Representations and Warranties by You You represent and warrant that: 2.1.1 You are an insurance company duly organized and in good standing under the laws of your state of incorporation. 2.1.2 All of your directors, officers, employees, and other individuals or entities dealing with the money and/or securities of the Trust are and shall be at all times covered by a blanket fidelity bond or similar coverage for the benefit of the Trust, in an amount not less than $5 million. Such bond shall include coverage for larceny and embezzlement and shall be issued by a reputable bonding company. You agree to make all reasonable efforts to see that this bond or another bond containing such provisions is always in effect, and you agree to notify us in the event that such coverage no longer applies. 2.1.3 Each Account is a duly organized, validly existing segregated asset account under applicable insurance law and interests in each Account are offered exclusively through the purchase of or transfer into a "variable contract" within the meaning of such terms under Section 817 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended ("Code") and the regulations thereunder. You will use your best efforts to continue to meet such definitional requirements, and will notify us immediately upon having a reasonable basis for believing that such requirements have ceased to be met or that they might not be met in the future. 2.1.4 Each Account either: (i) has been registered or, prior to any issuance or sale of the Contracts, will be registered as a unit investment trust under the Investment Company Act of 1940 ("1940 Act"); or (ii) has not been so registered in proper reliance upon an exemption from registration under Section 3(c) of the 1940 Act; if the Account is exempt from registration as an investment company under Section 3(c) of the 1940 Act, you will use your best efforts to maintain such exemption and will notify us immediately upon having a reasonable basis for believing that such exemption no longer applies or might not apply in the future. 2.1.5 The Contracts or interests in the Accounts: (i) are or, prior to any issuance or sale will be, registered as securities under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "1933 Act"); or (ii) are not registered because they are properly exempt from registration under Section 3(a)(2) of the 1933 Act or will be offered exclusively in transactions that are properly exempt from registration under Section 4(2) or Regulation D of the 1933 Act, in which case you will make every effort to maintain such exemption and will notify us immediately upon having a reasonable basis for believing that such exemption no longer applies or might not apply in the future.

Investment Representations and Warranties Each Transferor Partner for itself, severally and not jointly, represents, warrants, acknowledges and agrees as follows: (a) Such Transferor Partner is acquiring the BRI Partnership Units for investment only to be received by it for its own account and not with any view to the sale or distribution of the same or any part thereof in violation of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Act") and it will not sell or otherwise dispose of such BRI Partnership Units except in compliance with the registration requirements or exemption provisions of any applicable securities laws and in accordance with the terms of the BRI Partnership Agreement and the Registration Rights Agreement. (b) Such Transferor Partner understands that the BRI Partnership Units to be issued to each Transferor Partner will not be registered under the Act, or the securities laws of any state ("Blue Sky Laws") by reason of a specific exemption or exemptions from registration under the Act and applicable Blue Sky Laws and that BRI's and the BRI Partnership's reliance on such exemptions is predicated in part on the accuracy and completeness of the representations and warranties of such Transferor Partner. (c) Such Transferor Partner acknowledges and agrees that, for the reasons set forth in Sections 5.35(a) and (b) above, the BRI Partnership Units (or shares of common stock issued upon exchange of the BRI Partnership Units) may not be offered, sold, transferred, pledged, or otherwise disposed of by such Transferor Partner except (i) pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Act and any applicable Blue Sky Laws, (ii) pursuant to a no-action letter issued by the Securities and Exchange Commission to the effect that a proposed transfer of the BRI Partnership Units (or shares of common stock issued upon exchange of the BRI Partnership Units) may be made without registration under the Act, together with either registration or an exemption under applicable Blue Sky Laws, or (iii) upon the BRI Partnership or BRI, as the case may be, receiving an opinion of counsel knowledgeable in securities law matters (and which opinion and counsel shall be reasonably acceptable to both the BRI Partnership and BRI) to the effect that the proposed transfer is exempt from the registration requirements of the Act and any applicable Blue Sky Laws, and that, accordingly, such Transferor Partner must bear the economic risk of an investment in the BRI Partnership Units (and the shares of common stock issued upon exchange of the BRI Partnership Units) for an indefinite period of time. Such Transferor Partner acknowledges, represents and agrees that (i) its economic circumstances are such that it is able to bear all risks of the investment in the BRI Partnership and BRI for an indefinite period of time, including the risk of a complete loss of its investment in the BRI Partnership Units (or shares of common stock issued upon exchange of the BRI Partnership Units), (ii) it has knowledge and experience in financial and business matters sufficient to evaluate the risks of investment in the BRI Partnership Units and BRI, and (iii) it has consulted with its own separate counsel and tax advisor, to the extent deemed necessary by it, as to all legal and taxation matters covered by this Agreement and has not relied upon the BRI Partnership or the Transferor Agent, its affiliates or its other legal counsel and advisors for any explanation of the application of the various United States or state securities laws or tax laws with regard to its acquisition of the BRI Partnership Units. Such Transferor Partner further acknowledges and represents that it has made its own independent investigation of the BRI Partnership and the business conducted or proposed to be conducted by the BRI Partnership. (d) Such Transferor Partner is an "accredited investor" within the meaning of Rule 501(a) promulgated under the Act.
