(at the Company's expense); provided, however that such withdrawal and
termination shall be limited to the extent required by the foregoing material

conflict and the cost of such remedial action, and these responsibilities will

the disinterested members of the Board shall determine whether any proposed
action adequately
11
remedies any irreconcilable material conflict, but in no event will the Fund be
required to establish a new funding medium for the Contracts. The Company shall
not be required by Section 7.3 through 7.4 to establish a new funding medium for
the Contracts if an offer to do so has been declined by vote of a majority of
Contract owners materially adversely affected by the irreconcilable material
conflict.

defined in the Shared Funding Exemptive Order) on terms and conditions
materially different from those contained in the Shared Funding Exemptive Order,
then the Fund and/or the Participating Insurance Companies, as appropriate,
shall take such steps as may be necessary to comply with Rules 6e-2 and 6e-3(T),
as amended, and Rule 6e-3, as adopted, to the extent such rules are applicable.
7.7. Each of the Company and the Adviser shall at least annually submit to the
Board such reports, materials or data as the Board may reasonably request so
that the Board may fully carry out the obligations imposed upon them by the
provisions hereof and in the Shared Funding Exemptive Order, and said reports,
materials and data shall be submitted more frequently if deemed appropriate by
the Board. All reports received by the Board of potential or existing conflicts,
and all Board action with regard to determining the existence of a conflict,
notifying Participating Insurance Companies of a conflict, and determining
whether any proposed action adequately remedies a conflict, shall be properly
recorded in the minutes of the Board or other appropriate records, and such

8.1. Indemnification By The Company
8.1(a). The Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Fund, the
Underwriter and each member of their respective Board and officers and each
person, if any, who controls the Fund within the meaning of Section 15 of the
1933 Act (collectively, the "Indemnified Parties" for purposes of this Section
8.1) against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities (including amounts
paid in settlement with the written consent of the Company) or litigation
(including legal and other expenses), to which the Indemnified Parties may
become subject under any statute, regulation, at common law or otherwise,
insofar as such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses (or actions in
respect thereof) or settlements are related to the sale or acquisition of the
Fund's shares or the Contracts and;
(i) arise out of or are based upon any untrue statements or alleged
untrue statements of any material fact contained in the registration
statement or prospectus for the Contracts or contained in the
Contracts or sales literature for the Contracts (or any amendment or
supplement to any of the foregoing), or arise out of or are based
upon the omission or the alleged omission to state therein a
material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the
statements therein not misleading, provided that this agreement to
indemnify shall not apply as to any Indemnified Party if such
statement or omission or such alleged statement or omission was made
in reliance upon and in conformity with information furnished to the
Company by or on behalf of the Fund for use in the registration
statement or prospectus for the Contracts or in the Contracts or
sales literature (or any amendment or supplement) or otherwise for
use in connection with the sale of the Contracts or Fund shares; or
12
(ii) arise out of or as a result of statements or representations (other
than statements or representations contained in the registration
statement, prospectus or sales literature of the Fund not supplied
by the Company, or persons under its control and other than
statements or representations authorized by the Fund or the
Underwriter) or unlawful conduct of the Company or persons under its
control, with respect to the sale or distribution of the Contracts
or Fund shares; or
(iii) arise out of or as a result of any untrue statement or alleged
untrue statement of a material fact contained in a registration
statement, prospectus, or sales literature of the Fund or any
amendment thereof or supplement thereto or the omission or alleged
omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated
therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading
if such a statement or omission was made in reliance upon and in
conformity with information furnished to the Fund by or on behalf
of the Company; or
(iv) arise as a result of any failure by the Company to provide the
services and furnish the materials under the terms of this
Agreement; or
(v) arise out of or result from any material breach of any
representation and/or warranty made by the Company in this Agreement
or arise out of or result from any other material breach of this
Agreement by the Company.
8.1(b). The Company shall not be liable under this indemnification provision
with respect to any losses, claims, damages, liabilities or litigation incurred
or assessed against an Indemnified Party as such may arise from such Indemnified
Party's willful misfeasance, bad faith, or gross negligence in the performance
of such Indemnified Party's duties or by reason of such Indemnified Party's
reckless disregard of obligations or duties under this Agreement.
8.1(c). The Company shall not be liable under this indemnification provision
with respect to any claim made against an Indemnified Party unless such
Indemnified Party shall have notified the Company in writing within a reasonable
time after the summons or other first legal process giving information of the
nature of the claim shall have been served upon such Indemnified Party (or after
such Indemnified Party shall have received notice of such service on any
designated agent), but failure to notify the Company of any such claim shall not
relieve the Company from any liability which it may have to the Indemnified
Party against whom such action is brought otherwise than on account of this
indemnification provision. In case any such action is brought against the
Indemnified Parties, the Company shall be entitled to participate, at its own
expense, in the defense of such action. The Company also shall be entitled to
assume the defense thereof, with counsel satisfactory to the party named in the
action. After notice from the Company to such party of the Company's election to
assume the defense thereof, the Indemnified Party shall bear the fees and
expenses under this Agreement for any legal or other expenses subsequently
incurred by such Party independently in connection with the defense thereof
other than reasonable costs of investigation.
8.1(d). The Indemnified Parties will promptly notify the Company of the

the issuance or sale of the Fund shares or the Contracts or the operation of the
Fund.

13
(collectively, the "Indemnified Parties" for purposes of this Section 8.2)
against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities (including amounts paid
in settlement with the written consent of the Underwriter) or litigation
(including legal and other expenses) to which the Indemnified Parties may become
subject under any statute, at common law or otherwise, insofar as such losses,
claims, damages, liabilities or expenses (or actions in respect thereof) or
settlements are related to the sale or acquisition of shares of the Portfolio
that it distributes or the Contracts and:
(i) arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement or alleged
untrue statement of any material fact contained in the registration
statement or prospectus or sales literature of the Fund (or any
amendment or supplement to any of the foregoing), or arise out of or
are based upon the omission or the alleged omission to state therein
a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make
the statements therein not misleading, provided that this agreement
to indemnify shall not apply as to any Indemnified Party if such
statement or omission or such alleged statement or omission was made
in reliance upon and in conformity with information furnished to the
Fund or the Underwriter by or on behalf of the Company for use in
the registration statement or prospectus for the Fund or in sales
literature (or any amendment or supplement) or otherwise for use in
connection with the sale of the Contracts or Portfolio shares; or

respective control and other than statements or representations
authorized by the Company) or unlawful conduct of the Fund or
Underwriter or persons under their control, with respect to the sale

untrue statement of a material fact contained in a registration
statement, prospectus, or sales literature covering the Contracts,

stated therein or necessary to make the statement or statements
therein not misleading, if such statement or omission was made in
reliance upon information furnished to the Company by or on behalf
of the Fund or the Underwriter; or
(iv) arise as a result of any failure by the Fund or the Underwriter to
provide the services and furnish the materials under the terms of
this Agreement; or
(v) arise out of or result from any material breach of any
representation and/or warranty made by the Underwriter in this
Agreement or arise out of or result from any other material breach
of this Agreement by the Underwriter; as limited by and in
accordance with the provisions of Section 8.2(b) and 8.2(c) hereof.
8.2(b). The Underwriter shall not be liable under this indemnification
provision with respect to any losses, claims, damages, liabilities or litigation
incurred or assessed against an Indemnified Party as such may arise from such
Indemnified Party's willful misfeasance, bad faith, or gross negligence in the
performance of such Indemnified Party's duties or by reason of such Indemnified
Party's reckless disregard of obligations and duties under this Agreement.
14
8.2(c). The Underwriter shall not be liable under this indemnification
provision with respect to any claim made against an Indemnified Party unless
such Indemnified Party shall have notified the Underwriter in writing within a
reasonable time after the summons or other first legal process giving
information of the nature of the claim shall have been served upon such
Indemnified Party (or after such Indemnified Party shall have received notice of
such service on any designated agent), but failure to notify the Underwriter of
any such claim shall not relieve the Underwriter from any liability which it may
have to the Indemnified Party against whom such action is brought otherwise than
on account of this indemnification provision. In case any such action is brought
against the Indemnified Parties, the Underwriter will be entitled to
participate, at its own expense, in the defense thereof. The Underwriter also
shall be entitled to assume the defense thereof, with counsel satisfactory to
the party named in the action. After notice from the Underwriter to such party
of the Underwriter's election to assume the defense thereof, the Indemnified
Party shall bear the fees and expenses of any additional counsel retained by it,
and the Underwriter will not be liable to such party under this Agreement for
any legal or other expenses subsequently incurred by such party independently in
connection with the defense thereof other than reasonable costs of
investigation.
8.2(d). The Company agrees promptly to notify the Underwriter of the
commencement of any litigation or proceedings against it or any of its officers
or directors in connection with the issuance or sale of the Contracts or the
operation of each Account in which the Funds are made available.
8.3. Indemnification by the Adviser
8.3(a). The Adviser agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Company and its
directors and officers and each person, if any, who controls the Company within
the meaning of Section 15 of the 1993 Act (hereinafter collectively, the
"Indemnified Parties" and individually, "Indemnified Party," for purposes of
this Section 8.3) against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities
(including amounts paid in settlement with the written consent of the Adviser)
or litigation (including legal and other expenses) to which the Indemnified
Parties may become subject under any statute, at common law or otherwise,
insofar as such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses (or actions in
respect thereof) or settlements are related to the operations of the Adviser or
the Fund and:
(i) arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement or alleged
untrue statement of any material fact contained in the registration
statement or prospectus or sales literature of the Fund (or any
amendment or supplement to any of the foregoing), or arise out of or
are based upon the omission or the alleged omission to state therein
a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make
the statements therein not misleading, provided that this agreement
to indemnify shall not apply as to any Indemnified Party if such
statement or omission or such alleged statement or omission was made
in reliance upon and in conformity with information furnished to the
Adviser, the Fund or the Underwriter by or on behalf of the Company
for use in the registration statement or prospectus for the Fund or
in sales literature (or any amendment or supplement) or otherwise

shares; or

than statements or representations contained in the registration
statement, prospectus or sales literature for the Contracts not
supplied by the Fund, the Adviser or persons under its control and
other than statements or representations authorized by the Company)
or unlawful conduct of the
15
Fund, the Adviser or persons under their control, with respect to
the sale or distribution of the Contracts or Portfolio shares; or
(iii) arise out of or as a result of any untrue statement or alleged
untrue statement of a material fact contained in a registration
statement, prospectus, or sales literature covering the Contracts,
or any amendment thereof or supplement thereto, or the omission or
alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be
stated therein or necessary to make the statement or statements
therein not misleading, if such statement or omission was made in
reliance upon information furnished to the Company by or on behalf
of the Fund or the Adviser, or
(iv) arise as a result of any failure by the Adviser to provide the
services and furnish the materials under the terms of this
Agreement; or
(v) arise out of or result from any material breach of any
representation and/or warranty made by the Fund or the Adviser in
this Agreement or arise out of or result from any other material

reckless disregard of obligations and duties under this Agreement.

time after the summons or other first legal process giving information of the
nature of the claim shall have been served upon such Indemnified Party (or after
such indemnified Party shall have received notice of such service on any

Party against whom such action is brought otherwise than on account of this
indemnification provision. In case any such action is brought against the
Indemnified Parties, the Adviser will be entitled to participate, at its own
expense, in the defense thereof. The Adviser also shall be entitled to assume

PROXY VOTING PROCEDURES
The following is a list of procedures and corresponding responsibilities for the
handling of proxies and voting instructions relating to the Fund. The defined
terms herein shall have the meanings assigned in the
Participation Agreement
except that the term "Company" shall also include the department or third party
assigned by the Company to perform the steps delineated below.
1. The proxy proposals are given to the Company by the Fund as early as
possible before the date set by the Fund for the shareholder meeting to enable
the Company to consider and prepare for the solicitation of voting instructions
from owners of the Contracts and to facilitate the establishment of tabulation
procedures. At this time the Fund will inform the Company of the Record, Mailing
and Meeting dates. This will be done verbally approximately two months before
meeting.
2. Promptly after the Record Date, the Company will perform a "tape run," or
other activity, which will generate the names, address and number of units which
are attributed to each contractowner/policyholder (the "Customer") as of the
Record Date. Allowance should be made for account adjustments made after this
date that could affect the status of the Customers' accounts as of the Record
Date.
Note: The number of proxy statements is determined by the activities
described in Step #2. The Company will use its best efforts to call in the
number of Customers to the Fund, as soon as possible, but no later than two
weeks after the Record Date.
3. The Fund's Annual Report must be sent to each Customer by the Company either
before or together with the Customers' receipt of voting instruction
solicitation material. The Fund will provide the last Annual Report to the
Company pursuant to the terms of Section 3.3 of the Agreement to which this
Schedule relates.
4. The text and format for the Voting Instruction Cards ("Cards" or "Card") is
provided to the Company by the Fund. The Company, at its expense, shall produce
and personalize the Voting Instruction Cards. The Fund or its affiliate must
approve the Card before it is printed. Allow approximately 2-4 business days for
printing information on the Cards information commonly found on the Cards
includes:
a. name (legal name as found on account registration)
b. address
c. fund or account number
d. coding to state number of units (or equivalent shares)
e. individual Card number for use in tracking and verification of votes
(already on Cards as printed by the Fund).
(This and related steps may occur later in the chronological process due to
possible uncertainties relating to the proposals.)
25
5. During this time, the Fund will develop, produce, and the Fund will pay for
the Notice of Proxy and the Proxy Statement (one document). Printed and folded
notices and statements will be sent to Company for insertion into envelopes
(envelopes and return envelopes are provided and paid for by the Company).
Contents of envelope sent to Customers by the Company will include:
a. Voting Instruction Card(s)
b. One proxy notice and statement (one document)
c. return envelope (postage pre-paid by Company) addressed to the
Company or its tabulation agent
d. "urge buckslip" -- optional, but recommended. (This is a small,
single sheet of paper that requests Customers to vote as quickly as
possible and that their vote is important. One copy will be supplied
by the Fund.)
e. cover letter -- optional, supplied by Company and reviewed and
approved in advance by the Fund.
6. The above contents should be received by the Company approximately 3-5
business days before mail date. Individual in charge at Company reviews and
approves the contents of the mailing package to ensure correctness and
completeness. Copy of this approval sent to the Fund.
7. Package mailed by the Company.
* The Fund must allow at least a 15-day solicitation time to the
Company as the shareowner. (A 5-week period is recommended.)
Solicitation time is calculated as calendar days from (but not
including.) the meeting, counting backwards.
8. Collection and tabulation of Cards begins. Tabulation usually takes place in
another department or another vendor depending on process used. An often used
procedure is to sort Cards on arrival by proposal into vote categories of all
yes, no, or mixed replies, and to begin data entry.
Note: Postmarks are not generally needed. A need for postmark information
would be due to an insurance company's internal procedure and has not been
required by the Fund in the past.
9. Signatures on Card checked against legal name or account registration which
was printed on the Card.
Note: For example, if the account registration is under "Xxxx X. Xxxxx,
Trustee," then that is the exact legal name to be printed on the Card and
is the signature needed on the Card.
10. Cards are mutilated, or for any reason are illegible or are not signed
properly, they are sent back to Customer with an explanatory letter and a new
Card and return envelope. The mutilated or illegible Card is disregarded and
considered to be not received for purposes of vote tabulation. Any Cards that
have been "kicked out" (e.g., mutilated, illegible) of the procedure are "hand
verified," (i.e., examined as to why they did not complete the system). Any
questions on those Cards are usually remedied individually.
11. There are various control procedures used to ensure proper tabulation of
votes and accuracy of that tabulation. The most prevalent is to sort the Cards
as they first arrive into categories depending upon their vote; an estimate of
how the vote is progressing may then be calculated. If the initial estimates and
the actual vote do not coincide, then an internal audit of that vote should
occur. This may entail a recount.
26
12. The actual tabulation of votes is done in units (or equivalent shares)
which is then converted to shares. (It is very important that the fund receives
the tabulations stated in terms of a percentage and the number of shares.) The
Fund must review and approve tabulation format.
13. Final tabulation in shares is verbally given by the Company to the Fund on
the morning of the meeting not later than 10:00 A.M. Houston time. The Fund may
request an earlier deadline if reasonable and if required to calculate the vote
in time for the meeting.
14. A Certification of Mailing and Authorization to Vote Shares will be
required from the Company as well as an original copy of the final vote. The
Fund will provide a standard form for each Certification.
15. The Company will be required to box and archive the Cards received from the
Customers. In the event that any vote is challenged or if otherwise necessary
for legal, regulatory, or accounting purposes, the Fund will be permitted
reasonable access to such Cards.
16. All approvals and "signing-off" may be done orally, but must always be
followed up in writing.

Attention: Xxxxxx Xxxxx
Dear Mr. Arena:
As you know, we have entered into a participation agreement among Xxx Xxxxxx
Life Investment Trust (the "Fund"), Xxx Xxxxxx Funds Inc., Xxx Xxxxxx Asset
Management and Hartford Life Insurance Company ("HLIC") and Hartford Life and
Annuity Insurance Company ("HL&AIC") (HLIC and HL&AIC, together, the "Company"),
dated July 17, 2000, and amended on May 2, 2005, and as further amended from
time to time (the "Participation Agreement"), providing for, among other things,
the purchase by the Company of Class I and Class II Shares of certain series of
the Fund ("Portfolios") on behalf of its separate account(s) to fund certain
variable life insurance policies and variable annuity contracts (collectively,
the "Contracts"), each as specified in each participation agreement.
As consideration for various fund-related administrative services, such as, but
not limited to, shareholder communication, record keeping and postage expenses,
that the Company will provide in connection with the issuance of the Contracts
("Administrative Services"), we will pay to the Company, during the term of the
Participation Agreements, (i) an annual fee equal to 0.10% of the average daily
net assets invested in Class I Shares, (ii) beginning retroactively as of
December 1, 2004, an additional annual fee equal to 0.05% of the average daily
net assets invested in Class I Shares participating in the Longevity Reward
Rider*; and (iii) an annual fee equal to 0.20% of the average daily net assets
invested in Class II Shares, of the then offered Portfolios with respect to the
Contracts (excluding the "Director M VA Suite" contracts) identified in the
Participation Agreements.
------------
* An additional administrative service fee of 5 bps will be paid to the
Company for Select Dimensions 1 Contracts and Select Dimensions 2 Contracts
electing the Longevity Reward Rider ("LRR Contracts"). This additional
payments will begin retroactively as of December 1, 2004. The fee will be
calculated based on the average daily net assets invested in applicable LRR
Contracts during the quarter (which shall be computed by totaling daily
balances during the quarter and dividing such total by the actual days in
the quarter).
With respect to the "Director M VA Suite" contracts only, we will pay to the
Company, during the term of the Participation Agreements, an annual fee equal to
0.25% of the average daily net assets from the "Director M VA" Suite contracts
invested in Class II Shares of the then offered Portfolios.
All parties agree that calculation of fees payable under this letter agreement
shall exclude all assets invested during any "free look" periods that may be
available under the Contracts. We acknowledge that the Administrative Services
to be provided by the Company are ones for which we, or our affiliates, as
investment adviser and administrator to the Fund, would otherwise bear the cost
directly.
Payment will be made on a quarterly basis during the month following the end of
each calendar quarter or within 30 days of receipt of invoice. Payment shall be
prorated for any portion of such period during which this letter agreement is in
effect for less than the full quarter. The fee will be calculated based on the
average daily net assets invested in Class I and Class II Shares of the
applicable Portfolio(s) with respect to the Contracts during a calendar quarter
(which shall be computed by totaling daily balances during the quarter and
dividing such total by the actual days in the quarter). Company agrees to submit
an invoice for its fees payable under this letter agreement, which shall include
sufficient trading account details needed to calculate such fees. In
circumstances where Company does not submit an invoice (i.e., Hartford Life
Private Placement), the parties agree that the Fund shall calculate the fees
payable under this letter agreement.
The Company represents and agrees that it will maintain and preserve all records
as required by law to be maintained and preserved in connection with providing
the Administrative Services, and will otherwise comply with all laws, rules and
regulations applicable to such services. The Company further agrees to provide
copies of any such records maintained and preserved, as reasonably requested by
us or our representatives, to enable us or the Fund to monitor and review the
Administrative Services provided by the Company, or comply with any reasonable
request of the Board of the Fund, or any lawful or permitted request made by a
governmental body or a self-regulatory organization.
This letter agreement may be amended only upon mutual consent of the parties
hereto in writing and will terminate: (i) upon mutual agreement of the parties
hereto, (ii) upon thirty (30) days advance written notice by either party
delivered to the other party, or (iii) automatically upon the termination of
each of the respective Participation Agreements. This letter agreement, which
the parties agree shall commence effective as of December 1, 2004, supersedes
and replaces all previous letter agreements or other agreements, whether written
or oral, among the parties.

AMENDMENT TO PARTICIPATION AGREEMENT
THIS AMENDMENT is effective as of the 2nd day of May 2005, by and among (i) Xxx
Xxxxxx Life Investment Trust (the "Fund"), Xxx Xxxxxx Funds Inc. (the
"Underwriter"), Xxx Xxxxxx Asset Management (the "Adviser") and (ii) Hartford
Life Insurance Company and Hartford Life and Annuity Insurance Company
(together, the "Company").
WHEREAS, the Fund, the Underwriter, the Adviser and the Company have previously
entered into that certain Participation Agreement dated July 17, 2000, as
amended from time to time (the "Agreement"); and
WHEREAS, each of the parties hereto desires to amend the Agreement to modify the
provisions of Article I, dealing with the purchase and redemption of Fund
shares, and the provisions of Article III, dealing with prospectuses, reports
and other information, as well as update information provided on Schedules A and
B as described herein and attached hereto.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of present and prospective business relations
and their mutual promises contained herein, each of the parties hereby agree as
follows:
1. New Section 1.12 is hereby added to Article I of the Agreement:
1.12. The parties agree that the Contracts are not intended to serve as
vehicles for frequent trading. The Fund and the Company agree to cooperate to
deter frequent purchase, redemption and exchange activity in the Fund where such
activity occurs through the Contracts and has been identified as abusive or
following a "market timing" pattern ("Abusive Trading"). Each of the Fund and
the Company agrees to notify the other of trading activity that it deems to be
abusive Trading Activity.
Subject to Article 10 of the Agreement, the Fund and the Company agree that the
policies and procedures described in the Contract prospectus regarding transfers
among the Sub-Accounts and Abusive Trading controls how the Company administers
Sub-Account transfers. The Fund and the Company agree to amend this provision as
necessary to reflect any applicable law changes.
In the event the Fund implements and requires the Company to comply with and/or
enforce restrictions on trading, market timing policies, redemption fees, or any
other trading policy or procedure that is more restrictive and/or that
conflicts, as determined by the Company in its reasonable discretion, with the
Company's policies and procedures regarding transfers among the Sub-Accounts and
Abusive Trading, the Fund or the Adviser will bear the reasonable cost of
supplement mailings and the Company's system modifications intended to disallow
new purchases, exchanges or transfers into, and to allow only for redemptions
out of, the affected Portfolio of the Fund in the new series of the Contracts
issued on or after May 2, 2005 as identified and footnoted on the attached
Schedule A of the Participation Agreement.
2. Sections 3.1 and 3.2(b) of Article III of the Agreement are hereby deleted
in their entirety and replaced with the following:
3.1. The Fund shall provide the Company with as many printed copies of the
Fund's current prospectus and statement of additional information for each
Portfolio (and no other portfolio), as the Company may reasonably request. If
requested by the Company in lieu of providing printed copies the Fund shall
provide camera-ready film or computer diskettes containing the Fund's prospectus
and statement of additional information, and such other assistance as is
reasonably necessary in order for the Company once each year (or more frequently
if the prospectus and/or statement of additional information for the Fund is
amended during the year) to have the prospectus for the Contracts and the Fund's
prospectus printed together in one document or separately. The Company may elect
to print the Fund's prospectus and/or its statement of additional information in
combination with other fund companies' prospectuses and statements of additional
information.
3.2(b) the Fund, as its expense, shall provide the Company with copies of its
proxy statements, reports to shareholders for the Portfolios (and no other
portfolios), and other communications (except for prospectuses and statements of
additional information, which are covered in Section 3.2(a) above) to
shareholders in such quantity as the Company shall reasonably require for
distributing to Contract owners at the Fund's expense. The Fund shall not pay
any costs of distributing such proxy-related material, reports to shareholders,
and other communications to prospective Contract owners.
3. New Section 3.6 is hereby added to Article III of the Agreement:
3.6 The Fund or its designee will provide the Company 60 days notice of any
change for a Portfolio, including but not limited to, (a) fund objective
changes, (b) anticipated fund mergers/substitutions, (c) no-action or exemptive
requests from the SEC, (d) fund name changes, (e) fund adviser or sub-adviser
changes; and/or (f) conditions or undertakings that affect the Company's rights
or obligations hereunder.
4. Schedule A of the Participation Agreement is deleted and replaced in its
entirety with the attached Schedule A.
5. Schedule B of the Participation Agreement is unchanged but restated in its
entirety in the attached Schedule B.
6. In all other respects, the terms of the Agreement remain in full force and
effect.
7. This Amendment may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of which
shall be deemed an original and all of which together will be deemed one and the
same document.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have executed this Amendment to be
effective as of the first date written above.
