RE: IMPORTANT PROXY MATERIAL -- IMMEDIATE ACTION REQUIRED
Dear Shareholder:

    We are pleased to enclose a notice and proxy statement for a special meeting
of  shareholders of the Prudential Mutual Funds to be held on June 23, 1994. You
are being  asked  to approve,  among  other things,  a  proposal to  permit  the
automatic  conversion of  Class B  shares to  Class A  shares after  a specified
number of  years. Thereafter,  converted shares  will be  subject to  the  lower
annual distribution-related fees applicable to Class A shares.

    The   proxy  statement  also  includes   proposals  to  revise  the  current
distribution and  service  plans  for Class  A  and  Class B  shares  and  other
proposals recommended by the Fund's Manager and Subadviser.

    Please  read the enclosed materials carefully. The proxy statement discusses
each proposal in  detail and  the reasons  why the  Board of  Directors/Trustees
recommend that you vote in favor of those proposals.

    The   Fund  is   using  Shareholder  Communications   Corporation  (SCC),  a
professional proxy  solicitation  firm, to  assist  shareholders in  the  voting
process.  If we have not yet received your proxy card as the date of the meeting
approaches, you may receive a telephone call from SCC reminding you to  exercise
your right to vote.

    Your  vote  is  critical  in  allowing your  Fund  to  hold  the  meeting as
scheduled. Please take a  moment now to  sign and return the  proxy card in  the
enclosed  postage-paid envelope. If less than  a majority of the eligible shares
are represented, the Fund,  at shareholders' expense, will  have to continue  to
solicit  votes until a quorum is obtained.  Your prompt attention in this matter
benefits all shareholders. Thank you.

Sincerely,

Lawrence C. McQuade
PRESIDENT

                                PROXY STATEMENT
                            ------------------------

   
    This  statement is furnished by the  Trustees of Prudential Municipal Series
Fund (the Fund) in connection  with their solicitation of  proxies for use at  a
Special  Meeting of Shareholders to be held at 3:00 P.M. on June 23, 1994 at 199
Water Street, New York, New York  10292, the Fund's principal executive  office.
The purpose of the Meeting and the matters to be acted upon are set forth in the
accompanying Notice of Special Meeting.
    

    If  the accompanying form of Proxy is executed properly and returned, shares
represented by  it  will  be  voted  at  the  Meeting  in  accordance  with  the
instructions  on the  Proxy. However, if  no instructions  are specified, shares
will be voted for the election of Trustees and for each of the other  proposals.
A  Proxy may be  revoked at any  time prior to  the time it  is voted by written
notice to  the  Secretary of  the  Fund or  by  attendance at  the  Meeting.  If
sufficient  votes to approve one or more of the proposed items are not received,
the persons named as proxies may propose one or more adjournments of the Meeting
to permit further solicitation of proxies. Any such adjournment will require the
affirmative vote  of  a majority  of  those shares  present  at the  meeting  or
represented  by proxy. When voting on  a proposed adjournment, the persons named
as proxies  will vote  for the  proposed adjournment  all shares  that they  are
entitled  to vote with respect  to each item, unless  directed to disapprove the
item, in which case such shares will be voted against the proposed adjournment.

    If  a  Proxy  that  is   properly  executed  and  returned  accompanied   by
instructions  to withhold authority to vote represents a broker "non-vote" (that
is, a  Proxy from  a  broker or  nominee indicating  that  such person  has  not
received instructions from the beneficial owner or other person entitled to vote
shares  on a particular matter with respect  to which the broker or nominee does
not have discretionary power), the shares represented thereby will be considered
not to be present at the Meeting for purposes of determining the existence of  a
quorum  for the transaction of  business and be deemed  not cast with respect to
such proposal. If no instructions are received by the broker or nominee from the
shareholder with reference  to routine matters,  the shares represented  thereby
may  be considered  for purposes  of determining the  existence of  a quorum for

                                       1
<PAGE>
the transaction  of  business and  will  be deemed  cast  with respect  to  such
proposal. Also, a properly executed and returned Proxy marked with an abstention
will  be  considered present  at  the Meeting  for  purposes of  determining the
existence of a quorum for the transaction of business. However, abstentions  and
broker  "non-votes" do not constitute a vote  "for" or "against" the matter, but
have the  effect of  a negative  vote on  matters which  require approval  by  a
requisite percentage of the outstanding shares.

   
    The  close of business on  March 31, 1994 has been  fixed as the record date
for the determination of shareholders entitled to notice of, and to vote at, the

Shareholder Communications Corporation, a proxy solicitation firm, to assist  in
the  solicitation of  proxies for this  Meeting. This  cost, including specified
expenses, is not expected to  exceed $60,600 and will be  borne by the Fund.  In
addition,  solicitation  may  include,  without cost  to  the  Fund, telephonic,
telegraphic or oral communication by regular employees of Prudential  Securities
Incorporated (Prudential Securities) and its affiliates.
    

                              ELECTION OF TRUSTEES
                                (PROPOSAL NO. 1)

   
    At  the Meeting, nine Trustees will be elected  to hold office for a term of
unlimited duration until  their successors are  elected and qualify.  It is  the
intention of the persons named in the accompanying form of Proxy to vote for the
election  of Edward D. Beach,  Eugene C. Dorsey, Delayne  Dedrick Gold, Harry A.
Jacobs, Jr., Lawrence C. McQuade, Thomas  T. Mooney, Thomas H. O'Brien,  Richard
A. Redeker and Nancy H. Teeters, all of whom are currently Trustees. Each of the
nominees  has consented to  be named in this  Proxy Statement and  to serve as a
Trustee if elected. All of the Trustees, except for Mr. Redeker, have previously
been elected by  shareholders. Mmes.  Gold and  Teeters and  Messrs. Jacobs  and
O'Brien have served as Trustees since 1984; Messrs. Beach and Mooney have served
as Trustees since 1986; Mr. Dorsey has
    

                                       4
<PAGE>
served  as  a Trustee  since 1987;  Mr. McQuade  has served  as a  Trustee since
February 1988; and Mr. Redeker has served as a Trustee since November 11, 1993.

    The Trustees have no reason to believe that any of the nominees named  above
will  become unavailable  for election  as a Trustee,  but if  that should occur
before the Meeting, proxies will be voted  for such persons as the Trustees  may
recommend.

   
    As  a Massachusetts business trust, the Fund  is not required to hold annual
meetings of  shareholders.  See  "Shareholder  Proposals."  The  Fund's  By-laws
provide  that  the  Fund  will  not  be  required  to  hold  annual  meetings of
shareholders if the election  of Trustees is not  required under the  Investment
Company  Act of 1940, as amended (the Investment Company Act). It is the present
intention  of  the  Trustees  of  the  Fund  not  to  hold  annual  meetings  of
shareholders unless such shareholder action is required.

Securities.  The Trustees have the option  to receive the Trustee's fee pursuant
to a deferred fee agreement with the Fund. Under the terms of the agreement, the
Fund accrues daily the amount of such Trustee's fee which accrues interest at  a
rate  equivalent to the prevailing rate applicable to 90-day U.S. Treasury Bills
at the beginning of each calendar quarter or, pursuant to an exemptive order  of
the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), at the rate of return of the Fund.
Payment  of the interest so accrued is also deferred and accruals become payable
at the option of the Trustee. The Fund's obligation to make payments of deferred
Trustees' fees, together with interest thereon,  is a general obligation of  the
Fund. During the fiscal year ended August 31, 1993, the Fund paid Trustees' fees
of $54,000 and travel and incidental expenses of approximately $4,700.
    

    There  were four  regular meetings  of the  Fund's Trustees  held during the
fiscal year  ended  August  31,  1993. The  Trustees  presently  have  an  Audit
Committee,  the members of which  are Mmes. Gold and  Teeters and Messrs. Beach,
Dorsey, Mooney  and  O'Brien,  the Fund's  non-interested  Trustees.  The  Audit
Committee  met twice  during the  fiscal year ended  August 31,  1993. The Audit
Committee makes recommendations to the  Trustees with respect to the  engagement
of independent accountants and reviews with the independent accountants the plan
and  results of the audit  engagement and matters having  a material effect upon
the Fund's financial operations. The Trustees also have a Nominating  Committee,
comprised  of  the Fund's  non-interested Trustees,  which selects  and proposes
candidates for election as  Trustees. The Nominating  Committee met once  during
the  fiscal  year  ended August  31,  1993.  The Nominating  Committee  does not
consider nominees recommended by shareholders to fill vacancies on the Board.

                             MANAGEMENT OF THE FUND

THE MANAGER

    Prudential Mutual Fund Management,  Inc. (PMF or  the Manager), One  Seaport
Plaza, New York, New York 10292, serves as the Fund's Manager under a management
agreement dated as of December 30, 1988 (the Management Agreement).

    The  Management Agreement  was last  approved by  the Trustees  of the Fund,
including a majority of  the Trustees who  are not parties  to such contract  or
interested persons of such parties (as defined in the Investment Company Act) on
May 6, 1993 and was approved by shareholders of each series then in existence on
December 28, 1988, by shareholders (then existing) of the Florida Series and the
New  Jersey Money Market Series on December  30, 1991 and by shareholders of the
Connecticut Money Market  Series and  the Massachusetts Money  Market Series  on
November 10, 1992.

TERMS OF THE MANAGEMENT AGREEMENT

   
    Pursuant to the Management Agreement, PMF, subject to the supervision of the
Fund's  Trustees and  in conformity  with the  stated policies  of the  Fund, is
responsible for managing or  providing for the management  of the investment  of
the  Fund's  assets. In  this  regard, PMF  provides  supervision of  the Fund's
investments, furnishes a continuous investment program for the Fund's portfolios
and places purchase  and sale orders  for portfolio securities  of the Fund  and
other  investments.  The  Prudential Investment  Company  (PIC),  a wholly-owned
subsidiary of The Prudential Insurance Company of America (Prudential), provides
such services pursuant  to a subadvisory  agreement (the Subadvisory  Agreement)
with  PMF.  PMF also  administers the  Fund's business  affairs, subject  to the
supervision of the Fund's Trustees, and, in connection therewith, furnishes  the
Fund   with  office  facilities,  together  with  those  ordinary  clerical  and
bookkeeping services which are  not being furnished by  the Fund's Transfer  and
Dividend Disbursing Agent and Custodian.
    

    PMF  has authorized  any of its  directors, officers and  employees who have
been elected as Trustees or officers of  the Fund to serve in the capacities  in
which they have been elected. All services furnished by PMF under the Management
Agreement  may be furnished by any such directors, officers or employees of PMF.
In connection with its administration of the corporate affairs of the Fund,  PMF
bears the following expenses:

        (a)  the salaries  and expenses  of all personnel  of the  Fund and PMF,
    except the fees  and expenses  of Trustees not  affiliated with  PMF or  the
    Fund's investment adviser;

                                       16
<PAGE>
        (b)  all expenses  incurred by  PMF or  by the  Fund in  connection with
    administering the ordinary course of  the Fund's business, other than  those
    assumed by the Fund, as described below; and

        (c)  the costs and  expenses payable to PIC  pursuant to the Subadvisory
    Agreement.

    The Fund pays PMF for the services performed and the facilities furnished by
it a fee at an annual rate of .50 of 1% of the average daily net assets of  each
series. This fee is computed daily and paid monthly.

    The  amount of the management fee paid by each series of the Fund to PMF for
the fiscal year ended August 31, 1993 was as follows:

    The Management  Agreement  provides  that,  if  the  expenses  of  the  Fund
(including   the  fees  of   PMF,  but  excluding   interest,  taxes,  brokerage
commissions, distribution fees and  litigation and indemnification expenses  and
other

                                       17
<PAGE>
extraordinary  expenses  not  incurred  in the  ordinary  course  of  the Fund's
business) for  any  fiscal year  exceed  the lowest  applicable  annual  expense
limitation  established and enforced pursuant to  the statutes or regulations of
any jurisdiction in which shares  of the Fund are  then qualified for offer  and
sale, the compensation due PMF will be reduced by the amount of such excess, or,
if such reduction exceeds the compensation payable to PMF, PMF will pay the Fund
the  amount of such reduction which exceeds the amount of such compensation. Any
such reductions or payments are subject to readjustment during the year. No such
reductions or payments  were required during  the fiscal year  ended August  31,
1993.  The  Fund believes  the most  restrictive of  such annual  limitations is
2 1/2% of a series' average daily net  assets up to $30 million, 2% of the  next
$70 million of such assets and 1 1/2% of such assets in excess of $100 million.

   
    Except  as indicated  above, the  Fund is  responsible under  the Management
Agreement for the  payment of its  expenses, including (a)  the fees payable  to
PMF,  (b) the fees and  expenses of Trustees who are  not affiliated with PMF or
the investment  adviser,  (c)  the  fees and  certain  expenses  of  the  Fund's
Custodian  and Transfer  and Dividend  Disbursing Agent,  including the  cost of
providing records of the Fund  and of pricing Fund  shares, (d) the charges  and
expenses  of the Fund's legal counsel and independent accountants, (e) brokerage
commissions and any issue or transfer taxes chargeable to the Fund in connection
with its securities transactions,  (f) all taxes and  corporate fees payable  by
the  Fund to  governmental agencies,  (g) the fees  of any  trade association of
which the  Fund  may  be a  member,  (h)  the cost  of  any  share  certificates
representing  shares  of  the  Fund,  (i) the  cost  of  fidelity  and liability
insurance, (j)  certain organization  expenses  of the  Fund  and the  fees  and
expenses involved in registering and maintaining registration of the Fund and of
its shares with the SEC and registering the Fund and qualifying its shares under
state  securities laws,  including the  preparation and  printing of  the Fund's
registration statements  and  prospectuses  for  such  purposes,  (k)  allocable
communications  expenses with respect  to investor services  and all expenses of
shareholders' and  Trustees' meetings  and of  preparing, printing  and  mailing
prospectuses  and reports  to shareholders,  (l) litigation  and indemnification
expenses and other extraordinary expenses not incurred in the ordinary course of
the Fund's business and (m) distribution fees.
    

   
    The Management Agreement provides  that PMF will not  be liable to the  Fund
for  any  error of  judgment by  PMF or  for any  loss suffered  by the  Fund in
connection with the matters to which  the Management Agreement relates except  a
loss  resulting from a breach  of fiduciary duty with  respect to the receipt of
compensation for services or willful misfeasance, bad faith, gross negligence or
reckless disregard  of duty.  The  Management Agreement  also provides  that  it
    

                                       18

will  terminate automatically if assigned and  that it may be terminated without
penalty by  the Trustees  of the  Fund,  by vote  of a  majority of  the  Fund's
outstanding  voting securities (as defined in  the Investment Company Act) or by
the Manager, upon not more than 60 days' nor less than 30 days' written notice.

THE DISTRIBUTORS

    Prudential Mutual Fund  Distributors, Inc.  (PMFD), One  Seaport Plaza,  New
York, New York 10292, acts as the distributor of the Class A shares of the Fund.
Prudential  Securities, One Seaport Plaza, New York, New York 10292, acts as the
distributor of the Class B and Class D shares of the Fund.

   
    Under separate Distribution and Service Plans (the Class A Plan, the Class B
Plan and Class D Plan, collectively, the  Plans) adopted by the Fund under  Rule
12b-1 under the Investment Company Act and separate distribution agreements (the
Distribution  Agreements),  PMFD  and Prudential  Securities  (collectively, the
Distributor) incur the expenses of distributing  the Fund's Class A and Class  B
and Class D shares, respectively.
    

   
    The  Plans were last approved  by the Trustees, including  a majority of the
Trustees who are not interested  persons of the Fund and  who have no direct  or
indirect  financial interest in the operation of the Class A, Class B or Class D
Plan or in any agreement related to any of the Plans (the Rule 12b-1  Trustees),
on  May 6, 1993.  The Class A Plan  was approved by the  Class A shareholders of
each applicable then-existing series on December 19, 1990. The Class A Plan  was
approved by the then-existing shareholders of the Florida Series on December 30,
1991.  The  Class  B Plan  was  approved by  the  Class B  shareholders  of each
applicable series on December  18, 1989. The  Class D Plan  was approved by  the
sole shareholder of the Class D shares of the Florida Series on June 30, 1993.
    

    The  Class A and  Class B Plans are  proposed to be amended  as set forth in
Proposals No. 3 and 4 below.

    CLASS A PLAN.  Under the Class  A Plan, each applicable series of the  Fund,
other than the Money Market Series, reimburses PMFD for its distribution-related
expenses  with respect to Class A shares at an annual rate of up to .30 of 1% of
the average daily net assets  of the Class A shares.  The Class A Plan  provides
that  (i) up to .25 of 1% of the  average daily net assets of the Class A shares
may be used for personal service and/or the maintenance of shareholder  accounts
(service fee) and (ii) total distribution fees (including the service fee of .25
of  1%) may not exceed .30 of 1% of  the average daily net assets of the Class A
shares. PMFD has  advised the  Fund that distribution-related  expenses of  each
series  will not exceed .10 of 1% of the average daily net assets of the Class A
shares for the fiscal year ending August 31, 1994.

    For the fiscal year ended August 31, 1993, PMFD received payments under  the
Class A Plan representing .10 of 1% of the average daily net assets of the Class
A shares of each series as reimbursement of expenses related to the distribution

    The  term  "overhead" represents  (a) the  expenses of  operating Prudential
Securities branch offices in connection with the sale of Fund shares,  including
lease  costs, the salaries and employee benefits of operations and sales support
personnel, utility costs, communications costs  and the costs of stationery  and
supplies,  (b) the costs of  client sales seminars, (c)  expenses of mutual fund
sales coordinators to promote the sale  of Fund shares and (d) other  incidental
expenses relating to branch promotion of Fund sales.

   
    Under  the  current  Class  B  Plan,  the  amount  of  distribution expenses
reimbursable by  Class  B  shares of  the  Fund  is reduced  by  the  amount  of
contingent  deferred  sales  charges. As  of  December 31,  1993,  the aggregate
amounts of  unreimbursed distribution  expenses for  each series  of the  Fund's
Class B shares were approximately as follows:

    CLASS  D PLAN.   Under  the Class  D Plan,  the Fund  compensates Prudential
Securities for its distribution-related expenses with respect to Class D  shares
of  the Florida Series at an  annual rate of .75 of  1% of the average daily net
assets of the  Class D  shares. The  Class D Plan  provides for  the payment  to
Prudential  Securities of (i) an asset-based sales charge at a rate of .50 of 1%
and (ii) a service fee of .25 of 1% of the average daily net assets value of the
Class D shares. The service fee is  used to pay for personal service and/or  the
maintenance of shareholder accounts.
    

   
    Under  the Class D Plan, Class D shares are subject to a contingent deferred
sales charge  of 1%  of  the lower  of the  amount  invested or  the  redemption
proceeds if they are redeemed within one year of purchase.
    

                                       29
<PAGE>
    For  the fiscal year ended August 31, 1993, Prudential Securities received a
distribution fee of $767 paid by the Florida Series and there were no contingent
deferred sales charges paid by investors on the redemption of Class D shares  of
the Florida Series.

   
    The  Class A, Class B and Class D Plans continue in effect from year to year
with respect to each  applicable series provided that  each such continuance  is
approved  at least annually by a vote of the Trustees, including a majority vote
of the Rule 12b-1 Trustees, cast in  person at a meeting called for the  purpose
of  voting on such continuance. The Class A,  Class B and Class D Plans may each
be terminated at any  time, without penalty,  by the vote of  a majority of  the
Rule  12b-1  Trustees  or by  the  vote of  the  holders  of a  majority  of the
outstanding shares of the applicable  class of each series  on not more than  30
days'  written notice to any other party to  the Plans. None of the Plans may be
amended to  increase  materially  the  amounts to  be  spent  for  the  services
described  therein without approval by the  shareholders of the applicable class
of the applicable series and all material amendments are required to be approved
by the Trustees  in the  manner described  above. Each  Plan will  automatically
terminate  in the event  of its assignment.  The Fund will  not be contractually
obligated to pay expenses incurred under the Class A, Class B or Class D Plan if
it  is  terminated   or  not  continued.   In  the  event   of  termination   or
noncontinuation   of  the   Class  B  Plan,   the  Trustees   may  consider  the
appropriateness of  having  the Fund  reimburse  Prudential Securities  for  the
outstanding carry forward amounts plus interest thereon.
    

    Pursuant  to  the  Plans, the  Trustees  review at  least  quarterly written
reports of the distribution expenses incurred on behalf of the Class A, Class  B
and  Class D shares  of the Fund  by PMFD or  Prudential Securities. The reports
include an itemization  of the distribution  expenses and the  purposes of  such
expenditures.  In addition, as long as the Plans remain in effect, the selection
and nomination  of Rule  12b-1 Trustees  shall be  committed to  the Rule  12b-1
Trustees.

    Pursuant  to each Distribution  Agreement, the Fund  has agreed to indemnify
PMFD and Prudential Securities to the extent permitted by applicable law against
certain liabilities under  the Securities Act.  Each Distribution Agreement  was
last  approved by the Trustees, including a majority of the Rule 12b-1 Trustees,
on May 6, 1993.

PORTFOLIO TRANSACTIONS

    The Manager is  responsible for  decisions to  buy and  sell securities  and
futures  and  options thereon  for each  series  of the  Fund, the  selection of
brokers,

                                       30
<PAGE>
dealers and  futures commission  merchants to  effect the  transactions and  the
negotiation  of brokerage commissions, if any. For purposes of this section, the
term "Manager" includes the Subadviser. Purchases  and sales of securities on  a
securities  exchange, which are not expected to  be a significant portion of the
portfolio securities of any  series, are effected through  brokers who charge  a
commission  for their services.  Broker-dealers may also  receive commissions in
connection with options and futures transactions including the purchase and sale
of underlying securities upon the exercise of options. Orders may be directed to
any broker or futures  commission merchant including, to  the extent and in  the
manner permitted by applicable law, Prudential Securities and its affiliates.

    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 Fund  will  not deal  with  Prudential
Securities  (or any affiliate) in any transaction in which Prudential Securities
acts as principal. Thus,  it will not deal  in the over-the-counter market  with
Prudential Securities (or any affiliate) acting as market maker, and it will not
execute  a  negotiated trade  with Prudential  Securities if  execution involves
Prudential Securities (or any affiliate) acting as principal with respect to any
part of the Fund's order.

    In placing orders for portfolio securities for each series of the Fund,  the
Manager  is  required  to  give  primary  consideration  to  obtaining  the most
favorable price  and  efficient execution.  The  Manager seeks  to  effect  each
transaction  at a price and commission, if any, that provides the most favorable
total cost or proceeds  reasonably attainable in  the circumstances. Within  the
framework  of this policy, the Manager will consider the research and investment
services provided by brokers, dealers or futures commission merchants who effect
or are  parties  to portfolio  transactions  of the  Fund,  the Manager  or  the
Manager's  other clients. Such research and  investment services are those which
brokerage houses  customarily provide  to  institutional investors  and  include
statistical  and economic data and research  reports on particular companies and
industries. Such services are used by the Manager in connection with all of  its
investment activities, and some of such services obtained in connection with the
execution  of transactions for the Fund may be used in managing other investment
accounts.  Conversely,  brokers,   dealers  or   futures  commission   merchants
furnishing  such services may  be selected for the  execution of transactions of

                                       31
<PAGE>
   
such other accounts, whose aggregate assets are far larger than the Fund's,  and
the  services furnished by such brokers, dealers or futures commission merchants
may be used  by the  Manager in providing  investment management  for the  Fund.
Commission  rates are established pursuant to negotiations with the broker based
on the quality and quantity of execution services provided by the broker, dealer
or futures  commission merchant  in  light of  generally prevailing  rates.  The
Manager's  policy is to pay higher commissions to brokers, other than Prudential
Securities, for particular  transactions than  might be charged  if a  different
broker  had been  selected, on  occasions when,  in the  Manager's opinion, this
policy furthers the objective of obtaining best price and execution. The Manager
is authorized to pay higher commissions  on brokerage transactions for the  Fund
to  brokers other than Prudential Securities in order to secure the research and
investment services described above,  subject to review  by the Fund's  Trustees
from  time  to time  as to  the extent  and continuation  of this  practice. The
allocation of orders among  brokers and the commission  rates paid are  reviewed
periodically  by the Fund's Trustees. Portfolio  securities may not be purchased
from any underwriting or  selling group of which  Prudential Securities (or  any
affiliate), during the existence of the group, is a member, except in accordance
with  rules of the  SEC. This limitation, in  the opinion of  the Fund, will not
significantly affect the series' ability to pursue their investment  objectives.
However,  in  the  future  in  other  circumstances,  the  series  may  be  at a
disadvantage because  of  this limitation  in  comparison to  other  funds  with
similar objectives but not subject to such limitations.
    

   
    Subject  to the  above considerations,  Prudential Securities  may act  as a
broker for the Fund.  In order for Prudential  Securities (or any affiliate)  to
effect  any portfolio transactions for the  Fund, the commissions, fees or other
remuneration received  by  Prudential  Securities (or  any  affiliate)  must  be
reasonable and fair compared to the commissions, fees or other remuneration paid
to  other brokers in  connection with comparable  transactions involving similar
securities being purchased or  sold on an  exchange or board  of trade during  a
comparable  period of time. This standard  would allow Prudential Securities (or
any affiliate) to receive no more than the remuneration which would be  expected
to  be received by  an unaffiliated broker  or futures commission  merchant in a
commensurate arm's-length transaction.  Furthermore, the Trustees  of the  Fund,
including  a majority of the Rule  12b-1 Trustees, have adopted procedures which
are  reasonably  designed  to  provide  that  any  commissions,  fees  or  other
remuneration  paid to  Prudential Securities  (or any  affiliate) are consistent
with the foregoing standard. In accordance with Section 11(a) of the  Securities
Exchange  Act of  1934, Prudential  Securities may  not retain  compensation for
effecting transactions on a national securities exchange for the Fund unless the
    

                                       32
<PAGE>
   
Fund has expressly  authorized the  retention of  such compensation.  Prudential
Securities  must furnish to the Fund at least annually a statement setting forth
the total  amount of  all compensation  retained by  Prudential Securities  from
transactions  effected  for the  Fund  during the  applicable  period. Brokerage
transactions with Prudential Securities (or  any affiliate) are also subject  to
such  fiduciary standards as may be  imposed upon Prudential Securities (or such
affiliate) by applicable law.
    

    During the fiscal  year ended  August 31,  1993, the  series paid  brokerage
commissions  on certain  futures transactions  as set  forth below.  During this
period, the series paid no brokerage commissions to Prudential Securities.

                        APPROVAL OF A PROPOSAL TO AMEND
                        THE FUND'S DECLARATION OF TRUST
              TO PERMIT THE IMPLEMENTATION OF A CONVERSION FEATURE
                                (PROPOSAL NO. 2)
    

    The  Trustees are recommending that shareholders approve an amendment to the
Fund's Declaration of Trust to permit the implementation of a conversion feature
for Class  B  shares.  The  conversion feature  is  authorized  pursuant  to  an
exemptive  order of the SEC (the SEC  Order) and would provide for the automatic
conversion of Class  B shares  to Class  A shares  at relative  net asset  value
approximately  seven years after purchase. Class A shares are subject to a lower
annual distribution and service  fee than Class B  shares and conversions  would
occur  without the imposition  of any additional sales  charge. A description of
the conversion feature is  set forth in greater  detail below. Amendment of  the
Declaration  of Trust requires approval by  a majority of the Fund's outstanding
shares.

THE CLASSES OF SHARES

   
    The Fund currently offers  three classes of shares,  designated as Class  A,
Class  B  and Class  D  shares pursuant  to  the Alternative  Purchase  Plan, in
reliance upon  the SEC  Order. Class  A  shares are  currently offered  with  an
initial  sales charge of up to 4.5% of  the offering price and are subject to an
annual distribution and service fee of up to .30 of 1% of the average daily  net
assets  of  the Class  A  shares pursuant  to  a Rule  12b-1  plan. This  fee is
currently charged at a rate of .10 of 1% of the average daily net assets of  the
Class  A shares and PMFD has  agreed to so limit its fee  to .10 of 1% under the
Class A Plan  for the fiscal  year ending August  31, 1994. Class  B shares  are
currently  offered  without  an  initial  sales  charge  but  are  subject  to a
contingent deferred  sales charge  or CDSC  (declining from  5% to  zero of  the
lesser of the amount invested or the redemption proceeds) on certain redemptions
generally  made within six years  of purchase and to  an annual distribution and
service fee pursuant to  a Rule 12b-1  plan of up  to .50 of  1% of the  average
daily  net assets  of the  Class B shares.  The Florida  Series currently offers
Class D shares. Class D shares are  offered without an initial sales charge  but
are  subject to  an annual  distribution and  service fee  of .75  of 1%  of the
average daily net assets of the Class  D shares and a contingent deferred  sales
charge of 1% of the amount invested or the redemption proceeds if the shares are
redeemed within one year of purchase.
    

    In  accordance with  the SEC  Order, the  Trustees may,  among other things,
authorize the creation of  additional classes of shares  from time to time.  The

                                       34
<PAGE>
   
Trustees  have approved the offering of a  new class of shares, to be designated
Class C shares, to all  of the series of the  Fund, other than the Money  Market
Series  and the  Florida Series, which  will be offered  simultaneously with the
offering of  Class  B  shares  with  the  proposed  conversion  feature.  It  is
anticipated  that Class C shares will be offered without an initial sales charge
but will be subject to an annual  distribution and service fee not to exceed  1%
of  the average daily net assets of the  Class C shares and, subject to approval
by the  Trustees, a  1% CDSC  on certain  redemptions made  within one  year  of
purchase. If the proposed conversion feature for Class B shares is not approved,
Class C shares will not be offered.
    

THE PROPOSED CONVERSION FEATURE

   
    On  May 6, 1993, the Fund's Trustees, including a majority of the Rule 12b-1
Trustees, approved an amendment to the Fund's Declaration of Trust to permit the
implementation of a conversion feature for the Fund's Class B shares. A copy  of
the  proposed amendment to the Fund's Declaration of Trust is attached hereto as
Exhibit B.
    

    If this proposal is approved, it is currently contemplated that  conversions
of  Class  B  shares  to  Class  A  shares  will  occur  on  a  quarterly  basis
approximately seven  years  from purchase.  The  first conversion  is  currently
anticipated  to occur  in or  about January  1995. Conversions  will be effected
automatically at  relative  net  asset  value  without  the  imposition  of  any
additional  sales charge. Class B shareholders  will benefit from the conversion
feature because they will thereafter be subject to the lower annual distribution
and service fee applicable to Class A shares.

    Since the Fund tracks amounts paid  rather than the number of shares  bought
on  each purchase of Class B shares, it is currently anticipated that the number
of Class  B shares  eligible to  convert  to Class  A shares  (excluding  shares
acquired   through   the   automatic  reinvestment   of   dividends   and  other
distributions) (the Eligible Shares) will be determined for each series on  each
conversion  date in accordance with the following  formula: (i) the ratio of (a)
the amounts paid for Class B shares purchased at least seven years prior to  the
conversion  date to (b) the  total amount paid for  all Class B shares purchased
and then held in a shareholder's account (ii) multiplied by the total number  of
Class  B shares then held in such  shareholder's account. Each time any Eligible
Shares in  a shareholder's  account convert  to Class  A shares,  all shares  or
amounts  representing Class  B shares  then in  such account  that were acquired
through the automatic  reinvestment of  dividends and  other distributions  will
convert to Class A shares.

                                       35
<PAGE>
   
    For  purposes of determining the  number of Eligible Shares,  if the Class B
shares in  a shareholder's  account on  any conversion  date are  the result  of
multiple  purchases  at different  net  asset values  per  share, the  number of
Eligible Shares calculated as described above  will generally be either more  or
less  than the  number of  shares actually  purchased approximately  seven years
before such conversion date. For example, if 100 shares were initially purchased
at $10 per share (for a total of $1,000) and a second purchase of 100 shares was
subsequently made at $11 per share (for  a total of $1,100), 95.24 shares  would
convert  approximately  seven  years  from the  initial  purchase  (I.E., $1,000
divided by $2,100 (47.62%), multiplied by  200 shares equals 95.24 shares).  The
Manager  reserves the right to modify the  formula for determining the number of
Eligible Shares in the future as it deems appropriate on notice to shareholders.
    

   
    If the net asset value per share of  Class A is higher than that of Class  B
at  the  time  of  conversion (which  may  be  the case  because  of  the higher
distribution and service fee  applicable to Class  B shares), shareholders  will
receive  fewer  Class  A shares  than  Class  B shares  converted,  although the
aggregate dollar value will be the same.
    

   
    For purposes of calculating the  applicable holding period for  conversions,
all  payments for purchases of  Class B shares during a  month will be deemed to
have been made  on the last  day of the  month, or for  Class B shares  acquired
through  exchange, or  a series of  exchanges, on the  last day of  the month in
which the original payment for  purchases of such Class  B shares was made.  For
Class  B shares previously exchanged for shares of a money market fund, the time
period during which  such shares  were held  in the  money market  fund will  be
excluded.  For example, Class B shares held in  a money market fund for a period
of one year will not convert to  Class A shares until approximately eight  years
from purchase. For purposes of measuring the time period during which shares are
held  in a money market fund, exchanges will  be deemed to have been made on the
last day of the month. Class B shares acquired through exchange will convert  to
Class  A  shares after  expiration of  the conversion  period applicable  to the
original purchase of such shares. As of the date of the first conversion (which,
as noted above, is currently anticipated to occur in or about January 1995)  all
amounts  representing Class B  shares then outstanding  beyond the expiration of
the applicable conversion period will  automatically convert to Class A  shares,
together with all shares or amounts representing Class B shares acquired through
the  automatic  reinvestment of  dividends and  distributions  then held  in the
shareholder's account.
    

                                       36
<PAGE>
   
    The Fund  has  obtained  an  opinion  of counsel  to  the  effect  that  the
conversion  of Class B shares into Class  A shares does not constitute a taxable
event for U.S. income tax purposes. However, such opinion is not binding on  the
Internal Revenue Service.
    

   
    If  approved by shareholders,  the conversion feature may  be subject to the
continuing availability  of  opinions of  counsel  or rulings  of  the  Internal
Revenue  Service (i) that the dividends and  other distributions paid on Class A
and Class  B  shares will  not  constitute "preferential  dividends"  under  the
Internal  Revenue Code  of 1986,  as amended,  and (ii)  that the  conversion of
shares does not  constitute a taxable  event. The conversion  of Class B  shares
into  Class A shares may be suspended if  such opinions or rulings are no longer
available. If  conversions  are suspended,  Class  B  shares of  the  Fund  will
continue   to  be  subject,  possibly   indefinitely,  to  their  higher  annual
distribution and service fee.
    

REQUIRED VOTE

    The proposed amendment to the Fund's  Declaration of Trust to implement  the
conversion  feature requires  the affirmative vote  of a majority  of the Fund's
outstanding shares. In  the event shareholders  of the Fund  do not approve  the
proposed  amendment, the conversion feature will not be implemented for the Fund
and  Class  B  shares  of  the  Fund  will  continue  to  be  subject,  possibly
indefinitely, to their higher annual distribution and service fee.

    THE TRUSTEES RECOMMEND THAT YOU VOTE "FOR" THIS PROPOSAL NO. 2

                                (PROPOSAL NO. 3)

   
    On May 6, 1993, the Fund's Trustees approved an amended and restated Class A
Distribution  and  Service  Plan pursuant  to  Rule 12b-1  under  the Investment
Company Act and  an amended and  restated Distribution Agreement  with PMFD  for
Class  A shares of the Fund (the Proposed  Class A Plan and the Proposed Class A
Distribution Agreement, respectively) and  recommend submission of the  Proposed
Class  A  Plan  to the  Class  A shareholders  of  each series  for  approval or
disapproval at this Special Meeting of Shareholders. As contemplated by the  SEC
Order    (previously    defined    under   Proposal    No.    2    above),   the
    

                                       37
<PAGE>
Proposed Class  A  Plan  is  also  being  submitted  for  approval  by  Class  B
shareholders  of each  series because,  subject to  approval of  Proposal No. 2,
Class B shares will automatically convert to Class A shares approximately  seven
years  after  purchase. The  Proposed Class  A  Distribution Agreement  does not
require, and is not being submitted for, shareholder approval.

    The purpose  of  the  Proposed Class  A  Plan  is to  compensate  PMFD,  the
distributor  of the Fund's Class A shares, for providing distribution assistance
to  broker-dealers,  including  Prudential  Securities  and  Prusec,  affiliated
broker-dealers,  and  other qualified  broker-dealers,  if any,  whose customers
invest in Class  A shares  of the  Fund and to  defray the  costs and  expenses,
including  the payment of  account servicing fees, of  the services provided and
activities undertaken to distribute Class A shares (Distribution Activities).

    The Trustees previously adopted a plan of distribution for the Fund's  Class
A  shares pursuant  to Rule  12b-1 under  the Investment  Company Act  which was
approved by shareholders of each applicable then-existing series on December 19,
1990. The Class  A Plan was  approved by the  then-existing shareholders of  the
Florida Series on December 30, 1991, and last approved by the Trustees on May 6,
1993 (the Existing Class A Plan). Shareholders of the Fund's Class A and Class B
shares  are being asked to approve amendments  to the Existing Class A Plan that
change it  from a  reimbursement type  plan  to a  compensation type  plan.  The
amendments  do not change the maximum annual fee  that may be paid to PMFD under
the Existing  Class  A  Plan,  although the  possibility  exists  that  expenses
incurred  by  PMFD and  for  which it  is entitled  to  be reimbursed  under the
Existing Class A  Plan may  be less  than the fee  PMFD will  receive under  the
Proposed  Class  A  Plan.  The  amendments  are  being  proposed  to  facilitate
administration and accounting. The  Trustees believe that  the Proposed Class  A
Plan is in the best interest of the Fund and is reasonably likely to benefit the
Fund's  Class A shareholders.  A copy of  the Proposed Class  A Plan is attached
hereto as Exhibit C.

THE EXISTING CLASS A PLAN

    Under the  Existing Class  A Plan,  the Fund  reimburses PMFD  for  expenses
incurred for Distribution Activities at an annual rate of up to .30 of 1% of the
average  daily net assets of  the Class A shares  (up to .25 of  1% of which may
constitute a  service  fee for  the  servicing and  maintenance  of  shareholder
accounts).  Article III, Section 26 of the NASD Rules of Fair Practice (the NASD
Rules) places an annual limit of .25 of  1% on fees that may be imposed for  the
provision  of personal  service and/or  the maintenance  of shareholder accounts
(service fees) and an annual limit of .75 of 1% on asset-based sales charges (as
defined in the NASD  Rules). Subject to  these limits, the  Fund may impose  any

                                       38
<PAGE>
combination  of  service  fees  and asset-based  sales  charges  under  both the
Existing Class A Plan  and the Proposed  Class A Plan,  provided that the  total
fees  do not exceed .30 of  1% per annum of the  average daily net assets of the
Class A shares of a series.

   
    The Existing Class  A Plan  may not be  amended to  increase materially  the
amount  to be  spent for  the services described  therein without  approval by a
majority of the holders of the Class A shares of each series of the Fund,  other
than  the Money Market Series. In addition, all material amendments thereof must
be approved by vote of a majority  of the Trustees, including a majority of  the
Rule  12b-1 Trustees,  cast in  person at  a meeting  called for  the purpose of
voting on the  Plan. So  long as the  Existing Class  A Plan is  in effect,  the
selection  and  nomination  of Rule  12b-1  Trustees  will be  committed  to the
discretion of the Rule 12b-1 Trustees.
    

    The Existing Class A Plan may be  terminated at any time without payment  of
any  penalty by the vote of a majority of the Rule 12b-1 Trustees or by the vote
of a majority of  the outstanding Class  A shares of  the applicable series  (as
defined  in the Investment Company Act) on  written notice to any other party to
such Plan and will  automatically terminate in the  event of its assignment  (as
defined  in the Investment Company Act). For  a more detailed description of the
Existing Class A Plan, see "Management of the Fund -- The Distributors --  Class
A Plan."

THE PROPOSED CLASS A PLAN

    The  Proposed Class A Plan amends the  Existing Class A Plan in one material
respect. Under the Existing Class A Plan, the Fund reimburses PMFD for  expenses
actually  incurred for Distribution Activities up to  a maximum of .30 of 1% per
annum of the average daily net assets of the Class A shares. The Proposed  Class
A  Plan  authorizes  the  Fund  to  pay PMFD  the  same  maximum  annual  fee as
compensation for its Distribution Activities regardless of the expenses incurred
by PMFD  for  Distribution  Activities.  The Distributor  may,  however,  as  it
currently  does, voluntarily agree to  limit its fee to  an amount less than the
maximum annual  fee. In  contrast to  the  Existing Class  A Plan,  the  amounts
payable  by  the Fund  under the  Proposed Class  A Plan  would not  be directly
related  to  the  expenses  actually  incurred  by  PMFD  for  its  Distribution
Activities.  Consequently, if  PMFD's expenses  for Distribution  Activities are
less than the distribution and service fees it receives under the Proposed Class
A Plan, it will retain its full fees and realize a profit.

    Since inception  of the  Existing Class  A Plan,  the reimbursable  expenses
incurred  thereunder  by PMFD  have generally  equalled  or exceeded  the amount

                                       39
<PAGE>
reimbursed by the Fund. For each of the fiscal years ended August 31, 1991, 1992
and 1993, PMFD received payments representing .10 of 1% of the average daily net
assets of the  Class A  shares of  each series  (except the  Florida Series)  as
reimbursement  of expenses incurred for Distribution Activities in the following
amounts:

</TABLE>

    Although PMFD agreed to limit  its fees under the  Existing Class A Plan  to
.10  of 1% for the fiscal years ended August 31, 1991 and 1992 and .25 of 1% for
the fiscal year ended August 31, 1993, it  in fact limited its fee to .10 of  1%
for  all three  fiscal years  even though  its direct  and indirect reimbursable
distribution expenses exceeded  such amount.  PMFD believes that  it would  have
similarly  limited its fee had  the Proposed Class A  Plan been in effect during
the past three fiscal years, although it could have assessed the maximum  annual
fee  of .30 of 1%.  Regardless of which Plan will  be in effect, the Distributor
has voluntarily agreed to limit its fees for Distribution Activities to no  more
than  .10 of 1% of  the average daily net  assets of the Class  A shares of each
series for the fiscal  year ending August 31,  1994. Other expenses incurred  by
PMFD for Distribution Activities have been and will continue to be paid from the
proceeds of initial sales charges.

    Among  the major perceived benefits of a compensation type plan, such as the
Proposed Class A  Plan, over  a reimbursement type  plan, such  as the  Existing
Class  A  Plan,  is the  facilitation  of administration  and  accounting. Under
reimbursement plans,  all expenses  must be  specifically accounted  for by  the
Distributor and attributed to the specific class of shares of a fund in order to
qualify  for reimbursement. Although the Proposed  Class A Plan will continue to
require quarterly reporting  to the  Trustees of  the amounts  accrued and  paid
under the Plan and of the expenses actually borne by the Distributor, there will
be no need

                                       40
<PAGE>
   
to match specific expenses to reimbursements as under the Existing Class A Plan.
Thus,  the accounting for the Proposed Class  A Plan would be simplified and the
timing of when expenditures are  to be made by the  Distributor would not be  an
issue.  These considerations, combined with  the reasonable likelihood, although
there is no assurance, that the per annum payment rate under the Proposed  Class
A  Plan  will  not  exceed  the  expenses  incurred  by  PMFD  for  Distribution
Activities, suggest that the costs  and efforts associated with a  reimbursement
plan are unwarranted.
    

   
    In  considering whether to  approve the Proposed Class  A Plan, the Trustees
reviewed, among  other  things, the  nature  and scope  of  the services  to  be
provided  by  PMFD,  the  purchase  options  available  to  investors  under the
Alternative Purchase Plan, the amount of expenditures under the Existing Class A
Plan, the relationship  of such expenditures  to the overall  cost structure  of
each  series  and comparative  data  with respect  to  distribution arrangements
adopted by other  investment companies.  Based upon such  review, the  Trustees,
including  a majority  of the  Rule 12b-1 Trustees,  determined that  there is a
reasonable likelihood that the Proposed Class  A Plan will benefit the Fund  and
its Class A shareholders.
    

    If  approved by  shareholders, the  Proposed Class  A Plan  will continue in
effect from  year  to year,  provided  such  continuance is  approved  at  least
annually by vote of a majority of the Trustees, including a majority of the Rule
12b-1 Trustees.

REQUIRED VOTE

   
    If  Proposal No. 2  is approved by  shareholders, the Proposed  Class A Plan
will require the approval of a majority of the outstanding voting Class A shares
and Class B shares (as  defined in the Investment  Company Act) of each  series,
other  than the Money Market Series, voting separately. If Proposal No. 2 is not
approved by  shareholders, the  Proposed  Class A  Plan  will only  require  the
approval  of a majority of each series' outstanding voting Class A shares. Under
the Investment Company Act, a majority of a class' outstanding voting shares  is
defined  as  the  lesser  of  (i) 67%  of  a  class'  outstanding  voting shares
represented at a meeting at which more than 50% of the outstanding voting shares
of the class are present  in person or represented by  proxy, or (ii) more  than
50%  of a class' outstanding voting shares. If  the Proposed Class A Plan is not
approved as described above by the shareholders of a series, the Existing  Class
A Plan will continue in its present form with respect to such series.
    

    THE TRUSTEES RECOMMEND THAT YOU VOTE "FOR" THIS PROPOSAL NO. 3.

                                (PROPOSAL NO. 4)

    On May 6, 1993, the Fund's Trustees approved an amended and restated Class B
Distribution  and  Service  Plan pursuant  to  Rule 12b-1  under  the Investment
Company Act and  an amended  and restated  Class B  Distribution Agreement  with
Prudential  Securities for Class B shares of the Fund (the Proposed Class B Plan
and the Proposed  Class B  Distribution Agreement,  respectively) and  recommend
submission  of the  Proposed Class B  Plan to  the Class B  shareholders of each
series for approval or disapproval at this Special Meeting of Shareholders.  The
Proposed  Class  B Distribution  Agreement does  not require,  and is  not being
submitted for, shareholder approval.

    The purpose  of  the Proposed  Class  B  Plan is  to  compensate  Prudential
Securities,  the  distributor  of  the  Fund's  Class  B  shares,  for providing
distribution assistance  to  broker-dealers,  including  Prusec,  an  affiliated
broker-dealer,  and  other  qualified broker-dealers,  if  any,  whose customers
invest in Class  B shares  of the  Fund and to  defray the  costs and  expenses,
including  the payment of  account servicing fees, of  the services provided and
activities undertaken to distribute Class B shares (Distribution Activities).

    The Trustees previously adopted a plan of distribution for the Fund's  Class
B  shares pursuant  to Rule  12b-1 under  the Investment  Company Act  which was
approved by shareholders on December 18, 1989 and last approved by the  Trustees
on  May 6, 1993 (the Existing Class B  Plan). Shareholders of the Class B shares
of each series are  being asked to  approve amendments to  the Existing Class  B
Plan  that change it from a reimbursement type plan to a compensation type plan.
The amendments  do  not change  the  maximum annual  fee  that may  be  paid  to
Prudential  Securities under the Existing Class B Plan, although the possibility
exists that  expenses incurred  by Prudential  Securities and  for which  it  is
entitled  to be reimbursed under the Existing Class  B Plan may be less than the
fee Prudential Securities  will receive  under the  Proposed Class  B Plan.  The
amendments  are being proposed to  facilitate administration and accounting. The
Trustees believe that the Proposed Class B  Plan is in the best interest of  the
Fund and is reasonably likely to benefit the Fund's Class B shareholders. A copy
of the Proposed Class B Plan is attached hereto as Exhibit D.

                                       42
<PAGE>
THE EXISTING CLASS B PLAN

   
    Under  the Existing Class B Plan,  the Fund reimburses Prudential Securities
for expenses incurred for Distribution Activities at an annual rate of up to .50
of 1% of the average daily net assets of the Class B shares (up to .25 of 1%  of
which  may  constitute  a  service  fee for  the  servicing  and  maintenance of
shareholder accounts). Amounts  reimbursable under  the Plan that  are not  paid
because  they exceed the maximum fee  payable thereunder are carried forward and
may be recovered in future years by Prudential Securities from asset-based sales
charges imposed on Class B shares, to the extent such charges do not exceed  .50
of  1% per annum of the average daily net assets of the Class B shares, and from
contingent deferred sales charges received from certain redeeming  shareholders,
subject  to the limitations  of Article III,  Section 26 of  the NASD Rules. The
NASD Rules place an annual limit  of .25 of 1% on  fees that may be imposed  for
the provision of personal service and/or the maintenance of shareholder accounts
(service fees) and an annual limit of .75 of 1% on asset-based sales charges (as
defined  in the NASD Rules). Pursuant to  the NASD Rules, the aggregate deferred
sales charges and asset-based sales  charges on Class B  shares of a series  may
not, subject to certain exclusions, exceed 6.25% of total gross sales of Class B
shares of the series.
    

   
    The  Existing Class  B Plan  may not be  amended to  increase materially the
amount to be  spent for  the services described  therein without  approval by  a
majority  of the holders  of the Class B  shares of each series  of the Fund. In
addition, all material amendments thereof must be approved by vote of a majority
of the Trustees, including a majority of the Rule 12b-1 Trustees, cast in person
at a meeting  called for  the purpose  of voting  on the  Plan. So  long as  the
Existing  Class B Plan is in effect,  the selection and nomination of Rule 12b-1
Trustees will be committed to the discretion of the Rule 12b-1 Trustees.
    

    The Existing Class B Plan may be  terminated at any time without payment  of
any  penalty by the vote of a majority of the Rule 12b-1 Trustees or by the vote
of a majority of  the outstanding Class  B shares of  the applicable series  (as
defined  in the Investment Company Act) on  written notice to any other party to
such Plan and will  automatically terminate in the  event of its assignment  (as
defined  in the Investment Company Act). For  a more detailed description of the
Existing Class B Plan, see "Management of the Fund -- The Distributors --  Class
B Plan."

THE PROPOSED CLASS B PLAN

    The  Proposed Class B Plan amends the  Existing Class B Plan in one material
respect. Under  the  Existing  Class  B Plan,  the  Fund  reimburses  Prudential
Securities  for  expenses actually  incurred for  Distribution Activities  up to

                                       43
<PAGE>
   
a maximum of .50 of 1% per annum of the average daily net assets of the Class  B
shares.  The  Proposed  Class  B  Plan authorizes  the  Fund  to  pay Prudential
Securities the  same maximum  annual fee  as compensation  for its  Distribution
Activities  regardless  of the  expenses incurred  by Prudential  Securities for
Distribution Activities. In contrast to the  Existing Class B Plan, the  amounts
payable  by  the Fund  under the  Proposed Class  B Plan  would not  be directly
related to  the expenses  actually  incurred by  Prudential Securities  for  its
Distribution  Activities. Consequently,  if Prudential  Securities' expenses are
less than its distribution and  service fees, it will  retain its full fees  and
realize  a  profit.  However,  if  Prudential  Securities'  expenses  exceed the
distribution and service fees received under the Proposed Class B Plan, it  will
no longer carry forward such amounts for reimbursement in future years.
    

    Since  inception of the  Existing Class B  Plan, the cumulative reimbursable
expenses incurred thereunder by Prudential Securities have exceeded the  amounts
reimbursed  by  the Fund.  As  of December  31,  1993, the  aggregate  amount of
distribution expenses incurred and not yet reimbursed by each series of the Fund
or  recovered  through  contingent  deferred  sales  charges  was  approximately
$1,502,400  for the Arizona Series, $862,200  for the Georgia Series, $1,321,900
for the Maryland Series, $1,563,100 for the Massachusetts Series, $2,229,000 for
the Michigan Series, $989,900 for the Minnesota Series, $10,178,300 for the  New
Jersey  Series, $8,897,800  for the  New York  Series, $2,098,000  for the North
Carolina  Series,  $939,100  for  the   Ohio  Series  and  $7,360,900  for   the
Pennsylvania Series.

    For  the  fiscal years  ended  August 31,  1991,  1992 and  1993, Prudential
Securities received the distribution  fees paid by the  following series of  the

    Since the maximum annual fee under the Existing Class B Plan is the same  as
under  the Proposed Class B Plan,  Prudential Securities would have received the
same annual fee under  the Proposed Class  B Plan as it  did under the  Existing
Class B Plan for the fiscal years ended August 31, 1991, 1992 and 1993.

    Among  the major perceived benefits of a compensation type plan, such as the
Proposed Class B  Plan, over  a reimbursement type  plan, such  as the  Existing
Class  B  Plan,  is the  facilitation  of administration  and  accounting. Under
reimbursement plans,  all expenses  must be  specifically accounted  for by  the
Distributor and attributed to the specific class of shares of a fund in order to
qualify  for reimbursement. Although the Proposed  Class B Plan will continue to
require quarterly reporting  to the  Trustees of  the amounts  accrued and  paid
under the Plan and of the expenses actually borne by the Distributor, there will
be  no need to match specific expenses to reimbursements and no carrying forward
of such amounts, as under  the Existing Class B  Plan. Thus, the accounting  for
the  Proposed  Class  B  Plan  would  be  simplified  and  the  timing  of  when
expenditures are to be made by the Distributor ordinarily would not be an issue.
Currently, because  the Existing  Class  B Plan  is  a reimbursement  plan,  the
Distributor  retains an independent expert to perform a study of its methodology
for determining  and substantiating  which of  its expenses  should properly  be
allocated  to the Class B  shares of each series  for reimbursement, the cost of
which is  borne by  the Fund  and other  funds for  which Prudential  Securities
serves  as distributor.  These considerations, combined  with the  fact that the
cumulative  expenses  incurred   by  Prudential   Securities  for   Distribution
Activities have exceeded the amounts reimbursed by the series under the Existing
Class B Plan, suggest that the costs and efforts associated with a reimbursement
plan are unwarranted.

   
    In  considering whether to  approve the Proposed Class  B Plan, the Trustees
reviewed, among  other  things, the  nature  and scope  of  the services  to  be
provided  by Prudential Securities, the  purchase options available to investors
under the  Alternative  Purchase Plan,  the  amount of  expenditures  under  the
Existing Class B Plan, the relationship of such expenditures to the overall cost
structure  of  each series  and comparative  data  with respect  to distribution
arrangements adopted by other investment companies. Based upon such review,  the
Trustees, including a majority of the Rule 12b-1 Trustees, determined that there
is  a reasonable likelihood that the Proposed Class B Plan will benefit the Fund
and its Class B shareholders.
    

    If approved by Class B shareholders, the Proposed Class B Plan will continue
in effect from  year to  year, provided such  continuance is  approved at  least
annually by vote of a majority of the Trustees, including a majority of the Rule
12b-1 Trustees.

REQUIRED VOTE

   
    The  Proposed  Class B  Plan  requires the  approval  of a  majority  of the
outstanding Class B shares  (as defined in the  Investment Company Act) of  each
series, other than the Money Market Series and the Florida Series, as defined in
    

                                       46

the  Investment  Company Act  and  as described  under  Proposal No.  3.  If the
Proposed Class B Plan is not approved,  the Existing Class B Plan will  continue
in its present form.

               APPROVAL OF ELIMINATION OF THE FUND'S FUNDAMENTAL
                  INVESTMENT RESTRICTIONS REGARDING RESTRICTED
                            AND ILLIQUID SECURITIES
                                (PROPOSAL NO. 5)

   
    On  May 6, 1993,  at the request  of the Fund's  Manager and Subadviser, the
Trustees considered  and  recommend for  shareholder  approval revision  of  the
Fund's  fundamental  investment restrictions  regarding illiquid  and restricted
securities. The Trustees recommend elimination of Investment Restriction No.  8,
which prohibits the purchase of securities that are restricted as to disposition
under  federal securities laws. Further,  the Trustees recommend modification of
Investment Restriction  No.  10  to eliminate  restrictions  on  investments  in
repurchase  agreements  with  maturities of  longer  than seven  days  and other
illiquid assets.
    

   
    Investment Restriction No. 8, which is proposed to be eliminated,  currently
provides as follows:
    
   
    The Fund may not:
    
        Purchase  any security  restricted as  to disposition  under federal
    securities laws.

    Investment Restriction  No.  10  is  proposed  to  be  modified  as  follows
(deletions in brackets).

    The Fund may not:

        Make   loans,  except  through  repurchase  agreements  [(repurchase
    agreements with a maturity of longer than 7 days together with  illiquid
    assets  being limited  to 10%  (except with  respect to  New York Income
    Series) of the total assets of any series)].

    The  Trustees   recommend  replacement   of  such   fundamental   investment
restrictions  with a non-fundamental investment policy that could be modified by
the vote  of the  Trustees  in response  to  regulatory or  market  developments
without  further approval  by shareholders. The  proposed non-fundamental policy
would provide as follows:

   
        A series may invest up to 15%  (10% for the money market series)  of
    its  net assets  in illiquid securities  including repurchase agreements
    

                                       47
<PAGE>
    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.  Securities,  including
    municipal  lease obligations, that  have a readily  available market are
    not considered illiquid for purposes of this limitation. The  investment
    adviser  will monitor the liquidity  of such restricted securities under
    the supervision of the Trustees. Repurchase agreements subject to demand
    are deemed to have a maturity equal to the applicable notice period.

   
    An open-end  investment  company  may  not  hold  a  significant  amount  of
restricted securities or illiquid securities because such securities may present
problems  of accurate valuation  and because it is  possible that the investment
company would  have difficulty  satisfying redemptions  within seven  days.  The
proposed  investment policy is  not expected by  the Manager or  the Trustees to
affect the series' liquidity.
    

    Historically, illiquid securities  have been defined  to include  securities
subject  to contractual  or legal restrictions  on resale,  securities for which
there is no readily available market and repurchase agreements having a maturity
of longer than seven days. In recent years, however, the securities markets have
evolved significantly,  with  the result  that  new types  of  instruments  have
developed  which make  the Fund's  present restrictions  on illiquid investments
overly broad and unnecessarily restrictive in the view of the Fund's Manager. In
1992, the SEC staff issued amended guidelines  to the effect that up to 15%  (as
opposed  to 10%) of  an open-end fund's  net assets may  be invested in illiquid
securities, including repurchase agreements with a maturity of longer than seven
days. The guidelines were amended in connection with the SEC's efforts to remove
unnecessary barriers  to  capital formation  and  to facilitate  access  to  the
capital markets by small businesses.

    In  reaching  liquidity  decisions,  the  Manager  and  the  Subadviser will
consider, INTER ALIA, 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).

                                       48
<PAGE>
    With  respect to  municipal lease  obligations, the  investment adviser also
considers: (1)  the willingness  of the  municipality to  continue, annually  or
biannually,  to  appropriate funds  for payment  of the  lease; (2)  the general
credit quality of the municipality and  the essentiality to the municipality  of
the  property covered by the  lease; (3) in the  case of unrated municipal lease
obligations, an  analysis of  factors similar  to that  performed by  nationally
recognized  statistical rating organizations in evaluating the credit quality of
a municipal lease obligation, including (i) whether the lease can be  cancelled,
(ii)  if applicable, what assurance there is  that the assets represented by the
lease can be sold, (iii) the strength of the lessee's general credit (E.G.,  its
debt,   administrative,  economic  and   financial  characteristics),  (iv)  the
likelihood that the municipality will discontinue appropriating funding for  the
leased  property  because the  property  is no  longer  deemed essential  to the
operation  of  the   municipality  (E.G.,   the  potential  for   an  event   of
non-appropriation),  and  (v) the  legal  recourse in  the  event of  failure to
appropriate; and (4) any other factors unique to municipal lease obligations  as
determined by the investment adviser.

   
    The  Trustees  believe  that adoption  of  Proposal  No. 5  is  in  the best
interests of the series and their shareholders.
    

REQUIRED VOTE

   
    Adoption of Proposal No. 5 requires the affirmative vote of the holders of a
majority of the outstanding voting securities  of each series as defined in  the
Investment  Company  Act. Under  the  Investment Company  Act,  a majority  of a
series' outstanding voting shares  is defined as  the lesser of  (i) 67% of  the
series'  outstanding voting shares  represented at a meeting  at which more than
50% of the  outstanding voting shares  of the  series are present  in person  or
represented  by proxy or  (ii) more than  50% of the  series' outstanding voting
shares. If the proposed change in investment policy is not approved by a series,
the current limitations would remain a fundamental policy of that series,  which
could  not be  changed without  the approval  of a  majority of  the outstanding
voting securities of that series.

                     APPROVAL OF ELIMINATION OF THE FUND'S
               INVESTMENT RESTRICTION LIMITING INVESTMENT IN THE
                 SECURITIES OF ANY ISSUER IN WHICH THE OFFICERS
                      AND TRUSTEES OF THE FUND OR OFFICERS
   AND DIRECTORS OF ITS INVESTMENT ADVISER OWN MORE THAN A SPECIFIED INTEREST
                                (PROPOSAL NO. 6)

    On May  6,  1993,  at  the  request of  the  Fund's  Manager,  the  Trustees
considered  and  recommend for  shareholder approval  elimination of  the Fund's
Investment Restriction No. 5, which provides that the Fund may not:

        Invest in securities of any issuer if, to the knowledge of the Fund, any
    officer or Trustee of the  Fund or officer or  director of the adviser  owns
    more  than .5 of 1%  of the outstanding securities  of such issuer, and such
    officers, Trustees and  directors who  own more  than .5  of 1%  own in  the
    aggregate more than 5% of the outstanding securities of such issuer.

   
    The  Manager has advised  the Trustees that the  restriction upon the Fund's
investing in companies in which officers and Trustees of the Fund or the Manager
own more  than .5  of  1% of  the outstanding  securities  of such  company  was
initially  adopted to comply  with a restriction imposed  in connection with the
sale of the Fund's shares  in Ohio. If the proposal  is approved, the Fund  will
continue to comply with the restriction as a non-fundamental operating policy so
long  as the Fund sells  its shares in Ohio. However,  if Ohio were to eliminate
the requirement or the Fund  stopped offering its shares  for sale in Ohio,  the
Trustees   could  eliminate  the  operating  policy  without  the  necessity  of
shareholder approval. The Fund  does not currently intend  to stop offering  its
shares  in Ohio, nor is the Fund or  the Fund's Manager aware of any proposal to
change the Ohio law.
    

   
    The Trustees  believe  that  adoption of  Proposal  No.  6 is  in  the  best
interests of the series and their shareholders.
    

REQUIRED VOTE
    Amendment  of  the  Fund's  investment  restrictions  to  delete  Investment
Restriction No. 5 requires the approval of a majority of the outstanding  voting
securities  of each  series, as  defined in  the Investment  Company Act  and as
described under  Proposal No.  5 above.  If the  proposed change  in  investment
policy  is not  approved by  a series,  the current  limitations would  remain a
fundamental policy  of  that series  which  could  not be  changed  without  the
approval of a majority of the outstanding voting securities of that series.

                    RATIFICATION OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS
                                (PROPOSAL NO. 7)

   
    The  Trustees  of the  Fund, including  Rule  12b-1 Trustees,  have selected
Deloitte & Touche as  independent accountants for the  Fund for the fiscal  year
ending  August 31, 1994. The ratification of the selection of independent public
accountants is to  be voted  upon at  the Meeting and  it is  intended that  the
persons  named in  the accompanying  Proxy will vote  for Deloitte  & Touche. No
representative of Deloitte & Touche is expected to be present at the Meeting  of
Shareholders.
    

    The  policy  of  the Trustees  regarding  engaging  independent accountants'
services is that management may  engage the Fund's principal independent  public
accountants   to  perform  any  service(s)   normally  provided  by  independent
accounting firms,  provided that  such service(s)  meet(s) any  and all  of  the
independence   requirements  of  the  American  Institute  of  Certified  Public
Accountants and the  SEC. In accordance  with this policy,  the Audit  Committee
reviews and approves all services provided by the independent public accountants
prior  to their being rendered.  The Trustees of the  Fund receive a report from
their Audit Committee relating to all services after they have been performed by
the Fund's independent accountants.

REQUIRED VOTE

    The affirmative vote of a  majority of the shares  present, in person or  by
proxy, at the Meeting is required for ratification.

    THE TRUSTEES RECOMMEND THAT YOU VOTE "FOR" THIS PROPOSAL NO. 7.

                                 OTHER MATTERS

    No  business other than as  set forth herein is  expected to come before the
Meeting, but should  any other matter  requiring a vote  of shareholders  arise,
including any question as to an adjournment of the Meeting, the persons named in
the  enclosed proxy will  vote thereon according  to their best  judgment in the
interest of the Fund.

                             SHAREHOLDER PROPOSALS

    As a Massachusetts business trust, the  Fund is not required to hold  annual
meetings  of shareholders and the Trustees currently  do not intend to hold such
meetings unless shareholder action is required in accordance with the Investment
Company  Act  or  the  Fund's  Declaration  of  Trust.  A  shareholder  proposal

                                       51
<PAGE>
   
intended  to be presented at any meeting of shareholders of the Fund hereinafter
called must  be received  by the  Fund a  reasonable time  before the  Trustees'
solicitation  relating thereto  is made  in order to  be included  in the Fund's
proxy statement and form of proxy relating to that meeting and presented at  the
meeting.  The mere submission of a proposal  by a shareholder does not guarantee
that such proposal will be included in the proxy statement because certain rules
under the federal securities laws must be complied with before inclusion of  the
proposal is required.

            PRUDENTIAL MUTUAL FUND MANAGEMENT, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
             NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED STATEMENT OF FINANCIAL CONDITION
                               DECEMBER 31, 1993

1.  SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
    Prudential  Mutual  Fund  Management,  Inc.  ("PMF")  and  subsidiaries (the
"Company"), an  indirect wholly-owned  subsidiary  of The  Prudential  Insurance
Company  of America (the "Prudential"), were  created to operate as the manager,
distributor and/or transfer agent for investment companies.

    PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION

    The consolidated financial statement  includes the accounts  of PMF and  its
wholly-owned  subsidiaries, Prudential  Mutual Fund Services,  Inc. ("PMFS") and
Prudential Mutual Fund  Distributors, Inc. ("PMFD").  All intercompany  profits,
transactions and balances have been eliminated.

    INCOME TAXES

    The  Company is a  member of a  group of affiliated  companies which join in
filing a consolidated Federal  income tax return. Pursuant  to a tax  allocation
agreement,  tax expense is  determined for individual  profitable companies on a
separate return basis. Profit members pay  this amount to an affiliated  company
which  in turn apportions  the payment among  the loss members  in proportion to
their losses.  In  January 1993,  the  Company adopted  Statement  of  Financial
Accounting  Standards No.  109, "Accounting  for Income  Taxes" (SFAS  109). The
adoption of SFAS 109 did not have  a material effect on the Company's  financial
position.

2.  SHORT-TERM INVESTMENTS
    At  December 31, 1993, the Company had invested $35,411,571 in several money
market funds which PMF manages.

3.  FURNITURE, EQUIPMENT AND LEASEHOLD IMPROVEMENTS
    Furniture, equipment and leasehold improvements consist of the following:

4.  RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
    In the ordinary course of business, the Company participates in a variety of
financial and administrative transactions with affiliates.

    The loan to affiliate  bears interest at 3.45  percent at December 31,  1993

advertising expenses, the cost of printing and mailing prospectuses to potential
investors,  and indirect and overhead costs of Prudential Securities and PruSec,
including lease,  utility,  communications  and  sales  promotion  expenses.  At

7.  PENSION AND OTHER POSTRETIREMENT BENEFITS
    The Company has two defined benefit pension plans (the "Plans") sponsored by
the  Prudential and Prudential Securities. The  Plans cover substantially all of
the Company's employees. The funding policy is to contribute annually the amount
necessary  to  satisfy  the  Internal  Revenue  Service  funding  standards.  In
addition,  the Company  has two  defined benefit  plans for  key executives, the
Supplemental Retirement  Plan  (SRP)  for  which  estimated  pension  costs  are
currently accrued but not funded.

    The  Company provides  certain health care  and life  insurance benefits for
eligible retired  employees.  Effective January  1,  1993, the  Company  adopted
Statement  of Financial Accounting Standards No. 106, "Employers' Accounting for
Postretirement Benefits Other Than Pensions" ("SFAS 106"). SFAS 106 changed  the
practice of accounting for postretirement benefits on a cash basis to an accrual
basis,  whereby employers  record the  projected future  cost of  providing such
postretirement benefits as  employees render services  instead of when  benefits
are paid. This new accounting method has no effect on the Company's cash outlays
for  these  retirement benefits.  The adoption  of SFAS  106 did  not materially
impact the Company's financial position.

    The Financial Accounting Standards Board  has issued Statement of  Financial
Accounting   Standards  No.  112,   "Employers'  Accounting  for  Postemployment
Benefits," ("SFAS  112") which  is effective  for fiscal  years beginning  after
December  15, 1993. Although several benefits  are fully insured which result in
no SFAS 112 obligation,  the Company currently has  an obligation and  resulting

7.  PENSION AND OTHER POSTRETIREMENT BENEFITS (CONTINUED)
expense under SFAS 112 for medical benefits provided under long-term disability.
The  Company will adopt  SFAS 112 on  January 1, 1994.  Management believes that
implementation will have no material effect on the Company's financial position.

8.  CONTINGENCY
    On October 12, 1993, a purported class action lawsuit was instituted against
PMF, et al and certain  current and former directors of  a fund managed by  PMF.
The  plaintiffs seek damages  in an unspecified  amount for excessive management
and distribution fees they allege were incurred by them. Although the outcome of
this litigation cannot be  predicted at this time,  the defendants believe  they
have  meritorious defenses to the claims asserted in the complaint and intend to
defend this action vigorously. In any case, management does not believe that the
outcome of  this action  is likely  to have  a material  adverse effect  on  the
Company's financial position.

    such Class  shall have  identical voting,  dividend, liquidation  and  other

                                (CLASS A SHARES)
                                  INTRODUCTION

    The  Distribution  and Service  Plan  (the Plan)  set  forth below  which is
designed to  conform to  the requirements  of Rule  12b-1 under  the  Investment
Company  Act of 1940 (the Investment Company Act) and Article III, Section 26 of
the Rules of Fair  Practice of the National  Association of Securities  Dealers,
Inc.  (NASD) has been adopted by Prudential Municipal Series Fund (the Fund) and
by Prudential  Mutual  Fund  Distributors, Inc.,  the  Fund's  distributor  (the
Distributor).

   
    The  Fund has  entered into a  distribution agreement pursuant  to which the
Fund will employ the Distributor to distribute Class A shares issued by the Fund
(Class A shares). Under the Plan, the Fund intends to pay to the Distributor, as
compensation for its services,  a distribution and service  fee with respect  to
Class A shares.
    

    A  majority  of the  Trustees of  the  Fund, including  a majority  of those
Trustees who  are  not "interested  persons"  of the  Fund  (as defined  in  the
Investment Company Act) and who have no direct or indirect financial interest in
the  operation of  this Plan  or any  agreements related  to it  (the Rule 12b-1
Trustees), have determined by votes cast in  person at a meeting called for  the
purpose  of  voting on  this Plan  that  there is  a reasonable  likelihood that
adoption of this Plan will benefit  the Fund and its shareholders.  Expenditures
under  this Plan  by the  Fund for  Distribution Activities  (defined below) are
primarily intended to result in  the sale of Class A  shares of the Fund  within
the  meaning of paragraph (a)(2) of  Rule 12b-1 promulgated under the Investment
Company Act.

    The purpose of the  Plan is to create  incentives to the Distributor  and/or
other   qualified  broker-dealers  and  their   account  executives  to  provide
distribution assistance to  their customers who  are investors in  the Fund,  to
defray  the costs  and expenses  associated with  the preparation,  printing and
distribution of  prospectuses and  sales literature  and other  promotional  and
distribution  activities and  to provide  for the  servicing and  maintenance of
shareholder accounts.

<PAGE>
                                    THE PLAN

    The material aspects of the Plan are as follows:

    1.  DISTRIBUTION ACTIVITIES

        The Fund shall engage  the Distributor to distribute  Class A shares  of
    the  Fund and to service shareholder accounts using all of the facilities of
    the distribution networks of Prudential Securities Incorporated  (Prudential
    Securities)  and  Pruco  Securities  Corporation  (Prusec),  including sales
    personnel and branch office and central support systems, and also using such
    other qualified broker-dealers and financial institutions as the Distributor
    may select. Services provided and activities undertaken to distribute  Class
    A shares of the Fund are referred to herein as "Distribution Activities."

    2.  PAYMENT OF SERVICE FEE

        The  Fund shall  pay to  the Distributor  as compensation  for providing
    personal service and/or  maintaining shareholder accounts  a service fee  of
    .25  of 1% per annum of  the average daily net assets  of the Class A shares
    (service fee). The Fund shall calculate and accrue daily amounts payable  by
    the  Class A shares of the Fund hereunder and shall pay such amounts monthly
    or at such other intervals as the Trustees may determine.

    3.  PAYMENT FOR DISTRIBUTION ACTIVITIES

        The Fund shall pay to the Distributor as compensation for its services a
    distribution fee,  together with  the service  fee (described  in Section  2
    hereof), of .30 of 1% per annum of the average daily net assets of the Class
    A  shares of  the Fund for  the performance of  Distribution Activities. The
    Fund shall calculate and accrue daily amounts payable by the Class A  shares
    of  the Fund hereunder and  shall pay such amounts  monthly or at such other
    intervals as  the Trustees  may determine.  Amounts payable  under the  Plan
    shall  be subject to the limitations of  Article III, Section 26 of the NASD
    Rules of Fair Practice.

        Amounts paid to the Distributor  by the Class A shares of the Fund  will
    not  be used to pay  the distribution expenses incurred  with respect to any
    other class  of  shares  of  the  Fund  except  that  distribution  expenses
    attributable  to the Fund as a whole will be allocated to the Class A shares
    according to the ratio of the sales of Class A shares to the total sales  of
    the  Fund's  shares over  the Fund's  fiscal year  or such  other allocation
    method approved by  the Trustees.  The allocation  of distribution  expenses
    among classes will be subject to the review of the Trustees.

                                      C-2
<PAGE>
          The Distributor  shall spend such  amounts as it  deems appropriate on
    Distribution Activities which include, among others:

            (a) amounts paid  to Prudential Securities  for performing  services
        under  a selected dealer agreement between Prudential Securities and the
        Distributor for sale  of Class  A shares  of the  Fund, including  sales
        commissions  and trailer commissions paid to,  or on account of, account
        executives and indirect and overhead costs associated with  Distribution
        Activities, including central office and branch expenses;

            (b)  amounts paid to Prusec for performing services under a selected
        dealer agreement between Prusec and the Distributor for sale of Class  A
        shares  of the Fund, including sales commissions and trailer commissions
        paid to,  or on  account  of, agents  and  indirect and  overhead  costs
        associated with Distribution Activities;

            (c)  advertising for the Fund in various forms through any available
        medium, including the  cost of printing  and mailing Fund  prospectuses,
        statements  of additional information and periodic financial reports and
        sales literature to persons other than current shareholders of the Fund;
        and

            (d) sales commissions (including trailer commissions) paid to, or on
        account  of,  broker-dealers  and  financial  institutions  (other  than
        Prudential  Securities  and  Prusec) which  have  entered  into selected
        dealer agreements with the Distributor with respect to Class A shares of
        the Fund.

    4.  QUARTERLY REPORTS; ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

   
        An appropriate officer of the Fund  will provide to the Trustees of  the
    Fund  for  review,  at  least  quarterly,  a  written  report  specifying in
    reasonable  detail  the   amounts  expended   for  Distribution   Activities
    (including  payment  of the  service fee)  and the  purposes for  which such
    expenditures were made in  compliance with the  requirements of Rule  12b-1.
    The  Distributor will  provide to the  Trustees of the  Fund such additional
    information as  the Trustees  shall from  time to  time reasonably  request,
    including  information  about Distribution  Activities  undertaken or  to be
    undertaken by the Distributor.
    

        The Distributor will inform the Trustees of the Fund of the  commissions
    and  account  servicing  fees  to  be paid  by  the  Distributor  to account
    executives  of  the   Distributor  and  to   broker-dealers  and   financial
    institutions which have selected dealer agreements with the Distributor.

    5.  EFFECTIVENESS; CONTINUATION

        The Plan shall not take effect until it has been approved by a vote of a
    majority  of the outstanding voting securities (as defined in the Investment
    Company Act) of the Class A shares of the Fund.

                                      C-3
<PAGE>
        If approved by a vote of a majority of the outstanding voting securities
    of the Class A shares of the Fund, the Plan shall, unless earlier terminated
    in accordance with its terms, continue  in full force and effect  thereafter
    for  so long as such continuance  is specifically approved at least annually
    by a majority of the Trustees of the  Fund and a majority of the Rule  12b-1
    Trustees  by votes  cast in person  at a  meeting called for  the purpose of
    voting on the continuation of the Plan.

    6.  TERMINATION

        This Plan may be  terminated at any  time by vote of  a majority of  the
    Rule  12b-1 Trustees,  or by  vote of a  majority of  the outstanding voting
    securities (as defined in the Investment Company Act) of the Class A  shares
    of the Fund.

    7.  AMENDMENTS

        The  Plan  may  not  be  amended  to  change  the  combined  service and
    distribution expenses to be paid as provided for in Sections 2 and 3  hereof
    so as to increase materially the amounts payable under this Plan unless such
    amendment  shall be approved  by the vote  of a majority  of the outstanding
    voting securities (as defined in the Investment Company Act) of the Class  A
    shares of the Fund. All material amendments of the Plan shall be approved by
    a  majority of  the Trustees of  the Fund and  a majority of  the Rule 12b-1
    Trustees by votes  cast in person  at a  meeting called for  the purpose  of
    voting on the Plan.

    8.  RULE 12B-1 TRUSTEES

        While  the Plan is in  effect, the selection and  nomination of the Rule
    12b-1 Trustees  shall be  committed  to the  discretion  of the  Rule  12b-1
    Trustees.

    9.  RECORDS

        The  Fund shall preserve  copies of the Plan  and any related agreements
    and all reports made pursuant to Section 4 hereof, for a period of not  less
    than  six years from the date of  effectiveness of the Plan, such agreements
    or reports, and for  at least the  first two years  in an easily  accessible

                        PRUDENTIAL MUNICIPAL SERIES FUND
                         DISTRIBUTION AND SERVICE PLAN,
                                (CLASS B SHARES)
                                  INTRODUCTION

   
    The  Distribution  and Service  Plan  (the Plan)  set  forth below  which is
designed to  conform to  the requirements  of Rule  12b-1 under  the  Investment
Company  Act of 1940 (the Investment Company Act) and Article III, Section 26 of
the Rules of Fair  Practice of the National  Association of Securities  Dealers,
Inc.  (NASD) has been adopted by Prudential Municipal Series Fund (the Fund) and
by  Prudential  Securities  Incorporated  (Prudential  Securities),  the  Fund's
distributor (the Distributor).
    

   
    The  Fund has  entered into a  distribution agreement pursuant  to which the
Fund will employ the Distributor to distribute Class B shares issued by the Fund
(Class B shares). Under the Plan, the Fund wishes to pay to the Distributor,  as
compensation  for its services,  a distribution and service  fee with respect to
Class B shares.
    

    A majority of  the Trustees of  the Fund  including a majority  who are  not
"interested  persons" of the Fund (as defined in the Investment Company Act) and
who have no direct or indirect financial interest in the operation of this  Plan
or  any agreements related to  it (the Rule 12b-1  Trustees), have determined by
votes cast in person at a meeting called for the purpose of voting on this  Plan
that  there is a reasonable  likelihood that adoption of  this Plan will benefit
the Fund and  its shareholders.  Expenditures under this  Plan by  the Fund  for
Distribution  Activities (defined below) are primarily intended to result in the
sale of Class B  shares of the  Fund within the meaning  of paragraph (a)(2)  of
Rule 12b-1 promulgated under the Investment Company Act.

    The  purpose of the Plan  is to create incentives  to the Distributor and/or
other  qualified  broker-dealers  and   their  account  executives  to   provide
distribution  assistance to  their customers who  are investors in  the Fund, to
defray the  costs and  expenses associated  with the  preparation, printing  and
distribution  of  prospectuses and  sales literature  and other  promotional and
distribution activities  and to  provide for  the servicing  and maintenance  of
shareholder accounts.

                                      D-1
<PAGE>
                                    THE PLAN

    The material aspects of the Plan are as follows:

    1.  DISTRIBUTION ACTIVITIES

        The  Fund shall engage  the Distributor to distribute  Class B shares of
    the Fund and to service shareholder accounts using all of the facilities  of
    the Prudential Securities distribution network including sales personnel and
    branch  office  and  central  support systems,  and  also  using  such other
    qualified broker-dealers and financial  institutions as the Distributor  may
    select,  including Pruco Securities  Corporation (Prusec). Services provided
    and activities  undertaken to  distribute Class  B shares  of the  Fund  are
    referred to herein as "Distribution Activities."

    2.  PAYMENT OF SERVICE FEE

   
        The  Fund shall  pay to  the Distributor  as compensation  for providing
    personal service and/or  maintaining shareholder accounts  a service fee  of
    .25  of 1% per annum of  the average daily net assets  of the Class B shares
    (service fee). The Fund shall calculate and accrue daily amounts payable  by
    the  Class B shares of the Fund hereunder and shall pay such amounts monthly
    or at such other intervals as the Trustees may determine.
    

    3.  PAYMENT FOR DISTRIBUTION ACTIVITIES

        The Fund shall pay to the Distributor as compensation for its services a
    distribution fee,  together with  the service  fee (described  in Section  2
    hereof), of .50 of 1% per annum of the average daily net assets of the Class
    B  shares of  the Fund for  the performance of  Distribution Activities. The
    Fund shall calculate and accrue daily amounts payable by the Class B  shares
    of  the Fund hereunder and  shall pay such amounts  monthly or at such other
    intervals as  the Trustees  may determine.  Amounts payable  under the  Plan
    shall  be subject to the limitations of  Article III, Section 26 of the NASD
    Rules of Fair Practice.

        Amounts paid to the Distributor  by the Class B shares of the Fund  will
    not  be used to pay  the distribution expenses incurred  with respect to any
    other class  of  shares  of  the  Fund  except  that  distribution  expenses
    attributable  to the Fund as a whole will be allocated to the Class B shares
    according to the ratio of the sale of  Class B shares to the total sales  of
    the  Fund's  shares over  the Fund's  fiscal year  or such  other allocation
    method approved by  the Trustees.  The allocation  of distribution  expenses
    among classes will be subject to the review of the Trustees.

                                      D-2
<PAGE>
          The Distributor  shall spend such  amounts as it  deems appropriate on
    Distribution Activities which include, among others:

            (a) sales commissions (including trailer commissions) paid to, or on
        account of, account executives of the Distributor;

            (b) indirect and overhead costs  of the Distributor associated  with
        performance  of  Distribution  Activities including  central  office and
        branch expenses;

            (c) amounts paid to Prusec for performing services under a  selected
        dealer  agreement between Prusec and the Distributor for sale of Class B
        shares of the Fund, including sales commissions and trailer  commissions
        paid  to,  or on  account  of, agents  and  indirect and  overhead costs
        associated with Distribution Activities;

            (d) advertising for the Fund in various forms through any  available
        medium,  including the cost  of printing and  mailing Fund prospectuses,
        statements of additional information and periodic financial reports  and
        sales literature to persons other than current shareholders of the Fund;
        and

            (e) sales commissions (including trailer commissions) paid to, or on
        account  of, broker-dealers and other financial institutions (other than
        Prusec) which  have entered  into selected  dealer agreements  with  the
        Distributor with respect to Class B shares of the Fund.

    4.  QUARTERLY REPORTS; ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

   
        An  appropriate officer of the Fund will  provide to the Trustees of the
    Fund for  review,  at  least  quarterly,  a  written  report  specifying  in
    reasonable   detail  the   amounts  expended   for  Distribution  Activities
    (including payment  of the  service fee)  and the  purposes for  which  such
    expenditures  were made in  compliance with the  requirements of Rule 12b-1.
    The Distributor will  provide to the  Trustees of the  Fund such  additional
    information  as they shall  from time to  time reasonably request, including
    information about Distribution Activities undertaken or to be undertaken  by
    the Distributor.
    

         The Distributor will inform the Trustees of the Fund of the commissions
    and account  servicing  fees  to  be paid  by  the  Distributor  to  account
    executives  of  the Distributor  and to  broker-dealers and  other financial
    institutions which have selected dealer agreements with the Distributor.

    5.  EFFECTIVENESS; CONTINUATION

        The Plan shall not take effect until it has been approved by a vote of a
    majority of the outstanding voting securities (as defined in the  Investment
    Company Act) of the Class B shares of the Fund.

                                      D-3
<PAGE>
        If approved by a vote of a majority of the outstanding voting securities
    of the Class B shares of the Fund, the Plan shall, unless earlier terminated
    in  accordance with its terms, continue  in full force and effect thereafter
    for so long as such continuance  is specifically approved at least  annually
    by  a majority of the Trustees of the  Fund and a majority of the Rule 12b-1
    Trustees by votes  cast in person  at a  meeting called for  the purpose  of
    voting on the continuation of the Plan.

    6.  TERMINATION

        This  Plan may be  terminated at any time  by vote of  a majority of the
    Rule 12b-1 Trustees,  or by  vote of a  majority of  the outstanding  voting
    securities  (as defined in the Investment Company Act) of the Class B shares
    of the Fund.

    7.  AMENDMENTS

        The Plan  may  not  be  amended  to  change  the  combined  service  and
    distribution  expenses to be paid as provided for in Sections 2 and 3 hereof
    so as to increase materially the amounts payable under this Plan unless such
    amendment shall be  approved by the  vote of a  majority of the  outstanding
    voting  securities (as defined in the Investment Company Act) of the Class B
    shares of the Fund. All material amendments of the Plan shall be approved by
    a majority of  the Trustees of  the Fund and  a majority of  the Rule  12b-1
    Trustees  by votes  cast in person  at a  meeting called for  the purpose of
    voting on the Plan.

    8.  RULE 12B-1 TRUSTEES

        While the Plan is  in effect, the selection  and nomination of the  Rule
    12b-1  Trustees  shall be  committed  to the  discretion  of the  Rule 12b-1
    Trustees.

    9.  RECORDS

        The Fund shall preserve  copies of the Plan  and any related  agreements
    and  all reports made pursuant to Section 4 hereof, for a period of not less
    than six years from the date  of effectiveness of the Plan, such  agreements
    or  reports, and for  at least the  first two years  in an easily accessible
    place.
