NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of their mutual promises, each Trust, MFD, and the Company agree as follows:

ARTICLE I. SALE OF TRUST SHARES

1.1. Each Trust agrees to sell to the Company those Shares which the Accounts order (based on orders placed by Policy holders prior to the pricing time set forth in the applicable Portfolio’s prospectus, e.g., the close of regular trading on the New York Stock Exchange, Inc. (the “NYSE”) on that Business Day, as defined below) and which are available for purchase by such Accounts, executing such orders on a daily basis at the net asset value next computed after receipt by such Trust or its designee of the order for the Shares. For purposes of this Section 1.1, the Company shall be the designee of each Trust for receipt of such orders from Policy owners and receipt by such designee shall constitute receipt by each Trust; provided that such Trust receives notice of such orders by 9:00 a.m. New York time on the next following Business Day. "Business Day" shall mean any day on which the NYSE is open for trading and on which such Trust calculates its net asset value pursuant to the rules of the SEC. The Company will ensure that orders for transactions in Shares by Policy owners comply with each Portfolio’s prospectus (including statement of additional information) restrictions with respect to purchases, redemptions and exchanges. The Company will not engage in, authorize or facilitate market timing or late trading in Shares and has implemented controls designed to help identify and prevent market timing and late trading in Shares by Policy holders.

1.2. Each Trust agrees to make the Shares available indefinitely for purchase at the applicable net asset value per share by the Company and the Accounts on those days on which the Trust calculates

its net asset value pursuant to rules of the SEC and each Trust shall calculate such net asset value on each day which the NYSE is open for trading. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Board of Trustees of the relevant Trust (the "Board") may refuse to sell any Shares to the Company and the Accounts, or suspend or terminate the offering of the Shares if such action is required by law or by regulatory authorities having jurisdiction or is, in the sole discretion of the Board acting in good faith and in light of its fiduciary duties under federal and any applicable state laws, necessary in the best interest of the Shareholders of such Portfolio.

1.3. Each Trust and MFD agree that the Shares will be sold only to insurance companies that have entered into participation agreements with the relevant Trust and its affiliate (the "Participating Insurance Companies") and their separate accounts, qualified pension and retirement plans, and any other person or plan permitted to hold shares of such Trust pursuant to Treasury Regulation 1.817-5 without impairing the ability of the Company, on behalf of its separate accounts, to consider the Shares as constituting investments of the separate accounts for the purpose of satisfying the diversification requirements of Section 817(h). Each Trust and MFD will not sell such Trust shares to any insurance company or separate account unless an agreement containing provisions substantially the same as Articles II, III, VI and VII of this Agreement is in effect to govern such sales. The Company will not resell the Shares except to such Trust or its agents.

1.4. Each Trust agrees to redeem for cash or, if mutually agreed upon by the parties and to the extent permitted by applicable law, in-kind, on the Company's request, any full or fractional Shares held by the Accounts (based on orders placed by Policy owners prior to the close of regular trading on the NYSE on that Business Day), executing such requests on a daily basis at the net asset value next computed after receipt by such Trust or its designee of the request for redemption. For purposes of this Section 1.4, the Company shall be the designee of such Trust for receipt of requests for redemption from Policy owners and receipt by such designee shall constitute receipt by such Trust; provided that such Trust receives notice of such request for redemption by 10:00 a.m. New York time on the next following Business Day.

1.5. Each purchase, redemption and exchange order placed by the Company shall be placed separately for each Portfolio and shall not be netted with respect to any Portfolio. However, with respect to payment of the purchase price by the Company and of redemption proceeds by the Trusts, the Company and the relevant Trust shall net purchase and redemption orders with respect to each Portfolio and shall transmit one net payment for all of the Portfolios in accordance with Section 1.6 hereof.

1.6. In the event of net purchases, the Company shall pay for the Shares by close of business (5:00 p.m.). New York time on the next Business Day after an order to purchase the Shares is made in accordance with the provisions of Section 1.1 hereof. In the event of net redemptions, each Trust shall pay the redemption proceeds by close of business (5:00 p.m.) New York time on the next Business Day after an order to redeem the shares is made in accordance with the provisions of Section 1.4. hereof. All such payments shall be in federal funds transmitted by wire.

1.7. All purchases, redemptions, and exchanges of Shares for the Accounts shall occur via the NSCC Fund/SERV system and shall be governed by and subject to the terms of the Fund/SERV and Networking Supplement to Participation Agreement by and among the Company, each Trust, and MFD or its affiliate, dated June ___, 2010.

1.8. Issuance and transfer of the Shares will be by book entry only. Stock certificates will not be issued to the Company or the Accounts. The Shares ordered from each Trust will be recorded in an appropriate title for the Accounts or the appropriate subaccounts of the Accounts.

1.9. Each Trust shall furnish same day notice (by wire or telephone followed by written confirmation) to the Company of any dividends or capital gain distributions payable on the Shares. The Company hereby elects to receive all such dividends and distributions as are payable on a Portfolio's Shares in additional Shares of that Portfolio. Each Trust shall notify the Company of the number of Shares so issued as payment of such dividends and distributions.

1.10. Each Trust or its custodian shall make the net asset value per share for each Portfolio available to the Company on each Business Day as soon as reasonably practicable after the net asset value per share is calculated and shall use its best efforts to make such net asset value per share available by 6:30 p.m. New York time. In the event that such Trust is unable to meet the 6:30 p.m. time stated herein, it shall provide additional time for the Company to place orders for the purchase and redemption of Shares. Such additional time shall be equal to the additional time which such Trust takes to make the net asset value available to the Company. If such Trust provides materially incorrect share net asset value information, such Trust shall make an adjustment to the number of shares purchased or redeemed for the Accounts to reflect the correct net asset value per share and such Trust shall bear the cost of adjusting the error. Any material error in the calculation or reporting of net asset value per share, dividend or capital gains information shall be reported promptly upon discovery to the Company.

1.11 Each party or its designee shall maintain and preserve all records as required by law to be maintained and preserved in connection with providing the services hereunder and in making Shares available to the Policy holders. Upon the request of MFD or a Trust, and at MFD’s or a Trust’s expense, the Company shall provide copies of all the historical records the Company has relating to transactions between the relevant Portfolios and the Policy holders, written communications regarding the relevant Portfolios to or from such Policy holders’ accounts and other materials.

2.9. The Company acknowledges that, with respect to Service Class Shares of a Portfolio, it or its affiliate(s) may receive payments under a Trust’s Rule 12b-1 plan.

ARTICLE III. PROSPECTUS AND PROXY STATEMENTS; VOTING

3.1. At least annually, each Trust or its designee shall provide the Company, free of charge, with as many copies of the current prospectus or statutory prospectus and statement of additional information (describing only the Portfolios listed in Schedule A hereto) for the Shares as the Company may reasonably request for distribution to existing Policy owners whose Policies are funded by such Shares.

Each Trust or its designee shall provide the Company, at the Company's expense, with as many copies of the current prospectus for the Shares as the Company may reasonably request for distribution to prospective purchasers of Policies.

If requested by the Company in lieu thereof, a Trust or its designee shall provide such documentation (including a "camera ready" copy of the new prospectus as set in type or, at the request of the Company, as a diskette or electronic file in the form sent to the financial printer) and other assistance as is reasonably necessary in order for the parties hereto once each year (or more frequently if the prospectus for the Shares is supplemented or amended) to have the prospectus for the Policies and the prospectus for the Shares printed together in one document; the expenses of such printing to be apportioned between (a) the Company and (b) the relevant Trust(s) or its designee in proportion to the number of pages of the Policy and Shares' prospectuses, taking account of other relevant factors affecting the expense of printing, such as covers, columns, graphs and charts; such Trust or its designee to bear the cost of printing the Shares' prospectus portion of such document for distribution to owners of existing Policies funded by the Shares and the Company to bear the expenses of printing the portion of such document relating to the Accounts; provided, however, that the Company shall bear all printing expenses of such combined documents where used for distribution to prospective purchasers or to owners of existing Policies not funded by the Shares. In the event that the Company requests that a Trust or its designee provides such Trust's prospectus in a "camera ready" or electronic file format, such Trust shall be responsible for providing the prospectus in the format in which it or the Underwriter is accustomed to formatting prospectuses and shall bear the expense of providing the prospectus in such format (e.g., typesetting expenses), and the Company shall bear the expense of adjusting or changing the format to conform with any of its prospectuses.

3.2. The prospectus for the Shares shall state that the statement of additional information for the Shares is available from the relevant Trust or its designee. Each Trust or its designee, at its expense, shall print and provide such statement of additional information to the Company (or a master of such statement suitable for duplication by the Company) for distribution to any owner of a Policy funded by the Shares. Each Trust or its designee, at the Company's expense, shall print and provide such statement to the Company (or a master of such statement suitable for duplication by the Company) for distribution to a prospective purchaser who requests such statement or to an owner of a Policy not funded by the Shares.

3.3. Each Trust or its designee shall provide the Company free of charge copies, if and to the extent applicable to the Shares, of such Trust's proxy materials, reports to Shareholders and other communications to Shareholders in such quantity as the Company shall reasonably require for distribution to Policy owners.

3.4. Notwithstanding the provisions of Sections 3.1, 3.2, and 3.3 above, or of Article V below, the Company shall pay the expense of printing or providing documents to the extent such cost is considered a distribution expense. Distribution expenses would include by way of illustration, but are not limited to, the printing of the Shares' prospectus or prospectuses for distribution to prospective purchasers or to owners of existing Policies not funded by such Shares.

3.5. Each Trust hereby notifies the Company that it may be appropriate to include in the prospectus pursuant to which a Policy is offered disclosure regarding the potential risks of mixed and shared funding.

3.6. If and to the extent required by the 1940 Act or other applicable law, the Company shall:

(a) solicit voting instructions from Policy owners;

(b) vote the Shares in accordance with instructions received from Policy owners; and

(c) vote the Shares for which no instructions have been received in the same proportion as the Shares of such Portfolio for which instructions have been received from Policy owners;

so long as and to the extent that the SEC continues to interpret the 1940 Act to require pass through voting privileges for variable contract owners. The Company will in no way recommend action in connection with or oppose or interfere with the solicitation of proxies for the Shares held for such Policy owners. The Company reserves the right to vote shares held in any segregated asset account in its own right, to the extent permitted by law. Participating Insurance Companies shall be responsible for assuring that each of their separate accounts holding Shares calculates voting privileges in the manner required by the Mixed and Shared Funding Exemptive Order. Each Trust and MFD will notify the Company of any changes of interpretations or amendments to the Mixed and Shared Funding Exemptive Order.

The parties hereto agree that this Section 4.4. is neither intended to designate nor otherwise imply that MFD is an underwriter or distributor of the Policies.

4.7. Each Trust and MFD will provide the Company with as much notice as is reasonably practicable of any proxy solicitation for any Portfolio, and of any material change in such Trust's registration statement, particularly any change resulting in change to the registration statement or summary prospectus, statutory prospectus or statement of additional information for any Account. Each Trust and MFD will cooperate with the Company so as to enable the Company to solicit proxies from Policy owners or to make changes to its summary prospectus, statutory prospectus, statement of additional information or registration statement, in an orderly manner. Each Trust and MFD will make reasonable efforts to attempt to have changes affecting Policy prospectuses become effective simultaneously with the annual updates for such prospectuses.

Each party, however, shall, in accordance with the allocation of expenses specified in Articles III and V hereof, reimburse other parties for expenses initially paid by one party but allocated to another party. In addition, nothing herein shall prevent the parties hereto from otherwise agreeing to perform, and arranging for appropriate compensation for, other services relating to such Trust and/or to the Accounts.

5.3. The Company shall bear the expenses of distributing the Shares' prospectus or prospectuses in connection with new sales of the Policies and of distributing a Trust's Shareholder reports to Policy owners. The Company shall bear all expenses associated with the registration, qualification, and filing of the Policies under applicable federal securities and state insurance laws; the cost of preparing, printing and distributing the Policy prospectus and statement of additional information; and the cost of preparing, printing and distributing annual individual account statements for Policy owners as required by state insurance laws.

MFD shall not be required to provide any payment to the Company with respect to any quarterly period pursuant to a Trust’s Rule 12b-1 plan unless and until MFD has received the corresponding payment from such Trust pursuant to the Trust’s Rule 12b-1 plan. MFD shall not be required to provide any payment to the Company with respect to any quarterly period pursuant to a Trust’s Rule 12b-1 plan if (i) such Trust’s Rule 12b-1 plan is no longer in effect during such quarterly period; or (ii) regulatory changes result in the rescission of Rule 12b-1 or otherwise prohibit the making of such payments. Each Trust’s prospectus or statement of additional information may provide further details about such payments and the provisions and terms of such Trust’s Rule 12b-1 plan, and the Company

hereby agrees that neither such Trust, nor MFD has made any representations to the Company with respect to such Trust’s Rule 12b-1 plan in addition to, or conflicting with, the description set forth in such Trust’s prospectus.

In addition, if requested by MFD, the Company will provide a certification (which may take the form of a control report or set of agreed upon standards) satisfactory to MFD that certifies the performance of the services by the Company and the accuracy of information provided by the Company.

The relevant Board shall have the sole authority to determine if a material irreconcilable conflict exists, and such determination shall be binding on the Company only if approved in the form of a resolution by a majority of the relevant Board, or a majority of the disinterested trustees of the relevant Board.

The Company agrees that it will be responsible for assisting each relevant Trust Board in carrying out its responsibilities under the conditions set forth in the Trusts’ exemptive application pursuant to which the SEC has granted the Mixed and Shared Funding Exemptive Order by providing each Board, as it may reasonably request, with all information necessary for such Board to consider any issues raised and agrees that it will be responsible for promptly reporting any potential or existing conflicts of which it is aware to such Board including, but not limited to, an obligation by the Company to inform such Board whenever contract owner voting instructions are disregarded. The Company also agrees that, if a material irreconcilable conflict arises, it will at its own cost remedy such conflict up to and including (a)

withdrawing the assets allocable to some or all of the Accounts from the relevant Trust(s) or any Portfolio and reinvesting such assets in a different investment medium, including (but not limited to) another Portfolio of a Trust, or submitting to a vote of all affected contract owners whether to withdraw assets from a Trust or any Portfolio and reinvesting such assets in a different investment medium and, as appropriate, segregating the assets attributable to any appropriate group of contract owners that votes in favor of such segregation, or offering to any of the affected contract owners the option of segregating the assets attributable to their contracts or policies, and (b) establishing a new registered management investment company and segregating the assets underlying the Policies, unless a majority of Policy owners materially adversely affected by the conflict have voted to decline the offer to establish a new registered management investment company.

7.3. A majority of the disinterested trustees of the relevant Board shall determine whether any proposed action by the Company adequately remedies any material irreconcilable conflict. In the event that a Board determines that any proposed action does not adequately remedy any material irreconcilable conflict, the Company will withdraw from investment in the relevant Trust each of the Accounts designated by the disinterested trustees and terminate this Agreement within six (6) months after the relevant Board informs the Company in writing of the foregoing determination; provided, however, that such withdrawal and termination shall be limited to the extent required to remedy any such material irreconcilable conflict as determined by a majority of the disinterested trustees of the relevant Board.

7.4. If and to the extent that Rule 6e-2 and Rule 6e-3(T) are amended, or Rule 6e-3 is adopted, to provide exemptive relief from any provision of the 1940 Act or the rules promulgated thereunder with respect to mixed or shared funding (as defined in the Mixed and Shared Funding Exemptive Order) on terms and conditions materially different from those contained in the Mixed and Shared Funding Exemptive Order, then (a) the Trusts and/or the Participating Insurance Companies, as appropriate, shall take such steps as may be necessary to comply with Rule 6e-2 and 6e-3(T), as amended, and Rule 6e-3, as adopted, to the extent such rules are applicable; and (b) Sections 3.5, 3.6, 7.1, 7.2, 7.3 and 7.4 of this Agreement shall continue in effect only to the extent that terms and conditions substantially identical to such Sections are contained in such Rule(s) as so amended or adopted.

ARTICLE VIII. INDEMNIFICATION

8.1. Indemnification by the Company

The Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each Trust, MFD, any affiliates of MFD, and each of their respective directors/trustees, officers and each person, if any, who controls each Trust or MFD within the meaning of Section 15 of the 1933 Act, and any agents or employees of the foregoing (each an "Indemnified Party," or collectively, the "Indemnified Parties" for purposes of this Section 8.1) against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities (including amounts paid in settlement with the written consent of the Company) or expenses (including reasonable counsel fees) to which any Indemnified Party may become subject under any statute, 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 Shares or the Policies and:

(a) arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of any material fact contained in the registration statement, prospectus or statement of additional information for the Policies or contained in the Policies or sales literature or other promotional material for the Policies (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 statement

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 reasonable reliance upon and in conformity with information furnished to the Company or its designee by or on behalf of the relevant Trust or MFD for use in the registration statement, prospectus or statement of additional information for the Policies or in the Policies or sales literature or other promotional material (or any amendment or supplement) or otherwise for use in connection with the sale of the Policies or Shares; or

(b) arise out of or as a result of statements or representations (other than statements or representations contained in the registration statement, prospectus, statement of additional information or sales literature or other promotional material of relevant Trust not supplied by the Company or its designee, or persons under its control and on which the Company has reasonably relied) or wrongful conduct of the Company or persons under its control, with respect to the sale or distribution of the Policies or Shares; or

(c) arise out of any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the registration statement, prospectus, statement of additional information, or sales literature or other promotional literature of the relevant Trust, 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 statement or statements therein not misleading, if such statement or omission was made in reliance upon information furnished to the relevant Trust by or on behalf of the Company; or

(d) 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; or

(e) arise as a result of any failure by the Company to provide the services and furnish the materials under the terms of this Agreement;

as limited by and in accordance with the provisions of this Article VIII.

8.2. Indemnification by the Trusts

Each Trust severally agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Company, any affiliates of Company and each of their respective directors, officers and each person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of Section 15 of the 1933 Act, and any agents or employees of the foregoing (each an "Indemnified Party," or collectively, the "Indemnified Parties" for purposes of this Section 8.2) against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities (including amounts paid in settlement with the written consent of such Trust) or expenses (including reasonable counsel fees) to which any Indemnified Party may become subject under any statute, 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 Shares or the Policies and:

(a) arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of any material fact contained in the registration statement, prospectus, statement of additional information or sales literature or other promotional material of such Trust (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 statement 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 reasonable reliance upon and in conformity with information furnished to such Trust, MFS, MFD or their respective designees by or on behalf of the

Company for use in the registration statement, prospectus or statement of additional information for such Trust or in sales literature or other promotional material for such Trust (or any amendment or supplement) or otherwise for use in connection with the sale of the Policies or Shares; or

(b) arise out of or as a result of statements or representations (other than statements or representations contained in the registration statement, prospectus, statement of additional information or sales literature or other promotional material for the Policies not supplied by such Trust, MFS, MFD or any of their respective designees or persons under their respective control and on which any such entity has reasonably relied) or wrongful conduct of such Trust or persons under its control, with respect to the sale or distribution of the Policies or Shares; or

(c) arise out of any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the registration statement, prospectus, statement of additional information, or sales literature or other promotional literature of the Accounts or relating to the Policies, 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 statement or statements therein not misleading, if such statement or omission was made in reliance upon information furnished to the Company by or on behalf of such Trust, MFS or MFD; or

(d) arise out of or result from any material breach of any representation and/or warranty made by such Trust in this Agreement (including, but not limited to, a failure, whether unintentional or in good faith or otherwise, to comply with the diversification requirements specified in Article VI of this Agreement) or arise out of or result from any other material breach of this Agreement by such Trust; or

(e) arise out of or result from the materially incorrect or untimely calculation or reporting of the daily net asset value per share or dividend or capital gain distribution rate; or

(f) arise as a result of any failure by such Trust to provide the services and furnish the materials under the terms of the Agreement;

as limited by and in accordance with the provisions of this Article VIII.

8.3. In no event shall any Trust be liable under the indemnification provisions contained in this Agreement to any individual or entity, including without limitation, the Company, or any Participating Insurance Company or any Policy holder, with respect to any losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses that arise out of or result from (i) a breach of any representation, warranty, and/or covenant made by the Company hereunder; (ii) the failure by the Company or any Participating Insurance Company to maintain its segregated asset account (which invests in any Portfolio) as a legally and validly established segregated asset account under applicable state law and as a duly registered unit investment trust under the provisions of the 1940 Act (unless exempt therefrom); or (iii) the failure by the Company or any Participating Insurance Company to maintain its variable annuity and/or variable life insurance contracts (with respect to which any Portfolio serves as an underlying funding vehicle) as life insurance, endowment or annuity contracts under applicable provisions of the Code.

In no event shall the Company or its affiliates be liable under the indemnification provisions contained in this Agreement to any individual or entity, including without limitation, the Trust, MFS, MFD or their affiliates, with respect to any losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses that arise out of or result from a breach of any representation, warranty, and/or covenant made by the Trust, MFS, MFD or their affiliates hereunder.

8.4. Neither the Company nor any Trust shall be liable under the indemnification provisions contained in this Agreement with respect to any losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses to which an Indemnified Party would otherwise be subject by reason of such Indemnified Party's willful misfeasance, willful misconduct, or 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.

8.5. Promptly after receipt by an Indemnified Party under this Section 8.5 of notice of commencement of any action, such Indemnified Party will, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against the indemnifying party under this section, notify the indemnifying party of the commencement thereof; but the omission so to notify the indemnifying party will not relieve it from any liability which it may have to any Indemnified Party otherwise than under this section. In case any such action is brought against any Indemnified Party, and it notified the indemnifying party of the commencement thereof, the indemnifying party will be entitled to participate therein and, to the extent that it may wish, assume the defense thereof, with counsel satisfactory to such Indemnified Party. After notice from the indemnifying party of its intention to assume the defense of an action, the Indemnified Party shall bear the expenses of any additional counsel obtained by it, and the indemnifying party shall not be liable to such Indemnified Party under this section for any legal or other expenses subsequently incurred by such Indemnified Party in connection with the defense thereof other than reasonable costs of investigation.

8.6. Each of the parties agrees promptly to notify the other parties of the commencement of any litigation or proceeding against it or any of its respective officers, directors, trustees, employees or 1933 Act control persons in connection with the Agreement, the issuance or sale of the Policies, the operation of the Accounts, or the sale or acquisition of Shares.

8.7. A successor by law of the parties to this Agreement shall be entitled to the benefits of the indemnification contained in this Article VIII. The indemnification provisions contained in this Article VIII shall survive any termination of this Agreement.

ARTICLE IX. APPLICABLE LAW

9.1. This Agreement shall be construed and the provisions hereof interpreted under and in accordance with the laws of The Commonwealth of Massachusetts.

9.2. This Agreement shall be subject to the provisions of the 1933, 1934 and 1940 Acts, and the rules and regulations and rulings thereunder, including such exemptions from those statutes, rules and regulations as the SEC may grant and the terms hereof shall be interpreted and construed in accordance therewith.

ARTICLE X. NOTICE OF FORMAL PROCEEDINGS

Each Trust and MFD agree that each such party shall promptly notify the other parties to this Agreement, in writing, of the institution of any formal proceedings brought against such party or its designees by FINRA, the SEC, or any insurance department or any other regulatory body regarding such party's duties under this Agreement or related to the sale of the Policies, the operation of the Accounts, or the purchase of the Shares.

ARTICLE XI. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

11.1. The Company has implemented controls and procedures that are reasonably designed to ensure compliance with applicable laws and regulations, as well as the terms of this Agreement. Without limiting the foregoing, these controls and procedures are reasonably designed to ensure, and MFD or a Trust may request certifications on an annual basis with respect to, each of the following:

(a) Orders for Shares received by the Company for each Portfolio comply with the Portfolio’s restrictions with respect to purchases, transfers, redemptions and exchanges as set forth in each Portfolio’s prospectus and statement of additional information;

(b) Orders for Shares received by the Company prior to the Portfolio’s pricing time set forth in its prospectus (e.g., the close of the New York Stock Exchange – normally 4:00 p.m. Eastern time) are segregated from those received by the Company at or after such time, and are properly transmitted to the Portfolios (or their agents) for execution at the current day’s net asset value (“NAV”); and orders received by the Company at or after such time are properly transmitted to the Portfolios (or their agents) for execution at the next day’s NAV;

(d) Compliance with applicable state securities laws, including without limitation “blue sky” laws and related rules and regulations;

(e) Compliance with all applicable federal, state and foreign laws, rules and regulations regarding the detection and prevention of money laundering activity; and

(f) Effective business continuity and disaster recovery systems with respect to the services contemplated by the Agreement.

11.2 The Company shall ensure that any other party to whom the Company assigns or delegates any services hereunder is responsible for, and has controls and procedures that are reasonably designed to ensure, each of the items set forth in Section 11.1 above.

11.3 Confidential Information

Each party to this Agreement acknowledges that in order to perform the duties called for in this Agreement, it may be necessary for a party (“owner”) to disclose to the other party(ies) certain “Confidential Information.” Confidential Information means non-public, proprietary information, data or know-how of an owner, including, but not limited to, personal information of an owner’s customers. No party will use another party’s Confidential Information except as required for the performance of this Agreement. Each party will use commercially reasonable efforts in a manner fully consistent with industry standards and applicable federal, state and international laws and regulations to hold in confidence a party’s Confidential Information. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Confidential Information does not include information which is: (i) already in the possession of the receiving party or its subsidiaries and not subject to a confidentiality obligation to the providing party; (ii) independently developed by the receiving party; (iii) publicly disclosed or in the public domain through no fault of the receiving party; (iv) rightfully received by the receiving party or its subsidiaries from a third party that is not under any obligation to keep such information confidential; (v) approved for release by written

agreement with the owner; or (vi) disclosed pursuant to the requirements of law, regulation or court order.

Each party to this Agreement represents, warrants and agrees that it has adopted and implemented, and will continue to have in place and follow for the term of this Agreement and thereafter, appropriate policies and procedures designed to detect, prevent and mitigate the risk of identity theft and other breaches of privacy concerning Confidential Information. Each party agrees to take immediate and appropriate measures to respond to any breach of privacy concerning Confidential Information of the owner, and to notify the owner in writing regarding such breach in the most expedient time possible and without unreasonable delay; provided, however, that a party may postpone providing such notice as the party deems consistent with the legitimate needs of law enforcement. Each party further agrees to provide the owner with a copy of its plan to remediate any such breach and to pay for all costs associated with such remediation and with providing written notice of such breach to the applicable party.

Each party agrees to establish and maintain (i) administrative, technical and physical safeguards against the destruction, loss or alteration of Confidential Information, and (ii) appropriate security measures to protect Confidential Information, which measures are consistent with the laws and regulations of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts relating to personal information security and with all other applicable federal, state and international laws and regulations relating to personal information security.

The provisions found in this Section on Confidential Information will survive any expiration or termination of the Agreement.

ARTICLE XII. TERMINATION

12.1. This Agreement shall terminate with respect to the Accounts, or one, some, or all Portfolios:

(a) at the option of any party upon six (6) months' advance written notice to the other parties; or

(b) at the option of the Company to the extent that the Shares of Portfolios are not reasonably available to meet the requirements of the Policies or are not "appropriate funding vehicles" for the Policies, as reasonably determined by the Company. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Shares of a Portfolio would not be "appropriate funding vehicles" if, for example, such Shares did not meet the diversification or other requirements referred to in Article VI hereof; or if the Company would be permitted to disregard Policy owner voting instructions pursuant to Rule 6e-2 or Rule 6e-3(T) under the 1940 Act. Prompt notice of the election to terminate for such cause and an explanation of such cause shall be furnished to the relevant Trust(s) by the Company; or

(c) at the option of a Trust or MFD upon institution of formal proceedings against the Company by FINRA, the SEC, or any insurance department or any other regulatory body that would have a material adverse impact on the Company's duties under this Agreement or related to the sale of the Policies, the operation of the Accounts, or the purchase of the Shares; or

(d) at the option of the Company upon institution of formal proceedings against a Trust by FINRA, the SEC, or any state securities or insurance department or any other regulatory body that

would have a material adverse impact on such Trust's or MFD's duties under this Agreement or related to the sale of the Shares; or

(e) at the option of the Company, a Trust or MFD upon receipt of any necessary regulatory approvals and/or the vote of the Policy owners having an interest in the Accounts (or any subaccounts) to substitute the shares of another investment company for the corresponding Portfolio Shares in accordance with the terms of the Policies for which those Portfolio Shares had been selected to serve as the underlying investment media. The Company will give thirty (30) days’ prior written notice to the relevant Trust(s) of the Date of any proposed vote or other action taken to replace the Shares; or

(f) termination by either a Trust or MFD by written notice to the Company, if either one or both of such Trust or MFD shall determine, in their sole judgment exercised in good faith, that the Company has suffered a material adverse change in its business, operations, financial condition, or prospects since the date of this Agreement or is the subject of material adverse publicity; or

(g) termination by the Company by written notice to a Trust and MFD, if the Company shall determine, in its sole judgment exercised in good faith, that such Trust or MFD has suffered a material adverse change in this business, operations, financial condition or prospects since the date of this Agreement or is the subject of material adverse publicity; or

(h) at the option of any party to this Agreement, upon another party's material breach of any provision of this Agreement; or

(i) upon assignment of this Agreement, unless made with the written consent of the parties hereto.

(j) at the option of the Company if a Trust fails to meet the diversification requirements specified in Article VI (other than any failure caused by the Company’s actions or omissions) or the Company has a reasonable expectation that such Trust will fail to meet these diversification requirements in the future.

12.2. The notice shall specify the Portfolio or Portfolios, Policies and, if applicable, the Accounts as to which the Agreement is to be terminated.

12.3. It is understood and agreed that the right of any party hereto to terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 12.1(a) may be exercised for cause or for no cause.

12.4. Except as necessary to implement Policy owner initiated transactions, or as required by state insurance laws or regulations, the Company shall not redeem the Shares attributable to the Policies (as opposed to the Shares attributable to the Company's assets held in the Accounts), until ten (10) days after the Company shall have notified the relevant Trust of its intention to do so.

12.5. Notwithstanding any termination of this Agreement, each Trust and MFD shall, at the option of the Company, continue to make available additional shares of the Portfolios pursuant to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, for all Policies in effect on the effective date of termination of this Agreement (the "Existing Policies"), except as otherwise provided under Article VII of this Agreement. Specifically, without limitation, the owners of the Existing Policies shall be permitted to transfer or reallocate investment under the Policies, redeem investments in any Portfolio and/or invest in each Trust upon the making of additional purchase payments under the Existing Policies.

ARTICLE XIII. NOTICES
