is no longer
available There will be no charge on transfers for at least 60
days from that date. Thereafter, Pacific Life reserves
the right to impose transfer fees for transfers as
stated in the prospectus, but there is no current plan
to do so. Any transfer made during this time will not
count toward any limitation we may impose on the number
of transfers you may make annually.
All references to the Bond and Income variable account,
investment option or portfolio are removed. References
to the 21 variable investment options throughout the
prospectus are changed to refer to 22 variable
investment options.
Unless you instruct us otherwise, to the extent any
outstanding instruction you have on file with us
designates the Bond and Income investment option, the
instruction will be deemed an instruction for the
Managed Bond investment option. This includes, but is
not limited to, instructions for net premium
allocations, transfer instructions (including
instructions under any automatic transfer, portfolio
rebalancing and dollar cost averaging programs), and
partial withdrawal and monthly deduction instructions.

1999, Pacific Life reimbursed the Small-Cap Index

credits were: 1.28% for Emerging Markets Portfolio,
0.64% for Managed Bond Portfolio, 0.38% for Money
Market Portfolio, and 0.64% for High Yield Bond

/3/ Total adjusted net expenses for the Equity Index
Portfolio in 1999, after deduction of an offset for
custodian credits, were 0.28%. The advisory fee for
the portfolio has also been adjusted to reflect the
advisory fee increase effective January 1, 2000.

+ The fund has adopted a brokerage enhancement 12b-1
plan, under which brokerage transactions may be
placed with broker-dealers in return for credits,
cash, or other compensation that may be used to
help promote distribution of fund shares. There are
no fees or charges to any portfolio under this
plan, although the fund's distributor may defray
expenses of up to approximately $300,000 for the
year 2000, which it might otherwise incur for
distribution. If such defrayed amount were
considered a fund expense, it would represent
approximately .0023% or less of any portfolio's
average daily net assets.
