but excluding (A) a rating downgrade of one or more of Indianapolis

such month and the prior month, with the first such two-month
period commencing on the first day of the first month (the
"Commencement Date") after AmerUs Capital Management has directly
managed the convertible bond portfolio of IL Annuity without the
presence of any other investment advisor advising on or trading
any assets of such portfolio for a period of at least 60 days;
and
