the Company intends to purchase shares in the Portfolios set forth in SCHEDULE A
on behalf of each corresponding Separate Account set forth on such SCHEDULE A to

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of their mutual promises, the Company, the
Adviser and the Underwriter agree as follows:
1
ARTICLE I. Purchase and Redemption of Fund Shares.
1.1 The Underwriter agrees to sell to the Company those shares of the Portfolios
which the Company orders on behalf of any Separate Account, executing such
orders on a daily basis at the net asset value next computed after receipt and
acceptance by the Fund or its designee of such order. For purposes of this
Section, the Company shall be the designee of the Fund for receipt of such
orders from each Separate Account. Receipt by such designee shall constitute
receipt by the Fund; provided that the Fund or the Underwriter receives notice
of such order via the National Securities Clearing Corporation (the "NSCC") by
10:00 a.m. Eastern Time on the next following Business Day. The Fund will
receive all orders to purchase Portfolio shares using the NSCC's Defined
Contribution Clearance & Settlement ("DCC&S") platform. The Adviser will also
provide the Company with account positions and activity data using the NSCC's
Networking platform. The Company shall pay for Portfolio shares by the scheduled
close of federal funds transmissions on the same Business Day it places an order
to purchase Portfolio shares in accordance with this section using the NSCC's
Fund/SERV System. Payment shall be in federal funds transmitted by wire from the
Fund's designated Settling Bank to the NSCC. "BUSINESS DAY" shall any day on
which the New York Stock Exchange is open for trading and on which the Fund
calculates it net asset value pursuant to the rules of the SEC. "NETWORKING"
shall mean the NSCC's product that allows Fund's and Companies to exchange
account level information electronically. "SETTLING BANK" shall mean the entity
appointed by the Fund to perform such settlement services on behalf of the Fund
and agrees to abide by the NSCC's Rules and Procedures insofar as they relate to
the same day funds settlement.
The Company shall not purchase any shares of the Portfolios as agent for any
Separate Account, unless it delivers or causes to be delivered to such account,
at or prior to the time of such purchase, a copy of the Fund's then current
prospectus and such other documents as may be required to be delivered to the
customer by applicable law (collectively, the "Prospectus") or unless such
customer has acknowledged receipt of the Prospectus. The Company hereby
represents that it understands its obligation to deliver the Prospectus to
customers who purchase Shares pursuant to applicable law and it has taken all
necessary steps to comply with all Prospectus delivery requirements. The Company
agrees that purchases and redemptions shall be made in accordance with the
Fund's Prospectus and then current statement of additional information.
If the Company is somehow prohibited from submitting purchase and settlement
instructions to the Fund for Portfolio shares via the NSCC's DCC&S platform the
following shall apply to this Section:
The Underwriter agrees to sell the Company those shares of the Portfolios which
the Company orders on behalf of any Separate Account, executing such orders on a
daily basis at the net asset value next computed after receipt and acceptance by
the Fund or its designee of such order. For purposes of this Section, the
Company shall be the designee of the Fund for the receipt of such orders from
the Separate Account and receipt by such designee shall constitute receipt by
the Fund; provided that the Fund or the Underwriter receives notice of such
order by 10:00 a.m. Eastern Time on the next following Business Day. The Company
shall pay for Portfolio shares by the scheduled close of federal funds
transmissions on the same Business Day it places an order to purchase Portfolio
shares in accordance with this section. Payment shall be in federal funds
transmitted by wire to the Fund's designated custodian. "BUSINESS DAY" shall
mean any day on which the New York Stock Exchange is open for trading and on
which the Fund calculates it net asset value pursuant to the rules of the SEC.
2
1.2 The Underwriter agrees to make shares of the Portfolios available
indefinitely for purchase at the applicable net asset value per share by the
Company on Business Days; provided, however, that the Board of Trustees or
Directors, as applicable, of the Fund (hereinafter the "TRUSTEES/DIRECTORS") may
refuse to sell shares of any portfolio to any person, or suspend or terminate
the offering of shares of any Portfolio if such action is required by law or by
regulatory authorities having jurisdiction or is, in the sole discretion of the
Trustees/Directors, acting in good faith and in compliance with their fiduciary
duties under federal and any applicable state laws, necessary in the best
interests of the shareholders of any Portfolio.
1.3 The Underwriter agrees to redeem for cash, upon the Company's request, any
full or fractional shares of the Fund held by the Company on behalf of a
Separate Account, executing such requests on a daily basis at the net asset
value next computed after receipt and acceptance by the Fund or its designee of
the request for redemption. For purposes of this Section, the Company shall be
the designee of the Fund for receipt of requests for redemption from each
Separate Account and receipt by such designee shall constitute receipt by the
Fund; provided the Fund or the Underwriter receives notice of such request for
redemption via the NSCC by 10:00 a.m. Eastern Time on the next following
Business Day. The Fund will receive all orders to redeem Portfolio shares using
the NSCC's DCC&S platform. The Adviser will also provide the Company with
account positions and activity data using the NSCC's Networking platform.
Payment for Fund shares redeemed shall be made in accordance with this section
using the NSCC's Fund/SERV System. Payment shall be in federal funds transmitted
by the NSCC to the Separate Account's Settling Bank as designated by the
Company, on the same Business Day the Fund or the Underwriter receives notice of
the redemption order from the Company provided that the Fund or the Underwriter
receives notice by 10:00 a.m. Eastern Time on such Business Day.
If the Company is somehow prohibited from submitting redemption and settlement
instructions to the Fund for Portfolio shares via the NSCC's DCC&S platform the
following shall apply to this section:
The Underwriter agrees to redeem for cash, upon the Company's request, any full
or fractional shares of the Fund held by the Company on behalf of a Separate
Account, executing such requests on a daily basis at the net asset value next
computed after receipt and acceptance by the Fund or its designee of the request
for redemption. For purposes of this Section, the Company shall be the designee
of the Fund for receipt of requests for redemption from each Separate Account
and receipt by such designee shall constitute receipt by the Fund; provided the
Fund or the Underwriter receives notice of such request for redemption by 10:00
a.m. Eastern Time on the next following Business Day. Payment shall be in
federal funds transmitted by wire to the Separate Account as designated by the
Company, on the same Business Day the Fund or the Underwriter receives notice of
the redemption order from the Company provided that the Fund or the Underwriter
receives notice by 10:00 a.m. Eastern Time on such Business Day.
1.4 The Company will place separate orders to purchase or redeem shares of each
Portfolio.
1.5 Issuance and transfer of the Fund's shares will be by book entry only.
Share certificates will not be issued to the Company or any Separate Account.
Purchase and redemption orders for Fund shares will be recorded in an
appropriate title for each Separate Account or the appropriate subaccount of
each Separate Account.
1.6 The Underwriter shall furnish prior day and same day notice to the Company
of any income, dividends or capital gain distributions payable on the Fund's
shares. The Company hereby elects to receive all such dividends and
distributions as are payable on a Portfolio's shares in the form of
3
additional shares of that Portfolio. The Fund shall notify the Company of the
number of shares so issued as payment of such dividends and distributions no
later than one Business Day after issuance. The Company reserves the right to
revoke this election and to receive in cash all such dividends and distributions
declared after receipt of notice of revocation by the Fund.
1.7 The Underwriter shall make the net asset value per share of each Series
available to the Company on a daily basis as soon as reasonably practical after
the close of trading each Business Day, but in no event later than 6:30 p.m.
Eastern time on such Business Day.
1.8(a) If the Underwriter or the Fund provides materially incorrect share net
asset value information through no fault of the Company, the Separate Accounts
shall be entitled to an adjustment with respect to the Series shares purchased
or redeemed to reflect the correct net asset value per share.
1.8(b) The determination of the materiality of any net asset value pricing
error and its correction shall be based on the SEC's recommended guidelines
regarding these errors. Any material error in the calculation or reporting of
net asset value per share, dividend or capital gain information shall be
reported promptly to the Company upon discovery. The Underwriter and the Adviser
shall indemnify and hold harmless the Company against any amount the Company is
legally required to pay Contract Owners, participants or beneficiaries that have
selected a Portfolio as an investment option ("Contract owners"), and which
amount is due to the Fund's or its agents' material miscalculation and/or
incorrect reporting of or failure to report the daily net asset value, dividend
rate or capital gains distribution rate. The Company shall submit an invoice to
the Trust or its agents for such losses incurred as a result of the above which
shall be payable within sixty (60) days of receipt. Should a material
miscalculation by the Fund or its agents result in a gain to the Company, the
Company shall immediately reimburse the Fund, the applicable Portfolios or its
agents for any material losses incurred by the Fund, the applicable Portfolios
or its agents as a result of the incorrect calculation. Should a material
miscalculation by the Fund or its agents result in a gain to Contract owners,
the Company will consult with the Fund or its designee as to what reasonable
efforts shall be made to recover the money and repay the Fund, the applicable
Portfolio or its agents. The Company shall then make such reasonable effort, at
the expense of the Fund or its agents, to recover the money and repay the Fund,
the applicable Portfolios or its agents; but the Company shall not be obligated
to take legal action against Contract owners.
With respect to the material errors or omissions described above, this section
shall control over other indemnification provisions in this Agreement.

6.4. Indemnification Procedure
(a) Any person obligated to provide indemnification under this Article VI
("INDEMNIFYING PARTY" for the purpose of this Section 6.4) shall not be liable
under the indemnification provisions of this Article VI with respect to any
claim made against a party entitled to indemnification under this Article VI
("INDEMNIFIED PARTY" for the purpose of this Section 6.4) unless such
Indemnified Party shall have notified the Indemnifying Party 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 party shall have received notice of such
service on any designated agent), but failure to notify the Indemnifying Party
of any such claim shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party from any liability
which it may have to the Indemnified Party against whom such action is brought
otherwise than on account of the indemnification provision of this Article VI.
In case any such action is brought against the Indemnified Party, the
Indemnifying Party will be entitled to participate, at its own expense, in the
defense thereof. The Indemnifying Party also shall be entitled to assume the
defense thereof, with counsel satisfactory to the party named in the action.
After notice from the Indemnifying Party to the Indemnified Party of the
Indemnifying Party's election to assume the defense thereof, the Indemnified
Party shall bear the fees and expenses of any additional counsel retained by the
Indemnified Party, and the Indemnifying Party 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, unless:
(i) the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party shall have mutually
agreed to the retention of such counsel or
(ii) the named parties to any such proceeding (including any impleaded
parties) include both the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified
Party and representation of both parties by the same counsel would
be inappropriate due actual or potential differing interests between
them.
A successor by law of the parties to this Agreement shall be entitled to the
benefits of the indemnification contained in this Article VI. The
indemnification provisions contained in this Article VI shall survive any
termination of this Agreement.
ARTICLE VII. Applicable Law
7.1 This Agreement shall be construed and the provisions hereof interpreted
under and in accordance with the laws of the State of Connecticut.
7.2 This Agreement shall be subject to the provisions of the 1933, 1934 and

construed in accordance therewith.

the Fund, the Underwriter or the Adviser by the NASD, NASDR, the SEC, or any
state securities or insurance department or any other regulatory body, related

the judgment of the Company are reasonably likely to have a material adverse
effect on the Underwriter's, the Fund's or the Adviser's ability to perform its
obligations under this Agreement; or
(d) at the option of the Company if a Portfolio delineated in SCHEDULE A ceases
to qualify as a Regulated Investment Company under Subchapter M of the Code (a
"RIC"), or under any successor or similar provision, and the disqualification is
not cured within the period permitted for such cure, or if the Company
reasonably believes that any such Portfolio may fail to so qualify and be unable
to cure such disqualification within the period permitted for such cure; or
(e) at the option of any party to this Agreement, upon another party's material
breach of any provision of this Agreement; provided that the party not in breach
shall give the party in breach notice of the breach and the party in breach does
not cure such breach within 30 days of receipt of such notice of breach; or
(f) at the option of the Company, if the Company determines in its sole
judgment exercised in good faith, that either the Fund, the Underwriter or the
Adviser has suffered a material adverse change in its business, operations or
financial condition since the date of this Agreement or is the subject of
material adverse publicity which is likely to have a material adverse impact
upon the business and operations of the Company; or
(g) at the option of the Fund, the Underwriter or the Adviser if the Fund, the
Underwriter or the Adviser respectively, shall determine in its sole judgment
exercised in good faith, that the Company has suffered a material adverse change
in its business, operations or financial condition since the date of this
Agreement or is the subject of material adverse publicity which is likely to
have a material adverse impact upon the business and operations of the Fund or
