1. Basis of Presentation
---------------------
Anchor National Life Insurance Company (the "Company") is an indirect wholly
owned subsidiary of SunAmerica Inc. (the "Parent"). In the opinion of the
Company, the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements contain
all adjustments (consisting of only normal recurring accruals) necessary to
present fairly the Company's consolidated financial position as of December 31,
1995 and September 30, 1995, and the results of its consolidated operations and
its consolidated cash flows for the three months ended December 31, 1995 and
1994. The results of operations for the three months ended December 31, 1995
are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements should be read in
conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements for the fiscal
year ended September 30, 1995, contained in the Company's Annual Report on Form
10-K. Certain items have been reclassified to conform to the current period's
presentation.
2. Reclassification of Securities Held for Investment
--------------------------------------------------
On December 1, 1995, the Company reassessed the appropriateness of classifying
a portion of its portfolio of bonds, notes and redeemable preferred stock as
held for investment (the "Held for Investment Portfolio"). This reassessment
was made pursuant to the provisions of "Special Report: A Guide to
Implementation of Statement 115 on Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt
and Equity Securities," issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board in
November 1995. As a result of its reassessment, the Company reclassified all
of its Held for Investment Portfolio as available for sale. At December 1,
1995, the amortized cost of the Held for Investment Portfolio aggregated
$157,830,000 and its fair value was $166,215,000. Upon reclassification, the
resulting net unrealized gain of $8,385,000 was credited to Net Unrealized
Gains (Losses) on Debt and Equity Securities Available for Sale in the
shareholder's equity section of the balance sheet.

PART I - FINANCIAL INFORMATION
ITEM 2 - MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The following is management's discussion and analysis of financial
condition and results of operations of Anchor National Life Insurance Company
(the "Company") for the three months ended December 31, 1995 ("Fiscal 1996")
and December 31, 1994 ("Fiscal 1995").
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
NET INCOME totaled $5.8 million in Fiscal 1996, compared with $10.6
million in Fiscal 1995.
PRETAX INCOME totaled $9.3 million in Fiscal 1996 and $16.2 million in
Fiscal 1995. This $6.9 million decline primarily resulted from increased net
realized investment losses and general and administrative expenses, partially
offset by an increase in net investment income and fee income.
NET INVESTMENT INCOME, which is the spread between the income earned on
invested assets and the interest paid on fixed annuities and other
interest-bearing liabilities, increased to $14.6 million in Fiscal 1996 from
$11.0 million in Fiscal 1995. These amounts represent net investment spreads
of 3.00% on average invested assets (computed on a daily basis) of $1.95
billion in Fiscal 1996 and 2.78% on average invested assets of $1.58 billion
in Fiscal 1995. Net investment spreads include the effect of income earned on
the excess of average invested assets over average interest-bearing
liabilities, which excess amounted to $133.2 million in Fiscal 1996 and $91.5
million in Fiscal 1995. The difference between the Company's yield on average
invested assets and the rate paid on average interest-bearing liabilities was
2.65% in Fiscal 1996 and 2.51% in Fiscal 1995.
Investment income totaled $38.7 million in Fiscal 1996, compared with
$28.2 million in Fiscal 1995. Investment income increased in Fiscal 1996 as
a result of an increase in investment yield on a higher level of average
invested assets. The yield on average invested assets increased to 7.95% in
Fiscal 1996 from 7.17% in Fiscal 1995. Over the last nine fiscal quarters, the
Company's quarterly investment yields on average invested assets have ranged
from 7.17% to 8.79%; however, there can be no assurance that the Company will
achieve similar yields in future periods.
The increased investment yield in Fiscal 1996 primarily resulted from
increased partnership income, which amounted to $1.4 million in Fiscal 1996,
compared with $0.3 million in Fiscal 1995. This partnership income represents
a yield of 11.60% on related average assets of $48.7 million in Fiscal 1996,
compared with 2.81% on related average assets of $48.6 million in Fiscal 1995.
Total interest expense aggregated $24.0 million in Fiscal 1996 and $17.3
million in Fiscal 1995. The average rate paid on all interest-bearing
liabilities was 5.30% (5.10% on fixed annuity contracts) in Fiscal 1996,
compared with 4.66% (4.60% on fixed annuity contracts) in Fiscal 1995.
Interest-bearing liabilities averaged $1.81 billion during Fiscal 1996,
compared with $1.48 billion during Fiscal 1995.
9
<PAGE>
The increase in the average rate paid on all interest-bearing liabilities
during Fiscal 1996 primarily resulted from increased average crediting rates
on the Company's fixed annuity contracts. Average fixed annuity crediting
rates were 5.10% in Fiscal 1996 and 4.60% in Fiscal 1995. The higher average
crediting rate on fixed annuity contracts in Fiscal 1996 reflects the crediting
rates on contracts issued and repriced during the 1995 calendar year. In
response to prevailing interest rates, these crediting rates were generally
greater than those on fixed annuities outstanding in Fiscal 1995.
The growth in average invested assets to $1.95 billion in Fiscal 1996
from $1.58 billion primarily reflects sales of the Company's fixed-rate
products, consisting of both fixed accounts of variable annuity products and
guaranteed investment contracts ("GICs"). Since December 31, 1994, fixed
annuity premiums have aggregated $249.1 million. These premiums for the fixed
accounts of variable annuity products totaled $62.5 million in Fiscal 1996,
compared with $58.8 million in Fiscal 1995. During 1995, the Company issued
GICs totaling $275.0 million, which guarantee the payment of principal and
interest at variable rates for a term of one year. The Company's GICs that are
purchased by asset management firms permit withdrawals with notice of 90 days.
Contracts that are purchased by banks or state and local governmental
authorities may permit scheduled book value withdrawals subject to terms of the
underlying indenture or agreement. In pricing GICs, the Company analyzes cash
flow information and prices accordingly so that it is compensated for possible
withdrawals prior to maturity (see "Financial Condition and Liquidity").
NET REALIZED INVESTMENT LOSSES totaled $12.8 million in Fiscal 1996 and
$4.8 million in Fiscal 1995. These amounts represent 2.63% and 1.22%,
respectively, of average invested assets. Net realized investment losses
include impairment writedowns of $14.9 million in Fiscal 1996 and $1.8 million
in Fiscal 1995. Therefore, net gains from sales of investments totaled $2.1
million in Fiscal 1996, compared with $3.0 million of net losses in Fiscal
1995.
Net gains in Fiscal 1996 include $2.7 million of net gains realized on
$110.4 million of sales of bonds. These bond sales include $50.9 million of
sales of mortgage-backed securities ("MBSs"), $33.7 million of sales of high-
yield investments, and $15.0 million of sales of senior secured loans, all of
which were primarily made to maximize total return.
Net losses in Fiscal 1995 include $4.2 million of net losses realized on
$46.3 million of sales of bonds. These bond sales include approximately $18.5
million of sales of certain collateralized mortgage obligations ("CMOs") and
asset-backed securities, $17.6 million of sales of high yield investments and
$10.0 million of sales of U.S. Treasury securities, all which were primarily
made to maximize total return.
Impairment writedowns in Fiscal 1996 reflect $14.9 million of provision
applied to certain real estate owned in Arizona on December 31, 1995. Prior
to that date, the statutory carrying value of this real estate had been
guaranteed by the Company's ultimate Parent, SunAmerica Inc. ("SunAmerica").
On December 31, 1995, SunAmerica made a capital contribution to the Company
through the Company's direct parent in exchange for the termination of its
guaranty with respect to this real estate. Accordingly, the Company reduced
the carrying value of this real estate to estimated fair value to reflect the
termination of the guaranty. SunAmerica continues to guarantee the statutory
carrying value of the Company's other real estate owned in Arizona.
10
<PAGE>
Impairment writedowns in Fiscal 1995 include $1.8 million of additional
provisions applied to certain interest-only strips ("IOs"). IOs, a type of MBS
used as an asset-liability matching tool to hedge against rising interest
rates, are investment grade securities that give the holder the right to
receive only the interest payments on a pool of underlying mortgage loans. At
December 31, 1995, the amortized cost of the IOs held by the Company was $4.9
million and their fair value was $7.1 million.
VARIABLE ANNUITY FEES are based on the market value of assets supporting
variable annuity contracts in separate accounts. Such fees increased to $24.3
million in Fiscal 1996 from $20.4 million in Fiscal 1995. This increase
reflects growth in average variable annuity assets, principally due to
increased market values and the receipt of variable annuity premiums, partially
offset by surrenders. Variable annuity assets averaged $5.29 billion during
Fiscal 1996 and $4.41 billion during Fiscal 1995. Variable annuity premiums,
which exclude premiums allocated to the fixed accounts of variable annuity
products, totaled $209.5 million in Fiscal 1996 and $101.8 million in Fiscal
1995. This increase in premiums can be attributed, in part, to a heightened
demand for equity and bond investments, principally as a result of generally
improved market performance in the 1995 calendar year. The Company has
encountered increased competition in the variable annuity marketplace during
recent years and anticipates that the market will remain highly competitive for
the foreseeable future.
ASSET MANAGEMENT FEES, which include investment advisory fees and 12b-1
distribution fees, are based on the market value of assets managed in mutual
funds and private accounts by SunAmerica Asset Management Corp. Such fees
totaled $6.5 million on average assets managed of $2.15 billion in Fiscal 1996
and $7.0 million on average assets managed of $2.10 billion in Fiscal 1995.
Asset management fees are not proportionate to average assets managed primarily
due to changes in product mix. Sales of mutual funds, excluding sales of money
market accounts, amounted to $36.3 million in Fiscal 1996, compared with $29.5
million in Fiscal 1995. Redemptions of mutual funds, excluding redemptions of
money market accounts, amounted to $97.6 million in Fiscal 1996, compared with
$140.5 million in Fiscal 1995.
NET RETAINED COMMISSIONS are primarily derived from commissions on the
sales of nonproprietary investment products by the Company's broker-dealer
subsidiary, after deducting the substantial portion of such commissions that
is passed on to registered representatives. Net retained commissions totaled
$6.3 million in Fiscal 1996 and $4.6 million in Fiscal 1995. Broker-dealer
sales (mainly general securities, mutual funds and annuities) totaled $1.75
billion in Fiscal 1996 and $991.2 million in Fiscal 1995. Net retained
commissions are not proportionate to sales primarily due to differences in
sales mix.
SURRENDER CHARGES on fixed and variable annuities totaled $1.3 million
in Fiscal 1996 and $1.5 million in Fiscal 1995. Surrender charges generally
are assessed on annuity withdrawals at declining rates during the first five
to seven years of the contract. Withdrawal payments, which include surrenders
and lump-sum annuity benefits, totaled $215.1 million in Fiscal 1996 and $212.5
million in Fiscal 1995. These payments represent 12.8% and 14.7%,
respectively, of average fixed and variable annuity reserves. Withdrawals
include variable annuity payments from the separate accounts totaling $154.5
million in Fiscal 1996 and $144.0 million in Fiscal 1995. Although variable
11
<PAGE>
annuity surrenders have increased, principally as a result of growth in the
variable annuity separate accounts, variable annuity withdrawal rates have
declined. Variable annuity surrenders represent 11.7% and 13.1%, respectively,
of average variable annuity liabilities in Fiscal 1996 and Fiscal 1995. The
decrease in fixed annuity surrenders to $60.6 million in Fiscal 1996 from $68.4
million in Fiscal 1995, results primarily from unusually high surrenders in
Fiscal 1995, principally due to policies coming off surrender charge
restrictions and a greater volume of surrenders on a closed block of business
in Fiscal 1995. Management anticipates that withdrawal rates will remain
relatively stable for the foreseeable future and the Company's investment
portfolio has been structured to provide sufficient liquidity for anticipated
withdrawals.
GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES totaled $17.0 million in Fiscal 1996,
compared with $12.7 million in Fiscal 1995. General and administrative
expenses in Fiscal 1996 include expenses related to a national advertising
campaign, as well as additional administrative expenses relating to a growing
block of business. General and administrative expenses remain closely
controlled through a company-wide cost containment program and represent
approximately 1% of average total assets.
AMORTIZATION OF DEFERRED ACQUISITION COSTS totaled $12.8 million in
Fiscal 1996 and $11.9 million in Fiscal 1995. This increase was primarily due
to additional fixed and variable annuity and mutual fund sales and the
subsequent amortization of related deferred commissions and other acquisition
costs.
INCOME TAX EXPENSE totaled $3.4 million in Fiscal 1996 and $5.6 million
in Fiscal 1995, representing effective tax rates of 37% and 35%, respectively.
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND LIQUIDITY
SHAREHOLDER'S EQUITY increased by $44.3 million to $486.4 million at
December 31, 1995 from $442.1 million at September 30, 1995, primarily as a
result of a $27.3 million cash contribution of capital and $5.8 million of net
income recorded in Fiscal 1996. Shareholder's equity at December 31, 1995 was
also favorably impacted by the recording of a $5.5 million net unrealized gain
on debt and equity securities available for sale, an $11.2 million improvement
over the $5.7 million net unrealized loss recorded at September 30, 1995.
TOTAL ASSETS increased by $60.6 million to $7.84 billion at December 31,
1995 from $7.78 billion at September 30, 1995, principally due to a $188.3
million increase in the separate account for variable annuities, offset by a
$150.5 million decline in invested assets.
INVESTED ASSETS at December 31, 1995 totaled $1.96 billion, compared with
$2.11 billion in September 30, 1995. This $150.5 million decrease primarily
resulted from a $173.9 million reduction in amounts payable to brokers.
The Company manages most of its invested assets internally. The
Company's general investment philosophy is to hold fixed maturity assets for
long-term investment. Thus, it does not have a trading portfolio. Effective
December 1, 1995, pursuant to guidelines issued by the Financial Accounting
Standards Board, the Company determined that all of its portfolio of bonds,
notes and redeemable preferred stocks (the "Bond Portfolio") is available
12
<PAGE>
to be sold in response to changes in market interest rates, changes in
prepayment risk, the Company's need for liquidity and other similar factors.
Accordingly, the Company does not presently classify a portion of its Bond
Portfolio as held for investment.
THE BOND PORTFOLIO had an aggregate fair value that exceeded its
amortized cost by $14.7 million at December 31, 1995. At September 30, 1995,
the amortized cost of the Bond Portfolio was $3.7 million above its fair value
(including $10.8 million of net unrealized losses on the portion of the
portfolio that was designated as available for sale). The net unrealized gains
on the Bond Portfolio since September 30, 1995 principally reflect the lower
relative prevailing interest rates at December 31, 1995 and their corresponding
effect on the fair value of the Bond Portfolio.
Approximately $1.63 billion or 99.8% of the Bond Portfolio (at amortized
cost) at December 31, 1995 was rated by Standard and Poor's Corporation
("S&P"), Moody's Investors Service ("Moody's") or under comparable statutory
rating guidelines established by the National Association of Insurance
Commissioners ("NAIC") and implemented by either the NAIC or the Company. At
December 31, 1995, approximately $1.50 billion (at amortized cost) was rated
investment grade by one or both of these agencies or under the NAIC guidelines,
including $1.24 billion of U.S. government/agency securities and MBSs.
At December 31, 1995, the Bond Portfolio included $131.6 million (fair
value, $125.5 million) of bonds not rated investment grade by S&P, Moody's or
the NAIC. Based on their December 31, 1995 amortized cost, these non-
investment-grade bonds accounted for 1.68% of the Company's total assets and
6.74% of invested assets.
Non-investment-grade securities generally provide higher yields and
involve greater risks than investment-grade securities because their issuers
typically are more highly leveraged and more vulnerable to adverse economic
conditions than investment-grade issuers. In addition, the trading market for
these securities is usually more limited than for investment-grade securities.
The Company intends that its holdings of such securities not exceed current
levels, but its policies may change from time to time, including in connection
with any possible acquisition. The Company had no material concentrations of
non-investment-grade securities at December 31, 1995.
The table on the following page summarizes the Company's rated bonds by
rating classification as of December 31, 1995.

(1) S&P rates debt securities in eleven rating categories, from AAA (the highest) to D (in payment default). A plus (+)
or minus (-) indicates the debt's relative standing within the rating category. A security rated BBB- or higher is
considered investment grade. Moody's rates debt securities in nine rating categories, from Aaa (the highest) to C
(extremely poor prospects of attaining real investment standing). The number 1, 2 or 3 (with 1 the highest and 3 the
lowest) indicates the debt's relative standing within the rating category. A security rated Baa3 or higher is
considered investment grade. Issues are categorized based on the higher of the S&P or Moody's rating if rated by both
agencies.
(2) Bonds and short-term promissory instruments are divided into six quality categories for NAIC rating purposes, ranging
from 1 (highest) to 5 (lowest) for nondefaulted bonds plus one category, 6, for bonds in or near default. These six
categories correspond with the S&P(Moody's) rating groups listed above, with categories 1 and 2 considered investment
grade. A substantial portion of the assets in the NAIC categories were rated by the Company based on its
implementation of NAIC rating guidelines.
(3) At amortized cost.

SENIOR SECURED LOANS ("Secured Loans") are included in the Bond
Portfolio and their amortized cost aggregated $93.7 million at December 31,
1995. Secured Loans are senior to subordinated debt and equity, and are
secured by assets of the issuer. At December 31, 1995, Secured Loans consisted
of loans to 29 borrowers spanning 10 industries, with 32% of these assets (at
amortized cost) concentrated in the leisure industry and with no other industry
concentration constituting more than 11% of these assets.
While the trading market for Secured Loans is more limited than for
publicly traded corporate debt issues, management believes that participation
in these transactions has enabled the Company to improve its investment yield.
Although, as a result of restrictive financial covenants, Secured Loans involve
greater risk of technical default than do publicly traded investment-grade
securities, management believes that the risk of loss upon default for its
Secured Loans is mitigated by their financial covenants and senior secured
positions. The majority of the Company's Secured Loans are not rated by S&P
or Moody's.
MORTGAGE LOANS aggregated $92.9 million at December 31, 1995 and
consisted of 14 first mortgage loans with an average loan balance of
approximately $6.6 million, collateralized by properties located in 8 states.
Approximately 24% of the portfolio was office, 22% was hotel, 18% was retail,
18% was multifamily residential and 18% was other types. At December 31, 1995,
approximately 22% of the portfolio was secured by properties located in
Colorado, approximately 18% by properties located in New Jersey and
approximately 17% by properties in California. No more than 13% of the
portfolio was secured by properties in any other single state. At December 31,
1995, there was one loan with an outstanding balance of $20 million or more,
which loan aggregated approximately 22% of the portfolio. At December 31,
1995, approximately 34% of the mortgage loan portfolio consisted of loans with
balloon payments due before January 1, 1999. At December 31, 1995, there were
no loans delinquent by more than 90 days. There were no loans foreclosed upon
and transferred to real estate in the balance sheet during Fiscal 1996.
Approximately 65% of the mortgage loans in the portfolio at December 31,
1995 were seasoned loans underwritten to the Company's standards and purchased
at or near par from another financial institution which was downsizing its
portfolio. Such loans generally have higher average interest rates than loans
that could be originated today. The balance of the mortgage loan portfolio has
been originated by the Company under strict underwriting standards. Commercial
mortgage loans on properties such as offices, hotels and shopping centers
generally represent a higher level of risk than do mortgage loans secured by
multifamily residences. This greater risk is due to several factors, including
the larger size of such loans and the effects of general economic conditions
on these commercial properties. However, due to the seasoned nature of the
Company's mortgage loans and its strict underwriting standards, the Company
believes that it has reduced the risk attributable to its mortgage loan
portfolio while maintaining attractive yields.
At December 31, 1995, mortgage loans having an aggregate carrying value
of $23.3 million had been restructured. Of this amount, $16.5 million was
restructured during fiscal 1995 and $6.8 million was restructured during
fiscal 1992. No mortgage loans were restructured during Fiscal 1996.

REAL ESTATE aggregated $40.9 million at December 31, 1995 and consisted
of non-income producing land in the Phoenix, Arizona metropolitan area. Of
this amount, the Company has undertaken to dispose of $28.4 million during the
next year, either to affiliated or nonaffiliated parties; and SunAmerica Inc.,
the ultimate parent, has guaranteed that the Company will receive its statutory
carrying value of these assets.
OTHER INVESTED ASSETS aggregated $51.4 million at December 31, 1995,
including $35.6 million of investments in limited partnerships and an aggregate
of $15.8 million of miscellaneous investments, including policy loans, CMO
residuals and leveraged leases. The Company's limited partnership interests
primarily include partnerships that are accounted for by using the cost method
of accounting and that invest mainly in equity securities.
ASSET-LIABILITY MATCHING is utilized by the Company to minimize the risks
of interest rate fluctuations and disintermediation. The Company believes that
its fixed-rate liabilities should be backed by a portfolio principally composed
of fixed maturities that generate predictable rates of return. The Company
does not have a specific target rate of return. Instead, its rates of return
vary over time depending on the current interest rate environment, the slope
of the yield curve, the spread at which fixed maturities are priced over the
yield curve and general competitive conditions within the industry. Its
portfolio strategy is designed to achieve adequate risk-adjusted returns
consistent with its investment objectives of effective asset-liability
matching, liquidity and safety.
The Company designs its fixed-rate products and conducts its investment
operations in order to closely match the duration of the assets in its
investment portfolio to its annuity and GIC obligations. The Company seeks to
achieve a predictable spread between what it earns on its assets and what it
pays on its liabilities by investing principally in fixed maturities. The
Company's fixed-rate products incorporate surrender charges or other
limitations on when contracts can be surrendered for cash to encourage
persistency. Approximately 54% of the Company's fixed annuity reserves had
surrender penalties or other restrictions at December 31, 1995.
As part of its asset-liability matching discipline, the Company conducts
detailed computer simulations that model its fixed-maturity assets and
liabilities under commonly used stress-test interest rate scenarios. Based on
the results of these computer simulations, the investment portfolio has been
constructed with a view to maintaining a desired investment spread between the
yield on portfolio assets and the rate paid on its reserves under a variety of
possible future interest rate scenarios. At December 31, 1995, the weighted
average life of the Company's investments was approximately four years and the
duration was approximately three years. Weighted average life is defined as
the average time to receipt of all principal, incorporating the effects of
scheduled amortization and expected prepayments, weighted by book value.
Duration is a common measure for the price sensitivity of a fixed-income
security or portfolio to changes in interest rates. It is the weighted average
time to receipt of all expected cash flows, both principal and interest,
including the effects of scheduled amortization and expected prepayments, in
which the weight attached to each year of receipt is the proportion of the
present value of cash to be received during that year to the total present
value of the portfolio.
16
<PAGE>
The Company also seeks to provide liquidity by using reverse repurchase
agreements ("Reverse Repos"), Dollar Rolls and by investing in MBSs. It also
seeks to enhance its spread income by using Reverse Repos and Dollar Rolls.
Reverse Repos involve a sale of securities and an agreement to repurchase the
same securities at a later date at an agreed upon price and are generally over-
collateralized. Dollar Rolls are similar to Reverse Repos except that the
repurchase involves securities that are only substantially the same as the
securities sold and the arrangement is not collateralized, nor is it governed
by a repurchase agreement. MBSs are generally investment-grade securities
collateralized by large pools of mortgage loans. MBSs generally pay principal
and interest monthly. The amount of principal and interest payments may
fluctuate as a result of prepayments of the underlying mortgage loans.
There are risks associated with some of the techniques the Company uses
to provide liquidity, enhance its spread income and match its assets and
liabilities. The primary risk associated with Dollar Rolls and Reverse Repos
is counterparty risk. The Company believes, however, that the counterparties
to its Dollar Rolls and Reverse Repos are financially responsible and that the
counterparty risk associated with those transactions is minimal. Counterparty
risk associated with Dollar Rolls is further mitigated by the Company's
participation in an MBS trading clearinghouse. The sell and buy transactions
that are submitted to this clearinghouse are marked to market on a daily basis
and each participant is required to over-collateralize its net loss position
by 30% with either cash, letters of credit or government securities. The
primary risk associated with MBSs is that a changing interest rate environment
might cause prepayment of the underlying obligations at speeds slower or faster
than anticipated at the time of their purchase.
INVESTED ASSETS EVALUATION routinely includes a review by the Company of
its portfolio of debt securities. Management identifies monthly those
investments that require additional monitoring and carefully reviews the
carrying value of such investments at least quarterly to determine whether
specific investments should be placed on a nonaccrual basis and to determine
declines in value that may be other than temporary. In making these reviews
for bonds, management principally considers the adequacy of collateral (if
any), compliance with contractual covenants, the borrower's recent financial
performance, news reports and other externally generated information concerning
the creditor's affairs. In the case of publicly traded bonds, management also
considers market value quotations, if available. For mortgage loans,
management generally considers information concerning the mortgaged property
and, among other things, factors impacting the current and expected payment
status of the loan and, if available, the current fair value of the underlying
collateral.
The carrying values of bonds that are determined to have declines in
value that are other than temporary are reduced to net realizable value and no
further accruals of interest are made. The valuation allowances on mortgage
loans are based on losses expected by management to be realized on transfers
of mortgage loans to real estate, on the disposition and settlement of mortgage
loans and on mortgage loans that management believes may not be collectible in
full. Accrual of interest is suspended when principal and interest payments
on mortgage loans are past due more than 90 days.
DEFAULTED INVESTMENTS, comprising all investments (at amortized cost)
that are in default as to the payment of principal or interest, totaled $5.0
17
<PAGE>
million (fair value, $3.1 million) at December 31, 1995. At December 31, 1995
defaulted investments constituted 0.3% of total invested assets at amortized
cost. At September 30, 1995, defaulted investments totaled $5.0 million, which
constituted 0.2% of total invested assets at amortized cost.
SOURCES OF LIQUIDITY are readily available to the Company in the form of
existing cash and short-term investments, Reverse Repo capacity on invested
assets and, if required, proceeds from invested asset sales. At December 31,
1995, approximately $1.32 billion of the Company's Bond Portfolio had an
aggregate unrealized gain of $37.9 million, while approximately $313.1 million
of the Bond Portfolio had an aggregate unrealized loss of $23.2 million. In
addition, the Company's investment portfolio also currently provides
approximately $21.5 million of monthly cash flow from scheduled principal and
interest payments.
Management is aware that prevailing market interest rates may shift
significantly and has strategies in place to manage either an increase or
decrease in prevailing rates. In a rising interest rate environment, the
Company's average cost of funds would increase over time as it prices its new
and renewing annuities and GICs to maintain a generally competitive market
rate. Management would seek to place new funds in investments that were
matched in duration to, and higher yielding than, the liabilities assumed. The
Company believes that liquidity to fund withdrawals would be available through
incoming cash flow, the sale of short-term or floating-rate instruments or
Reverse Repos on the Company's substantial MBS segment of the Bond Portfolio,
thereby avoiding the sale of fixed-rate assets in an unfavorable bond market.
In a declining rate environment, the Company's cost of funds would
decrease over time, reflecting lower interest crediting rates on its fixed
annuities and GICs. Should increased liquidity be required for withdrawals,
the Company believes that a significant portion of its investments could be
sold without adverse consequences in light of the general strengthening that
would be expected in the bond market.
REGULATION
The Company is subject to regulation and supervision by the states in
which it is authorized to transact business. State insurance laws establish
supervisory agencies with broad administrative and supervisory powers related
to granting and revoking licenses to transact business, regulating marketing
and other trade practices, operating guaranty associations, licensing agents,
approving policy forms, regulating certain premium rates, regulating insurance
holding company systems, establishing reserve requirements, prescribing the
form and content of required financial statements and reports, performing
financial and other examinations, determining the reasonableness and adequacy
of statutory capital and surplus, regulating the type and amount of investments
permitted, limiting the amount of dividends that can be paid and the size of
transactions that can be consummated without first obtaining regulatory
approval and other related matters.
During the last decade, the insurance regulatory framework has been
placed under increased scrutiny by various states, the federal government and
the NAIC. Various states have considered or enacted legislation that changes,
and in many cases increases, the states' authority to regulate insurance
18
<PAGE>
companies. Legislation has been introduced from time to time in Congress that
could result in the federal government assuming some role in the regulation of
insurance companies. In recent years, the NAIC has approved and recommended
to the states for adoption and implementation several regulatory initiatives
designed to reduce the risk of insurance company insolvencies. These
initiatives include new investment reserve requirements, risk-based capital
standards and restrictions on an insurance company's ability to pay dividends
to its stockholders. The NAIC is also currently developing model laws to
govern insurance company investments. Current proposals are still being
debated and the Company is monitoring developments in this area and the effects
any changes would have on the Company.
SunAmerica Asset Management is registered with the Securities and
Exchange Commission (the "Commission") as a registered investment adviser under
the Investment Advisers Act of 1940. The mutual funds that it markets are
subject to regulation under the Investment Company Act of 1940. SunAmerica
Asset Management and the mutual funds are subject to regulation and examination
by the Commission. In addition, variable annuities and the related separate
accounts of the Company are subject to regulation by the Commission under the
Securities Act of 1933 and the Investment Company Act of 1940.
The Company's broker-dealer subsidiary is subject to regulation and
supervision by the states in which it transacts business, as well as by the
National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. (the "NASD"). The NASD has
broad administrative and supervisory powers relative to all aspects of business
and may examine the subsidiary's business and accounts at any time.

consideration and action upon the reports of officers and directors and any
other business within the power of the Corporation. All annual meetings
shall be general meetings.
Section 2. Special Meetings Called by President or Board of
Directors. At any time in the interval between annual meetings, special
meetings of shareholders may be called by the President, the Secretary or by
two (2) or more directors, upon ten (10) days' written or printed notice,
stating the place, day and hour of such meeting and the business proposed to
be transacted thereat. Such notice shall be given in the manner provided in
Section 1 of Article IX. No business shall be transacted at any special
meeting except that named in the notice.
Section 3. Special Meeting Called by Shareholders. Upon the
request in writing delivered to the President or Secretary of the Corporation
by the holders of ten percent (10%) or more of all shares outstanding and
entitled to vote, it shall be the duty of the President or Secretary of the
Corporation to call forthwith a special meeting of the shareholders. Such
request shall state the purpose or purposes of such meeting and the matters
proposed to be acted on thereat. The Secretary of the Corporation shall
inform such shareholders of the reasonably estimated cost of preparing and
mailing the notice of the meeting. If upon payment of such costs to the
corporation, the person to whom such request in writing shall have been
delivered shall fail to issue a call for such meeting within ten (10) days
after the receipt of such request and payment of costs, then the shareholders
owning ten percent (10%) or more of the voting shares may do so upon giving
fifteen (15) days' notice of the time, place and object of the meeting in the
manner provided in Section 1 of Article IX.
Section 4. Removal of Directors. At any special meeting of
the shareholders called in the manner provided for by this Article, the
shareholders, by a vote of a majority of all shares of stock outstanding and
entitled to vote, may remove any director or the entire Board of Directors
from office and may elect a successor or successors to fill any resulting
vacancies for the remainder of his or their terms.
Section 5. Voting; Proxies; Record Date. At all meetings of
shareholders any shareholder entitled to vote may vote by proxy. Such proxy
shall be in writing and signed by the shareholder or by his duly authorized
attorney in fact. It shall be dated, but need not be sealed, witnessed or
acknowledged. The Board of Directors may fix the record date for the
determination of shareholders entitled to vote in the manner provided in
Section 4 of Article IX hereof.
Section 6. Quorum. The presence in person or by proxy of the
persons entitled to vote a majority of the voting shares of any meeting shall
constitute a quorum for the transaction of business. If at any annual or
special meeting of shareholders a quorum shall fail to attend in person or by
proxy, a majority in interest attending in person or by proxy may adjourn the
meeting from time to time, not exceeding thirty (30) days in all, and
thereupon any business may be transacted which might have been transacted at
the meeting originally called had the same been held at the time so called.
Section 7. Filing Proxies. At all meetings of shareholders,
the proxies shall be filed with and be verified by the Secretary of the
Corporation or, if the meeting shall so decide, by the Secretary of the
meeting.
Section 8. Place of Meetings. All meetings of shareholders
shall be held at such place, either within or without the State of Arizona,
on such date and at such time as may be determined from time to time by the
Board of Directors (or the Chairman in the absence of a designation by the
Board of Directors).
Section 9. Order of Business. The order of business at all
meetings of shareholders shall be as determined by the Chairman of the
meeting.
Section 10. Action Without Meeting. Directors may be elected
without a shareholders' meeting by a consent in writing, setting forth the
action so taken, signed by all persons entitled to vote for the election of
directors; provided, however, that the foregoing shall not limit the power of
directors to fill vacancies in the Board of Directors, and that a director
may be elected to fill a vacancy not filled by the directors by written
consent in the manner provided by the General Corporation Law.
Any other action, which under any provision of the General
Corporation Law, may be taken at a meeting of the shareholders, may be taken
without a meeting, and without notice except as hereinafter set forth, if a
consent in writing, setting forth the action so taken, is signed by the
holders of outstanding shares having not less than the minimum number of
votes that would be necessary to authorize or take such action at a meeting
at which all shares entitled to vote thereon were present and voted.
All written consents shall be filed with the Secretary of the
Corporation. Any shareholder giving a written consent, or the shareholder's
proxyholders, or a transferee of the shares of a personal representative of
the shareholder or their respective proxyholders, may revoke the consent by
a writing receiving by the Corporation prior to the time that written
consents of the number of shares required to authorize the proposed action
have been filed with the Secretary of the Corporation, but may not do so
thereafter. Such revocation is effective upon its receipt by the Secretary
of the Corporation.
ARTICLE II.
Directors.
Section 1. Powers. The Board of Directors shall have the
control and management of the affairs, business and properties of the
Corporation. They shall have and exercise in the name of the Corporation and
on behalf of the Corporation all the rights and privileges legally
exercisable by the Corporation, except as otherwise provided by law, by the
Charter or by these Bylaws. A director need not be a shareholder or a
resident of Arizona.
Section 2. Number; Term of Office; Removal. The number of
directors of the Corporation shall be not less than five (5) nor more than
fifteen (15). The number to be elected at each annual meeting shall be fixed
by resolution of the directors and stated in the notice of the meeting,
subject, however, to approval by the shareholders voting at the meeting. The
directors shall hold office for the term of one year, or until their
successors are elected and qualify. A director may be removed from office as
provided in Section 4 of Article I hereof.
Section 3. Vacancies. If the office of a director becomes
vacant, or if the number of directors is increased, such vacancy may be
filled by the Board by a vote of a majority of directors then in office
though not less than a quorum. The shareholders may, however, at any time
during the term of such director, elect some other person to fill said
vacancy and thereupon the election by the Board shall be superseded and such
election by the shareholders shall be deemed a filling of the vacancy and not
a removal and may be made at any special meeting called for that purpose.
Section 4. Organization Meetings; Regular Meetings. The
Board of Directors shall meet for the election of officers and any other
business as soon as practicable after the adjournment of the annual meeting
of the shareholders. No notice of the organization meeting shall be required
if it is held at the same place and immediately following the annual meeting
of the shareholders. Other regular meetings of the Board of Directors may be
held at such intervals as the Board may from time to time prescribe.
Any action required or permitted to be taken at a meeting of
the Board of Directors or of a committee of the Board may be taken without a
meeting, if a unanimous written consent which sets forth the action is signed
by each member of the Board or committee and filed with the minutes of
proceedings of the Board or committee.
Unless otherwise restricted by the Articles of Incorporation
or these Bylaws, members of the Board of Directors, or any committee
designated by the Board of Directors, may participate in a meeting of the
Board of Directors, or such committee, as the case may be, by means of
telephone conference or similar communications equipment by means of which
are persons participating in the meeting can hear each other, and such
participation in a meeting shall constitute presence in person at the
meeting.
Section 5. Special Meetings. Special meetings of the Board
may be called by the President or by a majority of the directors. At least
twenty-four (24) hours' notice shall be given of all special meetings; with
the consent of the majority of the directors, a shorter notice may be given.
Section 6. Quorum. A majority of the Board of Directors
shall constitute a quorum for the transaction of business, but such number
may be decreased and/or increased at any time or from time to time by vote of
a majority of the entire Board to any number not less than two (2) directors
or not less than one-third of the directors, whichever is greater.
Section 7. Place of Meetings. The Board of Directors shall
hold its meetings at such place, either within or without the State of
Arizona, and at such time as may be determined from time to time by the Board
of Directors (or the Chairman in the absence of a determination by the Board
of Directors).
Section 8. Rules and Regulations. The Board of Directors may
adopt such rules and regulations for the conduct of its meetings and the
management of the affairs of the Corporation as the Board may deem proper and
not inconsistent with the laws of the State of Arizona or these Bylaws or the
Charter.
Section 9. Compensation. The directors, as such, may receive
a stated salary for their services and/or a fixed sum and expenses of
attendance may be allowed for attendance at each regular or special meeting
of the Board of Directors. Such stated salary and/or attendance fee shall be
determined by resolution of the Board unless the shareholders have adopted a
resolution relating thereto, provided that nothing herein contained shall be
construed to preclude a director from serving in any other capacity and
receiving compensation therefor.
Section 10. Chairman of the Board. The Board of Directors
shall provide for a Chairman of the Board from among its members. So long as
there shall be a person so active, he shall preside at all meetings of the
Board and at all joint meetings of officers and directors. In the absence of
the Chairman, the Vice Chairman, if any, or in his absence, the President,
shall preside at all meetings of the Board and all joint meetings of officers
and directors.
Section 11. Investment Committee. There shall be an
Investment Committee consisting of the President of the Corporation ex
officio and such members of the Board of Directors and/or officers and
employees as the Board may by resolution prescribe. No investments or loans
(other than policy loans or annuity contract loans) shall be made unless the
same be authorized or approved by the Board of Directors or the Investment
Committee. The Investment Committee shall maintain minutes of its meetings
and shall submit regular reports to the Board of Directors.
Section 12. Executive Committee. The Board of Directors may
appoint from among its members an Executive Committee composed of three (3)
or more directors, and may delegate to such Committee, in the interval
between the meetings of the Board of Directors, any and all of the powers of
the Board of Directors in the management of the business and affairs of the
Corporation, except the power to declare dividends, issue stock, select
directors to fill vacancies in the membership of the Executive Committee or
recommend to shareholders any action requiring shareholders' approval. The
members of such Committee shall constitute a quorum for the transaction of
business at any meeting and the act of a majority of the members present at
any meeting at which the quorum requirement is satisfied shall be the act of
the Board of Directors. In the absence of any member of the Executive
Committee necessary to constitute a quorum, the members thereof present at
any meeting, whether or not they constitute a quorum, may, with telephonic
approval of one of the absent members of the Executive Committee, appoint a
member of the Board of Directors to act in place of such absent member.
Section 13. Other Committees. The Board of Directors may
appoint from its own members and, where permitted by law, from the
Corporation's officers and/or employees, such standing, temporary, special or
ad hoc committees as the Board may determine, investing such committees with
such powers, duties and functions as the Board may prescribe. All such
committees shall include the President, ex officio.
Section 14. Advisory Board. The Board of Directors may elect
an Advisory Board to serve until the next annual meeting of the Board of
Directors or until their successors are elected and qualify. Such Board
shall consist of a number as determined from time to time by the Board of
Directors, and they shall be advised of the meetings of the Board of
Directors and authorized to attend the meetings and counsel with them, but
shall have no vote. The Board of Directors (and between meeting of the Board
of Directors, the Executive Committee) shall have the authority to increase
or decrease the number of members to the Advisory Board and to elect one or
more members to the Advisory Board to serve until the next meeting of the
Board of Directors and until their successors are elected and qualify, and
may provide for the compensation and other rules and regulations with respect
to such Board.
Section 15. Procedures; Meetings. The Committees shall keep
minutes of their proceedings and shall report the same to the Board of
Directors at the meeting next succeeding, and any action by the Committees
shall be subject to revision and alteration by the Board of Directors,
provided that no rights of third persons shall be affected by any such
revision or alteration.

Officer of the Corporation and shall have the general management of the
Corporation's business in all departments. In the absence of the Chairman of

the President, the Vice Presidents, if any, in order of their rank as
designated by the Board of Directors or, if not ranked, the Vice President
designated by the Board of Directors, shall perform all the duties of the

all the restrictions upon, the President. The Vice Presidents shall have
such other powers and perform such other duties as from time to time may be
prescribed for them respectively by the Board of Directors or the Bylaws.
Section 4. Treasurer. Unless there shall be a financial Vice
President designated by the Board of Directors as the chief financial officer

signed in accordance with a resolution of the Board shall be the valid act of
this Corporation as fully as if executed by any regular officer.
ARTICLE IV.
Resignation.
Any director or officer may resign his office at any time.
Such resignation shall be made in writing and shall take effect from the time
of its receipt by the Corporation, unless some time be fixed in the

ARTICLE V.
Indemnification of Directors and Officers.
The Corporation shall indemnify any and all of its existing
and former directors and officers and their spouses against all expenses
incurred by them and each of them, including but not confined to legal fees,
judgments and penalties which may be incurred, rendered or levied in any
legal or administrative action brought against any of then, for or on account
of any action or omission alleged to have been committed while acting within
the scope of employment as director of officer of the Corporation to the
fullest extent allowable pursuant to the Arizona General Corporation Law as
may be amended from time to time. Whenever any such person has grounds to
believe that he may incur any such aforementioned expense, he shall promptly
make a full report of the matter to the President and the Secretary of the
Corporation. Thereafter, the Board of Directors of the Corporation shall,
within a reasonable time, determine if such person acted, or failed to act,
in good faith and in a manner he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed
to the best interest of the Corporation, and, with respect to any criminal
action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe his conduct was
unlawful. If the Board of Directors determines that such person acted, or
failed to act, in good faith and in a manner he reasonably believed to be in
or not opposed to the best interests of the Corporation, and, with respect to
any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe his
conduct was unlawful, then indemnification shall be mandatory and shall be
automatically extended as specified herein, provided, however, that the
Corporation shall have the right to refuse indemnification, wholly or
partially, in any instance in which the person to whom indemnification would
otherwise have been applicable shall have unreasonably refused to permit the
Corporation, at its own expense and through counsel of its own choosing, to
defend him in the action, or shall have unreasonably refused to cooperate in
the defense of such action.
