The SEC requires that standardized performance figures be updated no more
frequently than each calendar quarter. The numbers below represent the standard
calculation method which assumes that the contract was surrendered at the end of
the period and that the maximum applicable withdrawal charge of up to 7% per
contribution (less 10% of the account balance that can be withdrawn each year
without charge from certain account balances) was paid. Based upon these
assumptions, the Average Annual Returns as of 6/30/98 are:

Letter from the Fund's Chairman and President
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Dear Investor:
We are pleased to present the June 30, 1998 Semiannual Report of the
Metropolitan Series Fund, Inc. We have prefaced the Report with an overview of
the U.S. and international economies during the first six months of 1998.
Details for each Portfolio, including a listing of assets, investments, and
Portfolio characteristics, follow.
- -------------------------------------
Economic Review
- -------------------------------------
The U.S. economy continued to forge ahead with low inflation. Consumer demand
remained strong in real terms, but rising inventories and trade deficits were
slowing overall growth in Gross Domestic Product. High-tech goods production
accounted for a substantial portion of growth. The collapse in Asian economies,
together with surging capacity at home, held down inflation. U.S. budget surplus
forecasts were rising toward $100 billion for FY 1998.
The Federal Reserve seemed unlikely to change its policy on interest rates.
Indeed, its next major move could be to ease rates. The Fed remained concerned,
however, about labor costs and the heated stock market.
- -------------------------------------
U.S. Stock Market
- -------------------------------------
After reacting to a variety of such concerns, the market went to new highs at
the end of the period. The Standard & Poor's 500 Composite Stock Price Index
rose 17.7% in the first six months of 1998 to another record. Despite leadership
from the large company growth stock universe, the market narrowed on faltering
performance among small- and mid-cap stocks. The overall environment for stocks
continued to be very good. The market appeared to be somewhat overvalued by
traditional measures and historical comparisons. The greatest risk could be any
sustained shortfall in corporate earnings.
- -------------------------------------
U.S. Bond Market
- -------------------------------------
The global economic environment remained bond-friendly. The flight of foreign
assets to U.S. Treasury bonds has driven bond prices higher and bond yields
lower than anticipated in the business cycle. Nevertheless, long-term
fundamentals - sound monetary and benign fiscal policies - remained positive for
bonds. Although the U.S. Treasury had less need to borrow, there has been a
surge in corporate bond issuance.
- -------------------------------------
International Markets
- -------------------------------------
As Asian economies continued to falter, Europe enjoyed a modest pick-up with low
inflation. Aided by low interest rates and the establishment of "Euroland,"
European economies seemed to be embarking on an economic expansion. Confidence
was rising in both consumer and corporate sectors. Rising interest rates in the
United Kingdom could slow demand there. The impact of problems in Southeast Asia
remained a major concern. The Japanese yen is weaker, and Japan is struggling to
come up with a credible plan for its banking system. Deteriorating Russian
fundamentals threatened a ruble collapse, extending to currency markets in
Eastern Europe and Latin America.
Sincerely,
David A. Levene Christopher P. Nicholas
Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer President and Chief
Operating Officer

Management's Discussion and Analysis

STATE STREET RESEARCH GROWTH PORTFOLIO
The Portfolio's performance substantially exceeded its Lipper peer group average
(Growth & Income). We continued to focus on growth stocks of large, high-quality
companies, highlighting domestic markets such as consumer retailing and cable
service. Other strong holdings included diversified communications media,
healthcare, supermarkets and drug chains. Approximately one-tenth of the
Portfolio was invested in Europe at the end of the first half, with some of the
best results. We remained under-invested in energy.
Investors have favored stocks exhibiting stable prices and a history of strong
earnings. Our best performing investments have sound operating and financial
fundamentals, domestic market leadership, and improving returns on capital.
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Investment Objective
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
To achieve long-term growth of capital and income and moderate current income.
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Underlying Investments
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Invests primarily in common stocks that are believed to be of good quality or to
have good growth potential or that are considered to be undervalued based on

STATE STREET RESEARCH INCOME PORTFOLIO
The Portfolio's performance substantially exceeded its Lipper peer group average
(Corp. Debt A-Rated) for the first half of 1998, as it has consistently over
periods of 1, 3, 5 and 10 years. We positioned the Portfolio to take advantage
of an anticipated decline in interest rates. Sector selection also was
important, because of the Asian crisis and corporate bond spreads.
The Portfolio was weighted in investment-grade corporates, mortgage and
asset-backed securities, and good individual high-yield bonds. Our non-dollar
holdings, reduced below normal, were kept in industrialized countries. Bond
quality continued to be very high.
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Investment Objective
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
To achieve the highest possible total return, by combining current income with
capital gains, consistent with prudent investment risk and preservation of
capital.
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

STATE STREET RESEARCH MONEY MARKET PORTFOLIO
The Portfolio continued to improve with strong performance above its Lipper peer
group average (Money Market) for the first half of 1998. The Federal Reserve's
target for the Fed Funds rate in the first half year stayed firmly at 5.50%.
Short-term rates remained stable, reflecting the steady policy of the Federal
Reserve Board. The Portfolio's current maturity target is in the 45- to 55- day
range, awaiting a possible change in the targeted rate for Fed Funds.
Low inflation, uncertainty in overseas markets, and an outlook of slow growth
for the U.S. economy suggest the Federal Reserve monetary policy will remain
unchanged for the short term. We continued to invest in high quality instruments
considered to be both stable and liquid.
- ---------------------------------------------------
Investment Objective

To achieve the highest possible current income consistent with preservation of
capital and maintenance of liquidity.

STATE STREET RESEARCH AGGRESSIVE GROWTH PORTFOLIO
Portfolio performance rose near the Lipper peer group average (Capital
Appreciation) during a turbulent six-month period. Technology and energy stocks
were weak. The Southeast Asian economy softened technology demand, while
continuing low oil prices hurt energy. However, the Portfolio was heavily
invested in consumer stocks, such as broadcasting, retailing and services, and
their performance, based on good earnings and prospects, was strong.
Richard J. Jodka, Senior Vice President of State Street Research, became
Portfolio Manager in February 1998. The manager has focused on the stocks of
companies in the $1 - $10 billion asset range which show potential for rapid
growth. Investment strategy is directed toward a reduction in price volatility
and turnover among the Portfolio's holdings and, most importantly, toward
seeking steadily improving long-term results.
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Investment Objective
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
To achieve maximum capital appreciation.
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Underlying Investments
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Invests primarily in common stocks (and equity and debt securities convertible
into or carrying the right to acquire common stocks) of emerging growth
companies, undervalued securities or special situations.

METLIFE STOCK INDEX PORTFOLIO
In the first half of 1998, the Standard and Poor's 500 Index again rose to new
all-time highs. This resulted in a strong gain for the Portfolio which is
designed to track the S&P 500 Index.
Stocks in the S&P 500 Index continued to benefit from favorable economic
conditions in the U.S. and Europe. In the first half of 1998, profits for the
companies in the S&P 500 Index rose, but at a slower pace than in 1997. Strong
consumer demand in the U.S. and rising productivity stemming from investments in
new technology have helped corporate profits. Low inflation and an apparent end
to the federal deficit problem led to lower long-term interest rates in the
second quarter which, in turn, helped boost stock values. Families continuing to
channel retirement savings into equity funds also served to support stock
prices. During the first half of 1998, larger capitalization stocks tended to
perform better than smaller stocks as investors favored the safety and liquidity
of larger companies.
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Investment Objective
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
To equal the performance of the S&P 500 Index, adjusted to assume reinvestment
of dividends.

STATE STREET RESEARCH INTERNATIONAL STOCK PORTFOLIO
The Portfolio improved performance significantly versus its Lipper peer group
(International) during the six-month period. We remained under-invested in Asia
amid a full-blown recession in Japan. The Portfolio benefited from greater
emphasis in Europe where inflation remained subdued and growth accelerated.
The manager favored European stocks that could avoid global pressure. With the
French and German economy expanding, we trimmed overweighting of such
Mediterranean markets as Spain, Italy and Portugal. We maintained an emphasis in
France and bolstered investment in Germany. Stock selection was a major
contributor, with particularly strong results in the United Kingdom and Belgium.
Returns were held back somewhat by under-investment in Finland and stock
selection in Sweden and Australia.

Investment Objective
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
To achieve long-term growth of capital.

LOOMIS SAYLES HIGH YIELD BOND PORTFOLIO
The first six months of 1998 were challenging ones for high yield investors.
After posting solid returns over the first three months, economic and political
turmoil resurfaced throughout Asia and Russia, dampening returns in the second
quarter.
The Portfolio had a disappointing second quarter return of minus 3.93%, which
lagged the 1.68% return of the Merrill Lynch High Yield Index. Year to date, our
Portfolio trailed the index by a slimmer margin, returning 3.2% versus 4.5% for
the benchmark. Despite the recent setback, we remain committed to our current
international exposure as a means of diversifying our Portfolio and adding

JANUS MID CAP PORTFOLIO
Turmoil in Asia once again dominated the marketplace, stirring new fears over a
continued downdraft in the Far East. Additionally, an increase in earnings
disappointments, particularly in semiconductor stocks, rattled equities and sent
stocks lower in May and early June. However, the stock market proved resilient
and shook off these concerns to end the second quarter on a positive note. New
reports of benign inflationary pressures in June prompted a strong rally in the
bond market, where the yield on the 30-year U.S. Treasury bond fell to 5.6%.
This dramatic decline in long-term rates acted as a strong catalyst for equities
which helped stocks move forward at the end of the period.
Looking ahead, we remain optimistic toward domestic equities. Regardless of the
backdrop for equities, we continue to believe in our approach, which emphasizes
companies with low risk relative to their growth rates. Our discipline has not
only produced some solid results for the first six months of 1998, but our
returns have picked up dramatically over the past year--despite a less than
favorable backdrop in small and midsize stocks.

T. ROWE PRICE SMALL CAP GROWTH PORTFOLIO
The Portfolio performance for the first half of 1998 of 5.13% compares favorably
with 5.46% for the Russell 2000 Growth Index. The second quarter of 1998 was
more difficult, as the Portfolio and the respective index performances were all
negative. 1998 has exhibited a very strong market cap effect; across virtually
all segments of the market, as size has increased, so has performance. This
helped us with performance vs. the Russell 2000 as we are slightly larger in
market cap, but hurt vs. the Lipper Index (Small Cap) as our Portfolio is
somewhat smaller than the competition.
The companies in our Portfolio show good fundamental performance. Over the first
six months of 1998, almost 56% of the earnings estimate changes reported by Wall
Street analysts for our holdings have been positive. This compares with only 42%
for the S&P 500.
The companies in the Portfolio are strong (as measured by the estimate revision
performance noted above). The sector needs a catalyst to trigger a sustained
period of outperformance. Small cap growth stocks have historically exhibited a
pronounced pattern of relative performance, and have been in the downward part
of that cycle for the past several years. Predicting when that will turn is very
difficult, and we think a long-term approach to the sector is the best one. The
best case for the sector is a slow-down in earnings posted by the large cap
stocks that have dominated the market. If this happens (which we believe seems
likely) without triggering a panic away from stocks, the possibility increases
that small cap growth stocks will perform well.

Management's Discussion and Analysis

SCUDDER GLOBAL EQUITY PORTFOLIO
The last six months have been strong ones in Europe for several of our themes,
including Savings, Health and "Darkside Restructuring." Performances in all
three themes accelerated as companies delivered news on consolidation efforts,
profitability targets and efforts to increase accounting transparency.
In our "Secure Streams of Income" theme we recently added Lockheed Martin whose
profits are underpinned by an increasing defense budget and a strong internal
efficiency plan. We have also initiated a position in American Greetings whose
long record of success should be enhanced by some new product initiatives.
Investments in the Portfolio's "Emerging Markets" theme have underperformed in
recent months, and since the beginning of the year, our weighting in the
emerging markets has dropped slightly. While these investments are in the
riskier end of the risk-reward spectrum, we remind ourselves that it is only
here that the huge amounts of industrialized country wealth that are being
generated today can be absorbed.
- ----------------------------------------------
Investment Objective
- ----------------------------------------------
To achieve long-term growth of capital through a diversified portfolio of
marketable securities, primarily equity securities, including common stocks,
preferred stocks, and debt securities convertible into common stocks.
- ----------------------------------------------
Underlying Investments
- ----------------------------------------------
Invests on a worldwide basis in equity securities of companies which are
incorporated in the U.S. or in foreign countries. The Portfolio may also invest
in the debt securities of U.S. and foreign issuers. Income is an incidental
consideration.

1. Significant The Metropolitan Series Fund, Inc. ("Fund") is registered
Accounting under the Investment Company Act of 1940 as an open end
Policies investment company. All of the portfolios of the Fund are
diversified as defined under securities laws. The following
is a summary of significant accounting policies consistently
followed by the Fund in the preparation of its financial
statements. The policies are in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles.
-----------------------------------------------------------
A. Investment Security Valuation: Portfolio securities that are
traded on domestic stock exchanges are valued at the last
price as of the close of business on the day the securities
are being valued, or, lacking any sales, at the mean between
closing bid and asked prices (except for the Loomis Sayles
High Yield Portfolio, which in the latter case would value
such securities at the last bid price). Securities trading
primarily on non-domestic exchanges are valued at the
preceding closing price on the exchange where it primarily
trades (or, in the case of the Loomis Sayles High Yield Bond
and Scudder Global Equity Portfolios, the last sale). A
security that is listed or traded on more than one exchange
is valued at the quotation on the exchange determined to be
the primary market for that security by the Board of
Directors or its delegates. If no closing price is
available, then such securities are valued by using the mean
between the last current bid and asked prices or, second, by
using the last available closing price (except for the
Scudder Global Equity Portfolio which second values such
securities at the last current bid, and third by using the
last available price). Domestic securities traded in the
over-the-counter market are valued at the mean between the
bid and asked prices or yield equivalent as obtained from
two or more dealers that make markets in the securities
(except for the Loomis Sayles High Yield Bond Portfolio,
which, in the latter case, would value such security at the
last bid price; or the Scudder Global Equity Portfolio which
would value such security first at the last sale, and second
at the bid price). All non-U.S. securities traded in the
over-the-counter securities market are valued at the last
sale quote, if market quotations are available, or the last
closing bid price, if there is no active trading in a
particular security for a given day. Where market quotations
are not readily available for such non-domestic
over-the-counter securities, then such securities will be
valued in good faith by a method that the Board of
Directors, or its delegates, believe accurately reflects
fair value. Portfolio securities which are traded both in
the over-the-counter market and on a stock exchange are
valued according to the broadest and most representative
market, and it is expected that for debt securities this
ordinarily will be the over-the-counter market. Securities
and assets for which market quotations are not readily
available (e.g. certain long-term bonds and notes) are
valued at fair value as determined in good faith by or under
the direction of the Board of Directors of the Fund,
including valuations furnished by a pricing service retained
for this purpose and typically utilized by other
institutional-sized trading organizations. Forward foreign
currency exchange contracts are valued based on the closing
prices of the forward currency contract rates in the London
foreign exchange markets on a daily basis as provided by a
reliable bank or dealer. Short-term instruments with a
remaining maturity of sixty days or less are valued
utilizing the amortized cost method of valuation. If for any
reason the fair value of any security is not fairly
reflected by such method, such security will be valued by
the same methods as securities having a maturity of more
than sixty days.
Options, whether on securities, indices, or futures
contracts, are valued at the last sales price available as
of the close of business on the day of valuation or, if no
sale, at the mean between the bid and asked prices. Options
on currencies are valued at the spot price each day. As a
general matter, futures contracts are marked-to-market
daily. The value of futures contracts will be the sum of the
margin deposit plus or minus the difference between the
value of the futures contract on each day the net asset
value is calculated and the value on the date the futures
contract originated, value being that established on a
recognized commodity exchange, or by reference to other
customary sources, with gain or loss being realized when the
futures contract closes or expires.
------------------------------------------------------------
B. Investment Security Transactions: Security transactions are
recorded on the trade date. Securities denominated in
foreign currencies are translated at exchange rates
prevailing on the respective dates traded. Dividend income
is recorded on the ex-dividend date or, for certain foreign
securities, when notified; interest income is accrued as
earned. Transactions denominated in foreign currencies are
recorded at the rate prevailing when earned or incurred.
Realized gains and losses on investments and unrealized
appreciation and depreciation are determined on the
identified cost basis, which is the same basis used for
federal income tax purposes. Asset and liability accounts
that are denominated in foreign currencies are adjusted to
reflect current exchange rates prevailing on the respective
dates traded.
------------------------------------------------------------
C. Federal Income Taxes: It is the Fund's policy to comply with
the requirements of the Internal Revenue Code and
regulations thereunder applicable to regulated investment
companies and to distribute all of its taxable income to
shareholders. Therefore, no Federal income tax provision is
required. At December 31, 1997, the State Street Research
Income, State Street Research International Stock, and
T. Rowe Price Small Cap Growth Portfolios had available for
federal income tax purposes unused capital loss carryovers
of approximately $29,822, $7,097,000, and $69,489,
respectively, which will expire on December 31, 2005, on
December 31, 2004, and on December 31, 2005, respectively.
------------------------------------------------------------
D. Return of Capital Distributions: The Fund distributes all of
its taxable income, both net realized gains and net
investment income, to shareholders. Effective January 1,
1994 the Fund adopted Statement of Position 93-2:
Determination, Disclosure, and Financial Statement
Presentation of Income, Capital Gain, and Return of Capital
Distributions by Investment Companies. As a result, the Fund
changed the classification of distributions to shareholders
to better disclose the differences between financial
statement amounts and distributions determined in accordance
with income tax regulations.
The State Street Research Aggressive Growth Portfolio
incurred net investment losses of $1,338,007 during 1996 and
$1,659,985 during 1997, which has been reclassified to
paid-in-capital at December 31, 1996 and December 31, 1997,
respectively.
------------------------------------------------------------
E. Forward Foreign Currency Exchange Contracts: A forward
foreign currency exchange contract is an agreement between
two parties to buy or sell a specific currency for a set
price on a future date. The Fund may enter into forward
foreign currency exchange contracts to hedge security
transactions on holdings denominated in a foreign currency.
Should foreign currency exchange rates move unexpectedly,
the Fund may not achieve the anticipated benefits of the
forward foreign currency exchange contracts and may realize
a loss. The use of forward foreign currency exchange
contracts involves the risk of imperfect correlation in
movements in the price of the underlying hedged assets and
foreign currency exchange rates. During the period that a
contract is open, changes in the value of the contract are
recognized as an unrealized gain or loss by "marking to
market" on a daily basis. A realized gain or loss will be
recognized when a contract is completed or canceled.

1. Significant F. Repurchase Agreements: The Fund requires the custodian to
Accounting take possession, to have legally segregated in the Federal
Policies- Reserve Book Entry System, or to have segregated within the
(Cont.) custodian's vault, all securities held as collateral for
repurchase agreements. The market value of the underlying
securities is required to be at least 102% of the resale
price at the time of purchase. If the seller of the
agreement defaults, and the value of the collateral
declines, or if the seller enters an insolvency proceeding,
realization of the value of the collateral by the Fund may
be delayed or limited.
------------------------------------------------------------
G. Estimates and Assumptions: The preparation of financial
statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting
principals requires management to make estimates and
assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and
liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and
liabilities as of the date of the financial statements and
the reported amounts of income and expenses during the
reporting period. Actual results could differ from those
estimates.
------------------------------------------------------------
2. Restricted The State Street Research Income Portfolio holds sixteen
and Illiquid securities, the State Street Research Money Market Portfolio
Securities holds one security, the State and Research Diversified
Portfolio holds nineteen securities, the State Street
Research International Stock Portfolio holds three
securities, and the Loomis Sayles High Yield Bond
Portfolio holds thirty-three securities that were purchased
in private placement transactions. These securities may be
resold in transactions exempt from registration or to the
public if the securities are registered. The sale of these
securities may involve lengthy negotiations and additional
expense. These constraints may affect the security's
marketability, and therefore hinder prompt disposal at an
acceptable price. The Fund intends to invest no more than
15% of net assets in illiquid and restricted securities,
except for the State Street Research Money Market Portfolio
and the Scudder Global Equity Portfolio where the
restriction is 10% of net assets. Restricted securities
(including Rule 144A issues) held at June 30, 1998 are
footnoted at the end of each applicable Portfolio's schedule
of investments.
------------------------------------------------------------
3. Expenses A. Investment Management Agreements: The Fund has entered into
investment management agreements with Metropolitan Life. For

------------------------------------------------------------
B. Investment Management Fee Waiver: Metropolitan Life has
agreed to waive a portion of its investment management fee
for the Scudder Global Equity Portfolio during the first
year of the Portfolio's operations. For the first six
months, the waiver equaled .35% of the average daily value
of the aggregate net assets of the Portfolio up to $50
million, .175% of such assets on the next $50 million, .15%
of such assets on the next $400 million and .1375% of such
assets on amounts in excess of $500 million. During the

of the investment management fee is equal to .175% of assets
up to $50 million, .0875% of assets on the next $50 million,
.075% of assets on the next $400 million and .06875% of such

------------------------------------------------------------
C. Subsidization of Portfolios: Metropolitan Life has agreed to
subsidize all expenses, excluding those listed below, in
excess of .20% of the net assets of Loomis Sayles High Yield
Bond Portfolio, Janus Mid Cap Portfolio, T. Rowe Price Small
Cap Growth Portfolio, and Scudder Global Equity Portfolio.
Subsidization will continue until either each Portfolio's
total net assets are at least $100 million, or March 2,
1999, whichever is earlier. Subsidization ceased on December
31, 1997 for the Janus Mid Cap Portfolio, and on January 22,
1998 for the T. Rowe Price Small Cap Growth Portfolio when
each Portfolio exceeded the $100 million threshold. Expenses
excluded from subsidization are: investment management fees
payable to Metropolitan Life, brokerage commissions on
portfolio transactions (including any other direct costs
related to the acquisition, disposition, lending or
borrowing of portfolio investments), taxes payable by the
Fund, interest and other costs related to borrowings by the
Fund, and any extraordinary or non-recurring expenses (such
as legal claims and liabilities and litigation costs and any
indemnification related thereto).
Prior to May 16, 1993, Metropolitan Life was obligated to
pay all expenses of each Portfolio of the Fund that was in
operation at that time. Since that date, the Fund has been
obligated to pay all of its own expenses (except as outlined
in the preceding paragraph). However, Metropolitan Life
reserves the right, at its sole discretion, to pay all or a
portion of the expenses of the Fund or any of its
Portfolios, and to terminate such voluntary payment at any
time upon notice to the Board of Directors and affected
shareholders of the Fund.

5. New Portfolios On March 3, 1997, the Fund commenced operations of four
additional Portfolios: Loomis Sayles High Yield Bond
Portfolio, Janus Mid Cap Portfolio, T. Rowe Price Small Cap
Growth Portfolio, and Scudder Global Equity Portfolio.
Metropolitan Life supplied initial start-up capital of
$22,000,000 to facilitate the operation of these Portfolios.

shares of the Loomis Sayles High Yield Bond Portfolio,
500,000 shares of the Janus Mid Cap Portfolio, 500,000
shares of the T. Rowe Price Small Cap Growth Portfolio, and
1,000,000 shares of the Scudder Global Equity Portfolio,
with each Portfolio valued at $10 per share. Subsequently,
these Portfolios were made available for certain contracts.
As of June 30, 1998, all start-up capital for the four
Portfolios introduced in 1997 (including applicable market
appreciation) has been redeemed by Metropolitan Life.
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
6. Portfolio On March 3, 1997, the names of the Growth Portfolio, Income
Name Changes Portfolio, Money Market Portfolio, Diversified Portfolio,
Aggressive Growth Portfolio, Stock Index Portfolio, and
International Stock Portfolio changed. These Portfolios were
renamed as follows: State Street Research Growth Portfolio,

Portfolio, State Street Research Diversified Portfolio,
State Street Research Aggressive Growth Portfolio, MetLife
Stock Index Portfolio, and GFM International Stock
Portfolio. Subsequently, on August 1, 1997, the names of the
MetLife Money Market Portfolio and GFM International Stock
Portfolio were changed to the State Street Research Money
Market Portfolio and the State Street Research International
Stock Portfolio, respectively.
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
7. Securities On December 15, 1997, the Fund entered into a securities
Lending lending arrangement with the Fund's custodian, State Street
Bank and Trust Co. ("the custodian"). Under the agreement,
the custodian is authorized to loan securities on the Fund's
behalf. In exchange, the Fund receives collateral against
the loaned securities. Each Portfolio receives collateral at
least equal to 102% of the market value of the loaned
securities (105% for foreign securities), at each loan's
inception. Collateral must be maintained at least at 100% of
the market value of the loaned securities for the duration
of the loan. The collateral is invested in the Navigator
Securities Lending Prime Portfolio, which invests in a
variety of high quality U.S. dollar-denominated instruments.
The Fund receives 70% of the annual net income from lending
transactions, which is included in interest income of the
respective Portfolios. The Fund bears the risk of any
deficiency in the amount of collateral available for return
to a borrower due to a loss in an approved investment.
Portfolios with outstanding loans at June 30, 1998 are
footnoted at the end of each applicable Portfolio's schedule
of investments.
