SUNAMERICA MONEY MARKET FUND
THE SUNAMERICA CENTER, 733 THIRD AVENUE, NEW YORK, NY 10017-3204
GENERAL MARKETING AND SHAREHOLDER INFORMATION
(800) 858-8850
SunAmerica Money Market Fund (the "Fund") seeks as high a level of current
income as is consistent with liquidity and stability of capital by investing
in a portfolio of high quality, short-term money market instruments. The Fund
is the only series of SunAmerica Money Market Funds, Inc., an open-end diver-
sified management investment company organized as a Maryland corporation (the
"Corporation"). The Fund is advised by SunAmerica Asset Management Corp. (the
"Adviser").
The Fund seeks to maintain a stable net asset value of $1.00 per share, al-
though no assurance can be given that the Fund will be able to do so. An in-
vestment in the Fund is neither insured nor guaranteed by the U.S. Government
or any other entity.
The Fund currently offers Class A, Class B and Class C shares. The offering
price is the next-determined net asset value per share, plus for Class B and
Class C shares only, a contingent deferred sales charge ("CDSC"). For Class B
shares, a CDSC may be imposed on certain redemptions made within six years of
purchase; for Class C shares, a CDSC may be imposed on redemptions made within
one year of purchase. Class B shares of the Fund automatically convert to
Class A shares on the first business day of the month following the seventh
anniversary of the issuance of such Class B shares. At such time, the
converted shares will no longer be subject to a distribution fee. Each class
makes account maintenance and service fee payments, and Class B and C shares
also make distribution fee payments under a plan pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under
the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "1940 Act"). Investors
wishing to purchase shares of the Fund are generally required to purchase
Class A shares. Class B and Class C shares will be typically issued upon an
exchange of Class B and Class C shares, respectively, from another mutual fund
in the SunAmerica Family of Mutual Funds. See "Purchase of Shares."
Shares of the Fund are not deposits or obligations of, or guaranteed or en-
dorsed by, any bank through which such shares may be sold, and are not feder-
ally insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, the Federal Reserve
Board, or any other agency.
This Prospectus explains concisely what you should know before investing in
the Fund. Please read it carefully and retain it for future reference. You can
find more detailed information about the Fund in the Statement of Additional
Information dated May 1, 1998, which is incorporated by reference into this
Prospectus and further information about the performance of the Fund in the
Corporation's Annual Report to Shareholders. The Statement of Additional In-
formation and Annual Report to Shareholders may be obtained without charge by
contacting the Corporation at the address or telephone number listed above.

(1) Investors wishing to purchase shares of the Fund are generally
required to purchase Class A shares. Class B and Class C shares of the
Fund will typically be issued in exchange for Class B shares or Class C
shares, respectively, of other mutual funds in the SunAmerica Family of
Mutual Funds.
(2) The CDSC on Class B shares applies only if a redemption occurs within
six years from their purchase date. The CDSC on Class C shares applies
only to redemptions made within one year of purchase.
(3) A $15.00 fee may be imposed for wire redemptions.
(4) The information provided for Class A and Class B shares is based on
data for the fiscal year ended December 31, 1997. The information
provided for Class C shares is based on data for the period October 2,
1997 (commencement of operations for Class C shares) through December
31, 1997.
(5) 0.15% of the 12b-1 fee comprises an Account Maintenance and Service
Fee. A portion of the Account Maintenance and Service Fee is allocated
to member firms of the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc.
for continuous personal service by such members to investors in the
Fund, such as responding to shareholder inquiries, providing current
marketing material and attending to other shareholder matters. Class B
and Class C shareholders who own shares for an extended period of time
may pay more in Rule 12b-1 distribution fees than the economic
equivalent of the maximum front-end sales charge permitted under the
Conduct Rules of the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc.
(6) For the period October 2, 1997 (commencement of operations for Class C
shares) through December 31, 1997, the Other Expenses and Total
Operating Expenses (on a gross basis) for Class C shares were 4.82% and
6.22%, respectively.
(7) For the fiscal year ended December 31, 1997, the Total Operating
Expenses for Class A and Class B shares reflect the effect of a gross up
of transfer agent expense credits of 0.02%, respectively.

INVESTMENT OBJECTIVE AND POLICIES
The investment objective of the Fund is to seek as high a level of current
income as is consistent with liquidity and stability of capital through
investment primarily in high quality money market instruments. There can be no
assurance that the investment objective of the Fund will be achieved.
Except as specifically indicated, the investment policies and strategies
described herein are not fundamental policies of the Fund and may be changed
by the Board of Directors ("Directors") without the approval of shareholders.
The Fund's investment objective and fundamental investment restrictions,
however, may not be changed without the approval of shareholders of the Fund.
See "Investment Restrictions."
The Fund will seek to achieve its investment objective by investing in a
diversified portfolio of money market instruments, including: (i) securities
issued or guaranteed as to principal and interest by the U.S. government, its
agencies or instrumentalities; (ii) certificates of deposit, bankers'
acceptances and time deposits; (iii) commercial paper and other short-term
obligations of U.S. and foreign corporations; (iv) repurchase agreements; (v)
reverse repurchase agreements; and (vi) asset-backed securities. The Fund
seeks to maintain a constant net asset value of $1.00 per share. To do so, the
Fund pursuant to Rule 2a-7 uses the amortized cost method of valuation in
computing its current share price under the 1940 Act. See "Determination of
Net Asset Value." In addition, the Fund complies with the quality,
diversification and maturity requirements set forth in such rule. See the
Statement of Additional Information for a discussion regarding these
requirements.
See the Appendix and the Statement of Additional Information for further
information regarding the types of securities in which the Fund may invest.
INVESTMENT RESTRICTIONS
The Fund has adopted certain fundamental policies designed to maintain the
diversity of its portfolio and reduce investment risk. With respect to 75% of
the Fund's total assets, the Fund may not invest more than 5% of its assets in
the securities of any one issuer (other than obligations of the U.S.
government, its agencies and instrumentalities) or purchase more than 10% of
an issuer's voting securities or more than 10% of any class of an issuer's
outstanding securities. The Fund may not purchase securities if as a result of
such purchase more than 25% of the Fund's total assets would be invested in
any one industry, except that the Fund may invest without limit in obligations
issued or guaranteed by the U.S. government, its agencies and
instrumentalities. In addition, the Fund reserves freedom of action to invest
in obligations issued by domestic branches of U.S. banks. As a fundamental
policy, the Fund may borrow up to 10% of its total assets for temporary or
emergency purposes. The Fund may also pledge its assets to secure such
borrowings. See the Statement of Additional Information for information
concerning other fundamental policies.
MANAGEMENT OF THE CORPORATION
DIRECTORS. The Directors of the Corporation are responsible for the overall
supervision of the operation of the Corporation and the Fund and perform
various duties imposed on directors of investment companies by the 1940 Act
and by the State of Maryland.
THE ADVISER. The Adviser selects and manages the investments of the Fund,
provides various administrative services and supervises the Fund's daily
business affairs, subject to general review by the Directors. The Adviser is
an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of SunAmerica Inc. ("SunAmerica"), an
investment-grade financial services company which, as of March 31, 1998 held
approximately $55 billion in assets. SunAmerica's principal executive offices
are located at 1 SunAmerica Center, Los Angeles, CA 90067-6022. In addition to
serving as adviser to the Fund, the Adviser serves as adviser, manager and/or
administrator for Anchor Pathway Fund, Anchor Series Trust, Seasons Series
Trust, Style Select Series, Inc., SunAmerica Equity Funds, SunAmerica Income
Funds and SunAmerica Series Trust. The Adviser managed, advised and/or
administered assets of approximately $14.5 billion as of March 31, 1998 for
investment companies, individuals, pension accounts, and corporate and trust
accounts.
Pursuant to the Investment Advisory and Management Agreement entered into
between the Adviser and the Corporation, on behalf of the Fund, the Fund pays
the Adviser a fee, payable monthly, computed daily at the annual rate of 0.50%
on the first $600 million of the Fund's average daily net assets, 0.45% on the
next $900 million of net assets and 0.40% on net assets over $1.5 billion for
the services performed
5
<PAGE>
on behalf of the Fund and the facilities furnished by the Adviser. For the
fiscal year ended December 31, 1997, the Fund paid the Adviser a fee equal to
0.50% of the average daily net assets of the Fund.
PORTFOLIO MANAGEMENT. The Fixed-Income Investment Team composed of P.
Christopher Leary, John J. DiVito and Brian H. Wiese is responsible for the
management of the Fund. Mr. Leary is an Executive Vice President of the
Adviser and has served as portfolio manager of the Fund since August 1995. Mr.
DiVito, an Assistant Vice President of the Adviser, has served as co-portfolio
manager of the Fund since July 1997. Mr. Wiese is an Assistant Portfolio
Manager of the Adviser and has assisted in the management of the Fund since
April 1998.
THE DISTRIBUTOR. SunAmerica Capital Services, Inc. (the "Distributor"), an
indirect wholly owned subsidiary of SunAmerica, acts as distributor of the
shares of the Fund pursuant to the Distribution Agreement between the
Distributor and the Corporation on behalf of the Fund. The Distributor and
other broker-dealers pay commissions to salespersons, as well as the cost of
printing and mailing prospectuses to potential investors and of any
advertising expenses incurred by them in connection with their distribution of
Fund shares.
Certain laws and regulations limit the ability of banks and other depository
institutions to underwrite and distribute securities. However, in the opinion
of the Adviser based upon the advice of counsel, these laws and regulations do
not prohibit such depository institutions from providing other services to
investment companies of the type contemplated by the Distribution Plans (as
described below). The Directors will consider appropriate modifications to the
operations of the Fund, including discontinuance of payments under the
Distribution Plans to banks and other depository institutions, in the event
such institutions can no longer provide the services called for under their
agreements. Banks and other financial services firms may be subject to various
state laws regarding the services described, and may be required to register
as dealers pursuant to state law.
DISTRIBUTION PLANS. Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act permits an investment
company directly or indirectly to pay expenses associated with the
distribution of its shares ("distribution expenses") in accordance with a plan
adopted by the investment company's board of directors and approved by its
shareholders. Pursuant to such rule, the Directors and the shareholders of
each class of shares of the Fund have adopted distribution plans hereinafter
referred to as the "Class A Plan," "Class B Plan," and the "Class C Plan," and
collectively as the "Distribution Plans." In adopting each Distribution Plan,
the Directors determined that there was a reasonable likelihood that each such
Plan would benefit the Fund and the shareholders of the respective class. The
respective sales charges and distribution fees of the Class B shares and Class
C shares will not be used to subsidize the sale of shares of any other class.
Under the Class B and Class C Plans, the Distributor may receive payments
from the Fund at the annual rate of up to 0.75% of the average daily net
assets of the Fund's Class B and Class C shares, respectively, to compensate
the Distributor and certain securities firms for providing sales and
promotional activities for distributing each such class of shares. The
distribution costs for which the Distributor may be reimbursed out of such
distribution fees include fees paid to broker-dealers that have sold Fund
shares, commissions, and other expenses such as those incurred for sales
literature, prospectus printing and distribution and compensation to
wholesalers. It is possible that in any given year the amount paid to the
Distributor under the Class B or Class C Plan may exceed the Distributor's
distribution costs as described above. The Class A Plan does not provide for a
distribution fee. The Distribution Plans provide that each respective class of
shares of the Fund may also pay the Distributor an account maintenance and
service fee of up to 0.15% of the aggregate average daily net assets of such
class of shares for payments to broker-dealers for providing continuing
account maintenance. In this regard, some payments are used to compensate
broker-dealers with account maintenance and service fees in an amount up to
0.15% per year of the net assets maintained in the Fund by their customers.
For the fiscal year ended December 31, 1997, under the Class A Plan, the
Fund paid the Distributor a fee equal to 0.15% of Class A's average daily net
assets. For the same period, under the Class B Plan, the Fund paid the
Distributor a fee equal to 0.90% of Class B's average daily net assets. For
the period October 2, 1997 (commencement of operations for Class C shares)
through December 31, 1997, under the Class C Plans, the Fund paid the
Distributor a fee equal to 0.90% of Class C's average daily net assets.
ADMINISTRATOR. The Corporation has entered into a Service Agreement under
the terms of which
6
<PAGE>
SunAmerica Fund Services, Inc. ("SAFS"), an indirect wholly owned subsidiary
of SunAmerica, assists the transfer agent in providing shareholder services.
Pursuant to the Service Agreement, SAFS receives a fee from the Fund,
calculated and payable monthly, at an annual rate of 0.22% of average daily
net assets. See the Statement of Additional Information for further
information.
PURCHASE OF SHARES
GENERAL. Shares of the Fund are sold at net asset value per share, plus for
Class B and Class C shares only, a deferred sales charge. The Fund seeks to
maintain a stable net asset value per share of $1.00, although no assurance
can be given that the Fund will be able to do so.
The minimum initial investment in the Fund is $1,000 and the minimum
subsequent investment is $100. However, for (i) wrap or certain other advisory
accounts for the benefit of clients of broker-dealers, financial institutions,
registered investment advisers or financial planners adhering to certain
standards established by the Distributor, and (ii) Individual Retirement
Accounts (IRAs), Keogh Plan accounts and accounts for other qualified plans,
the minimum initial investment is $250 and minimum subsequent investment is
$25.
Investors purchasing shares of the Fund are generally required to purchase
Class A shares, since there is no sales charge or distribution fee. Class B
and Class C shares are typically intended to be purchased in connection with
exchanges of Class B or Class C shares, respectively, from other funds in the
SunAmerica Family of Mutual Funds. Dealers may receive different levels of
compensation depending on which class of shares they sell.
Upon making an investment in shares of the Fund, an open account will be
established under which shares of the Fund and additional shares acquired
through reinvestment of dividends and distributions will be held for each
shareholder's account by State Street Bank and Trust Company ("State Street")
and its affiliate, National Financial Data Services ("NFDS") (collectively,
the "Transfer Agent"). Shareholders will not be issued certificates for their
shares. Shareholders receive regular statements from the Transfer Agent that
report each transaction affecting their accounts. Further information may be
obtained by calling Shareholder/Dealer Services at (800) 858-8850.
CLASS A SHARES. Class A shares are offered at net asset value. No sales
charge is imposed on purchases or redemptions of Class A shares; provided,
however, that shareholders who purchased their Class A shares of the Fund
through an exchange from another fund in the SunAmerica Family of Mutual Funds
without an initial sales charge on the original purchase because such purchase
was in excess of $1 million, will remain subject to the 1% CDSC applicable to
such redemptions. See "Exchange Privilege."
CLASS B SHARES. Class B shares are offered at net asset value. Certain
redemptions of Class B shares within the first six years of the date of
purchase are subject to a CDSC. The charge is assessed on an amount equal to
the lesser of the then-current market value or the purchase price of the
shares being redeemed. No charge is assessed on shares derived from
reinvestment of dividends or capital gains distributions. In determining
whether the CDSC is applicable to a redemption, the calculation is determined
in the manner that results in the lowest possible rate being charged.
Therefore, it is assumed that the redemption is first of any shares of a class
other than Class B that are not themselves subject to a CDSC, second of any
shares in the shareholder's Fund account that are not subject to a CDSC (i.e.,
shares representing reinvested dividends and distributions), third of shares
held for more than six years and fourth of such shares held the longest during
the six-year period. The amount of the CDSC, if any, will vary depending on
the number of years from the time of payment for the purchase of Fund shares
until the time of redemption of such shares. Solely for purposes of
determining the number of years from the time of any payment for the purchase
of shares, all payments during a month are aggregated and deemed to have been
made on the first day of the month. The following table sets forth the rates
of the CDSC.

Shareholders of the Fund that acquired their Class B shares pursuant to a
reorganization effected with another SunAmerica mutual fund will remain
subject to the terms of the CDSC in effect for the previous fund at the time
of such reorganization. For additional information, see "Additional
Information Regarding Purchase of Shares" in the Statement of Additional
Information.
Conversion Feature--Class B Shares. Class B shares (including a pro rata
portion of the Class B shares purchased through the reinvestment of dividends
and distributions) will convert automatically to Class A shares on the first
business day of the month following the seventh anniversary of the issuance of
such Class B shares. Class B shares of the Fund issued upon an exchange of
Class B shares of another SunAmerica Mutual Fund will convert into Class A
shares of the Fund on the first business day of the month following the
seventh anniversary of the issuance of the original Class B shares. Subsequent
to the conversion of a Class B share to a Class A share, such share will no
longer be subject to the higher distribution fee of Class B shares. Such
conversion will be on the basis of the relative net asset values of Class B
shares and Class A shares, without the imposition of any sales load, fee or
charge.
CLASS C SHARES. Class C shares are offered at net asset value. Certain
redemptions of Class C shares within the first year of the date of purchase
are subject to a CDSC of 1%. The method for calculating any such CDSC will be
the same method used for calculating the CDSC for Class B shares. See "Class B
Shares" above.
WAIVER OF CDSC. The CDSC applicable to Class B and Class C shares will be
waived, subject to certain conditions, in connection with redemptions which
are: (a) requested within one year of the death of the shareholder of an
individual account or of a joint tenant where the surviving joint tenant is
the deceased's spouse; (b) requested within one year after the shareholder of
an individual account or a joint tenant on a spousal joint tenant account
becomes disabled; (c) taxable distributions or loans to participants made by
qualified retirement plans or retirement accounts (not including rollovers)
for which the Adviser serves as a fiduciary (e.g., prepares all necessary tax
reporting documents); provided that, in the case of a taxable distribution,
the plan participant or accountholder has attained the age of 59 1/2 at the
time the redemption is made; (d) made pursuant to a Systematic Withdrawal
Plan, up to a maximum amount of 12% per year from a shareholder account based
on the value of the account at the time the Plan is established, provided,
however, that all dividends and capital gains distributions are reinvested in
Fund shares; and (e) made of shares in accounts consisting of assets which
were originally individually managed by the Adviser and had paid an investment
advisory fee to the Adviser. See the Statement of Additional Information for
further information concerning conditions with respect to (a) and (b) above.
Other CDSC Information. For Federal income tax purposes, the amount of the
CDSC will reduce the amount realized on the redemption of shares,
concomitantly reducing gain or increasing loss. For information on the
imposition and waiver of the CDSC contact Shareholder/Dealer Services at (800)
858-8850.
ASSET PROTECTION PLAN (OPTIONAL). Anchor National Life Insurance Company
(the "Life Company"), an affiliate of the Adviser and the Distributor, offers
an Asset Protection Plan to certain investors in the Fund. The benefits of
this optional term life insurance (payable on the death of the insured) will
relate to the amounts paid to purchase Fund shares and to the value of the
Fund shares held for the benefit of the insured persons. However, to the
extent such purchased shares are redeemed prior to death, coverage with
respect to such shares will terminate.
Purchasers of the Asset Protection Plan are required to authorize periodic
redemptions of Fund shares to pay the premiums for such coverage. Such
redemptions will not be subject to CDSCs, but will have the same tax
consequences as any other Fund redemptions.
The Asset Protection Plan will be available to eligible persons who enroll
for the coverage within a limited time period after shares in the Fund are
initially purchased or transferred. In addition, coverage cannot be made
available unless the Life Company knows for whose benefit shares are
purchased. For instance, coverage cannot be made available for shares
registered in the name of your broker unless the broker provides the Life
Company with information regarding the beneficial owners of such shares. In
addition, coverage is available only to shares purchased on behalf of natural
persons under the age of 75 years; coverage is not available with respect to
shares purchased for a retirement account.
8
<PAGE>
Other restrictions on the coverage apply. This coverage may not be available
in all states and may be subject to additional restrictions or limitations.
Purchasers of shares should also make themselves familiar with the impact on
the Asset Protection Plan coverage of purchasing additional shares,
reinvestment of dividends and capital gains distributions and redemptions.
Please call (800) 858-8850 for more information, including the cost of the
Asset Protection Plan option.
ADDITIONAL PURCHASE INFORMATION. All purchases are confirmed to each
shareholder. The Corporation and the Distributor reserve the right to reject
any purchase order and may at any time discontinue the sale of any class of
shares of the Fund.
Shares of the Fund may be purchased through SAFS, by check or federal funds
wire and through a pre-authorized check investment program.
Checks should be made payable to the Fund or to "SunAmerica Funds." If the
payment is for a retirement plan account for which the Adviser serves as
fiduciary, please indicate on the check that payment is for such an account.
Payments to open new accounts should be mailed to SunAmerica Fund Services,
Inc., Mutual Fund Operations, The SunAmerica Center, 733 Third Avenue, New
York, New York 10017-3204, together with a completed New Account Application.
Payment for subsequent purchases should be mailed to SunAmerica Fund Services,
Inc., c/o NFDS, P.O. Box 419373, Kansas City, Missouri 64141-6373 and the
shareholder's Fund account number should appear on the check. For fiduciary
retirement plan accounts, both initial and subsequent purchases should be
mailed to SunAmerica Fund Services, Inc., Mutual Fund Operations, The
SunAmerica Center, 733 Third Avenue, New York, New York 10017-3204. SAFS
reserves the right to reject any check made payable other than in the manner
indicated above. Under certain circumstances, the Fund will accept a multi-
party check (e.g., a check made payable to the shareholder by another party
and then endorsed by the shareholder to the Fund in payment for the purchase
of shares); however, the processing of such a check may be subject to a delay.
The Fund does not verify the authenticity of the endorsement of such multi-
party check, and acceptance of the check by the Fund should not be considered
verification thereof. Neither the Fund nor its affiliates will be held liable
for any losses incurred as a result of a fraudulent endorsement.
Since the Fund will be investing in instruments that normally require
immediate payment in Federal Funds (monies credited to a bank's account with
its regional Federal Reserve Bank), the Fund has adopted procedures for the
convenience of its shareholders and to ensure that it receives funds that can
be invested. Orders for purchases of shares received by wire transfer in the
form of Federal Funds will be effected at the next-determined net asset value
if received at or prior to the Fund's close of business. Orders for purchases
accompanied by check or other negotiable bank draft will be accepted and
effected as of the Fund's close of business on the next business day following
receipt of such order. Shares will be entitled to receive a dividend, if any,
commencing on the next business day after the day the purchase is effected.
See "Additional Information Regarding Purchase of Shares" in the Statement
of Additional Information for more information regarding these services, the
procedures involved and when orders are deemed to be received.
REDEMPTION OF SHARES
Shares of the Fund may be redeemed at any time at their net asset value
next-determined, less any applicable CDSC (Class B and Class C shares only),
after receipt by the Fund of a redemption request in proper form. See
"Dividends, Distributions and Taxes."
REGULAR REDEMPTION. Shareholders may redeem their shares by sending a
written request to SAFS, Mutual Fund Operations, The SunAmerica Center, 733
Third Avenue, New York, NY 10017-3204. All written requests for redemption
must be endorsed by the shareholder(s) with signature(s) guaranteed by an
"eligible guarantor institution" which includes: banks, brokers, dealers,
credit unions, securities and exchange associations, clearing agencies and
savings associations. Guarantees must be signed by an authorized signatory of
the eligible guarantor and the words "Signature Guaranteed"
9
<PAGE>
must appear with the signature. Signature guarantees by notaries will not be
accepted. SAFS may request further documentation from corporations, executors,
administrators, trustees or guardians.
REPURCHASE THROUGH THE DISTRIBUTOR. The Distributor is authorized, as agent
for the Fund, to offer to repurchase shares which are presented by telephone
to the Distributor by investment dealers. Orders received by dealers must be
at least $500. The repurchase price is the net asset value per share of the
applicable class of shares of the Fund next-determined after the repurchase
order is received, less any applicable CDSC (Class B and Class C shares only).
Repurchase orders received by the Distributor after the Fund's close of
business, will be priced based on the next business day's close. Dealers may
charge for their services in connection with the repurchase, but neither the
Fund nor the Distributor imposes any such service charge. The offer to
repurchase may be suspended at any time, as described below.
TELEPHONE REDEMPTION. The Corporation accepts telephone requests for
redemption of shares with a value of less than $100,000. The proceeds of a
telephone redemption may be sent by wire to the shareholder's bank account as
set forth in the New Account Application or in a subsequent written
authorization. Shareholders utilizing the redemption through the electronic
funds transfer method will incur a $15.00 transaction fee. The Corporation
will employ reasonable procedures to confirm that instructions communicated by
telephone are genuine. Failure to do so may result in liability to the
Corporation for losses incurred due to unauthorized or fraudulent telephone
instructions. Such procedures include, but are not limited to, requiring some
form of personal identification prior to acting upon instructions received by
telephone and/or tape recording of telephone instructions.
A shareholder making a telephone redemption should call Shareholder/Dealer
Services at (800) 858-8850, and state (i) the name of the shareholder(s)
appearing on the Fund's records, (ii) his or her account number with the Fund,
(iii) the amount to be redeemed, and (iv) the name of the person(s) requesting
the redemption. The Corporation reserves the right to terminate or modify the
telephone redemption service at any time.
SYSTEMATIC WITHDRAWAL PLAN. Shareholders who have invested at least $5,000
in the Fund may provide for the periodic payment from the account pursuant to
the Systematic Withdrawal Plan. At the shareholder's election, such payment
may be made directly to the shareholder or to a third party on a monthly,
quarterly, semi-annual or annual basis. The minimum periodic payment is $50.
Maintenance of a withdrawal plan concurrently with purchases of additional
shares may be disadvantageous to a shareholder because of the sales charge
applicable to such purchases. Further information may be obtained by calling
Shareholder/Dealer Services at (800) 858-8850.
CHECKS. An individual shareholder may request from SAFS a supply of checks
which may be used to effect the redemption of shares having a value of at
least $100. Such checks may not be used to purchase shares of the Fund, or for
redemption of Class C shares. When a check is presented for payment, the
Transfer Agent redeems a sufficient number of full and fractional shares in
the shareholder's account to cover the amount of the check. The use of a check
to make a withdrawal enables a shareholder of the Fund to receive dividends on
the shares to be redeemed up to the time the check clears the Fund. Checks
provided by the Fund may not be certified. There is no charge to shareholders
for checks provided by the Fund.
GENERAL. Normally payment is made on the next business day for shares
redeemed, but in any event, payment is made by check within seven days after
receipt by the Transfer Agent of a redemption request in proper form. Under
unusual circumstances, the Fund may suspend repurchases or postpone payment
for up to seven days or longer, as permitted by the federal securities laws.
At various times, the Fund may be requested to redeem shares for which it
has not yet received good payment. The Fund may delay or cause to be delayed
the mailing of a redemption check until such time as good payment (e.g., cash
or certified check drawn on a United States bank) has been collected for the
purchase of such shares, which will not exceed 15 days.
Because of the high cost of maintaining smaller shareholder accounts, the
Fund may redeem on at least 60 days' written notice and without shareholder
consent, any account that, due to a shareholder redemption and not to market
fluctuation of the account's value, has a net asset value of less than $500
($250 for retirement plan accounts), as of the close
10
<PAGE>
of business on the day preceding such notice, unless such shareholder
increases the account balance to at least $500 during such 60-day period. In
the alternative, the Fund may impose a $2.00 monthly charge on accounts below
the minimum account size.
If a shareholder redeems shares of any class of the Fund and then within one
year from the date of redemption decides the shares should not have been
redeemed, the shareholder may use all or any part of the redemption proceeds
to reinstate, with the crediting of any CDSC paid with respect to such
reinstated shares at the time of redemption (Class B and Class C shares only),
all or any part of the redemption proceeds in shares of the Fund at the then-
current net asset value. Reinstatement may affect the tax status of the prior
redemption.
EXCHANGE PRIVILEGE
GENERAL. Shareholders in the Fund may exchange their shares for the same
class of shares of other funds in the SunAmerica Family of Mutual Funds that
offer such class at the respective net asset value per share; however,
exchanges of Class A shares may be subject to the applicable sales load
imposed by the acquired fund. Additionally, Class C shareholders of the Fund
may exchange their shares for Class II shares of another fund in the
SunAmerica Family of Mutual Funds. Shareholders who wish to use the exchange
privilege to exchange their shares will incur a $5.00 exchange fee. Before
making an exchange, a shareholder should obtain and review the prospectus of
the fund whose shares are being acquired. All exchanges are subject to
applicable minimum initial investment requirements and can only be effected if
the shares to be acquired are qualified for sale in the state in which the
shareholder resides. Exchanges of shares generally will constitute a taxable
transaction except for IRAs, Keogh Plans and other qualified or tax-exempt
accounts. The exchange privilege may be terminated or modified upon 60 days'
written notice. Further information about the exchange privilege may be
obtained by calling Shareholder/Dealer Services at (800) 858-8850.
If a shareholder acquires Class A shares through an exchange from another
fund in the SunAmerica Family of Mutual Funds and the original purchase of
such fund's Class A shares was not subject to an initial sales charge because
the purchase was in excess of $1 million, such shareholder will remain subject
to the 1% CDSC, if any, applicable to such redemptions. In such event, the
period for which the original shares were held prior to the exchange will be
"tacked" with the holding period of the shares acquired in the exchange for
purposes of determining whether the 1% CDSC is applicable upon a redemption of
any of such shares.
A shareholder who acquires Class B or Class C shares through an exchange
from another fund in the SunAmerica Family of Mutual Funds will retain
liability for any CDSC which is outstanding on the date of the exchange. In
such event, the period for which the original shares were held prior to the
exchange will be "tacked" or combined with the holding period of the shares
acquired in the exchange for purposes of determining what, if any, CDSC is
applicable upon a redemption of any of such shares.
For federal income tax purposes, an exchange is treated as a redemption and
a purchase of shares.
RESTRICTIONS ON EXCHANGES. Because excessive trading (including short-term
"market timing" trading) can hurt the Fund's performance, the Fund may refuse
any exchange sell order (i) if it appears to be a market timing transaction
involving a significant portion of the Fund's assets or (ii) from any
shareholder account if previous use of the exchange privilege is considered
excessive. Accounts under common ownership or control, including, but not
limited to, those with the same taxpayer identification number and those
administered so as to redeem or purchase shares based upon certain
predetermined market indicators, will be considered one account for this
purpose.
In addition, the Fund reserves the right to refuse any exchange purchase
order if, in the judgment of the Adviser, the Fund would be unable to invest
effectively in accordance with its investment objective and policies, or would
otherwise potentially be adversely affected. A shareholder's purchase exchange
may be restricted or refused if the Fund receives or anticipates simultaneous
orders affecting significant portions of the Fund's assets. In particular, a
pattern of exchanges that coincide with a "market timing" strategy may be
disruptive to the Fund and may therefore be refused.
Finally, as indicated under "Purchase of Shares", the Fund and Distributor
reserve the right to refuse any order for the purchase of shares.
11
<PAGE>
PORTFOLIO TRANSACTIONS AND BROKERAGE
The Adviser is responsible for decisions to buy and sell securities for the
Fund, the selection of broker-dealers and negotiation of commission rates.
Since purchases and sales of portfolio securities by the Fund are usually
principal transactions, the Fund incurs little or no brokerage commissions.
Portfolio securities are normally purchased directly from the issuer or from a
market maker for the securities. The purchase price paid to dealers serving as
market makers may include a spread between the bid and asked price. The Fund
may also purchase securities from underwriters at prices which include a
concession paid by the issuer to the underwriter.
As a general matter, the Adviser selects broker-dealers which, in its best
judgment, provide prompt and reliable execution at favorable security prices
and reasonable commission rates. The Adviser may select broker-dealers which
provide it with research services and may cause the Fund to pay such broker-
dealers commissions which exceed those which other broker-dealers may have
charged, if in the Adviser's view the commissions are reasonable in relation
to the value of the brokerage and/or research services provided by the broker-
dealer. Brokerage arrangements may take into account the distribution of Fund
shares by broker-dealers, subject to best price and execution. The Adviser may
effect portfolio transactions through an affiliated broker-dealer, acting as
agent and not as principal, in accordance with the requirements of the 1940
Act and other applicable securities laws.
DETERMINATION OF NET ASSET VALUE
The Fund is open for business on any day the New York Stock Exchange
("NYSE") is open for regular trading. Shares are valued each day as of the
close of regular trading on the NYSE (generally, 4:00 P.M., Eastern time). The
Fund calculates the net asset value of each class of its shares separately by
dividing the total value of each class's net assets by the shares outstanding
of each class. It is the intention of the Fund to maintain a net asset value
per share of $1.00, although there can be no assurance that the Fund will be
able to do so. In accordance with the rules and regulations of the Securities
and Exchange Commission (the "SEC"), the Fund intends to value its portfolio
securities based upon their amortized cost. This entails initially valuing a
security at its cost and thereafter assuming a constant amortization to
maturity of any premium or discount regardless of the impact of fluctuating
interest rates on the market value of the instrument. While this method
provides certainty in valuation, it may result in periods during which value,
as determined by the amortized cost method, is higher or lower than the price
the Fund would receive if it sold the instrument.
PERFORMANCE DATA
The Fund may advertise performance data that reflects its yield and
effective yield. Yield is based on historical earnings and is not intended to
indicate future performance.
The Fund's yield is calculated by determining the net change in value of a
hypothetical account which had one share at the beginning of a seven day
period. The yield is compounded in order to determine the effective yield.
Yield is determined by a standard formula prescribed by the SEC to facilitate
comparison with yields quoted by other mutual funds. A detailed discussion of
the yield computation is contained in the Statement of Additional Information.
Since expenses for Class B and Class C shares are higher than those for
Class A shares, the performance of Class B and Class C shares will be lower
than that for Class A shares.
DIVIDENDS, DISTRIBUTIONS AND TAXES
DIVIDENDS AND DISTRIBUTIONS. Dividends from net investment income are
declared daily and paid monthly on or about the fifteenth day of the month.
Dividends and distributions generally are taxable in the year in which they
are paid, except any dividends paid in January which were declared in the
previous calendar quarter will be treated as paid in December of the previous
year. Dividends and distributions are paid in additional shares based on the
next-determined net asset value, unless the shareholder elects in writing, not
less than five business days prior to the payment date, to receive such
amounts in excess of $10 in cash.
If a shareholder has elected to receive dividends and/or capital gain
distributions in cash and the
12
<PAGE>
postal or other delivery service is unable to deliver checks to the
shareholder's address of record, no interest will accrue on amounts
represented by uncashed dividend distribution checks.
In addition to having the dividends and distributions of the Fund reinvested
in shares of the Fund, a shareholder may, if he or she so elects on the New
Account Application, have dividends and distributions invested in the same
class of shares of any other SunAmerica Mutual Fund at the then-current net
asset value of such Fund(s).
The excess of net realized long-term capital gains over net capital losses,
if any, will be distributed to shareholders annually. The Fund's policy is to
offset any prior year capital loss carry-forward against any realized capital
gains, and accordingly, no distribution of capital gains will be made until
gains have been realized in excess of any such capital loss carry-forward.
TAXES. The Fund is qualified and intends to continue to qualify as a
regulated investment company under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as
amended. While so qualified, the Fund will not be subject to U.S. Federal
income tax on the portion of its investment company taxable income and net
capital gains distributed to its shareholders.
For Federal income tax purposes, dividends of net ordinary income and
distributions of any net realized short-term capital gain, whether paid in
cash or reinvested in shares of the Fund, are taxable to shareholders as
ordinary income.
Statements as to the tax status of distributions to shareholders of the Fund
will be mailed annually. Shareholders are urged to consult their own tax
advisors regarding specific questions as to Federal, state or local taxes. See
"Dividends, Distributions and Taxes" in the Statement of Additional
Information.
GENERAL INFORMATION
REPORTS TO SHAREHOLDERS. The Corporation sends to its shareholders audited
annual and unaudited semi-annual reports for the Fund. The financial
statements appearing in annual reports are audited by independent accountants.
In addition, the Transfer Agent sends to each shareholder having an account
directly with the Fund a statement confirming transactions in the account.
ORGANIZATION. The Corporation, organized under the laws of the State of
Maryland on July 20, 1983, is an open-end diversified management investment
company, commonly referred to as a mutual fund. The Fund is the only
investment series or fund of the Corporation. The Directors have the authority
to issue up to an aggregate of ten billion (10,000,000,000) shares of common
stock of the Corporation of separate series and classes, par value $.001 per
share. The Fund currently offers Class A, Class B and Class C shares.
The Corporation does not hold annual shareholder meetings. The Directors are
required to call a meeting of shareholders for the purpose of voting upon the
question of removal of any Director when so requested in writing by the
shareholders of record holding at least 10% of the Corporation's outstanding
shares. Each share of the Fund has equal voting rights on each matter
pertaining to the Fund or matters to be voted upon by the Corporation, except
as noted in the Statement of Additional Information. Each share of the Fund is
entitled to participate equally with the other shares of the Fund in dividends
and other distributions and the proceeds of any liquidation, except that, due
to the differing expenses borne by the classes, such dividends and proceeds
are likely to be lower for Class B and Class C shares than for Class A shares.
See the Statement of Additional Information for more information with respect
to the distinctions among classes.
INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS AND LEGAL COUNSEL. Price Waterhouse LLP, 1177 Avenue
of the Americas, New York, NY 10036, serves as the Corporation's independent
accountants. The firm of Shereff, Friedman, Hoffman & Goodman, LLP, 919 Third
Avenue, New York, NY 10022, serves as legal counsel to the Corporation.
YEAR 2000 COMPLIANCE. Many services provided to the Fund and its
shareholders by the Adviser, Distributor and Administrator rely on the smooth
functioning of their computer and computer-based systems as well as those of
their outside service providers. Many computer and computer-based systems
cannot distinguish the year 2000 from the year 1900 because of the way systems
encode and calculate dates. This Year 2000 Issue could potentially have an
adverse impact on the handling of security trades, the payment of interest and
dividends, pricing and account services. The Adviser, Distributor and
Administrator recognize the importance of the Year 2000 Issue and are taking
appropriate steps
13
<PAGE>
necessary in preparation of year 2000. The Adviser, Distributor and
Administrator fully anticipate that their systems and those of their outside
service providers will be adapted in time for the year 2000, and to further
this goal they have coordinated a plan to repair, adapt or replace systems
that are not Year 2000 compliant, and have obtained similar representations
from their outside service providers. The Adviser, Distributor and
Administrator expect to significantly complete their plan by the end of the
1998 calendar year, and perform appropriate systems testing during the 1999
calendar year.
SHAREHOLDER INQUIRIES. All inquiries regarding the Fund should be directed

Prospectus. For questions concerning share ownership, dividends, transfer of
ownership or share redemption, contact SAFS, Mutual Fund Operations, The
SunAmerica Center, 733 Third Avenue, New York, NY 10017-3204, or call
Shareholder/Dealer Services at (800) 858-8850.
APPENDIX
U.S. GOVERNMENT OBLIGATIONS. Securities issued or guaranteed as to principal
and interest by the U.S. government, its agencies or instrumentalities include
U.S. Treasury obligations, consisting of bills, notes and bonds, which
principally differ in their interest rates, maturities and times of issuance,
and obligations issued or guaranteed by agencies and instrumentalities which
are supported by (i) the full faith and credit of the U.S. Treasury (such as
securities of the Small Business Administration), (ii) the limited authority
of the issuer to borrow from the U.S. Treasury (such as securities of the
Student Loan Marketing Association), or (iii) the authority of the U.S.
government to purchase certain obligations of the issuer (such as securities
of the Federal National Mortgage Association). No assurance can be given that
the U.S. government will provide financial support to its agencies and
instrumentalities as described in "(ii)" or "(iii)" above other than as set
forth, since it is not obligated to do so by law.
BANK OBLIGATIONS. These obligations include certificates of deposit and
bankers' acceptances issued by domestic banks and savings and loan
associations and other savings depositories, which have total assets in excess
of $2 billion. In addition, the Fund may invest in U.S. dollar denominated
obligations issued by foreign branches of the domestic banks described above
("Eurodollar CD's"), including non-negotiable fixed time deposits maturing in
seven days or less, and in U.S. dollar denominated certificates of deposit
issued through U.S. branches of foreign banks ("Yankee CD's") having total
assets in excess of $2 billion. These investments may involve risks which
differ from investments in domestic obligations, such as future unfavorable
political and economic developments, the possible imposition of exchange
controls or other governmental restrictions, the availability of public
information about issuers, and differing accounting and financial reporting
standards.
COMMERCIAL PAPER. Commercial paper is a promissory note issued by a
corporation to finance short-term credit needs. The Fund may invest in
commercial paper of domestic corporations and in U.S. dollar denominated
commercial paper issued by foreign corporations. Commercial paper may be
either unsecured or backed by a letter of credit. Commercial paper obligations
may include variable amount master demand notes. These notes permit the
investment of fluctuating amounts at varying rates of interest pursuant to
note arrangements between the Fund, acting as lender, and the borrower. The
Fund only invests in such notes if they are redeemable at face value, plus
accrued interest, on not more than seven days' notice at any time.
CORPORATE OBLIGATIONS. These obligations include bonds, debentures and notes
issued by corporations to finance long-term credit needs. Although issued with
maturities in excess of one year, the Fund's investments in corporate
obligations are limited to obligations having remaining maturities of 397
calendar days or less at the time of purchase by the Fund.
REPURCHASE AGREEMENTS. The Fund may enter into repurchase agreements in
order to generate income while providing liquidity. When a Fund acquires a
security from a bank or securities dealer, it may simultaneously enter into a
repurchase agreement, wherein the seller agrees to repurchase the security at
a mutually agreed-upon time (generally within seven days) and price. The
repurchase price is in excess of the purchase price by an amount which
reflects an agreed-upon market rate of return, which is not tied to the coupon
rate or maturity of the underlying security. Repurchase agreements will be
fully collateralized. The Fund will only enter into repurchase agreements
involving securities in which it could
14
<PAGE>
otherwise invest and with selected banks and securities dealers whose
financial condition is monitored by the Adviser, subject to the guidance of
the Directors. If the seller under the repurchase agreement defaults on its
obligation to repurchase the underlying security, the Fund may incur a loss if
the value of the collateral securing the repurchase agreement has declined,
and may incur disposition costs in connection with liquidating the collateral.
If bankruptcy proceedings are commenced with respect to the seller,
realization of the collateral by the Fund may be delayed or limited. There is
no limit on the amount of the Fund's net assets that may be subject to
repurchase agreements having a maturity of seven days or less. Repurchase
agreements with a maturity of greater than seven days will be treated as
illiquid securities and subject to the 10% limitation described below.
REVERSE REPURCHASE AGREEMENTS. Subject to the Fund's restriction with
respect to borrowing, the Fund may enter into reverse repurchase agreements.
In a reverse repurchase agreement, the Fund sells a security subject to the
rights and obligations to repurchase such security. The Fund then invests the
proceeds from the transaction in another obligation in which the Fund is
authorized to invest. In order to minimize any risk involved, the Fund
maintains with the custodian in a segregated account cash or liquid securities
at least equal in value to the repurchase price.
ILLIQUID SECURITIES. The Fund may invest up to 10% of its net assets,
determined as of the date of purchase, in illiquid securities including
repurchase agreements which have a maturity of longer than seven days,
securities with legal or contractual restrictions on resale (restricted
securities) and securities that are not readily marketable in securities
markets either within or outside the United States. Restricted securities
eligible for resale pursuant to Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933, as
amended, or certain private placements of commercial paper issued in reliance
on an exemption from such Act pursuant to Section 4(2) thereof, that have a
readily available market are not considered illiquid for purposes of the
Fund's 10% limitation on purchases of illiquid securities. The Adviser will
monitor the liquidity of such restricted securities under the supervision of
the Directors. See "Illiquid Securities" in the Statement of Additional
Information for a further discussion of investments in such securities.
ASSET-BACKED SECURITIES. The Fund may invest up to 15% of its net assets in
asset-backed securities rated in conformance with both the Fund's credit
quality restrictions and Rule 2a-7 under the 1940 Act. These securities,
issued by trusts and special purpose corporations, are backed by a pool of
assets, such as credit card or automobile loan receivables, representing the
obligations of a number of different parties. Payments of principal and
interest on the underlying loans are passed through to the holders of asset-
backed securities over the life of the securities. Corporate asset-backed
securities present certain risks. For instance, in the case of credit card
receivables, these securities may not have the benefit of any security
interest in the related collateral. See the Statement of Additional
Information for further information on these securities.
LOANS OF PORTFOLIO SECURITIES. The Fund may lend portfolio securities to
brokers, dealers and other financial institutions, provided such loans are
callable at any time by the Fund and are at all times secured by cash or
equivalent collateral. By lending its portfolio securities, the Fund will
receive income while retaining the securities' potential for capital
appreciation. As with any extensions of credit, there are risks of delay in
recovery and, in some cases, even loss of rights in the collateral should the
borrower of the securities fail financially. However, these loans of portfolio
securities will only be made to firms deemed by the Adviser to be
creditworthy.
FUTURE DEVELOPMENTS. The Fund may invest in securities and other instruments
which do not presently exist but may be developed in the future, provided that
each such investment is consistent with the Fund's investment objectives,
policies and restrictions and is otherwise legally permissible under federal
and state laws. The Prospectus will be amended or supplemented as appropriate
to discuss any such new investments.

HISTORY OF THE FUND
On September 23, 1993, the Articles of Incorporation of the Corporation
were amended to permit the creation of multiple series and classes of shares,
and on September 24, 1993, the Corporation reorganized with the SunAmerica Cash
Fund ("Cash Fund") and was renamed SunAmerica Money Market Funds, Inc. (the
"Reorganization"). All of the outstanding shares of the Corporation were
redesignated Class A shares of the Fund in the Reorganization. In addition, in
the Reorganization, the shareholders of Cash Fund received Class B shares of the
Fund.
INVESTMENT OBJECTIVE AND POLICIES
The investment objective and policies of the Fund are described in the
Prospectus. Certain types of securities in which the Fund may invest and certain
investment practices which the Fund may employ, which are described in the
Prospectus and in the Appendix thereto, are discussed more fully below.
U.S. Government Obligations. As discussed in the Prospectus, the Fund may invest
in a variety of short-term debt securities issued or guaranteed by the U.S.
Government, its agencies or instrumentalities. These securities include a
variety of Treasury securities which differ primarily in their interest rates,
the length of their maturities and dates of issuance. Treasury bills are
obligations issued with maturities of one year or less. Treasury notes are
generally issued with maturities of from one to ten years. Treasury bonds are
generally issued with maturities of more than ten years. Obligations issued by
agencies and instrumentalities, which may be purchased by the Fund, also vary in
terms of their maturities at the time of issuance. However, the Fund invests
only in obligations that, at their time of purchase by the Fund, have remaining
maturities of 397 calendar days or less.
Bank Obligations. Certificates of deposit ("CD's") and bankers' acceptances may
be purchased by the Fund. CD's are securities which represent deposits in a
depository institution (e.g., a commercial bank or savings and loan association)
for a specified period at a specified rate of interest and normally are
negotiable. CD's issued by a foreign branch (usually London) of a U.S. domestic
bank, are known as Eurodollar CD's. Although certain risks may be associated
with Eurodollar CD's which are not associated with CD's issued in the U.S. by
domestic banks, the credit risks of these obligations are similar because U.S.
banks generally are liable for the obligations of their branches. CD's issued
through U.S. branches of foreign banks are known as Yankee CD's. These branches
are subject to Federal or state banking regulations. The secondary markets for
Eurodollar and Yankee CD's may be less liquid than the market for CD's issued by
domestic branches of U.S. banks.
B-2
<PAGE>
Bankers' acceptances are short-term credit instruments that represent the
promise of a bank to pay a draft which has been drawn by one of its customers at
its maturity. These obligations are used to finance the import, export, transfer
or storage of goods and represent the obligation of both the accepting bank and
its customer.
Commercial Paper. As discussed in the Prospectus, the commercial paper in which
the Fund may invest may be unsecured or may be backed by letters of credit.
Commercial paper that is backed by a letter of credit is, in effect, "two party"
paper with the issuer of the paper initially responsible for repayment and a
bank guaranteeing the repayment if not made by the issuer at maturity. The Fund
may also invest in variable amount master demand notes which represent a direct
lending arrangement between the Fund and a corporate borrower. These notes
permit daily changes in the amount borrowed. The Fund has the right to increase
the amount loaned under the note at any time up to the full amount provided in
the loan agreement or to decrease the amount loaned. The borrower generally has
the right to prepay up to the full amount of the loan without penalty. These
notes are generally not traded in a secondary market; however, the Fund will
only enter into such arrangements where it has the right to redeem the note on
not more than seven days notice.
Corporate Obligations. These obligations include bonds, debentures and notes
issued by corporations to finance long-term credit needs. Although issued with
maturities in excess of one year, the Fund's investments in corporate
obligations are limited to obligations having remaining maturities of 397
calendar days or less at the time of purchase by the Fund.
Illiquid Securities. The Fund may invest up to 10% of its net assets, determined
as of the date of purchase, in illiquid securities including repurchase
agreements which have a maturity of longer than seven days or in other
securities that are illiquid by virtue of the absence of a readily available
market or legal or contractual restrictions on resale. Historically, illiquid
securities have included securities subject to contractual or legal restrictions
on resale because they have not been registered under the Securities Act of
1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), securities which are otherwise not
readily marketable and repurchase agreements having a maturity of longer than
seven days. Repurchase agreements subject to demand are deemed to have a
maturity equal to the notice period. Securities which have not been registered
under the Securities Act are referred to as private placements or restricted
securities and are purchased directly from the issuer or in the secondary
market. Mutual funds do not typically hold a significant amount of these
restricted or other illiquid securities because of the potential for delays on
resale and uncertainty in valuation. Limitations on resale may have an adverse
effect on the marketability of portfolio securities and a
B-3
<PAGE>
mutual fund might be unable to dispose of restricted or other illiquid
securities promptly or at reasonable prices and might thereby experience
difficulty satisfying redemptions within seven days. A mutual fund might also
have to register such restricted securities in order to dispose of them,
resulting in additional expense and delay. There generally will be a lapse of
time between a mutual fund's decision to sell an unregistered security and the
registration of such security promoting sale. Adverse market conditions could
impede a public offering of such securities. When purchasing unregistered
securities, the Fund will seek to obtain the right of registration at the
expense of the issuer.
In recent years, a large institutional market has developed for certain
securities that are not registered under the Securities Act, including
repurchase agreements, commercial paper, foreign securities, municipal
securities and corporate bonds and notes. Institutional investors depend on an
efficient institutional market in which the unregistered security can be readily
resold or on an issuer's ability to honor a demand for repayment. The fact that
there are contractual or legal restrictions on resale to the general public or
to certain institutions may not be indicative of the liquidity of such
investments.
Restricted securities eligible for resale pursuant to Rule 144A under the
Securities Act for which there is a readily available market will not be deemed
to be illiquid. The Fund's investment adviser, SunAmerica Asset Management Corp.
(the "Adviser"), will monitor the liquidity of such restricted securities
subject to the supervision of the Board of Directors of the Corporation (the
"Directors"). In reaching liquidity decisions the Adviser will consider, inter
alia, pursuant to guidelines and procedures established by the Directors, the
following factors: (1) the frequency of trades and quotes for the security; (2)
the number of dealers wishing to purchase or sell the security and the number of
other potential purchasers; (3) dealer undertakings to make a market in the
security; and (4) the nature of the security and the nature of the marketplace
trades (e.g., the time needed to dispose of the security, the method of
soliciting offers and the mechanics of the transfer).
Commercial paper issues in which the Fund may invest include securities
issued by major corporations without registration under the Securities Act in
reliance on the exemption from such registration afforded by Section 3(a)(3)
thereof, and commercial paper issued in reliance on the so-called private
placement exemption from registration which is afforded by Section 4(2) of the
Securities Act ("Section 4(2) paper"). Section 4(2) paper is restricted as to
disposition under the Federal securities laws in that any resale must similarly
be made in an exempt transaction. Section 4(2) paper is normally resold to other
institutional investors through or with the assistance of investment dealers who
make a market in Section 4(2) paper, thus providing liquidity.
B-4
<PAGE>
Section 4(2) paper that is issued by a company that files reports under the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is generally eligible to be sold in reliance on
the safe harbor of Rule 144A described above. The Fund's 10% limitation on
investments in illiquid securities includes Section 4(2) paper other than
Section 4(2) paper that the Adviser has determined to be liquid pursuant to
guidelines established by the Directors. The Directors delegated to the Adviser
the function of making day-to-day determinations of liquidity with respect to
Section 4(2) paper, pursuant to guidelines approved by the Directors that
require the Adviser to take into account the same factors described above for
other restricted securities and require the Adviser to perform the same
monitoring and reporting functions.
Repurchase Agreements. The Fund may enter into repurchase agreements with banks,
brokers or securities dealers. In such agreements, the seller agrees to
repurchase a security from the Fund at a mutually agreed-upon time and price.
The period of maturity is usually quite short, either overnight or a few days
although it may extend over a number of months. The repurchase price is in
excess of the purchase price by an amount which reflects an agreed-upon rate of
return effective for the period of time the Fund's money is invested in the
security. Whenever the Fund enters into a repurchase agreement, it obtains
collateral having a value at least equal to at least 102% (100% if such
collateral is in the form of cash) of the repurchase price. The instruments held
as collateral are valued daily and if the value of the instruments declines, the
Fund will require additional collateral. If the seller defaults and the value of
the collateral securing the repurchase agreements declines, the Fund may incur a
loss. In addition, if bankruptcy proceedings are commenced with respect to the
seller of the security, realization of the collateral by the Fund may be delayed
or limited. The Directors have established guidelines to be used by the Adviser
in connection with transactions in repurchase agreements and will regularly
monitor the Fund's use of repurchase agreements. The Fund will not invest in
repurchase agreements maturing in more than seven days if the aggregate of such
investments along with other illiquid securities exceeds 10% of the value of its
net assets. However, there is no limit on the amount of the Fund's net assets
that may be subject to repurchase agreements having a maturity of seven days or
less for temporary defensive purposes.
Reverse Repurchase Agreements. The Fund may enter into reverse repurchase
agreements with brokers, dealers and other financial institutions that have been
determined by the Adviser to be creditworthy. A reverse repurchase agreement
involves the sale of a security held by the Fund, subject to an agreement by the
Fund to repurchase that security at a mutually agreed upon price, date and
interest payment. The Fund uses the proceeds of the reverse repurchase agreement
to make additional investments which mature on or prior to the repurchase date,
and will enter into a reverse
B-5
<PAGE>
repurchase agreement when it anticipates that the interest income to be earned
from investing the proceeds of the reverse repurchase agreement will exceed the
interest expense of the transaction. During the time a reverse repurchase
agreement is outstanding, the Fund will maintain with the Custodian a segregated
account containing cash or liquid securities having a value at least equal to
the repurchase price under the agreement. In the event that the other party to
the reverse repurchase agreement defaults on its obligation to resell to the
Fund the underlying securities because of insolvency or otherwise, the Fund
could experience delays and costs in gaining access to the securities and could
suffer a loss to the extent that the value of the proceeds of the agreement fell
below the value of the underlying securities. Reverse repurchase agreements are
considered to be borrowings and are subject to the percentage limitations on
borrowings. See "Investment Restrictions."
Asset-Backed Securities. The Fund may invest up to 15% of its net assets in
asset-backed securities rated in conformance with both the Fund's credit quality
restrictions and Rule 2a-7 under the 1940 Act. These securities, issued by
trusts and special purpose corporations, are backed by a pool of assets, such as
credit card and automobile loan receivables, representing the obligations of a
number of different parties. The Fund may also invest in privately issued
asset-backed securities.
Asset-backed securities present certain risks. For instance, in the case of
credit card receivables, these securities may not have the benefit of any
security interest in the related collateral. Credit card receivables are
generally unsecured and the debtors are entitled to the protection of a number
of state and federal consumer credit laws, many of which give such debtors the
right to set off certain amounts owed on the credit cards, thereby reducing the
balance due. Most issuers of automobile receivables permit the servicer to
retain possession of the underlying obligations. If the servicer were to sell
these obligations to another party, there is a risk that the purchaser would
acquire an interest superior to that of the holders of the related automobile
receivables. In addition, because of the large number of vehicles involved in a
typical issuance and technical requirements under state laws, the trustee for
the holders of the automobile receivables may not have a proper security
interest in all of the obligations backing such receivables. Therefore, there is
the possibility that recoveries on repossessed collateral may not, in some
cases, be available to support payments on these securities.
Asset-backed securities are often backed by a pool of assets representing
the obligations of a number of different parties. To lessen the effect of
failures by obligors to make payments on underlying assets, the securities may
contain elements of credit support which fall into two categories: (i) liquidity
protection and (ii) protection against losses resulting from ultimate default
B-6
<PAGE>
by an obligor on the underlying assets. Liquidity protection refers to the
provision of advances, generally by the entity administering the pool of assets,
to ensure that the receipt of payments on the underlying pool occurs in a timely
fashion. Protection against losses resulting from ultimate default ensures
payment through insurance policies or letters of credit obtained by the issuer
or sponsor from third parties. The Fund will not pay any additional or separate
fees for credit support. The degree of credit support provided for each issue is
generally based on historical information respecting the level of credit risk
associated with the underlying assets. Delinquency or loss in excess of that
anticipated or failure of the credit support could adversely affect the return
on an investment in such a security.
Loans of Portfolio Securities. Consistent with applicable regulatory
requirements, the Fund may lend portfolio securities in amounts up to 20% of
total assets to brokers, dealers and other financial institutions, provided,
that such loans are callable at any time by the Fund and are at all times
secured by cash or equivalent collateral. In lending its portfolio securities, a
Fund receives income while retaining the securities' potential for capital
appreciation. The advantage of such loans is that a Fund continues to receive
the interest and dividends on the loaned securities while at the same time
earning interest on the collateral, which will be invested in short-term
obligations. Where securities instead of cash are delivered to the Fund as
collateral, the Fund earns its return in the form of a loan premium paid by the
borrower. A loan may be terminated by the borrower on one business day's notice
or by the Fund at any time. If the borrower fails to maintain the requisite
amount of collateral, the loan automatically terminates, and the Fund can use
the collateral to replace the securities while holding the borrower liable for
any excess of replacement cost over collateral. As with any extensions of
credit, there are risks of delay in recovery and in some cases even loss of
rights in the collateral should the borrower of the securities fail financially.
However, these loans of portfolio securities will only be made to firms deemed
by the Adviser to be creditworthy. On termination of the loan, the borrower is
required to return the securities to the Fund; and any gain or loss in the
market price of the loaned security during the loan would inure to the Fund. The
Fund will pay reasonable finders', administrative and custodial fees in
connection with a loan of its securities or may share the interest earned on
collateral with the borrower.
Since voting or consent rights which accompany loaned securities pass to
the borrower, the Fund will follow the policy of calling the loan, in whole or
in part as may be appropriate, to permit the exercise of such rights if the
matters involved would have a material effect on the Fund's investment in the
securities which are the subject of the loan.
B-7
<PAGE>
Borrowings. As noted in the Prospectus, the Fund may borrow from banks for
temporary or emergency purposes or to meet redemption requests. The consequence
of such borrowings might be to reduce the Fund's yield below that which would
have been realized in the absence of such borrowings.
When-Issued and Delayed-Delivery Securities. From time to time, in the ordinary
course of business, the Fund may purchase securities on a when-issued or
delayed-delivery basis - i.e., delivery and payment can take place a month or
more after the date of the transactions. Such agreements might be entered into,
for example, when the Fund anticipates a decline in the yield of securities of a
given issuer and is able to obtain a more advantageous yield by committing
currently to purchase securities to be issued later. The securities so purchased
are subject to market fluctuation and no interest accrues to the purchaser
during this period. At the time of delivery of the securities, the value may be
more or less than the purchase price. The Fund will establish and maintain until
the date of delivery of such when-issued securities, a segregated account with
the Fund's Custodian in which it will maintain cash or liquid securities at
least equal in value to commitments for such when-issued or delayed-delivery
securities. The Fund will make payment for such when-issued securities on the
delivery date utilizing then-available cash and, if cash is not available, or if
it is not disadvantageous to the Fund, utilizing the proceeds of the liquidation
of portfolio securities held in such segregated account.
Special Risk Factors. In the case of bank obligations not insured by the Federal
Deposit Insurance Corporation ("FDIC") or the Federal Savings and Loan Insurance
Corporation ("FSLIC"), the Fund will be dependent solely on the financial
resources of the issuing bank for payment of principal and interest. The Fund's
investments in commercial paper issued by foreign corporations and securities of
foreign branches of domestic banks and domestic branches of foreign banks
involve certain investment risks in addition to those affecting obligations of
U.S. domestic issuers. These risks include the possibility of adverse political
and economic developments, and the risk of: imposition of foreign withholding
taxes on the interest payable on such securities; seizure, expropriation or
nationalization of foreign deposits; and adoption of foreign governmental
restrictions, such as exchange controls, which might adversely affect the
payment of principal and interest on such securities. In addition, certain
reserve requirements and other regulations to which domestic banks are subject
may not apply to foreign branches or foreign banks, which also may use
accounting methods different from those used by U.S. domestic banks.
Nonnegotiable time deposits, unlike negotiable certificates of deposit, cannot
be sold in a secondary market and may be subject to penalties for early
withdrawal.

INVESTMENT RESTRICTIONS
The Fund is subject to a number of investment restrictions that are
fundamental policies and may not be changed without the approval of the holders
of a majority of the Fund's outstanding voting securities. As defined in the
1940 Act, a "majority of the outstanding voting securities" of the Fund means
the lesser of (i) 67% of the shares of the Fund represented at a meeting at
which more than 50% of the outstanding shares are present in person or
represented by proxy or (ii) more than 50% of the outstanding shares. Unless
otherwise indicated, all percentage limitations apply only at the time the
investment is made; any subsequent change in any applicable percentage resulting
from fluctuations in value will not be deemed an investment contrary to these
restrictions. Under these restrictions, the Fund may not:
1. Purchase securities other than those described under "Investment
Objective and Policies."
2. Enter into reverse repurchase agreements exceeding in the aggregate
1/3 of the value of the Fund's total assets, less liabilities other
than obligations under such reverse repurchase agreements.
3. Purchase the securities of issuers conducting their principal business
activity in the same industry if immediately after such purchase the
value of its investments in such industry would exceed 25% of the
value of the Fund's total assets, provided that there is no limitation
with respect to investments in securities issued by domestic branches
of U.S. banks or the U.S. Government, its agencies or
instrumentalities.
4. Invest more than 5% of its assets in the securities of any one issuer
(exclusive of securities issued or guaranteed by the U.S. Government,
its agencies or instrumentalities) except that up to 25% of the value
of the Fund's total assets may be invested without regard to such 5%
limitation, subject to applicable limitations imposed by Rule 2a-7
under the 1940 Act.
5. Make loans, except through the purchase or holding of debt obligations
in accordance with the Fund's investment objective and policies (see
"Investment Objective and Policies").
6. Lend its portfolio securities in excess of 20% of its total assets
provided that such loans are made according to the guidelines of the
Securities and Exchange Commission and the Fund's Board of Directors,
including maintaining collateral from the borrower equal at all times
to the current market value of the securities loaned.
B-9
<PAGE>
7. Borrow money except from banks for temporary or emergency purposes to
meet redemption requests which might otherwise require the untimely
disposition of securities (not for the purpose of increasing income),
provided that borrowings in the aggregate may not exceed 10% of the
value of the Fund's total assets, including the amount borrowed, at
the time of such borrowing.
8. Purchase or sell puts, calls, straddles, spreads or any combination
thereof, real estate, commodities, commodity contracts or interests in
oil, gas and/or mineral exploration or development programs, provided
that the Fund may purchase bonds or commercial paper issued by
companies, including real estate investment trusts, which invest in
real estate or interests therein.
9. Invest in securities of other registered investment companies, except
by purchases in the open market involving only customary brokerage
commissions and as a result of which the Fund will not hold more than
3% of the outstanding voting securities of any one investment company,
will not have invested more than 5% of its total assets in any one
investment company and will not have invested more than 10% of its
total assets in such securities of one or more investment companies
(each of the above percentages to be determined at the time of
investment), or except as part of a merger, consolidation or other
acquisition.
10. Act as an underwriter of securities.
11. Make short sales of securities or maintain a short position, provided
that this restriction shall not be deemed to be applicable to the
purchase or sale of "when-issued" securities or of securities for
delivery at a future date.
12. Invest in or hold securities of any issuer if those officers and
Directors of the Fund or the Adviser owning individually more than 1/2
of 1% of the securities of such issuer together own more than 5% of
the securities of such issuer.
In addition to the foregoing, the Fund has adopted a non-fundamental policy
(which may be changed by the Directors without shareholder approval) of not
investing more than 10% of its net assets in illiquid securities, including
repurchase agreements which have a maturity of longer than seven days, time
deposits with a maturity of longer than seven days, securities with legal or
contractual restrictions on resale and securities that are not readily
marketable in securities markets either within or without the United States.
Restricted securities eligible for resale pursuant to Rule 144A under the
Securities Act that have a readily
B-10
<PAGE>
available market, and commercial paper exempted from registration under the
Securities Act pursuant to Section 4(2) of the Securities Act that may be
offered and sold to "qualified institutional buyers" as defined in Rule 144A,
which the Adviser has determined to be liquid pursuant to guidelines established
by the Directors, will not be considered illiquid for purposes of this 10%
limitation on illiquid securities.
Pursuant to Rule 2a-7 under the 1940 Act, (the "Rule") the Fund is required
to limit its portfolio investments to those U.S. dollar denominated instruments
determined in accordance with procedures established by the Directors to present
minimal credit risks and which are at the time of acquisition "eligible
securities" as defined in the Rule. Under such Rule an eligible security is
generally an instrument that is rated (or that has been issued by an issuer
rated with respect to other short-term debt of comparable priority and security)
by at least two nationally recognized statistical rating organizations ( or if
only one such organization has issued a rating, by that organization) in one of
the two highest rating categories for short-term debt obligations, or an unrated
security which is determined to be of comparable quality under procedures
established by the Directors. The Rule prohibits the Fund from investing more
than 5% of its assets in the securities of any one issuer, except that the Fund
may invest up to 25% of its assets in the securities rated (or deemed comparable
to securities rated) in the highest rating category of a single issuer for a
period of up to three business days after purchase. In addition, the Fund may
not invest more than 5% of its assets in securities which have not been rated
(or deemed comparable to securities rated) in the highest rating category, with
investment in such second tier securities of any one issuer being limited to the
greater of 1% of the Fund's assets or $1 million. These issuer diversifications
restrictions do not apply to U.S. government securities. The Rule also prohibits
the Fund from purchasing any instrument with a remaining maturity of greater
than 397 calendar days, and requires the Fund to maintain a dollar-weighted
average portfolio maturity of 90 days or less. For purposes of the Rule, certain
variable or floating rate instruments are deemed to have a maturity equal to the
period remaining until the next readjustment of their interest rate or, in the
case of an instrument that is subject to a demand feature, the period remaining
until the principal amount can be recovered through demand.

Directors and officers of the Corporation are also directors or trustees
and officers of some or all of the other investment companies managed,
administered or advised by the Adviser, and distributed by SunAmerica Capital
Services, Inc. ("SACS" or the "Distributor") and other affiliates of SunAmerica
Inc.
The Corporation pays each Director who is not an interested person of the
Corporation or the Adviser (each a "disinterested" Director) annual compensation
in addition to reimbursement of out-of-pocket expenses in connection with
attendance at meetings of the Directors. Specifically, each disinterested
Director receives a pro rata portion (based upon the Corporation's net assets)
of the $40,000 in annual compensation for acting as a director or trustee to all
the retail funds in the SAMF. In addition, Mr. Eisenstat receives an aggregate
of $2,000 in annual compensation for serving as Chairman of the Boards of the
retail funds in the SAMF. Officers of the Corporation receive no direct
remuneration in such capacity from the Corporation or the Fund.
In addition, each disinterested Director also serves on the Audit Committee
of the Board of Directors. Each member of the Audit Committee receives an
aggregate of $5,000 in annual compensation for serving on the Audit Committees
of all of the SAMF as well as AST. With respect to the Corporation, each member
of the Audit Committee receives a pro rata portion of the $5,000 annual
compensation, based on the relative net assets of the Corporation. The
Corporation also has a Nominating Committee, composed solely of disinterested
Directors, which recommends to the Directors those persons to be nominated for
election as Directors by shareholders and selects and proposes nominees for
election by Directors between shareholders' meetings. Members of the Nominating
Committee serve without compensation.
The Directors (and Trustees) of the SAMF have adopted the SunAmerica
Disinterested Trustees' and Directors' Retirement Plan (the "Retirement Plan")
effective January 1, 1993 for the disinterested Directors of the SAMF. The
Retirement Plan provides generally that if a disinterested Director who has at
least 10 years of consecutive service as a disinterested Director of any of the
SAMF (an "Eligible Director") retires after reaching age 60 but before age 70 or
dies while a Director, such person will be eligible to receive a retirement or
death benefit from each of the SAMF with respect to which he or she is an
Eligible Director. As of each birthday, prior to the 70th birthday, each
Eligible Director will be credited with an amount equal to (i) 50% of his or her
regular fees (excluding committee fees) for services as a disinterested Director
of each of the SAMF for the calendar year in which such birthday occurs, plus
(ii) 8.5% of any amounts credited under clause (i) during prior years. An
Eligible Director may receive any benefits payable under the Retirement Plan, at
his or her election, either in one lump sum or in up to fifteen annual
installments.

ADVISER, PERSONAL TRADING, DISTRIBUTOR AND ADMINISTRATOR
The Adviser. The Adviser, organized as a Delaware corporation in 1982, is
located at The SunAmerica Center, 733 Third Avenue, New York, NY 10017- 3204,
and serves as adviser to the Fund pursuant to the Investment Advisory and
Management Agreement dated September 23, 1993 (the "Advisory Agreement") with
the Corporation, on behalf of the Fund. The Adviser is an indirect wholly owned
subsidiary of SunAmerica Inc. SunAmerica Inc., is incorporated in the State of
Maryland and maintains its principal executive offices at 1 SunAmerica Center,
Los Angeles, CA 90067-6022, telephone (310) 772-6000.
Under the Advisory Agreement, the Adviser selects and manages the
investments of the Fund, provides various administrative services and supervises
the Fund's daily business affairs, subject to general review by the Directors.
Except to the extent otherwise specified in the Advisory Agreement, the
Fund pays, or causes to be paid, all other expenses of the Corporation and the
Fund, including, without limitation, charges and expenses of any registrar,
custodian, transfer and dividend disbursing agent; brokerage commissions; taxes;
engraving and printing of share certificates; registration costs of the Fund and
its shares under Federal and state securities laws; the cost and expense of
printing, including typesetting, and distributing Prospectuses and Statements of
Additional Information respecting the Fund, and supplements thereto, to the
shareholders of the Fund; all expenses of shareholders' and Directors' meetings
and of preparing, printing and mailing proxy statements and reports to
shareholders; all expenses incident to any dividend, withdrawal or redemption
options; fees and expenses of legal counsel and independent accountants;
membership dues of industry associations; interest on borrowings of the Fund;
postage; insurance premiums on property or personnel (including Officers and
Directors) of the Corporation which inure to its benefit; extraordinary expenses
(including, but not limited to, legal claims and liabilities and litigation
costs and any indemnification relating thereto); and all other costs of the
Corporation's operation.
As compensation for its services to the Fund, the Adviser receives a fee
from the Fund, payable monthly, computed daily at the annual rate of .50% on the
first $600 million of the Fund's average daily net assets, .45% on the next $900
million of net assets and .40% on net assets over $1.5 billion.
The following table sets forth the total advisory fees paid to the Adviser
by the Fund for the fiscal years ended December 31, 1997, 1996 and 1995,
pursuant to the Advisory Agreement.

In accordance with the terms of the Advisory Agreement, if the expenses of
the Fund exceed the amount of the fees paid by the Fund to the Adviser, then the
Adviser will reimburse the Fund the amount of such excess. For the fiscal years
ended December 31, 1997, 1996 and 1995, expense reimbursements were not
required.
The Advisory Agreement continues in effect with respect to the Fund from
year to year, if approved at least annually by vote of a majority of the
Directors or by the holders of a majority of the Fund's outstanding voting
securities. Any such continuation also requires approval by a majority of the
Directors who are not parties to the Advisory Agreement or "interested persons"
of any such party as defined in the 1940 Act by vote cast in person at a meeting
called for such purpose. The Advisory Agreement may be terminated with respect
to the Fund at any time, without penalty, on 60 days' written notice by the
Directors by the holders of a majority of the Fund's outstanding voting
securities or by the Adviser. The Advisory Agreement automatically terminates
with respect to the Fund in the event of its assignment (as defined in the 1940
Act and the rules thereunder).
Under the terms of the Advisory Agreement, the Adviser is not liable to the
Fund, or its shareholders, for any act or omission by it or for any losses
sustained by the Fund or its shareholders, except in the case of willful
misfeasance, bad faith, gross negligence or reckless disregard of duty.
Personal Trading. The Fund and the Adviser have adopted a written Code of Ethics
which prescribes general rules of conduct and sets forth guidelines with respect
to personal securities trading by "Access Persons" thereof. An Access Person as
defined in the Code of Ethics is an individual who is a trustee, director,
officer, general partner or advisory person of the Fund or the Adviser. The
guidelines on personal securities trading include: (i) securities being
considered for purchase or sale, or purchased or sold, by any Investment Company
advised by the Adviser, (ii) Initial Public Offerings, (iii) private placements,
(iv) blackout periods, (v) short-term trading profits, (vi) gifts, and (vii)
services as a director. These guidelines are substantially similar to those
contained in the Report of the Advisory Group on Personal Investing issued by
the Investment Company Institute's Advisory Panel. The Adviser reports to the
Board of Directors on a quarterly basis, as to whether there were any violations
of the Code of Ethics by Access Persons of the Fund or the Adviser during the
quarter.
The Distributor. The Corporation, on behalf of the Fund, has entered into a
distribution agreement (the "Distribution Agreement") with the Distributor, a
registered broker-dealer and an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of SunAmerica
Inc., to act as the principal underwriter of the shares of the Fund. The address
of the Distributor is The SunAmerica Center, 733 Third Avenue, New York, NY
10017-3204. The Distribution Agreement provides that the Distributor has the
exclusive right to distribute shares of the Fund through its registered
representatives and
B-18
<PAGE>
authorized broker-dealers. The Distribution Agreement also provides that the
Distributor will pay the promotional expenses, including the incremental cost of
printing prospectuses, annual reports and other periodic reports respecting the
Fund, for distribution to persons who are not shareholders of the Fund and the
costs of preparing and distributing any other supplemental sales literature.
However, certain promotional expenses may be borne by the Fund (see
"Distribution Plans" below).
The Distribution Agreement continues in effect from year to year with
respect to the Fund if such continuance is approved at least annually by the
Directors, including a majority of the Directors who are not "interested
persons" of the Corporation. The Corporation or the Distributor each has the
right to terminate the Distribution Agreement with respect to the Fund on 60
days' written notice, without penalty. The Distribution Agreement will terminate
automatically in the event of its assignment (as defined in the 1940 Act and the
rules thereunder).
Distribution Plans. As indicated in the Prospectus, the Directors of the
Corporation and the shareholders of each class of shares of the Fund have
adopted Distribution Plans (the "Class A Plan," the "Class B Plan," and the
"Class C Plan," and collectively, the "Distribution Plans"). Reference is made
to "Management of the Corporation - Distribution Plans" in the Prospectus for
certain information with respect to the Distribution Plans.
Under the Class B and Class C Plans, the Distributor may receive payments
from the Fund at the annual rate of up to 0.75% of the average daily net assets
of the Fund's Class B and Class C shares, to compensate the Distributor and
certain securities firms for sales and promotional activities for distributing
each such class of shares. The distribution costs for which the Distributor may
be reimbursed out of such distribution fees include fees paid to broker-dealers
that have sold Fund shares, commissions and other expenses such as sales
literature, prospectus printing and distribution and compensation to
wholesalers. It is possible that in any given year the amount paid to the
Distributor under the Class B and Class C Plans will exceed the Distributor's
distribution costs as described above. The Class A Plan does not provide for a
distribution fee. The Distribution Plans, however, provide that each class of
shares of the Fund may pay the Distributor an account maintenance and service
fee of up to 0.15% of the aggregate average daily net assets of such class of
shares for payments to broker-dealers for providing continuing account
maintenance. In this regard, some payments are used to compensate broker-dealers
with account maintenance and service fees in an amount up to 0.15% per year of
the net assets maintained in the Fund by their customers.
The following table sets forth the distribution fees received by the
Distributor from each class of the Fund's shares for the fiscal years ended
December 31, 1997, 1996 and 1995.

* The Fund commenced offering Class C shares on October 2, 1997.
Continuance of the Distribution Plans with respect to the Fund is subject
to annual approval by vote of the Directors, including a majority of the
Independent Directors. A Distribution Plan may not be amended to increase
materially the amount authorized to be spent thereunder with respect to a class
of shares of the Fund, without approval of the shareholders of the affected
class of shares of the Fund. In addition, all material amendments to the
Distribution Plans must be approved by the Directors in the manner described
above. A Distribution Plan may be terminated at any time with respect to the
Fund without payment of any penalty by vote of a majority of the Independent
Directors or by vote of a majority of the outstanding voting securities (as
defined in the 1940 Act) of the affected class of shares of the Fund. So long as
the Distribution Plans are in effect, the election and nomination of the
Independent Directors of the Corporation shall be committed to the discretion of
the Independent Directors. In the Directors' quarterly review of the
Distribution Plans, they will consider the continued appropriateness of, and the
level of, compensation provided in the Distribution Plans. In their
consideration of the Distribution Plans with respect to the Fund, the Directors
must consider all factors they deem relevant, including information as to the
benefits of the Fund and the shareholders of the relevant class of the Fund.
The Administrator. The Corporation has entered into a Service Agreement, under
the terms of which SunAmerica Fund Services, Inc. ("SAFS"), an indirect wholly
owned subsidiary of SunAmerica Inc., acts as a servicing agent assisting State
Street Bank and Trust Company ("State Street") in connection with certain
services offered to the shareholders of the Fund. Under the terms of the Service
Agreement, SAFS may receive reimbursement of its costs in providing such
shareholder services. SAFS is located at The SunAmerica Center, 733 Third
Avenue, New York, NY 10017-3204.
The Service Agreement continues in effect from year to year provided that
such continuance is approved annually by vote of the Directors including a
majority of the disinterested Directors.
Pursuant to the Service Agreement, as compensation for services rendered,
SAFS receives a fee from the Corporation, computed and payable monthly based
upon an annual rate of 0.22% of average daily net assets subject to review and
approval by the Directors. This fee represents the full cost of providing
shareholder and transfer agency services to the Corporation. From this fee, SAFS
pays a fee to State Street, and its affiliate, National Financial Data Services
("NFDS" and with State Street,
B-20
<PAGE>
the "Transfer Agent")(other than out-of-pocket charges of the Transfer Agent
which are paid by the Corporation). For further information regarding the
Transfer Agent see the section entitled "Additional Information" below.
PORTFOLIO TRANSACTIONS AND BROKERAGE
As discussed in the Prospectus, the Adviser is responsible for decisions to
buy and sell securities for the Fund, selection of broker-dealers and
negotiation of commission rates. Purchases and sales of securities on a
securities exchange are effected through brokers-dealers who charge a negotiated
commission for their services. Orders may be directed to any broker-dealer
including, to the extent and in the manner permitted by applicable law, an
affiliated brokerage subsidiary of SunAmerica Inc.
In the over-the-counter market, securities are generally traded on a "net"
basis with dealers acting as principal for their own accounts without a stated
commission (although the price of the security usually includes a profit to the
dealer). In underwritten offerings, securities are purchased at a fixed price
which includes an amount of compensation to the underwriter, generally referred
to as the underwriter's concession or discount. On occasion, certain money
market instruments may be purchased directly from an issuer, in which case no
commissions or discounts are paid.
The Adviser's primary consideration in effecting a security transaction is
to obtain the best net price and the most favorable execution of the order.
However, the Adviser may select broker-dealers which provide them with research
services and may cause the Fund to pay such broker-dealers commissions which
exceed those that other broker-dealers may have charged, if in its view the
commissions are reasonable in relation to the value of the brokerage and/or
research services provided by the broker-dealer. Certain research services
furnished by brokers may be useful to the Adviser with clients other than the
Corporation. No specific value can be determined for research services furnished
without cost to the Adviser by a broker. The Adviser is of the opinion that
because the material must be analyzed and reviewed by its staff, its receipt
does not tend to reduce expenses, but may be beneficial in supplementing the
Adviser's research and analysis. Therefore, it may tend to benefit the Fund by
improving the quality of the Adviser's investment advice. The investment
advisory fees paid by the Fund are not reduced because the Adviser receives such
services. When making purchases of underwritten issues with fixed underwriting
fees, the Adviser may designate the use of broker-dealers who have agreed to
provide the Adviser with certain statistical, research and other information.
Subject to applicable law and regulations, consideration may also be given
to the willingness of particular brokers to sell shares of the Fund as a factor
in the selection of brokers for transactions effected on behalf of the Fund,
subject to the requirement of best price and execution.
B-21
<PAGE>
Although the objectives of other accounts or investment companies which the
Adviser manages may differ from those of the Fund, it is possible that, at
times, identical securities will be acceptable for purchase by the Fund and one
or more other accounts or investment companies which the Adviser manages.
However, the position of each account or company in the securities of the same
issue may vary with the length of the time that each account or company may
choose to hold its investment in those securities. The timing and amount of
purchase by each account and company will also be determined by its cash
position. If the purchase or sale of a security is consistent with the
investment policies of the Fund and one or more of these other accounts or
companies is considered at or about the same time, transactions in such
securities will be allocated in a manner deemed equitable by the Adviser. The
Adviser may combine such transactions, in accordance with applicable laws and
regulations, where the size of the transaction would enable it to negotiate a
better price or reduced commission. However, simultaneous transactions could
adversely affect the ability of the Fund to obtain or dispose of the full amount
of a security, which it seeks to purchase or sell, or the price at which such
security can be purchased or sold.
For the fiscal years ended December 31, 1997, 1996 and 1995, no brokerage
commissions were paid by the Fund.
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION REGARDING PURCHASE OF SHARES
Shares of the Fund are sold at net asset value next-determined after
receipt of a purchase order, plus for Class B and Class C shares, a deferred
sales charge. Reference is made to "Purchase of Shares" in the Prospectus for
certain information as to the purchase of Fund shares.
The Distributor advised the Fund that it received no contingent deferred
sales charges, with respect to Class C shares of the Fund, for the period
October 2, 1997 (commencement of operations for Class C shares) through December
31, 1997. The Distributor advised the Fund that it received the following
contingent deferred sales charges, with respect to Class B shares of the Fund,
for the fiscal years ended December 31, 1997, 1996 and 1995.

Contingent Deferred Sales Charges ("CDSCs") Applicable to Certain Class B
Shares. Class B shares of the Fund issued to shareholders in exchange for shares
of the Cash Fund in the Reorganization, are subject to the CDSC schedule, if
any, that applied to such shares at the time of Reorganization. In the event
that the shares were originally acquired in an exchange from another SunAmerica
Mutual Fund which imposes a CDSC (a "CDSC Fund"), the CDSC schedule that was
applicable to such shares at the time of the exchange will continue to apply;
provided, that in determining the holding period for such shares, the holding
period prior to such
B-22
<PAGE>
exchange and the holding period following the date of the Reorganization will be
"tacked" or combined. No credit toward the holding period is given for the time
during which the Cash Fund shares were held. For example, if shares of a CDSC
Fund were held by a shareholder for two years prior to an exchange for shares of
Cash Fund, Cash Fund shares were held for one year prior to the Reorganization,
and the Class B shares of the Fund were held for one year prior to redemption,
when the Class B shares are redeemed by the shareholder, they will be subject to
a contingent deferred sales charge as though they were redeemed from the CDSC
Fund three years after the initial investment in the CDSC Fund without regard to
the length of time that the Cash Fund shares were actually held.
The following CDSC schedule applies to shares originally acquired (prior to
the date of the Reorganization) in an exchange from one of the four series of
shares of the SunAmerica Fund Group (i.e., SunAmerica U.S. Government Securities
Fund, SunAmerica High Income Fund, SunAmerica Emerging Growth Fund and
SunAmerica Balanced Assets Fund) or from the SunAmerica Federal Securities Fund:

Any Class B shares purchased after the date of the Reorganization (other
than through the reinvestment of dividends and distributions, which are not
subject to the CDSC) will be subject to the CDSC schedule reflected in the
Prospectus. After the Reorganization, in calculating the contingent deferred
sales charge due upon redemption of Class B shares of the Fund acquired through
an exchange from a CDSC Fund or in the Reorganization, a shareholder will
receive credit toward the holding period for the period of time they held Class
B shares of the Fund.
Conversion Feature Applicable to Class B Shares. Class B shares (including a pro
rata portion of the Class B shares purchased through reinvestment of dividends
and distributions) will convert automatically to Class A shares on the first
business day of the month following the seventh anniversary of issuance of such
Class B shares or, in the case of Class B shares acquired pursuant to the
Reorganization, seven years after the issuance of a shareholder's original CDSC
Fund shares (which were subsequently exchanged for the Cash Fund shares which
were in turn exchanged for Class B shares of the Fund in the Reorganization),
provided, that in calculating such seven-year period, any time during which the
shareholder held the Cash Fund shares will be excluded. For example, if shares
of a CDSC Fund were held by a shareholder for four years and then exchanged for
shares of Cash Fund which were then held for two years as of the date of the
Reorganization, such shareholder's Class B shares of the Fund received in the
Reorganization will convert to Class A shares of the Fund at the end of the
third year following consummation of the Reorganization. The conversion to Class
A shares will be on the basis of the relative net asset values of Class B shares
and Class A shares, without the imposition of any sales load, fee or charge.
Waiver of Contingent Deferred Sales Charges. As discussed under "Purchase of
Shares" in the Prospectus, CDSCs may be waived on redemptions of Class B and
Class C shares under certain circumstances. The conditions set forth below are
applicable with respect to the following situations with the proper
documentation:
Death. CDSCs may be waived on redemptions within one year following the
death (i) of the sole shareholder on an individual account, (ii) of a joint
tenant where the surviving joint tenant is the deceased's spouse, or (iii) of
the beneficiary of a Uniform Gifts to Minors Act, Uniform Transfers to Minors
Act or other custodial account. The CDSC waiver is also applicable in the case
where the shareholder account is registered as community property. If, upon the
occurrence of one of the foregoing, the account is transferred to an account
registered in the name of the deceased's estate, the CDSC will be waived on any
redemption from the estate account occurring within one year of the death. If
the Class B or Class C shares are not redeemed within one year of the death,
they will remain subject to the applicable CDSC, when redeemed.
Disability. CDSCs may be waived on redemptions occurring within one year
after the sole shareholder on an individual account or a joint tenant on a
spousal joint tenant account becomes disabled (as defined in Section 72(m)(7) of
the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code")). To be eligible for
such waiver, (i) the disability must arise after the
B-24
<PAGE>
purchase of shares and (ii) the disabled shareholder must have been under age 65
at the time of the initial determination of disability. If the account is
transferred to a new registration and then a redemption is requested, the
applicable CDSC will be charged.
Purchase through SAFS. SAFS will effect a purchase order on behalf of a customer
who has an investment account upon confirmation of a verified credit balance at
least equal to the amount of the purchase order (subject to the minimum
investment requirements set forth in the Prospectus). Orders for purchases of
shares received by the Distributor by wire transfer in the form of Federal Funds
will be effected at the next-determined net asset value if received at or prior
to the Fund's close of business. Orders for purchases accompanied by check or
other negotiable bank draft will be accepted and effected as of the Fund's close
of business on the next business day following receipt of such order. Shares
will be entitled to receive a dividend, if any, commencing on the next business
day after the day the purchase is effected.
Purchase by Check. Checks should be made payable to the Fund or to "SunAmerica
Funds." If the payment is for a retirement plan account for which the Adviser
serves as fiduciary, please indicate on the check that payment is for such an
account. In the case of a new account, purchase orders by check must be
submitted directly by mail to SunAmerica Fund Services, Inc., Mutual Fund
Operations, The SunAmerica Center, 733 Third Avenue, New York, New York
10017-3204, together with payment for the purchase price of such shares and a
completed New Account Application. Payment for subsequent purchases should be
mailed to SunAmerica Fund Services, Inc., c/o NFDS, P.O. Box 419373, Kansas
City, Missouri 64141- 6373 and the shareholder's account number should appear on
the check. For fiduciary retirement plan accounts, both initial and subsequent
purchases should be mailed to SunAmerica Fund Services, Inc., Mutual Fund
Operations, The SunAmerica Center, 733 Third Avenue, New York, New York
10017-3204. Certified checks are not necessary but checks are accepted subject
to collection at full face value in United States funds and must be drawn on a
bank located in the United States. Upon receipt of the completed New Account
Application and payment check, the Transfer agent will purchase full and
fractional shares of the Fund at the net asset value next computed after the
check is received. Subsequent purchases of shares of the Fund may be purchased
directly through the Transfer Agent. Orders for purchases accompanied by check
or other negotiable bank draft will be accepted and effected as of the Fund's
close of business on the next business day following receipt of such order and
such shares will receive the dividend for the business day following the day the
purchase is effected. SAFS reserves the right to reject any check made payable
other than in the manner indicated above. Under certain circumstances, the Fund
will accept a multi-party check (e.g., a check made payable to the shareholder
by another party and then endorsed by the shareholder to the Fund in payment for
the purchase of shares); however, the processing of such a check may be subject
to a delay. The Fund does not verify the authenticity of the endorsement of such
multi-party check, and acceptance of the check by the Fund should not be
considered verification thereof. Neither the Fund nor its affiliates will be
held liable for any losses
B-25
<PAGE>
incurred as a result of a fraudulent endorsement. There are restrictions on the
redemption of shares purchased by check for which funds are being collected.
(See "Redemption of Shares")
Purchase by Federal Funds Wire. An investor may make purchases by having his or
her bank wire Federal funds to the Corporation's Transfer Agent. Federal funds
purchase orders will be accepted only on a day on which the Corporation and the
Transfer Agent are open for business. Orders for purchase of shares received by
wire transfer in the form of Federal Funds will be effected at the
next-determined net asset value if received at or prior to the Fund's close of
business. Such shares will receive the dividend for the next business day. In
order to insure prompt receipt of a Federal funds wire, it is important that
these steps be followed:
1. You must have an existing SunAmerica Fund Account before wiring funds.
To establish an account, complete the New Account Application and send
it via facsimile to SunAmerica Fund Services, Inc. at: (212) 551-5343.
2. Call SunAmerica Fund Services' Shareholder/Dealer Services, toll free
at (800) 858-8850, extension 5125 to obtain your new account number.
3. Instruct the bank to wire the specified amount to the Transfer Agent:
State Street Bank and Trust Company, Boston, MA, ABA# 0110-00028; DDA#
99029712, SunAmerica [name of Fund, Class __] (include shareholder
name and account number).
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION REGARDING REDEMPTION OF SHARES
Reference is made to "Redemption of Shares" in the Prospectus for certain
information as to the redemption of Fund shares.
If the Directors determine that it would be detrimental to the best
interests of the remaining shareholders of the Fund to make payment wholly or
partly in cash, the Corporation, having filed with the Securities and Exchange
Commission ("SEC") a notification of election pursuant to Rule 18f-1 on behalf
of the Fund, may pay the redemption price in whole, or in part, by a
distribution in kind of securities from the Fund in lieu of cash. In conformity
with applicable rules of the SEC, the Fund is committed to pay in cash all
requests for redemption of Fund shares, by any shareholder of record, limited in
amount with respect to each shareholder during any 90-day period to the lesser
of (i) $250,000, or (ii) 1% of the net asset value of the Fund at the beginning
of such period. If shares are redeemed in kind, the redeeming shareholder would
incur brokerage costs in converting the assets into cash. The method of valuing
portfolio securities is described below in the section entitled "Determination
of Net Asset Value," and such valuation will be made as of the same time the
redemption price is determined.
B-26
<PAGE>
DETERMINATION OF NET ASSET VALUE
The Fund is open for business on any day the New York Stock Exchange
("NYSE") is open for regular trading. Shares are valued each day as of the close
of regular trading on the NYSE (generally, 4:00 p.m., Eastern time). The Fund
calculates the net asset value of each class of its shares separately by
dividing the total value of each class's net assets by the shares outstanding of
such class. The net asset value may not be computed on a day in which no orders
to purchase, sell or redeem Fund shares have been received.
Under applicable rules of the SEC, the valuation of the Fund's investments
is based upon their amortized cost. This entails valuing an instrument at its
cost and thereafter assuming a constant amortization to maturity of any premium
or discount regardless of the impact of fluctuating interest rates on the market
value of the instrument. While this method provides certainty in valuation, it
may result in periods during which the value of an instrument, as determined by
the amortized cost method, is higher or lower than the price the Fund would
receive if it sold the instrument. During periods of rising interest rates, the
daily yield on shares of the Fund computed on an amortized cost basis may tend
to be higher than the like computation made by a mutual fund with identical
investments utilizing a method of valuation based upon market prices. The
converse would apply in a period of declining rates. The purpose of this method
of valuation is to facilitate the maintenance of a constant net asset value per
share of $1.00. There can be no assurance, however, that the Fund will be able
to maintain a stable net asset value of $1.00 per share.
Certain conditions must be met in connection with the application of
valuation rules to the Fund. These conditions include maintaining a
dollar-weighted average portfolio maturity of 90 days or less, purchasing
instruments having remaining maturities of 397 calendar days or less, and
investing only in securities determined by the Adviser under procedures adopted
by the Directors to present minimal credit risks and which are of high quality
as determined by the requisite number of nationally recognized statistical
rating organizations or, in the case of any instrument that is not rated,
determined to be of comparable quality by the Adviser under procedures adopted
by the Directors. In accordance with the applicable regulations, the Directors
have established procedures designed to stabilize at $1.00 the Fund's net asset
value per share to the extent reasonably possible. Such procedures include
review of the Fund's portfolio holdings at such intervals as appropriate to
determine whether the Fund's net asset value, calculated by using available
market quotations, deviates from $1.00 per share based on amortized cost. If
such deviation exceeds .5% of the Fund's $1.00 per share net asset value, the
Directors will promptly consider what action, if any, will be initiated. In the
event that the Directors determine that a deviation exists which may result in
material dilution or other unfair results to investors or existing shareholders,
they will take such corrective action as they deem necessary and appropriate,
which may include selling
B-27
<PAGE>
portfolio instruments, withholding dividends or establishing a net asset value
per share based upon available market quotations.
PERFORMANCE DATA
The Fund may advertise performance data that reflects various measures of
yield. An explanation of the data presented and the methods of computation that
will be used are as follows.
The Fund's performance may be compared to the historical returns of various
investments, performance indices of those investments or economic indicators,
including, but not limited to, stocks, bonds, certificates of deposit, money
market deposit accounts, money market funds and U.S. Treasury Bills. Certain of
these alternative investments may offer fixed rates of return and guaranteed
principal and may be insured.
Yield is determined separately for Class A, Class B and Class C shares of
the Fund in accordance with a standardized formula prescribed by the SEC and is
not indicative of the amounts which were or will be paid to shareholders. The
yield quoted in the Fund's advertisements is computed by determining the net
change, exclusive of capital changes, in the value of a hypothetical
pre-existing account having a balance of one share at the beginning of the 7-day
period. A hypothetical charge reflecting deductions for shareholder accounts is
subtracted from the above net change and the difference is divided by the value
of the account at the beginning of the 7-day period. The resulting figure is
multiplied by 365 divided by seven and carried to the nearest one hundredth of
one percent.
Effective yield quoted in the Fund's advertisements is computed by
determining the net change, exclusive of capital changes, in the value of a
hypothetical pre-existing account having a balance of one share at the beginning
of the 7-day period. A hypothetical charge reflecting deductions from
shareholder accounts is subtracted from the above net change and the difference
is divided by the value of the account at the beginning of the 7-day period. The
resulting figure is then compounded by adding one, raising the sum to a power
equal to 365 divided by seven, and subtracting one. The following formula
illustrates the effective yield computation.
[(Base period return + 1) 365/7] - 1
The following table sets forth the Fund's yield and effective yield for the
Class A, Class B and Class C shares for the 7-day periods ended December 31,
1997, 1996 and 1995.

Comparisons
The Fund may compare its yield to similar measures as calculated by various
publications, services, indices, or averages. Such comparisons are made to
assist in evaluating an investment in the Fund. The following references may be
used:
a) Lipper: Mutual Fund Performance Analysis, Fixed Income Analysis, and
Mutual Fund Indices -- measures total return and average current yield for the
mutual fund industry. Ranks individual mutual fund performance over specified
time periods assuming reinvestment of all distributions, exclusive of sales
charges.
b) CDA Mutual Fund Report, published by CDA Investment Technologies, Inc.,
analyzes price, current yield, risk, total return, and average rate of return
(average annual compounded growth rate) over specified time periods for the
mutual fund industry.
c) Stocks, Bonds, Bills, and Inflation, published by Ibbotson Associates --
historical measure of yield, price, and total return for common and small
company stock, long-term government bonds, treasury bills, and inflation.
d) IBC/Donoghue's Inc. Money Fund Report -- comprehensive evaluation of
money market funds which monitors portfolio characteristics on a weekly basis.
The Report provides the information with respect to yield, average maturity,
security selection (asset allocation) and credit quality.
In assessing such comparisons of performance, an investor should keep in
mind that the composition of the investments in the reported indices and
averages is not identical to the Fund's portfolio, that the averages are
generally unmanaged and that the items included in the calculations of such
averages may not be identical to the formula used by the Fund to calculate its
figures. Specifically, the Fund may compare its performance to that of certain
indices which include securities with government guarantees. However, the Fund's
shares do not contain any such guarantees. In addition, there can be no
assurance that the Fund will continue its performance as compared to such other
standards.

DIVIDENDS, DISTRIBUTIONS AND TAXES
Dividends and Distributions. The Fund intends to distribute to the registered
holders of its shares all or substantially all of its net investment income,
which includes dividends, interest and net short-term capital gains, if any, in
excess of any net long-term capital losses. The Fund intends to distribute any
long-term capital gains in excess of any net short-term capital losses.
Dividends from net investment income are declared daily and paid monthly.
Dividends are paid on or about the fifteenth day of the month. Net capital
gains, if any, will be paid annually. In determining amounts of capital gains to
be distributed, any capital loss carry-forwards from prior years will be offset
against capital gains. At December 31, 1997, the Fund had a capital loss
carryforward of $32,508, which is available to the extent not utilized to offset
future gains from 2002 through 2004. The utilization of such losses will be
subject to annual limitations under the Code and the regulations thereunder.
Dividends and distributions are paid in additional Fund shares based on the
net asset value at the close of business on the record date, unless the
dividends total in excess of $10 per distribution period and the shareholder
notifies the Fund at least five business days prior to the payment date to
receive such distributions in cash.
If a shareholder has elected to receive dividends and/or capital gain
distributions in cash, and the postal or other delivery service is unable to
deliver checks to the shareholder's address of record, no interest will accrue
on amounts represented by uncashed dividend or distribution checks.
Taxes. The Fund is qualified and intends to remain qualified and elects to be
treated as a regulated investment company under Subchapter M of the Code for
each taxable year. In order to remain qualified as a regulated investment
company, the Fund generally must, among other things, (a) derive at least 90% of
its gross income from dividends, interest, proceeds from loans of stock or
securities and certain other related income; and (b) diversify its holdings so
that, at the end of each fiscal quarter, (i) 50% of the market value of the
Fund's assets is represented by cash, government securities, securities of other
regulated investment companies and other securities limited, in respect of any
one issuer, to an amount not greater than 5% of the Fund's assets and not
greater than 10% of the outstanding voting securities of such issuer, and (ii)
not more than 25% of the value of its assets is invested in the securities of
any one issuer (other than government securities or the securities of other
regulated investment companies).
As a regulated investment company, the Fund will not be subject to U.S.
Federal income tax on its income and gains which it distributes as dividends or
capital gains distributions to shareholders provided that it distributes to
shareholders at least 90% of its investment company taxable income for the
taxable year. The Fund intends to distribute sufficient income to meet this
qualification requirement.
B-30
<PAGE>
Under the Code, amounts not distributed on a timely basis in accordance
with a calendar year distribution requirement are subject to a nondeductible 4%
excise tax. To avoid the tax, the Fund must distribute during each calendar year
(1) at least 98% of its ordinary income (not taking into account any capital
gains or losses) for the calendar year, (2) at least 98% of its net capital
gains, i.e., capital gains in excess of its capital losses for the 12-month
period ending on October 31 of the calendar year, and (3) all ordinary income
and net capital gains for previous years that were not distributed during such
years. To avoid application of the excise tax, the Fund intends to make
distributions in accordance with the calendar year distribution requirement.
Generally, a distribution will be subject to tax in the year it is received.
However, distribution will be treated as paid on December 31 of the calendar
year if declared by the Fund in October, November or December of such year,
payable to shareholders of record on a date in such month and paid by the Fund
during January of the following year. Any such distributions paid during January
of the following year will be taxable to shareholders as of December 31, rather
than the date on which the distributions are received.
Distributions of net investment income and short-term capital gains
("ordinary income dividends") are taxable to a shareholder as ordinary dividend
income regardless of whether the shareholder receives such distributions in
additional shares or in cash. Distributions of net capital gains, if any, are
taxable as capital gains regardless of whether the shareholder receives such
distributions in additional shares or in cash or how long the investor has held
his or her shares. Recent legislation created various categories of capital
gains. Dividends and distributions paid by the Fund will not be eligible for the
dividends received deduction for corporations.
Upon a sale or exchange of its shares, a shareholder may realize a taxable
gain or loss depending upon its basis in the shares. Such gain or loss will be
treated as capital gain or loss if the shares are capital assets in the
shareholder's hands. In the case of an individual, any such capital gain will be
treated as short-term capital gain if the shares were held for not more than 12
months, capital gain taxable at the maximum rate of 28% if such shares were held
for more than 12, but not more than 18 months, and capital gain, taxable at the
maximum rate of 20%, if such shares were held for more than 18 months. In the
case of a corporation, any such capital gain will be treated as long-term
capital gain, taxable at the same rates as ordinary income, if such shares were
held for more than 12 months. Any such capital loss will be long-term capital
gain or loss if the shares have been held for more than one year. The amount of
any CDSC will reduce the amount realized on the sale or exchange of shares for
purposes of determining gain or loss. Generally, any loss realized on a sale or
exchange will be disallowed to the extent the shares disposed of are replaced
within a period of 61 days beginning 30 days before and ending 30 days after the
shares are disposed of. Any loss realized by a shareholder on the sale of shares
of the Fund held by the shareholder for six months or less will be treated for
tax purposes as a long-term capital loss to the extent of any distributions of
net capital gains received by the shareholder with respect to such shares.
B-31
<PAGE>
Under certain circumstances (such as the exercise of an exchange privilege
in certain cases), the tax effect of sales load charges imposed on the purchase
of shares in a regulated investment company is deferred if the shareholder does
not hold the shares for at least 90 days.
Income received by the Fund from sources within foreign countries may be
subject to withholding and other taxes imposed by such countries. Income tax
treaties between certain countries and the United States may reduce or eliminate
such taxes. It is impossible to determine in advance the effective rate of
foreign tax to which the Fund will be subject, since the amount of the Fund's
assets to be invested in various countries is not known. It is not anticipated
that the Fund will qualify to pass through to shareholders the ability to claim
as a foreign tax credit their respective shares of foreign taxes paid by the
Fund.
The Fund may be required to backup withhold U.S. Federal income tax at the
rate of 31% of all taxable distributions payable to shareholders who fail to
provide their correct taxpayer identification number or fail to make required
certifications, or who have been notified by the Internal Revenue Service that
they are subject to backup withholding. Backup withholding is not an additional
tax. Any amounts withheld may be credited against a shareholder's U.S. Federal
income tax liability.
Foreign shareholders generally will be subject to a withholding tax at the
rate of 30% (or lower treaty rate) on any ordinary income dividends pay by the
Fund.
The foregoing is a general and abbreviated summary of the applicable
provisions of the Code and Treasury regulations currently in effect.
Shareholders are urged to consult their tax advisers regarding specific
questions as to Federal, state and local taxes. In addition, foreign investors
should consult with their own tax advisers regarding the particular tax
consequences, including foreign tax consequences, to them of an investment in
the Fund. Qualification as a regulated investment company under the Code for tax
purposes does not entail government supervision of management or investment
policies.
RETIREMENT PLANS
Shares of the Fund are eligible to be purchased in conjunction with various
types of qualified retirement plans. The summary below is only a brief
description of the Federal income tax laws for each plan and does not purport to
be complete. Further information or an application to invest in shares of the
Fund by establishing any of the retirement plans described below may be obtained
by calling Retirement Plans at (800) 858- 8850. However, it is recommended that
a shareholder considering any retirement plan consult a tax adviser before
participating.
B-32
<PAGE>
Pension and Profit-Sharing Plans. Sections 401(a) and 401(k) of the Code permit
business employers and certain associations to establish pension and profit
sharing plans for employees. Shares of the Fund may be purchased by those who
would have been covered under the rules governing old H.R. 10 (Keogh) Plans, as
well as by corporate plans. Each business retirement plan provides tax
advantages for owners and participants. Contributions made by the employer are
tax-deductible, and participants do not pay taxes on contributions or earnings
until withdrawn.
Tax-Sheltered Custodial Accounts. Section 403(b)(7) of the Code permits public
school employees and employees of certain types of charitable, educational and
scientific organizations specified in Section 501(c)(3) of the Code, to purchase
shares of the Fund and, subject to certain limitations, exclude the amount of
purchase payments from gross income for tax purposes.
Individual Retirement Accounts (IRA). Section 408 of the Code permits eligible
individuals to contribute to an individual retirement program, including
Simplified Employee Pension Plans, commonly referred to as SEP-IRA. Section 408A
of the Code treats Roth IRAs as IRAs subject to certain special rules applicable
thereto. IRAs are subject to limitations with respect to the amount that may be
contributed, the eligibility of individuals to make contributions, the amount if
any, entitled to be contributed on a deductible basis, and the time in which
distributions would be allowed to commence. In addition, certain distributions
from some other types of retirement plans may be placed on a tax-deferred basis
in an IRA.
Salary Reduction Simplified Employee Pension (SARSEP). This plan was introduced
by a provision of the Tax Reform Act of 1986 as a unique way for small employers
to provide the benefit of retirement planning for their employees. Contributions
are deducted from the employee's paycheck before tax deductions and are
deposited into an IRA by the employer. These contributions are not included in
the employee's income and therefore are not reported or deducted on his or her
tax return.
Savings Incentive Match Plan for Employees (SIMPLE IRA). This plan was
introduced by a provision of the Small Business Job Protection Act of 1996 to
provide small employers with a simplified tax-favored retirement plan.
Contributions are deducted from the employee's paycheck before taxes and are
deposited into a SIMPLE IRA by the employer, who must make either matching
contributions or non-elective contributions. Contributions are tax-deductible
for the employer and participants do not pay taxes on contributions on earnings
until they are withdrawn.
Roth IRA. This plan, introduced by Section 302 of the Taxpayer Relief Act of
1997, generally permits individuals with adjusted gross income of up to $95,000,
and married couples with joint adjusted gross income of up to $150,000, to
contribute to a "Roth IRA." Contributions are not tax-deductible, but
distribution of assets (contributions and earnings) held in the account for at
least five years may be distributed tax-free under certain qualifying
conditions.
B-33
<PAGE>
Education IRA. Established by the Taxpayer Relief Act of 1997, under Section 530
of the Code, this plan permits individuals to contribute to an IRA on behalf of
any child under the age of 18. Contributions are not tax-deductible but
distributions are tax-free if used for qualified educational expenses.
DESCRIPTION OF SHARES
Ownership of the Corporation is represented by transferable shares of
common stock, having a par value of $.001 per share. The Articles of
Incorporation, as amended to date (the "Articles of Incorporation"), authorize
the Corporation to issue 10 billion shares of common stock and to divide or
combine the shares into a greater or lesser number of shares without thereby
changing the proportionate interests of shareholders of the Corporation.
Currently, one series of shares of the Corporation, the Fund, has been
authorized pursuant to the Articles of Incorporation. This series has been
divided into three classes of shares, designated as Class A, Class B and Class C
shares. The Directors may authorize the creation of additional series of shares
so as to be able to offer to investors additional investment portfolios within
the Corporation that would operate independently from the Corporation's present
portfolio, or to distinguish among shareholders, as may be necessary, to comply
with future regulations or other unforeseen circumstances. Each series of the
Corporation's shares, in the event that more than one series is authorized, will
represent the interests of the shareholders of that series in a particular
portfolio of the Corporation's assets. In addition, the Directors may authorize
the creation of additional classes of shares in the future.
Shareholders are entitled to a full vote for each full share held. The
Directors have terms of unlimited duration (subject to certain removal
procedures) and have the power to alter the number of Directors, and appoint
their own successors, provided that at all times at least a majority of the
Directors have been elected by shareholders. The voting rights of shareholders
are not cumulative, so that holders of more than 50% of the shares voting can,
if they choose, elect all Directors being elected, while the holders of the
remaining shares would be unable to elect any Directors. Although the
Corporation need not hold annual meetings of shareholders, the Directors may
call special meetings of shareholders for action by shareholder vote as may be
required by the 1940 Act, Maryland law, the Articles of Incorporation or the
By-Laws of the Corporation (the "By-Laws"). Also, a shareholders meeting must be
called, if so requested in writing by the holders of record of 10% or more of
the outstanding shares of the Corporation. In addition, the Directors may be
removed only for cause by the action of the holders of record of at least a
majority of all outstanding shares entitled to vote for election of Directors.
All series of shares will vote with respect to certain matters, such as election
of Directors. When all series of shares, to the extent that more than one series
is authorized, are not affected by a matter to be voted upon, such as approval
of investment advisory agreements or changes in a series' policies, only
shareholders of the series affected by the matter may be entitled to vote.
B-34
<PAGE>
The three classes of shares of the Fund are identical in all respects,
except that (i) each class may bear differing amounts of certain class-specific
expenses, (ii) Class A shares are subject to an ongoing account maintenance and
service fee, (iii) Class B and Class C shares are subject to a contingent
deferred sales charge, a distribution fee and an ongoing account maintenance and
service fee, (iv) Class B shares convert automatically to Class A shares on the
first business day of the month seven years after the purchase of such Class B
shares, (v) each class has voting rights on matters that pertain to the Rule
12b-1 plan adopted with respect to such class, except that under certain
circumstances, the holders of Class B shares may be entitled to vote on material
changes to the Class A Rule 12b-1 plan, and (vi) each class of shares will be
exchangeable only into the same class of shares of other funds in the SAMF that
offers that class. All shares of the Corporation issued and outstanding and all
shares offered by the Prospectus when issued, are and will be fully paid and
non-assessable. Shares have no preemptive or other subscription rights and are
freely transferable on the books of the Corporation. In addition, shares have no
conversion rights, except as described above.
The By-Laws provide that the Corporation shall indemnify any person who was
or is a Director, officer or employee of the Corporation to the maximum extent
permitted by Maryland law and the 1940 Act upon a determination, made in
accordance with the terms of the By-Laws, that indemnification is proper in the
circumstances. In addition, the By-Laws provide that the Corporation may
maintain insurance on behalf of any person who is or was a director or officer,
employee or agent of the Corporation or who is or was serving at the request of
the Corporation as director, officer, agent or employee of another corporation,
partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise against any liability

SUNAMERICA MONEY MARKET FUND
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--DECEMBER 31, 1997
NOTE 1. ORGANIZATION
SunAmerica Money Market Fund (the "Fund") is an open-end diversified
management investment company organized as a Maryland Corporation.
The Fund currently offers Class A shares, Class B shares and Class C shares.
The offering price is the next determined net asset value per share. For
Class B shares, a declining contingent deferred sales charge ("CDSC") is
imposed on certain redemptions made within six years. Class B shares of the
Fund convert automatically to Class A shares on the first business day of
the month seven years after the issuance of such Class B shares and at such
time are no longer subject to a distribution fee. Class C shares may be
subject to a contingent deferred sales charge on redemptions made within one
year of purchase. Each class of shares bears the same voting, dividend,
liquidation and other rights and conditions and each makes account
maintenance and service fee payments under a distribution plan pursuant to
Rule 12b-1 under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the "1940 Act") except
that Class B shares and Class C shares are subject to distribution fees.
NOTE 2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The following is a summary of the significant accounting policies followed
by the Fund in the preparation of its financial statements:
SECURITY VALUATIONS: Portfolio securities are valued at amortized cost,
which approximates market value. The amortized cost method involves valuing
a security at its cost on the date of purchase and thereafter assuming a
constant amortization to maturity of any discount or premium.
REPURCHASE AGREEMENTS: The Fund, along with other affiliated registered
investment companies, may transfer uninvested cash balances into a single
joint account, the daily aggregate balance of which is invested in one or
more repurchase agreements collateralized by U.S. Treasury or federal agency
obligations. The Fund's custodian takes possession of the collateral pledged
for investments in repurchase agreements. The underlying collateral is
valued daily on a mark to market basis to ensure that the value, including
accrued interest, is at least equal to the repurchase price. In the event of
default of the obligation to repurchase, the Fund has the right to liquidate
the collateral and apply the proceeds in satisfaction of the obligation. If
the seller defaults and the value of the collateral declines or if
bankruptcy proceedings are commenced with respect to the seller of the
security, realization of the collateral by the Fund may be delayed or
limited.
SECURITIES TRANSACTIONS, INVESTMENT INCOME AND DISTRIBUTIONS TO
SHAREHOLDERS: Securities transactions are recorded as of the trade date.
Interest income, including the accretion of discount and amortization of
premium, is accrued daily. Realized gains and losses on sales of investments
are calculated on the identified cost basis.
Net investment income other than class specific expenses, and realized and
unrealized gains and losses are allocated daily to each class of shares
based upon the relative net asset value of outstanding shares of each
class of shares at the beginning of the day (after adjusting for the current
capital shares activity of the respective class).
Dividends from net investment income are declared daily and paid monthly.
USE OF ESTIMATES IN FINANCIAL STATEMENT PREPARATION: The preparation of
financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect
the reported amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Actual
results could differ from these estimates.
<PAGE>
SUNAMERICA MONEY MARKET FUND
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--DECEMBER 31, 1997--(CONTINUED)
FEDERAL INCOME TAXES: It is the Fund's policy to meet the requirements of
the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, applicable to regulated
investment companies and to distribute all of its taxable net income to its
shareholders. Therefore, no federal income or excise tax provisions are
required.
During the year ended December 31, 1997, the Fund utilized $769 of capital
loss carryforwards. At December 31, 1997, the Fund had a capital loss
carryforward available of $32,508 which will expire as follows:
EXPIRATION
------------------------------------------------------------
2002 2003 2004
------ ------- -------
$5,123 $11,725 $15,660
To the extent that these capital loss carryforwards are utilized to offset
future net realized gains on securities transactions, the gain, so offset
will not be distributed to the shareholders, to the extent provided by the
regulations.
Capital losses incurred after October 31 within the Fund's fiscal year are
deemed to arise on the first business day of the following fiscal year for
tax purposes. The Fund has incurred and will elect to defer $1,994 of such
capital losses.
NOTE 3. JOINT REPURCHASE AGREEMENT ACCOUNT
As of December 31, 1997, the Fund had a 5.92% undivided interest, which
represented $7,912,000 in principal amount, in a repurchase agreement in a
joint account with other SunAmerica managed funds. As of such date, the
repurchase agreement in the joint account and the collateral therefore was
as follows:
PaineWebber, Inc., Repurchase Agreement, 6.30% dated 12/31/97, in the
principal amount of $133,556,000 repurchase price $133,602,745 due 1/2/98
collateralized by $100,200,000 U.S. Treasury Notes 6.25% due 3/31/99 and
$33,356,000 U.S. Treasury Notes 4.75% due 10/31/98, approximate aggregate
value $137,737,768.
NOTE 4. INVESTMENT ADVISORY AND MANAGEMENT AGREEMENT, DISTRIBUTION AGREEMENT
AND SERVICE AGREEMENT
The Fund has an Investment Advisory and Management Agreement (the
"Agreement") with SunAmerica Asset Management Corp. ("SAAMCo"), an indirect
wholly owned subsidiary of SunAmerica Inc. Under the Agreement, SAAMCo
provides continuous supervision of the Fund's portfolio and administers its
corporate affairs, subject to general review by the Directors. In connection
therewith, SAAMCo furnishes the Fund with office facilities, maintains
certain of the Fund's books and records, and pays the salaries and expenses
of all personnel, including officers of the Fund who are employees of SAAMCo
and its affiliates. The investment advisory and management fee to SAAMCo is
computed daily and payable monthly, at an annual rate of .50% on the first
$600 million of the Fund's daily net assets, .45% on the next $900 million
of net assets and .40% on net assets over $1.5 billion.
SunAmerica has voluntarily agreed to waive fees or reimburse expenses, if
necessary, to keep annual operating expenses at or below 1.75% for Class C
Shares. For the year ended December 31, 1997, SAAMCO reimbursed $5,383 of
expenses.
The Fund has a Distribution Agreement with SunAmerica Capital Services, Inc.
("SACS" or the "Distributor"), an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of
SunAmerica Inc. The Fund has adopted a Distribution Plan (the "Plan") in
accordance with the provisions of Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act. Rule 12b-1
permits an investment company directly or indirectly to pay expenses
associated with the distribution of its shares ("distribution expenses") in
accordance with a plan adopted by the investment company's board of
directors and approved by its shareholders. Pursuant to such rule, the
Directors and the shareholders of each class of shares of the Fund have
adopted Distribution Plans hereinafter referred to as the "Class A Plan,"
the "Class B Plan" and the "Class C Plan".
<PAGE>
SUNAMERICA MONEY MARKET FUND
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--DECEMBER 31, 1997--(CONTINUED)
In adopting the Class A Plan, the Class B Plan and the Class C Plan, the
Directors determined that there was a reasonable likelihood that each such
Plan would benefit the Fund and the shareholders of the respective class.
The sales charge and distribution fees of the Class B shares and Class C
shares will not be used to subsidize the sale of Class A shares.
Under the Class B Plan and the Class C Plan the Distributor receives
payments from the Fund at the annual rate of up to 0.75% of the average
daily net assets of the Fund's Class B and Class C shares, to compensate the
Distributor and certain securities firms for providing sales and promotional
activities for distributing that class of shares. The distribution costs for
which the Distributor may be reimbursed out of such distribution fees
include fees paid to broker-dealers that have sold Fund shares, commissions,
and other expenses such as those incurred for sales literature, prospectus
printing and distribution and compensation to wholesalers. It is possible
that in any given year the amount paid to the Distributor under the Class B
and Class C Plan may exceed the Distributor's distribution costs as
described above. The Class A Plan does not provide for a distribution fee.
The Distribution Plans provide that each class of shares of the Fund may
also pay the Distributor an account maintenance and service fee of up to an
annual rate of 0.15% of the aggregate average daily net assets of such class
of shares for payments to broker-dealers for providing continuing account
maintenance. In this regard, some payments are used to compensate broker-
dealers with account maintenance and service fees in an amount up to 0.15%
per year of the assets maintained in the Fund by their customers. For the
year ended December 31, 1997, SACS earned fees of $993,011 from the Fund.
SACS also receives the proceeds of contingent deferred sales charges paid by
investors in connection with certain redemptions of the Fund's Class B and
Class C shares. For the year ended December 31, 1997, SACS informed the Fund
that it received approximately $169,724 in contingent deferred sales
charges.
The Fund has entered into a Service Agreement with SunAmerica Fund Services,
Inc. ("SAFS"), an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of SunAmerica Inc. Under
the Service Agreement, SAFS performs certain shareholder account functions
by assisting the Fund's transfer agent in connection with the services that
it offers to the shareholders of the Fund. The Service Agreement permits the
Fund to reimburse SAFS for costs incurred in providing such services which
is approved annually by the Directors. For the year ended December 31, 1997
the Fund (Class A, Class B and Class C) incurred expenses of $1,098,999 to
reimburse SAFS pursuant to the terms of the Service Agreement. Of this
amount, $102,208 was payable to SAFS at December 31, 1997.

NOTE 6. DIRECTORS' RETIREMENT PLAN
The Directors (and Trustees) of the SunAmerica Family of Mutual Funds have
adopted the SunAmerica Disinterested Trustees' and Directors' Retirement
Plan (the "Retirement Plan") effective January 1, 1993 for the unaffiliated
Directors. The Retirement Plan provides generally that if an unaffiliated
Director who has at least 10 years of consecutive service as a Disinterested
Director of any of the SunAmerica mutual funds (an "Eligible Director")
retires after reaching age 60 but before age 70 or dies while a Director,
such person will be eligible to receive a retirement or death benefit from
each SunAmerica mutual fund with respect to which he or she is an Eligible
Director. As of each birthday, prior to the 70th birthday, but in no event
for a period greater than 10 years, each Eligible Director will be credited
with an amount equal to 50% of his or her regular fees (excluding committee
fees) for services as a Disinterested Director of each SunAmerica mutual
fund for the calendar year in which such birthday occurs. In addition, an
amount equal to 8.5% of any amounts credited under the preceding clause
during prior years, is added to each Eligible Director's account until such
Eligible Director reaches his or her 70th birthday. An Eligible Director may
receive benefits payable under the Retirement Plan, at his or her election,
either in one lump sum or in up to fifteen annual installments. As of
December 31, 1997, the Fund had accrued $48,287 for the Retirement Plan,
which is included in accrued expenses on the Statement of Assets and
Liabilities and for the year ended December 31, 1997, expensed $17,926 for
the Retirement Plan, which is included in Directors' fees and expenses on
the Statement of Operations.

SUNAMERICA MONEY MARKET FUND
REPORT OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS
To the Board of Directors and Shareholders of SunAmerica Money Market Fund
In our opinion, the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities, including
the portfolio of investments, and the related statements of operations and of
changes in net assets and the financial highlights present fairly, in all
material respects, the financial position of SunAmerica Money Market Fund (the
"Fund") at December 31, 1997, the results of its operations for the year then
ended, the changes in its net assets for each of the two years in the period
then ended and the financial highlights for each of the five years in the
period then ended, in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.
These financial statements and financial highlights (hereafter referred to as
"financial statements") are the responsibility of the Fund's management; our
responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on
our audits. We conducted our audits of these financial statements in accordance
with generally accepted auditing standards which require that we plan and
perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial
statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a
test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial
statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates
made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement
presentation. We believe that our audits, which included confirmation of
securities at December 31, 1997 by correspondence with the custodian, provide a
reasonable basis for the opinion expressed above.

APPENDIX
BOND, NOTE AND COMMERCIAL PAPER RATINGS
Description of Applicable Moody's Investors Service, Inc.'s ("Moody's")
Corporate Bond Ratings
Aaa Bonds which are rated Aaa are judged to be of the best quality. They
carry the smallest degree of investment risk and are generally
referred to as "gilt edge." Interest payments are protected by a large
or by an exceptionally stable margin and principal is secure. While
the various protective elements are likely to change, such changes as
can be visualized are most unlikely to impair the fundamentally strong
position of such issues.
Aa Bonds which are rated Aa are judged to be of high quality by all
standards. Together with the Aaa group they comprise what are
generally known as high grade bonds. They are rated lower than the
best bonds because margins of protection may not be as large as in Aaa
securities or fluctuation of protective elements may be of greater
amplitude or there may be other elements present which make the
long-term risks appear somewhat larger than in Aaa securities.
Note: Moody's may apply numerical modifiers 1, 2 and 3 to issues rated Aa
to denote relative strength within such classification. The modifier 1 indicates
that the security ranks in the higher end of the Aa rating category; the
modifier 2 indicates a mid-range ranking; and the modifier 3 indicates that the
issue ranks in the lower end of the Aa rating category.
Description of Applicable Moody's Note Ratings
MIG 1 Notes bearing the designation MIG 1 are judged to be of the best
quality, enjoying strong protection from established cash flows of
funds for their servicing or from established and broad-based access
to the market for refinancing, or both.
MIG 2 Notes bearing the designation MIG 2 are judged to be of high
quality, with margins of protection ample although not so large as
in the preceding group.
Description of Applicable Moody's Commercial Paper Ratings
The term "commercial paper" as used by Moody's means promissory obligations
not having an original maturity in excess of nine months. Moody's makes no
representations as to whether such commercial paper is by any other definition
"commercial paper" or is exempt from registration under the Securities Act.
Appendix-1
<PAGE>
Moody's commercial paper ratings are opinions of the ability of issuers to
repay punctually promissory obligations not having an original maturity in
excess of nine months. Moody's makes no representation that such obligations are
exempt from registration under the Securities Act, nor does it represent that
any specific note is a valid obligation of a rated issuer or issued in
conformity with any applicable law.
Issuers rated P-1 (or related supporting institutions) have a superior
capacity for repayment of short-term promissory obligations. P-1 repayment
capacity will normally be evidenced by the following characteristics:
-- Leading market positions in well established industries
-- High rates of return on funds employed
-- Conservative capitalization structures with moderate reliance on debt
and ample asset protection
-- Broad margins in earnings coverage of fixed financial charges and high
internal cash generation
-- Well established access to a range of financial markets and assured
sources of alternate liquidity.
Issuers rated P-2 (or related supporting institutions) have a strong
capacity for repayment of short-term promissory obligations. This will normally
be evidenced by many of the characteristics cited above but to a lesser degree.
Earnings trends and coverage ratios, while sound, will be more subject to
variation. Capitalization characteristics, while still appropriate, may be more
affected by external conditions. Ample alternate liquidity is maintained.
If an issuer represents to Moody's that its commercial paper obligations
are supported by the credit of another entity or entities, then the name or
names of such supporting entity or entities are listed within parentheses
beneath the name of the issuer, or there is a footnote referring the reader to
another page for the name or names of the supporting entity or entities. In
assigning ratings to such issuers, Moody's evaluates the financial strength of
the indicated affiliated corporations, commercial banks, insurance companies,
foreign governments or other entities, but only as one factor in the total
rating assessment. Moody's makes no representation and gives no opinion on the
legal validity or enforceability of any support arrangement. You are cautioned
to review with your counsel any questions regarding particular support
arrangements.
Among the factors considered by Moody's in assigning ratings are the
following: (1) evaluation of the management of the issuer; (2) economic
evaluation of the issuer's industry or industries and an appraisal of
speculative type risks which may be inherent in certain areas; (3) evaluation of
the issuer's products in relation to competition and customer acceptance; (4)
liquidity; (5) amount and quality of long-term debt; (6) trend of earnings over
a period of ten years; (7) financial strength of a parent company and the
relationships which exist with the issuer; and (8) recognition by management of
obligations which may be
Appendix-2
<PAGE>
present or may arise as a result of public interest questions and preparations
to meet such obligations.
Description of Applicable Standard & Poor's Ratings Services, a Division
of The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc. ("S&P") Bond Ratings
An S&P corporate rating is a current assessment of the creditworthiness of
an obligor with respect to a specific obligation. This assessment may take into
consideration obligers such as guarantors, insurers, or lessees.
The debt rating is not a recommendation to purchase, sell or hold a
security, inasmuch as it does not comment as to market price or suitability for
a particular investor.
The ratings are based on current information furnished by the issuer or
obtained by S&P from other sources it considers reliable. S&P does not perform
an audit in connection with any rating and may, on occasion, rely on unaudited
financial information. The ratings may be changed, suspended or withdrawn as a
result of changes in, or unavailability of, such information, or for other
reasons.
The ratings are based, in varying degrees, on the following considerations:
(1) likelihood of default capacity and willingness of the obligor as to the
timely payment of interest and repayment of principal in accordance with the
terms of the obligation; (2) nature of and provisions of the obligation; and (3)
protection afforded by, and relative position of, the obligation in the event of
bankruptcy, reorganization or other arrangement under the laws of bankruptcy and
other laws affecting creditors' rights.
AAA Debt rated AAA has the highest rating assigned by S&P. Capacity to pay
interest and repay principal is extremely strong.
AA Debt rated AA has a very strong capacity to pay interest and repay
principal and differs from the highest-rated issues only in small
degree.
Plus (+) or minus (-): The rating of "AA" may be modified by the addition
of a plus or minus sign to show relative standing within these ratings
categories.
Provisional ratings:
P The letter "p" indicates that the rating is provisional. A provisional
rating assumes the successful completion of the project being financed
by the debt being rated and indicates that payment of debt service
requirements is largely or entirely dependent upon the successful and
timely completion of the project. This rating, however, while
addressing credit quality subsequent to completion of the project,
makes no
Appendix-3
<PAGE>
comment on the likelihood or risk of default upon failure of such
completion. The investor should exercise judgment with respect to such
likelihood and risk.
L The letter "L" indicates that the rating pertains to the principal
amount of those bonds to the extent that the underlying deposit
collateral is insured by the Federal Savings & Loan Insurance Corp. or
the Federal Deposit Insurance Corp. and interest is adequately
collateralized.
* Continuance of the rating is contingent upon S&P receipt of an
executed copy of the escrow agreement or closing documentation
confirming investments and cash flows.
NR Indicates that no rating has been requested, that there is
insufficient information on which to base a rating or that S&P does
not rate a particular type of obligation as a matter of policy.
Debt Obligations of Issuers outside the United States and its territories
are rated on the same basis as domestic corporate issues. The ratings measure
the credit worthiness of the obligor but do not take into account currency
exchange and related uncertainties.
Applicable Bond Investment Quality Standards: Under present commercial bank
regulations issued by the Comptroller of the Currency, bonds rated "AAA" or "AA"
(commonly known as "investment grade" ratings) are generally regarded as
eligible for bank investment. In addition, the laws of various states governing
legal investments impose certain rating or other standards for obligations
eligible for investment by savings banks, trust companies, insurance companies
and fiduciaries generally.
Description of Applicable S&P Note Ratings
SP-1 The designation "SP-1" indicates a very strong capacity to pay
principal and interest. A "+" is added for those issues determined to
possess overwhelming safety characteristics.
SP-2 An "SP-2" designation indicates a satisfactory capacity to pay
principal and interest.
Appendix-4
<PAGE>
Description of Applicable S&P Commercial Paper Ratings.
A S&P commercial paper rating is a current assessment of the likelihood of
timely payment of debt having an original maturity of not more than 365 days.
A Issues assigned this highest rating are regarded as having the
greatest capacity for timely payment. Issues in this category are
delineated with the numbers 1, 2 and 3 to indicate the relative degree
of safety.
A-1 This designation indicates that the degree of safety regarding timely
payment is either overwhelming or very strong. Those issues determined
to possess overwhelming safety characteristics are denoted with a plus
(+) sign designation.
The commercial paper rating is not a recommendation to purchase or sell a
security. The ratings are based on current information furnished to S&P by the
issuer or obtained from other sources it considers reliable. The ratings may be
changed, suspended, or withdrawn as a result of changes in or unavailability of
such information.

Item 27. Indemnification.
Registrant's policy with respect to indemnification is as follows:
To the maximum extent permitted by the laws of the State of Maryland
as from time to time amended, Registrant shall indemnify its currently
acting and its former directors and officers and those persons who, at
the request of the Registrant, serve or have served another
corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise in
one or more of such capacities.
Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the
Securities Act of 1933, as amended, may be permitted to directors,
officers and controlling persons of the Registrant pursuant to the
foregoing provisions, or otherwise, Registrant has been advised, that
in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission, such
indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Act, and
is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for
indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by
the Registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or
controlling person of the Registrant in the successful defense of any
action, suit or proceeding) is asserted against the Registrant by such
director, officer or controlling person in connection with the
securities being registered, Registrant will, unless in the opinion of
its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent,
submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether
such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in
the Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
Item 28. Business and Other Connections of the Investment Adviser.
Information concerning the business and other connections of
SunAmerica is incorporated herein by reference to SunAmerica's Form

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION PURSUANT
TO RULE 12b-1
(CLASS C SHARES)
PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION adopted as of the 20 day of August, 1997, by
SunAmerica Money Market Funds, Inc., a Maryland Corporation (the "Corporation"),
on behalf of the Class C shares of its separately designated series, SunAmerica
Money Market Fund (the "Fund").
W I T N E S S E T H:
WHEREAS, the Corporation is registered under the Investment Company Act of
1940, as amended (the "Act"), as an open-end management investment company; and
WHEREAS, the Fund is a separately designated investment series of the
Corporation with its own investment objective, policies and purposes offering
three separate classes of shares of common stock, par value $.001 per share, of
the Corporation (the "Shares"); and
WHEREAS, the Corporation has entered into a Distribution Agreement with
SunAmerica Capital Services, Inc. (the "Distributor"), pursuant to which the
Distributor acts as the exclusive distributor and representative of the
Corporation in the offer and sale of the Shares to the public; and
WHEREAS, the Corporation desires to adopt this Distribution Plan (the
"Plan") pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the Investment Company Act, pursuant to
which the Fund will pay an account maintenance fee and a distribution fee to the
Distributor with respect to Class C shares of the Fund; and
WHEREAS, the Board of Directors of the Corporation (the "Directors") as a
whole, and the Directors who are not interested persons of the Corporation and
who have no direct or indirect financial interest in the operation of this Plan
or in any agreement relating hereto (the "12b-1 Directors"), having determined,
in the exercise of reasonable business judgment and in light of their fiduciary
duties under state law and under Sections 36(a) and (b) of the Act, that there
is a reasonable likelihood that this Plan will benefit the Fund and its Class C
shareholders, have approved this Plan by votes cast in person at a meeting
called for the purpose of voting hereon and on any agreements related hereto;
NOW THEREFORE, the Corporation on behalf of the Fund hereby adopts this
Plan on the following terms:
<PAGE>
1. Distribution Activities. The Fund shall pay the Distributor a
distribution fee under the Plan at the end of each month at the annual rate of
0.75% of average daily net assets attributable to Class C shares of the Fund to
compensate the Distributor and certain securities firms ("Securities Firms") for
providing sales and promotional activities and services. Such activities and
services will relate to the sale, promotion and marketing of the Class C shares.
Such expenditures may consist of sales commissions to financial consultants for
selling Class C shares, compensation, sales incentives and payments to sales and
marketing personnel, and the payment of expenses incurred in its sales and
promotional activities, including advertising expenditures related to the Class
C shares of the Fund and the costs of preparing and distributing promotional
materials with respect to such Class C shares. Payment of the distribution fee
described in this Section 1 shall be subject to any limitations set forth in
applicable regulations of the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc.
Nothing herein shall prohibit the Distributior from collecting distribution fees
in any given year, as provided hereunder, in excess of expenditures made in such
year for sales and promotional activities with respect to the Fund.
2. Account Maintenance Activities. The Fund shall pay the Distributor an
account maintenance fee under the Plan at the end of each month at the annual
rate of up to 0.15% of average daily net assets attributable to Class C shares
of the Fund to compensate the Distributor and Securities Firms for account
maintenance activities.
3. Payments to Other Parties. The Fund hereby authorizes the Distributor to
enter into agreements with Securities Firms to provide compensation to such
Securities Firms for activities and services of the type referred to in Sections
1 and 2 hereof. The Distributor may reallocate all or a portion of its account
maintenance fee or distribution fee to such Securities Firms as compensation for
the above-mentioned activities and services. Such agreements shall provide that
the Securities Firms shall deliver to the Distributor such information as is
reasonably necessary to permit the Distributor to comply with the reporting
requirements set forth in Section 5 hereof.
4. Related Agreements. All agreements with any person relating to
implementation of this Plan shall be in writing, and any agreement related to
this Plan shall provide:
(a) that such agreement may be terminated at any time, without payment
of any penalty, by vote of a majority of the 12b-1 Directors or, by vote of
a majority of the outstanding voting securities (as defined in the Act) of
Class C shares of the Fund, on not more than 60 days' written notice to any
other party to the agreement; and
(b) that such agreement shall terminate automatically in the event of
its assignment.
5. Quarterly Reports. The Treasurer of the Corporation shall provide to the
Directors and the Directors shall review, at least quarterly, a written report
of the amounts
- 2 -
<PAGE>
expended pursuant to this Plan with respect to Class C shares of the Fund and
any related agreement and the purposes for which such expenditures were made.
6. Term and Termination. (a) This Plan shall become effective as of the
date hereof, and, unless terminated as herein provided, shall continue from year
to year thereafter, so long as such continuance is specifically approved at
least annually by votes, cast in person at a meeting called for the purpose of
voting on such approval, of a majority of both the (i) the Directors of the
Corporation, and (ii) the 12b-1 Directors.
(b) This Plan may be terminated at any time by vote of a majority of the
12b-1 Directors or by vote of a majority of the outstanding voting securities
(as defined in the Act) of Class C shares of the Fund.
7. Amendments. This Plan may not be amended to increase materially the
maximum expenditures permitted by Sections 1 and 2 hereof unless such amendment
is approved by a vote of a majority of the outstanding voting securities (as
defined in the Act) of Class C shares of the Fund, and no material amendment to
this Plan shall be made unless approved in the manner provided for the annual
renewal of this Plan in Section 6(a) hereof.
8. Selection and Nomination of Directors. While this Plan is in effect, the
selection and nomination of those Directors of the Corporation who are not
interested persons of the Corporation shall be committed to the discretion of
such disinterested Directors.
9. Recordkeeping. The Corporation shall preserve copies of this Plan and
any related agreement and all reports made pursuant to Section 5 hereof for a
period of not less than six years from the date of this Plan, any such related
agreement or such reports, as the case may be, the first two years in an easily
accessible place.
10. Definition of Certain Terms. For purposes of this Plan, the terms
"assignment," "interested person," "majority of the outstanding voting
securities," and "principal underwriter" shall have their respective meanings
defined in the Act and the rules and regulations thereunder, subject, however,
to such exemptions as may be granted to either the Corporation or the principal
underwriter of the Shares by the Securities and Exchange Commission, or its
staff under the Act.
11. Separate Series. Pursuant to the provisions of the Articles of
Incorporation, the Fund is a separate series of the Corporation, and all debts,
liabilities and expenses of Class C
- 3 -
<PAGE>
shares of the Fund shall be enforceable only against the assets of Class C
shares of the Fund and not against the assets of any other fund or class of
shares or of the Corporation as a whole.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Corporation has caused this Plan to be executed as
of the day and year first written above.
