BROKER/ DEALER DIRECTION
FOR ANNUITY CONTRACT DELIVERY

Unless otherwise noted, PL & A will mail all annuity contracts to the Registered Representatives’ business address. Indicate below if your firm wants to establish a different routing option for the delivery of contracts for your clients.

			.			___		Contract owner
			2
			.			___		Broker/Dealer’s Home Office
			3
			.			___		Broker/Dealer’s alternate address (as noted below)

          If number 1 is selected, annuity contract will be delivered to the Contract Owner, except in certain circumstances where State requirements mandate the delivery to the Registered Representative. For all circumstances where contracts are delivered other than directly to the contract owner (for example, if number 2 or 3 above is selected or if the contracts are mailed to the Registered Representatives as a result of the standard default or State requirements), Broker/Dealer represents warrants and covenants:

	(a)		That it shall ensure that the annuity contracts will be delivered to the Contract owner within fifteen (15) business days from their receipt from PL & A;

	(c)		That upon request by PL & A, Broker/Dealer will furnish such appropriate records as are necessary to document date of delivery of annuity contracts to Contract owners.
