(the "Fund") for use at the Annual Meeting of Shareholders of the Fund, to be held on February 16, 1995, or any adjournment or adjournments thereof (collectively, the "Meeting"). The Meeting will be held at 388 Greenwich Street, 22nd Floor, New York, New York, at 9:00 a.m. This proxy statement and accompanying proxy card are first being mailed on or about December 30, 1994. Proxy solicitations will be made primarily by mail, but proxy solicitations also may be made by telephone, telegraph or personal interviews conducted by officers and employees of the Fund; Greenwich Street Advisors (the "Adviser"), the adviser for the Fund; The Boston Company Advisors, Inc., the sub-administrator for the Fund ("Boston Advisors"); and/or The Shareholder Services Group, Inc. ("TSSG"), a subsidiary of First Data Corporation, the transfer agent for the Fund. The costs of proxy solicitation and expenses incurred in connection with the preparation of this proxy statement and its enclosures will be paid by the Fund. The Fund will also reimburse brokerage firms and others for their expenses in forwarding solicitation material to the beneficial owners of Fund shares. The Annual Report of the Fund, including audited financial statements for the fiscal year ended October 31, 1994, is being furnished to all shareholders of the Fund herewith. If the enclosed proxy is properly executed and returned in time to be voted at the Meeting, the shares represented thereby will be voted in accordance with the instructions marked thereon. Unless instructions to the contrary are marked thereon, a proxy will be voted FOR each of the nominees for director and FOR the other matters listed in the accompanying Notice of Annual Meeting of Shareholders. For purposes of determining the presence of a quorum for transacting business at the Meeting, abstentions and broker "non-votes"(that is, proxies from brokers or nominees indicating that such persons have not received instructions from the beneficial owner or other persons entitled to vote shares on a particular matter with respect to which the brokers or nominees do not have discretionary power) will be treated as shares that are present but which have 1 not been voted. Approval of Proposals 1 and 2 require the affirmative vote of a plurality of shares voted. Because abstentions and broker non-votes are not treated as shares voted, abstentions and broker non-votes would have no impact on such Proposals. Any shareholder who has given a proxy has the right to revoke it at any time prior to its exercise either by attending the Meeting and voting his or her shares in person or by submitting a letter of revocation or a later-dated proxy to the Fund at the above address prior to the date of the Meeting. In the event that a quorum is not present at a Meeting, or in the event that a quorum is present but sufficient votes to approve any of the proposals are not received, the persons named as proxies may propose one or more adjournments of the Meeting to permit further solicitation of proxies. In determining whether to adjourn the Meeting, the following factors may be considered: the nature of the proposals that are the subject of the Meeting, the percentage of votes actually cast, the percentage of negative votes actually cast, the nature of any further solicitation and the information to be provided to shareholders with respect to the reasons for the solicitation. Any adjournment will require the affirmative vote of a majority of those shares represented at the Meeting in person or by proxy. A shareholder vote may be taken on any one of the proposals in this proxy statement prior to any adjournment if sufficient votes have been received for approval. Under the By-laws of the Fund, as applicable, a quorum is constituted by the presence in person or by proxy of the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares entitled to vote on the particular matter at the Meeting. The Board has fixed the close of business on December 19, 1994 as the record date (the "Record Date") for the determination of shareholders of the Fund entitled to notice of and to vote at the Meeting. The Fund has one class of common stock, which has a par value of $.01 per share. At the close of business on the Record Date there were 19,642,696.209 shares of common stock outstanding (the "Shares"). Each shareholder is entitled to one vote for each Share held and a proportionate fraction of a vote for any fractional Share held. As of the Record Date, to the knowledge of the Fund and its Board, no single shareholder or "group" (as that term is used in Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the "Exchange Act")), except as set forth below, beneficially owned more than 5% of the outstanding Shares of the Fund. As of the Record Date, Cede & Co., a nominee partnership of the Depository Trust Company, held 16,641,192 Shares, or 85% of the Fund's Shares. Of the Shares held by Cede & Co., Smith Barney Inc. ("Smith Barney") held 9,369,694 Shares, or 48% of the Fund's Shares, for which it has discretionary and non-discretionary authority. As of the Record Date, the officers and Board Members of the Fund as a group beneficially owned less than 1% of the Shares of the Fund. 2 In order that a shareholder's Shares may be represented at the Meeting, shareholders are required to allow sufficient time for their proxies to be received on or before 9:00 a.m. on February 16, 1995. The following table shows certain information about the executive officers of the Fund, other than Heath B. McLendon, for whom comparable information is provided in the discussion of Proposal 1 below. Each officer of the Fund serves at the discretion of the Board.

The information as to beneficial ownership is based solely upon information furnished to the Fund by the officers. PROPOSAL 1: TO ELECT TWO (2) DIRECTORS OF THE FUND The first proposal to be considered at the Meeting is the election of two (2) Directors of the Fund. The Board of Directors of the Fund is divided into three classes with the terms of office of one class expiring each year. At the forthcoming Meeting, it is proposed that Robert A. Frankel and Heath B. McLendon be elected for a term of three years (until the Annual Meeting in 1998) or until their respective successors are duly elected and qualified. Messrs. Frankel and McLendon have previously been elected by the shareholders and are currently serving as Class II Directors. Messrs. Frankel and McLendon have consented to serve as Directors if elected at the Meeting. If a designated nominee declines or otherwise becomes unavailable for election, however, the proxy confers discretionary power on the persons named therein to vote in favor of a substitute nominee or nominees. 4 Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act requires the Fund's officers and Directors, and persons who beneficially own more than ten percent of a registered class of the Fund's equity securities, to file reports of ownership with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC"), the New York Stock Exchange, Inc. and the Fund. Based solely upon its review of the copies of such forms received by it and written representations from such persons, the Fund believes that, during fiscal year 1994, all filing requirements applicable to such persons were complied with. Each Director who is not an "interested person" (as that term is defined in the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "1940 Act")) of the Fund (an "Independent Board Member") receives a fee of $5,000 per annum plus $500 per meeting attended, and reimbursement for travel and out-of-pocket expenses. The aggregate remuneration paid to Directors by the Fund for the fiscal year ended October 31, 1993 amounted to $43,790 (including reimbursement for travel and out-of-pocket expenses). The Board of Directors held eight meetings during the fiscal year ended October 31, 1994, four of which were regular meetings. The Board has an Audit Committee consisting of all Independent Board Members. The Audit Committee reviews the scope and results of the Fund's annual audit with the Fund's independent accountants and recommends the engagement of accountants. The Audit Committee met twice during the fiscal year ended October 31, 1994. Each incumbent Director attended at least 75% of the meetings of the Board and committees of which he is a member that were held in the last fiscal year. Each of the nominees for Director of the Fund currently serves as a Director of the Fund. Any Director may resign and any Director may be removed at any meeting of shareholders called for that purpose by a vote of a majority of the votes entitled to be cast for election of Directors. In case a vacancy shall exist for any reason, the remaining Directors may fill the vacancy by appointing another Director. If at any time less than a majority of the Directors holding office have been elected by shareholders, the Directors then in office will call a shareholder's meeting for the purpose of electing Directors. 5 Set forth in the following table are the existing Directors and nominees for election to the Board of Directors of the Fund, together with certain other information: AMOUNT (AND PERCENTAGE) OF OUTSTANDING SHARES OF PRINCIPAL COMMON STOCK OCCUPATION BENEFICIALLY AND OTHER BOARD MEMBER OWNED** DIRECTORSHIPS*** OF FUND AS OF THE DURING THE NAME (AGE) AND ADDRESS SINCE RECORD DATE PAST FIVE YEARS - ---------------------- ------------ ----------- --------------- DIRECTOR TO SERVE UNTIL THE 1998 MEETING OF SHAREHOLDERS: Robert A.

THE BOARD OF THE FUND, INCLUDING ALL THE INDEPENDENT BOARD MEMBERS, RECOMMENDS THAT SHAREHOLDERS VOTE "FOR" THE ELECTION OF NOMINEES TO THE BOARD. PROPOSAL 2: TO RATIFY THE SELECTION OF KPMG PEAT MARWICK LLP AS THE INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS FOR THE FUND FOR THE CURRENT FISCAL YEAR The second proposal to be considered at the Meeting is the ratification of the selection of KPMG Peat Marwick LLP as the independent public accountants for the Fund. KPMG Peat Marwick LLP, 345 Park Avenue, New York, New York 10154, has been selected to serve as independent accountants for the Fund for the Fund's current fiscal year by at least a majority of the Independent Board Members. KPMG Peat Marwick LLP has informed the Fund that it has no direct or indirect financial interest in the Fund, Smith Barney, or any of their affiliates. Coopers & Lybrand L.L.P. served as the Fund's independent accountants for the fiscal year ending October 31, 1994. On October 20, 1994, based upon the recommendation of the Audit Committee of the Fund's Board of Directors, and in accordance with Section 32 of the 1940 Act, and the rules thereunder, the Board of Directors of the Fund determined to appoint KPMG Peat Marwick LLP as the Fund's independent accountants for the fiscal year ending October 31, 1995. During the Fund's two most recent fiscal years ending October 31, 1994, Coopers & Lybrand's reports on the Fund's financial statements contained no 7 adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion, nor were they qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope, or accounting principles. During the same period, there were no disagreements with Coopers & Lybrand on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure, which disagreements, if not resolved to the satisfaction of Coopers & Lybrand, would have caused it to make reference to the subject matter of the disagreement in connection with its report. During this period, there have been no "reportable events" as such term is described in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K with respect to Coopers & Lybrand. During the Fund's two most recent years through October 31, 1994, the Fund has not consulted with KPMG Peat Marwick LLP on items which (i) concerned the application of accounting principles to a specified transaction, either completed or proposed, or the type of audit opinion that might be rendered on the Fund's financial statements or (ii) concerned the subject matter of a disagreement or reportable event with Coopers & Lybrand. The Fund has requested Coopers & Lybrand to furnish it with a letter addressed to the Securities and Exchange Commission stating whether Coopers & Lybrand agrees with the statements contained in the paragraphs above. A copy of the letter from Coopers & Lybrand is on file with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Representatives of both Coopers & Lybrand and KPMG Peat Marwick LLP will be available via telephone for the Meeting to make a statement if they so desire and will respond to appropriate questions. REQUIRED VOTE Ratification of the selection of KPMG Peat Marwick LLP as independent accountants for the Fund requires the affirmative vote of the holders of a plurality of the votes cast at the Meeting in person or by proxy. THE BOARD OF THE FUND, INCLUDING ALL OF THE INDEPENDENT BOARD MEMBERS, RECOMMENDS THAT THE SHAREHOLDERS VOTE "FOR" RATIFICATION OF THE SELECTION OF KPMG PEAT MARWICK LLP. ADDITIONAL INFORMATION INVESTMENT ADVISER Greenwich Street Advisors (the "Adviser"), located at 388 Greenwich Street, New York, New York 10013, has served as the investment adviser to the Fund since July 31, 1993 pursuant to an investment advisory agreement dated July 31, 1993 (the "Advisory Agreement"). The Adviser (through its predecessors) has been in the investment counseling business since 1934 and is a division of SBMFM which was incorporated in 1968. The Adviser renders investment advice to investment companies that had assets under management 8 as of November 30, 1994 in excess of $46 billion. SBMFM is a wholly owned subsidiary of Smith Barney Inc. ("Smith Barney") which in turn is a wholly owned subsidiary of The Travelers Inc. ("Travelers"). The principal executive offices of Smith Barney and Travelers are 388 Greenwich Street, New York, New York 10013, and 65 East 55th Street, New York, New York 10022, respectively. Prior to July 31, 1993, Shearson Lehman Advisors, a member of the investment management group of the SLB Asset Management Division of Shearson Lehman Brothers Inc., served as investment adviser to the Fund. As of the close of business on July 30, 1993, Travelers (which at the time was known as Primerica Corporation) and Smith Barney, Harris Upham & Co. Incorporated completed the acquisition of substantially all of the domestic retail brokerage and asset management businesses of Shearson Lehman Brothers Inc. and Smith Barney, Harris Upham & Co. Incorporated was renamed Smith Barney Shearson Inc. On June 1, 1994, Smith Barney Shearson Inc. was renamed Smith Barney Inc. As of the close of business on July 30, 1993, the Adviser succeeded Shearson Lehman Advisors as the Fund's investment adviser. The new investment advisory agreement with the Adviser contains terms and conditions substantially similar to the investment advisory agreement with the predecessor investment adviser and provides for payment of fees at the same rate as was paid to such predecessor investment adviser. As of the Record Date, the Directors and/or executive officers of the Fund beneficially owned (or were deemed to beneficially own pursuant to the rules of the SEC) less than 1% of the shares of common stock of Travelers. The name, principal occupation and address of each director and principal executive officer of the Adviser are set forth in Exhibit A hereto. An audited Consolidated Statement of Financial Condition for Smith, Barney Advisers, Inc. as of December 31, 1993 is set forth as Exhibit B hereto. Prior to November 7, 1994, SBMFM was known as Smith, Barney Advisers, Inc. THE ADVISORY AGREEMENT The Advisory Agreement was most recently approved by the Fund's Board of Directors, including a majority of the Independent Board Members, on September 7, 1994, and by the Fund's shareholders on June 9, 1993. Under the terms of the Agreement, the Adviser is required, subject to the supervision and approval of the Board of the Fund, to manage the Fund's investments in accordance with the investment objectives and policies as stated in the Fund's Prospectus. The Adviser is responsible for making investment decisions, supplying investment research and Fund management services and placing orders to purchase and sell securities on behalf of the Fund. In consideration of services rendered by the Adviser pursuant to the Advisory Agreement, the Fund pays a monthly fee at the annual rate of .40% of the Fund's average monthly net assets. Pursuant to the Advisory Agreement, the 9 Fund paid a total of $731,864 in advisory fees for the fiscal year ended October 31, 1994. The Adviser bears all expenses in connection with the performance of its services under the Advisory Agreement. Other expenses incurred in the operation of the Fund are borne by the Fund, including taxes, interest, brokerage fees and commissions, if any; fees of the Board Members who are not officers, directors, shareholders or employees of the Adviser, the Fund's administrator and its affiliates; SEC fees and state blue sky qualification fees; charges of custodian and transfer and dividend disbursing agents; certain insurance premiums; outside auditing and legal expenses; cost of investor services (including allocable telephone and personnel expenses); costs of preparation and printing of shareholders' reports; costs incurred in connection with meetings of the Board and of the shareholders of the Fund; listing fees; and any extraordinary expenses. If in any fiscal year the aggregate expenses of the Fund (including fees pursuant to the Advisory Agreement (and the administration agreement) but excluding interest, taxes, brokerage and, if permitted by state securities commissions, extraordinary expenses) exceed the expense limitation of any state having jurisdiction over the Fund, the Adviser will reduce its advisory fees to the Fund for the excess expense to the extent required by state law in the same proportion as its advisory fee bears to the Fund's aggregate fees for investment advice and administration. Proportionate reductions would also be made by the Fund's administrator. This expense reimbursement, if any, will be estimated, reconciled and paid on a monthly basis. The Advisory Agreement provides that in the absence of willful misfeasance, bad faith, gross negligence or reckless disregard of its obligations thereunder, the Adviser shall not be liable for any act or omission in the course of, or in connection with, the rendering of its services thereunder. Pursuant to its terms, the Advisory Agreement will remain in effect for an initial two-year term and will continue in effect for successive periods if and so long as such continuance is specifically approved annually by (a) the Fund's Board or (b) a Majority Vote of the Fund's shareholders, provided that in either event, the continuance also is approved by a majority of the Independent Board Members by vote cast in person at a meeting called for the purpose of voting on approval. The Advisory Agreement is terminable, without penalty, on 60 days' written notice by the Board of the Fund or by a Majority Vote of the Fund's shareholders, or on 90 days' written notice by the Adviser. The Advisory Agreement will terminate automatically in the event of its assignment (as defined in the 1940 Act). 10 PORTFOLIO TRANSACTIONS Decisions to buy and sell securities for the Fund are made by the Adviser, subject to the overall review of the Fund's Board. Although investment decisions for the Fund are made independently from those of the other accounts managed by the Adviser, investments of the type the Fund may make also may be made by those other accounts. When the Fund and one or more other accounts managed by the Adviser are prepared to invest in, or desire to dispose of, the same security, available investments or opportunities for sales will be allocated in a manner believed by the Adviser to be equitable to each. In some cases, this procedure may adversely affect the price paid or received by the Fund or the size of the position obtained or disposed of by the Fund. Transactions on U.S. stock exchanges and many foreign stock exchanges involve the payment of negotiated brokerage commissions. On exchanges on which commissions are negotiated, the cost of transactions may vary among different brokers. No stated commission is generally applicable to securities traded in U.S. over-the-counter markets, but the prices of those securities include undisclosed commissions or mark-ups. The cost of securities purchased from underwriters includes an underwriting commission or concession and the prices at which securities are repurchased from and sold to dealers include a dealer's mark-up or mark-down. U.S. government securities are generally purchased from underwriters or dealers, although certain newly-issued U.S. government securities may be purchased directly from the United States Treasury or from the issuing agency or instrumentality. In selecting brokers or dealers to execute Fund transactions on behalf of the Fund, the Adviser seeks the best overall terms available. In assessing the best overall terms available for any transaction, the Adviser will consider the factors it deems relevant, including the breadth of the market in the security, the price of the security, the financial condition and execution capability of the broker or dealer and the reasonableness of the commission, if any, for the specific transaction and on a continuing basis. In addition, the Adviser is authorized, in selecting brokers or dealers to execute a particular transaction and in evaluating the best overall terms available, to consider the brokerage and research services (as those terms are defined in Section 28(e) of the Exchange Act) provided to the Fund and/or other accounts over which the Adviser or its affiliates exercise investment discretion. The fees under an Agreement are not reduced by reason of the Fund's or the Adviser's receiving brokerage and research services. Research and investment services are those which brokerage houses customarily provide to institutional investors and include statistical and economic data and research reports on particular issues and industries. These services are used by the Adviser in connection with all of its investment activities, and some of the services obtained in connection with the execution of transactions for the Fund may be used in managing other investment accounts. Conversely, brokers 11 furnishing these services may be selected for the execution of transactions for these other accounts, whose aggregate assets may exceed those of the Fund, and the services furnished by the brokers may be used by the Adviser in providing investment management for the Fund. During the last fiscal year of the Fund, neither the Fund nor its Adviser, pursuant to any agreement or understanding with a broker or otherwise through an internal allocation procedure, directed the Fund's brokerage transactions to a broker or brokers because of research services provided. The Board of the Fund periodically will review the commissions paid by the Fund to determine if the commissions paid over representative periods of time were reasonable in relation to the benefits inuring to the Fund. Over-the-counter purchases and sales by the Fund are transacted directly with principal market makers except in those cases in which better prices and executions may be obtained elsewhere. To the extent consistent with applicable provisions of the 1940 Act and the rules and exemptions adopted by the SEC under the 1940 Act, subject to the approval of the Board of the Fund, transactions for the Fund may be executed through Smith Barney and other affiliated broker-dealers if, in the judgment of the Adviser, the use of an affiliated broker-dealer is likely to result in price and execution at least as favorable as those of other qualified broker-dealers. The Fund will not purchase any security, including U.S. government securities, during the existence of any underwriting or selling group relating to the security of which Smith Barney is a member, except to the extent permitted by the SEC. For the fiscal year ended October 31, 1994, the Fund did not incur any brokerage commissions. SUBMISSION OF SHAREHOLDER PROPOSALS Shareholders wishing to submit proposals for inclusion in a proxy statement for the 1996 annual meeting of shareholders must submit their proposals for inclusion in the proxy materials relating to the next annual meeting in writing to the Secretary of the Fund, c/o Smith Barney Inc., 388 Greenwich Street, New York, New York 10013, no later than September 1, 1995.

AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED STATEMENT OF FINANCIAL CONDITION DECEMBER 31, 1993 (1) Organization -- Smith, Barney Advisers, Inc. ("SBA"), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Smith Barney Shearson Holdings Inc. ("Parent") (formerly Smith Barney Holdings, Inc.), is a registered investment adviser and acts pursuant to management agreements as investment manager to forty-five investment company portfolios. SBA provides each investment company with personnel, investment advice, office space and administrative services at fees based on the net assets of each fund. The consolidated statement of financial condition includes the accounts of Smith Barney Shearson Strategy Advisers Inc. ("SBSSA") (a wholly-owned subsidiary of SBA) and its (Continued) B-2 SMITH, BARNEY ADVISERS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED STATEMENT OF FINANCIAL CONDITION (CONTINUED) DECEMBER 31, 1993 wholly-owned subsidiary. Significant intercompany balances have been eliminated in consolidation. (2) Shearson Acquisition -- On July 31, 1993, Smith Barney, Harris Upham & Co. Incorporated ("SBHU"), together with certain of its affiliates (including SBA) and The Travelers Inc. (formerly Primerica Corporation), acquired the domestic retail brokerage and asset management business ("Shearson") of Shearson Lehman Brothers Holdings Inc. and its subsidiaries, a subsidiary of American Express Company. Shearson was combined with the operations of SBHU and its affiliates, and SBHU was renamed Smith Barney Shearson Inc. ("SBS"). The asset management business acquired by SBA included SBSSA (and its wholly-owned subsidiary), as well as the contracts to manage fifteen of Shearson's investment company management contracts. (3) Related Party Transactions -- SBS provides SBA with executive and administrative services (e.g., accounting, legal, personnel, facilities, mail and other support services) and order processing support on a basis mutually agreed upon. Receivable from affiliates are non-interest bearing. In 1993, SBA transferred a deferred tax liability, resulting from the adoption of Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No. 109. The resulting Payable to Parent is pursuant to a tax sharing agreement, and is non-interest bearing. Substantially all cash collected by SBA relating to management fees is remitted to the Parent in the form of intercompany dividends. Investment in affiliated mutual fund represents shares of an investment company owned by SBSSA. Such investment is carried at market value. (4) Income Taxes -- Under an income tax allocation arrangement with the Parent and The Travelers Inc., SBA's Federal, state and local income taxes are provided on a separate return basis without regard to timing items, and are subject to the utilization of tax attributes in The Travelers Inc. consolidated income tax provision. Under the tax sharing agreement, SBA remits taxes to the Parent. (5) Investment Advisory Contracts -- Investment advisory contracts include $68,296,775 of value ascribed to the acquired Shearson investment company advisory contracts purchased by SBA (see note 2). The cost of these contracts is being amortized over twenty years on a straight-line basis. (Continued) B-3 SMITH, BARNEY ADVISERS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED STATEMENT OF FINANCIAL CONDITION (CONTINUED) DECEMBER 31, 1993 In addition, the balance also includes the amortized cost assigned to certain investment advisory contracts in connection with the acquisition of the Parent by Commercial Credit Group, Inc. in December 1988. The combined successor firm subsequently changed its name to Primerica Corporation (now The Travelers Inc.). The cost of these contracts is being amortized over thirty years on a straight-line basis. (6) Notes Payable -- At December 31, 1993 note payable represents a demand note payable to Parent at a rate of LIBOR plus .75%. The note was issued for the financing of investment advisory contracts purchased by SBA on July 31, 1993 (see note 2). (7) Commitments and Contingency -- SBSSA is required to own at least 1% of an affiliated investment company's outstanding shares. At December 31, 1993 SBSSA's ownership interest meets this requirement. B-4 VOTE THIS VOTING INSTRUCTION CARD TODAY!
