and is dependent upon favorable business,
                  financial and economic conditions to meet timely
                  payments of interest and repayments of principal. In
                  the event of adverse business, financial or economic
                  conditions, it is not likely to have the capacity to
                  pay interest and repay principal. The CCC rating
                  category is also used for debt subordinated to senior
                  debt that is assigned an actual or implied B or B-
                  rating.

         CC       The rating CC is typically applied to debt subordinated
                  to senior debt which is assigned an actual or implied
                  CCC rating.

         C        The rating C is typically applied to debt subordinated
                  to senior debt which is assigned an actual or implied
                  CCC- debt rating. The C rating may be used to cover a
                  situation where a bankruptcy petition has been filed
                  but debt service payments are continued.

         CI       The rating CI is reserved for income bonds on which no
                  interest is being paid.

         D        Debt rated D is in default. The D rating is assigned on
                  the day an interest or principal payment is missed. The
                  D rating also will be used upon the filing of a
                  bankruptcy petition if debt service payments are
                  jeopardized.

         Plus (+) or minus (-): The ratings of AA to CCC may be modified
         by the addition of a plus or minus sign to show relative
         standing within these ratings categories.

         Provisional ratings: The letter "p" indicates that the rating is
provisional. A provisional rating assumes the successful completion of
the project being financed by the debt being rated and indicates that
payment of debt service requirements is largely or entirely dependent
upon the successful and timely completion of the project. This rating,
however, while addressing credit quality subsequent to completion of the
project, makes no comment on the likelihood or risk of default upon
failure of such completion. The investor should exercise judgment with
respect to such likelihood and risk.

         L        The letter "L" indicates that the rating pertains to
                  the principal amount of those bonds to the extent that
                  the underlying deposit collateral is insured by the
                  Federal Savings & Loan Insurance Corp. or the Federal
                  Deposit Insurance Corp. and interest is adequately
                  collateralized.

         *        Continuance of the rating is contingent upon Standard &
                  Poor's receipt of an executed copy of the escrow
                  agreement or closing documentation confirming
                  investments and cash flows.

         NR       Indicates that no rating has been requested, that there
                  is insufficient information on which to base a rating
                  or that Standard & Poor's does not rate a particular
                  type of obligation as a matter of policy.


                                Appendix-5

<PAGE>



         Debt Obligations of Issuers outside the United States and its
territories are rated on the same basis as domestic corporate and
municipal issues. The ratings measure the credit-worthiness of the
obligor but do not take into account currency exchange and related
uncertainties.

Bond Investment Quality Standards: Under present commercial bank
regulations issued by the Comptroller of the Currency, bonds rated in the
top four categories ("AAA", "AA", "A", "BBB", commonly known as
"investment grade" ratings) are generally regarded as eligible for bank
investment. In addition, the laws of various states governing legal
investments impose certain rating or other standards for obligations
eligible for investment by savings banks, trust companies, insurance
companies and fiduciaries generally.

Description of Standard & Poor's Commercial Paper Ratings.

         A Standard & Poor's commercial paper rating is a current
assessment of the likelihood of timely payment of debt having an original
maturity of not more than 365 days. Ratings are graded into four
categories, ranging from "A" for the highest quality obligations to "D"
for the lowest.

         A        Issues assigned this highest rating are regarded as
                  having the greatest capacity for timely payment. Issues
                  in this category are delineated with the numbers 1, 2
                  and 3 to indicate the relative degree of safety.

         A-1      This designation indicates that the degree of safety
                  regarding timely payment is either overwhelming or very
                  strong. Those issues determined to possess overwhelming
                  safety characteristics are denoted with a plus (+) sign
                  designation.

         A-2      Capacity for timely payment on issues with this
                  designation is strong. However, the relative degree of
                  safety is not as high as for issues designated "A-1".

         A-3      Issues carrying this designation have a satisfactory
                  capacity for timely payment. They are, however,
                  somewhat more vulnerable to the adverse effect of
                  changes in circumstances than obligations carrying the
                  higher designations.

         B        Issues rated "B" are regarded as having only adequate
                  capacity for timely payment. However, such capacity may
                  be damaged by changing conditions or short-term
                  adversities.

         C        This rating is assigned to short-term debt obligations
                  with a doubtful capacity for payment.

Item 27.       Indemnification.

         Article V of the Registrant's By-Laws relating to the
         indemnification of officers and directors is quoted below.

                                ARTICLE V
                             INDEMNIFICATION

         5.01 Indemnification of Directors and Officers. The Corporation
shall indemnify any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be
made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or
proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative
(other than a proceeding by or in the right of the Corporation in which
such person shall have been adjudged to be liable to the Corporation), by
reason of being or having been a director or officer of the Corporation,
or serving or having served at the request of the Corporation as a
director, officer, partner, trustee, employee or agent of another entity
in which the Corporation has an interest as a shareholder, creditor or
otherwise (a "Covered Person"), against all liabilities, including but
not limited to amounts paid in satisfaction of judgments, in compromise
or as fines and penalties, and reasonable expenses (including attorney's
fees) actually incurred by the Covered Person in connection with any such
action, suit or proceeding, except (i) liability in connection with any
proceeding in

                                    5

<PAGE>



which it is determined that (A) the act or omission of the Covered Person
was material to the matter giving rise to the proceeding, and was
committed in bad faith or was the result of active and deliberate
dishonesty, or (B) the Covered Person actually received an improper
personal benefit in money, property or services, or (C) in the case of
any criminal proceeding, the Covered Person had reasonable cause to
believe that the act or omission was unlawful, and (ii) liability to the
Corporation or its security holders to which the Covered Person would
otherwise be subject by reason of willful misfeasance, bad faith, gross
negligence or reckless disregard of the duties involved in the conduct of
his office (any or all of the conduct referred to in clauses (i) and (ii)
being hereinafter referred to as "Disabling Conduct").

         5.02 Procedure for Indemnification. Any indemnification under
Section 5.01 shall (unless ordered by a court) be made by the Corporation
only as authorized for a specific proceeding by (i) a final decision on
the merits by a court or other body before whom the proceeding was
brought that the Covered Person to be indemnified was not liable by
reason of Disabling Conduct, (ii) dismissal of the proceeding against the
Covered Person for insufficiency of evidence of any Disabling Conduct, or
(iii) a reasonable determination, based upon a review of the facts, by a
majority of a quorum of the directors who are neither "interested
persons" of the Corporation as defined in the Investment Company Act of
1940 nor parties to the proceeding ("Disinterested Non-Party Directors"),
or an independent legal counsel in a written opinion, that the Covered
Person was not liable by reason of Disabling Conduct. The termination of
any proceeding by judgment, order or settlement shall not create a
presumption that the Covered Person did not meet the required standard of
conduct; the termination of any proceeding by conviction, or a plea of
nolo contendere or its equivalent, or an entry of an order of probation
prior to judgment, shall create a rebuttable presumption that the Covered
Person did not meet the required standard of conduct. Any determination
pursuant to this Section 5.02 shall not prevent recovery from any Covered
Person of any amount paid to him in accordance with this By-Law as
indemnification if such Covered Person is subsequently adjudicated by a
court of competent jurisdiction to be liable by reason of Disabling
Conduct.

         5.03 Advance Payment of Expenses. Reasonable expenses (including
attorneys' fees) incurred by a Covered Person may be paid or reimbursed
by the Corporation in advance of the final disposition of an action, suit
or proceeding upon receipt by the Corporation of (i) a written
affirmation by the Covered Person of his good faith belief that the
standard of conduct necessary for indemnification under this By-Law has
been met and (ii) a written undertaking by or on behalf of the Covered
Person to repay the amount if it is ultimately determined that such
standard of conduct has not been met, so long as either (A) the Covered
Person has provided a security for his undertaking, (B) the Corporation
is insured against losses arising by reason of any lawful advances, or
(C) a majority of a quorum of the Disinterested Non-Party Directors, or
an independent legal counsel in a written opinion, has determined, based
on a review of readily available facts (as opposed to a full trial-type
inquiry), that there is reason to believe that the Covered Person
ultimately will be found entitled to indemnification.

         5.04 Exclusivity, Etc. The indemnification and advance of expenses 
provided by this By-Law shall not be deemed exclusive of any other
rights to which a Covered Person seeking

                                    6

<PAGE>



indemnification or advance or expenses may be entitled under any law
(common or statutory), or any agreement, vote of stockholders or
disinterested directors, or other provision that is consistent with law,
both as to action in an official capacity and as to action in another
capacity while holding office or while employed by or acting as agent for
the Corporation, shall continue in respect of all events occurring while
the Covered Person was a director or officer after such Covered Person
has ceased to be a director or officer, and shall inure to the benefit of
the estate, heirs, executors and administrators of such Covered Person.
The Corporation shall not be liable for any payment under this By-Law in
connection with a claim made by a director or officer to the extent such
director or officer has otherwise actually received payment, under an
insurance policy, agreement, vote or otherwise, of the amounts otherwise
indemnifiable hereunder. All rights to indemnification and advance of
expenses under the Charter and hereunder shall be deemed to be a contract
between the Corporation and each director or officer of the Corporation
who serves or served in such capacity at any time while this By-Law is in
effect. Nothing herein shall prevent the amendment of this ByLaw,
provided that no such amendment shall diminish the rights of any Covered
Person hereunder with respect to events occurring or claims made before
its adoption or as to claims made after its adoption in respect of events
occurring before its adoption. Any repeal or modification of this ByLaw
shall not in any way diminish any rights to indemnification or advance of
expenses of a Covered Person or the obligations of the Corporation
arising hereunder with respect to events occurring, or claims made, while
this By-Law or any provision hereof is in force.

         5.05 Insurance. The Corporation may purchase and maintain
insurance on behalf of any Covered Person against any liability asserted
against him and incurred by him in any such capacity, or arising out of
his status as such; provided, however, that the Corporation shall not
purchase insurance to indemnify any Covered Person against liability for
Disabling Conduct.

         5.06 Severability: Definitions. The invalidity or
unenforceability of any provision of this Article V shall not affect the
validity or enforceability of any other provision hereof. The phrase
"this By-Law" in this Article V means this Article V in its entirety.

              Section 8 of the Article of Incorporation provides as
follows:

              (5) The Corporation shall indemnify (i) its directors
and officers, whether serving the Corporation or at its request any other
entity, to the full extent required or permitted by the General Laws of
the State of Maryland now or hereafter in force, including the advance of
expenses under the procedures and to the full extent permitted by law,
and (ii) other employees and agents to such extent as shall be authorized
by the Board of Directors or the By-Laws of the Corporation and as
permitted by law. The foregoing rights of indemnification shall not be
exclusive of any other rights to which those seeking indemnification may
be entitled. The Board of Directors may take such action as is necessary
to carry out these indemnification provisions and is expressly empowered
to adopt, approve and amend from time to time such By-Laws, resolutions
or contracts implementing such provisions or such further indemnification
arrangements as may be permitted by law. The right of indemnification
provided hereunder shall not be construed to protect any director or
officer of the Corporation against any liability to the Corporation or
its security holders to which he would

                                    7

<PAGE>



otherwise be subject by reason of willful misfeasance, bad faith, gross
negligence or reckless disregard of the duties involved in the conduct of
his office.

                  (6) To the fullest extent permitted by Maryland
statutory or decisional law, as amended or interpreted, no director or
officer of the Corporation shall be personally liable to the Corporation
or its stockholders for money damages; provided, however, that this
provision shall not be construed to protect any director or officer
against any liability to the Corporation or its security holders to which
he would otherwise be subject by reason of willful misfeasance, bad
faith, gross negligence or reckless disregard of the duties involved in
the conduct of his office. No amendment, modification or repeal of this
provision shall adversely affect any right or protection provided
hereunder that exists at the time of such amendment, modification or
repeal.

               INVESTMENT ADVISORY AND MANAGEMENT AGREEMENT


         This INVESTMENT ADVISORY AND MANAGEMENT AGREEMENT is dated as of
September 17, 1996, as amended on August 20, 1997, by and between Style
Select Series, Inc., a Maryland corporation (the "Corporation"), and
SUNAMERICA ASSET MANAGEMENT CORP., a Delaware corporation (the
"Adviser").


                           W I T N E S S E T H:

         WHEREAS, the Corporation is registered under the Investment
Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "Act"), as an open-end management
investment company and may issue shares of common stock, par value $.0001
per share, in separately designated Portfolio representing separate funds
with their own investment objectives, policies and purposes (each, a
"Fund" and collectively, the "Funds"); and

         WHEREAS, the Adviser is engaged in the business of rendering
investment management, advisory and administrative services and is
registered as an investment adviser under the Investment Advisers Act of
1940; and

         WHEREAS, the Corporation desires to retain the Adviser to
furnish investment management, advisory and administrative services to
the Corporation and the Funds and the Adviser is willing to furnish such
services;

          NOW, THEREFORE, it is hereby agreed between the parties hereto
as follows:

         1. Duties of the Adviser. The Adviser shall manage the affairs
of the Funds including, but not limited to, continuously providing the
Funds with investment management, including investment research, advice
and supervision, determining which securities shall be purchased or sold
by the Funds, making purchases and sales of securities on behalf of the
Funds and determining how voting and other rights with respect to
securities owned by the Funds shall be exercised, subject in each case to
the control of the Board of Directors of the Corporation (the
"Directors") and in accordance with the objectives, policies and
principles set forth in Corporation's Registration Statement and the
Funds' current Prospectus and Statement of Additional Information, as
amended from time to time, the requirements of the Act and other
applicable law. In performing such duties, the Adviser (i) shall provide
such office space, such bookkeeping, accounting, clerical, secretarial
and administrative services (exclusive of, and in addition to, any such
service provided by any others retained by the Funds or Corporation on
behalf of the Funds) and such executive and other personnel as shall be
necessary for the operations of the Funds, (ii) shall be responsible for
the financial and accounting records required to be maintained by the
Funds (including those maintained by Corporation's custodian) and (iii)
shall oversee the performance of services provided to the Funds by
others, including the custodian, transfer and shareholder servicing
agent. The Corporation understands that the Adviser also acts as the
manager of other investment companies.

<PAGE>

         Subject to Section 36 of the Act, the Adviser shall not be
liable to the Funds or Corporation for any error of judgment or mistake
of law or for any loss arising out of any investment or for any act or
omission in the management of the Funds and the performance of its duties
under this Agreement except for willful misfeasance, bad faith or gross
negligence in the performance of its duties or by reason of reckless
disregard of its obligations and duties under this Agreement.

         2. Retention by Adviser of Sub-Advisers, etc. In carrying out
its responsibilities hereunder, the Adviser may employ, retain or
otherwise avail itself of the services of other persons or entities
including, without limitation, affiliates of the Adviser, on such terms
as the Adviser shall determine to be necessary, desirable or appropriate.
Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, and subject to the
requirements of Section 15 of the Act, the Adviser may retain one or more
sub-advisers to manage all or a portion of the investment portfolio of a
Fund, at the Adviser's own cost and expense. Retention of one or more
sub-advisers, or the employment or retention of other persons or entities
to perform services, shall in no way reduce the responsibilities or
obligations of the Adviser under this Agreement and the Adviser shall be
responsible for all acts and omissions of such sub-advisers, or other
persons or entities, in connection with the performance of the Adviser's
duties hereunder.

         3. Expenses. The Adviser shall pay all of its expenses arising
from the performance of its obligations under Section 1 and shall pay any
salaries, fees and expenses of the Corporation's Directors and Officers
who are employees of the Adviser. The Adviser shall not be required to
pay any other expenses of the Funds, including, but not limited to,
direct charges relating to the purchase and sale of portfolio securities,
interest charges, fees and expenses of independent attorneys and
auditors, taxes and governmental fees, cost of share certificates and any
other expenses (including clerical expenses) of issue, sale, repurchase
or redemption of shares, expenses of registering and qualifying shares
for sale, expenses of printing and distributing reports, notices and
proxy materials to shareholders, expenses of data processing and related
services, shareholder recordkeeping and shareholder account service,
expenses of printing and filing reports and other documents filed with
governmental agencies, expenses of printing and distributing
prospectuses, expenses of annual and special shareholders meetings, fees
and disbursements of transfer agents and custodians, expenses of
disbursing dividends and distributions, fees and expenses of Directors
who are not employees of the Adviser or its affiliates, membership dues
in the Investment Company Institute, insurance premiums and extraordinary
expenses such as litigation expenses.

         4. Compensation of the Adviser. (a) As full compensation for the
services rendered, facilities furnished and expenses paid by the Adviser
under this Agreement, the Corporation agrees to pay to the Adviser a fee
at the annual rates set forth in Schedule A hereto with respect to each
Fund indicated thereon. Such fee shall be accrued daily and paid monthly
as soon as practicable after the end of each month (i.e., the applicable
annual fee rate divided by 365 is applied to each prior days' net assets
in order to calculate the daily accrual). For purposes of calculating the
Adviser's fee with respect to any Fund, the average daily net asset value
of a Fund shall be determined by taking an average of all determinations
of such net asset value during the month. If the Adviser shall serve for
less than the whole of any month the foregoing compensation shall be
prorated.

                  (b) Upon any termination of this Agreement on a day
other than the last day of the month, the fee for the period from the
beginning of the month in which termination occurs to the 

                                   -2-

<PAGE>


date of termination shall be prorated according to the proportion which
such period bears to the full month.

         5. Portfolio Transactions. The Adviser is responsible for
decisions to buy or sell securities and other investments for a portion
of the assets of each Portfolio, broker-dealers and futures commission
merchants' selection, and negotiation of brokerage commission and futures
commission merchants' rates. As a general matter, in executing Portfolio
transactions, the Adviser may employ or deal with such broker-dealers or
futures commission merchants as may, in the Adviser's best judgement,
provide prompt and reliable execution of the transactions at favorable
prices and reasonable commission rates. In selecting such broker-dealers
or futures commission merchants, the Adviser shall consider all relevant
factors including price (including the applicable brokerage commission,
dealer spread or futures commission merchant rate), the size of the
order, the nature of the market for the security or other investment, the
timing of the transaction, the reputation, experience and financial
stability of the broker-dealer or futures commission merchant involved,
the quality of the service, the difficulty of execution, the execution
capabilities and operational facilities of the firm involved, and, in the
case of securities, the firm's risk in positioning a block of securities.
Subject to such policies as the Directors may determine and consistent
with Section 28(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended
(the "1934 Act"), the Adviser shall not be deemed to have acted
unlawfully or to have breached any duty created by this Agreement or
otherwise solely by reason of the Adviser's having caused a Portfolio to
pay a member of an exchange, broker or dealer an amount of commission for
effecting a securities transaction in excess of the amount of commission
another member of an exchange, broker or dealer would have charged for
effecting that transaction, if the Adviser determines in good faith that
such amount of commission was reasonable in relation to the value of the
brokerage and research services provided by such member of an exchange,
broker or dealer viewed in terms of either that particular transaction or
the Adviser's overall responsibilities with respect to such Portfolio and
to other clients as to which the Adviser exercises investment discretion.
In accordance with Section 11(a) of the 1934 Act and Rule 11a2-2(T)
thereunder, and subject to any other applicable laws and regulations
including Section 17(e) of the Act and Rule 17e-1 thereunder, the Adviser
may engage its affiliates or any other subadviser to the Corporation and
its respective affiliates, as broker-dealers or futures commission
merchants to effect Portfolio transactions in securities and other
investments for a Portfolio. The Adviser will promptly communicate to the
officers and the Directors of the Corporation such information relating
to Portfolio transactions as they may reasonably request. To the extent
consistent with applicable law, the Adviser may aggregate purchase or
sell orders for the Portfolio with contemporaneous purchase or sell
orders of other clients of the Adviser or its affiliated persons. In such
event, allocation of the securities so purchased or sold, as well as the
expenses incurred in the transaction, will be made by the Adviser in the
manner the Adviser determines to be equitable and consistent with its and
its affiliates' fiduciary obligations to the Portfolio and to such other
clients. The Adviser hereby acknowledges that such aggregation of orders
may not result in more favorable pricing or lower brokerage commissions
in all instances.

         6. Term of Agreement. This agreement shall continue in full
force and effect for two years from the date hereof, and shall continue
in full force and effect from year to year thereafter if such continuance
is approved in the manner required by the Act and the Adviser has not
notified the Corporation in writing at least 60 days prior to the
anniversary date of the previous continuance that it does not desire such
continuance. With respect to each Fund, this Agreement may be terminated
at any time, without payment of penalty by the Fund or the Corporation,
on 60

                                   -3-
<PAGE>

days written notice to the Adviser, by vote of the Directors, or by vote
of a majority of the outstanding voting securities (as defined by the
Act) of the Fund, voting separately from any other Portfolio of the
Corporation. The termination of this Agreement with respect to any Fund
or the addition of any Fund to Schedule A hereto (in the manner required
by the Act) shall not affect the continued effectiveness of this
Agreement with respect to each other Fund subject hereto. This Agreement
shall automatically terminate in the event of its assignment (as defined
by the Act).

            The Corporation hereby agrees that if (i) the Adviser
ceases to act as investment manager and adviser to the Corporation and
(ii) the continued use of the Corporation's present name would create
confusion in the context of the Adviser's business, then the Corporation
will use its best efforts to change its name in order to delete the word
"SunAmerica" from its name.

         7. Liability of the Adviser. In the absence of willful
misfeasance, bad faith, gross negligence or reckless disregard of
obligations or duties ("disabling conduct") hereunder on the part of the
Adviser (and its officers, directors, agents, employees, controlling
persons, shareholders and any other person or entity affiliated with the
Adviser) the Adviser shall not be subject to liability to the Corporation
or to any shareholder of the Corporation for any act or omission in the
course of, or connected with, rendering services hereunder, including
without limitation, any error of judgment or mistake of law or for any
loss suffered by any of them in connection with the matters to which this
Agreement relates, except to the extent specified in Section 36(b) of the
Act concerning loss resulting from a breach of fiduciary duty with
respect to the receipt of compensation for services. Except for such
disabling conduct, the Corporation shall indemnify the Adviser (and its
officers, directors, partners, agents, employees, controlling persons,
shareholders and any other person or entity affiliated with the Adviser)
(collectively, the "Indemnified Parties") from any liability arising from
the Adviser's conduct under this Agreement.

            Indemnification to the Adviser or any of its personnel or
affiliates shall be made when (i) a final decision on the merits
rendered, by a court or other body before whom the proceeding was
brought, that the person to be indemnified was not liable by reason of
disabling conduct or, (ii) in the absence of such a decision, a
reasonable determination, based upon a review of the facts, that the
person to be indemnified was not liable by reason of disabling conduct,
by (a) the vote of a majority of a quorum of the Directors who are
neither "interested persons" of the Corporation as defined in section
2(a)(19) of the Act nor parties to the proceeding ("disinterested,
non-party Directors") or (b) an independent legal counsel in a written
opinion. The Corporation may, by vote of a majority of the disinterested,
non-party Directors advance attorneys' fees or other expenses incurred by
an Indemnified Party in defending a proceeding upon the undertaking by or
on behalf of the Indemnified Party to repay the advance unless it is
ultimately determined that he is entitled to indemnification. Such
advance shall be subject to at least one of the following: (1) the person
to be indemnified shall provide a security for his undertaking, (2) the
Corporation shall be insured against losses arising by reason of any
lawful advances, or (3) a majority of a quorum of the disinterested,
non-party Directors or an independent legal counsel in a written opinion,
shall determine, based on a review of readily available facts, that there
is reason to believe that the person to be indemnified ultimately will be
found entitled to indemnification.

         8. Non-Exclusivity. Nothing in this Agreement shall limit or
restrict the right of any director, officer or employee of the Adviser
who may also be a Director, officer or employee of the Corporation to
engage in any other business or devote his or her time and attention in
part to the 

                                   -4-

<PAGE>

management or other aspects of any business, whether of a similar or
dissimilar nature, nor limit or restrict the right of the Adviser to
engage in any other business or to render services of any kind to any
other corporation, firm, individual or association.

         9. Amendments. This Agreement may be amended by mutual consent
in writing, but the consent of the Corporation must be obtained in
conformity with the requirements of the Act.


         10. Governing Law. This Agreement shall be construed in
accordance with the laws of the State of New York and the applicable
provisions of the Act. To the extent the applicable laws of the State of
New York, or any of the provisions herein, conflict with the applicable
provisions of the Act, the latter shall apply.

         11. Separate Portfolio. Pursuant to the provisions of the
Declaration, each Fund is a separate Portfolio of the Corporation, and
all debts, liabilities, obligations and expenses of a particular Fund
shall be enforceable only against the assets of that Fund and not against
the assets of any other Fund or of the Corporation as a whole.

         IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Corporation and the Adviser have caused
this Agreement to be executed by their duly authorized officers as of the
date first above written.

                              SUBADVISORY AGREEMENT

                  This SUBADVISORY AGREEMENT is dated as of February 18, 1998 by
and between SUNAMERICA ASSET MANAGEMENT CORP., a Delaware corporation (the
"Adviser"), and BANKERS TRUST COMPANY (the "Subadviser"), a wholly owned
subsidiary of Bankers Trust New York Corporation.

                                   WITNESSETH:

         WHEREAS, the Adviser and Style Select Series Inc., a Maryland
corporation (the "Corporation"), have entered into an Investment Advisory and
Management Agreement dated as of September 17, 1996, as amended August 20, 1997
(the "Advisory Agreement"), pursuant to which the Adviser has agreed to provide
investment management, advisory and administrative services to the Corporation;
and

         WHEREAS, the Corporation is registered under the Investment Company Act
of 1940, as amended (the "Act"), as an open-end management investment company
and may issue shares of common stock, par value $.0001 per share, in separately
designated series representing separate funds with their own investment
objectives, policies and purposes; and

         WHEREAS, the Subadviser is engaged in the business of rendering
investment advisory services and is a "bank" as defined under the Investment
Advisers Act of 1940, as amended; and

         WHEREAS, the Adviser desires to retain the Subadviser to furnish
investment advisory services to the investment series of the Corporation listed
on Schedule A attached hereto (the "Portfolio"), and the Subadviser is willing
to furnish such services;

         NOW, THEREFORE, it is hereby agreed between the parties hereto as
follows:

         1. Duties of the Subadviser. (a) The Adviser hereby engages the
services of the Subadviser in furtherance of its Investment Advisory and
Management Agreement with the Corporation. Pursuant to this Subadvisory
Agreement and subject to the oversight and review of the Adviser, the Subadviser
will manage the investment and reinvestment of a portion of the assets of each
Portfolio listed on Schedule A attached hereto. The Subadviser will determine,
in its discretion and subject to the oversight and review of the Adviser, the
securities to be purchased or sold, will provide the Adviser with records
concerning its activities which the Adviser of the Corporation is required to
maintain, and will render regular reports to the Adviser and to officers and
Directors of the Corporation concerning its discharge of the foregoing
responsibilities. The Subadviser shall discharge the foregoing responsibilities
subject to the control of the officers and the Directors of the Corporation and
in compliance with such policies as the Directors of the Corporation may from
time to time establish, and in compliance with (a) the objectives, policies, and
limitations for the Portfolio set forth in the Corporation's current prospectus
and statement of additional information, and (b) applicable laws and
regulations.

                  The Subadviser represents and warrants to the Adviser that the
portion of the assets which it manages of the Portfolio set forth in Schedule A
will at all times be operated and managed in compliance with all applicable
federal and state laws governing its operations and investments. Without
limiting the foregoing, the Subadviser represents and warrants (1)
qualification, election and 

<PAGE>

maintenance of such election by each Portfolio to be treated as a "regulated
investment company" under Subchapter M, chapter 1 of the Internal Revenue Code
of 1986, as amended (the "Code"), and (2) compliance with (a) the provisions of
the Act and rules adopted thereunder; (b) applicable federal and state
securities, commodities and banking laws; and (c) the distribution requirements
necessary to avoid payment of any excise tax pursuant to Section 4982 of the
Code. The Subadviser further represents and warrants that to the extent any
statements or omissions made in any Registration Statement for shares of the
corporation, or any amendment or supplement thereto, are made in reliance upon
and in conformity with information furnished by the Subadviser expressly for
use therein, such Registration Statement and any amendments or supplements
thereto will, when they become effective, conform in all material respects to
the requirements of the Securities Act of 1933 and the rules and regulations of
the Commission thereunder (the "1933 Act") and the Act and will not contain any
untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required
to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not
misleading.

                  The Subadviser accepts such employment and agrees, at its own
expense, to render the services set forth herein and to provide the office
space, furnishings, equipment and personnel required by it to perform such
services on the terms and for the compensation provided in this Agreement.

                  (b) The Subadviser agrees: (i) to maintain a level of errors
and omissions or professional liability insurance coverage that, at all times
during the course of this Agreement, is appropriate given the nature of its
business, and (ii) from time to time and upon reasonable request, to supply
evidence of such coverage to the Adviser.

         2. Portfolio Transactions. The Subadviser is responsible for decisions
to buy or sell securities and other investments for a portion of the assets of
each Portfolio, broker-dealers and futures commission merchants' selection, and
negotiation of brokerage commission and futures commission merchants' rates. As
a general matter, in executing Portfolio transactions, the Subadviser may employ
or deal with such broker-dealers or futures commission merchants as may, in the
Subadviser's best judgment, provide prompt and reliable execution of the
transactions at favorable prices and reasonable commission rates. In selecting
such broker-dealers or futures commission merchants, the Subadviser shall
consider all relevant factors including price (including the applicable
brokerage commission, dealer spread or futures commission merchant rate), the
size of the order, the nature of the market for the security or other
investment, the timing of the transaction, the reputation, experience and
financial stability of the broker-dealer or futures commission merchant
involved, the quality of the service, the difficulty of execution, the execution
capabilities and operational facilities of the firm involved, and, in the case
of securities, the firm's risk in positioning a block of securities. Subject to
such policies as the Directors may determine and, consistent with Section 28(e)
of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "1934 Act"), the
Subadviser shall not be deemed to have acted unlawfully or to have breached any
duty created by this Agreement or otherwise solely by reason of the Subadviser's
having caused a Portfolio to pay a member of an exchange, broker or dealer an
amount of commission for effecting a securities transaction in excess of the
amount of commission another member of an exchange, broker or dealer would have
charged for effecting that transaction, if the Subadviser determines in good
faith that such amount of commission was reasonable in relation to the value of
the brokerage and research services provided by such member of an exchange,
broker or dealer viewed in terms of either that particular transaction or the
Subadviser's overall responsibilities with respect to such Portfolio and to
other clients as to which the 

                                      -2-

<PAGE>

Subadviser exercises investment discretion. In accordance with Section 11(a) of
the 1934 Act and Rule 11a2-2(T) thereunder, and subject to any other applicable
laws and regulations including Section 17(e) of the Act and Rule 17e-1
thereunder, the Subadviser may engage its affilates, the Adviser and its
affiliates or any other subadviser to the corporation and its respective
affilates, as broker-dealers or futures commission merchants to effect
Portfolio transactions in securities and other investments for a Portfolio. The
Subadviser will promptly communicate to the Adviser and to the officers and the
Directors of the Corporation such information relating to Portfolio
transactions as they may reasonably request. To the extent consistent with
applicable law, the Subadviser may aggregate purchase or sell orders for the
Portfolio with contemporaneous purchase or sell orders of other clients of the
Subadviser or its affilated persons. In such event, allocation of the
securities so purchased or sold, as well as the expenses incurred in the
transaction, will be made by the Subadviser in the manner the Subadviser
determines to be equitable and consistent with its and its affilates' fiduciary
obligations to the Portfolio and to such other clients. The Adviser hereby
acknowledges that such aggregation of orders may not result in more favorable
pricing or lower brokerage commissions in all instances.

         3. Compensation of the Subadviser. The Subadviser shall not be entitled
to receive any payment from the Corporation and shall look solely and
exclusively to the Adviser for payment of all fees for the services rendered,
facilities furnished and expenses paid by it hereunder. As full compensation for
the Subadviser under this Agreement, the Adviser agrees to pay to the Subadviser
a fee at the annual rate set forth in Schedule A hereto with respect to the
portion of the assets managed by the Subadviser for the Portfolio listed
thereon. Such fee shall be accrued daily and paid monthly as soon as practicable
after the end of each month (i.e., the applicable annual fee rate divided by 365
applied to each prior days' net assets in order to calculate the daily accrual).
If the Subadviser shall provide its services under this Agreement for less than
the whole of any month, the foregoing compensation shall be prorated.

         4. Other Services. At the request of the Corporation or the Adviser,
the Subadviser in its discretion may make available to the Corporation office
facilities, equipment, personnel and other services in order to facilitate
meetings or other similar functions. Such office facilities, equipment,
personnel and services shall be provided for or rendered by the Subadviser and
billed to the Corporation or the Adviser at the Subadviser's cost.

         5. Reports. The Corporation, the Adviser and the Subadviser agree to
furnish to each other, if applicable, current prospectuses, statements of
additional information, proxy statements, reports of shareholders, certified
copies of their financial statement, and such other information with regard to
their affairs and that of the Corporation as each may reasonably request.

         6. Status of the Subadviser. The services of the Subadviser to the
Adviser and the corporation are not be deemed exclusive, and the Subadviser
shall be free to render similar services to others so long as its services to
the Corporation are not impaired thereby. The Subadviser shall be deemed to be
an independent contractor and shall, unless otherwise expressly provided or
authorized, have no authority to act for or represent the Corporation in any way
or otherwise be deemed an agent of the Corporation.

         7. Certain Records. The Subadviser hereby undertakes and agrees to
maintain, in the form and for the period required by Rule 31a-2 under the Act,
all records relating to the investments of the Portfolio that are required to be
maintained by the Corporation pursuant to the requirements

                                      -3-

<PAGE>

of Rule 31a-1 of that Act. Any records required to be maintained and preserved
pursuant to the provisions of Rule 31a-1 and Rule 31a-2 promulgated under the
Act which are prepared or maintained by the Subadviser on behalf of the
Corporation are the property of the Corporation and will be surrendered
promptly to the Corporation or the Adviser on request.

                  The Subadviser agrees that all accounts, books and other
records maintained and preserved by it as required hereby shall be subject at
any time, and from time to time, to such reasonable periodic, special and other
examinations by the Securities and Exchange Commission, the Corporation's
auditors, the Corporation or any representative of the Corporation, the Adviser,
or any governmental agency or other instrumentality having regulatory authority
over the Corporation.

         8. Reference to the Subadviser. Neither the Corporation nor the Adviser
or any affiliate or agent thereof shall make reference to or use the name of the
Subadviser or any of its affiliates in any advertising or promotional materials
without the prior approval of the Subadviser, which approval shall not be
unreasonably withheld.

         9. Liability of the Subadviser. (a) In the absence of willful
misfeasance, bad faith, gross negligence or reckless disregard of obligations or
duties ("disabling conduct") hereunder on the part of the Subadviser (and its
officers, directors, agents, employees, controlling persons, shareholders and
any other person or entity affiliated with the Subadviser) the Subadviser shall
not be subject to liability to the Corporation or to any shareholder of the
Corporation for any act or omission in the course of, or connected with,
rendering services hereunder, including without limitation, any error of
judgment or mistake of law or for any loss suffered by any of them in connection
with the matters to which this Agreement relates, except to the extent specified
in Section 36(b) of the Act concerning loss resulting from a beach of fiduciary
duty with respect to the receipt of compensation for services. Except for such
disabling conduct, the Adviser shall indemnify the Subadviser (and its officers,
directors, partners, agents, employees, controlling persons, shareholders and
any other person or entity affiliated with the Subadviser) (collectively, the
"Indemnified Parties") from any liability arising from the Subadviser's conduct
under this Agreement.

                  (b) The Subadviser agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the
Adviser and its affiliates and each of its directors and officers and each
person, if any, who controls the Adviser within the meaning of Section 15 of the
1933 Act against any an all losses, claims, damages, liabilities or litigation
(including legal and other expenses), to which the Adviser or its affiliates or
such directors, officers or controlling person may become subject under the 1933
Act, under other statutes, at common law or otherwise, which may be based upon
(i) any wrongful act or breach of this Agreement by the Subadviser, or (ii) any
failure by the Subadviser to comply with the representations and warranties set
forth in Section 1 of this Agreement; provided, however, that in no case is the
Subadviser's indemnity in favor of any person deemed to protect such other
persons against any liability to which such person would otherwise be subject by
reasons of willful misfeasance, bad faith, or gross negligence in the
performance of his, her or its duties or by reason of his, her or its reckless
disregard of obligation and duties under this Agreement.

                  (c) The Subadviser shall not be liable to the Adviser for (i)
any acts of the Adviser or any other subadviser to the Portfolio with respect to
the portion of the assets of a Portfolio not managed by Subadviser and (ii) acts
of the Subadviser which result from acts of the Adviser, including, but not
limited to: (A) a failure of the Adviser to provide accurate and current
information 

                                      -4-

<PAGE>

with respect to any records maintained by Adviser or any other subadviser to a
Portfolio, which records are not also maintained by or otherwise available to
the Subadviser upon reasonable request; and (B) acts of the Subadviser that
were made in reasonable reliance upon information provided to it by the
Adviser. The Adviser agrees that Subadviser shall manage the portion of the
assets of a Portfolio allocated to it as if it was a separate operating
Portfolio and shall comply with subsections (a) and (b) of Section 1 of this
Subadvisory Agreement (including, but not limited to, the investment
objectives, policies and restrictions applicable to a Portfolio and
qualifications of a Portfolio as a regulated investment company under the Code)
with respect to the portion of assets of a Portfolio allocated to Subadviser.
The Adviser shall indemnify the Indemnified Parties from any liability arising
from the conduct of the Adviser and any other subadviser with respect to the
portion of a Portfolio's assets not allocated to Subadviser.

         10. Permissible Interests. Directors and agents of the Corporation are
or may be interested in the Subadviser (or any successor thereof) as directors,
partners, officers, or shareholders, or otherwise; directors, partners,
officers, agents, and shareholders of the Subadviser are or may be interested in
the Corporation as Directors, or otherwise; and the Subadviser (or any
successor) is or may be interested in the Corporation in some manner.

         11. Term of the Agreement. This Agreement shall continue in full force
and effect with respect to each Portfolio until two years from the date hereof,
and from year to year thereafter so long as such continuance is specifically
approved at least annually (i) by the vote of a majority of those Directors of
the Corporation who are not parties to this Agreement or interested persons of
any such party, cast in person at a meeting called for the purpose of voting on
such approval, and (ii) by the Directors of the Corporation or by vote of a
majority of the outstanding voting securities of the Portfolio voting separately
from any other series of the Corporation.

                  With respect to the Portfolio, this Agreement may be
terminated at any time, without payment of a penalty by the Portfolio or the
Corporation, by vote of a majority of the Directors, or by vote of a majority of
the outstanding voting securities (as defined in the Act) of the Portfolio,
voting separately from any other series of the Corporation, or by the Adviser,
on not less than 30 nor more than 60 days' written notice to the Subadviser.
With respect to each Portfolio, this Agreement may be terminated by the
Subadviser at any time, without the payment of any penalty, on 90 days' written
notice to the Adviser and the Corporation; provided, however, that this
Agreement may not be terminated by the Subadviser unless another subadvisory
agreement has been approved by the Corporation in accordance with the Act, or
after six months' written notice, whichever is earlier. The termination of this
Agreement with respect to any Portfolio or the addition of any Portfolio to
Schedule A hereto (in the manner required by the Act) shall not affect the
continue effectiveness of this Agreement with respect to each other Portfolio
subject hereto. This Agreement shall automatically terminate in the event of its
assignment (as defined by the Act).

                  This Agreement will also terminate in the event that the
Advisory Agreement by and between the Corporation and the Adviser is terminated.

         12. Severability. If any provision of this Agreement shall be held or
made invalid by a court decision, statute, rule or otherwise, the remainder of
this Agreement shall not be affected thereby.

                                      -5-

<PAGE>

         13. Amendments. This Agreement may be amended by mutual consent in
writing, but the consent of the Corporation must be obtained in conformity with
the requirements of the Act.

         14. Governing Law. This Agreement shall be construed in accordance with
the laws of the State of New York and the applicable provisions of the Act. To
the extent the applicable laws of the State of New York, or any of the
provisions herein, conflict with the applicable provisions of the Act, the
latter shall control.

         15. Separate Series. Pursuant to the provisions of the Articles of
Incorporation and the General Laws of the State of Maryland, each Portfolio is a
separate series of the Corporation, and all debts, liabilities, obligations and
expenses of a particular Portfolio shall be enforceable only against the assets
of that Portfolio and not against the assets of any other Portfolio or of the
Corporation as a whole.

         16. Notices. All notices shall be in writing and deemed properly given
when delivered or mailed by United States certified or registered mail, return
receipt requested, postage prepaid, addressed as follows:

                             SUBADVISORY AGREEMENT

                  This SUBADVISORY AGREEMENT is dated as of August 20, 1997 by
and between SUNAMERICA ASSET MANAGEMENT CORP., a Delaware corporation (the
"Adviser"), and BERGER ASSOCIATES, INC., a Delaware corporation (the
"Subadviser").

                                  WITNESSETH:

         WHEREAS, the Adviser and Style Select Series Inc., a Maryland
corporation (the "Corporation"), have entered into an Investment Advisory and
Management Agreement dated as of September 17, 1996, as amended August 20, 1997
(the "Advisory Agreement"), pursuant to which the Adviser has agreed to provide
investment management, advisory and administrative services to the Corporation;
and

         WHEREAS, the Corporation is registered under the Investment Company
Act of 1940, as amended (the "Act"), as an open-end management investment
company and may issue shares of common stock, par value $.0001 per share, in
separately designated series representing separate funds with their own
investment objectives, policies and purposes; and

         WHEREAS, the Subadviser is engaged in the business of rendering
investment advisory services and is registered as an investment adviser under
the Investment Advisers Act of 1940, as amended; and

         WHEREAS, the Adviser desires to retain the Subadviser to furnish
investment advisory services to the investment series of the Corporation listed
on Schedule A attached hereto (the "Series"), and the Subadviser is willing to
furnish such services;

         NOW, THEREFORE, it is hereby agreed between the parties hereto as
follows:

         1. Duties of the Subadviser. The Adviser hereby engages the services
of the Subadviser in furtherance of its Advisory Agreement with the
Corporation. Pursuant to this Subadvisory Agreement and subject to the
oversight and review of the Adviser, the Subadviser will manage the investment
and reinvestment of a portion of the assets of each Series listed on Schedule A
attached hereto. The Subadviser will determine in its discretion and subject to
the oversight and review of the Adviser, the securities to be purchased or
sold, will provide the Adviser with records concerning its activities which the
Adviser of the Corporation is required to maintain, and will render such
regular reports to the Adviser and to officers and Directors of the Corporation
as they may reasonably request concerning the Subadviser's discharge of the
foregoing responsibilities. The Subadviser shall discharge the foregoing
responsibilities subject to the control of the officers and the Directors of
the Corporation.

                  The Subadviser represents and warrants to the Adviser that
the portion of the assets which it manages of the Series set forth in Schedule
A will at all times be managed in compliance with (a) the objectives, policies,
and limitations for the applicable Series set forth in the Corporation's
current prospectus and statement of additional information, (b) such policies
as the Directors of the Corporation may from time to time establish and which
have 

<PAGE>

been furnished to the Subadviser in writing, (c) the provisions of the Internal
Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code") applicable to "regulated
investment companies" (as defined in Section 851 of the Code), all as from time
to time in effect, and (d) all applicable federal and state laws governing such
Series' operations and investments, including, without limitation, the
provisions of the Act and rules adopted thereunder and applicable federal and
state securities, tax and banking laws. For purposes of compliance with the
foregoing, the Subadviser shall be entitled to treat each such portion of the
assets of each such Series set forth in Schedule A managed by the Subadviser as
though such portion of the assets constituted the entire Series, and the
Subadviser shall not be responsible in any way for the compliance of any assets
of the Series, other than such portion of the assets of such Series managed by
the Subadviser, with any of the foregoing or for the compliance of the Series,
taken as a whole, with any of the foregoing. The Subadviser further represents
and warrants that to the extent that any statements or omissions made in any
Registration Statement for shares of the Corporation, or any amendment or
supplement thereto, are made in reliance upon and in conformity with
information furnished in writing by the Subadviser expressly for use therein,
such parts of such Registration Statement and any amendments or supplements
thereto consisting of such statements or omissions will, when they become
effective, conform in all material respects to the requirements of the
Securities Act of 1933 and the rules and regulation thereunder (the "1933 Act")
and the Act and will not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or
fail to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to
make the statements therein not misleading.

                  The Subadviser accepts such employment and agrees, at its own
expense, to render the services set forth herein and to provide the office
space, furnishings, equipment and personnel required by it to perform such
services on the terms and for the compensation provided in this Agreement.
Except for expenses specifically assumed or agreed to be paid by the Subadviser
pursuant hereto, the Subadviser shall not be liable for any organizational,
operational or business expenses of the Adviser or the Corporation, including
without limitation, brokerage commissions and other costs in connection with
the purchase or sale of securities or other investment instruments with respect
to the Series.

         2. Series Transactions. The Subadviser is responsible for decisions to
buy or sell securities and other investments for that portion of the assets of
each Series set forth on Schedule A managed by the Subadviser, broker-dealers
and futures commission merchants' selection, and negotiation of brokerage
commission and futures commission merchants' rates. As a general matter, in
executing Series transactions, the Subadviser may employ or deal with such
broker-dealers or futures commission merchants as may, in the Subadviser's best
judgment, provide prompt and reliable execution of the transactions at
favorable prices and reasonable commission rates. In selecting such
broker-dealers or futures commission merchants, the Subadviser shall consider
all relevant factors including price (including the applicable brokerage
commission, dealer spread or futures commission merchant rate), the size of the
order, the nature of the market for the security or other investment, the
timing of the transaction, the reputation, experience and financial stability
of the broker-dealer or futures commission merchant involved, the quality of
the service, the difficulty of execution, the execution capabilities and
operational facilities of the firm involved, and, in the case of securities,
the firm's risk in positioning a block of securities. Subject to such policies
as the Directors may determine and which have been furnished in writing to the
Subadviser, and consistent with Section 28(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of
1934, as amended (the "1934 Act"), the Subadviser shall not be deemed to have
acted unlawfully or to have breached any duty created by this Agreement or
otherwise solely by reason of the Subadviser's having 

<PAGE>

caused a Series to pay a member of an exchange, broker or dealer an amount of
commission for effecting a securities transaction in excess of the amount of
commission another member of an exchange, broker or dealer would have charged
for effecting that transaction, if the Subadviser determines in good faith that
such amount of commission was reasonable in relation to the value of the
brokerage and research services provided by such member of an exchange, broker
or dealer viewed in terms of either that particular transaction or the
Subadviser's overall responsibilities with respect to such Series and to other
clients as to which the Subadviser exercises investment discretion. In
accordance with Section 11(a) of the 1934 Act and Rule 11a2-2(T) thereunder,
and subject to any other applicable laws and regulations including Section
17(e) of the Act and Rule 17e-1 thereunder, the Subadviser may engage its
affiliates, the Adviser and its affiliates or any other subadviser to the
Corporation and its respective affiliates, as broker-dealers or futures
commission merchants to effect Series transactions in securities and other
investments for a Series. The Subadviser will promptly communicate to the
Adviser and to the officers and the Directors of the Corporation such
information relating to transactions for that portion of the assets of the
Series set forth on Schedule A managed by the Subadviser as they may reasonably
request. To the extent consistent with applicable law, the Subadviser may
aggregate purchase or sell orders for the Series with contemporaneous purchase
or sell orders of other clients of the Subadviser or its affiliated persons. In
such event, allocation of the securities so purchased or sold, as well as the
expenses incurred in the transaction, will be made by the Subadviser at a price
and in the manner the Subadviser determines to be equitable and consistent with
its and its affiliates' fiduciary obligations to the Series and to such other
clients. The Adviser hereby acknowledges that such aggregation of orders may
not result in more favorable pricing or lower brokerage commissions in all
instances.

         3. Compensation of the Subadviser. The Subadviser shall not be
entitled to receive any payment from the Corporation and shall look solely and
exclusively to the Adviser for payment of all fees for the services rendered,
facilities furnished and expenses paid by it hereunder. As full compensation to
the Subadviser under this Agreement, the Adviser agrees to pay to the
Subadviser a fee at the annual rates set forth in Schedule A hereto with
respect to the portion of the assets managed by the Subadviser for each Series
listed thereon. Such fee shall be accrued daily and paid monthly as soon as
practicable after the end of each month (i.e., the applicable annual fee rate
divided by 365 applied to each prior days' net assets in order to calculate the
daily accrual). For purposes of calculating the Subadviser's fee, the average
daily net asset value of a Series shall mean the average daily net assets for
which the Subadviser actually provides advisory services, and shall be
determined by taking an average of all determinations of such net asset value
during the month. If the Subadviser shall provide its services under this
Agreement for less than the whole of any month, the foregoing compensation
shall be prorated.

         4. Other Services. At the request of the Corporation or the Adviser,
the Subadviser in its discretion may make available to the Corporation office
facilities, equipment, personnel and other services. Such office facilities,
equipment, personnel and services shall be provided for or rendered by the
Subadviser and billed to the Corporation or the Adviser at the Subadviser's
cost.

         5. Reports. The Corporation, the Adviser and the Subadviser agree to
furnish to each other, if applicable, current prospectuses, statements of
additional information, proxy statements, reports to shareholders, certified
copies of their financial statements, and such other information with regard to
their affairs and that of the Corporation as each may 

<PAGE>

reasonably request; provided, however, that the Subadviser shall not be
obligated to follow any amendment to any of the foregoing documents or
information relating to the Adviser or the Corporation until the Subadviser has
received such amendments in writing from the Adviser or Corporation.

         6. Status of the Subadviser. The services of the Subadviser to the
Adviser and the Corporation are not to be deemed exclusive, and the Subadviser
shall be free to render similar services to others so long as its services to
the Corporation are not impaired thereby. The Subadviser shall be deemed to be
an independent contractor and shall, unless otherwise expressly provided or
authorized, have no authority to act for or represent the Corporation in any
way or otherwise be deemed an agent of the Corporation. Notwithstanding
anything herein to the contrary, the Subadviser may delegate any or all of its
investment advisory services, duties and responsibilities under this Agreement
to Perkins, Wolf, McDonnell & Company. No delegation pursuant to this provision
shall relieve the Subadviser of its duties or responsibilities hereunder, and
the Subadviser shall appropriately oversee, monitor and evaluate the activities
of any party appointed hereunder.

         7. Certain Records. The Subadviser hereby undertakes and agrees to
maintain, in the form and for the period required by Rule 31a-2 under the Act,
all records relating to the investments for that portion of the assets of each
Series set forth on Schedule A managed by the Subadviser that are required to
be maintained by the Corporation pursuant to the requirements of Rule 31a-1 of
the Act. Any records required to be maintained and preserved pursuant to the
provisions of Rule 31a-1 and Rule 31a-2 promulgated under the Act which are
prepared or maintained by the Subadviser on behalf of the Corporation are the
property of the Corporation and will be surrendered promptly to the Corporation
or the Adviser on request.

                  The Subadviser agrees that all accounts, books and other
records maintained and preserved by it as required hereby shall be subject at
any time, and from time to time, to such reasonable periodic, special and other
examinations by the Securities and Exchange Commission, the Corporation's
auditors, the Corporation or any representative of the Corporation, the
Adviser, or any governmental agency or other instrumentality having regulatory
authority over the Corporation.

         8. Reference to the Subadviser. Neither the Corporation nor the
Adviser or any affiliate or agent thereof shall make reference to or use the
name of the Subadviser or any of its affiliates in any advertising or
promotional materials without the prior approval of the Subadviser, which
approval shall not be unreasonably withheld.

         9. Liability of the Subadviser. (a) In the absence of willful
misfeasance, bad faith, gross negligence or reckless disregard of obligations
or duties ("Disabling Conduct") hereunder on the part of the Subadviser (and
its officers, directors, agents, employees, controlling persons, shareholders
and any other person or entity affiliated with the Subadviser), the Subadviser
shall not be subject to liability to the Adviser, the Corporation, any such
Series, or any shareholder of the Corporation or any such Series for any act or
omission in the course of, or connected with, rendering services hereunder,
including without limitation, any error of judgment or mistake of law or for
any loss suffered by any of them in connection with the matters to which this
Agreement relates, except to the extent specified in Section 36(b) of the Act
concerning loss resulting from a breach of fiduciary duty with 

<PAGE>

respect to the receipt of compensation for services. Except for such Disabling
Conduct, the Adviser shall indemnify and hold harmless the Subadviser (and its
officers, directors, partners, agents, employees, controlling persons,
shareholders and any other person or entity affiliated with the Subadviser)
(collectively, the "Indemnified Parties") from and against any and all losses,
claims, damages, liabilities or litigation (including reasonable legal and
other expenses) arising from the Subadviser's conduct under this Agreement.

                  (b) The Subadviser agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the
Adviser and its affiliates and each of its directors and officers and each
person, if any, who controls the Adviser within the meaning of Section 15 of
the 1933 Act against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities or
litigation (including reasonable legal and other expenses), to which the
Adviser or its affiliates or such directors, officers or controlling person may
become subject under the 1933 Act, under other statutes, at common law or
otherwise, which may be based upon (i) such Disabling Conduct or any material
breach of this Agreement by the Subadviser, or (ii) any willful and material
failure by the Subadviser to comply with the representations and warranties set
forth in Section 1 of this Agreement; provided, however, that in no case is the
Subadviser's indemnity in favor of any person deemed to protect or apply to
such person against any liability to which such person would otherwise be
subject by reasons of willful misfeasance, bad faith, or gross negligence in
the performance of his, her or its duties or by reason of his, her or its
reckless disregard of such person's obligations and duties under this
Agreement.

                  (c) The Subadviser shall not be liable to the Adviser, the
Corporation or any such Series for (i) any acts or omissions of the Adviser,
the Corporation, the Series Administrator, or any other subadviser to the
Series with respect to the portion of the assets of a Series not managed by the
Subadviser and (ii) acts of the Subadviser which result from acts or omissions
of the Adviser, the Corporation or the Series Administrator, including, but not
limited to, a failure of the Adviser, the Corporation or the Series
Administrator to provide accurate and current information with respect to any
records maintained by the Adviser, the Corporation or the Series Administrator
or any other subadviser to a Series, which records are not also maintained by
the Subadviser and, with respect to any records maintained only by the Series
Administrator, are not otherwise available to the Subadviser from the Series
Administrator upon reasonable request. The Adviser agrees that the Subadviser
shall manage the portion of the assets of a Series allocated to it as if it was
a separate operating series and shall comply with Section 1 of this Subadvisory
Agreement (including, but not limited to, the investment objectives, policies
and restrictions applicable to a Series and qualifications of a Series as a
regulated investment company under the Code) with respect to the portion of
assets of a Series allocated to the Subadviser. The Adviser shall indemnify and
hold harmless the Indemnified Parties from and against any and all losses,
claims, damages, liabilities or litigation (including reasonable legal and
other expenses) arising from the conduct of the Adviser, the Corporation, the
Series Administrator or any other subadviser with respect to the portion of a
Series's assets not allocated to the Subadviser.

         10. Permissible Interests. Directors and agents of the Corporation are
or may be interested in the Subadviser (or any successor thereof) as directors,
partners, officers or shareholders, or otherwise; directors, partners,
officers, agents and shareholders of the Subadviser are or may be interested in
the Corporation as Directors, or otherwise; and the Subadviser (or any
successor) is or may be interested in the Corporation in some manner.

<PAGE>

         11. Term of the Agreement. This Agreement shall continue in full force
and effect with respect to each Series until two years from the date hereof,
and from year to year thereafter so long as such continuance is specifically
approved at least annually (i) by the vote of a majority of those Directors of
the Corporation who are not parties to this Agreement or interested persons of
any such party, cast in person at a meeting called for the purpose of voting on
such approval, and (ii) by the Directors of the Corporation or by vote of a
majority of the outstanding voting securities of the Series voting separately
from any other series of the Corporation.

                  With respect to each Series, this Agreement may be terminated
at any time, without payment of a penalty by the Series or the Corporation, by
vote of a majority of the Directors, or by vote of a majority of the
outstanding voting securities (as defined in the Act) of the Series, voting
separately from any other series of the Corporation, or by the Adviser, on not
less than 30 nor more than 60 days' written notice to the Subadviser. With
respect to each Series, this Agreement may be terminated by the Subadviser at
any time, without the payment of any penalty, on 90 days' written notice to the
Adviser and the Corporation; provided, however, that this Agreement may not be
terminated by the Subadviser unless another subadvisory agreement has been
approved by the Corporation in accordance with the Act, or after six months'
written notice, whichever is earlier. In the event of such a termination by the
Subadviser, the Adviser will use its best efforts, and cause the Corporation to
use its best efforts, to engage another subadviser for the Series as soon as
possible. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Subadviser may terminate the
Agreement on 60 days' written notice to the Adviser and the Corporation, in the
event of a breach of this Agreement by the Adviser. The termination of this
Agreement with respect to any Series or the addition of any Series to Schedule
A hereto (in the manner required by the Act) shall not affect the continued
effectiveness of this Agreement with respect to each other Series subject
hereto. This Agreement shall automatically terminate in the event of its
assignment (as defined by the Act).

                  This Agreement will also terminate in the event that the
Advisory Agreement by and between the Corporation and the Adviser is
terminated.

         12. Severability. If any provision of this Agreement shall be held or
made invalid by a court decision, statute, rule or otherwise, the remainder of
this Agreement shall not be affected thereby.

         13. Amendments. This Agreement may be amended by mutual consent in
writing, but the consent of the Corporation must be obtained in conformity with
the requirements of the Act.

         14. Governing Law. This Agreement shall be construed in accordance
with the laws of the State of New York and the applicable provisions of the
Act. To the extent the applicable laws of the State of New York, or any of the
provisions herein, conflict with the applicable provisions of the Act, the
latter shall control.

         15. Separate Series. Pursuant to the provisions of the Articles of
Incorporation and the General Laws of the State of Maryland, each Series is a
separate series of the Corporation, and all debts, liabilities, obligations and
expenses of a particular Series shall be enforceable only against the assets of
that Series and not against the assets of any other Series or of the
Corporation as a whole.

                             SUBADVISORY AGREEMENT


                  This SUBADVISORY AGREEMENT is dated as of August 20, 1997 by
and between SUNAMERICA ASSET MANAGEMENT CORP., a Delaware corporation (the
"Adviser"), and DAVID L. BABSON & CO., INC., a Massachusetts corporation (the
"Subadviser").

                                  WITNESSETH:

         WHEREAS, the Adviser and Style Select Series, Inc., a Maryland
corporation (the "Corporation"), have entered into an Investment Advisory and
Management Agreement dated as of September 17, 1996, as amended August 20, 1997
(the "Advisory Agreement"), pursuant to which the Adviser has agreed to provide
investment management, advisory and administrative services to the Corporation;
and

         WHEREAS, the Corporation is registered under the Investment Company
Act of 1940, as amended (the "Act"), as an open-end management investment
company and may issue shares of common stock, par value $.0001 per share, in
separately designated series representing separate funds with their own
investment objectives, policies and purposes; and

         WHEREAS, the Subadviser is engaged in the business of rendering
investment advisory services and is registered as an investment adviser under
the Investment Advisers Act of 1940, as amended; and

         WHEREAS, the Adviser desires to retain the Subadviser to furnish
investment advisory services to the investment series of the Corporation listed
on Schedule A attached hereto (the "Portfolio"), and the Subadviser is willing
to furnish such services;

         NOW, THEREFORE, it is hereby agreed between the parties hereto as
follows:

         1. Duties of the Subadviser. (a) The Adviser hereby engages the
services of the Subadviser in furtherance of its Advisory Agreement with the
Corporation. Pursuant to this Subadvisory Agreement and subject to the
oversight and review of the Adviser, the Subadviser will manage the investment
and reinvestment of a portion of the assets of each Portfolio listed on
Schedule A attached hereto. The Subadviser will determine in its discretion and
subject to the oversight and review of the Adviser, the securities to be
purchased or sold, will provide the Adviser with records concerning its
activities which the Adviser of the Corporation is required to maintain, and
will render regular reports to the Adviser and to officers and Directors of the
Corporation concerning its discharge of the foregoing responsibilities. The
Subadviser shall discharge the foregoing responsibilities subject to the
control of the officers and the Directors of the Corporation and in compliance
with such policies as the Directors of the Corporation may from time to time
establish, and in compliance with (a) the objectives, policies and limitations
for the Portfolio set forth in the Corporation's current prospectus and
statement of additional information, and (b) applicable laws and regulations.

<PAGE>

                  The Subadviser represents and warrants to the Adviser that
the portion of the assets which it manages of the Portfolio set forth in
Schedule A will at all times be operated and managed in compliance with all
applicable federal and state laws governing its operations and investments.
Without limiting the foregoing, the Subadviser agrees to manage that portion of
the assets of the Portfolio allocated to it (1) so that it qualifies to be
treated as a "regulated investment company" under Subchapter M, Chapter 1 of
the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"), and (2) in
compliance with (a) the provisions of the Act and rules adopted thereunder; and
(b) applicable federal and state securities, commodities and banking laws. The
Subadviser further represents and warrants that to the extent that any
statements or omissions made in any Registration Statement for shares of the
Corporation, or any amendment or supplement thereto, are made in reliance upon
and in conformity with information furnished by the Subadviser expressly for
use therein, such parts of such Registration Statement and any amendments or
supplements thereto consisting of such statements or omissions will, when they
become effective, conform in all material respects to the requirements of the
Securities Act of 1933 and the rules and regulations of the Commission
thereunder (the "1933 Act") and the Act and will not contain any untrue
statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be
stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading.

                  The Subadviser accepts such employment and agrees, at its own
expense, to render the services set forth herein and to provide the office
space, furnishings, equipment and personnel required by it to perform such
services on the terms and for the compensation provided in this Agreement.

                  (b) The Subadviser agrees to maintain a reasonable level of
errors and omissions or professional liability insurance coverage.

         2. Portfolio Transactions. The Subadviser is responsible for decisions
to buy or sell securities and other investments for a portion of the assets of
each Portfolio, broker-dealers and futures commission merchants' selection, and
negotiation of brokerage commission and futures commission merchants' rates. As
a general matter, in executing Portfolio transactions, the Subadviser may
employ or deal with such broker-dealers or futures commission merchants as may,
in the Subadviser's best judgment, provide prompt and reliable execution of the
transactions at favorable prices and reasonable commission rates. In selecting
such broker-dealers or futures commission merchants, the Subadviser shall
consider all relevant factors including price (including the applicable
brokerage commission, dealer spread or futures commission merchant rate), the
size of the order, the nature of the market for the security or other
investment, the timing of the transaction, the reputation, experience and
financial stability of the broker-dealer or futures commission merchant
involved, the quality of the service, the difficulty of execution, the
execution capabilities and operational facilities of the firm involved, and, in
the case of securities, the firm's risk in positioning a block of securities.
Subject to such policies as the Directors may determine and consistent with
Section 28(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "1934
Act"), the Subadviser shall not be deemed to have acted unlawfully or to have
breached any duty created by this Agreement or otherwise solely by reason of
the Subadviser's having caused a Portfolio to pay a member of an exchange,
broker or dealer an amount of commission for effecting a securities transaction
in excess of the amount of commission another member of an exchange, broker or
dealer would have charged for effecting that transaction, if the Subadviser
determines in good faith that such amount of commission was reasonable in
relation to the value of the brokerage and research services provided by such
member of an exchange, broker or dealer viewed in terms of either that
particular transaction or the

                                      -2-

<PAGE>

Subadviser's overall responsibilities with respect to such Portfolio and to
other clients as to which the Subadviser exercises investment discretion. In
accordance with Section 11(a) of the 1934 Act and Rule 11a2-2(T) thereunder,
and subject to any other applicable laws and regulations including Section
17(e) of the Act and Rule 17e-1 thereunder, the Subadviser may engage its
affiliates, the Adviser and its affiliates or any other subadviser to the
Corporation and its respective affiliates, as broker-dealers or futures
commission merchants to effect Portfolio transactions in securities and other
investments for a Portfolio. The Subadviser will promptly communicate to the
Adviser and to the officers and the Directors of the Corporation such
information relating to Portfolio transactions as they may reasonably request.
To the extent consistent with applicable law, the Subadviser may aggregate
purchase or sell orders for the Portfolio with contemporaneous purchase or sell
orders of other clients of the Subadviser or its affiliated persons. In such
event, allocation of the securities so purchased or sold, as well as the
expenses incurred in the transaction, will be made by the Subadviser in the
manner the Subadviser determines to be equitable and consistent with its and
its affilates' fiduciary obligations to the Portfolio and to such other
clients. The Adviser hereby acknowledges that such aggregation of orders may
not result in more favorable pricing or lower brokerage commissions in all
instances.

         3. Compensation of the Subadviser. The Subadviser shall not be
entitled to receive any payment from the Corporation and shall look solely and
exclusively to the Adviser for payment of all fees for the services rendered,
facilities furnished and expenses paid by it hereunder. As full compensation
for the Subadviser under this Agreement, the Adviser agrees to pay to the
Subadviser a fee at the annual rates set forth in Schedule A hereto with
respect to the portion of the assets managed by the Subadviser for each
Portfolio listed thereon. Such fee shall be accrued daily and paid monthly as
soon as practicable after the end of each month (i.e., the applicable annual
fee rate divided by 365 applied to each prior days' net assets in order to
calculate the daily accrual). If the Subadviser shall provide its services
under this Agreement for less than the whole of any month, the foregoing
compensation shall be prorated.

         4. Other Services. At the request of the Corporation or the Adviser,
the Subadviser in its discretion may make available to the Corporation, office
facilities, equipment, personnel and other services. Such office facilities,
equipment, personnel and services shall be provided for or rendered by the
Subadviser and billed to the Corporation or the Adviser at the Subadviser's
cost.

         5. Reports. The Corporation, the Adviser and the Subadviser agree to
furnish to each other, if applicable, current prospectuses, statements of
additional information, proxy statements, reports of shareholders, certified
copies of their financial statements, and such other information with regard to
their affairs and that of the Corporation as each may reasonably request.

         6. Status of the Subadviser. The services of the Subadviser to the
Adviser and the Corporation are not to be deemed exclusive, and the Subadviser
shall be free to render similar services to others so long as its services to
the Corporation are not impaired thereby. The Subadviser shall be deemed to be
an independent contractor and shall, unless otherwise expressly provided or
authorized, have no authority to act for or represent the Corporation in any
way or otherwise be deemed an agent of the Corporation.

         7. Certain Records. The Subadviser hereby undertakes and agrees to
maintain, in the form and for the period required by Rule 31a-2 under the Act,
all records relating to the investments of the Portfolio that are required to
be maintained by the Corporation pursuant to the requirements of Rule 31a-1 of
the Act. Any records required to be maintained and preserved pursuant to the

                                      -3-

<PAGE>

provisions of Rule 31a-1 and Rule 31a-2 promulgated under the Act which are
prepared or maintained by the Subadviser on behalf of the Corporation are the
property of the Corporation and will be surrendered promptly to the Corporation
or the Adviser on request.

                  The Subadviser agrees that all accounts, books and other
records maintained and preserved by it as required hereby shall be subject at
any time, and from time to time, to such reasonable periodic, special and other
examinations by the Securities and Exchange Commission, the Corporation's
auditors, the Corporation or any representative of the Corporation, the
Adviser, or any governmental agency or other instrumentality having regulatory
authority over the Corporation.

         8. Reference to the Subadviser. Neither the Corporation nor the
Adviser or any affiliate or agent thereof shall make reference to or use the
name of the Subadviser or any of its affiliates in any advertising or
promotional materials without the prior approval of the Subadviser, which
approval shall not be unreasonably withheld.

         9. Liability of the Subadviser. (a) In the absence of willful
misfeasance, bad faith, gross negligence or reckless disregard of obligations
or duties ("disabling conduct") hereunder on the part of the Subadviser (and
its officers, directors, partners, agents, employees, controlling persons,
shareholders and any other person or entity affiliated with the Subadviser),
the Subadviser shall not be subject to liability to the Corporation or to any
shareholder of the Corporation for any act or omission in the course of, or
connected with, rendering services hereunder, including without limitation, any
error of judgment or mistake of law or for any loss suffered by any of them in
connection with the matters to which this Agreement relates, except to the
extent specified in Section 36(b) of the Act concerning loss resulting from a
breach of fiduciary duty with respect to the receipt of compensation for
services. Except for such disabling conduct, the Adviser shall indemnify the
Subadviser (and its officers, directors, partners, agents, employees,
controlling persons, shareholders and any other person or entity affiliated
with the Subadviser) (collectively, the "Indemnified Parties") from any
liability arising from the Subadviser's conduct under this Agreement.

                  (b) The Subadviser agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the
Adviser and its affiliates and each of its directors and officers and each
person, if any, who controls the Adviser within the meaning of Section 15 of
the 1933 Act against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities or
litigation (including legal and other expenses), to which the Adviser or its
affiliates or such directors, officers or controlling person may become subject
under the 1933 Act, under other statutes, at common law or otherwise, which may
be based upon (i) any breach of this Agreement by the Subadviser, or (ii) any
failure by the Subadviser to comply with the representations and warranties set
forth in Section 1 of this Agreement; provided, however, that in no case is the
Subadviser's indemnity in favor of any person deemed to protect such other
persons against any liability to which such person would otherwise be subject
by reasons of willful misfeasance, bad faith, or gross negligence in the
performance of his, her or its duties or by reason of his, her or its reckless
disregard of obligation and duties under this Agreement.

                  (c) The Subadviser shall not be liable to the Adviser for (i)
any acts of the Adviser or any other subadviser to the Portfolio with respect
to the portion of the assets of a Portfolio not managed by the Subadviser and
(ii) acts of the Subadviser which result from acts of the Adviser, including,
but not limited to, a failure of the Adviser to provide accurate and current
information with respect to any records maintained by the Adviser or any other
subadviser to a Portfolio, which records are not also maintained by or
otherwise available to the Subadviser upon reasonable request.

                                      -4-

<PAGE>

The Adviser agrees that the Subadviser shall manage the portion of the assets
of a Portfolio allocated to it as if it was a separate operating Portfolio and
shall comply with subsections (a) and (b) of Section 1 of this Subadvisory
Agreement (including, but not limited to, the investment objectives, policies
and restrictions applicable to a Portfolio and qualifications of a Portfolio as
a regulated investment company under the Code) with respect to the portion of
assets of a Portfolio allocated to the Subadviser. The Adviser shall indemnify
the Indemnified Parties from any liability arising from the conduct of the
Adviser and any other subadviser with respect to the portion of a Portfolio's
assets not allocated to the Subadviser.

         10. Permissible Interests. Directors and agents of the Corporation are
or may be interested in the Subadviser (or any successor thereof) as directors,
partners, officers or shareholders, or otherwise; directors, partners,
officers, agents and shareholders of the Subadviser are or may be interested in
the Corporation as Directors, or otherwise; and the Subadviser (or any
successor) is or may be interested in the Corporation in some manner.

         11. Term of the Agreement. This Agreement shall continue in full force
and effect with respect to each Portfolio until two years from the date hereof,
and from year to year thereafter so long as such continuance is specifically
approved at least annually (i) by the vote of a majority of those Directors of
the Corporation who are not parties to this Agreement or interested persons of
any such party, cast in person at a meeting called for the purpose of voting on
such approval, and (ii) by the Directors of the Corporation or by vote of a
majority of the outstanding voting securities of the Portfolio voting
separately from any other series of the Corporation.

                  With respect to each Portfolio, this Agreement may be
terminated at any time, without payment of a penalty by the Portfolio or the
Corporation, by vote of a majority of the Directors, or by vote of a majority
of the outstanding voting securities (as defined in the Act) of the Portfolio,
voting separately from any other series of the Corporation, or by the Adviser,
on not less than 30 nor more than 60 days' written notice to the Subadviser.
With respect to each Portfolio, this Agreement may be terminated by the
Subadviser at any time, without the payment of any penalty, on 90 days' written
notice to the Adviser and the Corporation; provided, however, that this
Agreement may not be terminated by the Subadviser unless another subadvisory
agreement has been approved by the Corporation in accordance with the Act, or
after six months' written notice, whichever is earlier. The termination of this
Agreement with respect to any Portfolio or the addition of any Portfolio to
Schedule A hereto (in the manner required by the Act), shall not affect the
continued effectiveness of this Agreement with respect to each other Portfolio
subject hereto. This Agreement shall automatically terminate in the event of
its assignment (as defined by the Act).

                  This Agreement will also terminate in the event that the
Advisory Agreement by and between the Corporation and the Adviser is
terminated.

         12. Severability. If any provision of this Agreement shall be held or
made invalid by a court decision, statute, rule or otherwise, the remainder of
this Agreement shall not be affected thereby.

         13. Amendments. This Agreement may be amended by mutual consent in
writing, but the consent of the Corporation must be obtained in conformity with
the requirements of the Act.

                                      -5-

         14. Governing Law. This Agreement shall be construed in accordance
with the laws of the State of New York and the applicable provisions of the
Act. To the extent the applicable laws of the State of New York, or any of the
provisions herein, conflict with the applicable provisions of the Act, the
latter shall control.

         15. Separate Series. Pursuant to the provisions of the Articles of
Incorporation and the General Laws of the State of Maryland, each Portfolio is
a separate series of the Corporation, and all debts, liabilities, obligations
and expenses of a particular Portfolio shall be enforceable only against the
assets of that Portfolio and not against the assets of any other Portfolio or
of the Corporation as a whole.

         16. Notices. All notices shall be in writing and deemed properly given
when delivered or mailed by United States certified or registered mail, return
receipt requested, postage prepaid, addressed as follows:

                          SUBADVISORY AGREEMENT



                  This SUBADVISORY AGREEMENT is dated as of September 17,
1996, as amended August 20, 1997, by and between SUNAMERICA ASSET
MANAGEMENT CORP., a Delaware corporation (the "Adviser"), and DAVIS
SELECTED ADVISERS, L.P., a Colorado limited partnership (the
"Subadviser").



                               WITNESSETH:

         WHEREAS, the Adviser and Style Select Series, Inc., a Maryland
corporation (the "Corporation"), have entered into an Investment Advisory
and Management Agreement dated as of September 17, 1996, as amended
August 20, 1997 (the "Advisory Agreement"), pursuant to which the Adviser
has agreed to provide investment management, advisory and administrative
services to the Corporation; and

         WHEREAS, the Corporation is registered under the Investment
Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "Act"), as an open-end management
investment company and may issue shares of common stock, par value $.0001
per share, in separately designated series representing separate funds
with their own investment objectives, policies and purposes; and

         WHEREAS, the Subadviser is engaged in the business of rendering
investment advisory services and is registered as an investment adviser
under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940, as amended; and

         WHEREAS, the Adviser desires to retain the Subadviser to furnish
investment advisory services to the investment series of the Corporation
listed on Schedule A attached hereto (the "Portfolio"), and the
Subadviser is willing to furnish such services;

         NOW, THEREFORE, it is hereby agreed between the parties hereto
as follows:

         1. Duties of the Subadviser. (a) The Adviser hereby engages the
services of the Subadviser in furtherance of its Investment Advisory and
Management Agreement with the Corporation. Pursuant to this Subadvisory
Agreement and subject to the oversight and review of the Adviser, the
Subadviser will manage the investment and reinvestment of a portion of
the assets of each Portfolio listed on Schedule A attached hereto. The
Subadviser will determine in its discretion and subject to the oversight
and review of the Adviser, the securities to be purchased or sold, will
provide the Adviser with records concerning its activities which the
Adviser or the Corporation is required to maintain, and will render
regular reports to the Adviser and to officers and Directors of the
Corporation concerning its discharge of the foregoing responsibilities.
The Subadviser shall discharge the foregoing responsibilities subject to
the control of the officers and the Directors of the Corporation and in
compliance with such policies as the Directors of the Corporation may
from time to time establish, and in compliance with (a) the objectives,
policies, and limitations for the Portfolio set forth in the
Corporation's current prospectus and statement of additional information,
and (b) applicable laws and regulations.


<PAGE>



                  The Subadviser represents and warrants to the Adviser
that the portion of the assets which it manages of the Portfolio set
forth in Schedule A will at all times be operated and managed in
compliance with the current prospectus and statement of additional
information. The Subadviser further represents and warrants that to the
extent that any statements or omissions made in any Registration
Statement for shares of the Corporation, or any amendment or supplement
thereto, are made in reliance upon and in conformity with information
furnished by the Subadviser expressly for use therein, such Registration
Statement and any amendments or supplements thereto will, when they
become effective, conform in all material respects to the requirements of
the Securities Act of 1933 and the rules and regulations of the
Commission thereunder (the "1933 Act") and the Act and will not contain
any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material
fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements
therein not misleading.

                  The Subadviser accepts such employment and agrees, at
its own expense, to render the services set forth herein and to provide
the office space, furnishings, equipment and personnel required by it to
perform such services on the terms and for the compensation provided in
this Agreement.

                  (b) In performing its investment advisory services,
Subadviser, while remaining ultimately responsible for management of the
portion of the assets of the Portfolio allocated to it, may draw on the
research and market expertise of its affiliate offices, including Davis
Selected Advisers - NY, Inc., its New York affiliate, for portfolio
decisions and management.

                  (c) The Subadviser agrees to maintain a level of errors
and omissions or professional liability insurance coverage that is from
time to time satisfactory to the Adviser.

         2. Portfolio Transactions. The Subadviser is responsible for
decisions to buy or sell securities and other investments for a portion
of the assets of each Portfolio, broker-dealers and futures commission
merchants' selection, and negotiation of brokerage commission and futures
commission merchants' rates. As a general matter, in executing Portfolio
transactions, the Subadviser may employ or deal with such broker-dealers
or futures commission merchants as may, in the Subadviser's best
judgement, provide prompt and reliable execution of the transactions at
favorable prices and reasonable commission rates. In selecting such
broker-dealers or futures commission merchants, the Subadviser shall
consider all relevant factors including price (including the applicable
brokerage commission, dealer spread or futures commission merchant rate),
the size of the order, the nature of the market for the security or other
investment, the timing of the transaction, the reputation, experience and
financial stability of the broker-dealer or futures commission merchant
involved, the quality of the service, the difficulty of execution, the
execution capabilities and operational facilities of the firm involved,
and, in the case of securities, the firm's risk in positioning a block of
securities. Subject to such policies as the Directors may determine and
consistent with Section 28(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as
amended (the "1934 Act"), the Subadviser shall not be deemed to have
acted unlawfully or to have breached any duty created by this Agreement
or otherwise solely by reason of the Subadviser's having caused a
Portfolio to pay a member of an exchange, broker or dealer an amount of
commission for effecting a securities transaction in excess of the amount
of commission another member of an exchange, broker or dealer would have
charged for effecting that transaction, if the Subadviser determines in
good faith that such amount of commission was 

                                   -2-

<PAGE>

reasonable in relation to the value of the brokerage and research
services provided by such member of an exchange, broker or dealer viewed
in terms of either that particular transaction or the Subadviser's
overall responsibilities with respect to such Portfolio and to other
clients as to which the Subadviser exercises investment discretion. In
accordance with Section 11(a) of the 1934 Act and Rule 11a2-2(T)
thereunder, and subject to any other applicable laws and regulations
including Section 17(e) of the Act and Rule 17e-1 thereunder, the
Subadviser may engage its affiliates, the Adviser and its affiliates or
any other subadviser to the Corporation and its respective affiliates, as
broker-dealers or futures commission merchants to effect Portfolio
transactions in securities and other investments for a Portfolio. The
Subadviser will promptly communicate to the Adviser and to the officers
and the Directors of the Corporation such information relating to
Portfolio transactions as they may reasonably request. To the extent
consistent with applicable law, the Subadviser may aggregate purchase or
sell orders for the Portfolio with contemporaneous purchase or sell
orders of other clients of the Subadviser or its affiliated persons. In
such event, allocation of the securities so purchased or sold, as well as
the expenses incurred in the transaction, will be made by the Subadviser
in the manner the Subadviser determines to be equitable and consistent
with its and its affiliates' fiduciary obligations to the Portfolio and
to such other clients. The Adviser hereby acknowledges that such
aggregation of orders may not result in more favorable pricing or lower
brokerage commissions in all instances.

         3. Compensation of the Subadviser. The Subadviser shall not be
entitled to receive any payment from the Corporation and shall look
solely and exclusively to the Adviser for payment of all fees for the
services rendered, facilities furnished and expenses paid by it
hereunder. As full compensation for the Subadviser under this Agreement,
the Adviser agrees to pay to the Subadviser a fee at the annual rates set
forth in Schedule A hereto with respect to the portion of the assets
managed by the Subadviser for each Portfolio listed thereon. Such fee
shall be accrued daily and paid monthly as soon as practicable after the
end of each month (i.e., the applicable annual fee rate divided by 365
applied to each prior days' net assets in order to calculate the daily
accrual). If the Subadviser shall provide its services under this
Agreement for less than the whole of any month, the foregoing
compensation shall be prorated.

         4. Other Services. At the request of the Corporation or the
Adviser, the Subadviser in its discretion may make available to the
Corporation, office facilities, equipment, personnel and other services.
Such office facilities, equipment, personnel and services shall be
provided for or rendered by the Subadviser and billed to the Corporation
or the Adviser at a mutually agreed-upon fee.

         5. Reports. The Corporation, the Adviser and the Subadviser
agree to furnish to each other, if applicable, current prospectuses,
statements of additional information, proxy statements, reports of
shareholders, certified copies of their financial statements, and such
other information with regard to their affairs and that of the
Corporation as each may reasonably request.

         6. Status of the Subadviser. The services of the Subadviser to
the Adviser and the Corporation are not to be deemed exclusive, and the
Subadviser shall be free to render similar services to others so long as
its services to the Corporation are not impaired thereby. The Subadviser
shall be deemed to be an independent contractor and shall, unless
otherwise expressly provided or authorized, have no authority to act for
or represent the Corporation in any way or otherwise be deemed an agent
of the Corporation.

                                   -3-

<PAGE>

         7. Certain Records. The Subadviser hereby undertakes and agrees
to maintain, in the form and for the period required by Rule 31a-2 under
the Act, all records relating to the investments of the Portfolio that
are required to be maintained by the Corporation pursuant to the
requirements of Rule 31a-1 of that Act. Any records required to be
maintained and preserved pursuant to the provisions of Rule 31a-1 and
Rule 31a-2 promulgated under the Act which are prepared or maintained by
the Subadviser on behalf of the Corporation, which are not otherwise
available to the Corporation, are the property of the Corporation and
will be surrendered promptly to the Corporation or the Adviser on
request.

            The Subadviser agrees that all accounts, books and other records 
relating to the Corporation, or any Portfolio thereof, maintained and
preserved by it as required hereby shall be subject at any time, and from
time to time, to such reasonable periodic, special and other examinations
by the Securities and Exchange Commission, the Corporation's auditors,
the Corporation or any representative of the Corporation, the Adviser, or
any governmental agency or other instrumentality having regulatory
authority over the Corporation.

         8. Reference to the Subadviser. Neither the Corporation nor the
Adviser or any affiliate or agent thereof shall make reference to or use
the name of the Subadviser or any of its affiliates in any advertising or
promotional materials without the prior approval of the Subadviser, which
approval shall not be unreasonably withheld.

         9. Liability of the Subadviser. (a) In the absence of willful
misfeasance, bad faith, gross negligence or reckless disregard of
obligations or duties ("disabling conduct") hereunder on the part of the
Subadviser (and its officers, directors, agents, employees, controlling
persons, shareholders and any other person or entity affiliated with the
Subadviser) the Subadviser shall not be subject to liability to the
Corporation or to any shareholder of the Corporation for any act or
omission in the course of, or connected with, rendering services
hereunder, including without limitation, any error of judgment or mistake
of law or for any loss suffered by any of them in connection with the
matters to which this Agreement relates, except to the extent specified
in Section 36(b) of the Act concerning loss resulting from a breach of
fiduciary duty with respect to the receipt of compensation for services.
Except for such disabling conduct, the Adviser shall indemnify the
Subadviser (and its officers, directors, partners, agents, employees,
controlling persons, shareholders and any other person or entity
affiliated with the Subadviser) (collectively, the "Indemnified Parties")
from any liability arising from the Subadviser's conduct under this
Agreement.

            (b) The Subadviser agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the 
Adviser and its affiliates and each of its directors and officers and
each person, if any, who controls the Adviser within the meaning of
Section 15 of the 1933 Act against any and all losses, claims, damages,
liabilities or litigation (including legal and other expenses), to which
the Adviser or its affiliates or such directors, officers or controlling
person may become subject under the 1933 Act, under other statutes, at
common law or otherwise, which may be based upon (i) any wrongful act or
breach of this Agreement by the Subadviser, or (ii) any failure by the
Subadviser to comply with the representations and warranties set forth in
Section 1 of this Agreement; provided, however, that in no case is the
Subadviser's indemnity in favor of any person deemed to protect such
other persons against any liability to which such person would otherwise
be subject by reasons of willful 

                                   -4-

misfeasance, bad faith, or gross negligence in the performance of his,
her or its duties or by reason of his, her or its reckless disregard of
obligation and duties under this Agreement.

             (c) The Subadviser shall not be liable to the Adviser
for (i) any acts of the Adviser or any other subadviser to the Portfolio
with respect to the portion of the assets of a Portfolio not managed by
Subadviser and (ii) acts of the Subadviser which result from acts of the
Adviser, including, but not limited to, a failure of the Adviser to
provide accurate and current information with respect to any records
maintained by Adviser or any other subadviser to a Portfolio, which
records are not also maintained by or otherwise available to the
Subadviser upon reasonable request. The Adviser agrees that Subadviser
shall manage the portion of the assets of a Portfolio allocated to it as
if it was a separate operating Portfolio and shall comply with
subsections (a) and (b) of Section I of this Subadvisory Agreement
(including, but not limited to, the investment objectives, policies and
restrictions applicable to a Portfolio and qualifications of a Portfolio
as a regulated investment company under the Code) with respect to the
portion of assets of a Portfolio allocated to Subadviser. The Adviser
shall indemnify the Indemnified Parties from any liability arising from
the conduct of the Adviser and any other subadviser with respect to the
portion of a Portfolio's assets not allocated to Subadviser.

         10. Permissible Interests. Directors and agents of the
Corporation are or may be interested in the Subadviser (or any successor
thereof) as directors, partners, officers, or shareholders, or otherwise;
directors, partners, officers, agents, and shareholders of the Subadviser
are or may be interested in the Corporation as Directors, or otherwise;
and the Subadviser (or any successor) is or may be interested in the
Corporation in some manner.

         11. Term of the Agreement. This Agreement shall continue in full
force and effect with respect to each Portfolio until two years from the
date hereof, and from year to year thereafter so long as such continuance
is specifically approved at least annually (i) by the vote of a majority
of those Directors of the Corporation who are not parties to this
Agreement or interested persons of any such party, cast in person at a
meeting called for the purpose of voting on such approval, and (ii) by
the Directors of the Corporation or by vote of a majority of the
outstanding voting securities of the Portfolio voting separately from any
other series of the Corporation.

             With respect to each Portfolio, this Agreement may be
terminated at any time, without payment of a penalty by the Portfolio or
the Corporation, by vote of a majority of the Directors, or by vote of a
majority of the outstanding voting securities (as defined in the Act) of
the Portfolio, voting separately from any other series of the
Corporation, or by the Adviser, on not less than 30 nor more than 60
days' written notice to the Subadviser. With respect to each Portfolio,
this Agreement may be terminated by the Subadviser at any time, without
the payment of any penalty, on 90 days' written notice to the Adviser and
the Corporation; provided, however, that this Agreement may not be
terminated by the Subadviser unless another subadvisory agreement has
been approved by the Corporation in accordance with the Act, or after six
months' written notice, whichever is earlier. The termination of this
Agreement with respect to any Portfolio or the addition of any Portfolio
to Schedule A hereto (in the manner required by the Act) shall not affect
the continued effectiveness of this Agreement with respect to each other
Portfolio subject hereto. This Agreement shall automatically terminate in
the event of its assignment (as defined by the Act).

             This Agreement will also terminate in the event that
the Advisory Agreement by and between the Corporation and the Adviser is
terminated.

         12. Severability. If any provision of this Agreement shall be
held or made invalid by a court decision, statute, rule or otherwise, the
remainder of this Agreement shall not be affected thereby.

         13. Amendments. This Agreement may be amended by mutual consent
in writing, but the consent of the Corporation must be obtained in
conformity with the requirements of the Act.

         14. Governing Law. This Agreement shall be construed in
accordance with the laws of the State of New York and the applicable
provisions of the Act. To the extent the applicable laws of the State of
New York, or any of the provisions herein, conflict with the applicable
provisions of the Act, the latter shall control.

         15. Separate Series. Pursuant to the provisions of the Articles
of Incorporation and the General Laws of the State of Maryland, each
Portfolio is a separate series of the Corporation, and all debts,
liabilities, obligations and expenses of a particular Portfolio shall be
enforceable only against the assets of that Portfolio and not against the
assets of any other Portfolio or of the Corporation as a whole.

         16. Notices. All notices shall be in writing and deemed properly
given when delivered or mailed by United States certified or registered
mail, return receipt requested, postage prepaid, addressed as follows:

                             SUBADVISORY AGREEMENT


                  This SUBADVISORY AGREEMENT is dated as of August 20, 1997 by
and between SUNAMERICA ASSET MANAGEMENT CORP., a Delaware corporation (the
"Adviser"), and THE GLENMEDE TRUST COMPANY, a Pennsylvania Trust Company (the
"Subadviser").


                                  WITNESSETH:

         WHEREAS, the Adviser and Style Select Series, Inc., a Maryland
corporation (the "Corporation"), have entered into an Investment Advisory and
Management Agreement dated as of September 17, 1996, as amended August 20, 1997
(the "Advisory Agreement"), pursuant to which the Adviser has agreed to provide
investment management, advisory and administrative services to the Corporation;
and

         WHEREAS, the Corporation is registered under the Investment Company
Act of 1940, as amended (the "Act"), as an open-end management investment
company and may issue shares of common stock, par value $.0001 per share, in
separately designated series representing separate funds with their own
investment objectives, policies and purposes; and

         WHEREAS, the Subadviser is engaged in the business of rendering
investment advisory services and is a bank, qualified to act, and exempt from
registration as an investment adviser under the Investment Advisers Act of
1940, as amended; and

         WHEREAS, the Adviser desires to retain the Subadviser to furnish
investment advisory services to the investment series of the Corporation listed
on Schedule A attached hereto (the "Portfolio"), and the Subadviser is willing
to furnish such services;

         NOW, THEREFORE, it is hereby agreed between the parties hereto as
follows:

         1. Duties of the Subadviser. (a) The Adviser hereby engages the
services of the Subadviser in furtherance of its Advisory Agreement with the
Corporation. Pursuant to this Subadvisory Agreement and subject to the
oversight and review of the Adviser, the Subadviser will manage the investment
and reinvestment of a portion of the assets of each Portfolio listed on
Schedule A attached hereto. The Subadviser will determine in its discretion and
subject to the oversight and review of the Adviser, the securities to be
purchased or sold, will provide the Adviser with records concerning its
activities which the Adviser of the Corporation is required to maintain, and
will render regular reports to the Adviser and to officers and Directors of the
Corporation concerning its discharge of the foregoing responsibilities. The
Subadviser shall discharge the foregoing responsibilities subject to the
control of the officers and the Directors of the Corporation and in compliance
with such policies as the Directors of the Corporation may from time to time
establish, and in compliance with (a) the objectives, policies and limitations
for the Portfolio set forth in the Corporation's current prospectus and
statement of additional information, and (b) applicable laws and regulations.
                                      
<PAGE>

                  The Subadviser represents and warrants to the Adviser that
the portion of the assets which it manages of the Portfolio set forth in
Schedule A will at all times be managed in compliance with all applicable
federal and state laws governing its operations and investments. Without
limiting the foregoing, the Subadviser agrees to manage that portion of the
assets of the Portfolio allocated to it (1) so that it qualifies to be treated
as a "regulated investment company" under Subchapter M, chapter 1 of the
Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"), and (2) in compliance
with (a) the provisions of the Act and rules adopted thereunder; (b) and
applicable federal and state securities, commodities and banking laws. The
Subadviser further represents and warrants that to the extent that any
statements or omissions made in any Registration Statement for shares of the
Corporation, or any amendment or supplement thereto, are made in reliance upon
and in conformity with written information furnished by the Subadviser
expressly for use therein, such parts of such Registration Statement and any
amendments or supplements thereto consisting of such statements or omissions
will, when they become effective, conform in all material respects to the
requirements of the Securities Act of 1933 and the rules and regulations of the
Commission thereunder (the "1933 Act") and the Act and will not contain any
untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required
to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not
misleading.

                  The Subadviser accepts such employment and agrees, at its own
expense, to render the services set forth herein and to provide the office
space, furnishings, equipment and personnel required by it to perform such
services on the terms and for the compensation provided in this Agreement.

                  (b) The Subadviser agrees to maintain a reasonable level of
errors and omissions or professional liability insurance coverage.

         2. Portfolio Transactions. The Subadviser is responsible for decisions
to buy or sell securities and other investments for a portion of the assets of
each Portfolio, broker-dealers and futures commission merchants' selection, and
negotiation of brokerage commission and futures commission merchants' rates. As
a general matter, in executing Portfolio transactions, the Subadviser may
employ or deal with such broker-dealers or futures commission merchants as may,
in the Subadviser's best judgment, provide prompt and reliable execution of the
transactions at favorable prices and reasonable commission rates. In selecting
such broker-dealers or futures commission merchants, the Subadviser shall
consider all relevant factors including price (including the applicable
brokerage commission, dealer spread or futures commission merchant rate), the
size of the order, the nature of the market for the security or other
investment, the timing of the transaction, the reputation, experience and
financial stability of the broker-dealer or futures commission merchant
involved, the quality of the service, the difficulty of execution, the
execution capabilities and operational facilities of the firm involved, and, in
the case of securities, the firm's risk in positioning a block of securities.
Subject to such policies as the Directors may determine and, consistent with
Section 28(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "1934
Act"), the Subadviser shall not be deemed to have acted unlawfully or to have
breached any duty created by this Agreement or otherwise solely by reason of
the Subadviser's having caused a Portfolio to pay a member of an exchange,
broker or dealer an amount of commission for effecting a securities transaction
in excess of the amount of commission another member of an exchange, broker or
dealer would have charged for effecting that transaction, if the Subadviser
determines in good faith that such amount of commission was reasonable in
relation to the value of the brokerage and research services provided by such
member of an exchange, broker or dealer viewed in terms of either that
particular transaction or the

                                      -2-

<PAGE>

Subadviser's overall responsibilities with respect to such Portfolio and to
other clients as to which the Subadviser exercises investment discretion. In
accordance with Section 11(a) of the 1934 Act and Rule 11a2-2(T) thereunder,
and subject to any other applicable laws and regulations including Section
17(e) of the Act and Rule 17e-1 thereunder, the Subadviser may engage its
affiliates, the Adviser and its affiliates or any other subadviser to the
Corporation and its respective affiliates, as broker-dealers or futures
commission merchants to effect Portfolio transactions in securities and other
investments for a Portfolio. The Adviser will provide to the Subadviser a list
of its affiliated broker/dealers and the affiliated broker/dealers of the other
subadvisers to the Portfolio. The Subadviser will promptly communicate to the
Adviser and to the officers and the Directors of the Corporation such
information relating to Portfolio transactions as they may reasonably request.
To the extent consistent with applicable law, the Subadviser may aggregate
purchase or sell orders for the Portfolio with contemporaneous purchase or sell
orders of other clients of the Subadviser or its affiliated persons. In such
event, allocation of the securities so purchased or sold, as well as the
expenses incurred in the transaction, will be made by the Subadviser in the
manner the Subadviser determines to be equitable and consistent with its and
its affiliates' fiduciary obligations to the Portfolio and to such other
clients. The Adviser hereby acknowledges that such aggregation of orders may
not result in more favorable pricing or lower brokerage commissions in all
instances.

         3. Compensation of the Subadviser. The Subadviser shall not be
entitled to receive any payment from the Corporation and shall look solely and
exclusively to the Adviser for payment of all fees for the services rendered,
facilities furnished and expenses paid by it hereunder. As full compensation
for the Subadviser under this Agreement, the Adviser agrees to pay to the
Subadviser a fee at the annual rates set forth in Schedule A hereto with
respect to the portion of the assets managed by the Subadviser for each
Portfolio listed thereon. Such fee shall be accrued daily and paid monthly as
soon as practicable after the end of each month (i.e., the applicable annual
fee rate divided by 365 applied to each prior days' net assets in order to
calculate the daily accrual). If the Subadviser shall provide its services
under this Agreement for less than the whole of any month, the foregoing
compensation shall be prorated.

         4. Other Services. At the request of the Corporation or the Adviser,
the Subadviser in its discretion may make available to the Corporation or the
Adviser, office facilities, equipment, personnel and other services. Such
office facilities, equipment, personnel and services shall be provided for or
rendered by the Subadviser and billed to the Corporation or the Adviser at the
Subadviser's cost.

         5. Reports. The Corporation, the Adviser and the Subadviser agree to
furnish to each other, if applicable, current prospectuses, statements of
additional information, proxy statements, reports of shareholders, certified
copies of their financial statements, and such other information with regard to
their affairs and that of the Corporation as each may reasonably request.

         6. Status of the Subadviser. The services of the Subadviser to the
Adviser and the Corporation are not be deemed exclusive, and the Subadviser
shall be free to render similar services to others so long as its services to
the Corporation are not impaired thereby. The Subadviser shall be deemed to be
an independent contractor and shall, unless otherwise expressly provided or
authorized, have no authority to act for or represent the Corporation in any
way or otherwise be deemed an agent of the Corporation.

                                      -3-

<PAGE>

         7. Certain Records. The Subadviser hereby undertakes and agrees to
maintain, in the form and for the period required by Rule 31a-2 under the Act,
all records relating to the investments of the Portfolio that are required to
be maintained by the Corporation pursuant to the requirements of Rule 31a-1 of
the Act. Any records required to be maintained and preserved pursuant to the
provisions of Rule 31a-1 and Rule 31a-2 promulgated under the Act which are
prepared or maintained by the Subadviser on behalf of the Corporation are the
property of the Corporation and will be surrendered promptly to the Corporation
or the Adviser on request.

                  The Subadviser agrees that all accounts, books and other
records maintained and preserved by it as required hereby shall be subject at
any time, and from time to time, to such reasonable periodic, special and other
examinations by the Securities and Exchange Commission, the Corporation's
auditors, the Corporation or any representative of the Corporation, the
Adviser, or any governmental agency or other instrumentality having regulatory
authority over the Corporation.

         8. Reference to the Subadviser. Neither the Corporation nor the
Adviser or any affiliate or agent thereof shall make reference to or use the
name of the Subadviser or any of its affiliates in any advertising or
promotional materials without the prior approval of the Subadviser, which
approval shall not be unreasonably withheld.

         9. Liability of the Subadviser. (a) In the absence of willful
misfeasance, bad faith, gross negligence or reckless disregard of obligations
or duties ("disabling conduct") hereunder on the part of the Subadviser (and
its officers, directors, partners, agents, employees, controlling persons,
shareholders and any other person or entity affiliated with the Subadviser),
the Subadviser shall not be subject to liability to the Corporation, the
Adviser, to any shareholder of the Corporation or to any shareholder of the
Adviser for any act or omission in the course of, or connected with, rendering
services hereunder, including without limitation, any error of judgment or
mistake of law or for any loss suffered by any of them in connection with the
matters to which this Agreement relates, except to the extent specified in
Section 36(b) of the Act concerning loss resulting from a breach of fiduciary
duty with respect to the receipt of compensation for services. Except for such
disabling conduct, the Adviser shall indemnify the Subadviser (and its
officers, directors, partners, agents, employees, controlling persons,
shareholders and any other person or entity affiliated with the Subadviser)
(collectively, the "Indemnified Parties") from any and all losses, claims,
damages, liabilities or litigation (including legal and other expenses) arising
from the Subadviser's conduct under this Agreement.

                  (b) The Subadviser agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the
Adviser and its affiliates and each of its directors and officers and each
person, if any, who controls the Adviser within the meaning of Section 15 of
the 1933 Act against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities or
litigation (including legal and other expenses), to which the Adviser or its
affiliates or such directors, officers or controlling person may become subject
under the 1933 Act, under other statutes, at common law or otherwise, which may
be based upon (i) any wrongful act or breach of this Agreement by the
Subadviser, or (ii) any failure by the Subadviser to comply with the
representations and warranties set forth in Section 1 of this Agreement;
provided, however, that in no case is the Subadviser's indemnity in favor of
the Adviser, its affiliates or of any person deemed to protect the Adviser, its
affiliates or of any such other person against any liability to which such
entity or person would otherwise be subject by reasons of willful misfeasance,
bad faith, or gross negligence in the performance of his, her or its duties or
by reason of his, her or its reckless disregard of obligation and duties under
this Agreement.

<PAGE>

                  (c) The Subadviser shall not be liable to the Adviser for (i)
any acts of the Adviser or any other subadviser to the Portfolio with respect
to the portion of the assets of a Portfolio not managed by Subadviser and (ii)
liability arising from or in connection with acts of the Adviser, including,
but not limited to, a failure of the Adviser to provide accurate and current
information with respect to any records maintained by Adviser or any other
subadviser to a Portfolio, which records are not also maintained by or
otherwise available to the Subadviser upon reasonable request. The Adviser
agrees that the Subadviser shall manage the portion of the assets of a
Portfolio allocated to it as if it was a separate operating Portfolio and shall
comply with Section 1 of this Subadvisory Agreement with respect to the portion
of assets of a Portfolio allocated to the Subadviser. The Adviser shall
indemnify the Indemnified Parties from any and all losses, claims, damages,
liabilities or litigation (including legal and other expenses) arising from the
conduct of the Adviser and any other subadviser with respect to the portion of
a Portfolio's assets not allocated to the Subadviser.

         10. Permissible Interests. Directors and agents of the Corporation are
or may be interested in the Subadviser (or any successor thereof) as directors,
partners, officers or shareholders, or otherwise; directors, partners,
officers, agents and shareholders of the Subadviser are or may be interested in
the Corporation as Directors, or otherwise; and the Subadviser (or any
successor) is or may be interested in the Corporation in some manner.

         11. Term of the Agreement. This Agreement shall continue in full force
and effect with respect to each Portfolio until two years from the date hereof,
and from year to year thereafter so long as such continuance is specifically
approved at least annually (i) by the vote of a majority of those Directors of
the Corporation who are not parties to this Agreement or interested persons of
any such party, cast in person at a meeting called for the purpose of voting on
such approval, and (ii) by the Directors of the Corporation or by vote of a
majority of the outstanding voting securities of the Portfolio voting
separately from any other series of the Corporation.

                  With respect to each Portfolio, this Agreement may be
terminated at any time, without payment of a penalty by the Portfolio or the
Corporation, by vote of a majority of the Directors, or by vote of a majority
of the outstanding voting securities (as defined in the Act) of the Portfolio,
voting separately from any other series of the Corporation, or by the Adviser,
on not less than 30 nor more than 60 days' written notice to the Subadviser.
With respect to each Portfolio, this Agreement may be terminated by the
Subadviser at any time, without the payment of any penalty, on 90 days' written
notice to the Adviser and the corporation; provided, however, that this
Agreement may not be terminated by the Subadviser unless another subadvisory
agreement has been approved by the Corporation in accordance with the Act, or
after six months' written notice, whichever is earlier. In the event of such a
termination, the Adviser will use its best efforts, and will cause the
Corporation to use its best efforts, to engage another subadviser for the
Portfolio as soon as possible. The termination of this Agreement with respect
to any Portfolio or the addition of any Portfolio to Schedule A hereto (in the
manner required by the Act) shall not affect the continued effectiveness of
this Agreement with respect to each other Portfolio subject hereto. This
Agreement shall automatically terminate in the event of its assignment (as
defined by the Act).

                  This Agreement will also terminate in the event that the
Advisory Agreement by and between the Corporation and the Adviser is
terminated.

         12. Severability. If any provision of this Agreement shall be held or
made invalid by a court decision, statute, rule or otherwise, the remainder of
this Agreement shall not be affected thereby.

         13. Amendments. This Agreement may be amended by mutual consent in
writing, but the consent of the Corporation must be obtained in conformity with
the requirements of the Act.

         14. Governing Law. This Agreement shall be construed in accordance
with the laws of the State of New York and the applicable provisions of the
Act. To the extent the applicable laws of the State of New York, or any of the
provisions herein, conflict with the applicable provisions of the Act, the
latter shall control.

         15. Separate Series. Pursuant to the provisions of the Articles of

                             SUBADVISORY AGREEMENT


                  This SUBADVISORY AGREEMENT is dated as of September 17, 1996,
as amended August 20, 1997, by and between SUNAMERICA ASSET MANAGEMENT CORP., a
Delaware corporation (the "Adviser"), and JANUS CAPITAL CORPORATION, a Colorado
corporation (the "Subadviser").



                                  WITNESSETH:

         WHEREAS, the Adviser and Style Select Series, Inc., a Maryland
corporation (the "Corporation"), have entered into an Investment Advisory and
Management Agreement dated as of September 17, 1996, as amended August 20, 1997
(the "Advisory Agreement"), pursuant to which the Adviser has agreed to provide
investment management, advisory and administrative services to the Corporation;
and

         WHEREAS, the Corporation is registered under the Investment Company
Act of 1940, as amended (the "Act"), as an open-end management investment
company and may issue shares of common stock, par value $.0001 per share, in
separately designated series representing separate funds with their own
investment objectives, policies and purposes; and

         WHEREAS, the Subadviser is engaged in the business of rendering
investment advisory services and is registered as an investment adviser under
the Investment Advisers Act of 1940, as amended (the "Advisers Act"); and

         WHEREAS, the Adviser desires to retain the Subadviser to furnish
investment advisory services to the investment series of the Corporation listed
on Schedule A attached hereto (the "Portfolio"), and the Subadviser is willing
to furnish such services;

         NOW, THEREFORE, it is hereby agreed between the parties hereto as
follows:

         1. Duties of the Subadviser. (a) The Adviser hereby engages the
services of the Subadviser in furtherance of its Advisory Agreement with the
Corporation. Pursuant to this Subadvisory Agreement and subject to the
oversight and review of the Adviser, the Subadviser will manage the investment
and reinvestment of a portion of the assets of each Portfolio listed on
Schedule A attached hereto. The Subadviser will determine in its discretion and
subject to the oversight and review of the Adviser, the securities to be
purchased or sold, and shall furnish the Adviser with such monthly, quarterly,
and annual reports concerning transactions and performance of each Portfolio in
the form as reasonably requested by the Adviser. The Subadviser shall also
provide the Adviser with such other information and reports as may reasonably
be requested by the Adviser from time to time, other than proprietary
information, and provided the Subadviser shall not be responsible for portfolio
accounting, nor shall it be required to generate information derived from
portfolio accounting data. The Subadviser shall discharge the foregoing
responsibilities subject to the control of the officers and the Directors of
the Corporation and in compliance with such policies as the Directors of the
Corporation may from time to time establish, and in compliance with (a) the
objectives, policies and limitations for the Portfolio set forth in the
Corporation's current prospectus and statement of additional information, and
(b) applicable laws and regulations.

                                      -1-

<PAGE>

                  The Subadviser agrees to manage the portion of the assets
allocated to it of each of the Portfolios set forth in Schedule A in compliance
with all applicable federal and state laws governing its operations and
investments. Without limiting the foregoing, the Subadviser agrees to manage
each Portfolio (1) so that it qualifies to be treated as a "regulated
investment company" under subchapter M, chapter 1 of the Internal Revenue Code
of 1986, as amended (the "Code"), and (2) in compliance with (a) the provisions
of the Act and rules adopted thereunder; (b) applicable federal and state
securities, commodities and banking laws; and (c) the distribution requirements
necessary to avoid payment of any excise tax pursuant to Section 4982 of the
Code. For purposes of compliance with this paragraph, the Subadviser shall be
entitled to treat the portion of the assets of each Portfolio that it manages
as though such portion constituted the entire Portfolio, and the Subadviser
shall not be responsible in any way for the compliance of other portions of the
Portfolio or for compliance of the Portfolio as a whole with this paragraph.

                  (b) The Subadviser shall be responsible for the preparation
and filing of Schedule 13G and Form 13F on behalf of the Portfolio. The
Subadviser shall not be responsible for the preparation or filing of any
reports required of the Portfolio by any governmental or regulatory agency,
except as expressly agreed to in writing. The Subadviser shall vote proxies
received in connection with securities held by the Portfolio.

                  (c) The Subadviser accepts such employment and agrees, at its
own expense, to render the services set forth herein and to provide the office
space, furnishings, equipment and personnel required by it to perform such
services on the terms and for the compensation provided in this Agreement.

                  (d) The Adviser shall timely furnish the Subadviser with such
information as may be reasonably necessary for or requested by the Subadviser
to perform its responsibilities under this Agreement. The Subadviser shall
establish and maintain brokerage accounts or other accounts necessary for the
purchase or sale of various forms of securities and the Adviser shall take such
actions as the Subadviser deems advisable or necessary to enable the Subadviser
to establish such account on behalf of the Corporation.

                  (e) The Subadviser agrees to maintain a reasonable level of
errors and omissions or professional liability insurance coverage.

         2. Portfolio Transactions. The Subadviser is responsible for decisions
to buy or sell securities and other investments for a portion of the assets of
each Portfolio, broker-dealers and futures commission merchants' selection, and
negotiation of brokerage commission and futures commission merchants' rates. As
a general matter, in executing portfolio transactions, the Subadviser may
employ or deal with such broker-dealers or futures commission merchants as may,
in the Subadviser's best judgment, provide prompt and reliable execution of the
transactions at favorable prices and reasonable commission rates. In selecting
such broker-dealers or futures commission merchants, the Subadviser shall
consider all relevant factors including price (including the applicable
brokerage commission, dealer spread or futures commission merchant rate), the
size of the order, the nature of the market for the security or other
investment, the timing of the transaction, the reputation, experience and
financial stability of the broker-dealer or futures commission merchant
involved, the quality of the service, the difficulty of execution, the
execution capabilities and operational facilities of the firm involved, and, in
the case of securities, the firm's risk in positioning a block of securities.
Subject to such policies as the Directors may determine and consistent with
Section 28(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "1934
Act"), the Subadviser shall not be deemed to have acted unlawfully or to have
breached any duty

                                      -2-

<PAGE>

created by this Agreement or otherwise solely by reason of the Subadviser's
having caused a Portfolio to pay a member of an exchange, broker or dealer an
amount of commission for effecting a securities transaction in excess of the
amount of commission another member of an exchange, broker or dealer would have
charged for effecting that transaction, if the Subadviser determines in good
faith that such amount of commission was reasonable in relation to the value of
the brokerage and research services provided by such member of an exchange,
broker or dealer viewed in terms of either that particular transaction or the
Subadviser's overall responsibilities with respect to such Portfolio and to
other clients as to which the Subadviser exercises investment discretion. In
accordance with Section 11(a) of the 1934 Act and Rule 11a2-2(T) thereunder,
and subject to any other applicable laws and regulations including Section
17(e) of the Act and Rule 17e-1 thereunder, the Subadviser may engage its
affiliates, the Adviser and its affiliates or any other subadviser to the
Corporation and its respective affiliates, as broker-dealers or futures
commission merchants to effect Portfolio transactions in securities and other
investments for a Portfolio. The Subadviser will promptly communicate to the
Adviser and to the officers and the Directors of the Corporation such
information relating to portfolio transactions as they may reasonably request.

         3. (a) Compensation of the Subadviser. The Subadviser shall not be
entitled to receive any payment from the Corporation and shall look solely and
exclusively to the Adviser for payment of all fees for the services rendered,
facilities furnished and expenses paid by it hereunder. As full compensation
for the Subadviser under this Agreement, the Adviser agrees to pay to the
Subadviser a fee at the annual rates set forth in Schedule A hereto with
respect to the portion of the assets managed by the Subadviser for each
Portfolio listed thereon. Such fee shall be accrued daily and paid monthly as
soon as practicable after the end of each month (i.e., the applicable annual
fee rate divided by 365 applied to each prior days' net assets in order to
calculate the daily accrual). If the Subadviser shall provide its services
under this Agreement for less than the whole of any month, the foregoing
compensation shall be prorated.

                  (b) Expenses. The Adviser, the Corporation and the Portfolio
shall assume and pay their respective organizational, operational, and business
expenses not specifically assumed or agreed to be paid by Subadviser pursuant
to this Agreement. The Subadviser shall pay its own organizational, operational
and business expenses but shall not be obligated to pay any expenses of the
Adviser, the Corporation, or the Portfolio, including without limitation, (a)
interest and taxes; (b) brokerage commissions and other costs in connection
with the purchase or sale of securities or other investment instruments for the
Portfolio; and (c) custodian fees and expenses.

         4. Other Services. At the request of the Corporation or the Adviser,
the Subadviser in its discretion may make available to the Corporation, office
facilities, equipment, personnel and other services. Such office facilities,
equipment, personnel and services shall be provided for or rendered by the
Subadviser and billed to the Corporation or the Adviser at the Subadviser's
cost.

         5. Reports. The Corporation, the Adviser and the Subadviser agree to
furnish to each other, if applicable, current prospectuses, statements of
additional information, proxy statements, reports of shareholders, certified
copies of their financial statements, and such other information with regard to
their affairs and that of the Corporation as each may reasonably request.

         6. Status of the Subadviser. The services of the Subadviser to the
Adviser and the Corporation are not to be deemed exclusive, and the Subadviser
shall be free to render similar services to others so long as its services to
the Corporation are not impaired thereby. The Subadviser shall be deemed to be
an independent contractor and shall, unless otherwise

                                      -3-

<PAGE>

expressly provided or authorized, have no authority to act for or represent the
Corporation in any way or otherwise be deemed an agent of the Corporation. The
Subadviser may provide advice to or take action with respect to other clients,
which advice or action, including the timing and nature of such action, may
differ from or be identical to advice given or action taken with respect to the
Portfolio. In the event of such activities, the transactions and associated
costs will be allocated among such clients (including the Portfolio) in a
manner that the Subadviser believes to be equitable to the accounts involved
and consistent with such accounts' objectives, policies and limitations.

         7. Certain Records. While the Subadviser is not being engaged to serve
as the Corporation's official record keeper, the Subadviser nevertheless hereby
undertakes and agrees to maintain, in the form and for the period required by
Section 204 of the Advisers Act and Rule 204-2 thereunder, all records relating
to the investments of the Portfolio that are required to be maintained by the
Subadviser pursuant to the requirements of Rule 204-2 under the Advisers Act.
 The Subadviser will also, in connection with the purchase and sale of
securities for each Portfolio, arrange for the transmission to the custodian
for the Corporation on a daily basis, such confirmation, trade tickets, and
other documents and information, that identify securities to be purchased or
sold on behalf of the Portfolio, as may be reasonably necessary to enable the
custodian to perform its administrative and recordkeeping responsibilities with
respect to the Portfolio.

                  The Subadviser agrees that all accounts, books and other
records maintained and preserved by it with respect to the Portfolio as
required hereby shall be subject at any time, and from time to time, to such
reasonable periodic, special and other examinations by the Securities and
Exchange Commission, the Corporation's auditors, the Corporation or any
representative of the Corporation, the Adviser, or any governmental agency or
other instrumentality having regulatory authority over the Corporation.

         8. Confidentiality and Proprietary Rights. The Adviser will not,
directly or indirectly, and will not permit its affiliates, employees,
officers, directors, agents, contractors, or the Corporation to, in any form or
by any means, use, disclose, or furnish, to any person or entity, records or
information concerning the business of the Subadviser, except as necessary for
the performance of its duties under this Agreement or the Advisory Agreement,
or as required by law upon prior written notice to the Subadviser. The
Subadviser is the sole owner of the name and mark "Janus." The Adviser shall
not, and shall not permit the Corporation to, without prior written consent of
the Subadviser, use the name or mark "Janus" or make representations regarding
the Subadviser or its affiliates. Upon termination of this Agreement for any
reasons, the Adviser shall immediately cease, and the Adviser shall cause the
Corporation to immediately cease, all use of the Janus name or any Janus mark.

         9. Liability of the Subadviser. (a) In the absence of willful
misfeasance, bad faith, gross negligence or reckless disregard of obligations
or duties ("disabling conduct") hereunder on the part of the Subadviser (and
its officers, directors, agents, employees, controlling persons, shareholders
and any other person or entity affiliated with the Subadviser) neither the
Subadviser nor its officers, directors, agents, employees, controlling persons,
shareholders, and any other person or entity affiliated with the Subadviser
shall be subject to liability for any act or omission in the course of, or
connected with, rendering services hereunder, including without limitation, any
error of judgment or mistake of law or for any loss suffered by any of them in
connection with the matters to which this Agreement relates, except to the
extent specified in Section 36(b) of the Act concerning loss resulting from a
breach of fiduciary duty with respect to the receipt of

                                                        -4-

<PAGE>

compensation for services. Except for such disabling conduct, the Adviser shall
indemnify the Subadviser (and its officers, directors, partners, agents,
employees, controlling persons, shareholders and any other person or entity
affiliated with the Subadviser) (collectively, the "Indemnified Parties") from
any liability arising from (1) the Subadviser's conduct under this Agreement,
or (2) any untrue statement of a material fact in the Corporation's
registration statement or omission to state a material fact required to be
stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, if
such statement or omission was made in reliance on information furnished by the
Adviser.

                  (b) The Subadviser agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the
Adviser and its affiliates and each of its directors and officers and each
person, if any, who controls the Adviser within the meaning of Section 15 of
the 1933 Act against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities or
litigation (including legal and other expenses), to which the Adviser or its
affiliates or such directors, officers or controlling person may become subject
under the 1933 Act, under other statutes, at common law or otherwise, which may
be based upon (i) any wrongful act or material breach of this Agreement by the
Subadviser resulting from Subadviser's disabling conduct , or (ii) any untrue
statement of a material fact in the Corporation's registration statement or
omission to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to
make the statements therein not misleading, if such statement or omission was
made in reliance on information furnished by the Subadviser; provided, however,
that in no case is the Subadviser's indemnity in favor of any person deemed to
protect such other persons against any liability to which such person would
otherwise be subject by reasons of willful misfeasance, bad faith, or gross
negligence in the performance of his, her or its duties or by reason of his,
her or its reckless disregard of obligation and duties under this Agreement.

                  (c) The Subadviser shall not be liable for (i) any acts of
the Adviser or any other subadviser to the Portfolio with respect to the
portion of the assets of a Portfolio not managed by the Subadviser and (ii)
acts of the Subadviser which result from acts of the Adviser, including, but
not limited to, a failure of the Adviser to provide accurate and current
information with respect to any records maintained by the Adviser or any other
subadviser to a Portfolio, which records are not also maintained by the
Subadviser. The Adviser agrees that the Subadviser shall manage the portion of
the assets of a Portfolio allocated to it as if it was a separate operating
portfolio and shall comply with subsections (a) and (b) of Section I of this
Subadvisory Agreement (including, but not limited to, the investment
objectives, policies and restrictions applicable to a Portfolio and
qualifications of a Portfolio as a regulated investment company under the Code)
with respect to the portion of assets of a Portfolio allocated to the
Subadviser. The Adviser shall indemnify the Indemnified Parties from any
liability arising from the conduct of the Adviser and any other subadviser with
respect to the portion of a Portfolio's assets not allocated to the Subadviser.

         10. Permissible Interests. Directors and agents of the Corporation are
or may be interested in the Subadviser (or any successor thereof) as directors,
partners, officers or shareholders, or otherwise; directors, partners,
officers, agents and shareholders of the Subadviser are or may be interested in
the Corporation as Directors, or otherwise; and the Subadviser (or any
successor) is or may be interested in the Corporation in some manner.

         11. Term of the Agreement. This Agreement shall continue in full force
and effect with respect to each Portfolio until two years from the date hereof,
and from year to year thereafter so long as such continuance is specifically
approved at least annually (i) by the vote of a majority of those Directors of
the Corporation who are not parties to this Agreement or interested persons of
any such party, cast in person at a meeting called for the purpose of voting on
such approval, and

                                      -5-

<PAGE>

(ii) by the Directors of the Corporation or by vote of a majority of the
outstanding voting securities of the Portfolio voting separately from any other
Portfolio of the Corporation.

                  With respect to each Portfolio, this Agreement may be
terminated at any time, without payment of a penalty by the Portfolio or the
Corporation, by vote of a majority of the Directors, or by vote of a majority
of the outstanding voting securities (as defined in the Act) of the Portfolio,
voting separately from any other series of the Corporation, or by the Adviser,
on not less than 30 nor more than 60 days' written notice to the Subadviser.
With respect to each Portfolio, this Agreement may be terminated by the
Subadviser at any time, without the payment of any penalty, on 90 days' written
notice to the Adviser and the Corporation. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the
Subadviser may terminate the Agreement upon 60 days' written notice in the
event of a breach of the Agreement by the Adviser. The termination of this
Agreement with respect to any Portfolio or the addition of any Portfolio to
Schedule A hereto (in the manner required by the Act) shall not affect the
continued effectiveness of this Agreement with respect to each other Portfolio
subject hereto. This Agreement shall automatically terminate in the event of
its assignment (as defined by the Act).

                  This Agreement will also terminate in the event that the
Advisory Agreement by and between the Corporation and the Adviser is
terminated. The obligations contained in Section 9 shall survive termination of
this Agreement.

         12. Severability. If any provision of this Agreement shall be held or
made invalid by a court decision, statute, rule or otherwise, the remainder of
this Agreement shall not be affected thereby.

         13. Amendments. This Agreement may be amended by mutual consent in
writing, but the consent of the Corporation must be obtained in conformity with
the requirements of the Act.

         14. Governing Law. This Agreement shall be construed in accordance
with the laws of the State of New York and the applicable provisions of the
Act. To the extent the applicable laws of the State of New York, or any of the
provisions herein, conflict with the applicable provisions of the Act, the
latter shall control.

         15. Separate Series. Pursuant to the provisions of the Articles of
Incorporation, each Portfolio is a separate Portfolio of the Corporation, and
all debts, liabilities, obligations and expenses of a particular Portfolio
shall be enforceable only against the assets of that Portfolio and not against
the assets of any other Portfolio or of the Corporation as a whole.

         16. Notices. All notices shall be in writing and deemed properly given
when delivered or mailed by United States certified or registered mail, return
receipt requested, postage prepaid, addressed as follows:

to furnish such services;

         NOW, THEREFORE, it is hereby agreed between the parties hereto as
follows:

         1. Duties of the Subadviser. (a) The Adviser hereby engages the
services of the Subadviser in furtherance of its Advisory Agreement with the
Corporation. Pursuant to this Subadvisory Agreement and subject to the
oversight and review of the Adviser, the Subadviser will manage the investment
and reinvestment of a portion of the assets of each Portfolio listed on
Schedule A attached hereto. The Subadviser will determine in its discretion and
subject to the oversight and review of the Adviser, the securities to be
purchased or sold, will provide the Adviser with records concerning its
activities which the Adviser of the Corporation is required to maintain, and
will render regular reports to the Adviser and to officers and Directors of the
Corporation concerning its discharge of the foregoing responsibilities. The
Subadviser shall discharge the foregoing responsibilities subject to the
control of the officers and the Directors of the Corporation and in compliance
with such policies as the Directors of the Corporation may from time to time
establish, and in compliance with (a) the objectives, policies and limitations
for the Portfolio set forth in the Corporation's current prospectus and
statement of additional information, and (b) applicable laws and regulations.

                                      

<PAGE>

                  The Subadviser represents and warrants to the Adviser that
the portion of the assets which it manages of the Portfolio set forth in
Schedule A will at all times be operated and managed in compliance with all
applicable federal and state laws governing its operations and investments.
Without limiting the foregoing, the Subadviser represents and warrants (1)
qualification, election and maintenance of such election by each Portfolio to
be treated as a "regulated investment company" under Subchapter M, Chapter 1 of
the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"), and (2) compliance
with (a) the provisions of the Act and rules adopted thereunder; (b) applicable
federal and state securities, commodities and banking laws; and (c) the
distribution requirements necessary to avoid payment of any excise tax pursuant
to Section 4982 of the Code. The Subadviser further represents and warrants
that to the extent that any statements or omissions made in any Registration
Statement for shares of the Corporation, or any amendment or supplement
thereto, are made in reliance upon and in conformity with information furnished
by the Subadviser expressly for use therein, such Registration Statement and
any amendments or supplements thereto will, when they become effective, conform
in all material respects to the requirements of the Securities Act of 1933 and
the rules and regulations of the Commission thereunder (the "1933 Act") and the
Act and will not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to
state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the
statements therein not misleading.

                  The Subadviser accepts such employment and agrees, at its own
expense, to render the services set forth herein and to provide the office
space, furnishings, equipment and personnel required by it to perform such
services on the terms and for the compensation provided in this Agreement.

                  (b) The Subadviser agrees that it will maintain adequate
professional liability insurance coverage.

         2. Portfolio Transactions. The Subadviser is responsible for decisions
to buy or sell securities and other investments for a portion of the assets of
each Portfolio, broker-dealers and futures commission merchants' selection, and
negotiation of brokerage commission and futures commission merchants' rates. As
a general matter, in executing Portfolio transactions, the Subadviser may
employ or deal with such broker-dealers or futures commission merchants as may,
in the Subadviser's best judgment, provide prompt and reliable execution of the
transactions at favorable prices and reasonable commission rates. In selecting
such broker-dealers or futures commission merchants, the Subadviser shall
consider all relevant factors including price (including the applicable
brokerage commission, dealer spread or futures commission merchant rate), the
size of the order, the nature of the market for the security or other
investment, the timing of the transaction, the reputation, experience and
financial stability of the broker-dealer or futures commission merchant
involved, the quality of the service, the difficulty of execution, the
execution capabilities and operational facilities of the firm involved, and, in
the case of securities, the firm's risk in positioning a block of securities.
Subject to such policies as the Directors may determine and, consistent with
Section 28(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "1934
Act"), the Subadviser shall not be deemed to have acted unlawfully or to have
breached any duty created by this Agreement or otherwise solely by reason of
the Subadviser's having caused a Portfolio to pay a member of an exchange,
broker or dealer an amount of commission for effecting a securities transaction
in excess of the amount of commission another member of an exchange, broker or
dealer would have charged for effecting that transaction, if the Subadviser
determines in good faith that such amount of commission was reasonable in
relation to the value of the brokerage and research services provided by such
member of an exchange, broker or dealer viewed in terms of either that
particular transaction or the

                                      -2-

<PAGE>

Subadviser's overall responsibilities with respect to such Portfolio and to
other clients as to which the Subadviser exercises investment discretion. In
accordance with Section 11(a) of the 1934 Act and Rule 11a2-2(T) thereunder,
and subject to any other applicable laws and regulations including Section
17(e) of the Act and Rule 17e-1 thereunder, the Subadviser may engage its
affiliates, the Adviser and its affiliates or any other subadviser to the
Corporation and its respective affiliates, as broker-dealers or futures
commission merchants to effect Portfolio transactions in securities and other
investments for a Portfolio. The Subadviser will promptly communicate to the
Adviser and to the officers and the Directors of the Corporation such
information relating to Portfolio transactions as they may reasonably request.
To the extent consistent with applicable law, the Subadviser may aggregate
purchase or sell orders for the Portfolio with contemporaneous purchase or sell
orders of other clients of the Subadviser or its affiliated persons. In such
event, allocation of the securities so purchased or sold, as well as the
expenses incurred in the transaction, will be made by the Subadviser in the
manner the Subadviser determines to be equitable and consistent with its and
its affiliates' fiduciary obligations to the Portfolio and to such other
clients. The Adviser hereby acknowledges that such aggregation of orders may
not result in more favorable pricing or lower brokerage commissions in all
instances.

         3. Compensation of the Subadviser. The Subadviser shall not be
entitled to receive any payment from the Corporation and shall look solely and
exclusively to the Adviser for payment of all fees for the services rendered,
facilities furnished and expenses paid by it hereunder. As full compensation
for the Subadviser under this Agreement, the Adviser agrees to pay to the
Subadviser a fee at the annual rates set forth in Schedule A hereto with
respect to the portion of the assets managed by the Subadviser for each
Portfolio listed thereon. Such fee shall be accrued daily and paid monthly as
soon as practicable after the end of each month (i.e., the applicable annual
fee rate divided by 365 applied to each prior days' net assets in order to
calculate the daily accrual). If the Subadviser shall provide its services
under this Agreement for less than the whole of any month, the foregoing
compensation shall be prorated.

         4. Other Services. At the request of the Corporation or the Adviser,
the Subadviser in its discretion may make available to the Corporation, office
facilities, equipment, personnel and other services. Such office facilities,
equipment, personnel and services shall be provided for or rendered by the
Subadviser and billed to the Corporation or the Adviser at the Subadviser's
cost.

         5. Reports. The Corporation, the Adviser and the Subadviser agree to
furnish to each other, if applicable, current prospectuses, statements of
additional information, proxy statements, reports of shareholders, certified
copies of their financial statements and such other information with regard to
their affairs and that of the Corporation as each may reasonably request.

         6. Status of the Subadviser. The services of the Subadviser to the
Adviser and the Corporation are not be deemed exclusive, and the Subadviser
shall be free to render similar services to others so long as its services to
the Corporation are not impaired thereby. The Subadviser shall be deemed to be
an independent contractor and shall, unless otherwise expressly provided or
authorized, have no authority to act for or represent the Corporation in any
way or otherwise be deemed an agent of the Corporation.

         7. Certain Records. The Subadviser hereby undertakes and agrees to
maintain, in the form and for the period required by Rule 31a-2 under the Act,
all records relating to the investments of the Portfolio that are required to
be maintained by the Corporation pursuant to the requirements

                                      -3-

<PAGE>

of Rule 31a-1 of the Act. Any records required to be maintained and preserved
pursuant to the provisions of Rule 31a-1 and Rule 31a-2 promulgated under the
Act which are prepared or maintained by the Subadviser on behalf of the
Corporation are the property of the Corporation and will be surrendered
promptly to the Corporation or the Adviser on request.

                  The Subadviser agrees that all accounts, books and other
records maintained and preserved by it as required hereby shall be subject at
any time, and from time to time, to such reasonable periodic, special and other
examinations by the Securities and Exchange Commission, the Corporation's
auditors, the Corporation or any representative of the Corporation, the
Adviser, or any governmental agency or other instrumentality having regulatory
authority over the Corporation.

         8. Reference to the Subadviser. Neither the Corporation nor the
Adviser or any affiliate or agent thereof shall make reference to or use the
name of the Subadviser or any of its affiliates in any advertising or
promotional materials without the prior approval of the Subadviser, which
approval shall not be unreasonably withheld.

         9. Liability of the Subadviser. (a) In the absence of willful
misfeasance, bad faith, gross negligence or reckless disregard of obligations
or duties ("disabling conduct") hereunder on the part of the Subadviser (and
its officers, directors, agents, employees, controlling persons, shareholders
and any other person or entity affiliated with the Subadviser), the Subadviser
shall not be subject to liability to the Corporation or to any shareholder of
the Corporation for any act or omission in the course of, or connected with,
rendering services hereunder, including without limitation, any error of
judgment or mistake of law or for any loss suffered by any of them in
connection with the matters to which this Agreement relates, except to the
extent specified in Section 36(b) of the Act concerning loss resulting from a
breach of fiduciary duty with respect to the receipt of compensation for
services. Except for such disabling conduct, the Adviser shall indemnify the
Subadviser (and its officers, directors, partners, agents, employees,
controlling persons, shareholders and any other person or entity affiliated
with the Subadviser) (collectively, the "Indemnified Parties") from any
liability arising from the Subadviser's conduct under this Agreement.

                  (b) The Subadviser agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the
Adviser and its affiliates and each of its directors and officers and each
person, if any, who controls the Adviser within the meaning of Section 15 of
the 1933 Act against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities or
litigation (including legal and other expenses), to which the Adviser or its
affiliates or such directors, officers or controlling person may become subject
under the 1933 Act, under other statutes, at common law or otherwise, which may
be based upon (i) any wrongful act or breach of this Agreement by the
Subadviser, or (ii) any failure by the Subadviser to comply with the
representations and warranties set forth in Section 1 of this Agreement;
provided, however, that in no case is the Subadviser's indemnity in favor of
any person deemed to protect such other persons against any liability to which
such person would otherwise be subject by reasons of willful misfeasance, bad
faith, or gross negligence in the performance of his, her or its duties or by
reason of his, her or its reckless disregard of obligation and duties under
this Agreement.

                  (c) The Subadviser shall not be liable to the Adviser for (i)
any acts of the Adviser or any other subadviser to the Portfolio with respect
to the portion of the assets of a Portfolio not managed by Subadviser and (ii)
acts of the Subadviser which result from acts of the Adviser, including, but
not limited to, a failure of the Adviser to provide accurate and current
information with respect to any records maintained by Adviser or any other
subadviser to a Portfolio, which records

                                      -4-

<PAGE>

are not also maintained by or otherwise available to the Subadviser upon
reasonable request. The Adviser agrees that the Subadviser shall manage the
portion of the assets of a Portfolio allocated to it as if it was a separate
operating Portfolio and shall comply with subsections (a) and (b) of Section 1
of this Subadvisory Agreement (including, but not limited to, the investment
objectives, policies and restrictions applicable to a Portfolio and
qualifications of a Portfolio as a regulated investment company under the Code)
with respect to the portion of assets of a Portfolio allocated to the
Subadviser. The Adviser shall indemnify the Indemnified Parties from any
liability arising from the conduct of the Adviser and any other subadviser with
respect to the portion of a Portfolio's assets not allocated to the Subadviser.

         10. Permissible Interests. Directors and agents of the Corporation are
or may be interested in the Subadviser (or any successor thereof) as directors,
partners, officers or shareholders, or otherwise; directors, partners,
officers, agents and shareholders of the Subadviser are or may be interested in
the Corporation as Directors, or otherwise; and the Subadviser (or any
successor) is or may be interested in the Corporation in some manner.

         11. Term of the Agreement. This Agreement shall continue in full force
and effect with respect to each Portfolio until two years from the date hereof,
and from year to year thereafter so long as such continuance is specifically
approved at least annually (i) by the vote of a majority of those Directors of
the Corporation who are not parties to this Agreement or interested persons of
any such party, cast in person at a meeting called for the purpose of voting on
such approval, and (ii) by the Directors of the Corporation or by vote of a
majority of the outstanding voting securities of the Portfolio voting
separately from any other series of the Corporation.

                  With respect to each Portfolio, this Agreement may be
terminated at any time, without payment of a penalty by the Portfolio or the
Corporation, by vote of a majority of the Directors, or by vote of a majority
of the outstanding voting securities (as defined in the Act) of the Portfolio,
voting separately from any other series of the Corporation, or by the Adviser,
on not less than 30 nor more than 60 days' written notice to the Subadviser.
With respect to each Portfolio, this Agreement may be terminated by the
Subadviser at any time, without the payment of any penalty, on 90 days' written
notice to the Adviser and the Corporation; provided, however, that this
Agreement may not be terminated by the Subadviser unless another subadvisory
agreement has been approved by the Corporation in accordance with the Act, or
after six months' written notice, whichever is earlier. The termination of this
Agreement with respect to any Portfolio or the addition of any Portfolio to
Schedule A hereto (in the manner required by the Act) shall not affect the
continued effectiveness of this Agreement with respect to each other Portfolio
subject hereto. This Agreement shall automatically terminate in the event of
its assignment (as defined by the Act).

                  This Agreement will also terminate in the event that the
Advisory Agreement by and between the Corporation and the Adviser is
terminated.

         12. Severability. If any provision of this Agreement shall be held or
made invalid by a court decision, statute, rule or otherwise, the remainder of
this Agreement shall not be affected thereby.

         13. Amendments. This Agreement may be amended by mutual consent in
writing, but the consent of the Corporation must be obtained in conformity with
the requirements of the Act.

                                      -5-

         14. Governing Law. This Agreement shall be construed in accordance
with the laws of the State of New York and the applicable provisions of the
Act. To the extent the applicable laws of the State of New York, or any of the
provisions herein, conflict with the applicable provisions of the Act, the
latter shall control.

         15. Separate Series. Pursuant to the provisions of the Articles of
Incorporation and the General Laws of the State of Maryland, each Portfolio is
a separate series of the Corporation, and all debts, liabilities, obligations
and expenses of a particular Portfolio shall be enforceable only against the
assets of that Portfolio and not against the assets of any other Portfolio or
of the Corporation as a whole.

         16. Notices. All notices shall be in writing and deemed properly given
when delivered or mailed by United States certified or registered mail, return
receipt requested, postage prepaid, addressed as follows:

                             SUBADVISORY AGREEMENT


                  This SUBADVISORY AGREEMENT is dated as of August 20, 1997 by
and between SUNAMERICA ASSET MANAGEMENT CORP., a Delaware corporation (the
"Adviser"), and LAZARD ASSET MANAGEMENT A DIVISION OF LAZARD FRERES & CO. LLC

                                  WITNESSETH:

         WHEREAS, the Adviser and Style Select Series, Inc., a Maryland
corporation (the "Corporation"), have entered into an Investment Advisory and
Management Agreement dated as of September 17, 1996, as amended August 20, 1997
(the "Advisory Agreement"), pursuant to which the Adviser has agreed to provide
investment management, advisory and administrative services to the Corporation;
and

         WHEREAS, the Corporation is registered under the Investment Company
Act of 1940, as amended (the "Act"), as an open-end management investment
company and may issue shares of common stock, par value $.0001 per share, in
separately designated series representing separate funds with their own
investment objectives, policies and purposes; and

         WHEREAS, the Subadviser is engaged in the business of rendering
investment advisory services and is registered as an investment adviser under
the Investment Advisers Act of 1940, as amended; and

         WHEREAS, the Adviser desires to retain the Subadviser to furnish
investment advisory services to the investment series of the Corporation listed
on Schedule A attached hereto (the "Portfolio"), and the Subadviser is willing
to furnish such services;

         NOW, THEREFORE, it is hereby agreed between the parties hereto as
follows:

         1. Duties of the Subadviser. (a) The Adviser hereby engages the
services of the Subadviser in furtherance of its Advisory Agreement with the
Corporation. Pursuant to this Subadvisory Agreement and subject to the
oversight and review of the Adviser, the Subadviser will manage the investment
and reinvestment of a portion of the assets of each Portfolio listed on
Schedule A attached hereto. The Subadviser will determine in its discretion and
subject to the oversight and review of the Adviser, the securities to be
purchased or sold, will provide the Adviser with records concerning its
activities which the Adviser of the Corporation is required to maintain, and
will render regular reports to the Adviser and to officers and Directors of the
Corporation concerning its discharge of the foregoing responsibilities. The
Subadviser shall discharge the foregoing responsibilities subject to the
control of the officers and the Directors of the Corporation and in compliance
with such policies as the Directors of the Corporation may from time to time
establish, and in compliance with (a) the objectives, policies and limitations
for the Portfolio set forth in the Corporation's current prospectus and
statement of additional information, and (b) applicable laws and regulations.

                                      -1-

<PAGE>

                  The Subadviser represents and warrants to the Adviser that
the portion of the assets which it manages of the Portfolio set forth in
Schedule A will at all times be operated and managed in compliance with all
applicable federal and state laws governing its operations and investments.
Without limiting the foregoing, the Subadviser represents and warrants (1)
qualification, election and maintenance of such election by each Portfolio to
be treated as a "regulated investment company" under Subchapter M, chapter 1 of
the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"), and (2) compliance
with (a) the provisions of the Act and rules adopted thereunder; (b) applicable
federal and state securities, commodities and banking laws; and (c) the
distribution requirements necessary to avoid payment of any excise tax pursuant
to Section 4982 of the Code. The Subadviser further represents and warrants
that to the extent that any statements or omissions made in any Registration
Statement for shares of the Corporation, or any amendment or supplement
thereto, are made in reliance upon and in conformity with information furnished
by the Subadviser expressly for use therein, such Registration Statement and
any amendments or supplements thereto will, when they become effective, conform
in all material respects to the requirements of the Securities Act of 1933 and
the rules and regulations of the Commission thereunder (the "1933 Act") and the
Act and will not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to
state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the
statements therein not misleading.

                  The Subadviser accepts such employment and agrees, at its own
expense, to render the services set forth herein and to provide the office
space, furnishings, equipment and personnel required by it to perform such
services on the terms and for the compensation provided in this Agreement.

                  (b) The Subadviser agrees to maintain a level of errors and
omissions or professional liability insurance coverage that is from time to
time satisfactory to the Adviser.

         2. Portfolio Transactions. The Subadviser is responsible for decisions
to buy or sell securities and other investments for a portion of the assets of
each Portfolio, broker-dealers and futures commission merchants' selection, and
negotiation of brokerage commission and futures commission merchants' rates. As
a general matter, in executing Portfolio transactions, the Subadviser may
employ or deal with such broker-dealers or futures commission merchants as may,
in the Subadviser's best judgment, provide prompt and reliable execution of the
transactions at favorable prices and reasonable commission rates. In selecting
such broker-dealers or futures commission merchants, the Subadviser shall
consider all relevant factors including price (including the applicable
brokerage commission, dealer spread or futures commission merchant rate), the
size of the order, the nature of the market for the security or other
investment, the timing of the transaction, the reputation, experience and
financial stability of the broker-dealer or futures commission merchant
involved, the quality of the service, the difficulty of execution, the
execution capabilities and operational facilities of the firm involved, and, in
the case of securities, the firm's risk in positioning a block of securities.
Subject to such policies as the Directors may determine and, consistent with
Section 28(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "1934
Act"), the Subadviser shall not be deemed to have acted unlawfully or to have
breached any duty created by this Agreement or otherwise solely by reason of
the Subadviser's having caused a Portfolio to pay a member of an exchange,
broker or dealer an amount of commission for effecting a securities transaction
in excess of the amount of commission another member of an exchange, broker or
dealer would have charged for effecting that transaction, if the Subadviser
determines in good faith that such amount of commission was reasonable in
relation to the value of the brokerage and research services provided by such
member of an exchange, broker or dealer viewed in terms of either that
particular transaction or the

                                      -2-

<PAGE>

Subadviser's overall responsibilities with respect to such Portfolio and to
other clients as to which the Subadviser exercises investment discretion. In
accordance with Section 11(a) of the 1934 Act and Rule 11a2-2(T) thereunder,
and subject to any other applicable laws and regulations including Section
17(e) of the Act and Rule 17e-1 thereunder, the Subadviser may engage its
affiliates, the Adviser and its affiliates or any other subadviser to the
Corporation and its respective affiliates, as broker-dealers or futures
commission merchants to effect Portfolio transactions in securities and other
investments for a Portfolio. The Subadviser will promptly communicate to the
Adviser and to the officers and the Directors of the Corporation such
information relating to Portfolio transactions as they may reasonably request.
To the extent consistent with applicable law, the Subadviser may aggregate
purchase or sell orders for the Portfolio with contemporaneous purchase or sell
orders of other clients of the Subadviser or its affiliated persons. In such
event, allocation of the securities so purchased or sold, as well as the
expenses incurred in the transaction, will be made by the Subadviser in the
manner the Subadviser determines to be equitable and consistent with its and
its affiliates' fiduciary obligations to the Portfolio and to such other
clients. The Adviser hereby acknowledges that such aggregation of orders may
not result in more favorable pricing or lower brokerage commissions in all
instances.

         3. Compensation of the Subadviser. The Subadviser shall not be
entitled to receive any payment from the Corporation and shall look solely and
exclusively to the Adviser for payment of all fees for the services rendered,
facilities furnished and expenses paid by it hereunder. As full compensation
for the Subadviser under this Agreement, the Adviser agrees to pay to the
Subadviser a fee at the annual rates set forth in Schedule A hereto with
respect to the portion of the assets managed by the Subadviser for each
Portfolio listed thereon. Such fee shall be accrued daily and paid monthly as
soon as practicable after the end of each month (i.e., the applicable annual
fee rate divided by 365 applied to each prior days' net assets in order to
calculate the daily accrual). If the Subadviser shall provide its services
under this Agreement for less than the whole of any month, the foregoing
compensation shall be prorated.

         4. Other Services. At the request of the Corporation or the Adviser,
the Subadviser in its discretion may make available to the Corporation, office
facilities, equipment, personnel and other services. Such office facilities,
equipment, personnel and services shall be provided for or rendered by the
Subadviser and billed to the Corporation or the Adviser at the Subadviser's
cost.

         5. Reports. The Corporation, the Adviser and the Subadviser agree to
furnish to each other, if applicable, current prospectuses, statements of
additional information, proxy statements, reports of shareholders, certified
copies of their financial statements, and such other information with regard to
their affairs and that of the Corporation as each may reasonably request.

         6. Status of the Subadviser. The services of the Subadviser to the
Adviser and the Corporation are not be deemed exclusive, and the Subadviser
shall be free to render similar services to others so long as its services to
the Corporation are not impaired thereby. The Subadviser shall be deemed to be
an independent contractor and shall, unless otherwise expressly provided or
authorized, have no authority to act for or represent the Corporation in any
way or otherwise be deemed an agent of the Corporation.

         7. Certain Records. The Subadviser hereby undertakes and agrees to
maintain, in the form and for the period required by Rule 31a-2 under the Act,
all records relating to the investments of the Portfolio that are required to
be maintained by the Corporation pursuant to the requirements

                                      -3-

<PAGE>

of Rule 31a-1 of the Act. Any records required to be maintained and preserved
pursuant to the provisions of Rule 31a-1 and Rule 31a-2 promulgated under the
Act which are prepared or maintained by the Subadviser on behalf of the
Corporation are the property of the Corporation and will be surrendered
promptly to the Corporation or the Adviser on request.

                  The Subadviser agrees that all accounts, books and other
records maintained and preserved by it as required hereby shall be subject at
any time, and from time to time, to such reasonable periodic, special and other
examinations by the Securities and Exchange Commission, the Corporation's
auditors, the Corporation or any representative of the Corporation, the
Adviser, or any governmental agency or other instrumentality having regulatory
authority over the Corporation.

         8. Reference to the Subadviser. Neither the Corporation nor the
Adviser or any affiliate or agent thereof shall make reference to or use the
name of the Subadviser or any of its affiliates in any advertising or
promotional materials without the prior approval of the Subadviser, which
approval shall not be unreasonably withheld.

         9. Liability of the Subadviser. (a) In the absence of willful
misfeasance, bad faith, gross negligence or reckless disregard of obligations
or duties ("disabling conduct") hereunder on the part of the Subadviser (and
its officers, directors, agents, employees, controlling persons, shareholders
and any other person or entity affiliated with the Subadviser), the Subadviser
shall not be subject to liability to the Corporation or to any shareholder of
the Corporation for any act or omission in the course of, or connected with,
rendering services hereunder, including without limitation, any error of
judgment or mistake of law or for any loss suffered by any of them in
connection with the matters to which this Agreement relates, except to the
extent specified in Section 36(b) of the Act concerning loss resulting from a
breach of fiduciary duty with respect to the receipt of compensation for
services. Except for such disabling conduct, the Adviser shall indemnify the
Subadviser (and its officers, directors, partners, agents, employees,
controlling persons, shareholders and any other person or entity affiliated
with the Subadviser) (collectively, the "Indemnified Parties") from any
liability arising from the Subadviser's conduct under this Agreement.

                  (b) The Subadviser agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the
Adviser and its affiliates and each of its directors and officers and each
person, if any, who controls the Adviser within the meaning of Section 15 of
the 1933 Act against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities or
litigation (including legal and other expenses), to which the Adviser or its
affiliates or such directors, officers or controlling person may become subject
under the 1933 Act, under other statutes, at common law or otherwise, which may
be based upon (i) any wrongful act or breach of this Agreement by the
Subadviser, or (ii) any failure by the Subadviser to comply with the
representations and warranties set forth in Section 1 of this Agreement;
provided, however, that in no case is the Subadviser's indemnity in favor of
any person deemed to protect such other persons against any liability to which
such person would otherwise be subject by reasons of willful misfeasance, bad
faith, or gross negligence in the performance of his, her or its duties or by
reason of his, her or its reckless disregard of obligation and duties under
this Agreement.

                  (c) The Subadviser shall not be liable to the Adviser for (i)
any acts of the Adviser or any other subadviser to the Portfolio with respect
to the portion of the assets of a Portfolio not managed by the Subadviser and
(ii) acts of the Subadviser which result from acts of the Adviser, including,
but not limited to, a failure of the Adviser to provide accurate and current
information with respect to any records maintained by the Adviser or any other
subadviser to a Portfolio, which

                                      -4-

<PAGE>

records are not also maintained by or otherwise available to the Subadviser
upon reasonable request. The Adviser agrees that the Subadviser shall manage
the portion of the assets of a Portfolio allocated to it as if it was a
separate operating Portfolio and shall comply with subsections (a) and (b) of
Section 1 of this Subadvisory Agreement (including, but not limited to, the
investment objectives, policies and restrictions applicable to a Portfolio and
qualifications of a Portfolio as a regulated investment company under the Code)
with respect to the portion of assets of a Portfolio allocated to the
Subadviser. The Adviser shall indemnify the Indemnified Parties from any
liability arising from the conduct of the Adviser and any other subadviser with
respect to the portion of a Portfolio's assets not allocated to the Subadviser.
Nothing stated herein shall be deemed to waive any rights the Adviser or the
Corporation may have against the Subadviser under federal or state securities
laws.

         10. Permissible Interests. Directors and agents of the Corporation are
or may be interested in the Subadviser (or any successor thereof) as directors,
partners, officers or shareholders, or otherwise; directors, partners,
officers, agents and shareholders of the Subadviser are or may be interested in
the Corporation as Directors, or otherwise; and the Subadviser (or any
successor) is or may be interested in the Corporation in some manner.

         11. Term of the Agreement. This Agreement shall continue in full force
and effect with respect to each Portfolio until two years from the date hereof,
and from year to year thereafter so long as such continuance is specifically
approved at least annually (i) by the vote of a majority of those Directors of
the Corporation who are not parties to this Agreement or interested persons of
any such party, cast in person at a meeting called for the purpose of voting on
such approval, and (ii) by the Directors of the Corporation or by vote of a
majority of the outstanding voting securities of the Portfolio voting
separately from any other series of the Corporation.

                  With respect to each Portfolio, this Agreement may be
terminated at any time, without payment of a penalty by the Portfolio or the
Corporation, by vote of a majority of the Directors, or by vote of a majority
of the outstanding voting securities (as defined in the Act) of the Portfolio,
voting separately from any other series of the Corporation, or by the Adviser,
on not less than 30 nor more than 60 days' written notice to the Subadviser.
With respect to each Portfolio, this Agreement may be terminated by the
Subadviser at any time, without the payment of any penalty, on 90 days' written
notice to the Adviser and the Corporation; provided, however, that this
Agreement may not be terminated by the Subadviser unless another subadvisory
agreement has been approved by the Corporation in accordance with the Act, or
after six months' written notice, whichever is earlier. The termination of this
Agreement with respect to any Portfolio or the addition of any Portfolio to
Schedule A hereto (in the manner required by the Act) shall not affect the
continued effectiveness of this Agreement with respect to each other Portfolio
subject hereto. This Agreement shall automatically terminate in the event of
its assignment (as defined by the Act).

                  This Agreement will also terminate in the event that the
Advisory Agreement by and between the Corporation and the Adviser is
terminated.

         12. Severability. If any provision of this Agreement shall be held or
made invalid by a court decision, statute, rule or otherwise, the remainder of
this Agreement shall not be affected thereby.

         13. Amendments. This Agreement may be amended by mutual consent in
writing, but the consent of the Corporation must be obtained in conformity with
the requirements of the Act.

         14. Governing Law. This Agreement shall be construed in accordance
with the laws of the State of New York and the applicable provisions of the
Act. To the extent the applicable laws of the State of New York, or any of the
provisions herein, conflict with the applicable provisions of the Act, the
latter shall control.

         15. Separate Series. Pursuant to the provisions of the Articles of
Incorporation and the General Laws of the State of Maryland, each Portfolio is
a separate series of the Corporation, and all debts, liabilities, obligations
and expenses of a particular Portfolio shall be enforceable only against the
assets of that Portfolio and not against the assets of any other Portfolio or
of the Corporation as a whole.

                             SUBADVISORY AGREEMENT


                  This SUBADVISORY AGREEMENT is dated as of August 20, 1997 by
and between SUNAMERICA ASSET MANAGEMENT CORP., a Delaware corporation (the
"Adviser"), and MONTAG & CALDWELL, INC., a Georgia corporation (the
"Subadviser").

                                  WITNESSETH:

         WHEREAS, the Adviser and Style Select Series, Inc., a Maryland
corporation (the "Corporation"), have entered into an Investment Advisory and
Management Agreement dated as of September 17, 1996, as amended August 20, 1997
(the "Advisory Agreement"), pursuant to which the Adviser has agreed to provide
investment management, advisory and administrative services to the Corporation;
and

         WHEREAS, the Corporation is registered under the Investment Company
Act of 1940, as amended (the "Act"), as an open-end management investment
company and may issue shares of common stock, par value $.0001 per share, in
separately designated series representing separate funds with their own
investment objectives, policies and purposes; and

         WHEREAS, the Subadviser is engaged in the business of rendering
investment advisory services and is registered as an investment adviser under
the Investment Advisers Act of 1940, as amended; and

         WHEREAS, the Adviser desires to retain the Subadviser to furnish
investment advisory services to the investment series of the Corporation listed
on Schedule A attached hereto (the "Portfolio"), and the Subadviser is willing
to furnish such services;

         NOW, THEREFORE, it is hereby agreed between the parties hereto as
follows:

         1. Duties of the Subadviser. (a) The Adviser hereby engages the
services of the Subadviser in furtherance of its Advisory Agreement with the
Corporation. Pursuant to this Subadvisory Agreement and subject to the
oversight and review of the Adviser, the Subadviser will manage the investment
and reinvestment of a portion of the assets of each Portfolio listed on
Schedule A attached hereto. The Subadviser will determine in its discretion and
subject to the oversight and review of the Adviser, the securities to be
purchased or sold, will provide the Adviser with records concerning its
activities which the Adviser of the Corporation is required to maintain, and
will render regular reports to the Adviser and to officers and Directors of the
Corporation concerning its discharge of the foregoing responsibilities. The
Subadviser shall discharge the foregoing responsibilities subject to the
control of the officers and the Directors of the Corporation and in compliance
with such policies as the Directors of the Corporation may from time to time
establish, and in compliance with (a) the objectives, policies and limitations
for the Portfolio set forth in the Corporation's current prospectus and
statement of additional information, and (b) applicable laws and regulations.

                                      -1-

<PAGE>

                  The Subadviser represents and warrants to the Adviser that
the portion of the assets which it manages of the Portfolio set forth in
Schedule A will at all times be operated and managed in compliance with all
applicable federal and state laws governing its operations and investments.
Without limiting the foregoing, the Subadviser represents and warrants (1)
qualification, election and maintenance of such election by each Portfolio to
be treated as a "regulated investment company" under Subchapter M, chapter 1 of
the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"), and (2) compliance
with (a) the provisions of the Act and rules adopted thereunder; (b) applicable
federal and state securities, commodities and banking laws; and (c) the
distribution requirements necessary to avoid payment of any excise tax pursuant
to Section 4982 of the Code. The Subadviser further represents and warrants
that to the extent that any statements or omissions made in any Registration
Statement for shares of the Corporation, or any amendment or supplement
thereto, are made in reliance upon and in conformity with information furnished
by the Subadviser expressly for use therein, such Registration Statement and
any amendments or supplements thereto will, when they become effective, conform
in all material respects to the requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as
amended, and the rules and regulations of the Commission thereunder (the "1933
Act") and the Act and will not contain any untrue statement of a material fact
or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary
to make the statements therein not misleading.

                  The Subadviser accepts such employment and agrees, at its own
expense, to render the services set forth herein and to provide the office
space, furnishings, equipment and personnel required by it to perform such
services on the terms and for the compensation provided in this Agreement.

                  (b) The Subadviser agrees to maintain a level of errors and
omissions or professional liability insurance coverage that is from time to
time satisfactory to the Adviser.

         2. Portfolio Transactions. The Subadviser is responsible for decisions
to buy or sell securities and other investments for a portion of the assets of
each Portfolio, broker-dealers and futures commission merchants' selection, and
negotiation of brokerage commission and futures commission merchants' rates. As
a general matter, in executing Portfolio transactions, the Subadviser may
employ or deal with such broker-dealers or futures commission merchants as may,
in the Subadviser's best judgment, provide prompt and reliable execution of the
transactions at favorable prices and reasonable commission rates. In selecting
such broker-dealers or futures commission merchants, the Subadviser shall
consider all relevant factors including price (including the applicable
brokerage commission, dealer spread or futures commission merchant rate), the
size of the order, the nature of the market for the security or other
investment, the timing of the transaction, the reputation, experience and
financial stability of the broker-dealer or futures commission merchant
involved, the quality of the service, the difficulty of execution, the
execution capabilities and operational facilities of the firm involved, and, in
the case of securities, the firm's risk in positioning a block of securities.
Subject to such policies as the Directors may determine and, consistent with
Section 28(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "1934
Act"), the Subadviser shall not be deemed to have acted unlawfully or to have
breached any duty created by this Agreement or otherwise solely by reason of
the Subadviser's having caused a Portfolio to pay a member of an exchange,
broker or dealer an amount of commission for effecting a securities transaction
in excess of the amount of commission another member of an exchange, broker or
dealer would have charged for effecting that transaction, if the Subadviser
determines in good faith that such amount of commission was reasonable in
relation to the value of the brokerage and research services provided by such
member of an exchange, broker or dealer viewed in terms of either that
particular transaction or the

                                      -2-

<PAGE>

Subadviser's overall responsibilities with respect to such Portfolio and to
other clients as to which the Subadviser exercises investment discretion. In
accordance with Section 11(a) of the 1934 Act and Rule 11a2-2(T) thereunder,
and subject to any other applicable laws and regulations including Section
17(e) of the Act and Rule 17e-1 thereunder, the Subadviser may engage its
affiliates, the Adviser and its affiliates or any other subadviser to the
Corporation and its respective affiliates, as broker-dealers or futures
commission merchants to effect Portfolio transactions in securities and other
investments for a Portfolio. The Subadviser will promptly communicate to the
Adviser and to the officers and the Directors of the Corporation such
information relating to Portfolio transactions as they may reasonably request.
To the extent consistent with applicable law, the Subadviser may aggregate
purchase or sell orders for the Portfolio with contemporaneous purchase or sell
orders of other clients of the Subadviser or its affiliated persons. In such
event, allocation of the securities so purchased or sold, as well as the
expenses incurred in the transaction, will be made by the Subadviser in the
manner the Subadviser determines to be equitable and consistent with its and
its affiliates' fiduciary obligations to the Portfolio and to such other
clients. The Adviser hereby acknowledges that such aggregation of orders may
not result in more favorable pricing or lower brokerage commissions in all
instances.

         3. Compensation of the Subadviser. The Subadviser shall not be
entitled to receive any payment from the Corporation and shall look solely and
exclusively to the Adviser for payment of all fees for the services rendered,
facilities furnished and expenses paid by it hereunder. As full compensation
for the Subadviser under this Agreement, the Adviser agrees to pay to the
Subadviser a fee at the annual rates set forth in Schedule A hereto with
respect to the portion of the assets managed by the Subadviser for each
Portfolio listed thereon. Such fee shall be accrued daily and paid monthly as
soon as practicable after the end of each month (i.e., the applicable annual
fee rate divided by 365 applied to each prior days' net assets in order to
calculate the daily accrual). If the Subadviser shall provide its services
under this Agreement for less than the whole of any month, the foregoing
compensation shall be prorated.

         4. Other Services. At the request of the Corporation or the Adviser,
the Subadviser in its discretion may make available to the Corporation, office
facilities, equipment, personnel and other services. Such office facilities,
equipment, personnel and services shall be provided for or rendered by the
Subadviser and billed to the Corporation or the Adviser at the Subadviser's
cost.

         5. Reports. The Corporation, the Adviser and the Subadviser agree to
furnish to each other, if applicable, current prospectuses, statements of
additional information, proxy statements, reports of shareholders, certified
copies of their financial statements, and such other information with regard to
their affairs and that of the Corporation as each may reasonably request.

         6. Status of the Subadviser. The services of the Subadviser to the
Adviser and the Corporation are not be deemed exclusive, and the Subadviser
shall be free to render similar services to others so long as its services to
the Corporation are not impaired thereby. The Subadviser shall be deemed to be
an independent contractor and shall, unless otherwise expressly provided or
authorized, have no authority to act for or represent the Corporation in any
way or otherwise be deemed an agent of the Corporation.

         7. Certain Records. The Subadviser hereby undertakes and agrees to
maintain, in the form and for the period required by Rule 31a-2 under the Act,
all records relating to the investments of the Portfolio that are required to
be maintained by the Corporation pursuant to the requirements

                                      -3-

<PAGE>

of Rule 31a-1 of the Act. Any records required to be maintained and preserved
pursuant to the provisions of Rule 31a-1 and Rule 31a-2 promulgated under the
Act which are prepared or maintained by the Subadviser on behalf of the
Corporation are the property of the Corporation and will be surrendered
promptly to the Corporation or the Adviser on request.

                  The Subadviser agrees that all accounts, books and other
records maintained and preserved by it as required hereby shall be subject at
any time, and from time to time, to such reasonable periodic, special and other
examinations by the Securities and Exchange Commission, the Corporation's
auditors, the Corporation or any representative of the Corporation, the
Adviser, or any governmental agency or other instrumentality having regulatory
authority over the Corporation.

         8. Reference to the Subadviser. Neither the Corporation nor the
Adviser or any affiliate or agent thereof shall make reference to or use the
name of the Subadviser or any of its affiliates in any advertising or
promotional materials without the prior approval of the Subadviser, which
approval shall not be unreasonably withheld.

         9. Liability of the Subadviser. (a) In the absence of willful
misfeasance, bad faith, gross negligence or reckless disregard of obligations
or duties ("disabling conduct") hereunder on the part of the Subadviser (and
its officers, directors, agents, employees, controlling persons, shareholders
and any other person or entity affiliated with the Subadviser), the Subadviser
shall not be subject to liability to the Corporation or to any shareholder of
the Corporation for any act or omission in the course of, or connected with,
rendering services hereunder, including without limitation, any error of
judgment or mistake of law or for any loss suffered by any of them in
connection with the matters to which this Agreement relates, except to the
extent specified in Section 36(b) of the Act concerning loss resulting from a
breach of fiduciary duty with respect to the receipt of compensation for
services. Except for such disabling conduct, the Adviser shall indemnify the
Subadviser (and its officers, directors, partners, agents, employees,
controlling persons, shareholders and any other person or entity affiliated
with the Subadviser) (collectively, the "Indemnified Parties") from any
liability arising from the Subadviser's conduct under this Agreement.

                  (b) The Subadviser agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the
Adviser and its affiliates and each of its directors and officers and each
person, if any, who controls the Adviser within the meaning of Section 15 of
the 1933 Act against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities or
litigation (including legal and other expenses), to which the Adviser or its
affiliates or such directors, officers or controlling person may become subject
under the 1933 Act, under other statutes, at common law or otherwise, which may
be based upon (i) any wrongful act or breach of this Agreement by the
Subadviser, or (ii) any failure by the Subadviser to comply with the
representations and warranties set forth in Section 1 of this Agreement;
provided, however, that in no case is the Subadviser's indemnity in favor of
any person deemed to protect such other persons against any liability to which
such person would otherwise be subject by reasons of willful misfeasance, bad
faith, or gross negligence in the performance of his, her or its duties or by
reason of his, her or its reckless disregard of obligation and duties under
this Agreement.

                  (c) The Subadviser shall not be liable to the Adviser for (i)
any acts of the Adviser or any other subadviser to the Portfolio with respect
to the portion of the assets of a Portfolio not managed by Subadviser and (ii)
acts of the Subadviser which result from acts of the Adviser, including, but
not limited to, a failure of the Adviser to provide accurate and current
information with respect to any records maintained by Adviser or any other
subadviser to a Portfolio, which records

                                      -4-

<PAGE>

are not also maintained by or otherwise available to the Subadviser upon
reasonable request. The Adviser agrees that the Subadviser shall manage the
portion of the assets of a Portfolio allocated to it as if it was a separate
operating Portfolio and shall comply with subsections (a) and (b) of Section 1
of this Subadvisory Agreement (including, but not limited to, the investment
objectives, policies and restrictions applicable to a Portfolio and
qualifications of a Portfolio as a regulated investment company under the Code)
with respect to the portion of assets of a Portfolio allocated to the
Subadviser. The Adviser shall indemnify the Indemnified Parties from any
liability arising from the conduct of the Adviser and any other subadviser with
respect to the portion of a Portfolio's assets not allocated to the Subadviser.

         10. Permissible Interests. Directors and agents of the Corporation are
or may be interested in the Subadviser (or any successor thereof) as directors,
partners, officers or shareholders, or otherwise; directors, partners,
officers, agents and shareholders of the Subadviser are or may be interested in
the Corporation as Directors, or otherwise; and the Subadviser (or any
successor) is or may be interested in the Corporation in some manner.

         11. Term of the Agreement. This Agreement shall continue in full force
and effect with respect to each Portfolio until two years from the date hereof,
and from year to year thereafter so long as such continuance is specifically
approved at least annually (i) by the vote of a majority of those Directors of
the Corporation who are not parties to this Agreement or interested persons of
any such party, cast in person at a meeting called for the purpose of voting on
such approval, and (ii) by the Directors of the Corporation or by vote of a
majority of the outstanding voting securities of the Portfolio voting
separately from any other series of the Corporation.

                  With respect to each Portfolio, this Agreement may be
terminated at any time, without payment of a penalty by the Portfolio or the
Corporation, by vote of a majority of the Directors, or by vote of a majority
of the outstanding voting securities (as defined in the Act) of the Portfolio,
voting separately from any other series of the Corporation, or by the Adviser,
on not less than 30 nor more than 60 days' written notice to the Subadviser.
With respect to each Portfolio, this Agreement may be terminated by the
Subadviser at any time, without the payment of any penalty, on 90 days' written
notice to the Adviser and the Corporation; provided, however, that this
Agreement may not be terminated by the Subadviser unless another subadvisory
agreement has been approved by the Corporation in accordance with the Act, or
after six months' written notice, whichever is earlier. The termination of this
Agreement with respect to any Portfolio or the addition of any Portfolio to
Schedule A hereto (in the manner required by the Act) shall not affect the
continued effectiveness of this Agreement with respect to each other Portfolio
subject hereto. This Agreement shall automatically terminate in the event of
its assignment (as defined by the Act).

                  This Agreement will also terminate in the event that the
Advisory Agreement by and between the Corporation and the Adviser is
terminated.

         12. Severability. If any provision of this Agreement shall be held or
made invalid by a court decision, statute, rule or otherwise, the remainder of
this Agreement shall not be affected thereby.

         13. Amendments. This Agreement may be amended by mutual consent in
writing, but the consent of the Corporation must be obtained in conformity with
the requirements of the Act.

with the laws of the State of New York and the applicable provisions of the
Act. To the extent the applicable laws of the State of New York, or any of the

                             SUBADVISORY AGREEMENT

                  This SUBADVISORY AGREEMENT is dated as of April 1, 1998 by
and between SUNAMERICA ASSET MANAGEMENT CORP., a Delaware corporation (the
"Adviser"), and MORGAN STANLEY ASSET MANAGEMENT INC., a Delaware corporation
(the "Subadviser").

                                  WITNESSETH:

         WHEREAS, the Adviser and Style Select Series, Inc., a Maryland
corporation (the "Corporation"), have entered into an Investment Advisory and
Management Agreement dated as of September 17, 1996, as amended August 20,
1997 (the "Advisory Agreement") pursuant to which the Adviser has agreed to
provide investment management, advisory and administrative services to the
Corporation; and

         WHEREAS, the Corporation is registered under the Investment Company
Act of 1940, as amended (the "Act"), as an open-end management investment
company and may issue shares of common stock, par value $.0001 per share, in
separately designated series representing separate funds with their own
investment objectives, policies and purposes; and

         WHEREAS, the Subadviser is engaged in the business of rendering
investment advisory services and is registered as an investment adviser under
the Investment Advisers Act of 1940, as amended; and

         WHEREAS, the Adviser desires to retain the Subadviser to furnish
investment advisory services to the investment series of the Corporation
listed on Schedule A attached hereto (the "Portfolio"), and the Subadviser is
willing to furnish such services;

         NOW, THEREFORE, it is hereby agreed between the parties hereto as
follows:

         1. Duties of the Subadviser. The Adviser hereby engages the services
of the Subadviser in furtherance of its Investment Advisory and Management
Agreement with the Corporation. Pursuant to this Subadvisory Agreement and
subject to the oversight and review of the Adviser, the Subadviser will manage
the investment and reinvestment of a portion of the assets of each Portfolio
listed on Schedule A attached hereto. The Subadviser will determine in its
discretion and subject to the oversight and review of the Adviser, the
securities to be purchased or sold, will provide the Adviser with records
concerning its activities which the Adviser or the Corporation is required to
maintain, and will render regular reports to the Adviser and to officers and
Directors of the Corporation concerning its discharge of the foregoing
responsibilities. The Subadviser shall discharge the foregoing
responsibilities subject to the control of the officers and the Directors of
the Corporation and in compliance with such policies as the Directors of the
Corporation may from time to time establish, and in compliance with (a) the
objectives, policies, and limitations for the Portfolio set forth in the
Corporation's current prospectus and statement of additional information, and
(b) applicable laws and regulations.

                  The Subadviser represents and warrants to the Adviser that
the portion of the assets which it manages of the Portfolio set forth in
Schedule A will at all times be operated and managed in compliance with all
applicable federal and state laws governing its operations and investments.
Without limiting the foregoing, the Subadviser represents and warrants (1)
qualification, election and maintenance of such election by each Portfolio to
be treated as a 

                                      -1-

<PAGE>

"regulated investment company" under subchapter M, chapter 1 of the Internal
Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"), and (2) compliance with (a) the
provisions of the Act and rules adopted thereunder; (b) applicable federal and
state securities, commodities and banking laws; and (c) the distribution
requirements necessary to avoid payment of any excise tax pursuant to Section
4982 of the Code. The Subadviser further represents and warrants that to the
extent that any statements or omissions made in any Registration Statement for
shares of the Corporation, or any amendment or supplement thereto, are made in
reliance upon and in conformity with information furnished by the Subadviser
expressly for use therein, such Registration Statement and any amendments or
supplements thereto will, when they become effective, conform in all material
respects to the requirements of the Securities Act of 1933 and the rules and
regulations of the Commission thereunder (the "1933 Act") and the Act and will
not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any
material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the
circumstance under which they were made not misleading.

                  The Subadviser accepts such employment and agrees, at its
own expense, to render the services set forth herein and to provide the office
space, furnishings, equipment and personnel required by it to perform such
services on the terms and for the compensation provided in this Agreement.

         2. Portfolio Transactions. The Subadviser is responsible for
decisions to buy or sell securities and other investments for a portion of the
assets of each Portfolio, the selection of broker-dealers and futures
commission merchants', and negotiation of brokerage commission and futures
commission merchants' rates. As a general matter, in executing Portfolio
transactions, the Subadviser may employ or deal with such broker-dealers or
futures commission merchants as may, in the Subadviser's best judgement,
provide prompt and reliable execution of the transactions at favorable prices
and reasonable commission rates. In selecting such broker-dealers or futures
commission merchants, the Subadviser shall consider all relevant factors
including price (including the applicable brokerage commission, dealer spread
or futures commission merchant rate), the size of the order, the nature of the
market for the security or other investment, the timing of the transaction,
the reputation, experience and financial stability of the broker-dealer or
futures commission merchant involved, the quality of the service, the
difficulty of execution, the execution capabilities and operational facilities
of the firm involved, and, in the case of securities, the firm's risk in
positioning a block of securities. Subject to such policies as the Directors
may determine and consistent with Section 28(e) of the Securities Exchange Act
of 1934, as amended (the "1934 Act"), the Subadviser shall not be deemed to
have acted unlawfully or to have breached any duty created by this Agreement
or otherwise solely by reason of the Subadviser's having caused a Portfolio to
pay a member of an exchange, broker or dealer an amount of commission for
effecting a securities transaction in excess of the amount of commission
another member of an exchange, broker or dealer would have charged for
effecting that transaction, if the Subadviser determines in good faith that
such amount of commission was reasonable in relation to the value of the
brokerage and research services provided by such member of an exchange, broker
or dealer viewed in terms of either that particular transaction or the
Subadviser's overall responsibilities with respect to such Portfolio and to
other clients as to which the Subadviser exercises investment discretion. In
accordance with Section 11(a) of the 1934 Act and Rule 11a2-2(T) thereunder,
and subject to any other applicable laws and regulations including Section
17(e) of the Act and Rule 17e-1 thereunder, the Subadviser may engage its
affiliates, the Adviser and its affiliates or any other subadviser to the
Corporation and its respective affiliates, as broker-dealers or futures
commission merchants to effect Portfolio transactions in

                                      -2-

<PAGE>

securities and other investments for a Portfolio. The Subadviser will promptly
communicate to the Adviser and to the officers and the Directors of the
Corporation such information relating to Portfolio transactions as they may
reasonably request. To the extent consistent with applicable law, the
Subadviser may aggregate purchase or sell orders for the Portfolio with
contemporaneous purchase or sell orders of other clients of the Subadviser or
its affiliated persons. In such event, allocation of the securities so
purchased or sold, as well as the expenses incurred in the transaction, will
be made by the Subadviser in the manner the Subadviser determines to be
equitable and consistent with its and its affiliates' fiduciary obligations to
the Portfolio and to such other clients. The Adviser hereby acknowledges that
such aggregation of orders may not result in more favorable pricing or lower
brokerage commissions in all instances.

         3. Compensation of the Subadviser. The Subadviser shall not be
entitled to receive any payment from the Corporation and shall look solely and
exclusively to the Adviser for payment of all fees for the services rendered,
facilities furnished and expenses paid by it hereunder. As full compensation
for the Subadviser under this Agreement, the Adviser agrees to pay to the
Subadviser a fee at the annual rates set forth in Schedule A hereto with
respect to the portion of the assets managed by the Subadviser for each
Portfolio listed thereon. Such fee shall be accrued daily and paid monthly as
soon as practicable after the end of each month (i.e., the applicable annual
fee rate divided by 365 applied to each prior days' net assets in order to
calculate the daily accrual). If the Subadviser shall provide its services
under this Agreement for less than the whole of any month, the foregoing
compensation shall be prorated.

         4. Other Services. At the request of the Corporation or the Adviser,
the Subadviser in its discretion may make available to the Corporation, office
facilities, equipment, personnel and other services. Such office facilities,
equipment, personnel and services shall be provided for or rendered by the
Subadviser and billed to the Corporation or the Adviser as agreed upon by the
Corporation or the Adviser and the Subadviser.

         5. Reports. The Corporation, the Adviser and the Subadviser agree to
furnish to each other, if applicable, current prospectuses, statements of
additional information, proxy statements, reports of shareholders, certified
copies of their financial statements, and such other information with regard
to their affairs and that of the Corporation as each may reasonably request.

         6. Status of the Subadviser. The services of the Subadviser to the
Adviser and the Corporation are not to be deemed exclusive, and the Subadviser
shall be free to render similar services to others so long as its services to
the Corporation are not impaired thereby. The Subadviser shall be deemed to be
an independent contractor and shall, unless otherwise expressly provided or
authorized, have no authority to act for or represent the Corporation in any
way or otherwise be deemed an agent of the Corporation.

         7. Certain Records. The Subadviser hereby undertakes and agrees to
maintain, in the form and for the period required by Rule 31a-2 under the Act,
all records relating to the investments of the Portfolio that are required to
be maintained by the Corporation pursuant to the requirements of Rule 31a-1 of
that Act. Any records required to be maintained and preserved pursuant to the
provisions of Rule 31a-1 and Rule 31a-2 promulgated under the Act which are
prepared or maintained by the Subadviser on behalf of the Corporation are the
property of the Corporation and will be surrendered promptly to the
Corporation or the Adviser on request.

                                      -3-

<PAGE>

                  The Subadviser agrees that all accounts, books and other
records maintained and preserved by it as required hereby shall be subject at
any time, and from time to time, to such reasonable periodic, special and
other examinations by the Securities and Exchange Commission, the
Corporation's auditors, the Corporation or any representative of the
Corporation, the Adviser, or any governmental agency or other instrumentality
having regulatory authority over the Corporation.

         8. Reference to the Subadviser. Neither the Corporation nor the
Adviser or any affiliate or agent thereof shall make reference to or use the
name of the Subadviser or any of its affiliates in any advertising or
promotional materials without the prior approval of the Subadviser, which
approval shall not be unreasonably withheld.

         9. Liability of the Subadviser. (a) In the absence of willful
misfeasance, bad faith, gross negligence or reckless disregard of obligations
or duties hereunder on the part of the Subadviser (and its officers,
directors, employees, controlling persons, shareholders and any other person
or entity affiliated with the Subadviser) the Subadviser shall not be subject
to liability to the Corporation or to any shareholder of the Corporation for
any act or omission in the course of, or connected with, rendering services
hereunder, including without limitation, any error of judgment or mistake of
law or for any loss suffered by any of them in connection with the matters to
which this Agreement relates, except to the extent specified in Section 36(b)
of the Act concerning loss resulting from a breach of fiduciary duty with
respect to the receipt of compensation for services.

                  (b) The Adviser agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the
Subadviser and its affiliates and each of their directors and officers and
each persons, if any, who controls the Subadviser within the meaning of
Section 15 of the 1933 Act against any and all losses, claims, damages,
liabilities or litigation (including reasonable legal and other expenses), to
which the Subadviser or its affiliates or such directors, officers or
controlling person may become subject under the 1933 Act, under an other
statute, at common law or otherwise, which may be based upon any breach of
this Agreement by the Adviser; provided, however, that in no case is the
Adviser's indemnity in favor of any persons deemed to protect such person
against any liability to which such person would otherwise be subject by
reason of willful misfeasance, bad faith, or gross negligence in the
performance of his, here or its duties or by reasons of his, her or its
reckless disregard of obligations and duties under this Agreement.

                  (c) The Subadviser agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the
Adviser and its affiliates and each of its directors and officers and each
person, if any, who controls the Adviser within the meaning of Section 15 of
the 1933 Act against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities or
litigation (including reasonable legal and other expenses), to which the
Adviser or its affiliates or such directors, officers or controlling person
may become subject under the 1933 Act, under other statutes, at common law or
otherwise, which may be based upon (i) breach of this Agreement by the
Subadviser, or (ii) any failure by the Subadviser to comply with the
representations and warranties set forth in Section 1 of this Agreement;
provided, however, that in no case is the Subadviser's indemnity in favor of
any person deemed to protect such other persons against any liability to which
such person would otherwise be subject by reasons of willful misfeasance, bad
faith, or gross negligence in the performance of his, her or its duties or by
reason of his, her or its reckless disregard of obligation and duties under
this Agreement.

<PAGE>

                  (d) The Subadviser shall not be liable to the Adviser for
(i) any acts of the Adviser or any other subadviser to the Portfolio with
respect to the portion of the assets of a Portfolio not managed by Subadviser
or (ii) acts of the Subadviser which result from acts of the Adviser,
including, but not limited to, a failure of the Adviser to provide accurate
and current information with respect to any records maintained by Adviser or
any other subadviser to a Portfolio, which records are not also maintained by
or otherwise available to the Subadviser upon reasonable request. The Adviser
agrees that Subadviser shall manage the portion of the assets of a Portfolio
allocated to it as if it was a separate operating Portfolio and shall comply
with subsections (a) and (b) of Section I of this Subadvisory Agreement
(including, but not limited to, the investment objectives, policies and
restrictions applicable to a Portfolio and qualifications of a Portfolio as a
regulated investment company under the Code) with respect to the portion of
assets of a Portfolio allocated to Subadviser. The Adviser shall indemnify the
Indemnified Parties from any liability arising from the conduct of the Adviser
and any other subadviser with respect to the portion of a Portfolio's assets
not allocated to Subadviser.

         10. Permissible Interests. Directors and agents of the Corporation
are or may be interested in the Subadviser (or any successor thereof) as
directors, partners, officers, or shareholders, or otherwise; directors,
partners, officers, agents, and shareholders of the Subadviser are or may be
interested in the Corporation as Directors, or otherwise; and the Subadviser
(or any successor) is or may be interested in the Corporation in some manner.

         11. Term of the Agreement. This Agreement shall continue in full
force and effect with respect to each Portfolio until two years from the date
hereof, and from year to year thereafter so long as such continuance is
specifically approved at least annually (i) by the vote of a majority of those
Directors of the Corporation who are not parties to this Agreement or
interested persons of any such party, cast in person at a meeting called for
the purpose of voting on such approval, and (ii) by the Directors of the
Corporation or by vote of a majority of the outstanding voting securities of
the Portfolio voting separately from any other series of the Corporation.

                  With respect to each Portfolio, this Agreement may be
terminated at any time, without payment of a penalty by the Portfolio or the
Corporation, by vote of a majority of the Directors, or by vote of a majority
of the outstanding voting securities (as defined in the Act) of the Portfolio,
voting separately from any other series of the Corporation, or by the Adviser,
on not less than 30 nor more than 60 days' written notice to the Subadviser.
With respect to each Portfolio, this Agreement may be terminated by the
Subadviser at any time, without the payment of any penalty, on 90 days'
written notice to the Adviser and the Corporation; provided, however, that
this Agreement may not be terminated by the Subadviser unless another
subadvisory agreement has been approved by the Corporation in accordance with
the Act, or after six months' written notice, whichever is earlier. The
termination of this Agreement with respect to any Portfolio or the addition of
any Portfolio to Schedule A hereto (in the manner required by the Act) shall
not affect the continued effectiveness of this Agreement with respect to each
other Portfolio subject hereto. This Agreement shall automatically terminate
in the event of its assignment (as defined by the Act).

                  This Agreement will also terminate in the event that the
Advisory Agreement by and between the Corporation and the Adviser is
terminated.

                                      -5-

<PAGE>

         12. Severability. If any provision of this Agreement shall be held or
made invalid by a court decision, statute, rule or otherwise, the remainder of
this Agreement shall not be affected thereby.

         13. Amendments. This Agreement may be amended by mutual consent in
writing, but the consent of the Corporation must be obtained in conformity
with the requirements of the Act.

         14. Governing Law. This Agreement shall be construed in accordance
with the laws of the State of New York and the applicable provisions of the
Act. To the extent the applicable laws of the State of New York, or any of the
provisions herein, conflict with the applicable provisions of the Act, the
latter shall control.

         15. Separate Series. Pursuant to the provisions of the Articles of
Incorporation and the General Laws of the State of Maryland, each Portfolio is
a separate series of the Corporation, and all debts, liabilities, obligations
and expenses of a particular Portfolio shall be enforceable only against the
assets of that Portfolio and not against the assets of any other Portfolio or
of the Corporation as a whole.

         16. Notices. All notices shall be in writing and deemed properly
given when delivered or mailed by United States certified or registered mail,

and state securities, commodities and banking laws, provided that the Adviser
shall provide the Subadviser with written direction as to the requirements of
applicable federal and state banking laws. For purposes of the preceding
sentence, disclosure in the Corporation's prospectus and/or statement of
additional information of applicable state insurance laws and regulations and
applicable federal and state banking laws and regulations shall constitute
"written direction" thereof. The Subadviser represents and warrants that to
the extent that any statements or omissions regarding the Subadviser made in
any Registration Statement for the shares of the Corporation, or any amendment
or supplement thereto, are made in reliance upon and in conformity with
written information furnished by the Subadviser expressly for use therein,
such Registration Statement and any amendments or supplements thereto will,
when they become effective, conform in all material respects to the
requirements of the Securities Act of 1933 and the rules and regulations of
the Commission thereunder (the "1933 Act") and the Act and will not contain
any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact
required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not
misleading. In addition, the Adviser represents and warrants that the
Registration Statement for the shares of the Corporation, or any amendment or
supplement thereto, other than statements or omissions regarding the
Subadviser provided in writing by the Subadviser expressly for use therein,
will, when they become effective, conform in all material respects to the
requirements of the 1933 Act and the Act and will not contain any untrue
statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be
stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading.

                  The Subadviser accepts such appointment and agrees, at its
own expense, to render the services set forth herein and to provide the office
space, furnishings, equipment and personnel required by it to perform such
services on the terms and for the compensation provided in this Agreement.

                  (b) The Subadviser agrees to maintain a level of errors and
omissions or professional liability insurance coverage that is from time to
time satisfactory to the Adviser.

         2. Portfolio Transactions. The Subadviser is responsible for
decisions to buy or sell securities and other investments for a portion of the
assets of each Portfolio, broker-dealers and futures commission merchants'
selection, and negotiation of brokerage commission and futures commission
merchants' rates. As a general matter, in executing Portfolio transactions,
the Subadviser may employ or deal with such broker-dealers or futures
commission merchants as may, in the Subadviser's best judgement, provide
prompt and reliable execution of the transactions at favorable prices and
reasonable commission rates. In selecting such broker-dealers or futures
commission merchants, the Subadviser shall consider all relevant factors
including price (including the applicable brokerage commission, dealer spread
or futures commission merchant rate), the size of the order, the nature of the
market for the security or other investment, the timing of the transaction,
the reputation, experience and financial stability of the broker-dealer or
futures commission merchant involved, the quality of the service, the
difficulty of execution, the execution capabilities and operational facilities
of the firm involved, and, in the case of securities, the firm's risk in
positioning a block of securities. Subject to such policies as the

<PAGE>

Directors may determine and consistent with Section 28(e) of the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "1934 Act"), the Subadviser shall not be
deemed to have acted unlawfully or to have breached any duty created by this
Agreement or otherwise solely by reason of the Subadviser's having caused a
Portfolio to pay a member of an exchange, broker or dealer an amount of
commission for effecting a securities transaction in excess of the amount of
commission another member of an exchange, broker or dealer would have charged
for effecting that transaction, if the Subadviser determines in good faith
that such amount of commission was reasonable in relation to the value of the
brokerage and research services provided by such member of an exchange, broker
or dealer viewed in terms of either that particular transaction or the
Subadviser's overall responsibilities with respect to such Portfolio and to
other clients as to which the Subadviser exercises investment discretion. In
accordance with Section 11(a) of the 1934 Act and Rule 11a2-2(T) thereunder,
and subject to any other applicable laws and regulations including Section
17(e) of the Act and Rule 17e-1 thereunder, the Subadviser may engage its
affiliates, the Adviser and its affiliates or any other subadviser to the
Corporation and its respective affiliates, as broker-dealers or futures
commission merchants to effect Portfolio transactions in securities and other
investments for a Portfolio. The Subadviser will promptly communicate to the
Adviser and to the officers and the Directors of the Corporation such
information relating to Portfolio transactions as may be mutually agreed with
the Subadviser.

         3. Compensation of the Subadviser. The Subadviser shall not be
entitled to receive any payment from the Corporation and shall look solely and
exclusively to the Adviser for payment of all fees for the services rendered,
facilities furnished and expenses paid by it hereunder. As full compensation
for the Subadviser under this Agreement, the Adviser agrees to pay the
Subadviser a fee at the annual rates set forth in Schedule A hereto with
respect to the portion of the assets managed by the Subadviser for each
Portfolio listed thereon. Such fee shall be accrued daily and paid monthly as
soon as practicable after the end of each month (i.e., the applicable annual
fee rate divided by 365 applied to each prior days' net assets in order to
calculate the daily accrual), but in no event later than the 15th day of the
following month. If the Subadviser shall provide its services under this
Agreement for less than the whole of any month, the foregoing compensation
shall be prorated.

         4. Other Services. At the request of the Corporation or the Adviser,
the Subadviser in its discretion may make available to the Corporation, office
facilities, equipment, personnel and other services. Such office facilities,
equipment, personnel and services shall be provided for or rendered by the
Subadviser and billed to the Corporation or the Adviser at the Subadviser's
cost.

         5. Reports. The Corporation, the Adviser and the Subadviser agree to
furnish to each other, if applicable, current prospectuses, statements of
additional information, proxy statements, reports of shareholders, certified
copies of their financial statements, and such other information with regard
to their affairs and that of the Corporation as each may reasonably request.

         6. Status of the Subadviser. The services of the Subadviser to the
Adviser and the Corporation are not to be deemed exclusive, and the Subadviser
shall be free to render similar services to others so long as its services to
the Corporation are not impaired thereby. The Subadviser shall be deemed to be
an independent contractor and shall, unless otherwise expressly provided or
authorized, have no authority to act for or represent the Corporation in any
way or otherwise be deemed an agent of the Corporation.

<PAGE>

         7. Services to Other Clients. Nothing contained in this Agreement
shall limit or restrict (i) the freedom of the Subadviser, or any affiliated
persons thereof, to render investment management and corporate administrative
services to other investment companies, to act as investment manager or
investment counselor to other persons, firms, or corporations, or to engage in
any other business activities, or (ii) the right of any director, officer, or
employee of the Subadviser, who may also be a director, officer, or employee
of the Company, to engage in any other business or to devote his or her time
and attention in part to the management or other aspects of any other
business, whether of a similar nature or a dissimilar nature.

         8. Certain Records. The Subadviser hereby undertakes and agrees to
maintain, in the form and for the period required by Rule 31a-2 under the Act,
all records relating to the investments of the Portfolio that are required to
be maintained by the Corporation pursuant to the requirements of Rule 31a-1 of
the Act. Any records required to be maintained and preserved pursuant to the
provisions of Rule 31a-1 and Rule 31a-2 promulgated under the Act which are
prepared or maintained by the Subadviser on behalf of the Corporation are the
property of the Corporation and will be surrendered promptly to the
Corporation or the Adviser on request.

                  The Subadviser agrees that all accounts, books and other
records maintained and preserved by it as required hereby shall be subject at
any time, and from time to time, to such reasonable periodic, special and
other examinations by the Securities and Exchange Commission, or any
governmental agency or other instrumentality having regulatory authority over
the Corporation, and upon reasonable request and during normal business hours
the Corporation's auditors, the Corporation or any representative of the
Corporation, the Adviser.

         9. Reference to the Subadviser. Subject to the terms of a separate
Logo Licensing Agreement, neither the Corporation nor the Adviser or any
affiliate or agent thereof shall make reference to or use the name of the
Subadviser or any of its affiliates in any advertising or promotional
materials without the prior approval of the Subadviser, which approval shall
not be unreasonably withheld.

         10. Liability of the Subadviser. (a) In the absence of willful
misfeasance, bad faith, gross negligence or reckless disregard of obligations
or duties ("disabling conduct") hereunder on the part of the Subadviser (and
its officers, directors, agents, employees, controlling persons, shareholders
and any other person or entity affiliated with the Subadviser) the Subadviser
shall not be subject to liability to the Corporation or to any shareholder of
the Corporation for any act or omission in the course of, or connected with,
rendering services hereunder, including without limitation, any error of
judgment or mistake of law or for any loss suffered by any of them in
connection with the matters to which this Agreement relates, except to the
extent specified in Section 36(b) of the Act concerning loss resulting from a
breach of fiduciary duty with respect to the receipt of compensation for
services. Except for such disabling conduct, the Adviser shall indemnify the
Subadviser (and its officers, directors, partners, agents, employees,
controlling persons, shareholders and any other person or entity affiliated
with the Subadviser) (collectively, the "Indemnified Parties") from any
liability arising from the Subadviser's conduct under this Agreement.
Subadviser hereby indemnifies, defends and protects Adviser and holds Adviser
harmless, from and against any and all liability arising out of Subadviser's
disabling conduct.

                  (b) The Subadviser agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the
Adviser and its affiliates and each of its directors and officers and each
person, if any, who controls the Adviser within the meaning of Section 15 of
the 1933 Act against any and all losses, claims, damages,

<PAGE>

liabilities or litigation (including legal and other expenses), to which the
Adviser or its affiliates or such directors, officers or controlling person
may become subject under the 1933 Act, under other statutes, at common law or
otherwise, which may be based upon (i) any wrongful act or material breach of
this Agreement by the Subadviser arising from the Subadviser's disabling
conduct, or (ii) any failure by the Subadviser to comply with the
representations and warranties set forth in Section 1 of this Agreement;
provided, however, that in no case is the Subadviser's indemnity in favor of
any person deemed to protect such other persons against any liability to which
such person would otherwise be subject by reasons of willful misfeasance, bad
faith, or gross negligence in the performance of his, her or its duties or by
reason of his, her or its reckless disregard of obligation and duties under
this Agreement.

                  (c) The Subadviser shall not be liable to the Adviser for
(i) any acts of the Adviser or any other subadviser to the Portfolio with
respect to the portion of the assets of a Portfolio not managed by the
Subadviser and (ii) acts of the Subadviser which result from acts of the
Adviser, including, but not limited to, a failure of the Adviser to provide
accurate and current information with respect to any records maintained by the
Adviser or any other subadviser to a Portfolio, which records are not also
maintained by the Subadviser. The Adviser agrees that the Subadviser shall
manage the portion of the assets of a Portfolio allocated to it as if it was a
separate operating Portfolio and shall comply with subsections (a) and (b) of
Section I of this Subadvisory Agreement (including, but not limited to, the
investment objectives, policies and restrictions applicable to a Portfolio and
qualifications of a Portfolio as a regulated investment company under the
Code) with respect to the portion of assets of a Portfolio allocated to the
Subadviser as if it was a separate operating Portfolio. The Adviser shall
defend, indemnify and hold harmless the Indemnified Parties from any liability
arising from the conduct of the Adviser or other subadviser with respect to
the portion of a Portfolio' assets not allocated to the Subadviser.

         11. Permissible Interests. Directors and agents of the Corporation
are or may be interested in the Subadviser (or any successor thereof) as
directors, partners, officers, or shareholders, or otherwise; directors,
partners, officers, agents, and shareholders of the Subadviser are or may be
interested in the Corporation as directors, or otherwise; and the Subadviser
(or any successor) is or may be interested in the Corporation in some manner.

         12. Term of the Agreement. This Agreement shall continue in full
force and effect with respect to each Portfolio until two years from the date
hereof, and from year to year thereafter so long as such continuance is
specifically approved at least annually (i) by the vote of a majority of those
Directors of the Corporation who are not parties to this Agreement or
interested persons of any such party, cast in person at a meeting called for
the purpose of voting on such approval, and (ii) by the Directors of the
Corporation or by vote of a majority of the outstanding voting securities of
the Portfolio voting separately from any other series of the Corporation.

                  With respect to each Portfolio, this Agreement may be
terminated at any time, without payment of a penalty by the Portfolio or the
Corporation, by vote of a majority of the Directors, or by vote of a majority
of the outstanding voting securities (as defined in the Act) of the Portfolio,
voting separately from any other series of the Corporation, or by the Adviser,
on not less than 30 nor more than 60 days' written notice to the Subadviser.
With respect to each Portfolio, this Agreement may be terminated by the
Subadviser at any time, without the payment of any penalty, on 90 days'
written notice to the Adviser and the Corporation; provided, however, that
this Agreement may not be terminated by the Subadviser unless another
subadvisory agreement has been approved by the Corporation in accordance with
the Act, or after six months' written notice,

<PAGE>

whichever is earlier. In the event of such a termination, the Adviser will use
its best efforts, and cause the Corporation to use its best efforts, to engage
another subadviser for the Portfolio as soon as possible. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, the Subadviser may terminate the Agreement on 60 days' written
notice to the Adviser and the Corporation, in the event of a breach of this
Agreement by the Adviser. The termination of this Agreement with respect to
any Portfolio or the addition of any Portfolio to Schedule A hereto (in the
manner required by the Act) shall not affect the continued effectiveness of
this Agreement with respect to each other Portfolio subject hereto. This
Agreement shall automatically terminate in the event of its assignment (as
defined by the Act).

                  This Agreement will also terminate in the event that the
Advisory Agreement by and between the Corporation and the Adviser is
terminated.

         13. Severability. If any provision of this Agreement shall be held or
made invalid by a court decision, statute, rule or otherwise, the remainder of
this Agreement shall not be affected thereby.

         14. Amendments. This Agreement may be amended by mutual consent in
writing, but the consent of the Corporation must be obtained in conformity
with the requirements of the Act.

         15. Governing Law. This Agreement shall be construed in accordance
with the laws of the State of New York and the applicable provisions of the
Act. To the extent the applicable laws of the State of New York, or any of the
provisions herein, conflict with the applicable provisions of the Act, the
latter shall control.

         16. Separate Series. Pursuant to the provisions of the Articles of
Incorporation, each Portfolio is a separate series of the Corporation, and all
debts, liabilities, obligations and expenses of a particular Portfolio shall
be enforceable only against the assets of that Portfolio and not against the
assets of any other Portfolio or of the Corporation as a whole.

         18. Notices. All notices shall be in writing and deemed properly
given when delivered or express delivery service by United States certified or
registered mail, return receipt requested, postage prepaid, addressed as

                             SUBADVISORY AGREEMENT

                  This SUBADVISORY AGREEMENT is dated as of August 20, 1997,
as amended May 21, 1998 by and between SUNAMERICA ASSET MANAGEMENT CORP., a
Delaware corporation (the "Adviser"), and WELLINGTON MANAGEMENT COMPANY, LLP,
a Massachusetts general partnership (the "Subadviser").

                                  WITNESSETH:

         WHEREAS, the Adviser and Style Select Series, Inc., a Maryland
corporation (the "Corporation"), have entered into an Investment Advisory and
Management Agreement dated as of September 17, 1996, as amended from time to
time (the "Advisory Agreement"), pursuant to which the Adviser has agreed to
provide investment management, advisory and administrative services to the
Corporation; and

         WHEREAS, the Corporation is registered under the Investment Company
Act of 1940, as amended (the "Act"), as an open-end management investment
company and may issue shares of common stock, par value $.0001 per share, in
separately designated series representing separate funds with their own
investment objectives, policies and purposes; and

         WHEREAS, the Subadviser is engaged in the business of rendering
investment advisory services and is registered as an investment adviser under
the Investment Advisers Act of 1940, as amended; and

         WHEREAS, the Adviser desires to retain the Subadviser to furnish
investment advisory services to the investment series of the Corporation
listed on Schedule A attached hereto (the "Portfolio"), and the Subadviser is
willing to furnish such services;

         NOW, THEREFORE, it is hereby agreed between the parties hereto as
follows:

         1. Duties of the Subadviser. (a) The Adviser hereby engages the
services of the Subadviser in furtherance of its Advisory Agreement with the
Corporation. Pursuant to this Subadvisory Agreement and subject to the
oversight and review of the Adviser, the Subadviser will manage the investment
and reinvestment of a portion of the assets of each Portfolio listed on
Schedule A attached hereto. The Subadviser will determine in its discretion
and subject to the oversight and review of the Adviser, the securities to be
purchased or sold, will provide the Adviser with records concerning its
activities which the Adviser of the Corporation is required to maintain, and
will render regular reports to the Adviser and to officers and Directors of
the Corporation concerning its discharge of the foregoing responsibilities.
The Subadviser shall discharge the foregoing responsibilities subject to the
control of the officers and the Directors of the Corporation and in compliance
with such policies as the Directors of the Corporation may from time to time
establish, and in compliance with (a) the objectives, policies and limitations
for the Portfolio set forth in the Corporation's current prospectus and
statement of additional information, and (b) applicable laws and regulations.

                                      -1-

<PAGE>

                  The Subadviser represents and warrants to the Adviser that
the portion of the assets which it manages of the Portfolio set forth in
Schedule A will at all times be operated and managed in compliance with all
applicable federal and state laws governing its operations and investments.
Without limiting the foregoing, the Subadviser represents and warrants (1)
qualification, election and maintenance of such election by each Portfolio to
be treated as a "regulated investment company" under Subchapter M, chapter 1
of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"), and (2)
compliance with (a) the provisions of the Act and rules adopted thereunder;
(b) applicable federal and state securities, commodities and banking laws; and
(c) the distribution requirements necessary to avoid payment of any excise tax
pursuant to Section 4982 of the Code. The Subadviser further represents and
warrants that to the extent that any statements or omissions made in any
Registration Statement for shares of the Corporation, or any amendment or
supplement thereto, are made in reliance upon and in conformity with
information furnished by the Subadviser expressly for use therein, such
Registration Statement and any amendments or supplements thereto will, when
they become effective, conform in all material respects to the requirements of
the Securities Act of 1933 and the rules and regulations of the Commission
thereunder (the "1933 Act") and the Act and will not contain any untrue
statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be
stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading.

                  The Subadviser accepts such employment and agrees, at its
own expense, to render the services set forth herein and to provide the office
space, furnishings, equipment and personnel required by it to perform such
services on the terms and for the compensation provided in this Agreement.

                  (b) The Subadviser agrees to maintain a level of errors and
omissions or professional liability insurance coverage that is from time to
time satisfactory to the Adviser.

         2. Portfolio Transactions. The Subadviser is responsible for
decisions to buy or sell securities and other investments for a portion of the
assets of each Portfolio, broker-dealers and futures commission merchants'
selection, and negotiation of brokerage commission and futures commission
merchants' rates. As a general matter, in executing Portfolio transactions,
the Subadviser may employ or deal with such broker-dealers or futures
commission merchants as may, in the Subadviser's best judgment, provide prompt
and reliable execution of the transactions at favorable prices and reasonable
commission rates. In selecting such broker-dealers or futures commission
merchants, the Subadviser shall consider all relevant factors including price
(including the applicable brokerage commission, dealer spread or futures
commission merchant rate), the size of the order, the nature of the market for
the security or other investment, the timing of the transaction, the
reputation, experience and financial stability of the broker-dealer or futures
commission merchant involved, the quality of the service, the difficulty of
execution, the execution capabilities and operational facilities of the firm
involved, and, in the case of securities, the firm's risk in positioning a
block of securities. Subject to such policies as the Directors may determine
and, consistent with Section 28(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as
amended (the "1934 Act"), the Subadviser shall not be deemed to have acted
unlawfully or to have breached any duty created by this Agreement or otherwise
solely by reason of the Subadviser's having caused a Portfolio to pay a member
of an exchange, broker or dealer an amount of commission for effecting a
securities transaction in excess of the amount of commission another member of
an exchange, broker or dealer would have charged for effecting that
transaction, if the Subadviser determines in good faith that such amount of
commission was reasonable in relation to the value of the brokerage and
research services provided by such member of an exchange, broker or dealer
viewed in terms of either that particular transaction or the

                                      -2-

<PAGE>

Subadviser's overall responsibilities with respect to such Portfolio and to
other clients as to which the Subadviser exercises investment discretion. In
accordance with Section 11(a) of the 1934 Act and Rule 11a2-2(T) thereunder,
and subject to any other applicable laws and regulations including Section
17(e) of the Act and Rule 17e-1 thereunder, the Subadviser may engage its
affiliates, the Adviser and its affiliates or any other subadviser to the
Corporation and its respective affiliates, as broker-dealers or futures
commission merchants to effect Portfolio transactions in securities and other
investments for a Portfolio. The Subadviser will promptly communicate to the
Adviser and to the officers and the Directors of the Corporation such
information relating to Portfolio transactions as they may reasonably request.
To the extent consistent with applicable law, the Subadviser may aggregate
purchase or sell orders for the Portfolio with contemporaneous purchase or
sell orders of other clients of the Subadviser or its affiliated persons. In
such event, allocation of the securities so purchased or sold, as well as the
expenses incurred in the transaction, will be made by the Subadviser in the
manner the Subadviser determines to be equitable and consistent with its and
its affiliates' fiduciary obligations to the Portfolio and to such other
clients. The Adviser hereby acknowledges that such aggregation of orders may
not result in more favorable pricing or lower brokerage commissions in all
instances.

         3. Compensation of the Subadviser. The Subadviser shall not be
entitled to receive any payment from the Corporation and shall look solely and
exclusively to the Adviser for payment of all fees for the services rendered,
facilities furnished and expenses paid by it hereunder. As full compensation
for the Subadviser under this Agreement, the Adviser agrees to pay to the
Subadviser a fee at the annual rates set forth in Schedule A hereto with
respect to the portion of the assets managed by the Subadviser for each
Portfolio listed thereon. Such fee shall be accrued daily and paid monthly as
soon as practicable after the end of each month (i.e., the applicable annual
fee rate divided by 365 applied to each prior days' net assets in order to
calculate the daily accrual). If the Subadviser shall provide its services
under this Agreement for less than the whole of any month, the foregoing
compensation shall be prorated.

         4. Other Services. At the request of the Corporation or the Adviser,
the Subadviser in its discretion may make available to the Corporation, office
facilities, equipment, personnel and other services. Such office facilities,
equipment, personnel and services shall be provided for or rendered by the
Subadviser and billed to the Corporation or the Adviser at the Subadviser's
cost.

         5. Reports. The Corporation, the Adviser and the Subadviser agree to
furnish to each other, if applicable, current prospectuses, statements of
additional information, proxy statements, reports of shareholders, certified
copies of their financial statements, and such other information with regard
to their affairs and that of the Corporation as each may reasonably request.

         6. Status of the Subadviser. The services of the Subadviser to the
Adviser and the Corporation are not be deemed exclusive, and the Subadviser
shall be free to render similar services to others so long as its services to
the Corporation are not impaired thereby. The Subadviser shall be deemed to be
an independent contractor and shall, unless otherwise expressly provided or
authorized, have no authority to act for or represent the Corporation in any
way or otherwise be deemed an agent of the Corporation.

         7. Certain Records. The Subadviser hereby undertakes and agrees to
maintain, in the form and for the period required by Rule 31a-2 under the Act,
all records relating to the investments of the Portfolio that are required to
be maintained by the Corporation pursuant to the requirements

                                      -3-

<PAGE>

of Rule 31a-1 of the Act. Any records required to be maintained and preserved
pursuant to the provisions of Rule 31a-1 and Rule 31a-2 promulgated under the
Act which are prepared or maintained by the Subadviser on behalf of the
Corporation are the property of the Corporation and will be surrendered
promptly to the Corporation or the Adviser on request.

                  The Subadviser agrees that all accounts, books and other
records maintained and preserved by it as required hereby shall be subject at
any time, and from time to time, to such reasonable periodic, special and
other examinations by the Securities and Exchange Commission, the
Corporation's auditors, the Corporation or any representative of the
Corporation, the Adviser, or any governmental agency or other instrumentality
having regulatory authority over the Corporation.

         8. Reference to the Subadviser. Neither the Corporation nor the
Adviser or any affiliate or agent thereof shall make reference to or use the
name of the Subadviser or any of its affiliates in any advertising or
promotional materials without the prior approval of the Subadviser, which
approval shall not be unreasonably withheld.

         9. Liability of the Subadviser. (a) In the absence of willful
misfeasance, bad faith, gross negligence or reckless disregard of obligations
or duties ("disabling conduct") hereunder on the part of the Subadviser (and
its officers, directors, agents, employees, controlling persons, shareholders
and any other person or entity affiliated with the Subadviser), the Subadviser
shall not be subject to liability to the Corporation or to any shareholder of
the Corporation for any act or omission in the course of, or connected with,
rendering services hereunder, including without limitation, any error of
judgment or mistake of law or for any loss suffered by any of them in
connection with the matters to which this Agreement relates, except to the
extent specified in Section 36(b) of the Act concerning loss resulting from a
breach of fiduciary duty with respect to the receipt of compensation for
services. Except for such disabling conduct, the Adviser shall indemnify the
Subadviser (and its officers, directors, partners, agents, employees,
controlling persons, shareholders and any other person or entity affiliated
with the Subadviser) (collectively, the "Indemnified Parties") from any
liability arising from the Subadviser's conduct under this Agreement.

                  (b) The Subadviser agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the
Adviser and its affiliates and each of its directors and officers and each
person, if any, who controls the Adviser within the meaning of Section 15 of
the 1933 Act against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities or
litigation (including legal and other expenses), to which the Adviser or its
affiliates or such directors, officers or controlling person may become
subject under the 1933 Act, under other statutes, at common law or otherwise,
which may be based upon (i) any wrongful act or breach of this Agreement by
the Subadviser, or (ii) any failure by the Subadviser to comply with the
representations and warranties set forth in Section 1 of this Agreement;
provided, however, that in no case is the Subadviser's indemnity in favor of
any person deemed to protect such other persons against any liability to which
such person would otherwise be subject by reasons of willful misfeasance, bad
faith, or gross negligence in the performance of his, her or its duties or by
reason of his, her or its reckless disregard of obligation and duties under
this Agreement.

                  (c) The Subadviser shall not be liable to the Adviser for
(i) any acts of the Adviser or any other subadviser to the Portfolio with
respect to the portion of the assets of a Portfolio not managed by Subadviser
and (ii) acts of the Subadviser which result from acts of the Adviser,
including, but not limited to, a failure of the Adviser to provide accurate
and current information with respect to any records maintained by Adviser or
any other subadviser to a Portfolio, which records

                                      -4-

<PAGE>

are not also maintained by or otherwise available to the Subadviser upon
reasonable request. The Adviser agrees that the Subadviser shall manage the
portion of the assets of a Portfolio allocated to it as if it was a separate
operating Portfolio and shall comply with subsections (a) and (b) of Section 1
of this Subadvisory Agreement (including, but not limited to, the investment
objectives, policies and restrictions applicable to a Portfolio and
qualifications of a Portfolio as a regulated investment company under the
Code) with respect to the portion of assets of a Portfolio allocated to the
Subadviser. The Adviser shall indemnify the Indemnified Parties from any
liability arising from the conduct of the Adviser and any other subadviser
with respect to the portion of a Portfolio's assets not allocated to the
Subadviser.

         10. Permissible Interests. Directors and agents of the Corporation
are or may be interested in the Subadviser (or any successor thereof) as
directors, partners, officers or shareholders, or otherwise; directors,
partners, officers, agents and shareholders of the Subadviser are or may be
interested in the Corporation as Directors, or otherwise; and the Subadviser
(or any successor) is or may be interested in the Corporation in some manner.

         11. Term of the Agreement. This Agreement shall continue in full
force and effect with respect to each Portfolio until two years from the date
hereof, and from year to year thereafter so long as such continuance is
specifically approved at least annually (i) by the vote of a majority of those
Directors of the Corporation who are not parties to this Agreement or
interested persons of any such party, cast in person at a meeting called for
the purpose of voting on such approval, and (ii) by the Directors of the
Corporation or by vote of a majority of the outstanding voting securities of
the Portfolio voting separately from any other series of the Corporation.

                  With respect to each Portfolio, this Agreement may be
terminated at any time, without payment of a penalty by the Portfolio or the
Corporation, by vote of a majority of the Directors, or by vote of a majority
of the outstanding voting securities (as defined in the Act) of the Portfolio,
voting separately from any other series of the Corporation, or by the Adviser,
on not less than 30 nor more than 60 days' written notice to the Subadviser.
With respect to each Portfolio, this Agreement may be terminated by the
Subadviser at any time, without the payment of any penalty, on 90 days'
written notice to the Adviser and the Corporation; provided, however, that
this Agreement may not be terminated by the Subadviser unless another
subadvisory agreement has been approved by the Corporation in accordance with
the Act, or after six months' written notice, whichever is earlier. The
termination of this Agreement with respect to any Portfolio or the addition of
any Portfolio to Schedule A hereto (in the manner required by the Act) shall
not affect the continued effectiveness of this Agreement with respect to each
other Portfolio subject hereto. This Agreement shall automatically terminate
in the event of its assignment (as defined by the Act).

                  This Agreement will also terminate in the event that the
Advisory Agreement by and between the Corporation and the Adviser is
terminated.

         12. Severability. If any provision of this Agreement shall be held or
made invalid by a court decision, statute, rule or otherwise, the remainder of
this Agreement shall not be affected thereby.

         13. Amendments. This Agreement may be amended by mutual consent in
writing, but the consent of the Corporation must be obtained in conformity
with the requirements of the Act.

                                                       -5-

         14. Governing Law. This Agreement shall be construed in accordance
with the laws of the State of New York and the applicable provisions of the
Act. To the extent the applicable laws of the State of New York, or any of the
provisions herein, conflict with the applicable provisions of the Act, the
latter shall control.

         15. Separate Series. Pursuant to the provisions of the Articles of
Incorporation and the General Laws of the State of Maryland, each Portfolio is
a separate series of the Corporation, and all debts, liabilities, obligations
and expenses of a particular Portfolio shall be enforceable only against the
assets of that Portfolio and not against the assets of any other Portfolio or
of the Corporation as a whole.

         16. Notices. All notices shall be in writing and deemed properly
given when delivered or mailed by United States certified or registered mail,
return receipt requested, postage prepaid, addressed as follows:

                           STYLE SELECT SERIES, INC.

                          PLAN PURSUANT TO RULE 18F-3

         Style Select Series, Inc. (the "Corporation") hereby adopts this plan
pursuant to Rule 18f-3 under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended
(the "1940 Act"), setting forth the separate arrangement and expense
allocation of each class of shares. Any material amendment to this plan is
subject to prior approval of the Board of Directors, including a majority of
the disinterested Directors.

                             CLASS CHARACTERISTICS


CLASS A SHARES:            Class A shares are subject to an initial sales
                           charge,  a  distribution  fee pursuant to Rule 12b-1
                           under the 1940 Act ("Rule 12b-1 fee")  payable at
                           the annual rate of 0.10% of the average daily net
                           assets of the class, and an account  maintenance fee
                           under the Rule 12b-1 Plan  payable at the annual
                           rate of up to 0.25% of the average  daily net assets
                           of the class.  The initial  sales charge is waived
                           or reduced for certain eligible  investors.  In
                           certain cases, as disclosed in the Prospectus  and
                           the  Statement  of  Additional  Information  from
                           time to time, Class A shares may be subject to a
                           contingent  deferred  sales charge  ("CDSC") imposed
                           at the time of  redemption  if the initial sales
                           charge with respect to such shares was waived.

CLASS B SHARES:            Class B shares  are not  subject to an initial 
                           sales  charge but are  subject to a CDSC which will
                           be imposed on certain  redemptions,  a Rule 12b-1
                           fee payable at the annual  rate of up to 0.75% of
                           the average  daily net assets of the class,  and an
                           account  maintenance  fee under the Rule  12b-1 
                           Plan  payable at the annual rate of up to 0.25% of
                           the average  daily net assets of the class.  The
                           CDSC is waived for certain eligible  investors. 
                           Class B shares  automatically  convert to Class A
                           shares on the first business day of the month 
                           following the seventh anniversary of the issuance of
                           such Class B shares.

CLASS C SHARES:            Class C shares  are not  subject to an initial 
                           sales  charge but are  subject to a CDSC which will
                           be imposed on certain  redemptions,  a Rule 12b-1
                           fee payable at the annual rate of up to 0.75% of the
                           average  annual net assets of the class,  and an
                           account  maintenance  fee under the Rule  12b-1 
                           Plan  payable at the annual rate of up to 0.25% of
                           the average  daily net assets of the class.  The
                           CDSC is waived for certain eligible investors.

<PAGE>

CLASS II SHARES:           Class II shares  are  subject  to an  initial  sales 
                           charge  and a CDSC  which  will be imposed on
                           certain redemptions,  a Rule 12b-1 fee payable at
                           the annual rate of up to 0.75% of the  average 
                           annual  net  assets of the  class,  and an account
                           maintenance  fee under the Rule 12b-1 Plan  payable
                           at the annual rate of up to 0.25% of the  average 
                           daily net  assets of the  class.  The CDSC is waived
                           for certain eligible investors.

CLASS Z SHARES:            Class Z shares are not  subject  to either an 
                           initial  or CDSC nor are they  subject to any Rule
                           12b-1 fee.


                        INCOME AND EXPENSE ALLOCATIONS

         Income, any realized and unrealized capital gains and losses, and
         expenses not allocated to a particular class, will be allocated to
         each class on the basis of the total value of each class of shares in
         relation to the total value of each class of shares of each series of
         the Corporation (each a "Portfolio" and collectively, the
         "Portfolios").

                          DIVIDENDS AND DISTRIBUTIONS

         Dividends and other distributions paid by each Portfolio to each
         class of shares, to the extent paid, will be paid on the same day and
         at the same time, and will be determined in the same manner and will
         be in the same amount, except that the amount of the dividends and
         other distributions declared and paid by a particular class may be
         different from that paid by another class because of Rule 12b-1 fees
         and other expenses borne exclusively by that class.

                              EXCHANGE PRIVILEGE

         Each class of shares is generally exchangeable for the same class of
         shares of any other Portfolio or other SunAmerica Mutual Fund
         (subject to certain minimum investment requirements) at the relative
         net asset value per share. Class II shares of a Portfolio may be
         exchanged for Class C shares of any other Portfolio or other
         SunAmerica Mutual Fund which does not also offer Class II shares.

                              CONVERSION FEATURES

         Class B shares will convert automatically to Class A shares on the
         first business day of the month following the seventh anniversary of
         the issuance of such Class B shares. Conversions will be effected at
         the relative net asset values of Class B and Class A shares, without
         the imposition of any sales load, fee or charge. Class C, Class II
         and Class Z shares will have no conversion rights.

                                      2


<PAGE>


                                    GENERAL

A.       Each class of shares shall have exclusive voting rights on any matter
         submitted to shareholders that relates solely to its arrangement and
         shall have separate voting rights on any matter submitted to
         shareholders in which the interests of one class differ from the
         interests of any other class.

B.       On an ongoing basis, the Directors, pursuant to their fiduciary
         responsibilities under the 1940 Act and otherwise, will monitor the
         Corporation for the existence of any material conflicts among the
         interests of its several classes. The Directors, including a majority
         of the disinterested Directors, shall take such action as is
         reasonably necessary to eliminate any such conflicts that may
         develop. SunAmerica Asset Management Corp., the Corporation's
         investment manager and adviser, will be responsible for reporting any
         potential or existing conflicts to the Directors.

C.       For purposes of expressing an opinion on the financial statements of
         the Corporation, the methodology and procedures for calculating the
         net asset value and dividends/distributions of the classes and the
         proper allocation of income and expenses among such classes will be
         examined annually by the Corporation's independent auditors who, in
         performing such examination, shall consider the factors set forth in
         the relevant auditing standards adopted, from time to time, by the
         American Institute of Certified Public Accountants and Financial
         Accounting Standards Board.
