Exhibit 99-B.8.147 | ||
THIRD AMENDMENT | ||
to | ||
SELLING AND SERVICES AGREEMENT | ||
and | ||
FUND PARTICIPATION AGREEMENT | ||
THIS THIRD AMENDMENT to the Selling and Service Agreement and Fund | ||
Participation Agreement (“Third Amendment”) is made and entered into as of the [ | ||
day of October 2008 by and between ING Life Insurance and Annuity Company (“ING Life”), | ||
ReliaStar Life Insurance Company (“ReliaStar”), ReliaStar Life Insurance Company of New | ||
York (“ReliaStar New York”) (collectively, the “Insurer(s)”), ING Financial Advisers, LLC | ||
(“ING Financial”) (together with Insurers referred to collectively as “ING”), and Allianz Global | ||
Investors Distributors LLC, formerly known as PIMCO Advisors Distributors LLC | ||
(“Distributor”). Capitalized terms not otherwise defined herein shall have the meaning ascribed | ||
to them in the Agreement (defined below). | ||
W I T N E S S E T H | ||
WHEREAS, ING and the Distributor are parties to a Selling and Services Agreement and | ||
Fund Participation Agreement dated as of March 11, 2003 and amended as of December 31, | ||
2003 and July 1, 2005 (“Agreement”); and | ||
WHEREAS, the parties now desire that ING USA Annuity and Life Insurance Company | ||
(“ING USA”) be added as a Party to the Agreement; and | ||
WHEREAS, the parties now desire to amend further the Agreement to add additional | ||
Funds and additional shares classes of the Funds to be made available as investment options | ||
under the Agreement. | ||
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual promises set forth herein the parties | ||
agree as follows: | ||
1. | ING USA is added as a Party to the Agreement. | |
2. | Schedule A to the Agreement is hereby deleted and replaced by the “Schedule A” | |
attached hereto. | ||
3. Exhibit II to the Agreement is hereby deleted and replaced by the “Exhibit II” attached | ||
hereto. | ||
4. | To the extent not previously covered under the Agreement, Institutional Class shares, | |
Administrative Class shares, and Class D shares of the Allianz Funds and PIMCO funds are | ||
added to the coverage of the Agreement. For the purposes of the Agreement and subject to the |
provisions of this Third Amendment, “shares” shall include Institutional Class shares, |
Administrative Class shares, Class A shares, Class R shares, and Class D shares. |
5. Section 4 of the Agreement entitled Service Fees is deleted and replaced with the |
following: |
Servicing Fees |
The provision of shareholder and administrative services to Contract owners or to the |
Plans shall be the responsibility of ING Financial, Insurers or the Nominee and shall not be the |
responsibility of Distributor. The Nominee, or Insurers on behalf of their Separate Accounts, |
will be recognized as the sole shareholders of the shares purchased under this Agreement. It is |
further recognized that there will be a substantial savings in administrative expense and |
recordkeeping expenses by virtue of having one shareholder rather than multiple shareholders. |
Distributor agrees to pay the applicable Insurer a servicing fee, depending upon share class, as |
provided in Exhibit II to the Agreement. For Class D shares only, Insurers shall invoice the |
Distributor for the applicable portion of the servicing fees. For all share classes, Distributor will |
make such payments to Insurer within thirty (30) days after the end of each calendar quarter. |
Each payment will be accompanied by a statement showing the calculation of the fee payable to |
Insurer for the quarter and such other supporting data as may be reasonably requested by Insurer. |
For Class D shares only, if an invoice is not sent within six (6) months from the end of the |
quarter, the fees for such quarter shall be deemed forfeited and no longer due and owing under |
this Agreement. If required by a Plan or by applicable law, Insurer shall have the right to |
allocate to a Plan or to Participant accounts in a Plan all or a portion of such servicing fees, or to |
use servicing fees it collects from Distributor to offset other fees payable by the Plan to Insurer. |
6. Section 5 of the Agreement entitled 12b-1 Fees is deleted and replaced with the |
following: |
12b-1 Fees. |
To compensate ING Financial for its distribution of fund shares, Distributor shall make |
quarterly payments to ING Financial as provided in Exhibit II to the Agreement. For Class D |
shares only, ING Financial shall invoice the Distributor for the applicable portion of the |
servicing fees. For all share classes, Distributor will make such payments to ING Financial |
within thirty (30) days after the end of each calendar quarter. Each payment will be |
accompanied by a statement showing the calculation of the fee payable to ING Financial for the |
quarter and such other supporting data as may be reasonably requested by ING Financial. For |
Class D shares only, if an invoice is not sent within six (6) months from the end of the quarter, |
the fees for such quarter shall be deemed forfeited and no longer due and owing under this |
Agreement. If required by a Plan or by applicable law, ING Financial shall have the right to |
allocate to a Plan or to Participant accounts in a Plan all or a portion of such 12b-1 fees, or to |
use 12b-1 fees it collects from Distributor to offset other fees payable by the Plan to ING |
Financial. Payments pursuant to this Section shall only be made by Distributor from the |
applicable Fund pursuant to its 12b-1 plan. |
7. Except as modified hereby, all other terms and conditions of the Agreement shall | ||||||
remain in full force and effect. This Third Amendment shall be effective as of September 30, | ||||||
2008. | ||||||
8. This Third Amendment may be executed in counterparts, each of which shall be | ||||||
deemed to be an original, but all of which together shall constitute one and the same Third | ||||||
Amendment. | ||||||
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have executed this Third Amendment as of the date | ||||||
set forth above. | ||||||

requested by ING. The fees shall survive termination of the Agreement to the extent ING | ||||||
continues to provide services to such Plans. | ||||||
