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

    This  statement is furnished  by the Trustees  of the Conservatively Managed
Portfolio and the Strategy Portfolio (each a Portfolio) of Prudential  FlexiFund
(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        , 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

                                       1
<PAGE>
shareholder  with reference to  routine matters, the  shares represented thereby
may be considered for purposes of determining the existence of a quorum for  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           , 1994 has been fixed as the record date
for the determination of shareholders entitled to notice of, and to vote at, the
Meeting. On  that  date,  the  Fund had  38,012,426.7420  shares  of  beneficial
interest  outstanding  and  entitled  to  vote  in  the  Conservatively  Managed
Portfolio, consisting of 2,744,890.2100 Class A shares and 35,267,536.5320 Class
B shares  and  33,328,178.9720 shares  of  beneficial interest  outstanding  and
entitled to vote in the Strategy Portfolio, consisting of 2,574,976.9730 Class A
shares  and 30,753,201.9990 Class B  shares. Each share will  be entitled to one
vote at the Meeting. It  is expected that the  Notice of Special Meeting,  Proxy
Statement  and form of  Proxy will first  be mailed to  shareholders on or about
March   , 1994.

    Management does not know of any person or group who owned beneficially 5% or
more of the outstanding shares of either class of beneficial interest of  either
Portfolio as of           , 1994.

    The  expense of  solicitation will  be borne  by the  Fund and  will include
reimbursement of brokerage  firms and  others for expenses  in forwarding  proxy
solicitation  material to beneficial owners. The solicitation of proxies will be
largely by mail. The Trustees of  the Fund have authorized management to  retain
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 $55,886 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.

    At a meeting held on February 8,  1994, the Trustees approved a proposal  to
change  the name of the Fund to Prudential Allocation Fund. The name change does
not require, and is not being  submitted for, shareholder approval and will  not
be  implemented until it is reflected in the Fund's Prospectus. The names of the
Portfolios and their investment objectives and policies will not be affected  by
this change.

                              ELECTION OF TRUSTEES
                                (PROPOSAL NO. 1)

    At  the Meeting, seven 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, Donald D. Lennox, Douglas H. McCorkindale, Lawrence
C.  McQuade, Thomas T. Mooney, Richard A. Redeker and Louis A. Weil, III, all of
whom are currently Trustees. Each of the  nominees has consented to be named  in
the  Proxy Statement and to serve as a  Trustee if elected. All of the Trustees,
except for Mr. Redeker,  have previously been  elected by shareholders.  Messrs.
Beach, Lennox, McCorkindale, Mooney and Weil have served as Trustees of the Fund
since March 12, 1987, and Mr. McQuade has served as a Trustee since February 18,
1988. Mr. Redeker has served as a Trustee since November 9, 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. 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 not to hold
annual meetings of shareholders unless such shareholder action is required.

    The Trustees and  officers of  the Fund as  a group  owned beneficially  412
shares  of the Conservatively Managed Portfolio  and 2204 shares of the Strategy
Portfolio of the Fund at              , 1994, representing  less than 1% of  the
outstanding shares of each Portfolio of the Fund.

    The  Fund pays  annual compensation  of $8,500,  plus travel  and incidental
expenses, to each  of the five  Trustees not affiliated  with PMF or  Prudential
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 July  31, 1993, the Fund paid Trustees' fees
of approximately $51,000,  and travel and  incidental expenses of  approximately
$2,774.

    There  were three regular meetings and  three special meetings of the Fund's
Trustees held during the fiscal year ended July 31, 1993. The Trustees presently
have an  Audit  Committee, the  members  of  which are  Messrs.  Beach,  Lennox,
McCorkindale,  Mooney and  Weil, the  Fund's non-interested  Trustees. The Audit
Committee met  twice during  the fiscal  year  ended July  31, 1993.  The  Audit
Committee  makes recommendations to the Trustees  with respect to the engagement
of independent accountants and reviews with the independent

                                       10

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  July 31, 1993. The  Nominating
Committee does not consider nominees recommended by shareholders to fill Trustee
vacancies.

    During  the fiscal year ended July 31,  1993, no Trustee attended fewer than
75% of the aggregate  of the total  number of meetings of  the Trustees and  any
committees thereof of which such Trustee was a member.

                             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 March 1, 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 4, 1993 and was approved by shareholders on February 19, 1988.

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;

                                       12
<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  .65 of  1% of the  average net  assets of each
Portfolio. The fee is computed daily and paid monthly. For the fiscal year ended
July 31, 1993,  PMF received  management fees  of $1,837,757  and $2,362,366  on
behalf  of  the Conservatively  Managed  Portfolio and  the  Strategy Portfolio,
respectively.

    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  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 July 31, 1993.
The Fund believes the most restrictive of such annual limitations is 2 1/2% of a
fund's 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  stock  certificates
representing  shares  of  the  Fund,  (i) the  cost  of  fidelity  and liability
insurance, (j) certain

                                       13
<PAGE>
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 as a  broker or dealer  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
reports, proxy  statements  and  prospectuses  to  shareholders  in  the  amount
necessary   for   distribution   to  the   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 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.

PMF and the Trustees  and in conformity  with the stated  policies of the  Fund,

portfolios, including the purchase, retention and disposition of securities  and
other  investments. PIC is  reimbursed by PMF for  reasonable costs and expenses
incurred by it in  furnishing such services.  The fees paid by  the Fund to  PMF

                                       17

    PIC  has authorized any of its directors,  officers and employees who may be

they  have  been  elected.  Services  furnished  by  PIC  under  the Subadvisory
Agreement may be furnished by any such directors, officers or employees of  PIC.
The Subadvisory Agreement provides that PIC shall not be liable for any error of
judgment  or for  any loss suffered  by the Fund  or PMF in  connection with the
matters to which the Subadvisory Agreement relates, except a loss resulting from
willful misfeasance,  bad  faith  or  gross negligence  on  PIC's  part  in  the
performance  of  its  duties  or  from  its  reckless  disregard  of  duty.  The
Subadvisory Agreement provides that it shall terminate automatically if assigned
or upon termination of  the Management Agreement and  that it may be  terminated

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 shares of the Fund.

    Under  separate Distribution  and Service  Plans (the  Class A  Plan and the
Class B 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
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 or Class B Plan  or
in  any agreement related  to either Plan  (the Rule 12b-1  Trustees), on May 4,
1993. The  Class  A Plan  was  approved by  the  Class A  shareholders  of  each
Portfolio  on December 19,  1990. The Class B  Plan was approved  by the Class B
shareholders of each Portfolio on January 11, 1990.

                                       19
<PAGE>
    The plans are proposed to be amended as  set forth in Proposals No. 3 and  4
below.

    CLASS  A PLAN.   Under the  Class A Plan,  the Fund reimburses  PMFD for its
distribution-related expenses with respect to  Class A shares of each  Portfolio
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 the Fund will not exceed .25 of 1% of
the average daily net  assets of the  Class A shares of  each Portfolio for  the
fiscal year ending July 31, 1994.

    For  the fiscal year ended July 31,  1993, PMFD received payments of $30,784
for the Conservatively Managed Portfolio and $48,431 for the Strategy  Portfolio
under the Class A Plan representing .20 of 1% of the average daily net assets of
the Class A shares of each Portfolio as reimbursement of expenses related to the
distribution of Class A shares. These amounts were primarily expended on account
servicing  fees to  Prudential Securities  and Pruco  Securities Corporation, an
affiliated broker-dealer (Prusec), for payments to financial advisers and  other
salespersons  who sell Class A shares. For  the fiscal year ended July 31, 1993,
PMFD also received $405,000 and $338,000 on behalf of the Conservatively Managed
Portfolio and Strategy Portfolio, respectively, in initial sales charges.

    CLASS B  PLAN.   Under the  Class  B Plan,  the Fund  reimburses  Prudential
Securities  for its distribution-related expenses with respect to Class B shares
of each Portfolio at an annual rate of up to .75 of 1% of the average daily  net
assets  of the Class B shares. The Class B Plan also provides for the payment of
a service fee to Prudential Securities at a rate not to exceed .25 of 1% of  the
average  daily net  assets of  Class B shares  of each  Portfolio. The aggregate
distribution fee for Class B shares (asset-based sales charge plus service  fee)
will not exceed 1% of average daily net assets under the Class B Plan.

    For  the fiscal year  ended July 31,  1993, it is  estimated that Prudential
Securities spent approximately the following amounts on behalf of the Portfolios
of the Fund:

*     Including lease, utility and sales promotional expenses.
</TABLE>

    The term  "overhead costs"  represents  (a) the  expenses of  operating  the
branch  offices of Prudential Securities and  Prusec in connection with the sale
of Fund shares,  including lease costs,  the salaries and  employee benefits  of
operations  and sales support personnel,  utility costs, communication costs and
the costs of stationery and supplies, (b) the cost 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 sales.

    Prudential  Securities  also receives  the  proceeds of  contingent deferred
sales charges paid  by holders  of Class B  shares upon  certain redemptions  of
Class  B shares.  The amount  of distribution  expenses reimbursable  by Class B
shares of the Fund is  reduced by the amount  of such contingent deferred  sales
charges. For the fiscal year ended July 31, 1993, Prudential Securities received
approximately  $425,000 on  behalf of  the Conservatively  Managed Portfolio and
$736,000 on  behalf of  the Strategic  Portfolio, in  contingent deferred  sales
charges.  As  of  December  31,  1993,  the  aggregate  amount  of  unreimbursed
distribution  expenses  for  the  Fund's   Class  B  shares  was   approximately
$20,079,700 ($11,499,600 for the Conservatively Managed Portfolio and $8,580,100
for the Strategy Portfolio).

    The Class A and Class B Plans continue in effect from year to year, 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
and Class B 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 on not more than 30

                                       21
<PAGE>
days' written  notice to  any other  party to  the Plans.  Neither Plan  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,
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 either the Class A Plan or  the Class B 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 each  Plan, the  Trustees review  at least  quarterly a written
report of the distribution expenses incurred on behalf of the Class A and  Class
B  shares  of the  Portfolios of  the  Fund by  PMFD and  Prudential Securities,
respectively. The report  includes 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 4, 1993.

PORTFOLIO TRANSACTIONS

    The Manager is  responsible for  decisions to  buy and  sell securities  and
options  on securities and futures for each Portfolio of the Fund, the selection
of brokers, 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. Broker-dealers may  receive
negotiated  brokerage  commissions  on  Fund  portfolio  transactions, including
options and 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.

    Equity  securities  traded  in  the over-the-counter  market  and  bonds 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

                                       22
<PAGE>
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  and  U.S.  Government agency
securities may  be  purchased  directly  from  the  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
(or  any affiliate) acts  as principal. Thus,  it will not  deal 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  of the  Fund, the  Manager is
required to give primary consideration to obtaining the most favorable price and
efficient execution.  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 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, dealer or futures commission merchant based on the
quality and quantity  of execution services  provided by the  broker, dealer  or
futures  commission merchant  in the  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. In
addition, the  manager is  authorized  to pay  higher commissions  on  brokerage
transactions  for the Fund to brokers  other than Prudential Securities in order
to  secure  research  and  investment  services  described  above,  subject   to

                                       23
<PAGE>
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
syndicate  of  which  Prudential  Securities  (or  any  affiliate),  during  the
existence of  the syndicate,  is  a principal  underwriter  (as defined  in  the
Investment  Company  Act), except  in  accordance with  rules  of the  SEC. This
limitation, in  the opinion  of  the Fund,  will  not significantly  affect  the
ability of the Portfolios to pursue their investment objectives. However, in the
future  in other circumstances, the Portfolios  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
securities broker or  futures commission  merchant 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  or  futures
commission  merchants  in  connection  with  comparable  transactions  involving
similar securities or futures  being purchased or sold  on an exchange 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  Trustees who  are not  "interested" persons, 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) 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  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 and futures 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.

                        APPROVAL OF A PROPOSAL TO AMEND
                   THE FUND'S DECLARATION OF TRUST TO PERMIT
                   THE IMPLEMENTATION OF A CONVERSION FEATURE
    (FOR CONSIDERATION BY CLASS A AND CLASS B SHAREHOLDERS, VOTING JOINTLY)
                                (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  of each  Portfolio. 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 of each  Portfolio
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  two  classes  of  shares  for  each  Portfolio,
designated  as Class A and  Class B 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 5.25% 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 of each  Portfolio pursuant to  a Rule 12b-1
plan. This fee is currently charged at a rate of .25 of 1% of the average  daily
net  assets of the Class A shares. PMFD has agreed to so limit its fee under the
Class A Plan to .25 of 1% of the average daily net assets of the Class A  shares
of  each Portfolio for the fiscal year ending  July 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 1% of the average daily net
asset value of the Class B shares.

    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
Trustees have approved the offering of a new class of shares for each Portfolio,
to be designated Class C shares,  which will be offered simultaneously with  the
offering  of Class B shares with the proposed conversion feature. Class C shares
will be offered without either an initial or a deferred sales charge but will be

                                       26
<PAGE>
subject to  an annual  distribution and  service fee  not to  exceed 1%  of  the
average  daily net  assets of  the Class  C shares.  If the  proposed conversion
feature for Class B  shares of each  Portfolio is not  approved, Class C  shares
will not be offered.

THE PROPOSED CONVERSION FEATURE

    On March 17, 1993, the Fund's Trustees, including a majority of the Trustees
who  are not  "interested persons"  of the  Fund (as  defined in  the Investment
Company Act), approved an amendment to the Fund's Declaration of Trust to permit
the implementation of a conversion feature for each Portfolio'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 the  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 Portfolio  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.

    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

                                       27
<PAGE>
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, or  47.62%, multiplied by 200  shares, or 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  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.

    Under  current law, no gain or loss  will be recognized by a shareholder for
U.S. income tax  purposes as a  result of a  conversion of Class  B shares  into
Class A shares.

    If  approved by shareholders, the conversion  feature will be subject to the
continuing availability of opinions of counsel (i) that the dividends and  other

                                       28
<PAGE>
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.

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.

                            APPROVAL OF AMENDED AND
                         RESTATED CLASS A DISTRIBUTION
                                AND SERVICE PLAN
   (FOR CONSIDERATION BY CLASS A AND CLASS B SHAREHOLDERS, VOTING SEPARATELY)
                                (PROPOSAL NO. 3)

    On May 4, 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 Fund's Class  A shareholders for approval or disapproval  at
this  Special  Meeting  of  Shareholders.  As  contemplated  by  the  SEC  Order
(previously defined under  Proposal No. 2),  the Proposed Class  A Plan is  also
being  submitted  for  approval  by Class  B  shareholders  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).

                                       29
<PAGE>
    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 on December 19, 1990 and last approved by the  Trustees
on  May 4, 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 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 of each Portfolio (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 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 do not exceed  .30 of 1% per annum of the  average
daily net assets of the Class A shares.

    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 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  A Plan is in effect, the selection and nomination of Trustees who are not
interested persons of the Fund will be  committed to the discretion of the  Rule
12b-1 Trustees.

                                       30
<PAGE>
    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 Fund (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
reimbursed  by the Fund. For each of the  fiscal years ended July 31, 1991, 1992
and 1993, PMFD received payments  of $5,495, $14,207 and $30,784,  respectively,
for  the  Conservatively Managed  Portfolio  and $13,389,  $31,409  and $48,431,
respectively, for  the  Strategy  Portfolio  under the  Existing  Class  A  Plan
representing .20 of 1% of the average daily net assets of the Class A shares for
each   Portfolio  as   reimbursement  of  expenses   incurred  for  Distribution
Activities. Although PMFD agreed  to limit its fees  under the Existing Class  A
Plan to .25 of 1% for the fiscal years ended July 31, 1991, 1992 and 1993, it in
fact  further limited its fee  to .20 of 1% 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

                                       31
<PAGE>
than  .25 of 1% of  the average daily net  assets of the Class  A shares of each
Portfolio for the fiscal year ending  July 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 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 Portfolio, 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 Class A shares and
Class B shares  (as defined in  the Investment Company  Act) of each  Portfolio,

                                       32
<PAGE>
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
Portfolio's  outstanding Class  A shares.  Under the  Investment Company  Act, a
majority of a class' outstanding shares is defined as the lesser of (i) 67% of a
class' outstanding shares represented at a meeting at which more than 50% of the
outstanding shares of the class are  present in person or represented by  proxy,
or  (ii) more than 50%  of a class' outstanding shares.  If the Proposed Class A
Plan is not approved as described above by the Shareholders of a Portfolio,  the
Existing  Class A Plan  will continue in  its present form  with respect to such
Portfolio.

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

                    APPROVAL OF AMENDED AND RESTATED CLASS B
                         DISTRIBUTION AND SERVICE PLAN
                (FOR CONSIDERATION BY CLASS B SHAREHOLDERS ONLY)
                                (PROPOSAL NO. 4)

    On May 4, 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 Fund's Class B shareholders  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 January 11,  1990 and last approved by the  Trustees
on  May 4, 1993 (the Existing Class B  Plan). Shareholders of the Fund's Class B
shares are being asked to approve amendments  to the Existing Class B Plan  that
change    it   from    a   reimbursement    type   plan    to   a   compensation

                                       33
<PAGE>
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 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.

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  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 annual 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  .75
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 the NASD Rules (previously defined under Proposal
No. 3).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 the Fund may not, subject to certain exclusions, exceed 6.25% of total
gross sales of Class B shares.

    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 the Fund.  In addition, all
material amendments thereof must be approved by  vote of 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  Trustees who  are not  interested  persons of  the Fund  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 Fund (as defined in  the

                                       34
<PAGE>
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 a
maximum 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 the Fund or recovered
through contingent deferred sales charges was approximately $11,499,600 for  the
Conservatively Managed Portfolio and $8,580,100 for the Strategy Portfolio.

    For  the  fiscal  years  ended  July 31,  1991,  1992  and  1993, Prudential
Securities received $1,499,059,  $1,893,579 and  $2,673,399, respectively,  from
the  Fund  under  the  Existing  Class B  Plan  for  the  Conservatively Managed
Portfolio, representing 1% of the average daily net assets of the Class B shares
of that Portfolio in each  year, and spent approximately $2,096,700,  $3,414,500
and  $4,574,800, respectively,  for Distribution Activities  for that Portfolio.
For the fiscal years ended July  31, 1991, 1992 and 1993, Prudential  Securities
received  $1,842,184,  $2,675,247 and  $3,392,254,  respectively, from  the Fund
under the Existing Class B Plan  for the Strategy Portfolio, representing 1%  of
the  average daily net  assets of the Class  B shares of  that Portfolio in each
year,  and   spent   approximately  $3,037,900,   $4,841,800   and   $3,861,500,
respectively,  for Distribution Activities for that Portfolio. Since the maximum
annual fee under the

                                       35
<PAGE>
Existing Class B Plan is the same as under the Proposed Class B Plan, Prudential
Securities would have received the same annual fee for each Portfolio under  the
Proposed  Class B Plan as it did under  the Existing Class B Plan for the fiscal
years ended July 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 Fund's Class B shares  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  Portfolios 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 Portfolio, and  comparative data with respect to  distribution
arrangements  adopted by other investment companies. Based upon such review, the
Board of 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.

                                       36
<PAGE>
    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 Fund's
outstanding Class  B shares  of  each Portfolio  as  defined in  the  Investment
Company Act and as described under Proposal No. 3 above. If the Proposed Class B
Plan  is not approved,  the Existing Class  B Plan will  continue in its present
form.

    THE TRUSTEES RECOMMEND THAT YOU VOTE "FOR" THIS PROPOSAL NO. 4.

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

    On May 4, 1993,  at the request  of the Fund's  Manager and Subadviser,  the
Trustees  considered  and recommend  for shareholder  approval revision  of each
Portfolio's  fundamental   investment   restrictions  regarding   illiquid   and
restricted securities. The current restrictions are overly confining in light of
the  development of an active market  in those securities that, although subject
to restrictions on resale, are transferable under Rule 144A under the Securities
Act of 1933, as amended (the Securities Act). The Trustees recommend elimination
of each Portfolio's  Investment Restrictions  Nos. 12  and 16,  which limit  the
purchase  of any  security that  is restricted  as to  disposition under federal
securities laws or  contractually and repurchase  agreements with maturities  of
more than seven days.

    Investment Restriction No. 12, which is proposed to be eliminated, currently
provides that each Portfolio may not:
        Purchase  any  security  restricted  as  to  disposition  under  federal
    securities laws if such purchase would result  in more than 5% of the  value
    of the total assets of the Portfolio being invested in such securities.

    Investment Restriction No. 16, which is proposed to be eliminated, currently
provides that each Portfolio may not:
        Purchase   securities  for   which  there   are  legal   or  contractual
    restrictions on resale or invest in securities for which there is no readily
    available

                                       37
<PAGE>
    market, including repurchase agreements having maturities of more than seven
    days, if more than 10% of the Portfolio's total assets would be invested  in
    such securities.

    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  change  would  expand   each
Portfolio's  ability to invest  in securities which  have restrictions on resale
but have a readily available  institutional market, such as securities  eligible
for  resale  pursuant  to  Rule  144A under  the  Securities  Act.  The proposed
non-fundamental policy would provide as follows:

        Each Portfolio may invest  up to 10% of  its net assets in  illiquid
    securities  including  repurchase agreements  which  have a  maturity of
    longer  than   seven  days,   securities  with   legal  or   contractual
    restrictions  on resale (restricted securities)  and securities that are
    not  readily  marketable.  Restricted  securities  eligible  for  resale
    pursuant  to Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the
    Securities Act), 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 either Portfolio's liquidity because it excludes from illiquid securities
only those Rule 144A securities for which there is a readily available market.

    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  Portfolios'  present   restrictions  on  illiquid
investments overly broad and unnecessarily restrictive in the view of the Fund's
Manager. In particular, the  SEC adopted Rule 144A  in April 1990, which  allows
for  a broader institutional trading market  for securities otherwise subject to
restrictions on resale to the general public. SEC interpretations give directors
of registered investment

                                       38
<PAGE>
companies the discretion  to designate  restricted securities as  liquid if  the
presence  of a  readily available  market can be  demonstrated and  if a current
market value can be ascertained. In  adopting Rule 144A, the SEC recognized  the
increased  size  and liquidity  of  the institutional  markets  for unregistered
securities  and  the  importance  of  institutional  investors  in  the  capital
formation  process.  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.

    The staff of the  SEC has also taken  the position that purchased  over-the-
counter  options and  the assets  used as  "cover" for  written over-the-counter
options are illiquid securities unless a fund and the counterparty have provided
for the fund at its option  to unwind the over-the-counter option. The  exercise
of  such an option ordinarily  would involve the payment by  a fund of an amount
designed to reflect the counterparty's economic loss from an early  termination,
but does allow the fund to treat the assets used as "cover" as "liquid."

    The  proposed  change would  expand each  Portfolio's  ability to  invest in
securities which  are eligible  for  resale pursuant  to  Rule 144A.  Rule  144A
securities  generally  have a  readily available  institutional market,  and the
proposed change  would expand  to  10% the  amount of  net  assets that  may  be
invested  in  illiquid  assets.  The  markets  for  certain  equity  securities,
corporate  bonds  and   notes  are  almost   exclusively  institutional.   These
institutional investors depend on an efficient institutional market in which the
unregistered  security  can be  readily  resold. In  the  opinion of  the Fund's
Manager, the fact that there are restrictions on resale to the general public is
therefore not necessarily indicative  of the liquidity  of such investments.  If
designated  as liquid (under  the supervision of the  Trustees), these Rule 144A
securities would be exempt from the 10% limitation.

    In order to take advantage of the market for Rule 144A securities, including
Rule 144A securities, and the increasingly liquid institutional trading markets,
the Manager recommends that the Portfolios eliminate their fundamental  policies
regarding  illiquid and restricted securities so  that Rule 144A securities that
are  nonetheless  liquid  may  be  purchased  without  regard  to  the   current
limitations.   By  making  the  Portfolios'   policies  on  illiquid  securities
non-fundamental, the  Portfolios  will  be  able  to  respond  more  quickly  to
regulatory  and  market  developments because  a  shareholder vote  will  not be
required to define  what types  of securities should  be deemed  illiquid or  to
change  the applicable  permissible percentage  limitation. If  this proposal is
approved by shareholders, the Manager and the Subadviser, under the  supervision
of the Trustees, will

                                       39
<PAGE>
monitor  the  liquidity of  specific  types of  securities  and, based  on their
recommendations, the  Trustees will  from time  to time  determine whether  such
securities  should be  deemed to  be liquid  in light  of legal,  regulatory and
market developments.

    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).

    The Trustees  believe  that  adoption of  Proposal  No.  5 is  in  the  best
interests of each Portfolio and its shareholders.

REQUIRED VOTE

    Amendment of the Portfolios' investment restrictions to eliminate Investment
Restrictions  Nos.  12  and  16  requires the  approval  of  a  majority  of the
outstanding voting securities  of each Portfolio.  Under the Investment  Company
Act, a majority of a Portfolio's outstanding securities is defined as the lesser
of  (i) 67% of  the Portfolio's outstanding  shares represented at  a meeting at
which more than 50% of the Portfolio's outstanding shares are present in  person
or  represented by proxy, or  (ii) more than 50%  of the Portfolio's outstanding
shares. In the event shareholders do not approve the proposed modification of  a
Portfolio's   investment   policies,  the   current  limitations   would  remain
fundamental policies  which could  not  be changed  without  the approval  of  a
majority of the outstanding voting securities of the Portfolio.

    THE TRUSTEES RECOMMEND THAT YOU VOTE "FOR" THIS PROPOSAL NO. 5.

           APPROVAL OF A MODIFICATION OF EACH PORTFOLIO'S INVESTMENT
          RESTRICTION LIMITING THE PORTFOLIO'S ABILITY TO INVEST IN A
               SECURITY IF THE PORTFOLIO WOULD HOLD MORE THAN TEN
                PERCENT OF ANY CLASS OF SECURITIES OF AN ISSUER
                                (PROPOSAL NO. 6)

    On  May 4, 1993,  at the request  of the Fund's  Manager and Subadviser, the
Trustees considered  and  recommend  for shareholder  approval  modification  of
Investment  Restriction  No. 5  to delete  the  restriction that  prohibits each
Portfolio from purchasing a security if  the Portfolio would hold more than  ten
percent of any class of securities of an issuer.

    Each  Portfolio currently may not purchase a security if the Portfolio would
then hold more  than 10% of  any class of  securities of an  issuer. Under  this
restriction,  all common stock issues of  an issuer, all preferred stock issues,
and all  debt issues  are each  taken as  a separate  single class.  The  Fund's
Subadviser believes the restriction is confining and has requested its deletion.
This  restriction is not required under federal securities laws. If the proposal
is approved,  and  a state  securities  commission requires  inclusion  of  this
limitation,  each Portfolio would  continue to comply with  the restriction as a
non-fundamental operating policy so  long as the Portfolio  sells its shares  in
that state.

    Investment Restriction No. 5 provides that each Portfolio may not:

        Purchase  any security if as a result the Portfolio would then hold more
        than 10% of  any class  of securities of  an issuer  (taking all  common
        stock  issues of an issuer as a single class, all preferred stock issues
        as a single class and  all debt issues as a  single class) or more  than
        10% of the outstanding voting securities of an issuer.

        The Trustees are proposing that Investment Restriction No. 5 be modified
    to read as follows:

        Each Portfolio may not:

        Purchase  any security if as a result the Portfolio would then hold more
        than 10% of the outstanding voting securities of an issuer.

    Currently, each Portfolio  may not  hold more  than 10%  of the  outstanding
voting  securities of  an issuer pursuant  to Section 5(b)(1)  of the Investment
Company Act and state securities laws. This restriction would remain in effect.

    The Trustees  believe  that  adoption of  Proposal  No.  6 is  in  the  best
interests of each Portfolio and its shareholders.

                                       41
<PAGE>
REQUIRED VOTE

    Adoption  of  Proposal No.  6 requires  the  approval of  a majority  of the
outstanding voting securities of  each Portfolio, as  defined by the  Investment
Company  Act  and described  under Proposal  No.  5. If  the proposed  change in
investment policy  is not  approved  by the  shareholders  of a  Portfolio,  the
current limitations would remain a fundamental policy which could not be changed
without  the approval of a majority of  the outstanding voting securities of the
Portfolio.

    THE TRUSTEES RECOMMEND THAT YOU VOTE "FOR" THIS PROPOSAL NO. 6.

             APPROVAL OF ELIMINATION OF EACH PORTFOLIO'S INVESTMENT
            RESTRICTION LIMITING INVESTMENT IN THE SECURITIES OF ANY
             ISSUER IN WHICH THE OFFICERS AND TRUSTEES OF THE FUND
            OR THE OFFICERS AND DIRECTORS OF ITS INVESTMENT ADVISER
                       OWN MORE THAN A SPECIFIED INTEREST
                                (PROPOSAL NO. 7)

    On May  4,  1993,  at  the  request of  the  Fund's  Manager,  the  Trustees
considered   and  recommend   for  shareholder  approval   elimination  of  each
Portfolio's Investment Restriction No. 7, which provides that each Portfolio may
not:

        Invest in securities of any issuer if, to the knowledge of the Fund, any
    officer or Trustee of the Fund or the Fund's Manager or Subadviser owns more
    than 1/2  of 1%  of the  outstanding  securities of  such issuer,  and  such
    officers  and Trustees who own more than 1/2 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
Portfolios' investing in companies in which officers and Trustees of the Fund or
officers and directors of the Manager own more than 1/2 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 Portfolios'  shares in Ohio. If  the
proposal  is  approved,  each  Portfolio  would  continue  to  comply  with  the
restriction as a non-fundamental operating policy so long as the Portfolio sells
its shares in Ohio. However,  if Ohio were to  eliminate the requirement or  the
Portfolios  stopped offering their  shares for sale in  Ohio, the Trustees could
eliminate the operating  policy without the  necessity of shareholder  approval.
The  Portfolios do not currently  intend to stop offering  their shares in Ohio,
nor

                                       42
<PAGE>
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. 7 is in the best interests of
each Portfolio and its shareholders.

REQUIRED VOTE

    Amendment of the  Portfolios' investment restrictions  to delete  Investment
Restriction  No.  7 requires  the  approval of  a  majority of  each Portfolio's
outstanding voting securities, as defined in  the Investment Company Act and  as
described  under Proposal No. 5. If the  proposed change in investment policy is
not approved by the shareholders of  a Portfolio, the current limitations  would
remain a fundamental policy which could not be changed without the approval of a
majority of the outstanding voting securities of the Portfolio.

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

                 APPROVAL OF A MODIFICATION OF THE PORTFOLIOS'
                INVESTMENT RESTRICTIONS TO PERMIT EACH PORTFOLIO
                 TO ENTER INTO INTEREST RATE SWAP TRANSACTIONS
                                (PROPOSAL NO. 8)

    On  February 8, 1994, at the request  of the Fund's Subadviser, the Trustees
considered  and  recommend   for  shareholder  approval   modification  of   the
Portfolios'  investment  restrictions to  permit  each Portfolio  to  enter into
interest rate swap transactions with  respect to up to  5% of its total  assets.
Interest  rate swaps  would be  used to  hedge the  value of  existing portfolio
assets or assets a Portfolio intends to acquire. Interest rate swaps involve the
exchange by a Portfolio  with another party of  their respective commitments  to
pay  or  receive  interest (E.G.,  an  exchange  of floating  rate  payments for
fixed-rate  payments).  Each  Portfolio  would  enter  into  these  transactions
primarily  to preserve a return or spread  on a particular investment or portion
of its portfolio or to protect against  any increase in the price of  securities
it  anticipates purchasing  at a later  date. Each Portfolio  would use interest
rate swaps for hedging purposes and not as a speculative investment.

    The use  of interest  rate  swaps is  a  highly speculative  activity  which
involves  investment techniques and  risks different from  those associated with
ordinary portfolio securities transactions. If the Manager were incorrect in its
forecast of  market values,  interest rates  and other  applicable factors,  the
investment performance of the Fund would diminish compared to what it would have
been  if this investment technique  were never used. Interest  rate swaps do not
involve the  delivery of  securities or  other underlying  assets or  principal.
Accordingly,  the risk of loss with respect to interest rate swaps is limited to
the net amount of interest payments that a Portfolio is contractually  obligated
to  make. If the  other party to  an interest rate  swap defaults, a Portfolio's
risk of loss consists of

                                       43
<PAGE>
the net amount of interest payments that the Portfolio is contractually entitled
to  receive.  Since  interest  rate  swaps  are  individually  negotiated,  each
Portfolio  expects to  achieve an acceptable  degree of  correlation between its
rights to  receive interest  on  its portfolio  securities  and its  rights  and
obligations to receive and pay interest pursuant to interest rate swaps.

    The   use  of  interest  rate  swaps  would  require  modification  of  each
Portfolio's Investment Restriction No. 3 to clarify that collateral arrangements
with respect to interest rate  swap transactions are not  deemed to be a  senior
security or a borrowing.

    Investment  Restriction No.  3 is proposed  to be amended  as follows (added
language underlined, deleted language in brackets):

    Each Portfolio may not:

    3.  Issue senior securities, borrow money or pledge its assets, except  that
the  Portfolio may borrow up to 20% of the value of its total assets (calculated
when the loan is made) for temporary, extraordinary or emergency purposes or for
the clearance of transactions. The Portfolio may  pledge up to 20% of the  value
of its total assets to secure such borrowings. For purposes of this restriction,
the  preference as to shares  of a Portfolio in  liquidation and as to dividends
over all  other Portfolios  of  the Fund  with  respect to  assets  specifically
allocated to that Portfolio, the purchase or sale of securities on a when-issued
or  delayed delivery  basis, the purchase  of forward  foreign currency exchange
contracts and collateral arrangements relating thereto, the purchase and sale of
options, financial futures contracts, options  on such contracts and  collateral
arrangements  with  respect  thereto  and with  respect  to  interest  rate swap
transactions involving up to 5% of the Portfolio's total assets and  obligations
of  the Fund to Trustees pursuant  to deferred compensation arrangements are not
deemed to be the issuance of a senior security or a pledge of assets.

    The Trustees  believe  that  adoption of  Proposal  No.  8 is  in  the  best
interests of the Fund and its shareholders.

REQUIRED VOTE

    Adoption  of  Proposal No.  8 requires  the  approval of  a majority  of the
outstanding voting securities of  each Portfolio, as  defined by the  Investment
Company  Act  and described  under Proposal  No.  5. If  the proposed  change in
investment policy  is not  approved  by the  shareholders  of a  Portfolio,  the
current limitations would remain a fundamental policy which could not be changed
without  the approval of a majority of  the outstanding voting securities of the
Portfolio.

    THE TRUSTEES RECOMMEND THAT YOU VOTE "FOR" THIS PROPOSAL NO. 8.

                    RATIFICATION OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS
                                (PROPOSAL NO. 9)

    The Trustees of the Fund, including Trustees who are not interested  persons
of  the Fund, have selected Deloitte & Touche as independent accountants for the
Fund for the fiscal year ending July 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
independent  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. 9.

                                 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
interests of the Fund.

                             SHAREHOLDER PROPOSALS

    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 By-laws.
A shareholder proposal 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. 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.

Dated: March  , 1994

    SHAREHOLDERS WHO DO NOT EXPECT TO BE PRESENT AT THE MEETING AND WHO WISH  TO
HAVE  THEIR SHARES VOTED ARE  REQUESTED TO DATE AND  SIGN THE ENCLOSED PROXY AND
RETURN IT IN  THE ENCLOSED ENVELOPE.  NO POSTAGE  IS REQUIRED IF  MAILED IN  THE

            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
and is due on demand.

    The  caption "Due to  affiliates" includes $18,241,795  at December 31, 1993
for  reimbursement   of   employee   compensation  and   benefits,   and   other
administrative  and operating  expenses. This amount  is noninterest-bearing and
payable on demand.

    The Company  has entered  into subadvisory  agreements with  The  Prudential
Investment  Corporation ("PIC"), a wholly-owned  subsidiary of Prudential. Under
these agreements, PIC  furnishes investment advisory  services to  substantially
all  the funds for which the Company acts as Manager. At December 31, 1993 there
were unpaid fees  due to PIC  of $23,926,277,  included in the  caption "Due  to
affiliates."

    Distribution  expenses include  commissions and account  servicing fees paid
to, or on account of,  financial advisors of Prudential Securities  Incorporated
("Prudential   Securities")   and  Pruco   Securities   Corporation  ("PruSec"),
affiliated broker-dealers and indirect wholly-owned subsidiaries of  Prudential,
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
December  31,  1993 there  were  unpaid distribution  expenses  of approximately
$6,626,000, included in the caption "Due to affiliates."

5.  CAPITAL
    PMFD is subject  to the SEC  Uniform Net Capital  Rule (Rule 15c3-1),  which
requires  the maintenance of minimum net capital  and requires that the ratio of
aggregate indebtedness to net capital, both  as defined, shall not exceed 15  to
1.  At  December  31,  1993,  PMFD had  net  capital  of  $2,308,981,  which was
$1,859,405 in excess of its required net  capital of $449,576. PMFD had a  ratio
of aggregate indebtedness to net capital of 2.9 to 1.

6.  COMMITMENTS
    The Company leases office space under operating leases expiring in 2003. The
leases  are  subject to  escalation  based upon  certain  costs incurred  by the
lessor. Future minimum rentals, as of  December 31, 1993, under the leases,  are
as follows:

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

                                      A-4
<PAGE>
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.

To the Stockholders and Board of Directors of
Prudential Mutual Fund Management, Inc.:

    We  have  audited  the  accompanying  consolidated  statement  of  financial
condition of  Prudential Mutual  Fund Management,  Inc. and  subsidiaries as  of
December  31, 1993. This consolidated  financial statement is the responsibility
of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on this
consolidated financial statement based on our audit.

    We conducted  our  audit  in accordance  with  generally  accepted  auditing
standards.  Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statement is  free
of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence
supporting  the  amounts  and  disclosures  in  the  consolidated  statement  of
financial condition. An audit also includes assessing the accounting  principles
used  and significant  estimates made by  management, as well  as evaluating the
overall financial statement presentation. We  believe that our audit provides  a
reasonable basis for our opinion.

    In  our opinion, such consolidated statement of financial condition presents
fairly, in all material  respects, the financial  position of Prudential  Mutual
Fund  Management, Inc. and subsidiaries at  December 31, 1993 in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles.

                              PRUDENTIAL FLEXIFUND
                FORM OF AMENDMENT TO CERTIFICATE OF DESIGNATION

    (a)  The following five  new paragraphs, numbered 3  through 7, are inserted
immediately after  paragraph 2  of the  Amended and  Restated Establishment  and
Designation  of Series  of Shares,  dated November 16,  1990 and  filed with the
Secretary of State  of The Commonwealth  of Massachusetts on  November 27,  1990
(the "Certificate of Designation"), reading as follows:

        3.   The shares of  beneficial interest of each  series of the Trust are
    classified into  three  classes,  designated  "Class  A  Shares,"  "Class  B
    Shares,"  and "Class C  Shares." An unlimited  number of each  such class of
    each such series may  be issued. All  Class A Shares and  Class B Shares  of
    each  such series outstanding  on the date on  which the amendments provided
    for herein become effective shall be and  continue to be Class A Shares  and
    Class B Shares, respectively, of such series.

        4.   The holders of Class A Shares, Class B Shares and Class C Shares of
    each series having the same shall be considered Shareholders of such series,
    and shall have the relative rights  and preferences set forth herein and  in
    the  Declaration of Trust with  respect to Shares of  such series, and shall
    also be  considered  Shareholders  of  the  Trust  for  all  other  purposes
    (including,  without  limitation,  for  purposes  of  receiving  reports and
    notices and the right to vote) and, for matters reserved to the Shareholders
    of one or more other classes or series by the Declaration of Trust or by any
    instrument establishing and designating a particular class or series, or  as
    required  by  the  Investment  Company  Act of  1940  and/or  the  rules and
    regulations  of   the   Securities  and   Exchange   Commission   thereunder
    (collectively,  as from  time to  time in effect,  the "1940  Act") or other
    applicable laws.

        5.  The Class A Shares, Class B Shares and Class C Shares of each series
    shall represent an equal proportionate interest  in the share of such  class
    in the Trust Property belonging to that series, adjusted for any liabilities
    specifically  allocable to the Shares  of that class, and  each Share of any
    such class  shall have  identical voting,  dividend, liquidation  and  other
    rights  and the same terms and  conditions, except that the expenses related
    directly or indirectly to the distribution of the Shares of a class, and any
    service fees to which such class is subject (as determined by the Trustees),

                                      B-1
<PAGE>
    shall  be  borne  solely  by  such   class,  and  such  expenses  shall   be
    appropriately  reflected in  the determination  of net  asset value  and the
    dividend, distribution and liquidation rights of such class.

        6.  (a) Class A Shares of each  series shall be subject to (i) a  front-

                                  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  FlexiFund  (the  Fund)  and by
Prudential  Mutual  Fund  Distributors,   Inc.,  the  Fund's  distributor   (the
Distributor).

    The  Fund  has  entered  into  a  distribution  agreement  (the 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 Distribution
Agreement, the Distributor will be  entitled to receive payments from  investors
of front-end sales charges with respect to the sale of 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 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.

                                    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.

        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.

                                  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  FlexiFund  (the  Fund)  and by
Prudential  Securities   Incorporated   (Prudential  Securities),   the   Fund's
distributor (the Distributor).

    The  Fund  has  entered  into  a  distribution  agreement  (the 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 Distribution
Agreement, the Distributor will be  entitled to receive payments from  investors
of  contingent deferred  sales charges with  respect to  certain repurchases and
redemptions of 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.
