appropriate federal and state regulatory agencies as required by law or
regulation. Broker/Dealer shall hold Insurer, Distributor and their

and their respective affiliates from any and all claims, direct or indirect
liabilities, losses and expenses which any such party may incur resulting
from requests, directions, actions or inactions of Broker/Dealer and/or its
officers, employees, or Registered Representatives based upon: (a) any
alleged untrue or untrue statement made by Broker/Dealer and/or its
officers, employees, or Registered Representatives, unless such statement

Registered Representatives who have access to funds of Insurer or who are

fidelity bond including coverage for larceny, embezzlement and other
defalcation, issued by a reputable bonding company. This bond shall be
maintained at Broker/Dealer expense. Such bond shall be at least equivalent
to the minimum coverage required under the NASD Rules of Fair Practice,
endorsed to extend coverage to life insurance and annuity transactions.
Broker/Dealer acknowledges that Insurer may require evidence that such
coverage is in force and Broker/Dealer shall promptly give notice to
Insurer of any notice of cancellation or change of coverage.
Broker/Dealer assigns any proceeds received from the fidelity bond company
to Insurer to the extent of Insurer's loss due to activities covered by the
bond. If there is any deficiency, Broker/Dealer shall promptly pay Insurer
that amount on demand and Broker/Dealer indemnifies and holds harmless
Insurer from any deficiency and from the cost of collection.
VIII. LIMITATIONS OF AUTHORITY

Insurer has the authority to make, alter or discharge any policy, Contract,
certificate, supplemental contract or form issued by Insurer. Insurer may
make such changes as it deems advisable in the conduct of its business or

liability to the Broker/Dealer will attach to Insurer or Distributor by
reason of Insurer so doing. No person other than Insurer has the right to
waive any provision with respect to any Contract or policy. No person other
than Insurer has the authority to enter into any proceeding in a court of
law or before a regulatory agency in the name of or on behalf of Insurer.
IX. COMMISSION LIMITATIONS

applicable expense and compensation limitations set forth in the New York
Insurance Law governing the sale of the Contracts. The Insurer will not
knowingly permit to be paid, by any party, payments in excess of these
limitations.

Representatives shall cooperate with Insurer and/or Distributor in the

Registered Representatives relating to the solicitation or sale of
Contracts under this Agreement. Broker/Dealer shall promptly forward to
Insurer and/or Distributor any notice or other relevant information that
may come into its possession.
XI. PRINCIPLES OF ETHICAL MARKET CONDUCT
In all matters relating to the sale and marketing of life insurance and
annuity products, Insurer is fully committed to the following Principles:

within the scope of this Agreement in accordance with these Principles.
XII. GENERAL PROVISIONS

subsidiary of Distributor or Insurer. (Registered Representatives are
independent contractors and not employees of Distributor or Insurer.)
C. INDEPENDENT ASSIGNMENT
