Company, a life insurance company organized under the laws of the State of
Colorado (the "Company"), Variable Insurance Products Fund, an unincorporated
business trust organized under the laws of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts
(the "Fund"), and Fidelity Distributors Corporation, a Massachusetts corporation
(the "Underwriter") (collectively, the "Parties").
WHEREAS, the Parties executed a participation agreement dated August 10,
1994 (the "Participation Agreement"), governing how shares of the Fund's
portfolios are to be made available to certain variable life insurance and/or
variable annuity contracts (the "Contracts") offered by the Company through
certain separate accounts (the "Separate Accounts");
WHEREAS, the various contracts for which shares are purchased are listed
in Schedule A of the Participation Agreement;
WHEREAS, the Parties have agreed that it is in their interests to add an
additional Contract and class of Fund to be purchased by the Separate Accounts;
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of their mutual promises, the Company,
the Fund and the Underwriter agree as follows:
1. The Participation Agreement is hereby amended by substituting for
the current Schedule A an amended Schedule A in the form attached
hereto which adds the Strategic Benefit and Estate Designer
Variable Universal Life policies to the list of Contracts funded
by the Separate Accounts.
2. Section 2.5 of Article II. Representations and Warranties is
hereby deleted and replaced in its entirety with the following:
2.5. (a) With respect to Initial Class shares, the Fund
currently does not intend to make any payments to finance
distribution expenses pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the
1940 Act or otherwise, although it may make such payments
in the future. The Fund has adopted a "no fee" or
"defensive" Rule 12b-1 Plan under which it makes no
payments for distribution expenses. To the extent that it
decides to finance distribution expenses pursuant to Rule
12b-1, the Fund undertakes to have a board of trustees, a
majority of whom are not interested persons of the Fund,
formulate and approve any plan under Rule 12b-1 to finance
distribution expenses.
(b) With respect to Service Class shares and Service Class
2 shares, the Fund has adopted Rule 12b-1 Plans under
which it makes payments to finance distribution expenses.
The Fund represents and warrants that it has a board of
trustees, a majority of whom are not interested persons of
the Fund, which has formulated and approved each of its
Rule 12b-1 Plans to finance distribution expenses of the
Fund and that any changes to the Fund's Rule 12b-1 Plans
will be approved by a similarly constituted board of
trustees.
3. Paragraph 5.1 of Article V. Fees and Expenses is hereby amended
to delete the following sentence as of the date of this
Amendment, "Currently, no such payments are contemplated."
4. The Participation Agreement is hereby amended by substituting for
the current Schedule C an amended Schedule C in the form attached
hereto which adds certain other investment options to the
Contracts funded by the Separate Accounts.
5. The Participation Agreement is hereby amended by substituting for
the current Schedule D an amended Schedule D in the form attached
hereto which adds certain classes of certain Fidelity Funds to
some Contracts funded by the Separate Accounts.
