                 MULTIPLE CLASS PLAN FOR KEYSTONE AMERICA FUNDS


         The Keystone  America Fund Family  currently offers a number of classes
of shares with the following class  provisions and current offering and exchange
characteristics.   Additional  classes  of  shares,   when  created,   may  have
characteristics that differ from those described.  References to percentages not
otherwise defined are to percentages of average daily net assets of a class.

         I.       CLASSES

         1.       Class A Shares

                  Keystone America Funds

                  Class A Shares have a  distribution  plan adopted  pursuant to
                  Rule 12b-1  under the  Investment  Company  Act of 1940 ("Rule
                  12b-1")  and/or  a  shareholder  services  plan,  which  plans
                  provide for payments, currently limited to 0.25% annually, for
                  distribution and/or shareholder services fees.

                  Class A Shares are offered with a front-end sales load, except
                  that  purchases  of Class A Shares  made on or after April 10,
                  1995 (a) in an amount equal to or exceeding $1 million  and/or
                  (b)  by  a   corporate   qualified   retirement   plan   or  a
                  non-qualified   deferred  compensation  plan  sponsored  by  a
                  corporation  having  100 or more  eligible  employees  are not
                  subject  to a  front-end  sales  load,  but are  subject  to a
                  contingent  deferred  sales  charge  ("CDSC")  of 1.00%  for a
                  period of 24 months from the date of purchase.

                  Class A Shares  may be  exchanged  for Class A Shares of other
                  Keystone  America Funds and Class A Shares of Keystone  Liquid
                  Trust.  Class A Shares  subject to a CDSC when  exchanged will
                  remain subject to the CDSC after the exchange.

                  Keystone Liquid Trust

                  Class A Shares have a  distribution  plan adopted  pursuant to
                  Rule 12b-1 and/or a  shareholder  services  plan,  which plans
                  provide for payments of up to 0.25% annually for  distribution
                  and/or shareholder services fees.

                  Class A Shares  are  offered  without  a sales  load.  Class A
                  Shares may be  exchanged  for Class A Shares of other funds in
                  the  Keystone  America  Fund Family and shares of funds in the
                  Keystone Fund Family.

         2.       Class B Shares

                  Keystone America Funds (except Keystone Capital
                  Preservation and Income Fund) and Keystone Liquid Trust

                  Class B Shares have  distribution  plans  adopted  pursuant to
                  Rule 12b-1 and may have a  shareholder  services  plan,  which
                  plans,  in the aggregate,  provide for payments of up to 1.00%
                  annually for distribution  and/or  shareholder  services fees.
                  Class B Shares  are  offered  at net  asset  value  without  a
                  front-end  sales  load but with a CDSC,  which is a  declining
                  percentage of the lesser of current net asset value or initial
                  cost.  For Class B shares  purchased on or after June 1, 1995,
                  the CDSC is imposed at rates  ranging  from a maximum of 5% of
                  amounts   redeemed   during  the  first  twelve  month  period
                  following  the month of  purchase  to 1% of  amounts  redeemed
                  during the sixth twelve month  period  following  the month of
                  purchase.

                  The  sub-class of Class B Shares  issued prior to June 1, 1995
                  automatically  convert to Class A Shares seven  calendar years
                  after  purchase  without a sales  load or  exchange  fee.  The
                  sub-class of Class B Shares issued on or after to June 1, 1995
                  automatically  convert to Class A Shares eight years after the
                  month of purchase without a sales load or exchange fee.

                  Class B Shares  may be  exchanged  for the same  sub-class  of
                  Class B Shares of other  Keystone  America  Funds and the same
                  sub-class of Class B Shares of Keystone Liquid Trust.  Class B
                  Shares subject to a CDSC when exchanged will remain subject to
                  the CDSC after the exchange.

                  Keystone Capital Preservation and Income Fund ("CPI")

                  CPI  Class  B  Shares  have  the  same  provisions  and  other
                  characteristics as those described above for Class B Shares of
                  the Keystone America Funds,  except that Class B Shares of CPI
                  (a) are subject to a CDSC, which is a declining  percentage of
                  the lesser of current net asset value or initial cost (for CPI
                  Class B shares purchased on or after June 1, 1995, the CDSC is
                  imposed  at rates  ranging  from a  maximum  of 3% of  amounts
                  redeemed  during the first twelve month period  following  the
                  month of purchase to 1% of amounts redeemed during the fourth
                  twelve   month   period   following   the  month  of  purchase
                  purchased);  and (b) have the  following  special  exchange or
                  conversion  features:  (i) at the  shareholder's  option,  the
                  sub-class  of CPI Class B Shares  issued prior to June 1, 1995
                  may be  exchanged  for CPI  Class A Shares  up to seven  years
                  after purchase and (ii) the sub-class of Class B Shares issued
                  on or after  June 1,  1995  automatically  convert  to Class A
                  Shares eight years after the month of purchase without a sales
                  load or exchange fee.

         3.       Class C Shares

                  Keystone America Funds and Keystone Liquid Trust

                  Class C Shares have a  distribution  plan adopted  pursuant to
                  Rule 12b-1,  and may have a shareholder  services plan,  which
                  plans provide,  in the aggregate,  for payments of up to 1.00%
                  annually for distribution  and/or  shareholder  services fees.
                  Class C Shares are subject to a CDSC, which is a percentage of
                  the  lesser  of  current  net  asset  value  or  initial  cost
                  (currently 1.00% for one year from the date of purchase).

                  Class C Shares  are  offered  at net  asset  value  without  a
                  front-end sales load.

                  Class C Shares  may be  exchanged  for Class C Shares of other
                  Keystone  America  Funds and Keystone  Liquid  Trust.  Class C
                  Shares subject to a CDSC when exchanged will remain subject to
                  the CDSC after the exchange.

         II.      CLASS EXPENSES

                  Each class  bears the  expenses  of its Rule 12b-1 plan and/or
                  shareholder  services plan. There currently are no other class
                  specific expenses.

         III.     EXPENSE ALLOCATION METHODS

                  Daily Distribution Funds

                  All income,  realized and unrealized  capital gains and losses
                  and expenses not assigned to a class will be allocated to each
                  share regardless of class.

                  Non-Daily Distribution Funds

                  All income, realized and unrealized capital gains
                  and losses and expenses not assigned to a class
                  will be  allocated  to each class  based on the  relative  net
                  asset value of each class.
