1.1 Availability of Separate Account Divisions.
AGL represents that American General Life

reference to each Division to the extent the context requires) of
the Separate Account for investment in the shares of
corresponding investment funds of the Trust that are made
available through the Separate Account to act as underlying
investment media. The Trust may from time to time add additional
investment funds, which will become subject to this Agreement if
they are made available as investment media for the Contracts.
The investment funds of the Trust which are subject to this
Agreement are set forth in Exhibit A to the Agreement. Exhibit A
shall be amended from time to time as necessary to identify all
investment funds offered under the Agreement. AGL will not
unreasonably
