Aetna Series Fund, Inc.
Exhibit 77I
Pursuant to Article Seventh of the Articles of Incorporation for the Aetna
Series Fund Inc., a Maryland Corporation (the "Corporation") dated June 17,
1991, as amended (the "Articles of Incorporation") the Directors designated
and classified 200 million shares of the Corporation into a new series called
Aetna Index Plus Fund (the "Fund") distinct from shares of the Corporation
previously issued. The Fund has the following special rights.
On each matter submitted to a vote of the shareholders, each holder of a
share shall be entitled to one vote for each share outstanding in his or her
name on the books of the Corporation, and all shares of the Series shall
vote as a single Series ("Single Series Voting"); provided, however, that
(i) as to any matter with respect to which a separate vote of a particular
Series is required by the 1940 Act or by the Maryland Corporation Code, such
requirement as to a separate vote by that Series shall apply in lieu of Single
Series Voting: (ii) in the event that the separate vote requirements referred
to in clause (i) above apply with respect to one or more Series, then subject
to clause (iii) below, the shares of all other Series shall vote as a single
Series; and (iii) as to any matter which does not affect the interest of a
particular Series, only the holders of shares of the one or more affected
Series shall be entitled to vote.
Each holder of shares of the Series shall have the right at such times as
may be permitted by the Corporation to require the Corporation to redeem all
or any part of his or her shares of a particular Series at a redemption
price per share equal to the net asset value per share of that Series next
determined (in accordance with subsection (h)) after the shares are properly
tendered for redemption. Payment of the proceeds of redemption shall be in
cash unless the Board of Directors determines, which determination shall be
conclusive, that conditions exist which make payment wholly in cash unwise or
undesirable. In the event of such determination, the Corporation may make
payment wholly or partly in securities or other assets belonging to the Series
at the value of such securities or assets used in such determination of net
asset value. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Corporation may postpone
payment of the redemption price and may suspend the right to the holders of
shares of a Series to require the Corporation to redeem shares of that
Series during any period or at any time when and to the extent permissible
under the 1940 Act.
Subject to compliance with the requirements of the 1940 Act, the Board of
Directors shall have the authority to provide that holders of shares of the
Series shall have the right to convert or exchange said shares into shares
of one or more other Series in accordance with such requirements and
procedures as may be established by the Board of Directors.
The holders of each class of shares of each Series shall have (i) exclusive
voting rights with respect to provisions of any service plan or service and
distribution plan adopted by the Corporation pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under
the 1940 Act (a "Plan") applicable to the respective class of the respective
Series and (ii) no voting rights with respect to the provisions of any Plan
applicable to any other class of Series of share or with regard to any other
matter submitted to a vote of shareholders which does not affect holders of
that respective class of the respective Series of shares.

AETNA SERIES FUND, INC.
RULE 18f-3
MULTI-CLASS PLAN
Introduction:
Pursuant to Rule 18f-3 under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the "1940
Act"), the following sets forth the separate class arrangements and expense
allocations as well as the exchange privileges of each class of shares issued
by the series comprising the Aetna Series Fund, Inc. Except as described
below, each class has the same rights and obligations as each other class as
required by Rule 18f-3.
Background:
Aetna Series Fund, Inc. (the "Fund") is an open-end investment company
registered under the 1940 Act, the shares of which are registered under the
Securities Act of 1933 (Registration No. (s) 33-41694, 33-85620 and 811-6352).
On September 14, 1993, and by later vote on November 9-10, 1993, a majority
of members of the Board of Directors of the Fund (the "Board"), including a
majority of the non-interested Board members, considered and approved the
offering of two classes of shares by each series of the Fund ("Series") as
described by this Plan. The Fund filed with the Securities and Exchange
Commission ("SEC") an application for exemptive relief permitting the Series
to issue multiple classes of shares. On April 13, 1994, the SEC issued the
exemptive order.
On February 23, 1995, the SEC adopted Rule 18f-3 (Release Nos. 33-7143,
IC-20915), eliminating the need for a fund seeking to issue multiple classes
of shares to obtain an exemptive order. The Rule stated that multiple class
funds relying on existing exemptive orders could instead choose to rely on
the rule.
Terms of the Plan:
This Plan does not make any material changes to the separate class
arrangements, expense allocations and exchange privileges previously approved
by the Board. No material changes will be made to this Plan without Board
approval.
The Fund currently consists of the following twelve (12) Series:
Aetna Money Market Fund
Aetna Government Fund
Aetna Bond Fund
The Aetna Fund
Aetna Growth and Income Fund
Aetna Growth Fund
Aetna Small Company Fund
Aetna International Growth Fund
Aetna Ascent Fund
Aetna Crossroads Fund
Aetna Legacy Fund
Aetna Index Plus Fund
1. Class Designations:
The shares are divided into two classes: 1) Class A shares, also known as
the Select Class, are shares that are offered to certain corporate retirement
plans, salaried employees and persons retired from salaried positions
(including members of employees' and retired persons' immediate families) of
Aetna Life Insurance and Annuity Company and its affiliates; insurance
companies (including separate accounts); registered investment companies;
investment advisers and broker-dealers acting for their own account: current
shareholders at the time of the first offering of Adviser Class shares and
their immediate family members, as long as they maintain a shareholder account;
Directors of the Funds, and member of such other groups as may be approved by
the Company's Board of Directors from time to time; and 2) Class B shares,
also known as the Adviser Class, are shares that are offered to persons not
eligible to buy Class A shares.
2. Differences in Distribution Arrangements:
Class A shares are distributed with no sales charges, distribution fees or
service fees.
Class B shares are sold at net asset value, without the imposition of a
sales load at the time of purchase. Class B shares are subject to a service
fee and a distribution fee based on the average daily net assets attributable
to Class B shares. These fees are imposed pursuant to a Shareholder Services
Plan, in the amount of 0.25% (with the exception of Class B shares of Aetna
Money Market Fund, which is subject to a fee of 0.10%) and a Distribution
Plan adopted under Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act, in the amount of 0.50%,
except for Aetna Money Market, which has no 12b-1 fee.
Class B shares also are subject to a contingent deferred sales charge
("CDSC") on certain redemptions. Specifically, redemptions of Class B shares
within four years of purchase are subject to a CDSC. The charge is assessed
on an amount equal to the lesser of the current market value or the original
cost of the shares being redeemed. Thus, there is no sales charge on
increases in the net asset value of shares above the initial purchase price.
There is no CDSC on redemptions of Class B shares purchased through
reinvestment of dividends or capital gain distributions or shares purchased
more than four years prior to the redemption. In addition, there is no CDSC
on Money Market Fund redemptions unless those shares were purchased through
an exchange from another Series within four years prior to the redemption.
The CDSC is calculated by multiplying the lesser of the current market value
or the original cost of the shares being redeemed, by the percentage shown
below, based on the time invested:
Redemption During CDSC
1st year since purchase 1.00%
2nd year since purchase .75%
3rd year since purchase .50%
4th year since purchase .25%
5th year and thereafter None
In determining the number of years the shares have been held, the Fund will
aggregate all purchases of Class B shares made during a month and consider
them made on the first day of the month.
3. Expense Allocation:
In addition to the allocation of the distribution fee and the shareholder
services fee described above, the following expenses shall be allocated, to
the extent practicable, on a class-by-class basis:
(1) expense of administrative personnel and services required to support the
shareholders of each class;
(2) transfer agency fees payable by each class;
(3) costs of printing the prospectuses and statements of additional
information relating to those classes;
(4) SEC and any "Blue Sky" registration fees;
(5) litigation or other legal expenses; and
(6) directors' fees incurred as a result of issues related to its class.
Income, realized and unrealized capital gains and losses, and expenses other
than those allocated as described in paragraph 2 above of each Series are
allocated to a particular class on the basis of the net asset value of that
class in relation to the net asset value of the Series.
4. Exchange Privileges:
Each class of shares may be exchanged for shares of the same class in
another Series of the Fund to the extent the exchanging shareholder is
eligible to purchase the shares of the Series into which the exchange is
being made. Currently, shares of each class may be exchanged at the net
asset value for shares of any other Series of the same class, subject to
minimum investment requirements of the Series.
5. Conversion Features:
No class of shares of a particular Series is convertible into another class
of shares of that Series.
6. Voting Rights:
Each class shall have exclusive voting rights on any matter submitted to
shareholders that relates solely to its arrangement. Furthermore, each class
shall have separate voting rights on any matter submitted to shareholders in
which the interests of one class differ from the interests of any other class.

regulations of the Commission. This determination may be viewed in terms of
either that particular transaction or the overall responsibilities that the
Adviser and its affiliates have with respect to accounts over which they

amended from time to time, under the 1933 Act and the 1940 Act;
3. the provisions of the Fund's Articles of Incorporation, as amended;
4. the provisions of the Bylaws of the Fund, as amended; and
5. any other applicable provisions of state and federal law.
VIII. COMPENSATION

Board that the provision of such services by the Adviser is in the best
interests of the Series and its shareholders. Payment or assumption by the
Adviser of any Series expense that the Adviser is not otherwise required to pay

time to time by the Adviser to the Fund on the Series at the request of the
Board.
XII. NONEXCLUSIVITY

exclusive, and the Adviser shall be free to render investment advisory or
other services to others (including other investment companies) and to engage

impaired thereby. It is understood and agreed that officers and directors of
