• Redemption and Repurchase; Discharge Prior to Redemption or Maturity This Note is subject to optional redemption, and may be the subject of an Offer to Purchase, as further described in the Indenture. There is no sinking fund or mandatory redemption applicable to this Note. If the Company deposits with the Trustee money or U.S. Government Obligations sufficient to pay the then outstanding principal of, premium, if any, and accrued interest on the Notes to redemption or maturity, the Company may in certain circumstances be discharged from the Indenture and the Notes or may be discharged from certain of its obligations under certain provisions of the Indenture.

• Redemption of Units Any redemption of Units by the Company permitted under Article III shall be conducted in accordance with this Section 3.13. (a) The Company shall, not later than 30 days before the date fixed for redemption, give notice of redemption to the Member at its last address designated on the records of the Company or the Transfer Agent, by registered or certified mail, postage prepaid, or overnight courier of national reputation. The notice shall be deemed to have been given when so mailed. The notice shall specify the Redeemable Units, the date fixed for redemption, the place of payment, that payment of the redemption price will be made upon the redemption of the Redeemable Units (or, if later in the case of Redeemable Units evidenced by Certificates, upon surrender of the Certificates evidencing such Redeemable Units) and that on and after the date fixed for redemption no further allocations or distributions to which the Member would otherwise be entitled in respect of the Redeemable Units will accrue or be made. (b) The aggregate redemption price for Redeemable Units shall be an amount equal to the Current Market Price (the date of determination of which shall be the date fixed for redemption) of Units of the class to be so redeemed multiplied by the number of Units of each such class included among the Redeemable Units, net of any costs or expenses incurred by the Company in connection with such redemption. Subject to the Delaware Act, the redemption price shall be paid, as determined by the Company in its sole discretion, (i) in cash, (ii) by delivery of a promissory note of the Company in the principal amount of the redemption price, bearing interest at the rate of 8% annually and payable in three equal annual installments of principal together with accrued interest, the first such installment commencing one year after the redemption date (or, if later in the case of Redeemable Units evidenced by Certificates, upon surrender of the Certificates evidencing such Redeemable Units) or (iii) a combination of cash and a promissory note having the terms described in clause (ii). (c) The Member or its duly authorized representative shall be entitled to receive the payment for Redeemable Units at the place of payment specified in the notice of redemption (i) in the case of uncertificated Redeemable Units, on the redemption date or (ii) in the case of Redeemable Units evidenced by Certificates, upon surrender, on the redemption date or thereafter, by or on behalf of the Member, of the Certificates evidencing the Redeemable Units, duly endorsed in blank or accompanied by an assignment duly executed in blank. (d) After the redemption date, Redeemable Units shall no longer constitute Outstanding Units.

• Optional Redemption of Notes Prior to the Par Call Date, the Company may redeem the Notes at its option, in whole or in part, at a redemption price (expressed as a percentage of principal amount and rounded to three decimal places) (the “Redemption Price”) equal to the greater of (i) (a) the sum of the present values of the remaining scheduled payments of principal and interest thereon discounted to the Redemption Date (assuming the Notes matured on the Par Call Date) on a semi-annual basis (assuming a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months) at the Treasury Rate plus 25 basis points less (b) interest accrued to but excluding the Redemption Date; and (ii) 100% of the principal amount of the Notes; plus, in either case, accrued and unpaid interest thereon to the Redemption Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Notes are redeemed on or after the Par Call Date, the Company may redeem the Notes, in whole or in part, at any time or from time to time, at a Redemption Price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes being redeemed plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon to the Redemption Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Redemption Date falls after a Record Date and on or prior to the corresponding Interest Payment Date, the Company will pay the full amount of accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on such Interest Payment Date to the Holder of record at the close of business on the corresponding Record Date (instead of the Holder surrendering its Notes for redemption). The Company shall not redeem the Notes pursuant to this Section 4.1 if on any date the principal amount of the Notes has been accelerated, and such acceleration has not been rescinded or cured on or prior to such date. The Company’s actions and determinations in determining the Redemption Price shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error.

• Purchase and Redemption of Trust Portfolio Shares 3.1 We will make shares of the Portfolios available to the Accounts for the benefit of the Contracts. The shares will be available for purchase at the net asset value per share next computed after we (or our agent) receive a purchase order, as established in accordance with the provisions of the then current prospectus of the Trust. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Trust's Board of Trustees ("Trustees") may refuse to sell shares of any Portfolio to any person, or may suspend or terminate the offering of shares of any Portfolio if such action is required by law or by regulatory authorities having jurisdiction or if, in the sole discretion of the Trustees, acting in good faith and in light of their fiduciary duties under federal and any applicable state laws, they deem such action to be in the best interests of the shareholders of such Portfolio. 3.2 We agree that shares of the Trust will be sold only to life insurance companies which have entered into fund participation agreements with the Trust ("Participating Insurance Companies") and their separate accounts or to qualified pension and retirement plans in accordance with the terms of the Shared Funding Order. No shares of any Portfolio will be sold to the general public. 3.3 You shall be the designee for us for receipt of purchase orders and requests for redemption resulting from investment in and payments under the Contracts ("Instructions"). The Business Day on which such Instructions are received in proper form by you by the close of trading will be the date as of which Portfolio shares shall be deemed purchased, exchanged, or redeemed as a result of such Instructions, provided you transmit such instructions to us no later than 9:30 a.m. Eastern Time on the next Business Day. Instructions received in proper form by you after the close of trading on any given Business Day shall be treated as if received on the next following Business Day. Instructions we receive from you after 9:30 a.m. Eastern Time shall be processed on the next Business Day. "Business Day" shall mean any day on which the New York Stock Exchange is open for trading and on which the Trust calculates its net asset value pursuant to the rules of the SEC and its current prospectus.

• Optional Redemption by Company (a) Subject to Article XI of the Base Indenture, the Company shall have the right to redeem the Notes, at any time in whole or from time to time in part, at a redemption price (the “Optional Redemption Price”) equal to the greater of: (i) 100% of the principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but excluding, the Redemption Date; or (ii) the sum of the present values of the Remaining Scheduled Payments of principal and interest in respect of the Notes to be redeemed discounted to the Redemption Date (excluding interest accrued to the Redemption Date) on a semiannual basis (assuming a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months), at a rate equal to the Treasury Rate plus 35 basis points, plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but excluding, the Redemption Date. On and after a Redemption Date, interest will cease to accrue on the Notes called for redemption (unless the Company defaults in the payment of the Optional Redemption Price and accrued interest). On or before a Redemption Date, the Company will deposit with a Paying Agent (or the Trustee) money sufficient to pay the Optional Redemption Price of and accrued interest on the Notes to be redeemed on that date. If less than all of the Notes are to be redeemed, the Notes to be redeemed shall be selected by the Trustee pro rata or by lot or by a method the Trustee deems to be fair and appropriate; provided that if at the time of redemption the Notes to be redeemed are registered as one or more Global Securities, the Depositary shall determine, in accordance with its procedures, the principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed held by each Holder of such Notes. (b) Notice of any redemption pursuant to this Section 4.1 shall be given as provided in Section 1104 of the Base Indenture, except that any notice of such redemption shall not specify the related Optional Redemption Price but only the manner of calculation thereof. The Trustee shall not be responsible for the calculation of such Optional Redemption Price. The Company shall calculate such Optional Redemption Price and promptly notify the Trustee thereof.

• Procedures for Redemption (i) Notice of redemption will be (i) faxed, and (ii) mailed by the Partnership, by certified mail, postage prepaid, not less than 30 nor more than 60 days prior to the redemption date, addressed to the respective holders of record of the Series K Preferred Units at their respective addresses as they appear on the records of the Partnership. No failure to give or defect in such notice shall affect the validity of the proceedings for the redemption of any Series K Preferred Units except as to the holder to whom such notice was defective or not given. In addition to any information required by law, each such notice shall state: (a) the redemption date, (b) the Redemption Price, (c) the aggregate number of Series K Preferred Units to be redeemed and if fewer than all of the outstanding Series K Preferred Units are to be redeemed, the number of Series K Preferred Units to be redeemed held by such holder, which number shall equal such holder's pro rata share (based on the percentage of the aggregate number of outstanding Series K Preferred Units that the total number of Series K Preferred Units held by such holder represents) of the aggregate number of Series K Preferred Units to be redeemed, (d) the place or places where such Series K Preferred Units are to be surrendered for payment of the Redemption Price, (e) that distributions on the Series K Preferred Units to be redeemed will cease to accumulate on such redemption date and (f) that payment of the Redemption Price will be made upon presentation and surrender of such Series K Preferred Units. (ii) If the Partnership gives a notice of redemption in respect of Series K Preferred Units (which notice will be irrevocable) then, by 12:00 noon, New York City time, on the redemption date, the Partnership will deposit irrevocably in trust for the benefit of the Series K Preferred Units being redeemed funds sufficient to pay the applicable Redemption Price and will give irrevocable instructions and authority to pay such Redemption Price to the holders of the Series K Preferred Units upon surrender of the Series K Preferred Units by such holders at the place designated in the notice of redemption. On and after the date of redemption, distributions will cease to accumulate on the Series K Preferred Units or portions thereof called for redemption, unless the Partnership defaults in the payment thereof. If any date fixed for redemption of Series K Preferred Units is not a Business Day, then payment of the Redemption Price payable on such date will be made on the next succeeding day that is a Business Day (and without any interest or other payment in respect of any such delay) except that, if such Business Day falls in the next calendar year, such payment will be made on the immediately preceding Business Day, in each case with the same force and effect as if made on such date fixed for redemption. If payment of the Redemption Price is improperly withheld or refused and not paid by the Partnership, distributions on such Series K Preferred Units will continue to accumulate from the original redemption date to the date of payment, in which case the actual payment date will be considered the date fixed for redemption for purposes of calculating the applicable Redemption Price.

• Issue and Redemption of Fund Shares All expenses incurred in connection with the issue, redemption, and transfer of the Fund’s shares, including the expense of confirming all share transactions;

• Discharge Prior to Redemption or Maturity If the Company at any time deposits with the Trustee U.S. Legal Tender or U.S. Government Obligations sufficient to pay the principal of and interest on the Notes to redemption or maturity and complies with the other provisions of the Indenture relating thereto, the Company will be discharged from certain provisions of the Indenture and the Notes (including certain covenants, but excluding its obligation to pay the principal of and interest on the Notes).

• Redemption or Repurchase The Distributor shall act as agent for the Trust in connection with the redemption or repurchase of Series shares by the Trust to the extent and upon the terms and conditions set forth in the current applicable prospectus of the Trust relating to the Series shares, and the Trust agrees to reimburse the Distributor, from time to time upon demand, for any reasonable expenses incurred in connection with such redemptions or repurchases. The Trust will remit to the Distributor any contingent deferred sales charges imposed on redemptions or repurchases of Series shares (other than Class B shares) upon the terms and conditions set forth in the then current prospectus of the Trust. The Trust will also remit to the Distributor (or its designee or transferee), in addition to the Class B Distribution Fee, any contingent deferred sales charges imposed on redemptions or repurchases of Class B shares, in accordance with the Remittance Agreement attached hereto as Exhibit B.
