THIS AGREEMENT, made and entered into as of the 1st day of March, 2002 (“Agreement”), by and among Nationwide Life Insurance Company, an Ohio stock life insurance company (the “Insurer”) (on behalf of itself and its “Separate Account,” defined below); Nationwide Investment Services Corporation, an Oklahoma corporation (“Contracts Distributor”), the principal underwriter with respect to the Contracts referred to below; Alliance Capital Management L.P., a Delaware limited partnership (“Adviser”), the investment adviser of the Fund referred to below; and AllianceBernstein Investment Research and Management, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Distributor”), the Fund’s principal underwriter (collectively, the “Parties”),

WITNESSETH THAT:

WHEREAS Insurer, the Distributor, and AllianceBernstein Variable Products Series Fund, Inc. (the “Fund”) desire that Class A shares (“shares”) of the Fund’s AllianceBernstein Premier Growth Portfolio, AllianceBernstein Growth and Income Portfolio, AllianceBernstein Small Cap Value Portfolio, and AllianceBernstein International Value Portfolio (the “Portfolios”; reference herein to the “Fund” includes reference to each Portfolio to the extent the context requires) be made available by Distributor to serve as underlying investment media for those combination fixed and variable annuity contracts of Insurer that are the subject of Insurer’s Forms N-4, N-6 or S-6 registration statement filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), with File Numbers as set forth on Exhibit A (the “Contracts”), or are exempt from such registration, to be offered through Contracts Distributor and other registered broker-dealer firms as agreed to by Insurer and Contracts Distributor; and

WHEREAS the Contracts provide for the allocation of net amounts received by Insurer to separate series (the “Divisions”; reference herein to the “Separate Account” includes reference to each Division to the extent the context requires) of the Separate Account for investment in the shares of corresponding Portfolios of the Fund that are made available through the Separate Account to act as underlying investment media,

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual benefits and promises contained herein, the Fund and Distributor will make shares of the Portfolios available to Insurer for this purpose at net asset value and with no sales charges, all subject to the following provisions:

Section 1. Additional Portfolios

The Fund has and may, from time to time, add additional Portfolios, which will become subject to this Agreement, if, upon the written consent of each of the Parties hereto, they are made available as investment media for the Contracts.

Section 2. Processing Transactions

2.1 Timely Pricing and Orders.

Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, Insurer shall be appointed to, and agrees to act, as a limited agent of Fund for the sole purpose of receiving instructions from authorized parties as defined by the Contracts for the purchase and redemption of Fund shares prior to the close of regular trading each Business Day. A "Business Day” shall mean any day on which the New York Stock Exchange is open for trading and on which the Fund calculates its net asset value as set forth in the Fund’s most recent prospectus and Statement of Additional Information. Except as particularly stated in this paragraph, Insurer shall have no authority to act on behalf of Fund or to incur any cost or liability on its behalf.

Until such time as Fund and Insurer are able to utilize the National Securities Clearing Corporation ("NSCC") Defined Contribution Clearing and Settlement ("DCC&S") Fund/SERV system; Fund will use its best efforts to provide to Insurer or its designated agent closing net asset value, change in net asset value, dividend or daily accrual rate information and capital gain information by 7:00 p.m. Eastern Time each Business Day. Insurer or its agent shall use this data to calculate unit values. Unit values shall be used to process the same Business Day’s contract transactions. Orders derived from, and in amounts equal to, instructions received by Insurer prior to the Close of Trading on the New York Stock Exchange on any Business Day ("Day 1") shall be transmitted without modification (except for netting or aggregating such orders) to Fund by 9:00 A.M. Eastern Time on the next Business Day. Such trades will be effected at the net asset value of each Fund's shares calculated as of the Close of Trading on Day 1. Fund will not accept any order made on a conditional basis or subject to any delay or contingency. Insurer shall only place purchase orders for shares of Funds on behalf of its customers whose addresses recorded on Insurer’s books are in a state or other jurisdiction in which the Funds are registered or qualified for sale, or are exempt from registration or qualification as confirmed in writing by Fund.

Until such time as Fund and Insurer are able to utilize the DCC&S Fund/SERV system, each party shall have the ability to verify trade information via the internet prior to 12:00 pm on the day of trade receipt. Each party shall notify the other of any errors, omissions or delay or unavailability as promptly as possible.

a)	For those purchase orders not transmitted via the DCC&S Fund/SERV system, Insurer shall initiate payment to Fund or its designated agent in federal funds on the Business Day following the day on which the instructions are treated as having been received by Fund pursuant to this Agreement.

b)	For those redemption orders not transmitted via the DCC&S Fund/SERV system, Fund or its designated agent shall initiate payment in federal funds on the Business Day following the day on which the instructions are treated as having been received by Fund pursuant to this Agreement.

At such time as Fund and Insurer are able to transmit information via the NSCC's DCC&S Fund/SERV System:

Orders derived from, and in amounts equal to, instructions received by Insurer prior to the Close of Trading on Day 1 shall be transmitted without modification (except for netting and aggregation of such orders) via the NSCC's DCC&S Fund/SERV system to Fund no later than 5:00 A.M. Eastern Time on the Next Business Day. Such trades will be effected at the net asset value of each Fund's shares calculated as of the Close of Trading on Day 1.

Fund and Insurer shall mutually agree there may be instances when orders shall be transmitted to Fund via facsimile no later than 9:00 A.M. rather than through the DCC&S Fund/SERV system. In such instances, such orders shall be transmitted to Fund via facsimile no later than 9:00 A.M. Eastern Time on the next Business Day.

c)	With respect to purchase and redemption orders received by Fund on any Business Day for any Fund, within the time limits set forth in this Agreement, settlement shall occur consistent with the requirements of DCC&S Fund/SERV system.

At such time as Fund and Insurer are able to transmit information via the DCC&S Fund/SERV system; Fund or its designated agent shall send to Insurer, via the DCC&S Fund/SERV system, verification of net purchase or redemption orders or notification of the rejection of such orders ("Confirmations ") on each Business Day for which Insurer has transmitted such orders. Such confirmations shall include the total number of shares of each Fund held by Insurer following such net purchase or redemption. Fund, or its designated agent, shall submit in a timely manner, such confirmations to the DCC&S Fund/SERV system in order for Insurer to receive such confirmations no later than 11:00 A.M. Eastern Time the next Business Day.

Fund or its designated agent will transmit to Insurer via DCC&S NETWORKING system those Networking activity files reflecting account activity. Such activity files shall include total number of shares of each Fund held by Insurer following such net purchase or redemption. The Fund or its designated agent shall submit in a timely manner such activity files to the DCC&S Fund/SERV system in order for Insurer to receive such activity files no later than the next Business Day

In addition, the Fund or its affiliate will send Insurer a statement of account each quarter which shall confirm all transactions made during that particular quarter in the account.

2.2 Timely Payments.

Insurer will transmit orders for purchases and redemptions of Fund shares to Distributor, and will wire payment for net purchases to a custodial account designated by the Fund on the day the order for Fund shares is placed, to the extent practicable. Payment for net redemptions will be wired by the Fund to an account designated by Insurer on the same day as the order is placed, to the extent practicable, and in any event be made within six calendar days after the date the order is placed in order to enable Insurer to pay redemption proceeds within the time specified in Section 22(e) of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”).

2.3 Applicable Price.

The Parties agree that Portfolio share purchase and redemption orders resulting from Contract owner purchase payments, surrenders, partial withdrawals, routine withdrawals of charges, or other transactions under Contracts will be executed at the net asset values as determined as of the close of regular trading on the New York Stock Exchange on the Business Day that Insurer receives such orders and processes such transactions, which, Insurer agrees shall occur not earlier than the Business Day prior to Distributor’s receipt of the corresponding orders for purchases and redemptions of Portfolio shares. For the purposes of this section, Insurer shall be deemed to be the agent of the Fund for receipt of such orders from holders or applicants of contracts, and receipt by Insurer shall constitute receipt by the Fund. All other purchases and redemptions of Portfolio shares by Insurer, will be effected at the net asset values next computed after receipt by Distributor of the order therefor, and such orders will be irrevocable. Insurer hereby elects to reinvest all dividends and capital gains distributions in additional shares of the corresponding Portfolio at the record-date net asset values until Insurer otherwise notifies the Fund in writing, it being agreed by the Parties that the record date and the payment date with respect to any dividend or distribution will be the same Business Day.

Section 5. Mixed and Shared Funding

5.1 General.

The Fund has obtained an order exempting it from certain provisions of the 1940 Act and rules thereunder so that the Fund is available for investment by certain other entities, including, without limitation, separate accounts funding variable life insurance policies and separate accounts of insurance companies unaffiliated with Insurer (“Mixed and Shared Funding Order”). The Parties recognize that the SEC has imposed terms and conditions for such orders that are substantially identical to many of the provisions of this Section 5.

5.2 Disinterested Directors.

The Fund agrees that its Board of Directors shall at all times consist of directors a majority of whom (the “Disinterested Directors”) are not interested persons of Adviser or Distributor within the meaning of Section 2(a)(19) of the 1940 Act.

5.3 Monitoring for Material Irreconcilable Conflicts.

The Fund agrees that its Board of Directors will monitor for the existence of any material irreconcilable conflict between the interests of the participants in all separate accounts of life insurance companies utilizing the Fund, including the Separate Account. Insurer agrees to inform the Board of Directors of the Fund of the existence of or any potential for any such material irreconcilable conflict of which it is aware. The concept of a “material irreconcilable conflict” is not defined by the 1940 Act or the rules thereunder, but the Parties recognize that such a conflict may arise for a variety of reasons, including, without limitation:

(a) an action by any state insurance or other 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 interpretative letter, or any similar action by insurance, tax or securities regulatory authorities;

(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 participants or by participants of different life insurance companies utilizing the Fund; or

(f) a decision by a life insurance company utilizing the Fund to disregard the voting instructions of participants.

Insurer will assist the Board of Directors in carrying out its responsibilities by providing the Board of Directors with all information reasonably necessary for the Board of Directors to consider any issue raised, including information as to a decision by Insurer to disregard voting instructions of Participants.

5.4 Conflict Remedies.

(a) It is agreed that if it is determined by a majority of the members of the Board of Directors or a majority of the Disinterested Directors that a material irreconcilable conflict exists, Insurer and the other life insurance companies utilizing the Fund will, at their own expense and to the extent reasonably practicable (as determined by a majority of the Disinterested Directors), take whatever steps are necessary to remedy or eliminate the material irreconcilable conflict, which steps may include, but are not limited to:

(i)

withdrawing the assets allocable to some or all of the separate accounts from the Fund or any Portfolio and reinvesting such assets in a different investment medium, including another Portfolio of the Fund, or submitting the question whether such segregation should be implemented to a vote of all affected participants and, as appropriate, segregating the assets of any particular group (e.g., annuity contract owners or participants, life insurance contract owners or all contract owners and participants of one or more life insurance companies utilizing the Fund) that votes in favor of such segregation, or offering to the affected contract owners or participants the option of making such a change; and

(ii)

establishing a new registered investment company of the type defined as a “Management Company” in Section 4(3) of the 1940 Act or a new separate account that is operated as a Management Company.

(b) If the material irreconcilable conflict arises because of Insurer’s decision to disregard Participant voting instructions and that decision represents a minority position or would preclude a majority vote, Insurer may be required, at the Fund’s election, to withdraw the Separate Account’s investment in the Fund. No charge or penalty will be imposed as a result of such withdrawal. Any such withdrawal must take place within six months after the Fund gives notice to Insurer that this provision is being implemented, and until such withdrawal Distributor and the Fund shall continue to accept and implement orders by Insurer for the purchase and redemption of shares of the Fund.

(c) If a material irreconcilable conflict arises because a particular state insurance regulator’s decision applicable to Insurer conflicts with the majority of other state regulators, then Insurer will withdraw the Separate Account’s investment in the Fund within six months after the Fund’s Board of Directors informs Insurer that it has determined that such decision has created a material irreconcilable conflict, and until such withdrawal Distributor and Fund shall continue to accept and implement orders by Insurer for the purchase and redemption of shares of the Fund.

(d) Insurer agrees that any remedial action taken by it in resolving any material irreconcilable conflict will be carried out at its expense and with a view only to the interests of Participants.

(e) For purposes hereof, a majority of the Disinterested Directors will determine whether or not any proposed action adequately remedies any material irreconcilable conflict. In no event, however, will the Fund or Distributor be required to establish a new funding medium for any Contracts. Insurer will not be required by the terms hereof to establish a new funding medium for any Contracts if an offer to do so has been declined by vote of a majority of Participants materially adversely affected by the material irreconcilable conflict.

5.5 Notice to Insurer.

The Fund will promptly make known in writing to Insurer the Board of Directors’ determination of the existence of a material irreconcilable conflict, a description of the facts that give rise to such conflict and the implications of such conflict.

5.6 Information Requested by Board of Directors.

Insurer and the Fund will at least annually submit to the Board of Directors of the Fund such reports, materials or data as the Board of Directors may reasonably request so that the Board of Directors may fully carry out the obligations imposed upon it by the provisions hereof, and said reports, materials and data will be submitted at any reasonable time deemed appropriate by the Board of Directors. All reports received by the Board of Directors of potential or existing conflicts, and all Board of Directors actions with regard to determining the existence of a conflict, notifying life insurance companies utilizing the Fund of a conflict, and determining whether any proposed action adequately remedies a conflict, will be properly recorded in the minutes of the Board of Directors or other appropriate records, and such minutes or other records will be made available to the SEC upon request.

5.7 Compliance with SEC Rules.

If, at any time during which the Fund is serving an investment medium for variable life insurance policies, 1940 Act Rules 6e-3(T) or, if applicable, 6e-2 are amended or Rule 6e-3 is adopted to provide exemptive relief with respect to mixed and shared funding, the Parties agree that they will comply with the terms and conditions thereof and that the terms of this Section 5 shall be deemed modified if and only to the extent required in order also to comply with the terms and conditions of such exemptive relief that is afforded by any of said rules that are applicable.

Subject to the cost allocation procedures set forth in Section 3 hereof, Insurer will distribute all proxy material furnished by the Fund to Participants and will vote Fund shares in accordance with instructions received from Participants. Insurer will vote Fund shares that are (a) not attributable to Participants or (b) attributable to Participants, but for which no instructions have been received, in the same proportion as Fund shares for which said instructions have been received from Participants. Insurer agrees that it will disregard Participant voting instructions only to the extent it would be permitted to do so pursuant to Rule 6e-3 (T)(b)(15)(iii) under the 1940 Act if the Contracts were variable life insurance policies subject to that rule. Other participating life insurance companies utilizing the Fund will be responsible for calculating voting privileges in a manner consistent with that of Insurer, as prescribed by this Section 10.

Section 11. Foreign Tax Credits

The Adviser agrees to consult in advance with Insurer concerning any decision to elect or not to elect pursuant to Section 853 of the Code to pass through the benefit of any foreign tax credits to the Fund’s shareholders.

Section 12. Indemnification

12.1 Of Fund, Distributor and Adviser by Insurer.

(a) Except to the extent provided in Sections 12.1(b) and 12.1(c), below, Insurer agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Fund, Distributor and Adviser, each of their directors and officers, and each person, if any, who controls the Fund, Distributor or Adviser within the meaning of Section 15 of the 1933 Act (collectively, the “Indemnified Parties” for purposes of this Section 12. 1) against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities (including amounts paid in settlement with the written consent of Insurer) or actions in respect thereof (including, to the extent reasonable, legal and other expenses), to which the Indemnified Parties may become subject under any statute, regulation, at common law or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or actions are related to the sale, acquisition, or holding of the Fund’s shares and:

(i)

arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of any material fact contained in the Separate Account’s 1933 Act registration statement or other offering document, the Separate Account Prospectus, the Contracts or, to the extent prepared by Insurer or Contracts Distributor, sales literature or advertising for the Contracts (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 Insurer or Contracts Distributor by or on behalf of the Fund, Distributor or Adviser for use in the Separate Account’s 1933 Act registration statement or other offering document, the Separate Account Prospectus, the Contracts, or sales literature or advertising (or any amendment or supplement to any of the foregoing); or

(ii)

arise out of or as a result of any other statements or representations (other than statements or representations contained in the Fund’s 1933 Act registration statement, Fund Prospectus, sales literature or advertising of the Fund, or any amendment or supplement to any of the foregoing, not supplied for use therein by or on behalf of Insurer or Contracts Distributor) or the negligent, illegal or fraudulent conduct of Insurer or Contracts Distributor or persons under their control (including, without limitation, their employees and “Associated Persons,” as that term is defined in paragraph (m) of Article I of the NASD’s By-Laws), in connection with the sale or distribution of the Contracts or Fund shares; or

(iii)

arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of any material fact contained in the Fund’s 1933 Act registration statement, Fund Prospectus, sales literature or advertising of the Fund, or any amendment or supplement to any of the foregoing, 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 a statement or omission was made in reliance upon and in conformity with information furnished to the Fund, Adviser or Distributor by or on behalf of Insurer or Contracts Distributor for use in the Fund’s 1933 Act registration statement, Fund Prospectus, sales literature or advertising of the Fund, or any amendment or supplement to any of the foregoing; or

(iv)

arise as a result of any failure by Insurer or Contracts Distributor to perform the obligations, provide the services and furnish the materials required of them under the terms of this Agreement.

(b) Insurer shall not be liable under this Section 12.1 with respect to any losses, claims, damages, liabilities or actions to which an Indemnified Party would otherwise be subject by reason of willful misfeasance, bad faith, or gross negligence in the performance by that Indemnified Party of its duties or by reason of that Indemnified Party’s reckless disregard of obligations or duties under this Agreement or to Distributor or to the Fund.

(c) Insurer shall not be liable under this Section 12.1 with respect to any action against an Indemnified Party unless the Fund, Distributor or Adviser shall have notified Insurer in writing within a reasonable time after the summons or other first legal process giving information of the nature of the action 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 Insurer of any such action shall not relieve Insurer from any liability which it may have to the Indemnified Party against whom such action is brought otherwise than on account of this Section 12. 1. In case any such action is brought against an Indemnified Party, Insurer shall be entitled to participate, at its own expense, in the defense of such action. Insurer also shall be entitled to assume the defense thereof, (which shall include, without limitation, the conduct of any ruling request and closing agreement or other settlement proceeding with the Internal Revenue Service) with counsel approved by the Indemnified Party named in the action, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld. After notice from Insurer to such Indemnified Party of Insurer’s election to assume the defense thereof, the Indemnified Party will cooperate fully with Insurer and shall bear the fees and expenses of any additional counsel retained by it, and Insurer will not be liable to such Indemnified Party under this Agreement for any legal or other expenses subsequently incurred by such Indemnified Party independently in connection with the defense thereof, other than reasonable costs of investigation.

12.2 Indemnification of Insurer and Contracts Distributor by Adviser.

(a) Except to the extent provided in Sections 12.2(d) and 12.2(e), below, Adviser agrees to indemnify and hold harmless Insurer and Contracts Distributor, each of their directors and officers, and each person, if any, who controls Insurer or Contracts Distributor within the meaning of Section 15 of the 1933 Act (collectively, the “Indemnified Parties” for purposes of this Section 12.2) against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities (including amounts paid in settlement with the written consent of Adviser) or actions in respect thereof (including, to the extent reasonable, legal and other expenses) to which the Indemnified Parties may become subject under any statute, at common law or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or actions are related to the sale, acquisition, or holding of the Fund’s shares and:

(i)

arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of any material fact contained in the Fund’s 1933 Act registration statement, Fund Prospectus, sales literature or advertising of the Fund or, to the extent not prepared by Insurer or Contracts Distributor, sales literature or advertising for the Contracts (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 Distributor, Adviser or the Fund by or on behalf of Insurer or Contracts Distributor for use in the Fund’s 1933 Act registration statement, Fund Prospectus, or in sales literature or advertising (or any amendment or supplement to any of the foregoing); or

(ii)

arise out of or as a result of any other statements or representations (other than statements or representations contained in the Separate Account’s 1933 Act registration statement or other offering document, Separate Account Prospectus, sales literature or advertising for the Contracts, or any amendment or supplement to any of the foregoing, not supplied for use therein by or on behalf of Distributor, Adviser, or the Fund) or the negligent, illegal or fraudulent conduct of the Fund, Distributor, Adviser or persons under their control (including, without limitation, their employees and Associated Persons), in connection with the sale or distribution of the Contracts or Fund shares; or

(iii)

arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of any material fact contained in the Separate Account’s 1933 Act registration statement or other offering document, Separate Account Prospectus, sales literature or advertising covering the Contracts, or any amendment or supplement to any of the foregoing, 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 was made in reliance upon and in conformity with information furnished to Insurer or Contracts Distributor by or on behalf of the Fund, Distributor or Adviser for use in the Separate Account’s 1933 Act registration statement, Separate Account Prospectus, sales literature or advertising covering the Contracts, or any amendment or supplement to any of the foregoing; or

(iv)

arise as a result of any failure by the Fund, Adviser or Distributor to perform the obligations, provide the services and furnish the materials required of them under the terms of this Agreement;

(b) Except to the extent provided in Sections 12.2(d) and 12.2(e) hereof, Adviser agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Indemnified Parties from and against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities (including amounts paid in settlement thereof with, except as set forth in Section 12.2(c) below, the written consent of Adviser) or actions in respect thereof (including, to the extent reasonable, legal and other expenses) to which the Indemnified Parties may become subject directly or indirectly under any statute, at common law or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or actions directly or indirectly result from or arise out of the failure of any Portfolio to operate as a regulated investment company in compliance with (i) Subchapter M of the Code and regulations thereunder and (ii) Section 817(h) of the Code and regulations thereunder (except to the extent that such failure is caused by Insurer), including, without limitation, any income taxes and related penalties, rescission charges, liability under state law to Contract owners or Participants asserting liability against Insurer or Contracts Distributor pursuant to the Contracts, the costs of any ruling and closing agreement or other settlement with the Internal Revenue Service, and the cost of any substitution by Insurer of shares of another investment company or portfolio for those of any adversely affected Portfolio as a funding medium for the Separate Account that Insurer deems necessary or appropriate as a result of the noncompliance.

(c) The written consent of Adviser referred to in Section 12.2(b) above shall not be required with respect to amounts paid in connection with any ruling and closing agreement or other settlement with the Internal Revenue Service.

(d) Adviser shall not be liable under this Section 12.2 with respect to any losses, claims; damages, liabilities or actions to which an Indemnified Party would otherwise be subject by reason of willful misfeasance, bad faith, or gross negligence in the performance by that Indemnified Party of its duties or by reason of such Indemnified Party’s reckless disregard of its obligations and duties under this Agreement or to Insurer, Contracts Distributor or the Separate Account.

(e) Adviser shall not be liable under this Section 12.2 with respect to any action against an Indemnified Party unless Insurer or Contracts Distributor shall have notified Adviser in writing within a reasonable time after the summons or other first legal process giving information of the nature of the action 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 Adviser of any such action shall not relieve Adviser from any liability which it may have to the Indemnified Party against whom such action is brought otherwise than on account of this Section 12.2. In case any such action is brought against an Indemnified Party, Adviser will be entitled to participate, at its own expense, in the defense of such action. Adviser also shall be entitled to assume the defense thereof (which shall include, without limitation, the conduct of any ruling request and closing agreement or other settlement proceeding with the Internal Revenue Service), with counsel approved by the Indemnified Party named in the action, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld. After notice from Adviser to such Indemnified Party of Adviser’s election to assume the defense thereof, the Indemnified Party will cooperate fully with Adviser and shall bear the fees and expenses of any additional counsel retained by it, and Adviser will not be liable to such Indemnified Party under this Agreement for any legal or other expenses subsequently incurred by such Indemnified Party independently in connection with the defense thereof, other than reasonable costs of investigation.

12.3 Effect of Notice.

Any notice given by the indemnifying Party to an Indemnified Party referred to in Section 12.1(c) or 12.2(e) above of participation in or control of any action by the indemnifying Party will in no event be deemed to be an admission by the indemnifying Party of liability, culpability or responsibility, and the indemnifying Party will remain free to contest liability with respect to the claim among the Parties or otherwise.
