NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of their mutual promises, the Company, the Fund and the Adviser agree as follows:

ARTICLE I. Sale of Fund Shares

1.1. Subject to Article X hereof, the Fund agrees to make available to the Company for purchase on behalf of the Account, shares of the Portfolios, such purchases to be effected at net asset value in accordance with Section 1.3 of this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) the Portfolios in existence now or that may be established in the future will be made available to the Company only as the Fund may so provide, and (ii) the Board of Trustees of the Fund (the “Board”) may suspend or terminate the offering of shares of any Portfolio or class thereof upon written notice to the Company, if such action is required by law or by regulatory authorities having jurisdiction or if, 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, suspension or termination is necessary and in the best interests of the shareholders of such Portfolio.

1.2. The Fund shall redeem, at the Company’s request, any full or fractional Portfolio shares held by the Company on behalf of the Account, such redemptions to be effected at net asset value in accordance with Section 1.3 of this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Fund may delay redemption of Fund shares of any Portfolio to the extent permitted by the 1940 Act, and any rules, regulations or orders thereunder.

1.3. Purchase and Redemption Procedures

(a) The Fund hereby appoints the Company as an agent of the Fund for the limited purpose of receiving and accepting purchase and redemption requests on behalf of the Account (but not with respect to any Fund shares that may be held in the general account of the Company) for shares of those Portfolios made available hereunder, based on allocations of amounts to the Account or subaccounts thereof under the Contracts and other transactions relating to the Contracts or the Account. Receipt and acceptance of any such request (or relevant transactional information therefore) on any day the New York Stock Exchange is open for trading and on which a Portfolio calculates its net asset value (a “Business Day”) pursuant to the rules of the SEC, by the Company as such limited agent of the Fund prior to the time that the Fund ordinarily calculates its net asset value as described from time to time in the Fund’s prospectus shall constitute receipt and acceptance by the Portfolio on that same Business Day, provided that the Fund receives notice of such request by 9:30 a.m. Eastern Time on the next following Business Day.

(b) The Company shall pay for shares of each Portfolio on the same Business Day that it notifies the Fund of a purchase request for such shares. Payment for Portfolio shares shall be made in federal funds transmitted to the Fund or other designated person by wire to be received by 3:00 p.m. Eastern Time on the Business Day the Fund is notified of the purchase request for Portfolio shares (unless the Fund determines and so advises the Company that sufficient proceeds are available from redemption of shares of other Portfolios effected pursuant to redemption requests tendered by the Company on behalf of the Account, or unless the Fund otherwise determines and so advises the Company to delay the date of payment, to the extent the Fund may do so under the 1940 Act). If federal funds are not received on time, such funds will be invested, and Portfolio shares purchased thereby will be issued, as soon as practicable and the Company shall promptly, upon the Fund’s request, reimburse the Fund for any charges, costs, fees, interest or other expenses incurred by the Fund in connection with any advances to, or borrowing or overdrafts by, the Fund, or any similar expenses incurred by the Fund, as a result of portfolio transactions effected by the Fund based upon such purchase request. Upon receipt of federal funds so wired, such funds shall cease to be the responsibility of the Company and shall become the responsibility of the Fund.

- 2 -

(c) Payment for Portfolio shares redeemed by the Account or the Company shall be made by the Fund in federal funds transmitted by wire to the Company or any other designated person by 3 p.m. Eastern Time on the same Business Day the Fund is properly notified of the redemption order of such shares (unless redemption proceeds are to be applied to the purchase of shares of other Portfolios in accordance with Section 1.3(b) of this Agreement), except that the Fund reserves the right to delay payment of redemption proceeds to the extent permitted under Section 22(e) of the 1940 Act and any rules thereunder, and in accordance with the procedures and policies of the Fund as described in the then-current prospectus.

(d) Any purchase or redemption request for Portfolio shares held or to be held in the Company’s general account shall be effected at the net asset value per share next determined after the Fund’s receipt and acceptance of such request, provided that, in the case of a purchase request, payment for Fund shares so requested is received by the Fund in federal funds prior to close of business for determination of such value, as defined from time to time in the Fund’s prospectus.

1.4. The Fund shall use its best efforts to make the net asset value per share for each Portfolio available to the Company by 6:00 p.m. Eastern Time each Business Day, and in any event, as soon as reasonably practicable after the net asset value per share for such Portfolio is calculated, and shall calculate such net asset value in accordance with the Fund’s prospectus. In the event of an error in the computation of a Portfolio’s net asset value per share (“NAV”) or any dividend or capital gain distribution (each, a “pricing error”), the Adviser or the Fund shall notify the Company as soon as possible after the discovery of the error. Such notification may be verbal, but shall be confirmed promptly in writing in accordance with Article XI of this Agreement. A pricing error shall be corrected in accordance with the Fund’s internal policies and procedures. If an adjustment is necessary to correct a material error that occurred through no fault of the Company and such adjustment has caused Contract owners to receive less than the number of Shares or redemption proceeds to which they are entitled, the number of Shares of the applicable Account will be adjusted and the amount of any underpayments will be paid by the Fund or Adviser to the Company for crediting of such amounts to the Contract owners’ accounts. Upon notification by the Adviser of any overpayment due to a material error, the Company shall promptly remit to the Fund or Adviser, as appropriate, any overpayment that has not been paid to Contract owner; however, the Adviser acknowledges that the Company does not intend to seek additional payments from any Contract owner who, because of a pricing error, may have underpaid for units of interest credited to his/her account. The costs of correcting such adjustments shall be borne by the Fund or Adviser unless the Company is at fault in which case such costs shall be borne by the Company.

1.5. The Fund shall use its best efforts to furnish notice (by wire or telephone followed by written confirmation) to the Company of any income dividends or capital gain distributions payable on any Portfolio shares by the record date, but in no event later than 7:00 p.m. Eastern Time on the ex-dividend date. The Company, on its behalf and on behalf of the Account, hereby elects to receive all such dividends and distributions as are payable on any Portfolio shares in the form of additional shares of that Portfolio. The Company reserves the right, on its behalf and on behalf of the Account, to revoke this election and to receive all such dividends and capital gain distributions in cash. The Fund shall notify the Company promptly of the number of Portfolio shares so issued as payment of such dividends and distributions.

1.6. Issuance and transfer of Fund shares shall be by book entry only. Share certificates will not be issued to the Company or the Account. Purchase and redemption orders for Fund shares shall be recorded in an appropriate ledger for the Account or the appropriate subaccount of the Account.

- 3 -

1.7. (a) The parties hereto acknowledge that the arrangement contemplated by this Agreement is not exclusive; the Fund’s shares may be sold to other insurance companies and the cash value of the Contracts may be invested in other investment companies.

(b) The Company shall not, without prior notice to the Adviser (unless otherwise required by applicable law), take any action to operate the Account as a management investment company under the 1940 Act.

(c) The Company shall not, without prior notice to the Adviser (unless otherwise required by applicable law), induce Contract owners to change or modify the Fund or change the Fund’s investment adviser.

(d) The Company shall not, without prior notice to the Fund, induce Contract owners to vote on any matter submitted for consideration by the shareholders of the Fund in a manner other than as recommended by the Board.

1.8. The parties may agree, in lieu of the procedures set forth above in this Article 1, to place and settle trades for Fund shares through a clearing corporation. In the event that such a clearing corporation is used, the parties agree to abide by the rules set forth in Exhibit I hereto.

ARTICLE III. Prospectuses and Proxy Statements; Voting

3.1. The Fund shall provide the Company with as many printed copies of the current prospectus, current Statement of Additional Information (“SAI”), supplements, proxy statements, and annual or semi-annual reports of each Portfolio (for distribution to Contract owners with value allocated to such Portfolios) as the Company may reasonably request, with expenses to be borne in accordance with Schedule B hereof.

substantially in the form provided.

3.4. So long as, and to the extent the SEC continues to interpret the 1940 Act to require pass-through voting privileges for variable contract owners, or to the extent otherwise required by law, the Company shall, at the Company’s option, follow one of the two methods described below to provide pass-through voting privileges to contract owners:

(a) Provide a list of Contract owners with value allocated to a Portfolio as of the record date to the Fund or its agent in order to permit the Fund to send solicitation material and gather voting instructions from Contract owners on behalf of the Company. The Company shall also provide such other information to the Fund as is reasonably necessary in order for the Fund to properly tabulate votes for Fund initiated proxies. In the event that the Company chooses this option, the Fund shall be responsible for properly “echo voting” shares of a Portfolio for which no voting instructions have been received.

(b) Solicit voting instructions from Contract holders itself and vote shares of the Portfolio in accordance with instructions received from Contract holders. The Company shall vote the shares of the Portfolios for which no instructions have been received in the same proportion as shares of the Portfolio for which instructions have been received.

3.6. If the Fund and the Company agree to distribute Fund summary prospectuses to Contract owners pursuant to Rule 498 of the 1933 Act, as set forth in Schedule C of this Agreement, then each party to the Agreement represents and warrants that it complies with the requirements of Rule 498 and applicable SEC guidance regarding the Rule in connection therewith, and that it maintains policies and procedures reasonably designed to ensure that it can meet its obligations in connection with Fund summary prospectuses. The parties agree to comply with the terms included in the attached Schedule C as of the effective date of this Agreement.

Materials not approved or disapproved within five (5) Business Days shall be deemed approved.

4.2. The Company shall not give any information or make any representations or statements on behalf of the Fund or concerning the Fund or the Adviser in connection with the sale of the Contracts other than the information or representations contained in the registration statement or prospectus or SAI for the Fund shares, as such registration statement and prospectus or SAI may be amended or supplemented from time to time, or in reports or proxy statements for the Fund, or in sales literature or other promotional material approved by the Fund or its designee, except with the permission of the Fund or its designee.

4.5. Upon request, the Fund will provide to the Company at least one complete copy of all registration statements, prospectuses, SAIs, reports, proxy statements, sales literature and other promotional materials, applications for exemptions, requests for no-action letters, and all amendments to any of the above, that relate to the Portfolios or their shares, after the filing of such document(s) with the SEC or other regulatory authorities.

ARTICLE V. Fees and Expenses

5.1. The Fund shall pay no fee or other compensation to the Company under this Agreement, except that if the Fund or any Portfolio adopts and implements a plan pursuant to Rule 12b-1 to finance distribution expenses, then the Fund may make payments to the Company or to the underwriter for the Contracts if and in amounts agreed to by the Fund in writing.

5.2. The Fund shall bear expenses in accordance with Schedule B hereof.

ARTICLE VI. Qualification

6.1. The Fund will invest its assets in such a manner as to ensure that the Contracts will be treated as annuity or life insurance contracts, whichever is appropriate, under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (“Code”) and the regulations issued thereunder (or any successor provisions). Without limiting the scope of the foregoing, each Portfolio represents and warrants that it has complied and will continue to comply with Section 817(h) of the Code and Treasury Regulation §1.817-5, and any Treasury interpretations thereof, relating to the diversification requirements for variable annuity, endowment, or life insurance contracts, and any amendments or other modifications or successor provisions to such Section or Regulations. In the event of a breach of this Article VI by the Fund, it will take all reasonable steps (a) to notify the Company of such breach and (b) to adequately diversify the Fund so as to achieve compliance within the grace period afforded by Regulation 1.817-5.

6.2. The Fund represents and warrants that it is qualified as a regulated investment company under Subchapter M of the Code and that it will maintain such qualification (under Subchapter M or any successor or similar provisions) and that it will notify the Company immediately upon having a reasonable basis for believing that it has ceased to so qualify or that it might not so qualify in the future.

6.3. The Company represents that the Contracts are currently, and at the time of issuance shall be, treated as life insurance or annuity insurance contracts, under applicable provisions of the Code, and that it will maintain such treatment, and that it will notify the Fund immediately upon having a reasonable basis for believing the Contracts have ceased to be so treated or that they might not be so treated in the future. The Company agrees that any prospectus offering a contract that is a “modified endowment contract” as that term is defined in Section 7702A of the Code (or any successor or similar provision), shall identify such contract as a modified endowment contract.

ARTICLE VII. Potential Conflicts

7.1. The Fund agrees that the Board, constituted with a majority of disinterested trustees, will monitor each Portfolio of the Fund for the existence of any material irreconcilable conflict between the interests of the variable annuity contract owners and the variable life insurance policy owners of the Company and/or affiliated companies (“contract owners”) investing in the Fund. A material irreconcilable conflict may arise for a variety of reasons, including: (a) an action by any state insurance regulatory authority; (b) a change in applicable federal or state insurance, tax, or securities laws or regulations, or a public ruling, private letter ruling, no-action or interpretive letter, or any similar action by insurance, tax or securities regulatory authorities; (c) an administrative or judicial decision in any relevant proceeding; (d) the manner in which the investments of any Portfolio are being managed; (e) a difference in voting instructions given by variable annuity contract and variable life insurance contract owners or by contract owners of different Participating Insurance Companies; or (f) a decision by a Participating Insurance Company to disregard the voting instructions of contract owners. The 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 Board, or a majority of the disinterested trustees of the Board. The Board will give prompt notice of any such determination to the Company.

- 8 -

7.2. The Company agrees that it will be responsible for assisting the Board in carrying out its responsibilities under the conditions set forth in the Fund’s exemptive application pursuant to which the SEC has granted the Mixed and Shared Funding Exemptive Order by providing the Board, as it may reasonably request, with all information necessary for the 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 the Board including, but not limited to, an obligation by the Company to inform the 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 Fund or any Portfolio and reinvesting such assets in a different investment medium, including (but not limited to) another Portfolio of the Fund, or submitting to a vote of all affected contract owners whether to withdraw assets from the Fund 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 (e.g., annuity contract owners, life insurance owners or variable contract owners of one or more Participating Insurance Companies) 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 Contracts, unless a majority of Contract 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 Board shall determine whether any proposed action by the Company adequately remedies any material irreconcilable conflict. In the event that the Board determines that any proposed action does not adequately remedy any material irreconcilable conflict, the Company will withdraw from investment in the Fund each of the Accounts designated by the disinterested trustees and terminate this Agreement within six (6) months after the 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 Board.

7.4. If a material irreconcilable conflict arises because of a decision by the Company to disregard Contract owner voting instructions and that decision represents a minority position or would preclude a majority vote, the Company may be required, at the Fund’s election, to withdraw the Account’s investment in the Fund and terminate this Agreement; provided, however, that such withdrawal and termination shall be limited to the extent required by the foregoing material irreconcilable conflict as determined by a majority of the Fund’s independent trustees. Any such withdrawal and termination must take place within six (6) months after the Fund gives written notice that this provision is being implemented, and until the end of that six-month period the Fund shall continue to accept and implement orders by the Company for the purchase and redemption of shares of the Fund.

7.5. If material irreconcilable conflict arises because of particular state insurance regulator’s decision applicable to the Company conflicts with the majority of other state regulators, then the Company will withdraw the Account’s investment in the Fund and terminate this Agreement within six (6) months after the Fund’s Board informs the Company in writing that it has determined that such decision has created a material irreconcilable conflict; provided, however, that such withdrawal and termination shall be limited to the extent required by the foregoing material irreconcilable conflict as determined by a majority of the disinterested members of the Fund’s Board. Until the end of the foregoing six (6) month period, the Fund shall continue to accept and implement orders by the Company for the purchase and redemption of shares of the Fund.

- 9 -

7.6. For purposes of Sections 7.3 through 7.6 of this Agreement, a majority of the disinterested members of the Board shall determine whether any proposed action adequately remedies any material irreconcilable conflict, but in no event will the Fund be required to establish a new funding medium for the Contracts. The Company shall not be required by Section 7.2 to establish a new funding medium for the contracts if an offer to do so has been declined by vote of a majority of Contract owners affected by the material irreconcilable conflict. In the event that the Board determines that any proposed action does not adequately remedy any material irreconcilable conflict, then the Company will withdraw the Account’s investment in the Fund and terminate this Agreement within six (6) months after the Board informs the Company in writing of the foregoing determination; provided, however, that such withdrawal and termination shall be limited to the extent required by any such material irreconcilable conflict as determined by a majority of the independent trustees.

7.7. 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 Fund 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 3.4, 3.7, 7.1, 7.2, 7.3 and 7.7 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.

The Fund further represents and warrants that it has appropriate policies and procedures in place to ensure that such web site continuously complies with Rule 498.

The Fund shall immediately notify the Company of any unexpected material interruptions in availability of this web page.

The Fund and the Adviser represent and warrant that they will be responsible for compliance with the provisions of Rule 498(f)(i) involving Contract owner requests for additional Fund documents made directly to the Fund or the Adviser, or one of their affiliates.

Exhibit I

Procedures for Pricing and Order/Settlement Through National

Securities Clearing Corporation’s Mutual Fund Profile System and

Mutual Fund Settlement, Entry and Registration Verification System

1.	As provided in Section 1.8 of the Participation Agreement, the parties hereby agree to provide pricing information, execute orders and wire payments for purchases and redemptions of Portfolio shares through National Securities Clearing Corporation (“NSCC”) and its subsidiary systems as follows:

(a)

The Fund (or its distributor) will furnish to Company or its affiliate through NSCC’s Mutual Fund Profile System (“MFPS”) (1) the most current net asset value information for each Portfolio, and (2) in the case of fixed income funds that declare daily dividends, the daily accrual or the interest rate factor. All such information shall be furnished to Company or its affiliate by 6:30 p.m. Eastern Time on each business day that the Fund is open for business (each a “Business Day”) or at such other time as that information becomes available.

(b)

Upon receipt of Portfolio purchase, exchange and redemption instructions for acceptance as of the time at which a Portfolio’s net asset value is calculated as specified in such Portfolio’s prospectus (“Close of Trading”) on each Business Day (“Instructions”), and upon its determination that there are good funds with respect to Instructions involving the purchase of Shares, Company or its affiliate will calculate the net purchase or redemption order for each Portfolio. Orders for net purchases or net redemptions derived from Instructions received by Company or its affiliate prior to the Close of Trading on any given Business Day will be sent to the Defined Contribution Interface of NSCC’s Mutual Fund Settlement, Entry and Registration Verification System (“Fund/SERV”) by 6:00 a.m. Eastern Time on the next Business Day. Subject to Company’s or its affiliate’s compliance with the foregoing, Company or its affiliate will be considered the agent of the Portfolios, and the Business Day on which Instructions are received by Company or its affiliate in proper form prior to the Close of Trading will be the date as of which shares of the Portfolios are deemed purchased, exchanged or redeemed pursuant to such Instructions. Instructions received in proper form by Company or its affiliate after the Close of Trading on any given Business Day will be treated as if received on the next following Business Day. Dividends and capital gains distributions will be automatically reinvested at net asset value in accordance with the Portfolio’s then current prospectuses.

(c)

Company or its affiliate will wire payment for net purchase orders by the Portfolio’s NSCC Firm Number, in immediately available funds, to an NSCC settling bank account designated by Company or its affiliate no later than 3:00 p.m. Eastern time on the same Business Day such purchase orders are communicated to NSCC. For purchases of shares of daily dividend accrual funds, those shares will not begin to accrue dividends until the day after the shares have been cleared.

(d)

NSCC will wire payment for net redemption orders by Portfolio, in immediately available funds, to an NSCC settling bank account designated by Company or its affiliate, by 3:00 p.m. Eastern Time on the Business Day such redemption orders are communicated to NSCC, except as provided in a Portfolio’s prospectus and statement of additional information.

- 5 -

(e)

With respect to (c) or (d) above, if the Fund (or its distributor) does not send a confirmation of Company’s or its affiliate’s purchase or redemption order to NSCC by the applicable deadline to be included in that Business Day’s payment cycle, payment for such purchases or redemptions will be made the following Business Day.

(f)

If on any day Company or its affiliate, or the Fund (or its distributor) is unable to meet the NSCC deadline for the transmission of purchase or redemption orders, it may at its option transmit such orders and make such payments for purchases and redemptions directly to the Fund (or its distributor) or Company or its affiliate, as applicable, as is otherwise provided in the Agreement.

(g)

These procedures are subject to any additional terms in each Portfolio’s prospectus and the requirements of applicable law. The Portfolios reserve the right, at their discretion and without notice, to suspend the sale of shares or withdraw the sale of shares of any Portfolio.

Company or its affiliate, the Fund (or its distributor) and clearing agents (if applicable) are each required to have entered into membership agreements with NSCC and met all requirements to participate in the MFPS and Fund/SERV systems before these procedures may be utilized. Each party will be bound by the terms of their membership agreement with NSCC and will perform any and all duties, functions, procedures and responsibilities assigned to it and as otherwise established by NSCC applicable to the MFPS and Fund/SERV system and the Networking Matrix Level utilized.

3.	Except as modified hereby, all other terms and conditions of the Agreement shall remain in full force and effect. Unless otherwise indicated herein, the terms defined in the Agreement shall have the same meaning as in this Exhibit.
