I
The Agreement shall be modified so that paragraph 1.12 is added to Article I.,
"Purchase and Redemption of Fund Portfolio Shares". Article I shall be amended
as follows:
1.12 In the event adjustments are required to correct any material
error in the computation of the net asset value of the Fund's shares,
the Fund shall notify Minnesota Life as soon as practicable after
discovering the need for those adjustments which result in a
reimbursement to an Account in accordance with the Fund's then current
policies on reimbursement, which the Fund represents are consistent
with applicable SEC standards. If an adjustment is to be made in
accordance with such policies to correct an error which has caused an
Account to receive an amount different than that to which it is
entitled, the Fund shall make all necessary adjustments to the number
of shares owned in the Account and distribute to the Account the amount
of such underpayment for credit to Minnesota Life's Contract/Policy
Owners.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Fund, the Adviser and the Minnesota Life have caused
this amendment to be executed in triplicate by their duly authorized officers.
