(bullet) The following replaces the first two paragraphs in the section entitled
"The Investment Advisory Contract" on page 15 of the Statement and on
page 17, the last two paragraphs of that section are deleted:
INVESTMENT ADVISORY AGREEMENTS
The Company, on behalf of each Fund, has entered into investment advisory
agreements (Advisory Agreements) appointing ALIAC as the Investment Adviser of
each Fund. These Advisory Agreements were adopted by the Board of Directors in
February 1996 and approved by the shareholders in July 1996. Each Advisory
Agreement is effective through December 31, 1997. The Advisory Agreements will
remain in effect thereafter if approved at least annually by a majority of the
Directors, including a majority of the Directors who are not "interested
persons" of the Fund, at a meeting, called for that purpose, and held in person.
Each Advisory Agreement may be terminated without penalty at any time by the
Directors or by a majority vote of the outstanding voting securities of that
Fund. They may be terminated on sixty days' written notice by ALIAC. The
Advisory Agreements terminate automatically in the event of assignment. The
Advisory Agreements replace investment advisory agreements with ALIAC that were
approved by shareholders in April 1994. Under the Advisory Agreements and
subject to the direction of the Board of Directors of the Company, ALIAC has
responsibility for supervising all aspects of the operations of each Fund
including the selection, purchase and sale of securities on behalf of each Fund,
the calculation of net asset values and the preparation of financial and other
reports as requested by the Board. Under the Advisory Agreements, ALIAC is given
the right to delegate any or all of its obligations to a subadviser.
The Advisory Agreements provide that ALIAC is responsible for payment of all
costs of its personnel, its overhead and of its employees who also serve as
officers or Directors of the Company and each Fund is responsible for payment of
all other of its costs.
(bullet) The following replaces the section entitled "Sub-Advisory Agreements"
on pages 17 and 18 of the Statement:
SUBADVISORY AGREEMENTS
ALIAC and the Company, on behalf of each Fund, except for Asian Growth Fund,
have entered into subadvisory agreements ("Subadvisory Agreements") with Aeltus
Investment Management, Inc. (Aeltus) effective August 1, 1996. These Subadvisory
Agreements were adopted by the Board of Directors in February 1996 and approved
by the shareholders in July 1996. Each Subadvisory Agreement will be effective
through December 31, 1997. The Subadvisory Agreements will remain in effect
thereafter if approved at least annually by a majority of the Directors,
including a majority of the Directors who are not "interested persons" of the
Company, at a meeting, called for that purpose, and held in person. The
Subadvisory Agreements may be terminated without penalty at any time by the
Directors or by a majority of the outstanding voting securities of the Fund or
they may be terminated on sixty days' written notice by the Adviser, the Company
or the Subadviser. The Subadvisory Agreements terminate automatically in the
event of their assignment.
For Aetna Small Company Fund and Aetna Growth Fund, the Subadvisory Agreements
replace subadvisory agreements with Aeltus that had been approved by
shareholders in 1994. Those agreements were substantially the same as the new
agreements. Under both the old and the new Subadvisory Agreements, Aeltus is
responsible for managing the assets of each Fund in accordance with its
investment objectives and policies, subject to the supervision of ALIAC, the
Company and the Directors, and for preparing and providing accounting and
financial information as requested by the Adviser and the Directors. The
Subadviser pays the salaries, employment benefits and other related costs of its
personnel.
