Article I. Sale of Portfolio Shares

1.1 Each Corporation agrees to make shares of the Portfolios (“Shares”) available to the Separate Accounts of the Company for investment of purchase payments of Variable Contracts allocated to the designated Separate Accounts as provided in the Portfolios’ then current registration statement, The Company agrees to purchase and redeem the Shares of the Portfolios offered by the then current registration statement of the Portfolios in accordance with the provisions of such registration statement. The Company shall not permit any person other than a Variable Contract owner (“Owner”), or such Owner’s investment adviser, registered representative or attorney-in-fact to give instructions to the Company which would require the Company to redeem or exchange Shares of the Portfolios.

1.2 Each Corporation agrees to sell to the Company those Shares of the selected Portfolios of the Corporations which the Company orders, executing such orders on a daily basis at the NAV next computed after receipt by a Portfolio or its designee of the order for the Shares of the Portfolio. For purposes of this Section 1.2, the Company shall be the designee of the Portfolios for receipt of such orders from the designated Separate Account and receipt by such designee shall constitute receipt by the Portfolios; provided, to the extent not inconsistent with regulatory requirements, that the Company receives the order by the time as of which the Portfolio’s NAV is calculated in accordance with the Portfolio’s then-current registration statement. “Business Day” shall mean any day on which the New York Stock Exchange is open for trading and on which a Portfolio calculates its NAV pursuant to the rules of the SEC. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the directors of the Corporations 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 directors of the Corporations acting in good faith and in light of their fiduciary duties under federal laws, necessary in the best interests of the shareholders of that Portfolio.

1.3 Each Corporation agrees to redeem on the Company’s request, any full or fractional Shares of the Portfolio held by the Company, executing such requests on a daily basis at the NAV next computed after receipt by the Portfolio or its designee of the request for redemption, in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement and the Portfolio’s then current registration statement. However, if one or more Portfolios has determined to suspend redemptions or settle redemption transactions for all of its shareholders on a delayed basis under unusual circumstances, such as when normal trading is not taking place on the New York Stock Exchange, an emergency as defined by the SEC exists, or as permitted by the SEC (including Section 22(e) of the 1940 Act and the rules thereunder and in accordance with the policies and procedures of the Portfolio as described in the then current registration statement), the Corporation(s) shall be permitted to delay sending redemption proceeds to the Company by the same number of days that a Corporation is delaying sending redemption proceeds to the other shareholders of the Portfolio. For purposes of this Section 1.3, the Company shall be the designee of the Portfolios for receipt of requests for redemption from the

designated Separate Account and receipt by such designee shall constitute receipt by the Portfolios provided, to the extent not inconsistent with regulatory requirements, that the Company receives the request for redemption by the time as of which the Portfolio’s NAV is calculated in accordance with the Portfolio’s then-current registration statement.

1.4 Each Corporation shall furnish notice to the Company of any income dividends or capital gain distributions payable on the Shares of any Portfolios of the Corporation as soon as reasonably practicable. The Company hereby elects to receive all such income dividends and capital gain distributions as are payable on a Portfolio’s Shares in additional Shares of the Portfolio. The Portfolios shall notify the Company or its designee of the number of Shares so issued as payment of such dividends and distributions.

1.5 Each Corporation shall make the NAV per share for the selected Portfolios available to the Company on each Business Day, via a mutually agreeable form, as soon as reasonably practicable after the NAV per share is calculated but shall use its best efforts to make such NAV available by 6:30 p.m. Eastern time. In accordance with Section 9.3 below, if a Corporation provides materially incorrect share NAV information, the Corporation may make an adjustment to the number of shares purchased or redeemed for the Separate Account to reflect the correct NAV.

1.6 Each purchase, redemption and exchange order placed by the Company shall be placed separately for each Portfolio. However, with respect to payment of the purchase price by the Company and of redemption proceeds by a Corporation, the Company and the Corporation shall net purchase and redemption orders with respect to each Portfolio and shall transmit one net payment for all of the Portfolios.

1.7 If the Company’s order requests a net purchase of Portfolio Shares, the Company shall pay for such purchase by wiring federal funds to a Portfolio or its designated custodial account by the next Business Day after the order is transmitted by the Company in accordance with the provisions of Section 1.2. If the Company’s order requests a net redemption resulting in a payment of redemption proceeds to the Company, the Portfolio shall wire the redemption proceeds to the Company by the next Business Day after the order is transmitted by the Company in accordance with the provisions of Section 1.3. However, payment may be postponed under unusual circumstances, such as when normal trading is not taking place on the New York Stock Exchange, an emergency as defined by the SEC exists, or as permitted by the SEC (including Section 22(e) of the 1940 Act and the rules thereunder and in accordance with the policies and procedures of the Portfolio as described in the then current registration statement.) Each Corporation reserves the right to redeem Portfolio shares in assets other than cash in accordance with the procedures and policies of the Corporation as described in the then current registration statement.

1.8 Each Corporation agrees that all Shares of the Portfolios of the Corporation will be sold only to insurance companies which have agreed to invest in the Portfolios to fund their Separate Accounts and/or to Plans, all in accordance with the requirements of Section 817(h) of the Internal

Revenue Code, as revised (the “Code”) and Treasury Regulation §1.817-5, CRM and affiliated advisers to the Corporations and any other person permitted to hold shares of the Portfolios pursuant to the Code and applicable Treasury regulations. Shares of the Portfolios of the Corporations will not be sold directly to the general public.

1.9 As described in Section 1.2 above, Each Corporation may refuse to sell Shares of any Portfolios to any person, or suspend or terminate the offering of the Shares of any Portfolios if such action is required by law or by regulatory authorities having jurisdiction or is, in the sole discretion of the Board of Directors of the Corporations (collectively, the “Boards”), deemed necessary, desirable or appropriate. Without limiting the foregoing, it has been determined that there is a significant risk that a Portfolio and its shareholders may be adversely affected by market timing and short-term or excessive trading activity, particularly activity used to try and take advantage of short-term swings in the market. Accordingly, each Corporation reserves the right to reject any purchase order, including those purchase orders with respect to shareholders or accounts whose trading has been or may be disruptive to a Portfolio or that may otherwise adversely affect a Portfolio. The Company agrees to adhere to the Portfolios’ policies and restrictions on market timing and short-term or excessive trading activity as provided in the Portfolios’ then current registration statement, unless, after review of the Company’s policies on limitations on trading among funds available under the Variable Contracts, the Distributor has waived the Company’s adherence to the Portfolios’ policies. The Company further agrees to use its reasonable best efforts to render assistance to, and to cooperate with, the Portfolios to achieve compliance with the Portfolios’ policies and restrictions on market timing and short-term or excessive trading activity as they may be amended from time to time, or to the extent required by applicable regulatory requirements.

1.10 Issuance and transfer of Portfolio Shares will be by book entry only. Stock certificates will not be issued to the Company or the Separate Accounts. Shares ordered from Portfolios will be recorded in appropriate book entry titles for the Separate Accounts.

1.11 In accordance with Section 9.3 below, if a Corporation provides materially incorrect share NAV information, the Corporation may make an adjustment to the number of shares purchased or redeemed for the Separate Account to reflect the correct NAV.

1.12 The parties hereto agree that the Company may purchase and redeem Portfolio Shares through the National Securities Clearing Corporation (the “NSCC”) system. The following additional terms apply to such transactions. In the case of any conflict between the language of this Section 1.12 and the other Sections of this Article I, this Section 1.12 controls. All provisions of Article I not expressly conflicting with any term in this Section 1.12 remain binding on the parties.

(i) Each party will be bound by the NSCC system rules and processing guidelines, as amended from time to time, in order to perform their respective obligations under this Agreement.

Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Portfolios (and agents) and Company each will perform any and all duties, functions, procedures and responsibilities assigned to it or otherwise established by the NSCC applicable to Fund/SERV and Networking.

(ii) Any information transmitted through the NSCC by any party to the other pursuant to this Agreement will be accurate, complete and in the form prescribed by the NSCC. Each party will adopt, implement and maintain procedures reasonably designed to ensure the accuracy of all transmissions through the NSCC and to limit the access to, and the inputting of data through, the NSCC to persons specifically authorized by such party. Each party is entitled to act on information and transmissions received through NSCC that it reasonably believes to be genuine.

Upon further request by a Portfolio or its designee, Company agrees to provide the name or other identifier of any investment professionals (if known) associated with any Contract Owner(s) account which has been identified as having violated policies established by the Portfolios for the purpose of eliminating or reducing any dilution of the value of the outstanding shares issued by the Portfolios.

(ii) In accordance with the preceding paragraph, the Company agrees to transmit the Information to the Portfolios or their designee promptly, but in any event not later than five (5) business days, after receipt of a request for Information or after the last day of a period for which the Information has been requested, unless mutually agreed upon otherwise by the parties. If requested by the Portfolios or their designee, the Company agrees to use reasonable efforts to determine promptly whether any specific person about whom it has received Information is itself a financial intermediary (“Indirect Intermediary”) and, upon further request of the Portfolios or their designee, promptly either: (i) provide or arrange to provide to the Portfolios or their designee the Information and any other information required to be provided by law, rule, or regulation for those Owners who hold accounts with an Indirect Intermediary; or (ii) restrict or prohibit the Indirect Intermediary from purchasing Shares in nominee name on behalf of other persons. The

Company agrees to inform the Portfolios or their designee whether the Company will perform (i) or (ii). For purposes of this paragraph, an “Indirect Intermediary” has the same meaning as provided in Rule 22c-2 under the 1940 Act (“Rule 22c-2”);

(iv) The Portfolios agree not to use Information received from the Company solely as a result of entering into this Agreement for marketing or any other similar purpose without the Company’s prior written consent, unless otherwise required by law, rule, or regulation. The Portfolios may, however, use the information received to ensure compliance with the Portfolios’ compliance policies and procedures established by the Corporations for the purpose of eliminating or reducing any dilution of the value of the outstanding shares issued by the Portfolios.

2.2 The Company agrees to execute instructions from the Portfolios or their designee (“Instructions”) to restrict or prohibit further purchases or exchanges of Shares by Owners that have been identified by the Portfolios or a designee as having engaged in transactions in Shares (directly or indirectly through the Separate Account) that may violate the Portfolios’ policies regarding short term or excessive trading activity. The Portfolios or their designee will include in the Instructions the TIN, ITIN, or Gil, if known, and the specific restriction(s) to be implemented. If the TIN, ITIN, or Gil, is not known, the Instructions must include an equivalent identifying number of the Owners or other agreed upon information to which the Instructions relate. In
addition, the Company agrees as follows:

(i) To implement Instructions as soon as reasonably practicable, but not later than five (5) business days after receipt of the Instructions by the Company; and

(ii) To provide confirmation to the Portfolios in a mutually agreed upon format that Instructions have been implemented. The Company agrees to provide confirmation as soon as is reasonably practicable, but not later than ten (10) business days after the Instructions have been implemented.

(iv) arise as a result of any failure by the Company to provide the services and furnish the materials under the terms of this Agreement (including a failure, whether unintentional or in good faith or otherwise, to comply with the qualification requirements specified in Section 4.5 of this Agreement); or

(v) arises out of information or instructions from the Company or its agents concerning the purchase, redemption, transfer or other transaction in Portfolio Shares; or

(vi) arise out of or result from any material breach of any representation and/or warranty made by the Company in this Agreement or arise out of or result from any other material breach of this Agreement by the Company.

(b) The Company shall not be liable under this indemnification provision with respect to any losses, claims, damages, liabilities or litigation incurred or assessed against an Indemnified Party as such may arise from such Indemnified Party’s willful misfeasance, bad faith, or gross negligence in the performance of such Indemnified Party’s duties or by reason of such Indemnified Party’s reckless disregard of obligations or duties under this Agreement.

(c) The Company shall not be liable under this indemnification provision with respect to any claim made against an Indemnified Party unless such Indemnified Party shall have notified the Company 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 Indemnified Party shall have received notice of such service on any designated agent), but failure to notify the Company of any such claim shall not relieve the Company from any liability which it may have to the Indemnified Party against whom such action is brought otherwise than on account of this indemnification provision. In case any such action is brought against an Indemnified Party, the Company shall be entitled to participate at its own expense in the defense of such action. The Company also shall be entitled to assume the defense thereof, with counsel satisfactory to the party named in the action. After notice from the Company to such party of the Company’s election to assume the defense thereof, the Indemnified Party shall bear the fees and expenses of any additional counsel retained by it, and the Company 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.

9.2 Indemnification by the Corporations, the Portfolios and the Distributor.

(a) Subject to Section 10.3 below, the Corporations and the Distributor agree to indemnify and hold harmless the Company and each of its directors, officers, employees, and agents and each person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of Section 15 of the 1933 Act (collectively, the “Indemnified Parties” for the purposes of this Section 10.2) against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities (including amounts paid in settlement with the written consent of the Corporations and the Distributor which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld) or litigation (including reasonable legal and other expenses) to which the Indemnified Parties may become subject under any statute, or regulation, at common law or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses (or actions in respect thereof) or settlements are related to the sale or acquisition of the Portfolio Shares or the Variable Contracts and:

(i) arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of any material fact contained in the registration statement, prospectuses, sales literature and advertising materials of the Portfolios (or any amendment or supplement to any of the foregoing), or arise out of or are based upon the omission or the alleged 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 to the Portfolios or the Distributor by or on behalf of the Company for use in the registration statement for the Portfolios (or any amendment or supplement) or otherwise for use in connection with the sale of the Variable Contracts or Shares; or

(ii) arise out of or as a result of statements or representations (other than statements or representations contained in the registration statement, prospectus or sales literature for the Variable Contracts not supplied by the Portfolios or the Distributor or persons under its control) or wrongful conduct of the Portfolios or the Distributor or persons under its control, with respect to the sale or distribution of the Variable Contracts or Shares; or

(iii) arise out of any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in a registration statement covering the Variable Contracts, or any amendment thereof or supplement thereto or the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading if such statement or omission or such alleged statement or omission was made in reliance upon and in conformity with information furnished to the Company for inclusion therein by or on behalf of the Portfolios or the Distributor; or

(iv) arise as a result of a failure by the Portfolios or the Distributor to provide the services and furnish the materials under the terms of this Agreement; or

(v) arise out of or result from any material breach of any representation and/or warranty made by the Portfolios or the Distributor in this Agreement or arise out of or result from any other material breach of this Agreement by the Portfolios or the Distributor.

(b) The Corporations, the Portfolios or the Distributor shall not be liable under this indemnification provision with respect to any losses, claims, damages, liabilities or litigation to which an Indemnified Party would otherwise be subject by reason of such Indemnified Party’s willful misfeasance, bad faith, or gross negligence in the performance of such Indemnified Party’s duties or by reason of such Indemnified Party’s reckless disregard of obligations and duties under this Agreement.

(c) The Corporations, the Portfolios or the Distributor, as the case may be, shall not be liable under this indemnification provision with respect to any claim made against an Indemnified Party unless such Indemnified Party shall have notified the Portfolios or the Distributor, as the case may be, 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 Indemnified Party shall have received notice of such service on any designated agent), but failure to notify the Portfolios or the Distributor of any such claim shall not relieve the Portfolios or the Distributor from any liability which it may have to the Indemnified Party against whom such action is brought otherwise than on account of this indemnification provision. In case any such action is brought against the Indemnified Parties, the Portfolios or the Distributor shall be entitled to participate at its own expense in the defense thereof. The Portfolios or the Distributor also shall be entitled to assume the defense thereof, with counsel satisfactory to the party named in the action. After notice from the Portfolios or the Distributor to such party of the Portfolios’ or the Distributor’s election to assume the defense thereof, the Indemnified Party shall bear the fees and expenses of any additional counsel retained by it, and the Portfolios or the Distributor 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.

9.3 Indemnification for Errors. In the event of any error or delay with respect to information regarding the purchase, redemption, transfer or registration of Portfolio Shares, the parties agree that each is obligated to make the Separate Accounts and/or the Portfolios, respectively, whole for any error or delay that it causes, subject in the case of pricing errors to the related Portfolio’s policies on materiality of pricing errors. In addition, each party agrees that neither will receive compensation from the other for the administrative costs of any reprocessing necessary as a result of an error or delay. Each party agrees to provide the other with prompt notice of any errors or delays of the type referred to in this Section. The Company and the Corporations agree that the Xxxxxxx Funds NAV Error Procedures shall govern.

9.4 The Company agrees to notify the Corporation and the Distributor promptly of the commencement of any litigation or proceedings against it or any of its officers or directors in connection with the issuance or sale of the Variable Contracts or the operation of the Separate Accounts.

9.5 Notice of Certain Proceedings and Other Circumstances.

(a) Each Corporation will immediately notify Company of; (i) the issuance by any court or regulatory body of any stop order, cease and desist order, or other similar order with respect to a Portfolio registration statement under the 1933 Act or Portfolio prospectus; (ii) any request by the SEC for any amendment to such Portfolio registration statement or Portfolio prospectus that may affect the offering of Shares; (iii) the initiation of any proceedings for that purpose or for any other purpose relating to the registration or offering of Shares; or (iv) any other action or circumstances that may prevent the lawful offer or sale of Shares in any state or jurisdiction, including, without limitation, any circumstances in which: (a) such Shares are not registered and, in all material respects, issued and sold in accordance with applicable state and federal law; or (b) such law precludes the use of such Shares as an underlying investment medium of the Variable Contracts issued or to be issued by Company. Each Corporation will make every reasonable effort to prevent the issuance, with respect to any Portfolio, of any such stop order, cease and desist order or similar order and, if any such order is issued, to obtain the lifting thereof at the earliest possible time.

Company will make every reasonable effort to prevent the issuance of any such stop order, cease and desist order or similar order and, if any such order is issued, to obtain the lifting thereof at the earliest possible time.
