Dear Shareholder:                                                                                                   October 10, 2003

I am writing to ask you to vote on an important  proposal  whereby the assets of the ASAF Gabelli  All-Cap  Value Fund (the "All-Cap
Value Fund") would be acquired by the ASAF  Neuberger  Berman  Mid-Cap  Value Fund (the  "Mid-Cap  Value Fund" and together with the
All-Cap  Value Fund,  the "Funds").  The proposed  acquisition  is referred to as a merger.  The Funds are each a series of American
Skandia  Advisor Funds,  Inc.  ("ASAF").  A shareholder  meeting for the All-Cap Value Fund is scheduled for November 21, 2003. Only
shareholders of the All-Cap Value Fund will vote on the acquisition of the All-Cap Value Fund's assets by the Mid-Cap Value Fund.


This package contains  information  about the proposal and includes  materials you will need to vote. The Board of Directors of ASAF
has reviewed the proposal and recommended  that it be presented to  shareholders of the All-Cap Value Fund for their  consideration.
Although the Directors  have  determined  that the proposal is in the best  interests of  shareholders,  the final decision is up to
you.

If approved,  the proposed merger would give you the opportunity to participate in a larger fund with similar  investment  policies.
In addition,  shareholders  are expected to realize a reduction in both the net and gross annual  operating  expenses  paid on their
investment in the combined fund. The accompanying  proxy statement and prospectus  includes a detailed  description of the proposal.
Please read the enclosed materials carefully and cast your vote.  Remember,  your vote is extremely  important,  no matter how large
or small your  holdings.  By voting now,  you can help avoid  additional  costs that would be incurred  with  follow-up  letters and
calls.


To vote, you may use any of the following methods:


o By Mail.  Please complete,  date and sign your proxy card before mailing it in the enclosed  postage paid envelope.  Votes must be
received prior to November 21, 2003.

Company to approve or disapprove a Plan of  Reorganization  (the "Plan").  If shareholders of the All-Cap Value Fund vote to approve

in the Plan and described at greater length below.  The All-Cap Value Fund will then be liquidated and dissolved.

         The Meeting will be held at 100 Mulberry Street,  Gateway Center Three,  14th Floor,  Newark,  New Jersey 07102 on November
21, 2003 at 11:00 a.m.  Eastern  standard time.  The Board of Directors of the Company is soliciting  these proxies on behalf of the
All-Cap Value Fund.  This Prospectus/Proxy Statement will first be sent to shareholders on or about October 20, 2003.

         The investment objective of both the Mid-Cap Value Fund and the All-Cap Value Fund is to seek capital growth.

         This  Prospectus/Proxy  Statement gives the  information  about the proposed  reorganization  and issuance of shares of the
Mid-Cap  Value Fund that you should  know  before  investing.  You should  retain it for future  reference.  Additional  information
about the Mid-Cap Value Fund and the proposed  reorganization  has been filed with the  Securities and Exchange  Commission  ("SEC")
and can be found in the following documents:

|_|      The  Prospectus  for the  Funds  dated  March 1,  2003 is  enclosed  with and  considered  a part of this  Prospectus/Proxy
     Statement.

SUMMARY

         This is only a summary of certain  information  contained  in this  Prospectus/Proxy  Statement.  You should  read the more
complete information in the rest of this Prospectus/Proxy  Statement,  including the Plan (attached as Exhibit A) and the Prospectus
for the Funds (enclosed as Exhibit B).

The Proposal

         You are being asked to consider and approve a Plan of  Reorganization  that will have the effect of  combining  the All-Cap
Value Fund and the  Mid-Cap  Value Fund of the  Company  into a single  Fund.  If  shareholders  of the  All-Cap  Value Fund vote to
approve the Plan,  the assets of the All-Cap Value Fund will be  transferred  to the Mid-Cap Value Fund in exchange for a then equal
value of shares of the  Mid-Cap  Value  Fund.  Shareholders  will have their  shares of the  All-Cap  Value Fund  exchanged  for the
Mid-Cap  Value Fund shares of equal dollar  value based upon the values of the shares at the time the All-Cap  Value Fund assets are
transferred  to the Mid-Cap Value Fund.  The All-Cap Value Fund will be liquidated and  dissolved.  The proposed  reorganization  is
referred  to in this  Prospectus/Proxy  Statement  as the  "Transaction."  As a result of the  Transaction,  you will  cease to be a
shareholder of the All-Cap Value Fund and will become a shareholder of the Mid-Cap Value Fund.

         For the  reasons  set forth in the  "Reasons  for the  Transaction"  section,  the Board of  Directors  of the  Company has
determined that the  Transaction is in the best interests of the  shareholders of the All-Cap Value Fund and the Mid-Cap Value Fund,
and also concluded that no dilution in value would result to the shareholders of either Fund as a result of the Transaction.

The Board of Directors of the Company,  on behalf of both the All-Cap Value Fund and the Mid-Cap  Value Fund,  has approved the Plan
and unanimously recommends that you vote to approve the Plan.

Shareholder voting

         Shareholders  who own shares of the All-Cap Value Fund at the close of business on September  19, 2003 (the "Record  Date")
will be  entitled  to vote at the  Meeting,  and will be  entitled  to one vote for each full share and a  fractional  vote for each
fractional  share that they hold.  The  affirmative  vote of the holders of a majority of the total  number of shares of the All-Cap
Value Fund outstanding and entitled to vote is necessary to approve the Transaction.

         Please vote your shares as soon as you receive this  Prospectus/Proxy  Statement.  You may vote by  completing  and signing
the enclosed  ballot (the "proxy card") or over the Internet or by phone.  If you vote by any of these  methods,  your votes will be
officially cast at the Meeting by persons appointed as proxies.

         You can revoke or change your voting  instructions  at any time until the vote is taken at the  Meeting.  For more  details
about shareholder voting, see the "Voting Information" section of this Prospectus/Proxy Statement.

COMPARISONS OF IMPORTANT FEATURES OF THE FUNDS

The investment objectives and policies of the Funds

         This section  describes  the  investment  objectives  and policies of the All-Cap Value Fund and the Mid-Cap Value Fund and
the  differences  between them.  For a complete  description  of the  investment  policies and risks of the Mid-Cap Value Fund,  you
should read the Prospectus for the Funds that is enclosed with this Prospectus/Proxy Statement.

         The investment  objectives of the Funds are identical - to seek capital  growth.  The Mid-Cap Value Fund invests  primarily
in equity  securities of mid-cap  value  companies,  while the All-Cap  Value Fund invests in equity  securities of companies of all
sizes.  Both Funds take a value approach to investing and primarily  invest in securities  that are believed to be selling at prices
lower than what they are actually worth.

         The All-Cap Value Fund will primarily invest in readily  marketable  equity securities  including common stocks,  preferred
stocks and  securities  that may be converted at a later time into common stock.  The Fund may invest in the securities of companies
of all sizes, and may emphasize either larger or smaller companies at a given time based on the Fund's  sub-advisor's  assessment of
particular  companies and market  conditions.  In making stock selections,  the Fund strives to earn a 10% real rate of return.  The
Fund focuses on companies that appear  under-priced  relative to the value that the Fund's  sub-advisor  believes informed investors
would be willing to pay for the company. The Fund's sub-advisor  considers factors such as price,  earnings  expectations,  earnings
and price histories,  balance sheet  characteristics and perceived  management skills. The Fund's sub-advisor also considers changes
in  economic  and  political  outlooks as well as  individual  corporate  developments.  The Fund's  sub-advisor  will sell any Fund
investments that lose their perceived value relative to other investments.

         The  Mid-Cap  Value  Fund will  invest,  under  normal  circumstances,  at least  80% of the value of its  assets in medium
capitalization  companies.  Companies with equity market  capitalizations that fall within the range of the Russell Midcap(R)Index at
the time of investment are considered  mid-cap  companies for purposes of the Fund. Some of the Fund's assets may be invested in the
securities  of large-cap  companies  as well as in small-cap  companies.  The Fund seeks to reduce risk by  diversifying  among many
companies and industries.  Under the Fund's  value-oriented  investment  approach,  the Fund's  sub-advisor  looks for  well-managed
companies  whose stock prices are  undervalued  and that may rise in price when other  investors  realize their worth.  Factors that
the Fund's  sub-advisor may use to identify these companies  include strong  fundamentals,  such as a low  price-to-earnings  ratio,
consistent  cash flow, and a sound track record  through all phases of the market cycle.  The Fund's  sub-advisor  may also look for
other  characteristics  in a company,  such as a strong  position  relative to  competitors,  a high level of stock  ownership among
management,  or a recent sharp decline in stock price that appears to be the result of a short-term market  overreaction to negative
news.  The Fund's  sub-advisor  generally  considers  selling a stock when it  reaches a target  price,  when it fails to perform as
expected, or when other opportunities appear more attractive.

Diversification

         Both Funds are  diversified  funds.  This means that,  with respect to 75% of the value of each Fund's total  assets,  each
Fund invests in cash,  cash items,  obligations  of the U.S.  Government,  its agencies or  instrumentalities,  securities  of other
investment  companies and "other  securities." The "other  securities" are subject to the requirement that not more than 5% of total
assets  of the Fund will be  invested  in the  securities  of a single  issuer  and that the Fund will not hold more than 10% of any
single issuer's outstanding voting securities.

         The Funds may not purchase the  securities  of any issuer if, as a result,  a Fund would fail to be a  diversified  company
within the meaning of the  Investment  Company Act of 1940,  as amended  ("Investment  Company  Act") and the rules and  regulations
promulgated thereunder.

Borrowing, Issuing Senior Securities and Pledging Assets

         Neither Fund may issue senior  securities,  borrow money or pledge assets except as permitted under the Investment  Company
Act, the rules and regulations  promulgated  thereunder,  or under any exemptive  order,  SEC release,  no-action  letter or similar
relief or interpretations.

Lending

         Both Funds may lend assets to brokers,  dealers and financial  institutions.  Both Funds may make loans,  including through
loans of assets of the Fund, repurchase  agreements,  trade claims, loan participations or similar investments,  as permitted by the
Investment  Company Act. For purposes of this limitation and consistent  with the Fund's  investment  objective,  the acquisition of
bonds,  debentures,  other debt  securities  or  instruments,  or  participations  or other  interests  therein and  investments  in
government  obligations,  commercial  paper,  certificates  of deposit,  bankers'  acceptances or instruments  similar to any of the
foregoing will not be considered the making of a loan.

Illiquid Securities

         Both  Funds may  invest  in  illiquid  securities,  including  those  without a readily  available  market  and  repurchase
agreements with maturities longer than seven days. Both Funds may hold up to 15% of its net assets in illiquid securities.

Temporary Defensive Investments

         Although  each Fund  normally  invest  assets  according  to its  investment  strategy,  there  are  times  when a Fund may
temporarily  invest up to 100% of its assets in money  market  instruments  in response  to adverse  market,  economic or  political
conditions.

         For more information about the risks and restrictions  associated with these policies,  see the Funds' Prospectus,  and for
a more detailed discussion of the Funds' investments,  see the Statements of Additional  Information,  all of which are incorporated
into this Proxy Statement by reference.

Derivative Strategies

         Both Funds may use certain  derivative  strategies  to try to improve the Fund's  returns or hedging  techniques  to try to
protect its assets.  Derivatives,  such as futures,  options,  foreign  currency  forward  contracts,  options on futures and swaps,
involve  costs and can be  volatile.  With  derivatives,  the  Fund's  sub-advisor  is  trying to  predict  whether  the  underlying
investment--  a security,  market index,  currency,  interest  rate or some other asset,  rate or index-- will go up or down at some
future date.  Each Fund may use  derivatives  to try to reduce risk or to increase  return,  taking into account the Fund's  overall
investment  objective.  The Funds  cannot  guarantee  these  derivative  strategies  will work,  that the  instruments  necessary to
implement  these  strategies  will be available or that the Funds will not lose money.  While the Mid-Cap  Value Fund will not enter
into futures  contracts or related options,  it may utilize other derivative  strategies such as other types of option  transactions
and foreign currency forward contracts.

Foreign Securities

         Both  Funds  may  invest in  foreign  securities.  The  All-Cap  Value  Fund may  invest  up to 25% of its total  assets in
securities  of non-U.S.  issuers.  The Mid-Cap  Value Fund may invest up to 10% of its total  assets in  securities  denominated  in
foreign  currencies,  but may invest without  limitation in securities of foreign  companies that are  denominated in U.S.  dollars.
Investments in securities of foreign  issuers may involve risks that are not present with domestic  investments.  While  investments
in foreign securities can reduce risk by providing further  diversification,  such investments involve "sovereign risks" in addition
to the credit and market risks to which  securities  generally are subject.  Sovereign  risks includes  local  political or economic
developments,  potential  nationalization,  withholding taxes on dividend or interest  payments,  and currency blockage (which would
prevent cash from being brought back to the United  States).  Compared to United States  issuers,  there is generally  less publicly
available  information  about  foreign  issuers and there may be less  governmental  regulation  and  supervision  of foreign  stock
exchanges,  brokers and listed companies.  Foreign issuers are not generally subject to uniform  accounting,  auditing and financial
reporting  standards,  practices and requirements  comparable to those applicable to domestic issuers. In some countries,  there may
also be the  possibility of  expropriation  or confiscatory  taxation,  difficulty in enforcing  contractual and other  obligations,
political or social  instability  or  revolution,  or diplomatic  developments  that could affect  investments  in those  countries.
Securities  of some foreign  issuers are less liquid and their prices are more  volatile  than  securities  of  comparable  domestic
issuers.  Further,  it may be more  difficult  for the Company's  agents to keep  currently  informed  about  corporate  actions and
decisions that may affect the price of portfolio securities.  Brokerage  commissions on foreign securities  exchanges,  which may be
fixed,  may be higher than in the United States.  Settlement of  transactions  in some foreign  markets may be less frequent or less
reliable than in the United States, which could affect the liquidity of investments.

Investment Restrictions

         Each of the Funds has substantially identical fundamental investment restrictions.

Federal Income Tax Considerations

         Each Fund is  treated as a separate  entity  for  federal  income tax  purposes.  Each Fund has  qualified  and  elected or
intends to qualify and elect to be treated as a "regulated  investment  company" under  Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code of
1986,  as amended (the  "Code"),  and intends to continue to so qualify in the future.  As a regulated  investment  company,  a Fund
must, among other things,  (a) derive at least 90% of its gross income from dividends,  interest,  payments with respect to loans of
stock  and  securities,  gains  from the sale or other  disposition  of stock,  securities  or  foreign  currency  and other  income
(including  but not  limited to gains from  options,  futures,  and  forward  contracts)  derived  with  respect to its  business of
investing in such stock,  securities or foreign currency;  and (b) diversify its holdings so that, at the end of each quarter of its
taxable  year,  (i) at least 50% of the value of the Fund's  total  assets is  represented  by cash,  cash  items,  U.S.  Government
securities,  securities of other regulated investment  companies,  and other securities limited, in respect of any one issuer, to an
amount not greater than 5% of the Fund's total assets,  and 10% of the outstanding  voting  securities of such issuer,  and (ii) not
more than 25% of the  value of its total  assets is  invested  in the  securities  of any one  issuer  (other  than U.S.  Government
securities or securities of other regulated  investment  companies).  As a regulated  investment  company, a Fund (as opposed to its
shareholders)  will not be subject to federal income taxes on the net investment  income and capital gain that it distributes to its
shareholders,  provided that at least 90% of its net  investment  income and realized net  short-term  capital gain in excess of net
long-term capital loss for the taxable year is distributed in accordance with the Code's timing requirements

         The  Transaction  may entail  various tax  consequences  which are  discussed  under the caption "Tax  Consequences  of the
Transaction."


Risks of investing in the Funds

         Like all  investments,  an  investment in either Fund involves  risk.  There is no assurance  that either of the Funds will
meet its investment  objective.  As with any fund investing  primarily in equity  securities,  the value of the securities held by a
Fund may decline.  Stocks can decline for many reasons,  including reasons related to the particular company,  the industry of which
it is a part, or the securities markets generally.  These declines may be substantial.

         The risk to which a capital  growth fund is subject  depends in part on the size of the  companies in which the  particular
fund invests.  Securities of smaller  companies  tend to be subject to more abrupt and erratic price  movements  than  securities of
larger  companies,  in part because they may have limited  product  lines,  market or financial  resources.  Overall,  the Funds are
exposed to similar risks in that the Mid-Cap Value Fund invests primarily in  medium-capitalization  companies and the All-Cap Value
Fund invests in equity securities  without regard to capitalization,  and may include large,  medium and small companies at the same
time.  However,  because the  investment  policies of the All-Cap  Value Fund offer the ability to invest in companies of all sizes,
the  All-Cap  Value Fund could be subject  to  somewhat  less risk than the  Mid-Cap  Value  Fund when  emphasizing  investments  in
large-cap  equity  securities  and subject to a greater level of risk than the Mid-Cap Value Fund when  emphasizing  investments  in
securities  of small  companies.  Further,  value  stocks are  believed  to be selling at prices  lower than what they are  actually
worth,  while growth stocks are those of companies that are expected to grow at above-average  rates.  Value investing  historically
has involved less risk than  investing in growth  companies,  although this will not always be the case.  The stocks  purchased by a
value fund may remain  undervalued  during a short or extended  period of time.  This may happen  because value stocks as a category
lose favor with  investors  compared to growth  stocks,  or because of a failure to  anticipate  which  stocks or  industries  would
benefit from changing  market or economic  conditions.  Both the All-Cap Value Fund and the Mid-Cap Value Fund take a value approach
to investing.

Management of the Company and the Funds

         American  Skandia  Investment  Services,  Inc.  ("ASISI"),  One  Corporate  Drive,  Shelton,  Connecticut,  and  Prudential
Investments LLC ("PI"),  Gateway Center Three, 100 Mulberry Street,  Newark,  New Jersey,  serve as co-managers (each an "Investment
Manager" and together the "Investment  Managers") pursuant to an investment  management agreement with the Company on behalf of each
Fund (the "Management  Agreement").  Under the Management  Agreement,  PI, as co-manager,  will provide supervision and oversight of
ASISI's investment  management  responsibilities with respect to the Company.  Pursuant to the Management Agreement,  the Investment
Managers will jointly  administer each Fund's  business  affairs and supervise each Fund's  investments.  Subject to approval by the
Board of  Directors,  the  Investment  Managers  may select and employ one or more  sub-advisors  for a Fund,  who will have primary
responsibility  for  determining  what  investments  the Fund will  purchase,  retain and sell.  Also subject to the approval of the
Board of Directors,  the  Investment  Managers may  reallocate a Fund's assets among  sub-advisors  including (to the extent legally
permissible) affiliated sub-advisors, consistent with a Fund's investment objectives.

         The Company has obtained an exemption  from the SEC that permits an Investment  Manager to change  sub-advisors  for a Fund
and to enter into new sub-advisory  agreements,  without obtaining  shareholder approval of the changes. Any such sub-advisor change
would continue to be subject to approval by the Board of Directors of the Company.  This  exemption  (which is similar to exemptions
granted to other  investment  companies  that are  operated  in a similar  manner as the  Company) is  intended  to  facilitate  the
efficient supervision and management of the sub-advisors by the Investment Managers and the Directors of the Company.

         The Investment  Managers  currently engage the following  sub-advisors to manage the investments of each Fund in accordance
with the Fund's  investment  objective,  policies and  limitations  and any  investment  guidelines  established  by the  Investment
Managers.  Each  sub-advisor is responsible,  subject to the supervision and control of the Investment  Managers,  for the purchase,
retention and sale of securities in the Fund's investment portfolio under its management.

         GAMCO Investors, Inc. ("GAMCO"),  with principal offices located at One Corporate Center, Rye, New York 10580-1434,  serves
as  Sub-advisor  to the All-Cap  Value Fund.  GAMCO managed  approximately  $9.97 billion in assets as of December 31, 2002 and is a
wholly-owned  subsidiary  of Gabelli Asset  Management  Inc.  Mario J. Gabelli,  CFA, is primarily  responsible  for the  day-to-day
management of the All-Cap Value Fund.  Mr.  Gabelli has managed the All-Cap Value Fund since its inception in September,  2000.  Mr.
Gabelli  has been Chief  Executive  Officer  and Chief  Investment  Officer  of GAMCO and its  predecessor  since the  predecessor's
inception in 1978.

         Neuberger Berman Management Inc. ("NB  Management"),  605 Third Avenue,  New York, NY 10158,  serves as sub-advisor for the
Mid-Cap  Value Fund.  NB  Management  and its  predecessor  firms have  specialized  in the  management  of mutual funds since 1950.
Neuberger Berman, LLC ("Neuberger  Berman"),  an affiliate of NB Management,  acts as a principal broker in the purchase and sale of
portfolio  securities for the Funds for which it serves as Sub-advisor,  and provides NB Management  with certain  assistance in the
management of the Funds without added cost to the Funds or ASISI.  Neuberger Berman and its affiliates manage  securities  accounts,
including mutual funds,  that had approximately  $56.1 billion of assets as of December 31, 2002. The portfolio manager  responsible
for the day-to-day  management of the Mid-Cap Value Fund is Andrew  Wellington.  Mr. Wellington has been managing the Fund since May
2003. Mr.  Wellington has been with NB Management  since 2001,  where he is currently a Managing  Director and a Portfolio  Manager.
From 2000 until 2001,  Mr.  Wellington  served as a Portfolio  Manager at Pzena  Investment  Management  ("Pzena").  From 1996 until
1999, he served as a Senior Research Analyst at Pzena.

Fee Arrangements

         The Funds have  comparable fee  arrangements.  Under the  Management  Agreement with respect to the All-Cap Value Fund, the
Fund is  obligated  to pay ASISI an annual  investment  management  fee equal to .95% of its average  daily net  assets.  Similarly,
under the  Management  Agreement  with respect to the Mid-Cap  Value Fund,  the Fund is obligated to pay ASISI an annual  investment
management  fee equal to 0.90% of its  average  daily  net  assets.  ASISI  pays  GAMCO and NB  Management  a  sub-advisory  fee for
sub-advisory  services for the All-Cap Value Fund and the Mid-Cap Value Fund,  respectively.  ASISI pays these  sub-advisory fees at
no additional costs to the Funds.  Under the current  sub-advisory  agreement for the All-Cap Value Fund, ASISI pays GAMCO an annual
sub-advisory  fee equal to the  following  percentages  of the combined  average  daily net assets of the All-Cap Value Fund and the
series of American  Skandia Trust that is managed by the sub-advisor  and identified by the sub-advisor and the Investment  Managers
as being  similar to the All-Cap  Value Fund:  0.50% of the portion of the combined  average  daily net assets not in excess of $500
million;  plus 0.40% of the portion in excess of $500 million.  GAMCO has  voluntarily  agreed to waive a portion of its fee so that
the following fee schedule based on combined assets is in effect:  0.40% of the portion of combined  average daily net assets not in
excess of $500 million;  plus 0.35% of the portion of combined assets over $500 million but not in excess of $1 billion;  plus 0.30%
of the portion of combined  assets over $1 billion.  Under the current  sub-advisory  agreement  for the Mid-Cap  Value Fund,  ASISI
pays NB  Management  an  annual  sub-advisory  fee  equal to 0.40% of the  Fund's  average  daily  net  assets.  NB  Management  has
voluntarily  agreed to waive a portion of its fee so that the following fee schedule based on the combined  average daily net assets
of the Mid-Cap Value Fund, the ASAF Neuberger  Berman Mid-Cap Growth Fund and the series of American  Skandia Trust that are managed
by the  sub-advisor  and  identified by the  sub-advisor  and  Investment  Managers as being similar to the Fund and ASAF  Neuberger
Berman  Mid-Cap  Growth  Fund is in  effect:  0.40% of the  portion  of the  combined  average  daily net assets not in excess of $1
billion; plus 0.35% of the portion over $1 billion.  Voluntary fee waivers may be revoked by the sub-advisor at any time.

         During the calendar year ended  December 31, 2002,  the All-Cap Value Fund paid $743,861 in investment  management  fees to
ASISI.  If the fee rate  applicable to the Mid-Cap  Value Fund had been in effect  during such period,  the Mid-Cap Value Fund would
have paid $704,710 in investment  management fees to ASISI.  Because the Investment  Management fee rates currently paid to ASISI by
the All-Cap  Value Fund are greater than the fee rates paid by the Mid-Cap  Value Fund,  former  shareholders  of the All-Cap  Value
Fund will pay a lesser  investment  advisory fee rate after becoming  shareholders  of the Mid-Cap Value Fund upon completion of the
Transaction.

Distribution Plan

         The  Company  adopted a  Distribution  and  Service  Plan  (commonly  known as a "12b-1  Plan") for each class of shares to
compensate the Funds' distributor for its services and costs in distributing shares and servicing  shareholder  accounts.  Under the
Distribution  and Service  Plan for Class A shares,  each Fund pays the  distributor  0.50% of the Fund's  average  daily net assets
attributable  to Class A shares.  Under the Plans for Class B, X and C shares,  each Fund pays the  distributor  1.00% of the Fund's
average daily net assets  attributable  to the relevant Class of shares.  Because these fees are paid out of the Funds' assets on an
ongoing  basis,  these fees may,  over time,  increase the cost of an investment in the Fund and may be more costly than other types
of sales  charges.  The  distributor  uses  distribution  and service fees received  under each 12b-1 Plan to  compensate  qualified
dealers for services  provided in connection  with the sale of shares and the maintenance of shareholder  accounts.  The distributor
has assigned its right to receive distribution and service fees under the Class B and X 12b-1 Plans to a third party.

Valuation

         The net asset value ("NAV") per share is  determined  for each class of shares for each Fund as of the time of the close of
the NYSE  (which is  normally  4:00 p.m.  Eastern  Time) on each  business  day by  dividing  the value of the Fund's  total  assets
attributable to a class, less any liabilities,  by the number of total shares of that class outstanding.  In general,  the assets of
each Fund are valued on the basis of market quotations.  However,  in certain  circumstances where market quotations are not readily
available or where market  quotations for a particular  security or asset are believed to be incorrect,  securities and other assets
are valued by methods that are believed to accurately reflect their fair value.

Purchases, Redemptions, Exchanges and Distributions

         The  purchase  policies  for each Fund are  identical.  The  offering  price is the NAV plus any initial  sales charge that
applies.  Class A shares are sold at NAV plus an initial  sales  charge  that  varies  depending  on the amount of your  investment.
Class B shares are sold at NAV per share  without an initial  sales  charge.  However,  if Class B shares are redeemed  within seven
years of their  purchase,  a contingent  deferred  sales charge  ("CDSC") will be deducted  from the  redemption  proceeds.  Class C
shares are sold at NAV per share plus an initial  sales charge of 1% of the offering  price.  If Class C shares are redeemed  within
12 months of the first  business  day of  calendar  month of their  purchase,  a CDSC of 1.0% will be deducted  from the  redemption
proceeds.  Class X shares are sold at NAV per share without an initial  sales  charge.  In addition,  investors  purchasing  Class X
shares will receive,  as a bonus,  additional  shares having a value equal to 2.50% of the amount invested.  Although Class X shares
are sold without an initial sales charge,  if Class X shares are redeemed within 8 years of their purchase,  a CDSC will be deducted
from the redemption proceeds.

         The  redemption  policies  for each Fund are  identical.  Your  shares will be sold at the next NAV  determined  after your
order to sell is received,  less any applicable CDSC imposed.  Refer to the Funds' Prospectus for more information  regarding how to
sell shares.

         Shares  of each  Fund may be  exchanged  for  shares  of the same  class  of  other  Funds at NAV per  share at the time of
exchange.  Exchanges  of shares  involve a  redemption  of the shares of the Fund you own and a purchase of shares of another  Fund.
Shares are normally  redeemed and purchased in the exchange  transaction on the business day on which the Transfer Agent receives an
exchange request that is in proper form, if the request is received by the close of the NYSE that day.

         Each Fund will  distribute  substantially  all of its income and capital  gains to  shareholder  each year.  Each Fund will
declare dividends, if any, annually.

1. Under  certain  circumstances,  purchases of Class A shares not subject to an initial  sales  charge  (load) will be subject to a
contingent  deferred  sales  charge  (load)  ("CDSC")  if  redeemed  within 12  months of the  calendar  month of  purchase.  For an
additional discussion of the Class A CDSC, see this Prospectus under "How to Buy Shares."
2. A $10 fee may be imposed for wire  transfers of redemption  proceeds.  For an  additional  discussion  of wire  redemptions,  see
this Prospectus under "How to Redeem Shares."
3. If you  purchase  Class B or X shares,  you do not pay an initial  sales  charge but you may pay a CDSC if you redeem some or all
of your shares  before the end of the  seventh (in the case of Class B shares) or eighth (in the case of Class X shares)  year after
which you purchased  such shares.  The CDSC is 6%, 5%, 4%, 3%, 2%, 2% and 1% for  redemptions  of Class B shares  occurring in years
one through  seven,  respectively.  The CDSC is 6%, 5%, 4%, 4%, 3%, 2%, 2% and 1% for  redemptions  of Class X shares  occurring  in
years one through  eight,  respectively.  No CDSC is charged after these  periods.  If you purchase  Class C shares,  you may pay an
initial  sales  charge  of 1% and you may  incur a CDSC if you  redeem  some or all of your  Class C shares  within 12 months of the
calendar month of purchase.  For a discussion of the Class B, X and C CDSC, see this Prospectus under "How to Buy Shares."

Expense Examples

Full  Redemption - These  examples are intended to help you compare the cost of investing in each Fund with the cost of investing in
other  mutual  funds,  and the cost of  investing  in the  Mid-Cap  Value Fund after the  Transaction.  They  assume that you invest
$10,000,  that you receive a 5% return each year,  and that the Funds'  total  operating  expenses  remain the same.  Although  your
actual costs may be higher or lower, based on the above assumptions your costs would be:

Performance

         The bar charts show the  performance  of the Class A shares of each Fund for each full  calendar  year the Fund has been in
operation.  The first table below each bar chart shows each such Fund's best and worst quarters  during the periods  included in the
bar chart.  The second  table shows the average  annual  total  returns  before taxes for each Class of each Fund for 2002 and since
inception,  as well as the  average  annual  total  returns  after  taxes on  distributions  and after  taxes on  distributions  and
redemptions for Class A shares of each Fund for 2002 and since inception.

         This  information may help provide an indication of each Fund's risks by showing  changes in performance  from year to year
and by comparing the Fund's  performance  with that of a broad-based  securities  index.  The average annual  figures  reflect sales
charges;  the  other  figures  do not,  and  would be lower  if they  did.  All  figures  assume  reinvestment  of  dividends.  Past
performance does not necessarily indicate how a Fund will perform in the future.

                  After-tax  returns  are shown for Class A shares  only.  The  after-tax  returns  for  other  Classes  will  vary.
                  After-tax returns are calculated using the historical  highest individual federal marginal income tax rates and do
                  not  reflect the impact of state and local  taxes.  During  periods of negative  NAV  performance,  the  after-tax
                  returns assume the investor  receives a write-off at the historical  highest  individual  federal  marginal income
                  rate.  Actual  after-tax  returns  depend on an  investor's  tax  situation  and may differ from those shown,  and
                  after-tax returns are not relevant to investors who hold their Fund shares through tax-deferred  arrangements such
                  as 401(k) plans or individual retirement accounts.

                  * Inception date: August 19, 1998
                  After-tax  returns  are shown for Class A shares  only.  The  after-tax  returns  for  other  Classes  will  vary.
                  After-tax returns are calculated using the historical  highest individual federal marginal income tax rates and do
                  not  reflect the impact of state and local  taxes.  During  periods of negative  NAV  performance,  the  after-tax
                  returns assume the investor  receives a write-off at the historical  highest  individual  federal  marginal income
                  rate.  Actual  after-tax  returns  depend on an  investor's  tax  situation  and may differ from those shown,  and
                  after-tax returns are not relevant to investors who hold their Fund shares through tax-deferred  arrangements such
                  as 401(k) plans or individual retirement accounts.

                  Part of the historical  performance of the Fund is due to purchases of securities sold in Initial Public Offerings
                  ("IPOs")  that  materially  affected the  performance  of the Fund.  The effect of IPOs on the Fund's  performance
                  depends on a variety of factors  including the number of IPOs that the Fund invests in, whether and to what extent
                  a security  purchased in an IPO appreciates in value, and the asset base of the Fund.  Although Funds may purchase
                  IPOs,  not all  such  purchases  may  materially  affect  performance.  There  is no  guarantee  that  the  Fund's
                  investments in IPOs, if any, will continue to have a similar impact on the Fund's performance.

REASONS FOR THE TRANSACTION

         The  Directors,  including  all of the  Directors  who  are not  "interested  persons"  of the  Company  (the  "Independent
Directors")  have  unanimously  determined that the Transaction  would be in the best interests of the shareholders of All-Cap Value
and the Mid-Cap  Value Funds and that the  interests of the  shareholders  of All-Cap Value and the Mid-Cap Value Funds would not be
diluted as a result of the  Transaction.  At a meeting  held on July 25,  2003,  the Board  considered  a number of factors  that it
believes benefits the shareholders of All-Cap Value Fund, including the following:

o the compatibility of the Funds' investment objectives, policies and restrictions;

o the relative past and current  growth in assets and  investment  performance  of the Funds and future  prospects for Mid-Cap Value
Fund;

o the relative expense ratios of the Funds;

o the tax consequences of the merger; and

o the relative size of the All-Cap Value Fund and the lack of growth in the assets and the number of  shareholders  of All-Cap Value
Fund.

         At the July 25 meeting,  PI and ASISI  recommended  the merger to the Board.  In  recommending  the merger,  the Investment
Manager  advised the Board that the Funds have identical  investment  objectives,  and similar  policies and investment  portfolios.
Further,  PI advised that while the strategy of the All-Cap Value Fund allows for  investments in equity  securities of companies of
all sizes,  since its inception is September,  2000 the All-Cap Value Fund has settled into the  mid/large-cap  value fund category.
Thus, the risk exposure to each of the Funds is also  substantially  similar.  The Investment  Managers advised the Board that as of
March 31,  2003,  the  All-Cap  Value  Fund had assets of  approximately  $71  million  while the  Mid-Cap  Value Fund had assets of
approximately  $192.5  million,  and the All-Cap Value Fund had a higher cost structure and higher gross annual  operating  expenses
compared to the Mid-Cap  Value Fund.  Accordingly,  by merging the Funds,  All-Cap  Value  shareholders  would enjoy a greater asset
base and lower  cost  structure.  The  Board  considered  that if the  merger is  approved,  shareholders  of  All-Cap  Value  Fund,
regardless of the class of shares they own,  should  realize a reduction in the gross annual  operating  expenses  (that is, without
any waivers or reimbursements) paid on their investment.

         The Board,  including a majority of the Independent  Directors,  unanimously  concluded that the Transaction is in the best
interests of the  shareholders  of the All-Cap  Value Fund and the Mid-Cap  Value Fund and that no dilution of value would result to
the  shareholders  of the All-Cap Value Fund or the Mid-Cap Value Fund from the  Transaction.  Consequently,  the Board approved the
Plan and recommended that shareholders of the All-Cap Value Fund vote to approve the Transaction.

         For the reasons discussed above, the Board of Directors unanimously recommends that you vote For the Plan.

         If  shareholders  of the All-Cap Value Fund do not approve the Plan,  the Board will  consider  other  possible  courses of
action for the All-Cap Value Fund,  including,  among others,  consolidation of the All-Cap Value Fund with one or more Funds of the
Company other than the Mid-Cap Value Fund or unaffiliated funds.

INFORMATION ABOUT THE TRANSACTION

         This is only a summary of the Plan.  You should read the actual Plan attached as Exhibit A.

Closing of the Transaction

         If shareholders of the All-Cap Value Fund approve the Plan, the  Transaction  will take place after various  conditions are
satisfied  by the Company on behalf of the All-Cap  Value Fund and the Mid-Cap  Value Fund,  including  the  preparation  of certain
documents.  The Company  will  determine a specific  date for the actual  Transaction  to take  place.  This is called the  "closing
date."  If the shareholders of the All-Cap Value Fund do not approve the Plan, the Transaction will not take place.

         If the  shareholders  of the All-Cap Value Fund approve the Plan,  the All-Cap Value Fund will deliver to the Mid-Cap Value
Fund  substantially  all of its assets on the closing date. As a result,  shareholders  of the All-Cap Value Fund will  beneficially
own shares of the Mid-Cap  Value Fund that,  as of the date of the  exchange,  have a value equal to the dollar  value of the assets
delivered to the Mid-Cap Value Fund. The stock  transfer  books of the All-Cap Value Fund will be permanently  closed on the closing
date.  Requests to transfer or redeem  assets  allocated  to the All-Cap  Value Fund may be  submitted  at any time before 4:00 p.m.
Eastern  standard time on the closing date;  requests that are received in proper form prior to that time will be effected  prior to
the closing.

         To the  extent  permitted  by law,  the  Company  may amend the Plan  without  shareholder  approval.  It may also agree to
terminate and abandon the  Transaction at any time before or, to the extent  permitted by law, after the approval by shareholders of
the All-Cap Value Fund.

Expenses of the Transaction

         The expenses  resulting  from the  Transaction  will be paid by PI (or its  affiliates).  The  portfolio  securities of the
All-Cap  Value Fund will be  transferred  in-kind to the Mid-Cap Value Fund prior to the  restructuring  of the All-Cap Value Fund's
investment portfolio.  Accordingly, the Transaction will entail little or no expenses in connection with portfolio restructuring.

Tax Consequences of the Transaction

         The Transaction is intended to qualify for U.S.  federal income tax purposes as a tax-free  reorganization  under the Code.
It is a condition to each Fund's  obligation to complete the Transaction  that the Funds will have received an opinion from Stradley
Ronon Stevens & Young, LLP, counsel to the Funds,  based upon  representations  made by the All-Cap Value Fund and the Mid-Cap Value
Fund, and upon certain assumptions, substantially to the effect that:

1. The  acquisition  by the Mid-Cap Value Fund of the assets of the All-Cap  Value Fund in exchange  solely for voting shares of the
Mid-Cap Value Fund and the assumption by the Mid-Cap Value Fund of the  liabilities  of the All-Cap Value Fund, if any,  followed by
the distribution of Mid-Cap Value Fund shares acquired by the All-Cap Value Fund pro rata to their  shareholders,  will constitute a
reorganization  within the meaning of  Section 368(a)(1)  of the Code,  and the Mid-Cap  Value Fund and the All-Cap  Value Fund each
will be "a party to a reorganization" within the meaning of Section 368(b) of the Code;

2. The  shareholders  of the All-Cap  Value Fund will not  recognize  gain or loss upon the  exchange of all of their  shares of the
All-Cap Value Fund solely for shares of  the Mid-Cap Value Fund, as described above and in the Plan;

3. No gain or loss will be  recognized  by the  All-Cap  Value Fund upon the  transfer  of its assets to the  Mid-Cap  Value Fund in
exchange  solely for Class A,  Class B,  Class C,  and Class X shares of the Mid-Cap  Value Fund and the  assumption  by the Mid-Cap
Value Fund of the  liabilities  of the All-Cap  Value Fund,  if any. In addition,  no gain or loss will be recognized by the Mid-Cap
Value Fund on the  distribution  of such shares to the  shareholders  of the All-Cap Value Fund in  liquidation of the All-Cap Value
Fund;

4. No gain or loss will be  recognized  by the Mid-Cap  Value Fund upon the  acquisition  of the assets of the All-Cap Value Fund in
exchange solely for shares of the Mid-Cap Value Fund and the assumption of the liabilities of the All-Cap Value Fund, if any;

5.  Mid-Cap  Value Fund's basis for the assets  acquired  from the All-Cap  Value Fund will be the same as the basis of these assets
when held by the All-Cap Value Fund immediately  before the transfer,  and the holding period of such assets acquired by the Mid-Cap
Value Fund will include the holding period of these assets when held by the All-Cap Value Fund;

6.  All-Cap  Value  Fund's  shareholders'  basis for the shares of the Mid-Cap  Value Fund to be  received  by them  pursuant to the
reorganization will be the same as their basis in the All-Cap Value Fund shares exchanged; and

7. The holding  period of the Mid-Cap  Value Fund shares to be received by the  shareholders  of the All-Cap Value Fund will include
the holding  period of their  All-Cap  Value Fund shares  exchanged  provided  such  All-Cap  Value Fund shares were held as capital
assets on the date of the exchange.

         Shareholders  of the All-Cap Value Fund should  consult their tax advisers  regarding the tax  consequences  to them of the
Transaction in light of their  individual  circumstances.  In addition,  because the foregoing  discussion  relates only to the U.S.
federal income tax  consequences  of the  Transaction,  shareholders  also should consult their tax advisers as to state,  local and
foreign tax consequences to them, if any, of the Transaction.

Characteristics of the Mid-Cap Value Fund shares.

         Shares of the Mid-Cap  Value Fund will be  distributed  to  shareholders  of the All-Cap  Value Fund and will have the same
legal  characteristics  as the shares of the  Mid-Cap  Value  Fund with  respect to such  matters as voting  rights,  assessibility,
conversion rights, and transferability.


Capitalizations of the Funds and Capitalization after the Transaction.

         The  following  table sets forth,  as of April 30,  2003 the  capitalization  of shares of the  All-Cap  Value Fund and the
Mid-Cap Value Fund.  The table also shows the projected  capitalization  of the Mid-Cap Value Fund shares as adjusted to give effect
to the proposed  Transaction.  The  capitalization  of the Mid-Cap  Value Fund is likely to be  different  when the  Transaction  is
consummated.

VOTING INFORMATION

         Shareholders  of record of the  All-Cap  Value Fund on the Record  Date will be  entitled  to vote at the  Meeting.  On the
Record Date, there were 8,222,248 shares of the All-Cap Value Fund issued and outstanding.

         The  presence  in person or by proxy of the  holders of a majority  of the  outstanding  shares of the Fund is  required to
constitute a quorum at the Meeting.  Shares  beneficially  held by  shareholders  present in person or  represented  by proxy at the
Meeting will be counted for the purpose of  calculating  the votes cast on the issues  before the  Meeting.  If a quorum is present,
the  affirmative  vote of the  holders  of a  majority  of the total  number of shares of capital  stock of the  All-Cap  Value Fund
outstanding  and  entitled to vote is  necessary to approve the Plan.  Each  shareholder  will be entitled to one vote for each full
share, and a fractional vote for each fractional share of the All-Cap Value Fund held at the close of business on the Record Date.

         Shares  held by  shareholders  present  in person or  represented  by proxy at the  Meeting  will be  counted  both for the
purposes  of  determining  the  presence  of a quorum  and for  calculating  the votes cast on the issues  before  the  Meeting.  An
abstention  by a  shareholder,  either by proxy or by vote in person at a Meeting,  has the same  effect as a negative  vote.  Under
existing  New York  Stock  Exchange  rules,  it is not  expected  that  brokers  will be  permitted  to vote  Fund  shares  in their
discretion.  In addition,  there is only one  proposal  being  presented  for a  shareholder  vote.  As a result,  the Fund does not
anticipate any broker non-votes.

.........Shareholders  having more than one account in the Fund  generally  will  receive a single  proxy  statement  and a separate
proxy card for each account.  It is important to mark, sign, date and return all proxy cards received.

.........In the event that  sufficient  votes to approve the Plan are not received,  the persons named as proxies may propose one or
more  adjournments  of the Meeting to permit further  solicitation  of proxies.  Any such  adjournment  will require the affirmative
vote of a majority of those shares  represented  at the Meeting in person or by proxy.  The persons named as proxies will vote those
proxies that they are entitled to vote FOR or AGAINST any such adjournment in their discretion.

.........The Company is not required to hold and will not  ordinarily  hold annual  shareholders'  meetings.  The Board of Directors
may call special  meetings of the  shareholders  for action by  shareholder  vote as required by the  Investment  Company Act or the
Company's Articles of Incorporation.

.........Pursuant to rules adopted by the SEC, a shareholder may include in proxy  statements  relating to annual and other meetings
of the  shareholders  of the Company certain  proposals for shareholder  action which he or she intends to introduce at such special
meetings;  provided,  among other things,  that such proposal is received by the Company a reasonable  time before a solicitation of
proxies is made for such meeting.  Timely submission of a proposal does not necessarily mean that the proposal will be included.

         The Board of Directors  intends to bring before the Meeting the matter set forth in the  foregoing  Notice.  The  Directors
do not expect any other  business to be brought before the Meeting.  If,  however,  any other matters are properly  presented to the
Meeting for action,  it is intended that the persons  named in the enclosed  proxy will vote in accordance  with their  judgment.  A
shareholder  executing  and returning a proxy may revoke it at any time prior to its exercise by written  notice of such  revocation
to the Secretary of the Company, by execution of a subsequent proxy, or by voting in person at the Meeting.


How to vote.

         You can vote your shares in any one of four ways:

o........By mail, with the enclosed proxy card.

o        In person at the Meeting.

                  o        By phone

                  o        Over the Internet

         If you simply sign and date the proxy but give no voting  instructions,  your shares will be voted in favor of the Plan and
in accordance with the views of management upon any unexpected matters that come before the Meeting or adjournment of the Meeting.

Solicitation of voting instructions.

         Voting  instructions  will be solicited  principally by mailing this  Prospectus/Proxy  Statement and its  enclosures,  but
instructions  also may be solicited by telephone,  facsimile,  through  electronic means such as e-mail, or in person by officers or
representatives of the Company. In addition, the Company has engaged Georgeson Shareholder  Communications,  Inc.  ("Georgeson"),  a
professional proxy solicitation  firm, to assist in the solicitation of proxies.  As the Meeting date approaches,  you may receive a
phone call from a  representative  of Georgeson if the Company has not yet received your vote.  Georgeson may ask you for authority,
by telephone, to permit Georgeson to execute your voting instructions on your behalf.

                                                       PLAN OF REORGANIZATION


         THIS PLAN OF  REORGANIZATION  (the "Plan") is made as of this 25th day of July,  2003, by American  Skandia  Advisor Funds,
Inc. (the  "Company"),  a business trust  organized  under the laws of the State of Maryland with its principal place of business at
One Corporate Drive,  Shelton,  Connecticut  06484, on behalf of the ASAF Neuberger Berman Mid-Cap Value Fund (the "Acquiring Fund")
and the ASAF Gabelli  All-Cap  Value Fund (the  "Acquired  Fund"),  both series of the Company.  Together,  the  Acquiring  Fund and
Acquired Fund are referred to as the "Funds."

         The reorganization  (hereinafter referred to as the "Reorganization")  will consist of (i) the acquisition by the Acquiring
Fund, of  substantially  all of the property,  assets and goodwill of the Acquired Fund and the  assumption by the Acquiring Fund of
all of the  liabilities of the Acquired Fund in exchange  solely for full and fractional  shares of beneficial  interest,  par value
$0.001 each, of the Acquiring Fund  ("Acquiring  Fund Shares");  (ii) the  distribution of Acquiring Fund Shares to the shareholders
of the  Acquired  Fund  according  to their  respective  interests  in complete  liquidation  of the  Acquired  Fund;  and (iii) the
dissolution  of the  Acquired  Fund as soon as  practicable  after the  closing  (as  defined in Section 3,  hereinafter  called the
"Closing"), all upon and subject to the terms and conditions of this Plan hereinafter set forth.

         In order to consummate  the Plan,  the following  actions shall be taken by the Company on behalf of the Acquiring Fund and
the Acquired Fund:

1.       Sale and Transfer of Assets, Liquidation and Dissolution of Acquired Fund.

         (a)      Subject  to the terms and  conditions  of this Plan,  the  Company on behalf of the  Acquired  Fund shall  convey,
transfer and deliver to the Acquiring  Fund at the Closing all of the Acquired  Fund's then existing  assets,  free and clear of all
liens,  encumbrances,  and claims whatsoever (other than  shareholders'  rights of redemption),  except for cash, bank deposits,  or
cash  equivalent  securities  in an  estimated  amount  necessary  to (i) pay the  costs  and  expenses  in  carrying  out this Plan
(including,  but not limited to, fees of counsel and  accountants,  and expenses of its  liquidation  and  dissolution  contemplated
hereunder).  (ii)  discharge  its unpaid  liabilities  on its books at the closing  date (as defined in section 3,  hereinafter  the
"Closing  Date"),  including,  but not limited to, its income  dividends and capital gains  distributions,  if any,  payable for the
period  prior to, and  through,  the  Closing  Date;  and (iii) pay such  contingent  liabilities  as the Board of  Directors  shall
reasonably  deem to exist  against the Acquired  Fund,  if any, at the Closing  Date,  for which  contingent  and other  appropriate
liabilities  reserves shall be established on the Acquired  Fund's books  (hereinafter  "Net Assets").  The Acquired Fund shall also
retain any and all rights  that it may have over and  against  any person  that may have  accrued up to and  including  the close of
business on the Closing Date.

         (b)      Subject  to the terms and  conditions  of this Plan,  the  Company  on behalf of the  Acquiring  Fund shall at the
Closing  deliver to the Acquired Fund the number of Acquiring  Fund Shares,  determined by dividing the net asset value per share of
the shares of the Acquired  Fund  ("Acquired  Fund  Shares") on the Closing  Date by the net asset value per share of the  Acquiring
Fund  Shares,  and  multiplying  the result  thereof by the number of  outstanding  Acquired  Fund Shares as of the close of regular
trading on the New York Stock  Exchange (the "NYSE") on the Closing  Date.  All such values shall be determined in the manner and as
of the time set forth in Section 2 hereof.

         (c)      Immediately  following the Closing,  the Acquired Fund shall  distribute pro rata to its shareholders of record as
of the close of business on the Closing  Date,  the Acquiring  Fund Shares  received by the Acquired Fund pursuant to this Section 1
and then shall terminate and dissolve.  Such  liquidation and  distribution  shall be accomplished by the  establishment of accounts
on the share  records of the Company  relating to the  Acquiring  Fund and noting in such accounts the type and amounts of Acquiring
Fund Shares that former Acquired Fund  shareholders are due based on their respective  holdings of the Acquired Fund as of the close
of business on the Closing  Date.  Fractional  Acquiring  Fund Shares shall be carried to the third  decimal  place.  The  Acquiring
Fund shall not issue certificates representing the Acquiring Fund shares in connection with such exchange.

2.       Valuation.

         (a)      The value of the Acquired  Fund's Net Assets to be transferred  to the Acquiring Fund hereunder  shall be computed
as of the close of regular trading on the NYSE on the Closing Date (the "Valuation  Time") using the valuation  procedures set forth
in Company's currently effective prospectus.

         (b)      The net asset value of a share of the  Acquiring  Fund shall be  determined  to the third  decimal point as of the
Valuation Time using the valuation procedures set forth in the Company's currently effective prospectus.

         (c)      The net asset value of a share of the  Acquired  Fund shall be  determined  to the third  decimal  point as of the
Valuation Time using the valuation procedures set forth in the Company's currently effective prospectus.

3.       Closing and Closing Date.

         The  consummation of the  transactions  contemplated  hereby shall take place at the Closing (the  "Closing").  The date of
the Closing  (the  "Closing  Date")  shall be December  12,  2003,  or such  earlier or later date as  determined  by the  Company's
officers.  The Closing shall take place at the principal  office of the Company at 5:00 P.M.  Eastern time on the Closing Date.  The
Company on behalf of the Acquired  Fund shall have  provided for delivery as of the Closing of the Acquired  Fund's Net Assets to be
transferred to the account of the Acquiring Fund at the Acquiring Fund's  Custodian,  The JP Morgan Chase Bank, 4 MetroTech  Center,
Brooklyn,  NY 11245.  Also,  the Company on behalf of the Acquired  Fund shall  produce at the Closing a list of names and addresses
of the  shareholders  of record  of the  Acquired  Fund  Shares  and the  number of full and  fractional  shares  owned by each such
shareholder,  all as of the Valuation  Time,  certified by its transfer agent or by its President or  Vice-President  to the best of
its or his or her  knowledge  and  belief.  The  Company on behalf of the  Acquiring  Fund shall  issue and  deliver a  confirmation
evidencing  the  Acquiring  Fund Shares to be credited to the Acquired  Fund's  account on the Closing Date to the  Secretary of the
Company,  or shall provide  evidence  satisfactory  to the Acquired Fund that the Acquiring  Fund Shares have been  registered in an
account on the books of the Acquiring Fund in such manner as the Company on behalf of Acquired Fund may request.

8.       Conditions Precedent to be Fulfilled by Company on behalf of the Funds.

         The  consummation  of the Plan with respect to the  Acquiring  Fund and the Acquired Fund shall be subject to the following
conditions:

         (a)      That:  (i) all the  representations  and  warranties  contained  herein  concerning  the  Funds  shall be true and
correct as of the Closing with the same effect as though made as of and at such date; (ii)  performance of all obligations  required
by this Plan to be  performed by the Company on behalf of the Funds shall occur prior to the  Closing;  and (iii) the Company  shall
execute a  certificate  signed by the President or a Vice  President  and by the  Secretary or  equivalent  officer to the foregoing
effect.



         (b)      That the form of this  Plan  shall  have been  adopted  and  approved  by the  appropriate  action of the Board of
Directors of the Company on behalf of the Funds.

         (c)      That the U.S.  Securities and Exchange  Commission  shall not have issued an unfavorable  management  report under
Section 25(b) of the 1940 Act or instituted or threatened to institute any  proceeding  seeking to enjoin  consummation  of the Plan
under Section 25(c) of the 1940 Act. And,  further,  no other legal,  administrative  or other proceeding shall have been instituted
or  threatened  that would  materially  affect the financial  condition of a Fund or would  prohibit the  transactions  contemplated
hereby.


         (d)      That the Plan  contemplated  hereby  shall  have  been  adopted  and  approved  by the  appropriate  action of the
shareholders of the Acquired Fund at an annual or special meeting or any adjournment thereof.


         (e)      That a  distribution  or  distributions  shall have been  declared for each Fund,  prior to the Closing Date that,
together  with all  previous  distributions,  shall  have the effect of  distributing  to  shareholders  of each Fund (i) all of its
ordinary  income and all of its  capital  gain net  income,  if any,  for the period  from the close of its last  fiscal year to the
Valuation  Time and (ii) any  undistributed  ordinary  income and capital  gain net income from any prior  period.  Capital gain net
income has the meaning assigned to such term by Section 1222(9) of the Code.



         (f)      That there shall be delivered to the Company on behalf of the Funds an opinion in form and substance  satisfactory
to it from Messrs.  Stradley Ronon Stevens & Young, LLP, counsel to the Company,  to the effect that, subject in all respects to the
effects of bankruptcy,  insolvency,  reorganization,  moratorium,  fraudulent conveyance,  and other laws now or hereafter affecting
generally the enforcement of creditors' rights:


                           (1)      Acquiring Fund Shares to be issued  pursuant to the terms of this Plan have been duly authorized
and, when issued and  delivered as provided in this Plan,  will have been validly  issued and fully paid and will be  non-assessable
by the Company, on behalf of the Acquiring Fund;


                           (2)      All actions  required to be taken by the Company  and/or Funds to authorize  and effect the Plan
contemplated hereby have been duly authorized by all necessary action on the part of the Company and the Funds;

                           (3)      Neither  the  execution,  delivery  nor  performance  of this Plan by the Company  violates  any
provision of the Company's  Amended and Restated  Charter or By-laws,  or the provisions of any agreement or other  instrument known
to such  counsel  to which the  Company is a party or by which the Funds are  otherwise  bound;  this Plan is the  legal,  valid and
binding  obligation of the Company and each Fund and is  enforceable  against the Company  and/or each Fund in  accordance  with its
terms; and


                           (4)      The Company's  registration  statement,  of which the prospectus dated March 1, 2003 relating to
each Fund (the  "Prospectus")  is a part,  is, at the time of the signing of this Plan,  effective  under the 1933 Act,  and, to the
best knowledge of such counsel,  no stop order suspending the effectiveness of such registration  statement has been issued,  and no
proceedings  for such  purpose  have been  instituted  or are pending  before or  threatened  by the U.S.  Securities  and  Exchange
Commission  under the 1933 Act,  and  nothing  has come to  counsel's  attention  that  causes it to believe  that,  at the time the
Prospectus  became  effective,  or at the time of the  signing of this Plan,  or at the  Closing,  such  Prospectus  (except for the
financial  statements and other financial and statistical data included  therein,  as to which counsel need not express an opinion),
contained any untrue  statement of a material  fact or omitted to state a material  fact required to be stated  therein or necessary
to make the  statements  therein  not  misleading;  and such  counsel  knows of no legal or  government  proceedings  required to be
described in the  Prospectus,  or of any contract or document of a character  required to be described in the Prospectus that is not
described as required.


         In giving the  opinions  set forth  above,  counsel  may state that it is relying on  certificates  of the  officers of the
Company with regard to matters of fact, and certain  certifications  and written  statements of governmental  officials with respect
to the good standing of the Company.

         (g)      That the  Company's  Registration  Statement  with  respect to the  Acquiring  Fund Shares to be  delivered to the
Acquired  Fund's  shareholders  in  accordance  with this Plan  shall  have  become  effective,  and no stop  order  suspending  the
effectiveness  of the  Registration  Statement or any amendment or supplement  thereto,  shall have been issued prior to the Closing
Date or shall be in effect at Closing,  and no proceedings  for the issuance of such an order shall be pending or threatened on that
date.


         (h)      That the Acquiring  Fund Shares to be delivered  hereunder  shall be eligible for sale by the Acquiring  Fund with
each state  commission or agency with which such  eligibility is required in order to permit the Acquiring  Fund Shares  lawfully to
be delivered to each shareholder of the Acquired Fund.


         (i)      That, at the Closing,  there shall be  transferred to the Acquiring Fund aggregate Net Assets of the Acquired Fund
comprising  at least 90% in fair  market  value of the total net assets and 70% of the fair market  value of the total gross  assets
recorded on the books of Acquired Fund on the Closing Date.

9.       Expenses.

         (a)      The Company  represents  and warrants that there are no broker or finders'  fees payable by it in connection  with
the transactions provided for herein.

         (b)      The expenses of entering  into and carrying out the  provisions of this Plan shall be borne by [the Funds on a pro
rata basis in proportion to the Acquiring Fund's and Acquired Fund's net assets as of the Closing].


10.      Termination; Postponement; Waiver; Order.

         (a)      Anything contained in this Plan to the contrary notwithstanding,  this Plan may be terminated and abandoned at any
time (whether before or after approval  thereof by the  shareholders of an Acquired Fund) prior to the Closing or the Closing may be
postponed  by the Company on behalf of a Fund by  resolution  of the Board of  Directors,  if  circumstances  develop  that,  in the
opinion of the Board, make proceeding with the Plan inadvisable.


         (b)      If the  transactions  contemplated  by this  Plan  have not been  consummated  by March 1,  2004,  the Plan  shall
automatically terminate on that date, unless a later date is agreed to by the Company on behalf of the relevant Funds.

         (c)      In the event of termination of this Plan pursuant to the  provisions  hereof,  the same shall become void and have
no further  effect with  respect to the  Acquiring  Fund or Acquired  Fund,  and neither the  Company,  the  Acquiring  Fund nor the
Acquired Fund, nor the directors, officers, agents or shareholders shall have any liability in respect of this Plan.


(d)      At any time prior to the Closing,  any of the terms or  conditions  of this Plan may be waived by the party who is entitled
to the benefit  thereof by action taken by the Company's  Board of Directors  if, in the judgment of such Board of  Directors,  such
action or waiver will not have a material  adverse affect on the benefits  intended under this Plan to its  shareholders,  on behalf
of whom such action is taken.


         (e)      The  respective  representations  and  warranties  contained  in Sections 4 to 6 hereof  shall  expire with and be
terminated by the Plan of  Reorganization,  and neither the Company nor any of its officers,  directors,  agents or shareholders nor
the Funds nor any of their  shareholders  shall have any liability  with respect to such  representations  or  warranties  after the
Closing.  This provision  shall not protect any officer,  director,  agent or shareholder of any of the Funds or the Company against
any liability to the entity for which that officer,  director,  agent or shareholder so acts or to any of the Company's shareholders
to which that officer,  director,  agent or  shareholder  would  otherwise be subject by reason of willful  misfeasance,  bad faith,
gross negligence, or reckless disregard of the duties in the conduct of such office.


         (f)      If any order or orders of the U.S.  Securities and Exchange  Commission  with respect to this Plan shall be issued
prior to the Closing  and shall  impose any terms or  conditions  that are  determined  by action of the Board of  Directors  of the
Company on behalf of the Funds to be  acceptable,  such  terms and  conditions  shall be  binding as if a part of this Plan  without
further vote or approval of the  shareholders  of the Acquired Fund,  unless such terms and  conditions  shall result in a change in
the method of computing  the number of Acquiring  Fund Shares to be issued to the  Acquired  Fund in which event,  unless such terms
and  conditions  shall have been included in the proxy  solicitation  material  furnished to the  shareholders  of the Acquired Fund
prior to the  meeting  at which  the  transactions  contemplated  by this Plan  shall  have been  approved,  this Plan  shall not be
consummated  and shall  terminate  unless  the  Company on behalf of the  Acquired  Fund shall  promptly  call a special  meeting of
shareholders at which such conditions so imposed shall be submitted for approval.

11.      Entire Plan and Amendments.

         This Plan  embodies  the entire  plan of the  Company on behalf of the Funds and there are no  agreements,  understandings,
restrictions,  or  warranties  between  the  parties  other than those set forth  herein or herein  provided  for.  This Plan may be
amended only by the Company on behalf of a Fund in writing.  Neither this Plan nor any interest  herein may be assigned  without the
prior written consent of the Company on behalf of the Fund corresponding to the Fund making the assignment.

12.      Notices.

to have been given if delivered or mailed,  first class postage prepaid,  addressed to the Company at One Corporate Drive,  P.O. Box

AMERICAN SKANDIA ADVISOR FUNDS, INC.
NOTES TO PRO FORMA FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
April 30, 2003
(Unaudited)

1.  ORGANIZATION

American Skandia Advisor Funds, Inc. (the "Company") is an open-end management investment company,
registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended.  The Company was organized on March
5, 1997 as a Maryland Corporation.  The Company operates as a series company and, at April 30, 2003,
consisted of 29 diversified and 2 non-diversified investment portfolios.  The following Notes and the
accompanying financial statements pertain to the combination of ASAF Gabelli All-Cap Value Fund  and the
ASAF Neuberger Berman Mid-Cap Value Fund (the "Funds").  These Notes should be read in conjunction with
the financial statements of ASAF Neuberger Berman Mid-Cap Value Fund.

2.  SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The accompanying financial statements utilize the pooling of interests accounting method to show the
combination of the two Funds.  In this method, the combined Statement of Assets and Liabilities is
constructed by the addition of these statements of each Fund.  ASAF Neuberger Berman Mid-Cap Value Fund will be
the surviving entity of the business combination.  It is intended that the combination will result in a tax-free
reorganization of the Funds.

The following accounting policies are in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the
United States of America.  Such policies are consistently followed by the Funds in the preparation of their
financial statements.  The preparation of financial statements requires management to make estimates and
assumptions that affect the reported amounts and disclosures in the financial statements.  Actual results
could differ from those estimates.

Security Valuation

Fund securities are valued at the close of trading on the New York Stock Exchange.  Equity securities are
valued generally at the last reported sales price on the securities exchange on which they are primarily
traded, or at the Official Closing price on the NASDAQ National Securities Market.  Securities not listed on
an exchange or securities market, or securities in which there were no transactions, are valued at the
average of the most recent bid and asked prices.

Debt securities are generally traded in the over-the-counter market and are valued at a price deemed best to
reflect fair value as quoted by dealers who make markets in these securities or by an independent pricing
service.  Debt securities that mature in less than 60 days are valued at amortized cost (or market value 60
days prior to maturity).  The amortized cost method values a security at its cost at the time of purchase and
thereafter assumes a constant amortization to maturity of any discount or premium.  Amortized cost reflects
market value.

Securities for which market quotations are not readily available are valued at fair value as determined in
accordance with procedures adopted by the Board of Directors.  At April 30, 2003, there were no securities
valued in accordance with such procedures.

Foreign Currency Translation

Fund securities and other assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are converted each
business day into U.S. dollars based on the prevailing rates of exchange.  Purchases and sales of portfolio
securities and income and expenses are converted into U.S. dollars on the respective dates of such
transactions.

Gains and losses resulting from changes in exchange rates applicable to foreign equity securities are not
reported separately from gains and losses arising from movements in securities prices.

Net realized foreign exchange gains and losses include gains and losses from sales and maturities of
foreign currency exchange contracts, gains and losses realized between the trade and settlement dates of
foreign securities transactions, and the difference between the amount of net investment income accrued
on foreign securities and the U.S. dollar amount actually received.  Net unrealized foreign exchange gains
and losses include gains and losses from changes in the value of assets and liabilities other than portfolio
securities, resulting from changes in exchange rates.

Foreign Currency Exchange Contracts

A foreign currency exchange contract ("FCEC") is a commitment to purchase or sell a specified amount of a
foreign currency at a specified future date, in exchange for either a specified amount of another foreign
currency or U.S. dollars.

FCECs are valued at the forward exchange rates applicable to the underlying currencies, and changes in
market value are recorded as unrealized gains and losses until the contract settlement date.

Risks could arise from entering into FCECs if the counterparties to the contracts were unable to meet the
terms of their contracts.  In addition, the use of FCECs may not only hedge against losses on securities
denominated in foreign currency, but may also reduce potential gains on securities from favorable
movements in exchange rates.

Futures Contracts and Options

A financial futures contract calls for delivery of a particular security at a specified price and future date.  The
seller of the contract agrees to make delivery of the type of security called for in the contract and the buyer
agrees to take delivery at a specified future date.  Such contracts require an initial margin deposit, in cash or
cash equivalents, equal to a certain percentage of the contract amount.  Subsequent payments (variation
margin) are made or received by the Fund each day, depending on the daily change in the value of the
contract.  Futures contracts are valued based on their quoted daily settlement prices.  Fluctuations in value
are recorded as unrealized gains and losses until such time that the contracts are terminated.

An option is a right to buy or sell a particular security or derivative instruments at a specified price within a
limited period of time. The buyer of the option, in return for a premium paid to the seller, has the right to buy
(in the case of a call option) or sell (in the case of a put option) the underlying security of the contract.  The
premium received in cash from writing options is recorded as an asset with an equal liability that is adjusted
to reflect the options' value.  The premium received from writing options which expire is recorded as realized
gains.  The premium received from writing call and put options which are exercised or closed is offset
against the proceeds or amount paid on the transaction to determine the realized gain or loss.  If a put option
is exercised, the premium reduces the cost basis of the security or currency purchased.  Options are valued
based on their quoted daily settlement prices.

Risks could arise from entering into futures and written options transactions from the potential inability of
counterparties to meet the terms of their contracts, the potential inability to enter into a closing transaction
because of an illiquid secondary market, and from unexpected movements in interest or exchange rates or
securities values.

Repurchase Agreements

A repurchase agreement is a commitment to purchase government securities from a seller who agrees to
repurchase the securities at an agreed-upon price and date.  The excess of the resale price over the
purchase price determines the yield on the transaction.  Under the terms of the agreement, the market value,
including accrued interest, of the government securities will be at least equal to their repurchase price.
Repurchase agreements are recorded at cost, which, combined with accrued interest, approximates market
value.

Repurchase agreements entail a risk of loss in the event that the seller defaults on its obligation to
repurchase the securities.  In such case, the Portfolio may be delayed or prevented from exercising its right to
dispose of the securities.

Securities Loans

Each Fund may lend securities for the purpose of realizing additional income.  All securities loans are
collateralized by cash or securities issued or guaranteed by the U.S. Government or its agencies.  The value
of the collateral is at least equal to the market value of the securities lent.  However, due to market
fluctuations, the value of the securities lent may exceed the value of the collateral.  On the next business day,
the collateral is adjusted based on the prior day's market fluctuations and the current day's lending activity.

Interest income from lending activity is determined by the amount of interest earned on collateral, less any
amounts payable to the borrowers of the securities and the lending agent.

Lending securities involves certain risks, including the risk that the Fund may be delayed or prevented from
recovering the collateral if the borrower fails to return the securities.

Cash collateral received in connection with securities lending is invested in short-term investments by the
lending agent.  These may include the Institutional Money Market Trust, a portfolio of money market securities
advised by BlackRock Capital Management, Inc., or directly in high-quality, short-term instruments with a
maturity date not to exceed 397 days.

Deferred Organization Expenses

The Company bears all costs in connection with its organization.  All such costs are amortized on a straight-
line basis over a five-year period beginning on the date of the commencement of operations.  Unamortized
organization costs of the surviving entity, if any, are carried over to the merged company.  Such costs of the
acquired company, if any, are not carried over and are immediately expensed.

Investment Transactions and Investment Income

Securities transactions are accounted for on the trade date.  Realized gains and losses from securities sold
are recognized on the specific identification basis.  Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date.
Corporate actions, including dividends, on foreign securities are recorded on the ex-dividend date or, if such
information is not available, as soon as reliable information is available from the Fund's sources.  Interest
income is recorded on the accrual basis and includes the accretion of discount and amortization of premium.

Multiple Classes of Shares

Each Fund is divided into Class A, B, C, and X shares.  Each class of shares is separately charged its
respective distribution and service fees.  Income, and expenses that are not specific to a particular class, and
realized and unrealized gains and losses are allocated to each class based on the daily value of the shares
of each class in relation to the total value of the Fund.  Dividends are declared separately for each class and
the per-share amounts reflect differences in class-specific expenses.

Each Portfolio is charged for expenses that are directly attributable to it.  Common expenses of the Company
are allocated to the Funds in proportion to their net assets.

Distributions to Shareholders

Distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex-divided date.  Dividends from net investment income
and net realized gains from investments transactions, if any, are declared and paid at least annually by the
Funds.

                                                               PART C

OTHER INFORMATION


ITEM 15. Indemnification

         Section  2-418  of the  General  Corporation  Law of the  State of  Maryland  provides  for  indemnification  of  officers,
directors,  employees and agents of a Maryland  corporation.  With respect to  indemnification  of the officers and directors of the
Registrant,  and of other  employees  and agents to such extent as shall be  authorized  by the Board of Directors or the By-laws of
the  Registrant  and be permitted by law,  reference  is made to Article  VIII,  Paragraph  (a)(5) of the  Registrant's  Articles of
Incorporation and Article V of the Registrant's By-laws, both filed herewith.

         With respect to liability of the Investment  Manager to Registrant or to  shareholders  of ASAF Gabelli  All-Cap Value Fund
under the Investment  Management  Agreements,  reference is made to Section 13 of each form of Investment Management Agreement filed
herewith.

         With respect to the  Sub-Advisors'  indemnification  under the  Sub-Advisory  Agreements  of the  Investment  Manager,  any
affiliated  person  within the meaning of Section  2(a)(3) of the  Investment  Company Act of 1940,  as amended (the "ICA"),  of the
Investment  Manager and each person,  if any, who controls the Investment  Manager within the meaning of Section 15 of the 1933 Act,
as amended (the "1933 Act"), reference is made to Section 14 of each form of Sub-Advisory Agreement filed herewith.

         With  respect to  Registrant's  indemnification  of American  Skandia  Marketing,  Incorporated  (the  "Distributor"),  its
officers  and  directors  and any person who  controls  the  Distributor  within the meaning of Section 15 of the 1933 Act,  and the
Distributor's  indemnification of Registrant,  its officers and directors and any person who controls Registrant, if any, within the
meaning of the 1933 Act, reference is made to Section 10 of the form of Underwriting and Distribution Agreement filed herewith.

         Insofar as indemnification for liability arising under the 1933 Act may be permitted to directors, officers and
controlling persons of the Registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the Registrant has been advised that in
the opinion of the Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the 1933 Act and is, therefore,
unenforceable.  In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the Registrant
or expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the Registrant in the successful defense of any
action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being
registered, the Registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit
to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in
the 1933 Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
