SunAmerica Life Insurance Company. If such expenses had been included, total return would have been lower for each period
presented.

INVESTMENT OBJECTIVES AND POLICIES
The discussion below is intended to supplement the information
contained in the Prospectus.
CASH MANAGEMENT PORTFOLIO. The Cash Management Portfolio seeks to
achieve its investment objective by investing in a diversified selection of
money market instruments. The money market instruments that the Portfolio may
invest in are as follows:
Commercial Bank Obligations. Certificates of deposit (interest-bearing
time deposits), bankers' acceptances (time drafts drawn on a
commercial bank where the bank accepts an irrevocable obligation to
pay at maturity) and documented discount notes (corporate promissory
discount notes accompanied by a commercial bank guarantee to pay at
maturity) representing direct or contingent obligations of commercial
banks with total assets in excess of $1 billion, based on the latest
published reports. The Cash Management Portfolio may also invest in
obligations issued by commercial banks with total assets of less than
$1 billion if the principal amount of these obligations owned by the
Cash Management Portfolio is fully insured by the Federal Deposit
Insurance Corporation ("FDIC").
Savings Association Obligations. Certificates of deposit
(interest-bearing time deposits) issued by mutual savings banks or
savings and loan associations with assets in excess of $1 billion and
whose deposits are insured by the FDIC. The Cash Management Portfolio
may also invest in obligations issued by mutual savings banks or
savings and loan associations with total assets of less than $1
billion if the principal amount of these obligations owned by the Cash
Management Portfolio is fully insured by the FDIC.
Commercial Paper. Short-term notes (up to 9 months) issued by
corporations or governmental bodies. The Cash Management Portfolio
may only purchase commercial paper judged by SunAmerica Asset
Management Corp. ("SAAMCo" or the "Adviser") to be of suitable
investment quality. This includes commercial paper that is (a) rated
in the two highest categories by Standard & Poor's Ratings Services, a
Division of The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc.
B-3
<PAGE> 10
("Standard & Poor's") and by Moody's Investors Service, Inc.
("Moody's"), or (b) other commercial paper deemed on the basis of the
issuer's creditworthiness to be of a quality appropriate for the Cash
Management Portfolio. (No more than 5% of the Cash Management
Portfolio's assets may be invested in commercial paper in the second
highest rating category; no more than the greater of 1% or $1 million
may be invested in such securities of any one issuer.) See
"Description of Commercial Paper and Bond Ratings" for a description of
the ratings. The Cash Management Portfolio will not purchase
commercial paper described in (b) above if such paper would in the
aggregate exceed 15% of its total assets after such purchase. The
commercial paper in which the Cash Management Portfolio may invest
includes variable amount master demand notes. Variable amount master
demand notes permit the Cash Management Portfolio to invest varying
amounts at fluctuating rates of interest pursuant to the agreement in
the master note. These are direct lending obligations between the
lender and borrower, they are generally not traded, and there is no
secondary market. Such instruments are payable with accrued interest
in whole or in part on demand. The amounts of the instruments are
subject to daily fluctuations as the participants increase or decrease
the extent of their participation. Investments in these instruments
are limited to those that have a demand feature enabling the Cash
Management Portfolio unconditionally to receive the amount invested
from the issuer upon seven or fewer days' notice. Generally, the Cash
Management Portfolio attempts to invest in instruments having a one-day
notice provision. In connection with master demand note arrangements,
the Adviser, subject to the direction of the trustees, monitors on an
ongoing basis, the earning power, cash flow and other liquidity ratios
of the borrower, and its ability to pay principal and interest on
demand. The Adviser also considers the extent to which the variable
amount master demand notes are backed by bank letters of credit. These
notes generally are not rated by Moody's or Standard & Poor's and the
Cash Management Portfolio may invest in them only if it is determined
that at the time of investment the notes are of comparable quality to
the other commercial paper in which the Portfolio may invest. Master
demand notes are considered to have a maturity equal to the repayment
notice period unless the Adviser has reason to believe that the
borrower could not make timely repayment upon demand.
B-4
<PAGE> 11
Corporate Bonds and Notes. The Cash Management Portfolio may purchase
corporate obligations that mature or that may be redeemed in one year
or less. These obligations originally may have been issued with
maturities in excess of one year. The Cash Management Portfolio may
invest only in corporate bonds or notes of issuers having outstanding
short-term securities rated in the top two rating categories by
Standard & Poor's and Moody's. See "Description of Commercial Paper
and Bond Ratings" for description of investment-grade ratings by
Standard & Poor's and Moody's.
LOAN PARTICIPATIONS AND ASSIGNMENTS. The Worldwide High Income
Portfolio may invest in fixed and floating rate loans ("Loans") arranged
through private negotiations between an issuer of sovereign or corporate debt
obligations and one or more financial institutions ("Lenders"). The
Portfolio's investments in Loans are expected in most instances to be in the
form of participations in Loans ("Participations") and assignments of all or a
portion of Loans ("Assignments") from third parties. In the case of
Participations, the Portfolio will have the right to receive payments of
principal, interest and any fees to which it is entitled only from the Lender
selling the Participation and only upon receipt by the Lender of the payments
from the borrower. In the event of the insolvency of the Lender selling a
Participation, the Portfolio may be treated as a general creditor of the Lender
and may not benefit from any set-off between the Lender and the borrower. The
Portfolio will acquire Participations only if the Lender interpositioned
between the Portfolio and the borrower is determined by the Subadviser to be
creditworthy. When the Portfolio purchases Assignments from Lenders it will
acquire direct rights against the borrower on the Loan. Because Assignments
are arranged through private negotiations between potential assignees and
potential assignors, however, the rights and obligations acquired by the
Portfolio as the purchaser of an Assignment may differ from, and be more
limited than, those held by the assigning Lender. Because there is no liquid
market for such securities, the Portfolio anticipates that such securities
could be sold only to a limited number of institutional investors. The lack of
a liquid secondary market may have an adverse impact on the value of such
securities and the Portfolio's ability to dispose of particular Assignments or
Participations when necessary to meet the Portfolio's liquidity needs or in
response to a specific economic event such as a deterioration in the
creditworthiness of the borrower. The lack of a liquid secondary market for
Assignments and Participations also may make it more difficult for the
Portfolio to assign a value to these securities for purposes of valuing the
Portfolio and calculating its net asset value.

<PAGE> 12
STRUCTURED INVESTMENTS. The Worldwide High Income Portfolio and the
International Growth and Income Portfolio may invest a portion of its assets
in entities organized and operated solely for the purpose of restructuring the
investment characteristics of sovereign debt obligations. This type of
restructuring involves the deposit with or purchase by an entity, such as a
corporation or trust, of specified instruments (such as commercial bank loans)
and the issuance by that entity of one or more classes of securities
("Structured Securities") backed by, or representing interests in, the
underlying instruments. The cash flow on the underlying instruments may be
apportioned among the newly issued Structured Securities to create securities
with different investment characteristics, such as varying maturities, payment
priorities and interest rate provisions, and the extent of the payments made
with respect to Structured Securities is dependent on the extent of the cash
flow on the underlying instruments. Because Structured Securities of the type
in which the Portfolio anticipates it will invest typically involve no credit
enhancement, their credit risk generally will be equivalent to that of the
underlying instruments. The Portfolio is permitted to invest in a class of
Structured Securities that is either subordinated or unsubordinated to the
right of payment of another class. Subordinated Structured Securities
typically have higher yields and present greater risks than unsubordinated
Structured Securities. Structured Securities are typically sold in private
placement transactions, and there currently is no active trading market for
Structured Securities.
The Portfolio's investments in government and government-related and
restructured debt instruments are subject to special risks, including the
inability or unwillingness to repay principal and interest, requests to
reschedule or restructure outstanding debt and requests to extend additional
loan amounts.
U.S. CORPORATE HIGH-YIELD FIXED-INCOME SECURITIES. A portion of each
of the Worldwide High Income and High-Yield Bond Portfolios' assets will be
invested in U.S. corporate high-yield fixed-income securities, which offer a
yield above that generally available on U.S. corporate debt securities in the
four highest rating categories of the recognized rating services. The Portfolio
may acquire fixed-income securities of U.S. issuers, including debt obligations
(e.g., bonds, debentures, notes, equipment lease certificates, equipment trust
certificates, conditional sales contracts, commercial paper and obligations
issued or guaranteed by the U.S. government or any of its political
subdivisions, agencies or instrumentalities) and preferred stock. These
fixed-income securities may have equity features, such as conversion rights or
warrants, and the Portfolio may invest up to 10% of its total assets in equity
features, such as conversion rights or warrants, and the Portfolio may invest up
to 10% of its total assets in
B-6
<PAGE> 13
equity securities other than preferred stock (e.g., common stock, warrants
and rights and limited partnership interests). The Portfolio may not invest
more than 5% of its total assets at the time of acquisition in either of (1)
equipment lease certificates, equipment trust certificates, equipment trust
certificates and conditional sales contracts or (2) limited partnership
interests.
EMERGING COUNTRY FIXED-INCOME SECURITIES. Certain of the Portfolios
may invest their assets, to varying degrees, in emerging country fixed-income
securities, which are debt securities of government and government-related
issuers located in emerging countries (including participations in loans
between governments and financial institutions), and of entities organized to
restructure outstanding debt of such issuers and debt securities of corporate
issuers located in or organized under the laws of emerging countries. As used
with respect to these Portfolios, an emerging country is any country that the
International Bank for Reconstruction and Development (more commonly known as
the World Bank) has determined to have a low or middle income economy. There
are currently over 130 countries which are considered to be emerging countries,
approximately 40 of which currently have established securities markets. The
countries generally include every nation in the world except the United States,
Canada, Japan, Australia, Singapore, New Zealand and most nations located in
Western Europe. Not withstanding the foregoing with respect to Putnam, in
addition to the exclusions listed above, the following countries should also be
excluded from the countries considered emerging markets: Austria, Belgium,
Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Ireland, Italy, the Netherlands, Norway,
Spain, Sweden, Switzerland and the United Kingdom.
In selecting emerging country debt securities for investment by the
Portfolio, the Subadviser will apply a market risk analysis contemplating
assessment of factors such as liquidity, volatility, tax implications, interest
rate sensitivity, counterparty risks and technical market considerations.
Currently, investing in many emerging country securities is not feasible or may
involve unacceptable political risks. The Portfolio expects that its
investments in emerging country debt securities will be made primarily in some
or all of the following emerging countries:
Argentina Indonesia Poland
Brazil Malaysia Portugal
Chile Mexico South Africa
Czech Republic Morocco Thailand
Egypt Pakistan Turkey
Greece Peru Uruguay
Hungary Philippines Venezuela
B-7
<PAGE> 14
As opportunities to invest in debt securities in other emerging
countries develop, the Portfolio expects to expand and further diversify the
emerging countries in which it invests. While the Portfolio generally is not
restricted in the portion of its assets which may be invested in a single
country or region, it is anticipated that, under normal circumstances, the
Portfolio's assets will be invested in at least three countries.
The Portfolio's investments in government and government-related and
restructured debt securities will consist of (i) debt securities or obligations
issued or guaranteed by governments, governmental agencies or instrumentalities
and political subdivisions located in emerging countries (including
participation in loans between governments and financial institutions), (ii)
debt securities or obligations issued by government owned, controlled or
sponsored entities located in emerging countries, and (iii) interests in
issuers organized and operated for the purpose of restructuring the investment
characteristics of instruments issued by any of the entities described above.
Such type of restructuring involves the deposit with or purchase by an entity
of specific instruments and the issuance by that entity of one or more classes
of securities backed by, or representing an interest in, the underlying
instruments. Certain issuers of such structured securities may be deemed to be
"investment companies" as defined in the Investment Company Act of 1940, as
amended, (the "1940 Act"). As a result, the Portfolio's investment in such
securities may be limited by certain investment restrictions contained in the
1940 Act.
The Portfolio's investments in debt securities of corporate issuers in
emerging countries may include debt securities or obligations issued (i) by
banks located in emerging countries or by branches of emerging country banks
located outside the country or (ii) by companies organized under the laws of an
emerging country. Determinations as to eligibility will be made by the
Subadviser based on publicly available information and inquiries made to the
issuer. The Portfolio may also invest in certain debt obligations customarily
referred to as "Brady Bonds," which are created through the exchange of
existing commercial bank loans to foreign entities for new obligations in
connection with debt restructuring under a plan introduced by former U.S.
Secretary of the Treasury Nicholas F. Brady.
Emerging country debt securities held by the Portfolio will take the
form of bonds, notes, bills, debentures, convertible securities, warrants, bank
debt obligations, short-term paper, mortgage-backed and other asset-backed
securities, loan participations, loan assignments and interests issued by
entities organized and operated for the purpose of restructuring the
B-8
<PAGE> 15
investment characteristics of instruments issued by emerging country issuers.
U.S. dollar-denominated emerging country debt securities held by the Portfolio
will generally be listed but not traded on a securities exchange, and non-U.S.
dollar-denominated securities held by the Portfolio may or may not be listed or
traded on a securities exchange. The Portfolio may invest in mortgage-backed
securities and in other asset-backed securities issued by non-governmental
entities such as banks and other financial institutions. Mortgage-backed
securities include mortgage pass-through securities and collateralized mortgage
obligations. Asset-backed securities are collateralized by such assets as
automobile or credit card receivables and are securitized either in a
pass-through structure or in a pay-through structure similar to a collaterized
mortgage obligation.
Investments in emerging country debt securities entail special
investment risks. Many of the emerging countries listed above may have less
stable political environments than more developed countries. Also, it may be
more difficult to obtain a judgement in a court outside the United States.
GLOBAL FIXED-INCOME SECURITIES. Certain of the Portfolios may invest
their assets, to varying degrees, in global fixed-income securities. These are
debt securities denominated in currencies of countries displaying high real
yields. Such securities include government obligations issued or guaranteed by
U.S. or foreign governments and their political subdivisions, authorities,
agencies or instrumentalities, and by supranational entities (such as the World
Bank, The European Economic Community, The Asian Development Bank and the
European Coal and Steel Community), Eurobonds, and corporate bonds with varying
maturities denominated in various currencies. In this portion of the
Portfolio, the Subadviser seeks to minimize investment risk by investing in a
high quality portfolio of debt securities, the majority of which will be rated
in one of the two highest rating categories by a nationally recognized
statistical rating organization. U.S. government securities in which the
Portfolio may invest include obligations issued or guaranteed by the U.S.
government, such as U.S. Treasury securities, as well as those backed by the
full faith and credit of the United States, such as obligations of the
Government National Mortgage Association and The Export-Import Bank. The
Portfolio may also invest in obligations issued or guaranteed by U.S.
government agencies or instrumentalities where the Portfolio must look
principally to the issuing or guaranteeing agency for ultimate repayment. The
Portfolio may invest in obligations issued or guaranteed by foreign governments
and their political subdivisions, authorities, agencies or instrumentalities,
and by supranational entities (such as the World Bank, The European Economic
Community, The Asian Development Bank and the European Coal and Steel
B-9
<PAGE> 16
Community). Investment in foreign government securities for this portion of
the Portfolio will be limited to those of developed nations which the
Subadviser believes to pose limited credit risk. These countries currently
include Australia, Austria, Belgium, Canada, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany,
Ireland, Italy, Japan, Luxembourg, the Netherlands, New Zealand, Norway,
Portugal, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland and the United Kingdom. Corporate and
supranational obligations selected for this portion of the portfolio will be
limited to those rated A or better by Moody's, Standard & Poor's or IBCA Ltd.
In selecting securities for this portion of the Portfolio, the
Subadviser evaluates the currency, market and individual features of the
securities being considered for investment. The Subadviser believes that
countries displaying the highest real yields will over time generate a high
total return, and accordingly, the Subadviser's focus for this portion of the
Portfolio will be to analyze the relative rates of real yield of twenty global
fixed-income markets. In selecting securities, the Subadviser will first
identify the global markets in which the Portfolio's assets will be invested by
ranking such countries in order of highest real yield. In this portion of its
portfolio, the Portfolio will invest its assets primarily in fixed-income
securities denominated in the currencies of countries within the top quartile
of the Subadviser's ranking.
The Subadviser's assessment of the global fixed-income markets is
based on an analysis of real interest rates. The Subadviser calculates real
yield for each global market by adjusting current nominal yields of securities
in each such market for inflation prevailing in each country using an analysis
of past and projected (one-year) inflation rates for that country. The
Subadviser expects to review and update on a regular basis its real yield
ranking of countries and market sectors and to alter the allocation of this
portion of the Portfolio's investments among markets as necessary when changes
to real yields and inflation estimates significantly alter the relative
rankings of the countries and market sectors.
SHORT SALES. Each Portfolio (other than the Cash Management
Portfolio) may make short sales, including "short sales against the box." A
short sale is effected by selling a security which the Portfolio does not own.
A short sale is against the box to the extent that the Portfolio
contemporaneously owns, or has the right to obtain without payment, securities
identical to those sold short. A Portfolio may not enter into a short sale
against the box, if, as a result, more than 25% of its total assets would be
subject to such short sales.
B-10
<PAGE> 17
When a Portfolio makes a short sale, the proceeds it receives from the
sale will be held on behalf of a broker until the Portfolio replaces the
borrowed securities. To deliver the securities to the buyer, the Portfolio
will need to arrange through a broker to borrow the securities and, in so
doing, the Portfolio will become obligated to replace the securities borrowed
at their market price at the time of replacement, whatever that price may be.
The Portfolio may have to pay a premium to borrow the securities and must pay
any dividends or interest payable on the securities until they are replaced.
The Portfolio's obligation to replace the securities borrowed in
connection with a short sale will be secured by collateral deposited with the
Trust's Custodian in the name of the broker that consists of cash or liquid
securities. In addition, the Portfolio will place in a segregated account with
its Custodian an amount of cash or liquid securities equal to the difference,
if any, between (1) the market value of the securities sold at the time they
were sold short and (2) any cash or liquid securities deposited as collateral
with the broker in connection with the short sale (not including the proceeds
of the short sale). In the event that the value of the collateral deposited
with the broker, plus the value of the assets in the segregated account should
fall below the value of the securities sold short, additional amounts to cover
the difference will be placed in the segregated accounts. Short sales by the
Portfolio involve certain risks and special considerations. Possible losses
from short sales differ from losses that could be incurred from a purchase of a
security, because losses from short sales may be unlimited, whereas losses from
purchases can equal only the total amount invested.
ILLIQUID SECURITIES. Each of the Portfolios may invest no more than
15% (10% in the case of the Cash Management Portfolio) of its net assets,
determined as of the date of purchase, in illiquid securities including
repurchase agreements which have a maturity of longer than seven days or in
other securities that are illiquid by virtue of the absence of a readily
available market or legal or contractual restrictions on resale. Historically,
illiquid securities have included securities subject to contractual or legal
restrictions on resale because they have not been registered under the
Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), securities which are
otherwise not readily marketable and repurchase agreements having a maturity of
longer than seven days. Repurchase agreements subject to demand are deemed to
have a maturity equal to the notice period. Securities which have not been
registered under the Securities Act are referred to as private placements or
restricted securities and are purchased directly from the issuer or in the
secondary market. Mutual funds do not typically hold a significant amount of
these restricted or other
B-11
<PAGE> 18
illiquid securities because of the potential for delays on resale and
uncertainty in valuation. Limitations on resale may have an adverse effect on
the marketability of portfolio securities and a mutual fund might be unable to
dispose of restricted or other illiquid securities promptly or at reasonable
prices and might thereby experience difficulty satisfying redemptions within
seven days. A mutual fund might also have to register such restricted
securities in order to dispose of them, resulting in additional expense and
delay. There generally will be a lapse of time between a mutual fund's decision
to sell an unregistered security and the registration of such security promoting
sale. Adverse market conditions could impede a public offering of such
securities. When purchasing unregistered securities, the Portfolios will seek
to obtain the right of registration at the expense of the issuer.
In recent years, a large institutional market has developed for
certain securities that are not registered under the Securities Act, including
repurchase agreements, commercial paper, foreign securities, municipal
securities and corporate bonds and notes. Institutional investors depend on an
efficient institutional market in which the unregistered security can be
readily resold or on an issuer's ability to honor a demand for repayment. The
fact that there are contractual or legal restrictions on resale to the general
public or to certain institutions may not be indicative of the liquidity of
such investments.
Restricted securities eligible for resale pursuant to Rule 144A under
the Securities Act for which there is a readily available market will not be
deemed to be illiquid. The Adviser or subadviser, as the case may be, will
monitor the liquidity of such restricted securities subject to the supervision
of the Board of Trustees of the Trust. In reaching liquidity decisions, the
Adviser, or subadviser, as the case may be, will consider, inter alia, pursuant
to guidelines and procedures established by the Trustees, 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 Cash Management Portfolio may invest in commercial paper issues
which include securities issued by major corporations without registration
under the Securities Act in reliance on the exemption from such registration
afforded by Section 3(a)(3) thereof, and commercial paper issued in reliance on
the so-called private placement exemption from registration which is afforded
by
B-12
<PAGE> 19
Section 4(2) of the Securities Act ("Section 4(2) paper"). Section 4(2)
paper is restricted as to disposition under the federal securities laws in that
any resale must similarly be made in an exempt transaction. Section 4(2) paper
is normally resold to other institutional investors through or with the
assistance of investment dealers who make a market in Section 4(2) paper, thus
providing liquidity. Section 4(2) paper that is issued by a company that files
reports under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is generally eligible to be
sold in reliance on the safe harbor of Rule 144A described above. The Cash
Management Portfolio's 10% limitation on investments in illiquid securities
includes Section 4(2) paper other than Section 4(2) paper that the Adviser has
determined to be liquid pursuant to guidelines established by the Trustees.
The Portfolio's Board of Trustees delegated to the Adviser the function of
making day-to-day determinations of liquidity with respect to Section 4(2)
paper, pursuant to guidelines approved by the Trustees that require the Adviser
to take into account the same factors described above for other restricted
securities and require the Adviser to perform the same monitoring and reporting
functions.
REVERSE REPURCHASE AGREEMENTS. The Cash Management, Corporate Bond,
High-Yield Bond, Worldwide High Income, SunAmerica Balanced, Utility, Federated
Value and Aggressive Growth Portfolios may enter into reverse repurchase
agreements with brokers, dealers, domestic and foreign banks or other financial
institutions that have been determined by the Adviser or Subadviser to be
creditworthy. In a reverse repurchase agreement, the Portfolio sells a
security and agrees to repurchase it at a mutually agreed upon date and price,
reflecting the interest rate effective for the term of the agreement. It may
also be viewed as the borrowing of money by the Portfolio. The Portfolio's
investment of the proceeds of a reverse repurchase agreement is the speculative
factor known as leverage. The Portfolios will enter into a reverse repurchase
agreement only if the interest income from investment of the proceeds is
expected to be greater than the interest expense of the transaction and the
proceeds are invested for a period no longer than the term of the agreement.
The Portfolio will maintain with the Custodian a separate account with a
segregated portfolio of cash or liquid securities in an amount at least equal
to its purchase obligations under these agreements (including accrued interest).
In the event that the buyer of securities under a reverse repurchase agreement
files for bankruptcy or becomes insolvent, the buyer or its trustee or receiver
may receive an extension of time to determine whether to enforce the Portfolio's
repurchase obligation, and the Portfolio's use of proceeds of the agreement may
effectively be restricted pending such decision. Reverse repurchase agreements
are considered to be borrowings and are subject to the percentage limitations on
borrowings. See "Investment Restrictions."
B-13
<PAGE> 20
FLOATING RATE OBLIGATIONS. These securities have a coupon rate that
changes at least annually and generally more frequently. The coupon rate is
set in relation to money market rates. The obligations, issued primarily by
banks, other corporations, governments and semi-governmental bodies, may have a
maturity in excess of one year. In some cases, the coupon rate may vary with
changes in the yield on Treasury bills or notes or with changes in LIBOR
(London Interbank Offering Rate). The Adviser considers floating rate
obligations to be liquid investments because a number of United States and
foreign securities dealers make active markets in these securities.
COVERED OPTIONS. Each Portfolio may write (sell) covered call and
put options on any securities in which it may invest. A Portfolio may purchase
and write such options on securities that are listed on national domestic
securities exchanges (and, for certain Portfolios, foreign securities
exchanges) or traded in the over-the-counter market. A call option written by
a Portfolio obligates a Portfolio to sell specified securities to the holder of
the option at a specified price if the option is exercised at any time before
the expiration date. All call options written by a Portfolio are covered,
which means that a Portfolio will own the securities subject to the option so
long as the option is outstanding. The purpose of writing covered call options
is to realize greater income than would be realized on portfolio securities
transactions alone. However, in writing covered call options for additional
income, a Portfolio may forego the opportunity to profit from an increase in
the market price of the underlying security.
A put option written by a Portfolio would obligate a Portfolio to
purchase specified securities from the option holder at a specified price if
the option is exercised at any time before the expiration date. All put
options written by a Portfolio would be covered, which means that the Portfolio
would have deposited with its custodian cash, U.S. government securities or
other high-grade debt securities (i.e., securities rated in one of the top
three categories by Moody's or Standard & Poor's, or, if unrated, deemed
by the Adviser or subadviser to be of comparable credit quality) with a value
at least equal to the exercise price of the put option. The purpose of writing
such options is to generate additional income for a Portfolio. However, in
return for the option premium, a Portfolio accepts the risk that it may be
required to purchase the underlying securities at a price in excess of the
securities' market value at the time of purchase.
PORTFOLIO STRATEGIES RELATED TO FOREIGN SECURITIES. Each Portfolio may
engage in various portfolio strategies to reduce certain risks of their
respective investments and/or to attempt to
B-14
<PAGE> 21
enhance return. Each Portfolio may engage in strategies including the purchase
and sale of forward foreign currency exchange contracts, currency and financial
index futures contracts (including, in the case of the Global Equities
Portfolio, stock index futures) and options thereon, put and call options on
currencies and financial indices, and combinations thereof. The Adviser or
Subadviser will use such techniques as market conditions warrant. Each
Portfolio's ability to use these strategies may be limited by market conditions,
regulatory limits and tax considerations and there can be no assurance that any
of these strategies will succeed. New financial products and risk management
techniques continue to be developed and these Portfolios may use these new
investments and techniques to the extent consistent with their investment
objective and policies.
In addition to direct investment, the Portfolios which may invest in
foreign securities may also invest in American Depositary Receipts ("ADRs") and
in other Depositary Receipts, including Global Depositary Receipts ("GDRs"),
European Depositary Receipts ("EDRs") and others (which, together with ADRs,
GDRs and EDRs, are hereinafter collectively referred to as "Depositary
Receipts"), to the extent that such Depositary Receipts become available. ADRs
are securities, typically issued by a U.S. financial institution (a
"depositary"), that evidence ownership interests in a security or a pool of
securities issued by a foreign issuer (the "underlying issuer") and deposited
with the depositary. ADRs include American Depositary Shares and New York
Shares and may be "sponsored" or "unsponsored." Sponsored ADRs are established
jointly by a depositary and the underlying issuer, whereas unsponsored ADRs may
be established by a depositary without participation by the underlying issuer.
GDRs, EDRs and other types of Depositary Receipts are typically issued by
foreign depositaries, although they may also be issued by U.S. depositaries,
and evidence ownership interests in a security or pool of securities issued by
either a foreign or a U.S. corporation. Holders of unsponsored Depositary
Receipts generally bear all the costs associated with establishing the
unsponsored Depositary Receipt. The depositary of unsponsored Depositary
Receipts is under no obligation to distribute shareholder communications
received from the underlying issuer or to pass through to the holders of the
unsponsored Depositary Receipt voting rights with respect to the deposited
securities or pool of securities. Depositary Receipts are not necessarily
denominated in the same currency as the underlying securities to which they may
be connected. Generally, Depositary Receipts in registered form are designed
for use in the U.S. securities market and Depositary Receipts in bearer form
are designed for use in securities markets outside the United States. A
Portfolio may invest in sponsored and unsponsored Depositary Receipts. For
purposes of a Portfolio's investment policies, the
B-15
<PAGE> 22
Portfolio's investments in Depositary Receipts will be deemed to be investments
in the underlying securities. The Portfolios also may invest in securities
denominated in European Currency Units ("ECUs"). Generally ADRs, in registered
form, are dollar denominated securities designed for use in the U.S. securities
markets, which represent and may be converted into the underlying foreign
security. EDRs, in bearer form, are designed for use in the European
securities markets. An "ECU" is a "basket" consisting of specified amounts of
currencies of certain of the twelve member states of the European Community.
The specific amount of currencies comprising the ECU may be adjusted by the
Council of Ministers of the European Community from time to time to reflect
changes in relative values of the underlying currencies. In addition, the
Portfolios may invest in securities denominated in other currency "baskets."
See "Description of Securities and Investment Techniques - Risks and
Considerations Applicable to Investment in Securities of Foreign Issuers" in
the Prospectus.
The Portfolios may also invest in emerging country securities. As
used with respect to this Portfolio, the term "emerging country" applies to any
country which, in the opinion of the Subadviser, is generally considered to be
an emerging or developing country by the international financial community,
including the International Bank for Reconstruction and Development (more
commonly known as the World Bank) and the International Finance Corporation.
There are currently over 130 countries which, in the opinion of the Subadviser,
are generally considered to be emerging or developing countries by the
international financial community, approximately 40 of which currently have
stock markets. These countries generally include every nation in the world
except the United States, Canada, Japan, Australia, New Zealand, Singapore and
most nations located in Western Europe. Not withstanding the foregoing with
respect to the Emerging Markets Portfolio, the Subadviser believes that in
addition to the exclusions listed above, the following countries should also be
excluded from the countries considered emerging markets: Austria, Belgium,
Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Ireland, Italy, the Netherlands, Norway,
Spain, Sweden, Switzerland and the United Kingdom. Currently, investing
in many emerging countries is not feasible or may invoke unacceptable political
risks.
The International Diversified Equities Portfolio will focus its
investments on those emerging market countries in which it believes the
economies are developing strongly and in which the markets are becoming more
sophisticated. With respect to the portions of such Portfolio that is invested
in emerging country equity securities, the Portfolio initially intends to
invest primarily in some or all of the following countries:
B-16
<PAGE> 23
Argentina Indonesia Portugal Thailand
Brazil Mexico South Africa Turkey
India Philippines South Korea
As markets in other countries develop, the International Diversified
Equities Portfolio expects to expand and further diversify the emerging
countries in which it invests. The Portfolio does not intend to invest in any
security in a country where the currency is not freely convertible to U.S.
dollars, unless the Portfolio has obtained the necessary governmental licensing
to convert such currency or other appropriately licensed or sanctioned
contractual guarantee to protect such investment against loss of that
currency's external value, or the Portfolio has a reasonable expectation at the
time the investment is made that such governmental licensing or other
appropriately licensed or sanctioned guarantee would be obtained or that the
currency in which the security is quoted would be freely convertible at the
time of any proposed sale of the security by the Portfolio.
An emerging country security is one issued by a company that, in the
opinion of the Subadviser, has one or more of the following characteristics:(i)
it is organized under the laws of, and has a principal office in, an emerging
country, or (ii) alone or on a consolidated basis it derives 50% or more of its
annual revenue from business in emerging countries. An emerging market
security may also include a company which has its principal securities trading
market in an emerging country. The Subadviser will base determinations as to
eligibility on publicly available information and inquiries made to the
companies.
FOREIGN CURRENCY AND FINANCIAL INDEX TRANSACTIONS - FORWARD EXCHANGE
AND FUTURES CONTRACTS, OPTIONS AND OPTIONS ON FUTURES CONTRACTS. Each
Portfolio may enter into contracts for the purchase or sale for future delivery
of foreign currencies ("forward currency exchange contracts"), financial and
foreign currency futures contracts or contracts based on financial indices
("futures contracts") and may purchase and write put and call options to buy or
sell currencies and to buy or sell futures contracts ("options on futures
contracts").
A forward foreign currency contract is an obligation to purchase or
sell a currency against another currency at a future date and price as agreed
upon by the parties. A "sale" of a foreign currency futures contract means
entering into a contract to deliver the foreign currencies called for by the
contract at a specified price on a specified date. A "purchase" of a foreign
currency futures contract means entering into a contract to acquire the foreign
currencies called for by the contract at a specified price on a specified date.
B-17
<PAGE> 24
An exchange-traded futures contract relating to foreign currency, or a
financial index, is similar to a forward foreign currency exchange contract but
has a standardized size and exchange date. A Portfolio may either accept or
make delivery of the currency at the maturity of such a contract or, prior to
maturity, enter into a closing transaction involving the purchase or sale of an
offsetting contract. The purchaser of a futures contract on an index agrees to
take or make delivery of an amount of cash equal to the difference between a
specified dollar multiple of the value of the index on the expiration date of
the contract and the price at which the contract was originally struck. No
physical delivery of the securities underlying the index is made.
Over-the-counter currency instruments are subject to the risk that the
counterparty to such instruments will default on its obligations. Since
over-the-counter currency instruments are not guaranteed by an exchange or
clearinghouse, a default on the instrument would deprive the Portfolio of
unrealized profits, transaction costs or the benefits of a currency hedge or
force the Portfolio to cover its purchase or sale commitments, if any, at the
current market price. A Portfolio will not enter into such transactions unless
the credit quality of the unsecured senior debt or the claims-paying ability of
the counterparty is considered to be investment grade by the Adviser or
Subadviser.
Each Portfolio may enter into futures contracts in anticipation of, or
to protect against, fluctuations in currency exchange rates. A Portfolio
might, for example, enter into a futures contract when it wanted to hold
securities denominated in a particular currency but anticipated, and wished to
be protected against, a decline in that currency against the U.S. dollar.
Similarly, it might enter into futures contracts to "lock in" the U.S. dollar
price of non-U.S. dollar denominated securities that it anticipated purchasing.
Although futures contracts typically will involve the purchase and sale of a
foreign currency against the U.S. dollar, a Portfolio also may enter into
currency contracts not involving the U.S. dollar.
In connection with these futures transactions, the Trust has filed a
notice of eligibility with the Commodity Futures Trading Commission ("CFTC")
that exempts the Trust from CFTC registration as a "commodity pool operator" as
defined under the Commodity Exchange Act. Pursuant to this notice, each
Portfolio will observe certain CFTC guidelines with respect to its futures
transactions that, among other things, require the Portfolio to use futures for
bona fide "hedging" purposes only (as defined by CFTC rules), and, in the case
of futures transactions for non-bona fide hedging purposes, to limit initial
margin deposits to no more than 5% of its net assets after taking into account
unrealized profits and
B-18
<PAGE> 25
unrealized losses on any such contracts entered into. In addition, subject to
the limitation on margin deposits described above, a Portfolio may engage in
futures transactions for non-bona fide hedging purposes, provided that the total
value of such long futures positions will not exceed the sum of (a) cash or cash
equivalents set aside in an identifiable manner for this purpose, (b) cash
proceeds on existing investments due within 30 days, and (c) accrued profits on
such futures or options positions.
Parties to futures contracts and holders and writers of options on
futures can enter into offsetting closing transactions, similar to closing
transactions on options, by selling or purchasing, respectively, an instrument
identical to the instrument held or written. Positions in futures and options
on futures may be closed only on an exchange or board of trade where there
appears to be a liquid secondary market. However, there can be no assurance
that such a market will exist for a particular contract at a particular time.
Secondary markets for options on futures are currently in the development
stage, and no Portfolio will trade options on futures on any exchange or board
of trade unless, in the judgment of the Adviser or applicable Subadviser, the
markets for such options have developed sufficiently that the liquidity risks
for such options are not greater than the corresponding risks for futures.
Under certain circumstances, futures exchanges may establish daily
limits on the amount that the price of a future or related option can vary from
the previous day's settlement price; once that limit is reached, no trades may
be made that day at a price beyond the limit. Daily price limits do not limit
potential losses because prices could move to the daily limit for several
consecutive days with little or no trading, thereby preventing liquidation of
unfavorable positions.
If a Portfolio were unable to liquidate a futures or related options
position due to the absence of a liquid secondary market or the imposition of
price limits, it could incur substantial losses. The Portfolio would continue
to be subject to market risk with respect to its position. In addition, except
in the case of purchased options, the Portfolio would continue to be required
to make daily variation margin payments and might be required to maintain the
position being hedged by the future or option or to maintain cash or securities
in a segregated account.
Certain characteristics of the futures market might increase the risk
that movements in the prices of futures contracts or related options might not
correlate perfectly with movements in the prices of the investments being
hedged. For example, all participants in the futures and related options
markets are subject
B-19
<PAGE> 26
to daily variation margin calls and might be compelled to liquidate futures or
related option positions whose prices are moving unfavorably to avoid being
subject to further calls. These liquidations could increase price volatility of
the instruments and distort the normal price relationship between the futures or
options and the investments being hedged. Also, because initial margin deposit
requirements in the futures markets are less onerous than margin requirements in
the securities markets, there might be increased participation by speculators in
the futures markets. This participation also might cause temporary price
distortions. In addition, activities of large traders in both the futures and
securities markets involving arbitrage, "program trading" and other investment
strategies might result in temporary price distortions.
In connection with the purchase of futures contracts, a Portfolio will
deposit and maintain in a segregated account with the Trust's custodian an
amount of cash or liquid securities equal to its obligations under the futures
contracts less any amounts maintained in a margin account with the Trust's
futures broker.
OPTIONS - Each Portfolio may attempt to accomplish objectives similar
to those involved in their use of futures contracts by purchasing or selling
put or call options on currencies, currency futures contracts, and financial
index futures (including, in the case of the Global Equities Portfolio, stock
index futures). A foreign currency put option gives the Portfolio as purchaser
the right (but not the obligation) to sell a specified amount of currency at
the exercise price until the expiration of the option. A call option gives the
Portfolio as purchaser the right (but not the obligation) to purchase a
specified amount of currency at the exercise price until its expiration. A
Portfolio might purchase a currency put option, for example, to protect itself
during the contract period against a decline in the U.S. dollar value of a
currency in which it holds or anticipates holding securities. If the currency's
value should decline against the U.S. dollar, the loss in currency value should
be offset, in whole or in part, by an increase in the value of the put. If the
value of the currency instead should rise against the U.S. dollar, any gain to
the Portfolio would be reduced by the premium it had paid for the put option. A
currency call option might be purchased, for example, in anticipation of, or to
protect against, a rise in the value against the U.S. dollar of a currency in
which a Portfolio anticipates purchasing securities.
Currency options may be either listed on an exchange or traded
over-the-counter ("OTC options"). Listed options are third-party contracts
(i.e., performance of the obligations of the purchaser and seller is guaranteed
by the exchange or clearing corporation), and have standardized strike prices
and expiration dates. OTC
B-20
<PAGE> 27
options are two-party contracts with negotiated strike prices and expiration
dates. OTC options differ from exchange-traded options in that OTC options are
transacted with dealers directly and not through a clearing corporation (which
guarantees performance). Consequently, there is a risk of non-performance by
the dealer. Since no exchange is involved, OTC options are valued on the basis
of a quote provided by the dealer. A Portfolio will not purchase an OTC option
unless it is believed that daily valuations for such options are readily
obtainable. In the case of OTC options, there can be no assurance that a liquid
secondary market will exist for any particular option at any specific time.
An option on a securities index is similar to an option on a security
except that, rather than the right to take or make delivery of a security at a
specified price, an option on an index gives the holder the right to receive,
upon exercise of the option, an amount of cash if the closing level of the
chosen index is greater than (in the case of a call) or less than (in the case
of a put) the exercise price of the option.
Options on futures contracts to be written or purchased by a Portfolio
will be traded on U.S. or foreign exchanges or over-the-counter. These
investment techniques will be used only to hedge against anticipated future
changes in market conditions or exchange rates which otherwise might either
adversely affect the value of a Portfolio's securities or adversely affect the
prices of securities which a Portfolio intends to purchase at a later date.
CERTAIN RISK FACTORS RELATING TO HIGH-YIELD BONDS. The Corporate
Bond, High-Yield Bond, Worldwide High Income, Balanced/Phoenix Investment
Counsel, Asset Allocation, Real Estate and Emerging Markets Portfolios may
invest in high-yield bonds. These bonds present certain risks which are
discussed below:
Sensitivity to Interest Rate and Economic Changes - High-yield bonds
are very sensitive to adverse economic changes and corporate
developments. During an economic downturn or substantial period of
rising interest rates, highly leveraged issuers may experience
financial stress that would adversely affect their ability to service
their principal and interest payment obligations, to meet projected
business goals, and to obtain additional financing. If the issuer of
a bond defaulted on its obligations to pay interest or principal or
entered into bankruptcy proceedings, a Portfolio may incur losses or
expenses in seeking recovery of amounts owed to it. In addition,
periods of economic uncertainty and changes can be expected to result
in increased volatility of market
B-21
<PAGE> 28
prices of high-yield bonds and the Portfolio's net asset value.
Payment Expectations - High-yield bonds may contain redemption or call
provisions. If an issuer exercised these provisions in a declining
interest rate market, a Portfolio would have to replace the security
with a lower yielding security, resulting in a decreased return for
investors. Conversely, a high-yield bond's value will decrease in a
rising interest rate market, as will the value of the Portfolio's
assets. If the Portfolio experiences unexpected net redemptions, this
may force it to sell high-yield bonds without regard to their
investment merits, thereby decreasing the asset base upon which
expenses can be spread and possibly reducing the Portfolio's rate of
return.
Liquidity and Valuation - There may be little trading in the secondary
market for particular bonds, which may affect adversely a Portfolio's
ability to value accurately or dispose of such bonds. Adverse
publicity and investor perceptions, whether or not based on
fundamental analysis, may decrease the values and liquidity of
high-yield bonds, especially in a thin market.
CERTAIN RISK FACTORS AFFECTING UTILITY COMPANIES. The Utility and
Real Estate Portfolios may invest in equity and debt securities of utility
companies. There are certain risks and considerations affecting utility
companies, and the holders of utility company securities, which an investor
should take into account when investing in those securities. Factors which may
adversely affect utility companies include: difficulty in financing large
construction programs during inflationary periods; technological innovations
which may cause existing plants, equipment, or products to become less
competitive or obsolete; the impact of natural or man-made disaster (especially
on regional utilities); increased costs or reductions in production due to the
unavailability of appropriate types of fuels; seasonally or occasionally
reduced availability or higher cost of natural gas; and reduced demand due to
energy conservation among consumers. These revenues of domestic and foreign
utility companies generally reflect the economic growth and developments in the
geographic areas in which they do business. Furthermore, utility securities
tend to be interest rate sensitive.
In addition, most utility companies in the United States and in
foreign countries are subject to government regulation. Generally, the purpose
of such regulation is to ensure desirable levels of service and adequate
capacity to meet public demand. To
B-22
<PAGE> 29
this end, prices are often regulated to enable consumers to obtain service at
what is perceived to be a fair price, while attempting to provide utility
companies with a rate of return sufficient to attract capital investment
necessary for continued operation and necessary growth. Recently, utility
regulators have permitted utilities to diversify outside of their original
geographic regions and their traditional lines of business. While the
Subadvisers believe that these opportunities will permit certain utility
companies to earn more than their traditional regulated rates of return, other
companies may be forced to defend their core business and may be less
profitable. Of course, there can be no assurance that all of the regulatory
policies described in this paragraph will continue in the future.
In addition to the effects of regulation described in the previous
paragraph, utility companies may also be adversely affected by the following
regulatory considerations: (i) the development and implementation of a national
energy policy; (ii) the differences between regulatory policies of different
jurisdictions (or different regulators which have concurrent jurisdiction);
(iii) shifts in regulatory policies; (iv) adequacy of rate increases; and (v)
future regulatory legislation.
Foreign utility companies may encounter different risks and
opportunities than those located in the United States. Foreign utility
companies may be more heavily regulated than their United States counterparts.
Many foreign utility companies currently use fuels which cause more pollution
than fuels used by United States utilities. In the future, it may be necessary
for such foreign utility companies to invest heavily in pollution control
equipment or otherwise meet pollution restrictions. Rapid growth in certain
foreign economies may encourage the growth of utility industries in those
countries.
In addition to the foregoing considerations which affect most utility
companies, there are specific considerations which affect specific utility
industries:
Electric. The electric utility industry is composed of companies that
are engaged in the generation, transmission, and sale of electric energy.
Electric utility companies may be affected either favorably or unfavorably,
depending upon the circumstances, by the following: fuel costs; financing
costs; size of the region in which sales are made; operating costs;
environmental and safety regulations; changes in the regulatory environment;
and the length of time needed to complete major construction projects.
B-23
<PAGE> 30
In the United States, the construction and operation of nuclear power
facilities is subject to a high degree of regulatory oversight by the Nuclear
Regulatory Commission and state agencies with concurrent jurisdiction. In
addition, the design, construction, licensing, and operation of nuclear power
facilities are often subject to lengthy delays and unanticipated costs due to
changes in regulatory policy, regional political actions, and lawsuits.
Furthermore, during rate authorizations, utility regulators may disallow the
inclusion in electric rates of the higher operating costs and expenditures
resulting from these delays and unanticipated costs, including the costs of a
nuclear facility which a utility company may never be able to use.
Telecommunications. The telephone industry is large and highly
concentrated. The greatest portion of this segment is comprised of companies
which distribute telephone services and provide access to the telephone
networks. While many telephone companies have diversified into other
businesses in recent years, the profitability of telephone utility companies
could be adversely affected by increasing competition, technological
innovations, and other structural changes in the industry.
Cable television companies are typically local monopolies, subject to
scrutiny by both utility regulators and municipal governments. Emerging
technologies and legislation encouraging local competition are combining to
threaten these monopolies and may slow future growth rates of these companies.
The radio telecommunications segment of this industry, including cellular
telephone, is in its early developmental phase and is characterized by
emerging, rapidly growing companies.
Gas. Gas transmission and distribution companies are undergoing
significant changes. In the United States, the Federal Energy Regulatory
Commission is reducing its regulation of interstate transmission of gas. While
gas utility companies have in the recent past been adversely affected by
disruptions in the oil industry, increased concentration, and increased
competition, the Subadviser believes that environmental considerations should
benefit the gas industry in the future.
Water. Water utility companies purify, distribute, and sell water.
This industry is highly fragmented because most of the water supplies are owned
by local authorities. Water utility companies are generally mature and are
experiencing little or no per capita volume growth. The Subadviser believes
that favorable investment opportunities may result if anticipated consolidation
and foreign participation in this industry occurs.

CONVENTIONAL MORTGAGE PASS-THROUGH SECURITIES. Conventional mortgage
pass-through securities ("Conventional Mortgage Pass-Throughs") represent
participation interests in pools of mortgage loans that are issued by trusts
formed by originators of the institutional investors in mortgage loans (or
represent custodial arrangements administered by such institutions). These
originators and institutions include commercial banks, savings and loan
associations, credit unions, savings banks, insurance companies, investment
banks or special purpose subsidiaries of the foregoing. For federal income tax
purposes, such trusts are generally treated as grantor trusts or real estate
mortgage conduits ("REMIC") and, in either case, are generally not subject to
any significant amount of federal income tax at the entity level.
The mortgage pools underlying Conventional Mortgage Pass-Throughs
consist of conventional mortgage loans evidenced by promissory notes secured by
first mortgages or first deeds of trust or other similar security instruments
creating a first lien on residential or mixed residential and commercial
properties. Conventional Mortgage Pass-Throughs (whether fixed or adjustable
rate) provide for monthly payments that are a "pass-through" of the monthly
interest and principal payments (including any prepayments) made by the
individual borrowers on the pooled mortgage loans, net of any fees or other
amount paid to any guarantor, administrator and/or servicer of the underlying
mortgage loans. A trust fund with respect to which a REMIC election has been
made may include regular interests in other REMICs which in turn will
ultimately evidence interests in mortgage loans.
Conventional mortgage pools generally offer a higher rate of interest
than government and government-related pools because of the absence of any
direct or indirect government or agency payment guarantees. However, timely
payment of interest and principal of mortgage loans in these pools may be
supported by various forms of insurance or guarantees, including individual
loans, title, pool and hazard insurance and letters of credit. The insurance
and guarantees may be issued by private insurers and mortgage poolers. Although
the market for such securities is becoming increasingly liquid, mortgage-related
securities issued by private organizations may not be readily marketable.
CERTAIN COLLATERALIZED MORTGAGE OBLIGATIONS. Principal and interest
on the underlying mortgage assets may be allocated among the several classes of
Collateralized Mortgage Obligations ("CMOs") in various ways. In certain
structures (known as "sequential pay" CMOs), payments of principal, including
any principal prepayments, on the mortgage assets generally are applied to the
classes of CMOs in the order of their respective final distribution dates.
Thus, no payment of principal will be made on any class of sequential pay
B-25
<PAGE> 32
CMOs until all other classes having an earlier final distribution date have been
paid in full.
Additional structures of CMOs include, among others, "parallel pay"
CMOs. Parallel pay CMOs are those which are structured to apply principal
payments and prepayments of the mortgage assets to two or more classes
concurrently on a proportionate or disproportionate basis. These simultaneous
payments are taken into account in calculating the final distribution date of
each class.
A wide variety of CMOs may be issued in the parallel pay or sequential
pay structures. These securities include accrual certificates (also known as
"Z-Bonds"), which only accrue interest at a specified rate until all other
certificates having an earlier final distribution date have been retired and
are converted thereafter to an interest-paying security, and planned
amortization class ("PAC") certificates, which are parallel pay CMOs which
generally require that specified amounts of principal be applied on each
payment date to one or more classes of CMOs (the "PAC Certificates"), even
though all other principal payments and prepayments of the mortgage assets are
then required to be applied to one or more other classes of the certificates.
The scheduled principal payments for the PAC Certificates generally have the
highest priority on each payment date after interest due has been paid to all
classes entitled to receive interest currently. Shortfalls, if any, are added
to the amount payable on the next payment date. The PAC Certificate payment
schedule is taken into account in calculating the final distribution date of
each class of PAC. In order to create PAC tranches, one or more tranches
generally must be created that absorb most of the volatility in the underlying
mortgage assets. These tranches tend to have market prices and yields that are
much more volatile than the PAC classes.
WARRANTS. The Corporate Bond, High-Yield, SunAmerica Balanced,
Utility, Federated Value, Aggressive Growth, Real Estate International Growth
and Income and Emerging Markets Portfolios may invest in warrants which give
the holder of the warrant a right to purchase a given number of shares of a
particular issue at a specified price until expiration. Such investments can
generally provide a greater potential for profit or loss than investments of
equivalent amounts in the underlying common stock. The prices of warrants do
not necessarily move with the prices of the underlying securities. If the
holder does not sell the warrant, it risks the loss of its entire investment
if the market price of the underlying stock does not, before the expiration
date, exceed the exercise price of the warrant plus the cost thereof.
Investment in warrants is a speculative activity. Warrants pay no dividends
and confer no rights (other than the right to purchase the underlying stock)
with respect to the assets of the issuer. Although certain of the
B-26
<PAGE> 33
Portfolios may not invest directly in warrants, such Portfolios may invest in
securities that are acquired as part of a unit consisting of a combination of
fixed-income and equity securities or securities to which warrants are attached.
DESCRIPTION OF COMMERCIAL PAPER AND BOND RATINGS
COMMERCIAL PAPER RATINGS. Moody's employs the designations "P-1,"
"P-2" and "P-3" to indicate commercial paper having the highest capacity for
timely repayment. Issuers rated P-1 have a superior capacity for repayment of
short-term promissory obligations. P-1 repayment capacity will normally be
evidenced by the following characteristics: leading market positions in
well-established industries; high rates of return on funds employed;
conservative capitalization structures with moderate reliance on debt and ample
asset protection; broad margins in earnings coverage of fixed financial charges
and high internal cash generation; and well-established access to a range of
financial markets and assured sources of alternate liquidity. Issues rated P-2
have a strong capacity for repayment of short-term promissory obligations.
This will normally be evidenced by many of the characteristics cited above, but
to a lesser degree. Earnings trends and coverage ratios, while sound, will be
more subject to variation. Capitalization characteristics, while still
appropriate, may be more affected by external conditions. Ample alternative
liquidity is maintained.
Standard & Poor's ratings of commercial paper are graded into four
categories ranging from A for the highest quality obligations to D for the
lowest. A - Issues assigned its highest rating are regarded as having the
greatest capacity for timely payment. Issues in this category are delineated
with numbers 1, 2, and 3 to indicate the relative degree of safety. A-1 -
This designation indicates that the degree of safety regarding timely payment is
either overwhelming or very strong. Those issues determined to possess
overwhelming safety characteristics will be denoted with a plus (+) sign
designation. A-2 - Capacity for timely payments on issues with this designation
is strong. However, the relative degree of safety is not as high as for issues
designated A-1.
Duff & Phelps Rating Co. ("Duff & Phelps") commercial paper ratings
are consistent with the short-term rating criteria utilized by money market
participants. Duff & Phelps commercial paper ratings refine the traditional 1
category. The majority of commercial issuers carry the higher short-term
rating yet significant quality differences within that tier do exist. As a
consequence, Duff & Phelps has incorporated gradations of 1+ and 1-to assist
investors in recognizing those differences.
B-27
<PAGE> 34
Duff 1+ - Highest certainty of time repayment. Short-term liquidity,
including internal operating factors and/or access to alternative sources of
funds, is outstanding, and safety is just below risk-free U.S. Treasury
short-term obligations. Duff 1 - Very high certainty of timely payment.
Liquidity factors are excellent and supported by good fundamental protection
factors. Risk factors are minor. Duff 1- - High certainty of timely payment.
Liquidity factors are strong and supported by good fundamental protection
factors. Risk factors are very small. Duff 2 - Good certainty of timely payment.
Liquidity factors and company fundamentals are sound. Although ongoing funding
needs may enlarge total financing requirements, access to capital markets is
good. Risk factors are small. Duff 3 - Satisfactory liquidity and other
protection factors, qualify issue as investment grade. Risk factors are larger
and subject to more variation. Nevertheless, timely payment is expected. Duff 4
- - Speculative investment characteristics. Liquidity is not sufficient to insure
against disruption in debt service. Operating factors and market access may be
subject to a high degree of variation. Duff 5 - Default.
The short-term ratings of Fitch Investor Services, Inc. ("Fitch")
apply to debt obligations that are payable on demand or have original
maturities of generally up to three years, including commercial paper,
certificates of deposit, medium-term notes, and municipal and investment notes.
The short-term rating places greater emphasis than a long-term rating on the
existence of liquidity necessary to meet the issuer's obligations in a timely
manner. Fitch short-term ratings are as follows: F-1+ Exceptionally Strong
Credit Quality - Issues assigned this rating are regarded as having the
strongest degree of assurance for timely payment. F-1 Very Strong Credit
Quality -Issues assigned this rating reflect an assurance of timely payment
only slightly less in degree than issues rated F-1+. F-2 Good Credit Quality -
Issues assigned this rating have a satisfactory degree of assurance for timely
payment, but the margin of safety is not as great as for issues assigned F-1+
and F-1 ratings. F-3 Fair Credit Quality -Issues assigned this rating have
characteristics suggesting that the degree of assurance for timely payment is
adequate, however, near-term adverse changes could cause these securities to be
rated below investment grade. F-5 Weak Credit Quality - Issues assigned this
rating have characteristics suggesting a minimal degree of assurance for timely
payment and are vulnerable to near-term adverse changes in financial and
economic conditions. D Default -Issues assigned this rating are in actual or
imminent payment default. LOC - The symbol LOC indicates that the rating is
based on a letter of credit issued by a commercial bank.
B-28
<PAGE> 35
Thomson BankWatch, Inc. ("BankWatch") short-term ratings apply only to
unsecured instruments that have a maturity of one year or less. These
short-term ratings specifically assess the likelihood of an untimely payment of
principal and interest. TBW-1 is the highest category, which indicates a very
high degree of likelihood that principal and interest will be paid on a timely
basis. TBW-2 is the second highest category and, while the degree of safety
regarding timely repayment of principal and interest is strong, the relative
degree of safety is not as high as for issues rated TBW-1.
CORPORATE DEBT SECURITIES. Moody's rates the long-term debt
securities issued by various entities from "Aaa" to "C." Aaa - Best quality.
These securities carry the smallest degree of investment risk and are generally
referred to as "gilt edge." Interest payments are protected by a larger, or by
an exceptionally stable margin and principal is secure. While the various
protective elements are likely to change, such changes as can be visualized are
more unlikely to impair the fundamentally strong position of these issues. Aa
- - High quality by all standards. They are rated lower than the best bond
because margins of protection may not be as large as in Aaa securities,
fluctuation of protective elements may be of greater amplitude, or there may be
other elements present that make the long-term risks appear somewhat greater.
A - Upper medium grade obligations. These bonds possess many favorable
investment attributes. Factors giving security to principal and interest are
considered adequate, but elements may be present that suggest a susceptibility
to impairment sometime in the future. Baa - Medium grade obligations.
Interest payments and principal security appear adequate for the present but
certain protective elements may be lacking or may be characteristically
unreliable over any great length of time. Such bonds lack outstanding
investment characteristics and, in fact, have speculative characteristics as
well. Ba - Have speculative elements; future cannot be considered as well
assured. The protection of interest and principal payments may be very moderate
and thereby not well safeguarded during both good and bad times over the future.
Bonds in this class are characterized by uncertainty of position. B - Generally
lack characteristics of the desirable investment assurance of interest and
principal payments or of maintenance of other terms of the contract over any
long period of time may be small. Caa - Of poor standing. Issues may be in
default or there may be present elements of danger with respect to principal or
interest. Ca - Speculative in a high degree; often in default or have other
marked shortcomings. C - Lowest rated class of bonds; can be regarded as having
extremely poor prospects of ever attaining any real investment standings.
B-29
<PAGE> 36
Standard & Poor's rates the long-term securities debt of various
entities in categories ranging from "AAA" to "D" according to quality. AAA -
Highest rating. Capacity to pay interest and repay principal is extremely
strong. AA - High grade. Very strong capacity to pay interest and repay
principal. Generally, these bonds differ from AAA issues only in a small degree.
A - Have a strong capacity to pay interest and repay principal, although they
are somewhat more susceptible to the adverse effects of change in circumstances
and economic conditions than debt in higher rated categories. BBB - Regarded as
having adequate capacity to pay interest and repay principal. These bonds
normally exhibit adequate protection parameters, but adverse economic conditions
or changing circumstances are more likely to lead to a weakened capacity to pay
interest and repay principal than for debt in higher rated categories. BB, B,
CCC, CC, C - Regarded, on balance, as predominately speculative with respect to
capacity to pay interest and repay principal in accordance with the terms of the
obligation. BB indicated the lowest degree of speculation and C the highest
degree of speculative. While this debt will likely have some quality and
protective characteristics, these are outweighed by large uncertainties or major
risk exposures to adverse conditions. C1 - Reserved for income bonds on which no
interest is being paid. D - In default and payment of interest and/or repayment
of principal is in arrears.
Fitch rates the long-term debt securities issued by various entities in
categories "AAA" to "D" according to quality. AAA is considered to be investment
grade and of the highest credit quality. The ability to pay interest and repay
principal is exceptionally strong. AA is considered to be investment grade and
of very high credit quality. The ability to pay interest and repay principal is
very strong, although not quite as strong as AAA issues. A is considered to be
investment grade and of high credit quality. The ability to pay interest and
repay principal is strong, but these issues may be more vulnerable to adverse
changes in economic conditions and circumstances than higher rated issues. BBB
is considered to be investment grade and of satisfactory credit quality. The
ability to pay interest and repay principal is adequate. These issues are more
likely to be affected by adverse changes in economic conditions and
circumstances and, therefore, impair timely payment. The likelihood that the
ratings of these issues will fall below investment grade is higher than for
issues with higher ratings. BB is considered speculative. The ability to pay
interest and repay principal may be affected over time by adverse economic
changes. B is considered highly speculative. The probability of continued
timely payment of principal and interest reflects the obligor's limited margin
of safety and the need for reasonable business and economic activity throughout
the life of the issue. CCC issues are considered to have certain identifiable
B-30
<PAGE> 37
characteristics which may lead to default. The ability to meet obligations
requires an advantageous business and economic environment. CC issues are
minimally protected and default in payment of interest and/or principal seems
probable over time. Issues rated C are in imminent default in payment of
interest or principal. DDD, DD, and D issues are in default on interest and/or
principal payments and are extremely speculative. Plus(+) and minus(-) signs are
used with a rating symbol to indicate the relative position within the rating
category.
Duff & Phelps rates long-term debt specifically to credit quality,
i.e., the likelihood of timely payment for principal and interest. AAA is
considered the highest quality. AA is considered high quality. A is regarded
as good quality. BBB is considered to be investment grade and of satisfactory
credit quality. BB and B are considered to be non-investment grade and CCC is
regarded as speculative. Ratings in the long-term debt categories may include
a plus(+) or minus(-) designation which indicates where within the respective
category the issue is placed.
BankWatch rates the long-term debt securities issued by various
entities either AAA or AA. AAA is the highest category, which indicates the
ability to repay principal and interest on a timely basis is very high. AA is
the second highest category, which indicates a superior ability to repay
principal and interest on a timely basis with limited incremental risk versus
issues rated in the highest category. Ratings in the long-term debt categories
may include a plus (+) or minus (-) designation which indicates where within
the respective category the issue is placed.
INVESTMENT RESTRICTIONS
The Trust has adopted certain investment restrictions for each
Portfolio that cannot be changed without approval by a majority of its
outstanding voting securities. Such majority is defined as the vote of the
lesser of (i) 67% or more of the outstanding shares of the Portfolios present
at a meeting, if the holders of more than 50% of the outstanding shares are
present in person or by proxy or (ii) more than 50% of the outstanding shares
of the Portfolios.
INVESTMENT RESTRICTIONS OF THE CASH MANAGEMENT PORTFOLIO
The Cash Management Portfolio has adopted the following restrictions
that are fundamental policies. These fundamental policies, as well as the Cash
Management Portfolio's investment objective, cannot be changed without approval
by a majority of its outstanding voting securities. All percentage limitations
expressed in the following investment restrictions are measured
B-31
<PAGE> 38
immediately after the relevant transaction is made. The Cash Management
Portfolio may not:
1. Invest more than 5% of the value of its total assets in the
securities of any one issuer, provided that this limitation shall apply only to
75% of the value of the Portfolio's total assets, and, provided further, that
the limitation shall not apply to obligations of the government of the U.S. or
of any corporation organized as an instrumentality of the U.S. under a general
act of Congress.
2. As to 75% of its total assets, purchase more than 10% of the
outstanding voting class of securities of an issuer.
3. Invest more than 25% of the Portfolio's total assets in the
securities of issuers in the same industry. Obligations of the U.S.
Government, its agencies and instrumentalities, are not subject to this 25%
limitation on industry concentration. In addition, the Portfolio may, if
deemed advisable, invest more than 25% of its assets in the obligations of
domestic commercial banks.
4. Make loans to others except for the purchase of the debt
securities listed above under its Investment Policies. The Portfolio may,
however, enter into repurchase agreements.
5. Borrow money, except from banks for temporary purposes, and
then in an amount not in excess of 5% of the value of the Portfolio's total
assets. Moreover, in the event that the asset coverage for such borrowings
falls below 300%, the Portfolio will reduce within three days the amount of its
borrowings in order to provide for 300% asset coverage.
6. Sell securities short except to the extent that the Portfolio
contemporaneously owns or has the right to acquire at no additional cost
securities identical to those sold short.
7. Act as underwriter of securities issued by others, engage in
distribution of securities for others, or make investments in other companies
for the purpose of exercising control or management.
In addition to the foregoing, the Cash Management Portfolio has
adopted the following non-fundamental policies (which may be changed by the
Trustees without shareholder approval). Under these restrictions, the Cash
Management Portfolio may not:
a. Enter into any repurchase agreement maturing in more than
seven days or invest in any other illiquid security if, as a
B-32
<PAGE> 39
result, more than 10% of the Portfolio's total assets would be so invested.
b. Pledge or hypothecate its assets.
c. Invest in puts, calls, straddles, spreads or any combination
thereof, except as permitted by the Prospectus and Statement of Additional
Information, as amended from time to time.
d. Invest in securities of other investment companies except to
the extent permitted by applicable law and the Prospectus and Statement of
Additional Information, as amended from time to time.
e. Invest more than 5% of its assets (measured at the time of

INVESTMENT ADVISORY AND MANAGEMENT AGREEMENT
The Trust, on behalf of each Portfolio, entered into an Investment

handle the management of the Trust and its day to day affairs.
The Investment Advisory and Management Agreement (except with respect
to the SunAmerica Balanced, Utility, Federated Value, Aggressive Growth,
International Growth and Income, Real Estate and Emerging Markets Portfolios)
continues in effect from year to year, in accordance with its terms, unless
terminated, and may be renewed from year to year as to each Portfolio for so
long as such renewal is specifically approved at least annually by (i) the Board
of Trustees, or by the vote of a majority (as defined in the 1940 Act) of the
outstanding voting securities of each relevant Portfolio, and (ii) the vote of a
majority of Trustees who are not parties to the Agreement or interested persons
(as defined in the 1940 Act) of any such party, cast in person, at a meeting
called for the purpose of voting on such approval. The Investment Advisory and
Management Agreement was last so approved by the Board of Trustees at a meeting
held on July 18, 1996. With respect to the SunAmerica Balanced, Utility,
Federated Value and Aggressive Growth Portfolios, the Agreement will continue in
effect until
B-38
<PAGE> 45
September 16, 1997, unless terminated, and may be renewed from year to year
thereafter in the manner set forth above. With respect to the International
Growth and Income, Real Estate and Emerging Markets Portfolios, the Agreement
will continue in effect until April 15, 1999, unless terminated, and may be
renewed from year to year thereafter in the manner set forth above. The
Agreement also provides that it may be terminated by either party without
penalty upon 60 days' written notice to the other party. The Agreement provides
for automatic termination upon assignment.
The Investment Advisory and Management Agreement provides that the
Adviser shall act as investment adviser to the Trust, manage the Trust's
investments, administer its business affairs, furnish offices, necessary
facilities and equipment, provide clerical, bookkeeping and administrative
services, and permit any of the Adviser's officers or employees to serve
without compensation as Trustees or officers of the Trust if duly elected to
such positions. Under the Agreement, the Trust agrees to assume and pay
certain charges and expenses of its operations, including: direct charges
relating to the purchase and sale of portfolio securities, interest charges,
fees and expenses of independent legal counsel and independent accountants,
cost of stock certificates and any other expenses (including clerical expenses)
of issue, sale, repurchase or redemption of shares, expenses of registering
and qualifying shares for sale, expenses of printing and distributing reports,
notices and proxy materials to shareholders, expenses of data processing and
related services, shareholder recordkeeping and shareholder account service,
expenses of printing and distributing prospectuses and statements of additional
information, expenses of annual and special shareholders' meetings, fees and
disbursements of transfer agents and custodians, expenses of disbursing
dividends and distributions, fees and expenses of Trustees who are not
employees of the Adviser or its affiliates, membership dues in the Investment
Company Institute or any similar organization, all taxes and fees to Federal,
state or other governmental agencies, insurance premiums and extraordinary
expenses such as litigation expenses.
Under the terms of the Advisory Agreement, the Adviser is not liable
to the Trust, or to any other person, for any act or omission by it or for any
losses sustained by the Trust or its shareholders, except in the case of
willful misfeasance, bad faith, gross negligence or reckless disregard of duty.
Each Portfolio pays its actual expenses for custodian services and a
portion of the Custodian's costs determined by the ratio of portfolio assets to
the total assets of the Trust, brokerage commissions or transaction costs, and
registration fees. Subject to supervision of the Board of Trustees, fees for
independent
B-39
<PAGE> 46
accountants, legal counsel, costs of reports of notices to shareholders will be
allocated based on the relative net assets of each Portfolio. With respect to
audit or legal fees clearly attributable to one Portfolio, they will be
assessed, subject to review by the Board of Trustees, against that Portfolio.
As compensation for its services, the Adviser receives from the Trust
a fee, accrued daily and payable monthly, based on the net assets of each
Portfolio. The following table sets forth the total advisory fees received by
the Adviser from each Portfolio pursuant to the Investment Advisory and
Management Agreement for the fiscal years ended November 30, 1996, 1995 and

PERSONAL TRADING. The Trust and the Adviser have adopted a written
Code of Ethics (the "Code") which prescribes general rules of conduct and sets
forth guidelines with respect to personal securities trading by "Access
Persons" thereof. An Access Person as defined in the Code is an individual who
is a trustee, director, officer, general partner or advisory person of the
Trust or the Adviser. The guidelines on personal securities trading include:
(i) securities being considered for purchase or sale, or purchased or sold, by
any Investment Company advised by the Adviser, (ii) Initial Public Offerings,
(iii) private placements, (iv) blackout periods, (v) short-term trading
profits, (vi) gifts, and (vii) services as a director. These guidelines are
substantially similar to those contained in the Report of the Advisory Group on
Personal Investing issued by the Investment Company Institute's Advisory Panel.
The Adviser reports to the Board of Trustees on a quarterly basis, as to
whether there were any violations of the Code by Access Persons of the Trust or
any Subadviser during the quarter.
The Subadvisers have adopted a written Code of Ethics, the provisions
of which are materially similar to those in the Code, and have, with exception
to Putnam, undertaken to comply with the provisions of the Code to the extent
such provisions are more restrictive. Further, the Subadvisers report to the
Adviser on a quarterly basis, as to whether there were any Code of Ethics
violations by employees thereof who may be deemed Access Persons of the Trust.
In turn, the Adviser reports to the Board of Trustees as to whether there were
any violations of the Code by Access Persons of the Trust or any Subadviser.

To the extent not yet utilized, such losses will be available to each of the
Portfolios to offset future gains through 2002 and 2004. The utilization of
such losses will be subject to annual limitations under the Internal Revenue
Code.
PRICE OF SHARES
Shares of the Trust are currently offered only to the Variable
Separate Account. The Trust is open for business on any day the New York Stock
Exchange ("NYSE") is open for business. Shares are valued each day as of the
close of regular trading on the NYSE (generally, 4:00 p.m., Eastern time).
Each portfolio calculates the net asset value of each class of its shares
separately by dividing the total value of each class's net assets by the shares
of such class outstanding. The net asset value of a portfolio's shares will
also be computed on each other day in which there is a sufficient degree of
trading in such portfolio's securities that the net asset value of its shares
might be materially affected by changes in the values of the portfolio
securities; provided, however, that on such day the Trust receives a request to
purchase or redeem such portfolio's shares. The days and times of such
computation may, in the future, be changed by the Trustees in the event that
the portfolio securities are traded in significant amounts in markets other
than the NYSE, or on days or at times other than those during which the NYSE is
open for trading.
B-44
<PAGE> 51
Stocks and convertible bonds and debentures traded on the NYSE are
valued at the last sale price on such exchange on the day of valuation, or if
there is no sale on the day of valuation, at the last-reported bid price.
Non-convertible bonds and debentures and other long-term debt securities
normally are valued at prices obtained for the day of valuation from a bond
pricing service, when such prices are available. In circumstances where the
Adviser or Subadviser deems it appropriate to do so, an over-the-counter or
exchange quotation (at the mean of representative quoted bid or asked prices for
such securities or, if such prices are not available, at prices for securities
of comparable maturity, quality and type) may be used. Securities traded
primarily on securities exchanges outside the United States are valued at the
last sale price on such exchanges on the day of valuation, or if there is no
sale on the day of valuation, at the last-reported bid price. U.S. Treasury
bills, and other obligations issued by the U.S. Government, its agencies or
instrumentalities, certificates of deposit issued by banks, corporate short-term
notes and other short-term investments with original or remaining maturities in
excess of 60 days are valued at the mean of representative quoted bid and asked
prices for such securities or, if such prices are not available, for securities
of comparable maturity, quality and type. Short-term securities with 60 days or
less to maturity are amortized to maturity based on their cost to the Trust if
acquired within 60 days of maturity or, if already held by the Trust on the 60th
day, are amortized to maturity based on the value determined on the 61st day.
Options on currencies purchased by a Portfolio are valued at their last bid
price in the case of listed options or at the average of the last bid prices
obtained from dealers in the case of OTC options. Futures contracts involving
foreign currencies traded on exchanges are valued at their last sale or
settlement price as of the close of such exchanges or if no sales are reported,
at the mean between the last reported bid and asked prices. Other securities
are valued on the basis of last sale or bid price (if a last sale price is not
available) in what is, in the opinion of the Adviser or Subadviser, the broadest
and most representative market, that may be either a securities exchange or the
over-the-counter market. Where quotations are not readily available, securities
are valued at fair value as determined in good faith by the Board of Trustees.
The fair value of all other assets is added to the value of securities to arrive
at the respective Portfolio's total assets.
A Portfolio's liabilities, including proper accruals of expense items,
are deducted from total assets. The net asset value of the respective
Portfolio is divided by the total number of shares outstanding to arrive at the
net asset value per share.

EXECUTION OF PORTFOLIO TRANSACTIONS
It is the policy of the Trust, in effecting transactions in portfolio
securities, to seek the best execution at the most favorable prices. The
determination of what may constitute best execution involves a number of
considerations, including the economic result to the Trust (involving both
price paid or received and any commissions and other costs), the efficiency
with which the transaction is effected where a large block is involved, the
availability of the broker to stand ready to execute potentially difficult
transactions and the financial strength and stability of the broker. Such
considerations are judgmental and are considered in determining the overall
reasonableness of brokerage commissions paid.
A factor in the selection of brokers is the receipt of research
services -- analyses and reports concerning issuers, industries, securities,
economic factors and trends -- and other statistical and factual information.
Research and other statistical and factual information provided by brokers is
considered to be in addition to and not in lieu of services required to be
performed by the Adviser or Subadviser.
The extent to which commissions may reflect the value of research
services cannot be presently determined. To the extent that research services
of value are provided by broker-dealers with or through whom the Adviser or
Subadviser places the Trust's portfolio transactions, the Adviser or Subadviser
may be relieved of expenses it might otherwise bear. Research services
furnished by broker-dealers could be useful and of value to the Adviser or
Subadviser in serving other clients as well as the Trust and research services
obtained by the Adviser or Subadviser as a result of the placement of portfolio
brokerage of other clients could be useful and of value in serving the Trust.
In the over-the-counter market, securities are generally traded on a
"net" basis with dealers acting as principal for their own accounts without a
stated commission, although the price of a security usually 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 may be purchased directly from an issuer, in which
case no commissions or discounts are paid. The Trust has obtained exemptive
orders from the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC"), permitting the
Trust in certain circumstances to deal with securities dealers (that may be
deemed to be affiliated persons of affiliated persons of the Trust solely
because of a subadvisory relationship with one or more Portfolios) as a
principal in purchases and sales of certain securities, and to pay commissions,
fees or other remuneration to such securities
B-46
<PAGE> 53
dealers in connection with the sale of securities to or by any of the Portfolios
on a securities exchange without complying with certain of the requirements of
Rule 17e-1 under the 1940 Act.
Subject to the above considerations, the Adviser or a Subadviser may
use broker-dealer affiliates of the Adviser or a Subadviser, as a broker for
any Portfolio. In order for such broker-dealer to effect any portfolio
transactions for a Portfolio, the commissions, fees or other remuneration
received by the broker-dealer must be reasonable and fair compared to the
commissions, fees or other remuneration paid to other brokers in connection with
comparable transactions involving similar securities being purchased or sold on
a securities exchange during a comparable period of time. This standard would
allow such broker-dealer to receive no more than the remuneration which would be
expected to be received by an unaffiliated broker in a commensurate arm's-length
transaction. Furthermore, the Trustees of the Trust, including a majority of
the non-interested Trustees, have adopted procedures which are reasonably
designed to provide that any commissions, fees or other remuneration paid to
such broker-dealers are consistent with the foregoing standard. These types of
brokerage transactions are also subject to such fiduciary standards as may be
imposed upon the broker-dealers by applicable law.
The following tables set forth the brokerage commissions paid by the
Portfolios and the amounts of the brokerage commissions which were paid to
affiliated broker-dealers of such Portfolios for the fiscal years ended
November 30, 1996, 1995 and 1994.

The Adviser and the Subadvisers and their respective affiliates may
manage, or have proprietary interests in, accounts with similar or dissimilar or
the same investment objectives as one or more Portfolios of the Trust. Such
account may or may not be in competition with a Portfolio for investments.
Investment decisions for such accounts are based on criteria relevant to such
accounts; portfolio decisions and results of the Portfolio's investments may
differ from those of such other accounts. There is no obligation to make
available for use in managing the Portfolio any information or strategies used
or developed in managing such accounts. In addition, when two or more accounts
seek to purchase or sell the same assets, the assets actually purchased or sold
may be allocated among accounts on a good faith equitable basis at the
discretion of the account's adviser. In some cases, this system may adversely
affect the price or size of the position obtainable for a Portfolio.
If determined by the Adviser or Subadviser to be beneficial to the
interests of the Trust, partners and/or employees of the Adviser or Subadvisers
may serve on investment advisory committees, which will consult with the
Adviser regarding investment objectives and strategies for the Trust. In
connection with serving on such a committee, such persons may receive
information regarding a Portfolio's proposed investment activities which is not
generally available to unaffiliated market participants, and there will be no
obligation on the part of such persons to make available for use in managing
the Portfolio any information or strategies known to them or developed in
connection with their other activities.
It is possible that a Portfolio's holdings may include securities of
entities for which a subadviser or its affiliate performs investment banking
services as well as securities of entities in which a subadviser or its
affiliate makes a market. From time to time, such activities may limit a
Portfolio's flexibility in purchases and sales of securities. When a
subadviser or its affiliate is engaged in an underwriting or other distribution
of securities of an entity, the subadviser may be prohibited from purchasing or
recommending the purchase of certain securities of that entity for the
Portfolio.

SUNAMERICA SERIES TRUST
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
1. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION: SunAmerica Series Trust
("the Trust"), organized as a Massachusetts business trust on September 11,
1992, is an open-end management investment company. It was established to
provide a funding medium for certain annuity contracts issued by Variable
Separate Account (the "Account"), a separate account of Anchor National Life
Insurance Company ("the Life Company"), organized under the laws of the state of
Arizona.
The Trust issues 21 separate series of shares ("the Portfolios"), each of
which represents a separate managed portfolio of securities with its own
investment objectives. The Trustees may establish additional series in the
future. All shares may be purchased or redeemed by the Account at net asset
value without any sales or redemption charge.
The investment objectives for each portfolio are as follows:
The Cash Management Portfolio seeks high current yield while preserving capital
by investing in a diversified selection of money market instruments.
The Global Bond Portfolio seeks a high total return, emphasizing current income
and, to a lesser extent, providing opportunities for capital appreciation,
through investment in high quality fixed-income securities of U.S. and foreign
issuers and through transactions in foreign currencies.
The Corporate Bond Portfolio seeks a high total return with only moderate price
risk by investing primarily in investment grade fixed-income securities.
The High-Yield Bond Portfolio seeks a high level of current income and
secondarily seeks capital appreciation by investing primarily in intermediate
and long-term corporate obligations, with emphasis on higher-yielding,
higher-risk, lower-rated or unrated securities.
The Worldwide High Income Portfolio seeks high current income and, secondarily,
capital appreciation, by investing primarily in a portfolio of high-yielding
fixed-income securities of issuers located throughout the world.
The SunAmerica Balanced Portfolio seeks to conserve principal by maintaining at
all times a balanced portfolio of stocks and bonds.
The Balanced/Phoenix Investment Counsel Portfolio seeks reasonable income,
long-term capital growth and conservation of capital by investing primarily in
common stocks and fixed-income securities, with an emphasis on income-producing
securities which appear to have some potential for capital enhancement.
The Asset Allocation Portfolio seeks high total return (including income and
capital gains) consistent with preservation of capital over the long-term
through a diversified portfolio that can include common stocks and other
securities having common stock characteristics, bonds and other intermediate and
long-term fixed-income securities and money market instruments (debt securities
maturing in one year or less) in any combination.
The Utility Portfolio seeks high current income and moderate capital
appreciation by investing primarily in the equity and debt securities of utility
companies.
The Growth-Income Portfolio seeks growth of capital and income by investing
primarily in common stocks or securities which demonstrate the potential for
appreciation and/or dividends.
The Federated Value Portfolio seeks growth of capital and income by investing
primarily in the securities of high quality companies.
The Venture Value Portfolio seeks to achieve growth of capital by investing
primarily in common stocks.
The Putnam Growth (formerly, the Provident Growth Portfolio), Growth/Phoenix
Investment Counsel and Alliance Growth Portfolios each seeks long-term growth of
capital by investing primarily in common stocks or securities with common stock
characteristics which demonstrate the potential for appreciation.
The Global Equities Portfolio seeks long-term growth of capital through
investment primarily in common stocks or securities of U.S. and foreign issuers
with common stock characteristics which demonstrate the potential for
appreciation and through transactions in foreign currencies.
---------------------
115
<PAGE> 116
The International Growth and Income Portfolio seeks growth of capital and
current income through investment primarily in common stocks and securities
principally traded on markets outside the United States that offer potential for
capital growth and current income.
The International Diversified Equities Portfolio seeks long-term capital
appreciation by investing in accordance with country weightings determined by
the Subadviser in common stocks of foreign issuers which, in the aggregate,
replicate broad country indices.
The Real Estate Portfolio seeks total return through a combination of growth and
income by investment primarily in securities of companies principally engaged in
or related to the real estate industry or which own significant real estate
assets or which primarily invest in real estate instruments.
The Aggressive Growth Portfolio seeks long-term growth of capital through
investment primarily in equity securities of small capitalization growth
companies.
The Emerging Markets Portfolio seeks long-term capital appreciation by investing
in common stocks that have above-average growth prospects primarily in emerging
markets outside the United States.
2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES: The preparation of financial statements in
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to
make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts and disclosures
in the financial statements. Actual results could differ from these estimates.
In the opinion of management of the Trust, the accompanying financial statements
contain all normal and recurring adjustments necessary for the fair presentation
of the financial position of the Trust at November 30, 1997, and the results of
its operations, the changes in its net assets and its financial highlights for
the periods then ended. The following is a summary of significant accounting
policies consistently followed by the Trust in the preparation of its financial
statements.
SECURITY VALUATIONS: Stocks are stated at value based upon closing sales
prices reported on recognized securities exchanges or, for listed securities
having no sales reported and for unlisted securities, upon last-reported bid
prices. Nonconvertible bonds, debentures, other long-term debt securities, and
short-term securities with original or remaining maturities in excess of 60 days
are valued at prices obtained for the day of valuation from a bond pricing
service of a major dealer in bonds when such prices are available; however, in
circumstances where the investment adviser deems it appropriate to do so, an
over-the-counter or exchange quotation at the mean of representative bid or
asked prices may be used. Securities traded primarily on securities exchanges
outside the United States are valued at the last sale price on such exchanges on
the day of valuation, or if there is no sale on the day of valuation, at the
last reported bid price. If a security's price is available from more than one
foreign exchange, a portfolio uses the exchange that is the primary market for
the security. Futures contracts are valued at the last sale price established
each day by the board of trade or exchange on which they are traded. Short-term
securities with 60 days or less to maturity are amortized to maturity based on
their cost to the Trust if acquired within 60 days of maturity or, if already
held by the Trust on the 60th day, are amortized to maturity based on the value
determined on the 61st day. Securities for which quotations are not readily
available are valued at fair value as determined in good faith under the
direction of the Trust's Trustees.
REPURCHASE AGREEMENTS: The Trust's custodian takes possession of the
collateral pledged for investments in repurchase agreements. The underlying
collateral is valued daily on a mark-to-market basis to assure that the value,
including accrued interest, is at least equal to the repurchase price. In the
event of default of the obligation to repurchase, the Trust has the right to
liquidate the collateral and apply the proceeds in satisfaction of the
obligation. If the seller defaults and the value of the collateral declines or
if bankruptcy proceedings are commenced with respect to the seller of the
security, realization of the collateral by the Trust may be delayed or limited.
FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATION: The books and records of the Trust are
maintained in U.S. dollars. Assets and liabilities denominated in foreign
currencies and commitments under forward foreign currency contracts are
translated into U.S. dollars at the mean of the quoted bid and asked prices of
such currencies against the U.S. dollar.
The Trust does not isolate that portion of the results of operations arising
as a result of changes in the foreign exchange rates from the changes in the
market prices of securities held at fiscal year-end. Similarly, the Trust does
not isolate the effect of changes in foreign exchange rates from the changes in
the market prices of portfolio securities sold during the year.
Realized foreign exchange gain and losses on other assets and liabilities and
change in unrealized foreign exchange gain and losses on other assets and
liabilities include realized foreign exchange gains and losses from currency
gains or losses between the trade and settlement dates of securities
transactions, the difference between the amounts of interest, dividends and
foreign withholding taxes recorded on the Trust's books and the U.S. dollar
equivalent amounts actually received or paid and changes in the unrealized
foreign exchange gains and losses relating to the other assets and liabilities
arising as a result of changes in the exchange rate.
FORWARD FOREIGN CURRENCY CONTRACTS: Certain portfolios may enter into forward
foreign currency contracts ("forward contracts") to attempt to protect
securities and related receivables and payables against changes in future
foreign exchange rates or to enhance return. A forward contract is an agreement
between two parties to buy or sell currency at a set price on a future date. The
market value of the contract will fluctuate with changes in currency exchange
rates. The contract is marked-to-
- ---------------------
116
<PAGE> 117
market daily using the forward rate and the change in market value is recorded
by the Portfolio as unrealized gain or loss. On the settlement date, the
Portfolio records either realized gains or losses when the contract is closed
equal to the difference between the value of the contract at the time it was
opened and the value at the time it was closed. Risks may arise upon entering
into these contracts from the potential inability of counterparties to meet the
terms of their contracts and from unanticipated movements in the value of a
foreign currency relative to the U.S. dollar. Forward contracts involve elements
of risk in excess of the amount reflected in the Statement of Assets and
Liabilities. The Trust bears the risk of an unfavorable change in the foreign
exchange rate underlying the forward contract.
FUTURES CONTRACTS: A futures contract is an agreement between two parties to
buy and sell a financial instrument at a set price on a future date. Upon
entering into such a contract the Trust is required to pledge to the broker an
amount of cash or U.S. government securities equal to the minimum "initial
margin" requirements of the exchange on which the futures contract is traded.
The contract amount reflects the extent of a portfolio's exposure in these
financial instruments. A portfolio's participation in the futures markets
involves certain risks, including imperfect correlation between movements in the
price of futures contracts and movements in the price of the securities hedged
or used for cover. The Trust's activities in the futures contracts are conducted
through regulated exchanges which do not result in counterparty credit risks.
Pursuant to a contract, the portfolios agree to receive from or pay to the
broker an amount of cash equal to the daily fluctuation in value of the
contract. Such receipts or payments are known as "variation margin" and are
recorded by the portfolios as unrealized appreciation or depreciation. When a
contract is closed, the Portfolios record a realized gain or loss equal to the
difference between the value of the contract at the time it was opened and the
value at the time it was closed.
OPTIONS: An option is a contract conveying a right to buy or sell a financial
instrument at a specified price during a stipulated period. The premium paid by
a Portfolio for the purchase of a call or a put option is included in the
Portfolio's Statement of Assets and Liabilities as an investment and
subsequently marked to market to reflect the current market value of the option.
When a Portfolio writes a call or a put option, an amount equal to the premium
received by the Portfolio is included in the Portfolio's Statement of Assets and
Liabilities as a liability and is subsequently marked to market to reflect the
current market value of the option written. If an option which the Portfolio has
written either expires on its stipulated expiration date, or if the Portfolio
enters into a closing purchase transaction, the Portfolio realizes a gain (or
loss if the cost of a closing purchase transaction exceeds the premium received
when the option was written) without regard to any unrealized gain or loss on
the underlying security, and the liability related to such options is
extinguished. If a call option which the Portfolio has written is exercised, the
Portfolio realizes a capital gain or loss from the sale of the underlying
security and the proceeds from such sale are increased by the premium originally
received. If a put option which the Portfolio has written is exercised, the
amount of the premium originally received reduces the cost of the security which
the Portfolio purchased upon exercise of the option.
CURRENCY SWAPS: Currency swaps involve the exchange by a Portfolio with
another party of its respective rights to make or receive payments in specified
currencies. Currency swaps usually involve the delivery of the principal value
of one designated currency in exchange for the other designated currency.
Therefore, the entire principal value of a currency swap is subject to the risk
that the other party will default on its contractual delivery obligations.
Currency swaps involve elements of risk in excess of the amount reflected in the
Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Changes in the value of the swap are
reported as unrealized appreciation or depreciation in the Statement of Assets
and Liabilities. A realized gain or loss is recorded upon early termination of
such agreement.
SECURITIES TRANSACTIONS, INVESTMENT INCOME, EXPENSES, DIVIDENDS AND
DISTRIBUTIONS: As is customary in the mutual fund industry, securities
transactions are recorded on a trade date basis. Interest income is accrued
daily except when collection is not expected. Dividend income and distributions
to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date except for certain
dividends from foreign securities, which are recorded as soon as the Trust is
informed after the ex-dividend date. The Trust amortizes premiums and accretes
discounts on fixed income securities, as well as those original issue discounts
for which amortization is required for federal income tax purposes; gains and
losses realized upon the sale of such securities are based on their identified
cost. Portfolios which earn foreign income and capital gains may be subject to
foreign withholding taxes at various rates.
Common expenses incurred by the Trust are allocated among the Portfolios based
upon relative net assets or other appropriate allocation methods. In all other
respects, expenses are charged to each Portfolio as incurred on a specific
identification basis.
The Portfolios record dividends and distributions to its shareholders on the
ex-dividend date. The amount of dividends and distributions from net investment
income and net realized capital gains are determined and presented in accordance
with federal income tax regulations, which may differ from generally accepted
accounting principles. These "book/tax" differences are either considered
temporary or permanent in nature. To the extent these differences are permanent
in nature, such amounts are reclassified within the capital accounts based on
their federal tax-basis treatment; temporary differences do not require
reclassification. Dividends and distributions which exceed net investment income
and net realized capital gains for financial reporting purposes but not for tax
purposes are reported as dividends in excess of net investment income or
distributions in excess of net realized capital gains. To the extent
distributions exceed current and accumulated earnings and profits for federal
income tax purposes, they are reported as distributions of paid-in capital. Net
investment income/loss, net realized gain/loss, and net assets were not
affected.

For the year ended November 30, 1997, the reclassification arising from
book/tax differences resulted in increases (decreases) to the components of net
assets as follows:

3. JOINT REPURCHASE AGREEMENT ACCOUNT: The Cash Management, High-Yield Bond,
SunAmerica Balanced and Aggressive Growth Portfolios, along with other
affiliated registered investment companies, transfer uninvested cash balances
into a single joint account, the daily aggregate balance of which is invested in
one or more repurchase agreements collateralized by U.S. Treasury or federal
agency obligations. As of November 30, 1997, the Cash Management, High-Yield
Bond, SunAmerica Balanced, and Aggressive Growth Portfolios had a 9.1%, 8.0%,
1.6% and 4.1%, undivided interest, respectively, which represented $13,341,000,
$11,659,000, $2,364,000 and $5,956,000, respectively, in principal amount in a
repurchase agreement in the joint account. As of such date, the repurchase
agreement in the joint account and the collateral therefore was as follows:
Paine Webber Securities, Inc. Repurchase Agreement, 5.625% dated 11/28/97, in
the principal amount of $146,239,000 repurchase price $146,307,550 due 12/1/97
collateralized by $50,000,000 U.S. Treasury Note 4.75% due 10/31/98, $1,230,000
U.S. Treasury Note 6.00% due 6/30/99, $45,440,000 U.S. Treasury Note 6.125% due
3/31/98, and $50,000,000 U.S. Treasury Note 7.125% due 2/29/00; approximate
aggregate value $149,228,325.
4. FEDERAL INCOME TAXES: The Trust intends to comply with the requirements of
the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies and
distribute all of its taxable income, including any net realized gain on
investments, to its shareholders. Therefore, no federal tax provision is
required.
The amounts of aggregate unrealized gain (loss) and the cost of investment
securities for book purposes, including short-term securities at November 30,
1997, were as follows:

5. MANAGEMENT OF THE TRUST: SunAmerica Asset Management Corp. ("SAAMCo" or the
"Adviser"), an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of the Life Company, serves as
investment adviser for all the portfolios of the Trust. The Trust, on behalf of
each Portfolio, entered into an Investment Advisory and Management Agreement
(the "Agreement") with SAAMCo to handle the Trust's day-to-day affairs. It is
the responsibility of the Adviser and, for certain Portfolios pursuant to
Subadvisory Agreements described below, the subadvisers, to make investment
decisions for the Portfolios and to place the purchase and sale orders for the
Portfolio transactions. Such orders may be directed to any broker including, in
the manner and to the extent permitted by applicable law, affiliates of the
Adviser or a subadviser. The Agreement provides that SAAMCo shall administer the
Trust's business affairs; furnish offices, necessary facilities and equipment;
provide clerical, bookkeeping and administrative services; and permit any of its
officers or employees to serve, without compensation, as trustees or officers of
the Trust, if duly elected to such positions. There is no subadviser for the
Cash Management, High-Yield Bond, SunAmerica Balanced and Aggressive Growth
Portfolios, and SAAMCo, therefore performs all investment advisory services for
these Portfolios. The term "Assets", as used in the following table, means the
average daily net assets of the Portfolios.
The Trust pays SAAMCo a monthly fee calculated at the following annual
percentages of each Portfolio's assets:

Item 27. Indemnification.
Article VI of the Registrant's By-Laws relating to the indemnification
of officers and trustees is quoted below:
ARTICLE VI
INDEMNIFICATION
The Trust shall provide any indemnification required by
applicable law and shall indemnify trustees, officers, agents and
employees as follows:
(a) the Trust shall indemnify any director or officer of the Trust who
was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party of any
threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether
civil, criminal, administrative or investigative (other than action by
or in the right of the Trust) by reason of the fact that such Person
is or was such Trustee or officer or an employee or agent of the
Trust, or is or was serving at the request of the Trust as a director,
officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint
venture, Trust or other enterprise, against expenses (including
attorneys' fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement
actually and reasonably incurred by such Person in connection with
such action, suit or proceeding, provided such Person acted in good
faith an in a manner such Person reasonably believed to be in or not
opposed to the best interests of the Trust, and, with respect to any
criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe such
Person's conduct was unlawful. The termination of any action, suit or
proceeding by judgment, order, settlement, conviction or upon a plea
of nolo contendere or its equivalent, shall not, of itself, create a
presumption that the Person did not reasonably believe his or her
actions to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Trust,
and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had reasonable
cause to believe that such Person's conduct was unlawful.
C-3
<PAGE> 64
(b) The Trust shall indemnify any Trustee or officer of the Trust who
was or is a part or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened,
pending or completed action or suit by or in the right of the Trust to
procure a judgment in its favor by reason of the fact that such Person
is or was such Trustee or officer or an employee or agent of the Trust,
or is or was serving at the request of the Trust as a director,
officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint
venture, Trust or other enterprise, against expenses (including
attorneys' fees), actually and reasonably incurred by such Person in
connection with the defense or settlement of such action or suit if
such Person acted in good faith and in a manner such Person reasonably
believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Trust,
except that no indemnification shall be made in respect of any claim,
issue or matter as to which such Person shall have been adjudged to be
liable for negligence or misconduct in the performance of such Person's
duty to the Trust unless and only to the extent that the court in which
such action or suit was brought, or any other court having jurisdiction
in the premises, shall determine upon application that, despite the
adjudication of liability but in view of all circumstances of the case,
such Person is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity for such
expenses which such court shall deem proper.
(c) To the extent that a Trustee or officer of the Trust has been
successful on the merits or otherwise in defense of any action, suit
or proceeding referred to in subparagraphs (a) or (b) above or in
defense of any claim, issue or matter therein, such Person shall be
indemnified against expenses (including attorneys' fees) actually and
reasonably incurred by such Person in connection therewith, without
the necessity for the determination as to the standard of conduct as
provided in subparagraph (d).
(d) Any indemnification under subparagraph (a) or (b) (unless ordered
by a court) shall be made by the Trust only as authorized in the
specific case upon a determination that indemnification of the Trustee
or officer is proper in view of the standard of conduct set forth in
subparagraph (a) or (b). Such determination shall be made (i) by the
Board by a majority vote of a quorum consisting of Trustees who were
disinterested and not parties to such action, suit or proceedings, or
(ii) if such a quorum of disinterested Trustees so directs, by
independent legal counsel in a written opinion, and any determination
so made shall be conclusive and binding upon all parties.
(e) Expenses incurred in defending a civil or criminal action, writ
or proceeding may be paid by the Trust in advance
C-4
<PAGE> 65
of the final disposition of such action, suit or proceeding, as
authorized in the particular case, upon receipt of an undertaking by
or on behalf of the Trustee or officer to repay such amount unless it
shall ultimately be determined that such Person is entitled to be
indemnified by the Trust as authorized herein. Such determination
must be made by disinterested Trustees or independent legal counsel.
Prior to any payment being made pursuant to this paragraph, a majority
of quorum of disinterested, non-party Trustees of the Trust, or an
independent legal counsel in a written opinion, shall determine, based
on a review of readily available facts that there is reason to believe
that the indemnitee ultimately will be found entitled to
indemnification.
(f) Agents and employees of the Trust who are not Trustees or
officers of the Trust may be indemnified under the same standards and
procedures set forth above, in the discretion of the Board.
(g) Any indemnification pursuant to this Article shall not be deemed
exclusive of any other rights to which those indemnified may be
entitled and shall continue as to a Person who has ceased to be a
Trustee or officer and shall inure to the benefit of the heirs,
executors and administrators of such a Person.
(h) Nothing in the Declaration or in these By-Laws shall be deemed to
protect any Trustee or officer of the Trust against any liability to
the Trust or to its Shareholders to which such Person would otherwise
be subject by reason of willful malfeasance, bad faith, gross
negligence or reckless disregard of the duties involved in the conduct
of such Person's office.
(i) The Trust shall have power to purchase and maintain insurance on
behalf of any Person against any liability asserted against or
incurred by such Person, whether or not the Trust would have the power
to indemnify such Person against such liability under the provisions
of this Article. Nevertheless, insurance will not be purchased or
maintained by the Trust if the purchase or maintenance of such
insurance would result in the indemnification of any Person in
contravention of any rule or regulation and/or interpretation of the
Securities and Exchange Commission.

The Investment Advisory and Management Agreement provides that
in absence of willful misfeasance, bad faith, gross negligence or
reckless disregard of the duties involved in the conduct of office on
the part of the Investment Adviser (and
C-5
<PAGE> 66
its officers, directors, agents, employees, controlling persons,
shareholders and any other person or entity affiliated with the
Investment Adviser to perform or assist in the performance of its
obligations under each Agreement) the Investment Adviser shall not be
subject to liability to the Trust or to any shareholder of the Trust
for any act or omission in the course of, or connected with, rendering
services, including without limitation, any error of judgment or
mistake or law or for any loss suffered by any of them in connection
with the matters to which each Agreement relates, except to the extent
specified in Section 36(b) of the Investment Company Act of 1940
concerning loss resulting from a breach of fiduciary duty with respect
to the receipt of compensation for services. Certain of the
Subadvisory Agreements provide for similar indemnification of the
Subadviser by the Investment Adviser.
SunAmerica Inc., the parent of Anchor National Life Insurance
Company, provides, without cost to the Fund, indemnification of
individual trustees. By individual letter agreement, SunAmerica Inc.
indemnifies each trustee to the fullest extent permitted by law
against expenses and liabilities (including damages, judgments,
settlements, costs, attorney's fees, charges and expenses) actually
and reasonably incurred in connection with any action which is the
subject of any threatened, asserted, pending or completed action, suit
or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative, investigative
or otherwise and whether formal or informal to which any trustee was,
is or is threatened to be made a party by reason of facts which
include his being or having been a trustee, but only to the extent
such expenses and liabilities are not covered by insurance.
Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the
Securities Act of 1933, as amended, may be permitted to trustees,
officers and controlling persons of the Registrant pursuant to the
foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the Registrant has been advised
that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such
indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Act and
is therefore unenforceable. In the event that a claim for
indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by
the Registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a trustee, officer or
controlling person of the Registrant in the successful defense of any
action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such trustee, officer or
controlling person in connection with the securities being registered,
the Registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter
has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of
appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by
it
C-6
<PAGE> 67
is against public policy as expressed in the Act and will be governed
by the final adjudication of such issue.
