any loss suffered by the Fund resulting from such failure to receive
timely payment.
Notice shall be furnished promptly to HL by the Fund of any dividend or
distribution payable on Fund shares.
2. (a)The Fund represents that its shares are registered under the Securities
Act of 1933, as amended, and that all appropriate federal and state
registration provisions have been complied with as to such shares and that
such shares may properly be made available for the purposes of this
Agreement. The Fund shall bear the cost of any such registration, as well
as the expense of any taxes assessed upon the issuance or transfer of Fund
shares pursuant to this Agreement.
(b) The Fund shall supply to HL, in a timely manner and in a sufficient
number to allow distribution by HL to each owner of or participant under a
Contract (i) annual and semiannual reports of the Fund's condition, and
(ii) any other shareholder notice, report or document required by law to
be delivered to
shareholders. The Fund shall bear the cost of preparing and supplying the
foregoing materials and HL shall bear the cost of any distribution
thereof.
3. HL shall not make any representation concerning Fund shares except those
contained in the then current prospectus of the Fund and in printed
information subsequently issued by the Fund as information supplemental to
the prospectus.
4. This Agreement shall terminate as to new Contracts:
(a) At the option of HL or the Fund upon six months' advance notice to the
other;
(b) At the option of HL if Fund shares are not available for any reason to
meet the requirements of the Contracts but then only as to those new
Contracts, the terms of which require the periodic payments to be invested
in whole or in part in that particular Series;
(c) At the option of HL, upon institution of formal proceedings against
the Fund by the Securities and Exchange Commission or any other regulatory
body;
(d) Upon assignment of this Agreement, unless made with the written
consent of the other party to this Agreement;
(e) If Fund shares are not registered, issued or sold in conformance with
applicable federal or state law or if such laws preclude the use of Fund
shares as the underlying investment media of the Contracts. Prompt notice
shall be given to HL in the event the conditions of this provision occur.
Notice of termination hereunder shall be given promptly by the party
desiring to terminate to the other party to this Agreement.
5. Termination as the result of any cause listed in the preceding paragraph
shall not affect the Fund's obligation to furnish Fund shares in
connection with Contracts then in force for which the shares of the Fund
serve or may serve as the underlying investment media, unless further sale
of Fund shares is proscribed by the Securities and Exchange Commission or
other regulatory body, or if Fund shares of the requisite Series are no
longer available.

hereto relating to the same subject matter.
