Registration Statement for Pacific Destinations B (File Number 333-168284)
funded by Separate Account A (File Number 811-08946) of Pacific Life Insurance Company,
Request for Acceleration |
Dear Sir or Madam:
Pursuant to Rule 461 under the Securities Act of 1933, we hereby request on behalf of Pacific Life
Insurance Company and Pacific Select Distributors, Inc. (collectively Registrants), acceleration
of the effective date of the above referenced Registration Statement to November 1, 2010, or as
soon thereafter as practicable.
Registrants acknowledge that the Commission staff has not passed upon the accuracy or adequacy of
the above-referenced filings. Registrants further acknowledge that: should the Commission or the
staff, acting pursuant to delegated authority, declare the filing effective, it does not foreclose
the Commission from taking any action with respect to the filing; the action of the Commission or
the staff, acting pursuant to delegated authority, in declaring the filing effective, does not
relieve the Registrants from its full responsibility for the adequacy and accuracy of the
disclosure in the filing; and the Registrants may not assert this action as a defense in any
proceeding initiated by the Commission or any person under the federal securities laws of the
United States.
