(the “Fund”), an open-end management investment company organized under the laws of Maryland ; PRUDENTIAL INVESTMENT MANAGEMENT SERVICES LLC (the “Underwriter”), a Delaware limited liability company and PRUDENTIAL INVESTMENTS LLC (the “Adviser”), a New York limited liability company.

WHEREAS, the Fund engages in business as an open-end management investment company and is available for direct investment by the general public and may also act as the investment vehicle for separate accounts established for variable life insurance policies and/or variable annuity contracts (collectively, the “Variable Insurance Products”) to be offered by insurance companies (“Participating Insurance Companies”); and

WHEREAS, the beneficial interest in the Fund is divided into several series of shares, each designated a Series and representing the interest in a particular managed portfolio of securities and other assets; and

WHEREAS, the Fund is registered as an open-end management investment company under the 1940 Act and shares of the Portfolio(s) are registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “1933 Act”); and

WHEREAS, the Underwriter is registered as a broker-dealer with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “1934 Act”), and is a member in good standing of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (“FINRA”), and is party to this Agreement in its capacity as Principal Underwriter of the Fund; and

WHEREAS, the Adviser is duly registered as an investment adviser under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”) and

WHEREAS, the Company has issued and plans to continue to issue certain variable annuity contracts supported wholly or partially by the Accounts (the “Contracts”); and such Contracts are listed in Schedule A attached hereto and incorporated herein by reference, as such schedule may be amended from time to time by mutual written agreement of the parties; and

WHEREAS, each Account is a duly organized, validly existing segregated asset account, established by resolution of the Board of Directors of the Company under the insurance laws of the State of Connecticut, to set aside and invest assets attributable to the Contracts; and

WHEREAS, to the extent permitted by applicable insurance laws and regulations, the Company intends to continue to purchase shares in the Series listed on Schedule B attached hereto and incorporated herein by reference, as such schedule may be amended from time to time by mutual written agreement of the parties (the “Portfolios”), on behalf of the Accounts to fund the Contracts, and the Fund is authorized to sell such shares to unit investment trusts such as the Accounts at net asset value; and

WHEREAS, to the extent permitted by applicable insurance laws and regulations, the Company also intends to continue to purchase shares in other open-end investment companies or series thereof not affiliated with the Fund (the “Unaffiliated Funds”) on behalf of the Accounts to fund the Contracts.

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

ARTICLE I. Sale of Fund Shares

1.1. The Underwriter agrees to sell to the Company those shares of the Portfolios which the Account orders, executing such orders on each Business Day at the net asset value next computed after receipt by the Fund or its designee of the order for the shares of the Portfolios. For purposes of this Section 1.1. the Company shall be the designee of the Fund for receipt of such orders and receipt by such designee shall constitute receipt by the Fund, provided that the Fund receives notice of any such order by 10:00 a.m. Eastern time on the next following Business Day. “Business Day” shall mean any day on which the New York Stock Exchange is open for trading and on which the Portfolio calculates its net asset value pursuant to the rules of the SEC as described in the then-current Registration Statement of the Fund on Form N-1A. “Valuation Time” shall mean the time as of which the Fund calculates net asset value for the shares of the Portfolios on the relevant Business Day.

1.2. The Fund agrees to make shares of the Portfolios available for purchase at the applicable net asset value per share by the Company and the Accounts on those days on which the Fund calculates its Portfolios' net asset value pursuant to rules of the SEC, and the Fund shall calculate such net asset value on each day which the New York Stock Exchange is open for trading. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Fund and/or Underwriter may refuse to sell shares of any Portfolio to any person, or suspend or terminate the offering of shares of any Portfolio if such action is required by law or by regulatory authorities having jurisdiction or is, in the sole

discretion of the Fund acting in good faith, necessary or appropriate in the best interests of the shareholders of such Portfolio. All orders accepted by the Company shall be subject to the terms of the then current prospectus of the Fund. The Company shall use its best efforts, and shall reasonably cooperate with, the Fund to enforce stated prospectus policies regarding transactions in Portfolio shares. The Company acknowledges that orders for Portfolio shares accepted by it in violation of the stated policies of the Fund as set forth in the Fund’s prospectus may be subsequently revoked or cancelled by the Fund and that the Fund shall not be responsible for any losses incurred by the Company or the Contract owner as a result of such cancellation. In addition, the Company acknowledges that the Fund has the right to refuse any purchase order if the Fund determines, in its sole discretion, that: (i) a Portfolio would be unable to invest the money effectively in accordance with its investment policies, (ii) a Portfolio would otherwise be adversely affected due to the size of the transaction, frequency of trading, or other factors, (iii) the completion of such purchase order would conflict with any of the Fund’s then-current policies and procedures or any disclosure set forth in the Fund’s registration statement; or (iv) the completion of the purchase order would violate any law, rule, regulation or court order.

1.3. The Fund and the Underwriter will not sell shares of the Portfolios to any other Participating Insurance Company separate account unless an agreement containing provisions the substance of which are the same as Sections 2.1. 2.2 (except with respect to designation of applicable law), 3.5, 3.6, and 3.7 of this Agreement is in effect to govern such sales.

1.4. The Fund agrees to redeem for cash, on the Company’s request, any full or fractional shares of the Fund held by the Company, executing such requests on each Business Day at the net asset value next computed after receipt by the Fund or its designee of the request for redemption. For purposes of this Section 1.4, the Company shall be the designee of the Fund for receipt of requests for redemption and receipt by such designee shall constitute receipt by the Fund, provided that the Fund receives notice of any such request for redemption by 10:00 a.m. Eastern time on the next following Business Day.

1.5. The parties hereto acknowledge that the arrangement contemplated by this Agreement is not exclusive; the Fund’s shares may be sold to the general public as well as to other Participating Insurance Companies (subject to Section 1.3) and the cash value of the Contracts may be invested in other investment companies.

1.6. The Company shall pay for Fund shares by 3:00 p.m. Eastern time on the next Business Day after an order to purchase Fund shares is received in accordance with the provisions of Section 1.1 hereof. Payment shall be in federal funds transmitted by wire and/or by a credit for any shares redeemed the same day as the purchase.

1.7. The Fund shall pay and transmit the proceeds of redemptions of Fund shares by 3:00 p.m. Eastern Time on the next Business Day after a redemption order is received in accordance with Section 1.4 hereof; provided, however, that the Fund may delay payment in extraordinary circumstances to the extent permitted under Section 22(e) of the 1940 Act. Payment shall be in federal funds transmitted by wire and/or a credit for any shares purchased the same day as the redemption.

1.8. Issuance and transfer of the Fund’s shares will be by book entry only. Stock certificates will not be issued to the Company or the Accounts. Shares purchased from the Fund will be recorded in an appropriate title for the relevant Account or the relevant sub-account of an Account.

1.9. The Fund shall furnish same day notice (by electronic communication or telephone, followed by electronic confirmation) to the Company of any income, dividends or capital gain distributions payable on a Portfolio’s shares. The Company hereby elects to receive all such income dividends and capital gain distributions as are payable on a Portfolio’s shares in additional shares of that Portfolio. The Company reserves the right to revoke this election and to receive all such income dividends and capital gain distributions in cash. The Fund shall either notify the Company by the end of the next following Business Day of the number of shares so issued as payment of such dividends and distributions or provide the Company with an internet-based or other method to obtain such information.

1.10. The Fund shall make the net asset value per share for each Portfolio available to the Company on each Business Day as soon as reasonably practicable after the net asset value per share is calculated and shall use its best efforts to make the net asset value per share for each Portfolio available by 7:00 p.m. Eastern time. 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 Adviser or the Fund shall notify the Company as soon as reasonably possible after discovery of the error. Such notification may be verbal, but shall be confirmed promptly in writing. A pricing error shall be corrected as follows: (a) if the pricing error results in a difference between the erroneous NAV and the correct NAV of less than $0.01 per share, then no corrective action need be taken; (b) if the pricing error results in a difference between the erroneous NAV and the correct NAV equal to or greater than $0.01 per share, but less than 1/2 of 1% of the Portfolio’s NAV at the time of the error, then the Adviser shall reimburse the Portfolio for any loss, after taking into consideration any positive effect of such error; however, no adjustments to Contract owner accounts need be made; and (c) if the pricing error results in a difference between the erroneous NAV and the correct NAV equal to or greater than 1/2 of 1% of the Portfolio’s NAV at the time of the error, then the Adviser shall reimburse the Portfolio for any loss (without taking into consideration any positive effect of such error) and shall reimburse the Company for reasonable and customary costs of making adjustments to correct Contract owner accounts. If an adjustment is necessary to correct a material error which has caused Contract owners to receive less than the amount to which they are entitled, the number of shares of the applicable sub-account of such Contract owners will be adjusted and the amount of any underpayments shall be credited by the Adviser to the Company for crediting of such amounts to the applicable sub-accounts of such Contract owners. Upon notification by the Adviser of any overpayment due to a material error, the Company shall promptly remit to the Adviser any overpayment that has not been paid to Contract owners. In no event shall the Company be liable to Contract owners for any such adjustments or underpayment amounts. A pricing error within categories (b) or (c) above shall be deemed to be “materially incorrect” or constitute a “material

error” for purposes of this Agreement. The standards set forth in this Section 1.10 are based on the parties’ understanding of the views expressed by the staff of the SEC as of the date of this Agreement. In the event the views of the SEC staff are later modified or superseded by SEC or judicial interpretation, the parties shall amend the foregoing provisions of this Agreement to comport with the appropriate applicable standards, on terms mutually satisfactory to all parties.
