                                                  ----------------------

THIS  AGREEMENT  is between  American  Skandia  Investment  Services,  Incorporated  and  Prudential  Investments  LLC (the
"Investment Manager") and Marsico Capital Management, LLC  (the "Sub-Adviser").

                                                    W I T N E S S E T H
                                                    - - - - - - - - - -

WHEREAS,  American Skandia Advisor Funds, Inc. (the "Company") is a Maryland corporation  organized with one or more series
of shares and is registered as an open-end  management  investment  company  under the  Investment  Company Act of 1940, as
amended (the "ICA"); and

WHEREAS,  the  Investment  Manager and the  Sub-Adviser  each is an  investment  adviser  registered  under the  Investment
Advisers Act of 1940, as amended (the "Advisers Act"); and

WHEREAS,  the Board of Directors of the Company (the "Directors") have engaged the Investment  Manager to act as investment
manager for the ASAF Marsico Capital Growth Fund (the "Fund"),  one series of the Company,  under the terms of a management
agreement, dated May 1, 2003, with the Company (the "Management Agreement"); and

WHEREAS, the Investment Manager,  acting pursuant to the Management  Agreement,  wishes to engage the Sub-Adviser,  and the
Directors have approved the engagement of the Sub-Adviser,  to provide investment advice and other investment  services set
forth below.

NOW, THEREFORE, the Investment Manager and the Sub-Adviser agree as follows:

1.       Investment  Services.  The Sub-Adviser will formulate and implement a continuous  investment  program for the Fund
         --------------------
conforming to the investment  objective,  investment  policies and  restrictions of the Fund as set forth in the Prospectus
and  Statement  of  Additional  Information  of the Company as in effect  from time to time  (together,  the  "Registration
Statement"),  the  Articles  of  Incorporation  and  By-laws  of the  Company,  and  any  investment  guidelines  or  other
instructions  received by the  Sub-Adviser in writing from the Investment  Manager from time to time. Any amendments to the
foregoing  documents  will not be  deemed  effective  with  respect  to the  Sub-Adviser  until the  Sub-Adviser's  receipt
thereof.  The  appropriate  officers and  employees  of the  Sub-Adviser  will be available to consult with the  Investment
Manager,  the Company and the Directors at  reasonable  times and upon  reasonable  notice  concerning  the business of the
Company,  including  valuations of securities which are not registered for public sale, not traded on any securities market
or  otherwise  may be deemed  illiquid for  purposes of the ICA;  provided it is  understood  that the  Sub-Adviser  is not
responsible for daily pricing of the Fund's assets.

         Subject to the supervision and control of the Investment Manager,  which in turn is subject to the supervision and
control of the  Directors,  the  Sub-Adviser  in its  discretion  will  determine  which  issuers  and  securities  will be
purchased,  held, sold or exchanged by the Fund or otherwise  represented in the Fund's  investment  portfolio from time to
time and,  subject to the  provisions of paragraph 3 of this  Agreement,  will place orders with and give  instructions  to
brokers,  dealers and others for all such  transactions  and cause such  transactions  to be executed.  Custody of the Fund
will be maintained by a custodian bank (the  "Custodian") and the Investment  Manager will authorize the Custodian to honor
orders and  instructions  by employees of the Sub-Adviser  designated by the Sub-Adviser to settle  transactions in respect
of the Fund.  No assets may be withdrawn  from the Fund other than for  settlement  of  transactions  on behalf of the Fund
except upon the written  authorization  of  appropriate  officers of the Company who shall have been  certified  as such by
proper authorities of the Company prior to the withdrawal.

         The Sub-Adviser will not be responsible for the provision of  administrative,  bookkeeping or accounting  services
to the Fund except as specifically  provided herein,  as required by the ICA or the Advisers Act or as may be necessary for
the Sub-Adviser to supply to the Investment  Manager,  the Fund or the Fund's  shareholders the information  required to be
provided  by the  Sub-Adviser  hereunder.  Any  records  maintained  hereunder  shall  be the  property  of  the  Fund  and
surrendered promptly upon request.

         In furnishing  the services under this  Agreement,  the  Sub-Adviser  will comply with and use its best efforts to
enable  the  Fund to  conform  to the  requirements  of:  (i) the ICA and  the  regulations  promulgated  thereunder;  (ii)
Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code and the regulations  promulgated  thereunder;  (iii) other applicable  provisions
of state or federal law; (iv) the Articles of  Incorporation  and By-laws of the Company;  (v) policies and  determinations
of  the  Company  and  the  Investment  Manager  provided  to  the  Sub-Adviser  in  writing;   (vi)  the  fundamental  and
non-fundamental  investment policies and restrictions  applicable to the Fund, as set out in the Registration  Statement of
the Company in effect,  or as such  investment  policies  and  restrictions  from time to time may be amended by the Fund's
shareholders  or the Directors and  communicated  to the  Sub-Adviser in writing;  (vii) the  Registration  Statement;  and
(viii) investment  guidelines or other instructions  received in writing from the Investment  Manager.  Notwithstanding the
foregoing,  the Sub-Adviser shall have no  responsibility to monitor  compliance with limitations or restrictions for which
information  from the  Investment  Manager  or its  authorized  agents is  required  to enable the  Sub-Adviser  to monitor
compliance with such  limitations or restrictions  unless such  information is provided to the Sub-adviser in writing.  The
Sub-Adviser  shall  supervise and monitor the activities of its  representatives,  personnel and agents in connection  with
the investment program of the Fund.

         Nothing in this Agreement shall be implied to prevent the Investment  Manager from engaging other  sub-advisers to
provide  investment  advice  and other  services  to the Fund or to  series  or  portfolios  of the  Company  for which the
Sub-Adviser  does not provide such services,  or to prevent the Investment  Manager from providing such services  itself in
relation to the Fund or such other series or portfolios.  The Sub-Advisor and the Investment  Manager  understand and agree
that if the Investment  Manager  manages the Fund in a  "manager-of-managers"  style,  the Investment  Manager will,  among
other things, (i) continually  evaluate the performance of the Sub-Advisor  through  quantitative and qualitative  analysis
and consultations  with the Sub-Advisor,  (ii) periodically make  recommendations  to the Company's Board as to whether the
contract with one or more sub-advisors  should be renewed,  modified or terminated,  and (iii)  periodically  report to the
Company's  Board  regarding the results of its evaluation and monitoring  functions.  The  Sub-Advisor  recognizes that its
services may be terminated or modified pursuant to this process.

         The Sub-Advisor  acknowledges that the Investment Manager and the Company intend to rely on Rules 17a-10 and 10f-3
under the ICA, to the extent  applicable,  and the  Sub-Advisor  hereby  agrees  that it shall not  consult  with any other
Sub-Advisor to the Fund or the Company with respect to  transactions  in securities  for the Fund's  portfolio or any other
transactions of Fund assets.  The Sub-Advisor  further  acknowledges  that it shall not consult with any other  sub-advisor
of the  Fund  that is a  principal  underwriter  or an  affiliated  person  of a  principal  underwriter  with  respect  to
transactions  in securities  for the Fund's  portfolio or any other  transactions  of Fund assets,  and that its investment
advisory  responsibilities  as set forth in this Agreement are limited to such discrete  portion of the Fund's portfolio as
determined by the Investment Manager.

         The  Sub-Adviser  shall be responsible  for the preparation and filing of Schedule 13-G and Form 13-F on behalf of
the Fund. The  Sub-Adviser  shall not be  responsible  for the  preparation or filing of any other reports  required of the
Fund by any governmental or regulatory agency, except as expressly agreed in writing.

2.       Investment  Advisory  Facilities.  The  Sub-Adviser,  at  its  expense,  will  furnish  all  necessary  investment
         --------------------------------
facilities, including salaries of personnel, required for it to execute its duties hereunder.

3.       Execution of Fund  Transactions.  In connection  with the investment and  reinvestment  of the assets of the Fund,
         -------------------------------
the Sub-Adviser is responsible for the selection of  broker-dealers  to execute purchase and sale transactions for the Fund
in conformity  with the policy  regarding  brokerage as set forth in the  Registration  Statement,  or as the Directors may
determine  from  time  to  time,  as  well  as  the  negotiation  of  brokerage   commission   rates  with  such  executing
broker-dealers.   Generally,  the  Sub-Adviser's  primary  consideration  in  placing  Fund  investment  transactions  with
broker-dealers  for execution  will be to obtain,  and maintain the  availability  of, best execution at the best available
price.

         Consistent with this policy, the Sub-Adviser,  in selecting  broker-dealers and negotiating  brokerage  commission
rates,  will take all relevant factors into  consideration,  including,  but not limited to: the best price available;  the
reliability,  integrity and financial  condition of the  broker-dealer;  the size of and difficulty in executing the order;
and the value of the expected  contribution of the broker-dealer to the investment  performance of the Fund on a continuing
basis.  Subject to such policies and procedures as the Directors may determine,  the  Sub-Adviser  shall have discretion to
effect investment transactions for the Fund through broker-dealers  (including,  to the extent permissible under applicable
law,  broker-dealers  affiliated with the Sub-Adviser)  qualified to obtain best execution of such transactions who provide
brokerage and/or research services,  as such services are defined in section 28(e) of the Securities  Exchange Act of 1934,
as amended (the "1934 Act"), and to cause the Fund to pay any such  broker-dealers  an amount of commission for effecting a
portfolio  investment  transaction  in excess of the amount of  commission  another  broker-dealer  would have  charged for
effecting that  transaction,  if the  Sub-Adviser  determines in good faith that such amount of commission is reasonable in
relation to the value of the  brokerage  or research  services  provided by such  broker-dealer,  viewed in terms of either
that particular  investment  transaction or the Sub-Adviser's  overall  responsibilities with respect to the Fund and other
accounts as to which the Sub-Adviser  exercises  investment  discretion (as such term is defined in section 3(a)(35) of the
1934 Act).  Allocation of orders placed by the  Sub-Adviser on behalf of the Fund to such  broker-dealers  shall be in such
amounts and proportions as the Sub-Adviser  shall  determine in good faith in conformity  with its  responsibilities  under
applicable  laws,  rules and  regulations.  The  Sub-Adviser  will submit  reports on such  allocations  to the  Investment
Manager  regularly  as  requested  by the  Investment  Manager,  in such form as may be  mutually  agreed to by the parties
hereto, indicating the broker-dealers to whom such allocations have been made and the basis therefor.

         Subject to the foregoing  provisions of this paragraph 3, the Sub-Adviser may also consider sales of shares of the
Fund, or may consider  recommendations  of the  Investment  Manager that takes such sales into  account,  as factors in the
selection  of  broker-dealers  to effect the Fund's  investment  transactions.  Notwithstanding  the above,  nothing  shall
require the  Sub-Adviser to use a  broker-dealer  which  provides  research  services or to use a particular  broker-dealer
which the Investment Manager has recommended.

4.       Reports by the Sub-Adviser.  The Sub-Adviser  shall furnish the Investment  Manager monthly,  quarterly and annual
         --------------------------
reports,  in such form as may be mutually agreed to by the parties hereto,  concerning  transactions and performance of the
Fund, including  information required in the Registration  Statement or information necessary for the Investment Manager to
review the Fund or discuss  the  management  of it. The  Sub-Adviser  shall  permit the books and records  maintained  with
respect to the Fund to be inspected and audited by the Company,  the Investment  Manager or their respective  agents at all
reasonable times during normal business hours upon reasonable  notice.  The Sub-Adviser shall  immediately  notify both the
Investment  Manager and the  Company of any legal  process  served upon it in  connection  with its  activities  hereunder,
including any legal process served upon it on behalf of the Investment  Manager,  the Fund or the Company.  The Sub-Adviser
shall  promptly  notify the  Investment  Manager  of any  changes  in any  information  regarding  the  Sub-Adviser  or the
investment program for the Fund as described in the Registration Statement.

5.       Compensation  of the  Sub-Adviser.  The amount of the  compensation  to the  Sub-Adviser  is computed at an annual
         ---------------------------------
rate.  The fee shall be payable  monthly in arrears,  based on the average daily net assets of the Fund for each month,  at
the annual rate set forth in Exhibit A to this Agreement.

         In computing the fee to be paid to the  Sub-Adviser,  the net asset value of the Fund shall be valued as set forth
in the  Registration  Statement.  If this Agreement is terminated,  the payment  described  herein shall be prorated to the
date of termination.

         The  Investment  Manager and the  Sub-Adviser  shall not be  considered  as partners  or  participants  in a joint
venture.  The  Sub-Adviser  will pay its own expenses for the services to be provided  pursuant to this  Agreement and will
not be  obligated  to pay  any  expenses  of  the  Investment  Manager,  the  Fund  or the  Company.  Except  as  otherwise
specifically  provided herein, the Investment  Manager,  the Fund and the Company will not be obligated to pay any expenses
of the Sub-Adviser.

6.       Delivery of  Documents to the  Sub-Adviser.  The  Investment  Manager has  furnished  the  Sub-Adviser  with true,

Investment  Manager.  Such  amendments or  supplements  as to item (i) above will be provided not later than the end of the
business  day next  following  the date  such  amendments  or  supplements  become  known to the  Investment  Manager.  Any

Manager's receipt thereof.  The Sub-Adviser will provide  additional  information as the Investment  Manager may reasonably
request in connection with the Sub-Adviser's performance of its duties under this Agreement.

8.       Confidential  Treatment.  The parties hereto  understand  that any information or  recommendation  supplied by the
         -----------------------

only by the Investment  Manager,  the Company or such persons the Investment  Manager may designate in connection  with the

provide investment advice and other services to the Fund.

9.       Representations  of the Parties.  Each party hereto hereby further  represents and warrants to the other that: (i)
         -------------------------------
it is  registered as an  investment  adviser under the Advisers Act and is registered or licensed as an investment  adviser
under the laws of all  jurisdictions in which its activities  require it to be so registered or licensed;  and (ii) it will
use its  reasonable  best efforts to maintain each such  registration  or license in effect at all times during the term of
this  Agreement;  and (iii) it will promptly  notify the other if it ceases to be so  registered,  if its  registration  is
suspended for any reason,  or if it is notified by any regulatory  organization or court of competent  jurisdiction that it
should show cause why its  registration  should not be suspended or  terminated;  and (iv) it is duly  authorized  to enter
into this Agreement and to perform its obligations hereunder.

         The Sub-Adviser  further  represents that it has adopted a written Code of Ethics in compliance with Rule 17j-1(b)
of the ICA.  The  Sub-Adviser  shall be  subject  to such Code of  Ethics,  and shall not be  subject  to any other Code of
Ethics,  including  the  Investment  Manager's  Code  of  Ethics,  unless  specifically  adopted  by the  Sub-Adviser.  The
Investment  Manager further  represents and warrants to the Sub-Adviser  that (i) the appointment of the Sub-Adviser by the
Investment  Manager  has been duly  authorized  and (ii) it has  acted  and will  continue  to act in  connection  with the
transactions  contemplated hereby, and the transactions  contemplated hereby are, in conformity with the ICA, the Company's
governing documents and other applicable law.

10.      Liability.  In the absence of willful  misfeasance,  bad faith,  gross  negligence  or reckless  disregard for its
         ---------
obligations  hereunder,  the  Sub-Adviser  shall not be liable to the Company,  the Fund,  the Fund's  shareholders  or the
Investment  Manager  for any act or  omission  resulting  in any  loss  suffered  by the  Company,  the  Fund,  the  Fund's
shareholders  or the  Investment  Manager in  connection  with any service to be provided  herein.  The Federal laws impose
responsibilities  under certain circumstances on persons who act in good faith, and therefore,  nothing herein shall in any
way constitute a waiver or limitation of any rights which the Company,  the Fund or the  Investment  Manager may have under
applicable law.

11.      Other  Activities of the Sub-Adviser.  The Investment  Manager agrees that the Sub-Adviser and any of its partners
         ------------------------------------
or employees,  and persons  affiliated  with the  Sub-Adviser or with any such partner or employee,  may render  investment
management or advisory  services to other investors and  institutions,  and that such investors and  institutions  may own,
purchase or sell,  securities  or other  interests in property  that are the same as,  similar to, or different  from those
which are selected for  purchase,  holding or sale for the Fund.  The  Investment  Manager  further  acknowledges  that the
Sub-Adviser  shall be in all respects free to take action with respect to investments  in securities or other  interests in
property that are the same as,  similar to, or different  from those  selected for purchase,  holding or sale for the Fund.
The Investment  Manager  understands that the Sub-Adviser shall not favor or disfavor any of the  Sub-Adviser's  clients or
class of clients in the allocation of investment  opportunities,  so that to the extent practical,  such opportunities will
be  allocated  among  the  Sub-Adviser's  clients  over a period of time on a fair and  equitable  basis.  Nothing  in this
Agreement  shall impose upon the  Sub-Adviser  any  obligation  (i) to purchase or sell, or recommend for purchase or sale,
for the Fund any security  which the  Sub-Adviser,  its  partners,  affiliates  or  employees  may purchase or sell for the
Sub-Adviser  or such  partner's,  affiliate's  or  employee's  own  accounts or for the account of any other  client of the
Sub-Adviser,  advisory or  otherwise,  or (ii) to abstain from the  purchase or sale of any security for the  Sub-Adviser's
other clients,  advisory or otherwise,  which the Investment  Manager has placed on the list provided pursuant to paragraph
6(i) of this Agreement.

12.      Continuance  and  Termination.  This  Agreement  shall  remain in full force and effect for one year from the date
         -----------------------------
hereof,  and is  renewable  annually  thereafter  by  specific  approval of the  Directors  or by vote of a majority of the
outstanding  voting  securities of the Fund.  Any such renewal shall be approved by the vote of a majority of the Directors
who are not  interested  persons  under  the ICA,  cast in person at a meeting  called  for the  purpose  of voting on such
renewal.  This Agreement may be terminated  without penalty at any time by the Investment  Manager or the Sub-Adviser  upon
60 days written  notice,  and will  automatically  terminate in the event of (i) its  "assignment"  by either party to this
Agreement,  as such term is  defined in the ICA,  subject  to such  exemptions  as may be  granted  by the  Securities  and
Exchange  Commission by rule,  regulation or order,  or (ii) upon  termination  of the Management  Agreement,  provided the
Sub-Adviser has received prior written notice thereof.

13.      Notification.  The  Sub-Adviser  will notify the Investment  Manager within a reasonable time of any change in the
         ------------
personnel of the Sub-Adviser with  responsibility  for making investment  decisions in relation to the Fund (the "Portfolio
Manager(s)") or who have been authorized to give  instructions to the Custodian.  The Sub-adviser  shall be responsible for
reasonable  out-of-pocket  costs and  expenses  incurred  by the  Investment  Manager,  the Fund or the Company to amend or
supplement  the Company's  prospectus to reflect a change in Portfolio  Manager(s) or otherwise to comply with the ICA, the
Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "1933 Act") or any other applicable statute,  law, rule or regulation,  as a result
of such change;  provided,  however,  that the  Sub-Adviser  shall not be responsible for such costs and expenses where the
change in Portfolio  Manager(s)  reflects the  termination of employment of the Portfolio  Manager(s)  with the Sub-Adviser
and its  affiliates or is the result of a request by the  Investment  Manager or is due to other  circumstances  beyond the
Sub-Adviser's control.

         Any notice,  instruction or other  communication  required or  contemplated by this Agreement shall be in writing.
All such  communications  shall be addressed to the  recipient at the address set forth below,  provided  that either party
may, by notice, designate a different recipient and/or address for such party.
