ON PAGE 34 IS AMENDED TO READ AS FOLLOWS:
The Company assumes mortality and expense risks. A charge for assuming such
risks is deducted daily from the net assets of Variable Account A. This
daily charge from MONY Variable Account A is deducted at a current daily
rate equivalent to an annual rate of 1.35% from the value of the net assets
of MONY Variable Account A. Of the 1.35% charge, .90% is for assuming
mortality risks (which is guaranteed not to exceed .90%), and .45% is for
assuming expense risks. The charge is deducted from MONY Variable Account
A, and therefore the subaccounts, on each Business Day. These charges will
not be deducted from the Guaranteed Interest Account. Where the previous
day (or days) was not a Business Day, the deduction currently on the next
Business Day will be 0.003699% (guaranteed not to exceed 0.003699%)
multiplied by the number of days since the last Business Day.
