Without limiting the generality of anything contained elsewhere in this Agreement, the parties hereto acknowledge that actions described in this Article II of this Agreement, or described in any Schedule to this Agreement, as being actions or duties to be taken or executed by the Company with respect to the Contracts may, in fact, be performed by Pruco Securities or Prudential pursuant to written agreements with the Company.

2.1. Each Fund and the Distributor shall make shares of the Portfolios available to the Accounts. For purposes of this Section 2.1, Pruco shall be the designee of each Fund for receipt of such orders and

receipt by such designee shall constitute receipt by the Fund; provided that the Fund receives notice in accordance with the operational procedures set forth in Section 2.5 below.

2.2. Each Fund reserves the right to refuse any purchase order or to 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 Fund acting in good faith, it is necessary or appropriate in the best interests of the shareholders of such Portfolio. All orders accepted by Pruco shall be subject to the terms of the then current Prospectus of the applicable Fund. Pruco shall use its best efforts, and shall reasonably cooperate with a Fund, to enforce stated Prospectus policies regarding transactions in Portfolio shares. Pruco acknowledges that orders accepted by it in violation of a Fund’s stated policies may be subsequently revoked or canceled by the Fund and that the Fund shall not be responsible for any losses incurred by Pruco, the Account or the Contract Owner as a result of such cancellation.

2.3. Each Fund will redeem for cash any full or fractional shares of any Portfolio when requested by Pruco on behalf of an Account. For purposes of this Section 2.3, Pruco shall be the designee of each Fund for receipt of requests for redemption and receipt by such designee shall constitute receipt by the Fund, provided that the Fund receives notice of any such request for redemption in accordance with the operational procedures set forth in Section 2.5 below.

2.4. The Distributor and each Fund agree that shares of the Portfolios will be sold only to (a) insurance companies for use in conjunction with variable life insurance policies or variable annuities or (b) qualified pension and retirement plans (“Qualified Plans”). The parties hereto acknowledge that the arrangement contemplated by this Agreement is not exclusive; a Portfolio’s shares may be sold to other insurance companies and the cash value of the Contracts may be invested in other investment companies.

2.5. Operational Procedures. Pruco will receive instructions from the Contract Owners for the purchase, redemption and exchange of shares of the Portfolios (“Instructions”), and shall aggregate and calculate the net purchase and redemption orders for each Account received each Business Day prior to the close of the New York Stock Exchange (generally 4:00 p.m. Eastern Time) (“Market Close”). Pruco will not aggregate Instructions received from the Contract Owners after Market Close with Instructions it received before Market Close, and warrants that its internal control structure concerning the processing and transmission of Instructions is suitably designed to prevent or detect on a timely basis Instructions received after Market Close from being aggregated with Instructions received before Market Close and to minimize errors that could result in late transmission of Instructions. Instructions received by Pruco before Market Close on any Business Day will receive that day’s NAV. Instructions received by Pruco after Market

Close on any Business Day will be treated as received on the next Business Day and will be executed at the next Business Day’s NAV.

(a) Fund/SERV Transactions: The parties will ordinarily use the NSCC Fund/SERV system and will follow the applicable operating procedures of the NSCC Defined Contribution Clearance & Settlement (DCC&S) Cycle 8 (generally, 6:30 a.m. Eastern Time) as the preferred method of processing the transactions described herein. If Pruco is unable to meet NSCC DCC&S Cycle 8, the Company will immediately notify the Fund or its designee, but in no event shall such notice be provided later than 8:00 a.m. Eastern Time on the applicable day. Upon such notice, the Fund or its designee will agree to allow the Company additional time; provided that Pruco shall provide trade amounts no later than 8:30 a.m. Eastern Time. If the NSCC Fund/SERV system is used, the following provisions will apply: (i) On each Business Day, the Company shall communicate by Fund/SERV, the aggregate purchase or redemption orders (if any) of Portfolio shares, based on Instructions received for each Account by the prior Business Day’s Market Close, by no later than NSCC DCC&S Cycle 8 or such other time as may be agreed upon by the parties from time to time as described above. All Instructions received by Pruco after Market Close on a Business Day shall not be transmitted to NSCC prior to the conclusion of NSCC DCC&S Cycle 8 on the following Business Day, or such other time as may be agreed upon by the parties from time to time as described above, and Pruco represents that orders it receives after Market Close on any given Business Day will be transmitted using the following Business Day’s NAV. The Fund or its designee may process orders received after NSCC DCC&S Cycle 8 deadline, or such other time as may be agreed upon by the parties from time to time as described above, using the NAV next determined. (ii) When transmitting purchase or redemption orders for shares of the Portfolios, Pruco shall submit one order for all Account purchase transactions and one order for all Account redemption transactions, unless otherwise agreed to by Pruco the Fund or its designee. (iii) All orders are subject to acceptance by the Fund or its designee and become effective only upon confirmation by the Fund or its designee. Upon confirmation, the Fund or its designee will verify total purchases and redemptions and the closing share position for each Account. In the case of delayed settlement, the Fund or its designee shall make arrangements for the settlement of redemptions by wire no later than the time permitted for settlement of redemption orders by the 1940 Act. (iv) Pruco’s payment for purchases of Portfolio shares shall be from the designated NSCC Settling Bank on behalf of Pruco by the time specified by the Transfer Agent. “Settling Bank” shall mean the entity appointed by the party to perform such settlement services, which entity agrees to abide by NSCC’s then current rules and procedures insofar as they related to funds settlement. (v) Each Fund shall pay and transmit the proceeds of redemptions of Portfolio shares from the designated NSCC Settling Bank on behalf of the Fund in

accordance with NSCC’s then current rules and procedures; provided, however, that the Fund may delay payment in extraordinary circumstances to the extent permitted under Section 22(e) of the 1940 Act.

(b) Manual Transactions: The parties will process manual transactions via facsimile (or by other agreed electronic means) if there are technical problems with Fund/SERV, or if the parties are not able to transmit or receive information through Fund/SERV. If manual transactions are used, the following provisions will apply: (i) On each Business Day, by 8:30 a.m. Eastern Time, Pruco shall communicate to the Fund or its designee the aggregate amounts for purchase or redemption orders (if any) of Portfolio shares, based on Instructions received for each Account by the prior Business Day’s Market Close. All Instructions received by Pruco after Market Close on a Business Day shall not be communicated to the Fund or its designee until after 8:30 a.m. Eastern Time on the following Business Day, and Pruco represents that orders it receives after Market Close on any given Business Day will be transmitted using the following Business Day’s NAV. The Fund or its designee will process orders received after the 8:30 a.m. Eastern Time deadline using the NAV next determined. (ii) Pruco will communicate orders to purchase or redeem shares of each Portfolio separately, and submit one order for all Account purchase transactions, reflecting the net dollar amount to be invested in each Portfolio, and one order for all Account redemption transactions, reflecting the net dollar amount to be redeemed from each Portfolio, unless otherwise agreed to by Pruco, the Fund or its designee. (iii) All orders are subject to acceptance by the Fund or its designee and become effective only upon confirmation by the Fund or its designee. Upon confirmation, the Fund or its designee will verify total purchases and redemptions and the closing share position for each Account. In the case of delayed settlement, the Fund or its designee shall make arrangements for the settlement of redemptions by wire no later than the time permitted for settlement of redemption orders by the 1940 Act. (iv) Pruco shall pay for Portfolio shares by 3:00 p.m. Eastern Time on the next Business Day after an order to purchase Portfolio shares is received in accordance with the provisions of this Section 2.5(b). Payment shall be in federal funds transmitted by wire and/or by a credit for any shares redeemed the same day as the purchase. (v) Each Fund shall pay and transmit the proceeds of redemptions of Portfolio shares by 3:00 p.m. Eastern Time on the next Business Day after a redemption order is received in accordance with this Section 2.5(b); provided, however, that the Fund may delay payment in extraordinary circumstances to the extent permitted under Section 22(e) of the 1940 Act. Payment shall be in federal funds transmitted by wire and/or a credit for any shares purchased the same day as the redemption. Each Fund shall not bear any responsibility for the proper disbursement or crediting of redemption proceeds by Pruco; Pruco alone shall be responsible for such action.

2.6. Issuance and transfer of a Portfolio’s shares will be by book entry only. Stock certificates will not be issued to Pruco or the Accounts. Shares purchased from a Portfolio will be recorded in an appropriate title for the relevant Account or the relevant sub-account of an Account. Each Fund will furnish to Pruco the CUSIP number assigned to each Portfolio identified in Schedule A hereto, as it may be amended from time to time.

2.7. The Distributor shall notify Pruco in advance, but not later than same day notice (by electronic communication or telephone, followed by electronic confirmation) to Pruco, of any income, dividends or capital gain distributions payable on a Portfolio’s shares. Pruco hereby elects to receive all such income dividends and capital gain distributions as are payable on a Portfolio’s shares in additional shares of that Portfolio. A Fund shall notify Pruco by the end of the next following Business Day of the number of shares so issued as payment of such dividends and distributions.

2.8. Each Fund shall make the NAV for each Portfolio available to Pruco on each Business Day as soon as reasonably practicable after the NAV is calculated and shall use its best efforts to make such NAV available by 6:30 p.m. Eastern Time. In the event of an error in the computation of a Portfolio’s NAV or any dividend or capital gain distribution (each, a “pricing error”), the applicable Fund shall immediately notify Pruco as soon as possible after discovery of the error. Such notification may be verbal, but shall be confirmed promptly in writing. A pricing error shall be corrected as follows: (a) if the pricing error results in a difference between the erroneous NAV and the correct NAV of less than $0.01 per share, then no corrective action need be taken; (b) if the pricing error results in a difference between the erroneous NAV and the correct NAV equal to or greater than $0.01 per share, but less than ½ of 1% of the Portfolio’s NAV at the time of the error, then the Adviser shall reimburse the Portfolio for any loss, after taking into consideration any positive effect of such error; however, no adjustments to Contract Owner accounts need be made; and (c) if the pricing error results in a difference between the erroneous NAV and the correct NAV equal to or greater than ½ of 1% of the Portfolio’s NAV at the time of the error, then the Adviser shall reimburse the Portfolio for any loss (without taking into consideration any positive effect of such error) and shall reimburse Pruco for the costs of adjustments made to correct Contract Owner accounts, such reimbursements to be made in accordance with the provisions of the Adviser’s current pricing policy. If an adjustment is necessary to correct a material error that has caused Contract Owners to receive less than the amount to which they are entitled, the number of shares of the applicable sub-account of such Contract Owners will be adjusted and the amount of any underpayments shall be credited by the Adviser to Pruco for crediting of such amounts to the applicable Contract Owner’s accounts. Upon notification by the Adviser of any overpayment due to a material error, Pruco shall promptly remit to the Adviser any

overpayment that has not been paid to Contract Owners. A pricing error within categories (b) or (c) above shall be deemed to be “materially incorrect” or constitute a “material error” for purposes of this Agreement. The standards set forth in this Section 2.8 are based on the parties’ understanding of the views expressed by the staff of the SEC as of the date of this Agreement. In the event the views of the SEC staff are later modified or superseded by SEC or judicial interpretation, the parties shall amend the foregoing provisions of this Agreement to comport with the appropriate applicable standards, on terms mutually satisfactory to all parties.

2.9. Pruco agrees to notify a Fund of any investment restrictions imposed by state insurance law and/or any contracts applicable to the Fund. The parties agree to mutually cooperate with respect to any state insurance law restriction or requirement applicable to a Fund’s investments to the extent such cooperation is permissible under the terms and conditions of Funds’ prospectuses and other governing laws.

(c) vote Portfolio shares held in the Accounts for which no instructions have been received in the same proportion as Portfolio shares for which instructions have been received from Contract Owners, so long as and to the extent that the SEC continues to interpret the 1940 Act to require pass-through voting privileges for variable contract owners; and

(d) vote Portfolio shares held in its general account or otherwise in the same proportion as Portfolio shares for which instructions have been received from Contract Owners, so long as and to the extent that the SEC continues to interpret the 1940 Act to require such voting by an insurance company. Pruco reserves the right to vote Portfolio shares in its own right, to the extent permitted by law.

4.7. Pruco shall be responsible for assuring that each of the Company’s separate accounts holding shares of a Portfolio calculates voting privileges as directed by the applicable Fund and agreed to by Pruco and the Fund.

4.8. Each Fund will comply with all provisions of the 1940 Act requiring voting by shareholders, and in particular each Fund will either provide for annual meetings (except insofar as the SEC may interpret Section 16 of the 1940 Act not to require such meetings) or, as each Fund currently intends, comply with Section 16(c) of the 1940 Act (although no Fund is one of the trusts described in Section 16(c) of that Act) as well as with Sections 16(a) and, if and when applicable, 16(b).

5.1. (a) Pruco shall not disclose any information or make any representations or statements relating to a Fund or Portfolio in connection with the sale of the Contracts other than the information, representations or statements contained in the registration statement, including a Fund’s Prospectus or SAI, as the same may be amended or supplemented from time to time, or in sales literature or other promotional material approved by a Fund, the Distributor and/or the Adviser, except with the prior written consent of the Fund, Distributor and/or Adviser, as applicable.

(b) Pruco shall furnish, or cause to be furnished, to each Fund, as applicable, prior to use each piece of sales literature or other promotional material (collectively, “material”) prepared by Pruco in which a Fund (or a Portfolio), the Distributor, the Adviser and/or any of their respective affiliates is named or described at least 5 business days prior to its use. No piece of such material shall be used by Pruco without the prior approval of the Fund, Distributor and/or Adviser, which approval will not be unreasonably withheld. No material will be used if the Fund, the Distributor or the Adviser reasonably objects to its use within 5 business days following receipt of such material. Each Fund, the Distributor and the Adviser each agree that it will use its best efforts to respond promptly to any request by Pruco for such prior approval. Notwithstanding the forgoing, Pruco may refer to a Fund or Portfolio as part of a list of mutual funds available under the Contracts without such prior approval or furnishing such material to the Fund, Distributor and/or the Adviser. Neither the Funds, Distributor or the Adviser will be responsible for

errors or omissions in, or the content of, Pruco’s material except to the extent that the error or omission resulted from information provided by or on behalf of the Fund, Distributor or the Adviser.

5.2. (a) Each Fund, the Distributor and the Adviser shall not disclose any information or make any representations on behalf of Pruco or concerning Pruco, the Accounts, or the Contracts other than the information or representations contained in a registration statement, including the prospectus or SAI, for the Contracts, as the same may be amended or supplemented from time to time, or in material approved by Pruco or its designees, except with the prior written consent of Pruco.

(b) Each Fund, the Distributor and the Adviser shall furnish, or cause to be furnished, to Pruco prior to use each piece of material prepared by the Fund, the Distributor and the Adviser in which Pruco and/or any of its affiliates are named or described at least 5 business days prior to its use. No piece of such material shall be used by the Fund, the Distributor and the Adviser without the prior approval of Pruco, which approval will not be unreasonably withheld. Pruco agrees that it will use its best efforts to respond promptly to any request by a Fund, the Distributor or the Adviser for such prior approval.

5.3. For purposes of this Article V and Article IX, the phrase “sales literature and other promotional material” includes, but is not limited to, advertisements (such as material published, or designed for use in, a newspaper, magazine, or other periodical, radio, television, telephone or tape recording, videotape display, signs or billboards, motion pictures, or other public media; e.g., on-line networks such as the Internet or other electronic media), sales literature (i.e., any written communication distributed or made generally available to customers or the public, including brochures, circulars, research reports, market letters, form letters, seminar texts, reprints or excerpts of any other advertisement, sales literature, or published article), educational or training materials or other communications distributed or made generally available to some or all agents or employees, and shareholder reports, and proxy materials (including solicitations for voting instructions), information statements and any other material constituting sales literature or advertising under the FINRA rules, the 1933 Act or the 0000 Xxx.

5.4. At the request of any party to this Agreement, each other party will make available to the requesting party’s independent auditors and/or representatives of the appropriate regulatory agencies, all records, data and access to operating procedures that may be reasonably requested in connection with compliance and regulatory requirements related to this Agreement or any party’s obligations under this Agreement.

ARTICLE VI. Fees and Expenses

6.1. Each Fund, the Distributor, the Transfer Agent and the Adviser shall pay no fee or other compensation to the Company or Pruco under this Agreement, and the Company and Pruco shall pay no fee or other compensation to a Fund, the Distributor, the Transfer Agent or the Adviser under this Agreement; provided, however, that (a) the parties will bear their own expenses as reflected in Schedule C and other provisions of this Agreement, and (b) the parties may enter into other agreements relating to the Pruco’s investment in a Fund or Portfolio, including services agreements. Notwithstanding the foregoing, pursuant to the distribution plans adopted by each Fund pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act for certain classes of its shares, and as contemplated by Section 3.2(b) of this Agreement, each Fund or Portfolio or class of shares thereof, with the exception of Class IA shares, may pay the Distributor and the Distributor may pay the Underwriter as principal underwriter or distributors of one or more classes of Contracts, or the Company, for activities primarily intended to result in the servicing of Contracts or of the sale/servicing of Portfolio shares to the Accounts through which such Contracts were issued. In addition, if a Fund or Portfolio or any class of shares thereof implements a service fee, such Fund or Portfolio or class of shares thereof shall pay Pruco for administrative support services.

ARTICLE VII. Diversification and Qualification

7.1. Each Fund, the Distributor and the Adviser represent and warrant that each Fund and each Portfolio thereof will at all times comply with Section 817(h) of the Code and Treasury Regulation §1.817-5 or any other regulations promulgated under Section 817(h), as amended from time to time, and any Treasury interpretations thereof, relating to the diversification requirements for variable annuity, endowment, or life insurance contracts and any amendments or other modifications or successor provisions to such Section or Regulations. Each Fund, the Distributor or the Adviser will notify Pruco immediately upon having a reasonable basis for believing that a Fund or any Portfolio has ceased to comply with the Section 817(h) diversification or might not so comply in the future. To the extent that a Fund or Portfolio ceases to so qualify, the Fund and the Adviser will use their best efforts to take all steps necessary to adequately diversify the affected Portfolio so as to achieve compliance within the grace period afforded by Treasury Regulation §1.817-5.

7.2. Each Fund, the Distributor and the Adviser represent and warrant that each Fund and each Portfolio is currently qualified as a Regulated Investment Company under Subchapter M of the Code, and that each Portfolio will maintain such qualification (under Subchapter M or any successor or similar provisions) as long as this Agreement is in effect. Each Fund, the Distributor or the Adviser will notify Pruco immediately upon having a reasonable basis for believing that a Fund or any Portfolio has ceased to comply with the Subchapter M qualification requirements or might not so comply in the future.

7.3. Without in any way limiting the effect of Sections 9.2, 9.3 and 9.4 hereof and without in any way limiting or restricting any other remedies available to Pruco, the Adviser or the Distributor will pay all costs associated with or arising out of any failure, or any anticipated or reasonably foreseeable failure, of a Fund or any Portfolio to comply with Sections 7.1 or 7.2 hereof, including all costs associated with reasonable and appropriate corrections or responses to any such failure; such costs may include, but are not limited to, the costs involved in creating, organizing, and registering a new investment company as a funding medium for the Contracts and/or the costs of obtaining whatever regulatory authorizations are required to substitute shares of another investment company for those of the failed Portfolio (including but not limited to an order pursuant to Section 26(c) of the 1940 Act). In addition, the Distributor or the Adviser shall bear the costs of bringing Contracts into compliance with section 817(h) of the Code following a diversification failure, and the costs of adverse tax consequences to affected Contract holders if the Contracts cannot be brought into compliance.

7.4. Pruco agrees that if the IRS asserts in writing in connection with any governmental audit or review of Pruco (or, to Pruco’s knowledge, of any Contract Owner) that any Portfolio has failed to comply with the diversification requirements of Section 817(h) of the Code or Pruco otherwise becomes aware of any facts that could give rise to any claim against a Fund, the Distributor or the Adviser as a result of such a failure or alleged failure:

(a) Pruco shall promptly notify the Fund, the Distributor and the Adviser of such assertion or potential claim;

(b) Pruco shall consult with the Fund, the Distributor and the Adviser as to how to minimize any liability that may arise as a result of such failure or alleged failure;

(c) Pruco shall use its best efforts to minimize any liability of the Fund, the Distributor and the Adviser resulting from such failure, including, without limitation, demonstrating, pursuant to Treasury Regulations, Section 1.817-5(a)(2), to the commissioner of the IRS that such failure was inadvertent;

(d) Any written materials to be submitted by Pruco to the IRS, any Contract Owner or any other claimant in connection with any of the foregoing proceedings or contests (including, without limitation, any such materials to be submitted to the IRS pursuant to Treasury Regulations, Section 1.817-5(a)(2)) shall be provided by Pruco to the Fund, the Distributor and the Adviser (together with any supporting information or analysis) within a reasonable time after submission;

(e) Pruco shall provide the Fund, the Distributor and the Adviser with such cooperation as the Fund, the Distributor and the Adviser shall reasonably request (including, without

limitation, by permitting the Fund, the Distributor and the Adviser to review the relevant books and records of Pruco) in order to facilitate review by the Fund, the Distributor and the Adviser of any written submissions provided to it or its assessment of the validity or amount of any claim against it arising from such failure or alleged failure;

(f) Pruco shall not with respect to any claim of the IRS or any Contract Owner that would give rise to a claim against the Fund, the Distributor and the Adviser (i) compromise or settle any claim, (ii) accept any adjustment on audit, or (iii) forego any allowable administrative or judicial appeals, without the express written consent of the Fund, the Distributor and the Adviser, which shall not be unreasonably withheld; provided that, Pruco shall not be required to appeal any adverse judicial decision unless the Fund and the Adviser shall have provided an opinion of independent counsel to the effect that a reasonable basis exists for taking such appeal; and further provided that the Fund, the Distributor and the Adviser shall bear the costs and expenses, including reasonable attorney’s fees, incurred by Pruco in complying with this clause (f).

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 in writing to the Company by or on behalf of the Adviser, Distributor or Fund for use in the registration statement or prospectus for the Contracts or in the Contracts or sales literature or other promotional material (or any amendment or supplement to any of the foregoing) or otherwise for use in connection with the sale of the Contracts or Portfolio shares; or

Rule 22c-2 Agreement

AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”) is entered into as of August 1, 2018, by and between Hartford Administrative Services Company (“Fund Agent”), on behalf of the series (each a “Fund” and collectively, the “Funds”) of each of Hartford Series Fund, Inc. and Hartford HLS Series Fund II, Inc. (each a “Registrant” and collectively, the “Registrants”), and The Prudential Insurance Company of America, as administrator of certain variable life insurance separate accounts for Xxxxxxx Resolution Life and Annuity Insurance Company and Xxxxxxx Resolution Life Insurance Company (“Intermediary”). Unless otherwise indicated, capitalized terms used in this Agreement shall have the meanings ascribed to them herein.

WHEREAS, Intermediary is a “financial intermediary” as defined in Rule 22c-2 under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”); and

WHEREAS, Fund Agent and Intermediary shall be collectively referred to herein as the “Parties” and each individually as a “Party”; and

WHEREAS, this Agreement is intended in all respects to act as the written agreement of the parties contemplated by and entered into in compliance with Rule 22c-2(a)(2) under the 1940 Act; and

an account with an indirect intermediary; or; (ii) if directed by the Funds or their designee, block further purchases of Fund Shares from such indirect intermediary. In such instance, Intermediary agrees to inform the Funds whether it plans to perform (i) or (ii).
