On behalf of the Anchor Series Trust (the “Trust”), attached for filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to Rule 20a-1 under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, Rule 14a-6(a) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and Rule 101(a) of Regulation S-T, is a conformed electronic format copy of additional preliminary solicitation materials requesting voting instructions from owners of variable annuity and variable life insurance contracts indirectly invested in the investment portfolios of the Trust with respect to a number of proposals pertaining to the operation of the investment portfolios of the Trust. The additional solicitation material is the Notice of Shareholders Meeting that was inadvertently left out of the first filing of preliminary solicitation materials on July 14, 2011.

Sincerely, | ||||
