To: Advisors of Clients Affected by VP Funds' Proxy Ballot Error From: RiverSource Annuities, RiverSource Insurance and RiverSource Investments Subject: Quality Control Issue Impacts 4,500 Proxy Packets for RiverSource VP Funds Date: January 19, 2006 You are being sent this email because you have clients in RiverSource Variable Portfolio (VP) Funds who may have received the wrong ballot. Background: There was an issue with the December 28, 2005, proxy solicitation mailing that impacted 4,500 proxy packages for the RiverSource Variable Portfolio (VP) Funds. This issue resulted in some shareholders receiving proxy materials, including a personalized ballot, intended for someone else. Each ballot contains the client's name, address and the fund name that the ballot represents. All numbers located on the ballot card are the proxy vendor's internal control numbers and are not client account numbers. Please be assured that no client account information was misdirected. Resolution: We have compiled a list of all shareholders included in the affected mailing. New proxy materials (proxy statement, ballot and business-response envelope) will be sent to these shareholders early next week. We will also include a note briefly explaining the issue, apologizing for it and asking shareholders to vote the enclosed ballots. A copy of the note from RiverSource Funds is attached below for your reference. If your clients have questions about their ballot, the proxy resend, or any other proxy questions, please direct them to call the RiverSource Funds Proxy Client Service Center toll free at (877) 256-6085. The proxy service representatives are aware of the recent problem and are prepared to answer any questions that may arise. Representatives are available Monday through Friday, from 8 A.M. to 8 P.M. and Saturday from 10 A.M. to 4 P.M. Central Time. RiverSource Annuities, RiverSource Insurance and RiverSource Investments deeply regret the concern and inconvenience that this problem may have caused. FOR BROKER-DEALER USE ONLY.

Q&A Script Regarding Quality Control Issue for RiverSource Variable Portfolio Funds Proxy Mailing on December 28 Q: What was the issue with the December 28 proxy mailing of the RiverSource Variable Portfolio (VP) Funds? A: ADP, the company that has been printing, packaging and mailing our proxies, recently mailed 4,500 proxy solicitations for RiverSource Variable Portfolio Funds that may have contained a ballot that was misdirected. This issue resulted in some shareholders receiving proxy materials, including a personalized ballot, intended for someone else. Q: Was client account information (e.g., account numbers, social security number, etc.) on the ballot? A: No. Each ballot contains the client's name, address and the fund name that the ballot represents, but does not include client account information. All numbers that appear on the ballot card are ADP's internal control numbers. Q: Why wasn't this corrected before the proxy statements were mailed to clients? A: The proxy packets were sealed and mailed before this issue was discovered. Q: What is being done to remedy the situation? A: RiverSource Funds is working with ADP to execute a timely remailing of the proxy materials to affected VP Funds shareholders. ADP has compiled a list of all shareholders included in the affected mailing. New proxy materials (proxy statement, ballot and business-response envelope) will be sent to these shareholders early next week. We will also include a letter briefly explaining the issue, apologizing for the error and asking shareholders to vote the enclosed ballots. ADP's processes will ensure that shareholders' votes are recorded only once. Q: How are you communicating this issue to advisors? A: A targeted email was sent to advisors who have clients impacted by this issue. Field leaders have also been sent an email to keep them informed. Q: Who should clients call if they have questions about this issue or any RiverSource Funds or RiverSource VP Funds proxy?
