AN OVERVIEW OF PACIFIC SELECT VARIABLE ANNUITY II-FEES AND EXPENSES PAID BY THE
PACIFIC SELECT FUND: OTHER EXPENSES IS REPLACED
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The following replaces the OTHER EXPENSES Section on page 7 of the Prospectus:
OTHER EXPENSES
The table also shows the advisory fee and Fund expenses as an annual percentage
of each Portfolio's average daily net assets for the year 2000, adjusted to
reflect reduced custody fees. To help limit Fund expenses, effective July 1,
2000 we contractually agreed to waive all or part of our investment advisory
fees or otherwise reimburse each Portfolio for operating expenses (including
organizational expenses, but not including advisory fees, additional costs
associated with foreign investing and extraordinary expenses) that exceed an
annual rate of 0.10% of its average daily net assets. Such waiver or
reimbursement is subject to repayment to us to the extent such expenses fall
below the 0.10% expense cap. For each Portfolio, our right to repayment is
limited to amounts waived and/or reimbursed that exceed the new 0.10% expense
cap and, except for Portfolios that started on or after October 2, 2000, that do
not exceed the previously established 0.25% expense cap. Any amounts repaid to
us will have the effect of increasing expenses of the Portfolio, but not above
the 0.10% expense cap. There is no guarantee that we will continue to cap
expenses after December 31, 2001. In 2000, Pacific Life reimbursed approximately
$19,662 to the I-Net Tollkeeper Portfolio, $12,631 to the Strategic Value
Portfolio, $4,849 to the Focused 30 Portfolio and $15,042 to the Small-Cap Index
Portfolio.

</TABLE>
(1) Expenses are estimated. There were no actual advisory fees or expenses for
these Portfolios in 2000 because the Portfolios started after December
31, 2000.
(2) Total adjusted net expenses for these Portfolios, after deduction of an
offset for custodian credits were: 1.29% for Emerging Markets Portfolio,
0.69% for the Small-Cap Equity Portfolio, 1.18% for International Large-Cap
Portfolio, 1.60% for I-Net Tollkeeper Portfolio, 0.28% for Equity Index
Portfolio, 0.60% for Small-Cap Index Portfolio, 0.62% for Government
Securities Portfolio, 0.64% for Managed Bond Portfolio, 0.37% for Money
Market Portfolio, and 0.63% for High Yield Bond Portfolio.
+ The Fund has adopted a brokerage enhancement 12b 1 plan, under which
brokerage transactions may be placed with broker-dealers in return for
credits, cash, or other compensation that may be used to help promote
distribution of Fund shares. There are no fees or charges to any Portfolio
under this plan, although the Fund's distributor may defray expenses of up
to approximately $850,000 for the year 2000, which it might otherwise incur
for distribution. If such defrayed amount were considered a Fund expense, it
would represent approximately .0067% or less of any Portfolio's average
daily net assets.

if, at the end of each period, you: annuitized your Contract; surrendered your
Contract and withdrew the Contract Value, or did not annuitize or surrender, but

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION: TELEPHONE TRANSACTIONS IS CHANGED TO TELEPHONE AND
ELECTRONIC TRANSACTIONS
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The following replaces TELEPHONE TRANSACTIONS on page 35 of the Prospectus:
TELEPHONE AND ELECTRONIC TRANSACTIONS
You are automatically entitled to make certain transactions by telephone or, to
the extent available in early 2001, electronically. You may also authorize other
people to make certain transaction requests by telephone or to the extent
available electronically by so indicating on the application or by sending us
instructions in writing in a form acceptable to us. We cannot guarantee that you
or any other person you authorize will always be able to reach us to complete a
telephone or electronic transaction; for example, all telephone lines or our
web-site may be busy during certain periods, such as periods of substantial
market fluctuations or other drastic economic or market change, or telephones or
the internet may be out of service during severe weather conditions or other
emergencies. Under these circumstances, you should submit your request in
writing (or other form acceptable to us). Transaction instructions we receive by
telephone or electronically before 4:00 p.m. Eastern time on any Business Day
will usually be effective on that day, and we will provide you confirmation of
each telephone or electronic transaction.
We have established procedures reasonably designed to confirm that instructions
communicated by telephone or electronically are genuine. These procedures may
require any person requesting a telephone or electronic transaction to provide
certain personal identification upon our request. We may also record all or part
of any telephone conversation with respect to transaction instructions. We
reserve the right to deny any transaction request made by telephone or
electronically. You are authorizing us to accept and to act upon instructions
received by telephone or electronically with respect to your Contract, and you
agree that, so long as we comply with our procedures, neither we, any of our
affiliates, nor the Fund, or any of their directors, trustees, officers,
employees or agents will be liable for any loss, liability, cost or expense
(including attorneys' fees) in connection with requests that we believe to be
genuine. This policy means that so long as we comply with our procedures, you
will bear the risk of loss arising out of the telephone and electronic
transaction privileges of your Contract. If a Contract has Joint Owners, each
Owner may individually make transaction requests by telephone.
WE EXPECT TO MAKE THE ELECTRONIC TRANSACTION AND DELIVERY FEATURES AVAILABLE IN
EARLY 2001. PLEASE ASK YOU REGISTERED REPRESENTATIVE FOR MORE INFORMATION
ELECTRONIC DELIVERY AUTHORIZATION
Subject to availability, you may authorize us to provide prospectuses,
statements and other information ("documents") electronically by so
indicating on the application, or by sending us instructions in writing in a
form acceptable to us to receive such documents electronically. You must have
internet access to use this service. While we impose no additional charge for
this service, there may be potential costs associated with electronic
delivery, such as on-line charges. Documents will be available on our
Internet Web site. You may access and print all documents provided through
this service. As documents become available, we will notify you of this by
sending you an e-mail message that will include instructions on how to
retrieve the document. If our e-mail notification is returned to us as
"undeliverable," we will contact you to obtain your updated e-mail address.
If we are unable to obtain a valid e-mail address for you, we will send a
paper copy by regular U.S. mail to your address of record. You may revoke
your consent for electronic delivery at any time and we will resume providing
you with a paper copy of all required documents; however, in order for us to
be properly notified, your revocation must be given to us a reasonable time
before electronic delivery has commenced. We will provide you with paper
copies at any time upon request. Such request will not constitute revocation
of your consent to receive required documents electronically.
