WHAT ARE THE INVESTMENT OBJECTIVES AND POLICIES OF THE PORTFOLIOS?
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The First Trust(R) 10 Uncommon Values Portfolio of the First Defined Portfolio
Fund LLC invests in the securities of a relatively few number of issuers. Since
the assets of the Portfolio are invested in a limited number of issuers, the net
asset value of the Portfolio may be more susceptible to a single adverse
economic, political or regulatory occurrence. The Portfolio may also be subject
to additional market risk due to its policy of investing based on an investment
strategy and generally not buying or selling securities in response to market
fluctuations. The Portfolio's relative lack of diversity and limited ongoing
management may subject Owners to greater market risk than other portfolios.

First Trust(R)10 Uncommon Values: seeks to provide
above-average capital appreciation. The Portfolio pursues
its objective by investing primarily in the ten common
stocks selected by the Investment Policy Committee of Lehman
Brothers Inc. ("Lehman Brothers") with the assistance of the First Trust
STRATEGY Research Department of Lehman Brothers which, in their Advisors L.P.
opinion have the greatest potential for capital appreciation
during the next year. The stock selection date for the
Portfolio is on or about July 1st of each year. The holdings
for the Portfolio will be adjusted annually on or about July
1st in accordance with the selections of Lehman Brothers. At
that time, the percentage relationship among the shares of
each issuer held by the Portfolio is established. Through
the next one-year period that percentage will be maintained
as closely as practicable when the Portfolio makes
subsequent purchases and sales of the securities.

Item 25. Directors and Officers of the Depositor: The Directors and Officers of
the Depositor are shown in Part A.
Item 26. Persons Controlled by or Under Common Control with the Depositor or
Registrant: The Depositor does not directly or indirectly control any person.
The following persons are under common control with the Depositor by American
Skandia Inc.:
(1) American Skandia Information Services and Technology
Corporation ("ASIST"): The organization is a general business
corporation organized in the State of Delaware. Its primary
purpose is to provide various types of business services to
American Skandia Inc. and all of its subsidiaries including
computer systems acquisition, development and maintenance,
human resources acquisition, development and management,
accounting and financial reporting services and general office
services.
(2) American Skandia Marketing, Incorporated ("ASM, Inc."): The
organization is a general business corporation organized in
the State of Delaware. It was formed primarily for the purpose
of acting as a broker-dealer in securities. It acts as the
principal "underwriter" of annuity contracts deemed to be
securities, as required by the Securities and Exchange
Commission, which insurance policies are to be issued by
American Skandia Life Assurance Corporation. It provides
securities law supervisory services in relation to the
marketing of those products of American Skandia Life Assurance
Corporation registered as securities. It also may provide such
services in relation to marketing of certain public mutual
funds. It also has the power to carry on a general financial,
securities, distribution, advisory, or investment advisory
business; to act as a general agent or broker for insurance
companies and to render advisory, managerial, research and
consulting services for maintaining and improving managerial
efficiency and operation.
(3) American Skandia Investment Services, Incorporated ("ASISI"):
The organization is a general business corporation organized
in the state of Connecticut. The organization is authorized to
provide investment service and investment management advice in
connection with the purchasing, selling, holding or exchanging
of securities or other assets to insurance companies,
insurance-related companies, mutual funds or business trusts.
It's primary role is expected to be as investment manager for
certain mutual funds to be made available primarily through
the variable insurance products of American Skandia Life
Assurance Corporation.
(4) Skandia Vida: This subsidiary American Skandia Life Assurance
Corporation was organized in March, 1995, and began operations
in July, 1995. It offers investment oriented life insurance
products designed for long-term savings through independent
banks and brokers.
Item 27. Number of Contract Owners: As of December 31, 1999, there were
3,003 [15] owners of Annuities.
Item 28. Indemnification: Under Section 33-320a of the Connecticut General
Statutes, the Depositor must indemnify a director or officer against judgments,
fines, penalties, amounts paid in settlement and reasonable expenses including
attorneys' fees, for actions brought or threatened to be brought against him in
his capacity as a director or officer when certain disinterested parties
determine that he acted in good faith and in a manner he reasonably believed to
be in the best interests of the Depositor. In any criminal action or proceeding,
it also must be determined that the director or officer had no reason to believe
his conduct was unlawful. The director or officer must also be indemnified when
he is successful on the merits in the defense of a proceeding or in
circumstances where a court determines that he is fairly and reasonable entitled
to be indemnified, and the court approves the amount. In shareholder derivative
suits, the director or officer must be finally adjudged not to have breached
this duty to the Depositor or a court must determine that he is fairly and
reasonably entitled to be indemnified and must approve the amount. In a claim
based upon the director's or officer's purchase or sale of the Registrants'
securities, the director or officer may obtain indemnification only if a court
determines that, in view of all the circumstances, he is fairly and reasonably
entitled to be indemnified and then for such amount as the court shall
determine. The By-Laws of American Skandia Life Assurance Corporation ("ASLAC")
also provide directors and officers with rights of indemnification, consistent
with Connecticut Law.
The foregoing statements are subject to the provisions of Section 33-320a.
Directors and officers of ASLAC and ASM, Inc. can also be indemnified pursuant
to indemnity agreements between each director and officer and American Skandia
Inc., a corporation organized under the laws of the state of Delaware. The
provisions of the indemnity agreement are governed by Section 45 of the General
Corporation Law of the State of Delaware.
The directors and officers of ASLAC and ASM, Inc. are covered under a directors
and officers liability insurance policy issued by an unaffiliated insurance
company to Skandia Insurance Company Ltd., their ultimate parent. Such policy
will reimburse ASLAC or ASM, Inc. as applicable, for any payments that it shall
make to directors and officers pursuant to law and, subject to certain
exclusions contained in the policy, will pay any other costs, charges and
expenses, settlements and judgments arising from any proceeding involving any
director or officer of ASLAC or ASM, Inc., as applicable, in his or her past or
present capacity as such.
Registrant hereby undertakes as follows: Insofar as indemnification for
liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 (the "Act") may be
permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of Registrant pursuant
to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, 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, therefore, is unenforceable.
In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other
than the payment by Registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director,
officer or controlling person of 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, unless in the opinion
of Registrant's counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent,
Registrant will 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.
