----------------------
THIS AGREEMENT is between American Skandia Investment Services, Incorporated (the "Investment Manager") and INVESCO Funds Group, Inc.
(the "Sub-Adviser").
W I T N E S S E T H
- - - - - - - - - -
WHEREAS, American Skandia Advisor Funds, Inc. (the "Company") is a Maryland corporation organized with one or more series of shares
and is registered as an open-end management investment company under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "ICA"); and
WHEREAS, the Investment Manager and the Sub-Adviser each is an investment adviser registered under the Investment Advisers Act of
1940, as amended (the "Advisers Act"); and
WHEREAS, the Board of Directors of the Company (the "Directors") have engaged the Investment Manager to act as investment manager for
the ASAF INVESCO Health Sciences Fund (the "Fund"), one series of the Company, under the terms of a management agreement, dated March
1, 2001, with the Company (the "Management Agreement"); and
WHEREAS, the Investment Manager, acting pursuant to the Management Agreement, wishes to engage the Sub-Adviser, and the Directors
have approved the engagement of the Sub-Adviser, to provide investment advice and other investment services set forth below.
NOW, THEREFORE, the Investment Manager and the Sub-Adviser agree as follows:
1. Investment Services. The Sub-Adviser will formulate and implement a continuous investment program for the Fund conforming
--------------------
to the investment objective, investment policies and restrictions of the Fund as set forth in the Prospectus and Statement of
Additional Information of the Company as in effect from time to time (together, the "Registration Statement"), the Articles of
Incorporation and By-laws of the Company, and any investment guidelines or other instructions received by the Sub-Adviser in writing
from the Investment Manager from time to time. Any amendments to the foregoing documents will not be deemed effective with respect
to the Sub-Adviser until the Sub-Adviser's receipt thereof. The appropriate officers and employees of the Sub-Adviser will be
available to consult with the Investment Manager, the Company and the Directors at reasonable times and upon reasonable notice
concerning the business of the Company, including valuations of securities which are not registered for public sale, not traded on
any securities market or otherwise may be deemed illiquid for purposes of the ICA; provided it is understood that the Sub-Adviser is
not responsible for daily pricing of the Fund's assets.
Subject to the supervision and control of the Investment Manager, which in turn is subject to the supervision and control of
the Directors, the Sub-Adviser in its discretion will determine which issuers and securities will be purchased, held, sold or
exchanged by the Fund or otherwise represented in the Fund's investment portfolio from time to time and, subject to the provisions of
paragraph 3 of this Agreement, will place orders with and give instructions to brokers, dealers and others for all such transactions
and cause such transactions to be executed. Custody of the Fund will be maintained by a custodian bank (the "Custodian") and the
Investment Manager will authorize the Custodian to honor orders and instructions by employees of the Sub-Adviser designated by the
Sub-Adviser to settle transactions in respect of the Fund. No assets may be withdrawn from the Fund other than for settlement of
transactions on behalf of the Fund except upon the written authorization of appropriate officers of the Company who shall have been
certified as such by proper authorities of the Company prior to the withdrawal.
The Sub-Adviser will not be responsible for the provision of administrative, bookkeeping or accounting services to the Fund
except as specifically provided herein, as required by the ICA or the Advisers Act or as may be necessary for the Sub-Adviser to
supply to the Investment Manager, the Fund or the Fund's shareholders the information required to be provided by the Sub-Adviser
hereunder. Any records maintained hereunder shall be the property of the Fund and surrendered promptly upon request.
In furnishing the services under this Agreement, the Sub-Adviser will comply with and use its best efforts to enable the
Fund to conform to the requirements of: (i) the ICA and the regulations promulgated thereunder; (ii) Subchapter M of the Internal
Revenue Code and the regulations promulgated thereunder; (iii) other applicable provisions of state or federal law; (iv) the Articles
of Incorporation and By-laws of the Company; (v) policies and determinations of the Company and the Investment Manager provided to
the Sub-Adviser in writing; (vi) the fundamental and non-fundamental investment policies and restrictions applicable to the Fund, as
set out in the Registration Statement of the Company in effect, or as such investment policies and restrictions from time to time may
be amended by the Fund's shareholders or the Directors and communicated to the Sub-Adviser in writing; (vii) the Registration
Statement; and (viii) investment guidelines or other instructions received in writing from the Investment Manager. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, the Sub-Adviser shall have no responsibility to monitor compliance with limitations or restrictions for which
information from the Investment Manager or its authorized agents is required to enable the Sub-Adviser to monitor compliance with
such limitations or restrictions unless such information is provided to the Sub-adviser in writing. The Sub-Adviser shall supervise
and monitor the activities of its representatives, personnel and agents in connection with the investment program of the Fund.
Nothing in this Agreement shall be implied to prevent the Investment Manager from engaging other sub-advisers to provide
investment advice and other services to the Fund or to series or portfolios of the Company for which the Sub-Adviser does not provide
such services, or to prevent the Investment Manager from providing such services itself in relation to the Fund or such other series
or portfolios.
The Sub-Adviser shall be responsible for the preparation and filing of Schedule 13-G and Form 13-F on behalf of the Fund.
The Sub-Adviser shall not be responsible for the preparation or filing of any other reports required of the Fund by any governmental
or regulatory agency, except as expressly agreed in writing.
2. Investment Advisory Facilities. The Sub-Adviser, at its expense, will furnish all necessary investment facilities,
--------------------------------
including salaries of personnel, required for it to execute its duties hereunder.
3. Execution of Fund Transactions. In connection with the investment and reinvestment of the assets of the Fund, the
--------------------------------
Sub-Adviser is responsible for the selection of broker-dealers to execute purchase and sale transactions for the Fund in conformity
with the policy regarding brokerage as set forth in the Registration Statement, or as the Directors may determine from time to time,
as well as the negotiation of brokerage commission rates with such executing broker-dealers. Generally, the Sub-Adviser's primary
consideration in placing Fund investment transactions with broker-dealers for execution will be to obtain, and maintain the
availability of, best execution at the best available price.
Consistent with this policy, the Sub-Adviser, in selecting broker-dealers and negotiating brokerage commission rates, will
take all relevant factors into consideration, including, but not limited to: the best price available; the reliability, integrity and
financial condition of the broker-dealer; the size of and difficulty in executing the order; and the value of the expected
contribution of the broker-dealer to the investment performance of the Fund on a continuing basis. Subject to such policies and
procedures as the Directors may determine, the Sub-Adviser shall have discretion to effect investment transactions for the Fund
through broker-dealers (including, to the extent permissible under applicable law, broker-dealers affiliated with the Sub-Adviser)
qualified to obtain best execution of such transactions who provide brokerage and/or research services, as such services are defined
in section 28(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "1934 Act"), and to cause the Fund to pay any such
broker-dealers an amount of commission for effecting a portfolio investment transaction in excess of the amount of commission another
broker-dealer would have charged for effecting that transaction, if the Sub-Adviser determines in good faith that such amount of
commission is reasonable in relation to the value of the brokerage or research services provided by such broker-dealer, viewed in
terms of either that particular investment transaction or the Sub-Adviser's overall responsibilities with respect to the Fund and
other accounts as to which the Sub-Adviser exercises investment discretion (as such term is defined in section 3(a)(35) of the 1934
Act). Allocation of orders placed by the Sub-Adviser on behalf of the Fund to such broker-dealers shall be in such amounts and
proportions as the Sub-Adviser shall determine in good faith in conformity with its responsibilities under applicable laws, rules and
regulations. The Sub-Adviser will submit reports on such allocations to the Investment Manager regularly as requested by the
Investment Manager, in such form as may be mutually agreed to by the parties hereto, indicating the broker-dealers to whom such
allocations have been made and the basis therefor.
Subject to the foregoing provisions of this paragraph 3, the Sub-Adviser may also consider sales of shares in the Fund and
recommendations by the Investment Manager in the selection of broker-dealers to effect the Fund's investment transactions.
Notwithstanding the above, nothing shall require the Sub-Adviser to use a broker-dealer which provides research services or to use a
particular broker-dealer which the Investment Manager has recommended.
4. Reports by the Sub-Adviser. The Sub-Adviser shall furnish the Investment Manager monthly, quarterly and annual reports, as
--------------------------
may reasonably be requested by the Investment Manager concerning the transactions, performance, and compliance of the Fund so that
the Investment Manager may review such matters and discuss the management of the Fund. The Sub-Adviser shall permit the books and
records maintained with respect to the Fund to be inspected and audited by the Company, the Investment Manager or their respective
agents at all reasonable times during normal business hours upon reasonable notice. The Sub-Adviser shall immediately notify both
the Investment Manager and the Company of any legal process served upon it in connection with its activities hereunder, including any
legal process served upon it on behalf of the Investment Manager, the Fund or the Company. The Sub-Adviser shall promptly notify the
Investment Manager of (1) any changes in any information regarding the Sub-Adviser or the investment program for the Fund disclosed
in the Company's Registration Statement, or (2) any violation of any requirement, provision, policy or restriction that the
Sub-advisor is required to comply with under Section 1 of this Agreement.
5. Compensation of the Sub-Adviser. The amount of the compensation to the Sub-Adviser is computed at an annual rate. The fee
---------------------------------
shall be payable monthly in arrears, based on the average daily net assets of the Fund for each month, at the annual rate set forth
in Exhibit A to this Agreement.
In computing the fee to be paid to the Sub-Adviser, the net asset value of the Fund shall be valued as set forth in the
Registration Statement. If this Agreement is terminated, the payment described herein shall be prorated to the date of termination.
The Investment Manager and the Sub-Adviser shall not be considered as partners or participants in a joint venture. The
Sub-Adviser will pay its own expenses for the services to be provided pursuant to this Agreement and will not be obligated to pay any
expenses of the Investment Manager, the Fund or the Company. Except as otherwise specifically provided herein, the Investment
Manager, the Fund and the Company will not be obligated to pay any expenses of the Sub-Adviser.

8. Confidential Treatment. The parties hereto understand that any information or recommendation supplied by the Sub-Adviser in
-----------------------
connection with the performance of its obligations hereunder is to be regarded as confidential and for use only by the Investment
Manager, the Company or such persons the Investment Manager may designate in connection with the Fund. The parties also understand
that any information supplied to the Sub-Adviser in connection with the performance of its obligations hereunder, particularly, but
not limited to, any list of securities which may not be bought or sold for the Fund, is to be regarded as confidential and for use
only by the Sub-Adviser in connection with its obligation to provide investment advice and other services to the Fund.
9. Representations of the Parties. Each party hereto hereby further represents and warrants to the other that: (i) it is
-------------------------------
registered as an investment adviser under the Advisers Act and is registered or licensed as an investment adviser under the laws of
all jurisdictions in which its activities require it to be so registered or licensed; and (ii) it will use its reasonable best
efforts to maintain each such registration or license in effect at all times during the term of this Agreement; and (iii) it will
promptly notify the other if it ceases to be so registered, if its registration is suspended for any reason, or if it is notified by
any regulatory organization or court of competent jurisdiction that it should show cause why its registration should not be suspended

The Sub-Adviser further represents that it has adopted a written Code of Ethics in compliance with Rule 17j-1(b) of the

warrants to the Sub-Adviser that (i) the appointment of the Sub-Adviser by the Investment Manager has been duly authorized and (ii)
it has acted and will continue to act in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby, and the transactions contemplated
hereby are, in conformity with the ICA, the Company's governing documents and other applicable law.
10. Liability. In the absence of willful misfeasance, bad faith, gross negligence or reckless disregard for its obligations
---------
hereunder, the Sub-Adviser shall not be liable to the Company, the Fund, the Fund's shareholders or the Investment Manager for any
act or omission resulting in any loss suffered by the Company, the Fund, the Fund's shareholders or the Investment Manager in
connection with any service to be provided herein. The Federal laws impose responsibilities under certain circumstances on persons
who act in good faith, and therefore, nothing herein shall in any way constitute a waiver or limitation of any rights which the
Company, the Fund or the Investment Manager may have under applicable law.
11. Other Activities of the Sub-Adviser. The Investment Manager agrees that the Sub-Adviser and any of its partners or
--------------------------------------
employees, and persons affiliated with the Sub-Adviser or with any such partner or employee, may render investment management or
advisory services to other investors and institutions, and that such investors and institutions may own, purchase or sell, securities
or other interests in property that are the same as, similar to, or different from those which are selected for purchase, holding or
sale for the Fund. The Investment Manager further acknowledges that the Sub-Adviser shall be in all respects free to take action
with respect to investments in securities or other interests in property that are the same as, similar to, or different from those
selected for purchase, holding or sale for the Fund. The Investment Manager understands that the Sub-Adviser shall not favor or
disfavor any of the Sub-Adviser's clients or class of clients in the allocation of investment opportunities, so that to the extent
practical, such opportunities will be allocated among the Sub-Adviser's clients over a period of time on a fair and equitable basis.
Nothing in this Agreement shall impose upon the Sub-Adviser any obligation (i) to purchase or sell, or recommend for purchase or
sale, for the Fund any security which the Sub-Adviser, its partners, affiliates or employees may purchase or sell for the Sub-Adviser
or such partner's, affiliate's or employee's own accounts or for the account of any other client of the Sub-Adviser, advisory or
otherwise, or (ii) to abstain from the purchase or sale of any security for the Sub-Adviser's other clients, advisory or otherwise,
which the Investment Manager has placed on the list provided pursuant to paragraph 6(g) of this Agreement.
12. Continuance and Termination. This Agreement shall remain in full force and effect for one year from the date hereof, and is
----------------------------
renewable annually thereafter by specific approval of the Directors or by vote of a majority of the outstanding voting securities of
the Fund. Any such renewal shall be approved by the vote of a majority of the Directors who are not interested persons under the
ICA, cast in person at a meeting called for the purpose of voting on such renewal. This Agreement may be terminated without penalty
at any time by the Investment Manager or the Sub-Adviser upon 60 days written notice, and will automatically terminate in the event
of (i) its "assignment" by either party to this Agreement, as such term is defined in the ICA, subject to such exemptions as may be
granted by the Securities and Exchange Commission by rule, regulation or order, or (ii) upon termination of the Management Agreement,
provided the Sub-Adviser has received prior written notice thereof.
13. Notification. The Sub-Adviser will notify the Investment Manager within a reasonable time of any change in the personnel of
------------
the Sub-Adviser with responsibility for making investment decisions in relation to the Fund (the "Portfolio Manager(s)") or who have
been authorized to give instructions to the Custodian. The Sub-adviser shall be responsible for reasonable out-of-pocket costs and
expenses incurred by the Investment Manager, the Fund or the Company to amend or supplement the Company's prospectus to reflect a
change in Portfolio Manager(s) or otherwise to comply with the ICA, the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "1933 Act") or any
other applicable statute, law, rule or regulation, as a result of such change; provided, however, that the Sub-Adviser shall not be
responsible for such costs and expenses where the change in Portfolio Manager(s) reflects the termination of employment of the
Portfolio Manager(s) with the Sub-Adviser and its affiliates or is the result of a request by the Investment Manager or is due to
other circumstances beyond the Sub-Adviser's control.
