IMPORTANT INFORMATION TO HELP YOU UNDERSTAND AND VOTE ON THE PROPOSAL

Please read the enclosed proxy statement for a complete description of the proposal. However, as a quick reference, the following questions and answers provide a brief overview of the proposal.

Q. WHAT PROPOSAL AM I BEING ASKED TO VOTE ON?

A. The purpose of the proxy is to ask you to vote on the following issue:

· to approve a change to the Fund’s fundamental investment restriction relating to industry concentration (the “Proposal”). If the Proposal is approved by the Fund’s shareholders, the Fund will concentrate its investments in securities of companies in the natural resources group of industries.

Q. WHAT WILL BE THE EFFECT OF THE PROPOSED CHANGE TO THE FUND’S FUNDAMENTAL INVESTMENT RESTRICTIONS?

A. The Board does not believe that the proposed change to the fundamental investment restriction relating to industry concentration will result in a major restructuring of the Fund’s investment portfolio. The change will allow the Fund greater flexibility to respond to investment opportunities.

Q. WHAT IS A “FUNDAMENTAL” INVESTMENT RESTRICTION, AND WHY IS IT PROPOSED THAT IT BE CHANGED?

A. “Fundamental” investment restrictions are limitations placed on a fund’s investment policies that can be changed only by a shareholder vote. The law requires certain investment policies to be designated as fundamental, including the investment policy relating to industry concentration.

The Board believes that the fundamental restriction that is proposed to be changed should be changed to provide greater investment flexibility for the Fund.

Q. DOES THE PROPOSED CHANGE MEAN THAT MY FUND’S INVESTMENT OBJECTIVE IS BEING CHANGED?

A. No.

Q. HOW MANY VOTES DO YOU NEED TO APPROVE THE PROPOSAL?

A. Approval of the Proposal requires the affirmative vote of a “majority,” as defined in the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the “1940 Act”), of the outstanding voting securities of the Fund voting in the aggregate and not by class. As defined in the 1940 Act, the vote of a majority of the outstanding voting securities means the vote of (1) 67% or more of the Fund’s outstanding voting securities present at a meeting, if the holders of more than 50% of the outstanding voting securities of the Fund are present or represented by proxy; or (2) more than 50% of the Fund’s outstanding voting securities, whichever is less.

Q. WHAT IF YOU DO NOT HAVE ENOUGH VOTES TO MAKE THIS DECISION BY THE SCHEDULED SHAREHOLDER MEETING DATE?

A. If we believe we may not receive sufficient votes to hold the meeting, we may contact you by mail or telephone to encourage you to vote. Shareholders should review the proxy materials and cast their vote to avoid additional mailings or telephone calls. If we do not have enough votes to approve the Proposal by the time of the shareholder meeting at 11:00 a.m. on [August , 2009], the meeting may be adjourned to permit further solicitation of proxy votes. See “Voting Information” for more information regarding circumstances under which the meeting may be adjourned.

Q. HAS THE FUND’S BOARD APPROVED THE PROPOSAL?

Yes. The Fund’s Board has approved the Proposal and recommends that you vote to approve it.

Q. HOW MANY VOTES AM I ENTITLED TO CAST?

A. As a shareholder, you are entitled to one vote for each share you own of the Fund on the record date. The record date is July8, 2009.

Q. HOW DO I VOTE MY SHARES?

A. You may vote in any of several different ways. You may vote by attending the shareholder meeting scheduled for August 14, 2009, or you can vote your shares by completing and signing the enclosed proxy card, and mailing it in the enclosed postage paid envelope. If you need any assistance, or have any questions regarding the Proposal or how to vote your shares, please call Prudential at [1-888-467-9412].

Finally, you can vote by telephone. If your Fund shares are held in your own name, call [1-800-690-6903] toll free. If your Fund shares are held on your behalf in a brokerage account with a broker, call [1-800-454-8683] toll free.

PROXY STATEMENT

To Be Held on August 14, 2009

This proxy statement is being furnished to holders of shares of Natural Resources Portfolio (the “Fund”), a series of The Prudential Series Fund (“PSF” or the “Trust”) in connection with the solicitation by its Board of a proxy to be used at a meeting (the “Meeting”) of shareholders to be held at Gateway Center Three, 100 Mulberry Street, 4th Floor, Newark, New Jersey 07102 on August 14, 2009, at 11:00 a.m. Eastern Daylight Time, or at any adjournment or adjournments thereof. This proxy statement is being first mailed to shareholders on or about July , 2009.

PSF is a management investment company registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “Investment Company Act”). PSF is organized as a as a Delaware statutory trust. The Board of Trustees of PSF is collectively referred to herein as the “Board” or the “Trustees.” The principal executive offices of PSF are located at 100 Mulberry Street, Newark, NJ 07102. Prudential Investment LLC (“PI” or the “Manager”) serves as investment manager of the Trust under a management agreement with the Trust for the Fund (the “Management Agreement”). Investment advisory services are provided to the Fund by PI through a subadvisory agreement with Jennison Associates LLC (“Jennison” or the “Subadviser”), 466 Lexington Avenue, New York, New York 10017.

Prudential Investment Management Services LLC (“PIMS” or the “Distributor”), Gateway Center Three, 100 Mulberry Street, Newark, New Jersey 07102, serves as the distributor of the Fund’s shares. The Fund’s transfer agent is Prudential Mutual Fund Services LLC (“PMFS”), Gateway Center Three, 100 Mulberry Street, Newark, New Jersey 07102. As of April 30, 2009, PI served as the investment manager to U.S. and offshore open-end investment companies and as the administrator to closed-end investment companies with aggregate assets of approximately $81.2 billion. PSF has a Board of Trustees which, in addition to overseeing the actions of the Fund’s Manager and Subadviser, decides upon matters of general policy.

VOTING INFORMATION

The presence, in person or by proxy, of a majority of the Shares of the Fund outstanding and entitled to vote will constitute a quorum for the transaction of business at the Meeting.

If a quorum is not present at the Meeting, or if a quorum is present at the Meeting but sufficient votes to approve the Proposal are not received, the persons named as proxies may propose one or more adjournments of the Meeting to permit further solicitation of proxies. Any adjournment will require the affirmative vote of a majority of those Shares present and entitled to vote at the Meeting in person or by proxy. When voting on a proposed adjournment, the persons named as proxies will vote those proxies which they are entitled to vote FOR the Proposal in favor of the adjournment of the Meeting and will vote those proxies required to be voted AGAINST the Proposal against the adjournment of the Meeting. A shareholder vote may be taken on the Proposal in this proxy statement prior to any such adjournment if sufficient votes have been received and it is otherwise appropriate.

If a proxy that is properly executed and returned is accompanied by instructions to withhold authority to vote (an abstention) or represents a broker “non-vote” (that is, a proxy from a broker or nominee indicating that such person has not received instructions from the beneficial owner or other person entitled to vote Shares on a particular matter with respect to which the broker or nominee does not have discretionary power), the Shares represented thereby will be considered present for purposes of determining a quorum but will have the effect of a vote against

the Proposal (or proposed adjournments on the Proposal) because approval of the Proposal requires approval of a majority of the outstanding voting securities under the 1940 Act or applicable state law.

The individuals named as proxies on the enclosed proxy card will vote in accordance with your direction as indicated thereon if your card is received properly executed by you or by your duly appointed agent or attorney-in-fact. If your card is properly executed and you give no voting instructions, your Shares will be voted FOR the Proposal described in this proxy statement and referenced on the proxy card. You may revoke any proxy card by giving another proxy or by letter or telegram revoking the initial proxy or by attending the Meeting and casting your vote in person. To be effective your revocation must be received by the Fund prior to the Meeting and must indicate your name and account number.

The close of business on July 8, 2009 has been fixed as the record date for the determination of shareholders entitled to notice of, and to vote at, the Meeting. Information as to the number of outstanding Shares for the Fund as of the record date is set forth below:

Class I	Class II	Total

The Proposal does not require separate voting by class. Each Share of each class is entitled to one vote. To the knowledge of management, the executive officers and Board Members of the Fund, as a group, owned less than 1% of the outstanding Shares of the Fund as of July 8, 2009. A listing of persons who owned beneficially 5% or more of any class of the Shares of the Fund as of July 8, 2009 is contained in Exhibit A.

Copies of the Fund’s most recent annual and semi-annual reports, including financial statements, have previously been delivered to Shareholders. Shareholders of the Fund may obtain without charge additional copies of the Fund’s annual and semi-annual reports by writing the Fund at Gateway Center Three, 100 Mulberry Street, 4th Floor, Newark, New Jersey 07102, or by calling [1-800-225-1852] (toll free).

Each full Share of the Fund outstanding is entitled to one vote, and each fractional Share of the Fund outstanding is entitled to a proportionate share of one vote, with respect to the matter to be voted upon by the Shareholders of the Fund. Information about the vote necessary with respect to the Proposal is discussed below in connection with the Proposal.

Shareholders voting via the Internet should understand that there may be costs associated with electronic access, such as usage charges from Internet access providers and telephone companies that must be borne by the Shareholder. We have been advised that Internet voting procedures that have been made available to you are consistent with the requirements of applicable law.

TO APPROVE A CHANGE TO ONE OF THE FUNDAMENTAL INVESTMENT
RESTRICTIONS AND POLICIES

PROPOSAL

Background

The Board of the Fund has approved, and recommends that shareholders of the Fund approve, a change to the Fund’s fundamental investment restriction relating to industry concentration (the “Proposal”). If shareholders approve the proposed change in fundamental investment policy, the Fund will concentrate its investments in the natural resources group of industries.

The Fund has adopted fundamental investment restrictions and policies regarding the Fund’s investments. The designation of these restrictions and policies as “fundamental” means that they cannot be changed without shareholder approval. You are being asked to approve a change to one of the Fund’s fundamental investment restrictions and policies in order to provide the Fund’s Manager and Subadviser with additional flexibility to pursue the Fund’s investment objective.

Risks: The proposed change in fundamental investment restriction is intended to provide the Fund’s Manager and Subadviser with flexibility in pursuing the Fund’s investment objective to respond to future investment opportunities. The proposed change is not expected, however, to generally modify the way the Fund is currently managed. Certain specific risks associated with the proposed fundamental investment restriction change are described below. However, the Manager does not anticipate that the proposed change will materially change either the level or nature of risk associated with investing in the Fund. If the proposed change is approved by shareholders, the Fund will interpret the new restriction in light of existing and future exemptive orders, SEC releases, no-action letters or similar relief or interpretations.

Specific Recommendation

Currently, as a matter of fundamental investment policy:

“None of the [PSF] Portfolios [including the Fund] will purchase securities of a company in any industry if, as a result of the purchase, a Portfolio’s holdings of securities issued by companies in that industry would exceed 25% of the value of the Portfolio, except that this restriction does not apply to purchases of obligations issued or guaranteed by the U.S. Government, its agencies and instrumentalities or issued by domestic banks.”

The Board proposes, subject to shareholder approval, replacing this policy with the following fundamental investment policy:

“The Fund may not purchase any security (other than obligations of the U.S. government, its agencies or instrumentalities) if, as a result of such purchase, 25% or more of the Fund’s total assets (determined at the time of investment) would be invested in any one industry; provided however that the Fund will concentrate its investments (i.e., will invest at least 25% of its assets under normal circumstances) in securities of companies in the natural resources group of industries.”

Following is an explanation of why the Board is asking you to make this change.

Removing industry concentration limitation

The Board of Trustees is asking shareholders to authorize a change to the investment restriction of the Fund relating to industry concentration. Jennison, as the Fund’s Subadviser, believes that permitting the Fund to implement the change described above would provide the Fund with additional investment flexibility, enabling it

to take full advantage of investment opportunities within the natural resources sector. This proposed change would be consistent with the Fund’s categorization as a sector fund, since the prevailing market practice of sector funds is to concentrate investments in the sectors suggested by the Fund’s name, in this case, natural resources. This proposed change would be also be consistent with the Fund’s investment objective of long-term growth of capital and would provide Jennison with maximum flexibility to implement its investment process for the long-term benefit of the Fund’s shareholders. The primary investment strategy of the Fund would remain the same.

Currently, as set forth in the Fund’s Statement of Additional Information (“SAI”), the Fund is prohibited from purchasing any security if as a result 25% or more of the Fund’s total assets would be invested in the securities of issuers having their principal business activities in the same industry (with certain limited exceptions). This is a fundamental policy of the Fund and can be modified only with shareholder approval. For purposes of this investment restriction, the Fund adheres to the custom industry classification system specified in the Fund’s SAI. Consistent with the Fund’s prospectus, Jennison, as the Fund’s Subadviser, uses the custom industry classification system to monitor the 25% limitation. Jennison’s reliance on this classification system is not a fundamental policy of the Fund and, therefore, can be changed without shareholder approval. The Board wishes to seek shareholder approval for an exception to the 25% limitation for investments in companies in the natural resources group of industries. If shareholders approve the Proposal to permit the Fund to concentrate its investments in the natural resources group of industries, the Board will replace the custom industry classification system currently used by the Fund with the Global Industry Classification Standards (“GICS”) published by Standard & Poor’s.

The Proposal is based primarily on Jennison’s analysis that the natural resources market is itself very concentrated in certain industries. For example, Jennison recently estimated that over 55% of the world’s natural resources market capitalization is within the “Integrated Oil & Gas” GICS industry classification. This level of concentration illustrates the high degree to which potential investment opportunities exist within a given industry within the natural resources sector. The current 25% industry limitation prevents Jennison from taking full advantage of these potential opportunities, creating possible limits on the Fund’s ability to maximize returns for shareholders.

The proposed fundamental investment policy restriction outlined above is similar to the investment restriction applicable to three other sector funds that Jennison manages for PI. In each of these other sector funds, the industry concentration restriction does not apply to the industries in the particular sector in which the sector fund operates. Thus, Jennison Natural Resources Fund is subject to a 25% industry limitation for all industries other than the natural resources group of industries. Similarly, Jennison Health Sciences Fund is subject to a 25% industry limitation for all industries other than the health sciences group of industries. In addition, Jennison Utility Fund is subject to a 25% industry limitation for all industries other than the utility group of industries.

Thus, the Manager and Jennison believe that failure to carve out the natural resources group of industries from the current 25% industry concentration restriction limits Jennison’s ability to take full advantage of natural resources investment opportunities and could potentially interfere with the efficient management of the Fund in accordance with its investment objective, to the potential detriment of shareholders.

The Board and the Manager strongly believe that approval of the Proposal will enhance the Fund’s ability to pursue its objective to the benefit of shareholders and is consistent with how other natural resources sector funds, and other sector funds, in general, are managed.

For these reasons, the Manager and the Board recommend that shareholders approve the proposed change in fundamental policy relating to industry concentration.

Required Vote

Approval of the Proposal requires the affirmative vote of a “majority,” as defined in the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the “1940 Act”), of the outstanding voting securities of the Fund voting in the aggregate and not by class. As defined in the 1940 Act, the vote of a majority of the outstanding voting securities means the vote of (1) 67% or more of the Fund’s outstanding voting securities present at a meeting, if the holders of more than 50% of the outstanding voting securities of the Fund are present or represented by proxy; or (2) more than 50% of the Fund’s outstanding voting securities, whichever is less.

THE BOARD, INCLUDING ITS INDEPENDENT BOARD MEMBERS, RECOMMENDS THAT YOU VOTE “FOR” THE PROPOSAL.
