PART II
UNDERTAKING TO FILE REPORTS
Subject to the terms and conditions of Section 15(d) of the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934, the Registrant hereby undertakes to file with the
Securities and Exchange Commission such supplementary and periodic information,
documents, and Reports as may be prescribed by any rule or regulation of the
Commission heretofore, or hereafter duly adopted pursuant to authority conferred
in that Section.
RULE 484 UNDERTAKING
The By-Laws of MONY Life Insurance Company of America ("MONY America")
provide, in Article VI as follows:
SECTION 1. The Corporation shall indemnify any existing or former
director, officer, employee or agent of the Corporation against all
expenses incurred by them and each of them which may arise or be incurred,
rendered or levied in any legal action brought or threatened 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, officer,
employee or agent of the Corporation, whether or not any action is or has
been filed against them and whether or not any settlement or compromise is
approved by a court, all subject and pursuant to the provisions of the
Articles of Incorporation of this Corporation.
SECTION 2. The indemnification provided in this By-Law shall not be
deemed exclusive of any other rights to which those seeking indemnification
may be entitled under By-Law, agreement, vote of stockholders or
disinterested directors or otherwise, both as to action in his official
capacity and as to action in another capacity while holding office, and
shall continue as to a person who has ceased to be a director, officer,
employee or agent and shall inure to the benefit of the heirs, executors
and administrators of such a person.
Insofar as indemnification for liability arising under the Securities Act
of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the
Registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the Registrant
has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission
such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Act and is,
therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification for such
liabilities (other than the payment by the Registrant of expense incurred or
paid by a director, officer, or controlling person of the Registrant in the
successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such
director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being
registered, the Registrant, will (unless in the opinion of its counsel the
matter has been settled by controlling precedent) submit to a court of
appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is
against public policy as expressed in the Act and will be governed by the final
adjudication of such issue.
REPRESENTATIONS RELATING TO RULE 6E-3(T)
To the extent that Rule 6e-3(T) may be deemed not to have implicitly been
amended as a result of the amendment of Sections 26 and 27 of the Investment
Company Act of 1940 by Section 205 of the National Securities Markets
Improvement Act of 1996, the Registrant represents:
1. This filing is made pursuant to Rules 6c-3 and 6e-3(T) under the
Investment Company Act of 1940.
2. The Registrant elects to be governed by Rule 6e-3(T)(b)(13)(iii)(F)
under the Investment Company Act of 1940.
3. Section 6e-3(T)(b)(13)(iii)(F) is being relied upon.
4. The level of the mortality and expense risk charge is within the range
of industry practice for comparable flexible contracts.
5. The proceeds from explicit sales loads will cover the expected costs of
distributing the Policies.

The methodology used to support the representation made in paragraph 4
above is based on an analysis of flexible premium variable life policies
submitted to the Commission and currently available for sale which contain
similar guarantees and are sold in similar markets. Registrant undertakes to
keep and make available to the Commission on request the documents used to
support the representation in paragraph 4 above.
REPRESENTATIONS RELATING TO SECTION 26
OF THE INVESTMENT COMPANY ACT OF 1940
Registrant and MONY Life Insurance Company of America represent that the
fees and charges deducted under the contract, in the aggregate, are reasonable
in relation to the services rendered, the expenses expected to be incurred, and
the risks assumed by MONY Life Insurance Company of America.
