Item 27. Indemnification
- ------- ---------------
Reference is made to Article EIGHT of the Registrant's Agreement and
Declaration of Trust previously filed as Exhibit 1 to Post-Effective
Amendment No. 17 to the Registration Statement on Form N- 1A on
November 1, 1995. The application of these provisions is limited by
Article 10 of the Registrant's By-Laws previously filed as Exhibit 2
to Post-Effective Amendment No. 17 to the Registration Statement on
Form N-1A on November 1, 1995 and by the following undertaking set
forth in the rules promulgated by the Securities and Exchange
Commission: Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under
the Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to trustees, officers and
controlling persons of the registrant pursuant to the foregoing
provisions, or otherwise, the registrant has been advised that in the
opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification
is against public policy as expressed in such Act and is, therefore,
unenforceable.
In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities
(other than the payment by the registrant of expenses incurred or paid
by a trustee, officer or controlling person of the registrant in the
successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by
such trustee, officer or controlling person in connection with the
securities being registered, the registrant will, unless in the
opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling
precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question
whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as
expressed in such Act and will be governed by the final adjudication
of such issue.
Reference is made to the Distribution Agreement filed as Exhibit
(6)(a) of Post-Effective Amendment No. 17 to the Registration
Statement on Form N-1A, filed on November 1, 1995.

(18) Rule 18f-3 Plan, as revised...............................
<PAGE>
PREMIER STRATEGIC GROWTH FUND
RULE 18F-3 PLAN
Rule 18f-3 under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the
"1940 Act"), requires that the Board of an investment company desiring to offer
multiple classes pursuant to said Rule adopt a plan setting forth the separate
arrangement and expense allocation of each class, and any related conversion
features or exchange privileges.
The Board, including a majority of the non-interested Board members,
of Premier Strategic Growth Fund (the "Fund") which desires to offer multiple
classes has determined that the following plan is in the best interests of each
class individually and the Fund as a whole:
1. CLASS DESIGNATION: Fund shares shall be divided into Class A, Class
B, Class C and Class R.
2. DIFFERENCES IN SERVICES: The services offered to shareholders of
each Class shall be substantially the same, except that Right of Accumulation,
Letter of Intent and Reinvestment Privilege shall be available only to holders
of Class A shares.

SCHEDULE B
<PAGE>
CONTINGENT DEFERRED SALES CHARGE--CLASS B SHARES--A CDSC payable to the Fund's
Distributor shall be imposed on any redemption of Class B shares which reduces
the current net asset value of such Class B shares to an amount which is lower
than the dollar amount of all payments by the redeeming shareholder for the
purchase of Class B shares of the Fund held by such shareholder at the time of
redemption. No CDSC shall be imposed to the extent that the net asset value of
the Class B shares redeemed does not exceed (i) the current net asset value of
Class B shares acquired through reinvestment of dividends or capital gain
distributions, plus (ii) increases in the net asset value of the shareholder's
Class B shares above the dollar amount of all payments for the purchase of Class
B shares of the Fund held by such shareholder at the time of redemption.
If the aggregate value of the Class B shares redeemed has
declined below their original cost as a result of the Fund's performance, a CDSC
may be applied to the then-current net asset value rather than the purchase
price.
In circumstances where the CDSC is imposed, the amount of the
charge shall depend on the number of years from the time the shareholder
purchased the Class B shares until the time of redemption of such shares. Solely
for purposes of determining the number of years from the time of any payment for
the purchase of Class B shares, all payments during a month shall be aggregated
and deemed to have been made on the first day of the month. The following table
sets forth the rates of the CDSC:
CDSC as a % of
YEAR SINCE Amount Invested
PURCHASE PAYMENT or Redemption
WAS MADE PROCEEDS
First................................................ 4.00
Second............................................... 4.00
Third................................................ 3.00
Fourth............................................... 3.00
Fifth................................................ 2.00
Sixth................................................ 1.00
In determining whether a CDSC is applicable to a redemption,
the calculation shall be made in a manner that results in the lowest possible
rate. Therefore, it shall be assumed that the redemption is made first of
amounts representing shares acquired pursuant to the reinvestment of dividends
and distributions; then of amounts representing the increase in net asset value
of Class B shares above the total amount of payments for the purchase of Class B
shares made during the preceding six years; then of amounts representing the
cost of shares purchased six years prior to the redemption; and finally, of
amounts representing the cost of shares held for the longest period of time
within the applicable six-year period.
<PAGE>
WAIVER OF CDSC--The CDSC shall be waived in connection with (a) redemptions made
within one year after the death or disability, as defined in Section 72(m)(7) of
the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"), of the shareholder,
(b) redemptions by employees participating in qualified or non-qualified
employee benefit plans or other programs where (i) the employers or affiliated
employers maintaining such plans or programs have a minimum of 250 employees
eligible for participation in such plans or programs, or (ii) such plan's or
program's aggregate investment in the Dreyfus Family of Funds or certain other
products made available by the Fund's Distributor exceeds one million dollars,
(c) redemptions as a result of a combination of any investment company with the
Fund by merger, acquisition of assets or otherwise, and (d) a distribution
following retirement under a tax-deferred retirement plan or upon attaining age
70-1/2 in the case of an IRA or Keogh plan or custodial account pursuant to
Section 403(b) of the Code. Any Fund shares subject to a CDSC which were
purchased prior to the termination of such waiver shall have the CDSC waived as
provided in the Fund's prospectus at the time of the purchase of such shares.
AMOUNT OF DISTRIBUTION PLAN FEES--CLASS B SHARES--.75 of 1% of the value of the
average daily net assets of Class B.
<PAGE>
SCHEDULE C
CONTINGENT DEFERRED SALES CHARGE--CLASS C SHARES--A CDSC of 1% payable to the
Fund's Distributor shall be imposed on any redemption of Class C shares within
one year of the date of purchase. The basis for calculating the payment of any
such CDSC shall be the method used in calculating the CDSC for Class B shares.
In addition, the provisions for waiving the CDSC shall be those set forth for
Class B shares.
AMOUNT OF DISTRIBUTION PLAN FEES--CLASS C SHARES--.75 of 1% of the value of the
average daily net assets of Class C.
<PAGE>
SCHEDULE D
CONVERSION OF CLASS B SHARES--Approximately six years after the date of
purchase, Class B shares automatically shall convert to Class A shares, based on
the relative net asset values for shares of each such Class, and shall no longer
be subject to the distribution fee. At that time, Class B shares that have been
acquired through the reinvestment of dividends and distributions ("Dividend
Shares") shall be converted in the proportion that a shareholder's Class B
shares (other than Dividend Shares) converting to Class A shares bears to the
total Class B shares then held by the shareholder which were not acquired
through the reinvestment of dividends and distributions.
