Various inputs are used in determining the value of the Portfolio’s investments. These inputs are summarized in the three broad levels listed below:

 

 

Level 1 - Quoted Prices in active markets for identical securities

 

 

Level 2 - Significant other observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.)

 

 

Level 3 - Significant unobservable inputs (including the Portfolio’s own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments)

The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities. For example, money market securities are valued using amortized cost, in accordance with rules under the Investment Company Act of 1940. Generally, amortized cost approximates the current fair value of a security, but since the value is not obtained from a quoted price in an active market, such securities are reflected as Level 2.

The following is a summary of the inputs used to value the Portfolio’s net assets as of September 30, 2008:

Various inputs are used in determining the value of the Portfolio’s investments. These inputs are summarized in the three broad levels listed below:

 

 

Level 1 - Quoted Prices in active markets for identical securities

 

 

Level 2 - Significant other observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.)

 

 

Level 3 - Significant unobservable inputs (including the Portfolio’s own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments)

The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities. For example, money market securities are valued using amortized cost, in accordance with rules under the Investment Company Act of 1940. Generally, amortized cost approximates the current fair value of a security, but since the value is not obtained from a quoted price in an active market, such securities are reflected as Level 2.

Various inputs are used in determining the value of the Portfolio’s investments. These inputs are summarized in the three broad levels listed below:

 

 

Level 1 - Quoted Prices in active markets for identical securities

 

 

Level 2 - Significant other observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.)

 

 

Level 3 - Significant unobservable inputs (including the Portfolio’s own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments)

The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities. For example, money market securities are valued using amortized cost, in accordance with rules under the Investment Company Act of 1940. Generally, amortized cost approximates the current fair value of a security, but since the value is not obtained from a quoted price in an active market, such securities are reflected as Level 2.

MULTIMANAGER AGGRESSIVE EQUITY PORTFOLIO

PORTFOLIO OF INVESTMENTS (Continued)

September 30, 2008 (Unaudited)

 

Various inputs are used in determining the value of the Portfolio’s investments. These inputs are summarized in the three broad levels listed below:

 

 

Level 1 - Quoted Prices in active markets for identical securities

 

 

Level 2 - Significant other observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.)

 

 

Level 3 - Significant unobservable inputs (including the Portfolio’s own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments)

The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities. For example, money market securities are valued using amortized cost, in accordance with rules under the Investment Company Act of 1940. Generally, amortized cost approximates the current fair value of a security, but since the value is not obtained from a quoted price in an active market, such securities are reflected as Level 2.

The following is a summary of the inputs used to value the Portfolio’s net assets as of September 30, 2008:

Various inputs are used in determining the value of the Portfolio’s investments. These inputs are summarized in the three broad levels listed below:

 

 

Level 1 - Quoted Prices in active markets for identical securities

 

 

Level 2 - Significant other observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.)

 

 

Level 3 - Significant unobservable inputs (including the Portfolio’s own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments)

The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities. For example, money market securities are valued using amortized cost, in accordance with rules under the Investment Company Act of 1940. Generally, amortized cost approximates the current fair value of a security, but since the value is not obtained from a quoted price in an active market, such securities are reflected as Level 2.

The following is a summary of the inputs used to value the Portfolio’s net assets as of September 30, 2008:

Various inputs are used in determining the value of the Portfolio’s investments. These inputs are summarized in the three broad levels listed below:

 

 

Level 1 - Quoted Prices in active markets for identical securities

 

 

Level 2 - Significant other observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.)

 

 

Level 3 - Significant unobservable inputs (including the Portfolio’s own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments)

The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities. For example, money market securities are valued using amortized cost, in accordance with rules under the Investment Company Act of 1940. Generally, amortized cost approximates the current fair value of a security, but since the value is not obtained from a quoted price in an active market, such securities are reflected as Level 2.

The following is a summary of the inputs used to value the Portfolio’s net assets as of September 30, 2008:

Various inputs are used in determining the value of the Portfolio’s investments. These inputs are summarized in the three broad levels listed below:

 

 

Level 1 - Quoted Prices in active markets for identical securities

 

 

Level 2 - Significant other observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.)

 

 

Level 3 - Significant unobservable inputs (including the Portfolio’s own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments)

The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities. For example, money market securities are valued using amortized cost, in accordance with rules under the Investment Company Act of 1940. Generally, amortized cost approximates the current fair value of a security, but since the value is not obtained from a quoted price in an active market, such securities are reflected as Level 2.

The following is a summary of the inputs used to value the Portfolio’s net assets as of September 30, 2008:

PORTFOLIO OF INVESTMENTS (Continued)

September 30, 2008 (Unaudited)

 

Various inputs are used in determining the value of the Portfolio’s investments. These inputs are summarized in the three broad levels listed below:

 

 

Level 1 - Quoted Prices in active markets for identical securities

 

 

Level 2 - Significant other observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.)

 

 

Level 3 - Significant unobservable inputs (including the Portfolio’s own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments)

The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities. For example, money market securities are valued using amortized cost, in accordance with rules under the Investment Company Act of 1940. Generally, amortized cost approximates the current fair value of a security, but since the value is not obtained from a quoted price in an active market, such securities are reflected as Level 2.

The following is a summary of the inputs used to value the Portfolio’s net assets as of September 30, 2008:

PORTFOLIO OF INVESTMENTS (Continued)

September 30, 2008 (Unaudited)

 

Various inputs are used in determining the value of the Portfolio’s investments. These inputs are summarized in the three broad levels listed below:

 

 

Level 1 - Quoted Prices in active markets for identical securities

 

 

Level 2 - Significant other observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.)

 

 

Level 3 - Significant unobservable inputs (including the Portfolio’s own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments)

The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities. For example, money market securities are valued using amortized cost, in accordance with rules under the Investment Company Act of 1940. Generally, amortized cost approximates the current fair value of a security, but since the value is not obtained from a quoted price in an active market, such securities are reflected as Level 2.

The following is a summary of the inputs used to value the Portfolio’s net assets as of September 30, 2008:

Various inputs are used in determining the value of the Portfolio’s investments. These inputs are summarized in the three broad levels listed below:

 

 

Level 1 - Quoted Prices in active markets for identical securities

 

 

Level 2 - Significant other observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.)

 

 

Level 3 - Significant unobservable inputs (including the Portfolio’s own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments)

The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities. For example, money market securities are valued using amortized cost, in accordance with rules under the Investment Company Act of 1940. Generally, amortized cost approximates the current fair value of a security, but since the value is not obtained from a quoted price in an active market, such securities are reflected as Level 2.

The following is a summary of the inputs used to value the Portfolio’s net assets as of September 30, 2008:

At September 30, 2008, the Portfolio had loaned securities with a total value of $6,520,336. This was secured by collateral of $6,233,522 which was received as cash and subsequently invested in short-term investments as reported in the portfolio of investments. Additionally, uninvested cash received as collateral on loaned securities was held in an interest bearing account in the amount of $19,733, which the Portfolio cannot repledge and accordingly is not reflected in the Portfolio’s assets and liabilities.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2008, the Portfolio incurred approximately $1,229 as brokerage commissions with Sanford C. Bernstein & Co., Inc., an affiliated broker/dealer.

PORTFOLIO OF INVESTMENTS (Continued)

September 30, 2008 (Unaudited)

 

Various inputs are used in determining the value of the Portfolio’s investments. These inputs are summarized in the three broad levels listed below:

 

 

Level 1 - Quoted Prices in active markets for identical securities

 

 

Level 2 - Significant other observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.)

 

 

Level 3 - Significant unobservable inputs (including the Portfolio’s own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments)

The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities. For example, money market securities are valued using amortized cost, in accordance with rules under the Investment Company Act of 1940. Generally, amortized cost approximates the current fair value of a security, but since the value is not obtained from a quoted price in an active market, such securities are reflected as Level 2.

The following is a summary of the inputs used to value the Portfolio’s net assets as of September 30, 2008:

PORTFOLIO OF INVESTMENTS (Continued)

September 30, 2008 (Unaudited)

 

Various inputs are used in determining the value of the Portfolio’s investments. These inputs are summarized in the three broad levels listed below:

 

 

Level 1 - Quoted Prices in active markets for identical securities

 

 

Level 2 - Significant other observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.)

 

 

Level 3 - Significant unobservable inputs (including the Portfolio’s own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments)

The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities. For example, money market securities are valued using amortized cost, in accordance with rules under the Investment Company Act of 1940. Generally, amortized cost approximates the current fair value of a security, but since the value is not obtained from a quoted price in an active market, such securities are reflected as Level 2.

The following is a summary of the inputs used to value the Portfolio’s net assets as of September 30, 2008:

Various inputs are used in determining the value of the Portfolio’s investments. These inputs are summarized in the three broad levels listed below:

 

 

Level 1 - Quoted Prices in active markets for identical securities

 

 

Level 2 - Significant other observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.)

 

 

Level 3 - Significant unobservable inputs (including the Portfolio’s own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments)

The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities. For example, money market securities are valued using amortized cost, in accordance with rules under the Investment Company Act of 1940. Generally, amortized cost approximates the current fair value of a security, but since the value is not obtained from a quoted price in an active market, such securities are reflected as Level 2.

The following is a summary of the inputs used to value the Portfolio’s net assets as of September 30, 2008:

At September 30, 2008, the Portfolio had loaned securities with a total value of $122,465,770. This was secured by collateral of $118,690,575 which was received as cash and subsequently invested in short-term investments as reported in the portfolio of investments. Additionally, uninvested cash received as collateral on loaned securities was held in an interest bearing account in the amount of $157,855, which the Portfolio cannot repledge and accordingly is not reflected in the Portfolio’s assets and liabilities.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2008, the Portfolio incurred approximately $82 as brokerage commissions with BNP Paribas S.A., $2,028 as brokerage commissions with Sanford C. Bernstein & Co., Inc. and $6,795 as brokerage commissions with Williams Capital Group, affiliated broker/dealers.

PORTFOLIO OF INVESTMENTS (Continued)

September 30, 2008 (Unaudited)

 

Various inputs are used in determining the value of the Portfolio’s investments. These inputs are summarized in the three broad levels listed below:

 

 

Level 1 - Quoted Prices in active markets for identical securities

 

 

Level 2 - Significant other observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.)

 

 

Level 3 - Significant unobservable inputs (including the Portfolio’s own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments)

The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities. For example, money market securities are valued using amortized cost, in accordance with rules under the Investment Company Act of 1940. Generally, amortized cost approximates the current fair value of a security, but since the value is not obtained from a quoted price in an active market, such securities are reflected as Level 2.

The following is a summary of the inputs used to value the Portfolio’s net assets as of September 30, 2008:

Various inputs are used in determining the value of the Portfolio’s investments. These inputs are summarized in the three broad levels listed below:

 

 

Level 1 - Quoted Prices in active markets for identical securities

 

 

Level 2 - Significant other observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.)

 

 

Level 3 - Significant unobservable inputs (including the Portfolio’s own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments)

The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities. For example, money market securities are valued using amortized cost, in accordance with rules under the Investment Company Act of 1940. Generally, amortized cost approximates the current fair value of a security, but since the value is not obtained from a quoted price in an active market, such securities are reflected as Level 2.

The following is a summary of the inputs used to value the Portfolio’s net assets as of September 30, 2008:

PORTFOLIO OF INVESTMENTS (Continued)

Various inputs are used in determining the value of the Portfolio’s investments. These inputs are summarized in the three broad levels listed below:

 

 

Level 1 - Quoted Prices in active markets for identical securities

 

 

Level 2 - Significant other observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.)

 

 

Level 3 - Significant unobservable inputs (including the Portfolio’s own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments)

The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities. For example, money market securities are valued using amortized cost, in accordance with rules under the Investment Company Act of 1940. Generally, amortized cost approximates the current fair value of a security, but since the value is not obtained from a quoted price in an active market, such securities are reflected as Level 2.

The following is a summary of the inputs used to value the Portfolio’s net assets as of September 30, 2008:

The Portfolio has a net capital loss carryforward of $64,405,823 of which $38,752,806 expires in the year 2009, and $25,653,017 expires in the year 2010.

Certain capital loss carryforwards may be subject to limitation pursuant to applicable U.S. Federal Income Tax Law. Therefore, it is possible not all of these capital losses will be available for use.

Various inputs are used in determining the value of the Portfolio’s investments. These inputs are summarized in the three broad levels listed below:

 

 

Level 1 - Quoted Prices in active markets for identical securities

 

 

Level 2 - Significant other observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.)

 

 

Level 3 - Significant unobservable inputs (including the Portfolio’s own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments)

The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities. For example, money market securities are valued using amortized cost, in accordance with rules under the Investment Company Act of 1940. Generally, amortized cost approximates the current fair value of a security, but since the value is not obtained from a quoted price in an active market, such securities are reflected as Level 2.

NOTES TO PORTFOLIO OF INVESTMENTS

September 30, 2008 (Unaudited)

Note 1 Valuation

Equity securities 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. Other unlisted equity securities 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 last sale price is used. If the bid price is higher or the asked price is lower than the last sale price, the higher bid or lower asked price may be 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.

Investments in Exchange Traded Funds (ETFs) are valued based on last sale price.

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.

AXA PREMIER VIP TRUST

NOTES TO PORTFOLIO OF INVESTMENTS — (Continued)

September 30, 2008 (Unaudited)

 

Investments in the AXA Allocation Portfolios and the Target Allocation Portfolios are valued based on the net asset value per share of each underlying open-end mutual 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.

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.

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, security payables/receivables, 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 and foreign currency translations in the realized and unrealized gains and losses section, respectively, of the Portfolio’s financial statements. 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.

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. Generally, 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. At September 30, 2008, the cash collateral received by each Portfolio for securities loaned was invested by JPMorgan and is summarized in the Portfolio of Investments. The Portfolios bear the risk of any loss in market value of the collateral. 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.

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 cancelled 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 Portfolio’s financial statements. 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, 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 Portfolio’s financial statements. 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 Portfolio’s financial statements. 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 Portfolio’s financial statements. 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.

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 September 30, 2008.

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.
