amend the Agreement as follows:


 


1.             Provision
of Fund Documents; Website Posting.


 


(a).
           Fund Documents. In order to assist the Company in the Company’s
compliance with the Rules, including the Company’s obligation to host certain documents on its website (the
“Company’s Website”), the Fund will provide or make available to the Company the “Fund
Documents,” listed below as specified in paragraph (b)(1) of Rule 30e-3 and paragraph (j)(1)(iii) of Rule 498A.


 


		(i)	Summary Prospectus for each of the Portfolios
[Rule 498A(j)(1)(iii)];



 


		(ii)	Statutory Prospectus for each of the Portfolios
[Rule 498A(j)(1)(iii)];



 


		(iii)	Statement of Additional Information (“SAI”)
for each of the Portfolios [Rule 498A(j)(1)(iii)];



 


		(iv)	Most Recent Annual and Semi-Annual Reports to Shareholders
(under Rule 30e-1 under the 1940 Act) for the Portfolios (together, the “Share-holder Reports”) (referred to
in Rule 30e-3 as the “Current” and “Prior” Report to Shareholders) [Rule 30e-3(b)(1)(i) and (ii)].



 


		(v)	Complete Portfolio Holdings from the Shareholder Reports Containing a Summary Schedule of Investments
(the “Complete Portfolio Holdings”) [Rule 30e-3(b)(1)(iii)]; and



 




    2


     


    

		(vi)	Portfolio Holdings for Most Recent First and Third
Fiscal Quarters (and together with the Complete Portfolio Holdings, the “Portfolio Holdings”) [Rule 30e-3(b)(1)(iv)].



 


(b).         Timing
for Providing, and Currentness of, the Fund Documents.


 


	 	(i)	The Fund agrees to provide or make available the Summary Prospectus, Statutory Prospectus, and SAI for the Portfolios and amendments thereto (“Offering Documents”) to the Company (or its designee), to the extent specified in Rule 498A and within a time frame reasonably designed to assist the Company in complying with the Company’s Website posting obligations under Rule 498A, as the Company may reasonably request sufficiently in advance, in order to facilitate the Company’s continuous offering of the Contracts and the Fund’s securities. The Parties agree that the Fund’s Offering Documents will not be provided any earlier than the date on which Offering Documents are filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on EDGAR.

                                                                           

	
        (ii)

         
	
        The Fund agrees to provide or make
        available the Shareholder Reports and Portfolio Holdings to the Company (or its designee), to the extent specified in
        Rule 30e-3 and within a time frame reasonably designed to assist the Company in complying with the Company’s Website
        posting obligations under Rule 30e-3 provided that, to the extent requested by the Fund, the Company executes a
        non-disclosure agreement in the form that the Fund provides to the Company prior to the provision of any portfolio holdings
        information. The Company covenants that it will not make public any portfolio holdings information prior to the date on which
        the Fund files such information with the SEC on EDGAR, and will keep portfolio holdings information confidential until such
        time. If the Fund does not provide the Company with its Complete Portfolio Holdings pursuant to Rule 30e-3(b)(1)(iii)
        because they are currently included in the Shareholder Report, and later seeks to discontinue including the Complete
        Portfolio Holdings in the Shareholder Report, the Fund will make a reasonable effort to give the Company thirty (30)
        day’s advance written notice prior to implementing the change.

shall provide the Fund Documents to Company (or its designee) in an electronic format that is suitable for website posting, and
in a format, or formats, that:


 


		(i)	are both human-readable and capable of being printed on paper in human-readable format (in accordance
with paragraph (b)(3) of Rule 30e-3 and paragraph (h)(2)(i) of Rule 498A);



 


		(ii)	will enable the Company to permit persons accessing the
Statutory Prospectus and SAI for the Portfolios to move directly back and forth between each section heading in a table of contents
of such document and the section of the document referenced in that section heading (that is, these documents must include linking,
in accordance with paragraph (h)(2)(ii) of Rule 498A); and



 




    3


     


    

		(iii)	will enable the Company to permit persons accessing the
Fund Documents to permanently retain, free of charge, an electronic version of such Fund Documents that meet the requirements
of subparagraphs (h)(2)(i) and (ii) of Rule 498A (in accordance with paragraph (h)(3) of Rule 498A).



 


(d).        Website
Hosting. The Company or its designee shall host and maintain the website specified in paragraph (j)(1)(iii) of Rule 498A, so
that the Fund Documents are publicly accessible and free of charge at that website, in accordance with the conditions set forth
in that paragraph, provided that the Fund and DFAS fulfill their obligations under this Amendment.


 


		2.	Content of Fund Documents. The Fund shall be responsible for the content and substance of

		(a)	The Fund shall provide the Company with a quantity of paper copies of the then current Fund Documents
as it deem reasonably sufficient. The Company, at its expense, may request additional copies of Fund Documents from time to time
in order that the Company may maintain a supply of such current paper documents sufficient in its reasonable judgment to meet anticipated
requests from Contract holders in order to comply with the requirements of paragraphs (e) and (f) of Rule 30e-3 and paragraphs
(i)(1) and (j)(3) of Rule 498A. Such Company requests shall be fulfilled reasonably promptly, after the request from the Company
or its agent is received by either the Fund or DFAS.



 


		(b)	Alternatively, if requested by the Company in lieu thereof, the Fund or its designee shall provide
such electronic or other documentation (including “camera ready” copies of the current Fund Documents as set in type,
or at the request of the Company, a .pdf format or other mutually agreeable form suitable to be sent to a financial printer), and
such other assistance as is reasonably necessary to have the then current Fund Documents printed for distribution; the reasonable

it can be terminated by the Portfolio (or Fund); and


 


(c).          the “Average Annual Total Returns”
for each Portfolio (before taxes) as calculated pursuant to Item 4(b)(2)(iii) of Form N-1A and made publicly available by the Fund.


 


		5.	Construction of this Amendment and the Agreement.



 


(a).        This
Amendment shall be interpreted in a manner that is consistent with Rule 30e-3 under the 1940 Act and Rule 498A (including paragraph

(b).        To

		6.	Termination. This Amendment shall terminate upon
