NOTES ON PERFORMANCE

Total Returns

Performance of the AXA Premier VIP Trust Portfolios as shown on the following pages compares each Portfolio’s performance to that of a broad-based securities index. Each of the Portfolio’s annualized rates of return is net of investment management fees and expenses of the Portfolio. Rates of return are not representative of the actual return you would receive under your variable life insurance policy or annuity contract. No policyholder or contract holder can invest directly in the AXA Premier VIP Trust Portfolios. Changes in policy values depend not only on the investment performance of the AXA Premier VIP Trust Portfolios, but also on the insurance and administrative charges, applicable sales charges, and the mortality and expense risk charge applicable under a policy. These policy charges effectively reduce the dollar amount of any net gains and increase the dollar amount of any net losses.

Each of the AXA Premier VIP Trust Portfolios has a separate investment objective it seeks to achieve by following a separate investment policy. There is no guarantee that these objectives will be attained. The objectives and policies of each Portfolio will affect its return and its risk. Keep in mind that past performance is not an indication of future results.

Growth of $10,000 Investment

The charts shown on the following pages illustrate the total value of an assumed investment in both Class A and Class B shares of each Portfolio of the AXA Premier VIP Trust. The periods illustrated are from the inception dates shown through December 31, 2005. These results assume reinvestment of dividends and capital gains. The total value shown for each Portfolio reflects management fees and operating expenses of the Portfolios and 12b-1 fees which are applicable only to Class B shares. They have not been adjusted for insurance-related charges and expenses associated with life insurance policies or annuity contracts, which would lower the total values shown. Results should not be considered representative of future gains or losses.

The Benchmarks

Broad-based securities indices are unmanaged and are not subject to fees and expenses typically associated with actively-managed funds. Investment cannot be made directly in a broad-based securities index. Comparisons with these benchmarks, therefore, are of limited use. They are included because they are widely known and may help you to understand the universe of securities from which each Portfolio is likely to select its holdings.

Conservative Allocation Index

The Conservative Allocation Index is a hypothetical combination of unmanaged indices. The composite index combines the total return of the S&P 500 and the Lehman Brothers Aggregate Bond Index at a weighting of 20% and 80%, respectively.

Conservative-Plus Allocation Index

The Conservative-Plus Allocation Index is a hypothetical combination of unmanaged indices. The composite index combines the total return of the S&P 500 and the Lehman Brothers Aggregate Bond Index at a weighting of 40% and 60%, respectively.

Moderate Allocation Index

The Moderate Allocation Index is a hypothetical combination of unmanaged indices. The composite index combines the total return of the S&P 500 and the Lehman Brothers Aggregate Bond Index at a weighting of 50% and 50%, respectively.

Moderate-Plus Allocation Index

The Moderate-Plus Allocation Index is a hypothetical combination of unmanaged indices. The composite index combines the total return of the S&P 500, the Morgan Stanley Capital International EAFE Index and the Lehman Brothers Aggregate Bond Index at a weighting of 60%, 15% and 25%, respectively.

In December 2005 the Trustees of the AXA Moderate-Plus Allocation Portfolio approved a change in the weighting of the composite index to 50% S&P 500, 30% Lehman Brothers Aggregate Bond Index and 20% Morgan Stanley Capital International EAFE Index.

Aggressive Allocation Index

The Aggressive Allocation Index is a hypothetical combination of unmanaged indices. The composite index combines the total return of the S&P 500, the Morgan Stanley Capital International EAFE Index and the Lehman Brothers Aggregate Bond Index at a weighting of 75%, 15% and 10%, respectively.

In December 2005, the Trustees of the Aggressive Allocation Portfolio approved a change in the weighting of the composite index to 65% S&P 500, 10% Lehman Brothers Aggregate Bond Index and 25% Morgan Stanley Capital International (MSCI) EAFE Index.

PERFORMANCE SUMMARY

The Portfolio’s Class A shares returned 2.78% for the year ending December 31, 2005. The Portfolio’s benchmark, the Conservative Allocation Index, returned 2.98% over the same period.

Portfolio Adviser

A team of professionals within the AXA Funds Management Group, a unit of AXA Equitable Life Insurance Company, determines the strategic asset class and underlying fund allocations for the Portfolio. The team is also responsible for the ongoing evaluation and selection of underlying funds and monitoring the overall investment process and performance for the Portfolio.

Portfolio Highlights

For the year ending December 31, 2005

As of December 31, 2005, the Portfolio was invested in 13 underlying EQAT and AXA Premier VIP Portfolios. These included 7 equity funds and 6 fixed income funds. The Portfolio’s fixed income allocation consisted of investment grade bonds (73.1%) and high yield bonds (5.7%). The Portfolio’s equity allocation consisted of large cap growth stocks (6.4%), large cap value stocks (10.1%), and small and mid cap stocks (4.8%).

The year ended December 31, 2005, proved to be a challenging environment for both domestic equity and fixed income markets. Broad market benchmarks such as the S&P 500 Index and the Lehman Brothers Aggregate Bond Index, advanced by only 4.91% and 2.43%, respectively, over the period. The Portfolio’s performance over this same time, while also modest, was broad-based and all of the Portfolio’s underlying categories contributed positively to overall returns. The leading contributor to the Portfolio’s performance was its allocation across high quality, fixed income bond sectors, including its investments in the AXA Premier VIP Core Bond, EQ/Alliance Quality Bond, and EQ/Short Duration bond underlying funds. The leading equity contributors to the Portfolio’s performance were the EQ/Marsico Focus and EQ/Bernstein Diversified Value underlying funds.

UNDERSTANDING YOUR EXPENSES:

As a shareholder of the Portfolio, you incur two types of costs:

(1) transaction costs, including applicable sales charges and redemption fees; and (2)ongoing costs, including management fees, distribution (12b-1) fees (in the case of Class B shares of the Trust), and other Portfolio expenses. These examples are intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Portfolio and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds.

The examples are based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the six-month period ended December 31, 2005 and held for the entire six-month period.

Actual Expenses

The first line of the table to the right provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this line, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the number in the first line under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.

Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes

The second line of the table below provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Portfolio’s actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Portfolio’s actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the Portfolio and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds.

Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs, such as sales charges (loads), redemption fees, or exchange fees. Therefore, the second line of the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. In addition, if these transactional costs were included, your costs would have been higher.

Past performance is not indicative of future results.

On August 15, 2003, the EQ/Balanced Portfolio was reorganized into the AXA Moderate Allocation Portfolio. Prior that date, the predecessor fund invested directly in securities, rather that pursuing a “Fund of Funds” investment approach.

PERFORMANCE SUMMARY

The Portfolio’s Class A shares returned 5.06% for the year ending December 31, 2005. The Portfolio’s benchmark, the Moderate Allocation Index, returned 3.76% over the same period.

Portfolio Adviser

A team of professionals within the AXA Funds Management Group, a unit of AXA Equitable Life Insurance Company, determines the strategic asset class and underlying fund allocations for the Portfolio. The team is also responsible for the ongoing evaluation and selection of underlying funds and monitoring the overall investment process and performance for the Portfolio.

Portfolio Highlights

For the year ending December 31, 2005

As of December 31, 2005, the Portfolio was invested in 16 underlying EQAT and AXA Premier VIP Portfolios. These included 10 equity funds and 6 fixed income funds. The Portfolio’s fixed income allocation consisted of investment grade bonds (43.9%) and high yield bonds (5.4%). The Portfolio’s equity allocation consisted of large cap growth stocks (15.0%), large cap value stocks (17.7%), and small and mid cap stocks (18.0%).

The year ended December 31, 2005, proved to be a challenging environment for both domestic equity and fixed income markets. Broad market benchmarks such as the S&P 500 Index and the Lehman Brothers Aggregate Bond Index, advanced by only 4.91% and 2.43%, respectively, over the period. The Portfolio’s performance over this same time fared moderately better and all of the Portfolio’s underlying categories contributed positively to overall returns. The leading contributors to the Portfolio’s performance were investments in the large cap growth equity category, including the EQ/Marsico Focus, EQ/Alliance Large Cap Growth, and AXA Premier VIP Aggressive Equity underlying funds, all of which performed well on an absolute and relative basis. The AXA Premier VIP Mid Cap Value underlying fund also made a meaningful contribution, as mid cap value stocks outperformed large-cap and small-cap value stocks over the period. In fixed income, the Portfolio’s performance benefited from its allocation to both the investment grade and high yield bonds sectors.

Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs, such as sales charges (loads), redemption fees, or exchange fees. Therefore, the second line of the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. In addition, if these transactional costs were included, your costs would have been higher.

PERFORMANCE SUMMARY

The Portfolio’s Class A shares returned 6.97% for the year ending December 31, 2005. The Portfolio’s benchmark, the Moderate-Plus Allocation Index, returned 5.64% over the same period.

Portfolio Adviser

A team of professionals within the AXA Funds Management Group, a unit of AXA Equitable Life Insurance Company, determines the strategic asset class and underlying fund allocations for the Portfolio. The team is also responsible for the ongoing evaluation and selection of underlying funds and monitoring the overall investment process and performance for the Portfolio.

Portfolio Highlights

For the year ending December 31, 2005

As of December 31, 2005, the Portfolio was invested in 18 underlying EQAT and AXA Premier VIP Portfolios. These included 14 equity funds and 4 fixed income funds. The Portfolio’s fixed income allocation consisted of investment grade bonds (28.8%). The Portfolio’s equity allocation consisted of large cap growth stocks (14.8%), large cap value stocks (18.0%), international stocks (21.4%) and small and mid cap stocks (17.0%).

The year ended December 31, 2005, proved to be a challenging environment for both domestic equity and fixed income markets. Broad market benchmarks such as the S&P 500 Index and the Lehman Brothers Aggregate Bond Index, advanced by only 4.91% and 2.43%, respectively, over the period. International equity returns, however, surpassed their U.S. counterparts by a healthy margin. Equity markets in “developed” countries, as measured by the performance of the MSCI EAFE Index, had a total return of 13.54% over the period.

The Portfolio’s performance over this same time benefited from the strong performance of the international equity markets, though all of the Portfolio’s underlying categories contributed positively to overall returns. The leading domestic equity contributor to the Portfolio’s performance was investments in the large cap growth equity category, including the EQ/ Marsico Focus, EQ/Alliance Large Cap Growth, and AXA Premier VIP Aggressive Equity underlying funds, all of which performed well on an absolute and relative basis. The AXA Premier VIP Mid Cap Value underlying fund also made a meaningful contribution, as mid cap value stocks outperformed large-cap and small-cap value stocks over the period. In fixed income, the Portfolio’s performance benefited from its allocation to both the investment grade and high yield bonds sectors. The overall leading contributor to the Portfolio’s performance was its allocation to international equity. All of the underlying international equity holdings contributed to performance, led by an allocation to the AXA Premier VIP International Equity underlying fund.

UNDERSTANDING YOUR EXPENSES :

As a shareholder of the Portfolio, you incur two types of costs:

(1) transaction costs, including applicable sales charges and redemption fees; and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees, distribution (12b-1) fees (in the case of Class B shares of the Trust), and other Portfolio expenses. These examples are intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Portfolio and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds.

The examples are based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the six-month period ended December 31, 2005 and held for the entire six-month period.

Actual Expenses

The first line of the table to the right provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this line, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the number in the first line under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.

Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes

The second line of the table below provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Portfolio’s actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Portfolio’s actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the Portfolio and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds.

Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs, such as sales charges (loads), redemption fees, or exchange fees. Therefore, the second line of the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. In addition, if these transactional costs were included, your costs would have been higher.

PERFORMANCE SUMMARY

The Portfolio’s Class A shares returned 8.44% for the year ending December 31, 2005. The Portfolio’s benchmark, the Russell 3000 Growth Index, returned 5.17% over the same period.

The following commentary describes key factors (such as stock selection and sector allocation decisions) which helped or hurt the Portfolio’s performance relative to its benchmark, the Russell 3000 Growth Index.

Portfolio Highlights

For the year ending December 31, 2005

What helped performance during the year

 

  Stock selection in the Information Technology sector was the largest contributor to relative performance. Key holdings in this sector were Google, Broadcom Corp. and IBM.

 

  In Financial Services, Chicago Mercantile Exchange, Goldman Sachs Group and AIG Insurance were among the top contributors to relative performance.

 

  Among the largest individual contributors to the Portfolio’s annual returns were Health Care companies, including biotechnology firm Genentech and health services provider UnitedHealth Group.

 

  An overweighted position relative to benchmark in Consumer Discretionary holding Amazon also benefited Portfolio performance during the year.

What hurt performance during the year

 

  Stock selection in the Consumer Discretionary sector was the largest detractor from relative performance. An overweight position in the sector relative to benchmark also detracted. Positions in hotel operator Four Seasons Hotel, eBAY and XM Satellite Radio were among the top detractors from the Portfolio’s annual performance.

 

  An underweight position in Pfizer relative to the benchmark was the largest individual detractor from performance for the year.

 

  An underweighted posture in the Energy sector, a strong performing area of investment for the benchmark, dampened performance.

 

  Although stock selection in Information Technology yielded positive relative performance, several individual stocks in the sector detracted from results. These included overweight positions in Shanda Interactive Entertainment, Electronic Arts, Juniper Networks and Symantec Corp.

Portfolio Highlights

For the year ending December 31, 2005

What helped performance during the year

 

  Yield curve positioning had a positive impact on portfolio performance.

 

  An underweight in corporates was positive as corporates lagged amid widening credit premiums.

 

  A tactical allocation to non-U.S. bonds was positive as most government bond markets outside the U.S. outperformed. Economic growth was generally slower and rate increases milder outside the U.S.

 

  An allocation to emerging market bonds was positive. Emerging markets was the best performing fixed income sector for the year as investors continued to be drawn to improving credit fundamentals within the asset class.

 

  Municipal securities helped returns. Municipals outperformed as Treasury rates increased.

What hurt performance during the year

 

  An underweight in Agencies contributed negatively to performance.

 

  Currency exposure to the yen and euro, as relatively high U.S. rates supported the dollar, detracted from performance.

The following commentary describes key factors (such as stock selection and sector allocation decisions) which helped or hurt the Portfolio’s performance relative to its benchmark, the Russell 1000 Health Care Index.

Portfolio Highlights

For the year ending December 31, 2005

What helped performance during the year

 

  Stock selection in Health Care Equipment and Supplies, Pharmaceuticals, and Health Care Providers and Services all contributed positively to performance.

 

  Underweight positions relative to benchmark in Pharmaceutical holdings Pfizer Inc. and Johnson & Johnson were the largest individual holding contributors. Overweights in Pharmaceutical holdings Roche, Eisai and Astrazeneca and an underweight in Bristol Myers Squibb were also notable contributors.

 

  Overweights in Pacificare Health Systems and Health Net Inc. in the Health Care Providers and Services sector were also positive contributors.

What hurt performance during the year

 

  Stock selection in the Biotechnology sector hurt performance, particularly overweight positions in QLT Inc. and Amgen and underweight positions in Genentech and OSI Pharmaceuticals.

 

  A large underweight relative to benchmark in the Health Care Providers and Services sector detracted from performance.

 

  Overweight positions in Pharmaceutical holdings Elan PLC and Forest Labs and an underweight position in UnitedHealth Group also detracted from performance.

UNDERSTANDING YOUR EXPENSES :

As a shareholder of the Portfolio, you incur two types of costs:

(1) transaction costs, including applicable sales charges and redemption fees; and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees, distribution (12b-1) fees (in the case of Class B shares of the Trust), and other Portfolio expenses. These examples are intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Portfolio and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds.

The examples are based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the six-month period ended December 31, 2005 and held for the entire six-month period.

Actual Expenses

The first line of the table to the right provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this line, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the number in the first line under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.

Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes

The second line of the table below provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Portfolio’s actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Portfolio’s actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the Portfolio and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds.

Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs, such as sales charges (loads), redemption fees, or exchange fees. Therefore, the second line of the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. In addition, if these transactional costs were included, your costs would have been higher.

PERFORMANCE SUMMARY

The Portfolio’s Class A shares returned 3.26% for the year ending December 31, 2005. The Portfolio’s benchmark, the Merrill Lynch U.S. High Yield Master Cash Pay Only Index, returned 2.83% over the same period.

Portfolio Highlights

For the year ending December 31, 2005

What helped performance during the year

 

  An underweight in ‘BB’ bonds, which underperformed ‘B’ issues, added to performance.

 

  An overweight in Telecommunications with an emphasis on large-cap fixed line companies also contributed.

 

  An allocation to emerging market bonds was positive for the Portfolio, as investors continued to be drawn to their improving credit fundamentals.

What hurt performance during the year

 

  Exposure to the ‘BBB’ rated sector, which lagged the overall high yield market, detracted from performance.

 

  Also detracting was exposure to low-to-mid rated electric generation companies within the Utility sector.

 

  An underweight in the Finance/Insurance sector hurt performance, as these bonds were among the best performers.

The following commentary describes key factors (such as stock selection and sector allocation decisions) which helped or hurt the Portfolio’s performance relative to its benchmark, the MSCI EAFE Index.

Portfolio Highlights

For the year ending December 31, 2005

What helped performance during the year

 

  Stock selection in the Energy sector was the largest relative contributor to performance for the year.

 

  Stock selection in Financials (overweight positions in Japanese holdings Sumitomo Mitsui, Leopalace 21 Corp., ORIX Corp.) and Telecommunication Services (overweight position in Mexican holding America Movil S.A.) aided performance during the year.

 

  In the Telecommunication Services sector, an underweight position relative to benchmark also helped performance.

 

  In the Materials sector, holding Mexican firm Cemex S.A. also assisted performance.

What hurt performance during the year

 

  Individual holdings were the key performance detractors, including overweight positions in French companies Thomson and JC DeCaux S.A. and Japanese company Trend Micro, Inc. Not holding Japanese companies Mizuho Financial Group and Softbank Corp. also detracted from performance.

 

  An underweight position relative to benchmark in the Industrials sector was also a notable detractor from performance for the year.

The following commentary describes key factors (such as stock selection and sector allocation decisions) which helped or hurt the Portfolio’s performance relative to its benchmark, the Russell 1000 Growth Index.

Portfolio Highlights

For the year ending December 31, 2005

What helped performance during the year

 

  Stock selection in the Health Care, Information Technology and Financials sectors contributed to annual performance.

 

  Contributing Health Care holdings included Genentech, Alcon, Gilead Sciences, Teva Pharmaceutical and Amgen.

 

  Information Technology contributors included Google, Marvell Technology Group, Apple Computers, Broadcom Corp and not holding IBM.

 

  The Financials sector positive performers included Progressive Corp. and Legg Mason.

 

  The only sectors contributing positively to performance were an underweight position in Consumer Staples and an overweight position in Financials.

What hurt performance during the year

 

  Stock selection in the Consumer Discretionary, Industrials and Energy sectors detracted from annual performance.

 

  Detracting Consumer Discretionary holdings included eBAY, XM Satellite Radio, Apollo Group and Harley Davidson.

 

  Although stock selection in Information Technology was positive overall, certain individual holdings detracted from performance. These included Network Appliance Inc., Dell, Symantec Corp, Electronic Arts, Juniper Networks, and an underweight position in Texas Instruments.

 

  Health Care holdings Elan PLC (overweight relative to benchmark) and Pfizer (underweight) also detracted from performance.

 

  An underweight position in the Health Care sector and an overweight position in the Consumer Discretionary sector were negative.

Simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the number in the first line under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.

Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes

The second line of the table below provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Portfolio’s actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Portfolio’s actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the Portfolio and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds.

Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs, such as sales charges (loads), redemption fees, or exchange fees. Therefore, the second line of the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. In addition, if these transactional costs were included, your costs would have been higher.

PERFORMANCE SUMMARY

The Portfolio’s Class A shares returned 7.37% for the year ending December 31, 2005. The Portfolio’s benchmark, the Russell 1000 Value Index, returned 7.05% over the same period.

The following commentary describes key factors (such as stock selection and sector allocation decisions) which helped or hurt the Portfolio’s performance relative to its benchmark, the Russell 1000 Value Index.

Portfolio Highlights

For the year ending December 31, 2005

What helped performance during the year

 

  Security selection within the Energy sector contributed to results. Overweighting Energy firms Halliburton (not held by the benchmark), ConocoPhillips, Marathon Oil and Occidental Petroleum benefited the Portfolio.

 

  A slight underweight for the year in the Energy sector also contributed to results, even though the sector was a strong performer in 2005.

 

  In Health Care, underweighting weak performing pharmaceutical giant Pfizer bolstered performance as that stock underperformed the benchmark. An overweight position in Consumer Staples firm Altria Group added to results.

 

  In some sectors, weighting differences contributed positively to performance. Underweights in Energy and Telecommunication Services and overweights in Industrials, Health Care and Information Technology all helped performance.

What hurt performance during the year

 

  Stock selection among the Industrials and Materials sectors detracted from results. In the Industrial sector, overweight positions in Tyco International and Cendant Corp. were the leading detractors.

 

  Within other sectors, holding underperforming mortgage giant Fannie Mae negatively impacted performance. Health Care holding Boston Scientific and Consumer Staples holding Avon Products (not benchmark constituents) also detracted from results. Not participating in the substantial run up in the shares of Energy firm Burlington Resources was detrimental to results.

 

  An underweight position in the Utilities sector was also a detractor from performance.

UNDERSTANDING YOUR EXPENSES:

As a shareholder of the Portfolio, you incur two types of costs:

(1) transaction costs, including applicable sales charges and redemption fees; and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees, distribution (12b-1) fees (in the case of Class B shares of the Trust), and other Portfolio expenses. These examples are intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Portfolio and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds.

The examples are based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the six-month period ended December 31, 2005 and held for the entire six-month period.

Actual Expenses

The first line of the table to the right provides information about actual account values and actual expenses.

The following commentary describes key factors (such as stock selection and sector allocation decisions) which helped or hurt the Portfolio’s performance relative to its benchmark, the Russell Mid Cap Growth Index.

Portfolio Highlights

For the year ending December 31, 2005

What helped performance during the year

 

  Stock selection in the Energy, Industrials and Financials sectors all contributed to performance for the year. CB Richard Ellis Group led the way in Financials. Overweights in Energy holdings Spinnaker Exploration, National Oilwell Varco and Grant Prideco Inc. also added to performance.

 

  An overweight position relative to benchmark in the Energy sector and an underweight position in the Financials sector were positive contributors.

 

  Other individual contributors included NII Holdings Inc., Macromedia Inc. and not holding Lexmark International.

What hurt performance during the year

 

  Stock selection in the Health Care and Consumer Discretionary sectors detracted from performance. Detractors in Health Care included underweights in Celgene Corp., Express Scripts Inc. and Wellpoint Inc. An overweight in Petco Animal Supplies was the leading Consumer Discretionary detractor.

 

  An overweight position in the Information Technology sector subtracted value.

 

  Overweight positions in Information Technology holdings Avocent Corp., Flir Systems, Inc. and Alliance Data Systems also detracted.

Portfolio Highlights

For the year ending December 31, 2005

What helped performance during the year

 

  Stock selection in the Industrials sector was the leading contributor to performance for the year, led by York International Corp., a position not held by the benchmark.

 

  Leading individual holding contributions came from stocks not held in the benchmark, including National Semiconductor and Endo Pharmaceuticals. An overweight position relative to benchmark in Arch Coal and not holding Delphi Corp. also aided performance.

 

  Overweight positions in the Health Care and Industrials sectors and underweights in the Consumer Staples and Financials sectors also added to performance.

What hurt performance during the year

 

  Stock selection in the Health Care and Materials Care sectors was a leading detractor from performance for the year, although no single holding in either sector stood out.

 

  An overweight position in the Consumer Discretionary sector detracted from performance.

 

  Not holding Energy sector companies Valero Energy Corp, Marathon Oil Corp. and Unocal Corp. was a major detractor from performance, as these holdings all performed well for the benchmark.

 

  Financial holding Doral Financial Corp., a position not held by the benchmark, was also a notable detractor.

 

  Overweight positions in Information Technology stocks Lexmark International, Teradyne Inc. and Vishay Intertechnology were also detrimental to performance.

Portfolio Highlights

For the year ending December 31, 2005

What helped performance during the year

  Stock selection in Computers & Peripherals was also strong, led by SanDisk Corp., Dell, Inc. and IBM.

 

  Software sector holding Red Hat Inc. was a notable contributor.

 

  Strong stock selection contributions also came from the Communications Equipment, Software, and Semiconductor & Semiconductor Equipment sectors.

What hurt performance during the year

 

  The leading detractor from annual performance was stock selection in the Internet Software & Services sector, including holding VeriSign, Inc.

 

  Underweight positions in Hewlett-Packard Co. and Apple Computer, Inc. led individual holding detractors. Overweight positions in eBAY and Elan PLC were also negative.

 

  Stock selection in Internet & Catalog Retail was also a notable detractor.

These examples are intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Portfolio and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds.

Actual Expenses

The first line of the table to the right provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this line, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the number in the first line under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.

Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes

The second line of the table below provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Portfolio’s actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Portfolio’s actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the Portfolio and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds.

Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs, such as sales charges (loads), redemption fees, or exchange fees. Therefore, the second line of the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds.

AXA PREMIER VIP TRUST

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

December 31, 2005

Note 1 Organization and Selected Significant Accounting Policies

AXA Premier VIP Trust (the “Trust”) was organized as a Delaware business trust on October 2, 2001 and is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”), as an open-end management investment company with nine diversified Portfolios and seven non-diversified Portfolios (each a “Portfolio”). The non-diversified Portfolios are: AXA Conservative Allocation Portfolio, AXA Conservative-Plus Allocation Portfolio, AXA Moderate Allocation Portfolio, AXA Moderate-Plus Allocation Portfolio, AXA Aggressive Allocation Portfolio, AXA Premier VIP Health Care Portfolio, and AXA Premier VIP Technology Portfolio. The investment manager to each Portfolio is AXA Equitable Life Insurance Company (“AXA Equitable” or the “Manager”). The day-to-day portfolio management of each Portfolio, other than the AXA Conservative Allocation Portfolio, AXA Conservative-Plus Allocation Portfolio, AXA Moderate Allocation Portfolio, AXA Moderate-Plus Allocation Portfolio and AXA Aggressive Allocation Portfolio (“AXA Allocation Portfolios”), is provided by multiple investment sub-advisers (each an “Adviser”).

Under the Trust’s organizational documents, its officers and trustees are indemnified against certain liabilities arising out of the performance of their duties to the Trust. In addition, in the normal course of business, the Trust enters into contracts with their vendors and others that provide for general indemnifications. The Trust’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Trust. However, based on experience, the Trust and management expect that risk of loss to be remote.

The AXA Allocation Portfolios are types of mutual funds often described as “fund of funds.” Each AXA Allocation Portfolio pursues its investment objective by investing exclusively in other mutual funds managed by AXA Equitable (EQ Advisors Trust).

All of the Portfolios, except the AXA Allocation Portfolios, employ multiple Advisers. Each of the Advisers independently chooses and maintains a portfolio of securities for the Portfolio and each is responsible for investing a specific allocated portion of the Portfolio’s assets. Because each Adviser will be managing its allocated portion of the Portfolio independently from the other Advisers, the same security may be held in different portions of the Portfolio, or may be acquired for one portion of the Portfolio at a time when the Adviser of another portion deems it appropriate to dispose of the security. Similarly, under some market conditions, one Adviser may believe that temporary defensive investments in short-term instruments or cash are appropriate when the other Adviser or Advisers believe continued exposure to the equity markets is appropriate for their portions of the Portfolio. Because each Adviser directs the trading for its own portion of the Portfolio, and does not aggregate its transactions with those of the other Advisers, the Portfolio may incur higher brokerage costs, and have higher portfolio turnover, than would be the case if a single Adviser were managing the entire Portfolio.

The Trust has the right to issue two classes of shares, Class A and Class B. The Class B shares are subject to distribution fees imposed under a distribution plan (“Distribution Plan”) adopted pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act. Under the Trust’s multiple class distribution system, both classes of shares have identical voting, dividend, liquidation and other rights, other than the payment of distribution fees under the Distribution Plan. The Trust’s shares are currently sold only to insurance company separate accounts in connection with variable life insurance contracts and variable annuity certificates and contracts issued by AXA Equitable, an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of AXA, AXA Life and Annuity Company (“ALAC”), MONY Life Insurance Company (“MONY”) and MONY Life Insurance Company of America (“MONY America”), as well as insurance companies that are not affiliated with AXA Equitable, ALAC, MONY or MONY America and to The Investment Plan for Employees, Managers and Agents. The Investment Plan for Employees, Managers and Agents is the primary shareholder of Class A for the AXA Aggressive Allocation Portfolio, AXA Premier VIP Health Care Portfolio, AXA Premier VIP Large Cap Growth Portfolio and AXA Premier VIP Technology Portfolio.

The investment objectives of each Portfolio are as follows:

AXA Conservative Allocation Portfolio — Seeks to achieve a high level of current income.

The following is a summary of the selected significant accounting policies of the Trust:

The preparation of financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts and disclosures. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Valuation:

Stocks listed on national securities exchanges are valued at the last sale price or official closing price on the date of valuation or, if there is no sale or official closing price, at the latest available bid price.

 

144


AXA PREMIER VIP TRUST

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)

December 31, 2005

Other unlisted stocks are valued at their last sale price or official closing price or, if no reported sale occurs during the day, at a bid price estimated by a broker. Securities listed on the NASDAQ exchange will be valued using the NASDAQ Official Closing Price (“NOCP”). Generally, the NOCP will be the last sale price unless the reported trade for the security is outside the range of the bid/ask price. In such cases, the NOCP will be normalized to the nearer of the bid or ask price.

Convertible preferred stocks listed on national securities exchanges or included on the NASDAQ stock market are valued as of their last sale price or, if there is no sale, at the latest available bid price. Convertible bonds and unlisted convertible preferred stocks are valued at bid prices obtained from one or more of the major dealers in such securities. Where there is a discrepancy between dealers, values may be adjusted based on recent premium spreads to the underlying common stocks. Convertible bonds may be matrix-priced based upon the conversion value to the underlying common stocks and market premiums.

Mortgage-backed and asset-backed securities are valued at prices obtained from a bond pricing service where available, or at a bid price obtained from one or more of the major dealers in such securities. If a quoted price is unavailable, an equivalent yield or yield spread quote will be obtained from a broker and converted to a price.

Options, including options on futures that are traded on exchanges, are valued at their last sale price, and if the last sale price is not available then the previous day’s sale price is used. Options not traded on an exchange or actively traded are valued at fair value under the direction of the Board of Trustees (“Trustees”).

Long-term corporate bonds may be valued on the basis of prices provided by a pricing service when such prices are believed to reflect the fair market value of such securities. The prices provided by a pricing service take into account many factors, including institutional size, trading in similar groups of securities and any developments related to specific securities; however, when such prices are unavailable, such bonds will be valued using broker quotes.

U.S. Treasury securities and other obligations issued or guaranteed by the U.S. Government, its agencies or instrumentalities, are valued at representative quoted prices.

Foreign securities, including foreign government securities, not traded directly, or in American Depositary Receipt (ADR) or similar form in the United States, are valued at representative quoted prices from the primary exchange in the currency of the country of origin.

Short-term investments which mature in 60 days or less are valued at amortized cost, which approximates market value. Short-term investments, which mature in more than 60 days, are valued at representative quoted prices.

Futures contracts are valued at their last sale price or, if there is no sale, at the latest available bid price.

Forward foreign exchange contracts are valued by interpolating between the forward and spot currency rates as quoted by a pricing service as of a designated hour on the valuation date.

Other securities and assets for which market quotations are not readily available or for which valuation can not be provided, are valued at fair value under the direction of the Trustees.

Investments in the AXA Allocation Portfolios are valued based on the net asset value per share of each underlying fund, which follow the policies as described above.

Pursuant to procedures approved by the Trustees, events or circumstances affecting the values of portfolio securities that occur between the closing of their principal markets and the time the net asset value is determined may be reflected, as by a method approved by the Trustees, in the Trust’s calculation of net asset values for each applicable Portfolio when the Trust’s Manager deems that the particular event or circumstance would materially affect such Portfolio’s net asset value.

AXA PREMIER VIP TRUST

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)

December 31, 2005

Securities transactions are recorded on the trade date net of brokerage fees, commissions, and transfer fees. Dividend income and distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Interest income (including amortization of premium and discount on long-term securities using the effective yield method) is accrued daily.

Realized gains and losses on the sale of investments are computed on the basis of the specific identification method of the investments sold. Unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on investments and foreign currency denominated assets and liabilities is presented net of deferred taxes on unrealized gains in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities.

Expenses attributable to a single Portfolio or class are charged to that Portfolio or class. Expenses of the Trust not attributable to a single Portfolio or class are charged to each Portfolio or class in proportion to the average net assets of each Portfolio or other appropriate allocation methods.

All income earned and expenses incurred by each Portfolio are borne on a pro-rata basis by each outstanding class of shares, based on the proportionate interest in the Portfolio represented by the daily net assets of such class, except for distribution fees which are charged on a class specific basis.

Foreign Currency Valuation:

The books and records of the Trust are kept in U.S. dollars. Foreign currency amounts are translated into U.S. dollars at current exchange rates at the following dates:

 

  (i) market value of investment securities, other assets and liabilities - at the valuation date.

 

  (ii) purchases and sales of investment securities, income and expenses - at the date of such transactions.

The Portfolios do not isolate that portion of the results of operations resulting from changes in foreign exchange rates on investments from the fluctuations arising from changes in market prices of securities held. Such fluctuations are included with the net realized and unrealized gain or loss on securities.

Net currency gains or losses realized and unrealized as a result of differences between interest or dividends, withholding taxes, forward foreign currency exchange contracts and foreign cash recorded on the Portfolio’s books and the U.S. dollar equivalent amount actually received or paid are presented under foreign currency transactions in the realized and unrealized gains and losses section of the Statements of Operations. Net realized gains (losses) on foreign currency transactions represent net foreign exchange gains (losses) from forward foreign currency contracts, disposition of foreign currencies, currency gains or losses realized between the trade and settlement dates on securities transactions, and the difference between the amount of investment income and foreign withholding taxes recorded on a Portfolio’s books and the U.S. dollar equivalent of amounts actually received or paid.

Taxes:

The Trust intends to comply with the requirements of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (“Code”) applicable to regulated investment companies and to distribute substantially all of its net investment income and net realized capital gains to shareholders of each Portfolio. Therefore, no Federal income tax provision is required. Dividends from net investment income are declared and distributed at least annually for all Portfolios. Dividends from net realized short-term and long-term capital gains are declared and distributed at least annually to the shareholders of the Portfolios to which such gains are attributable. All dividends are reinvested in additional full and fractional shares of the related Portfolios. All dividends are distributed on a tax basis and, as such, the amounts may differ from financial statement investment income and realized capital gains. Those differences are primarily due to differing book and tax treatments for organization costs, forward foreign currency transactions, losses due to wash sales transactions, mark-to-market of forward contracts, mark-to-market of passive foreign investment companies and straddle transactions. In addition, short-term capital gains and foreign currency gains are treated as capital gains for accounting (book) purposes but are considered ordinary income for tax purposes. Net capital and net currency losses incurred after October 31 and within the taxable year are deemed to arise on the first business day of the Portfolio’s next taxable year.

Fees Paid Indirectly:

For all Portfolios, the Board of Trustees has approved the payment of certain Trust expenses using brokerage service arrangements. These payments are reflected on the Statements of Operations. For the year ended December 31, 2005, several Portfolios reduced expenses under these arrangements as follows:

Securities Lending:

For all Portfolios, the Board of Trustees has approved the lending of portfolio securities, through its custodian bank, JPMorgan Chase Bank (“JPMorgan”), acting as lending agent, to certain approved broker-dealers in exchange for negotiated lenders’ fees. By lending investment securities, a Portfolio attempts to increase its net investment income through the receipt of interest on the cash equivalents held as collateral on the loan. Any gain or loss in the market price of the securities loaned that might occur and any interest earned or dividends declared during the term of the loan would be for the account of the Portfolio. Risks of delay in recovery of the securities or even loss of rights in the collateral may occur should the borrower of the securities fail financially. Risks may also arise to the extent that the value of the securities loaned increases above the value of the collateral received. Any such loan of Portfolio securities will be continuously secured by collateral in cash or high grade debt securities at least equal at all times to the market value of the security loaned. JPMorgan will indemnify each Portfolio from any loss resulting from a borrower’s failure to return a loaned security when due. JPMorgan invests the cash collateral on behalf of the Portfolios and retains a portion of the interest earned. The net amount of interest earned, after the interest rebate, is included in the Statements of Operations as securities lending income. At December 31, 2005, the cash collateral received by each Portfolio for securities loaned was invested by JPMorgan and is summarized in the Portfolio of Investments. Each Portfolio has an individual interest equal to the amount of cash collateral contributed.

Repurchase Agreements:

Certain Portfolios may enter into repurchase agreements with qualified and Manager approved banks, broker-dealers or other financial institutions as a means of earning a fixed rate of return on their cash reserves for periods as short as overnight. A repurchase agreement is a contract pursuant to which a Portfolio, against receipt of securities of at least equal value including accrued interest, agrees to advance a specified sum to the financial institution which agrees to reacquire the securities at a mutually agreed upon time (usually one day) and price. Each repurchase agreement entered into by a Portfolio will provide that the value of the collateral underlying the repurchase agreement will always be at least equal to the repurchase price, including any accrued interest. A Portfolio’s right to liquidate such securities in the event of a default by the seller could involve certain costs, losses or delays and, to the extent that proceeds from any sale upon a default of the obligation to repurchase are less than the repurchase price, the Portfolio could suffer a loss.

AXA PREMIER VIP TRUST

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)

December 31, 2005

Options Written:

Certain Portfolios may write (sell) covered options as a hedge to provide protection against adverse movements in the price of securities in the portfolio or to enhance investment performance. Certain Portfolios may purchase and sell exchange traded options on foreign currencies. When a Portfolio writes an option, an amount equal to the premium received by the Portfolio is recorded as a liability and is subsequently adjusted on a daily basis to the current market price of the option written. Premiums received from writing options which expire unexercised are recognized as gains on the expiration date. Premiums received from writing options which are exercised or are canceled in closing purchase transactions are offset against the cost of any securities purchased or added to the proceeds or netted against the amount paid on the transaction to determine the realized gain or loss. In writing options, a Portfolio must assume that the option may be exercised at any time prior to the expiration of its obligation as a writer, and that in such circumstances the net proceeds of the sale or cost of purchase of the underlying securities and currencies pursuant to the call or put option may be substantially below or above the prevailing market price. By writing a covered call option, a Portfolio, in exchange for the premium, foregoes the opportunity for capital appreciation above the exercise price should the market price of the underlying security increase. A Portfolio also has the additional risk of not being able to enter into a closing purchase transaction if a liquid secondary market does not exist and bears the risk of unfavorable changes in the price of the financial instruments underlying the options. The Portfolios, however, are not subject to credit risk on written options as the counterparty has already performed its obligation by paying the premium at the inception of the contract.

Short Sales Against the Box:

Certain Portfolios may enter into a “short sale” of securities in circumstances in which, at the time the short position is open, the Portfolio owns at least an equal amount of the securities sold short or owns preferred stocks or debt securities, convertible or exchangeable without payment of further consideration, into at least an equal number of securities sold short. This kind of short sale, which is referred to as one “against the box,” may be entered into by the Portfolio to, for example, lock in a sale price for a security the Portfolio does not wish to sell immediately. The Portfolio will designate the segregation, either on its records or with the Trust’s custodian, of the securities sold short or convertible or exchangeable preferred stocks or debt securities sold in connection with short sales against the box. Not more than 10% of a Portfolio’s net assets may be held as collateral for short sales against the box at any one time. Liabilities for securities sold short are reported at market value in the financial statements. Such liabilities are subject to off-balance sheet risk to the extent of any future increases in market value of the securities sold short. The ultimate liability for securities sold short could exceed the liabilities recorded in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. The Portfolio bears the risk of potential inability of the broker to meet their obligation to perform.

Futures Contracts, Options on Futures Contracts, Forward Commitments and Foreign Currency Exchange Contracts:

The futures contracts and options on futures contracts used by the Portfolios are agreements to buy or sell a financial instrument for a set price in the future. Certain Portfolios may buy or sell futures contracts and options on futures contracts for the purpose of protecting their portfolio securities against future changes in interest rates and indices which might adversely affect the value of the Portfolios’ securities or the price of securities that it intends to purchase at a later date. Initial margin deposits are made upon entering into futures contracts and options on futures contracts and can be in cash, certain money market instruments, treasury securities or other liquid, high grade debt securities. During the period the futures contracts and options on futures contracts are open, changes in the market price of the contracts are recognized as unrealized gains or losses by “marking-to-market” at the end of each trading day. Variation margin payments on futures contracts and options on futures contracts are received or made, depending upon whether unrealized gains or losses are incurred. When the contract is closed, the Portfolio records a realized gain or loss equal to the difference between the proceeds from (or cost of) the closing transactions and the Portfolio’s basis in the contract. Should interest rates or indices move unexpectedly,

AXA PREMIER VIP TRUST

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)

December 31, 2005

the Portfolio may not achieve the anticipated benefits of the futures contracts and may incur a loss. The use of futures contracts transactions involves the risk of imperfect correlation in movements in the price of futures contracts, interest rates and the underlying hedged assets. Use of long futures contracts subjects the Portfolios to risk of loss in excess of the amounts shown on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities, up to the notional value of the futures contracts. Use of short futures contracts subjects the Portfolios to unlimited risk of loss. The Portfolios enter into futures contracts only on exchanges or boards of trade. The exchange or board of trade acts as the counterparty to each futures transaction, therefore, the Portfolio’s credit risk is limited to failure of the exchange or board of trade.

Certain Portfolios may make contracts to purchase or sell securities for a fixed price at a future date beyond customary settlement time (“forward commitments”) if they designate the segregation, either on their records or with the Trust’s custodian, of cash or other liquid securities in an amount sufficient to meet the purchase price, or if they enter into offsetting contracts for the forward sale of other securities they own. These commitments are reported at market value in the financial statements. Forward commitments may be considered securities in themselves and involve a risk of loss if the value of the security to be purchased declines or if the value of the security to be sold increases prior to the settlement date, which is risk in addition to the risk of decline in value of the Portfolio’s other assets. Where such purchases or sales are made through dealers, a Portfolio relies on the dealer to consummate the sale. The dealer’s failure to do so may result in the loss to a Portfolio of an advantageous yield or price. Market risk exists on these commitments to the same extent as if the securities were owned on a settled basis and gains and losses are recorded and reported in the same manner. However, during the commitment period, these investments earn no interest or dividends.

Certain Portfolios may purchase foreign currency on a spot (or cash) basis. In addition, certain Portfolios may enter into contracts to purchase or sell foreign currencies at a future date (“forward contracts”). A forward foreign currency exchange contract is a commitment to purchase or sell a foreign currency at a future date at a negotiated forward rate. Daily fluctuations in the value of such contracts are recognized as unrealized appreciation or depreciation by “marking to market.” The gain or loss arising from the difference between the original contracts and the closing of such contracts is included in realized gains or losses from foreign currency transactions in the Statement of Operations. The Advisers may engage in these forward contracts to protect against uncertainty in the level of future exchange rates in connection with the purchase and sale of Portfolio securities (“transaction hedging”) and to protect the value of specific portfolio positions (“position hedging”). The Portfolios are subject to off-balance sheet risk to the extent of the value of the contracts for purchase of foreign currency and in an unlimited amount for sales of foreign currency.

Swaps:

Certain Portfolios may invest in swap contracts, which are derivatives in the form of a contract or other similar instrument which is an agreement to exchange the return generated by one instrument for the return generated by another instrument. The payment streams are calculated by reference to a specified index and agreed upon notional amount. A Portfolio will usually enter into swaps on a net basis, i.e., the two return streams are netted out in a cash settlement on the payment date or dates specified in the instrument, with the Portfolio receiving or paying, as the case may be, only the net amount of the two returns. A Portfolio’s obligations under a swap agreement will be accrued daily (offset against any amounts owing to the Portfolio) and any accrued but unpaid net amounts owed to a swap counterparty will be covered by designating the segregation, either on its records or with the Trust’s custodian, of cash or other liquid obligations. A Portfolio will not enter into any swap agreement unless the counterparty meets the rating requirements set forth in guidelines established by the Trust’s Board of Trustees. Swap agreements are stated at market value on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Swaps are marked-to-market daily based upon quotations from market makers and the change, if any, is recorded as unrealized appreciation or depreciation in the Statement of Operations. A realized gain or loss is recorded upon payment or receipt of a periodic payment or termination of swap agreements. Notional principal amounts are used to express the extent of involvement in these transactions, but the amount potentially subject to credit risk is much smaller.

AXA PREMIER VIP TRUST

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)

December 31, 2005

Dollar Roll Transactions:

Certain Portfolios may enter into dollar roll transactions with financial institutions to take advantage of opportunities in the mortgage market. A dollar roll transaction involves a sale by a Portfolio of securities with a simultaneous agreement to repurchase substantially similar securities at an agreed-upon price at a future date. The securities repurchased will bear the same interest rate as those sold, but generally will be collateralized by different pools of mortgages with different prepayment histories. Dollar roll transactions involve the risk that the market value of the securities sold by the Portfolio may decline below the repurchase price of the similar securities. None of the Portfolios had dollar roll transactions outstanding at December 31, 2005.

Market and Credit Risk:

Written options, futures contracts, forward commitments, forward foreign currency exchange contracts and swaps involve elements of both market and credit risk in excess of the amounts reflected in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities. The risk involved in writing an option on a security is that, if the option is exercised, the underlying security is then purchased or sold by the Portfolio at the contract price, which could be disadvantageous relative to the market price. The Portfolio bears the market risk, which arises from any changes in security values. The credit risk for futures contracts and exchange traded options is limited to failure of the exchange or board of trade which acts as the counterparty to the Portfolio’s futures transactions. Forward commitments, forward foreign currency exchange contracts, over-the-counter options and swaps are done directly with the counterparty and not through an exchange and can be terminated only by agreement of both parties to such contracts. With respect to such transactions there is no daily margin settlement and the Portfolio is exposed to the risk of default by the counterparty.

Note 2 Management of the Trust

The Trust has entered into two separate investment management agreements (the “Management Agreements”) with AXA Equitable. The Management Agreement for the Portfolios (other than the AXA Allocation Portfolios) obligates the Manager to: (i) provide investment management services to the Trust; (ii) select the sub-advisers for each portfolio: (iii) monitor each sub-adviser’s investment programs and results; (iv) review brokerage matters: (v) oversee the Trust’s compliance with various federal and state statutes; and (vi) carry out the directives of the Board of Trustees. The Management Agreement for the AXA Allocation Portfolios obligates the Manager to: (i) provide investment management and advisory services; (ii) render investment advice concerning the underlying portfolios in which to invest and the appropriate allocations for each of the AXA Allocation Portfolios; (iii) review brokerage matters; (iv) oversee the Trust’s compliance with various federal and state statutes; and (v) carry out the directives of the Board of Trustees. For the year ended December 31, 2005, for its services under the Management Agreements, the Manager was entitled to receive an annual fee as a percentage of average daily net assets, for each of the following Portfolios, calculated daily and payable monthly as follows:

On behalf of the Trust, the Manager has entered into investment advisory agreements (“Advisory Agreements”) with each of the Advisers. Each of the Advisory Agreements obligates the Advisers for the respective Portfolios to: (i) continuously furnish investment programs for the Portfolios; (ii) place all orders for the purchase and sale of investments for the Portfolios with brokers or dealers selected by the Manager or the respective Advisers; and (iii) perform certain limited related administrative functions in connection therewith. The Manager pays the expenses of providing investment advisory services to the Portfolios, including the fees of the Advisers of each Portfolio.

Note 3 Administrative Fees

Pursuant to an administrative agreement, AXA Equitable (“Administrator”) provides the Trust with necessary administrative services. In addition, the Administrator makes available the office space, equipment, personnel and facilities required to provide such administrative services to the Trust. For these administrative services, the Trust pays AXA Equitable a fee at an annual rate of 0.15% of the Trust’s total average net assets plus $35,000 per Portfolio and an additional $35,000 for each portion of the Portfolio for which separate administrative services are provided (e.g., portions of a Portfolio allocated to separate Advisers and/or managed in a discrete style).

Pursuant to a sub-administration arrangement with AXA Equitable, J.P. Morgan Investors Services Co. (“Sub-administrator”) provides the Trust with administrative services, including monitoring of portfolio compliance and portfolio accounting services.

Note 4 Custody Fees

JPMorgan, an affiliate of J.P. Morgan Investors Services Co., serves as custodian of the Trust’s portfolio securities and other assets. The Custody Agreement provides for an annual fee based on the amount of assets under custody plus transaction charges. Under the terms of the Custody Agreement between the Trust and JPMorgan, JPMorgan maintains cash, securities and other assets of the Portfolios. JPMorgan is also required, upon the order of the Trust, to deliver securities held by JPMorgan, and make payments for securities purchased by the Trust. JPMorgan has also entered into sub-custodian agreements with a number of foreign banks and clearing agencies, pursuant to which portfolio securities purchased outside the U.S. are maintained in the custody of these entities.

Note 5 Distribution Plans

The Trust has entered into distribution agreements with AXA Advisors, LLC (“AXA Advisors”) and AXA Distributors, LLC (“AXA Distributors”), both indirect wholly-owned subsidiaries of AXA Equitable (collectively, the “Distributors”), pursuant to which the Distributors serve as the principal underwriters of the Class A and Class B shares of the Trust. The Trust has adopted in the manner prescribed under Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act a plan of distribution pertaining to the Class B shares of the Trust (“Distribution Plan”). The Distribution Plan provides that each Distributor will be entitled to receive a maximum distribution fee at the annual rate of 0.50% of the average daily net assets attributable to the Trust’s Class B shares for which it provides service. The distribution agreements, however, limit payments for services provided under the Distribution Plan to an annual rate of 0.25% of the average daily net assets attributable to the Trust’s Class B shares. The Trust’s Class A shares are not subject to such fees.

Note 6 Expense Limitation

Pursuant to a contract, AXA Equitable has agreed to make payments or waive its fees to limit the expenses of certain Portfolios through April 30, 2006 (“Expense Reimbursement Agreement”). The Manager first waives its management fees, then waives its administration fees, and then reimburses the Portfolio’s expenses out of its own resources. AXA Equitable may be reimbursed the amount of any such payments and waivers in the future provided that the payments and waivers are reimbursed within three years of the payment or waiver being made and the combination of the Portfolio’s expense ratio and such reimbursements do not exceed the Portfolio’s expense ratio cap. If the actual expense ratio is less than the expense cap and AXA Equitable has recouped any eligible previous payments and waivers made, the Portfolio will be charged such lower expenses. The expenses as a percentage of daily average net assets (excluding the 0.25% annual fee under the Trust’s Class B Distribution Plan) for each Portfolio are limited to:

During the year ended December 31, 2005, the Manager received $1,168,918 in recoupments for all of the Portfolios within the Trust. These recoupments in excess of waivers during the year are presented as Recoupment Fees in the Statement of Operations. At December 31, 2005, under the Expense Limitation Agreement, the amount that would be recoverable from each Portfolio is as follows:

The AXA Allocation Portfolios invest exclusively in shares of other mutual funds (the “Underlying Portfolios”) managed by AXA Equitable. Therefore, each AXA Allocation Portfolio, in addition to its own expenses such as management fees, bears its pro-rata share of the fees and expenses incurred by the Underlying Portfolios and the investment return of each AXA Allocation Portfolio is reduced by each Underlying Portfolio’s expenses. The range of expenses (as a percentage of average net assets) incurred indirectly in connection with each AXA Allocation Portfolio’s investments in Underlying Portfolios is:

 

Portfolios:

  

Range of Expenses

AXA Conservative Allocation

  

0.50% to 0.75%

AXA Conservative-Plus Allocation

  

0.55% to 0.80%

AXA Moderate Allocation

  

0.65% to 0.90%

AXA Moderate-Plus Allocation

  

0.80% to 1.05%

AXA Aggressive Allocation

  

0.85% to 1.10%

Thus, the net expense ratio of the Class A shares and the Class B shares of each AXA Allocation Portfolio, including the AXA Allocation Portfolio’s direct and indirect expenses, would range from:

 

Portfolios:

  

Class A

  

Class B

AXA Conservative Allocation

  

0.60% to 0.85%

  

0.85% to 1.10%

AXA Conservative-Plus Allocation

  

0.65% to 0.90%

  

0.90% to 1.15%

AXA Moderate Allocation

  

0.75% to 1.00%

  

1.00% to 1.25%

AXA Moderate-Plus Allocation

  

0.90% to 1.15%

  

1.15% to 1.40%

AXA Aggressive Allocation

  

0.95% to 1.20%

  

1.20% to 1.45%

Absent the Expense Limitation Agreement of the Allocation Portfolios, the total expense ratio of the Class A shares and the Class B shares of each AXA Allocation Portfolio would range from:

 

Portfolios:

  

Class A

  

Class B

AXA Conservative Allocation

  

0.82% to 1.07%

  

1.07% to 1.32%

AXA Conservative-Plus Allocation

  

0.84% to 1.09%

  

1.09% to 1.34%

AXA Moderate Allocation

  

0.92% to 1.17%

  

1.17% to 1.42%

AXA Moderate-Plus Allocation

  

1.07% to 1.32%

  

1.32% to 1.57%

AXA Aggressive Allocation

  

1.14% to 1.39%

  

1.39% to 1.64%

The above Allocation Portfolio information is based on a weighted-average range of the expense ratios since the average assets of each AXA Allocation Portfolio invested in Underlying Portfolios will fluctuate. The total expense ratios may be higher or lower depending on the allocation of an AXA Allocation Portfolio’s assets among Underlying Portfolios and the actual expenses of the Underlying Portfolios. An investor could realize lower overall expenses by allocating investments directly to the Underlying Portfolios.

EQ/ Technology Portfolio’s net assets at that date ($322,650,717) were combined with those of AXA Premier VIP Technology Portfolio. The aggregate net assets of AXA Premier VIP Technology Portfolio and EQ/ Technology Portfolio immediately before the reorganizations were $136,349,958 and $322,650,717, respectively, resulting in combined net assets of $459,000,675.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

To the Board of Trustees of AXA Premier VIP Trust:

In our opinion, the accompanying statements of assets and liabilities, including the portfolios of investments, and the related statements of operations and of changes in net assets and the financial highlights present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the 16 portfolios constituting the AXA Premier VIP Trust (the “Trust”) at December 31, 2005, the results of each of its operations for the year then ended, the changes in its net assets and the financial highlights for each of the periods presented, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. These financial statements and financial highlights (hereafter referred to as “financial statements”) are the responsibility of the Trust’s management; our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits of these financial statements in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits, which included confirmation of securities at December 31, 2005 by correspondence with the custodian, brokers and transfer agent provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

* J.P. Morgan Investment Management Inc. also serves as a subadviser to this Portfolio. Its investment advisory agreement with respect to this Portfolio is not included in the table because the Board was not required to take any action with respect to that agreement during the six-month period ended December 31, 2005.
** Legg Mason Capital Management, Inc. also serves as a subadviser to this Portfolio. Its investment advisory agreement with respect to this Portfolio is not included in the table because the Board was not required to take any action with respect to that agreement during the six-month period ended December 31, 2005.
*** Post Advisory Group, LLC also serves as a subadviser to this Portfolio. Its investment advisory agreement with respect to this Portfolio is not included in the table because the Board was not required to take any action with respect to that agreement during the six-month period ended December 31, 2005.

In approving each Management Agreement and each of the Advisory Agreements (collectively, the “Agreements”), the Board considered the overall fairness of the Agreement and whether the Agreement was in the best interest of the affected Portfolio. In this connection, the Board considered factors it deemed relevant with respect to each Portfolio, including, as applicable: (1) the nature, extent and quality of the services provided to the Portfolio by the Manager, each Adviser and each of their respective affiliates; (2) the performance of the Portfolio, and where applicable, each of its allocated portions (or, in the case of a new Adviser, the performance of comparable accounts) as compared to an appropriate benchmark and peer group; (3) the level of the Portfolio’s management and each Adviser’s advisory fees; (4) the costs of the services provided and profits realized by the Manager and, to the extent information was available, each Adviser and their respective affiliates from the relationship with the Portfolio; and (5) the anticipated effect of growth and size on the Portfolio’s performance and expenses. In considering each Agreement, the Board did not identify any single factor or item of information as all-important or controlling.

Moreover, with respect to the Premier VIP Portfolios, the Board considered factors in the context of the overall objectives for the Portfolios including the following: (1) to offer a multi-manager product to investors which provides access to Advisers that would not otherwise be available to many of the Portfolios’ investors because of those Advisers’ minimum investment amounts; (2) to offer a broad array of investment disciplines; (3) to provide active oversight through the Manager to monitor compliance with performance, volatility and other stated objectives; and (4) to provide performance over extended market cycles with lower volatility than the selected market sector index by combining different Advisers within the

 

159


same discipline. The Board considered the fact that the cost of creating and maintaining this structure places the Premier VIP Portfolios in a comparatively high mutual fund expense quartile. However, the Board factored into its decision on the Management Agreement the totality of services provided by the Manager and the fact that the disclosure of all fees and expenses is explicit to potential and current shareholders.

In connection with its deliberations, the Board, among other things, received information, in advance of the meeting at which the renewals were made, from the Manager and each Adviser regarding the factors set forth above and met with representatives of the Manager to discuss the Agreements. The Board also took into account the totality of the performance, fee, expense and other information regarding each Portfolio provided to them on a periodic basis throughout the year. The Independent Trustees were assisted by independent counsel during their deliberations and received materials discussing the legal standards applicable to their consideration of the Agreements.

The Board, in examining the nature, extent and quality of the services provided by the Manager and each Adviser to the Portfolios, considered the Manager’s and each Adviser’s experience in serving as an investment adviser for the Trust and accounts comparable to the Portfolios they advise. The Board noted the responsibilities of the Manager to the Trust and the Portfolios. In particular, with respect to the Manager, the Board considered that the Manager is responsible for the selection and monitoring of subadvisers for the Premier VIP Portfolios, oversight of compliance with Portfolio policies and objectives, and implementation of Board directives as they relate to the Portfolios. With respect to the Allocation Portfolios, the Board also received information regarding the Manager’s investment process and the qualifications and experience of each of the Manager’s portfolio managers who provide services to the Allocation Portfolios. The Board also noted the responsibilities of each Adviser to the Premier VIP Portfolio(s) it advises. In particular, the Board considered that each Adviser is responsible for making investment decisions on behalf of the allocated portion of the Premier VIP Portfolio(s) it advises, placing all orders for the purchase and sale of investments for the allocated portion of the Premier VIP Portfolio(s) it advises with brokers or dealers, and performing related administrative functions, such as proxy voting, valuations and recordkeeping. In addition, the Board reviewed requested information regarding each Adviser’s investment process and the background of each portfolio manager of each Adviser who provides services to the Premier VIP Portfolios.

As discussed further below with respect to each Portfolio, the Board also considered performance of each Portfolio relative to its primary benchmark and peer group. The Board generally considered longer-term performance to be more important in its evaluation than short-term performance. The Board also considered the performance of the portions of each Premier VIP Portfolio allocated to each of its Advisers. In that connection, the Board considered whether the performance of the portions allocated to each of the Advisers met the Board’s expectations as to the compatibility of the Advisers’ different investment strategies and styles and the contribution of each to the overall Portfolio strategy and performance.

The Board reviewed the fees payable under each Agreement. The Board examined the fees paid by each Portfolio in light of fees charged by the Manager to similar portfolios it manages and similar portfolios that are advised by other investment advisers that serve as underlying funds for variable insurance products. In evaluating the management fee schedules, the Board considered the quality and level of services provided and the Manager’s responsibilities to each Portfolio. In this connection, the Board considered a report provided by Lipper Inc., an independent company, containing information regarding the management fee rates and the expense ratios for each Portfolio relative to the median and average management fee rate and expense ratios of its peer group, as discussed further below with respect to each Portfolio. The Board also considered that, while the management fee structure and total expense ratios for manager-of-managers funds generally are higher than for funds with single advisers, each Portfolio (except for the Allocation Portfolios, which have management fee rates lower than the median) has a fee structure that provides for breakpoints, that is, a reduction of the applicable advisory fee rate as assets increase. The Board further considered that the Manager had undertaken contractual expense limitations with respect to certain Portfolios, which are subject to renewal by the Board and the Manager on an annual basis. The Board also considered that the Allocation Portfolios invest in underlying portfolios managed by the Manager and that the Allocation Portfolios will bear the fees of such portfolios, which include management and administration fees paid to the Manager, and in certain instances, advisory fees paid by the Manager to its affiliates.

 

160


In addition, the Board evaluated, as applicable, the Manager’s and, to the extent information was available, each Adviser’s costs and profitability in providing services to the Portfolios, including the costs associated with the research and investment processes, personnel, systems and infrastructure necessary to perform its functions. The Board determined that the Manager’s management fee and profitability and each Portfolio’s overall expense ratios generally were more significant to the Board’s evaluation of the fees and expenses paid by the Portfolios than each Adviser’s costs and profitability.

As part of its evaluation of the Manager’s and each Adviser’s compensation, the Board also considered other benefits that may be realized by the Manager, each Adviser and each of their respective affiliates from their relationship with the Trust. In this connection, the Board noted, among other things, that AXA Equitable serves as the administrator for the Portfolios, receiving compensation for acting in this capacity, and is responsible for, among other things, coordinating the Trust’s audits, financial statements and tax returns and managing expenses and budgeting for the Trust. In addition, the Board recognized that two of the Manager’s affiliates, Alliance Capital Management, L.P. and AXA Rosenberg Investment Management LLC, serve as investment subadvisers to certain Portfolios and, as such, receive advisory fees that are paid by the Manager out of the fees that it earns from the Trust. The Board also recognized that certain other affiliates of the Manager, AXA Advisors LLC and AXA Distributors LLC, serve as the underwriters for the Trust, and as such, receive Rule 12b-1 payments from the Portfolios with respect to their Class B shares to compensate them for providing shareholder services and selling activities, which could lead to growth in the Trust’s assets and the corresponding benefits of that growth, including economies of scale. Further, the Board recognized that Sanford C. Bernstein & Co., LLC, which is a registered broker-dealer, is an affiliate of the Manager and from time to time may receive brokerage commissions from the Portfolios in connection with the purchase and sale of portfolio securities, provided, however, that those transactions, among other things, must be consistent with seeking best execution.

With respect to the Advisers, the Board noted that each Adviser, through its relationship as a subadviser to a Premier VIP Portfolio, may engage in soft dollar transactions. In this regard, the Board considered each Adviser’s procedures for executing portfolio transactions for the allocated portion of the Premier VIP Portfolio(s) it advises and each Adviser’s policies and procedures for the selection of brokers and dealers and for obtaining research from those brokers and dealers. The Board also noted that certain Advisers had discontinued or materially reduced the extent to which they engage in soft dollar transactions. In addition, the Board recognized that many Advisers to the Premier VIP Portfolios are affiliated with registered broker-dealers, which may from time to time receive brokerage commissions from the Premier VIP Portfolios in connection with the purchase and sale of portfolio securities, provided, however, that those transactions, among other things, must be consistent with seeking best execution. Finally, the Board recognized that affiliates of the Advisers may sell, and earn sales commissions from, insurance products, the proceeds of which are invested in the Premier VIP Portfolios.

The Board also considered conflicts of interest that may arise between the Trust and the Manager and the Advisers in connection with the services they provide to the Trust and the various relationships that they and their affiliates may have with the Trust. For example, actual or potential conflicts of interest may arise as a result of an Adviser having responsibility for multiple accounts (including the Portfolio(s) it advises), such as devotion of unequal time and attention to the management of the accounts, inability to allocate limited investment opportunities across accounts and incentive to allocate opportunities to an account where the Adviser has a greater financial incentive, such as a performance fee account. Conflicts also may arise as a result of the Manager advising the Allocation Portfolios, as its selection of underlying portfolios in which to invest may have a positive or negative effect on its revenues and/or profits. In this connection, at prior meetings, the Board also took into consideration the manner in which such conflicts were addressed by the Manager and the Advisers and took that information into account in their considerations at this meeting.

Based on these considerations, the Board was satisfied, with respect to each Portfolio, that the Portfolio was reasonably likely to benefit from the nature, quality and extent of the Manager’s and each Adviser’s services. The Board also reached the determinations described below with respect to the Manager’s and each Adviser’s compensation, including any direct or indirect benefits derived by them and their respective affiliates, and performance with respect to each Portfolio (or, in the case of a new Adviser, the performance of comparable accounts). Based on the foregoing and the information described below, the Board, including the Independent Trustees, unanimously renewed each Agreement with respect to the relevant Portfolio(s).

 

161


ALLOCATION PORTFOLIOS

With respect to each of the following Portfolios, the Board was satisfied that the Manager’s compensation, including any direct or indirect benefits derived by it or its affiliates, is fair and reasonable. In particular, the Board noted that the management fee rate and the expense ratios of the Class A and Class B shares of the Portfolio are lower than the median management fee rate and expense ratios, respectively, of its peer group, and that the Manager is not currently profiting from its management fee with respect to the Portfolio. In addition, the Board was satisfied that the performance of the Portfolio has generally been reasonable in relation to the performance of its benchmark and peer group, and that the performance was reasonable in light of the investment objective, strategies and expectations regarding diversification and volatility. In particular, the Board noted the following:

AXA Conservative Allocation Portfolio

AXA Conservative-Plus Allocation Portfolio

With respect to the two Portfolios listed above, the Board considered, among other things, that although each Portfolio had a relatively short operating history, it had outperformed its benchmark for the one-year and since inception (July 31, 2003) periods ended December 31, 2004, but had underperformed the average of its peer group for the same periods.

AXA Moderate-Plus Allocation Portfolio

AXA Aggressive Allocation Portfolio

With respect to the two Portfolios listed above, the Board considered, among other things, that although each Portfolio had a relatively short operating history, it had outperformed its benchmark and the average of its peer group for the one-year and since inception (July 31, 2003) periods ended December 31, 2004.

AXA Moderate Allocation Portfolio

With respect to the AXA Moderate Allocation Portfolio, the Board considered, among other things, that (1) the Portfolio began operations in its present form as a fund of funds on August 15, 2003; and (2) although the Portfolio has operated as a fund of funds for a relatively short period of time, it had outperformed its benchmark and the average of its peer group for the one-year period ended December 31, 2004 and for the period since its inception as a fund of funds ended on that date.

PREMIER VIP PORTFOLIOS

With respect to each of the following Portfolios, the Board was satisfied that the Manager’s and each Adviser’s compensation, including any direct and indirect benefits derived by them and each of their respective affiliates from their relationships with the Trust, is fair and reasonable. In particular, the Board noted that the management fee rate and the expense ratios for the Class A and Class B shares for each Portfolio (with the exception of the expense ratio for the Class A shares of the AXA Premier VIP Core Bond Portfolio and the expense ratios for the Class A and Class B shares of the AXA Premier Aggressive Equity Portfolio) are higher than the median management fee rate and expense ratios, respectively, of its peer group, and that the higher management fee rate and expense ratios are consistent with the higher costs and greater complexity associated with multi-manager portfolios. In addition, the Board was satisfied that the performance of the Portfolio generally has been reasonable in relation to the performance of its benchmark and peer group, and that the performance of the portions allocated to each of the Advisers generally met the Board’s expectations as to the compatibility of the Advisers’ different investment strategies and styles and the contribution of each to the overall Portfolio strategy and performance. In particular, the Board also noted that all of the following Portfolios (except the AXA Premier VIP Aggressive Equity Portfolio) had an inception date of December 31, 2001 and the following:

Audit, audit-related and tax services provided to the registrant on an annual basis require pre-approval by the entire audit committee. With respect to audit fees, the audit committee also pre-approves an additional amount above the pre-approved amount to allow for unanticipated scope extensions and overruns. Any audit amounts in excess of the pre-approved amounts must be approved by the audit committee or its delegate prior to payment. The audit committee chair also has the authority to approve de minimis non-audit services (i.e., services in which the fee does not exceed $10,000 per engagement) to be provided by the registrant’s principal accountant for the registrant, provided


that each such service is brought to the attention of the audit committee prior to the completion of the audit of the registrant’s financial statements.
