To help limit fund expenses, effective July 1, 2000 Pacific Life contractually agreed to waive all or part of its investment advisory fees or otherwise reimburse each portfolio for operating expenses (including organizational expenses, but not including advisory fees, additional costs associated with foreign investing and extraordinary expenses) that exceed an annual rate of 0.10% of its average daily net assets. Such waiver or reimbursement is subject to repayment to Pacific Life to the extent such expenses fall below the 0.10% expense cap. For each portfolio, Pacific Life's right to repayment is limited to amounts waived and/or reimbursed that exceed the new 0.10% expense cap and, except for portfolios that started on or after October 2, 2000, that do not exceed the previously established 0.25% expense cap. Any amounts repaid to Pacific Life will have the effect of increasing such expenses of the portfolio, but not above the 0.10% expense cap. There is no guarantee that Pacific Life will continue to cap expenses after December 31, 2001. In 2000, Pacific Life reimbursed approximately $13,202 to the I-Net Tollkeeper Portfolio, $36,311 to the Strategic Value Portfolio, $34,134 to the Focused 30 Portfolio and $27,505 to the Small-Cap Index Portfolio.

There were no actual advisory fees or expenses for these portfolios in 2000 because the portfolios started after December 31, 2000. /2/ Total adjusted net expenses for these portfolios, after deduction of an offset for custodian credits and the 12b-1 recapture were: 0.84% for Aggressive Equity Portfolio, 1.30% for Emerging Markets Portfolio, 0.98% for Diversified Research Portfolio, 0.69% for Small-Cap Equity Portfolio, 1.60% for I-Net Tollkeeper Portfolio, 0.69% for Equity Income Portfolio, 0.88% for Mid-Cap Value Portfolio, 0.60% for Small-Cap Index Portfolio, 0.62% for Inflation Managed Portfolio, 0.64% for Managed Bond Portfolio, 0.64% for High Yield Bond Portfolio, and 0.90% for Large-Cap Value Portfolio. + The fund has a brokerage enhancement 12b-1 plan under which brokerage transactions, subject to best price and execution, may be placed with certain broker-dealers in return for credits, cash or other compensation ("recaptured commissions"). While a portfolio pays the cost of brokerage when it buys or sells a portfolio security, there are no fees or charges to the fund under the plan. Recaptured commissions may be used to promote and market fund shares and the distributor may therefore defray expenses for distribution that it might otherwise incur.

After the youngest person insured by the policy reaches age 100, the death benefit equals the accumulated value. --------------------------------------------------------- Choosing your death You can choose one of the following four options for benefit option the death benefit on your application. The graphs below help you compare the options using several hypothetical examples. Option A - the Option B - the face amount of face amount of your policy plus its accumulated your policy. value. [ILLUSTRATION [ILLUSTRATION APPEARS HERE] APPEARS HERE] The death benefit changes as your policy's accumulated value changes. The better your investment options perform, the larger the death benefit will be. Option C - the Option D - the face amount of face amount of your policy multiplied by a your policy plus death benefit factor. the total premiums you've paid minus any withdrawals or [ILLUSTRATION APPEARS HERE] distributions made. The death benefit gradually increases over time no matter how your investment options [ILLUSTRATION perform, as long as there is APPEARS HERE] enough accumulated value to keep your policy in force. The more premiums you pay and the less you withdraw, the larger the death benefit will be. 18 --------------------------------------------------------- How we calculate the death benefit for Option D If you choose Option D, we'll calculate the death benefit by multiplying the face amount by a death benefit factor. The death benefit factor is a number from 1.0 to 2.0. A factor of 1.0 means the death benefit equals the face amount. A factor of 2.0 means the death benefit is two times the face amount. The factor changes on each policy anniversary and is based on the joint equal age of the people insured by the policy and the number of completed policy years. Joint equal age is a calculation that blends the ages and insurance risks of the two people insured by the policy. Generally, the death benefit factor will reach the maximum of 2.0 when joint equal age plus the number of completed policy years is between 85 and 90. You'll find more information about how we calculate joint equal age in Appendix A. You'll find more information about the death benefit factor in Appendix D and in your policy. --------------------------------------------------------- The guideline The guideline minimum death benefit is the minimum minimum death death benefit needed for your policy to qualify as life benefit insurance under Section 7702 of the Internal Revenue Code. If the amount of the death benefit under the If your policy's option you choose is less than the guideline minimum death benefit is death benefit, we'll adjust your death benefit to equal equal to the the guideline minimum death benefit. guideline minimum death benefit, and We calculate the guideline minimum death benefit by the net amount at multiplying the accumulated value of your policy by a risk is more than death benefit percentage.

The examples are intended only to show differences in death benefits and net amounts at risk. Accumulated value assumptions may not be realistic. Example A assumes These examples show that each death benefit option the following: provides a different level of protection.

Example B uses the same assumptions as Example A, but has an accumulated value of $1,400,000. Because accumulated value has increased, the guideline minimum death benefit is now $1,680,000 ($1,400,000 times a death benefit factor of 120%).

We'll treat any payment you make during the life of your policy as a loan repayment, not as a premium payment, unless you tell us otherwise. When a payment, or any portion of it, exceeds your outstanding loan amount, we'll treat it as a premium payment. Some states may require us to consider your payments as premium payments if you have not given us instructions to do otherwise. Monthly Uni-check plan Once you've made your first premium payment, you can make monthly premium payments using our Uni-check plan. Here's how it works: . you authorize us to withdraw a specified amount from your checking account each month . you can choose any day between the 4th and 28th of the month . if you do not specify a day for us to make the withdrawal, we'll withdraw the premium payment on your policy's monthly anniversary. If your policy's monthly anniversary falls on the 1st, 2nd or 3rd of the month, we'll withdraw the payment on the 4th of each month. 22 --------------------------------------------------------- Deductions from We deduct a premium load from each premium payment you your premiums make. The load is made up of three charges: Your net premium is Sales load your premium During the first 10 years of your policy, we deduct a payment less the 0% sales load from each premium payment you make. The premium load. sales load is 3% after the 10th policy year. This charge helps pay for the cost of distributing our policies and is guaranteed not to increase. If our sales and distribution expenses are more than the sales load, we can recover these expenses from other charges, such as the mortality and expense risk charge and the surrender charge, and from any mortality gains. State and local tax charge We deduct 2.35% from each premium payment to pay state and local premium and other taxes. The actual taxes we pay vary from state to state, and in some instances, among municipalities. This rate approximates the average rate we pay for all states. We do not expect to profit from this charge, and do not expect to change the rate unless the rate we pay increases. Federal tax charge We deduct 1.50% from each premium payment to pay federal taxes. We reserve the right to change this rate to respond to changes in law. --------------------------------------------------------- Allocating your We generally allocate your net premiums to the premiums investment options you've chosen on your application on the day we receive them.

Your policy's guideline single premium and guideline level annual premiums appear on your policy's specification pages. We may refuse to accept all or part of a premium payment if, by accepting it, you will exceed your policy's guideline premium limit. If we find that you've exceeded your guideline premium limit, we may remove all or part of a premium you've paid from your policy as of the day we applied it, and return it to you. We'll adjust the death benefit retroactively to that date to reflect the reduction in premium payments. 23 HOW PREMIUMS WORK You'll find a . If applying the premium in that policy year means your detailed discussion policy will become a modified endowment contract. of modified endowment contracts A life insurance policy will become a modified in Variable life endowment contract if the sum of premium payments made insurance and your during the first seven contract years, less a portion taxes. of withdrawals, exceeds the seven-pay limit defined in Section 7702A of the Internal Revenue Code. Unless you've told us in writing that you want your policy to become a modified endowment contract, we'll remove all or part of the premium payment from your policy as of the day we applied it and return it to you. We'll also adjust the death benefit retroactively to that date to reflect the reduction in premium payments. If we receive such a premium within 20 days before your policy anniversary, we'll hold it and apply it to your policy on the anniversary date. In both of these situations, if we remove an excess premium from your policy, we'll return the premium amount to you no later than 60 days after the end of that policy year. We may adjust the amount for interest or for changes in accumulated value that relate to the amount of the excess premium payment we're returning to you. If we do not return the premium amount to you within that time, we'll increase your policy's death benefit retroactively, to the day we applied the premium, and prospectively, so that it's always the amount necessary to ensure your policy qualifies as life insurance, or to prevent it from becoming a modified endowment contract. If we increase your death benefit, we'll adjust cost of insurance or rider charges retroactively and prospectively to reflect the increase. Net amount at risk . If applying the premium payment to your policy will is the difference increase the net amount at risk.

We will not accept premium payments after the youngest person insured by the policy reaches age 100. 24 YOUR POLICY'S ACCUMULATED VALUE Accumulated value Accumulated value is the value of your policy on any is used as the business day. basis for determining policy We use it to calculate how much money is available to benefits and you for loans and withdrawals, and how much you'll charges. receive if you surrender your policy. It also affects the amount of the death benefit if you choose a death benefit option that's calculated using accumulated value. The accumulated value of your policy is not guaranteed - it depends on the performance of the investment options you've chosen, the premium payments you've made, policy charges and how much you've borrowed or withdrawn from the policy. --------------------------------------------------------- Calculating your Your policy's accumulated value is the total amount policy's allocated to the variable investment options and the accumulated value fixed options, plus the amount in the loan account. Please see Taking We determine the value allocated to the variable out a loan for investment options on any business day by multiplying information about the number of accumulation units for each variable loans and the loan investment option credited to your policy on that day, account. by the variable investment option's unit value at the end of that day. The process we use to calculate unit values for the variable investment options is described in Your investment options. --------------------------------------------------------- Monthly deductions We deduct a monthly charge from your policy's accumulated value in the investment options each If there is not monthly payment date. enough accumulated value to pay the Unless you tell us otherwise, we deduct the monthly monthly charge, charge from the investment options that make up your your policy could policy's accumulated value, in proportion to the lapse. The accumulated value you have in each option. This charge performance of the is made up of three charges: investment options you choose, not Cost of insurance making planned This charge is for providing you with life insurance premium payments, protection.

There are maximum or guaranteed cost of insurance rates You'll find a associated with your policy. When the younger of the discussion about two people insured by your policy reaches age 100, the when your policy guaranteed cost of insurance rate is zero - in other might lapse, and words, you no longer pay any cost of insurance. what you can do to reinstate it, later The guaranteed rates include the insurance risks in this section. associated with insuring two people. They are calculated using 1980 Commissioners Standard Ordinary Unisex rates are Mortality Tables or the 1980 Commissioners Ordinary used when a policy Mortality Table B, which are used for unisex cost of is owned by an insurance rates. The rates are also based on the ages, employer in gender and risk classes of the people insured by the connection with policy unless unisex rates are required. employment-related or benefit Our current cost of insurance rates will apply programs. uniformly to all members of the same class. Any changes in the cost of insurance will apply uniformly to all Class is determined members of the same class. These rates generally by a number of increase as the ages of the two people increase, and factors, including they vary with the number of years the policy has been the age, risk in force. Our current rates are lower than the classification, guaranteed rates and they will not exceed the smoking status and guaranteed rates in the future. gender (unless unisex rates are required) of the two people insured by the policy, and the policy date and duration. 25 YOUR POLICY'S ACCUMULATED VALUE --------------------------------------------------------- How we calculate cost of insurance We calculate cost of insurance by multiplying the current cost of insurance rate by a discounted net amount at risk at the beginning of each policy month. Net amount at risk for the cost of insurance calculation is the difference between a discounted death benefit that would be payable if both people insured by the policy died, and the accumulated value of your policy. We calculate it in two steps: . Step 1: we divide the death benefit that would be payable at the beginning of the policy month by 1.002466. . Step 2: we subtract your policy's accumulated value at the beginning of the policy month from the amount we calculated in step 1. Administrative charge We deduct a charge of $7.50 a month. We guarantee that this charge will not increase. When the younger of the two people insured by the policy reaches age 100, the administrative charge is zero - in other words, you no longer pay any administrative charge. If you buy additional Pacific Select Estate Preserver - NY policies that insure the same two people, we will not deduct the administrative charge from the additional policies. Instead, we'll deduct $200 from each policy's first premium payment to help cover our processing costs. Mortality and expense risk charge Mortality risk is the chance that the people insured by policies we've issued do not live as long as expected. This means the cost of insurance charges specified in the policies may not be enough to pay out actual claims. Expense risk is the chance that our actual administrative and operating expenses are more than expenses we expected. The mortality and expense risk charge helps compensate us for these risks. It has two components, which are described in the box on the following page. We guarantee this charge will not increase. Charges for optional riders If you add any riders to your policy, we add any charges for them to your monthly charge. 26 --------------------------------------------------------- An example How we calculate the mortality and expense risk charge For a policy with: The mortality and expense risk charge has two . a joint equal age components: a face amount component and an accumulated of 50 value component. . a face amount of $100,000 . Face amount component We deduct a face amount . accumulated value component every month during the first 10 policy of $60,000 after years, at a rate that is based on the joint equal age deducting any on the policy date and each $1,000 of the initial outstanding loan face amount of your policy. The rates for the face amount. amount component are shown in Appendix B. Joint equal age is a calculation that combines the ages and The maximum monthly insurance risks of the two people insured by the charge for the face policy, and is explained in Appendix A. amount component is $15.50 . Accumulated value component We deduct an accumulated (($100,000 / 1,000) value component every month during the first 20 X 0.155). policy years at an annual rate of 0.90% (0.075% monthly) of your policy's accumulated value in the The monthly charge investment options. During policy years 11 through for the accumulated 20, we reduce the annual rate to 0.30% (0.025% value component is monthly) of the accumulated value. During policy year $45 ($60,000 X 21 and thereafter, we further reduce the annual rate 0.075%). The charge to 0.05% (0.0042% monthly) of the accumulated value. in policy years 11 For the purposes of this charge, the amount of through 20 would be accumulated value is calculated on the monthly $15 ($60,000 payment date after we deduct the cost of insurance X 0.025%) if the and charges for any optional riders. policy's accumulated value was $60,000. The charge in policy year 21 (and thereafter) would be $2.52 ($60,000 X .0042%) if the policy's accumulated value was $60,000. --------------------------------------------------------- Lapsing and Your policy will lapse if there is not enough reinstatement accumulated value, after subtracting any outstanding loan amount, to cover the monthly charge on the day we make the deduction. Your policy's accumulated value is affected by the following: . loans or withdrawals you make from your policy . not making planned premium payments . the performance of your investment options . charges under the policy. There is no guarantee that your policy will not lapse even if you pay your planned periodic premium. If there is not enough accumulated value to pay the total monthly charge, we deduct the amount that's available and send you, and anyone you've assigned your policy to, a notice telling you the minimum amount you have to pay to keep your policy in force. This minimum amount is equal to three times the monthly charge that was due on the monthly payment date when there was not enough accumulated value to pay the charge. We'll give you a grace period of 61 days from when we send the notice to pay the required premium. Your policy will remain in force during the grace period. If you do not make the minimum payment If we do not receive your payment within the grace period, your policy will lapse with no value. This means we'll end your life insurance coverage. 27 YOUR POLICY'S ACCUMULATED VALUE If you make the minimum payment If we receive your payment within the grace period, we'll allocate your net premium to the investment options you've chosen and deduct the monthly charge from your investment options in proportion to the accumulated value you have in each option. Remember to tell us If your policy is in danger of lapsing and you have an if a payment is a outstanding loan amount, you may find that making the premium payment. minimum payment would cause the total premiums paid to Otherwise, we'll exceed the maximum amount for your policy's face amount treat it as a loan under tax laws. In that situation, we will not accept repayment. the portion of your payment that would exceed the maximum amount. To stop your policy from lapsing, you'll have to repay a portion of your outstanding loan amount. How to avoid future lapsing To stop your policy from lapsing in the future, you may want to make larger or more frequent premium payments if tax laws permit it. Or if you have a loan, you may want to repay a portion if it. Paying death benefit proceeds during the grace period If the last surviving person insured by the policy dies during the grace period, we'll pay death benefit proceeds to your beneficiary. We'll reduce the payment by any unpaid monthly charges and any outstanding loan amount. Reinstating a lapsed policy If your policy lapses, you have five years from the end of the grace period to apply for a reinstatement. We'll reinstate it if you send us the following: . a written application . evidence satisfactory to us that the two people insured by the policy are still insurable . a premium payment sufficient to keep your policy in force for three months after the day your policy is reinstated . payment of all unpaid monthly charges that were due in the grace period. We'll reinstate your policy as of the first monthly payment date on or after the day we approve the reinstatement. When we reinstate your policy, its accumulated value will be the same as it was on the day your policy lapsed. We'll allocate it according to your most recent premium allocation instructions. Reinstating a lapsed policy with an outstanding loan amount If you had an outstanding loan amount when your policy lapsed, we will not pay or credit interest on it during the period between the lapsing and reinstatement of your policy. There are special rules that apply to reinstating a policy with an outstanding loan amount: . If we reinstate your policy on the first monthly payment date that immediately follows the lapse, we'll also reinstate the loan amount that was outstanding the day your policy lapsed. . If we reinstate your policy on any monthly payment date other than the monthly payment date that immediately follows the lapse, we'll deduct the outstanding loan amount from your policy's accumulated value. This means you will no longer have an outstanding loan amount when your policy is reinstated. 28 YOUR INVESTMENT OPTIONS This section tells you about the investment options available under your policy and how they work.

We calculate the unit value for policy with 400 each variable account once every business day, usually units ($6,000 at or about 4:00 p.m. Eastern time. divided by $15). Generally, for any transaction, we'll use the next unit The value of an value calculated after we receive your written request. accumulation unit If we receive your written request before 4:00 p.m. is not the same as Eastern time, we'll use the unit value calculated as of the value of a the end of that business day. If we receive your share in the request on or after 4:00 p.m. Eastern time, we'll use underlying the unit value calculated as of the end of the next portfolio. business day. For information If a scheduled transaction falls on a day that is not a about timing of business day, we'll process it as of the end of the transactions, see next business day. For your monthly charge, we'll use Pacific Select the unit value calculated on your monthly payment date. Estate If your monthly payment date does not fall on a Preserver - NY business day, we'll use the unit value calculated as of basics. the end of the next business day. The unit value calculation is based on the following: . the investment performance of the underlying portfolio . any dividends or distributions paid by the underlying portfolio . any charges for any taxes that are, or may become, associated with the operation of the variable account. The unit value of a variable account will change with the value of its corresponding Pacific Select Fund portfolio. Changes in the unit value of a variable account will not change the number of accumulation units credited to your policy. A look at performance Performance information may appear in advertisements, sales literature, or reports to policy owners or prospective buyers. Information about the performance of any variable account of the separate account reflects only the performance of a hypothetical policy. The calculations are based on allocating the hypothetical policy's accumulated value to the variable account during a particular time period. Performance information is no guarantee of how a variable account will perform in the future. You should keep in mind the investment objectives and policies, characteristics and quality of the portfolio of the fund in which the variable account invests, and the market conditions during the period of time that's shown. We may show performance information in any way that's allowed under the law that applies to it. This may include presenting a change in accumulated value due to the performance of one or more variable accounts, or as a change in a policy owner's death benefit. 32 We may show performance as a change in accumulated value over time or in terms of the average annual compounded rate of return on accumulated value. This would be based on allocating premium payments for a hypothetical policy to a particular variable account over certain periods of time, including one year, or from the day the variable account started operating. If a portfolio has existed for longer than its corresponding variable account, we may also show the hypothetical returns that the variable account would have achieved had it invested in the portfolio from the day the portfolio started operating. Performance may reflect the deduction of all policy charges including premium load, the cost of insurance, the administrative charge, and the mortality and expense risk charge. The different death benefit options will result in different expenses for the cost of insurance, and the varying expenses will result in different accumulated values. Performance may also reflect the deduction of the surrender charge, if it applies, by assuming the hypothetical policy is surrendered at the end of the particular period. At the same time, we may give other performance figures that do not assume the policy is surrendered and do not reflect any deduction of the surrender charge. In our advertisements, sales literature and reports to policy owners, we may compare performance information for a variable account to: . other variable life separate accounts, mutual funds, or investment products tracked by research firms, ratings services, companies, publications, or persons who rank separate accounts or investment products on overall performance or other criteria . the Consumer Price Index, to assess the real rate of return from buying a policy by taking inflation into consideration. Reports and promotional literature may also contain our rating or a rating of our claims-paying ability. These ratings are set by firms that analyze and rate insurance companies and by nationally recognized statistical rating organizations.

We can reduce or waive the surrender charge on policies sold to our directors or employees, to any of our affiliates or to any trustees or employees or affiliates of the Pacific Select Fund. 40 --------------------------------------------------------- Joint equal age is How we calculate the surrender charge a calculation that combines the ages The surrender charge is assessed against your policy's and insurance risks accumulated value. It has two parts: an underwriting of the two people surrender charge and a sales surrender charge. Both insured by the charges are based on the joint equal age on the policy policy, and is date of the two people insured by the policy, and on explained in the initial face amount of your policy. Appendix A.

The amount of the charge does not change during the first policy year. Starting on the first policy anniversary, the charge decreases by 0.9259% each month until it reaches zero at the end of the 10th policy An example year. For a policy with: The sales surrender charge helps pay for our costs of . a joint equal age distributing policies. During the first policy year, of 50 this charge is equal to the smaller of the following . an initial face amounts: amount of $100,000. . 70% of the premium payments you've made, or . 70% of the sales surrender target, which is based on Here's the the joint equal age of the people insured by the surrender charge at policy for each $1,000 of the policy's initial face the end of the amount. first policy year: .

After that, we reduce it by surrender charge: 0.9259% a month until it reaches zero at the end of 10 $865.20 (70% X policy years. 12.36 X $100,000 / 1,000). We will not increase the charge if your policy's face amount increases. If you decrease the face amount of your policy, we'll charge you a surrender charge that's At the end of the calculated based on the amount of the decrease. third policy year, the surrender charge is reduced --------------------------------------------------------- to: Calculating the surrender charge on a decrease in face amount . Underwriting surrender charge: Here's how we calculate the surrender charge on a $404.45 ($520 - decrease in face amount: ($520 X 0.9259% X 24 months)) . Step 1: we divide the amount of the decrease by your policy's face amount immediately before the decrease . Step 2: we multiply the amount we calculated in step .

We calculate any surrender charge after a decrease in face amount by dividing the new face amount by the old face amount, and multiplying the result by the surrender charge that would have applied before the decrease. 41 GENERAL INFORMATION ABOUT YOUR POLICY This section tells you some additional things you should know about your policy. --------------------------------------------------------- Income benefit If you surrender or make a withdrawal from your policy, you can use the money to buy an income benefit that provides a monthly income. Your policy's beneficiary can use death benefit proceeds to buy an income benefit. In addition to the income benefit described below, you can choose from other income benefits we may make available from time to time. The following is one income benefit available under the Pacific Select Estate Preserver - NY policy: . The income benefit is based on the life of the person receiving the income. If the policy owner is buying the income benefit, monthly income will be based on the owner's life. If the policy's beneficiary buys the income benefit, monthly income will be based on the beneficiary's life. . We'll pay a monthly income for at least 10 years regardless of whether the person receiving the income is still alive. . After 10 years, we'll only pay the monthly income for as long as the person receiving it is still alive. . The minimum monthly income benefit calculated must be at least $100. . For this income benefit, the amount you receive will always be at least as much as the amount guaranteed by your policy. --------------------------------------------------------- Reduced Paid-Up You may use the net cash surrender value of your policy Benefit to purchase guaranteed fixed paid-up insurance on the lives of the people insured by the policy, or the life of the person insured by the policy, if only one person is living at the time of conversion. You may choose to do this on any policy anniversary while the policy is in force. If you convert your policy, your policy and any riders attached to it will terminate and the net cash surrender value will be transferred to our general account. The net cash surrender value will be applied as a net single premium to purchase paid-up insurance. The amount of such insurance will be calculated based on 1980 CSO mortality, 3% interest and on the ages and risk classifications of the people insured by the policy or, if only one person is living at the time of conversion, the age and risk classification of the surviving person. --------------------------------------------------------- Paying the death If either person insured by the policy commits suicide benefit in the case within two years of the policy date, death benefit of suicide proceeds will be the total of all premiums you've paid, less any outstanding loan amount and any withdrawals you've made. --------------------------------------------------------- Replacement of life The term replacement has a special meaning in the life insurance or insurance industry. Before you make a decision to buy, annuities we want you to understand what impact a replacement may have on your existing insurance policy. A replacement occurs when you buy a new life insurance policy or annuity contract, and a policy or contract you already own has been or will be: . lapsed, forfeited, surrendered or partially surrendered, assigned to the replacing insurer, or otherwise terminated . converted to reduced paid-up insurance, continued as extended term insurance, or otherwise reduced in value by the use of nonforfeiture benefits or other policy values 42 . amended to effect either a reduction in benefits or in the term for which coverage would otherwise remain in force or for which benefits would be paid . reissued with any reduction in cash value, or . pledged as collateral or subject to borrowing, whether in a single loan or under a schedule of borrowing over a period of time. There are circumstances when replacing your existing life insurance policy or annuity contract can benefit you. As a general rule, however, replacement is not in your best interest. You should carefully compare the costs and benefits of your existing policy or contract with those of the new policy or contract to determine whether replacement is in your best interest. --------------------------------------------------------- Errors on your If the age of either person insured by your policy is application stated incorrectly on your application, the death benefit under your policy will be the greater of the following: . the amount of death benefit that would be purchased by the most recent cost of insurance charge for the correct age or . the guideline minimum death benefit for the correct age. We'll adjust the accumulated value by recalculating all previous cost of insurance charges and other monthly deductions based on the correct age. --------------------------------------------------------- Contesting the We have the right to contest the validity of your validity of your policy for two years from the policy date. Once your policy policy has been in force for two years from the policy date during the lifetime of the people insured by the policy, we generally lose the right to contest its validity. We also have the right to contest the validity of a policy that you reinstate for two years from the day that it was reinstated. Once your reinstated policy has been in force for two years from the reinstatement date during the lifetime of the people insured by the policy, we generally lose the right to contest its validity. During this period, we may contest your policy only if there is a material misrepresentation on your application for reinstatement. We have the right to contest the validity of an increase in the face amount of a policy for two years from the day the increase becomes effective. Once the increased face amount has been in force for two years during the lifetime of the person insured by the policy, we generally lose the right to contest its validity. Regardless of the above, we can contest the validity of your policy for failure to pay premiums at any time. The policy will terminate upon successful contest with respect to either person insured by the policy. 43 GENERAL INFORMATION ABOUT YOUR POLICY --------------------------------------------------------- Assigning your You can assign your policy as collateral to secure a policy as loan, mortgage, or other kind of debt.

If you are considering the purchase of the policy to help pay federal estate taxes at death, consult with your tax advisor. --------------------------------------------------------- Tax treatment of Definition of life insurance life insurance We believe that the policy qualifies as life insurance. policies That means it will receive the same tax advantages as a conventional fixed life insurance policy.

If a policy were determined not to qualify as life insurance, the policy would not provide the tax advantages normally provided by life insurance. This includes excluding the death benefit from the gross income of the beneficiary. 45 VARIABLE LIFE INSURANCE AND YOUR TAXES While the Treasury Department has issued proposed regulations about reasonable standards for mortality charges, the standards that apply to joint survivor life insurance policies are not entirely clear. While we believe that our mortality costs and other expenses used in calculating whether the policy qualifies as life insurance are reasonable under current laws, we cannot be sure that the IRS agrees with us. We can change our mortality charges if we believe the changes are needed to ensure that your policy qualifies as a life insurance contract. Section 817(h) of Diversification rules and ownership of the separate the tax code account describes the Your policy will not qualify for the tax benefit of a diversification life insurance contract unless the separate account rules. follows certain rules requiring diversification of investments underlying the policy. In addition, the IRS For more requires that the policyholder does not have control information about over the underlying assets. diversification rules, please see The Treasury Department has announced that the Managing the diversification rules "do not provide guidance Pacific Select Fund concerning the circumstances in which it will treat an in the accompanying investor, rather than the insurance company, as the Pacific Select Fund owner of the assets in a separate account." The IRS prospectus. treats a variable policy owner as the owner of separate account assets if he or she has the ability to exercise investment control over them. Owners of the assets are taxed on any income or gains the assets generate. Although the Treasury Department announced several years ago that it would provide further guidance on the issue, it had not done so when we wrote this prospectus. The ownership rights under your policy are similar to, but different in certain respects from, those described by the IRS in rulings in which it was determined that policyowners were not owners of separate account assets. Since you have greater flexibility in allocating premiums and policy values than was the case in those rulings, it is possible the IRS would treat you as the owner of your policy's proportionate share of the assets of the separate account. We do not know what will be in future Treasury Department regulations or other guidance. We cannot guarantee that the fund's portfolios will be able to operate as currently described in the prospectus, or that the fund will not have to change any portfolio's investment objective or policies. We can modify your policy if we believe it will prevent you from being considered the owner of your policy's proportionate share of the assets of the separate account. Policy exchanges Policy exchanges fall under Section If you exchange your policy for another one that 1035(a) of the tax insures the same person, it generally will be treated code. as a tax-free exchange and, if so, will not result in the recognition of gain or loss. If any of the people insured by the policy are changed, the exchange will be treated as a taxable exchange. Change of ownership You may have taxable income if you transfer ownership of your policy, sell your policy, or change the ownership of it in any way.

We describe modified endowment Under Section 7702A contracts later in this section. If your policy is not of the tax code, a modified endowment contract, it will be treated as a policies that are conventional life insurance policy and will have the not classified as following tax treatment: modified endowment contracts are taxed Surrendering your policy as conventional When you surrender, or cash in, your policy, you'll life insurance generally be taxed on the difference, if any, between policies. the cash surrender value and the cost basis in your policy. The cost basis in your policy is Making a withdrawal generally the If you make a withdrawal after your policy has been in premiums you've force for 15 years, you'll only be taxed on the amount paid plus any you withdraw that exceeds the cost basis in the policy. taxable distributions less Special rules apply if you make a withdrawal within the any withdrawals or first 15 policy years and it's accompanied by a premiums previously reduction in benefits. In this case, there is a special recovered that were formula under which you may be taxed on all or a not taxable. portion of the withdrawal amount. Taking out a loan If you take out a loan, you will not pay tax on the loan amount unless your policy is surrendered or lapses and you have not repaid your outstanding loan amount. The interest you pay, or that's accrued, on a loan is generally nondeductible. Ask your tax adviser for more information. Loans and corporate-owned policies If you borrow money to buy or carry certain life insurance policies, tax law provisions may limit the deduction of interest payable on loan proceeds. If the taxpayer is an entity that's a direct or indirect beneficiary of certain life insurance, endowment or annuity contracts, a portion of the entity's deductions for loan interest may be disallowed, even though this interest may relate to debt that's completely unrelated to the contract. There may be a limited exception that applies to contracts issued on 20% owners, officers, directors or employees of the entity. For more information about this exception, you should consult your tax adviser. --------------------------------------------------------- Modified endowment A modified endowment contract is a special type of life contracts insurance policy. If your policy is a modified endowment contract, it will have the tax treatment Section 7702A of described below. Any distributions you receive during the tax code the life of the policy are treated differently than defines a class of under conventional life insurance policies. life insurance Withdrawals, loans, pledges, assignments and policies known as surrendering your policy are all considered modified endowment distributions and may be subject to tax on an income- contracts. Like first basis and a 10% penalty. other life insurance policies, When a policy becomes a modified endowment contract the death benefit A life insurance policy becomes a modified endowment proceeds paid to contract if, at any time during the first seven policy your beneficiary years, the sum of actual premiums paid exceeds the generally are not seven-pay limit. The seven-pay limit is the cumulative subject to federal total of the level annual premiums (or seven-pay income tax and your premiums) required to pay for the policy's future death policy's and endowment benefits. accumulated value grows on a tax- deferred basis until you receive a cash distribution. If there is a material change to your policy, like a change in the death benefit, we may have to retest your policy and restart the seven-pay premium period to determine whether the change has caused the policy to become a modified endowment contract. 47 VARIABLE LIFE INSURANCE AND YOUR TAXES For example, if the seven-pay premiums were $1,000 a year, the maximum premiums you could pay during the first seven years to avoid modified endowment treatment would be $1,000 in the first year, $2,000 through the first two years and $3,000 through the first three years, etc. Under this test, a Pacific Select Estate Preserver - NY policy may or may not be a modified endowment contract, depending on the amount of premiums paid during the policy's first seven contract years or after a material change has been made to the policy. Surrendering your policy If you surrender your policy, you're taxed on the amount by which the cash surrender value exceeds the cost basis in the policy. Making a withdrawal or taking out a loan If you make a withdrawal or take out a loan from a modified endowment contract, you're taxed on the amount of the withdrawal or loan that's considered income, including all previously non-taxed gains. Income is the difference between the cash surrender value and the cost basis in your policy. It's unclear whether interest paid, or accrued, on a loan is considered interest for federal income tax purposes. If you borrow money to buy or carry certain life insurance policies, tax law provisions may limit the deduction of interest payable on loan proceeds. You should consult your tax adviser. All modified endowment contracts we or our affiliates issue to you in a calendar year are treated as a single contract when we calculate whether a distribution amount is subject to tax. 10% penalty tax If any amount you receive from a modified endowment contract is taxable, you may also have to pay a penalty tax equal to 10% of the taxable amount. A taxpayer will not have to pay the penalty tax if any of the following exceptions apply: . you're at least 59 1/2 years old . you're receiving an amount because you've become disabled . you're receiving an amount that's part of a series of substantially equal periodic payments, paid out at least annually. These payments may be made for your life or life expectancy or for the joint lives or joint life expectancies of you and your beneficiaries. Distributions before a policy becomes a modified endowment contract If your policy fails the seven-pay test and becomes a modified endowment contract, any amount you receive or are deemed to have received during the two years before it became a modified endowment contract may be taxable. The distribution would be treated as having been made in anticipation of the policy's failing to meet the seven-pay test under Treasury Department regulations which are yet to be prescribed. --------------------------------------------------------- Policy riders Accelerated living benefits rider Amounts received under this rider should be generally Please see the excluded from taxable income under Section 101(g) of discussion of the tax code. optional riders in The death benefit.

In some cases, there may be a question as to whether a life insurance policy that has an accelerated living benefit rider can meet technical aspects of the definition of "life insurance contract" under the tax code. We may reserve the right (but are not obligated) to modify the rider to conform under tax code requirements. Split policy option rider This rider allows a policy to be split into two individual policies. If the split is not treated as a nontaxable exchange, it could result in the recognition of taxable income up to any gain or income in the policy at the time of the split. 48 ABOUT PL&A Pacific Life & Annuity Company is a life insurance company based in Arizona.

See Notes to Financial Statements (This Separate Account commenced operations on August 15, 2000) 61 PACIFIC SELECT EXEC SEPARATE ACCOUNT NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 1. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES The Pacific Select Exec Separate Account (the "Separate Account") is registered as a unit investment trust under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, and is comprised of twenty-two subaccounts called Variable Accounts: the Aggressive Equity, Emerging Markets, Diversified Research, Small- Cap Equity, International Large-Cap, Equity, I-Net Tollkeeper, Multi-Strategy, Equity Income, Strategic Value, Growth LT, Focused 30, Mid-Cap Value, Equity Index, Small-Cap Index, REIT, International Value, Government Securities, Managed Bond, Money Market, High Yield Bond, and Large-Cap Value Variable Accounts as of December 31, 2000. The assets in each Variable Account are invested in shares of the corresponding portfolios of Pacific Select Fund (the "Fund"), each of which pursues different investment objectives and policies. The financial statements of the Fund, including the schedules of investments, are provided separately and should be read in conjunction with the Separate Account's financial statements. The Separate Account was established by Pacific Life & Annuity Company (PL&A), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Pacific Life Insurance Company (Pacific Life), on September 24, 1998 and commenced operations on August 15, 2000. The following Variable Accounts commenced operations in 2000: the Money Market Variable Account commenced operations on August 15, 2000; the Aggressive Equity, Emerging Markets, Small-Cap Equity, International Large-Cap, Growth LT, Mid-Cap Value, International Value and Large-Cap Value Variable Accounts commenced operations on September 8, 2000; the Equity Index and High Yield Bond Variable Accounts commenced operations on October 2, 2000; the Small-Cap Index and Managed Bond Variable Accounts commenced on October 20, 2000; the I-Net Tollkeeper and Multi-Strategy Variable Accounts commenced operations on November 3, 2000; the Equity and Government Securities Variable Accounts commenced operations on November 27, 2000; the Equity Income Variable Account commenced operations on November 28, 2000; the Diversified Research Variable Account commenced operations on November 30, 2000; and the REIT Variable Account commenced operations on December 6, 2000. There were no operational activities in the Strategic Value and Focused 30 Variable Accounts through December 31, 2000. Under applicable insurance law, the assets and liabilities of the Separate Account are clearly identified and distinguished from the other assets and liabilities of PL&A. The assets of the Separate Account will not be charged with any liabilities arising out of any other business conducted by PL&A, but the obligations of the Separate Account, including benefits related to variable life insurance, are obligations of PL&A. The Separate Account held by PL&A represents funds from individual flexible premium variable life policies. The assets of the Separate Account are carried at market value. The financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for investment companies which require management to make certain estimates and assumptions at the date of the financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates. A. Valuation of Investments Investments in shares of the Fund are valued at the reported net asset values of the respective portfolios. Valuation of securities held by the Fund is discussed in the notes to its financial statements. B. Security Transactions and Investment Income Transactions are recorded on the trade date. Realized gains and losses on sales of investments are determined on the basis of identified cost. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date. C. Federal Income Taxes The operations of the Separate Account will be reported on the Federal income tax return of PL&A, which is taxed as a life insurance company under the provisions of the Tax Reform Act of 1986. Under current tax law, no Federal income taxes are expected to be paid by PL&A with respect to the operations of the Separate Account. 2. DIVIDENDS During 2000, the Fund declared dividends for each portfolio, except for the I- Net Tollkeeper Portfolio, invested by the Separate Account. The amounts accrued by the Separate Account for its share of the dividends were reinvested in additional full and fractional shares of the related portfolios. 3. CHARGES AND EXPENSES With respect to variable life insurance policies funded by the Separate Account, PL&A makes certain deductions from premiums for sales load and state premium taxes before amounts are allocated to the Separate Account. PL&A also makes certain deductions from the net assets of each Variable Account for the mortality and expense risks PL&A assumes, administrative expenses, cost of insurance, charges for optional benefits and any sales and underwriting surrender charges. The operating expenses of the Separate Account are paid by PL&A. 4. RELATED PARTY AGREEMENT Pacific Select Distributors, Inc. (formerly Pacific Mutual Distributors, Inc.), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Pacific Life, serves as principal underwriter of variable life insurance policies funded by interests in the Separate Account, without remuneration from the Separate Account. 62 PACIFIC SELECT EXEC SEPARATE ACCOUNT NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued) 5. SEPARATE ACCOUNT'S COST OF INVESTMENTS IN THE FUND SHARES The investment in the Fund shares are carried at identified cost, which represents the amount available for investment (including reinvested distributions of net investment income and realized gains). A reconciliation of total cost and market value of the Separate Account's investments in the Fund as of December 31, 2000 were as follows:

These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion. As described in Note 1 to the financial statements, the Company has prepared these financial statements on the accounting basis prescribed or permitted by the Insurance Department of the State of Arizona, which is a comprehensive basis of accounting other than accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The effects on such financial statements of the differences between the statutory basis of accounting and accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America are also described in Note 1. In our opinion, because of the effects of the matter described in the preceding paragraph, the financial statements referred to above do not present fairly, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, the financial position of Pacific Life & Annuity Company as of December 31, 2000 and 1999, or the results of its operations or its cash flows for the years then ended.

See Independent Auditors' Report and Notes to Financial Statements - Statutory Basis 70 Pacific Life & Annuity Company NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS-STATUTORY BASIS 1. ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES ORGANIZATION AND DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS Pacific Life & Annuity Company (PL&A) is a stock life insurance company domiciled in the State of Arizona, and a wholly owned subsidiary of Pacific Life Insurance Company (Pacific Life). PL&A provides benefit programs to employers and other benefit plan sponsors throughout the United States and offers medical, dental, life, and other ancillary coverages to small and mid-size employers, as well as flexible funding arrangements for labor management and union trusts. In addition, stop loss products are sold through Pacific Life and companion group life insurance is sold through PL&A to self-funded plan sponsors. Also, PL&A began selling structured settlement annuities in 2000. In 1999, PL&A changed its name from PM Group Life Insurance Company and received approval from the State of New York Insurance Department to transact business in the State of New York. In connection with this approval, Pacific Life contributed $97 million of additional paid-in surplus in cash to PL&A in 1999. During 2000, PL&A began selling variable life insurance and institutional products and services and filed for variable annuity product approval in the State of New York. BASIS OF PRESENTATION These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting practices prescribed or permitted by the Insurance Department of the State of Arizona, which is a comprehensive basis of accounting other than accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP). Prescribed statutory accounting practices include a variety of publications of the National Association of Insurance Commissioners (NAIC), as well as state laws, regulations, and general administrative rules. Permitted statutory accounting practices encompass all accounting practices not so prescribed. Accounting practices prescribed or permitted by the Insurance Department of the State of Arizona differ in certain respects, which in some cases are materially different from GAAP. GAAP stockholder's equity as of December 31, 2000 and 1999 was $255.5 million and $221.9 million, respectively, compared to statutory capital and surplus as included in these financial statements of $225.7 million and $200.9 million, respectively. GAAP net income for the years ended December 31, 2000 and 1999 was $30.9 million and $30.0 million, respectively, compared to statutory net income included in these financial statements of $28.2 million and $31.0 million, respectively. The significant differences are noted below: An interest maintenance reserve (IMR) is established to capture realized investment gains and losses, net of tax, on the sale of fixed income investments resulting from changes in the general level of interest rates, and is amortized into income over the remaining years to expected maturity of the assets sold under statutory accounting practices; no such reserve is allowed under GAAP. An asset valuation reserve (AVR), based upon a formula prescribed by the NAIC, is established as a liability to offset potential noninterest related investment losses, and changes in the AVR are charged or credited directly to surplus under statutory accounting practices; no such reserve is allowed under GAAP. Investments in bonds and preferred stocks are generally carried at amortized cost under statutory accounting practices; under GAAP, investments in bonds and preferred stocks, other than those classified as held to maturity, are carried at estimated fair value. Certain assets, principally deferred income taxes and furniture and equipment, are designated as non admitted and excluded from assets by a direct charge to surplus under statutory accounting practices; under GAAP, such assets are carried on the statement of financial condition with appropriate valuation allowances. 71 Pacific Life & Annuity Company NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS-STATUTORY BASIS 1. ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued) In 1998, the NAIC adopted the Codification of Statutory Accounting Principles (Codification). Codification, which is intended to standardize regulatory accounting and reporting to state insurance departments, is effective January 1, 2001. However, statutory accounting principles will continue to be established by individual state laws and permitted practices. The Insurance Department of the State of Arizona is requiring adoption of Codification for the preparation of statutory financial statements effective January 1, 2001. The impact of adopting Codification will be reported as an adjustment to statutory surplus on the effective date. PL&A has not yet finalized the effects of adopting Codification, but anticipates that there will not be any adverse effect on statutory surplus. PL&A's significant statutory accounting practices are described below. INVESTMENTS Bonds qualifying for amortization are carried at amortized cost; all other bonds are carried at prescribed values. Preferred stocks are principally stated at amortized cost. Common stocks are carried at market value. The cost of bonds, and preferred and common stocks is adjusted for impairments in value deemed to be other than temporary. Mortgage loans are stated at unpaid principal balances. Short-term investments are carried at amortized cost which approximates estimated fair value. Short-term investments generally consist of bonds, commercial paper and money market instruments whose maturities at the time of acquisition were one year or less. Other invested assets, which consist principally of joint venture and partnership interests, are primarily accounted for using the equity method. The AVR is computed in accordance with a prescribed formula and is designed to stabilize surplus against valuation and credit-related losses for certain invested assets. Changes to the AVR are reported as direct additions to, or deductions from, unassigned surplus. The IMR results in the deferral of after-tax realized capital gains and losses attributable to interest rate fluctuations on fixed income investments. These capital gains and losses are amortized into net investment income over the remaining life of the investment sold. The IMR of $1.8 million and $1.2 million as of December 31, 2000 and 1999, respectively, is included in other liabilities. Net realized capital gains and losses are determined on the specific identification method and are presented net of Federal capital gains tax and transfers to the IMR. Derivatives that qualify for hedge accounting are valued consistently with the hedged items. Realized hedged gains and losses on fixed income contracts are deferred and amortized over the average life of the related hedged assets or insurance liabilities. Derivatives that do not qualify for hedge accounting are valued at market value through surplus while still held and when realized through income. POLICY RESERVES AND DEPOSIT FUNDS Medical expense claim reserves are based on PL&A's actual loss experience. Group life insurance reserves, including premium waivers, are based on various tabular methods and actual loss experience. Disabled life reserves are determined using various tabular reserve methods. Reserves for variable life insurance and individual annuities are maintained principally on the Commissioners' Reserve Valuation Method. 72 Pacific Life & Annuity Company NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS-STATUTORY BASIS 1. ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued) The liability for deposit funds, including guaranteed interest contracts, is based primarily upon, and is not less than, the policyholders' equity in their deposit accounts, including credited interest. REVENUES, BENEFITS AND EXPENSES Premiums are recognized as revenue over the premium paying period. Deposits made in connection with annuity contracts are recognized as revenue when received. Investment income is recorded as earned. Expenses, including policy acquisition costs and Federal income taxes, are charged to operations as incurred. FEDERAL INCOME TAXES PL&A's operations are included in the consolidated Federal income tax return of Pacific Mutual Holding Company, PL&A's ultimate parent. PL&A is allocated an income tax expense based on the effect of including its operations in the consolidated return. Deferred taxes are provided for as permitted by the Insurance Department of the State of Arizona. The net deferred tax asset is non admitted. This practice has no effect on total surplus. OTHER SURPLUS TRANSACTIONS Other surplus transactions primarily consist of unrealized capital gains and losses, changes in non admitted assets and change in the AVR. SEPARATE ACCOUNTS Separate account assets are recorded at market value and the related liabilities represent segregated contract owner funds maintained in accounts with individual investment objectives. The operating results of separate account assets pass through to separate account policyholders and contract owners. ESTIMATED FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS The estimated fair value of financial instruments disclosed in Notes 2 and 3 has been determined using available market information and appropriate valuation methodologies. However, considerable judgment is required to interpret market data to develop the estimates of fair value. Accordingly, the estimates presented may not be indicative of the amounts PL&A could realize in a current market exchange. The use of different market assumptions and/or estimation methodologies could have a significant effect on the estimated fair value amounts. RISK-BASED CAPITAL Risk-based capital is a method developed by the NAIC to measure the minimum amount of capital appropriate for an insurance company to support its overall business operations in consideration of its size and risk profile. The formulas for determining the amount of risk-based capital specify various weighting factors that are applied to financial balances or various levels of activity based on the perceived degree of risk. The adequacy of a company's actual capital is measured by the risk-based capital results as determined by the formulas. Companies below minimum risk-based capital requirements are classified within certain levels, each of which requires specified corrective action. As of December 31, 2000 and 1999, PL&A exceeded the minimum risk-based capital requirements. BUSINESS RISKS PL&A operates in a business environment which is subject to various risks and uncertainties. PL&A's group health insurance is subject to varying levels of regulation. The United States Congress has, from time to time, considered various health care proposals and several states have enacted health care reform legislation. Although 73 Pacific Life & Annuity Company NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS-STATUTORY BASIS 1. ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued) it is not possible to predict what changes may be adopted at the state or Federal level, certain changes could have a negative impact upon the group health business of PL&A. USE OF ESTIMATES The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting practices prescribed or permitted by regulatory authorities requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of admitted assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. RECLASSIFICATIONS Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the 2000 financial statement presentation. 2. INVESTMENTS IN DEBT AND EQUITY SECURITIES The amortized cost, gross unrealized gains and losses, and estimated fair value of debt and equity securities are shown below. Debt securities include bonds, redeemable preferred stocks and short-term investments. Equity securities include perpetual preferred stocks and common stocks. The estimated fair value of publicly traded securities is based on quoted market prices. For securities not actively traded, estimated fair values were provided by independent pricing services specializing in matrix pricing and modeling techniques. PL&A also estimates certain fair values based on interest rates, credit quality and average maturity, or from securities with comparable trading characteristics.

INVESTMENTS IN DEBT AND EQUITY SECURITIES (Continued) The amortized cost and estimated fair value of debt securities as of December 31, 2000, by contractual repayment date of principal, are shown below. Expected maturities may differ from contractual maturities because borrowers may have the right to call or prepay obligations with or without call or prepayment penalties.

Proceeds from sales of investments in debt securities were $13.1 million and $23.3 million for the years ended December 31, 2000 and 1999, respectively. Gross gains of $1.1 million and $0.1 million and gross losses of $0.1 million and $0.9 million were realized on those sales for the years ended December 31, 2000 and 1999, respectively. 3. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS The estimated fair values of PL&A's financial instruments, including debt and equity securities (Note 2), are as follows:
December 31, 2000 December 31, 1999 ----------------- ----------------- Statement Estimated Statement Estimated Value Fair Value Value Fair Value ------------------------------------------ (In Thousands) Assets: Debt securities $354,379 $357,027 $321,873 $319,055 Equity securities 11,536 11,547 8,388 8,388 Mortgage loans 15,004 16,152 15,409 17,131 Financial futures contracts (1,110) Foreign currency derivatives (129) 7 Liabilities: Guaranteed interest contracts 20,314 20,314 Deposit liabilities 3,213 3,213 6,300 6,300
The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair value of these financial instruments as of December 31, 2000 and 1999: MORTGAGE LOANS The estimated fair value of the mortgage loan portfolio is determined by discounting the estimated future cash flows, using a year-end market rate which is applicable to the yield, credit quality and average maturity of the composite portfolio. 75 Pacific Life & Annuity Company NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS-STATUTORY BASIS 3. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS (Continued) GUARANTEED INTEREST CONTRACTS AND DEPOSIT LIABILITIES The estimated fair value of fixed maturity guaranteed interest contracts is estimated using the rates currently offered for deposits of similar remaining maturities. The estimated fair value of deposit liabilities with no defined maturities is the amount payable on demand. FINANCIAL FUTURES CONTRACTS PL&A uses exchange-traded financial futures contracts to hedge cash flow timing differences between assets and liabilities and overall portfolio duration. Assets and liabilities are rarely acquired or sold at the same time, which creates a need to hedge their change in value during the unmatched period. In addition, foreign currency futures may be used to hedge foreign currency risk on non-U.S. dollar denominated securities. Financial futures contracts obligate the holder to buy or sell the underlying financial instrument at a specified future date for a set price and may be settled in cash or by delivery of the financial instrument. Price changes on futures are settled daily through the required margin cash flows. The notional amounts of the contracts do not represent future cash requirements, as PL&A intends to close out open positions prior to expiration. FOREIGN CURRENCY DERIVATIVES PL&A enters into foreign exchange forward contracts to hedge against fluctuations in foreign currency exposure. Foreign currency derivatives involve the exchange of foreign currency denominated payments for U.S. dollar denominated payments. Gains and losses on foreign exchange forward contracts offset losses and gains, respectively, on the related foreign currency denominated assets. Foreign currency derivatives expire during the year 2001. 4. LIABILITY FOR GROUP HEALTH UNPAID CLAIMS AND CLAIM ADJUSTMENT EXPENSES Activity in the liability for group health unpaid claims and claim adjustment expenses, which is included in both policy reserves and policy benefits payable, is summarized as follows:

76 Pacific Life & Annuity Company NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS-STATUTORY BASIS 4. LIABILITY FOR GROUP HEALTH UNPAID CLAIMS AND CLAIM ADJUSTMENT EXPENSES (Continued) As a result of favorable settlement of prior years' estimated claims, the provision for claims and claim adjustment expenses decreased by $27.8 million and $33.3 million for the years ended December 31, 2000 and 1999, respectively. 5. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS Pacific Life provides services of certain management and other personnel, and other support services to PL&A. Services provided include employee participation in certain benefit plans provided by Pacific Life (Note 6). Charges for these services amounted to $12.9 million and $11.9 million for the years ended December 31, 2000 and 1999, respectively, and are included in operating expenses. Under a reinsurance and service agreement, which terminated on January 1, 1999, PL&A assumed substantially all of Pacific Life's group life and health insurance. Premiums of ($0.6) million and $0.4 million and benefits of $1.4 million and ($0.7) million were assumed for the years ended December 31, 2000 and 1999, respectively. Amounts payable under this agreement were $0.4 million and $1.3 million as of December 31, 2000 and 1999, respectively. Effective January 1, 1999, PL&A began to provide underwriting and administrative services for this business under an administrative services agreement. Fees earned amounted to $10.7 million and $10.2 million for the years ended December 31, 2000 and 1999, respectively, and are included as an offset to operating expenses. 6. EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLANS PL&A permits eligible employees to participate in a retirement plan provided by Pacific Life. PL&A permits certain employees to defer a portion of cash compensation under a deferred compensation plan provided by Pacific Life. Interest accrued to this plan amounted to $0.4 million for the years ended December 31, 2000 and 1999. PL&A participates in a defined benefit health care plan and a defined benefit life insurance plan (the Plans) provided by Pacific Life. The Plans provide postretirement benefits for all eligible retirees and their dependents. Generally, qualified employees may become eligible for these benefits if they reach normal retirement age, have been covered under Pacific Life's policy as an active employee for a minimum continuous period prior to the date retired, and have an employment date before January 1, 1990. The Plans contain cost-sharing features such as deductibles and coinsurance, and require retirees to make contributions which can be adjusted annually. Pacific Life's commitment to qualified employees who retire after April 1, 1994 is limited to specific dollar amounts. Pacific Life reserves the right to modify or terminate the Plans at any time. Pacific Life and PL&A utilize the accrual method of accounting for the costs of the Plans as prescribed by the Insurance Departments of the States of California and Arizona, respectively. PL&A has elected to amortize the transition obligation, which was allocated from Pacific Life, of $3.7 million over 20 years. The transition obligation amortization amounted to $0.2 million for each of the years ended December 31, 2000 and 1999. The postretirement obligation included in other liabilities reflects the amortized balance less reductions due to payouts under the Plans. The balance as of December 31, 2000 and 1999 is $1.1 million and $1.0 million, respectively. 7. DIVIDEND RESTRICTIONS Dividend payments by PL&A to its parent cannot exceed the lesser of 10% of surplus as of the preceding year-end, as regards to policyholders, or the statutory net gain from operations for the previous calendar year, without prior approval from the Insurance Commissioner of the State of Arizona. No dividends were paid during 2000 and 1999. During 2001, PL&A can pay dividends amounting to approximately $22.3 million without prior approval from the Insurance Commissioner of the State of Arizona. 77 Pacific Life & Annuity Company NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS-STATUTORY BASIS 8. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES PL&A has outstanding commitments to make investments in bonds, mortgage loans and other invested assets as follows (In Thousands):

PL&A is a respondent in a number of legal proceedings, some of which involve extra-contractual damages. In the opinion of management, the outcome of these proceedings is not likely to have a material adverse effect on the financial position or results of operations of PL&A. - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 78 APPENDIX A - JOINT EQUAL AGE --------------------------------------------------------- An example Joint equal age is a calculation that combines the ages This example and insurance risks of two people insured by a policy. assumes a male It changes many possible combinations of ages, risk smoker who is age classes, and genders for the two people insured by the 65 and a female policy into a two life status.

REPRESENTATION PURSUANT TO SECTION 26(e) OF THE INVESTMENT COMPANY ACT OF 1940 Pacific Life & Annuity Company, the sponsoring insurance company of the Registrant, represents that the fees and charges to be deducted under the variable Life Insurance Policy ("Policy") described in the prospectus contained in this registration statement are, in the aggregate, reasonable in relation to the services rendered, the expenses expected to be incurred, and the risks assumed in connection with the Policy. RULE 6e-3(T) REPRESENTATION This filing is made pursuant to Rule 6e-3(T) and Rule 6c-3 under the Investment Company Act of 1940. RULE 484 UNDERTAKING Pacific Life & Annuity Company's Articles of Incorporation provide in Article IX for indemnification of directors, officers and employees of the Company. Insofar as indemnification for liability arising under the Securities Act of 1933 (the "Act") may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the Registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the Registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the Registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the Registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the Registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.

If there are two or more Owners, they will own this contract as joint tenants with right of survivorship. Assignment - You may assign this policy by Written Request. An assignment will take place only when recorded at our Home Office. When received, the assignment will take effect as of the date the Written Request was signed. Any rights created by the assignment will be subject to any payments made or actions taken by us before the change is recorded. We will not be responsible for the validity of any assignment. Beneficiary - The beneficiary is named by you in the application to receive the death benefit proceeds. The beneficiary may be one or more persons. If the beneficiary is more than one person, they will share the death benefit proceeds equally or as otherwise specified by you in a Written Request. The interest of any beneficiary will be subject to any assignment. If you have named a contingent beneficiary, that person becomes the beneficiary if the beneficiary dies before the Survivor. A beneficiary may not, at or after the Survivor's death, assign, transfer or encumber any benefit payable. To the extent allowed by law, policy benefits will not be subject to the claims of any creditor of any beneficiary. You may make a change of beneficiary by Written Request on a form provided by us while at least one Insured is living. The change will take place as of the date the request is signed, subject to our receipt of the request. Any rights created by the change will be subject to any payments made or actions taken by us before the Written Request is received. You may designate a permanent beneficiary whose rights under the policy cannot be changed without his or her written consent. The interest of a beneficiary who does not survive to receive payment will pass to the surviving beneficiaries in proportion to their share in the proceeds, unless otherwise provided. If no beneficiaries survive to receive payment, the death proceeds will pass to the Owner, or the Owner's estate if the Owner does not survive to receive payment. PREMIUMS Premiums - This policy will not be in force until the initial premium is paid. The initial premium is payable either at our Home Office or to our agent. Additional premiums, if any, are payable in advance at our Home Office. At your request, a premium receipt signed by one of our officers will be given to you. No premium may be less than $50. Premiums may be paid at any time, subject to the premium limitations below. The Planned Premium is the amount identified in the application, or later changed by Written Request, which you plan to pay. Payment of the Planned Premium does not guarantee that the policy will continue in force. The amount of Planned Premium at policy issue is shown on Page 3.0. Premium Allocation Before the Free Look Transfer Date - Any Net Premium received before the Free Look Transfer Date will be allocated to the Money Market Variable Account on the issue date or, if later, P0156-NY Page 6 (P) the date the premium is received and accepted by us. On the Free Look Transfer Date, the Accumulated Value in the Money Market Variable Account will be allocated to the Investment Options according to the premium allocation specified in the application or your most recent instructions received by us, if any. Premium Allocation On or After the Free Look Transfer Date - Any Net Premium received by us on or after the Free Look Transfer Date will be allocated to the Investment Options according to the premium allocation specified in the application or your most recent instructions received by us, if any. Upon Written Request, you may change the premium allocation. Subsequently, Net Premiums will be allocated to the Investment Options according to your most recent instructions. Premium Limitation - We reserve the right to require Evidence of Insurability, satisfactory to us, for any premium payment that would result in an immediate increase in the difference between the death benefit and the Accumulated Value. Guideline Premium Limitation - For this policy to be treated as life insurance under the Code, the sum of premiums paid less a portion of any withdrawals, as defined in the Code, may not exceed the greater of: . The Guideline Single Premium; or . The sum of the Guideline Level Premiums to date. The amounts of the Guideline Premiums are shown on the Policy Specification pages. The Guideline Premiums may change whenever there is a change to the policy or riders. In such case, the new Guideline Premium will be shown in the supplemental schedule of benefits and premiums we will send to you at the time of the change. See the Tax Qualification as Life Insurance subsection of the General Provisions section for details. Also, see the Tax Qualification as Life Insurance and MEC Status subsections of the General Provisions section to see how premium payments can affect the federal tax treatment of your policy. DEATH BENEFIT Death Benefit - This policy provides a death benefit on the death of the Survivor as long as the policy continues in force. The death benefit, Death Benefit Option and the Guideline Premium Test are described in this section. Before the younger Insured reaches Age 100 (or would have attained Age 100 had the younger Insured survived), the death benefit is calculated as the larger of: . The Minimum Death Benefit calculated under the Guideline Premium Test; or . The death benefit as calculated under the Death Benefit Option in effect. Beginning on the younger Insured's Age 100 (or would have attained Age 100 had the younger Insured survived), the death benefit is equal to the Accumulated Value. Guideline Premium Test - The Minimum Death Benefit at any time is the Accumulated Value multiplied by the death benefit percentage shown in the following table, based on the Age of the younger Insured:
Death Benefit Death Benefit Death Benefit Death Benefit Age Percentage Age Percentage Age Percentage Age Percentage 0-40 250% 50 185% 60 130% 70 115% 41 243 51 178 61 128 71 113 42 236 52 171 62 126 72 111 43 229 53 164 63 124 73 109 44 222 54 157 64 122 74 107 45 215 55 150 65 120 75-90 105 46 209 56 146 66 119 91 104 47 203 57 142 67 118 92 103 48 197 58 138 68 117 93 102 49 191 59 134 69 116 Over 93 101
P0156-NY Page 7 (P) Death Benefit Options - You have elected the Death Benefit Option in the application. The Death Benefit Option for this policy appears in the Policy Specifications. The Death Benefit Options are explained below. . Option A - The death benefit equals the Face Amount. . Option B - The death benefit equals the Face Amount plus the Accumulated Value at death. . Option C - The death benefit is the Face Amount plus the sum of the premiums paid minus the sum of any withdrawals taken and any other distribution of the Accumulated Value to the date of death. If the sum of the withdrawals is greater than the sum of the premiums paid, then the death benefit will be less than the Face Amount. . Option D - The death benefit equals the Face Amount times the death benefit factor for the current policy year. If you have elected Option D, the death benefit factors are shown on the Policy Specifications pages. The Death Benefit Option may be changed to Option A or B upon Written Request a maximum of once per year. Changes to Option C or D are not permitted. After any such change, the Face Amount will be that which results in the death benefit after the change being equal to the death benefit before the change. For this purpose, death benefit is the amount calculated under the Death Benefit Options, disregarding the Minimum Death Benefit. The change will be effective on the Monthly Payment Date on or next following the day we receive your Written Request at our Home Office. Death Benefit Proceeds - The death benefit proceeds are the actual amount payable if the Survivor dies while this policy is in force. The death benefit proceeds are equal to the death benefit, as of the date of the Survivor's death, less any Policy Debt and less any due and unpaid monthly deductions occurring during a grace period. We will pay the death benefit proceeds to the beneficiary after we receive, at our Home Office, due proof of the Insureds deaths (certified copies of the death certificates or, if unavailable, other legal documentation which we accept) and information sufficient to identify the beneficiary. The death benefit proceeds paid are subject to the conditions and adjustments defined in other policy provisions, such as General Provisions, Withdrawals and Policy Loans. We will pay interest on death benefit proceeds as described in the Timing of Payments and Transfers section. Face Amount Decrease - The Face Amount may not be increased. However, subject to our approval, you may decrease the Face Amount a maximum of one time in any policy year after the first policy year. The effective date of the decreased Face Amount will be the first Monthly Payment Date on or following the date we receive the Written Request. We recommend you consult your tax advisor before requesting a decrease in policy Face Amount. A supplemental schedule of benefits and premiums will be issued. This schedule will include the following information: . the effective date of the decreased Face Amount; . the amount of the decrease and the decreased Face Amount; and . the new Guideline Premiums. The request for a decrease in the face amount will be subject to the Guideline Premiums Limitation as defined in the Internal Revenue Code. This may result in a refund of premiums and/or the distribution of Accumulated Value in order to maintain compliance with such limitations. Such request will not be allowed if the resulting Guideline Premiums could cause an amount in excess of the Net Cash Surrender Value to be distributed from the policy. The Face Amount of this policy may not be decreased to less than our minimum issue limit in effect on the date of the request. Paid-Up Insurance - On each policy anniversary you have the option to use the Net Cash Surrender Value to purchase guaranteed fixed paid-up insurance on the life of the Survivor of the Insureds. At the time of conversion, the Net Cash Surrender Value will be transferred to our general account. The entire Net Cash Surrender Value will be applied as a net single premium to purchase paid-up insurance. The amount of such insurance will be calculated based on 1980 CSO mortality, 3% interest and on the Ages P0156-NY Page 8 (P) and Risk Classifications of the Insureds (or if only the Survivor is alive at the time of the conversion, then on the Age and Risk Classification of the Survivor). If the amount of paid-up insurance so determined would exceed the death benefit of the policy immediately prior to purchase of the paid-up insurance, we will apply only a portion of the Net Cash Surrender Value to purchase paid-up insurance, and the remainder will be paid to you. In this case, we will determine the amount of paid-up insurance so that the paid-up insurance plus the Net Cash Surrender Value paid to you will equal the policy's death benefit immediately prior to the purchase of the paid-up insurance. This policy and any riders attached to it will terminate at the time of conversion. Such paid-up insurance may be surrendered at any time, with the cash surrender value being determined on the same basis. Change in Benefits - Under the Guideline Premium Test, any change in policy or rider benefits will require an adjustment to the guideline premium limitation. See the Tax Qualification as Life Insurance subsection of the General Provisions section for details. ACCUMULATED VALUE Accumulated Value (AV) - is the sum of the Fixed Accumulated Value plus the Variable Accumulated Value plus the Loan Account and any interest credited to it. Fixed Accumulated Value - The Fixed Accumulated Value is the sum of the Accumulated Value in each Fixed Option as of the last Valuation Period. This subsection describes how we calculate the Accumulated Value in each Fixed Option. We credit interest on a daily basis using a 365-day year and at a rate not less than an annual effective rate of 3% in the first 10 policy years, 3.60% in policy years 11-20, and 3.85% thereafter. At our discretion, we may credit a higher rate of interest. The interest rate in effect at the beginning of the policy year will be effective for the duration of that year. Once credited, interest is nonforfeitable, except indirectly due to any applicable Surrender Charge. The Accumulated Value for each Fixed Option on any date is the following, including interest on each: . the Accumulated Value for the Fixed Option on the prior Monthly Payment Date; . plus the amount of any Net Premium received and allocated to the Fixed Option since the last Monthly Payment Date; . plus the amount of any transfer to the Fixed Option, including transfers from the Loan Account, since the last Monthly Payment Date; . minus the monthly deduction and other deductions due, if any, and assessed against the Fixed Option; and . minus the amount of any withdrawals, or transfers from the Fixed Option, including transfers to the Loan Account, since the last Monthly Payment Date. Variable Accumulated Value - The Variable Accumulated Value is the sum of your policy's Accumulated Value in each Variable Account. This subsection describes how we calculate your policy's Accumulated Value in each Variable Account. Assets in each Variable Account are divided into Accumulation Units, which are a measure of value used for bookkeeping purposes. We credit your policy with Accumulation Units in each Variable Account as a result of: . the amount of any Net Premium received and allocated to the Variable Account; and . transfers of Accumulated Value to the Variable Account, including transfers from the Loan Account. We debit Accumulation Units in each Variable Account as a result of: . transfers from the Variable Account, including transfers to the Loan Account; . Surrenders and withdrawals from the Variable Account; and . the monthly deduction and other deductions due, if any, and assessed against the Variable Account. P0156-NY Page 9 (P) To determine the number of Accumulation Units debited or credited for a transaction, we divide the dollar amount of the transaction by the Unit Value of the affected Variable Account. To determine your policy's Accumulated Value in each Variable Account, we multiply the number of Accumulation Units in the Variable Account by the Unit Value of the Variable Account. The number of Accumulation Units in each Variable Account will not change because of subsequent changes in Unit Value. At the inception of each Variable Account the Unit Value was $10. The Unit Value of each Variable Account is adjusted on each Valuation Date. To calculate the Unit Value of a Variable Account on any Valuation Date, we multiply the Unit Value from the previous Valuation Date by the Net Investment Factor. The Net Investment Factor for a Variable Account on any Valuation Date is (a) minus (b), divided by (c), where: (a) is the Net Asset Value of the Variable Account as of the close of the business day, excluding the impact of any policy transactions since the prior Valuation Date; (b) is the value of charges assessed by us since the prior Valuation Date for taxes attributable to the operation of the Variable Account; and (c) is the Net Asset Value of the Variable Account as of the close of the previous Valuation Date. The Net Asset Value of a Variable Account on any Valuation Date is the Net Asset Value per share for the Variable Account on the Valuation Date multiplied by the number of shares in the Variable Account on the Valuation Date. For each Variable Account, the Net Asset Value per share and the number of shares outstanding are reported to us each Valuation Date by the investment company in whose shares the Variable Account is invested. Loan Account - The Loan Account is the amount set aside to secure Policy Debt. The amount in the Loan Account on any date is the following, including interest on each: . the amount in the Loan Account on the prior anniversary; . plus any loan taken since the prior anniversary; and . minus any loan amount repaid since the prior anniversary. We will credit interest to the Loan Account on a daily basis using a 365-day year and at a rate equivalent to an annual effective rate of 3.00% in the first 10 policy years, 3.60% in policy years 11-20, and 3.85% thereafter. On each policy anniversary, any interest earned and held in the Loan Account will be transferred to the Investment Options in accordance with your most recent premium allocation instructions. Monthly Deduction - A Monthly Deduction for a policy month is due on each Monthly Payment Date and is equal to the sum of the following items: . the monthly Cost of Insurance Charge; . the M&E Risk Charge; . the Administrative Charge, if any; and . rider charges, if any. Unless you have made a Written Request to the contrary, the Monthly Deduction will be charged proportionately to the Accumulated Value in each Variable Account and each Fixed Option on the Monthly Payment Date. Cost of Insurance Charge - Beginning on the Policy Date and monthly thereafter, there will be a monthly Cost of Insurance Charge for the death benefit payable under this policy equal to (1) multiplied by (2), where: (1) is the applicable monthly Cost of Insurance Rate; and (2) is the Net Amount at Risk. P0156-NY Page 10 (P) Cost of Insurance Rates - The Cost of Insurance Rates are based on a number of factors, including the Insureds' Ages, Risk Classifications, and the policy duration. Part of the cost is intended to recover acquisition expenses at issue. Such expense recoveries are greater in the early policy years. The current monthly Cost of Insurance Rates will be determined by us. These rates will not exceed the Guaranteed Maximum Monthly Cost of Insurance Rates shown in the Policy Specifications. Guaranteed Maximum Cost of Insurance rates are based on the 1980 Commissioners' Standard Ordinary Mortality Table. Change in Policy Cost Factors - Any change in policy cost factors, including credited interest on the Fixed Options, cost of insurance rates, risk and expense charges and loads, will be by class and based on changes in our expectations of future investment earnings, mortality, persistency and expenses. Class is determined by a number of factors, including the two Insureds' Ages, Risk Classifications, Policy Date, and policy duration. Any such change will be determined in accordance with procedures and standards on file with the Insurance Department of the state of New York. Cost of insurance rates and other expense factors will be reviewed no more frequently than annually and no less frequently than once every five years to determine whether an adjustment is necessary. Interest to be credited to the Fixed Options will be reviewed at least annually to determine whether an adjustment is necessary. M&E Risk Charge - The Mortality and Expense Risk Charge (M&E Risk Charge) is to compensate us for the risk we assume that mortality, expenses and other costs of providing your policy will be greater than estimated. Beginning on the Policy Date and monthly thereafter, the M&E Risk Charge will be the sum of the M&E Risk Asset Charge and the M&E Risk Face Amount Charge. The M&E Risk Asset Charge is a percentage of the Variable Accumulated Value. In the first 10 policy years, the charge is 0.075% (0.90% annually). During policy years 11 through 20, the charge is 0.025% (0.30% annually). For policy years after the 20th, the charge is .0042% (0.05% annually). The percentages are also shown in the Policy Specifications. The M&E Risk Face Amount Charge is the amount shown in the Policy Specifications, and is based on the Face Amount at policy issue. Administrative Charge - Beginning on the Policy Date and monthly thereafter, there will be an Administrative Charge against the Accumulated Value. The amount of this charge will equal the amount shown in the Policy Specifications. Premium Load - A Premium Load will be charged each time that a premium is paid to cover certain local, state and federal tax and certain sales and distribution costs. The Premium Load will equal the premium paid multiplied by the Premium Load rate shown in the Policy Specifications. The Premium Load associated with each premium will be immediately deducted from the premium paid. We reserve the right to increase the Premium Load with respect to the charge for local, state and federal tax. We will only increase the Premium Load if the effective tax paid by us increases and only if any such increase is first approved by the Insurance Department of the state of New York. We will notify you of any such change. Other Taxes - In addition to the charges imposed under Premium Load and elsewhere, we reserve the right to make a charge for federal, state or local taxes that may be attributable to the Variable Accounts or to our operations with respect to this policy if we incur any such taxes, but only if any such charge is first approved by the Insurance Department of the state of New York. Grace Period and Lapse - If the Accumulated Value less Policy Debt on a Monthly Payment Date is not sufficient to cover the current monthly deduction, a grace period of 61 days will be allowed for the payment of sufficient premium to keep your policy in force. The grace period begins on the Monthly Payment Date on which the insufficiency occurred and ends 61 days thereafter. At the start of the grace period, we will send notice to you at your last known address and to any assignee of record. The notice will state the due date and the amount of premium required for P0156-NY Page 11 (P) your policy to remain in force. A minimum of three times the monthly deduction due when the insufficiency occurred, plus Premium Load, must be paid. Premiums we receive during the grace period P0156-NY Page 12 (P) will be applied to your policy according to your most recent premium allocation instructions. There is no penalty for paying a premium during the grace period. Your policy will remain in force during the grace period. If sufficient premium is not paid by the end of the grace period, a lapse will occur. Thirty-one days prior to lapse, we will send you and any assignee of record a notice containing the lapse date and the required premium to keep your policy in force. If the Survivor dies during the grace period, the death benefit proceeds will be reduced by any overdue charges. Upon lapse, the policy will terminate with no value. Reinstatement - If it has not been surrendered, this policy may be reinstated not more than five years after the end of the grace period. To reinstate this policy you must provide us with the following: . a written application; . Evidence of Insurability satisfactory to us for each Insured who was alive on the date of lapse; . payment of sufficient premium to cover all monthly deductions that were due and unpaid during the grace period; plus . payment of sufficient premium to keep the policy in force for three months after the date of reinstatement. The effective date of the reinstated policy will be the first Monthly Payment Date on or following the date we approve your reinstatement application. When this policy is reinstated, the Accumulated Value will be equal to the Accumulated Value on the date of lapse subject to the following. If the policy is reinstated after the first Monthly Payment Date following lapse, the Accumulated Value will be reduced by the amount of any Policy Debt on the date of lapse and the Policy Debt will be extinguished. If the policy is reinstated on the first Monthly Payment Date following lapse, any Policy Debt on the date of lapse will also be reinstated. At reinstatement, the surrender charge will be that in effect at the beginning of the grace period, and will then decrease each policy month thereafter according to the successive month-by-month surrender charges shown in the Policy Specifications pages. TRANSFERS Transfers - After your initial Net Premium has been allocated according to your instructions and while your policy is in force, you may, upon Written Request, transfer your Accumulated Value, or a part of it, among the Investment Options as provided in this section. No transfer may be made if the policy is in a grace period and the required premium has not been paid. Transfers from the Fixed Account: One transfer from the Fixed Account may be made in any twelve-month period. Each transfer from the Fixed Account will be limited to the greater of $5,000 or 25% of the Accumulated Value in the Fixed Account. Transfers from the Fixed LT Account: One transfer from the Fixed LT Account may be made in any twelve month period. Each transfer from the Fixed LT Account will be limited to the greater of $5,000 or 10% of the Accumulated Value in the Fixed LT Account. Transfers into the Fixed Account: If you have transferred out of either Fixed Option within the last 90 days, you cannot transfer into the Fixed Account, except that during the first 18 policy months transfers into the Fixed Account are unlimited (see below), Transfers into the Fixed LT Account: Transfers into the Fixed LT Account can be made only during the policy month prior to a policy anniversary. Allocations into the Fixed LT Account: We reserve the right to limit the amount allocated to the Fixed LT Account to $1,000,000 during the most recent 12 months for all policies owned by you. Allocations include Net Premium payments, transfers and loan repayments. Any excess over $1,000,000 will be transferred to your other Investment Options relative to your most recent instructions. We may increase the $1,000,000 limit at any time at our sole discretion. You may contact us to find out if a higher limit is in effect. P0156-NY Page 13 (P) Transfer into the Fixed Account Unlimited Under Special Circumstances: You may transfer from any Variable Account to the Fixed Account with no limitation under the following circumstances: . For a period of time, as described below, after a material change in the investment policy of that Variable Account; and . During the first 18 policy months. We will notify you if there is a material change in the investment policy of a Variable Account. The notice will inform you of your options, including your option to transfer from such Variable Account to the Fixed Account within 60 days after (i) the effective date of the material change or (ii) the date you receive the notice, whichever is later. No charges are currently imposed for transfers. We reserve the right: . to limit the size of transfers so that each transfer is at least $500; . to limit the frequency of transfers (however, at least one transfer per quarter will be allowed); . to disallow a transfer from any account if the balance would be a non-zero amount less than $500; . to assess a $25 charge for each transfer exceeding 12 per policy year. Automatic Transfer Programs - Dollar Cost Averaging, the First Year Transfer Program and Automatic Portfolio Rebalancing, as described below, are optional programs available under this policy. No more than one of these may be in effect at any one time. Transfers pursuant to these programs will occur on Monthly Payment Dates or the next succeeding business day if the Monthly Payment Date falls on a non-business day. Automatic transfers will not take place before the end of the Free Look Period or during the Grace Period. We must receive your Written Request in order for these programs to begin. Except as noted below, these programs may be elected at any time. These programs neither guarantee investment gains nor protection from investment losses. Transfers under these programs do not count toward the limitations on the number of transfers, nor of free transfers, allowed per policy year. We reserve the right to modify the terms and conditions of these programs, upon 30 days advance notice to you. Dollar Cost Averaging - Under this program, automatic transfers from any one Variable Account of a percentage or a fixed dollar amount will be made to any combination of other Variable Accounts on a monthly, quarterly, semi-annual, or annual basis. You may elect Dollar Cost Averaging at any time by sending us a Written Request. Your policy's Accumulated Value in the Variable Account from which the transfer is made must be at least $5,000 at the time the first transfer is to be made. Automatic transfers will continue until you give us a Written Request to stop, or until your policy's Accumulated Value in the Variable Account from which the transfers are made has been depleted. First Year Transfer Program - This program is identical to Dollar Cost Averaging, with the differences described in this subsection. Transfers are made from the Fixed Account and occur in the 12 policy months following the policy month when the Free Look Period ends. Transfers may be made to the Fixed LT Account as well as to the Variable Accounts. Transfers are for the dollar amount in your Written Request. For this program, we waive the limitation that no more than the greater of $5,000 or 25% of the Fixed Account can be transferred out of the Fixed Account in a policy year. Automatic Portfolio Rebalancing - Under this program, we automatically transfer on a quarterly, semi-annual, or annual basis, your policy's Accumulated Value among the Variable Accounts to re-establish the portfolio allocation that you specify in your Written Request. With your Written Request, you may change the portfolio balance that will be used for the rebalancing. Automatic Portfolio Rebalancing will continue until you make a Written Request to cancel the program. If you cancel the program, you must wait 30 days to begin it again. SURRENDER AND WITHDRAWAL OF VALUES Surrender - Upon Written Request while either Insured is living you may surrender this policy for its Net Cash Surrender Value. The policy will terminate on the date the request is received. P0156-NY Page 14 (P) Net Cash Surrender Value - The Net Cash Surrender Value is the Cash Surrender Value less any Policy Debt. Cash Surrender Value - The Cash Surrender Value is the Accumulated Value less any Surrender Charge. Surrender Charge - If you surrender your policy, a Surrender Charge will be deducted from the AV. The Surrender Charge is needed to help pay for costs such as underwriting, policy issue and sales and distribution costs. The total Surrender Charge is equal to the sum of the Underwriting Surrender Charge and the Sales Surrender Charge. The Underwriting Surrender Charge is shown on the Policy Specifications. It remains level for the first policy year and then decreases by 0.9259% per month to zero at the 120th month. The Sales Surrender Charge is equal to 70% of the premiums paid up to the Sales Surrender Target. The Sales Surrender Target is shown on the Policy Specifications. The Sales Surrender Charge increases as premiums are paid until the Sales Surrender Target is reached. After the first policy year, the Sales Surrender Charge, as calculated above, is adjusted by multiplying by a reduction factor. This reduction factor is equal to 99.0741% in the 13th month and reduces by .9259% per month to zero at the 120th month. Surrender Charge on Face Amount Decrease - If you request to decrease the Face Amount, a Surrender Charge will be deducted from the AV. The Surrender Charge in such case will equal the Surrender Charge that would be imposed if you were to surrender your policy at the time of the Withdrawal multiplied by the ratio of the Face Amount after the Withdrawal divided by the Face Amount before the Withdrawal. Withdrawals - Upon Written Request on or after the first policy anniversary while either Insured is living, you may withdraw a portion of the Net Cash Surrender Value of this policy. We will deduct a withdrawal fee of $25 from the Accumulated Value for each withdrawal. The withdrawal fee will be deducted from the Investment Options in the same proportion as the withdrawal. There is no Surrender Charge imposed for a Withdrawal, even if the Face Amount is reduced as a result of the Withdrawal. Withdrawals will be subject to the following conditions: The amount of each withdrawal must be at least $500 and the Net Cash Surrender Value remaining after each withdrawal must be at least $500. Also, if there is any Policy Debt at the time of each withdrawal, the amount of the withdrawal is limited to the excess, if any, of the Cash Surrender Value immediately prior to the withdrawal over the result of the Policy Debt divided by 90%. The amount of each withdrawal will be allocated proportionately to the Accumulated Value in the Investment Options unless you request otherwise. If the Survivor dies after the request for a withdrawal is sent to us and prior to the withdrawal being effected, the amount of the withdrawal will be deducted from the death benefit proceeds, which will be determined without taking the withdrawal into account. A withdrawal will affect the death benefit, depending on the Death Benefit Option you have chosen. If your policy's death benefit is greater than the Minimum Death Benefit, then the withdrawal will reduce the death benefit by the amount of the withdrawal. However, if your policy's death benefit is equal to the Minimum Death Benefit, the withdrawal may cause the death benefit to decrease by an amount greater than the amount of the withdrawal. For Death Benefit Option C, if the sum of the withdrawals and other distributions from the policy is greater than the premiums, the death benefit will be less than the Face Amount. Withdrawals may also affect the Face Amount. A withdrawal will reduce the Face Amount, but only for policies having Death Benefit Option A or D. In such case, a withdrawal in excess of the difference between the Minimum Death Benefit and the Face Amount will reduce the Face Amount by the amount of the excess. A withdrawal will never increase the NAR. P0156-NY Page 15 (P) TIMING OF PAYMENTS AND TRANSFERS Variable Accounts - With respect to allocations made to the Variable Accounts, we will pay death benefit proceeds, withdrawals and Net Cash Surrender Value on surrender and withdrawals and will effect a transfer between Variable Accounts or from a Variable Account to a Fixed Option within seven days after we receive all the information needed to process the payment. However, we may postpone the calculation, payment or transfer of any amounts that are based on the investment performance of the Variable Accounts, if: . the New York Stock Exchange is closed on other than normal weekend and holiday closings; or . an emergency exists, as determined by the SEC, as a result of which it is not reasonably practicable to determine the value of the Account assets or to dispose of Account securities. Fixed Options - With respect to payments or transfers to be made from the Fixed Options (or from the policy, if this policy is continued under a fixed non- forfeiture benefit), we may defer such payment or transfer for up to six months after we receive your Written Request. If deferred more than 10 days after we receive such request, we will pay interest at the rate which is the current rate payable on the interest settlement option for income benefits. Policy Loans - We reserve the right to defer any policy loan payment, except for loans used to pay premiums to us, for up to six months after we receive your loan application. Interest on Death Proceeds - We will pay interest on death proceeds from the date of death to the date of payment, at the rate which is the current rate payable on the Interest Settlement Option described under Income Benefits. INCOME BENEFITS Income Benefits - Surrender or withdrawal benefits may be used to buy a lifetime monthly income for either Insured as long as the monthly income is at least $100. Death benefits may be used to buy a monthly income for the lifetime of the beneficiary. The monthly income will automatically be guaranteed to continue for at least ten years, unless another form of payment is requested. Under the automatic form of payment, if the income recipient dies before the end of the ten-year period, payments will continue to the end of the ten-year period to a person designated by the income recipient in writing. The purchase rates for the monthly income will be set periodically by the Company. However, under the automatic form, the monthly income bought by each $1,000 of benefit amount will always be at least as large as that shown below.
Monthly Income Monthly Income Monthly Income Age Male Female Age Male Female Age Male Female 0-30 $3.20 $3.09 46 $3.81 $3.61 62 $5.10 $4.73 32 3.25 3.14 48 3.92 3.71 64 5.35 4.95 34 3.31 3.19 50 4.05 3.81 66 5.62 5.20 36 3.38 3.24 52 4.18 3.93 68 5.92 5.47 38 3.45 3.30 54 4.33 4.06 70 6.23 5.78 40 3.53 3.37 56 4.49 4.20 72 6.56 6.11 42 3.62 3.44 58 4.68 4.36 74 6.90 6.48 44 3.71 3.52 60 4.88 4.54 75+ 7.08 6.67
Monthly income amount for ages not shown are halfway between the two amounts for the nearest two ages that are shown. Amounts shown are based on the Annuity 2000 table with interest at 3.00%. This benefit is not available if the income would be less than $100 a month. We may require evidence of survival for incomes that last more than ten years. P0156-NY Page 16 (P) Other Income Options - Surrender, withdrawal or death benefits may be used under any other payment plans that we make available at that time. We will make an Interest Settlement Option available under which we will credit interest monthly. Amounts left on deposit under this plan, and credited interest, will be accumulated until you request a withdrawal. POLICY LOANS Policy Loans - You may obtain loans by Written Request after the Free Look Period, on the sole security of the Loan Account of this policy. We recommend you consult your tax advisor before requesting a policy loan. Loan Amount Available - The amount available for a loan is equal to 90% of Accumulated Value, less any Policy Debt and also less any Surrender Charges that would be imposed if the policy were surrendered on the date the loan is taken or, if greater, the result of (a x b/c)-d, where: a = the Accumulated Value less 12 times the most recent monthly deduction less any Surrender Charge on the date of the loan; b = 1 + rate of loan interest credited at the time of the loan; c = 1.041; and d = any existing Policy Debt. The amount of a loan must be at least $200. Loan Interest - Interest will accrue daily and is payable in arrears at the annual rate of 4.10%. Interest not paid when due will be added to the loan principal and bear interest at the same rate of interest. Loan Account - When a loan is taken, an amount equal to the loan is transferred out of the Accumulated Value in the Investment Options into the Loan Account to secure the loan. Unless you request otherwise, loan amounts will be deducted from the Variable Accounts and the Fixed Options on a pro rata basis, up to the amount available. We will credit interest to the Loan Account as described in the Accumulated Value section. On each policy anniversary, if the amount in the Loan Account exceeds Policy Debt, the excess will be transferred from the Loan Account to the Investment Options according to your most recent instructions. If Policy Debt exceeds the amount in the Loan Account, an amount equal to such excess will be transferred from the Investment Options on a proportionate basis to the Loan Account. Loan Repayment - Loans may be repaid at any time prior to lapse of this policy. An amount equal to the portion of any loan repaid, but not more than the amount in the Loan Account, will be transferred from the Loan Account to the Investment Options according to your most recent instructions. We reserve the right to first transfer repayments from the Loan Account to each Fixed Option up to the amount that was originally borrowed. Any excess over such amount will be transferred to the Variable Accounts relative to your most recent instructions. Any payment we receive from you while you have a loan will be first considered a loan repayment, unless you tell us in writing it is a premium payment. SEPARATE ACCOUNT PROVISIONS Separate Account - This policy uses the Pacific Select Exec Separate Account owned by Pacific Life & Annuity Company, herein called the "Separate Account". The assets of the Separate Account shall be valued at least as often as any policy benefits vary, but at least monthly. We established the Separate Account and maintain it under the laws and regulations of Arizona and New York. The Separate Account is divided into subaccounts, called Variable Accounts. Income and realized and unrealized gains and losses from the assets of each Variable Account are credited or charged against it without regard to our other income, gains or losses. Assets may be put in our Separate Account to support this policy and P0156-NY Page 17 (P) other variable life policies. Assets may be put in our Separate Account for other purposes, but not to support contracts or policies other than variable life contracts or policies. The assets of our Separate Account are our property. The portion of its assets equal to the reserves and other policy liabilities with respect to our Separate Account will not be chargeable with liabilities arising out of any other business we conduct. We may transfer assets of a Variable Account in excess of the reserves and other liabilities with respect to that Variable Account to another Variable Account or to our general account. All obligations arising under the policy are general corporate obligations of ours. We do not hold ourselves out to be trustees of the Separate Account assets. Variable Accounts - Each Variable Account may invest its assets in a separate class of shares of a designated investment company or companies. The Variable Accounts of our Separate Account that were available for your initial allocations are shown in the Policy Specifications. From time to time, we may make other Variable Accounts available to you. We will provide you with written notice of all material details including investment objectives and all charges. We reserve the right, subject to compliance with the law then in effect, to: . change or add designated investment companies; . add, remove or combine Variable Accounts; . add, delete or make substitutions for the securities that are held or purchased by the Separate Account or any Variable Account; . register or deregister any Variable Account under the Investment Company Act of 1940; . change the classification of any Variable Account; . operate any Variable Account as a managed investment company or as a unit investment trust; . combine the assets of any Variable Account with other separate accounts or subaccounts of ours or our affiliates; . transfer the assets of any Variable Account to other separate accounts or subaccounts of ours or our affiliates; . run any Variable Account under the direction of a committee, board, or other group; . restrict or eliminate any voting rights of policy Owners with respect to any Variable Account, or other persons who have voting rights as to any Variable Account; . change the allocations permitted under the policy; . terminate and liquidate any Variable Account; and . make any other change needed to comply with law. In spite of the above, we will not transfer any investment, or asset held for investment, between separate accounts or between separate and other accounts, provided that the superintendent of the New York Insurance Department may authorize transfers in circumstances where such transfers would not be inequitable. If any of these changes result in a material change in the underlying investment of a Variable Account of our Separate Account, we will notify you of such change. Unless required by law or regulation, an investment policy may not be changed without our consent. We will not change the investment policy of the Separate Account without the approval of the Insurance Commissioner of the state of Arizona, our state of domicile, and without the approval of the Insurance Department of the state of New York. The process for such approval is on file. GENERAL PROVISIONS Entire Contract - This policy is a contract between you and us. This policy, any attached endorsements, benefits and riders and the attached copy of the initial application are the entire contract, except as follows. Any written application for a change in policy terms allowed by the policy after issue or written notice of exercise of policy options made after the policy has been issued will also become part of the contract upon our acceptance of such application or notice and our mailing of same to your address last known to us. Only our president, chief executive officer or secretary is authorized to change this contract or extend the time for paying premiums. Any such change must be in writing. P0156-NY Page 18 (P) All statements in the application shall be deemed representations and not warranties. We will not use any statement to contest this policy or defend a claim on grounds of misrepresentation unless the statement is in an application. Non-Participating - This policy will not share in any of our surplus earnings. Incontestability - We will not contest this policy unless there was a material misrepresentation in an application, including any reinstatement application. Except for failure to pay premiums, this policy cannot be contested after the expiration of the following time periods: . If this policy has not been reinstated, we cannot contest this policy after it has been in force during the lifetime of at least one of the Insureds for two years from the Policy Date; . Following a reinstatement, we cannot contest this policy after it has been in force during the lifetime of at least one of the Insureds for two years from the reinstatement date; and . If this policy was issued under a term insurance conversion option, we cannot contest the converted amount after the policy has been in force during the lifetime of at least one of the Insureds for two years from the later of the issue of the term policy or any reinstatement date of the term policy or of this policy. Suicide Exclusion - If the death of both Insureds, or the Survivor, is the result of suicide, within two years of the policy date, no death benefit proceeds will be paid. Instead, we will pay to the beneficiary the sum of the gross premiums charged on the policy less dividends paid in cash or used in the payment of premiums thereon and less any indebtedness to us on the policy, including interest due or accrued. If only one of the two Insureds under this policy dies by suicide, within two years of the policy date, we will automatically, without Evidence of Insurability, reform and reissue the policy as of the original policy date as a single life policy on the Survivor, which shall be substantially the same as the coverage provided under this policy. In order to effect such reformation and reissuance, you must provide proof of death by suicide within 90 days of such death. Any suicide and incontestability provisions of the reformed and reissued single life policy will be effective as of the policy date of the original policy. Within 30 days after receiving notification of death, we will provide you with information regarding any payments required for the single life policy. If a payment is required to keep the single life policy in force, you will have 60 days after such notice to pay the amount required. If the Survivor dies prior to expiration of such 60-day period without having made payment, we will pay a death benefit based on the full Face Amount of the original policy net of any payments which remain due and payable on the single life policy. Misstatement - If the either Insured's age has been misstated, the death benefit will be adjusted so that the NAR after adjustment is the NAR before the adjustment multiplied by the ratio of the incorrect Cost of Insurance (COI) rate to the correct COI rate. If the Minimum Death Benefit after adjustment is larger, the death benefit will be this larger amount. Evidence of Insurability - We reserve the right to require Evidence of Insurability for any policy change or any premium payment which would result in an increase in NAR. Maturity - This policy does not mature, but will continue in force so long as at least one Insured is alive and there is sufficient Accumulated Value to provide for the Monthly Deduction due. After Age 100 of the younger Insured, no Monthly Deduction is due. Reports - A report will be mailed to you at the end of each policy quarter to your last known address. This report will include the following information for the policy quarter: . the Accumulated Value; . the Cash Surrender Value; . the current death benefit; . any Surrender Charges; P0156-NY Page 19 (P) . any existing Policy Debt; . transactions that occurred during the policy quarter; . changes in the Guideline Premiums, if applicable; and . any information required by law. In addition to the above reports, an annual report will also be mailed to you. The report will contain financial statements for the Separate Account and the designated investment company or companies in which the Separate Account invests, the latter of which will include a list of the portfolio securities of the investment company, as required by the Investment Company Act of 1940. We will also send any other reports as required by federal securities law and applicable law and regulation of the state of New York. Policy Illustrations - Upon request we will give you an illustration of the future benefits under this policy based upon both guaranteed and current cost factor assumptions. However, if you ask us to do this more than once in any policy year, we reserve the right to charge you a fee not to exceed $25 per request for this service. Illustrated benefits that are not guaranteed, such as benefits based on the current cost factor assumptions, will vary depending upon a number of factors, including but not limited to, changes in future investment performance. Basis of Values - A detailed statement showing how values are determined has been filed with the Insurance Department of the state of New York. All values are at least equal to the minimums required by the law of the state in which this policy is delivered, based on the Commissioner's 1980 Standard Ordinary Mortality Table and interest at the rate of 3%. Such values do not change upon the first death of the Insureds, nor do the cost of insurance rates; that is, the values and rates are based on the Frasier rate structure. Ownership of Assets - We have the exclusive and absolute control of our assets, including all assets in the Separate Account. Tax Qualification as Life Insurance - This policy is intended to qualify as a life insurance contract for federal tax purposes, and the death benefit under this policy is intended to qualify for federal income tax exclusion. The policy, including any other rider, benefit or endorsement, shall be interpreted to ensure and maintain such tax qualification, despite any other provision to the contrary. We will not accept a premium payment which would cause the policy to fail to qualify as a life insurance contract for federal tax purposes. If at any time the premiums paid under the policy exceed the amount allowable for such tax qualification, the excess amount, including any associated investment gains or losses, shall be removed from the policy as of the date of its payment in accordance with federal tax law, and any appropriate adjustment in the death benefit shall be made as of such date. The excess amount, including any associated investment gains or losses, shall be refunded no later than 60 days after the end of the applicable contract year as determined under federal tax law. For any such refund, any premium load originally assessed will be refunded and no surrender charges will apply. If this excess amount is not refunded by the end of such 60-day period, the death benefit shall be increased retroactively to the minimum extent necessary so that at no time is the death benefit ever less than the amount necessary to ensure or maintain such tax qualification, and the Accumulated Value will be reduced to reflect the increased Monthly Deductions as a result of such death benefit increase. If you request a decrease in policy or rider benefits, it may cause a reduction in any applicable limitations on premiums or cash values for the policy under federal tax law. Such a reduction in these limits may require us to make a distribution from the policy equal to the greatest amount by which the premiums paid or cash values for the policy, as determined under federal tax, exceed any such reduced limits, in order to maintain the policy's tax qualification. If such a distribution is made, the distribution will be paid to you and the Accumulated Value will be reduced by the amount of the distribution. However, no request for a decrease in policy or rider benefits will be allowed to the extent that the resulting reduction in such tax limits would require us to distribute more than the Net Cash Surrender Value for the policy. P0156-NY Page 20 (P) MEC Status - Unless you have given us Written Notice to the contrary, the provisions of this MEC Status subsection apply. MEC stands for Modified Endowment Contract. Under federal tax law, if the funding of a life insurance contract occurs too rapidly, it becomes a MEC and fails to qualify for certain favorable treatment as a result. This policy is intended to qualify as a life insurance contract that is not a MEC for federal tax purposes. This policy, including any other rider, benefit or endorsement, shall be interpreted to prevent the policy from being subject to such MEC treatment, despite any other provision to the contrary. We will not accept a payment as premium or otherwise which would cause the policy to become a MEC. If at any time the amounts paid under the policy exceed the limit for avoiding such MEC treatment, the excess amount, including any associated investment gains or losses, shall be removed from the policy as of the date of its payment in accordance with federal tax law, and any appropriate adjustment in the death benefit shall be made as of such date. The excess amount, including any associated investment gains or losses, shall be refunded no later than 60 days after the end of the applicable contract year as determined under federal tax law. For any such refund, any premium load originally assessed will be refunded and no surrender charges will apply. If this excess amount is not refunded by the end of such 60-day period, the death benefit shall be increased retroactively to the minimum extent necessary so that at no time is the death benefit ever less than the amount necessary to avoid such MEC treatment, and the Accumulated Value will be reduced to reflect the increased Monthly Deductions as a result of such death benefit increase. Any request that would change the death benefits under the policy and riders will not be processed if the change would cause the policy to be treated as a MEC. Such changes include a reduction in the face amount, a change in death benefit option, and a reduction in face amount due to a withdrawal. Other Distributions of Accumulated Value - If the NAR ever exceeds three times the original Face Amount, we reserve the right to make a distribution of Accumulated Value to make the NAR equal three times the original Face Amount. In such case, the distribution will be treated as a premium refund and no surrender charge will be imposed. By treating the distribution as a premium refund, we mean that, in addition to the distribution of Accumulated Value which you will receive, we will also pay you an amount representing a return of premium load associated with the distribution. The amount representing the return of premium load will be equal to the reduction in Accumulated Value multiplied by (1/(1-premium load rate))-1, provided that such amount can never exceed the total premium load paid under the policy. Termination - This policy will terminate on the earliest of: . the death of the Survivor; and . the lapse or surrender of this policy. Compliance - We reserve the right to make any change to the provisions of this policy to comply with, or give you the benefit of, any federal or state statute, rule, or regulation, including those of the state of New York and including the requirements for life insurance contracts under the Code. After filing with, and approval by, the Insurance Department of the state of New York, we will provide you with a copy of any such change. You have the right to refuse the change.

This rider has no cash value, but it affects the cash value of the policy. Death Benefit - The Face Amount of the policy to which this benefit is attached is modified to include the Face Amount of this benefit. The death benefit for this policy will depend on the combined Face Amount of the policy and this benefit and will be determined as described in the policy. Face Amount - The Face Amount provided by this benefit in any policy year is shown in the policy specifications pages. Such amount may be level or varying by policy year. Unscheduled increases or decreases in the Face Amount may take place after the policy date as described below. The initial Face Amount is the Face Amount on this benefit's effective date. Unscheduled Change of Face Amount - Subject to our approval, you may to change the Face Amount of this rider by Written Request while this rider is in force. Such request cannot be made effective before the first policy anniversary. Upon approval of any unscheduled change in Face Amount, we will issue a supplemental schedule of coverage, which will include the following information: . the effective date of the change; . the amount of the increase or decrease; . if the change is an increase in Face Amount, the Insured's risk classification for the increase and the Guaranteed Maximum Monthly Cost of Insurance Rates applicable to the increase. Unscheduled Face Amount Increase - If your request to change the Face Amount is a request for an increase, then our approval of the increase is subject to the following conditions: . you provide evidence of insurability satisfactory to us; . no previous increase has been made effective in the same policy year; . the Insured consents to the increase; and . the increase is at least $10,000. An Administrative Charge not to exceed $100 will be deducted from the policy's Accumulated Value on the effective date of any such increase. This charge is to cover expenses associated with our evaluation of evidence of insurability. The effective date of the increase will be the first Monthly Payment Date on or following the date all applicable conditions are met. Unscheduled Face Amount Decrease - The Face Amount may be decreased only if there has been no previous decrease in the same policy year. Any decrease in Face Amount that you request for any policy year will first be applied against the most recent increase, if any, and then against successively earlier increases, if any, and finally against the original Face Amount. The effective date of the decrease will be the first Monthly Payment Date on or following the date we receive your Written Request. If the Face Amount varies automatically by policy year as shown in a schedule of Face Amounts in the Policy Specifications, any unscheduled decrease in the Face Amount which you request for any policy year will require equivalent decreases for future policy years. You will be informed of such equivalent future decreases, and your consent will be obtained before your requested decrease becomes effective. Benefit Charges - The monthly charge for this benefit is equal to the sum of the Benefit Charges applicable to the following portions of the Face Amount: . initial Face Amount of this benefit remaining in force for that month; plus . each increase in the Face Amount of this benefit remaining in force for that month. The Benefit Charge for each portion of the Face Amount noted above is obtained by multiplying the applicable monthly Cost of Insurance Rate by the appropriate portion of the Face Amount at the beginning of the policy month divided by 1.002466. R01LST-NY Page 1 of 3 If there has been an unscheduled decrease in the Face Amount, see the Unscheduled Decrease in Face Amount provision for a description of the order in which the existing Face Amount has been decreased or eliminated.

Part of the cost is intended to recover acquisition expenses at issue. Such expense recoveries are greater in the early policy years. The Cost of Insurance Rates for the initial Face Amount are based on the policy duration and on the two insured's ages and risk classifications on the policy date. The Cost of Insurance Rates for each increase in the Face Amount are based on the policy duration applicable to the increase and on the two insured's ages and risk classifications on the effective date of the increase. The current monthly Cost of Insurance Rates will be determined by us and are subject to change at any time, but will not exceed the Guaranteed Maximum Monthly Cost of Insurance Rates for this benefit shown on the policy specifications pages. Guaranteed Maximum Cost of Insurance rates are based on the 1980 Commissioners' Standard Ordinary Mortality Table. The Cost of Insurance Rates used to calculate the Cost of Insurance Charges for an increase in coverage necessary to meet the Guideline Minimum Death Benefit will be the same as those used for the most recent Face Amount in force under this benefit. Changes to Policy Factors - Any change in the cost factors for this benefit, including cost of insurance rates, risk and expense charges will be by class and based on changes in our expectations of future investment earnings, mortality, persistency, taxes and expenses. Class is determined by a number of factors, including the Insured's Age, Risk Classification, Policy Date and policy duration. Any such change will be determined in accordance with procedures and standards on file with the Insurance Department of the state of New York and will apply uniformly to all members of the same class. Cost of insurance rates and other expense factors will be reviewed no more frequently than annually and no less frequently than once every five years to determine whether an adjustment is necessary.

Sale of Fund Shares ------------------- 1.1. The Distributor agrees to sell to the Companies those shares of the series offered and made available by the Fund and identified in Exhibit B ("Series"), that a Company orders on behalf of its Separate Accounts, and agrees to execute such orders on each day on which the Fund calculates its net asset value pursuant to rules of the SEC ("business day") at the net asset value next computed after receipt and acceptance by the Fund or its agent of the order for the shares of the Fund. 1.2. The Fund agrees to make available on each business day shares of the Series for purchase at the applicable net asset value per share by the Companies on behalf of their Separate Accounts; provided, however, that the Board of Trustees of the Fund may refuse to sell shares of any Series to any person, or suspend or terminate the offering of shares of any Series, if such action is required by law or by regulatory authorities having jurisdiction or is, in the sole 3 discretion of the Trustees, acting in good faith and in light of the Trustees' fiduciary duties under applicable law, necessary in the best interests of the shareholders of any Series. 1.3. The Fund and Distributor agree that shares of the Series of the Fund will be sold only to Participating Insurance Companies, their separate accounts, and other persons consistent with each Series being adequately diversified pursuant to Section 817(h) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended ("Code") and the regulations thereunder. 1.4. The Fund and the Distributor will not sell shares of the Series to any insurance company other than the Companies or to the separate account of any such other insurance company unless an agreement containing provisions substantially the same as those in Article IV and Sections 5.5 and 5.6 of Article V of this Agreement is in effect to govern such sales. 1.5. Upon receipt of a request for redemption in proper form from a Company, the Fund agrees to redeem any full or fractional shares of the Series held by the Company, ordinarily executing such requests on each business day at the net asset value next computed after receipt and acceptance by the Fund or its agent of the request for redemption, except that the Fund reserves the right to suspend the right of redemption, consistent with Section 22(e) of the 1940 Act and any rules thereunder. Such redemption shall be paid consistent with applicable rules of the SEC and procedures and policies of the Fund as described in the current prospectus. 1.6. Each Company agrees to purchase and redeem the shares of each Series in accordance with the provisions of the current prospectus for the Fund. 4 1.7. Each Company shall pay for shares of the Series in federal funds transmitted by wire no later than 11:00 a.m. Eastern time the next following business day after it places an order to purchase shares. 1.8. Issuance and transfer of shares of the Series will be by book entry only unless otherwise agreed by the Fund. Stock certificates will not be issued to the Companies or the Separate Accounts unless otherwise agreed by the Fund. Shares ordered from the Fund will be recorded in an appropriate title for the Separate Accounts or the appropriate subaccounts of the Separate Accounts. 1.9. The Fund shall promptly furnish notice (by wire or telephone, followed by written confirmation) to each Company of any income dividends or capital gain distributions payable on the shares of the Series. Each Company hereby elects to reinvest in the Series all such dividends and distributions as are payable on a Series' shares and to receive such dividends and distributions in additional shares of that Series. Each Company reserves the right to revoke this election in writing and to receive all such dividends and distributions in cash. The Fund shall notify each Company of the number of shares so issued as payment of such dividends and distributions. 1.10. The Fund shall instruct its recordkeeping agent to advise each Company on each business day of the net asset value per share for each Series as soon as reasonably practicable after the net asset value per share is calculated. 5 ARTICLE II.

In such an event, that Company agrees to distribute proxy statements and any additional solicitation materials upon the request of the Fund or the Distributor to the owners of the Variable Contracts issued by that Company at least 30 days prior to the meeting. That Company further agrees that it shall take no action, directly or indirectly, in furtherance of shareholders of the Fund or Contract Owners taking any action with respect to the Fund by written consent and without a meeting. 3.11. 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 IV. Potential Conflicts ------------------- 4.1. The Fund's Board of Trustees shall monitor the Fund for the existence of any material irreconcilable conflict: (1) between the interests of owners of scheduled premium variable life insurance policies and owners of flexible premium variable life insurance policies; (2) between the interests of owners of variable annuity contracts and owners of scheduled premium or flexible premium variable life insurance policies, and (3) between the interests of owners of Variable Contracts ("Variable Contract Owners") issued by different Participating Insurance Companies that invest in the Fund. An irreconcilable material conflict may arise for a variety of reasons, including: (a) an action by any state insurance regulatory authority; (b) a 11 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 the Fund or any Series are being managed; (e) a decision by a Participating Insurance Company to disregard the voting instructions of Variable Contract Owners. 4.2. Each Company agrees that it shall be responsible for reporting any potential or existing conflict to the Fund's Board of Trustees. Each Company will be responsible for assisting the Board of Trustees of the Fund in carrying out its responsibilities under this Agreement, by providing the Board with all information reasonably necessary for the Board to consider any issues raised. This includes, but is not limited to, an obligation by each Company to inform the Board whenever Variable Contract Owner voting instructions are disregarded. Each Company shall carry out its responsibility under this Section 4.2 with a view only to the interests of its Variable Contract Owners. 4.3. Each Company agrees that in the event that it is determined by a majority of the Board of Trustees of the Fund or a majority of the Fund's disinterested Trustees that a material irreconcilable conflict exists, that Company shall, to the extent reasonably practicable (as determined by a majority of the disinterested Trustees of the Board of the Fund), take whatever steps are necessary to eliminate the irreconcilable material conflict, including: (1) withdrawing the assets allocable to some or all of the Separate Accounts from the Fund or any Series and reinvesting such assets in a different investment medium, which may include another Series of 12 the Fund, or submitting the question of whether such segregation should be implemented to a vote of all affected Variable Contract Owners and, as appropriate, segregating the assets of any appropriate group (i.e., Contract ---- Owners of Variable Contracts issued by one or more Participating Insurance Companies) that votes in favor of such segregation, or offering to the affected Variable Contract Owners the option of making such a change; and (2) establishing a new registered management investment company or managed separate account. If a material irreconcilable conflict arises because of a Company's decision to disregard Variable Contract Owners' voting instructions and that decision represents a minority position or would preclude a majority vote, that Company shall be required, at the Fund's election, to withdraw its Separate Accounts' investment in the Fund, and no charge or penalty will be imposed as a result of such withdrawal. The Fund shall neither be required to bear the costs of remedial actions taken to remedy a material irreconcilable conflict nor shall it be requested to pay a higher investment advisory fee for the sole purpose of covering such costs. In addition, no Variable Contract Owner shall be required directly or indirectly to bear the direct or indirect costs or remedial actions taken to remedy a material irreconcilable conflict. A new funding medium for any Variable Contract need not be established pursuant to this Section 4.3, if an offer to do so has been declined by vote of a majority of Variable Contract Owners materially adversely affected by the irreconcilable material conflict. All reports received by the Fund's Board of Trustees of potential or existing conflicts, and all Board action with regard to determining the existence of a conflict, notifying Participating Insurance Companies and the Fund's investment adviser of a conflict, and determining whether any proposed action adequately remedies a conflict, shall be properly recorded in the minutes of the Board of Trustees of the Fund or other appropriate 13 records, and such minutes or other records shall be made available to the SEC upon request. Each Company and the Fund shall carry out their responsibilities under this Section 4.3 with a view only to the interests of the Variable Contract Owners. 4.4. The Board of Trustees of the Fund shall promptly notify each Company in writing of its determination of the existence of an irreconcilable material conflict and its implications. ARTICLE V. Prospectuses and Proxy Statements; Voting ----------------------------------------- 5.1. Each Company shall distribute such prospectuses, proxy statements and periodic reports of the Fund to the owners of Variable Contracts issued by that Company as required to be distributed to such Variable Contract Owners under applicable federal or state law. 5.2. The Distributor shall provide each Company with as many copies of the current prospectus of the Fund as that Company may reasonably request. If requested by a Company in lieu thereof, the Fund shall provide such documentation (including a final copy of the Fund's prospectus as set in type, electronic file or in camera-ready copy) and other assistance as is reasonably necessary in order for the Company to print together in one document the current prospectus for the Variable Contracts issued by the Company and the current prospectus for the Fund. The Fund shall bear the expense of printing copies of its current prospectus that will be distributed to existing Variable Contract Owners, and each Company shall bear the expense of printing copies of the Fund's prospectus that are used in connection with offering those Variable Contracts issued by that Company. 14 5.3. The Fund and the Distributor shall provide (1) at the Fund's expense, one copy of the Fund's current Statement of Additional Information ("SAI") to each Company and to any owner of a Variable Contract issued by a Company who requests such SAI, (2) at a Company's expense, such additional copies of the Fund's current SAI as that Company shall reasonably request and that that Company shall require in accordance with applicable law in connection with offering the Variable Contracts issued by that Company. 5.4. The Fund, at its expense, shall provide a Company with copies of its proxy material, periodic reports to shareholders and other communications to shareholders in such quantity as that Company shall reasonably require for purposes of distributing to owners of Variable Contracts issued by that Company. The Fund, at a Company's expense, shall provide that Company with copies of its periodic reports to shareholders and other communications to shareholders in such quantity as that Company shall reasonably request for use in connection with offering the Variable Contracts issued by that Company. If requested by a Company in lieu thereof, the Fund shall provide such documentation (including a final copy of the Fund's proxy materials, periodic reports to shareholders and other communications to shareholders, as set in type or in camera-ready copy) and other assistance as reasonably necessary in order for that Company to print such shareholder communications for distribution to owners of Variable Contracts issued by that Company. 5.5. For so long as the SEC interprets the 1940 Act to require pass-through voting by Participating Insurance Companies whose Separate Accounts are registered as investment companies under the 1940 Act, each Company shall vote shares of each Series of the Fund held 15 in a Separate Account or a subaccount thereof that is registered as an investment company under the 1940 Act, at regular and special meetings of the Fund in accordance with instructions timely received by that Company (or its designated agent) from owners of Variable Contracts funded by such Separate Account or subaccount thereof having a voting interest in the Series. Each Company shall vote shares of a Series of the Fund held in a such a registered Separate Account or a subaccount thereof that are attributable to its Variable Contracts as to which no timely instructions are received, as well as shares held in such Separate Account or subaccount thereof that are not attributable to its Variable Contracts and owned beneficially by the Company (resulting from charges against the Variable Contracts or otherwise), in the same proportion as the votes cast by owners of the Variable Contracts funded by that Separate Account or subaccount thereof having a voting interest in the Series from whom instructions have been timely received. Each Company shall vote shares of each Series of the Fund held in its general account, if any, in the same proportion as the votes cast with respect to shares of the Series held in all Separate Accounts of that Company or subaccounts thereof, whether or not registered, in the aggregate. 5.6. The Fund shall disclose in its prospectus or Statement of Additional Information, to the extent pertinent, that (1) shares of the Series of the Fund are offered to affiliated or unaffiliated insurance company separate accounts which fund both annuity and life insurance contracts and, (2) due to differences in tax treatment or other considerations, the interests of various Variable Contract Owners participating in the Fund or a Series might at some time be in conflict, and (3) the Board of Trustees of the Fund will monitor for any material conflicts and determine what action, if any, should be taken. The Fund hereby notifies the Companies that 16 prospectus disclosure may be appropriate, to the extent pertinent, regarding potential risks of offering shares of the Fund to separate accounts funding both variable annuity contracts and variable life insurance policies, to separate accounts funding Variable Contracts of unaffiliated life insurance companies. ARTICLE VI. Sales Material and Information ------------------------------ 6.1. Each Company shall furnish, or shall cause to be furnished, to the Fund or its designee, each piece of sales literature or other promotional material in which the Fund (or any Series thereof) or its investment advisers or the Distributor is named, and no such sales literature or other promotional material shall be used without the approval of the Fund and the Distributor or the designee of either. 6.2. Each Company agrees that neither it nor any of its affiliates or agents shall give any information or make any representations or statements on behalf of the Fund or concerning the Fund other than the information or representations contained in the Registration Statement or prospectus for the Fund shares, as such registration statement and prospectus may be amended or supplemented from time to time, or in reports or proxy statements for the Fund, or in sales literature or other promotional material approved by the Fund or its designee or by the Distributor or its designee, except with the permission of the Fund or its designee or the Distributor or its designee. 6.3. The Fund or the Distributor or the designee of either shall furnish to each Company or its designee, each piece of sales literature or other promotional material in which 17 that Company or its Separate Accounts are named, and no such material shall be used without the approval of that Company or its designee. 6.4. The Fund and the Distributor agree that each, and the affiliates and agents of each, shall not give any information or make any representations on behalf of a Company or concerning that Company, its Separate Accounts, or the Variable Contracts issued by that Company, other than the information or representations contained in a registration statement or prospectus for such Variable Contracts, as such registration statement and prospectus may be amended or supplemented from time to time, or in reports for the Separate Accounts or prepared for distribution to owners of such Variable Contracts, or in sales literature or other promotional material approved by that Company or its designee, except with the permission of that Company. 6.5. The Fund will provide to each Company at least one complete copy of all prospectuses, Statements of Additional Information, reports, proxy statements and other voting solicitation materials, and all amendments and supplements to any of the above, that relate to the Fund or its shares, promptly after the filing of such document with the SEC or other regulatory authorities. 6.6. Each Company will provide to the Fund at least one complete copy of all prospectuses (which shall include an offering memorandum if the Variable Contracts issued by that Company or interests therein are not registered under the 1933 Act), Statements of Additional Information, reports, solicitations for voting instructions, and all amendments or supplements to any of the above, that relate to the Variable Contracts issued by that Company or 18 its Separate Accounts promptly after the filing of such document with the SEC or other regulatory authority. 6.7.

("PLA"), an Arizona corporation, and Pacific Life Insurance Company (PLIC), a California corporation. WHEREAS, PLA desires to contract with PLIC to provide certain services for certain individual life, individual annuity, and institutional product contracts; and WHEREAS, PLIC desires to provide such administrative services for PLA on the following terms and conditions; NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual promises and agreements contained herein, the parties do mutually agree as follows: 1. Services. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement, PLIC agrees with respect to certain PLA contracts, specifically, any and all individual life, individual annuity, and institutional product contracts (collectively "the Contracts"), to provide the administrative services described in Schedule A, attached hereto and made a part hereof, together with such other services that PLA may reasonably request (collectively "the Services") with respect to the Contracts. 2. Charges for Services. As consideration for the Services provided by PLIC pursuant to this Agreement, PLA agrees to pay PLIC a fee based on actual costs, determined in a fair and reasonable manner, which costs will not include a profit factor and which will be allocated equitably in accordance with customary insurance accounting practices, where applicable, consistently applied. For purposes of this Agreement, the parties agree that at no time will charges for Services exceed the amounts reflected in the Contract Specifications provided by PLA from time to time to PLIC. 3. Subcontractors. PLIC may subcontract with any subsidiary or affiliate of PLIC to provide Services; provided that subcontracting shall not result in an increase in the amount charged for such Services or a decrease in the quality of such Services provided. 4. Indemnification. PLA agrees to defend, indemnify and hold PLIC harmless from and against all costs, reasonable expenses, losses, damages, attorneys' fees, claims, obligations and liabilities imposed upon, incurred or asserted against PLIC which arise out of or in any manner are connected with Contracts administered by PLIC under this Agreement, except if the conduct of PLIC constitutes an intentional tort, reckless conduct, gross negligence or bad faith, or if PLIC issues a Contract which is inconsistent with the approved policy specifications. 5. Underwriting and Claims Services. All underwriting and claims services provided to PLA under this Agreement are to be based upon the written criteria, standard and guidelines of PLA. PLA shall have the ultimate and final authority over decisions 1 and policies relating to the Contracts; to include but not be limited to the acceptance, rejection or canceling of risks relating to or with respect to such Contracts. 6. Supervision by the Company. PLIC acknowledges that (a) the Board of Directors and officers of PLA are vested with the power, authority, and responsibility for managing the business and affairs of PLA, and (b) any and all actions taken or advice or services provided pursuant to this Agreement by PLIC are subject to the continuous supervision and approval of the Board of Directors and the officers of PLA. 7. Billing. All charges made pursuant to this Agreement shall be billed by PLIC monthly, if feasible, but in no event less frequently than quarterly. Payment is due as soon as practicable, but in no event later than 60 days after presentation of the billing. Interest may be assessed by PLIC 61 days after presentment of the billing, at a 3-month LIBOR rate. Billings shall be accompanied by sufficient documentation to support the charges and to meet all state insurance regulatory requirements. Statements are subject to final adjustment only if mutually agreed upon by both parties. 8. Accounting Records and Documents. (a) The books, accounts, and records of each party to all transactions shall be maintained so as to clearly and accurately disclose the precise nature and details of the transactions, including accounting information that is necessary to support the reasonableness of the charges or fees to the parties. PLIC shall keep such account and records insofar as they pertain to the computation of charges hereunder available at its principal offices for audit, inspection, and copying, during reasonable business hours, by PLA and persons authorized by it and any governmental agency having jurisdiction over PLA. (b) All books, records and files established and maintained by PLIC by reason of its performance under this Agreement which, absent this Agreement, would have been held by PLA, shall be deemed the property of PLA, and shall be subject to audit, inspection, and copying, during reasonable business hours, by PLA and persons authorized by it and any governmental agency having jurisdiction over PLA. All such books, records and files shall be promptly transferred to PLA by PLIC upon termination of this Agreement, at PLA's expense. 9. Notices. All written notices, requests, and other communications hereunder shall be delivered to the addresses set forth on the signature page of this Agreement, or any address hereinafter agreed upon by the parties. 10. Governing Law. This Agreement shall be construed and governed in accordance with the laws of the State of Arizona. 2 11. Entire Agreement; Amendment. This Agreement shall constitute the entire agreement among the parties and supersedes all prior agreements and understandings, whether written or verbal, to the extent such agreements pertain to the rights and responsibilities set forth herein. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Agreement does not supersede either of the Pacific Life Insurance Company Administrative Services Agreement with Pacific Life Insurance Company and its Subsidiaries and Affiliates dated September 1, 1997 and the Investment Management Agreement dated January 1, 1990. This Agreement may be amended only in a writing executed by all parties. 12. Arbitration. In the event any dispute arises between the parties related in any way to this Agreement on which agreement between the parties cannot be reached, the dispute shall be decided by arbitration in accordance with procedures agreed upon by the parties after such dispute arises. 13. Termination. This Agreement may be terminated upon 60 days written notice by written agreement of either party hereto. PLA may terminate the contract in the event PLIC fails to perform its responsibilities hereunder in a satisfactory manner. 14. Assignment. Except as set forth in Section 3 hereof, PLIC cannot assign its duties or obligation, in whole or in part, under this Agreement to any other firm, organization or individuals without the express written consent of PL&A, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. 15. Severability. To the extent this Agreement may be in conflict with any applicable law or regulation, this Agreement shall be construed in a manner consistent with such law or regulation. The invalidity or illegality of any provision of this Agreement shall not be deemed to affect the validity or legality of any other provision of this Agreement.

I agree that your rights in respect to each such debit shall be the same as if it were a debit drawn on you and signed personally by me. This authority is to remain in effect until revoked by me in writing, and until you actually receive such notice I agree that you shall be fully protected in honoring any such debit. - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ REMARKS - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ GPT/CVAT DISCLOSURE: - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ The Internal Revenue Code has two separate tests, at least one of which must be satisfied by a policy for it to qualify as life insurance for federal tax purposes. As applicant, you choose which of the two tests you want to use. You may not change the test after the policy has been issued. The two tests are the Guideline Premium Test (GPT) and the Cash Value Accumulation Test (CVAT). GPT limits the amount of premiums that can be paid for a policy, and may require the death benefit to increase above the specified amount if the cash value is large. CVAT does not limit premiums, but it also requires the death benefit to increase above the specific amount if the cash value is large. With CVAT the death benefit may need to be increased earlier than with GPT and by a larger amount, assuming the same cash values under both tests. Under either test, the cost of insurance charge is based on the total death benefit in force, including any increases resulting from your choice of GPT or CVAT. You should consider the CVAT test if you wish to maximize premium payments over a short period. You should consider the GPT test if you wish to maintain a higher level of cash value in relation to death benefit protection. Your agent can supply you with illustrations showing the effects of each test and explain how each affects the policy. You should consult your tax advisor for any tax questions. - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ DECLARATIONS - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The purpose of the underwriting process is to make sure you qualify for insurance under our rules, and assuming you do, establish the proper premium charge for that insurance. This process - the evaluation of risks - assures that the cost of insurance is distributed equitably among all policyowners, and that each individual pays his or her fair share. To determine your insurability, we must consider such factors as your medical history, physical condition, occupation and hazardous avocations. We get this information from various sources. SOURCES OF INFORMATION Application and Medical Records - Your application, including the medical history, is the primary source of information in the evaluation process. In addition, we may ask you to take a physical examination or other special test such as an electrocardiogram. We may also ask for a report from your doctor or hospital, another insurance company, or the Medical Information Bureau. When we do so, we will use the authorization form you signed with your application. MIB, Inc., (Medical Information Bureau) - MIB, Inc., is a non-profit corporation which operates an information exchange on behalf of member life insurance companies. As a member company, we will ask the MIB if it has a record concerning you. If you previously applied to a member company for insurance, MIB may have information about you in its file. The purpose of the MIB is to protect member companies and their policyowners from those who would conceal significant facts relevant to their insurability. The information, which is obtained from MIB, may be used only as an alert to the possible need for further independent investigation. It cannot be used as a basis in making a final underwriting decision. Information regarding your insurability will be treated as confidential. Pacific Life & Annuity Company, its subsidiaries or its reinsurer(s) may, however, make a brief report to the MIB. If you later apply to another MIB member company for life or health insurance coverage, or a claim for benefits is submitted to such a company, the MIB, upon request, will supply the company with the information it may have about you in its file. Pacific Life & Annuity Company, its subsidiaries or its reinsurer(s) may also release information in its file to other life insurance companies to whom you may apply for life or health insurance, or to whom a claim for benefits may be submitted. At your request, the MIB will arrange disclosure of any information it may have about you in its file. If you question the accuracy of information on file, you may contact the MIB and seek a correction in accordance with the procedures set forth in the federal Fair Credit Reporting Act. The address of the information office of MIB, Inc. is Post Office Box 105, Essex Station, Boston, Massachusetts 02112, telephone number (617) 426-3660. Investigative Consumer Report - As part of our underwriting procedure, we may request an investigative consumer report from a consumer reporting agency. Because you may want to know more about the nature and scope of such a report, we are providing this information below as part of this Notice. A consumer report confirms and supplements the information on your application pertaining to employment and residence verification, smoking habits, marital status, occupation, hazardous avocations and general health. This report may also cover information concerning your general reputation, motor vehicle driving record, criminal activity, personal characteristics and mode of living, except as may be related directly or indirectly to your sexual orientation. This information may be obtained through personal interviews with you, your family, friends, neighbors and business associates. If a report is required and you wish to be personally interviewed, please let us know and we will notify the consumer reporting agency. The information contained in the report may be retained by the consumer reporting agency and subsequently disclosed to other companies to the extent permitted by the Fair Credit Reporting Act. Investigative consumer reports are held in strict confidence and used only to evaluate your application on a fair and equitable basis. You have a right to make a written request within a reasonable time to receive additional detailed information about the nature and scope of this investigation. These reports may have an adverse effect on an individual's eligibility for insurance. If it should, however, we will notify you in writing and identify the reporting agency. DISCLOSURE TO OTHERS Personal information obtained about you during the underwriting process is confidential and will not be disclosed to other persons or organizations without your written authorization except to the extent necessary for the conduct of our business. Examples of situations where we may share information about you are as follows. 1. The agent may retain a copy of your application. If reinsurance were required, the reinsurance company would have access to our application file. 2. We may release information to another life insurance company to whom you have applied for life or health insurance or to whom you have submitted a claim for benefits, if you have authorized it to obtain such information. 3. As stated earlier, we may report information to the Medical Information Bureau. 4. We will disclose information to government regulatory officials, law enforcement authorities and others where required by law. DISCLOSURE TO YOU In general, you have a right to learn the nature and substance of any personal information about you in our file upon written request. Whenever an adverse underwriting decision is made, we will notify you of the reason(s) for the decision and the source of the information upon which our action is based. Medical record information, however, will normally be given only to a licensed physician of your choice. Please refer to the section on MIB, Inc., for that organization's disclosure procedure. Should you feel that any information we have is inaccurate or incomplete, please write to the Manager, Risk Selection Department, Pacific Life & Annuity Company, 700 Newport Center Drive, Newport Beach, California 92660. Your comments will be carefully considered and corrections made where justified. We hope this Notice will help you to understand how we obtain and use personal information in the underwriting process, and the ways you can learn about this information. We are concerned with insuring privacy as well as lives, and the collection, use and disclosure of personal information is limited to those specified in this Notice.

I. PURCHASE AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS A. Premium Schedules and Underwriting Standards -------------------------------------------- The Policy is a flexible premium joint survivorship variable life insurance policy. The Policy provides lifetime insurance protection on the lives of two insureds named in the Policy, with a death benefit payable when the last surviving insured dies while the Policy is in force. A Policy owner may elect one of four options to calculate the amount of death benefit payable under the Policy. The Policy will be offered and sold pursuant to an established mortality structure and underwriting standards in accordance with state insurance laws which prohibit unfair discrimination among Policy owners, but allow cost of insurance rates to be based upon factors such as age, health or occupation. A Policy owner may choose the amount and frequency of premium payments, subject to a minimum of $50 per payment. B. Application and Initial Premium Processing ------------------------------------------ Upon receipt of a completed application for a Policy, PL&A will follow certain insurance underwriting (i.e., evaluation of risk) procedures designed to determine whether the proposed insureds are insurable. This process may involve verification procedures and may require that further information be provided by the applicant before a determination can be made. PL&A will first become obligated under a Policy when the total initial premium is received or on the date the application is accepted by PL&A, whichever is later. After the Policy is issued, insurance coverage under the Policy will be deemed to have begun as of the Policy Date. The Policy Date is usually the date that the Policy is issued. The Policy Date is the date used to determine Policy years, Policy months, and Policy monthly, quarterly, semi-annual and annual anniversaries. C. Additional Premium Payments --------------------------- The Policy is a flexible premium policy, and it provides flexibility to pay premiums at the Policy owner's discretion. When applying for a Policy, a Policy owner will determine a planned periodic premium that provides for the payment of level premiums of fixed intervals over a specified period of time. Each Policy owner will receive a premium reminder notice or listbill on either an annual, semi-annual, or quarterly basis (or monthly (listbill only)), at the option of the Policy owner; however, the Policy owner is not required to pay planned periodic premiums. Payment of the planned periodic premium will not guarantee that a Policy will remain in force. Instead, the duration of the Policy depends upon the Policy's accumulated value. Even if planned periodic premiums are paid, the Policy will lapse any time accumulated value less Policy debt is insufficient to pay the current monthly deduction and a grace period expires without sufficient payment. Any premium payment must be for at least $50. PL&A also may reject or limit any premium payment that would result in an immediate increase in the net amount at risk under the Policy, although such a premium may be accepted with satisfactory evidence of insurability. D. Premium Allocation ------------------ A Policy owner may allocate net premiums among the variable accounts and/or the fixed accounts. When a Policy is issued and all delivery requirements are received at PL&A's Service Center, the Accumulated Value will be automatically allocated according to the Policy owner's instructions in the application or more recent instructions if any (except for amounts allocated to the Loan Account to secure any Debt). The initial allocation must be made in the application for the Policy. All net premiums are allocated to the Policy owner's instructions the later of 10 days after the Policy is issued or when all requirements for the Policy to be considered in force are delivered to the Service Center (the Free-Look Transfer Date). Additional net premium payments will be allocated among the investment alternatives according to the Policy owner's instructions (after the Free-Look Transfer Date). A Policy owner may change the allocation of accumulated value by submitting a proper written request to PL&A's Service Center. PL&A reserves the right to limit the amount allocated to the Fixed LT Account to $1,000,000 during the most recent 12 months for all of a Policy owner's policies. Allocations include net premium payments, transfers and loan repayments. Any excess over $1,000,000 would be transferred to a Policy owner's other Investment Options according to the Policy owner's most recent instructions. E. Reinstatement ------------- PL&A will reinstate a lapsed Policy (see "Policy Lapsation", Section III.C. of this document) at any time within five years after the end of the grace period, provided PL&A receives the following: (1) a written application of the Policy owner; (2) evidence of insurability satisfactory to PL&A for each insured; and (3) payment of all monthly charges and deductions that were due and unpaid during the grace period, and payment of a premium at least equal to three times the most recent monthly deduction. When the Policy is reinstated, the accumulated value will be equal to the accumulated value on the date of the lapse subject to the following: (1) if the Policy is reinstated after the first monthly payment date following lapse, the accumulated value will be reduced by the amount of the Policy debt on the date of lapse and no Policy debt will exist on the date of reinstatement; (2) if the Policy is reinstated on the monthly payment date next following lapse, any Policy debt on the date of lapse will also be reinstated; and (3) no interest on amounts held in PL&A's Loan Account to secure Policy debt will be paid or credited between lapse and reinstatement. Reinstatement will be effective as of the monthly payment date on or next following the date of approval by PL&A, and accumulated value minus Policy debt will be allocated among the variable accounts and the fixed accounts in accordance with the Policy owner's current premium allocation instructions. F. Policy Loans ------------ A Policy owner may borrow from PL&A an amount up to the greater of 90% of the Policy's accumulated value, less any outstanding Policy debt and any surrender charges, or (2) 100% of the product of (a x b/c - d) where (a) equals the Policy's accumulated value less 12 times the current monthly deduction; (b) equals 1 plus the annual loan interest rate credited; (c) equals 1 plus the annual loan interest rate currently charged; and (d) equals any existing Policy debt. The minimum loan that may be taken is $200. A Policy is the only security required for a loan. When a Policy owner takes a loan, an amount equal to the loan is transferred out of the Policy owner's accumulated value in the variable accounts and the fixed accounts on a proportional basis, unless the Policy owner instructs PL&A otherwise. The interest rate on loans is 4.10% annually for all years. PL&A will credit interest monthly on amounts held in the Loan Account to secure the loan at an annual rate of 3.0% in Policy years 1 through 10, and 3.6% in Policy years 11 through 20, and 3.85% in Policy year 21 and thereafter. The owner may repay all or a part of the loan at any time while the Policy is in force. If not repaid, the Policy debt will reduce the amount of death proceeds paid upon the death of the insured, the cash surrender value paid upon surrender, or the refund of premium upon exercise of the Free-Look Right. A loan may affect the length of time the Policy remains in force. The Policy will lapse when accumulated value minus Policy debt is insufficient to cover the monthly deduction against the Policy's accumulated value on any monthly payment date and the minimum payment required is not made during the grace period. Moreover, the Policy may enter the grace period more quickly when a loan is outstanding, because the loaned amount is not available to cover monthly deductions. II. TRANSFER AMONG INVESTMENT OPTIONS The Pacific Select Exec Separate Account (the "Separate Account") is a separate investment account of PL&A used to support the variable death benefits and policy values of PL&A's life insurance policies. The Separate Account currently is made up of thirty one variable accounts which invest in shares of a corresponding portfolio of Pacific Select Fund (the "Fund"), the investment vehicle of the Separate Account. The Fund is registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission under the Investment Company Act of 1940 as an open-end management investment company of the series type. The portfolios of the Fund, each of which has a different investment objective, are the Blue Chip Portfolio, the Aggressive Growth Portfolio, the Aggressive Equity Portfolio, the Emerging Markets Portfolio, the Diversified Research Portfolio, the Small-Cap Equity Portfolio, the International Large-Cap Portfolio, the Equity Portfolio, the I- Net Tollkeeper Portfolio, the Financial Services Portfolio, the Health Sciences Portfolio, the Technology Portfolio, the Telecommunications Portfolio, the Multi-Strategy Portfolio, the Equity Income Portfolio, the Strategic Value Portfolio, the Growth LT Portfolio, the Focused 30 Portfolio, the Mid-Cap Value Portfolio, the International Value Portfolio, the Capital Opportunities Portfolio, the Mid-Cap Growth Portfolio, the Global Growth Portfolio, the Equity Index Portfolio, the Small-Cap Index Portfolio, the REIT Portfolio, the Inflation Managed Portfolio, the Managed Bond Portfolio, the Money Market Portfolio, the High Yield Bond Portfolio, and the Large-Cap Value Portfolio. A Policy owner may allocate accumulated value from the variable accounts to the fixed accounts. However, for the Fixed LT Account, such a transfer will only be permitted in the Policy month preceding a Policy anniversary. Also, if you have transferred out of either Fixed Option within the last 90 days, you cannot transfer into the Fixed Account, except that such a transfer may be made at any time during the first 18 Policy months. Transfers from the fixed accounts to the variable accounts are also permitted, subject to the following restrictions: (1) the Policy owner may not make more than one transfer from the fixed accounts to the variable accounts in any 12-month period; and (2) the Policy owner may transfer no more than the greater of 25% of the Accumulated Value in the Fixed Account or $5,000 to the Variable Accounts in any 12-month period, and no more than the greater of 10% of the Accumulated Value in the Fixed LT Account or $5,000 to the Variable Accounts. PL&A reserves the right to limit the amount allocated to the Fixed LT Account to $1,000,000 during the most recent 12 months for all of a Policy owner's policies. Allocations include net premium payments, transfers and loan repayments. Any excess over $1,000,000 would be transferred to a Policy owner's other Investment Options according to the Policy owner's most recent instructions. III. REDEMPTION PROCEDURES: SURRENDER AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS A. Surrender for Net Cash Surrender Value -------------------------------------- A Policy owner can make partial withdrawals of the net cash surrender value of the Policy starting on the first Policy anniversary. A withdrawal may cause a reduction in Face Amount if the Death Benefit Option is Option A or Option D, as described below. A partial withdrawal must be for at least $500, and the Policy's net cash surrender value after the withdrawal must be at least $500. If there is any Policy debt, the maximum partial withdrawal amount is limited to the excess, if any, of the cash surrender value immediately prior to the withdrawal over the result of the Policy debt divided by 90%. When a partial withdrawal is made on a Policy on which the owner has selected Death benefit Option A or Death Benefit Option D, the face amount under the Policy is decreased by the excess, if any, of the face amount over the result of the death benefit immediately prior to the partial withdrawal minus the amount of the partial withdrawal. A partial withdrawal will not change the face amount of a Policy on which the owner has selected Death Benefit Option B or Death Benefit Option C. However, assuming that the death benefit is not equal to accumulated value times a death benefit percentage, the partial withdrawal will reduce the death benefit by the amount of the partial withdrawal. To the extent the death benefit is based upon the accumulated value times the death benefit percentage applicable to the insureds, a partial withdrawal may cause the death benefit to decrease by an amount greater than the amount of the partial withdrawal. B. Death Claims ------------ Upon the death of both insureds, PL&A will pay to a named beneficiary death benefit proceeds, either in a lump sum or under a payment plan offered under the Policy. The proceeds will be the death benefit under the Policy, plus any insurance proceeds provided by rider, reduced by adjustments for any outstanding Policy debt (and, if in the grace period, any overdue charges). The death benefit will be the greater of the Guideline Minimum Death Benefit or one of the following four options: (1) Death Benefit Option A -- the face amount of the Policy; (2) Death Benefit Option B -- the face amount of the Policy plus the accumulated value; or (3) Death Benefit Option C -- the face amount of the Policy plus the total premiums paid minus total withdrawals; or (4) Death Benefit Option D - the face amount of the policy multiplied by a death benefit factor shown on a Policy's specifications pages. Because the specified percentage is applied to a Policy owner's accumulated value, an increase in accumulated value may increase the death benefit. However, because the death benefit will never be less than the face amount while the Policy is in force, a decrease in the accumulated value may decrease the death benefit but never below the face amount while the Policy is in force. The face amount of the Policy may be decreased by the Policy owner. A decrease in face amount may only be made after the first Policy year. Such a change may change the death benefit, depending, among other things, upon the death benefit option chosen by the owner and whether, and the degree to which, the death benefit under a Policy exceeds the face amount prior to the change. A change in the face amount may affect the net amount at risk under a Policy, which may affect a Policy owner's cost of insurance charge. For these purposes, the net amount at risk is equal to the death benefit less the policy owner's accumulated value. Any request for a change in face amount must be by written application to PL&A's Service Center. A Policy owner may make only one such request per Policy year. C. Policy Lapsation ---------------- If the accumulated value less Policy debt of a Policy is insufficient to cover deductions and charges on a monthly payment date, PL&A will give written notice to the Policy owner that if the amount shown in the notice (which will be sufficient to cover the deduction amount(s) due) is not paid within 61 days (the "grace period"), the Policy owner faces a danger of lapse. The Policy will remain in force through the grace period, but if no payment is forthcoming, it will terminate at the end of the grace period. In order to avoid termination, the Policy owner must pay an amount equal to three times the charges and deductions due on the monthly payment date in which the insufficiency occurred. If the required payment is made during the grace period, such payment will be allocated among the variable accounts and the fixed accounts in accordance with the Policy owner's allocation instructions. If the survivor dies during the grace period, the death benefit proceeds will equal the amount of the death benefit immediately prior to the commencement of the grace period, reduced by any unpaid monthly deductions and charges due and any Policy debt. A lapsed Policy may be reinstated at any time within five years after the end of the grace period but before the maturity date. See "Reinstatement", Section I.E. above. D.
