A-1

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of their mutual promises, the Company and the Trust agree as follows:

ARTICLE I. Sale of Fund Shares

1.1. Subject to Article IX hereof, the Trust, on behalf of the Fund, agrees to make available to the Company for purchase on behalf of the Account, shares of the Portfolios, such purchases to be effected at net asset value in accordance with Section 1.3 of this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) the Portfolios in existence now or that may be established in the future will be made available to the Company only as the Fund may so provide, and (ii) the Board of Trustees of the Fund (the “Board”) may suspend or terminate the offering of shares of any Portfolio or class thereof, if such action is required by law or by regulatory authorities having jurisdiction or if, in the sole discretion of the Board acting in good faith and in light of its fiduciary duties under federal and any applicable state laws, suspension or termination is necessary and in the best interests of the shareholders of such Portfolio.

1.2. The Trust represents and warrants that the Fund shall redeem, at the Company’s request, any full or fractional Portfolio shares held by the Company on behalf of the Account, such redemptions to be effected at net asset value in accordance with Section 1.3 of this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Fund may delay redemption of Fund shares of any Portfolio to the extent permitted by the 1940 Act, and any rules, regulations or orders thereunder.

1.3. Purchase and Redemption Procedures

(a) The Trust, on behalf of the Fund, hereby appoints the Company as an agent of the Fund for the limited purpose of receiving and accepting purchase and redemption requests on behalf of the Account (but not with respect to any Fund shares that may be held in the general account of the Company) for shares of those Portfolios made available hereunder, based on allocations of amounts to the Account or subaccounts thereof under the Contracts and other transactions relating to the Contracts or the Account. Receipt and acceptance of any such request (or relevant transactional information therefor) on any day the New York Stock Exchange is open for trading and on which a Portfolio calculates its net asset value (a “Business Day”) pursuant to the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), by the Company as such limited agent of the Fund prior to the time that the Portfolio calculates its net asset value as described from time to time in the Fund’s prospectus shall constitute receipt and acceptance by the Portfolio on that same Business Day, provided that the Fund or its agent receives notice of such request by 9:30 a.m. Eastern Time on the next following Business Day.

(b) The Company shall pay for shares of each Portfolio on the same Business Day that it notifies the Trust of a purchase request for such shares. Payment for Portfolio shares shall be made in federal funds transmitted to the Fund or other designated person by wire to be received by 3:00 p.m. Eastern Time on the Business Day the Fund is notified of the purchase request for Portfolio shares (unless the Fund determines and so advises the Company that sufficient proceeds are available from redemption of shares of other Portfolios effected pursuant to redemption requests tendered by the Company on behalf of the Account, or unless the Fund otherwise determines and so advises the Company to delay the date of payment, to the extent the Fund may do so under the 1940 Act). If federal funds are not received on time, such funds will be invested, and Portfolio shares purchased thereby will be issued, as soon as practicable and the Company shall promptly, upon the Trust’s request, reimburse the Fund for any charges, costs, fees, interest or other expenses incurred by the Fund in connection with any advances to, or borrowing or overdrafts by, the Fund, or any similar expenses incurred by the Fund, as a result of portfolio transactions effected by the Fund based upon such purchase request. Upon receipt of federal funds so wired, such funds shall cease to be the responsibility of the Company and shall become the responsibility of the Fund.

(c) Payment for Portfolio shares redeemed by the Account or the Company shall be made by the Fund in federal funds transmitted by wire to the Company or any other designated person by 3 p.m. Eastern Time on the same Business Day the Fund is properly notified of the redemption order of such shares (unless redemption proceeds are to be applied to the purchase of shares of other Portfolios in accordance with Section 1.3(b) of this Agreement), except that the Fund reserves the right to delay payment of redemption proceeds to the extent permitted under Section 22(e) of the 1940 Act and any rules thereunder, and in accordance with the procedures and policies of the Fund as described in the then-current prospectus.

(d) Any purchase or redemption request for Portfolio shares held or to be held in the Company’s general account shall be effected at the net asset value per share next determined after the Fund’s receipt and acceptance of such request, provided that, in the case of a purchase request, payment for Fund shares so requested is received by the Fund in federal funds prior to close of business for determination of such value, as defined from time to time in the Fund’s prospectus.

1.4. The Trust, or its designee, shall use its best efforts to make the net asset value per share for each Portfolio available to the Company by 6:00 p.m. Eastern Time each Business Day, and in any event, as soon as reasonably practicable after the net asset value per share for such Portfolio is calculated, and shall calculate such net asset value in accordance with the Fund’s prospectus. In the event of an error in the computation of a Portfolio’s net asset value per share (“NAV”) or any dividend or capital gain distribution (each, a “pricing error”), the Trust shall notify the Company as soon as possible after the discovery of the error. Such notification may be verbal, but shall be confirmed promptly in writing in accordance with Article X of this Agreement. A pricing error shall be corrected in accordance with the Fund’s internal policies and procedures. If an adjustment is necessary to correct a material error that occurred through no fault of the Company and such adjustment has caused Contract owners to receive less than the number of Shares or redemption proceeds to which they are entitled, the number of Shares of the applicable Account will be adjusted and the amount of any underpayments will be paid by the Trust (if not already paid by the Fund) to the Company for crediting of such amounts to the Contract owners’ accounts. Upon notification by the Trust of any overpayment due to a material error, the Company shall promptly remit to the Fund or Trust, as appropriate, any overpayment that has not been paid to Contract owner; however, the Trust acknowledges that the Company does not intend to seek additional payments from any Contract owner who, because of a pricing error, may have underpaid for units of interest credited to his/her account. The costs of correcting such adjustments shall be borne by the Trust unless the Company is at fault in which case such costs shall be borne by the Company.

1.5. The Trust, or its designee, shall use its best efforts to furnish notice (by wire or telephone followed by written confirmation) to the Company of any income dividends or capital gain distributions payable on any Portfolio shares by the record date, but in no event later than 7:00 p.m. Eastern Time on the ex-dividend date. The Company, on its behalf and on behalf of the Account, hereby elects to receive all such dividends and distributions as are payable on any Portfolio shares in the form of additional shares of that Portfolio. The Company reserves the right, on its behalf and on behalf of the Account, to revoke this election and to receive all such dividends and capital gain distributions in cash. The Trust shall notify the Company promptly of the number of Portfolio shares so issued as payment of such dividends and distributions.

1.6. Issuance and transfer of Fund shares shall be by book entry only. Share certificates will not be issued to the Company or the Account. Purchase and redemption orders for Fund shares shall be recorded in an appropriate ledger for the Account or the appropriate subaccount of the Account.

1.7. (a) The parties hereto acknowledge that the arrangement contemplated by this Agreement is not exclusive; the Fund’s shares may be sold to other insurance companies and the cash value of the Contracts may be invested in other investment companies.

(b) The Company shall not, without prior notice to the Trust (unless otherwise required by applicable law), take any action to operate the Account as a management investment company under the 1940 Act.

(c) The Company shall not, without prior notice to the Trust (unless otherwise required by applicable law), induce Contract owners to change or modify the Fund or change the Fund’s investment Trust.

(d) The Company shall not, without prior notice to the Fund, induce Contract owners to vote on any matter submitted for consideration by the shareholders of the Fund in a manner other than as recommended by the Board.

1.8 The parties may agree, in lieu of the procedures set forth above in this Article 1, to place and settle trades for Fund shares through a clearing corporation. In the event that such a clearing corporation is used, the parties agree to abide by the rules of the clearing corporation.

ARTICLE II. Representations and Warranties

1.8. The Company represents and warrants that the Contracts (a) are, or prior to issuance will be, registered under the 1933 Act, or (b) are not registered because they are properly exempt from registration under the 1933 Act or will be offered exclusively in transactions that are properly exempt from registration under the 1933 Act. The Company further represents and warrants that the Contracts will be issued and sold in compliance in all material respects with all applicable federal securities and state securities and insurance laws. The Company further represents and warrants that it is an insurance company duly organized and in good standing under applicable law, that it has legally and validly established the Account as a segregated asset account under Kansas insurance laws, and that it (a) has registered or, prior to any issuance or sale of the Contracts, will register the Account as a unit investment trust in accordance with the provisions of the 1940 Act to serve as a segregated investment account for the Contracts and will maintain such registration for as long as any Contracts are outstanding, as required by the rules and regulations of the SEC, or alternatively (b) has not registered the Account in proper reliance upon an exclusion from registration under the ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇.

1.9. The Trust represents and warrants that Portfolio shares sold pursuant to this Agreement shall be registered under the 1933 Act, shall be duly authorized for issuance and sold in compliance with applicable state and federal securities laws and that the Fund is and shall remain registered under the 1940 Act. The Trust represents and warrants that the Fund shall amend the registration statement for its shares under the 1933 Act and the 1940 Act from time to time as required in order to effect the continuous offering of its shares. The Trust represents and warrants that the Fund shall register and qualify the shares for sale in accordance with the laws of the various states only if and to the extent deemed advisable by the Fund.

1.10. The Trust represents and warrants that the Fund is lawfully organized and validly existing under the laws of the State of Delaware and that it does and will comply in all material respects with the 1940 Act, including, without limitation, Rule 38a-1 under the ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇.

1.11.

1.12. The Trust represents and warrants that all of the trustees/directors, officers and employees of the Trust and Fund, and other individuals or entities dealing with the money and/or securities of the Fund are and shall continue to be at all times covered by a blanket fidelity bond or similar coverage for the benefit of the Fund in an amount not less than the minimum coverage as required currently by Rule 17g-1 of the 1940 Act or related provisions as may be promulgated from time to time. The aforesaid bond shall include coverage for larceny and embezzlement and shall be issued by a reputable bonding company.

1.13. The Company represents and warrants that all of its directors, officers, employees, and other individuals/entities employed or controlled by the Company dealing with the money and/or securities of the Account are covered by a blanket fidelity bond or similar coverage for the benefit of the Account, in an amount not less than $5 million. The aforesaid bond includes coverage for larceny and embezzlement and is issued by a reputable bonding company.

1.14. The Company represents and warrants, for purposes other than diversification under Section 817 of the Code, that the Contracts are currently at the time of issuance and, assuming the Fund meets the requirements of Article VI, will be treated as annuity contracts under applicable provisions of the Code, and that it will make every effort to maintain such treatment and that it will notify the Fund and Trust immediately upon having a reasonable basis for believing that the Contracts have ceased to be so treated or that they might not be so treated in the future. In addition, the Company represents and warrants that each Account is a “segregated asset account” and that interests in the Account are offered exclusively through the purchase of or transfer into a “variable contract” within the meaning of such terms under Section 817 of the Code and the regulations thereunder. The Company will use every effort to continue to meet such definitional requirements, and it will notify the Fund and Trust immediately upon having a reasonable basis for believing that such requirements have ceased to be met or that they might not be met in the future. The Company represents and warrants that it will not purchase Fund shares with assets derived from tax-qualified retirement plans except, indirectly, through Contracts purchased in connection with such plans.

ARTICLE III. Prospectuses and Proxy Statements; Voting

1.15. The Trust, or its designee, shall provide the Company with as many printed copies of the current prospectus, current Statement of Additional Information (“SAI”), supplements, proxy statements, and annual or semi-annual reports of each Portfolio (for distribution to Contract owners with value allocated to such Portfolios) as the Company may reasonably request, with expenses to be borne in accordance with Schedule B hereof. If requested by the Company in lieu thereof, the Trust, or its designee, shall provide such documents (including a print-ready PDF, or an electronic copy of the documents in a format suitable for printing and posting on the Company’s website, all as the Company may reasonably request) and such other assistance as is reasonably necessary in order for the Company to have prospectuses, SAIs, supplements and annual or semi-annual reports for the Contracts and the Fund printed together in a single document or posted on the Company’s web-site or printed individually by the Company if it so chooses.

1.16. The Fund’s prospectus shall state that the current SAI for the Fund is available.

1.17. The Trust shall provide the Company with information regarding the Fund’s expenses, which information may include a table of fees and related narrative disclosure for use in any prospectus or other descriptive document relating to a Contract. The Company agrees that it will use such information substantially in the form provided. The Company shall provide prior written notice of any proposed modification of such information, which notice will describe the manner in which the Company proposes to modify the information, and agrees that it may not modify such information in any way without the prior consent of the Fund, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld.

1.18. So long as, and to the extent the SEC continues to interpret the 1940 Act to require pass-through voting privileges for variable contract owners, or to the extent otherwise required by law, the Company shall, at the Company’s option, follow one of the two methods described below to provide pass-through voting privileges to contract owners:

(a) Provide a list of Contract owners with value allocated to a Portfolio as of the record date to the Fund or its agent in order to permit the Fund to send solicitation material and gather voting instructions from Contract owners on behalf of the Company. The Company shall also provide such other information to the Fund as is reasonably necessary in order for the Fund to properly tabulate votes for Fund initiated proxies. In the event that the Company chooses this option, the Fund shall be responsible for properly “echo voting” shares of a Portfolio for which no voting instructions have been received.

(b) Solicit voting instructions from Contract holders itself and vote shares of the Portfolio in accordance with instructions received from Contract holders. The Company shall vote the shares of the Portfolios for which no instructions have been received in the same proportion as shares of the Portfolio for which instructions have been received.

3.5. The Company reserves the right to vote Fund shares held in its general account in its own right, to the extent permitted by applicable laws.

3.6 If the Trust and the Company agree to distribute Fund summary prospectuses to Contract owners pursuant to Rule 498 of the 1933 Act, as set forth in Schedule C of this Agreement, then each party to the Agreement represents and warrants that it complies with the requirements of Rule 498 and applicable SEC guidance regarding the Rule in connection therewith, and that it maintains policies and procedures reasonably designed to ensure that it can meet its obligations in connection with Fund summary prospectuses. The parties agree to comply with the terms included in the attached Schedule C as of the effective date of this Agreement.

Materials not approved or disapproved within five (5) Business Days shall be deemed approved. The Trust or its designee reserves the right to reasonably object to the continued use of any such sales literature or other promotional material in which the Fund (or a Portfolio thereof) or the Trust is named, and no such material shall be used if the Trust Fund or its designee so objects.

1.23. Upon request, the Trust will provide to the Company at least one complete copy of all registration statements, prospectuses, SAIs, reports, proxy statements, sales literature and other promotional materials, applications for exemptions, requests for no-action letters, and all amendments to any of the above, that relate to the Portfolios or their shares, promptly after the filing of such document(s) with the SEC or other regulatory authorities.

6.2(b). Adviser shall not be liable under this indemnification provision with respect to any claim made against an Indemnified Party unless such Indemnified Party shall have notified Adviser in writing within a reasonable time after the summons or other first legal process giving information of the nature of the claim shall have been served upon such Indemnified Party (or after such Indemnified Party shall have received notice of such service on any designated agent), but failure to notify Adviser of any such claim shall not relieve Adviser from any liability which it may have to the Indemnified Party against whom such action is brought otherwise than on account of this indemnification provision. In case any such action is brought against an Indemnified Party, Adviser shall be entitled to participate, at its own expense, in the defense of such action. Adviser also shall be entitled to assume the defense thereof, with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the party named in the action. After notice from Adviser to such party of Adviser’s election to assume the defense thereof, the Indemnified Party shall bear the fees and expenses of any additional counsel retained by it, and Adviser will not be liable to such party under this Agreement for any legal or other expenses subsequently incurred by such party independently in connection with the defense thereof other than reasonable costs of investigation.

6.2(c). The Indemnified Parties will promptly notify Adviser of the commencement of any litigation or proceedings against them in connection with the operation of the Fund.

The Trust agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Company and each of its directors and officers and each person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of Section 15 of the 1933 Act (collectively, the “Indemnified Parties” for purposes of this Section 7.2) against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities (including amounts paid in settlement with the written consent of the Trust) or litigation (including legal and other expenses) to which the Indemnified Parties may become subject under any statute or regulation, at common law or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses (or actions in respect thereof) or settlements:

or arise out of or are based upon the omission or the alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, provided that this agreement to indemnify shall not apply as to any Indemnified Party if such statement or omission or such alleged statement or omission was made in reliance upon and in conformity with information furnished to the Trust or Fund by or on behalf of the Company for use in the registration statement, prospectus or SAI for the Fund or in sales literature (or any amendment or supplement) or otherwise for use in connection with the sale of the Contracts or Fund shares; or

(ii) arise out of or as a result of statements or representations by or on behalf of the Fund or the Trust (other than statements or representations contained in the registration statement, prospectus, SAI or sales literature for the Contracts not supplied by the Fund or the Trust) or wrongful conduct of the Trust or the Fund with respect to the sale or distribution of the Contracts or Fund shares; or

(iii) arise out of any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in a registration statement, prospectus, SAI or sales literature covering the Contracts, or any amendment thereof or supplement thereto, or the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statement or statements therein not misleading, if such statement or omission was made in reliance upon information furnished to the Company by or on behalf of the Trust or the Fund; or

(iv) arise as a result of any failure by the Fund or the Trust to provide the services and furnish the materials under the terms of this Agreement (including a failure of a Portfolio, whether unintentional or in good faith or otherwise, to comply with the diversification and other qualification requirements specified in Section 6.1 of this Agreement); or

(v) arise out of or result from any material breach of any representation and/or warranty made by or on behalf of the Trust or the Fund in this Agreement or arise out of or result from any other material breach of this Agreement by or on behalf of the Trust or the Fund;

as limited by and in accordance with the provisions of Sections 7.2(b) and 7.2(c) hereof.

7.2(b). The Trust shall not be liable under this indemnification provision with respect to any losses, claims, damages, liabilities or litigation to which an Indemnified Party would otherwise be subject by reason of such Indemnified Party’s willful misfeasance, bad faith, or gross negligence in the performance or such Indemnified Party’s duties or by reason of such Indemnified Party’s reckless disregard of obligations and duties under this Agreement or to the Company or the Account, whichever is applicable.

In case any such action is brought against the Indemnified Party, the Trust will be entitled to

participate, at its own expense, in the defense thereof. The Trust also shall be entitled to assume the defense thereof, with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the party named in the action.
