Dear Ladies and Gentlemen:
As Deputy General Counsel of American General Retirement Services and
counsel to AGA, as the depositor for the Registrant and on behalf of the
Registrant, pursuant to Rule 497(j) under the Securities Act of 1933 ("1933
Act"), Registrant has elected to file the certification set out below in lieu
of electronically filing definitive copies of the prospectus contained in its
most recent amendment to its Form N-4 Registration Statement ("Amendment"), as
required by Rule 497(c) under the 1933 Act and as provided by Rule 309(b) of
Regulation S-T.
Registrant certifies that:
(1) the form of prospectus that would have been filed under
paragraph (c) of Rule 497 under the 1933 Act following the
filing of the Amendment would not have been different from
that contained in the Amendment, and
(2) the Amendment, which is designated as Post-Effective Amendment
No. 10 under the 1933 Act, was filed electronically on
November 3, 2000.
Please direct any inquiry regarding the foregoing to the undersigned
at (713) 831-1230.
Very truly yours,
/S/ PAULETTA P. COHN
