affirmative vote of a majority of the shares of each Series of the Fund,
effective May 1, 1997, the Management Agreement will replace the existing
Investment Advisory Agreement between the Fund and Century Investment Management
Co. last approved and continued by the Board of Trustees on May 2, 1996. In
addition, Century Life of America management has indicated that effective May 1,
1997 it will not continue its expense reimbursement agreement with the Fund,
