Brothers"), the Institutional Series Funds' distributor, merged with and into
Smith Barney Holdings Inc., a subsidiary of Travelers Group Inc. ("Travelers"),

SBAM and SBAM AP, with regard to certain of the Funds; and (iii) the
Distribution Agreements with Salomon Brothers, which, if so interpreted, would
have resulted in the termination of such contracts and agreements. Accordingly,
the Board approved new management contracts, subadvisory agreements and
distribution agreements for the Funds identical in all material respects to the
existing contracts and agreements, which became effective on November 28, 1997.
The new management and subadvisory agreements will be presented to stockholders
