This supplement replaces An Overview of Pacific Select Variable Annuity: Fees
and Expenses Paid by the Pacific Select Fund: Other Expenses with the
following:
Other Expenses
The table also shows the Fund expenses for each
Portfolio based on expenses in 1999, adjusted to
reflect recently reduced custody fees. To help limit
Fund expenses, effective July 1, 2000 we have
contractually agreed to waive all or part of our
investment advisory fees or otherwise reimburse each
Portfolio for operating expenses (including
organizational expenses, but not including advisory
fees, additional costs associated with foreign
investing and extraordinary expenses) that exceed an
annual rate of 0.10% of its average daily net assets.
Such waiver or reimbursement is subject to repayment to
us to the extent such expenses fall below the 0.10%
expense cap. For each Portfolio, our right to repayment
is limited to amounts waived and/or reimbursed that
exceed the new 0.10% expense cap, but do not exceed the
previously established 0.25% expense cap. Any amounts
repaid to us will have the effect of increasing
expenses of the Portfolio, but not above the 0.10%
expense cap. There is no guarantee that we will
continue to cap expenses after December 31, 2001. In
1999, Pacific Life reimbursed the Small-Cap Index
Portfolio $96,949.

/1/ Total adjusted net expenses for these Portfolios in
1999, after deduction of an offset for custodian
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
Portfolio.
/2/ Expenses are estimated. There were no actual
advisory fees or expenses for these Portfolios in
1999 because the Portfolios started after December
31, 1999.
/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 actual advisory fee and total adjusted net
expenses for this Portfolio in 1999, after
deduction of an offset for custodian credits, were
0.16% and 0.19%, respectively.
+ 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.

Examples is amended The following is added to Examples:
Different examples are presented below that show
expenses that an Owner of a Contract with Accumulated
Value allocated to a Variable Account would pay at the
end of one, three, five or ten years if, at the end of
those time periods, the Contract is (1) surrendered,
(2) annuitized, (3) not surrendered or annuitized. The
examples assume a $1000 investment and a 5% annual rate
of return. In addition, the examples reflect an average
initial premium of approximately $45,000 and a prorata
portion of the annual Maintenance Fee. Each example
shows expenses based upon allocation to each of the
Variable Accounts.
The examples below should not be considered a
representation of past or future expenses. Actual
expenses may be greater or lesser than those shown. The
5% return assumed in the examples is hypothetical and
should not be considered a representation of past or
future actual returns, which may be greater or lesser
than the assumed amount.
