WHEREAS, the Fund shares may be made available to separate accounts of one or more insurance companies that fund variable annuity contracts or variable life insurance policies, subject to receipt of any required relief pursuant to an exemptive order from the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), granting exemptions from the provisions of various sections of the 1940 Act and Rules thereunder, to the extent necessary to permit shares of the Funds to be sold to and held by variable annuity and variable life insurance separate accounts of life insurance companies that may or may not be affiliated with one another (hereinafter the “Mixed and Shared Funding Exemptive Order”);

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


ARTICLE I. FUND SHARES

1.5 The Trust and the Distributor agree to make shares of the Funds available for purchase on each Business Day (as defined below) by the Separate Accounts.  Each Fund will execute orders placed for each Separate Account on a daily basis at the net asset value next computed after receipt and acceptance by the Trust or its designee of such order.

A.           For purposes of this Agreement, Hartford shall be the designee of the Trust for receipt of orders from each Separate Account and receipt by Hartford constitutes receipt by the Trust, provided that the Distributor receives notice of orders by 8:30 a.m. (Eastern time) on the next following Business Day.

B.           For purposes of this Agreement, “Business Day” shall mean each day on which the New York Stock Exchange is open for trading and on which each Fund calculates its net asset value pursuant to the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) as set forth in the Trust’s registration statement on Form N-1A (the “Registration Statement”).

1.5 The Trust agrees to make available on each Business Day shares of the Funds for purchase at the applicable net asset value per share by the Separate Accounts; provided, however, that the Board of Trustees of the Trust (the “Board”), acting in good faith and in the exercise of its fiduciary responsibilities, may refuse to permit the Trust to sell shares of any Fund to any person, or suspend or terminate the offering of shares of any Fund if such action is required by law or by regulatory authorities having jurisdiction over the sale of shares or if the Board determines that such action is necessary in the best interests of the shareholders of any Fund.

1.5 The Trust and Distributor agree that shares of the Funds will be sold only to insurance companies, for use in conjunction with variable life insurance policies or variable annuities to separate accounts of insurance companies, and to other persons consistent with the diversification rules under Section 817(h) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), and the regulations thereunder.  No shares of the Funds will be sold to the general public unless otherwise permitted by the Mixed and Shared Funding Exemptive Order and any applicable provisions of the Code.

1.4           Upon receipt of a request for redemption in proper form from Hartford on any Business Day, the Trust agrees to redeem any full or fractional shares of the Funds held by the Separate Accounts at the net asset value next computed after receipt and acceptance by the Trust or its designee of the request for redemption, except that the Trust reserves the right to suspend redemptions temporarily to the extent permitted under the 1940 Act.  Such redemption shall be paid consistent with applicable rules of the SEC and procedures and policies of the Trust as described in the Trust’s current registration statement.

A.           For purposes of this Agreement, Hartford shall be the designee of the Trust for receipt of redemption requests from each Separate Account and receipt by Hartford constitutes receipt by the Trust, provided that the Distributor receives notice of the redemption request by 8:00 a.m. (Eastern time) on the next following Business Day. Hartford agrees to submit such orders electronically through secured trading systems as described on Schedule C to this Agreement or, if it is unable to submit orders electronically, Hartford shall submit such orders through manual transmissions using the procedures described in Schedule C to this Agreement.

1.5 Hartford agrees that purchases and redemptions of Fund shares shall be made in accordance with the provisions of the then current prospectuses of the Funds.

A.           Hartford will place separate orders to purchase or redeem shares of each Fund.  Each order shall describe the net amount of shares and dollar amount of each Fund to be purchased or redeemed.

B.           Unless otherwise specified in Schedule C, Hartford shall pay for shares of the Funds on the next Business Day after Hartford’s receipt of an order to purchase shares of a Fund, and payment shall be in federal funds transmitted by wire.

C.           In the event of net redemptions, a Fund shall pay the redemption proceeds in federal funds transmitted by wire on the next Business Day after Hartford’s receipt of an order to redeem shares.

1.6           Issuance and transfer of a Fund’s shares will be by book entry only.  Share certificates will not be issued to Hartford or any Separate Account.  Shares purchased will be recorded in an appropriate title for each Separate Account or the appropriate sub-account of each Separate Account.  The Trust shall furnish to Hartford the CUSIP number assigned to each Fund identified in Schedule B attached as may be amended from time to time.

1.7           The Trust or its designee shall notify Hartford in advance of any dividends or capital gain distributions payable on a Fund’s shares, but by no later than same day notice by 6:00 p.m. Eastern time (by wire or telephone, followed by written confirmation).  Hartford elects to receive all such dividends and capital gain distributions in additional shares of the paying Fund.  The Trust or its agent shall notify Hartford of the number of shares issued as payment of dividends and distributions.  Hartford reserves the right to revoke this election and to receive all such dividends and capital gain distributions in cash.

1.8           Unless otherwise specified in Schedule C, the Trust or its agent shall advise Hartford on each Business Day of the net asset value per share for each Fund as soon as reasonably practical after the net asset value per share is calculated and shall use its best efforts to make such net asset value per share available by 6:30 p.m. Eastern time.

A.           If the Trust or its agent provides materially incorrect share net asset value information through no fault of Hartford, the Separate Accounts shall be entitled to an adjustment with respect to the Fund shares purchased or redeemed to reflect the correct net asset value per share.

B.           The determination of the materiality of any net asset value pricing error and its correction shall be based on the SEC’s recommended guidelines regarding these errors.  Any material error in the calculation or reporting of net asset value per share, dividend or capital gain information shall be reported promptly to Hartford upon discovery.  The Trust and/or its agents shall indemnify and hold harmless Hartford against any amount Hartford is legally required to pay qualified plans (“Plans”) or Contract owners, and which amount is due to the Trust’s or its agents’ material miscalculation and/or incorrect reporting of the daily net asset value, dividend rate or capital gains distribution rate.  Hartford shall submit an invoice to the Trust or its agents for such losses incurred as a result of the above which shall be payable within sixty (60) days of receipt.  Should a material miscalculation by the Trust or its agents result in a gain to Hartford, Hartford shall immediately reimburse the Trust or its agents for any amount lost by the Trust or its agents as a result of the incorrect calculation.  Should a material miscalculation by the Trust or its agents result in a gain to the Plans or Contract owners, Hartford will consult with the Trust or its designee as to what reasonable efforts shall be made to recover the money and repay the Trust or its agents.  Hartford shall then make such reasonable effort, at the expense of the Trust or its agents, to recover the money and repay the Trust or its agents; but Hartford shall not be obligated to take legal action against the Plans or Contract owners.

With respect to the material errors or omissions relating to net asset value pricing, this section shall control over other indemnification provisions in this Agreement.

C.           Notwithstanding anything possibly to the contrary in this Agreement or any Rule 22c-2 Shareholder Information Agreement entered into by the parties, the Trust hereby waives enforcement rights of fund policies regarding market timing or frequent trading with respect to transfers of assets into or from Hartford sponsored dynamic or static asset allocation models.

ARTICLE II.  GENERAL DUTIES

2.1           Hartford shall take all such actions as are necessary under applicable federal and state law to permit the sale of the Contracts issued by Hartford, including registering each Separate Account as an investment company to the extent required under the 1940 Act, and registering the Contracts or interests in the Separate Accounts under the Contracts to the extent required under the 1933 Act, and obtaining all necessary approvals to offer the Contracts from state insurance commissioners.

2.2           Hartford shall make every effort to maintain the treatment of the Contracts issued by Hartford as annuity contracts or life insurance policies, whichever is appropriate, under the applicable provisions of the Code, and shall notify the Trust and the Distributor immediately upon having a reasonable basis for believing that such Contracts have ceased to be so treated or that they might not be so treated in the future.  In that regard, Hartford shall make every effort to remedy any Contract's failure to be treated as annuity contracts or life insurance policies, as appropriate, under applicable provisions of the Code, including Section 72 and regulations thereunder within the required time frames.

2.3           Hartford or its agents shall offer and sell the Contracts in accordance with applicable provisions of the 1933 Act, the 1934 Act, the 1940 Act, the NASD Rules of Fair Practice, and state insurance law respecting the offering of variable life insurance policies and variable annuity contracts.

2.4           The Distributor shall sell and distribute the shares of the Funds in accordance with the applicable provisions of the 1933 Act, the 1934 Act, the 1940 Act, the NASD Rules of Fair Practice, and state law.

2.5           During such time as the Trust engages in activities that require a Mixed and Shared Funding Exemptive Order, a majority of the Trust’s Board shall consist of persons who are not "interested persons" of the Trust ("Independent Trustees"), as defined by Section 2(a)(19) of the 1940 Act and the rules thereunder, and as modified by any applicable orders of the SEC, except that if this provision of this Article 2.5 is not met by reason of the death, disqualification, or bona fide resignation of any Trustee or Trustees, then the operation of this provision shall be suspended (a) for a period of 45 days if the vacancy or vacancies may be filled by the Trust’s Board; (b) for a period of 60 days if a vote of shareholders is required to fill the vacancy or vacancies; or (c) for such longer period as the SEC may prescribe by rule or order upon application.

2.6           As long as pass through voting is required by the SEC, and provided it is consistent with their fiduciary duties, Hartford and its agents will not in any way recommend any proposal in opposition to, or oppose or interfere with, any proposal submitted by the Trust at a meeting of owners of Contracts or shareholders of the Funds, and will in no way recommend any proposal in opposition to, or oppose or interfere with, the solicitation of proxies by the Trust of shares held by Contract owners, without the prior written consent of the Trust.

2.7           Each party hereto shall cooperate with each other party and all appropriate governmental authorities having jurisdiction (including, without limitation, the SEC, the NASD, and state insurance regulators) and shall permit such authorities reasonable access to its books and records in connection with any investigation or inquiry relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby.

ARTICLE VI.  DIVERSIFICATION

6.1           The Trust and the Adviser represent and warrant that, at all times, they will comply with Section 817(h) of the Code, the regulations promulgated thereunder, and any Internal Revenue Service guidance, relating to the diversification requirements for variable annuity, endowment, or life insurance contracts and any amendments or other modifications to such statutory, regulatory or administrative authority.  In the event a Fund ceases to so qualify, the Trust and the Adviser will immediately take all steps necessary (a) to notify Hartford of such event and (b) to adequately diversify the Fund so as to achieve compliance within the period afforded by Treasury Regulation 817-5.

ARTICLE VII.  POTENTIAL CONFLICTS

If and during the time that the Trust engages in activities that require a Mixed and Shared Funding Exemptive Order, the parties shall comply with the conditions in this Article VII.

7.1           The Board will monitor the Trust for the existence of any material irreconcilable conflict (1) between the interests of owners of variable annuity contracts and variable life insurance policies, and (2) between the interests of owners of Contracts issued by different participating life insurance companies that invest in the Trust.

A.           The Board shall promptly inform Hartford if it determines that a material irreconcilable conflict exists and the implications thereof.  A material irreconcilable conflict may arise for a variety of reasons, including:  (a) an action by any state insurance regulatory authority; (b) a change in applicable federal or state insurance, tax, or securities laws or regulations, or a public ruling, private letter ruling, no-action or interpretive letter, or any similar action by insurance, tax, or securities regulatory authorities; (c) an administrative or judicial decision in any relevant proceeding; (d) the manner in which the investments of any Fund are being managed; (e) a difference in voting instructions given by variable annuity and variable life insurance Contract owners; or (f) disregard of a Contract owner's voting instructions.

7.2           Hartford will report any potential or existing material irreconcilable conflict of which it is aware to the Board.  This includes, but is not limited to, an obligation by Hartford to inform the Board whenever Contract owner voting instructions are disregarded.  Hartford will be responsible for assisting the Board in carrying out its responsibilities under any Mixed and Shared Funding Exemptive Order, or, if the Trust is engaged in mixed funding or shared funding in reliance on Rule 6e-2, 6e-3(T), or any other regulation under the 1940 Act, Hartford will be responsible for assisting the Board in carrying out its responsibilities under such regulation, by providing the Board with access to all information reasonably necessary for the Board to consider any issues raised.  Hartford shall carry out its responsibility under this Article 7.2 with a view only to the interests of the Contract owners.

7.3           If it is determined by a majority of the Trust’s Board, or a majority of its Independent Trustees, that a material irreconcilable conflict exists due to issues relating to the Contracts, Hartford will, at its expense and to the extent reasonably practicable, take whatever steps it can which are necessary to remedy or eliminate the material irreconcilable conflict, including, without limitation, withdrawal of the affected Separate Account’s investment in the Funds.  No charge or penalty will be imposed as a result of such withdrawal.

7.4           Hartford and the Adviser, at least annually, will submit to the Board such reports, materials or data as the Board may reasonably request so that the Board may fully carry out the obligations imposed upon them.  All reports received by the Board of potential or existing conflicts, and all Board action with regard to determining the existence of a conflict, and determining whether any proposed action adequately remedies a conflict, shall be properly recorded in the minutes of the Board or other appropriate records, and such minutes or other records shall be made available to the SEC upon request.

A.           The Trust agrees to indemnify and hold harmless Hartford and each of its trustees, directors, officers, employees and agents and each person, if any, who controls Hartford within the meaning of Section 15 of the 1933 Act (collectively, the “Indemnified Parties” and individually, an “Indemnified Party” for purposes of this Article 8.3) against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities (including amounts paid in settlement with written consent from the Trust, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld) or expenses (including the reasonable costs of investigating or defending any losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses and reasonable legal counsel fees incurred in connection therewith) (collectively, “Losses”) to which the Indemnified Parties may become subject under any statute or regulation, at common law or otherwise, insofar as such Losses are related to the sale or acquisition of the Fund’s shares or the Contracts and:

1.           Arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of any material fact contained in Fund Documents 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 indemnity 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 Distributor or Trust or designee of either by or on behalf of Hartford for use in Fund Documents or otherwise for use in connection with the sale of the Contracts or Fund shares; or

2.           Arise out of or result from statements or representations (other than statements or representations contained in Company Documents not supplied by the Distributor or persons under its control) or wrongful conduct of the Trust, or persons under its control, with respect to the sale or distribution of the Contracts or Fund shares; or

8.4           Indemnification by the Adviser

A.           The Adviser agrees to indemnify and hold harmless Hartford, the Trust or the Distributor and each of their trustees, directors, officers, employees and agents and each person, if any, who controls Hartford, the Trust and the Distributor, respectively, within the meaning of Section 15 of the 1933 Act (collectively, the “Indemnified Parties” and individually, an “Indemnified Party” for purposes of this Article 8.4) against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities (including amounts paid in settlement with written consent from the Adviser, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld) or expenses (including the reasonable costs of investigating or defending any losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses and reasonable legal counsel fees incurred in connection therewith) (collectively, “Losses”) to which the Indemnified Parties may become subject under any statute or regulation, at common law or otherwise, insofar as such Losses are related to the sale or acquisition of the Fund's shares or the Contracts and;

1.           Arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of any material fact provided by the Adviser and contained in a Fund Document or arise out of or are based upon the omission or the alleged omission to state therein a material fact about the Adviser required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, provided that this indemnity 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 Adviser or Trust or the designee of either by or on behalf of Hartford for use in Fund Documents or otherwise for use in connection with the sale of the Contracts or Fund shares; or

2.           Arise out of or result from statements or representations (other than statements or representations contained in Company Documents not supplied by the Adviser or persons under its control) or wrongful conduct of the Adviser or persons under its control, with respect to the sale or distribution of the Contracts or Fund shares; or

3.           Arise out of or result from any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in Company Documents, 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 by or on behalf of the Adviser; or

4.           Arise out of or result from any failure by the Adviser to provide the services and furnish the materials under the terms of this Agreement; or

5.           Arise out of or result from any material breach of any representation and/or warranty made by the Adviser in this Agreement or arise out of or result from any other material breach of this Agreement by the Adviser, as limited by and in accordance with the provisions of Articles 8.4(B) and 8.5 hereof.

B.           The Adviser shall not be liable under this indemnification provision with respect to any Losses 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 of such Indemnified Party's duties or by reason of such Indemnified Party's reckless disregard of obligations and duties under this Agreement or to Hartford or the Separate Accounts, whichever is applicable.

8.5           Notice of Indemnification; Retention of Counsel

A.           Any party seeking indemnification (each a “Potential Indemnitee”) shall promptly notify any party from whom it intends to seek indemnification (each a “Potential Indemnitor”) of all demands made and/or actions commenced against the Potential Indemnitee which may require a Potential Indemnitor to provide such indemnification.  A Potential Indemnitor shall not be liable under this indemnification provision with respect to any claim made against a Potential Indemnitee unless such Potential Indemnitee shall have notified the Potential Indemnitor 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 Potential Indemnitee (or after such Potential Indemnitee shall have received notice of such service on any designated agent), but failure to notify the Potential Indemnitor of any such claim shall not relieve the Potential Indemnitor from any liability which it may have to the Potential Indemnitee against whom such action is brought otherwise than on account of this indemnification provision.

B.           In case any such action is brought against a Potential Indemnitee, the Potential Indemnitor shall be entitled to participate, at its own expense, in the defense of such action.  The Potential Indemnitor also shall be entitled to assume the defense thereof, with counsel satisfactory to the party named in the action.  After notice from the Potential Indemnitor to such party of the Potential Indemnitor’s election to assume the defense thereof, the Potential Indemnitee shall bear the fees and expenses of any additional counsel retained by it, and the Potential Indemnitor 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.

8.6           With respect to any claim for indemnification made under this Agreement, the parties each shall give the other reasonable access during normal business hours to its books, records, and employees and those books, records, and employees within its control pertaining to such claim, and shall otherwise cooperate with one another in the defense of any claim.  Regardless of which party defends a particular claim, the defending party shall give the other parties written notice of any significant development in the case as soon as practicable, and such other party, at all times, shall have the right to intervene in the defense of the case.

8.7           If a party is defending a claim and indemnifying one or more parties to this Agreement, and:  (i) a settlement proposal is made by the claimant, or (ii) the defending party desires to present a settlement proposal to the claimant, then the defending party promptly shall notify the other party or parties to this Agreement being indemnified of such settlement proposal together with its counsel’s recommendation.  If the defending party desires to enter into the settlement and any of the other parties fails to consent within five (5) Business Days (unless such period is extended, in writing, by mutual agreement of the parties hereto), then each such other party withholding consent, from the time it fails to consent forward, shall defend the claim and shall further indemnify the defending party and other remaining parties subject to this Agreement, if any, for all costs associated with the claim which are in excess of the proposed settlement amount.

Regardless of which party is defending the claim:  (i) if a settlement requires an admission of liability by the non-defending party or would require the non-defending party to either take action (other than purely ministerial action) or refrain from taking action (due to an injunction or otherwise) (a “Specific Performance Settlement”), the defending party may agree to such settlement only after obtaining the express, written consent of the non-defending party.  If a non-defending party fails to consent to a Specific Performance Settlement, the consequences described in the last sentence of the first paragraph of this Article 8.7 shall not apply.

8.8           The parties shall use good faith efforts to resolve any dispute concerning this indemnification obligation.  Should those efforts fail to resolve the dispute, the ultimate resolution shall be determined in a de novo proceeding, separate and apart from the underlying matter complained of, before a court of competent jurisdiction.  Either party may initiate such proceedings with a court of competent jurisdiction at any time following the termination of the efforts by such parties to resolve the dispute (termination of such efforts shall be deemed to have occurred thirty (30) days from the commencement of the same unless such time period is extended by the written agreement of the parties).  The prevailing party in such a proceeding shall be entitled to recover reasonable attorneys’ fees, costs, and expenses.

ARTICLE IX.  APPLICABLE LAW

9.1           This Agreement shall be construed and the provisions hereof interpreted under and in accordance with the laws of the State of Connecticut.

9.2           This Agreement, its terms and definitions, shall be subject to the provisions of the 1933, 1934 and 1940 Acts, and the rules and regulations and rulings thereunder, including such exemptions from those statutes, rules and regulations as the SEC may grant.

ARTICLE X.  TERMINATION

10.1           This Agreement may be terminated without penalty:

A.           By any party for any reason upon six months’ advance written notice delivered to all of the other parties, it being understood that no party may give notice under this provision until one (1) year from the effective date of this Agreement; or

B.           By Hartford by written notice to the Trust, the Adviser and the Distributor with respect to any Fund in the event any of the Fund’s shares are not registered, issued or sold in accordance with applicable state and/or federal law, or such law precludes the use of such shares as the underlying investment vehicle of the Contracts issued or to be issued by Hartford; or

C.           By Hartford upon written notice to the Trust with respect to any Fund in the event that such Fund ceases to qualify as a Regulated Investment Company under Subchapter M of the Code or under any successor or similar provision; or

D.           By Hartford upon written notice to the Trust and the Distributor with respect to any Fund in the event that such Fund fails to meet the diversification requirements specified in this Agreement; or

E.           By Hartford upon institution of formal proceedings against the Trust, the Adviser or the Distributor by the NASD, the SEC, or any state securities or insurance department or any other regulatory body; or

F.           By the Distributor, the Adviser or the Trust upon written notice to Hartford with respect to any Separate Account in the event that such Separate Account ceases to be qualified as a segregated asset account under the Connecticut Insurance Code; or

G.           By the Distributor, the Adviser or the Trust upon written notice with respect to any Separate Account in the event that effective registration as a unit investment trust under the 1940 Act for such Separate Account is not maintained; or

H.           By the Distributor, the Adviser or the Trust in the event that the Contracts cease to be treated as annuity contracts under the applicable provisions of the Code; or

I.           By the Distributor, the Adviser or the Trust in the event that effective registration or exemption from registration under the 1933 Act of the Contracts is not maintained; or

J.           By the Distributor or the Trust upon institution of formal proceedings against Hartford or its agent by the NASD, the SEC, or any state securities or insurance department or any other regulatory body regarding Hartford's duties under this Agreement or related to the sale of the Contracts issued by Hartford, the operation of the Separate Accounts, or the purchase of shares of the Funds; or

K.           By any party to the Agreement upon a determination by a majority of the Board, or a majority of its Independent Trustees, that a material irreconcilable conflict, as described in Article VII hereof, exists; or

L.           By any party to the Agreement upon requisite vote of the Contract owners having an interest in the Separate Accounts (or any subaccounts thereof) to substitute the shares of another investment company for the corresponding shares of a Fund in accordance with the terms of the Contracts for which those shares had been selected or serve as the underlying investment media; or

M.           By either the Adviser or the Distributor in the event of a termination of either of their contracts with the Trust, but each shall use their best efforts to substitute themselves under this Agreement with any successor investment adviser or distributor to the Trust.

10.2           Each party to this Agreement shall promptly notify the other parties to the Agreement of the institution against such party of any such formal proceedings as described in Articles 10.1(E) and (J) hereof.  Hartford shall give 60 days prior written notice to the Trust of the date of any proposed vote of Contract owners to replace the Fund's shares as described in Article 10.1(M) hereof.

10.3           Effect of Termination

A.           Notwithstanding any termination of this Agreement, the Trust and the Distributor shall at the option of Hartford, continue to make available additional shares of the Funds, for the limited purposes set forth in this Section 10.3(A), pursuant to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, for all Contracts in effect on the effective date of termination of this Agreement (the "Existing Contracts") unless such further sale of Fund shares is proscribed by law, regulation or applicable regulatory body.  Specifically, without limitation, the owners of the Existing Contracts will be permitted to reinvest dividends in the Funds, direct allocation and reallocation of investments in the Funds, redeem investments in the Funds and invest in the Funds through additional purchase payments.

B.           Hartford agrees not to redeem Fund shares attributable to the Contracts except (i) as necessary to implement Contract owner initiated or approved transactions, or (ii) as required by state and/or federal laws or regulations or judicial or other legal precedent of general application or (iii) as permitted by an order of the SEC pursuant to Section 26(h) of the 1940 Act.  Upon request, Hartford will promptly furnish to the Trust the opinion of counsel for Hartford to the effect that any redemption pursuant to clause (ii) above is a legally required redemption.

C.           In addition to the foregoing, Article VIII Indemnification, Article IX and Article 12.1 shall survive any termination of this Agreement.

10.4           Notwithstanding the termination of this Agreement, Huntington will continue to pay service fees in accordance with Article 1.9 so long as net assets of Hartford or a Separate Account remain in a Fund and Hartford continues to provide services, provided such continued payment is in accordance with applicable law and regulation.

SCHEDULE C

Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, Hartford shall be appointed to, and agrees to act, as a limited agent of Trust for the sole purpose of receiving instructions from authorized parties as defined by the Contracts for the purchase and redemption of Fund shares prior to the close of regular trading each Business Day.  A "Business Day” is defined in Article 1.1(B) of the Agreement.  Except as particularly stated in this paragraph, Hartford shall have no authority to act on behalf of Trust or to incur any cost or liability on its behalf.

Until such time as Trust and Hartford are able to utilize the National Securities Clearing Corporation ("NSCC") Defined Contribution Clearing and Settlement ("DCC&S") Fund/SERV system:  Trust will use its best efforts to provide to Hartford or its designated agent closing net asset value, change in net asset value, dividend or daily accrual rate information and capital gain information by 6:30 p.m. Eastern Time each Business Day.  Hartford or its agent shall use this data to calculate unit values.  Unit values shall be used to process the same Business Day’s contract transactions.  Orders derived from, and in amounts equal to, instructions received by Hartford prior to the Close of Trading on the New York Stock Exchange on any Business Day ("Day 1") shall be transmitted without modification (except for netting or aggregating such orders) to Trust by 8:30 a.m. Eastern Time on the next Business Day.  Such trades will be effected at the net asset value of each Fund's shares calculated as of the Close of Trading on Day 1. Trust will not accept any order made on a conditional basis or subject to any delay or contingency.

Until such time as Trust and Hartford are able to utilize the DCC&S Fund/SERV system, each party shall, as soon as practicable after transmittal of an instruction or confirmation, verify the other party’s receipt of such instruction or confirmation, and in the absence of such verification such a party to whom an instruction or confirmation is sent shall not be liable for any failure to act in accordance with such instruction or confirmation, and the sending party may not claim that such an instruction or confirmation was received by the other.  Each party shall notify the other of any errors, omissions or interruptions in, or delay or unavailability as promptly as possible.

 
a)
For those purchase orders not transmitted via the DCC&S Fund/SERV system, Hartford shall complete payment to Trust or its designated agent in federal funds no later than 3:00 P.M. on the Business Day following the day on which the instructions are treated as having been received by Trust pursuant to this Agreement.

 
b)
For those redemption orders not transmitted via the DCC&S Fund/SERV system, Trust or its designated agent shall initiate payment in federal funds no later than 3:00 P.M. on the Business Day following the day on which the instructions are treated as having been received by Trust pursuant to this Agreement.

At such time as Trust and Hartford are able to transmit information via the NSCC's DCC&S Fund/SERV System:

 
a)
Orders derived from, and in amounts equal to, instructions received by Hartford prior to the Close of Trading on Day 1 shall be transmitted without modification (except for netting and aggregation of such orders) via the NSCC's DCC&S Fund/SERV system to Trust no later than 5:00 a.m. Eastern Time on the Next Business Day.  Such trades will be effected at the net asset value of each Fund's shares calculated as of the Close of Trading on Day 1.

 
b)
Trust and Hartford shall mutually agree there may be instances when orders shall be transmitted to Trust via facsimile no later than 8:30 a.m. rather than through the DCC&S Fund/SERV system.  In such instances, such orders shall be transmitted to Trust via facsimile no later than 8:30 a.m. Eastern Time on the next Business Day.

 
c)
With respect to purchase and redemption orders received by Trust on any Business Day for any Fund, within the time limits set forth in this Agreement, settlement shall occur consistent with the requirements of DCC&S Fund/SERV system.

At such time as Trust and Hartford are able to transmit information via the DCC&S Fund/SERV system: Trust or its designated agent shall send to Hartford, via the DCC&S Fund/SERV system, verification of net purchase or redemption orders or notification of the rejection of such orders ("Confirmations ") on each Business Day for which Hartford has transmitted such orders.  Such confirmations shall include the total number of shares of each Fund held by Hartford following such net purchase or redemption. Trust, or its designated agent, shall submit in a timely manner, such confirmations to the DCC&S Fund/SERV system in order for Hartford to receive such confirmations no later than 11:00 a.m. Eastern Time the next Business Day. Trust or its designated agent will transmit to Hartford via DCC&S NETWORKING system those Networking activity files reflecting account activity.  In addition, within five (5) Business Days after the end of each month, Trust or its affiliate will send Hartford a statement of account which shall confirm all transactions made during that particular month in the account.
