You'll find more about the death benefit      This policy offers two ways to calculate the guideline minimum death benefit:
starting on page 18.                          the cash value accumulation test and the guideline premium test. These are
                                              called death benefit qualification tests. The test you choose will generally
                                              depend on the amount of premiums you want to pay. In general, you should choose

                                              premiums you can pay into your policy.

                                              You cannot change your death benefit qualification test. But you can change
                                              your death benefit option and increase or decrease your policy's face amount
                                              (with certain restrictions) while your policy is in force. Any of these changes
                                              may affect your policy charges.

                                              without paying any current income tax. There is currently no charge for
                                              transfers.

                                              You can make as many transfers as you like between variable investment options.

                                              You can take out a loan from us using your policy's accumulated value as
                                              security. You pay interest at an annual rate of 3.55% on the amount you borrow.
                                              The accumulated value used to secure your loan is set aside in a loan account,
                                              where it earns interest at an annual rate of 3% during the first 10 policy
                                              years, and 3.3% thereafter.

                                           beneficiaries:

                                           . You can name one or more primary beneficiaries who each receive an equal share
                                             of the death benefit proceeds unless you tell us otherwise. If one beneficiary

Policy date, monthly payment               Your policy date
date, policy anniversary date              This is usually the day we approve your policy application. It's also the
                                           beginning of your first policy year. Your policy's monthly, quarterly, semi-
                                           annual and annual anniversary dates are based on your policy date.

                                           The policy date is set so that it never falls on the 29th, 30th or 31st of any
                                           month. We'll apply your first premium payment as of your policy date or as of
                                           the day we receive your premium, whichever is later.

                                           Backdating your policy
                                           You can have your policy backdated up to six months, as long as we approve it.
                                           Backdating in some cases may lower your cost of insurance rates since these
                                           rates are based on the age of the person insured by the policy. Your first
                                           premium payment must cover the premium load and monthly charges for the period
                                           between the backdated policy date and the day your policy is issued.

                                           Your monthly payment date
                                           This is the day we deduct the monthly charges from your policy's accumulated
                                           value. The first monthly payment date is your policy date, and it's the same

                                           This is the same day as your policy date every year after we issue your policy.
                                           A policy year starts on your policy date and each anniversary date, and ends on
                                           the day before the next anniversary date.

                                              This test determines what the death benefit should be in relation to your
                                              policy's accumulated value. In general, as your policy's accumulated value
                                              increases, the death benefit must also increase to ensure that your policy

                                              The death benefit determined by your policy's net single premium will be at

                                              age 40 or younger, and reduces as the person gets older.

                                              Under this test, the total premiums you pay cannot exceed your policy's

                                              policy's accumulated value, increase with the amount of the death benefit, as
                                              well as over time. The cost of insurance is charged at a rate per $1,000 of the
                                              discounted net amount at risk. As the net amount at risk increases, your cost
                                              of insurance increases. Accumulated value also varies depending on the
                                              performance of the investment options in your policy.

                                              . Each increase you make to the face amount must be $25,000 or more.

                                              . For any increase in face amount which arises from conversion of a term rider,
                                                we will waive the surrender charge and the mortality and expense risk charge
                                                that would otherwise apply for the increase.

                                              . We will allow an increase in face amount only if the resulting death benefit
                                                increase at least equals our minimum limit on the request date.

                                              . We will not allow an increase if there has been a prior decrease in face

                                              Things to keep in mind
                                              Combining a policy and a rider may be more economical than adding another
                                              policy. It may also be more economical to provide an amount of insurance
                                              coverage through a policy alone.

                                              Under certain circumstances, combining a policy with an Annual renewable term rider
                                              may result in a face amount equal to the face amount of a single policy until age 80.
                                              Combining a policy and an Annual renewable term rider will result in current charges
                                              that are lower than for a single policy with the same face amount.

                                              However, your policy has guaranteed maximum charges. Adding an Annual renewable
                                              term rider will result in guaranteed maximum charges that are higher than for a
                                              single policy with the same face amount.

                                                                                                                           25

                                              This charge helps pay for the cost of distributing our policies and is

cost of insurance.                         Net amount at risk for the cost of insurance calculation is the difference

                                           by the policy died and the accumulated value of your policy at the beginning of
                                           the policy month before the monthly charge is due.

                                           First, we calculate the total net amount at risk for your policy in two steps:

                                           . Step 1: we divide the death benefit that would be payable at the beginning of
                                             the policy month by 1.002466.

                                           . Step 2: we subtract your policy's accumulated value at the beginning of the
                                             policy month from the amount we calculated in step 1.

                                           Next, we allocate the net amount at risk in proportion to the face amount and
                                           each increase that's in force as of your monthly payment date.

                                           We then multiply the amount of each allocated net amount at risk by the cost of
                                           insurance rate for each coverage. The sum of these amounts is your cost of
                                           insurance charge.

Lapsing and reinstatement                     Your policy will lapse if there is not enough accumulated value, after
                                              subtracting any outstanding loan amount, to cover the monthly charge on the day
                                              we make the deduction. Your policy's accumulated value is affected by the
                                              following:

                                              . loans or withdrawals you make from your policy

                                              . charges under the policy.

                                              There is no guarantee that your policy will not lapse even if you pay your
                                              planned periodic premium.

                                              If there is not enough accumulated value to pay the total monthly charge, we
                                              deduct the amount that's available and send you, and anyone you've assigned
                                              your policy to, a notice telling you the minimum amount you have to pay to keep
                                              your policy in force. This minimum amount is equal to three times the monthly
                                              charge that was due on the monthly payment date when there was not enough
                                              accumulated value to pay the charge.

                                              We'll give you a grace period of 61 days from when we send the notice to pay
                                              the required premium. Your policy will remain in force during the grace period.

                                              If you do not make the minimum payment

                                              If we do not receive your payment within the grace period, your policy will
                                              lapse with no value. This means we'll end your life insurance coverage.

treat it as a loan repayment.                 If we receive your payment within the grace period, we'll allocate your net

                                              from your investment options in proportion to the accumulated value you have in
                                              each option.

                                              If your policy is in danger of lapsing and you have an outstanding loan amount,
                                              you may find that making the minimum payment would cause the total premiums
                                              paid to exceed the maximum amount for your policy's face amount under tax laws.
                                              In that situation, we will not accept the portion of your payment that would
                                              exceed the maximum amount. To stop your policy from lapsing, you'll have to
                                              repay a portion of your outstanding loan amount.

                                              How to avoid future lapsing

                                              To stop your policy from lapsing in the future, you may want to make larger or
                                              more frequent premium payments if tax laws permit it. Or if you have a loan,
                                              you may want to repay a portion of it.

                                              Paying death benefit proceeds during the grace period

                                              If the person insured by the policy dies during the grace period, we'll pay
                                              death benefit proceeds to your beneficiary. We'll reduce the payment by any
                                              unpaid monthly charges and any outstanding loan amount.

                                              . a premium payment sufficient to keep your policy in force for three months
                                                after the day your policy is reinstated

                                              . payment of all unpaid monthly charges that were due in the grace period.

                                              We'll reinstate your policy as of the first monthly payment date on or after
                                              the day we approve the reinstatement. Once we reinstate your policy, its
                                              accumulated value will be the same as it was on the day your policy lapsed.
                                              We'll allocate it according to your most recent premium allocation

                                              Reinstating a lapsed policy with an outstanding loan amount

                                              If you had an outstanding loan amount when your policy lapsed, we will not pay
                                              or credit interest on it during the period between the lapsing and
                                              reinstatement of your policy. There are special rules that apply to reinstating
                                              a policy with an outstanding loan amount:

                                              . If we reinstate your policy on the first monthly payment date that immediately
                                                follows the lapse, we'll also reinstate the loan amount that was outstanding
                                                the day your policy lapsed.

                                              . If we reinstate your policy on any monthly payment date other than the monthly
                                                payment date that immediately follows the lapse, we'll deduct the outstanding
                                                loan amount from your policy's accumulated value. This means you will no longer
                                                have an outstanding loan amount when your policy is reinstated.

                                              The unit value calculation is based on the following:
                                              . the investment performance of the underlying portfolio
                                              . any dividends or distributions paid by the underlying portfolio
                                              . any charges for any taxes that are, or may become, associated with the
                                                operation of the variable account.

                                              The unit value of a variable account will change with the value of its
                                              corresponding Pacific Select Fund portfolio. Changes in the unit value of a
                                              variable account will not change the number of accumulation units credited to
                                              your policy.

                                              A look at performance
                                              Performance information may appear in advertisements, sales literature, or
                                              reports to policy owners or prospective buyers.

                                              Information about the performance of any variable account of the separate
                                              account reflects only the performance of a hypothetical policy. The
                                              calculations are based on allocating the hypothetical policy's accumulated
                                              value to the variable account during a particular time period.

                                              Performance information is no guarantee of how a variable account will perform
                                              in the future. You should keep in mind the investment objectives and policies,
                                              characteristics and quality of the portfolio of the fund in which the variable
                                              account invests, and the market conditions during the period of time that's
                                              shown.

                                              We may show performance information in any way that's allowed under the law
                                              that applies to it. This may include presenting a change in accumulated value
                                              due to the performance of one or more variable accounts, or as a change in a
                                              policy owner's death benefit.

                                                  We may show performance as a change in accumulated value over time or in terms
                                                  of the average annual compounded rate of return on accumulated value. This
                                                  would be based on allocating premium payments for a hypothetical policy to a
                                                  particular variable account over certain periods of time, including one year,
                                                  or from the day the variable account started operating. If a portfolio has
                                                  existed for longer than its corresponding variable account, we may also show
                                                  the hypothetical returns that the variable account would have achieved had it
                                                  invested in the portfolio from the day the portfolio started operating.

                                                  Performance may reflect the deduction of all policy charges including premium
                                                  load, the cost of insurance, the administrative charge, and the mortality and
                                                  expense risk charge. The different death benefit options will result in
                                                  different expenses for the cost of insurance, and the varying expenses will
                                                  result in different accumulated values.

                                                  Performance may also reflect the deduction of the surrender charge, if it
                                                  applies, by assuming the hypothetical policy is surrendered at the end of the
                                                  particular period. At the same time, we may give other performance figures that
                                                  do not assume the policy is surrendered and do not reflect any deduction of the
                                                  surrender charge.

                                                  In our advertisements, sales literature and reports to policy owners, we may

                                              ways:

                                              . if your policy's death benefit does not equal the guideline minimum death
                                                benefit, the death benefit will decrease by the amount of your withdrawal.
                                              . if your policy's death benefit equals the guideline minimum death benefit, the
                                                death benefit may decrease by more than the amount of your withdrawal.

                                              How withdrawals affect your policy's face amount
                                              If you've chosen death benefit Option B or Option C, making a withdrawal does
                                              not reduce your policy's face amount.

                                              If you've chosen death benefit Option A, a withdrawal may reduce your face
                                              amount. You can make one withdrawal during each of the first 15 policy years of
                                              up to 10% of the total premium payments you've made without reducing your
                                              policy's face amount. If you withdraw a larger amount, or make additional
                                              withdrawals, the face amount will be reduced by the amount, if any, by which
                                              the face amount exceeds the death benefit immediately before the withdrawal,
                                              minus the amount of the withdrawal.

                                                                                                                            41

                                              the value of your policy. For example, while your policy's accumulated value is
                                              held in the loan account, it will miss out on the potential earnings available
                                              through the variable investment options. The amount of interest you earn on the
                                              loan account may be less than the amount of interest you would have earned from
                                              the fixed options. These could lower your policy's accumulated value, which
                                              could reduce the amount of the death benefit.

                                              policy.

Income benefit                                If you surrender or make a withdrawal from your policy, you can use the money
                                              to buy an income benefit that provides a monthly income. Your policy's
                                              beneficiary can use death benefit proceeds to buy an income benefit. In
                                              addition to the income benefit described below, you can choose from other
                                              income benefits we may make available from time to time.

                                              The following is one income benefit available under the Pacific Select Exec II
                                              policy:

                                              . The income benefit is based on the life of the person receiving the income. If
                                                the policy owner is buying the income benefit, monthly income will be based on
                                                the owner's life. If the policy's beneficiary buys the income benefit, monthly
                                                income will be based on the beneficiary's life.
                                              . We'll pay a monthly income for at least 10 years regardless of whether the
                                                person receiving the income is still alive.
                                              . After 10 years, we'll only pay the monthly income for as long as the person
                                                receiving it is still alive.
                                              . The minimum monthly income benefit calculated must be at least $100.
                                              . For this income benefit, the amount you receive will always be at least as
                                                much as the amount guaranteed by your policy.

Reduced Paid-Up Benefit                       You may use the net cash surrender value of your policy to purchase guaranteed
                                              fixed paid-up insurance on the life of the person insured by the policy. You
                                              may choose to do this at any time while the policy is in force.

                                              If you convert your policy, the net cash surrender value will be transferred to
                                              our general account. The amount of paid-up insurance is determined by applying
                                              the net cash surrender value as the net single premium based upon the insured's
                                              age and risk class, 1980 CSO mortality table, and 3% interest. Any riders
                                              attached to the policy will terminate at the time of conversion.

                                              not in your best interest. You should carefully compare the costs and benefits

                                                your policy, or in some instances, taking a loan from your policy.

                                              The tax laws defining life insurance, however, do not cover all policy
                                              features. Your policy may have features that could prevent it from qualifying
                                              as life insurance. For example, the tax laws have yet to address many issues
                                              concerning the treatment of substandard risk policies and policies with term
                                              insurance on the person insured by the policy. We can make changes to your
                                              policy if we believe the changes are needed to ensure that your policy
                                              continues to qualify as a life insurance contract.

                                              Tax regulations deal with allowable charges for mortality costs and other

                                              The Treasury Department has issued proposed regulations about reasonable
                                              standards for mortality charges. While we believe that our mortality costs and

                                              are needed to ensure that your policy qualifies as a life insurance contract.

                                              provide guidance concerning the circumstances in which it will treat an
                                              investor, rather than the insurance company, as the owner of the assets in a
                                              separate account." The IRS treats a variable policy owner as the owner of

                                              further guidance on the issue, it had not done so when we wrote this
                                              prospectus.

                                              No IRS rulings deal with policies that have exactly the same ownership rights
                                              as your policy. Since you have additional flexibility in allocating premiums
                                              and policy values, it is possible the IRS would treat you as the owner of your
                                              policy's proportionate share of the assets of the separate account.

                                              We do not know what will be in future Treasury Department regulations. We
                                              cannot guarantee that the fund's portfolios will be able to operate as
                                              currently described in the prospectus, or that the fund will not have to change
                                              any portfolio's investment objective or policies. We can modify your policy if
                                              we believe it will prevent you from being considered the owner of your policy's
                                              proportionate share of the assets of the separate account.

Policy exchanges fall under Section           Policy exchanges
1035(a) of the tax code.                      If you exchange your entire policy for another one that insures the same
                                              person, it generally will be treated as a tax-free exchange and, if so, will
                                              not result in the recognition of gain or loss. If the person insured by the
                                              policy is changed, the exchange will be treated as a taxable exchange.

                                              You may have taxable income if you transfer ownership of your policy, sell your

                                             and $3,000 through the first three years, etc. Under this test, a Pacific
                                             Select Exec II - NY policy may or may not be a modified endowment contract,

                                             contract years or after a material change has been made to the policy.

                                             Surrendering your policy
                                             If you surrender your policy, you're taxed on the amount by which the cash
                                             surrender value exceeds the cost basis in the policy.

                                             Making a withdrawal or taking out a loan
                                             If you make a withdrawal or take out a loan from a modified endowment contract,
                                             you're taxed on the amount of the withdrawal or loan that's considered income,
                                             including all previously non-taxed gains. Income is the difference between the
                                             cash surrender value and the cost basis in your policy. It's unclear whether
                                             interest paid, or accrued, on a loan is considered interest for federal income
                                             tax purposes. If you borrow money to buy or carry certain life insurance
                                             policies, tax law provisions may limit the deduction of interest payable on
                                             loan proceeds. You should consult your tax adviser.

                                             All modified endowment contracts we or our affiliates issue to you in a
                                             calendar year are treated as a single contract when we calculate whether a
                                             distribution amount is subject to tax.

                                             10% penalty tax
                                             If any amount you receive from a modified endowment contract is taxable, you
                                             may also have to pay a penalty tax equal to 10% of the taxable amount.

                                             A taxpayer will not have to pay the penalty tax if any of the following
                                             exceptions apply:

                                             . you're at least 59 1/2 years old
                                             . you're receiving an amount because you've become disabled
                                             . you're receiving an amount that's part of a series of substantially equal
                                               periodic payments, paid out at least annually. These payments may be made for
                                               your life or life expectancy or for the joint lives or joint life expectancies
                                               of you and your beneficiaries.

                                             Distributions before a policy becomes a modified endowment contract
                                             If your policy fails the seven-pay test and becomes a modified endowment
                                             contract, any amount you receive or are deemed to have received during the two
                                             years before it became a modified endowment contract may be taxable. The
                                             distribution would be treated as having been made in anticipation of the
                                             policy's failing to meet the seven-pay test under Treasury Department
                                             regulations which are yet to be prescribed.

                                              --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

How we're organized                           PL&A was incorporated in 1982 under the name of Pacific Financial Life
                                              Insurance Company. It merged with Pacific Financial Life Insurance Company of
                                              Arizona and assumed the name PM Group Life Insurance Company in transferring
                                              domicile from California to Arizona, which was completed in 1990. On January 1,
                                              1999, we changed our name to our current name, PL&A.

                                              PL&A is a direct, wholly-owned subsidiary of Pacific Life Insurance Company.
                                              Pacific Life is a life insurance company based in California. Along with its
                                              subsidiaries and affiliates, Pacific Life's operations include life insurance,
                                              annuity, pension and institutional products, group employee benefits, broker-
                                              dealer operations, and investment advisory services.

                                              Pacific Life was established on January 2, 1868 under the name, Pacific Mutual
                                              Life Insurance Company of California. It was reincorporated as Pacific Mutual
                                              Life Insurance Company on July 22, 1936. On September 1, 1997, Pacific Life
                                              converted from a mutual life insurance company to a stock life insurance
                                              company. Pacific Life is a subsidiary of Pacific LifeCorp, a holding company,
                                              which in turn is a subsidiary of Pacific Mutual Holding Company, a mutual
                                              holding company.

                                              Under their charters, Pacific Mutual Holding Company must always hold at least
                                              51% of the outstanding voting stock of Pacific LifeCorp. Pacific LifeCorp must
                                              always own 100% of the voting stock of Pacific Life. Owners of Pacific Life's
                                              annuity contracts and life insurance policies have certain membership interests
                                              in Pacific Mutual Holding Company. They have the right to vote on the election
                                              of the Board of Directors of the mutual holding company and on other matters.
                                              They also have certain rights if the mutual holding company is liquidated or
                                              dissolved.

How policies are distributed                  Pacific Mutual Distributors, Inc. (PMD), our affiliate, is the distributor of

                                              California 92660.

                                              PMD is registered as a broker-dealer with the SEC and is a member of the
                                              National Association of Securities Dealers (NASD). We pay PMD for its services
                                              as our distributor.

                                              The policies are sold by registered representatives of broker-dealers who have
                                              signed agreements with us and PMD. Registered representatives must be licensed
                                              to sell variable life insurance under the state insurance and securities
                                              regulations that apply. Broker-dealers must be registered with the SEC.

                                              How we pay broker-dealers
                                              We pay broker-dealers commission for promoting, marketing and selling our
                                              policies. Broker-dealers pay a portion of the commission to their registered
                                              representatives, under their own arrangements.

                                              Commissions are based on "target" premiums we determine. The commission we pay
                                              will vary with the agreement, but the most common schedule of commissions we
                                              pay is:

A target premium is a hypothetical premium    . 63% of premiums paid up to the first target premium in the first policy year
that is used only to calculate commissions.   . 4% of premiums paid up to the first target premium after the first policy year
It varies with the death benefit option you   . 4% of the premiums paid under targets 2-10
choose, the age of the person insured by      . 2% of premiums paid in excess of the 10th target premium.
the policy on the policy date, and the
gender (unless unisex rates are required)     We may pay broker-dealers an annual renewal commission of up to 0.20% of a
and risk class of the person insured by       policy's accumulated value less any outstanding loan amount. We calculate the
the policy                                    renewal amount monthly and it becomes payable on each policy anniversary.

A policy's target premium will be less than
the policy's guideline level premiums.        We may also pay override payments, expense and marketing allowances, bonuses,
                                              wholesaler fees and training allowances.

                                              Registered representatives who meet certain sales levels can qualify for sales
                                              incentives programs we sponsor. We may also pay them non-cash compensation like
                                              expense-paid trips, expense-paid educational seminars, and merchandise. They
                                              can choose to receive their compensation on a deferred basis.

How our accounts work                         We own the assets in our general account and our separate account. We allocate
                                              your net premiums to these accounts according to the investment options you've
                                              chosen.

                                              General account
We can provide you with reports of our        Our general account includes all of our assets, except for those held in our

ability to pay claims with respect to our     amount allocated to the fixed options. The rate is reset annually. The fixed
general account assets.                       options are part of our general account, which we may invest as we wish,
                                              according to any laws that apply. We'll credit the guaranteed rate even if the
                                              investments we make earn less. Our ability to pay these guarantees is backed by
                                              our strength as a company.

                                              The fixed options are not securities, so they do not fall under any securities
                                              act. For this reason, the SEC has not reviewed the disclosure in this
                                              prospectus about the fixed options. However, other federal securities laws may
                                              apply to the accuracy and completeness of the disclosure about the fixed
                                              options.

                                              We can add, change or remove any securities that the separate account or any
                                              variable account holds or buys, as long as we comply with the laws that apply.

                                              We can substitute shares of one Pacific Select Fund portfolio with shares of
                                              another portfolio or fund if:

                                                the purposes of the policy.

                                              We'll give you any required notice or receive any required approval from policy
                                              owners or the SEC before we substitute any shares. We'll comply with the filing
                                              or other procedures established by insurance regulators as required by law.

                                              We can add new variable accounts, which may include additional subaccounts of
                                              the separate account, to serve as investment options under the policies. These
                                              may be managed separate accounts or they may invest in a new portfolio of the
                                              fund, or in shares of another investment company or one of its portfolios, or
                                              in a suitable investment vehicle with a specified investment objective.

                                              We can add new variable accounts when we believe that it's warranted by
                                              marketing needs or investment conditions. We'll decide on what basis we'll make
                                              new accounts available to existing policy owners.

                                                  investment trust, or any other form permitted under securities or other laws
                                                . register or deregister the separate account under securities law
                                                . combine the separate account with one of our other separate accounts or our
                                                  affiliates' separate accounts
                                                . combine one or more variable accounts
                                                . create a committee, board or other group to manage the separate account.

                                                We may be charged for state and local taxes. Currently, we pay these taxes
                                                because they are small amounts with respect to the policy. If these taxes
                                                increase significantly, we may deduct them from the separate account.

                                                We may charge the separate account for any federal, state and local taxes that

Voting rights                                   We're the legal owner of the shares of the Pacific Select Fund that are held by
                                                the variable accounts. We may vote on any matter at shareholder meetings of the
                                                fund. However, we are required by law to vote as you instruct on the shares
                                                relating to your allocation in a variable investment option. This is called
                                                your voting interest.

                                                Your voting interest is calculated as of a day set by the Board of Trustees of
                                                the fund called the record date. Your voting interest equals the accumulated
                                                value in a variable investment option divided by the net asset value of a share
                                                of the corresponding portfolio. Fractional shares are included. If allowed by
                                                law, we may change how we calculate your voting interest.

                                                We'll send you documents from the fund called proxy materials. They include
                                                information about the items you'll be voting on and forms for you to give us
                                                your instructions. We'll vote shares held in the separate account for which we
                                                do not receive voting instructions in the same proportion as all other shares
                                                in the portfolio held by that separate account for which we've received timely
                                                instructions.

                                                We'll vote shares of any portfolio we hold in our general account in the same
                                                proportion as the total votes for all of our separate accounts, including this

                                                . would approve or disapprove an investment advisory contract.

                                                We may disregard voting instructions on a change initiated by policy owners
                                                that would change a portfolio's investment policy, investment adviser or

Preparing for the year 2000                     We rely significantly on Pacific Life's computer systems and applications in
                                                our daily operations. Pacific Life long ago recognized the challenges
                                                associated with the Year 2000 date change. This change involves the ability of
                                                computer systems to properly recognize the Year 2000. The inability to do so
                                                could result in major failures or miscalculations. Pacific Life began prior to
                                                1995 to assess and plan for the potential impact of the Year 2000. More
                                                recently, Pacific Life has been executing a company-wide plan adopted during
                                                1998 which called for correction or replacement of remaining non-compliant
                                                systems by December 31, 1998.

                                                Pacific Life has successfully executed this project plan to date. Virtually all
                                                affected systems were remediated and tested in time for use during 1998 year-
                                                end processing cycles. Although it is not possible to certify that any system
                                                will be completely free of Year 2000 problems, they have performed extensive
                                                testing to identify and deal with such potential problems. Additionally, most
                                                of the company's critical systems were subject to an independent third-party
                                                review process which used sophisticated automated tools to identify Year 2000
                                                related bugs. The results have been very positive and Pacific Life feels the
                                                company's internal systems are positioned well for the date change in the
                                                century.

                                                Pacific Life plans to continue to test and re-test throughout 1999 and will
                                                respond promptly should any problems arise at any time thereafter.

                                                Pacific Life is continuing to work on contingency plans for critical business

                                                developed to work around unanticipated problems.

                                                In addition to the above, Pacific Life will continue to carefully evaluate
                                                responses from vendors and significant business partners regarding the
                                                compliance of their critical business processes and products. Although
                                                ultimately PL&A and Pacific Life cannot be responsible for the Year 2000
                                                compliance efforts of these outside entities, we will take appropriate steps
                                                wherever possible to develop contingency plans to address vendors and partners
                                                deemed non-compliant.

                                                                                                                              57

                                                estimated to range from $10 million to $12 million, which excludes the cost of

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT

PM Group Life Insurance Company:

We have audited the accompanying statements of admitted assets, liabilities and
capital and surplus - statutory basis of PM Group Life Insurance Company (the
"Company") as of December 31, 1998 and 1997, and the related statements of
operations - statutory basis, capital and surplus - statutory basis, and cash
flows - statutory basis for the years then ended. These financial statements
are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to
express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of
material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence
supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit
also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant
estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial
statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis
for our opinion.

As described more fully in Note 1 to the financial statements, the Company
prepared these financial statements using accounting practices prescribed or
permitted by the Insurance Department of the State of Arizona which practices
differ from generally accepted accounting principles. The effects on the
financial statements of the variances between the statutory basis of accounting
and generally accepted accounting principles are presumed to be material.

In our opinion, because of the effects of the matter described in the preceding
paragraph, the financial statements referred to above do not present fairly, in
conformity with generally accepted accounting principles, the financial
position of PM Group Life Insurance Company as of December 31, 1998 and 1997,
or the results of its operations or its cash flows for the years then ended.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in
all material respects, the admitted assets, liabilities and capital and surplus
of PM Group Life Insurance Company as of December 31, 1998 and 1997, and the
results of its operations and its cash flows for the years then ended, on the
basis of accounting described in Note 1.

                 NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS-STATUTORY BASIS

1. ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

   DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS

   PM Group Life Insurance Company ("PM Group") is a stock life insurance
   company domiciled in the State of Arizona, and a wholly-owned subsidiary of
   Pacific Life Insurance Company ("Pacific Life"), formerly Pacific Mutual
   Life Insurance Company ("Pacific Mutual"). PM Group offers group health,
   dental and life products to three principal market segments in the United
   States. Its Group Employee Benefits Operation serves larger employer groups
   of fifty or more lives, while the Multiple Employer Trust unit insures
   smaller employer groups with less than fifty lives per group. The Pacific
   Risk Management Services unit offers stop loss and life products to self-
   funded plan sponsors.

   Pursuant to consent received from the Insurance Department of the State of
   California, Pacific Mutual implemented a plan of conversion to form a
   mutual holding company structure (the "Conversion") on September 1, 1997.
   The Conversion created Pacific LifeCorp, an intermediate stock holding
   company and Pacific Mutual Holding Company ("PMHC"), a mutual holding
   company. Pacific Mutual was converted to a stock life insurance company and
   renamed Pacific Life. Under their respective charters, PMHC must always own
   at least 51% of the outstanding voting stock of Pacific LifeCorp, and
   Pacific LifeCorp must always own 100% of the voting stock of Pacific Life.

   BASIS OF PRESENTATION

   These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting
   practices prescribed or permitted by the Insurance Department of the State
   of Arizona, which is a comprehensive basis of accounting other than
   generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"). Prescribed statutory
   accounting practices include a variety of publications of the National
   Association of Insurance Commissioners ("NAIC"), as well as state laws,
   regulations, and general administrative rules. Permitted statutory
   accounting practices encompass all accounting practices not so prescribed.
   Accounting practices prescribed or permitted by the Insurance Department of
   the State of Arizona differ in certain respects, which in some cases are
   materially different from GAAP. The significant differences are noted
   below:

      An interest maintenance reserve ("IMR") is established to capture
      realized investment gains and losses, net of tax, on the sale of fixed
      income investments resulting from changes in the general level of
      interest rates, and is amortized into income over the remaining years
      to expected maturity of the assets sold under statutory accounting
      practices; no such reserve is required under GAAP.

      An asset valuation reserve ("AVR"), based upon a formula prescribed by
      the NAIC, is established as a liability to offset potential non-
      interest related investment losses, and changes in the AVR are charged
      or credited directly to surplus under statutory accounting practices;
      no such reserve is required under GAAP.

      Investments in bonds and preferred stocks are generally carried at
      amortized cost under statutory accounting practices; under GAAP,
      investments in bonds and preferred stocks, other than those classified
      as held to maturity, are carried at estimated fair value.

      Certain assets, principally deferred income taxes and furniture and
      equipment, are designated as non admitted and excluded from assets by a
      direct charge to surplus under statutory accounting practices; under
      GAAP, such assets are carried on the statement of financial condition
      with appropriate valuation allowances.

   In March 1998, the NAIC adopted the Codification of Statutory Accounting
   Principles ("Codification"). The Codification, which is intended to
   standardize regulatory accounting and reporting for the insurance industry,
   is

                                                                              67

1. ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

   proposed to be effective January 1, 2001. However, statutory accounting
   principles will continue to be established by individual state laws and
   permitted practices and it is uncertain when, or if, the state of Arizona
   will require adoption of Codification for the preparation of statutory
   financial statements. PM Group has not finalized the quantification of the
   effects of Codification on its statutory financial statements.

   The following is a reconciliation of statutory capital and surplus, as
   reflected in the accompanying financial statements, to stockholder's equity
   on a GAAP basis:

   There were no significant differences between statutory net income of $5.1
   million and GAAP net income of $5.8 million for the year ended December 31,
   1998 and statutory net income of $17.4 million and GAAP net income of $17.3
   million for the year ended December 31, 1997.

   PM Group's significant statutory accounting practices are described below.

   INVESTMENTS

   Bonds qualifying for amortization are carried at amortized cost; all other
   bonds are carried at prescribed values. Preferred stocks are principally
   stated at amortized cost. Common stocks are carried at market value.

   Mortgage loans are stated at unpaid principal balances. Real estate is
   valued at the lower of depreciated cost or market, less related mortgage
   debt. Real estate is depreciated using the straight-line method over 5 to
   30 years.

   Short-term investments are carried at amortized cost which approximates
   estimated fair value. Short-term investments generally consist of bonds,
   commercial paper and money market instruments whose maturities at the time
   of acquisition were one year or less.

   The AVR is computed in accordance with a prescribed formula and is designed
   to stabilize surplus against valuation and credit-related losses for
   certain invested assets. Changes to the AVR are reported as direct
   additions to, or deductions from, surplus. The IMR results in the deferral
   of after-tax realized capital gains and losses attributable to interest
   rate fluctuations on fixed income investments. These capital gains and
   losses are amortized into investment income over the remaining life of the
   investment sold. The IMR of $1.4 million and $1.2 million as of December
   31, 1998 and 1997, respectively, is included in other liabilities on the
   accompanying statements of admitted assets, liabilities and capital and
   surplus - statutory basis.

   Net realized capital gains and losses are determined on the specific
   identification method and are presented net of Federal capital gains tax
   and transfers to the IMR.

1. ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

   Derivatives are used principally for hedging purposes and are valued
   consistently with the hedged items.

   POLICY RESERVES AND DEPOSIT FUNDS

   Medical expense claim reserves are based on PM Group's actual loss
   experience. Life insurance reserves, including premium waivers, are based
   on various tabular methods and actual loss experience. Disabled life
   reserves are determined using various tabular reserve methods.

   The liability for deposit funds is based primarily on the policyholders'
   equity in their deposit accounts, including credited interest.

   REVENUES AND EXPENSES

   Premiums are recognized as revenue over the premium paying period.
   Investment income is recorded as earned.

   Expenses, including policy acquisition costs, and Federal income taxes are
   charged to operations as incurred.

   FEDERAL INCOME TAXES

   PM Group's operations are included in the consolidated Federal income tax
   return of PMHC, PM Group's ultimate parent. PM Group is allocated an income
   tax expense based on the effect of including its operations in the
   consolidated provision. Deferred taxes are provided for as permitted by the
   Insurance Department of the State of Arizona. The net deferred tax asset is
   non admitted. This practice has no effect on total surplus.

   OTHER SURPLUS TRANSACTIONS

   Other surplus transactions primarily consist of unrealized capital gains
   and losses, changes in non admitted assets and change in the AVR.

   ESTIMATED FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

   The estimated fair value of financial instruments disclosed in Notes 2 and
   3 has been determined using available market information and appropriate
   valuation methodologies. However, considerable judgment is required to
   interpret market data to develop the estimates of fair value. Accordingly,
   the estimates presented may not be indicative of the amounts PM Group could
   realize in a current market exchange. The use of different market
   assumptions and/or estimation methodologies could have a significant effect
   on the estimated fair value amounts.

   RISK-BASED CAPITAL

   Risk-based capital is a method developed by the NAIC to measure the minimum
   amount of capital appropriate for an insurance company to support its
   overall business operations in consideration of its size and risk profile.
   The formulas for determining the amount of risk-based capital specify
   various weighting factors that are applied to financial balances or various
   levels of activity based on the perceived degree of risk. The adequacy of a
   company's actual capital is measured by comparing it to the risk-based
   capital as determined by the formulas. Companies below minimum risk-based
   capital requirements are classified within certain levels, each of which
   requires specified corrective action. As of December 31, 1998 and 1997, PM
   Group exceeded the minimum risk-based capital requirements.

                                                                              69

1. ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)

   BUSINESS RISKS

   PM Group operates in a business environment which is subject to various
   risks and uncertainties. PM Group's group health insurance is subject to
   varying levels of regulation. The United States Congress has, from time to
   time, considered various health care proposals and several states have
   enacted health care reform legislation. Although it is not possible to
   predict what changes may be adopted at the state or Federal level, certain
   changes could have a negative impact upon the group health business of PM
   Group.

   USE OF ESTIMATES

   The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting
   practices prescribed or permitted by regulatory authorities requires
   management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported
   amounts of admitted assets and liabilities at the date of the financial
   statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the
   reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

   RECLASSIFICATIONS

   Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the 1998
   financial statement presentation.

2. INVESTMENTS IN DEBT SECURITIES

   The statement value, gross unrealized gains and losses, and estimated fair
   value of debt securities are shown below. Debt securities include bonds,
   redeemable preferred stocks and short-term investments. Short-term
   investments amounted to $38.0 million and $31.1 million as of December 31,
   1998 and 1997, respectively. The estimated fair value of publicly traded
   securities is based on quoted market prices. For securities not actively
   traded, estimated fair values were provided by independent pricing services
   specializing in "matrix pricing" and modeling techniques. PM Group also
   estimates certain fair values based on interest rates, credit quality and
   average maturity or from securities with comparable trading
   characteristics.

</TABLE>

   The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair value
   of these financial instruments as of December 31, 1998 and 1997:

   PREFERRED AND COMMON STOCKS

   The estimated fair values are based on quoted market prices or dealer
   quotes.

   MORTGAGE LOANS

   The estimated fair value of the mortgage loan portfolio is determined by
   discounting the estimated future cash flows, using a year-end market rate
   which is applicable to the yield, credit quality and average maturity of
   the composite portfolio.

   DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENT

   PM Group used an asset swap contract to manage interest rate and equity
   risk to better match portfolio duration to liabilities. Asset swap
   contracts involve the exchange of upside equity potential for fixed income
   streams. The amounts to be received or paid pursuant to the agreement are
   accrued and recognized through an adjustment to net investment income in
   the accompanying statements of operations - statutory basis over the life
   of the agreement. The asset swap contract matured during 1998. As of
   December 31, 1997 the asset swap contract had a notional principal amount
   of $5.0 million.

   DEPOSIT FUNDS

   The estimated fair value of deposit funds with no defined maturities is the
   amount payable on demand.

</TABLE>

   As a result of payment of prior years estimated claims, the provision for
   claims and claim adjustment expenses decreased by $18.3 million and $18.0
   million for the years ended December 31, 1998 and 1997, respectively. This
   reduction is primarily due to lower than anticipated settlement of claims
   and reduced claim adjustment expenses.

5. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

   Pacific Life provides services of certain management and other personnel,
   and other support services to PM Group. Services provided include employee
   participation in a pension plan and postretirement health care and life
   insurance plans maintained by Pacific Life. Charges for these services
   amounted to $12.1 million and $13.1 million for the years ended December
   31, 1998 and 1997, respectively, and are included in operating expenses on
   the accompanying statements of operations - statutory basis.

   PM Group permits certain officers and employees to defer a portion of
   current cash compensation under a deferred compensation plan maintained by
   Pacific Life. Interest accrued to this plan amounted to $312,375 and
   $252,886 for the years ended December 31, 1998 and 1997, respectively.

   Under a reinsurance and service agreement, which terminated on January 1,
   1999, PM Group assumed substantially all of Pacific Life's group life and
   health insurance. Premiums of $99.6 million and $98.6 million and benefits
   of $95.1 million and $82.1 million were assumed for the years ended
   December 31, 1998 and 1997, respectively. Amounts receivable under this
   agreement were $25.0 million and $16.8 million as of December 31, 1998 and
   1997, respectively.

                                                                              73

                 NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS-STATUTORY BASIS

6. POSTRETIREMENT HEALTH CARE AND LIFE INSURANCE PLANS

   PM Group participates in a defined benefit health care plan and a defined
   benefit life insurance plan (the "Plans") sponsored by Pacific Life that
   provide postretirement benefits for all eligible retirees and their
   dependents. Generally, qualified employees may become eligible for these
   benefits if they reach normal retirement age, have been covered under
   Pacific Life's policy as an active employee for a minimum continuous period
   prior to the date retired, and have an employment date before January 1,
   1990. The Plans contain cost-sharing features such as deductibles and
   coinsurance, and require retirees to make contributions which can be
   adjusted annually. Pacific Life's commitment to qualified employees who
   retire after April 1, 1994 is limited to specific dollar amounts. Pacific
   Life reserves the right to modify or terminate the Plans at any time.

   Pacific Life and PM Group utilize the accrual method of accounting for the
   costs of the Plans as prescribed by the Insurance Departments of the States
   of California and Arizona, respectively. PM Group has elected to amortize
   the transition obligation, which has been allocated from Pacific Life, of
   $3.7 million over twenty years. The transition obligation amortization
   amounted to $183,000 for each of the years ended December 31, 1998 and
   1997.

7. DIVIDEND RESTRICTIONS

   Dividend payments by PM Group to its parent cannot exceed the lesser of 10%
   of surplus as regards to policyholders or the statutory net gain from
   operations, without prior approval from the Insurance Commissioner of the
   State of Arizona. During 1997, PM Group received approval to pay an
   extraordinary dividend in excess of these limitations. For the year ended
   December 31, 1997, PM Group paid a dividend of $14.0 million, of which $8.0
   million was considered extraordinary. No dividends were paid during 1998.
   During 1999, PM Group can pay dividends amounting to approximately
   $6.1 million without prior approval from the Insurance Commissioner of the
   State of Arizona.

9.  LITIGATION

    PM Group is a respondent in a number of legal proceedings, some of which

                                              Assumptions
                                              Here are the assumptions we're using:

                                              . The hypothetical rates of return are equal to constant gross annual rates of
                                                0%, 6% and 12%.

                                              . All premium payments are made at the beginning of the policy year.

                                              . An amount equal to the annual premium, after taxes, is invested to earn
                                                interest at 5% compounded annually for the second column of each table, Total
                                                premiums paid plus interest at 5%, which shows the amount that would
                                                accumulate.

                                              . No policy loans have been taken out.

                                              . The amounts shown for the death benefits, accumulated values and net cash
                                                surrender values reflect charges deducted from the variable accounts. This
                                                means that the net investment return on the variable accounts is lower than the
                                                gross investment return on the assets.

                                              . The amounts shown for the death benefits, accumulated values and net cash
                                                surrender values also reflect premium loads, cost of insurance, administrative
                                                charges, mortality and expense risk charges, and surrender charges.

                                              . Illustrations 1 through 12 assume total annual advisory fees and expenses of
The fund's investment advisory fees and         .77% of total average daily net assets of the fund. This reflects average

                                              . Illustrations 13 and 14 assume total annual advisory fees and expenses of .72%
                                                of total average daily net assets of the fund. This reflects weighted average
                                                advisory fees of .65% and weighted average expenses of .08% based upon fees and
                                                expenses of portfolios available as investment options under the policy.

                                              . There are no charges against the variable accounts for income taxes but we
                                                reserve the right to impose charges in the future.

                                              Things to keep in mind
                                              Here are a few things to keep in mind when reviewing the illustrations:

                                              . The values shown would be different if, although the gross annual investment
                                                rates of return averaged 0%, 6% or 12% over a period of years, they also rose
                                                above or fell below those averages for individual policy years.

                                              . After we've deducted the charges and fund expenses described in the
                                                assumptions above, the illustrated gross annual investment rates of return of
                                                0%, 6% and 12% correspond to approximate net annual rates of return of -.77%,
                                                5.18%, and 11.14% for illustrations 1 through 12 and -.72%, 5.24%, and 11.19%
                                                for illustrations 13 and 14.

                                              . The amounts shown would be different if unisex insurance rates were used or if
                                                the people insured by the policy were females and insurance rates for females
                                                were used.

                                              . For the illustrations that assume current cost of insurance rates, the amounts
                                                shown would be different if either person insured by the policy was a smoker
                                                and rates for smokers were used.

                                              . The fund expenses used in the illustrations do not include foreign taxes.
                                                Here's what foreign taxes were for the year ended December 31, 1998:

                             DISTRIBUTION AGREEMENT

AGREEMENT made this ____ day of ____________, 199__, by and between Pacific Life
& Annuity Company, an Arizona Corporation, "PL&A" on its own behalf and on
behalf of the segregated asset accounts of PL&A listed on Exhibit A to this
Agreement (the "Separate Accounts"), and Pacific Mutual Distributors, Inc., a
California corporation, ("PMD").

WHEREAS, PL&A has established and maintains the Separate Accounts, a separate
investment account, for the purpose of selling variable life contracts
("Contracts") to commence after the effectiveness of the Registration Statement
relating thereto filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on form S-6,
or any successor form thereto, pursuant to the Securities Act of 1933, as
amended (the "1933 Act"), through PMD, acting as general agent of PL&A;

WHEREAS, the Separate Accounts are registered as a unit investment trust under
the Investment Company Act of 1940 ("the 1940 Act");

WHEREAS, PMD is registered as a broker-dealer under the Securities Exchange Act
of 1934 (the "Securities Exchange Act") and is a member of the National
Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. ("NASD"); and

WHEREAS, PL&A desires to retain PMD as the Distributor and Principal Underwriter
to provide for the sale and distribution to the public of the Contracts issued
by PL&A and funded by interests in the General Account of PL&A and in the
Separate Accounts and PMD is willing to render such services;

NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual promises and covenants hereinafter
set forth, the parties agree as follows:

1.   Principal Underwriter.  PL&A hereby appoints PMD, during the term
     ---------------------
     of this Agreement, subject to the registration requirements of the 1933 Act
     and the 1940 Act and the provisions of the Securities Exchange Act, to be
     the Distributor and Principal Underwriter for the sale of Contracts to the
     public in each state and other jurisdictions in which the Contracts may be
     lawfully sold. PL&A also appoints PMD as its independent General Agent for
     sale of its Contracts (including any riders which PL&A may make available
     in connection therewith or any contracts for which the Contracts may be
     exchanged or converted) and for sale of such other insurance contracts or
     annuity contracts as PL&A may, from time to time, authorize in writing by
     amendment thereto. PMD shall offer the Contracts for sale and distribution
     at premium rates set by PL&A.

2.   Selling Agreements.  PMD is hereby authorized to enter into separate
     ------------------
     written agreements, on such terms and conditions as PMD determines are not
     inconsistent with this Agreement, with such organizations which agree to
     participate as a general agent and/or broker-dealer in the distribution of
     the Contracts and to use their best efforts to solicit applications for
<PAGE>

     Contracts. Any such broker-dealer (hereinafter "Broker") shall be both
     registered as a broker-dealer under the Securities Exchange Act and a
     member of the NASD. PMD shall be responsible for ensuring that Broker and
     its agents or representatives and general agent and its sub-agents
     soliciting applications for Contracts shall be duly and appropriately
     licensed, registered and otherwise qualified for the sale of the Contracts
     (and the riders and other contracts offered in connection therewith) under
     the insurance laws and any applicable blue sky laws of each state or other
     jurisdiction in which such policies may be lawfully sold and in which PL&A
     is licensed to sell such Contracts. PL&A shall undertake to appoint
     Broker's qualified agents or representatives and general agent's sub-agents
     as life insurance agents of PL&A, provided that PL&A reserves the right to
     refuse to appoint any proposed representative, agent, or sub-agent or once
     appointed, to terminate such appointment. PMD shall be responsible for
     ensuring that Broker and general agent supervise its agents,
     representatives, or sub-agents.

     PMD is also authorized to enter into separate written agreements, on such
     terms and conditions as PMD determines are not inconsistent with this
     Agreement, with such organizations ("wholesalers") that agree to
     participate in the distribution of the Contracts and to use their best
     efforts to solicit Brokers and general agents that, in turn, will solicit
     applications of the Contracts.

3.   Life Insurance Agents.  PL&A shall be responsible for ensuring that Broker
     ---------------------
     and its agents or representatives and general agent and its sub-agents meet
     all qualifications and hold any licenses or authorizations that may be
     required for the solicitation or sale of the Contracts under the insurance
     laws of the applicable jurisdictions.

4.   Suitability.  PL&A desires to ensure that Contracts will be sold to
     -----------

     information furnished to a representative or sub-agent after reasonable
     inquiry of such applicant concerning the applicant's other security
     holdings, insurance and investment objectives, financial situation and
     needs, and the likelihood that the applicant will continue to make any

     party") of notice of the commencement of any action, if a claim for
     indemnification in respect thereof is to be made against PL&A or PMD
     ("indemnifying party") such indemnified party will notify indemnifying
     party in writing of the commencement thereof, but failure to notify the
     indemnifying party of any claim shall not relieve it from any liability
     which it may have to the person against whom such action is brought
     otherwise than on account of this agreement contained in this Section 13.
     The indemnifying party will be entitled to participate in the defense of
     the indemnified party and such participation will not relieve such

                      VARIABLE CONTRACT SELLING AGREEMENT


     This Agreement ("Agreement") is made as of _______________________, 19__ by
and among PACIFIC LIFE & ANNUITY COMPANY ("PL&A"), PACIFIC MUTUAL DISTRIBUTORS,
INC. ("Distributor"), a broker/dealer registered with the Securities and
Exchange Commission ("SEC") pursuant to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as
amended ("Exchange Act"), and a member of the National Association of Securities
Dealers, Inc. ("NASD"), _____________________________________ ("Broker/Dealer"),
and each undersigned agency (jointly and severally referred to herein as
"Agency"); Broker/Dealer and Agency jointly and severally hereinafter referred
to collectively as "Selling Entities".

     This Agreement is for the purpose of providing for the distribution of
certain variable life insurance policies and/or annuity contracts set forth in
Schedule A hereto and of any successor additional SEC registered insurance
products (as discussed in Paragraph [3] of this Agreement) issued by PL&A and
distributed by Distributor through representatives who are both (a) state
insurance licensed and appointed agents of PL&A and associated with the Agency
and (b) NASD registered representatives of Broker/Dealer who are appropriately
licensed both with the NASD and with the relevant states. The variable life
insurance and/or annuity contracts set forth in Schedule A hereto, as such
Schedule may be amended and/or restated from time to time to include any
successor or additional SEC registered insurance products, and together with any
riders to such contracts, are referred to collectively herein as the
"Contracts".

1.   APPOINTMENT

     In consideration of the mutual promises and covenants contained in this
Agreement, PL&A and Distributor appoint Broker/Dealer and those persons
associated with Agency who are NASD registered representatives of Broker/Dealer
and state insurance licensed agents of PL&A to solicit and procure applications
for the Contracts.

     These appointments are not deemed to be exclusive in any manner and extend
only to those jurisdictions, set forth in Schedule B hereto as such Schedule B
may be amended from time to time by PL&A in its sole discretion, where
the Contracts specified in such Schedule B have been approved for sale.

     From time to time, PL&A will provide Selling Entities with information
regarding the jurisdictions in which PL&A is authorized to solicit applications
for the Contracts and any limitations on the availability of such Contracts in
any jurisdiction.

2.   RESPONSIBILITIES

     Broker/Dealer is authorized to collect the premium on the Contracts and
must remit such premiums to PL&A in the manner set forth in the applicable
Compensation Schedule set forth in one of the Schedule Ds. Contract applications

sole property of PL&A and must be promptly delivered to PL&A. All applications
are subject to acceptance by PL&A at its sole discretion.

3.   NEW PRODUCTS

     Distributor may propose and PL&A may issue additional or successor
products, in which event Broker/Dealer will be informed of the new product and
its related Compensation Schedule. If Broker/Dealer does not agree to distribute
such new product(s), it must notify PL&A in writing within 30 days of receipt of
the Compensation Schedule for such new product(s). If Broker/Dealer does not
indicate disapproval of the new product(s) or the terms contained in its related
Compensation Schedule, Broker/Dealer will be deemed to have thereby agreed (a)
to distribute such new product(s) and agreed to its related Compensation
Schedule, which shall be attached to and made a part of this Agreement as an
amendment or addendum to the applicable Schedule D, or as

discretion to terminate the appointment of any Subagent upon notice from PL&A to

directly or indirectly, in the solicitation of any application for any Contract
unless, at the time of such solicitation or aid, such Subagent is appropriately
licensed for such product under applicable insurance laws and is an NASD
registered representative of Broker/Dealer.

     Selling Entities each represent that they have, for each Subagent,
fulfilled all requirements set forth in the form of general letter of
recommendation set forth in Schedule C hereto; and agree, upon reasonable
request by PL&A, to furnish proof of such fulfillment as PL&A may require.

any such compensation. Neither Broker/Dealer nor Agency may offset, against any
such indebtedness, any compensation accruing under this Agreement.

other federal or state statutory law or regulation, at common law or otherwise,
insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect
thereof) arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue
statement of a material fact or any omission or alleged omission to state a

with an incomplete application), including, without limitation, reasonable
attorneys' fees and expenses and any loss attributable to the investment
experience under a Contract, that any Indemnified Person may incur from
liabilities resulting or arising out of or based upon (a) any untrue or alleged
untrue statement other than statements contained in the registration statement
or prospectus relating to any Contract, (b) (i) any inaccurate or misleading, or

Distributor, has been disapproved, in writing by either of them, for further
use, or (c) any act or omission of a Subagent, director, officer or employee of

organization. This bond shall be maintained at Broker/Dealer's and/or Agency's
expense. Such bond shall be at least equivalent to the minimal coverage required

annuity transactions. Selling Entities acknowledge that PL&A may require
evidence that such coverage is in force, and Broker/Dealer or Agency shall
promptly give notice to PL&A of any notice of cancellation or change of
coverage.

                                       4
<PAGE>

     Selling Entities each assign any proceeds received from the fidelity bond
company, error and omissions or other liability coverage, to PL&A to the extent
of PL&A's loss due to activities covered by the bond. If there is any
deficiency, Selling Entities will promptly pay PL&A the amount of such
deficiency on demand. Selling Entities each shall indemnify and hold harmless
PL&A from any such deficiency and from the cost of collection.

representative or of any other employee or affiliate of any Selling Entities.

     This Agreement may be terminated by any party for any reason upon 10 days'

and belongs exclusively to Distributor.  Selling Entities agree that they will
not disclose any information concerning Distributor programs or services to any
person, for consideration or otherwise, unless (a) PL&A or Distributor has
authorized such disclosure in writing or (b) if such disclosure is expressly
required by state or federal regulatory authorities and PL&A and Distributor
have received notice, in writing, of such disclosure. Selling Entities agree
further that, following termination of this Agreement for any reason, they will
not solicit or otherwise contact any Contract owner for any reason except as
expressly agreed in writing by Distributor or PL&A.

     16.11  Entire Agreement

     This Agreement shall constitute the entire agreement among the parties and
supersedes all prior agreements and understandings, whether written or verbal.

financially responsible and is worthy of a license. Our inquiries and
investigations were sufficient to meet the requirements of requisite state

and to hold himself out in good faith to the general public. We vouch for each
applicant.

applicant.  We have fulfilled all the necessary investigative requirements for
the registration of each applicant as a registered representative through our

6.   We certify that each applicant will receive close and adequate supervision,
and that we will make inspection when needed of any or all risks written by
these applicants, to the end that the insurance interest of the public will be

                             Variable Account Cash Surrender Values may increase or decrease depending upon

                             The amount and duration of the death benefit may be fixed or variable depending
                             upon investment experience of the Variable Accounts.

P98-52                              Page 5                                    NY
<PAGE>

You, your or Owner -- refers to the Owner of this policy.


                             OWNER AND BENEFICIARY

Owner -- The Owner of this policy is as shown in the Policy Specifications or in
a later Written Request. If there are two or more Owners, they will own this
contract as joint tenants with right of survivorship.

Assignment -- You may assign this policy by Written Request.  An assignment will
take place only when recorded at our Service Center.  When recorded, the
assignment will take effect as of the date the Written Request was signed.  Any
rights created by the assignment will be subject to any payments made or actions
taken by us before the change is recorded.  We will not be responsible for the
validity of any assignment.

Beneficiary -- The beneficiary is named by you in the application to receive the
death benefit proceeds.  The interest of any beneficiary will be subject to any
assignment.

You may make a change of beneficiary by Written Request on a form provided by us
while the Insured is living.  The change will take place as of the date the
request is signed.  Any rights created by the change will be subject to any
payments made or actions taken by us before the Written Request is received.
You may designate a permanent beneficiary whose rights under the policy cannot
be changed without his or her consent.

The interest of a beneficiary who does not survive to receive payment will pass
to the surviving beneficiaries in proportion to their share in the proceeds,
unless otherwise provided.  If no beneficiaries survive to receive payment, the
death proceeds will pass to the Owner, or the Owner's estate if the Owner does
not survive to receive payment.


                                    PREMIUMS

Premiums -- This policy will not be in force until the initial premium is paid.
The initial premium is payable either at our Service Center or to our agent.
Additional premiums, if any, are payable in advance at our Service Center.  At
your request, a premium receipt signed by one of our officers will be given to
you. No premium may be less than $50.  Premiums may be paid at any time before
the Insured attains Age 100, subject to the premium limitations below.

Premium Allocation Before the Free Look Transfer Date -- Any Net Premium
received before the Free Look Transfer Date will be allocated to the Money
Market Variable Account on the issue date or, if later, the date the premium is
received and accepted by us. On the Free Look Transfer Date, the Accumulated
Value in the Money Market Variable Account will be allocated to the Investment
Options according to the premium allocation specified in the application or your
most recent instructions received by us, if any.

Premium Allocation On or After the Free Look Transfer Date -- Any Net Premium
received by us on or after the Free Look Transfer Date will be allocated to the
Investment Options according to the premium allocation specified in the
application or your most recent instructions received by us, if any.

Upon Written Request, you may change the premium allocation.  Subsequently, Net
Premiums will be allocated to the Investment Options according to your most
recent instructions.

Premium Limitation -- We reserve the right to require evidence of insurability,
satisfactory to us, for any premium payment that would result in an immediate
increase in the difference between the death benefit and the Accumulated Value.

P98-52                              Page 6                                    NY
<PAGE>

Guideline Premium Limitation -- (This subsection applies only if you have
elected the Guideline Premium Test.) For this policy to be treated as life
insurance under the Code, the sum of premiums paid less a portion of any
withdrawals, as defined in the Code, may not exceed the greater of:

 .   The Guideline Single Premium; or
 .   The sum of the Guideline Level Premiums to the date of payment.

The amounts of the Guideline Premiums are shown on the Policy Specification
pages.  The Guideline Premiums will change whenever there is a change in the
Face Amount of insurance or in other policy benefits.  Such Guideline Premium
change will be shown in the supplemental schedule of benefits and premiums.

Qualification as Life Insurance - (This subsection applies only if you have
elected the Guideline Premium Test.)  The Guideline Premiums are determined by
the rules set forth in the Internal Revenue Code Section 7702.  The Guideline
Premiums will be adjusted to conform to any changes in the Code.  In the event
that a premium payment would exceed these limits, we will refund the excess
premium, including any associated premium load, within 60 days of the next
policy anniversary.  If any such refunds are made, we will adjust the amount
payable for interest, and recalculate policy values as if the excess premium had
never been paid.

Modified Endowment Contract (MEC) Premium Limitation -- In order for this policy
to avoid being treated as a MEC, the sum of premiums paid less a portion of any
withdrawals may not exceed the 7-Pay limit as defined in the Internal Revenue
Code Section 7702(a). In the event that a premium payment would exceed the 7-Pay
limit, we will refund the excess premium to you, including any associated
premium load,  within 60 days of the next policy anniversary, unless you have
previously notified us in writing that such payments may be accepted by us and
applied to the policy.  If any such refunds are made, we will adjust the amount
payable for interest, and recalculate policy values as if the excess premium had
never been paid.


                                 DEATH BENEFIT

Death Benefit -- This policy provides a death benefit on the death of the
Insured. The death benefit, Death Benefit Option and the two Death Benefit
Qualification Tests are described in this section. On the date of death, the
death benefit is calculated as the larger of:

 .    The Guideline Minimum Death Benefit calculated under the Death Benefit
     Qualification Test elected; and
 .    The death benefit as calculated under the Death Benefit Option in effect.

Death Benefit Qualification Test -- Unless you have elected otherwise, the Death
Benefit Qualification Test for this policy is the Guideline Premium Test. The
Death Benefit Qualification Test for this policy appears in the Policy
Specifications section. The Death Benefit Qualification Test may not be changed
for the life of the contract. The two Death Benefit Qualification Tests are
explained in this subsection.

1.   Cash Value Accumulation Test -- The Guideline Minimum Death Benefit will be
     the greater of the amount required for this policy to be deemed "life
     insurance" according to the Code or 101% of the Accumulated Value. Such
     required amount will be equal to the AV divided by the Net Single Premium
     (NSP), as defined in Code Section 7702(b). The NSP for each attained age,
     based on the policy as issued, is shown in the Table of NSP's in the Policy
     Specifications pages. If there are changes to the policy, the NSP's may
     also change. If they do change, we will send you a supplemental schedule of
     NSP's.

2.   Guideline Premium Test -- The Guideline Minimum Death Benefit at any time
     is the Accumulated Value multiplied by the death benefit Percentage shown
     in the following table:

</TABLE>

We reserve the right to reduce the Guideline Minimum Death Benefit by requiring
distributions be made in order to maintain the Net Amount at Risk at a level
that will not exceed three times the Face Amount on the Policy Date.  The
distribution will be equal to the change in Accumulated Value plus premium load
rate calculated on the amount of the distribution, provided that the amount
related to the premium load rate will never exceed the total amount of premium
load paid under the policy.  No surrender charge will be imposed.

Qualification as Life Insurance - This policy is intended to qualify as a life
insurance contract under the Internal Revenue Code Section 7702, and the death
benefit under this policy is intended to qualify for income tax exclusion under
the Code.  To that end, the provisions of this policy, including any other
rider, benefit or endorsement, are to be interpreted to ensure such tax
qualification, notwithstanding any other provisions to the contrary.  Any
mandatory removal of funds from the Accumulated Value initiated by us and not by
you will be treated as a premium refund.  The premium load will be refunded up
to the total premium load paid under the policy and no surrender charges will be
imposed.

If premiums paid under this policy exceed the Guideline Premium limitation, if
applicable, and if the excess is greater than the premiums paid in the current
policy year, we will, within 60 days of the next anniversary, make a
distribution of the difference between such excess and the premiums paid in such
policy year.  For any such distribution, the face amount will not be reduced and
no surrender charge will be imposed.  In such case, we will also refund the
premiums paid in the current year as provided for the in the Premiums section.

If we do not make such a distribution within 60 days of your next policy
anniversary, then we will increase the death benefit under this policy on or
before the date the premium was paid.  The death benefit will be increased to
the amount necessary to ensure tax qualification.  We will then reduce the
Accumulated Value from the date of the increase to the current date to reflect
the increased Monthly Deductions during the period.

MEC Rules -- Unless you have instructed us differently in writing, it is
intended that this policy will not be treated as a MEC under Internal Revenue
Code Section 7702(a). To that end, the provisions of this policy, including any
other rider, benefit or endorsement, are to be interpreted to prevent the policy
from being subject to such treatment, notwithstanding any other provisions to
the contrary. Any mandatory removal of funds from the Accumulated Value
initiated by us and not by you will be treated as a premium refund.  The premium
load will be refunded up to the total premium load paid under the policy and no
surrender charges will be imposed.

Unless you specify to us by Written Request, any request that would change the
death benefits under the policy and riders will not be processed if the change
would cause the policy to be treated as a MEC under the Code.  Such changes
include a reduction in the face amount, a change in death benefit option, and a
reduction in face amount due to a Withdrawal.

P98-52                              Page 8                                    NY
<PAGE>

If such a change would result in the policy not qualifying as a MEC and the
excess of the premiums paid over the 7-Pay limit is greater than the premiums
paid in the current year, we will, unless you instruct us by Written Request to
the contrary, increase the death benefit under this policy on or before the date
the limit was exceeded.  The death benefit will be increased to the amount
necessary to ensure qualification as a non-MEC.  We will then reduce the
Accumulated Value from the date of the increase to the current date to reflect
the increased Monthly Deductions during the period.  In addition, we will also
refund the premiums paid in the current year as provided for in the Premiums
section.

Death Benefit Options -- There are three Death Benefit Options, as described in
this subsection.  You have elected the Death Benefit Option in the application.
The Death Benefit Option for this policy appears in the Policy Specifications.

 .  Option A -- The death benefit equals the Face Amount.
 .  Option B -- The death benefit equals the Face Amount plus the Accumulated
   Value on the date of death.
 .  Option C -- The death benefit is the Face Amount plus the sum of the premiums
   paid minus the sum of any withdrawals taken and any other distribution of the
   Accumulated Value to the date of death. If the sum of the withdrawals is
   greater than the sum of the premiums paid, then the death benefit will be
   less than the Face Amount.

The Death Benefit Option may be changed to Option A or B upon Written Request a
maximum of once per year.  Changes to Option C are not permitted.  After any
such change, the Face Amount will be that amount which results in the death
benefit after the change being equal to the death benefit before the change.
The change will be effective on the Monthly Payment Date on or next following
the day we receive your Written Request at our Service Center.

Unless specified otherwise by you in writing, any request for a Death Benefit
Option change will not be processed if the option change would cause the policy
to be treated as a MEC under the Code.

Death Benefit Proceeds -- The death benefit proceeds are the actual amount
payable if the Insured dies while this policy is in force. The death benefit
proceeds are equal to the death benefit, as of the date of the Insured's death,
less any Policy Debt and less any due and unpaid monthly deductions occurring
during a grace period.

We will pay the death benefit proceeds to the beneficiary after we receive, at
our Service Center, due proof of the Insured's death and such other information
as we may reasonably require.  The death benefit proceeds paid are subject to
the conditions and adjustments defined in other policy provisions, such as
General Provisions, Withdrawals and Policy Loans. We will pay interest on Death
Benefit Proceeds from the date of death to the date payment is made at a rate of
interest not less than the guaranteed interest rate used for the Fixed Options
under this policy.  If state law requires payment of a greater amount of
interest, we will pay that amount.

Face Amount Change -- Subject to our approval, the Owner may change the Face
Amount if such request is made:
 .   during the lifetime of the Insured;
 .   no more often than once in any policy year; and
 .   on your Written Request while this policy is in force.

Face Amount Increase -- The effective date of the increased Face Amount will be
the first Monthly Payment Date on or following the date all applicable
conditions are met.  A supplemental schedule of benefits and premiums will be
issued.  This schedule will include:
 .   the risk class;
 .   the effective date;
 .   the M&E Risk Charges;
 .   the Surrender Charges;
 .   the guaranteed Cost of Insurance Rates;
 .   the amount of the increase and the total Face Amount after the increase; and

P98-52                              Page 9                                    NY
<PAGE>

 .   if the Guideline Premium Test is used, the new Guideline Premiums.

We reserve the right to charge a fee not to exceed $100 for each increase.  Any
such fee will be deducted from the Accumulated Value of the Fixed and the
Variable Accounts in the proportion that each bears to the Accumulated Value
less Policy Debt on the effective date of the increase.  For any increase in
Face Amount which arises from conversion of a term rider, we will waive the
Surrender Charges and M&E Risk Face Amount Charges that would otherwise apply
for the increase.

Limits on Face Amount Increase -- An increase in Face Amount will be allowed
only if it results in a death benefit increase no less than our minimum limit in
effect on the date of the request. Also, an increase will not be allowed if
there has been a prior decrease in Face Amount, including any decrease which
occurred as a result of a Withdrawal.

Face Amount Decrease -- We recommend you consult your tax advisor before
requesting a decrease in policy Face Amount.  You may not decrease the Face
Amount before the fifth anniversary of the effective date of the associated
coverage.  The effective date of the decreased Face Amount will be the first
Monthly Payment Date on or following the date we receive the Written Request.
Existing insurance will be decreased or eliminated in the following order:
 .   first, the most recent increase;
 .   second, the next most recent increases successively; and
 .   finally, the original Face Amount.

A supplemental schedule of benefits and premiums will be issued.  This schedule
will include the following information:
 .   the effective date of the decreased Face Amount;
 .   the amount of the decrease and the decreased Face Amount; and
 .   if the Death Benefit Qualification is the Guideline Premium Test, the new
    Guideline Premiums.

If the Guideline Premium Test has been elected as the Death Benefit
Qualification Test, the request for a decrease in the Face Amount will be
subject to the Guideline Premiums Limitation as defined in the Code. This may
result in a refund of premiums and/or the distribution of Accumulated Value in
order to maintain compliance with such limitations.  Such request will not be
allowed if the resulting Guideline Premiums could cause an amount greater than
the Net Cash Surrender Value to be distributed from the policy.

Unless specified otherwise by you in writing, no request for a face amount
decrease will be processed if the decrease would cause the policy to be treated
as a MEC under the Code.

Paid-Up Insurance -- At any time you may use the Net Cash Surrender Value to
purchase guaranteed fixed paid-up insurance on the life of the Insured.  At the
time of conversion, the Net Cash Surrender Value will be transferred to our
general account.  The amount of paid-up insurance is determined by applying the
Net Cash Surrender Value as the net single premium based upon the Insured's Age
and Risk Classification, 1980 CSO mortality and 3% interest.  Any riders
attached to the policy will terminate at the time of conversion.  Such paid-up
insurance may be surrendered at any time, with the cash surrender value being
determined on the same basis.


                               ACCUMULATED VALUE

Accumulated Value (AV) -- is the sum of the Fixed Accumulated Value plus the
Variable Accumulated Value plus the Loan Account and any interest credited to
it.

Fixed Accumulated Value -- The Fixed Accumulated Value is the sum of the
Accumulated Value in each Fixed Option as of the last Valuation Period.

This subsection describes how we calculate the Accumulated Value in each Fixed
Option.  We credit interest on a daily basis using a 365-day year and at a rate
not less than an annual effective rate of

P98-52                              Page 10                                   NY
<PAGE>

3.00% in the first 10 policy years and 3.30% thereafter.  At our discretion, we
may credit a higher rate of interest.  The Accumulated Value for each Fixed
Option on any date is the following, including interest on each:

 .   the Accumulated Value for the Fixed Option on the prior Monthly Payment
    Date;
 .   plus the amount of any Net Premium received and allocated to the Fixed
    Option since the last Monthly Payment Date;
 .   plus the amount of any transfer to the Fixed Option, including transfers
    from the Loan Account, since the last Monthly Payment Date;
 .   minus the monthly deduction and other deductions due, if any, and assessed
    against the Fixed Option; and
 .   minus the amount of any withdrawals, or transfers from the Fixed Option,
    including transfers to the Loan Account, since the last Monthly Payment
    Date.

Variable Accumulated Value -- The Variable Accumulated Value is the sum of the
Accumulated Value in each Variable Account.

This subsection describes how we calculate the Accumulated Value in each of the
Variable Accounts.  Assets in each Variable Account are divided into
Accumulation Units, which are a measure of value used for bookkeeping purposes.
We credit your policy with Accumulation Units in each Variable Account as a
result of:

 .   the amount of any Net Premium received and allocated to the Variable
    Account; and
 .   transfers of Accumulated Value to the Variable Account, including transfers
    from the Loan Account.

We debit Accumulation Units in each Variable Account as a result of:

 .   transfers from the Variable Account, including transfers to the Loan
    Account;
 .   Surrenders and withdrawals from the Variable Account; and
 .   the monthly deduction and other deductions due, if any, and assessed against
    the Variable Account.

To determine the number of Accumulation Units debited or credited for a
transaction, we divide the dollar amount of the transaction by the Unit Value of
the affected Variable Account.

To determine your Accumulated Value in each Variable Account, we multiply the
number of Accumulation Units in the Variable Account by the Unit Value of the
Variable Account. The number of Accumulation Units in each Variable Account will
not change because of subsequent changes in Unit Value.

At the inception of each Variable Account the Unit Value was $10.  The Unit
Value of each Variable Account is determined on each Valuation Date.  To
calculate the Unit Value of a Variable Account on any Valuation Date, we adjust
the Unit Value from the previous Valuation Date for a number of factors,
including:

 .   any dividends or distributions paid to the Variable Account;
 .   the investment performance of the Variable Account, which is based on the
    investment performance of the corresponding portfolio and includes expenses
    related to the portfolio's management;
 .   charges, if any, that may be assessed by us for income taxes attributable to
    the operation of the Variable Account.

Loan Account -- The Loan Account is the amount set aside to secure Policy Debt.
The amount in the Loan Account on any date is the following, including interest
on each:

P98-52                              Page 11                                   NY
<PAGE>

 .   the amount in the Loan Account on the prior anniversary;
 .   plus any loan taken since the prior anniversary; and
 .   minus any loan amount repaid since the prior anniversary.

We will credit interest to the Loan Account on a daily basis using a 365-day
year and at a rate equivalent to an annual effective rate of 3.00% in the first
10 policy years, and 3.30% thereafter.  On each policy anniversary, any interest
earned and held in the Loan Account will be transferred to the Investment
Options in accordance with your most recent premium allocation instructions.

Monthly Deduction -- A Monthly Deduction for a policy month is due on each
Monthly Payment Date and is equal to the sum of the following items:

 .   the monthly Cost of Insurance Charge;
 .   the M&E Risk Charge;
 .   the Administrative Charge, if any; and
 .   rider charges, if any.

Unless you have made a Written Request to the contrary, the Monthly Deduction
will be charged proportionately to the Accumulated Value in each Variable
Account and each Fixed Option on the Monthly Payment Date.

Cost of Insurance Charge -- Beginning on the Policy Date and monthly thereafter,
there will be a charge equal to the Cost of Insurance applicable to the
following:

 .   the initial Face Amount; plus
 .   each increase in the Face Amount.

The monthly Cost of Insurance Charge for the death benefit payable under this
policy, is (1) multiplied by (2), where:

    (1) is the applicable monthly Cost of Insurance Rate; and
    (2) is the Net Amount at Risk.

Net Amount at Risk -- The Net Amount at Risk is equal to the death benefit as of
the most recent Monthly Payment Date divided by 1.002466, then reduced by the
Accumulated Value at the beginning of the policy month before the Monthly
Deduction is due.

If there have been increases of Face Amount, then the Net Amount at Risk will be
proportionately allocated to each increase according to the Face Amount of each
increase in force as of the Monthly Payment Date.

Cost of Insurance Rates -- The Cost of Insurance Rates are based on a number of
factors, including the Insured's Age, Risk Classification and the policy
duration.  Part of the cost is intended to recover acquisition expenses at
issue.  Such expenses are greater in the early policy years.  The current
monthly Cost of Insurance Rates will be determined by us.  These rates will not
exceed the Guaranteed Maximum Monthly Cost of Insurance Rates shown in the
Policy Specifications.

Change in Policy Cost Factors -- Any change in policy cost factors, including
interest, cost of insurance rates, expense charges and loads, will be by class
and based on changes in our expectations of future investment earnings,
mortality, persistency and expenses.  Any such change will be determined in
accordance with procedures and standards on file with the Insurance Department
of the state in which this policy is delivered.

M&E Risk Charge -- The Mortality and Expense Risk Charge (M&E Risk Charge) is to
compensate us for the risk we assume that mortality, expenses and other costs of
providing your policy will be greater than estimated.  Beginning on the Policy
Date and monthly thereafter, the M&E Risk Charge will be

P98-52                              Page 12                                   NY
<PAGE>

the sum of the M&E Risk Asset Charge and the M&E Risk Face Amount Charge. These
are calculated as follows:

The M&E Risk Asset Charge is a percentage of the Variable Accumulated Value.  In
the first 10 policy years, the charge is 0.0625% (0.75% annually) of the first
$25,000 of Variable Accumulated Value plus a charge of 0.0292% (0.35% annually)
of the Variable Accumulated Value above $25,000.  After the 10th policy year,
the charge is 0.0375% (0.45% annually) of the first $25,000 of Variable
Accumulated Value plus a charge of 0.0042 (0.05% annually) of the Variable
Accumulated Value above $25,000.  After the Insured's Age 100, the charge is
zero.

The M&E Risk Face Amount Charge is the amount shown in the Policy
Specifications, and is based on the Face Amount at policy issue.  If there have
been increases in the Face Amount, each increase will have a corresponding M&E
Risk Face Amount Charge related to the amount of the increase.  These charges
will be specified in the supplemental schedule of benefits at the time of the
increase.

Administrative Charge -- Beginning on the Policy Date and monthly thereafter,
there will be an Administrative Charge against the Accumulated Value.  The
amount of this charge will equal the amount shown in the Policy Specifications.

Premium Load -- A Premium Load will be charged each time that a premium is paid
to cover certain local, state and federal tax and certain sales and distribution
costs. The Premium Load will equal the premium paid multiplied by the Premium
Load rate shown in the Policy Specifications. The Premium Load associated with
each premium will be immediately deducted from the premium paid. We reserve the
right to increase the Premium Load with respect to the charge for local, state
and federal tax. We will only increase the Premium Load if the effective
tax paid by us increases. We will notify you of any such change.

Other Taxes -- In addition to the charges imposed under Premium Load and
elsewhere, we reserve the right to make a charge for Federal, state or local
taxes that may be attributable to the Variable Accounts or to our operations
with respect to this policy if we incur any such taxes.

Grace Period and Lapse -- If the Accumulated Value less Policy Debt on a Monthly
Payment Date is not sufficient to cover the current monthly deduction, a grace
period of 61 days will be allowed for the payment of sufficient premium to keep
your policy in force.

The grace period begins on the Monthly Payment Date on which the insufficiency
occurred and ends 61 days thereafter.  At the start of the grace period, we will
send notice to you at your last known address and to any assignee of record.
The notice will state the due date and the amount of premium required for your
policy to remain in force.  A minimum of three times the monthly deduction due
when the insufficiency occurred, plus Premium Load, must be paid.  Premiums we
receive during the grace period will be applied to your policy according to your
most recent premium allocation instructions.  There is no penalty for paying a
premium during the grace period.  Your policy will remain in force during the
grace period.  If sufficient premium is not paid by the end of the grace period,
a lapse will occur. Thirty days prior to lapse, we will send you and any
assignee of record a notice containing the lapse date and the required premium
to keep your policy in force. If the Insured dies during the grace period, the
death benefit proceeds will be reduced by any overdue charges.  Upon lapse, the
policy will terminate with no value.

Reinstatement -- If it has not been surrendered, this policy may be reinstated
not more than five years after the end of the grace period. To reinstate this
policy you must provide us with the following:

 .   a written application;
 .   evidence of insurability satisfactory to us;
 .   payment of sufficient premium to cover all monthly deductions that were due
    and unpaid during the grace period; plus
 .   payment of sufficient premium to keep the policy in force for three months
    after the date of reinstatement.

P98-52                              Page 13                                   NY
<PAGE>

The effective date of the reinstated policy will be the first Monthly Payment
Date on or following the date we approve your reinstatement application.  When
this policy is reinstated, the Accumulated Value will be equal to the
Accumulated Value on the date of lapse subject to the following.  If the policy
is reinstated after the first Monthly Payment Date following lapse, the
Accumulated Value will be reduced by the amount of any Policy Debt on the date
of lapse.  If the policy is reinstated on the first Monthly Payment Date
following lapse, any Policy Debt on the date of lapse will also be reinstated,
with the corresponding portion of the Accumulated Value allocated to the Loan
Account as described in the Policy Loan provision.


                                   TRANSFERS

Transfers -- After your initial Net Premium has been allocated according to your
instructions and while your policy is in force, you may, upon Written Request,
transfer your Accumulated Value, or a part of it, among the Investment Options
as provided in this section.  No transfer may be made if the policy is in a
grace period and the required premium has not been paid.

Transfers from the Fixed Account:  One transfer from the Fixed Account may be
made in any twelve-month period.  Transfers from the Fixed Account will be
limited to the greater of $5,000 or 25% of the Accumulated Value in the Fixed
Account.

Transfers from the Fixed LT Account:  One transfer from the Fixed LT Account may
be made in any twelve month period.  Transfers from the Fixed LT Account will be
limited to the greater of $5,000 or 10% of the Accumulated Value in the Fixed LT
Account.

Transfers into the Fixed Options:  Except during the first 18 policy months
during which transfers into the Fixed Account are unlimited (see below),
transfers into the Fixed Options may be made only during the policy month
preceding the policy anniversary.

Allocations into the Fixed LT Account:  We reserve the right to limit the amount
allocated to the Fixed LT Account to $1,000,000 during the most recent 12 months
for all policies owned by you.  Allocations include Net Premium payments,
transfers and loan repayments.  Any excess over $1,000,000 will be transferred
to your other Investment Options relative to your most recent instructions.  We
may increase the $1,000,000 limit at any time at our sole discretion.  You may
contact us to find out if a higher limit is in effect.

Transfer into the Fixed Account Unlimited Under Special Circumstances:  You may
transfer from any Variable Account to the Fixed Account with no limitation under
the following circumstances:
 .   For a period of time, as described below, after a material change in the
    investment policy of that Variable Account; and
 .   During the first 18 policy months as long as this policy is not in the grace
    period.

We will notify you if there is a material change in the investment policy of a
Variable Account.  The notice will inform you of your options, including your
option to transfer from such Variable Account to the Fixed Account within 60
days after (i) the effective date of the material change or (ii) the date we
send you the notice, whichever is later.

No charges are currently imposed for transfers.  We reserve the right:
 .   to limit the size of transfers so that each transfer is at least $500;
 .   to limit the frequency of transfers (however, at least one transfer per
    quarter will be allowed);
 .   to limit the remaining balance in any account as a result of a transfer to
    $500; and
 .   to assess a $50 charge for each transfer exceeding 12 per policy year.

P98-52                              Page 14                                   NY
<PAGE>

                       SURRENDER AND WITHDRAWAL OF VALUES

Surrender -- Upon Written Request while the Insured is living you may surrender
this policy for its Net Cash Surrender Value.  The policy will terminate on the
date the request is received.

Net Cash Surrender Value -- The Net Cash Surrender Value is the Cash Surrender
Value less any Policy Debt.

Cash Surrender Value -- The Cash Surrender Value is the Accumulated Value less
any Surrender Charge.

Surrender Charges -- A Surrender Charge will be deducted from the Accumulated
Value upon surrender of the policy.  The Surrender Charge is needed to help pay
for costs such as underwriting, policy issue and sales and distribution costs.
The initial Surrender Charge is equal to the amount shown on the Policy
Specifications pages.  This will remain level for the first policy year and then
will decrease by 0.9259% per month to zero at the 120th month.  However, the
surrender charge will never be more than the Maximum Surrender Charge that is
shown in the Policy Specifications pages.

If there have been increases in the Face Amount, each increase will have a
corresponding Surrender Charge and Maximum Surrender Charge related to the
amount of the increase.  These charges will be specified in the supplemental
schedule of benefits at the time of the increase.  If there have been decreases
in the Face Amount, including decreases in Face Amount due to withdrawals, the
Surrender Charge and Maximum Surrender Charge will be unchanged as a result of
such decrease in Face Amount.

Withdrawals -- Upon Written Request on or after the first policy anniversary
while the Insured is living, you may withdraw a portion of the Net Cash
Surrender Value of this policy. We will deduct a withdrawal fee of $25 from the
Accumulated Value for each withdrawal. The withdrawal fee will be deducted from
the Investment Options in the same proportion as the withdrawal.

Withdrawals will be subject to the following conditions:  The amount of each
withdrawal must be at least $200 and the Net Cash Surrender Value remaining
after each withdrawal must be at least $500.  Also, if there is any Policy Debt
at the time of each withdrawal, the amount of the withdrawal is limited to the
excess, if any, of the Cash Surrender Value immediately prior to the withdrawal
over the result of the Policy Debt divided by 90%.

The amount of each withdrawal will be allocated proportionately to the
Accumulated Value in the Investment Options unless you request otherwise.  If
the Insured dies after the request for a withdrawal is sent to us and prior to
the withdrawal being effected, the amount of the withdrawal will be deducted
from the death benefit proceeds, which will be determined without taking the
withdrawal into account.  Unless you request  otherwise, no withdrawal will be
processed if the withdrawal would cause the policy to be treated as a MEC.

A withdrawal will affect the death benefit, depending on the Death Benefit
Option you have chosen.  If your policy's death benefit is greater than the
Guideline Minimum Death Benefit, then the withdrawal will reduce the death
benefit by the amount of the withdrawal.  However, if your policy's death
benefit is equal to the Guideline Minimum Death Benefit, the withdrawal may
cause the death benefit to decrease by an amount greater than the amount of the
withdrawal.  For Death Benefit Option C, if the sum of the withdrawals and other
distributions from the policy is greater than the premiums, the death benefit
will be less than the Face Amount.

Withdrawals may also affect the Face Amount.  A withdrawal will reduce the Face
Amount, but only for policies having Death Benefit Option A.  In such case, a
withdrawal in excess of the difference between the Guideline Minimum Death
Benefit and the Face Amount will reduce the Face Amount by the amount of the
excess.  However, for the first withdrawal from a Death Benefit Option A policy
in

P98-52                              Page 15                                   NY
<PAGE>

each of the first 15 policy years, the Face Amount will be reduced only to the
extent that the withdrawal exceeds 10% of the premiums paid.


                        TIMING OF PAYMENTS AND TRANSFERS

Variable Accounts -- With respect to allocations made to the Variable Accounts,
we will pay death benefit proceeds, Net Cash Surrender Value on surrender,
withdrawals, and loans and will effect a transfer between Variable Accounts or
from a Variable Account to a Fixed Option within seven days after we receive all
the information needed to process the payment. However, we may postpone the
calculation, payment or transfer of any amounts that are based on the investment
performance of the Variable Accounts, if:

 .   the New York Stock Exchange is closed on other than normal weekend and
    holiday closings; or
 .   trading on the New York Stock Exchange is restricted as determined by the
    Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC); or
 .   an emergency exists, as determined by the SEC, as a result of which it is
    not reasonably practicable to determine the value of the Account assets or
    to dispose of Account securities; or
 .   The SEC by order permits postponement for the protection of securities
    owners.

Fixed Options -- With respect to allocations made to the Fixed Options, we may
defer payment of any Net Cash Surrender Value, withdrawals or loan amounts or
defer transfers from either Fixed Option for up to six months after we receive
your request.  We will allow interest, at a rate of at least 3% annually, on any
Net Cash Surrender Value or withdrawal benefit derived from a Fixed Option if we
defer payment for 30 days or more.


                                INCOME BENEFITS

Income Benefits -- Surrender or withdrawal benefits may be used to buy a
lifetime monthly income as long as the monthly income is at least $100. Death
benefits may be used to buy a monthly income for the lifetime of the
beneficiary. The monthly income will automatically be guaranteed to continue for
at least ten years, unless another form of payment is requested. Under the
automatic form of payment, if the income recipient dies before the end of the
ten-year period, payments will continue to the end of the ten-year period to a
person designated by the income recipient in writing.

The purchase rates for the monthly income will be set periodically by the
Company.  However, under the automatic form, the monthly income bought by each
$1,000 of benefit amount will always be at least as large as that shown below.

Other Income Options -- Surrender, withdrawal or death benefits may be used
under any other payment plans that we make available at that time.


                                  POLICY LOANS

Policy Loans -- You may obtain loans by Written Request after the Free Look
Period, on the sole security of the Loan Account of this policy.  We recommend
you consult your tax advisor before requesting a policy loan.

Loan Amount Available -- The amount available for a loan is equal to 90% of
Accumulated Value less any Policy Debt and also less any Surrender Charges that
would be imposed if the policy were surrendered on the date the loan is taken
or, if greater, the result of (a x b/c)-d, where:  a is the Accumulated Value
less 12 times the most recent monthly deduction less any Surrender Charge on the
date of the loan; b = 1 + the loan interest credited; c = 1.0355; and d = any
existing Policy Debt.  The amount of a loan must be at least $200.

Loan Interest -- Interest will accrue daily and is payable in arrears at the
annual rate of 3.55%.  Interest not paid when due will be added to the loan
principal and bear interest at the same rate of interest.

Loan Account -- When a loan is taken, an amount equal to the loan is transferred
out of the Accumulated Value in the Investment Options into the Loan Account to
secure the loan.  Unless you request otherwise, loan amounts will be deducted
from the Variable Accounts and the Fixed Options on a pro rata basis, up to the
amount available.  We will credit interest to the Loan Account as described in
the Accumulated Value section.

On each policy anniversary, if the amount in the Loan Account exceeds Policy
Debt, the excess will be transferred from the Loan Account to the Investment
Options according to your most recent instructions.  If Policy Debt exceeds the
amount in the Loan Account, an amount equal to such excess will be transferred
from the Investment Options on a proportionate basis to the Loan Account.

Loan Repayment -- Loans may be repaid at any time prior to lapse of this policy.
An amount equal to the portion of any loan repaid, but not more than the amount
in the Loan Account, will be transferred from the Loan Account to the Investment
Options according to your most recent instructions.  We reserve the right to
first transfer repayments from the Loan Account to each Fixed Option up to the
amount that was originally borrowed.  Any excess over such amount will be
transferred to the Variable Accounts relative to your most recent instructions.

Any payment we receive from you while you have a loan will be first considered a
loan repayment, unless you tell us in writing it is a premium payment.


                          SEPARATE ACCOUNT PROVISIONS

Separate Account -- This policy uses the Pacific Select Exec Separate Account
owned by PM Group Life Insurance Company, hereafter called the "Separate
Account".  We established the Separate Account and maintain it under the laws of
Arizona.  The Separate Account is divided into subaccounts, called Variable
Accounts.  Realized and unrealized gains and losses from the assets of each
Variable Account are credited or charged against it without regard to our other
income, gains or losses.  Assets may be put in our Separate Account to support
this policy and other variable life policies.  Assets may be put in our Separate
Account for other purposes, but not to support contracts or policies other than
variable life contracts or policies.

The assets of our Separate Account are our property.  The portion of its assets
equal to the reserves and other policy liabilities with respect to our Separate
Account will not be chargeable with liabilities arising out of any other
business we conduct.  We may transfer assets of a Variable Account in excess

P98-52                              Page 17                                   NY
<PAGE>

of the reserves and other liabilities with respect to that Variable Account to
another Variable Account or to our general account. All obligations arising
under the policy are general corporate obligations of ours. We do not hold
ourselves out to be trustees of the Separate Account assets.

Variable Accounts -- Each Variable Account may invest its assets in a separate
class of shares of a designated investment company or companies.  The Variable
Accounts of our Separate Account that were available for your initial
allocations are shown in the Policy Specifications.  From time to time, we may
make other Variable Accounts available to you.  We will provide you with written
notice of all material details including investment objectives and all charges.

We reserve the right, subject to compliance with the law then in effect, to:

 .   change or add designated investment companies;
 .   add, remove or combine Variable Accounts;
 .   add, delete or make substitutions for the securities that are held or
    purchased by the Separate Account or any Variable Account;
 .   register or deregister any Variable Account under the Investment Company Act
    of 1940;
 .   change the classification of any Variable Account;
 .   operate any Variable Account as a managed investment company or as a unit
    investment trust;
 .   combine the assets of any Variable Account with other separate accounts or
    subaccounts of ours or our affiliates;
 .   transfer the assets of any Variable Account to other separate accounts or
    subaccounts of ours or our affiliates;
 .   run any Variable Account under the direction of a committee, board, or other
    group;
 .   restrict or eliminate any voting rights of policy Owners with respect to any
    Variable Account, or other persons who have voting rights as to any Variable
    Account;
 .   change the allocations permitted under the policy;
 .   terminate and liquidate any Variable Account; and
 .   make any other change needed to comply with law.


If any of these changes result in a material change in the underlying investment
of a Variable Account of our Separate Account, we will notify you of such
change.

Unless required by law or regulation, an investment policy may not be changed
without our consent.  We will not change the investment policy of the Separate
Account without the approval of the Insurance Commissioner in the state of
Arizona and without following filing and other procedures established by
insurance regulators of the state of issue.


                            SUBSTITUTION OF INSURED

Benefit -- Subject to our approval, you may request a substitution of the
Insured under this policy for a new Insured after the first policy year. We will
require the following before we substitute the Insured:

 .   The new Insured must submit evidence of insurability satisfactory to us.
 .   You must submit a written application for the substitution.

We may adjust the Face Amount, Accumulated Value, Surrender Charge, and any
policy fees and charges to reflect the new Insured.  A revised schedule of
benefits will be sent to you outlining the benefits for the new Insured.  Riders
on the new Insured will be added only with our consent and subject to our
requirements for those riders.

If approved, the substitution will be effective on the next Monthly Payment Date
on or next following our approval.

                               GENERAL PROVISIONS

Entire Contract -- This policy is a contract between you and us. This policy,
any attached endorsements, benefits and riders and the attached copy of the
initial application are the entire contract, except as follows. Any application
or written notice of exercise of policy options made after the policy has been
issued will also become part of the contract upon our acceptance of such
application or notice and our mailing of same to your address last known to us.
Only an authorized officer is permitted to change this contract or extend the
time for paying premiums. Any such change must be in writing.

All statements in the application shall, in the absence of fraud, be deemed
representations and not warranties.  We will not use any statement to contest
this policy or defend a claim on grounds of misrepresentation unless the
statement is in an application.

Incontestability -- We will not contest this policy unless there was a material
misstatement in an application, including any reinstatement application.  Except
for failure to pay premiums, this policy cannot be contested after the
expiration of the following time periods:

 .   The initial Face Amount cannot be contested after the policy has been in
    force during the Insured's lifetime for two years from the later of the
    Policy Date or any reinstatement date; and
 .   An increase in the Face Amount, for which evidence of insurability was
    required, cannot be contested after the increased amount has been in force
    during the Insured's lifetime for two years from the later of its effective
    date or any reinstatement date.

Non-Participating  This policy will not share in any of our surplus earnings.

Juvenile Insured -- If an Insured's Age on the Policy Date is less than 20, the
Insured may apply for Nonsmoker risk status on attaining Age 20.  This option
must be requested in writing and accompanied by satisfactory evidence of
nonsmoking.

Suicide Exclusion -- If the Insured dies by suicide, while sane or insane,
within two years of the Policy Date or any reinstatement date, no death benefit
proceeds will be paid. Instead, we will return the sum of the premiums paid,
less the sum of any Policy Debt and withdrawals.

If the Insured dies by suicide, while sane or insane, within two years of the
effective date of any increase in the Face Amount, no benefit will be paid with
respect to such increase.  Instead, we will refund the Cost of Insurance Charges
made with respect to that increase.

Misstatement -- If the Insured's age is misstated in the application, the amount
of the death benefit shall be the greater of that which would be purchased by
the most recent Cost of Insurance Charge at the correct age, or the Guideline
Minimum Death Benefit for the correct age.

If the Insured's age is misstated, the Accumulated Value will be modified by
recalculating all prior Cost of Insurance charges and other monthly deductions
based on the correct age.

Reports -- A report will be mailed to you at the end of each policy quarter to
your last known address.  This report will include the following information for
the policy quarter:

 .   the Accumulated Value;
 .   the Cash Surrender Value;
 .   the current death benefit;
 .   any Surrender Charges;
 .   any existing Policy Debt;
 .   transactions that occurred during the policy quarter;
 .   changes in the Guideline Premiums, if applicable; and

P98-52                              Page 19                                   NY
<PAGE>

 .   any information required by law.

In addition to the above reports, an annual report will also be mailed to you.
The report will contain financial statements for the Separate Account and the
designated investment company or companies in which the Separate Account
invests, the latter of which will include a list of the portfolio securities of
the investment company, as required by the Investment Company Act of 1940.  We
will also send any other reports as required by Federal securities law.

Policy Illustrations -- Upon request we will give you an illustration of the
future benefits under this policy based upon both guaranteed and current cost
factor assumptions.  However, if you ask us to do this more than once in any
policy year, we reserve the right to charge you a fee not to exceed $25 per
request for this service.  Illustrated benefits that are not guaranteed, such as
benefits based on the current cost factor assumptions, will vary depending upon
a number of factors, including but not limited to, changes in future investment
performance.

Basis of Values -- A detailed statement showing how values are determined has
been filed with the state insurance department. All values are at least equal to
the minimums required by the law of the state in which this policy is delivered,
based on the Commissioner's 1980 Standard Ordinary Mortality Table and interest
at the rate of 3%, except for unisex issues which are based on the 1980 CSO
Table B and interest at the rate of 3%.

Ownership of Assets -- We have the exclusive and absolute control of our assets,
including all assets in the Separate Account.

Compliance -- We reserve the right to make any change to the provisions of this
policy to comply with, or give you the benefit of, any Federal or state statute,
rule, or regulation, including but not limited to requirements for life
insurance contracts under the Code or any state.

We will provide you with a copy of any such change, and file such a change with
the insurance supervisory official of the state in which this policy is
delivered.  You have the right to refuse any such change.

                                                                              NY

                          ANNUAL RENEWABLE TERM RIDER

INSURED - As used in this rider, "Insured" means the individual covered under
the policy.

ANNUAL RENEWABLE TERM (ART) FACE AMOUNT - The ART Face Amount provided by this
rider is shown in the Policy Specifications.

DEATH BENEFIT OPTION - This rider provides term insurance on the Insured under
this policy. This rider has no cash value, but it affects the cash value of the
policy. The death benefit of the policy to which this rider is attached is
modified to include the ART Face Amount under this rider. It is now as follows:
The death benefit equals the greater of the Guideline Minimum Death Benefit or
the death benefit as calculated under one of the options below:

 .  Option A: the Face Amount of the policy plus the ART Face Amount;
 .  Option B: the Face Amount of the policy plus the ART Face Amount plus the
   Accumulated Value on the date of death;
 .  Option C: the Face Amount of the policy plus the ART Face Amount plus
   premiums paid and less withdrawals taken.

CHANGING THE ART FACE AMOUNT - Subject to our approval, you may change the ART
Face Amount by Written Request during the lifetime of the Insured.  Such request
may be made not more than once per policy year.

ART FACE AMOUNT INCREASES - You must provide evidence of insurability
satisfactory to us before any request for an increase in ART Face Amount becomes
effective.  An Administrative Charge not to exceed $100 will be deducted from
the  policy's Accumulated Value on the effective date of any such increase in
ART Face Amount.  The effective date of the increase will be the first Monthly
Payment Date on or following the date all applicable conditions are met.

ART FACE AMOUNT DECREASES - Any decrease in ART Face Amount that you request for
any policy year will first be applied against the most recent increase, if any,
and then against successively earlier increases, if any, and finally against the
original ART Face Amount.  The effective date of the decrease will be the first
Monthly Payment Date on or following the date we receive your Written Request.

COST OF INSURANCE CHARGE - Beginning on the Policy Date and for every month
thereafter, there will be a charge equal to the Cost of Insurance Charge
applicable to the following:

 .  the initial ART Face Amount; plus
 .  each increase in the ART Face Amount.

The monthly Cost of Insurance Charge for the death benefit payable under this
rider is (1) multiplied by (2) where:

     (1) is the applicable monthly Cost of Insurance Rate for this rider; and
     (2) is the Net Amount at Risk attributed to the ART Face Amount.

The Net Amount at Risk for the policy is calculated by taking the total death
benefit of the policy divided by 1.002466 and subtracting the Accumulated Value
at the beginning of the policy month before the Monthly Deduction is due.

The Net Amount at Risk is allocated between the policy and this rider in
proportion to the Face Amounts of each as of the Monthly Payment Date.

If there have been increases in the ART Face Amount, the Net Amount at Risk will
be proportionately allocated to each increase according to the Face Amount of
each increase in force as of the Monthly Payment Date.
<PAGE>

COST OF INSURANCE RATES - The Cost of Insurance Rates are based on a number of
factors, including the Insured's Age, Risk Classification, and the policy
duration. The current monthly Cost of Insurance Rates will be determined by us.
These rates will not exceed the Guaranteed Maximum Monthly Cost of Insurance
Rates shown in the Policy Specifications. Any changes in the Cost of Insurance
Rates will apply uniformly to all members of the same class.

The Cost of Insurance Rates used to calculate the Cost of Insurance Charges for
an increase in coverage necessary to meet the Guideline Minimum Death Benefit
will be the same as shown in the Policy Specifications.

R98-ART                                                                      NY

                                    Page 1

<PAGE>

M&E RISK FACE AMOUNT CHARGE - This M&E Risk Face Amount Charge for this rider
is to compensate us for the risk we assume that mortality, expenses and other
costs associated with the rider will be greater than estimated.

The amount of this charge will not exceed the monthly charges shown in the
Policy Specifications.  We reserve the right to charge less than such amount.
The amount of this charge is based on the amount of insurance issued under this
rider and any subsequent increases as shown in the Policy Specifications.

WITHDRAWALS - The Withdrawals provision of the policy, to which this rider is
attached, is modified to include this rider.  For the purpose of the Withdrawals
provision, this rider is treated the same as any other increase in
the policy Face Amount.  For further details, please see the Withdrawals
provision of your contract.

CONVERSION - Coverage under this rider is convertible to an increase in Face
Amount of the policy to which this rider is attached after 5 years from the
effective date of the rider coverage or at the Insured's Age 80. Cost of
insurance rates for such conversion amount will be those applicable for
conversions. No evidence of insurability will be required. The ART Face Amount
will be cancelled on the effective date of the corresponding increase in policy
Face Amount.

EFFECTIVE DATE - This rider is effective on the Policy Date unless otherwise
notified.

TERMINATION  This rider will terminate on the earliest of the following:
 .  the Insured's Age 80; or
 .  your Written Request; or
 .  lapse of the policy; or
 .  termination of the policy.

GENERAL CONDITIONS - This rider is part of the policy to which it is attached.
As applied to this rider, the periods stated in this policy's Incontestability
and Suicide provisions will start with this rider's effective date.  This will
also apply to any increase in the Face Amount under this rider.  All terms of
this policy that do not conflict with this rider's terms apply to this rider.

                       ACCELERATED LIVING BENEFIT RIDER

This rider is attached to and made part of your policy.

Issue Date:  ___________________________

Policy Number:  ________________________

AN ACCELERATED BENEFIT (AB) RECEIVED UNDER THIS RIDER MAY BE TAXABLE.  YOU
SHOULD CONSULT YOUR TAX ADVISOR PRIOR TO REQUESTING THIS BENEFIT.

ANY BENEFIT RECEIVED UNDER THIS RIDER MAY AFFECT YOUR ELIGIBILITY FOR GOVERNMENT
BENEFITS.

This rider is not meant to cause involuntary access to proceeds, which may be
ultimately payable to the beneficiary.  Therefore, this benefit is not
available:

 .  If either you or the Insured is required by law to use proceeds from this
   rider to meet the claims of creditors, whether in bankruptcy or otherwise; or
 .  If either you or the Insured is required by a government agency to use
   proceeds from this rider to apply for, obtain or keep a government benefit.

Requested Portion - is the amount of the policy proceeds you request.  The
Requested Portion divided by the Eligible Coverage will be called the Requested
Percentage.  The Requested Portion may not exceed the lesser of:
 .  50% of the Eligible Coverage; or
 .  $250,000 for all policies in force with us.

Eligible Coverage - is the portion of the policy proceeds that qualifies for
determining the AB Amount.

The Eligible Coverage includes:
 .  the base policy death benefit;
 .  any paid-up additions; and
 .  any term rider or term coverage on the Insured that has at least two years of
   coverage remaining. For term coverage that varies by year, we will use the
   lowest coverage for the two years following your request.

Eligible Coverage does not include:
 .  any insurance provided under the policy on the life of someone other than the
   Insured;
 .  the face amount of any scheduled increase(s) in insurance as provided by an
   additional benefit rider during the 12-month period from the date you request
   acceleration; or
 .  any accidental death benefit.

AB Amount - The AB Amount will be determined as of the date we approve your
Written Request.  The AB Amount will equal the Requested Portion less the
following:
1.  An actuarial discount will apply to the Requested Portion. This discount
    reflects the early payment of the Requested Portion of your policy. The
    discount will be based on a declared interest rate in effect as of the date
    we approve your Written Request; and
2.  If there is a policy loan on your policy as of the date we approve your
    Written Request, we will reduce the Requested Portion to repay a portion of
    the policy loan equal to the Requested Percentage times the policy loan.
3.  A reduction to the Requested Portion will be applied to any premiums due and
    unpaid if the policy has entered the Grace Period when we approve your
    request.
4.  An administrative charge not to exceed $150.

We will refund the amounts discussed in 1) and 4) above should the death of the
Insured occur within 30 days after we pay the AB Amount.

The AB Amount may not be less than $500.  The AB will be paid either in a lump
sum or under any other payment plan available at the time the Insured qualifies
for payment.  WE WILL PAY THE AB AMOUNT ONLY ONCE PER INSURED.  If you choose a
payment plan and the Insured dies before all payments have been made, the
remaining amount will be paid to the beneficiary.

Impact on Policy - After we pay the AB, the policy and all riders will remain in
force, but all of the following will be reduced by the Requested Percentage:
 .  The policy death benefit;
 .  any cash value;
 .  any paid-up additions;
 .  any Accumulated Value;


R92-ABR                                                                      NY
<PAGE>

 .  any term insurance eligible to be accelerated under this rider; and
 .  any required premium payments.

Any policy loan will be reduced as described in the AB Amount Section.

Any adjustment in Accumulated Value will be allocated to the Fixed and Variable
Accounts on a pro-rata basis.  Cost of Insurance Charges will be adjusted to
reflect the reduction in the death benefit.

Eligibility - The following conditions must be met prior to payment of any AB
Amount:

 .  The policy must be in force when your request is approved. If you have a term
   insurance policy or your policy is on Extended Term, two years of coverage
   must remain to qualify for an AB Amount.
 .  We must receive written proof satisfactory to us that the Insured is expected
   to live 6 months or less from the date of the Written Request. A licensed
   physician, other than yourself or a member of your family, must certify to
   the condition. Such proof may include clinical, radiological or laboratory
   evidence. We reserve the right to obtain a second medical opinion from a
   physician of our choice, at our expense.
 .  You or your legal guardian must apply in writing for this benefit on a form
   we supply.
 .  We require written consent from any irrevocable beneficiary and assignee.
 .  Joint life policies will qualify for acceleration only after the death of one
   of the joint Insureds and only if the surviving Insured meets the
   requirements for an AB. In the case of joint life policies, "Insured" in this
   rider refers to the survivor of the joint Insureds under the joint life
   policy.

Incontestability - This rider is subject to the Incontestability provision of
the policy to which it is attached.

Effective Date - This rider is effective on the issue date shown.  This rider
will terminate:
 .  On your written request;
 .  On lapse or termination of the policy; or
 .  When an AB is paid.

                  ANNUAL RENEWABLE AND CONVERTIBLE TERM RIDER

COVERED PERSON - As used in this rider, the term "Covered Person" means any of
the persons covered under this rider on the Policy Date.  Covered Persons may be
deleted from or, with evidence of insurability, added to this rider.  When this
occurs, we will give you a revised Policy Specifications page.

BENEFIT AMOUNT - This rider provides term insurance on any Covered Person under
this rider. This rider has no cash value, but it affects the cash value of the
policy. The Benefit Amount is shown on the Policy Specifications pages for each
Covered Person. Any reduction in Benefit Amount for any year may require a
reduction in Benefit Amounts for future years. Any decrease in the face amount
of the policy to which this rider is attached may require a decrease in the
Benefit Amounts under this rider. We will pay the Benefit Amount for this rider
when we receive proof that the death of a Covered Person occurred while this
rider was in force.

COST OF INSURANCE CHARGES - The Cost of Insurance Charges for this rider are
calculated separately for each Covered Person.  The monthly Cost of Insurance
Charge for any Covered Person is equal to the product of the applicable monthly
cost of insurance rate times the Benefit Amount for such Covered Person. The
cost of insurance rates are based on a number of factors, including the Covered
Person's attained Age and risk class and the duration of this rider. The current
monthly cost of insurance rates will be determined by us. These rates will not
exceed the Guaranteed Maximum Monthly Cost of Insurance Rates shown on the
Policy Specifications pages.

RENEWAL - Coverage under this rider will be automatically renewed for each
Covered Person on each monthly payment date for which there is an applicable
Guaranteed Maximum Monthly Cost of Insurance Rate shown on the Policy
Specifications pages.

CONVERSION - While this rider is in force or upon termination of this policy by
death of the Insured, the Benefit Amount for this rider may be converted to a
new policy on any Covered Person's life at any time before such Covered Person
becomes Age 65.  This rider may be converted during the first two years it is in
force regardless of the Covered Person's Age.  The Covered Person's Benefit
Amount for this rider will be cancelled on the new policy's issue date.  The
amount of insurance under the new policy will be the same as the Covered
Person's Benefit Amount under this rider.  A lower amount may be selected as
long as it is not less than our regular minimum limit at the time of conversion.
The new policy may be on the whole life or any higher premium plan we regularly
issue at the time of conversion.  It will be issued in the same underwriting
class and contain the same restrictions, if any, as this rider.  It will be
issued at our published rates which apply at the Covered Person's Age on the new
policy's issue date.  Riders will not be included in the new policy without our
consent at the time.  If we are waiving charges for this rider at the Covered
Person's Age 65, and if this rider is converted to a whole life policy in the
manner described above, we will waive premiums under the new policy while total
disability continues without interruption.

EFFECTIVE DATE - This rider is effective on the policy date unless otherwise
stated.  This rider will terminate on the earliest of the following:
 .  on your written request;
 .  on lapse or termination of this policy; or
 .  when the last person covered by this rider becomes Age 80.

GENERAL CONDITIONS - This rider is part of the policy to which it is attached.
As applied to this rider, the periods stated in this policy's Incontestability
and Suicide provisions will start with this rider's effective date.  This will
also apply to any increase in the Face Amount under this rider. All terms of
this policy which do not conflict with this rider's terms apply to this rider.

You or the child must apply in writing on a form we provide within 31 days of

The amount of insurance on the new policy will be five times the child's Benefit
Amount.  If you wish, you may select a lower amount but not less than our
regular minimum limit at the time of conversion.

issue at the time of conversion.  It will be issued at our published rates for
the standard class and for the child's age on the new policy's date.

                           WAIVER OF CHARGES RIDER

BENEFIT -- Subject to this rider's terms, we will waive any monthly Cost of
Insurance Charges, any monthly Administrative Charges and any monthly cost of
any rider benefits for this policy which fall due while the Insured is totally
disabled.

We will not waive any charges, which fall due more than one year before we
receive proof of total disability.  We will not waive any charges, which fall
due before the Insured's age 5.  If total disability begins during the grace
period for an unpaid premium, that premium must be paid in order to establish a
valid claim under this rider.

TOTAL DISABILITY -- Total disability means a condition which:
 .  results from bodily injury accidentally sustained or disease which first
   manifests itself while this rider is in effect;
 .  occurs before the Insured's age 60;
 .  lasts continuously for at least 3 months; and, either
 .  stops the Insured from performing the substantial and material duties of the
   job; or
 .  includes the Insured's total and irrecoverable loss of sight of both eyes or
   use of two hands, two feet or one hand and one foot.

During the first 24 months of disability, "the job" means the Insured's
occupation for pay or profit at the time total disability began.  After that,
"the job" means any job for which the Insured is or becomes reasonably fitted by
education, training or experience.  If the Insured is a student when disability
begins, "the job" means attending school.

If the Insured becomes totally disabled, any monthly charges that were deducted
during the three-month waiting period will be credited back to the policy.

NOTICE OF DISABILITY CLAIM -- We must receive notice of the Insured's total
disability, at our home office, on forms we provide while the Insured is alive
and disabled. If it is not reasonably possible for you to give us notice within
the time limits, you must give us notice within one year from the time total
disability ends.

PROOF OF DISABILITY -- Before we pay a benefit, we must receive proof of total
disability.  From time to time after the Insured is disabled, we may require
proof of continuing disability.  This proof may include a medical exam by a
physician we select and pay.  After two years of disability, we will not require
such proof more than once a year.  We will not require proof after the Insured's
age 70.

WAR SERVICE NOT COVERED -- Disability occurring in a period during which the
Insured is in the armed forces of any country at war (declared or not) is not
covered under this rider.  No insurance charges for this rider will be made for
such a period.  If any such charges are made, we will reverse them.

INSURANCE CHARGES -- The monthly Insurance Charge for this rider is the result
of multiplying the applicable monthly Waiver of Charges Rate as shown in the
Policy Specifications pages by the sum of the Net Amount at Risk as calculated
under the policy plus the Benefit Amount for any Annual Renewable and
Convertible Term Rider present.

EFFECTIVE DATE -- This rider is effective on the Policy Date unless otherwise
stated.  This rider will terminate (without affecting any claim for disability
occurring before such termination) on the earliest of:

 .  your Written Request; or
 .  lapse or termination of the policy; or
 .  when the Insured becomes age 60.

INCONTESTABILITY -- This rider will be incontestable after 2 years from it's
issue date, excluding any period the insured is disabled.

GENERAL CONDITIONS -- This rider is part of the policy to which it is attached.
All terms of the policy that do not conflict with this rider's terms apply to
this rider.

 . Results directly and independently of all other causes from bodily injuries
accidentally sustained while this rider is in force; and
 . Is not caused by bodily or mental infirmity, illness or disease; and

the insured continuously requires artificial means to sustain life from the time
of injury to the time of death.

RISKS NOT COVERED - This rider does not cover death which results from:
 . Intentionally self-inflicted injuries while sane or insane; or
 . Medical, surgical or dental treatment; or

 . Descent from any kind of aircraft; or
 . Riding in any kind of aircraft unless solely as a passenger in an aircraft not

                           DISABILITY BENEFIT RIDER

DISABILITY BENEFITS - On each monthly payment date that the Insured qualifies,
we will add the Disability Benefit Amount shown in the Policy Specifications

disabled, as defined below, and under age 65. We will make the addition on the
monthly payment date or, if later, at the time we receive proof of disability.
We will not make the addition for a monthly payment date unless we receive proof
of disability within one year following that date.

If total disability begins during the grace period for an unpaid premium, that
premium must be paid in order to establish a valid claim under this rider.

physician we select and pay. After two years of disability, we will not require
such proof more than once a year.

                                 ------------

          The private property of the shareholders, directors and officers of
the corporation shall be forever exempt from debts and obligations of the
corporation.

                                   ARTICLE IX
                                   ----------

          Subject to the further provisions hereof, the corporation shall
indemnify and hold harmless any and all of its existing and former directors and
officers against all expenses incurred by them, including but not limited to
legal fees, judgments and penalties which may be incurred, rendered or levied in
any legal action brought against any of them, for or on account of any action or
omission alleged to have been committed while acting within the scope of
employment as director or officer of the corporation.  Whenever any such person
has ground to believe that he may incur any such aforementioned expense he shall
promptly make a full report of the matter to the president and the secretary of
the corporation.  Thereafter, the Board of Directors of the corporation shall,
within a reasonable time, determine if such person acted, or failed to act, in
good faith and in a manner he reasonably believed to be in, or not opposed to,
the best interest of the corporation, and, with respect to any criminal action
or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe his conduct was unlawful.  If
the Board of Directors determines that such person acted in good faith and in a
manner he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interest of
the corporation, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no
reasonable cause to believe his conduct was unlawful, then indemnification shall
be mandatory and shall be automatically extended as specified herein, provided,
however, that the corporation shall have the right to refuse indemnification,
wholly or partially, in any instance in which the person to which
indemnification would have otherwise been applicable, shall have unreasonably
refused to permit the corporation, at its own expense and through counsel of its
own choosing, to defend him in the action, or shall have unreasonably refused to
cooperate in the defense of such action.

          To the fullest extent permitted by Title 10, Chapter 1 of the Arizona
Revised Statutes as the same exists or may hereafter be amended, no director
shall be liable to the corporation or its shareholders for monetary damages for
breach of fiduciary duties as director.

                                   ---------
          The fiscal year of the corporation shall be the calendar year.

                         FUND PARTICIPATION AGREEMENT

This AGREEMENT is made this _____ day of _______, 199__, by and between Pacific
Life & Annuity Company (the "Company"), a life insurance company domiciled in
Arizona, on its behalf and on behalf of the segregated asset accounts of the
Company listed on Exhibit A to this Agreement (the "Separate Accounts"); Pacific
Select Fund (the "Fund"), a Massachusetts business trust; and Pacific Mutual
Distributors, Inc. ("Distributor"), a California corporation.

WITNESSETH:

WHEREAS, the Fund is registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission
("SEC") as an open-end management investment company under the Investment
Company Act of 1940, as amended ("1940 Act") and the Fund is authorized to issue
separate classes of shares of beneficial interests ("shares"), each representing
an interest in a separate portfolio of assets known as a "portfolio" and each
portfolio has its own investment objective, policies, and limitations; and

WHEREAS, the Fund is available to offer shares of one or more of its portfolios
to separate accounts of insurance companies that fund variable life insurance
policies and variable annuity contracts ("Variable Contracts") and to serve as
an investment medium for Variable Contracts offered by insurance companies that
have entered into participation agreements substantially similar to this
agreement ("Participating Insurance Companies"), and the Fund is currently
comprised of fourteen separate portfolios and other portfolios may be
established in the future; and

WHEREAS, the Fund has obtained an order from the SEC granting Participating
Insurance Companies, separate accounts funding Variable Contracts of
Participating Insurance Companies, and the Fund exemptions from the provisions
of sections 9(a), 13(a), 15(a), and 15(b) of the 1940 Act and paragraph (b)(15)
of Rule 6e-3(T) under the 1940 Act, to the extent necessary to permit such
persons to rely on the exemptive relief provided under paragraph (b)(15) of Rule
6e-3(t), even though shares of the Fund may be offered to and held by separate
accounts funding variable annuity contracts or scheduled or flexible premium
variable life insurance contracts of both affiliated and unaffiliated life
insurance companies (the "Shared Funding Exemptive Order"); and

WHEREAS, the Distributor is registered as a broker-dealer with the SEC under the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended ("1934 Act"), and is a member in
good standing of the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. ("NASD");
and

WHEREAS, to the extent permitted by applicable insurance laws and regulations,
the company wishes to purchase shares of one or more of the Fund's portfolios on
behalf of its Separate Accounts to serve as an investment medium for Variable
Contracts funded by the Separate Accounts, and the Distributor is authorized to
sell shares of the Fund's portfolios;
<PAGE>

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and the mutual promises and
covenants hereinafter set forth, the parties hereby agree as follows:

ARTICLE I.          Sale of Fund Shares

1.1   The Distributor agrees to sell to the Company those shares of the
      portfolios offered and made available by the Fund and identified on
      Exhibit B ("Portfolios") that the Company orders on behalf of its Separate
      Accounts, and agrees to execute such orders on each day on which the Fund
      calculates its net asset value pursuant to rules of the SEC ("business
      day") at the net asset value next computed after receipt and acceptance by
      the Fund or its agent of the order for the shares of the Fund.

1.2.  The Fund agrees to make available on each business day shares of the
      Portfolios for purchase at the applicable net asset value per share by the
      Company on behalf of its Separate Accounts provided, however, that the
      Board of Trustees of the Fund may refuse to sell shares of any Portfolio
      to any person, or suspend or terminate the offering of shares of any
      Portfolio, if such action is required by law or by regulatory authorities
      having jurisdiction or is, in the sole discretion of the Trustees, acting
      in good faith and in light of the Trustees' fiduciary duties under
      applicable law, necessary in the best interests of the shareholders of any
      Portfolio.

1.3.  The Fund and the Distributor agree that shares of the Portfolios of the
      Fund will be sold only to Participating Insurance Companies, their
      separate accounts, and other persons consistent with each Portfolio being
      adequately diversified pursuant to Section 817(h) of the Internal Revenue
      Code of 1986, as amended ("Code") and the regulations thereunder. No
      shares of any Portfolio will be sold directly to the general public.

1.4.  The Fund and the Distributor will not sell shares of the Portfolios to any
      insurance company or separate account unless an agreement containing
      provisions substantially the same as this Agreement is in effect to govern
      such sales.

1.5.  Upon receipt of a request for redemption in proper form from the Company,
      the Fund agrees to redeem any full or fractional shares of the Portfolios
      held by the Company, ordinarily executing such requests on each business
      day at the net asset value next computed after receipt and acceptance by
      the Fund or its agent of the request for redemption, except that the Fund
      reserves the right to suspend the right of redemption, consistent with
      Section 22(e) of the 1940 Act and any rules thereunder.  Such redemption
      shall be paid consistent with applicable rules of the SEC and procedures
      and policies of the Fund as described in the current prospectus.

1.6.  The Company agrees to purchase and redeem the shares of each Portfolio in
      accordance with the provisions of the current prospectus for the Fund.

1.7.  The Company shall pay for shares of the Portfolios on the same day that it
      places an order to purchase shares of the Portfolios.  Payment shall be in
      federal funds transmitted by wire.

1.8.  Issuance and transfer of shares of the Portfolios will be by book entry
      only unless otherwise agreed by the Fund. Stock certificates will not be
      issued to the Company or the Separate
<PAGE>

      Accounts unless otherwise agreed by the Fund. Shares ordered from the Fund
      will be recorded in an appropriate title for the Separate Accounts or the
      appropriate subaccounts of the Separate Accounts.

1.9.  The Fund shall promptly furnish notice (by wire or telephone, followed by
      written confirmation) to the Company of any income dividends or capital
      gain distributions payable on the shares of the Portfolios. The Company
      hereby elects to reinvest in the Portfolios all such dividends and
      distributions as are payable on a Portfolio's shares and to receive such
      dividends and distributions in additional shares of the Portfolio. The
      Company reserves the right to revoke this election in writing and to
      receive all such dividends and distributions in cash. The Fund shall
      notify the Company of the number of shares so issued as payment of such
      dividends and distributions.

1.10. The Fund shall instruct its recordkeeping agent to advise the Company on
      each business day of the net asset value per share for each Portfolio as
      soon as reasonably practical after the net asset value per share is
      calculated.

      and state law.

2.3.  The Company represents and warrants that the Variable Contracts issued by
      the Company or interests in the Separate Accounts under such Variable
      Contracts (1) are or, prior to issuance, will be registered as securities

      not registered because they are properly exempt from registration under
      the 1933 Act or will be offered exclusively in transactions that are
      properly exempt from registration under the 1933 Act.

<PAGE>

2.6.  The Company represents and warrants that any of its Separate Accounts that
      fund variable life insurance contracts and that are registered with the

      the Code and the regulations issued thereunder relating to the
      diversification requirements for variable life insurance policies and
      variable annuity contracts.

      of the shares of each Portfolio to the Separate Accounts, including
      maintaining its registration as an investment company under the 1940 Act,
      and registering the shares of the Portfolios sold to the Separate Accounts
      under the 1933 Act for so long as required by applicable law. The Fund
      shall amend its Registration Statement filed with the SEC under the 1933
      Act and the 1940 Act from time to time as required in order to effect the
      continuous offering of the shares of the Portfolios. The Fund shall
      register and qualify the shares for sale in accordance with the laws of
      the various states to the extent deemed necessary by the Fund or the
      Distributor.

3.2.  The Fund shall make every effort to maintain qualification of each
      Portfolio as a Regulated Investment Company under Subchapter M of the Code
      (or any successor or similar provision) and shall notify the Company
      immediately upon having a reasonable basis for believing that a Portfolio
      has ceased to so qualify or that it might not so qualify in the future.

3.3.  The Fund shall make every effort to enable each Portfolio to comply with
      the diversification provisions of Section 817(h) of the Code and the
      regulations issued thereunder relating to the diversification requirements
      for variable life insurance policies and variable annuity contracts and
      any prospective amendments or other modifications to Section 817 or
      regulations thereunder, and shall notify the Company immediately upon
      having a reasonable basis for believing that any Portfolio has ceased to
      comply.

3.4.  The Fund shall be entitled to receive and act upon advice of its General
      Counsel or its outside counsel in meeting the requirements specified in
      Sections 3.2 and 3.3 hereof.
<PAGE>

3.5.  The Company shall take all such actions as are necessary under applicable
      federal and state law to permit the sale of the Variable Contracts issued
      by the Company, including registering each Separate Account as an
      investment company to the extent required under the 1940 Act, and
      registering the Variable Contracts or interests in the Separate Accounts
      under the Variable Contracts to the extent required under the 1933 Act,
      and obtaining all necessary approvals to offer the Variable Contracts from
      state insurance commissioners.

3.6.  The Company shall make every effort to maintain the treatment of the
      Variable Contracts issued by the Company as annuity contracts or life
      insurance policies, whichever is appropriate, under applicable provisions
      of the Code, and shall notify the Fund and the Distributor immediately
      upon having a reasonable basis for believing that such Variable Contracts
      have ceased to be so treated or that they might not be so treated in the
      future.

3.7.  The Company shall offer and sell the Variable Contracts issued by the
      Company in accordance with applicable provisions of the 1933 Act, the 1934
      Act, the 1940 Act, the NASD Rules of Fair Practice, and state law
      respecting the offering of variable life insurance policies and variable
      annuity contracts.

3.8.  The Distributor shall sell and distribute the shares of the Portfolios of
      the Fund in accordance with the applicable provisions of the 1933 Act, the
      1934 Act, the 1940 Act, the NASD Rules of Fair Practice, and state law.

3.9.  A majority of the Board of Trustees of the Fund shall consist of persons
      who are not "interested persons" of the Fund ("disinterested Trustees"),
      as defined by Section 2(a)(19) of the 1940 Act, except that if this
      provision of this Section 3.9 is not met by reason of the death,
      disqualification, or bona fide resignation of any Trustee or Trustees,
      then the operation of this provision shall be suspended (a) for a period
      of 45 days if the vacancy or vacancies may be filled by the Fund's Board;
      (b) for a period of 60 days if a vote of shareholders is required to fill
      the vacancy or vacancies; or (c) for such longer period as the SEC may
      prescribe by order upon application.

3.10. The Company agrees to provide, as promptly as possible, notice to the Fund
      and to the Distributor if the Company has reason to know about a meeting
      of some or all of the owners of the Variable Contracts or shareholders of
      the Fund, where the agenda or purpose of the meeting relates, in whole or
      in part, to the Fund and that has not been called by the Fund's Board of
      Trustees (and which shall not include a vote of Variable Contract Owners
      having an interest in a Separate Account to substitute shares of another
      investment company for corresponding shares of the Fund or a Portfolio, as
      described in Section 9(e) and to which the notice provision of Section 9.2
      shall apply). In such an event, the Company agrees to distribute proxy
      statements and any additional solicitation materials upon the request of
      the Fund or the Distributor to the owners of the Variable Contracts issued
      by the Company at least 30 days prior to the meeting. The Company further
      agrees that it shall take no action, directly or indirectly, in
      furtherance of shareholders of the Fund or Contract Owners taking any
      action with respect to the Fund by written consent and without a meeting.
<PAGE>

3.11. Each party hereto shall cooperate with each other party and all
      appropriate governmental authorities having jurisdiction (including,
      without limitation, the SEC, the NASD, and state insurance regulators) and
      shall permit such authorities reasonable access to its books and records
      in connection with any investigation or inquiry relating to this Agreement
      or the transactions contemplated hereby.

ARTICLE IV.    Potential Conflicts

4.1.  The Fund's Board of Trustees shall monitor the Fund for the existence of
      any material irreconcilable conflict (1) between the interests of owners
      of variable annuity contracts and variable life insurance policies, and
      (2) between the interests of owners of Variable Contracts ("Variable
      Contract Owners") issued by different Participating Insurance Companies
      that invest in the Fund. An irreconcilable material conflict may arise for
      a variety of reasons, including: (a) an action by any state insurance
      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 interpretive letter, or any similar
      action by insurance, tax, or securities regulatory authorities; (c) an
      administrative or judicial decision in any relevant proceeding; (d) the
      manner in which the investments of the Fund or any Portfolio are being
      managed; or (e) a decision by a Participating Insurance Company to
      disregard the voting instructions of Variable Contract Owners.

4.2.  The Company agrees that it shall be responsible for reporting any
      potential or existing conflicts to the Fund's Board of Trustees. The
      Company will be responsible for assisting the Board of Trustees of the
      Fund in carrying out its responsibilities under this agreement, by
      providing the Board with all information reasonably necessary for the
      Board to consider any issues raised. This includes, but is not limited to,
      an obligation by the Company to inform the Board whenever Variable
      Contract Owner voting instructions are disregarded. The Company shall
      carry out its responsibility under this Section 4.2 with a view only to
      the interests of the Variable Contract Owners.

4.3   The Company agrees that in the event that it is determined by a majority
      of the Board of Trustees of the Fund or a majority of the Fund's
      disinterested Trustees that a material irreconcilable conflict exists, the
      Company shall, to the extent reasonably practicable (as determined by a
      majority of the disinterested Trustees of the Board of the Fund), take
      whatever steps are necessary to eliminate the irreconcilable material
      conflict, including: (1) 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, which may include another
      portfolio of the Fund, or submitting the question of whether such
      segregation should be implemented to a vote of all affected Variable
      Contract Owners and, as appropriate, segregating the assets of any
      appropriate group (i.e., contract Owners of Variable Contracts issued by
      one or more Participating Insurance Companies) that votes in favor of such
      segregation, or offering to the affected Variable Contract Owners the
      option of making such a change; and (2) establishing a new registered
      management investment company or managed separate account. If a material
      irreconcilable conflict arises because of the Company's decision to
      disregard Variable Contract Owners' voting instructions and
<PAGE>

      that decision represents a minority position or would preclude a majority
      vote, the Company shall be required, at the Fund's election, to withdraw
      the Separate Accounts' investment in the Fund, and no charge or penalty
      will be imposed as a result of such withdrawal. The Fund shall neither be
      required to bear the costs of remedial actions taken to remedy a material
      irreconcilable conflict nor shall it be requested to pay a higher
      investment advisory fee for the sole purpose of covering such costs. In
      addition, no Variable Contract Owner shall be required directly to
      indirectly to bear the direct or indirect costs of remedial actions taken
      to remedy a material irreconcilable conflict. A new funding medium for any
      Variable Contract need not be established pursuant to this Section 4.3, if
      an offer to do so has been declined by vote of a majority of Variable
      Contract Owners materially adversely affected by the irreconcilable
      material conflict. All reports received by the Fund's Board of Trustees of
      potential or existing conflicts, and all Board action with regard to
      determining the existence of a conflict, notifying Participating Insurance
      Companies and the Fund's investment adviser of a conflict, and determining
      whether any proposed action adequately remedies a conflict,, shall be
      properly recorded life insurance policies, and (2) between the interests
      of owners of Variable Contracts ("Variable Contract Owners") issued by
      different Participating Insurance Companies that invest in the Fund. An
      irreconcilable material conflict may arise for a variety of reasons,
      including: (a) an action by any state insurance 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
      interpretive letter, or any similar action by insurance, tax, or
      securities regulatory authorities; (c) an administrative or judicial
      decision in any relevant proceeding; (d) the manner in which the
      investments of the Fund or any Portfolio are being managed; or (e) a
      decision by a Participating Insurance Company to disregard the voting
      instructions of Variable Contract Owners.

4.2   The Company agrees that it shall be responsible for reporting any
      potential or existing conflicts to the Fund's Board of Trustees. The
      Company will be responsible for assisting the Board of Trustees of the
      Fund in carrying out its responsibilities under this Agreement, by
      providing the Board with all information reasonably necessary for the
      Board to consider any issues raised. This includes, but is not limited to,
      an obligation by the Company to inform the Board whenever Variable
      Contract Owner voting instructions are disregarded. The Company shall
      carry out its responsibility under this Section 4.2 with a view only to
      the interests of the Variable Contract Owners.

4.3   The Company agrees that in the event that it is determined by a majority
      of the Board of Trustees of the Fund or a majority of the Fund's
      disinterested Trustees that a material irreconcilable conflict exists, the
      Company shall, to the extent reasonably practicable (as determined by a
      majority of the disinterested Trustees of the Board of the Fund), take
      whatever steps are necessary to eliminate the irreconcilable material
      conflict, including: (1) 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, which may include another
      portfolio of the Fund, or submitting the question of whether such
      segregation should be implemented to a vote of all affected Variable
      Contract Owners and, as appropriate, segregating the assets of any
      appropriate group (i.e., Contract Owners of Variable Contracts issued by
      one or more Participating Insurance Companies) that votes in
<PAGE>

      favor of such segregation, or offering to the affected Variable Contract
      Owners the option of making such a change; and (2) establishing a new
      registered management investment company or managed separate account. If a
      material irreconcilable conflict arises because of the Company's decision
      to disregard Variable Contract Owners' voting instructions and that
      decision represents a minority position or would preclude a majority vote,
      the Company shall be required, at the Fund's election, to withdraw the
      Separate Accounts' investment in the Fund, and no charge or penalty will
      be imposed as a result of such withdrawal. The Fund shall neither be
      required to bear the costs of remedial actions taken to remedy a material
      irreconcilable conflict nor shall it be requested to pay a higher
      investment advisory fee for the sole purpose of covering such costs. In
      addition, no Variable Contract Owner shall be required directly or
      indirectly to bear the direct or indirect costs of remedial actions taken
      to remedy a material irreconcilable conflict. A new funding medium for any
      Variable Contract need not be established pursuant to this Section 4.3, if
      an offer to do so has been declined by vote of a majority of Variable
      Contract Owners materially adversely affected by the irreconcilable
      material conflict. All reports received by the Fund's Board of Trustees of
      potential or existing conflicts, and all Board action with regard to
      determining the existence of a conflict, notifying Participating Insurance
      Companies and the Fund's investment adviser of a conflict, and determining
      whether any proposed action adequately remedies a conflict, shall be
      properly recorded in the minutes of the Board of Trustees of the Fund or
      other appropriate records, and such minutes or other records shall be made
      available to the SEC upon request. The Company and the Fund shall carry
      out their responsibilities under this Section 4.3 with a view only to the
      interests of the Variable Contract Owners.

4.4   The Board of Trustees of the Fund shall promptly notify the Company in
      writing of its determination of the existence of an irreconcilable
      material conflict and its implications.

ARTICLE V.     Prospectuses and Proxy Statements; Voting

5.1   The Company shall distribute such prospectuses, proxy statements and
      periodic reports of the Fund to the owners of Variable Contracts issued by
      the Company as required to be distributed to such Variable Contract Owners
      under applicable federal or state law.

5.2   The Distributor shall provide the Company with as many copies of the
      current prospectus of the Fund as the Company may reasonably request. If
      requested by the Company in lieu thereof, the Fund shall provide such
      documentation (including a final copy of the Fund's prospectus as set in
      type or in camera-ready copy) and other assistance as is reasonably
      necessary in order for the Company to print together in one document the
      current prospectus for the Variable Contracts issued by the Company and
      the current prospectus for the Fund. The Fund shall bear the expense of
      printing copies of its current prospectus that will be distributed to
      existing Variable Contract Owners, and the Company shall bear the expense
      of printing copies of the Fund's prospectus that are used in connection
      with offering the Variable Contracts issued by the Company.

5.3   The Fund and the Distributor shall provide (1) at the Fund's expense, one
      copy of the Fund's current Statement of Additional Information ("SAI") to
      the Company and to any owner of
<PAGE>

      a Variable Contract issued by the Company who requests such SAI, (2) at
      the Company's expense, such additional copies of the Fund's current SAI as
      the Company shall reasonably request and that the Company shall require in
      accordance with applicable law in connection with offering the Variable
      Contracts issued by the Company.

5.4   The Fund, at its expense, shall provide the Company with copies of its
      proxy material, periodic reports to shareholders and other communications
      to shareholders in such quantity as the Company shall reasonably require
      for purposes of distributing to owners of Variable Contracts issued by the
      Company. The Fund, at the Company's expense, shall provide the Company
      with copies of its periodic reports to shareholders and other
      communications to shareholders in such quantity as the Company shall
      reasonably request for use in connection with offering the Variable
      Contracts issued by the Company. If requested by the Company in lieu
      thereof, the Fund shall provide such documentation (including a final copy
      of the Fund's proxy materials, periodic reports to shareholders and other
      communications to shareholders, as set in type or in camera-ready copy)
      and other assistance as reasonably necessary in order for the Company to
      print such shareholder communications for distribution to owners of
      Variable Contracts issued by the Company.

5.5   For so long as the SEC interprets the 1940 Act to require pass-through
      voting by Participating Insurance Companies whose Separate Accounts are
      registered as investment companies under the 1940 Act, the Company shall
      vote shares of each Portfolio of the Fund held in a Separate Account or a
      subaccount thereof, whether or not registered under the 1940 Act, at
      regular and special meetings of the Fund in accordance with instructions
      timely received by the Company (or its designated agent) from owners of
      Variable Contracts funded by such Separate Account or subaccount thereof
      having a voting interest in the Portfolio. The Company shall vote shares
      of a Portfolio of the Fund held in a Separate Account or a subaccount
      thereof that are attributable to the Variable Contracts as to which no
      timely instructions are received, as well as shares held in such Separate
      Account or subaccount thereof that are not attributable to the Variable
      Contracts and owned beneficially by the Company (resulting from charges
      against the Variable Contracts or otherwise), in the same proportion as
      the votes cast by owners of the Variable Contracts funded by that Separate
      Account or subaccount thereof having a voting interest in the Portfolio
      from whom instructions have been timely received. The Company shall vote
      shares of each Portfolio of the Fund held in its general account, if any,
      in the same proportion as the votes cast with respect to shares of the
      Portfolio held in all Separate Accounts of the Company or subaccounts
      thereof, in the aggregate.

5.6   The Fund shall disclose in its prospectus that (1) shares of the
      Portfolios of the Fund are offered to affiliated or unaffiliated insurance
      company separate accounts which fund both annuity and life insurance
      contracts, (2) due to differences in tax treatment or other
      considerations, the interests of various Variable Contract Owners
      participating in the Fund or a Portfolio might at some time be in
      conflict, and (3) the Board of Trustees of the Fund will monitor for any
      material conflicts and determine what action, if any, should be taken. The
      Fund hereby notifies the Company that prospectus disclosure may be
      appropriate regarding potential risks of offering shares of the Fund to
      separate accounts funding both
<PAGE>

     variable annuity contracts and variable life insurance policies and to
     separate accounts funding Variable Contracts of unaffiliated life
     insurance companies.

ARTICLE VI.    Sales Material and Information

6.1  The Company shall furnish, or shall cause to be furnished, to the Fund or
     its designee, each piece of sales literature or other promotional material
     in which the Fund (or any Portfolio thereof) or its investment adviser or
     the Distributor is named, and no such sales literature or other promotional
     material shall be used without the approval of the Fund and the Distributor
     or the designee of either.

6.2  The Company agrees that neither it nor any of its affiliates or agents
     shall give any information or make any representations or statements on
     behalf of the Fund or concerning the Fund other than the information or
     representations contained in the Registration Statement or prospectus for
     the Fund shares, as such registration statement and prospectus may be
     amended or supplemented from time to time, or in reports or proxy
     statements for the Fund, or in sales literature or other promotional
     material approved by the Fund or its designee and by the Distributor or its
     designee, except with the permission of the Fund or its designee and the
     Distributor or its designee.

6.3  The Fund or the Distributor or the designee of either shall furnish to the
     Company or its designee, each piece of sales literature or other
     promotional material in which the Company or its Separate accounts are
     named, and no such material shall be used without the approval of the
     Company or its designee.

6.4  The Fund and the Distributor agree that each and the affiliates and agents
     of each shall not give any information or make any representations on
     behalf of the Company or concerning the Company, the Separate Accounts, or
     the Variable Contracts issued by the Company, other than the information or
     representations contained in a registration statement or prospectus for
     such Variable Contracts, as such registration statement and prospectus may
     be amended or supplemented from time to time, or in reports for the
     Separate Accounts or prepared for distribution to owners of such Variable
     Contracts, or in sales literature or other promotional material approved by
     the Company or its designee, except with the permission of the Company.

6.5  The Fund will provide to the Company at least one complete copy of all
     prospectuses, Statements of Additional Information, reports, proxy
     statements and other voting solicitation materials, and all amendments and
     supplements to any of the above, that relate to the Fund or its shares,
     promptly after the filing of such document with the SEC or other regulatory
     authorities.

6.6  The Company will provide to the Fund at least one complete copy of all
     prospectuses (which shall include an offering memorandum if the Variable
     Contracts issued by the Company or interests therein are not registered
     under the 1933 Act), Statements of Additional Information, reports,
     solicitations for voting instructions, and all amendments or supplements
<PAGE>

     to any of the above, that relate to the Variable Contracts issued by the
     Company or the Separate Accounts promptly after the filing of such document
     with the SEC or other regulatory authority.

6.7  For purposes of this Article VI, the phrase "sales literature or other
     promotional material" includes, but is not limited to, advertisements (such
     as periodical, radio, television, telephone or tape recording, videotape
     display, signs or billboards, motion pictures, computerized media, or other
     public media), sales literature (i.e., any written communication
     distributed or made generally available to customers or the public,
     including brochures, circulars, research reports, market letters, form
     letters, seminar texts, reprints or excerpts of any other advertisement,
     sales literature, or published article), educational or training materials
     or other communications distributed or made generally available to some or
     all agents or employees.

ARTICLE VII.   Indemnification

7.1  Indemnification By The Company

     7.1(a). The Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Fund, each of
             its Trustees and officers, any affiliated person of the Fund within
             the meaning of Section 2(a)(3) of the 1940 Act, and the Distributor
             (collectively, the "Indemnified Parties" for purposes of this
             Section 7.1) against any and all losses, claims, damages,
             liabilities (including amounts paid in settlement with the written
             consent of the Company) or litigation expenses (including 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 litigation
             expenses are related to the sale or acquisition of the Fund's
             shares or the Variable Contracts issued by the Company and:

             (i)   arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement or
                   alleged untrue statement of any material fact contained in
                   the registration statement or prospectus (which shall include
                   an offering memorandum) for the Variable 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
                   the Company by or on behalf of the Fund for use in the
                   registration statement or prospectus for the Variable
                   Contracts issued by the Company or sales literature (or any
                   amendment or supplement) or otherwise for use in connection
                   with the sale of such Variable Contracts or Fund shares; or

             (ii)  arise out of or as a result of any statement or
                   representation (other than statements or representations
                   contained in the registration statement,
<PAGE>

                prospectus or sales literature of the Fund not supplied by the
                Company or persons under its control) or wrongful conduct of the
                Company or any of its affiliates, employees or agents with
                respect to the sale or distribution of the Variable Contracts
                issued by the Company or the Fund shares; or

          (iii) arise out of any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of
                a material fact contained in a registration statement,
                prospectus, or sales literature of the Fund or any amendment
                thereof or supplement thereto 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 information furnished to the Fund by or on behalf of the
                Company;

          except to the extent provided in Sections 7.1(b) and 7.1(c) hereof.

  7.1(b). The Company shall not be liable under this indemnification provision
          with respect to any losses, claims, damages, liabilities or litigation
          expenses to which an Indemnified Party would otherwise be subject by
          reason of willful misfeasance, bad faith, or gross negligence in the
          performance of his or her duties or by reason of his or her reckless
          disregard of obligations or duties under this Agreement or to the
          Fund.

  7.1(c). The Company shall not be liable under this indemnification provision
          with respect to any claim made against an Indemnified Party unless
          such Party shall have notified the Company in writing within a
          reasonable time after the summons or other first legal process giving
          information of the nature of the claim shall have been served upon
          such Indemnified Party (or after such Party shall have received notice
          of such service on any designated agent), but failure to notify the
          Company of any such claim shall not relieve the Company from any
          liability which it may have to the Indemnified Party against whom such
          action is brought otherwise than on account of this indemnification
          provision. In case any such action is brought against the Indemnified
          Parties, the Company shall be entitled to participate, at its own
          expense, in the defense of such action. The Company also shall be
          entitled to assume the defense thereof, with counsel satisfactory to
          the party named in the action. After notice from the Company to such
          party of the Company's election to assume the defense thereof, the
          Indemnified Party shall bear the fees and expenses of any additional
          counsel retained by it, and the Company will not be liable to such
          party under this Agreement for any legal or other expenses
          subsequently incurred by such party independently in connection with
          the defense thereof other than reasonable costs of investigation.

  7.1(d). The Indemnified Parties shall promptly notify the Company of the
          commencement of any litigation or proceedings against them in
          connection with the issuance or sale of the Fund shares or the
          Variable Contracts issued by the Company or the operation of the Fund.
<PAGE>

7.2  Indemnification By The Distributor

     7.2(a). The Distributor agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Company
             and each of its directors and officers and each person, if any, who
             is an affiliated person of the Company within the meaning of
             Section 2(a)(3) of the 1940 Act (collectively, the "Indemnified
             Parties" for purposes of this Section 7.2) against any and all
             losses, claims, damages, liabilities (including amounts paid in
             settlement with the written consent of the Distributor) or
             litigation expenses (including 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 litigation expenses are related to the sale or
             acquisition of the Fund's shares or the Variable Contracts issued
             by the Company and:

             (i)   arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement or
                   alleged untrue statement of any material fact contained in
                   the registration statement or prospectus or sales literature
                   of the Fund (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 the Distributor or the Fund or the

                   Contracts issued by the Company, or any amendment thereof or

<PAGE>

             except to the extent provided in Sections 7.2(b) and 7.2(c) hereof.

     7.2(b). The Distributor shall not be liable under this indemnification
             provision with respect to any losses, claims, damages, liabilities
             or litigation expenses to which an Indemnified Party would
             otherwise be subject by reason of willful misfeasance, bad faith,
             or gross negligence in the performance of his or her duties or by
             reason of his or her reckless disregard of obligations and duties
             under this Agreement or to the Company or the Separate Accounts.

     7.2(c). The Distributor shall not be liable under this indemnification
             provision with respect to any claim made against the Indemnified
             Party unless such Party shall have notified the Distributor in
             writing within a reasonable time after the summons or other first
             legal process giving information of the nature of the claim shall
             have been served upon such Indemnified Party (or after such Party
             shall have received notice of such service on any designated
             agent), but failure to notify the Distributor of any such claim
             shall not relieve the Distributor from any liability which it may
             have to the Indemnified Party against whom such action is brought
             otherwise than on account of this Indemnification Provision. In
             case any such action is brought against the Indemnified Parties,
             the Distributor will be entitled to participate, at its own
             expense, in the defense thereof. The Distributor also shall be
             entitled to assume the defense thereof, with counsel satisfactory
             to the party named in the action. After notice from the Distributor
             to such party of the Distributor's election to assume the defense
             thereof, the Indemnified Party shall bear the fees and expenses of
             any additional counsel retained by it, and the Distributor will not
             be liable to such party under this Agreement for any legal or other
             expenses subsequently incurred by such party independently in
             connection with the defense thereof other than reasonable costs of
             investigation.

     7.2(d). The Company shall promptly notify the Distributor of the
             commencement of any litigation or proceedings against it or any of
             its officers or directors in connection with the issuance or sale
             of the Variable Contracts issued by the Company or the operation of
             the Separate Accounts.

         issued by the Company, as determined by the Company, and upon prompt
         notice by the Company to the other parties; or

     (c) at the option of the Fund or the Distributor upon institution of formal
         proceedings against the Company or its agent by the NASD, the SEC, or

         body regarding the Company's duties under this Agreement or related to
         the sale of the Variable Contracts issued by the Company, the operation
         of the Separate Accounts, or the purchase of the Fund shares; or

     (d) at the option of the Company upon institution of formal proceedings
         against the Fund or the Distributor by the NASD, the SEC, or any state
         securities or insurance department or any other regulatory body; or

     (e) upon requisite vote of the Variable Contract Owners having an interest
         in the Separate Accounts (or any subaccounts thereof) to substitute the
         shares of another investment company for the corresponding shares of
         the Fund or a Portfolio in accordance with the terms of the Variable
         Contracts for which those shares had been selected to serve as the
         underlying investment media; or

     (f) in the event any of the shares of a Portfolio are not registered,
         issued or sold in accordance with applicable state and/or federal law,

         investment media of the Variable Contracts issued or to be issued by
         the Company; or

     proposed vote of Variable Contract Owners to replace the Fund's shares as
     described in Section 9.1(e) hereof.
<PAGE>

9.3  Except as necessary to implement Variable Contract Owner initiated
     transactions, or as required by state insurance laws or regulations, the
     Company shall not redeem Fund shares attributable to the Variable Contracts
     issued by the Company (as opposed to Fund shares attributable to the
     Company's assets held in the Separate Accounts), and the Company shall not
     prevent Variable Contract Owners from allocating payments to a Portfolio,
     until 60 days after the Company shall have notified the Fund or Distributor
     of its intention to do so.

9.4  If this Agreement terminates, any provision of this Agreement necessary to
     the orderly windup of business under it will remain in effect as to that
     business, after termination.

                              SERVICES AGREEMENT



     THIS Services Agreement ("Agreement") is made this     day of      1999, by
and between Pacific Life & Annuity Co. ("PL&A"), an Arizona corporation, and
Pacific Life Insurance Company (PLIC), a California corporation.

     WHEREAS, PL&A desires to provide such administrative services for certain
individual life, individual annuity, and institutional product contracts; and

     WHEREAS, PLIC desires to provide certain administrative services for PL&A
on the following terms and conditions;

     NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual promises and agreements
contained herein, the parties do mutually agree as follows:

1.  Services. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement,
    PLIC agrees with respect to certain PL&A contracts, specifically, any and
    all individual life, individual annuity, and institutional product contracts
    (collectively "the Contracts"), to provide the administrative services
    described in Schedule A, attached hereto and made a part hereof, together
    with such other services that PL&A may reasonably request (collectively "the
    Services") with respect to the Contracts.

2.  Charges for Services. As consideration for the Services provided by PLIC
    pursuant to this Agreement, PL&A agrees to pay PLIC a fee based on an
    estimation of actual costs, determined in a fair and reasonable manner,
    which costs will not include a profit factor and which will be allocated
    equitably in accordance with customary insurance accounting practices, where
    applicable, consistently applied.

3.  Subcontractors. PLIC may subcontract with any subsidiary or affiliate of
    PLIC to provide Services; provided that subcontracting shall not result in
    an increase in the amount charged for such Services or a decrease in the
    quality of such Services provided.

4.  Indemnification. PL&A agrees to defend, indemnify and hold PLIC harmless
    from and against all costs, reasonable expenses, losses, damages, attorneys'
    fees, claims, obligations and liabilities imposed upon, incurred or asserted
    against PLIC which arise out of or in any manner are connected with
    Contracts administered by PLIC under this Agreement, except if the conduct
    of PLIC constitutes an intentional tort, reckless conduct, gross negligence
    or bad faith, or if PLIC issues a Contract which is inconsistent with the
    approved policy specifications.

Services Agreement


5.  Underwriting and Claims Services. All underwriting and claims services
    provided to PL&A under this Agreement are to be based upon the written
    criteria, standard and guidelines of PL&A. PL&A shall have the ultimate and
    final authority over decisions and policies relating to the Contracts; to
    include but not be limited to the acceptance, rejection or canceling of
    risks relating to or with respect to such Contracts.

6.  Supervision by the Company. PLIC acknowledges that (a) the Board of
    Directors and officers of PL&A are vested with the power, authority, and
    responsibility for managing the business and affairs of PL&A, and (b) any
    and all actions taken or advice or services provided pursuant to this
    Agreement by PLIC are subject to the continuous supervision and approval of
    the Board of Directors and the officers of PL&A.

7.  Billing. All charges and advances made pursuant to this Agreement shall be
    billed by PLIC on a timely basis in the ordinary course of business and
    shall be 100 percent repaid to PLIC in the ordinary course of business, as
    soon as practicable. Interest may be assessed by PLIC at a market-based
    short-term borrowing rate. Billings shall be accompanied by sufficient
    documentation to support the charges and to meet all state insurance
    regulatory requirements. Statements are subject to final adjustment only if
    mutually agreed upon by both parties.

8.  Accounting Records and Documents.

(a) PLIC shall be responsible for maintaining full and accurate accounts and
    records of all services rendered pursuant to this Agreement. PLIC shall keep
    such account and records insofar as they pertain to the computation of
    charges hereunder available at its principal offices for audit, inspection,
    and copying, during reasonable business hours, by PL&A and persons
    authorized by it and any governmental agency having jurisdiction over PL&A.
(b) All books, records and files established and maintained by PLIC by reason of
    its performance under this Agreement which, absent this Agreement, would
    have been held by PL&A, shall be deemed the property of PL&A, and shall be
    subject to audit, inspection, and copying, during reasonable business hours,
    by PL&A and persons authorized by it and any governmental agency having
    jurisdiction over PL&A. All such books, records and files shall be promptly
    transferred to PL&A by PLIC upon termination of this Agreement, at PL&A's
    expense.

9.   Notices. All written notices, requests, and other communications hereunder
     shall be delivered to the addresses set forth on the signature page of this
     Agreement, or any address hereinafter agreed upon by the parties.

10.  Governing Law. This Agreement shall be construed and governed in accordance
     with the laws of the State of Arizona.

11.  Entire Agreement; Amendment. This Agreement shall constitute the entire
     agreement among the parties and supersedes all prior agreements and
     understandings, whether written or verbal, to the extent such agreements
     pertain to the rights and responsibilities set forth herein.
     Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Agreement does not supersede either of
     the Pacific Life Insurance Company Administrative Services Agreement with
     Pacific Life Insurance Company and its Subsidiaries and Affiliates dated
     September 1, 1997 and the Investment Management Agreement dated January 1,
     1990. This Agreement may be amended only in a writing executed by all
     parties.

12.  Arbitration. In the event any dispute arises between the parties related in
     any way to this Agreement on which agreement between the parties cannot be
     reached, the dispute shall be decided by arbitration in accordance with
     procedures agreed upon by the parties after such dispute arises.

13.  Termination. This Agreement may be terminated upon 60 days written notice
     by written agreement of the parties hereto. PL&A may terminate the contract
     in the event PLIC fails to perform its responsibilities hereunder in a
     satisfactory manner.

14.  Assignment. Except as set forth in Section 3 hereof, PLIC cannot assign its
     duties or obligation, in whole or in part, under this Agreement to any
     other firm, organization or individuals without the express written consent
     of PL&A, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld.

15.  Severability. To the extent this Agreement may be in conflict with any
     applicable law or regulation, this Agreement shall be construed in a manner
     consistent with such law or regulation. The invalidity or illegality of any
     provision of this Agreement shall not be deemed to affect the validity or
     legality of any other provision of this Agreement.

(DETACH-LEAVE WITH APPLICANT)
                 DISCLOSURE NOTICE TO APPLICANTS FOR INSURANCE

This brief description of our underwriting process is designed to help you to
understand how an application for insurance is handled, the types and sources of
information we may collect about you, the circumstances under which we may
disclose that information to others and your right to learn the nature and
substance of that information upon written request.  The purpose of the
underwriting process is to make sure you qualify for insurance under our rules,
and assuming you do, establish the proper premium charge for that insurance.
This process - the evaluation of risks - assures that the cost of insurance is
distributed equitably among all policyowners, and that each individual pays his
or her fair share.  To determine your insurability, we must consider such
factors as your medical history, physical condition, occupation and hazardous
avocations.  We get this information from various sources.

                             SOURCES OF INFORMATION

APPLICATION AND MEDICAL RECORDS - Your application, including the medical
history, is the primary source of information in the evaluation process.  In
addition, we may ask you to take a physical examination or other special test
such as an electrocardiogram.  We may also ask for a report from your doctor or
hospital, another insurance company, or the Medical Information Bureau.  When we
do so, we will use the authorization form you signed with your application.

MEDICAL INFORMATION BUREAU, INC. (MIB) is a non-profit corporation which
operates an information exchange on behalf of member life insurance companies.
As a member company, we will ask MIB if it has a record concerning you.  If you
previously applied to a member company for insurance, MIB may have information
about you in its file.  The purpose of the MIB is to protect member companies
and their policyowners from those who would conceal significant facts relevant
to their insurability.   The information which is obtained from MIB may be used
only as an alert to the possible need for further independent investigation.  It
cannot be used as a basis in making a final underwriting decision.

Information regarding your insurability will be treated as confidential. PL, its
subsidiaries or its reinsurer(s) may, however, make a brief report to the MIB.
If you later apply to another MIB member company for life or health insurance
coverage, or a claim for benefits is submitted to such a company, the MIB, upon
request, will supply the company with the information it may have about you in
its file. PL&A, its subsidiaries or its reinsurer(s) may also release
information in its file to other life insurance companies to whom you may apply
for life or health insurance, or to whom a claim for benefits may be submitted.

At your request, the MIB will arrange disclosure of any information it may have
about you in its file.  If you question the accuracy of information on file, you
may contact the MIB and seek a correction in accordance with the procedures set
forth in the federal Fair Credit Reporting Act.  The address of the information
office of MIB, Inc. is Post Office Box 105, Essex Station, Boston, Massachusetts
02112, telephone number (617) 426-3660.

INVESTIGATIVE CONSUMER REPORT - As part of our underwriting procedure, we may
request an investigative consumer report from a consumer reporting agency.
Because you may want to know more about the nature and scope of such a report,
we are providing this information on the reverse side as part of this Notice.

                          (Continued on reverse side)

           DISCLOSURE NOTICE TO APPLICANTS FOR INSURANCE (CONTINUED)

A consumer report confirms and supplements the information of your application
pertaining to employment and residence verification, smoking habits, marital
status, occupation, hazardous avocations and general health.  This report may
also cover information concerning your general reputation, personal
characteristics and mode of living (except as may be related directly or
indirectly to your sexual orientation) including drug and alcohol use, motor
vehicle driving record and any criminal activity.  This information may be
obtained through personal interviews with you, your family, friends, neighbors
and business associates.  If a report is required and you wish to be personally
interviewed, please let us know and we will notify the consumer reporting
agency.

The information contained in the report may be retained by the consumer
reporting agency and subsequently disclosed to other companies to the extent
permitted by the Fair Credit Reporting Act.

Investigative consumer reports are held in strict confidence and used only to
evaluate your application on a fair and equitable basis.  You have a right to
inspect and obtain a copy of the report from the consumer reporting agency.
These reports may have an adverse affect on an individual's eligibility for
insurance.  If it should, however, we will notify you in writing and identify
the reporting agency.

                              DISCLOSURE TO OTHERS

Personal information obtained about you during the underwriting process is
confidential and will not be disclosed to other persons or organizations without
your written authorization except to the extent necessary for the conduct of our
business.  Examples of situations where we may share information about you are
as follows:

    1.  The agent may retain a copy of your application.
    2.  If reinsurance is required, the reinsurance company would have access to
        our application file.
    3.  We may release information to another life insurance company to whom you
        have applied for life or health insurance or to whom you have submitted
        a claim for benefits, if you have authorized it to obtain such
        information.
    4.  As stated earlier, we may report information to the Medical Information
        Bureau.
    5.  We will disclose information to government regulatory officials, law
        enforcement authorities and others where required by law.

                               DISCLOSURE TO YOU

In general, you have a right to learn the nature and substance of any personal
information about you in our file upon written request.  Whenever an adverse
underwriting decision is made, we will notify you of the reason(s) for the
decision and the source of the information upon which our action is based.
Medical record information, however, will normally be given only to a licensed
physician of your choice.  Please refer to the section on MIB, Inc., for that
organization's disclosure procedure.

Should you feel that any information we have is inaccurate or incomplete, please
write to the Manager, Risk Selection Department, Pacific Life & Annuity Company,
Service Center, 700 Newport Center Drive, Newport Beach, California 92660. Your
comments will be carefully considered and corrections made where justified.

We hope this Notice will help you to understand how we obtain and use personal
information in the underwriting process, and the ways you can learn about this
information.  We are concerned with insuring privacy as well as lives, and the
collection, use and disclosure of personal information is limited to those
specified in this Notice.

Pacific Life & Annuity Company

Newport Beach, CA  92660

Dear Sirs:

In my capacity as Senior Vice President and General Counsel of Pacific Life &
Annuity Company ("PL&A") I, or attorneys employed by PL&A under my general
supervision, have supervised the establishment of Pacific Select Exec Separate
Account of Pacific Life & Annuity Company on September 24, 1998, which has been
authorized by resolutions of the Board of Directors of PL&A adopted July 1,
1998, concerning Pacific Select Exec Separate Account as the separate account
for assets applicable to Pacific Select Exec II-NY Flexible Premium Variable
Universal Life Insurance Policies ("Policies"), pursuant to the provisions of
A.R.S. Sections 20-2606, 250-651, 20-515, and 20-536.01 of the Insurance Code of
the State of Arizona. Moreover, I have been associated with the preparation of
the Registration Statement on Form S-6 ("Registration Statement") filed by PL&A
and Pacific Select Exec Separate Account (File No. pending) with the Securities
and Exchange Commission under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, for the
registration of interests in the Pacific Select Exec Separate Account funding
the Policies.

I have made such examination of the law and examined such corporate records and
such other documents as in my judgment are necessary and appropriate to enable
me to render the following opinion that:

       1.  PL&A has been duly organized under the laws of the State of
           Arizona and is a validly existing corporation.

       2.  Pacific Select Exec Separate Account is duly created and validly
           existing as a separate account, pursuant to the aforesaid provisions
           of Arizona law.

       3.  The portion of the assets to be held in Pacific Select Exec Separate
           Account equal to the reserves and other liabilities under the
           Policies and any other policies issued by PL&A that are supported
           by Pacific Select Exec Separate Account is not chargeable with
           liabilities arising out of any other business PL&A may conduct.

       4.  The Policies have been duly authorized by PL&A and, when issued
           as contemplated by the Registration Statement, will constitute legal,
           validly issued and binding obligations of PL&A, except as limited
           by bankruptcy and insolvency laws affecting the right of creditors
           generally.

I hereby consent to the filing of this opinion as an exhibit to the Registration
Statement.

Very truly yours,

RE:  Pacific Select Exec II-NY Flexible Premium Variable Life Insurance Policy

To whom it may concern:

In my capacity as Vice President, Individual Insurance of Pacific Life & Annuity
Company, I have provided actuarial advice concerning:

The preparation of the Registration Statement on Form S-6 filed by Pacific Life
& Annuity Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission under the
Securities Act of 1933 with respect to variable life insurance policies (the
"Registration Statement") and the preparation of the policy forms for the
variable life insurance policies described in the Registration Statement (the
"Policies").

It is my professional opinion that:

The illustration of death benefits, cash values and accumulated premiums shown
in the Appendix to the prospectus, based on the assumptions stated in the
illustrations and on the page immediately preceding the illustrations, are
consistent with the provisions of the Policies.  The rate structure of the
Policies has not been designed so as to make the relationship between premiums
and benefits, as shown in the illustrations, appear to be correspondingly more
favorable to the prospective purchaser of the policies at age 45 in the
underwriting classes illustrated than to prospective purchasers of Policies at
other ages or underwriting classes.

I hereby consent to the filing of this opinion as an exhibit to the Registration
Statement.

Sincerely,

/s/GARY FALDE

                       PACIFIC LIFE & ANNUITY COMPANY'S
               DESCRIPTION OF ISSUANCE, TRANSFER AND REDEMPTION
                      PROCEDURES FOR POLICIES PURSUANT TO
                           RULE 6e-3(T)(b)(12)(iii)

     This document sets forth the administrative procedures that will be
followed by Pacific Life & Annuity Company ("PL&A") in connection with the
issuance of its Pacific Select Exec II-NY Flexible Premium Variable Life
Insurance Policy ("Policy"), the transfer of assets held under the Policies, and
the redemption by Policy owners of their interests in said Policies.

I.   PURCHASE AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS

     A.  Premium Schedules and Underwriting Standards
         --------------------------------------------

     The Policy is a flexible premium variable life insurance policy.  The
Policy provides lifetime insurance protection for the insured named in the
Policy, with a death benefit payable when the insured dies while the Policy is
in force.  A Policy owner may elect one of two death benefit qualification tests
and one of three options to calculate the amount of death benefit payable under
the Policy.  The Policy will be offered and sold pursuant to an established
mortality structure and underwriting standards in accordance with state
insurance laws which prohibit unfair discrimination among Policy owners, but
allow cost of insurance rates to be based upon factors such as age, health or
occupation.

     A Policy owner may choose the amount and frequency of premium payments,
subject to a minimum of $50 per payment.

     B.  Application and Initial Premium Processing
         ------------------------------------------

     Upon receipt of a completed application for a Policy, PM Group will follow
certain insurance underwriting (i.e., evaluation of risk) procedures designed to
determine whether the proposed insured is insurable. This process may involve
verification procedures and may require that further information be provided by
the applicant before a determination can be made. PL&A will first become
obligated under a Policy when the total initial premium is received or on the
date the application is accepted by PL&A, whichever is later.

     After the Policy is issued, insurance coverage under the Policy will be
deemed to have begun as of the Policy Date. The Policy Date is usually the date
that the Policy is issued. The Policy Date is the date used to determine Policy
years, Policy months, and Policy monthly, quarterly, semi-annual and annual
anniversaries.

     C.  Additional Premium Payments
         ---------------------------

     The Policy is a flexible premium policy, and it provides flexibility to pay
premiums at the Policy owner's discretion.  When applying for a Policy, a Policy
owner will determine a planned periodic premium that provides for the payment of
level premiums of fixed intervals over a specified period of time.  Each Policy
owner will receive a premium reminder notice or listbill on either an annual,
semi-annual, or quarterly basis (or monthly (listbill only)), at the option of
the Policy owner; however, the Policy owner is not required to pay planned
periodic premiums.

          Payment of the planned periodic premium will not guarantee that a
Policy will remain in force.  Instead, the duration of the Policy depends upon
the Policy's accumulated value.  Even if planned periodic premiums are paid, the
Policy will lapse any time accumulated value less Policy debt is
<PAGE>

insufficient to pay the current monthly deduction and a grace period expires
without sufficient payment. Any premium payment must be for at least $50. PL&A
also may reject or limit any premium payment that would result in an immediate
increase in the net amount at risk under the Policy, although such a premium may
be accepted with satisfactory evidence of insurability.

     D.  Premium Allocation
         ------------------

     A Policy owner may allocate net premiums among the variable accounts and/or
the fixed accounts. When a Policy is issued and all delivery requirements are
received at PL&A's Service Center, the Accumulated Value will be automatically
allocated according to the Policy owner's instructions in the application or
more recent instructions if any (except for amounts allocated to the Loan
Account to secure any Debt). The initial allocation must be made in the
application for the Policy. All net premiums are allocated to the Policy owner's
instructions the later of 15 days after the Policy is issued or when all
requirements for the Policy to be considered in force are delivered to the
Service Center (the Free-Look Transfer Date).

     Additional net premium payments will be allocated among the investment
alternatives according to the Policy owner's instructions (after the Free-Look
Transfer Date). A Policy owner may change the allocation of accumulated value by
submitting a proper written request to PL&A's Service Center.

     PL&A reserves the right to limit the amount allocated to the Fixed LT
Account to $1,000,000 during the most recent 12 months for all of a Policy
owner's policies. Allocations include net premium payments, transfers and loan
repayments. Any excess over $1,000,000 would be transferred to a Policy owner's
other Investment Options according to the Policy owner's most recent
instructions.

     E.  Reinstatement
         -------------

     PL&A will reinstate a lapsed Policy (see "Policy Lapsation", Section III.C.
of this document) at any time within five years after the end of the grace
period, provided PL&A receives the following: (1) a written application of the
Policy owner; (2) evidence of insurability satisfactory to PL&A for each
insured; and (3) payment of all monthly charges and deductions that were due and
unpaid during the grace period, and payment of a premium at least equal to three
times the most recent monthly deduction.

     When the Policy is reinstated, the accumulated value will be equal to the
accumulated value on the date of the lapse subject to the following: (1) if the
Policy is reinstated after the first monthly payment date following lapse, the
accumulated value will be reduced by the amount of the Policy debt on the date
of lapse and no Policy debt will exist on the date of reinstatement; (2) if the
Policy is reinstated on the monthly payment date next following lapse, any
Policy debt on the date of lapse will also be reinstated; and (3) no interest on
amounts held in PL&A's Loan Account so secure Policy debt will be paid or
credited between lapse and reinstatement.

     Reinstatement will be effective as of the monthly payment date on or next
following the date of approval by PL&A, and accumulated value minus Policy debt
will be allocated among the variable accounts and the fixed options in
accordance with the Policy owner's current premium allocation instructions.
<PAGE>

     F.  Policy Loans
         ------------

     A Policy owner may borrow from PL&A an amount up to the greater of 90% of
the Policy's accumulated value, less any outstanding Policy debt and any
surrender charges, or (2) 100% of the product of (a x b/c - d) where (a) equals
the Policy's accumulated value less 12 times the current monthly deduction; (b)
equals 1 plus the annual loan interest rate credited; (c) equals 1 plus the
annual loan interest rate currently charged; and (d) equals any existing Policy
debt. The minimum loan that may be taken is $200. A Policy is the only security
required for a loan.

     When a Policy owner takes a loan, an amount equal to the loan is
transferred out of the Policy owner's accumulated value in the variable accounts
and the fixed options on a proportional basis, unless the Policy owner
instructs PL&A otherwise.

     The interest rate on loans is 3.55% annually for all years. PL&A will
credit interest monthly on amounts held in the Loan Account to secure the loan
at an annual rate of 3.00% in Policy years 1 through 10, and 3.3% in Policy year
11 and thereafter. The owner may repay all or a part of the loan at any time
while the Policy is in force. If not repaid, the Policy debt will reduce the
amount of death proceeds paid upon the death of the insured, the cash surrender
value paid upon surrender, or the refund of premium upon exercise of the Free-
Look Right.

A loan may affect the length of time the Policy remains in force.  The Policy
will lapse when accumulated value minus Policy debt is insufficient to cover the
monthly deduction against the Policy's accumulated value on any monthly payment
date and the minimum payment required is not made during the grace period.
Moreover, the Policy may enter the grace period more quickly when a loan is
outstanding, because the loaned amount is not available to cover monthly
deductions.

II.  TRANSFER AMONG INVESTMENT OPTIONS

     The Pacific Select Exec Separate Account (the "Separate Account") is a
separate investment account of PL&A used to support the variable death benefits
and policy values of PL&A's life insurance policies. The Separate Account
currently is made up of eighteen variable accounts which invest in shares of a
corresponding portfolio of Pacific Select Fund (the "Fund"), the investment
vehicle of the Separate Account. The Fund is registered with the Securities and
Exchange Commission under the Investment Company Act of 1940 as an open-end
management investment company of the series type. The portfolios of the Fund,
each of which has a different investment objective, are the Money Market
Portfolio, the High Yield Bond Portfolio, the Managed Bond Portfolio, the
Government Securities Portfolio, the Growth Portfolio, the Aggressive Equity
Portfolio, the Growth LT Portfolio, the Equity Income Portfolio, the Multi-
Strategy Portfolio, the Mid-Cap Value Portfolio, the Large-Cap Value Portfolio,
the Equity Portfolio, the Bond and Income Portfolio, the Equity Index Portfolio,
the Small-Cap Index Portfolio, the REIT Portfolio, the International Portfolio,
and the Emerging Markets Portfolio.

     A Policy owner may allocate accumulated value from the variable accounts to
the fixed options.  However, such a transfer will only be permitted in the
Policy month preceding a Policy anniversary, except that such a transfer may be
made at any time during the first 18 Policy months.  Transfers from the fixed
options to the variable accounts are also permitted, subject to the following
restrictions:  (1) the Policy owner may not make more than one transfer from the
fixed options to the variable accounts in any 12-month period; and (2) the
Policy owner may transfer no more than the greater of 25% of the Accumulated
Value in the Fixed Account or $5,000 to the Variable Accounts in any 12-month
period, and no more than the greater of  10% of the Accumulated Value in the
Fixed LT Account or $5,000 to the Variable Accounts.
<PAGE>

     PL&A reserves the right to limit the amount allocated to the Fixed LT
Account to $1,000,000 during the most recent 12 months for all of a Policy
owner's policies. Allocations include net premium payments, transfers and loan
repayments. Any excess over $1,000,000 would be transferred to a Policy owner's
other Investment Options according to the Policy owner's most recent
instructions.

III. REDEMPTION PROCEDURES: SURRENDER AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS

     A.  Surrender for Net Cash Surrender Value
         --------------------------------------

     A Policy owner can make partial withdrawals of the net cash surrender value
of the Policy starting on the first Policy anniversary.  During the first
fifteen Policy years, the portion of a partial withdrawal of up to the lesser of
$10,000 or 10% of premium paid will not reduce the face amount under the Policy.
The excess of any withdrawal over this amount may cause a reduction in Face
Amount if the Death Benefit Option is Option A, as described below.

     A partial withdrawal must be for at least $200, and the Policy's net cash
surrender value after the withdrawal must be at least $500. If there is any
Policy debt, the maximum partial withdrawal amount is limited to the excess, if
any, of the cash surrender value immediately prior to the withdrawal over the
result of the Policy debt divided by 90%.

     When a partial withdrawal is made on a Policy on which the owner has
selected Death benefit Option A, the face amount under the Policy is decreased
by the excess, if any, of the face amount over the result of the death benefit
immediately prior to the partial withdrawal minus the amount of the partial
withdrawal.  A partial withdrawal will not change the face amount of a Policy on
which the owner has selected Death Benefit Option B or Death Benefit Option C.
However, assuming that the death benefit is not equal to accumulated value times
a death benefit percentage, the partial withdrawal will reduce the death benefit
by the amount of the partial withdrawal.  To the extent the death benefit is
based upon the accumulated value times the death benefit percentage applicable
to the insureds, a partial withdrawal may cause the death benefit to decrease by
an amount greater than the amount of the partial withdrawal.

     B.  Death Claims
         ------------

     Upon the death of the insured, PL&A will pay to a named beneficiary death
benefit proceeds, either in a lump sum or under a payment plan offered under the
Policy. The proceeds will be the death benefit under the Policy, plus any
insurance proceeds provided by rider, reduced by adjustments for any outstanding
Policy debt (and, if in the grace period, any overdue charges).

     The death benefit will be the greater of the Guideline Minimum Death
Benefit or one of the following three options: (1) Death Benefit Option A -- the
face amount of the Policy; (2) Death Benefit Option B -- the face amount of the
Policy plus the accumulated value; or (3) Death Benefit Option C -- the face
amount of the Policy plus the total premiums paid minus total withdrawals.
Because of the Guideline Minimum Death Benefit, an increase in accumulated value
may increase the death benefit.

     The face amount of the Policy may be decreased by the Policy owner. Such a
change may change the death benefit, depending, among other things, upon the
death benefit option chosen by the owner and whether, and the degree to which,
the death benefit under a Policy exceeds the face amount prior to the change. A
change in the face amount may affect the net amount at risk under a Policy,
which may affect a Policy owner's cost of insurance charge. For these purposes,
the net amount at risk is equal to the death benefit less the policy owner's
accumulated value.
<PAGE>

     Any request for a change in face amount must be by written application to
PL&A's Service Center. A Policy owner may make only one such request per Policy
year.

     C.  Policy Lapsation
         ----------------

     If the accumulated value less Policy debt of a Policy is insufficient to
cover deductions and charges on a monthly payment date, PL&A will give written
notice to the Policy owner that if the amount shown in the notice (which will be
sufficient to cover the deduction amount(s) due) is not paid within 61 days (the
"grace period"), the Policy owner faces a danger of lapse. The Policy will
remain in force through the grace period, but if no payment is forthcoming, it
will terminate at the end of the grace period. In order to avoid termination,
the Policy owner must pay an amount equal to three times the charges and
deductions due on the monthly payment date in which the insufficiency occurred.

     If the required payment is made during the grace period, such payment will
be allocated among the variable accounts and the fixed options in accordance
with the Policy owner's allocation instructions. If the survivor dies during the
grace period, the death benefit proceeds will equal the amount of the death
benefit immediately prior to the commencement of the grace period, reduced by
any unpaid monthly deductions and charges due and any Policy debt.

     A lapsed Policy may be reinstated at any time within five years after the
end of the grace period but before the maturity date. See "Reinstatement",
Section I.E. above.

     D.  Policy Loans
         ------------

     See Section I.F. above.
