LargeCap Fund, two newly established series of ING Equity Trust (the "Funds"),
effective December 28, 2005, upon all of the terms and conditions set forth in
the Agreement. Upon your acceptance, the Agreement will be modified to give
effect to the foregoing by adding the above-mentioned Funds to the AMENDED
