* Expenses are estimated. There were no actual advisory
fees or other expenses for this portfolio in 1999
because the portfolio has not yet started. See Fees
and Expenses Paid by the Pacific Select Fund in the
prospectus for information about expense caps through
December 31, 2000 for this portfolio.
+ The Fund has implemented a brokerage enhancement
12b-1 plan, under which brokerage transactions may be
placed with broker-dealers in return for credits that
may be used to help promote distribution of Fund
shares. There are no fees or charges to any portfolio
under this plan, although the Fund's distributor may
defray expenses which it would otherwise incur for
distribution. If you assume the credits are a direct
Fund expense, the expense would have no effect on

amended
You may instruct us to allocate all or part of your net
premiums to the I-Net Tollkeeper investment option on
or after May 1, 2000. You may not instruct us to
allocate your net premiums to this investment option
prior to May 1, 2000, when the option first becomes
available. Your net premium or policy's accumulated
value may be invested in up to 20 investment options at
any one time.

Transfers of This information is added to the discussion in the
Accumulated Value prospectus on Transfers of Accumulated Value.
is amended
You may instruct us to transfer accumulated value to a
variable investment option and specify a future date on
which the accumulated value is to be transferred. This
instruction may cover any variable investment option
currently available under your contract and the I-Net
Tollkeeper investment option, subject to the limitation
on investment options described above. For the I-Net
Tollkeeper investment option, you may not specify a
date prior to May 1, 2000, when the option first
becomes available. If you specify May 1, 2000 for the
I-Net Tollkeeper investment option, and we receive the
instructions prior to that date, the requested amount
will be transferred effective as of the close of
business on May 1, 2000, or, if we hold your net
premiums in the Money Market investment option, your
free-look transfer date, whichever is later. You may
revoke your transfer instructions at any time before we
transfer accumulated value by providing us with a
revocation in proper form, which we must receive no
later than 4:00 p.m. Eastern time on the last business
day before the date you have specified for a transfer.
While highly remote, there is a possibility that the I-
Net Tollkeeper investment option will not become
effective on May 1, 2000, in which case we would not
effect the transfer to this option, and your
accumulated value would remain in the investment option
from which you requested it be transferred until the
day the I-Net Tollkeeper becomes effective, if ever, or
your free-look transfer date, unless you instruct us
otherwise.
