RE:           Lincoln Benefit Life Company (“Registrant”)
Post-Effective Amendments No. 1 to Registration Statements on Form S-1

Dear Sir or Madam:

The above-referenced Registrant filed five Post-Effective Amendments No. 1 to the registration statements on Form S-1 on April 1, 2016.  The purpose of these filings is to update information regarding the Registrant.

As requested, I represent that the disclosures included in the following Post-Effective Amendments No. 1 to the registration statements on Form S-1 do not make any material change to existing disclosures, except those changes contemplated by Rule 485(b) of the Securities Act of 1933 as would apply in the context of Form S-1.  The Supplement dated April 29, 2016 filed as part of the registration statements includes updated information regarding the Registrant’s operations for the year ended December 31, 2015.

As such, if these Post-Effective Amendments No. 1 to the registration statements on Form S-1 pertained to a post-effective amendment of a registration statement of a registered investment company subject to Rule 485 under the Securities Act of 1933, they would be eligible for filing under Rule 485(b) without regard to Rule 485(b)(3) or Rule 485(b)(4).
