statement of additional information you received and in any supplements to that
prospectus and statement of additional information (collectively, the
"Prospectus"). You should read this Supplement in conjunction with the
Prospectus and retain it for future reference. Unless otherwise indicated, all

section headings we use in this Supplement have the same meaning as in the
Prospectus. We will send you another copy of any prospectus or supplement

below.
1. CHANGES TO PORTFOLIOS OF EQ ADVISORS TRUST ("TRUST")
PORTFOLIO MERGERS
The Board of Trustees of EQ Advisors Trust (the "Trust") has approved a form
of a Plan of Reorganization and Termination ("Reorganization Plan"), which
provides for the reorganization of each of the Existing Portfolios listed
below into a corresponding Proposed Replacement Portfolio of the Trust (each,
a "Merger" and collectively, the "Mergers"):
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Existing Portfolio Proposed Replacement Portfolio
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
EQ Advisors Trust
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
EQ/Government Securities EQ/Intermediate Government Bond Index
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
EQ/Long Term Bond EQ/Core Bond Index
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
EQ/Lord Abbett Mid Cap Value EQ/Mid Cap Value PLUS
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
EQ/Short Duration Bond EQ/PIMCO Ultra Short Bond
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
EQ/Van Kampen Real Estate EQ/Mid Cap Value PLUS
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Reorganization Plan is subject to approval by shareholders of each of the
Existing Portfolios. Special shareholder meetings of the Existing Portfolios
of the Trust are scheduled to be held on or about August 26, 2009 to vote on
the Reorganization Plan. It is anticipated that, subject to shareholder
approval, the effective date of the Mergers will be on or about September 4,
2009. We will move the assets from the variable investment options (the
"replaced options") that exist in each of the Existing Portfolios to the
variable investment option (the "surviving option") that exists in the
corresponding Proposed Replacement Portfolio on the effective date of the
Mergers. The value of your interest in each surviving option will be the same
as it was in the corresponding replaced option. We will also automatically
direct any contributions made to a replaced option to the corresponding
surviving option. Any allocation election to a replaced option will be
considered as an allocation election to the corresponding surviving option.
Upon the effective date of the Reorganization Plan, all references to the
corresponding investment options of the Existing Portfolios in the Prospectus
will change to the corresponding investment options of the relevant Proposed
Replacement Portfolios.
