JOINT SURVIVOR VARIABLE UNIVERSAL LIFE

This Schedule is an attachment to the ING America Equities, Inc. ("ING America Equities") Selling Agreement by and among the parties pursuant to paragraph 17 of that Selling Agreement, effective as of __________________, 2001 or the date that Selling Broker-Dealer submits an application for this product, whichever is later. The provisions of this Schedule shall apply only to Security Life Asset Portfolio Manager policies solicited and issued while this Schedule is in effect. All compensation payable under this Schedule shall be subject to the terms and conditions contained herein at the time of issue of the policy by Security Life of Denver Insurance Company ("Security Life").

          PCA (Primary Commissionable Amount) is the target premium in years one through five (shown on policy schedule pages). Gross premium paid up to the PCA in a year are commissioned at the full PCA rate. A new PCA is generated when a new base coverage segment is created. Note that a death benefit option change does not create a new PCA. Premium dollars are allocated first to PCA, then to SCA, and then to RCA
Under Option M, if the gross premium paid in year one is less than the PCA, the difference is carried over to the second year. Premium received in year two or later up to this difference are commissioned at the full PCA commission rate. No commission is paid on premium in excess of PCA in the first year.
SCA (Secondary Commissionable Amount) is equal to the difference between the gross premium received in each segment year one through five and the corresponding PCA for that year. In the year that a new coverage segment is created all premium received in excess of the PCA total for that year is commissioned at the RCA rate. There is no SCA under Option M.
RCA (Renewable Commissionable Amount) equals the gross premium received per segment year six (Option S) or year two (Option M) and thereafter.
