Statement of Additional Information dated May 1, 2000, that relates to the
Fund's investment adviser, investment subadviser and distributor. This
Supplement should be read in conjunction with those portions of the Prospectus

Investment Advisory, Subadvisory and Distribution Agreements
Shareholders of the Fund approved a new two-year investment advisory
agreement between CAM (operating under its new name of American General Asset
Management Corp. ("AGAM")) and the Fund at a special meeting of shareholders on
June 1, 2000 (the "June Shareholder Meeting"). Shareholders also approved a new
two-year subadvisory agreement with CIMCO at the June Shareholder Meeting.
CFD, under its new name of American General Funds Distributors, Inc.
("AGFD"), has continued to serve as the distributor of the Fund's shares since
the Acquisition. The Board of Directors of the Fund ("the Board") on February
27, 2000 approved a new distribution agreement substantially similar to the
Fund's previous distribution agreement with CFD (shareholder approval of the
new distribution agreement is not required under the Investment Company Act).
Board of Directors
Bradford K. Gallagher, Chairman of the Board and President of CAM, resigned
from the Board upon consummation of the Acquisition. Alice T. Kane, President
of American General Fund Group, was appointed by the Board as a Director of the
Fund and Chairman of the Board. The Board also nominated six additional
Directors to be proposed for election, along with Ms. Kane, at the June
Shareholder Meeting. Two of these nominees replaced Directors Arthur S. Loring
and William F. Achtmeyer, who resigned upon their successors' election.
Shareholders elected Judith L. Craven, William F. Devin, Ben H. Love, Joseph T.
Grause, Jr., Timothy J. Ebner, Gustavo E. Gonzales, Jr., John E. Maupin, Jr.
and Kenneth J. Lavery as Directors at the June Shareholder Meeting.
Fee Waiver
Effective March 7, 2000, the Fund's investment adviser voluntarily agreed to
reimburse the Fund's expenses to the extent necessary so that the total
annualized fund expenses do not exceed 1.25% of average daily gross assets.
This voluntary waiver will continue until further notice. In addition, CIMCO
has agreed to waive a portion of its subadvisory fee in connection with the
Acquisition described on page 16 of the Prospectus.
Telephone Transactions
The Section entitled "Telephone Transactions" on page 28 of the Prospectus
is deleted in its entirety and replaced by the following: Shareholders are not
permitted to request exchanges and/or repurchases by telephone.
