The Fund's Expenses
- -----------------------------------------------------------------------
- ---------

   
      The following expense table lists the costs and expenses an 
investor will
incur either directly or indirectly as a shareholder of Class Z shares 
of the
Fund, based on the Fund's estimated operating expenses.

- -----------------------------------------------------------------------

=======================================================================
=========

* Annual Fund Operating Expenses have been estimated based on expenses 
the Fund
  expects to incur during its fiscal year ending December 31. 1998.

      The nature of the services for which the Fund pays management 
fees is
described under "Management of the Company and the Fund." "Other 
expenses" in
the above table include fees for shareholder services, custodial fees, 
legal and
accounting fees, printing costs and registration fees.

      EXAMPLE

      The following example is intended to assist an investor in 
understanding
the various costs that an investor in the Fund will bear directly or 
indirectly.
The example assumes payment by the Fund of operating expenses at the 
levels set
forth in the table above. See "Purchase, Exchange and Redemption of 
Shares" and
"Management of the Company and the Fund."

<C>      <C>
An investor would pay the following expenses
on a $1,000 investment in Class Z shares of the
Fund, assuming (1) 5.00% annual return and
(2) redemption at the end of each time period:           $7         $21         
$37      $83
=======================================================================
=====================
</TABLE>

      The example also provides a means for the investor to compare 
expense
levels of funds with different fee structures over varying investment 
periods.
To facilitate such comparison, all funds are required to utilize a 
5.00% annual
return assumption. However, the Fund's actual return will vary and may 
be
greater or less than 5.00%. This example should not be considered a
representation of past or future expenses and actual expenses may be 
greater or
less than those shown.

Investment Objective and Management Policies
- -----------------------------------------------------------------------
- ---------

   
      INVESTMENT OBJECTIVE
    

      The investment objective of the Fund is high current return. The 
Fund's
investment objective may not be changed without the "vote of a majority 
of the
outstanding voting securities" as defined in the Investment Company Act 
of 1940,
as amended (the "1940 Act"). There can be no assurance that the Fund 
will
achieve its investment objective.

      The Fund seeks to achieve its investment objective by investing 
primarily
in U.S. government securities. U.S. government securities are 
obligations of, or
are guaranteed by, the U.S. government, its agencies or 
instrumentalities. These
include bills, certificates of indebtedness, and notes and bonds issued 
by the
United States Treasury or by agencies or instrumentalities of the 
United States
government. Some United States government securities, such as Treasury 
bills and
bonds, are supported by the full faith and credit of the United States 
Treasury;
others are supported by the right of the issuer to borrow from the 
United States
Treasury; others, such as those of the Federal National Mortgage 
Association,
are supported by the discretionary authority of the United States 
government to
purchase the agency's obligations; still others, such as those of the 
Student
Loan Marketing Association and the Federal Home Loan Mortgage 
Corporation
("FHLMC"), are supported only by the credit of the instrumentality. 
Mortgage
participation certificates issued by the FHLMC generally represent 
ownership
interests in a pool of fixed-rate conventional mortgages. Timely 
payment of
principal and interest on these certificates is guaranteed solely by 
the issuer
of the certificates. Other investments of the Fund will include 
Government
National Mortgage Association Certificates ("GNMA Certificates") which 
are
mortgage-backed securities representing part ownership of a pool of 
mortgage
loans on which timely payment of interest and principal is guaranteed 
by the
full faith and credit of the United States government. While the United 
States
government guarantees the payment of principal and interest on GNMA
Certificates, the market value of the securities is not guaranteed and 
will
fluctuate. The Fund may write covered call options and secured put 
options and
purchase put options on U.S. government securities. The Fund also 
purchases and
sells interest rate futures contracts, and purchases and sells put and 
call
options on futures contracts, as a means of hedging against changes in 
interest
rates. The Fund may also invest in real estate investment trusts and 
purchase
the securities of companies with less than three years of continuous 
operation.

      The Fund may invest up to 5% of its net assets in U.S. government
securities for which the principal repayment at maturity, while paid in 
U.S.
dollars, is determined by reference to the exchange rate between the 
U.S. dollar
and the currency of one or more foreign countries ("Exchange Rate-
Related
Securities"). The interest payable on these securities is denominated 
in U.S.
dollars, is not subject to foreign currency risk and, in most cases, is 
paid at
rates higher than most

- -----------------------------------------------------------------------
- ---------
Investment Objective and Management Policies (continued)
- -----------------------------------------------------------------------
- ---------

other U.S. government securities in recognition of the foreign currency 
risk
component of Exchange Rate-Related Securities.

      The Fund may borrow money (up to 25% of its total assets) to 
increase its
investments, thereby leveraging its portfolio and exaggerating the 
effect on net
asset value of any increase or decrease in the market value of the 
Fund's
securities. See "Leverage through Borrowing." The Fund may enter into 
repurchase
agreements, reverse repurchase agreements and firm commitment 
agreements and
"short sales against the box" and may lend its portfolio securities. 
The total
of the Fund's direct borrowing and borrowings in connection with 
entering into
reverse repurchase agreements will not exceed 33 1/3% of the Fund's 
total
assets. Except when in a temporary defensive investment position, the 
Fund
intends to maintain at least 65% of its assets invested in U.S. 
government
securities (including futures contracts and options thereon and options 
relating
to U.S. government securities).

      The Fund's distributions may consist of interest income from U.S.
government securities, premiums from expired put and call options 
written by the
Fund, net gains from closing purchase and sale transactions in options, 
futures
contracts or related options, and net gains from sales of portfolio 
securities
pursuant to options or otherwise. The investments of the Fund involve 
certain
special risks set forth in the description of those techniques in this
Prospectus and in the SAI.

      The value of securities in which the Fund invests (and therefore 
the
Fund's net asset value per share) generally will vary inversely with 
changes in
interest rates and also will fluctuate in response to other factors.

      In making purchases of securities consistent with the above 
policies, the
Fund will be subject to the applicable restrictions referred to under
"Investment Restrictions" in the SAI.

      ADDITIONAL INVESTMENTS

      Repurchase Agreements. The Fund may enter into repurchase 
agreement
transactions on U.S. government securities with banks which are the 
issuers of
instruments acceptable for purchase by the Fund and with certain 
dealers on the
Federal Reserve Bank of New York's list of reporting dealers. Under the 
terms of
a typical repurchase agreement, the Fund would acquire an underlying 
debt
obligation for a relatively short period (usually not more than one 
week),
subject to an obligation of the seller to repurchase, and the Fund to 
resell,
the obligation at an agreed-upon price and time, thereby determining 
the yield
during the Fund's holding period. This arrangement results in a fixed 
rate of
return that is not subject to market fluctuations during the Fund's 
holding
period. The value of the underlying securities will be at least equal 
at all
times to the total amount of the repurchase obligation, including 
interest. The
Fund bears a risk of loss in the event

<PAGE>

- -----------------------------------------------------------------------

Investment Objective and Management Policies (continued)
- -----------------------------------------------------------------------
- ---------

   
that the other party to a repurchase agreement defaults on its 
obligations and
the Fund is delayed or prevented from exercising its rights to dispose 
of the
collateral securities, including the risk of a possible decline in the 
value of
the underlying securities during the period while the Fund seeks to 
assert its
rights to them, the risk of incurring expenses associated with 
asserting those
rights and the risk of losing all or part of the income from the 
agreement.
Mutual Management Corp. ("MMC" or the "Adviser"), acting under the 
supervision
of the Board of Directors, reviews on an ongoing basis the 
creditworthiness and
the value of the collateral of those banks and dealers with which the 
Fund
enters into repurchase agreements to evaluate potential risks.
    

      Reverse Repurchase Agreements. A reverse repurchase agreement 
involves the
sale of a money market instrument by the Fund and its agreement to 
repurchase
the instrument at a specified time and price. The Fund will maintain a
segregated account consisting of U.S. government securities or cash or 
cash
equivalents to cover its obligations under reverse repurchase 
agreements with
broker-dealers (but not banks). The Fund will invest the proceeds in 
other money
market instruments or repurchase agreements maturing not later than the
expiration of the reverse repurchase agreement. Under the 1940 Act, 
reverse
repurchase agreements may be considered borrowings by the seller; 
accordingly,
the Fund will limit its investments in reverse repurchase agreements 
and other
borrowings to no more than 33 1/3% of its total assets.

      Zero Coupon Securities. The Fund may also invest in zero coupon 
bonds. A
zero coupon bond pays no interest in cash to its holder during its 
life,
although interest is accrued during that period. Its value to an 
investor
consists of the difference between its face value at the time of 
maturity and
the price for which it was acquired, which is generally an amount 
significantly
less than its face value (sometimes referred to as a "deep discount" 
price).
Because such securities usually trade at a deep discount, they will be 
subject
to greater fluctuations of market value in response to changing 
interest rates
than debt obligations of comparable maturities which make periodic 
distributions
of interest. On the other hand, because there are no periodic interest 
payments
to be reinvested prior to maturity, zero coupon securities eliminate
reinvestment risk and lock in a rate of return to maturity.

      Dollar Roll Transactions. The fund may enter into "dollar rolls," 
in which
the Fund sells fixed income securities and simultaneously contracts to
repurchase substantially similar (same type, coupon and maturity) 
securities on
a specified future date. During this "roll" period, the Fund would 
forego
principal and interest paid on such securities. The Fund would be 
compensated by
the difference between the current sales price and the forward price 
for the
future purchase, as well as by the interest earned on the cash proceeds 
of the
initial sale. Since the Fund will receive interest on the securities in 
which it
invests the transaction proceeds, such transactions may involve 
leverage.
However, since the proceeds will be invested


6
<PAGE>

- -----------------------------------------------------------------------
- ---------
Investment Objective and Management Policies (continued)
- -----------------------------------------------------------------------
- ---------

only in U.S. Treasury obligations and since the Fund will enter into 
dollar roll
transactions only with dealers of sufficient creditworthiness in the 
judgement
of the Fund's investment adviser, such transactions do not present the 
risks to
the Fund that are associated with other types of leverage. Dollar roll
transactions are considered borrowings by the Fund and will be subject 
to the
Fund's overall borrowing limitation.

      Firm Commitment Agreements and When-Issued Purchases. Firm 
commitment
agreements and when-issued purchases call for the purchase of 
securities at an
agreed-upon price on a specified future date, and would be used, for 
example,
when a decline in the yield of securities of a given issuer is 
anticipated. The
Fund as purchaser assumes the risk of any decline in value of the 
security
beginning on the date of the agreement or purchase. The Fund will not 
use such
transactions for leveraging purposes, and accordingly will segregate 
U.S.
government securities, cash or cash equivalents in an amount sufficient 
to meet
its purchase obligations under the agreement.

   
      Loans of Portfolio Securities. Consistent with applicable 
regulatory
requirements, the Fund is authorized to lend securities it holds to 
brokers,
dealers and other financial organizations provided: (a) the loan is 
secured
continuously by collateral consisting of U.S. government securities, 
cash or
cash equivalents maintained on a daily marked-to-market basis in an 
amount at
least equal to the current market value of the securities loaned; (b) 
the Fund
may at any time call the loan and obtain the return of the securities 
loaned;
(c) the Fund will receive any interest or dividends paid on the loaned
securities. The risks in lending portfolio securities, as with other 
extensions
of secured credit, consists of possible delays in receiving additional
collateral or in the recovery of the securities or possible loss of 
rights in
the collateral should the borrower fail financially. Loans will be made 
to firms
deemed by MMC to be in good standing and will not be made unless, in 
the
judgement of MMC, the consideration to be earned from such loans would 
justify
the risk.

      Short Sales. The Fund may sell securities short "against the 
box." While a
short sale is the sale of a security the Fund does not own, it is 
"against the
box" if at all times when the short position is open, the Fund owns an 
equal
amount of the securities or securities convertible into, or 
exchangeable without
further consideration for, securities of the same issue as the 
securities sold
short.
    

      Options Activities. The Fund may write (i.e., sell) call options 
("calls")
if the calls are "covered" throughout the life of the option. A call is
"covered" if the Fund owns the optioned securities, if the Fund 
maintains in a
segregated account with the Company's custodian cash, cash equivalents 
or U.S.
government securities with a value sufficient to meet its obligations 
under the
call, or if the Fund owns an offsetting call option. When the Fund 
writes a
call, it receives a premium and gives the purchaser the right to buy 
the
underlying security at any time during the call

period (usually not more than nine months in the case of common stock 
or fifteen
months in the case of U.S. government securities) at a fixed exercise 
price
regardless of market price changes during the call period. If the call 
is
exercised, the Fund foregoes any gain from an increase in the market 
price of
the underlying security over the exercise price. The Fund may purchase 
call
options on securities. However, the Fund may only purchase a call on 
securities
to effect a "closing purchase transaction," which is the purchase of a 
call
covering the same underlying security and having the same exercise 
price and
expiration date as a call previously written by the Fund on which it 
wishes to
terminate its obligation.

      The Fund also may write and purchase put options ("puts"). When 
the Fund
writes a put, it receives a premium and gives the purchaser of the put 
the right
to sell the underlying security to the Fund at the exercise price at 
any time
during the option period. When the Fund purchases a put, it pays a 
premium in
return for the right to sell the underlying security at the exercise 
price at
any time during the option period. If any put is not exercised or sold, 
it will
become worthless on its expiration date. The Fund will not purchase 
puts on
securities if more than 10% of its net assets would be invested in 
premiums on
puts.

      The Fund may write puts on securities only if they are "secured." 
A put is
"secured" if the Fund maintains cash, cash equivalents or U.S. 
government
securities with a value equal to the exercise price in a segregated 
account or
holds a put on the same underlying security at an equal or greater 
exercise
price. The aggregate value of the obligations underlying puts written 
by the
Fund will not exceed 50% of its net assets. The Fund also writes 
"straddles,"
which are combinations of secured puts and covered calls on the same 
underlying
security.

      The Fund will realize a gain (or loss) on a closing purchase 
transaction
with respect to a call or put previously written by the Fund if the 
premium,
plus commission costs, paid to purchase the call or put is less (or 
greater)
than the premium, less commission costs, received on the sale of the 
call or
put. A gain also will be realized if a call or put which the Fund has 
written
lapses unexercised, because the Fund would retain the premium. See 
"Dividends,
Distributions and Taxes."

      There can be no assurance that a liquid secondary market will 
exist at a
given time for any particular option. In this regard, it is difficult 
to predict
to what extent liquid markets will develop or continue. See below for a
discussion of the purchase by the Fund of options on futures contracts. 
See the
Statement of Additional Information for further discussion of risks 
involved in
options trading, and particular risks applicable to options trading on 
U.S.
government securities, including risks involved in options trading on 
GNMA
Certificates.

      Swap Agreements. As one way of managing its exposure to different 
types of
investments, the Fund may enter into interest rate swaps, currency 
swaps, and
other


8
<PAGE>

- -----------------------------------------------------------------------
- ---------
Investment Objective and Management Policies (continued)
- -----------------------------------------------------------------------
- ---------

types of swap agreements such as caps, collars, and floors. In a 
typical
interest rate swap, one party agrees to make regular payments equal to 
a
floating interest rate times a "notional principal amount," in return 
for
payments equal to a fixed rate times the same amount for a specified 
period of
time. If a swap agreement provides for payments in different 
currencies, the
parties might agree to exchange the notional principal amount as well. 
Swaps may
also depend on other prices or rates, such as the value of an index or 
mortgage
prepayment rates.

      Swap agreements are sophisticated hedging instruments that 
typically
involve a small investment of cash relative to the magnitude of risks 
assumed.
As a result, swaps can be highly volatile and may have a considerable 
impact on
the Fund's performance. Swap agreements are subject to risks related to 
the
counterparty's ability to perform, and may decline in value if the
counterparty's creditworthiness deteriorates. The Fund may also suffer 
losses if
it is unable to terminate outstanding swap agreements or reduce its 
exposure
through offsetting transactions.

      Interest Rate Futures Contracts. The Fund may purchase and sell 
interest
rate futures contracts ("futures contracts") as a hedge against changes 
in
interest rates. A futures contract is an agreement between two parties 
to buy
and sell a security for a set price on a future date. Futures contracts 
are
traded on designated "contracts markets" which, through their clearing
corporations, guarantee performance of the contracts. Currently, there 
are
futures contracts based on securities such as long-term Treasury bonds, 
Treasury
notes, GNMA Certificates and three-month Treasury bills.

      Generally, if market interest rates increase, the value of 
outstanding
debt securities declines (and vice versa). Entering into a futures 
contract for
the sale of securities has an effect similar to the actual sale of 
securities,
although the sale of the futures contract might be accomplished more 
easily and
quickly. For example, if the Fund holds long-term U.S. government 
securities and
MMC anticipates a rise in long-term interest rates, it could, in lieu 
of
disposing of its portfolio securities, enter into futures contracts for 
the sale
of similar long-term securities. If interest rates increased and the 
value of
the Fund's securities declined, the value of the Fund's futures 
contracts would
increase, thereby protecting the Fund by preventing the net asset value 
from
declining as much as it otherwise would have. Similarly, entering into 
futures
contracts for the purchase of securities has an effect similar to 
actual
purchase of the underlying securities, but permits the continued 
holding of
securities other than the underlying securities. For example, if MMC 
expects
long-term interest rates to decline, the Fund might enter into futures 
contracts
for the purchase of long-term securities, so that it could gain rapid 
market
exposure that may offset anticipated increases in the cost of 
securities it
intends to purchase, while continuing to hold higher-yielding short-
term
securities or waiting for the long-term market to stabilize.

- -----------------------------------------------------------------------
- ---------
Investment Objective and Management Policies (continued)
- -----------------------------------------------------------------------
- ---------

      The Fund also may purchase and sell listed put and call options 
on futures
contracts. An option on a futures contract gives the purchaser the 
right, in
return for the premium paid, to assume a position in a futures contract 
(a long
position if the option is a call and a short position if the option is 
a put),
at a specified exercise price at any time during the option period. 
When an
option on a futures contract is exercised, delivery of the futures 
position is
accompanied by cash representing the difference between the current 
market price
of the futures contract and the exercise price of the option. The Fund 
may
purchase put options on interest rate futures contracts in lieu of, and 
for the
same purpose as, the sale of a futures contract. It also may purchase 
such put
options in order to hedge a long position in the underlying futures 
contract in
the same manner as it purchases "protective puts" on securities. The 
purchase of
call options on interest rate futures contracts is intended to serve 
the same
purpose as the actual purchase of the futures contract, and the Fund 
will set
aside cash or cash equivalents sufficient to purchase the amount of 
portfolio
securities represented by the underlying futures contracts. See 
"Options
Activities" and "Dividends, Distributions and Taxes."

      The Fund may not purchase futures contracts or related options 
if,
immediately thereafter, more than 30% of the Fund's total assets would 
be so
invested. In purchasing and selling futures contracts and related 
options, the
Fund will comply with rules and interpretations of the Commodity 
Futures Trading
Commission ("CFTC"), under which the Company is excluded from 
regulation as a
"commodity pool." CFTC regulations permit use of commodity futures and 
options
for bona fide hedging purposes without limitation on the amount of 
assets
committed to margin and option premiums.

      The Fund will not engage in transactions involving futures 
contracts or
related options for speculation but only as a hedge against changes in 
the
market values of debt securities held, or intended to be purchased, by 
the Fund
and where the transactions are appropriate to reduction of the Fund's 
risks. The
Fund's futures transactions will be entered into for traditional 
hedging
purposes -- that is, futures contracts will be sold (or related put 
options
purchased) to protect against a decline in the price of securities that 
the Fund
owns, or futures contracts (or related call options) will be purchased 
to
protect the Fund against an increase in the price of securities it is 
committed
to purchase.

      There is no assurance that the Fund will be able to close out its 
futures
positions at any time, in which case it would be required to maintain 
the margin
deposits on the contract. There can be no assurance that hedging 
transactions
will be successful, as there may be an imperfect correlation (or no 
correlation)
between movements in the prices of the futures contracts and of the 
debt
securities being hedged, or price distortions due to market conditions 
in the
futures markets. Where futures contracts are purchased to hedge against 
an
increase in the price of long-term securities, but the long-term market 
declines
and the Fund does not invest in long-term securities,


10
<PAGE>

- -----------------------------------------------------------------------
- ---------
Investment Objective and Management Policies (continued)
- -----------------------------------------------------------------------
- ---------

the Fund would realize a loss on the futures contracts, which would not 
be
offset by a reduction in the price of securities purchased. Where 
futures
contracts are sold to hedge against a decline in the price of the 
Fund's
long-term securities but the long-term market advances, the Fund would 
lose part
or all of the benefit of the advance due to offsetting losses in its 
futures
positions.

      Foreign Currency Risks. The Fund has the ability to invest up to 
5% of its
net assets in U.S. government securities where the principal repayment 
amount
may be increased or decreased due to fluctuations of foreign currency 
exchange
rates.

      Leverage through Borrowing. The Fund may borrow up to 25% of the 
value of
its net assets on an unsecured basis from banks to increase its 
holdings of
portfolio securities or to acquire securities to be placed in a 
segregated
account with the custodian for various purposes (e.g. to secure puts 
written by
the Fund). The Fund is required to maintain continuous asset coverage 
of 300%
with respect to such borrowings, and to sell (within three days) 
sufficient
portfolio holdings to restore such coverage, if it should decline to 
less than
300% due to market fluctuations or otherwise, even if it is 
disadvantageous from
an investment standpoint. Leveraging will exaggerate the effect of any 
increase
or decrease in the value of portfolio securities on the Fund's net 
asset value,
and money borrowed will be subject to interest costs (which may include
commitment fees and/or the cost of maintaining minimum average 
balances) which
may or may not exceed the interest and option premiums received from 
the
securities purchased with borrowed funds.

      American Depositary Receipts. The Fund may purchase foreign 
securities and
American Depositary Receipts ("ADRs"), which are dollar-denominated 
receipts
issued generally by domestic banks and representing the deposit with 
the bank of
a security of a foreign issuer. ADRs are publicly traded on exchanges 
or
over-the-counter in the United States.

   
      Year 2000. The investment management services provided to the 
Fund by MMC
and the services provided to shareholders by Salomon Smith Barney 
depend on the
smooth functioning of their computer systems. Many
computer software systems in use today cannot recognize the year 2000, 
but
revert to 1900 or some other date, due to the manner in which dates 
were encoded
and calculated. That failure could have a negative impact on the Fund's
operations, including the handling of securities trades, pricing and 
account
services. MMC and Salomon Smith Barney have advised the Fund that they 
have
been
reviewing all of their computer systems and actively working on 
necessary
changes to their systems to prepare for the year 2000 and expect that 
their
systems will be compliant before that date. In addition, MMC has been 
advised by
the Fund's custodian, transfer agent and accounting service agent that 
they are
also in the process of modifying their systems with the same goal. 
There can,
however, be no assurance that MMC, Salomon Smith Barney or any other
service provider
will be successful, or that interaction with other non-complying 
computer
systems will not impair Fund services at that time.
    


                                                                              
11

- -----------------------------------------------------------------------
- ---------

   
      In addition, the ability of issuers to make timely payments of 
interest
and principal or to continue their operations or services may be 
impaired by the
inadequate preparation of their computer systems for the year 2000. 
This may
adversely affect the market values of securities of specific issuers or 
of
securities generally if the inadequacy of preparation is perceived as 
widespread
or as affecting trading markets.
    

      PORTFOLIO TRANSACTIONS AND TURNOVER

   
      MMC arranges for the purchase and sale of the Fund's securities 
and
selects brokers and dealers (including Salomon Smith Barney) which, in 
its best
judgment, provide prompt and reliable execution at favorable prices and
reasonable commission rates. MMC may select brokers and dealers which 
provide it
with research services and may cause the Fund to pay such brokers and 
dealers
commissions which exceed those other brokers and dealers may have 
charged, if it
views the commissions as reasonable in relation to the value of the 
brokerage
and/or research services.
    

      The Fund may experience high portfolio turnover as a result of 
its
investment strategies. Short-term gains realized from portfolio 
transactions are
taxable to shareholders as ordinary income. While the Fund does not 
intend to
engage in short-term trading, it will not consider portfolio turnover 
rate a
limiting factor in making investment decisions consistent with its 
respective
objectives and policies.

   
      For reporting purposes, the Fund's portfolio turnover rate is 
calculated
by dividing the lesser of purchases or sales of portfolio securities 
for the
fiscal year by the monthly average of the value of the Fund's 
securities, with
money market instruments with less than one year to maturity excluded. 
A 100%
portfolio turnover rate would occur, for example, if all included 
securities
were replaced once during the year.

Valuation of Shares
- -----------------------------------------------------------------------
- ---------

   
      The net asset value of Class Z shares is determined as of the 
close of
regular trading on the New York Stock Exchange ("NYSE") on each day 
that the
NYSE is open, by dividing the value of the Fund's net assets 
attributable to
Class Z shares by the total number of Class Z shares outstanding. The 
per share
net asset value of the Class Z shares may be higher than those of other 
Classes
because of the lower expenses attributable to Class Z shares.
    

      Securities listed on an exchange are valued on the basis of the 
last sale
prior to the time the valuation is made. If there has been no sale 
since the
immediately previous valuation, then the current bid price is used. 
Quotations
are taken from the exchange where the security is primarily traded. 
United
States over-the-counter securities are valued on the basis of the bid 
price at
the close of business on each

day. Securities for which market quotations are not readily available 
are valued
at fair value as determined in good faith by or under the direction of 
the Board
of Directors. Notwithstanding the above, bonds and other fixed-income 
securities
are valued by using market quotations and may be valued on the basis of 
prices
provided by a pricing service approved by the Board of Directors.

      When the Fund writes a put or call option, it records the premium 
received
as an asset and equivalent liability, and thereafter adjusts the 
liability to
the market value of the option determined in accordance with the 
preceding
paragraph. The premium paid for an option purchased by the Fund is 
recorded as
an asset and subsequently adjusted to market value.

Dividends, Distributions and Taxes
- -----------------------------------------------------------------------
- ---------

      DIVIDENDS AND DISTRIBUTIONS

   
      The Fund's policy is to declare and pay monthly dividends from 
its net
investment income. Dividends from net realized capital gains, if any, 
will be
distributed annually. The Fund may also pay additional dividends 
shortly before
December 31 from certain amounts of undistributed ordinary income and 
capital
gains realized, in order to avoid a Federal excise tax liability. 
Unless a
shareholder is eligible for qualified distributions, and has instructed 
that
dividends and capital gain distributions be paid in cash and credited 
to their
account, any dividend or capital gain distribution paid will 
automatically
reinvest in additional shares of Class Z at net asset value, with no 
additional
sales charge or CDSC.

      TAXES

      The following is a summary of the material federal tax 
considerations
affecting the Fund and Fund shareholders. Qualified plan participants 
should
consult their plan document or tax advisors about the tax consequences 
of
participating in a Qualified Plan. Please refer to the SAI for further
discussion. In addition to the considerations described below and in 
the SAI,
there may be other federal, state, local, and/or foreign tax 
applications to
consider.

      The Fund will be treated as a separate taxpayer with the result 
that, for
Federal income tax purposes, the qualification of the Fund as a 
regulated
investment company under subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code (the 
"Code")
will be determined without regard to the qualification of the other 
funds of the
Company. The Fund has qualified and intends to continue to qualify each 
year
as a
regulated investment company. In each taxable year that the Fund so 
qualifies
and meets certain distribution requirements, the Fund will not be 
subject to
Federal income tax on its net investment income and net capital gains 
that it
distributes to its shareholders. The Fund expects to distribute all of 
such
income and gains each year.

Dividends, Distributions and Taxes (continued)
- -----------------------------------------------------------------------
- ---------

   
      Provided that a Qualified Plan has not borrowed to finance its 
investment
in the Fund, it will not be taxable on the receipt of dividends and
distributions from the Fund.

      Dividends and interest received by the Fund from investing in 
foreign
securities may give rise to withholding and other taxes imposed by 
foreign
countries. Tax conventions between certain countries and the United 
States may
reduce or eliminate such taxes. The Fund's foreign tax payments will 
reduce the
amount of its dividends and distributions.

      The Fund is required to withhold ("backup withholding") 31% of 
all taxable
dividends, capital gain distributions, and the proceeds of any 
redemption,
regardless of whether gain or loss is realized upon the redemption, for
shareholders who do not provide the Fund with a correct taxpayer 
identification
number (social security or employer identification number). Withholding 
from
taxable dividends and capital gain distributions also is required for
shareholders who otherwise are subject to backup withholding. Any tax 
withheld
as a result of backup withholding does not constitute an additional 
tax, and may
be claimed as a credit on the shareholders' federal income tax return.

- -----------------------------------------------------------------------

Purchase, Exchange and Redemption of Shares
- -----------------------------------------------------------------------
- ---------

      Purchase of the Fund's Class Z shares must be made in accordance 
with the
terms of a Qualified Plan. Purchases are effected at the net asset 
value next
determined after a purchase order is received by Salomon Smith Barney 
(the
"trade date"). Payment is due to Salomon Smith Barney on the third 
business day
(the "settlement date") after the trade date. Investors who make 
payment prior
to the settlement date may designate a temporary investment (such as a 
money
market fund of the Smith Barney Mutual Funds) for such payment until 
settlement
date. The Fund reserves the right to reject any purchase order and to 
suspend
the offering of shares for a period of time. There are no minimum 
investment
requirements for Class Z shares; however, the Fund reserves the right 
to vary
this policy at any time.

      Purchase orders received by the Fund or Salomon Smith Barney 
prior to the
close of regular trading on the NYSE, currently 4:00 p.m., Eastern 
time, on any
day that the Fund calculates its net asset value, are priced according 
to the
net asset value determined on that day. See "Valuation of Shares."

      Qualified Plans may redeem their shares on any day the Fund 
calculates its
net asset value. See "Valuation of Shares." Redemption requests 
received in
proper form prior to the close of regular trading on the NYSE are 
priced at the
net asset value per share determined on that day. Redemption requests 
received
after the close of regular trading on the NYSE are priced at the net 
asset value
as next deter-

should
consult the terms of their respective plans for redemption provisions.

      Holders of Class Z shares should consult their Qualified Plans 
for
information about available exchange options.

      YIELD

   
      From time to time, the Fund advertises the 30 day "yield" of its 
Class Z
shares. The Fund's yield refers to the income generated by an 
investment in
those shares over the 30 day period identified in the advertisement and 
is
computed by dividing the net investment income per share earned by the 
Class
during the period by the maximum public offering price per share on the 
last day
of the period. This income is "annualized" by assuming the amount of 
income is
generated each month over a one year period and is compounded semi-
annually. The
annualized income is then shown as a percentage of the net asset value.
    

      TOTAL RETURN

   
      From time to time, the Fund may include its total return, average 
annual
total return and current dividend return for Class Z shares in 
advertisements
and/or other types of sales literature. These figures are based on 
historical
earnings and are not intended to indicate future performance. Total 
return is
computed for a specified period of time assuming deduction of the 
maximum sales
charge, if any, from the initial amount invested and reinvestment of 
all income
dividends and capital gains distributions on the reinvestment dates at 
prices
calculated as stated in this Prospectus, then dividing the value of the
investment at the end of the period so calculated by the initial amount 
invested
and subtracting 100%. The standard average annual total return, as 
prescribed by
the SEC, is derived from this total return which provides the ending 
redeemable
value. Such standard total return information may also be accompanied 
with
nonstandard total return information for differing periods computed in 
the same
manner but without annualizing the total return or taking sales charges 
into
account. The Fund calculates current dividend return for its Class Z 
shares by
annualizing the most recent monthly distribution and dividing by the 
net asset
value or the maximum public offering price (including sales charge) on 
the last
day of the period for which current dividend return is presented. The 
current
dividend return may vary from time to time depending on market 
conditions, the
composition of the investment portfolio and operating expenses. These 
factors
and possible differences in the methods used in calculating current 
dividend
return should be considered when comparing Class Z shares' current 
return to
yields published for other investment companies and other invest-

      BOARD OF DIRECTORS

      Overall responsibility for management and supervision of the 
Company rests
with the Company's Board of Directors. The Directors approve all 
significant
agreements between the Company and the companies that furnish services 
to the
Company and the Fund, including agreements with the Fund's distributor,
investment adviser, administrator, custodian and transfer agent. The 
day-to-day
operations of the Fund are delegated to the Fund's investment adviser 
and
administrator. The SAI contains background information regarding each 
Director
and executive officer of the Company.

      INVESTMENT ADVISER -- MMC

   
      The Adviser is a registered investment adviser whose principal 
executive
offices are located at 388 Greenwich Street, New York, New York 10013, 
and
serves as the Fund's investment adviser. The Adviser is a wholly-owned
subsidiary of Salomon Smith Barney Holdings Inc. ("Holdings"). Holdings 
is a
wholly-owned subsidiary of Citigroup Inc. ("Citigroup"). Citigroup 
businesses
produce a broad range of financial services -- asset management, 
banking and
consumer finance, credit and charge cards, insurance, investments, 
investment
banking and trading -- and use diverse channels to make them available 
to
consumer and corporate customers around the world. Among these 
businesses are
Citibank, Commercial Credit, Primerica Financial Services, Salomon 
Smith Barney,
SSBC Asset Management, Travelers Life & Annuity, and Travelers Property
Casualty. The Adviser has been in the investment counseling business 
(through
its predecessors) since 1968 and renders investment advice to a wide 
variety of
individual, institutional and investment company clients that had 
aggregate
assets under management as of September 30, 1998 in excess of $108 
billion.
    

      Subject to the supervision and direction of the Company's Board 
of
Directors, MMC manages the Fund's portfolio in accordance with the 
Fund's stated
investment objective and policies, makes investment decisions for the 
Fund,
places orders to purchase and sell securities and employs professional 
portfolio
managers and securities analysts who provide research services to the 
Fund. For
investment advisory services rendered, the Fund pays MMC a fee at the 
following
annual rates of average daily net assets: 0.35% up to $2 billion, 0.30% 
of the
next $2 billion,

0.25% of the next $2 billion, 0.20% of the next $2 billion and 0.15% of 
net
assets thereafter. For the fiscal year ended December 31, 1997, MMC was 
paid
investment advisory fees equal to 0.35% of the value of the Fund's 
average daily
net assets.

      PORTFOLIO MANAGEMENT

   
      James E. Conroy, Managing Director of Salomon Smith Barney, has 
served as
Vice President and Investment Officer of the Fund since the Fund's 
commencement
of operations (March 20, 1984) and manages the day-to-day operations of 
the
Fund, including making all investment decisions.

      Management's discussion and analysis and additional performance
information regarding the Fund during the fiscal year ended December 
31, 1997 is
included in the Fund's Annual Report dated December 31, 1997. A copy of 
the
Annual Report may be obtained upon request without charge from a 
Salomon Smith
Barney Financial Consultant or by writing or calling the Fund at the 
address or
phone number listed on page one of this Prospectus.
    

      ADMINISTRATOR -- MMC

      MMC also serves as the Fund's administrator and oversees all 
aspects of
the Fund's administration. For administration services rendered, the 
Fund pays
MMC a fee at the annual rate of 0.20% of the value of the Fund's 
average daily
net assets.

   
      On October 8, 1998, Travelers Group Inc. ("Travelers") and 
Citicorp
consummated their merger, creating a new entity called Citigroup. By 
approving
the merger, the Federal Reserve Board approved Travelers, as the 
surviving
entity, becoming a bank holding company subject to regulation under the 
Bank
Holding Company Act of 1956, the requirements of the Glass-Steagall Act 
and
certain other laws and regulations. MMC does not believe that its 
compliance
with the applicable law will have a material adverse effect on its 
ability to
continue to provide the Fund with the same level of investment advisory 
services
that it currently receives.
    

      DISTRIBUTOR

   
      CFBDS, Inc. is located at 21 Milk Street, Boston, MA 02109-5408

      The Company was organized as a Maryland corporation pursuant to 
Articles
of Incorporation dated September 29, 1981, as amended from time to 
time. The
Fund offers shares of common stock currently classified into five 
Classes, A, B,
L, Y and Z, with a par value of $.001 per share. Each Class of shares 
has the
same rights, privileges and preferences, except with respect to: (a) 
the
designation of each Class;

(b) the effect of the respective sales charges for each Class; (c) the
distribution and/or service fees borne by each Class; (d) the expenses 
allocable
exclusively to each Class; (e) voting rights on matters exclusively 
affecting a
single Class; (f) the exchange privilege of each Class; and (g) the 
conversion
feature of the Class B shares. The Board of Directors does not 
anticipate that
there will be any conflicts among the interests of the holders of the 
different
Classes. The Directors, on an ongoing basis, will consider whether any 
such
conflict exists and, if so, take appropriate action.

      PNC Bank, located at 17th and Chestnut Streets, Philadelphia PA 
19103,
serves as custodian of the Company's investments.

      First Data, located at Exchange Place, Boston, Massachusetts 
02109, serves
as the Company's transfer agent.

      The Company does not hold annual shareholder meetings. There 
normally will
be no meeting of shareholders for the purpose of electing Directors 
unless and
until such time as less than a majority of the Directors holding office 
have
been elected by shareholders. The Directors will call a meeting for any 
purpose
upon written request of shareholders holding at least 10% of the 
Company's
outstanding shares and the Company will assist shareholders in calling 
such a
meeting as required by the 1940 Act. When matters are submitted for 
shareholder
vote, shareholders of each Class will have one vote for each full share 
owned
and a proportionate fractional vote for any fractional share held of 
that Class.
Generally, shares of the Company will be voted on a Company-wide basis 
on all
matters except matters affecting only the interests of one Fund or one 
Class of
shares.

   
      The Fund sends its shareholders a semi-annual report and an 
audited annual
report, which include listings of the investment securities held by the 
Fund at
the end of the period covered. In an effort to reduce the Fund's 
printing and
mailing costs, the Company plans to consolidate the mailing of its 
semi-annual
and annual reports by household. This consolidation means that a 
household
having multiple accounts with the identical address of record will 
receive a
single copy of each report. Shareholders who do not want this 
consolidation to
apply to their account should contact their Salomon Smith Barney 
Financial
Consultants or First Data.
