B.	Agreements of Distributor

1. Pursuant to the authority delegated to it by Company, Distributor hereby authorizes Broker during the term of this Agreement to solicit Requests for Group Insurance for, and to service existing holders of, GVUL Contracts provided that a Registration Statement is in effect relating to such GVUL Contracts and provided further that Broker has been notified in writing by Distributor that the GVUL Contracts are qualified for sale under all applicable securities and insurance laws of the state or jurisdiction in which the Requests for Group Insurance will be solicited by Broker.

2. Distributor or the Company will take all actions necessary to effect and maintain registration or qualification of GVUL Contracts under securities and insurance laws of the States or other jurisdictions wherein the same are sold in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

3. Distributor or the Company during the term of this Agreement, will promptly notify Broker of the issuance of any stop order or similar suspension order pertaining to the Registration Statement or any amendments thereto by the SEC or any State or other jurisdiction, or the initiation of any proceedings for that purpose relating to the registration, qualification, and/or offering of GVUL Contracts and of any other action or circumstance that may prevent the lawful sale of GVUL Contracts in any state or jurisdiction.

4. Distributor shall not hold itself out as an "associated person," as that term is defined in Section 3(a)(18) of the Exchange Act, of Broker in connection with activities covered under the Agreement and Distributor shall have full responsibility to supervise and control its “associated persons,” as that term is defined in the By-Laws of FINRA, either registered or unregistered.


C.	Agreements of Broker

1. It is understood and agreed that Broker is a broker-dealer registered with the SEC under the Exchange Act with a FINRA membership in good standing, and that the representatives of Broker who will be soliciting Requests for Group Insurance for, or servicing existing holders of, GVUL Contracts also will be duly registered with FINRA through the Broker.

2. Commencing at such time as Distributor and Broker mutually shall agree, Broker shall use its best efforts to find applicants for GVUL Contracts acceptable to Company. In meeting its obligation to use its best efforts to solicit applicants for GVUL Contracts, Broker shall, during the term of this Agreement, engage in the following activities:

(a)Continuously use only the Prospectus, prospectuses and statements of additional information relating to the Funds, and Marketing Materials, and any amendments or supplements thereto, that have been approved by Company, and all relevant regulatory authorities, and have been provided by Distributor;

(b)Establish and implement procedures reasonably designed to achieve compliance with applicable Federal and State securities laws and regulations, including the rules of FINRA, relating to the sales practices of its representatives; and

(c)Take reasonable steps to ensure that the various representatives registered through it with FINRA shall not make recommendations to applicants for GVUL Contracts.

3. All payments under GVUL Contracts collected by Broker shall be held at all times in a fiduciary capacity and shall be remitted promptly, together with such Requests for Group Insurance, forms and other required documentation to an office of the Company designated by the Company. Wire transfers in payment of premiums shall be designated to The Prudential Insurance Company of America. Broker acknowledges that Company retains the ultimate right to control the sale of GVUL Contracts and that Distributor or Company shall have the unconditional right to reject, in whole or part, any Request for Group Insurance for GVUL Contracts. If the Company or Distributor rejects a Request for Group Insurance, Company immediately will return all payments directly to the applicant and Broker will be promptly notified of such action. If any participant under the GVUL Contracts elects to return such GVUL Contract pursuant to Rule 6e-3(T)(b)(13)(viii) of the Investment Company Act or other applicable law, the participant will receive a refund of premium payments calculated in accordance with applicable law. Broker will be promptly notified of any such action.

4. Broker shall act as a contractor independent of Distributor, and nothing contained here shall cause Broker to be an "associated person," as that term is defined in Section 3(a)(18) of the Exchange Act, of Company or Distributor in connection with the solicitation or servicing of GVUL Contracts. Broker shall not hold itself out to be an associated person of Company or Distributor in this connection or in any dealings with the public at large. Distributor shall have no supervisory responsibility for Broker, and Broker shall have full responsibility to supervise and control its “associated persons,” as that term is defined in the By-Laws of FINRA, either registered or unregistered.

5. Broker agrees that any material it develops, approves or uses for sales, training, explanatory or other purposes in connection with the solicitation of Requests for Group Insurance for GVUL Contracts (other than general advertising materials which do not make specific reference to GVUL Contracts) will not be used without the prior written consent of Distributor and, where appropriate, the endorsement of Company to be obtained by Distributor. Distributor shall be responsible for securing and will secure all required regulatory approvals relating to such materials.

6. Solicitation and service activities by Broker shall be undertaken only in accordance with applicable laws and regulations. No representative of Broker shall solicit Requests for Group Insurance for, or service existing holders of, GVUL Contracts until duly licensed and appointed by Company as a life insurance and variable contract broker or agent of Company in the appropriate states, commonwealths, or other jurisdictions. Broker shall ensure that such representatives fulfill any training requirements necessary to be so licensed. Broker understands and acknowledges that it is not authorized by Distributor or Company, except as otherwise provided for in this Agreement, to give any information or make any representation in connection with this Agreement or the offering or servicing of GVUL Contracts other than those contained in the Prospectus, the prospectuses and statements of additional information for the Funds, or other Marketing Materials, as supplemented or amended, unless authorized in writing by Distributor or Company.

7. Broker shall not have authority on behalf of Distributor or Company to: (1) make, alter or discharge GVUL Contracts, or any other form used in connection with the GVUL Contracts; (2) waive any forfeiture, extend the time of paying any premium; or (3) receive any monies or premiums due, or to become due, to Company, except as set forth in this Agreement. Broker shall not expend, nor contract for the expenditure of funds of Distributor, nor shall Broker possess or exercise any authority on behalf of Distributor by this Agreement, except as otherwise provided for in this Agreement.

8. Broker shall have the responsibility for maintaining the records of its representatives that are licensed, registered, and otherwise qualified to sell or service GVUL Contracts. Broker shall maintain such other records as are required of it by applicable laws and regulations. The books, accounts, and records of the Account, Company, Distributor, and Broker relating to the sale and service of GVUL Contracts shall be maintained so as to disclose clearly and accurately the nature and details of each

GVUL Broker Agreement 2015 Template:3219757_1

transaction. Copies of all records maintained by Broker in connection with this Agreement shall be made available to and such copies shall become the property of the Distributor upon its written request therefor. Nothing in this Section shall be interpreted to prevent the Broker from retaining any such other records which Broker, in its discretion, deems necessary or desirable to keep. Broker shall keep confidential any information obtained pursuant to this Agreement and shall disclose such information only if Company has authorized such disclosure, or if such disclosure is requested by any Federal, State, or other regulatory authorities, or by any court of competent jurisdiction.


D.	Use of Insurance Agency Affiliate

Distributor acknowledges that representatives of Broker engaged in the solicitation of Purchases and other sales activities involving GVUL Contracts may be employees of an insurance agency affiliate of Broker (any such, an “Insurance Agency Affiliate”). Under such circumstances, Broker agrees: (a) that no Insurance Agency Affiliate will be engaged in the solicitation of Purchases and other sales activities involving GVUL Contracts unless it has a valid Insurance License in each of the applicable Sales Jurisdictions; (b) that any Insurance Agency Affiliate will be an associated person, as defined in Section 3(a)(18) of the Exchange Act, (“Associated Person”) of Broker and will be indicated as either a “branch office” or “office of supervisory jurisdiction” (OSJ) of Broker on any forms required to be filed by Broker with any governmental entity or self-regulatory organization; (c) that Broker will retain full responsibility for compliance with all applicable federal and state securities laws and insurance laws and Broker will continue to fulfill each of the obligations under this Agreement; (d) that any books and records relating to the sale of GVUL Contracts maintained by the Insurance Agency Affiliate will be deemed, for purposes of the Exchange Act, to be books and records of the Broker and will conform to the requirements of Section 17 of the Exchange Act and the rules issued thereunder; (e) that the manner in which the books and records of Broker and Insurance Agency Affiliate are developed and maintained will permit supervisory personnel of Broker, authorized examiners of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), and authorized examiners of any other appropriate governmental agency or self-regulatory organization, to review data concerning transactions effected through Insurance Agency Affiliate to the same extent as if effected through Broker itself; and (f) that no Insurance Agency Affiliate will receive or accumulate deposits, premiums, or contributions intended to be made under any GVUL Contract, but, rather, all such deposits, premiums, or contributions will be made directly from the customer to the Company.


E.	Commissions and Expenses

1. For any particular transaction, the amount of the commission to be paid to Broker, if any, will be the amount agreed to in a writing signed by Broker and by Distributor or the Company during the negotiations for the issuance and delivery of the GVUL Contract or will be the amount derived from the Requests for Group Insurance of the commission rate or commission formula set forth in such a writing.

2. Unless otherwise indicated to the contrary in a writing signed by Broker and by Distributor or the Company during the negotiations for the issuance and delivery of the GVUL Contract:

(a)a commission shall be deemed earned by Broker or Insurance Agency Affiliate only at such time as a Completed Sale has occurred;

(b)the commission shall be payable by Distributor within a reasonable time following the occurrence of a Completed Sale;

(c)neither Distributor nor Company shall be obligated to pay a commission or any other form of compensation or remuneration to the Broker, or any employee or affiliate of the Broker in connection with any of the following: (i) any solicitations, negotiations, or transactions that do not lead to a Completed Sale; or involving a GVUL Contract as to which Broker is not the procuring cause (even if the

GVUL Broker Agreement 2015 Template:3219757_1

purchaser is one for whom Broker may have previously procured GVUL Contracts); (ii) the issuance or delivery of any insurance contracts or other agreements that are not GVUL Contracts; (iii) the issuance or delivery of any GVUL Contracts that are subsequently canceled or rescinded by the customer in accordance with the express terms of the GVUL Contract regardless of the reason therefor; or

(iv) transactions involving sales jurisdictions in which such payments may not legally be paid.

(d)Broker’s rights to receive a Commission (or remaining portion of a Commission) shall survive the expiration or effective date of the termination of this Agreement if and only if: (i) the Commission is payable as a result of a Completed Sale occurring prior to the expiration or effective date of the termination of this Agreement; or (ii) the terms of a writing signed by Broker and by Distributor or the Company during the negotiations for the issuance and delivery of a GVUL Contract provide for the payment of a commission for the transaction in question prior to the occurrence of a Completed Sale and all conditions precedent to the payment of the commission that are specified in such writing have been satisfied as of the expiration or effective date of the termination of this Agreement.

3. Neither Broker nor any of its representatives shall have an interest in any compensation paid by the Company to Distributor, now or hereafter, in connection with the sale or service of any GVUL Contracts.

4. Broker shall be responsible for all expenses it incurs with respect to performing the services provided for in this Agreement.

5. Broker may, by written notice to Distributor, direct Distributor to pay all or any portion of any commission to an Insurance Agency Affiliate. No portion of the Commission shall be payable to any Insurance Agency Affiliate until after Broker has furnished Distributor and the Company with, or the Distributor or the Company have independently obtained, evidence satisfactory to Distributor and the Company that: (a) the Insurance Agency Affiliate holds a valid Insurance License in each of the applicable Sales Jurisdictions; (b) the Insurance Agency Affiliate has been appointed as an insurance agent of the Company to the extent required by the applicable laws; and (c) the Insurance Agency Affiliate is an Associated Person of Broker. Until such time as Broker shall hold a valid insurance license in any jurisdiction, Broker shall direct Distributor in writing to pay all of any commission otherwise payable to Broker directly to an Insurance Agency Affiliate that holds a valid insurance license in the jurisdiction in question and that is an Associated Person of Broker.

6. For the avoidance of doubt, as required by FINRA Rule 2320, any sales commission must be returned to the Company if a GVUL Contract is tendered for redemption within seven business days after acceptance of the contract application or any other longer period set forth in the prospectus or in any other applicable law.
