Some of the Terms used in this Prospectus may be new to you. You will find a glossary of certain terms in the TERMS USED IN THIS PROSPECTUS section.

An annuity contract may be appropriate if you’re looking for retirement income or you want to meet other long-term financial objectives. Discuss with your qualified investment professional whether a variable annuity, optional benefits and underlying Investment Options are appropriate for you, taking into consideration your age, income, net worth, tax status, insurance needs, financial objectives, investment goals, liquidity needs, time horizon, risk tolerance and other relevant information. Together you can decide if a variable annuity is right for you.

This Contract may not be the right one for you if you need to withdraw money for short-term needs, because withdrawal charges and tax penalties for early withdrawal may apply.

You should consider the Contract’s investment and income benefits, as well as its costs.

Pacific Select Variable Annuity II is an annuity contract between you and Pacific Life Insurance Company. Annuity contracts have two phases, the accumulation phase and the annuitization (income) phase. The two phases are discussed below.

This Contract is designed for long-term financial planning. It allows you to invest money on a tax-deferred basis for retirement or other goals, and/or to receive income in a variety of ways, including a series of income payments for life or for a specified period of years.

Non-Qualified and Qualified Contracts are available. You buy a Non-Qualified Contract with “after-tax” dollars. You buy a Qualified Contract under a qualified retirement or pension plan, or some form of an individual retirement annuity or account (IRA). It’s important to know that IRAs and qualified plans are already tax-deferred which means the tax deferral feature of a variable annuity does not provide a benefit in addition to that already offered by an IRA or qualified plan. An annuity contract should only be used to fund an IRA or qualified plan to benefit from the annuity’s features other than tax deferral.

Pacific Select Variable Annuity II is a variable annuity, which means that the value of your Contract fluctuates depending on the performance of the Investment Options you choose. The Contract allows you to choose how often you make Investments (“Purchase Payments”) and how much you add each time.

During the Free Look period, you have the right to cancel your Contract and return it with instructions to us or to your registered representative for a refund. The amount refunded may be more or less than the Investments you’ve made, depending on the state where you signed your application and the type of Contract you buy.

You will find more information about the Right to Cancel (“Free Look”) period starting on page 32.

The Investment Options you choose and how they perform will affect the value of your Contract during the accumulation phase, as well as the amount available to annuitize on the Annuity Date.

The accumulation phase begins on your Contract Date and continues until your Annuity Date. During the accumulation phase, you can put money in your Contract by making Investments, and choose Investment Options in which to allocate them. You can also take money out of your Contract by making a withdrawal.

Your initial Investment must be at least $5,000 for a Non-Qualified Contract and at least $2,000 for a Qualified Contract. Additional Investments must be at least $100 for a Non-Qualified Contract and $50 for a Qualified Contract. We also call your Investments “Purchase Payments”.

You will find more information about Making Your Investments (“Purchase Payments”) starting on page 11.

You can ask your registered representative to help you choose the right Investment Options for your goals and risk tolerance. Any financial firm or registered representative you engage to provide advice and/or make transfers for you is not acting on our behalf. We are not responsible for any investment decisions or allocations you make, recommendations such financial representatives make or any allocations or specific transfers they choose to make on your behalf.

You can choose from a variety of Variable Investment Options (also called Subaccounts), each of which invests in a corresponding Portfolio of the Pacific Select Fund, AllianceBernstein Variable Products Series Fund, Inc., BlackRock Variable Series Funds, Inc. or Franklin Templeton Variable Insurance Products Trust. The value of each Portfolio will fluctuate with the value of the investments it holds, and returns are not guaranteed.

You can also choose any available fixed option that earns a guaranteed rate of interest of at least 3% annually.

We allocate your Investments to the Investment Options you choose. The value of your Contract will fluctuate during the accumulation phase depending on the Investment Options you’ve chosen. You bear the investment risk of any Variable Investment Options you choose.

You will find more information about the Investment Options and the Investment Advisers starting on page 9.

You can transfer among Investment Options any time, subject to certain limitations, until your Annuity Date without paying any current income tax. Transfers are limited to 25 for each calendar year. Only 2 transfers per month may involve the International Value, International Small-Cap, International Large-Cap or Emerging Markets Investment Options. In addition, only 2 transfers into or out of the American Funds Growth or American Funds Growth-Income Investment Options may occur in any calendar month. If you have used all 25 transfers in a calendar year, you may make one additional transfer of all or a portion of your Variable Account Value to the Money Market Investment Option before the start of the next calendar year. You can also make systematic transfers by enrolling in our dollar cost averaging, portfolio rebalancing or earnings sweep programs. Transfers made under these systematic transfer programs or under an asset allocation program established and maintained by us are excluded from the limitation. Some restrictions may apply to transfers to or from any fixed option.

You will find more information about transfers and transfer limitations starting on page 18.

You can make full and partial withdrawals to supplement your income or for other purposes. You can withdraw a certain amount each year without paying a withdrawal charge, but any amount withdrawn in excess of this amount may incur a withdrawal charge on Investments that are less than 6 years old. Some restrictions may apply to making partial withdrawals from any fixed option.

In general, you may have to pay income taxes on withdrawals or other distributions from your Contract. If you’re under age 59 1/2, a 10% federal tax penalty may also apply to taxable withdrawals.

The income phase of your Contract begins on your Annuity Date. Generally, you can choose to surrender your Contract and receive a single payment or you can annuitize your Contract and receive a series of income payments over a fixed period or for life.

You can choose fixed or variable annuity payments, or a combination of both. Variable annuity payments may not be available in all states. You can choose monthly, quarterly, semi-annual or annual payments. We’ll make the income payments to your designated payee. The Owner is responsible for any tax consequences of any annuity payments.

If you choose variable annuity payments, the amount of the payments will fluctuate depending on the performance of the Variable Investment Options you choose. After your Annuity Date, if you choose variable annuity payments, you can exchange your Subaccount Annuity Units among the Variable Investment Options up to 4 times in any 12-month period.

You will find more information about annuitization starting on page 23 and annuity options available under the Contract starting page 25.

Generally, the Contract provides a death benefit upon the first death of an Owner or the death of the sole surviving Annuitant, whichever occurs first, during the accumulation phase. Death benefit proceeds are payable when we receive proof of death and payment instructions in proper form. To whom we pay a death benefit, and how we calculate the amount of the death benefit depends on who dies first and the type of Contract you own.

The following describes the transaction fees and expenses that you will pay when owning your Contract. Expenses are fixed under the terms of your Contract. Premium taxes and/or other taxes may also apply to your Contract. We generally charge state premium taxes and/or other taxes when you annuitize your Contract, but there are other times when we charge them to your Contract instead. Please see your Contract for details.

The following describes the fees and expenses that you will pay periodically during the time you own your Contract not including Portfolio fees and expenses.

You will find more about the underlying Funds starting on page 9, and in each underlying Fund Prospectus which accompanies this Prospectus.

This table shows the minimum and maximum total annual operating expenses paid by the Portfolios that you indirectly pay during the time you own the Contract. This table shows the range (minimum and maximum) of fees and expenses paid by any of the Portfolios, expressed as an annual percentage of average daily net assets. The amounts are based on expenses paid in the year ended December 31, 2007, adjusted to reflect anticipated changes in fees and expenses, or, for new Portfolios, are based on estimates for the current fiscal year.

Each Variable Account of the Separate Account purchases shares of the corresponding Funds’ Portfolio at net asset value. The net asset value reflects the investment advisory fees and other expenses that are deducted from the assets of the Portfolio. The advisory fees and other expenses are not fixed or specified under the terms of the Contract, and they may vary from year to year. These fees and expenses are described in each Fund Prospectus.

The following examples are intended to help you compare the cost of investing in your Contract with the cost of investing in other variable annuity contracts. The maximum amounts reflected below include the periodic Contract expenses, Separate Account annual expenses and the Portfolio with the highest fees and expenses for the year ended December 31, 2007. The minimum amounts reflected below include the periodic Contract expenses, Separate Account annual expenses and the Portfolio with the lowest fees and expenses for the year ended December 31, 2007.

The examples assume that you invest $10,000 in the Contract for the time periods indicated. They also assume that your Investment has a 5% return each year and assumes the maximum and minimum fees and expenses of all of the Investment Options available. Although your actual costs may be higher or lower, based on these assumptions, your maximum and minimum costs would be:


•	If you did not surrender, nor annuitize, but left the money in your Contract:

You may choose among the different Variable Investment Options and the Fixed Option.

Each Variable Investment Option invests in a separate Portfolio of a Fund. For your convenience, the following chart summarizes some basic data about each Portfolio. This chart is only a summary. For more complete information on each Portfolio, including a discussion of the Portfolio’s investment techniques and the risks associated with its investments, see the applicable Fund Prospectus. No assurance can be given that a Portfolio will achieve its investment objective. YOU SHOULD READ EACH FUND PROSPECTUS CAREFULLY BEFORE INVESTING.

Pacific Life Fund Advisors LLC (PLFA) is the investment adviser for the Pacific Select Fund. PLFA and the Pacific Select Fund’s Board of Trustees oversee the management of all the Pacific Select Fund’s portfolios. PLFA, a subsidiary of Pacific Life Insurance Company, also does business under the name “Pacific Asset Management” (PAM) and manages the Pacific Select Fund’s Money Market and High Yield Bond portfolios under the PAM name.

The fixed option offers you a guaranteed minimum interest rate on amounts that you allocate to this option. Amounts you allocate to this option, and your earnings credited are held in our General Account. For more detailed information about this option, see THE GENERAL ACCOUNT section in this Prospectus.

To purchase a Contract, you must work with your registered representative to fill out an application and submit it along with your initial Investment to Pacific Life Insurance Company at P.O. Box 2290, Omaha, Nebraska 68103-2290. Your registered representative’s broker-dealer firm has up to 7 business days to review and approve your application before the application is sent to us. In those instances when we receive electronic transmission of the information on the application from your representative’s broker-dealer firm and our administrative procedures with your broker-dealer so provide, we consider the application to be received on the Business Day we receive the transmission. If the address on your Contract specification pages is different and our administrative procedures with your broker-dealer so provide, in those instances when information regarding your Investment is electronically transmitted to us by the broker-dealer, we will consider the Investment to be received by us on the Business Day we receive the transmission of the information. If your application and Investment are complete when received, or once they have become complete, we will issue your Contract within 2 Business Days. If some information is missing from your application, we may delay issuing your Contract while we obtain the missing information. However, we will not hold your initial Investment for more than 5 Business Days without your permission. In any case, we will not hold your initial Investment after 20 Business Days.

You may also purchase a Contract by exchanging your existing annuity. You must submit all contracts to be exchanged when you submit your application. Call your registered representative, or call us at 1-800-722-4448. Registered Representatives may call us at 1-800-722-2333.

We reserve the right to reject any application or Investment for any reason, subject to any applicable nondiscrimination laws and to our own standards and guidelines. On your application, you must provide us with a valid U.S. tax identification number for federal and state tax reporting purposes.

The maximum age of a Contract Owner/Annuitant, including Joint and Contingent Owners/Annuitants, for which a Contract will be issued is 85. The Contract Owner’s age is calculated as of his or her last birthday. If any Contract Owner or any sole Annuitant named in the application for a Contract dies and we are notified of the death before we issue the Contract, then we will return the amount we received. If we are not notified of the death and we issue the Contract, then the application for the Contract and/or any Contract issued will be deemed cancelled and a refund will be issued. Depending on the state where your application was signed, the amount of the refund may be more or less than the initial Investment received, or any other Investment we received in connection with an exchange or transfer. In most states, the refund will be the Contract Value based upon the next determined Accumulated Unit Value (AUV) after we receive proof of death, in proper form, of the Contract Owner or Annuitant, plus a refund of any amount used to pay premium taxes and/or any other taxes. If there are Joint Owners named on the Contract, the Contract will be owned as Joint Tenants with Right of Survivorship and not as Tenants in Common. Any refund may subject the refunded assets to probate.

Your initial Investment must be at least $5,000 if you are buying a Non-Qualified Contract, and at least $2,000 if you are buying a Qualified Contract. Currently, we are not enforcing the minimum initial Investment on Qualified Contracts but we reserve the right to enforce the minimum initial Investment on Qualified Contracts in the future. For Non-Qualified Contracts, if the entire minimum initial Investment is not included when you submit your application, you must submit a portion of the

required Contract minimum and/or establish a pre-authorized checking plan (PAC). A PAC allows you to pay the remainder of the required initial Investment in equal installments over the first year. Further requirements for PAC are discussed in the PAC form. We also call each Investment you make a Purchase Payment.

You must obtain our consent before making an initial or additional Investment that will bring your aggregate Investments over $1,000,000. As of July 23, 2004, if you allocate all or part of an additional Purchase Payment to the Fixed Option, the maximum aggregate Investment you may have in the Fixed Option is currently $250,000. This limitation is subject to change at any time. Ask your registered representative about current limitations.

You may choose to invest additional amounts in your Contract at any time. If your Contract is Qualified, the method of contribution and contribution limits may be restricted by the Qualified Plan or the Internal Revenue Code (“the Code”). Each additional Investment must be at least $100 for Non-Qualified Contracts and $50 for Qualified Contracts. Currently, we are not enforcing the minimum additional Investment amounts but we reserve the right to enforce the minimum additional Investment amounts in the future. In certain states additional Investments are limited.

Your initial and additional Investments may be sent by personal or bank check or by wire transfer. Investments must be made in a form acceptable to us before we can process it. Acceptable forms of Investments are:


	•	personal checks or cashier’s checks drawn on a U.S. bank,

	•	money orders and traveler’s checks in single denominations of more than $10,000 if they originate in a U.S. bank,


	•	third party payments when there is a clear connection of the third party to the underlying transaction, and


	•	wire transfers that originate in U.S. banks.


	•	cash,

	•	credit cards or checks drawn against a credit card account,


	•	money orders or traveler’s checks in single denominations of $10,000 or less,


	•	cashier’s checks, money orders, traveler’s checks or personal checks drawn on non-U.S. banks, even if the payment may be effected through a U.S. bank,


	•	third party payments if there is not a clear connection of the third party to the underlying transaction, and


	•	wire transfers that originate from foreign bank accounts.

All unacceptable forms of Investments will be returned to the payor along with a letter of explanation. We reserve the right to reject or accept any form of payment. If you make Investments by check other than a cashier’s check, your payment of any withdrawal proceeds and any refund during the “Right to Cancel” period may be delayed until we receive confirmation in our Annuities administrative office that your check has cleared.

You may allocate your Investments among any of the available Investment Options. Allocations of your initial Investment to the Investment Options you selected will be effective on your Contract Date. Each additional Investment will be allocated to the Investment Options according to your allocation instructions in your application, or most recent instructions, if any, subject to the terms described in the WITHDRAWALS— Right to Cancel (“Free Look”) section in this Prospectus. We reserve the right to require that your allocation to any particular Investment Option must be at least $500. We also reserve the right to transfer any remaining Account Value that is not at least $500 to your other Investment Options on a pro rata basis relative to your most recent allocation instructions.

If your Contract is issued in exchange for another annuity contract or a life insurance policy, our administrative procedures may vary depending on the state in which your Contract is delivered.

The Service. Portfolio Optimization is an asset allocation service that is offered at no additional charge for use within this variable annuity. Asset allocation refers to the manner that investments are distributed among asset classes to help attain an investment goal. For your variable annuity, Portfolio Optimization can help with decisions about how you should allocate your Contract Value among available Investment Options. The theory behind Portfolio Optimization is that diversification among asset classes can help reduce volatility over the long term.

As part of the Portfolio Optimization service, several asset allocation models have been developed (“Portfolio Optimization Models” or “Models”), each based on different profiles of an investor’s willingness to accept investment risk. If you decide to subscribe to the Portfolio Optimization service and select one of the Portfolio Optimization Models, your initial Purchase Payment (in the case of a new application) or Contract Value, as applicable, will be allocated to the Investment Options according to the Model you select. Subsequent Purchase Payments, if allowed under your Contract, will also be allocated accordingly, unless you instruct us otherwise. If you choose, you can rebalance your Contract Value quarterly, semi-annually, or annually, to maintain the current allocations of your Portfolio Optimization Model, since changes in the net asset values of the underlying Portfolios within each Model will alter your asset allocation over time. If you also allocate part of your Purchase Payment or Contract Value that is not currently included in your Model and you elect periodic rebalancing, such amounts will not be considered when rebalancing. If you subscribe to Portfolio Optimization and elect periodic rebalancing, only the Investment Options within your Model will be rebalanced.

If you subscribe to Portfolio Optimization, Pacific Life Fund Advisors LLC (Adviser), a subsidiary of Pacific Life, will serve as your investment adviser for the service solely for purposes of development of the Portfolio Optimization Models and periodic updates of the Models.

On a periodic basis (typically annually), the Portfolio Optimization Models are evaluated and the Models are updated, as discussed below. If you subscribe to Portfolio Optimization, your Contract Value or subsequent Purchase Payments, as applicable, will automatically be reallocated in accordance with the Model you select as it is updated from time to time based on discretionary authority that you grant to the Adviser, unless you instruct otherwise. For more information on the role of the investment adviser for the Portfolio Optimization service, please see the brochure from the Adviser’s Form ADV, the SEC investment adviser registration form, which will be delivered to Contract Owners at the time they apply for a Contract. Please contact us if you would like to receive a copy of this brochure. In developing and periodically updating the Portfolio Optimization Models, the Adviser currently relies on the recommendations of an independent third-party analytical firm. The Adviser may change the firm that it uses from time to time, or, to the extent permissible under applicable law, use no independent firm at all.

The Portfolio Optimization Models. Five asset allocation models are offered, each comprised of a carefully selected combination of Investment Options (reflecting the underlying Portfolios of Pacific Select Fund). Development of the Portfolio Optimization models is a multi-step process. First, an optimization analysis is performed to determine the breakdown of asset classes. Optimization analysis requires forecasting returns, standard deviations and correlation coefficients of asset classes over the desired investing horizon and an analysis using a state-of-the art program and a statistical analytical technique known as “mean-variance optimization”. Next, after the asset class exposures are known, a determination is made of how available Investment Options (underlying Portfolios) can be used to implement the asset class level allocations. The Investment Options are selected by evaluating the asset classes represented by the underlying Portfolios and combining Investment Options to arrive at the desired asset class exposures. The Portfolio-specific analysis uses historical returns-based style analysis and asset performance and regression and attribution analyses. It may also include portfolio manager interviews. Based on this analysis, Investment Options are selected in a way intended to optimize potential returns for each Model, given a particular level of risk tolerance. This process could, in some cases, result in the inclusion of an Investment Option in a Model based on its specific asset class exposure or other specific optimization factors, even where another Investment Option may have better historical performance.

Periodic Updates of the Portfolio Optimization Model and Notices of Updates. Each of the Portfolio Optimization Models are evaluated periodically (generally, annually) to assess whether the combination of Investment Options within each Model should be changed to better seek to optimize the potential return for the level of risk tolerance intended for the Model. As a result of the periodic analysis, each Model may change and Investment Options may be added to a Model (including Investment Options not currently available), or Investment Options may be deleted from a Model.

When your Portfolio Optimization Model is updated, your Contract Value (and Subsequent Purchase Payments, if applicable) will automatically be reallocated in accordance with any changes to the Model you have selected. This means the allocation of your Contract Value, and potentially the Investment Options in which you are invested, will automatically change and your Contract Value (and Subsequent Purchase Payments, if applicable) will automatically be reallocated among the Investment Options in your updated Model (independently of any automatic rebalancing you may have selected). The Adviser requires that you grant it discretionary investment authority to periodically reallocate your Contract Value (and Subsequent Purchase Payments, if applicable) in accordance with the updated version of the Portfolio Optimization Model you have selected, if you wish to participate in Portfolio Optimization.

When the Adviser updates the Portfolio Optimizations Models, a written notice of the updated Models will be sent to participants at least 30 days in advance of the date the Adviser intends the updated version of the Model to be effective. You should carefully review these notices. If you wish to accept the changes in your selected Model, you will not need to take any action, as your Contract Value (or Subsequent Purchase Payments, if applicable) will automatically be reallocated in accordance with the updated Model. If you do not wish to accept the changes to your selected Model, you can change to a different Model or withdraw from the Portfolio Optimization service.

Selecting a Portfolio Optimization Model. If you choose to subscribe to the Portfolio Optimization service, you need to determine which Portfolio Optimization Model is best for you. Neither the Adviser nor its affiliates will make this decision. You should consult with your registered representative on this decision. Your registered representative can help you determine which Model is best suited to your financial needs, investment time horizon, and willingness to accept investment risk. You should periodically review these factors with your registered representative to determine if you should change Models to keep up with changes in your personal circumstances. Your registered representative can assist you in completing the proper forms to subscribe to the Portfolio Optimization service or to change to a different Model. You may, in consultation with your registered representative, utilize analytical tools made available by the Adviser, including an investor profile questionnaire, which asks questions intended to help you or your registered representative assess your financial needs, investment time horizon, and willingness to accept investment risk. Your responses can be analyzed using the service available on our website. While the information from our website may assist you, it is your decision, in consultation with your registered representative, to select a Model or to change to a different Model, and the Adviser and its affiliates bear no responsibility for this decision. You may change to a different Model at any time, subject to transfer and market timing restrictions, with a proper written request or by telephone or electronic instructions provided a valid telephone/electronic authorization is on file with us.

Periodic Reports. Participants in the Portfolio Optimization service will periodically be sent performance information regarding the Investment Options within a selected Model. This information may also be accessed online. Information concerning the current Models is described below.

Risks. Although the Models are designed to optimize returns given the various levels of risk, there is no assurance that a Model portfolio will not lose money or that investment results will not experience volatility. Investment performance of your Contract Value could be better or worse by participating in a Portfolio Optimization Model than if you had not participated. A Model may perform better or worse than any single Investment Option or asset class or other combinations of Investment Options or asset classes. Model performance is dependent upon the performance of the component Investment Options (and their underlying Portfolios). The timing of your investment and the frequency of automatic rebalancing may affect performance. Your Contract Value will fluctuate, and when redeemed, may be worth more or less than the original cost.

A Portfolio Optimization Model may not perform as intended. Although the Models are intended to optimize returns given various levels of risk tolerance, portfolio, market and asset class performance may differ in the future from the historical performance and assumptions upon which the Models are based, which could cause the Models to be ineffective or less effective in reducing volatility.

Periodic updating of the Portfolio Optimization Models can cause the underlying Portfolios to incur transactional expenses to raise cash for money flowing out of the Portfolios or to buy securities with money flowing into the Portfolios. These expenses can adversely affect performance of the pertinent Portfolios and the Models.

The Adviser may be subject to competing interests that have the potential to influence its decision making with regard to Portfolio Optimization. For example, one Portfolio may provide a higher advisory fee to the Adviser than another Portfolio, and provide the Adviser with incentive to use the Portfolio with the higher fee as part of a Portfolio Optimization Model. In addition, the Adviser may believe that certain Portfolios may benefit from additional assets or could be harmed by redemptions. As adviser to Pacific Select Fund, the Adviser monitors the Portfolios, and may, from time to time, recommend to the Pacific Select Fund’s Board of Trustees a change in portfolio management firm or strategy or the closure or merger of a Portfolio, all of which could impact a Model. All Pacific Select Fund Portfolios, except those expected to be liquidated or

merged, are analyzed by the independent third party analytical firm. The third party analytical firm determines the number of Portfolios in a Model, the percent that any Portfolio represents in a Model, and which Portfolios may be selected. The Adviser will work with the analytical firm to resolve any investment related matters derived from the analytical firm’s recommendations. The Adviser believes that its reliance on the recommendations of an independent third-party analytical firm to develop and update the Models (as described above) reduces or eliminates the potential for the Adviser to be influenced by these competing interests, but there can be no assurance of this.

The Adviser and its affiliates are under no contractual obligation to continue this service and have the right to terminate or change the Portfolio Optimization service at any time.

The Models. Information concerning the Portfolio Optimization Models is described below. These Models are available effective May 2, 2008. For information regarding the Portfolio Optimization Models available until May 2, 2008, see APPENDIX A in this Prospectus. You should review this information carefully with your registered representative before selecting or changing a Model.

Each time you allocate your Investment to a Variable Investment Option, your Contract is credited with a number of “Subaccount Units” in that Subaccount. The number of Subaccount Units credited is equal to the amount you have allocated to that Subaccount, divided by the “Unit Value” of one Unit of that Subaccount.


	Example: You allocate $600 to the Inflation Managed Subaccount. At the end of the Business Day on which your allocation is effective, the value of one Unit in the Inflation Managed Subaccount is $15. As a result, 40 Subaccount Units are credited to your Contract for your $600 ($600/$15 = 40).

After we credit your Contract with Subaccount Units, the value of those Units will usually fluctuate. This means that, from time to time, your Investment allocated to the Variable Investment Options may be worth more or less than the original Investments to which those amounts can be attributed. Fluctuations in Subaccount Unit Value will not change the number of Units credited to your Contract.

Subaccount Unit Values will vary in accordance with the investment performance of the corresponding Portfolio. For example, the value of Units in the Managed Bond Subaccount will change to reflect the performance of the Managed Bond Portfolio (including that Portfolio’s investment income, its capital gains and losses, and its expenses). Subaccount Unit Values are also adjusted to reflect the Administrative Fee and applicable Risk Charge imposed on the Separate Account.

We calculate the Unit Value of the Subaccount Units in each Variable Investment Option at the close of the New York Stock Exchange which usually closes at 4:00 p.m. Eastern Time on each Business Day. At the end of each Business Day, the Unit Value for a Subaccount is equal to:

The “Net Investment Factor” for a Subaccount for any valuation period is equal to:

Your initial Investment is effective on the day we issue your Contract. Any additional Investment is effective on the day we receive it in proper form. See the ADDITIONAL INFORMATION— Inquiries and Submitting Forms and Requests section in this Prospectus.

The day your Investment is effective determines the Unit Value at which Subaccount Units are attributed to your Contract. In the case of transfers or withdrawals, the effective day determines the Unit Value at which affected Subaccount Units are debited and/or credited under your Contract. That Unit Value is the value of the Subaccount Units next calculated after your transaction is effective. Your Variable Account Value begins to reflect the investment performance results of your new allocations on the day after your transaction is effective.

Transfers are allowed 30 days after the Contract Date. Currently, we are not enforcing this restriction but we reserve the right to enforce it in the future. Once your Investments are allocated to the Investment Options you selected, you may transfer your Account Value less Loan Account Value from any Investment Option to any other Investment Option. Transfers are limited to 25 for each calendar year. Only 2 transfers in any calendar month may involve any of the following Investment Options: International Value, International Small-Cap, International Large-Cap, or Emerging Markets. In addition, only 2 transfers into or out of the American Funds Growth or American Funds Growth-Income Investment Options may occur in any calendar month.

Transfers to or from a Variable Investment Option cannot be made before the seventh calendar day following the last transfer to or from the same Variable Investment Option. If the seventh calendar day is not a Business Day, then a transfer may not occur until the next Business Day. The day of the last transfer is not considered a calendar day for purposes of meeting this requirement. For example, if you make a transfer into the Diversified Research Variable Investment Option on Monday, you may not make any transfers to or from that Variable Investment Option before the following Monday. Transfers to or from the Money Market Variable Investment Option are excluded from this limitation.

For the purpose of applying the limitations, multiple transfers that occur on the same day are considered 1 transfer. A transfer of Account Value from the Loan Account back into your Investment Options following a loan repayment is not considered a transfer under these limitations. Transfers that occur as a result of the dollar cost averaging program, the portfolio rebalancing program, the earnings sweep program, approved corporate owned life insurance policy rebalancing programs or an approved asset allocation service are excluded from these limitations. Also, allocations of Purchase Payments are not subject to these limitations.

If you have used all 25 transfers available to you in a calendar year, you may no longer make transfers between the Investment Options until the start of the next calendar year. However, you may make 1 transfer of all or a portion of the Account Value remaining in the Variable Investment Options into the Money Market Investment Option prior to the start of the next calendar year.

There are no exceptions to the above transfer limitations in the absence of an error by us, a substitution of Investment Options, or reorganization of underlying Portfolios, or other extraordinary circumstances.

If we deny a transfer request, we will notify your registered representative via telephone. If you (or your registered representative) request a transfer via telephone that exceeds the above limitations, we will notify you (or your registered representative) immediately.

Certain restrictions apply to any available fixed option. See THE GENERAL ACCOUNT section in this Prospectus. Transfer requests are generally effective on the Business Day we receive them in proper form, unless you request a date in the future or a systematic transfer program.

We have the right, at our option (unless otherwise required by law), to require certain minimums in the future in connection with transfers. These may include a minimum transfer amount and a minimum Account Value, if any, for the Investment Option from which the transfer is made or to which the transfer is made. If your transfer request results in your having a remaining Account Value in an Investment Option that is less than $500 immediately after such transfer, we may transfer that Account Value to your other Investment Options on a pro rata basis, relative to your most recent allocation instructions.

We reserve the right (unless otherwise required by law) to limit the size of transfers, to restrict transfers, to require that you submit any transfer requests in writing, to suspend transfers, and to impose further limits on the number and frequency of

transfers you can make. We also reserve the right to reject any transfer request. Any policy we may establish with regard to the exercise of any of these rights will be applied uniformly to all Contract Owners.

The Contract is not designed to serve as a vehicle for frequent trading in response to short-term fluctuations in the market. Accordingly, organizations or individuals that use market-timing investment strategies and make frequent transfers should not purchase the Contract. Such frequent trading can disrupt management of the underlying Portfolios and raise expenses. The transfer limitations set forth above are intended to reduce frequent trading. In addition, we monitor certain large transaction activity in an attempt to detect trading that may be disruptive to the Portfolios. In the event transfer activity is found to be disruptive, certain future transactions by such Contract Owners, or by a registered representative or other party acting on behalf of one or more Contract Owners, will require preclearance. Frequent trading and large transactions that are disruptive to portfolio management can have an adverse effect on Portfolio performance and therefore your Contract’s performance. Such trading may also cause dilution in the value of the Investment Options held by long-term Contract Owners. While these issues can occur in connection with any of the underlying Portfolios, Portfolios holding securities that are subject to market pricing inefficiencies are more susceptible to abuse. For example, Portfolios holding international securities may be more susceptible to time-zone arbitrage which seeks to take advantage of pricing discrepancies occurring between the time of the closing of the market on which the security is traded and the time of pricing of the Portfolios.

Our policies and procedures which limit the number and frequency of transfers and which may impose preclearance requirements on certain large transactions are applied uniformly to all Contract Owners. However, there is a risk that these policies and procedures will not detect all potentially disruptive activity or will otherwise prove ineffective in whole or in part. Further, we and our affiliates make available to our variable annuity and variable life insurance Contract Owners underlying funds not affiliated with us. We are unable to monitor or restrict the trading activity with respect to shares of such funds not sold in connection with our Contracts. In the event the Board of Trustees/Directors of any underlying fund imposes a redemption fee or trading (transfer) limitations, we will pass them on to you.

We reserve the right to restrict, in our sole discretion and without prior notice, transfers initiated by a market timing organization or individual or other party authorized to give transfer instructions on behalf of multiple Contract Owners. Such restrictions could include:


	•	not accepting transfer instructions from a registered representative acting on behalf of more than one Contract Owner, and

	•	not accepting preauthorized transfer forms from market timers or other entities acting on behalf of more than one Contract Owner at a time.

We further reserve the right to impose, without prior notice, restrictions on transfers that we determine, in our sole discretion, will disadvantage or potentially hurt the rights or interests of other Contract Owners; or to comply with any applicable federal and state laws, rules and regulations.

Exchanges of Annuity Units in any Subaccount(s) to any other Subaccount(s) after the Annuity Date are limited to 4 in any 12-month period. See THE GENERAL ACCOUNT section in the Prospectus and THE CONTRACTS AND THE SEPARATE ACCOUNT section in the SAI.

We offer 3 systematic transfer options: dollar cost averaging, portfolio rebalancing, and earnings sweep. There is no charge for these options and transfers under these options are not counted towards your total transfers in a Calendar Year. However, they are subject to the same requirements and restrictions as non-systematic transfers. You can have only one dollar cost averaging or earnings sweep program in effect at one time. The systematic transfer options are not available after you annuitize.

Dollar cost averaging is a method in which you buy securities in a series of regular purchases instead of in a single purchase. This allows you to average the securities’ prices over time, and may permit a “smoothing” of abrupt peaks and drops in price. Prior to your Annuity Date, you may use dollar cost averaging to transfer amounts, over time, from any Investment Option with an Account Value of at least $5,000 to one or more Variable Investment Options. Each transfer must be for at least $250.

Currently, we are not enforcing the minimum Account Value and/or transfer amounts but we reserve the right to enforce such minimum amounts in the future. Transfers from the Fixed Option under the dollar cost averaging program are subject to a minimum duration of 12 months. Detailed information appears in the SAI.

You may instruct us to maintain a specific balance of Variable Investment Options under your Contract (e.g., 30% in the Equity Index Subaccount, 40% in the Managed Bond Subaccount, and 30% in the Growth LT Subaccount) prior to your Annuity Date. Periodically, we will “rebalance” your values in the elected Subaccounts to the percentages you have specified. Rebalancing may result in transferring amounts from a Subaccount earning a relatively higher return to one earning a relatively lower return. You may choose to have rebalances made quarterly, semi-annually or annually until your Annuity Date. Portfolio rebalancing is not available after you annuitize. Only Variable Investment Options are available for rebalancing. Detailed information appears in the SAI.

You may instruct us to make automatic periodic transfers of your earnings from the Money Market Subaccount or from the Fixed Option to one or more Variable Investment Options (other than the Money Market Subaccount). Detailed information appears in the SAI.

No sales charge is imposed on any Purchase Payment which means the entire amount of your Purchase Payment is allocated to the Investment Options you selected. Your Purchase Payments may, however, be subject to a withdrawal charge. This charge may apply to amounts you withdraw under your Contract prior to the Annuity Date, depending on the length of time each Purchase Payment has been invested and on the amount you withdraw. This amount is deducted proportionately among all Investment Options from which the withdrawal occurs. See the Choosing Your Annuity Option— Annuity Options section for withdrawal charges that may apply to redemptions after the Annuity Date. No withdrawal charge is imposed on:



	•	the free withdrawal amount (see WITHDRAWALS— Withdrawals Free of a Withdrawal Charge),



	•	amounts converted after the first Contract Year, if annuitized for at least 5 years, unless guaranteed variable annuity payments under Annuity Option 2 or 4 are subsequently redeemed (see the ANNUITIZATION AND DEATH BENEFITS—Choosing Your Annuity Option section in this Prospectus),



	•	payment of death benefit proceeds under the Contract for certain non-natural Owners,



	•	withdrawals by Owners to meet the minimum distribution rules for Qualified Contracts as they apply to amounts held under the Contract, or



	•	withdrawals after the first Contract Anniversary, if the last or sole Annuitant has been diagnosed with a medically determinable condition that results in a life expectancy of 12 months or less and we are provided with medical evidence satisfactory to us.

Transfers of all or part of your Account Value from one Investment Option to another are not considered a withdrawal of an amount from your Contract, so no withdrawal charge is imposed at the time of transfer. See the HOW YOUR INVESTMENTS ARE ALLOCATED— Transfers and Market-timing Restrictions and THE GENERAL ACCOUNT sections in this Prospectus.

The amount of the withdrawal charge depends on how long each Purchase Payment was held under your Contract. Each Purchase Payment you make is considered to have a certain “age,” depending on the length of time since that Purchase Payment was effective. A Purchase Payment is “one year old” or has an “age of one” from the day it is effective until the beginning of the day preceding your next Contract Anniversary. Beginning on the day preceding that Contract Anniversary, your Purchase Payment will have an “age of two” and increases in age on the day preceding each Contract Anniversary. When

you withdraw an amount subject to the withdrawal charge, the “age” of the Purchase Payment you withdraw determines the level of withdrawal charge as follows:

We calculate your withdrawal charge by assuming that amounts withdrawn are attributed to Purchase Payments first and in the order your Purchase Payments were received by us, then Earnings and before any deductions for other charges due or taxes are made. The withdrawal charge will be deducted proportionately among all Investment Options from which the withdrawal occurs. Unless you specify otherwise, a partial withdrawal amount requested will be processed as a “gross” amount, which means that applicable charges and taxes will be deducted from the requested amount. If a partial withdrawal amount is requested to be a “net” amount, applicable charges and taxes will be added to the requested amount and the withdrawal charges and taxes will be calculated on the grossed up amount.

Example: You make an initial Purchase Payment of $10,000 in Contract Year 1 and make an additional Purchase Payment of $7,000 in Contract Year 2. With Earnings, your Contract Value in Contract Year 3 is $19,000. In Contract Year 3 you make a withdrawal of $9,000. At this point, total Purchase Payments equal $17,000, Earnings equal $2,000, and the “age” of the applicable Purchase Payments withdrawn is 3 Years. 10% of all remaining Purchase Payments made ($1,700) may be withdrawn free of a withdrawal charge per Contract Year. The amount of the withdrawal charge applied would be $365 ($9,000-$1,700=$7,300; $7,300*5%=$365).

The withdrawal charge is designed to reimburse us for sales commissions and other expenses associated with the promotion and solicitation of offers for the Contracts, although our actual expenses may be greater or less than the amount of the withdrawal charge. See the ADDITIONAL INFORMATION— Distribution Arrangements section in this Prospectus for information regarding commissions and other amounts paid to broker-dealers in connection with distribution of the Contracts.

Depending on your state of residence (among other factors), a tax may be imposed on your Investments (“premium tax”) at the time your Investment is made, at the time of a partial or full withdrawal, at the time any death benefit proceeds are paid, at annuitization or at such other time as taxes may be imposed. Tax rates ranging from 0% to 3.5% are currently in effect, but may change in the future. Some local jurisdictions also impose a tax.

If we pay any premium taxes attributable to Investments, we will impose a similar charge against your Contract Value. Premium tax is subject to state requirements. We normally will charge you when you annuitize some or all of your Contract Value. We reserve the right to impose this charge for applicable premium taxes and/or other taxes when you make a full or partial withdrawal, at the time any death benefit proceeds are paid, or when those taxes are incurred. For these purposes, “premium taxes” include any state or local premium or retaliatory taxes and, where approval has been obtained, federal premium taxes and any federal, state or local income, excise, business or any other type of tax (or component thereof) measured by or based upon, directly or indirectly, the amount of Investments we have received. We will base this charge on the Contract Value, the amount of the transaction, the aggregate amount of Investments we receive under your Contract, or any other amount, that in our sole discretion we deem appropriate.

We may also charge the Separate Account or your Contract Value for taxes attributable to the Separate Account or the Contract, including income taxes attributable to the Separate Account or to our operations with respect to the Contract, or taxes attributable, directly or indirectly, to Investments. Currently, we do not impose any such charges.

We will charge you an Annual Fee of $30 on each Contract Anniversary prior to the Annuity Date, and at the time you withdraw your entire Net Contract Value (on a pro rated basis for that Contract Year) if your Net Contract Value is less than $50,000 on that date. The fee is not imposed on amounts you annuitize or on payment of death benefit proceeds. The fee

reimburses certain costs in administering the Contracts and the Separate Account. We do not intend to realize a profit from this fee. This fee is guaranteed not to increase for the life of your Contract.

Your Annual Fee will be charged proportionately against your Investment Options. Assessments against your Variable Investment Options are made by debiting some of the Subaccount Units previously credited to your Contract. That is, assessment of the Annual Fee does not change the Unit Value for those Subaccounts. Any portion of the Annual Fee we deduct from any of our fixed options (if available under the Contract) will not be greater than the annual interest credited in excess of that fixed option’s minimum guaranteed interest rate.

We may agree to waive or reduce charges under our Contracts, in situations where selling and/or maintenance costs associated with the Contracts are reduced, such as the sale of several Contracts to the same Contract Owner(s), sales of large Contracts, sales of Contracts in connection with a group or sponsored arrangement or mass transactions over multiple Contracts.

We will only waive or reduce such charges on any Contract where expenses associated with the sale or distribution of the Contract and/or costs associated with administering and maintaining the Contract are reduced. We reserve the right to terminate waiver and reduced charge programs at any time, including for issued Contracts.

We assess a charge against the assets of each Subaccount to compensate for certain mortality and expense risks that we assume under the Contract (the “Risk Charge”). The risk that an Annuitant will live longer (and therefore receive more annuity payments) than we predict through our actuarial calculations at the time the Contract is issued is “mortality risk.” We also bear mortality risk in connection with death benefit payable under the Contract. The risk that the expense charges and fees under the Contract and Separate Account are less than our actual administrative and operating expenses is called “expense risk.”

This Risk Charge is assessed daily at an annual rate equal to 1.25% of each Subaccount’s assets. This charge may not be increased for the duration of your Contract.

The Risk Charge will stop at the Annuity Date if you select fixed annuity payments. The base Risk Charge will continue after the Annuity Date if you choose variable annuity payments, even though we do not bear mortality risk if your Annuity Option is Period Certain Only.

We will realize a gain if the Risk Charge exceeds our actual cost of expenses and benefits, and will suffer a loss if such actual costs exceed the Risk Charge. Any gain will become part of our General Account. We may use it for any reason, including covering sales expenses on the Contracts.

We charge an Administrative Fee as compensation for costs we incur in operating the Separate Account, issuing and administering the Contracts, including processing applications and payments, and issuing reports to you and to regulatory authorities.

The Administrative Fee is assessed daily at an annual rate equal to 0.15% of the assets of each Subaccount. This rate is guaranteed not to increase for the life of your Contract. A correlation will not necessarily exist between the actual administrative expenses attributable to a particular Contract and the Administrative Fee paid in respect of that particular Contract. The Administrative Fee will continue after the Annuity Date if you choose any variable annuity. We do not intend to realize a profit from this fee.

Your Variable Account Value reflects advisory fees and other expenses incurred by the various Portfolios of the Funds, net of any applicable reductions and/or reimbursements. These fees and expenses may vary. Each Fund is governed by its own Board of Trustees, and your Contract does not fix or specify the level of expenses of any Portfolio. A Fund’s fees and expenses are described in detail in the applicable Fund Prospectus and SAI.

When you submit the application for your Contract, you must choose a sole Annuitant or Joint Annuitants. If you are buying a Qualified Contract, you must be the sole Annuitant. If you are buying a Non-Qualified Contract you may choose yourself and/or another person as Annuitant. Whether you have a sole or Joint Annuitants, you may choose a Contingent Annuitant. The Contingent Annuitant will not have any Contract benefits, including death benefit proceeds, until becoming the sole surviving Annuitant. You will not be able to add or change a sole or Joint Annuitant after your Contract is issued. However, if you are buying a Qualified Contract, you may add a Joint Annuitant on the Annuity Date. You will be able to add or change a Contingent Annuitant until your Annuity Date or the death of your sole Annuitant or both Joint Annuitants, whichever occurs first. However, once your Contingent Annuitant has become the Annuitant under your Contract, no additional Contingent Annuitant may be named. No Annuitant (Primary, Joint or Contingent) may be named upon or after reaching his or her 86^th birthday. We reserve the right to require proof of age or survival of the Annuitant(s).

Annuitization occurs on the Annuity Date when you convert your Contract from the accumulation phase to the annuitization (income) phase. You may choose both your Annuity Date and your Annuity Option. At the Annuity Date, you may elect to annuitize some or all of your Net Contract Value, less any applicable charge for premium taxes and/or other taxes, (the “Conversion Amount”), as long as such Conversion Amount annuitized is at least $10,000. We will send the annuity payments to the payee that you designate.

If you annuitize only a portion of this available Contract Value, you may have the remainder distributed, less any applicable charge for premium taxes and/or other taxes, any applicable withdrawal charge, and any Annual Fee. This option of distribution may or may not be available, or may be available for only certain types of contracts. Currently, we only allow this option on Qualified Contracts but we reserve the right to make it available on other contract types in the future. We will distribute your Net Contract Value, less any applicable charge for premium taxes, any applicable withdrawal charge, and any Annual Fee, to you in a single sum if the net amount of your Contract Value available to convert to an annuity is less than $10,000 on your Annuity Date. Currently, we are not enforcing this minimum but we reserve the right to enforce it in the future. Distributions under your Contract may have tax consequences. You should consult a qualified tax adviser for information on full or partial annuitization.

If you annuitize only a portion of your Net Contract Value on your Annuity Date, you may, at that time, have the option to elect not to have the remainder of your Contract Value distributed, but instead to continue your Contract with that remaining Contract Value (a “continuing Contract”). If this option is available, you would then choose a second Annuity Date for your continuing Contract, and all references in this Prospectus to your “Annuity Date” would, in connection with your continuing Contract, be deemed to refer to that second Annuity Date. The second Annuity Date may not be later than the date specified in the Choosing Your Annuity Date section of this Prospectus. This option may not be available, or may be available only for certain types of Contracts. You should be aware that some or all of the payments received before the second Annuity Date may be fully taxable. We recommend that you contact a qualified tax adviser for more information if you are interested in this option.

You should choose your Annuity Start Date when you submit your application or we will apply a default Annuity Date to your Contract. You may change your Annuity Date by notifying us in writing (or other form acceptable to us). We must receive your written notice at least ten Business Days prior to the earlier of your old Annuity Date or your new Annuity Date. Your Annuity Date cannot be earlier than your first Contract Anniversary.

If you have a sole Annuitant, your Annuity Date cannot be later than his or her 95^th birthday. If you have Joint Annuitants, your Annuity Date cannot be later than your younger Joint Annuitant’s 95^th birthday. In the case of certain trusts, the Annuity Date cannot be later than the Annuitant’s 100^th birthday. Different requirements may apply as required by any applicable state law or the Code. We may, at our sole discretion, allow you to extend your Annuity Date regardless of whether we may have granted any extensions to you or to any others in the past. We reserve the right, at any time, to not offer any extension to your Annuity Date. Some Broker/Dealers may not allow their clients to extend the Annuity Date beyond age 95.

If your Contract is a Qualified Contract, you may also be subject to additional restrictions. In order to meet the Code minimum distribution rules, your Required Minimum Distributions (RMDs) may begin earlier than your Annuity Date. For

instance, under Section 401 of the Code (for Qualified Plans) and Section 408 of the Code (for IRAs), the entire interest under the Contract must be distributed to the Owner/ Annuitant not later than the Owner/ Annuitant’s Required Beginning Date (“RBD”), or distributions over the life of the Owner/ Annuitant (or the Owner/ Annuitant and his Beneficiary) must begin no later than the RBD. For more information see the FEDERAL TAX ISSUES section in this Prospectus.

If you have a Non-Qualified Contract and you do not choose an Annuity Date when you submit your application, your Annuity Date will be your Annuitant’s 95^th birthday or your younger Joint Annuitant’s 95^th birthday, whichever applies. However some states’ laws may require a different Annuity Date. Certain Qualified plans may require distribution to occur at an earlier age.

If you have not specified an Annuity Option or do not instruct us otherwise, at your Annuity Date your Net Contract Value, less any charges for premium taxes and/or other taxes, will be annuitized (if this net amount is at least $10,000) as follows:


	•	the net amount from your Fixed Option Value will be converted into a fixed-dollar annuity,

	•	and the net amount from your Variable Account Value will be converted into a variable-dollar annuity directed to the Subaccounts proportionate to your Account Value in each.

If the net amount is less than $10,000, the entire amount will be distributed. If you have a Non-Qualified Contract, or if you have a Qualified Contract and are not married, your default Annuity Option will be Life with Ten Year Period Certain. If you have a Qualified Contract and you are married, your default Annuity Option will be Joint and Survivor Life with survivor payments of 50% and your spouse will automatically be named your Joint Annuitant.

You should carefully review the Annuity Options with a qualified tax adviser, and, for Qualified Contracts, reference should be made to the terms of the particular plan and the requirements of the Code for pertinent limitations regarding annuity payments, Required Minimum Distributions (“RMDs”), and other matters.

You may make three basic decisions about your annuity payments. First, you may choose whether you want those payments to be a fixed-dollar amount and/or a variable-dollar amount. Second, you may choose the form of annuity payments (see Annuity Options below). Third, you may decide how often you want annuity payments to be made (the “frequency” of the payments). You may not change these selections after the Annuity Date.

You may choose fixed annuity payments based on a fixed rate and the 1983a Annuity Mortality Table with the ages set back ten (10) years, variable annuity payments that vary with the Investment results of the Subaccounts you select, or you may choose both, converting one portion of the net amount you annuitize into fixed annuity payments and another portion into variable annuity payments.

If you select fixed annuity payments, each periodic annuity payment received will be equal to the initial annuity payment, unless you select a Joint and Survivor Life annuity with reduced survivor payments when the Primary Annuitant dies. Any net amount you convert to fixed annuity payments will be held in our General Account (but not under any fixed option).

If you select variable annuity payments, you may choose as many Variable Investment Options as you wish. The amount of the periodic annuity payments will vary with the investment results of the Variable Investment Options selected and may be more or less than a fixed payment option. After the Annuity Date, Annuity Units may be exchanged among available Variable Investment Options up to four times in any twelve-month period. How your Contract converts into variable annuity payments is explained in more detail in THE CONTRACTS AND THE SEPARATE ACCOUNT section in the SAI.

Four Annuity Options are currently available under the Contract, although additional options may become available in the future.



	2.	Life with Period Certain. Periodic payments are made to the designated payee during the Annuitant’s lifetime, with payments guaranteed for a specified period. You may choose to have payments guaranteed for anywhere from 5 through 30 years (in full years only).



	3.	Joint and Survivor Life. Periodic payments are made to the designated payee during the lifetime of the Primary Annuitant. After the death of the Primary Annuitant, periodic payments will continue to be made during the lifetime of the secondary Annuitant named in the election. You may choose to have the payments to the surviving secondary Annuitant equal 50%, 66 2/3% or 100% of the original amount payable made during the lifetime of the Primary Annuitant (you must make this election when you choose your Annuity Option). If you elect a reduced payment based on the life of the secondary Annuitant, fixed annuity payments will be equal to 50% or 66 2/3% of the original fixed payment payable during the lifetime of the Primary Annuitant; variable annuity payments will be determined using 50% or 66 2/3%, as applicable, of the number of Annuity Units for each Subaccount credited to the Contract as of the date of death of the Primary Annuitant. Payments stop when both Annuitants have died.



	4.	Period Certain Only. Periodic payments are made to the designated payee over a specified period. You may choose to have payments continue for anywhere from 5 through 30 years (in full years only).

Periodic payment amounts will differ based on the Annuity Option selected. Generally, the longer the possible payment period, the lower the payment amount.

Additionally, if variable payments are elected under Annuity Options 2 and 4, you may redeem all remaining guaranteed variable payments after the Annuity Date. Also, under Option 4, partial redemptions of remaining guaranteed variable payments after the Annuity Date are available. The amount available upon full redemption would be the present value of any remaining guaranteed variable payments at the assumed investment return, any applicable withdrawal charge will be deducted from the present value as if you made a full withdrawal, or if applicable, a partial withdrawal. For purposes of calculating the withdrawal charge and Free Withdrawal amount, it will be assumed that the Contract was never converted to provide annuity payments and any prior variable annuity payments in that Contract Year will be treated as if they were partial withdrawals from the Contract (see the CHARGES, FEES AND DEDUCTIONS—Withdrawal Charge section in this Prospectus). For example, assume that a Contract was issued with a single investment of $10,000 and in Contract Year 3 the Owner elects to receive variable annuity payments under Annuity Option 4. In Contract Year 4, the Owner elects to make a partial redemption of $5,000. The withdrawal charge as a percentage of the Purchase Payments with an age of 4 years is 3%. Assuming the Free Withdrawal amount immediately prior to the partial redemption is $200, the withdrawal charge for the partial redemption will be $144 (($5,000 – $200) * 3%). No withdrawal charge will be imposed on a redemption if:



	•	the Annuity Option is elected as the form of payments of death benefit proceeds, or


	•	the Annuitant dies before the period certain has ended and the Beneficiary requests a redemption of the variable annuity payments.

If the Annuitant dies before the guaranteed payments under Annuity Options 2 and 4 are completed, we will pay the remainder of the guaranteed payments to the first person among the following who is (1) living; or (2) an entity or corporation entitled to receive the remainder of the guaranteed payments:


	•	the Owner;

	•	the Joint Owner;

	•	the Contingent Owner;

	•	the Beneficiary; or

	•	the Contingent Beneficiary.

If none are living (or if there is no entity or corporation entitled to receive the remainder of the guaranteed payments), we will pay the remainder of the guaranteed payments to the Owner’s estate.

If the Owner dies on or after the Annuity Date, but payments have not yet been completed, then distributions of the remaining amounts payable under the Contract must be made at least as rapidly as the method of distribution that was being

used at the date of the Owner’s death. All of the Owner’s rights granted by the Contract will be assumed by the first among the following who is (1) living; or (2) an entity or corporation entitled to assume the Owner’s rights granted by the Contract:


	•	the Joint Owner;

	•	the Contingent Owner;

	•	the Beneficiary; or

	•	the Contingent Beneficiary.

If none are living (or if there is no entity or corporation entitled to assume the Owner’s rights granted by the Contract), all of the Owner’s rights granted by the Contract will be assumed by the Owner’s estate.

For Qualified Contracts, please refer to the Choosing Your Annuity Date section in this Prospectus. If your Contract was issued in connection with a Qualified Plan subject to Title I of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (“ERISA”), your spouse’s consent may be required when you seek any distribution under your Contract, unless your Annuity Option is Joint and Survivor Life with survivor payments of at least 50%, and your spouse is your Joint Annuitant.

You may choose to have annuity payments made monthly, quarterly, semi-annually, or annually. The amount of a variable payment will be determined in each period on the date corresponding to your Annuity Date, and payment will be made on the next succeeding day.

Your initial annuity payment must be at least $250. Depending on the net amount you annuitize, this requirement may limit your options regarding the period and/or frequency of annuity payments.

Your Contract contains tables that we use to determine the amount of the first annuity payment under your Contract, taking into consideration the annuitized portion of your Net Contract Value at the Annuity Date. This amount will vary, depending on the annuity period and payment frequency you select. This amount will be larger in the case of shorter Period Certain annuities and smaller for longer Period Certain annuities. Similarly, this amount will be greater for a Life Only annuity than for a Joint and Survivor Life annuity, because we will expect to make payments for a shorter period of time on a Life Only annuity. If you do not choose the Period Certain Only annuity, this amount will also vary depending on the age of the Annuitant(s) on the Annuity Date and, for some Contracts in some states, the sex of the Annuitant(s).

For fixed annuity payments, the guaranteed income factors in our tables are based on an annual interest rate of 3% and the 1983a Annuity Mortality Table with the ages set back 10 years. If you elect a fixed annuity, fixed annuity payments will be based on the periodic income factors in effect for your Contract on the Annuity Date which are at least the guaranteed income factors under the Contract.

For variable annuity payments, the tables are based on an assumed annual investment return of 5% and the 1983a Annuity Mortality Table with the ages set back 10 years. If you elect a variable annuity, your initial variable annuity payment will be based on the applicable variable annuity income factors in effect for your Contract on the Annuity Date which are at least the variable annuity income factors under the Contract. You may choose any other annuity option we may offer on the option’s effective date. A higher assumed investment return would mean a larger first variable annuity payment, but subsequent payments would increase only when actual net investment performance exceeds the higher assumed rate and would fall when actual net investment performance is less than the higher assumed rate. A lower assumed rate would mean a smaller first payment and a more favorable threshold for increases and decreases. If the actual net investment performance is a constant 5% annually, annuity payments will be level. The assumed investment return is explained in more detail in the SAI under THE CONTRACTS AND THE SEPARATE ACCOUNT.

Death benefit proceeds may be payable before the Annuity Date on proof of death of the sole surviving Annuitant or of any Contract Owner while the Contract is in force.

Any death benefit payable will be calculated on the “Notice Date”, which is the day on which we receive, in proper form, proof of death and instructions regarding payment of death benefit proceeds. If a Contract has multiple recipients, death benefit

proceeds will be calculated when we first receive proof of death and instructions, in proper form, from any recipient. The death benefit proceeds still remaining to be paid to other recipients will fluctuate with the performance of the underlying Investment Options.

Death benefit proceeds will be payable on the Notice Date. Such proceeds will be reduced by any charge for premium taxes and/or other taxes and any Contract Debt. The death benefit proceeds may be payable in a single sum, as an Annuity Option available under the Contract, towards the purchase of any other Annuity Option we then offer, or in any other manner permitted by the IRS and approved by us. The Owner’s spouse may continue the Contract (see the Death Benefits— Spousal Continuation section of this Prospectus). In addition, there may be legal requirements that limit the recipient’s Annuity Options and the timing of any payments. A recipient should consult a qualified tax adviser before making a death benefit election.

The Contract is intended to comply with all applicable provisions of Code Section 72(s) and any successor provision, as deemed necessary by us to qualify the Contract as an annuity contract for federal income tax purposes. If an Owner of a Non-Qualified Contract dies before the Annuity Date, distribution of the death benefit proceeds must begin within 1 year after the Owner’s death or complete distribution within 5 years after the Owner’s death. In order to satisfy this requirement, the designated recipient must receive a final lump sum payment by the fifth anniversary of the death of the Contract Owner, or elect to receive an annuity for life or over a period that does not exceed the life expectancy of the designated recipient with annuity payments that start within 1 year after the Owner’s death or, if permitted by the IRS, elect to receive a systematic distribution over a period not exceeding the beneficiary’s life expectancy using a method that would be acceptable for purposes of calculating the minimum distribution required under section 401(a)(9) of the Code. If an election to receive an annuity is not made within 60 days of our receipt of proof, in proper form, of the Owner’s death or, if earlier, 60 days (or shorter period as we permit) prior to the first anniversary of the Owner’s death, the lump sum option will be deemed elected, unless otherwise required by law. If the lump sum option is deemed elected, we will consider that deemed election as receipt of instructions regarding payment of the death benefit proceeds. If a Non-Qualified Contract has Joint Owners, this requirement applies to the first Contract Owner to die.

The Owner may designate that the Beneficiary will receive death benefit proceeds through annuity payments for life or life with Period Certain. The Owner must designate the payment method in writing in a form acceptable to us. The Owner may revoke the designation only in writing and only in a form acceptable to us. Once the Owner dies, the Beneficiary cannot revoke or modify the Owner’s designation.

The Death Benefit Amount as of the Notice Date and prior to the Annuity Date is equal to the greater of:


	•	your Contract Value as of that day, or

	•	your aggregate Purchase Payments, reduced by any applicable charges and fees, and further reduced by an amount for each withdrawal that is calculated by multiplying the aggregate Purchase Payments received by the ratio of the amount of each withdrawal, including applicable withdrawal charges, to the Contract Value immediately prior to each withdrawal.

The actual Guaranteed Minimum Death Benefit (GMDB) Amount will be calculated only when a death benefit becomes payable as a result of the death of the sole Annuitant, or the first death of an Owner who is also an Annuitant, and is determined as follows: We look at the Contract as of the first Contract Anniversary and as of every subsequent Contract Anniversary prior to the Annuity Date, that is, the 1^st, 2^nd, 3^rd, etc., until the earlier of:


	•	the date the Annuitant reaches his or her 81^st birthday,

	•	the date of the Annuitant’s death, or

	•	the Annuity Date, (each of these Anniversaries is a “Milestone Date”).


	•	add the aggregate amount of any Purchase Payments received by us after that Milestone Date,

	•	subtract an amount for each withdrawal that is calculated by multiplying that Death Benefit Amount before the withdrawal by the ratio of the amount of each withdrawal that has occurred since that Milestone Date, including applicable withdrawal charges, to the Contract Value immediately prior to each withdrawal, and

	•	subtract the aggregate amount of any previous charges, fees, and/or taxes effected since that Milestone Date.

The highest of these adjusted Death Benefit Amounts, as of the Notice Date, is the GMDB Amount. Calculations of any actual Guaranteed Minimum Death Benefit are only made once death benefit proceeds become payable under your Contract.

Generally, a sole designated recipient who is the Owner’s spouse may elect to become the Owner (and sole Annuitant if the deceased Owner had been the Annuitant) and continue the Contract until the earliest of the spouse’s death, the death of the Annuitant, or the Annuity Date, except in the case of a Qualified Contract issued under section 403 of the Code. On the Notice Date, if the surviving spouse is deemed to have continued the Contract, we will set the Contract Value equal to the death benefit proceeds that would have been payable to the spouse as the deemed Beneficiary/ designated recipient of the death benefit proceeds (“Add-In Amount”). The Add-In Amount will be added to the Contract Value on the Notice Date. There will not be an adjustment to the Contract Value if the Contract Value is equal to or greater than the death benefit proceeds as of the Notice Date. The Add-In Amount will be allocated among Investment Options in accordance with the current allocation instructions for the Contract and may be, under certain circumstances, considered earnings. A Joint or Contingent Owner who is the designated recipient, but not the Owner’s spouse, may not continue the Contract.

Example: On the Notice Date, the Owner’s surviving spouse elects to continue the Contract. On that date, the death benefit proceeds were $100,000 and the Contract Value was $85,000. Since the surviving spouse elected to continue the Contract in lieu of receiving the death benefit proceeds, we will increase the Contract Value by an Add-In Amount of $15,000 ($100,000-$85,000=$15,000). If the Contract Value on the Notice Date was $100,000 or higher, then nothing would be added to the Contract Value.

Under Internal Revenue Service regulations and our administrative procedures, if the Contract is owned under a Qualified Plan as defined in Sections 401, 403, 457(b) or Sections 408, or 408A of the Code and the Annuitant dies before the Required Beginning Date, the payment of any death benefit proceeds must be made to the designated recipient in accordance with one of two rules. One rule generally requires the death benefit proceeds to commence distribution by December 31 of the calendar year following the calendar year of the Annuitant’s death and continue over the life of his or her Beneficiary (the “life expectancy method”). The second rule requires distribution of the entire death benefit proceeds no later than December 31 of the calendar year in which the fifth anniversary of the Annuitant’s death falls (the “five-year rule”).

However, the life expectancy method and the five-year rule are modified if the sole primary Beneficiary is a surviving spouse. If the surviving spouse elects to continue the Contract and not do an eligible rollover to an IRA or another existing eligible plan in his or her name, then he or she will be subject to the five-year rule. However, the surviving spouse may waive the five-year requirement and elect to take distributions over his or her life expectancy, and if the surviving spouse elects to defer the commencement of required distributions beyond the first anniversary of the Annuitant’s death, the surviving spouse will be deemed to continue the Contract. In this instance, the surviving spouse may defer required distributions until the later of:


	•	December 31 of the year following the year the Annuitant died, or

	•	December 31 of the year in which the deceased Annuitant would have turned 70 1/2.

Further, under our administrative procedures, if the required distributions election is not received by us in good order by December 31 of the year following the Annuitant’s death or by December 31 of the year in which the Annuitant would have attained age 70 1/2, the lump sum option will be deemed by us to have been elected, unless otherwise required by law. If the lump sum option is deemed elected, we will treat that deemed election as receipt of instructions regarding payment of death benefit proceeds.

If the Annuitant dies after the commencement of RMDs (except in the case of a Roth IRA when RMDs do not apply) but before the Annuitant’s entire interest in the Contract (other than a Roth IRA) has been distributed, the remaining interest in

the Contract must be distributed to the designated recipient at least as rapidly as under the distribution method in effect at the time of the Annuitant’s death.

If the sole surviving Annuitant or the first Owner who is also an Annuitant dies on or before the first Contract Anniversary, or if the Annuitant had already reached his or her 81^st birthday as of the first Contract Anniversary, the death benefit proceeds will be equal to the Death Benefit Amount as of the Notice Date. For Non-Natural Owners, the Death Benefit proceeds will be payable on proof of death of the first Annuitant.

If the sole surviving Annuitant or the first Owner who is also an Annuitant dies prior to the Annuity Date but after the first Contract Anniversary, and had not yet reached his or her 81^st birthday as of the first Contract Anniversary, the death benefit proceeds will be equal to the greater of:


	•	the Death Benefit Amount as of the Notice Date, or

	•	the GMDB Amount as of the Notice Date.

If the Annuitant who is not an Owner dies, the designated sole Annuitant will then be the first living person in the following order and no death benefit proceeds will be payable:

If there is no surviving Joint or Contingent Annuitant, the death benefit proceeds will be payable to the first living person in the following order:

If none are living, the death benefit proceeds will be payable to the Owner’s Estate.

If the Owner is not an Annuitant and the Owner and Annuitant die simultaneously, the death benefit proceeds will be paid to the first living person in the following order:

If none are living, the death benefit proceeds will be payable to the Owner’s Estate

If a Contract Owner who is not an Annuitant dies before the Annuity Date, the death benefit proceeds will be equal to the Death Benefit Amount as of the Notice Date and will be paid in accordance with the Death Benefit Proceeds section above. The death benefit proceeds will be paid to the first living person in the following order:


	•	Joint Owner,

	•	Contingent Owner,

	•	Beneficiary, or

	•	Contingent Beneficiary.

If none are living, death benefit proceeds will be paid to the Owner’s estate.

If a Contract Owner who is an Annuitant dies before the Annuity Date, the amount of the death benefit will be equal to the greater of your Death Benefit Amount or the GMDB Amount as of the Notice Date and will be paid in accordance with the Death Benefit Proceeds section above.

You may, on or prior to your Annuity Date, withdraw all or a portion of the amount available under your Contract, so long as any of your Annuitants are still living. You may surrender your Contract and make a full withdrawal at any time. If you surrender your Contract it will be terminated as of the Effective Date of the withdrawal. Beginning 30 days after your Contract Date, you also may make partial withdrawals from your Investment Options at any time. Currently, we are not requiring the 30-day waiting period on partial withdrawals, but we reserve the right to require the 30-day waiting period on partial withdrawals in the future. You may request to withdraw a specific dollar amount or a specific percentage of an Account Value or your Net Contract Value. You may choose to make your withdrawal from specified Investment Options. If you do not specify Investment Options, your withdrawal will be made from all of your Investment Options proportionately. Each partial withdrawal must be for $500 or more. Pre-authorized partial withdrawals must be at least $250, except for pre-authorized withdrawals distributed by Electronic Funds Transfer (EFT), which must be at least $100. If your partial withdrawal from an Investment Option would leave a remaining Account Value in that Investment Option of less than any minimum Account Value we may require in the future, we also reserve the right, at our option, to transfer that remaining amount to your other Investment Options on a proportionate basis relative to your most recent allocation instructions. If your partial withdrawal leaves you with a Net Contract Value of less than $1,000, or if your partial withdrawal request is for an amount exceeding the amount as described in the Amount Available for Withdrawal section below, we have the right, at our option, to terminate your Contract and send you the withdrawal proceeds. Partial withdrawals from the Fixed Option in any Contract Year may be subject to restrictions.

The amount available for withdrawal is your Net Contract Value (Contract Value less Contract Debt) at the end of the Business Day on which your withdrawal request is effective, less any applicable Annual Fee, withdrawal charge, and any charge for premium taxes and/or other taxes. The amount we send to you (your “withdrawal proceeds”) will also reflect any adjustment for federal and state income tax withholding. See the FEDERAL TAX ISSUES and THE GENERAL ACCOUNT sections in this Prospectus.

You assume investment risk on Purchase Payments in the Subaccounts. As a result, the amount available to you for withdrawal from any Subaccount may be more or less than the total Purchase Payments you have allocated to that Subaccount.

Subject to the amount available for withdrawal provisions as described above, we will not impose a withdrawal charge on your withdrawal to the extent that total withdrawals that are free of charge during the Contract Year do not exceed 10% of the sum of your remaining Purchase Payments at the beginning of the Contract Year that have been held under your Contract for less than six years plus additional Purchase Payments applied to your Contract during that Contract Year. Our calculations of the withdrawal charge deduct this “free 10%” from your “oldest” Purchase Payment that is still otherwise subject to the charge. For purposes of determining the free withdrawal amounts, withdrawal of mandatory required minimums from certain Qualified Plans are included within the calculations.

See the Choosing Your Annuity Option — Annuity Options section for Free Withdrawal amounts that apply to redemptions after the Annuity Date.

Qualified Contracts have special restrictions on withdrawals. For purposes of determining the free withdrawal amounts, withdrawal of mandatory required minimums from certain Qualified Contracts are included within the calculations. For additional information, see Special Restrictions Under Qualified Plans below. For those Contracts issued to a Charitable Remainder Trust (CRT), the amount available for withdrawal free of withdrawal charges during a Contract Year includes all eligible Purchase Payments plus all earnings even if all Purchase Payments have not been deemed withdrawn.

If your Contract Value is at least $5,000, you may select the pre-authorized withdrawal option, and you may choose monthly, quarterly, semi-annual or annual withdrawals. Currently, we are not enforcing the minimum Contract Value amount but we reserve the right to enforce the minimum amount in the future. Each withdrawal must be for at least $250, except for withdrawals distributed by Electronic Funds Transfer (EFT), which must be at least $100. Each pre-authorized withdrawal is subject to federal income tax on its taxable portion and may be subject to a tax penalty of 10% if you have not reached age 59 1/2. Pre-authorized withdrawals cannot be used to continue the Contract beyond the Annuity Date. See the FEDERAL TAX ISSUES and THE GENERAL ACCOUNT sections in this Prospectus. Additional information and options are set forth in the SAI.

If you wish to withdraw the entire amount available under your Contract, you must either return your Contract to us or sign and submit a Withdrawal Request form or a Lost Contract Affidavit if no Withdrawal Request form is completed.

Qualified Plans may have additional rules regarding withdrawals from a Contract purchased under such a Plan. In general, if your Contract was issued under certain Qualified Plans, you may not withdraw amounts attributable to contributions made pursuant to a salary reduction agreement (as defined in Section 402(g)(3)(A) of the Code) or to transfers from a custodial account (as defined in Section 403(b)(7) of the Code) except in cases of your:


	•	severance from employment,

	•	death,

	•	disability as defined in Section 72(m)(7) of the Code,

	•	reaching age 59 1/2, or

	•	hardship as defined for purposes of Section 401 of the Code.

These limitations do not affect certain rollovers or exchanges between Qualified Plans, and do not apply to rollovers from these Qualified Plans to an individual retirement account or individual retirement annuity. In the case of a 403(b) plan, these limitations do not apply to certain salary reduction contributions made, and investment results earned, prior to dates specified in the Code.

Hardship withdrawals under the exception provided above are restricted to amounts attributable to salary reduction contributions, and do not include investment results. This additional restriction does not apply to salary reduction contributions made, or investment results earned, prior to dates specified in the Code.

Certain distributions, including rollovers, may be subject to mandatory withholding of 20% for federal income tax and to a tax penalty of 10% if the distribution is not transferred directly to the trustee of another Qualified Plan, or to the custodian of an individual retirement account or issuer of an individual retirement annuity. See the FEDERAL TAX ISSUES section in this Prospectus. Distributions may also trigger withholding for state income taxes. The tax and ERISA rules relating to withdrawals from Contracts issued to Qualified Plans are complex. We are not the administrator of any Qualified Plan. You should consult your qualified tax adviser and/or your Plan Administrator before you withdraw any portion of your Contract Value.

Withdrawal requests are normally effective on the Business Day we receive them in proper form. If you make Purchase Payments by check and submit a withdrawal request immediately afterwards, payment of your withdrawal proceeds may be delayed until we receive confirmation in our Annuities administrative office that your check has cleared.

All withdrawals, including pre-authorized withdrawals, will generally have federal income tax consequences, which could include tax penalties. You should consult with a qualified tax adviser before making any withdrawal or selecting the pre-authorized withdrawal option. See the FEDERAL TAX ISSUES section in this Prospectus.

You may return your Contract for cancellation and a refund during your Free Look period. Your Free Look period is usually the 10-day period beginning on the day you receive your Contract, but may vary if required by state law. The amount of your refund may be more or less than the Purchase Payments you’ve made. If you return your Contract and it is post-marked during the Free Look period, it will be cancelled as of the date we receive your Contract. In most states, you will then receive a refund of your Contract Value, based upon the next determined Accumulated Unit Value (AUV) after we receive your Contract for cancellation, plus a refund of any amounts that may have been deducted as Contract fees and charges.

In some states we are required to refund your Purchase Payments. If your Contract was issued in such a state and you cancel your Contract during the Free Look period, we will return the greater of your Purchase Payments or the Contract Value. In addition, if your Contract was issued as an IRA and you return your Contract within 7 days after you receive it, we will return the greater of your Purchase Payments (less any withdrawals made) or the Contract Value.

Your Purchase Payments are allocated to the Investment Options you indicated on your application, unless otherwise required by state law. If state law requires that your Purchase Payments must be allocated to Investment Options different than you requested, we will comply with state requirements. At the end of the Free Look period, we will allocate your Purchase Payments based on your allocation instructions.

See the ADDITIONAL INFORMATION — State Considerations section of this Prospectus.

For replacement business and in some states, the Free Look period may be extended and the amount returned may be different than as otherwise described above. Please consult with your registered representative if you have any questions regarding your state’s Free Look period and the amount of any refund.

You will find a complete description of the Free Look period and amount to be refunded that applies to your Contract on the Contract’s cover page, or on a notice that accompanies your Contract.

If your Contract is issued in exchange for another annuity contract or a life insurance policy, our administrative procedures may vary, depending on the state in which your Contract is issued.

Pacific Life Insurance Company is a life insurance company domiciled in Nebraska. Along with our subsidiaries and affiliates, our operations include life insurance, annuity, pension and institutional products, mutual funds, broker-dealer operations, and investment advisory services. At the end of 2007, we had $207.5 billion of individual life insurance in force and total admitted assets of approximately $96.6 billion.

We are authorized to conduct our life insurance and annuity business in the District of Columbia and in all states except New York. Our executive office is located at 700 Newport Center Drive, Newport Beach, California 92660.

We were originally organized on January 2, 1868, under the name “Pacific Mutual Life Insurance Company of California” and reincorporated as “Pacific Mutual Life Insurance Company” on July 22, 1936. On September 1, 1997, we converted from a mutual life insurance company to a stock life insurance company ultimately controlled by a mutual holding company and were authorized by California regulatory authorities to change our name to Pacific Life Insurance Company. On September 1, 2005, Pacific Life changed from a California corporation to a Nebraska corporation. Pacific Life is a subsidiary of Pacific LifeCorp, a holding company, which, in turn, is a subsidiary of Pacific Mutual Holding Company, a mutual holding company. Under their respective charters, Pacific Mutual Holding Company must always hold at least 51% of the outstanding voting stock of Pacific LifeCorp, and Pacific LifeCorp must always own 100% of the voting stock of Pacific Life. Owners of Pacific Life’s annuity contracts and life insurance policies have certain membership interests in Pacific Mutual Holding Company, consisting principally of the right to vote on the election of the Board of Directors of the mutual holding company and on other matters, and certain rights upon liquidation or dissolutions of the mutual holding company.

Our subsidiary, Pacific Select Distributors, Inc. (PSD) serves as the principal underwriter (distributor) for the Contracts. PSD is located at 700 Newport Center Drive, Newport Beach, California 92660. We and PSD enter into selling agreements with broker-dealers, whose registered representatives are authorized by state insurance departments to sell the Contracts.

We may provide you with reports of our ratings both as an insurance company and as to our claims-paying ability with respect to our General Account assets.

Separate Account B was established on September 25, 1996 as a separate account of Pacific Life, and is registered with the SEC under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the “1940 Act”), as a type of investment company called a “unit investment trust.”

Obligations arising under your Contract are our general corporate obligations. We are also the legal owner of the assets in the Separate Account. Assets of the Separate Account attributed to the reserves and other liabilities under the Contract and other contracts issued by us that are supported by the Separate Account may not be charged with liabilities arising from any of our other business; any income, gain or loss (whether or not realized) from the assets of the Separate Account are credited to or charged against the Separate Account without regard to our other income, gain or loss.

We may invest money in the Separate Account in order to commence its operations and for other purposes, but not to support contracts other than variable annuity contracts. A portion of the Separate Account’s assets may include accumulations of charges we make against the Separate Account and investment results of assets so accumulated. These additional assets are ours and we may transfer them to our General Account at any time; however, before making any such transfer, we will consider any possible adverse impact the transfer might have on the Separate Account. Subject to applicable law, we reserve the right to transfer our assets in the Separate Account to our General Account.

The Separate Account is not the sole investor in the Funds. Investment in a Fund by other separate accounts in connection with variable annuity and variable life insurance contracts may create conflicts. See the accompanying Prospectus and SAI for the Funds for more information.

The table below is designed to help you understand how the Variable Investment Options have performed. It shows the value of a Subaccount Unit at the beginning and end of each period, as well as the number of Subaccount Units at the end of each period. A Subaccount Unit is also called an Accumulation Unit.

You should read the table in conjunction with the financial statements for Separate Account B, which are included in its annual report dated as of December 31, 2007.

The following summary of federal income tax issues is based on our understanding of current tax laws and regulations, which may be changed by legislative, judicial or administrative action. The summary is general in nature and is not intended as tax advice. Moreover, it does not consider any applicable foreign, state or local tax laws. We do not make any guarantee regarding the tax status, federal, foreign, state or local, of any Contract or any transaction involving the Contracts. Accordingly, you should consult a qualified tax adviser for complete information and advice before purchasing a Contract. Additional tax information is included in the SAI.

Section 817(h) of the Code provides that the investments underlying a variable annuity must satisfy certain diversification requirements in order for the contract to be treated as an annuity contract and qualify for tax deferral. We believe the underlying Variable Investment Options for the contract meet these requirements. Details on these diversification requirements appear in the Pacific Select Fund SAI.

In addition, for a variable annuity contract to qualify for tax deferral, assets in the separate accounts supporting the contract must be considered to be owned by the insurance company and not by the contract owner. Under current U.S. tax law, if a contract owner has excessive control over the investments made by a separate account, or the underlying fund, the contract owner will be taxed currently on income and gains from the account or fund. In other words, in such a case of investor control the contract owner would not derive the tax benefits normally associated with variable annuities. For more information regarding investor control, please refer to the contract SAI.

Section 72 of the Code governs the taxation of annuities in general, and we designed the Contracts to meet the requirements of Section 72 of the Code. We believe that, under current law, the Contract will be treated as an annuity for federal income tax purposes if the Contract Owner is a natural person or an agent for a natural person, and that we (as the issuing insurance company), and not the Contract Owner(s), will be treated as the owner of the investments underlying the Contract. Accordingly, no tax should be payable by you as a Contract Owner as a result of any increase in Contract Value until you receive money under your Contract. You should, however, consider how amounts will be taxed when you do receive them. The following discussion assumes that your Contract will be treated as an annuity for federal income tax purposes.

These general rules apply to Non-Qualified Contracts. As discussed below, however, tax rules may differ for Qualified Contracts and you should consult a qualified tax adviser if you are purchasing a Qualified Contract.

A Contract Owner is not taxed on the increases in the value of a Contract until an amount is received or deemed to be received. An amount could be received or deemed to be received, for example, if there is a partial distribution, a lump sum distribution, an Annuity payment or a material change in the Contract. Increases in Contract Value that are received or deemed to be received are taxable to the Contract Owner as ordinary income. Distributions of net investment income or capital gains that each Subaccount receives from its corresponding Portfolio are automatically reinvested in such Portfolio unless we, on behalf of the Separate Account, elect otherwise. As noted above, you will be subject to federal income taxes on the investment income from your Contract only when it is distributed to you.

If a contract is not owned or held by a natural person or as agent for a natural person, the contract generally will not be treated as an “annuity” for tax purposes, meaning that the contract owner will be subject to current tax on annual increases in Contract Value at ordinary income rates unless some other exception applies. Certain entities, such as some trusts, may be deemed to be acting as agents for natural persons. Corporations, including S corps, C corps, LLCs, partnerships and FLPs, and tax exempt entities are non natural persons that will not be deemed to be acting as agents for natural persons.

Amounts you withdraw before annuitization, including amounts withdrawn from your Contract Value in connection with partial withdrawals for payment of any charges and fees, will be treated first as taxable income to the extent that your Contract Value exceeds the aggregate of your Investments (reduced by non-taxable amounts previously received), and then as non-taxable recovery of your Investments. Therefore, you include in your gross income the smaller of: a) the amount of the partial withdrawal, or b) the amount by which your Contract Value (determined without considering any surrender charge) immediately before you receive the distribution exceeds your Investment in the Contract at that time. If at the time of a partial withdrawal your Contract Value does not exceed your Investment in the Contract, then the withdrawal will not be includable in gross income and will simply reduce your Investment.

Exceptions to this rule are distributions in full discharge of your Contract (a full surrender) or distributions from contracts issued and investments made before August 14, 1982. The assignment or pledge of (or agreement to assign or pledge) the value of the Contract for a loan will be treated as a withdrawal subject to these rules. You should consult your tax adviser for additional information regarding taking a partial or a full distribution from your Contract.

Multiple Non-Qualified Contracts that are issued after October 21, 1988, by us or our affiliates to the same Owner during the same calendar year are treated as one Contract for purposes of determining the taxation of distributions (the amount includible in gross income under Code Section 72(e)) prior to the Annuity Date from any of the Contracts. A Contract received in a tax-free exchange under Code Section 1035 may be treated as a new Contract for this purpose. For Contracts subject to the Aggregation Rule, the values of the Contracts and the Investments in the Contracts should be added together to determine the taxation under Code Section 72(e). Withdrawals will be treated first as withdrawals of income until all of the income from all such Contracts is withdrawn. The Treasury Department has specific authority under Code Section 72(e)(11) to issue regulations to prevent the avoidance of the income-out-first rules for withdrawals prior to the Annuity Date through the serial purchase of Contracts or otherwise. As of the date of this Prospectus there are no regulations interpreting these aggregation provisions.

The Code provides that the taxable portion of a withdrawal or other distribution may be subject to a tax penalty equal to 10% of that taxable portion unless the withdrawal is:


	•	made on or after the date you reach age 59 1/2,

	•	made by a Beneficiary after your death,

	•	attributable to your becoming disabled,


	•	any payment made under an immediate annuity,



	•	attributable to an investment in the Contract made prior to August 14, 1982, or



	•	any distribution that is a part of a series of substantially equal periodic payments (Code Section 72q payments) made (at least annually) over your life (or life expectancy) or the joint lives (or life expectancies) of you and your designated beneficiary.

Additional exceptions may apply to certain Qualified Contracts (see the Taxes Payable on Annuity Payments and the applicable Qualified Contracts sections of this Prospectus).

After you annuitize, a portion of each annuity payment you receive under a Contract generally will be treated as a partial recovery of Investments (as used here, “Investments” means the aggregate Investments less any amounts that were previously received under the Contract but not included in income) and will not be taxable. (In certain circumstances, subsequent modifications to an initially-established payment pattern may result in the imposition of a penalty tax.) The remainder of each annuity payment will be taxed as ordinary income. However, after the full amount of aggregate Investments has been recovered, the full amount of each annuity payment will be taxed as ordinary income. Exactly how an annuity payment is divided into taxable and non-taxable portions depends on the period over which annuity payments are expected to be received,

which in turn is governed by the form of annuity selected and, where a lifetime annuity is chosen, by the life expectancy of the Annuitant(s) or payee(s). Such a payment may also be subject to a tax penalty.

Generally, the same tax rules apply to amounts received by the Beneficiary as those that apply to the Contract Owner, except that the early withdrawal penalty tax does not apply. Thus, any annuity payments or lump sum withdrawal will be divided into taxable and non-taxable portions.

If within sixty days after the date on which a lump sum death benefit first becomes payable and the Beneficiary elects to receive annuity or life expectancy payments in lieu of the lump sum death benefit, then the Beneficiary will not be treated for tax purposes as having received the lump sum death benefit in the tax year it first becomes payable. Rather, in that case, the Beneficiary will be taxed on the annuity or life expectancy payments as they are received.

If death occurs after the Annuity Date, but before the expiration of a period certain option, the Beneficiary will recover the balance of the Investments as payments are made and may be allowed a deduction on the final tax return for the unrecovered Investments. A lump sum payment taken by the Beneficiary in lieu of remaining monthly annuity payments is not considered an annuity payment for tax purposes. The portion of any lump sum payment to a Beneficiary in excess of aggregate unrecovered Investments would be subject to income tax.

For additional information on death benefit payouts, see the Death Benefits - Nonqualified Contract Distribution Rules section of this Prospectus.

Generally, any amount payable to a Beneficiary after the Contract Owner’s death, whether before or after the Annuity Date, will be included in the estate of the Contract Owner for federal estate tax purposes. If the inclusion of the value of the Contract triggers a federal estate tax to be paid, the Beneficiary may be able to use a deduction called Income in Respect of Decedent (IRD) in calculating the income taxes payable upon receipt of the death benefit proceeds. In addition, designation of a non-spouse Beneficiary who either is 37 1/2 or more years younger than a Contract Owner or is a grandchild of a Contract Owner may have Generation Skipping Transfer Tax (GSTT) consequences under section 2601 of the Code. You should consult with a qualified tax advisor if you have questions about IRD or GSTT.

Generally, gifts of Non-Qualified Contracts prior to the annuity start date will trigger tax reporting to the donor on the gain on the Contract, with the donee getting a stepped-up basis for the amount included in the donor’s income. The 10% early withdrawal tax penalty and gift tax also may be applicable. This provision does not apply to transfers between spouses or incident to a divorce, or transfers to and from a trust acting as agent for the Owner or the Owner’s spouse.

Unless you elect to the contrary, any amounts you receive under your Contract that are attributable to investment income will be subject to withholding to meet federal income tax obligations. For nonperiodic distributions, you will have the option to provide us with withholding information at the time of your withdrawal request. If you do not provide us with withholding information, we will generally withhold 10% of the taxable distribution amount and remit it to the IRS. For periodic (annuity) payments, the rate of withholding will be determined on the basis of the withholding information you provide to us with your application. If you do not provide us with withholding information, we are required to determine the withholding, from every annuity payment, as if you are a married person with 3 exemptions.

Certain states have indicated that pension and annuity withholding will apply to payments made to residents. Generally, an election out of federal withholding will also be considered an election out of state withholding.

Please call 1-800-722-4448 with any questions about the required withholding information. Registered Representatives may call us at 1-800-722-2333.

Taxable distributions to Contract Owners who are non-resident aliens or other non U.S. persons are generally subject to U.S. federal income tax withholding at a 30% rate, unless a lower treaty rate applies. Prospective foreign owners are advised to consult with a tax advisor regarding the U.S., state and foreign tax treatment of a Contract.

You may make your initial or an additional Investment through an exchange of an existing annuity contract or endowment life insurance contract pursuant to Section 1035 of the Code (a 1035 exchange). The exchange can be effected by completing the Transfer/Exchange form, indicating in the appropriate section of the form that you are making a 1035 exchange and submitting any applicable state replacement form. The form is available by calling your Registered Representative or by calling our Contract Owner number at 1-800-722-4448. Registered Representatives can call 1-800-722-2333. Once completed, the form should be mailed to us, along with the annuity contract or life insurance policy you are exchanging. If you are making an initial Investment, a completed Contract application should also be attached.

In general terms, Section 1035 of the Code provides that no gain or loss is recognized when you exchange one annuity or life insurance contract for another annuity contract. Transactions under Section 1035, however, may be subject to special rules and may require special procedures and record keeping, particularly if the exchanged annuity contract was issued prior to August 14, 1982. You should consult your tax adviser prior to effecting a 1035 exchange.

Rev. Proc. 2008-24 adopted the provisions of Notice 2003-51, with some modifications, finalizing the guidelines for partial 1035 exchanges. Under Rev. Proc. 2008-24, the 24 month period is reduced to 12 months, so that a partial exchange will be treated as tax-free under Code Section 1035 if there are no distributions within 12 months of the partial 1035 exchange. Alternatively, a partial 1035 exchange will be treated as tax-free under Code Section 1035 if the taxpayer demonstrates that any distribution taken within the 12 months is due to a specifically identified condition that occurred between the date of the partial transfer and the distribution (the conditions are death, disability, attaining age 59 1/2, divorce or loss of employment). Rev Proc. 2008-24 removes the subjective element of Notice 2003-51 (whether the distribution was contemplated at the time of the partial exchange). Also, Rev. Proc. 2008-24 provides that if the partial exchange does not qualify as a tax-free exchange under Code Section 1035, it will be treated as a taxable distribution with a subsequent repurchase, and that if the partial exchange is treated as tax-free under Code Section 1035 and this Rev. Proc., the two contracts will not be aggregated and treated as one contract, but rather will be treated as two separate contracts for tax and penalty purposes.

In general, in the case of Non-Qualified Contracts, if you are an individual and expect to accumulate your Contract Value over a relatively long period of time without making significant withdrawals, there may be federal income tax advantages in purchasing such a Contract. This is because any increase in Contract Value is not subject to current taxation. Income taxes are deferred until the money is withdrawn, at which point taxation occurs only on the gain from the investment in the Contract. With income taxes deferred, you may accumulate more money over the long term through a variable annuity than you may through non-tax-deferred investments. The advantage may be greater if you decide to liquidate your Contract Value in the form of monthly annuity payments after your retirement, or if your tax rate is lower at that time than during the period that you held the Contract, or both.

When withdrawals or distributions are taken from the variable annuity, the gain is taxed as ordinary income. This may be a potential disadvantage because money that had been invested in other types of assets may qualify for a more favorable federal tax rate. For example, the tax rate applicable both to the sale of capital gain assets held more than 1 year and to the receipt of qualifying dividends by individuals is generally 15% (5% for lower-income individuals). In contrast, an ordinary income tax rate of up to 35% applies to taxable withdrawals on distributions from a variable annuity. Also, withdrawals or distributions taken from a variable annuity may be subject to a tax penalty equal to 10% of the taxable portion, although exceptions to the tax penalty may apply.

An owner of a variable annuity cannot deduct or offset losses on transfers to or from Subaccounts, or at the time of any partial withdrawals. If you surrender your Contract and your Net Contract Value is less than the aggregate of your Investments in the Contract (reduced by any previous non-taxable distributions), there may be a deductible ordinary income loss, although the deduction may be limited. Consult with your tax adviser regarding the impact of federal income taxes on your specific situation.

Although the Separate Account is registered as an investment company, it is not a separate taxpayer for purposes of the Code. The earnings of the Separate Account are taxed as part of our operations. No charge is made against the Separate Account for our federal income taxes (excluding the charge for premium taxes), but we will review, periodically, the question of charges to the Separate Account or your Contract for such taxes. Such a charge may be made in future years for any federal income taxes that would be attributable to the Separate Account or to our operations with respect to your Contract, or attributable, directly or indirectly, to Investments on your Contract.

Under current law, we may incur state and local taxes (in addition to premium taxes) in several states. At present, these taxes are not significant and they are not charged against the Contract or the Separate Account. If there is a material change in applicable state or local tax laws, the imposition of any such taxes upon us that are attributable to the Separate Account or to our operations with respect to your Contract may result in a corresponding charge against the Separate Account or your Contract.

Given the uncertainty of future changes in applicable federal, state or local tax laws, we cannot appropriately describe the effect a tax law change may have on taxes that would be attributable to the Separate Account or your Contract.

The Contracts are available to a variety of Qualified Plans and IRAs. Tax restrictions and consequences for Contracts under each type of Qualified Plan and IRAs differ from each other and from those for Non-Qualified Contracts. No attempt is made herein to provide more than general information about the use of the Contract with the various types of Qualified Plans and IRAs. Participants under such Qualified Plans, as well as Contract Owners, Annuitants and Beneficiaries, are cautioned that the rights of any person to any benefits under such Qualified Plans may be subject to the terms and conditions of the Plans themselves or limited by applicable law, regardless of the terms and conditions of the Contract issued in connection therewith.

It is important to know that Qualified Plans such as 401(k)s, as well as IRAs, are already tax-deferred. Therefore, an annuity contract should be used to fund an IRA or Qualified Plan to benefit from the annuity’s features other than tax deferral. The other benefits of using a variable annuity to fund a Qualified Plan or an IRA include the lifetime income options, guaranteed death benefit options and the ability to transfer among investment options without sales or withdrawal charges. You should consider if the Contract is a suitable investment if you are investing through a Qualified Plan or IRA.

Generally, amounts received from Qualified Contracts are taxed as ordinary income under Section 72, to the extent that they are not treated as a tax free recovery of after tax contributions. Different rules apply for Roth IRAs. Consult your tax advisor before requesting a distribution from a Qualified Contract.

Generally, distributions from IRAs and Qualified Plans that occur before you attain age 59 1/2 are subject to a 10% tax penalty imposed on the amount of the distribution that is includable in gross income, with certain exceptions. These exceptions include distributions:



	•	made to a beneficiary after the owner’s/participant’s death,



	•	attributable to the owner/participant becoming disabled under Section 72(m)(7),



	•	that are part of a series of substantially equal periodic payments (also referred to as SEPPs or 72(t) payments) made (at least annually) over your life (or life expectancy) or the joint lives (or joint life expectancies) of you and your designated beneficiary,



	•	for certain higher education expenses (IRAs only),



	•	used to pay for certain health insurance premiums or medical expenses (IRAs only),



	•	for costs related to the purchase of your first home (IRAs only), and



	•	(except for IRAs) made to an employee after separation from service after reaching age 55 (or age 50 in the case of a qualified public safety employee).

Distributions from a Contract under a Qualified Plan (not including an individual retirement annuity subject to Code Section 408 or Code Section 408A) to an employee, surviving spouse, or former spouse who is an alternate payee under a qualified domestic relations order, in the form of a lump sum settlement or periodic annuity payments for a fixed period of fewer than 10 years are subject to mandatory income tax withholding of 20% of the taxable amount of the distribution, unless:



	•	the distributee directs the transfer of such amounts in cash to another Qualified Plan or a traditional IRA, or



	•	the payment is a minimum distribution required under the Code.

The taxable amount is the amount of the distribution less the amount allocable to after-tax contributions. All other types of taxable distributions are subject to withholding unless the distributee elects not to have withholding apply.

The regulations provide that you cannot keep assets in Qualified Plans or IRAs indefinitely. Eventually they are required to be distributed; at that time (the Required Beginning Date (RBD)), Required Minimum Distributions (RMDs) are the amount that must be distributed each year.

Under Section 401 of the Code (for Qualified Plans) and Section 408 of the Code (for IRAs), the entire interest under the Contract must be distributed to the Owner/ Annuitant no later than the Owner/ Annuitant’s RBD, or distributions over the life of the Owner/ Annuitant (or the Owner/ Annuitant and his beneficiary) must begin no later than the RBD.

The RBD for distributions from a Qualified Contract maintained for an IRA under Section 408 of the Code is generally April 1 of the calendar year following the year in which the Owner/ Annuitant reaches age 70 1/2. The RBD for a Qualified Contract maintained for a qualified retirement or pension plan under Section 401 of the Code or a Section 403(b) annuity is April 1 of the calendar year following the later of the year in which the Owner/ Annuitant reached 70 1/2, or, if the plan so provides, the year in which the Owner/ Annuitant retires. There is no RBD for a Roth IRA maintained pursuant to Section 408A of the Code.

The IRS issued Final and Temporary Regulations on April 17, 2002 (“Final Regulations”). Effective January 1, 2003, the IRS requires that all IRA holders and Qualified Plan Participants (with one exception discussed below) use the Uniform Lifetime Table to calculate their RMDs.

The Uniform Lifetime Table is based on a joint life expectancy and uses the IRA owner’s actual age and assumes that the beneficiary is 10 years younger than the IRA owner. Note that under these Final Regulations, the IRA owner does not need to actually have a named beneficiary when they turn 70 1/2.

The exception noted above is for an IRA owner who has a spouse, who is more than 10 years younger, as the sole beneficiary on the IRA. In that situation, the spouse’s actual age (and life expectancy) will be used in the joint life calculation.

If the Owner/Annuitant dies prior to his RBD or complete distribution from the Qualified Contract, the remainder shall be distributed as provided in the “Qualified Contract Distribution Rules” section of this Prospectus. For non-spouse beneficiaries, life expectancy is initially computed by use of the Single Life Table of the Final Regulations (Regulation Section 1.401(a)(9)-9). Subsequent life expectancy shall be calculated by reducing the life expectancy of the Beneficiary by one in each following calendar year.

For calendar year 2003 and thereafter, taxpayers (and the underlying Qualified Plan) must rely on the Final and Temporary Regulations (discussed above) for determining RMDs. If any future guidance from the IRS is more restrictive than the guidance in these Final and Temporary Regulations, the future guidance will be issued without retroactive effect.

The method of distribution selected must comply with the minimum distribution rules of Code Section 401(a)(9), and the applicable proposed Regulations thereunder.

In accordance with recent changes in laws and regulations, RMDs may be calculated based on the sum of the contract value and the actuarial value of any additional death benefits and benefits from optional riders that you have purchased under the Contract. As a result, RMDs may be larger than if the calculation were based on the contract value only, which may in turn

result in an earlier (but not before the required beginning date) distribution under the Contract and an increased amount of taxable income distributed to the contract owner, and a reduction of death benefits and the benefits of any optional riders.

Under the Final Regulations, for retirement plans that qualify under Section 401 or 408 of the Code, the period elected for receipt of RMDs as annuity payments under Annuity Options 2 and 4 generally may be:



	•	no longer than the joint life expectancy of the Annuitant and Beneficiary in the year that the Annuitant reaches age 70 1/2, and



	•	must be shorter than such joint life expectancy if the Beneficiary is not the Annuitant’s spouse and is more than 10 years younger than the Annuitant.

Under Annuity Option 3, if the Beneficiary is not the Annuitant’s spouse and is more than 10 years younger than the Annuitant, the 66 2/3% and 100% elections specified below may not be available. The restrictions on options for retirement plans that qualify under Sections 401 and 408 also apply to a retirement plan that qualifies under Section 403(b) with respect to amounts that accrued after December 31, 1986.

Certain Owners of Qualified Contracts may borrow against their Contracts. Otherwise loans from us are not permitted. You may request a loan from us, using your Contract Value as your only security if yours is a Qualified Contract that is:



	•	not subject to Title 1 of ERISA,



	•	issued under Section 403(b) of the Code, and



	•	permits loans under its terms (a “Loan Eligible Plan”).

You may have only one loan outstanding at any time. The minimum loan amount is $1,000, subject to certain state limitations. Your Contract Debt at the effective date of your loan may not exceed the lesser of:



	•	50% of your Contract Value, or



	•	$50,000 less your highest outstanding Contract Debt during the 12-month period immediately preceding the effective date of your loan.

If your request for a loan is processed, you will be charged interest on your Contract Debt at a fixed annual rate equal to 5%. The amount held in the Loan Account to secure your loan will earn a return equal to an annual rate of 3%. This loan rate may vary by state.

Interest charges accrue on your Contract Debt daily, beginning on the effective date of your loan. Interest earned on the Loan Account Value accrue daily beginning on the day following the effective date of the loan, and those earnings will be transferred once a year to your Investment Options in accordance with your most recent allocation instructions. For more information about loans, including the consequences of loans, loan procedures, loan terms and repayment terms, see the SAI.

We may change these loan provisions to reflect changes in the Code or interpretations thereof. We urge you to consult with a qualified tax adviser prior to effecting any loan transaction under your Contract.

The following is only a general discussion about types of IRAs and Qualified Plans for which the Contracts are available. We are not the administrator of any Qualified Plan. The plan administrator and/or custodian, whichever is applicable, (but not us) is responsible for all Plan administrative duties including, but not limited to, notification of distribution options, disbursement of Plan benefits, handling any processing and administration of Qualified Plan loans, compliance regulatory requirements and federal and state tax reporting of income/ distributions from the Plan to Plan participants and, if applicable, Beneficiaries of Plan participants and IRA contributions from Plan participants. Our administrative duties are limited to administration of the Contract and any disbursements of any Contract benefits to the Owner, Annuitant, or Beneficiary of the Contract, as applicable. Our tax reporting responsibility is limited to federal and state tax reporting of income/ distributions to the applicable payee and IRA contributions from the Owner of a Contract, as recorded on our books and records. The Qualified Plan (the plan administrator or the custodian) is required to provide us with information regarding individuals with signatory authority on the Contract(s) owned. If you are purchasing a Qualified Contract, you

should consult with your plan administrator and/or a qualified tax adviser. You should also consult with a qualified tax adviser and/or plan administrator before you withdraw any portion of your Contract Value.

In addition to “traditional” IRAs established under Code 408, there are SEP IRAs under Code Section 408(k), Roth IRAs governed by Code Section 408A and SIMPLE IRAs established under Code Section 408(p). Also, Qualified Plans under Section 401, 403(b), or 457(b) of the Code that include after-tax employee contributions may be treated as deemed IRAs subject to the same rules and limitations as traditional IRAs. Contributions to each of these types of IRAs are subject to differing limitations. The following is a very general description of each type of IRA and other Qualified Plans.

Traditional IRAs are subject to limitations on the amount that may be contributed each year, the persons who may be eligible to contribute, when rollovers are available and when distributions must commence. Depending upon the circumstances of the individual, contributions to a traditional IRA may be made on a deductible or non-deductible basis.

Annual contributions are generally allowed for persons who have not attained age 70 1/2 and who have compensation (as defined by the IRS) of at least the contribution amount. Distributions of minimum amounts specified by the Code must commence by April 1 of the calendar year following the calendar year in which you attain age 70 1/2. Failure to make mandatory minimum distributions may result in imposition of a 50% tax penalty on any difference between the required distribution amount and the amount actually distributed. Additional distribution rules apply after your death.

You (or your surviving spouse if you die) may rollover funds (such as proceeds from existing insurance policies, annuity contracts or securities) from certain existing Qualified Plans into your traditional IRA if those funds are in cash. This will require you to liquidate any value accumulated under the existing Qualified Plan. Mandatory withholding of 20% may apply to any rollover distribution from your existing Qualified Plan if the distribution is not transferred directly to your traditional IRA. To avoid this withholding you should have cash transferred directly from the insurance company or plan trustee to your traditional IRA.

The Savings Incentive Match Plan for Employees of Small Employers (“SIMPLE Plan”) is a type of IRA established under Code Section 408(p)(2). Depending upon the SIMPLE Plan, employers may make plan contributions into a SIMPLE IRA established by each participant of the SIMPLE Plan. Like other IRAs, a 10% tax penalty is imposed on certain distributions that occur before an employee attains age 59 1/2. In addition, the tax penalty is increased to 25% for amounts received or rolled to another IRA or Qualified Plan during the 2-year period beginning on the date an employee first participated in a qualified salary reduction arrangement pursuant to a SIMPLE Plan maintained by their employer. Contributions to a SIMPLE IRA will generally include employee salary deferral contributions and employer contributions. Distributions from a SIMPLE IRA may be transferred to another SIMPLE IRA tax free or may be eligible for tax free rollover to a traditional IRA, a 403(b), a 457(b) or other Qualified Plan after the required 2-year period.

A Simplified Employee Pension (SEP) is an employer sponsored retirement plan under which an employer is allowed to make contributions toward their employees’ retirement, as well as their own retirement (if the employer is self-employed). A SEP is a type of IRA established under Code Section 408(k). Under a SEP, a separate IRA account called a SEP-IRA is set up by or for each eligible employee and the employer makes the contribution to the account. Like other IRAs, a 10% tax penalty is imposed on certain distributions that occur before an employee attains age 59 1/2.

Section 408A of the Code permits eligible individuals to establish a Roth IRA. Contributions to a Roth IRA are not deductible, but withdrawals of amounts contributed and the earnings thereon that meet certain requirements are not subject to federal income tax. In general, Roth IRAs are subject to limitations on the amount that may be contributed and the persons who may be eligible to contribute and are subject to certain required distribution rules on the death of the Contract Owner. Unlike a traditional IRA, Roth IRAs are not subject to minimum required distribution rules during the Contract Owner’s lifetime. Generally, however, the amount remaining in a Roth IRA must be distributed by the end of the fifth year after the death of the Contract Owner/ Annuitant or distributed over the life expectancy of the Designated Beneficiary. The owner of a traditional

IRA may convert a traditional IRA into a Roth IRA under certain circumstances. The conversion of a traditional IRA to a Roth IRA will subject the amount of the converted traditional IRA to federal income tax. Anyone considering the purchase of a Qualified Contract as a Roth IRA or a “conversion” Roth IRA should consult with a qualified tax adviser.

In accordance with recent changes in laws and regulations, at the time of either a full or partial conversion from a Traditional IRA annuity to a Roth IRA annuity, the determination of the amount to be reported as income will be based on the annuity contract’s “fair market value”, which will include all front-end loads and other non-recurring charges assessed in the 12 months immediately preceding the conversion, and the actuarial present value of any additional contract benefits.

Employees of certain tax-exempt organizations, such as public schools or hospitals, may defer compensation through an eligible plan under Code Section 403(b). Salary deferral amounts received from employers for these employees are excludable from the employees’ gross income (subject to maximum contribution limits). Distributions under these Contracts must comply with certain limitations as to timing, or result in tax penalties. Distributions from amounts contributed to a TSA pursuant to a salary reduction arrangement, may be made from a TSA only upon attaining age 59 1/2, severance from employment, death, disability, or financial hardship. Section 403(b) annuity distributions can be rolled over to other Qualified Plans in a manner similar to those permitted by Qualified Plans that are maintained pursuant to Section 401 of the Code.

In accordance with Code Section 403(b) and final regulations published on July 26, 2007 (“Final Regulations”), as of January 1, 2009 (or earlier if we or your 403(b) employer has entered into an agreement pursuant to the Final Regulations), we are required to provide information regarding loans or hardship distributions from your Contract to your 403(b) employer or an agent of your 403(b) employer, upon request. In addition, prior to processing your request for a loan, a hardship distribution or a rollover, we are required to verify certain information about you with your 403(b) employer (or if applicable, former 403(b) employer).

Certain employees of governmental entities or tax exempt employers may defer compensation through an eligible plan under Code section 457(b). Contributions to a Contract of an eligible plan are subject to limitations. Subject to plan provisions and a qualifying triggering event, assets in a Section 457(b) plan established by a governmental entity may be transferred or rolled into an IRA or another Qualified Plan, if the Qualified Plan allows the transfer or rollover. If a rollover to an IRA is completed, the assets become subject to IRA rules, including the 10% penalty on distributions prior to age 59 1/2. Assets from other plans may be rolled into a governmental 457(b) plan if the 457(b) plan allows the rollover and if the investment provider is able to segregate the assets for tax reporting purposes. Consult both the distributing plan and the receiving plan prior to making this election. Assets in a 457(b) plan set up by a tax exempt employer may not be rolled to a different type of Qualified Plan or IRA at any time.

Qualified Plans may be established by an employer for certain eligible employees under Section 401 of the Code. These plans may be 401(k) plans, profit-sharing plans, or other pension or retirement plans. Contributions to these plans are subject to limitations. Rollover to other eligible plans may be available. Please consult your Qualified Plans Summary Plan description for more information.

We are the legal owner of the shares of the Portfolios held by the Subaccounts. We may vote on any matter voted on at shareholders’ meetings of the Funds. However, our current interpretation of applicable law requires us to vote the number of shares attributable to your Variable Account Value (your “voting interest”) in accordance with your directions.

We will pass proxy materials on to you so that you have an opportunity to give us voting instructions for your voting interest. You may provide your instructions by proxy or in person at the shareholders’ meeting. If there are shares of a Portfolio held by a Subaccount for which we do not receive timely voting instructions, we will vote those shares in the same proportion as all other shares of that Portfolio held by that Subaccount for which we have received timely voting instructions. If we do not receive any voting instructions for the shares in a Separate Account, we will vote the shares in that Separate Account in the same proportion as the total votes for all of our separate accounts for which we’ve received timely instructions. If we hold

shares of a Portfolio in our General Account, we will vote such shares in the same proportion as the total votes cast for all of our separate accounts, including Separate Account B. We will vote shares of any Portfolio held by our non-insurance affiliates in the same proportion as the total votes for all separate accounts of ours and our insurance affiliates. As a result of proportional voting, the votes cast by a small number of Contract Owners may determine the outcome of a vote.

We may elect, in the future, to vote shares of the Portfolios held in Separate Account B in our own right if we are permitted to do so through a change in applicable federal securities laws or regulations, or in their interpretation.

The number of Portfolio shares that form the basis for your voting interest is determined as of the record date set by the Board of Trustees of the Fund. It is equal to:


	•	your Contract Value allocated to the Subaccount corresponding to that Portfolio, divided by

	•	the net asset value per share of that Portfolio.

Fractional votes will be counted. We reserve the right, if required or permitted by a change in federal regulations or their interpretation, to amend how we calculate your voting interest.

After your Annuity Date, if you have selected a variable annuity, the voting rights under your Contract will continue during the payout period of your annuity, but the number of shares that form the basis for your voting interest, as described above, will decrease throughout the payout period.

Transfer of Contract ownership may involve federal income tax and/or gift tax consequences; you should consult a qualified tax adviser before effecting such a transfer. A change to or from joint Contract ownership is considered a transfer of ownership. If your Contract is Non-Qualified, you may change Contract ownership at any time while the Annuitant is living and prior to your Annuity Date. You may name a different Owner or add or remove a Joint Owner or Contingent Owner. A Contract cannot name more than two Contract Owners (either as Joint or Contingent Owners) at any time. Any newly-named Contract Owners, including Joint and/or Contingent Owners, must be under the age of 86 at the time of change or addition. If there are Joint Owners, the Contract will be owned as Joint Tenants With Right of Survivorship and not as Tenants in Common. The Contract Owner(s) may make all decisions regarding the Contract, including making allocation decisions and exercising voting rights. Transactions under a Contract with Joint Owners require approval from both Owners.

If your Contract is Qualified under Code Sections 401 or 457(b), the Qualified Plan must be the sole Owner of the Contract and the ownership cannot be changed unless and until a triggering event has been met under the terms of the Qualified Plan. Upon such event, the ownership can only be changed to the Annuitant. If your Contract is Qualified under Code Sections 408 and 403(b), you must be the sole Owner of the Contract and no changes can be made.

Your sole Annuitant cannot be changed, and Joint Annuitants cannot be added or changed, once your Contract is issued. Certain changes may be permitted in connection with Contingent Annuitants. See the ANNUITIZATION AND DEATH BENEFITS— Selecting Your Annuitant section in this Prospectus. There may be limited exceptions for certain Qualified Contracts.

Your Beneficiary is the person(s) or entity who may receive death benefit proceeds under your Contract or any remaining annuity payments after the Annuity Date if the Annuitant or Owner dies. You may change or remove your Beneficiary or add Beneficiaries at any time prior to the death of the Annuitant or Owner, as applicable. Any change or addition will generally take effect only when we receive all necessary documents, in proper form, at our Service Center and we record the change or addition. Any change or addition will not affect any payment made or any other action taken by us before the change or addition was received and recorded.

Spousal consent may be required to change the Beneficiary of an IRA. If you have named your Beneficiary irrevocably, you will need to obtain that Beneficiary’s consent before making any changes. Qualified Contracts may have additional restrictions on naming and changing Beneficiaries. If your Contract was issued in connection with a Qualified Plan subject to Title I of ERISA, contact your Plan Administrator for details. We require that Contracts issued under Code Sections 401 and 457(b)

name the Plan as Beneficiary. If you leave no surviving Beneficiary or Contingent Beneficiary, your estate will receive any death benefit proceeds under your Contract.

If, in the judgment of our management, continued investment by Separate Account B in one or more of the Portfolios becomes unsuitable or unavailable, we may seek to alter the Variable Investment Options available under the Contracts. We do not expect that a Portfolio will become unsuitable, but unsuitability issues could arise due to changes in investment policies, market conditions, tax laws, or due to marketing or other reasons.

Alterations of Variable Investment Options may take differing forms. We reserve the right to substitute shares of any Portfolio that were already purchased under any Contract (or shares that were to be purchased in the future under a Contract) with shares of another Portfolio, shares of another investment company or series of another investment company, or another investment vehicle. We may also purchase, through a Subaccount, other securities for other series or other classes of contracts, and may permit conversions or exchanges between series or classes of contracts on the basis of Contract Owner requests. Required approvals of the SEC and state insurance regulators will be obtained before any such substitutions are effected, and you will be notified of any planned substitution.

We may add new Subaccounts to Separate Account B and any new Subaccounts may invest in Portfolios of a Fund or in other investment vehicles. Availability of any new Subaccounts to existing Contract Owners will be determined at our discretion. We will notify you, and will comply with the filing or other procedures established by applicable state insurance regulators, to the extent required by applicable law. We also reserve the right, after receiving any required regulatory approvals, to do any of the following:


	•	cease offering any Subaccount;

	•	combine Subaccounts;

	•	delete or substitute Subaccounts;

	•	combine Separate Account B or part of it with another of our separate accounts or with any of our affiliates’ separate accounts;

	•	transfer Separate Account B assets attributable to the Contracts to another of our separate accounts;

	•	deregister the Separate Account under the 1940 Act;

	•	operate Separate Account B as a management investment company under the 1940 Act or another form permitted by law;

	•	establish a committee, board or other group to manage aspects of the Separate Account’s operations;

	•	make any changes required by the 1940 Act or other federal securities laws;

	•	make any changes necessary to maintain the status of the Contracts as annuities under the Code;

	•	make other changes required under federal or state law relating to annuities; and

	•	suspend or discontinue sale of the Contracts.

Investments after your initial Investment, loan requests, transfer requests, loan repayments and withdrawal requests we receive before the close of the New York Stock Exchange, which usually closes at 4:00 p.m. Eastern time, will normally be effective at the end of the same Business Day that we receive them in “proper form,” unless the transaction or event is scheduled to occur on another day. Generally, whenever you submit any other form, notice or request, your instructions will be effective on the next Business Day after we receive them in “proper form” unless the transaction or event is scheduled to occur on another day. “Proper form” means in a form satisfactory to us and may require, among other things, a signature guarantee or other verification of authenticity. We do not generally require a signature guarantee unless it appears that your signature may have changed over time or the signature does not appear to be yours; or an executed application or confirmation of application, as applicable, in proper form is not received by us; or, to protect you or us. Requests regarding death benefit proceeds must be accompanied by both proof of death and instructions regarding payment satisfactory to us. You should call your registered representative or us if you have questions regarding the required form of a request.

You are automatically entitled to make certain transactions by telephone or, to the extent available, electronically. You may also authorize other people to make certain transaction requests by telephone or, to the extent available, electronically by so indicating on the application or by sending us instructions in writing in a form acceptable to us. We cannot guarantee that you or any other person you authorize will always be able to reach us to complete a telephone or electronic transaction; for example, all telephone lines may be busy or access to our website may be unavailable during certain periods, such as periods of substantial market fluctuations or other drastic economic or market change, or telephones or the Internet may be out of service or unavailable during severe weather conditions or other emergencies. Under these circumstances, you should submit your request in writing (or other form acceptable to us). Transaction instructions we receive by telephone or electronically before the close of the New York Stock Exchange, which usually closes at 4:00 p.m. Eastern time, on any Business Day will usually be effective at the end of that day, and we will provide you confirmation of each telephone or electronic transaction.

We have established procedures reasonably designed to confirm that instructions communicated by telephone or electronically are genuine. These procedures may require any person requesting a telephone or electronic transaction to provide certain personal identification upon our request. We may also record all or part of any telephone conversation with respect to transaction instructions. We reserve the right to deny any transaction request made by telephone or electronically. You are authorizing us to accept and to act upon instructions received by telephone or electronically with respect to your Contract, and you agree that, so long as we comply with our procedures, neither we, any of our affiliates, nor any Fund, or any of their directors, trustees, officers, employees or agents will be liable for any loss, liability, cost or expense (including attorneys’ fees) in connection with requests that we believe to be genuine. This policy means that so long as we comply with our procedures, you

will bear the risk of loss arising out of the telephone or electronic transaction privileges of your Contract. If a Contract has Joint Owners, each Owner may individually make telephone and/or electronic transaction requests.

Subject to availability, you may authorize us to provide Prospectuses, statements, and other information (“documents”) electronically by so indicating on the application, via telephone, or by sending us instructions in writing in a form acceptable to us to receive such documents electronically. You must provide us with a current and active e-mail address and have Internet access to use this service. While we impose no additional charge for this service, there may be potential costs associated with electronic delivery, such as on-line charges. Documents will be available on our Internet website. You may access and print all documents provided through this service. As documents become available, we will notify you of this by sending you an e-mail message that will include instructions on how to retrieve the document. You are responsible for any e-mail filters that may prevent you from receiving e-mail notifications and for notifying us promptly in the event that your e-mail address changes. You may revoke your consent for electronic delivery at any time, provided that we are properly notified, and we will then start providing you with a paper copy of all required documents. We will provide you with paper copies at any time upon request. Such a request will not constitute revocation of your consent to receive required documents electronically.

For withdrawals, including exchanges under Code Section 1035 and other Qualified transfers, from the Variable Investment Options or for death benefit payments attributable to your Variable Account Value, we will normally send the proceeds within 7 calendar days after your request is effective or after the Notice Date, as the case may be. We will normally effect periodic annuity payments on the day that corresponds to the Annuity Date and will make payment on the following day. Payments or transfers may be suspended for a longer period under certain extraordinary circumstances. These include: a closing of the New York Stock Exchange other than on a regular holiday or weekend; a trading restriction imposed by the SEC; or an emergency declared by the SEC. Amounts withdrawn or transferred from any fixed-rate General Account Investment Option may be delayed for up to six months after the request is effective. See THE GENERAL ACCOUNT section in this Prospectus for more details.

Confirmations will be sent out for unscheduled Investments and transfers, loans, loan repayments, unscheduled partial withdrawals, a full withdrawal and on payment of any death benefit proceeds. Periodically, we will send you a statement that provides certain information pertinent to your Contract. These statements disclose Contract Value, Subaccount values, any fixed option values, fees and charges applied to your Contract Value, transactions made and specific Contract data that apply to your Contract. Confirmations of your transactions under the pre-authorized checking plan, dollar cost averaging, earnings sweep, portfolio rebalancing, and pre-authorized withdrawal options will appear on your quarterly account statements. Your fourth-quarter statement will contain annual information about your Contract Value and transactions. You may also access these statements online.

If you suspect an error on a confirmation or quarterly statement, you must notify us in writing as soon as possible to ensure proper accounting to your Contract. When you write, tell us your name, contract number and a description of the suspected error. We assume transactions are accurate unless you notify us otherwise within 30 days of receiving the transaction confirmation or, if the transaction is first confirmed on the quarterly statement, within 30 days of receiving the quarterly statement. All transactions are deemed final and may not be changed after the applicable 30 day period.

You will also be sent an annual report for the Separate Account and the Funds and a list of the securities held in each Portfolio of the Funds, as required by the 1940 Act; or more frequently if required by law.

Contract Owner Mailings. To help reduce expenses, environmental waste and the volume of mail you receive, only one copy of Contract Owner documents (such as the prospectus, supplements, announcements, and each annual and semi-annual report) may be mailed to Contract Owners who share the same household address (Householding). If you are already participating, you may opt out by contacting us. Please allow 30 calendar days for regular delivery to resume. You may also elect to participate in Householding by writing to us. The current documents are available on our website any time or an individual copy of any of these documents may be requested — see the last page of this Prospectus for more information.

PSD, a broker-dealer and our subsidiary, pays various forms of sales compensation to broker-dealers (including other affiliates) that solicit applications for the Contracts. PSD also may reimburse other expenses associated with the promotion and solicitation of applications for the Contracts.

We offer the Contracts for sale through broker-dealers that have entered into selling agreements with PSD. Broker-dealers sell the Contracts through their registered representatives. PSD pays compensation to broker-dealers for the promotion and sale of the Contracts. The individual registered representative who sells you a Contract typically will receive a portion of the compensation, under the representative’s own arrangement with his or her broker-dealer. Broker-dealers may receive aggregate commissions of up to 6.50% of your aggregate Purchase Payments. Under certain circumstances where PSD pays lower initial commissions, certain broker-dealers that solicit applications for Contracts may be paid an ongoing persistency trail commission (sometimes called a residual) which will take into account, among other things, the Account Value and the length of time Purchase Payments have been held under a Contract. A trail commission is not anticipated to exceed 1.50%, on an annual basis, of the Account Value considered in connection with the trail commission. Certain broker-dealers may also be paid an amount under a persistency program which will be based on assets under management and duration of Contracts. The amount under the persistency program for a registered representative is not expected to exceed .25% of their total assets under management.

We may also provide compensation to broker-dealers for providing ongoing service in relation to Contracts that have already been purchased.

To the extent permitted by SEC and FINRA rules and other applicable laws and regulations, selling broker-dealers may receive additional payments in the form of cash, other special compensation or reimbursement of expenses, sometimes called “revenue sharing”. These additional compensation or reimbursement arrangements may include, for example, payments in connection with the firm’s “due diligence” examination of the contracts, payments for providing conferences or seminars, sales or training programs for invited registered representatives and other employees, payments for travel expenses, including lodging, incurred by registered representatives and other employees for such seminars or training programs, seminars for the public, advertising and sales campaigns regarding the Contracts, and payments to assist a firm in connection with its administrative systems, operations and marketing expenses and/or other events or activities sponsored by the firms. Subject to applicable FINRA rules and other applicable laws and regulations, PSD and its affiliates may contribute to, as well as sponsor, various educational programs, sales contests and/or promotions in which participating firms and their salespersons may receive prizes such as merchandise, cash, or other awards. Such additional compensation may give us greater access to registered representatives of the broker-dealers that receive such compensation or may otherwise influence the way that a broker-dealer and registered representative market the Contracts.

These arrangements may not be applicable to all firms, and the terms of such arrangements may differ between firms. We provide additional information on special compensation or reimbursement arrangements involving selling firms and other financial institutions in the Statement of Additional Information, which is available upon request. Any such compensation will not result in any additional direct charge to you by us.

The compensation and other benefits provided by PSD or its affiliates may be more or less than the overall compensation on similar or other products. This may influence your registered representative or broker-dealer to present this Contract over other investment options available in the marketplace. You may ask your registered representative about these differing and divergent interests, how he/she is personally compensated and how his/her broker-dealer is compensated for soliciting applications for the Contract.

PSD shall pay American Funds Distributors, Inc. at a rate of 0.16% of Purchase Payments up to $1.5 billion, 0.14% on Purchase Payments on next $1.5 billion and 0.10% on Purchase Payments made in excess, attributable to the Master Funds for certain marketing assistance.

The term “replacement” has a special meaning in the life insurance industry and is described more fully below. Before you make your purchase decision, we want you to understand how a replacement may impact your existing plan of insurance.

A policy “replacement” occurs when a new policy or contract is purchased and, in connection with the sale, an existing policy or contract is surrendered, lapsed, forfeited, assigned to the replacing insurer, otherwise terminated, or used in a financed purchase. A “financed purchase” occurs when the purchase of a new life insurance policy or annuity contract involves the use of funds obtained from the values of an existing life insurance policy or annuity contract through withdrawal, surrender or loan.

There are circumstances in which replacing your existing life insurance policy or annuity contract can benefit you. As a general rule, however, replacement is not in your best interest. Accordingly, you should make a careful comparison of the costs and benefits of your existing policy or contract and the proposed policy or contract to determine whether replacement is in your best interest.

Certain Contract features described in this Prospectus may vary or may not be available in your state. The state in which your Contract is issued governs whether or not certain features, Riders, charges or fees are available or will vary under your Contract. These variations are reflected in your Contract and in Riders or Endorsements to your Contract. See your Registered Representative or contact us for specific information that may be applicable to your state.

For Contracts issued in the state of Pennsylvania, any person who knowingly and with intent to defraud any insurance company or other person files an application for insurance or statement of claim containing any materially false information or conceals for the purpose of misleading, information concerning any fact material thereto commits a fraudulent insurance act, which is a crime and subjects such person to criminal and civil penalties.

In addition, you understand that benefits and values provided under the Contract may be on a variable basis. Amounts directed into one or more variable Investment Options will reflect the investment experience of those Investment Options. These amounts may increase or decrease and are not guaranteed as to a dollar amount.

For residents of the state of California 60 years of age or older, the Free Look period is a 30-day period beginning on the day you receive your Contract. If you are a California applicant age 60 or older and your Contract is delivered or issued for delivery on or after July 1, 2004, you must elect, at the time you apply for your Contract, to receive a return of either your Purchase Payments or your Contract Value proceeds if you exercise your Right to Cancel and return your Contract to us.

If you elect to receive the return of Purchase Payments option, the following will apply



	•	We will allocate all or any portion of any Purchase Payment we receive to any available fixed option if you instruct us to do so. We will allocate all or any portion of any Purchase Payment designated for any Variable Investment Option to the Money Market Subaccount until the Free Look Transfer Date. The Free Look Transfer Date is 30 days from the Contract Date. On the Free Look Transfer Date, we will automatically transfer your Money Market Subaccount Value according to the instructions on your application, or your most recent instruction, if any. This automatic transfer to the Variable Investment Options according to your initial allocation instruction is excluded from the Transfer limitations. See the HOW YOUR INVESTMENTS ARE ALLOCATED—Transfers and Market-timing Restrictions section in this Prospectus.



	•	If you specifically instruct us to allocate all or any portion of any additional Purchase Payments we receive to any Variable Investment Option other than the Money Market Subaccount before the Free Look Transfer Date, you will automatically change your election to the return of your Contract Value proceeds option. This will automatically cancel your election of the “return of Purchase Payments” option for the entire Contract.



	•	If you request a transfer of all or any portion of your Contract Value from the Money Market Subaccount to any other Variable Investment Option before the Free Look Transfer Date, you will automatically change your election to the return of your Contract Value proceeds option. This will automatically cancel your election of the “return of Purchase Payments” option for the entire Contract.



	•	If you exercise your Right to Cancel, we will send you your Purchase Payments.

If you elect the return of Contract Value proceeds option, the following will apply:



	•	If you exercise your Right to Cancel, we will send you your Contract Value proceeds described in the Right to Cancel (“Free Look”) section of this prospectus.



	•	Once you elect this option, it may not be changed.

The statements of assets and liabilities of Separate Account B as of December 31, 2007, the related statements of operations for the periods presented, the statements of changes in net assets for each of the periods presented and the financial highlights for each of the periods presented are incorporated by reference in the Statement of Additional Information from the Annual Report of Separate Account B dated December 31, 2007. Pacific Life’s consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2007 and 2006 and for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2007 are contained in the Statement of Additional Information.

All amounts allocated to a fixed option become part of our General Account. Subject to applicable law, we exercise sole discretion over the investment of General Account assets, and bear the associated investment risk. You will not share in the investment experience of General Account assets.

Because of exemptive and exclusionary provisions, interests in the General Account under the Contract are not registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and the General Account has not been registered as an investment company under the 1940 Act. Any interest you have in a fixed option is not subject to these Acts, and we have been advised that the SEC staff has not reviewed disclosure in this Prospectus relating to any fixed option. This disclosure may, however, be subject to certain provisions of federal securities laws relating to the accuracy and completeness of statements made in prospectuses.

When you allocate any portion of your Investments or Contract Value to any fixed option, we guarantee you an interest rate (a “Guaranteed Interest Rate”) for a specified period of time (a “Guarantee Term”) of up to one year. Guarantee Terms will be offered at our discretion.

Guaranteed Interest Rates for any fixed option may be changed periodically for new allocations. Your allocation will receive the Guaranteed Interest Rate in effect for that fixed option on the effective date of your allocation. All Guaranteed Interest Rates will be expressed as annual effective rates, however, interest will accrue daily. The Guaranteed Interest Rate on your fixed option will remain in effect for the Guarantee Term and will never be less than an annual rate of 3%.

Prior to the Annuity Date, you may withdraw or transfer amounts from any fixed option to one or more of the other Variable Investment Options. No partial withdrawal or transfer may be made from a fixed option within 30 days of the Contract Date. Currently, we are not requiring the 30-day waiting period on partial withdrawals and transfers, but we reserve the right to require the 30-day waiting period on partial withdrawals and transfers in the future. If your withdrawal leaves you with a Net Contract Value of less than $1,000, we have the right, at our option, to terminate your Contract and send you the withdrawal proceeds.

Amounts transferred or withdrawn from any fixed option may be delayed, as described under the ADDITIONAL INFORMATION— Timing of Payments and Transactions section in this Prospectus. Any amount delayed, so long as it is held under any fixed option, will continue to earn interest at the Guaranteed Interest Rate then in effect until that Guarantee Term has ended, and the minimum guaranteed interest rate of 3% thereafter, unless state law requires a greater rate be paid.

Each allocation (or rollover) you make to the Fixed Option receives a Guarantee Term that begins on the day that allocation or rollover is effective and ends at the end of that Contract Year or, if earlier, on your Annuity Date. At the end of that Contract Year, we will roll over your Fixed Option Value on that day into a new Guarantee Term of one year (or, if shorter, the time remaining until your Annuity Date) at the then current Guaranteed Interest Rate, unless you instruct us otherwise.

Example: Your Contract Anniversary is February 1. On February 1 of year 1, you allocate $1,000 to the Fixed Option and receive a Guarantee Term of one year and a Guaranteed Interest Rate of 5%. On August 1, you allocate another $500 to the Fixed Option and receive a Guaranteed Interest Rate of 6%. Through January 31, year 1, your first allocation of $1,000 earns 5% interest and your second allocation of $500 earns 6% interest. On February 1, year 2, a new interest rate may go into effect for your entire Fixed Option Value.

You may make one transfer or partial withdrawal from your Fixed Option during any Contract Year, except that this limitation does not apply under the dollar cost averaging, earnings sweep and pre-authorized withdrawal programs. You may make one transfer or one partial withdrawal within the 30 days after the end of each Contract Anniversary. Normally, you may transfer or withdraw up to one-half (50%) of your Fixed Option Value in any given Contract Year. However, in consecutive Contract Years, you may transfer or withdraw 50% of your Fixed Option Value in the first year and your remaining Fixed Option Value in the second consecutive year. In addition, if, as a result of a partial withdrawal or transfer, the Fixed Option Value is less than $500, we have the right, at our option, to transfer the entire remaining amount to your other Investment Options on a proportionate basis relative to your most recent allocation instructions.

We reserve the right to waive the restrictions that limit transfers from the Fixed Option to one transfer within the 30 days after the end of each Contract Anniversary. We also reserve the right to waive the limitations on the maximum amount you may transfer from the Fixed Option in any given Contract year. Currently, we are not enforcing any of the Fixed Option withdrawal and transfer restrictions. We may process requests for transfers from the Fixed Option that are within the maximum number of allowable transfers among the Investment Options each calendar year; i.e. transfers are limited to 25 for each calendar year.

Some of the terms we’ve used in this Prospectus may be new to you. We’ve identified them in the Prospectus by capitalizing the first letter of each word. You will find an explanation of what they mean below.

If you have any questions, please ask your registered representative or call us at 1-800-722-4448. Registered Representatives may call us at 1-800-722-2333.

Annual Fee – A $30 fee charged each year on your Contract Anniversary and at the time of a full withdrawal, if your Net Contract Value is less than $50,000 on that date.

Annuitant – A person on whose life annuity payments may be determined. An Annuitant’s life may also be used to determine certain increases in death benefits, and to determine the Annuity Date. A Contract may name a single (“sole”) Annuitant or two (“Joint”) Annuitants, and may also name a “Contingent” Annuitant. If you name Joint Annuitants or a Contingent Annuitant, “the Annuitant” means the sole surviving Annuitant, unless otherwise stated.

Annuity Date – The date specified in your Contract, or the date you later elect, if any, for the start of annuity payments if the Annuitant (or Joint Annuitants) is (or are) still living and your Contract is in force; or if earlier, the date that annuity payments actually begin.

In this Prospectus, “day” or “date” means Business Day unless otherwise specified. If any transaction or event called for under a Contract is scheduled to occur on a day that is not a Business Day, such transaction or event will be deemed to occur on the next following Business Day unless otherwise specified. Any systematic pre-authorized transaction scheduled to occur on December 30 or December 31 where that day is not a Business Day will be deemed an order for the last Business Day of the calendar year and will be calculated using the applicable Subaccount Unit Value at the close of that Business Day. Special circumstances such as leap years and months with fewer than 31 days are discussed in the SAI.

Contingent Annuitant – A person, if named in your Contract, who will become your sole surviving Annuitant if your existing sole Annuitant (or both Joint Annuitants) should die before your Annuity Date.

Contract Owner, Owner, Policyholder, you, or your – Generally, a person who purchases a Contract and makes the Investments. A Contract Owner has all rights in the Contract, including the right to make withdrawals, designate and change beneficiaries, transfer amounts among Investment Options, and designate an Annuity Option. If your Contract names Joint Owners, both Joint Owners are Contract Owners and share all such rights. If there are Joint Owners, the Contract will be owned as Joint Tenants With Right of Survivorship and not as Tenants in Common.

Contract Value – As of the end of any Business Day, the sum of your Variable Account Value, any fixed option value, the value of any other Investment Option added to the Contract by Rider or Endorsement, and any Loan Account Value.

Contract Year – A year that starts on the Contract Date or on a Contract Anniversary.

Earnings – As of the end of any Business Day, your Earnings equal your Contract Value less your aggregate Investments, which are reduced by withdrawals of prior Investments.

Fixed Option – If you allocate all or part of your Investments or Contract Value to the Fixed Option, such amounts are held in our General Account and receive the Guaranteed Interest Rate declared periodically, but not less than an annual rate of 3%.

Fixed Option Value – The aggregate amount of your Contract Value allocated to the Fixed Option.

General Account – Our General Account consists of all of our assets other than those assets allocated to Separate Account B or to any of our other separate accounts.

Guaranteed Interest Rate – The interest rate guaranteed at the time of allocation (or rollover) for the Guarantee Term on amounts allocated to a fixed option. All Guaranteed Interest Rates are expressed as annual rates and interest is accrued daily. The rate will not be less than an annual rate of 3%.

Investment (“Premium Payment”) (“Purchase Payment”) – An amount paid to us by or on behalf of a Contract Owner as consideration for the benefits provided under the Contract.

Investment Option – A Subaccount, any fixed option or any other Investment Option added to the Contract by Rider or Endorsement.

Loan Account Value – The amount, including any interest accrued, held in the Loan Account to secure any Contract Debt.

Primary Annuitant – The individual that is named in your Contract, the events in the life of whom are of primary importance in affecting the timing or amount of the payout under the Contract.

Portfolio – A separate portfolio of a Fund in which a Subaccount invests its assets.

Purchase Payment (“Premium Payment”) (“Investment”) – An amount paid to us by or on behalf of a Contract Owner as consideration for the benefits provided under the Contract.

Qualified Contract – A Contract that qualifies under the Code as an individual retirement annuity or account (IRA), or form thereof, or a Contract purchased by a Qualified Plan, qualifying for special tax treatment under the Code.

Qualified Plan – A retirement plan that receives favorable tax treatment under Section 401, 403, or 457 of the Code.

Separate Account B (the “Separate Account”) – A separate account of ours registered as a unit investment trust under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”).

Subaccount – An investment division of the Separate Account. Each Subaccount invests its assets in shares of a corresponding Portfolio.

Subaccount Annuity Unit – Subaccount Annuity Units (or “Annuity Units”) are used to measure variation in variable annuity payments. To the extent you elect to convert all or some of your Contract Value into variable annuity payments, the amount of each annuity payment (after the first payment) will vary with the value and number of Annuity Units in each Subaccount attributed to any variable annuity payments. At annuitization (after any applicable premium taxes and/or other taxes are paid), the amount annuitized to a variable annuity determines the amount of your first variable annuity payment and the number of Annuity Units credited to your annuity in each Subaccount. The value of Subaccount Annuity Units, like the value of Subaccount Units, is expected to fluctuate daily, as described in the definition of Unit Value.

Subaccount Unit – Before your Annuity Date, each time you allocate an amount to a Subaccount, your Contract is credited with a number of Subaccount Units in that Subaccount. These Units are used for accounting purposes to measure your Account Value in that Subaccount. The value of Subaccount Units is expected to fluctuate daily, as described in the definition of Unit Value.

Unit Value – The value of a Subaccount Unit (“Subaccount Unit Value”) or Subaccount Annuity Unit (“Subaccount Annuity Unit Value”). Unit Value of any Subaccount is subject to change on any Business Day in much the same way that the value of a mutual fund share changes each day. The fluctuations in value reflect the investment results, expenses of and charges against the Portfolio in which the Subaccount invests its assets. Fluctuations also reflect charges against the Separate Account. Changes in Subaccount Annuity Unit Values also reflect an additional factor that adjusts Subaccount Annuity Unit Values to offset our Annuity Option Table’s implicit assumption of an annual investment return of 5%. The effect of this assumed investment return is explained in detail in the SAI. Unit Value of a Subaccount Unit or Subaccount Annuity Unit on any Business Day is measured as of the close of the New York Stock Exchange on that Business Day, which usually closes at 4:00 p.m., Eastern time, although it occasionally closes earlier.

Variable Account Value – The aggregate amount of your Contract Value allocated to all Subaccounts.

Variable Investment Option – A Subaccount (also called a Variable Account).

For Contracts in a Portfolio Optimization Model during the period May 4, 2007 to May 2, 2008

If you select a Portfolio Optimization model, until May 2, 2008 your Purchase Payments or Contract Value, as applicable, will be allocated to the Investment Options according to the model you select as indicated in the chart below. On May 2, 2008, we will automatically update your model to the Portfolio Optimization model allocations shown under the HOW YOUR INVESTMENTS ARE ALLOCATED— Portfolio Optimization section in this Prospectus.

If you have any questions about the Contract, please ask your registered representative or contact us.

Pacific Select Variable Annuity II (the “Contract”) is a variable annuity contract offered by Pacific Life Insurance Company (“Pacific Life”).

This Statement of Additional Information (“SAI”) is not a Prospectus and should be read in conjunction with the Contract’s Prospectus, dated May 1, 2008, and any supplement thereto, which is available without charge upon written or telephone request to Pacific Life. Terms used in this SAI have the same meanings as in the Prospectus, and some additional terms are defined particularly for this SAI. This SAI is incorporated by reference into the Contract’s Prospectus.

From time to time, our reports or other communications to current or prospective Contract Owners or our advertising or other promotional material may quote the performance (yield and total return) of a Subaccount. Quoted results are based on past performance and reflect the performance of all assets held in that Subaccount for the stated time period. Quoted results are neither an estimate nor a guarantee of future investment performance, and do not represent the actual experience of amounts invested by any particular Contract Owner.

A Subaccount may advertise its “average annual total return” over various periods of time. “Total return” represents the average percentage change in value of an investment in the Subaccount from the beginning of a measuring period to the end of that measuring period. “Annualized” total return assumes that the total return achieved for the measuring period is achieved for each such period for a full year. “Average annual” total return is computed in accordance with a standard method prescribed by the SEC, and is also referred to as “standardized return.”

To calculate a Subaccount’s average annual total return for a specific measuring period, we first take a hypothetical $1,000 investment in that Subaccount, at its then-applicable Subaccount Unit Value (the “initial payment”) and we compute the ending redeemable value (“full withdrawal value”) of that initial payment at the end of the measuring period. The redeemable value reflects the effect of all recurring fees and charges applicable to a Contract Owner under the Contract, including the Risk Charge, the asset-based Administrative Fee and the deduction of the applicable withdrawal charge, but does not reflect any charges for applicable premium taxes. The Annual Fee is also taken into account, assuming an average Contract Value of $35,000. The redeemable value is then divided by the initial payment and this quotient is raised to the 365/N power (N represents the number of years in the measuring period), and 1 is subtracted from this result. Average annual total return is expressed as a percentage.

Average annual total return figures will be given for recent one-, three-, five- and ten-year periods (if applicable), and may be given for other periods as well (such as from commencement of the Subaccount’s operations, or on a year-by-year basis).

When considering “average” total return figures for periods longer than one year, it is important to note that the relevant Subaccount’s annual total return for any one year in the period might have been greater or less than the average for the entire period.

A Subaccount may use “aggregate” total return figures along with its “average annual” total return figures for various periods; these figures represent the cumulative change in value of an investment in the Subaccount for a specific period. Aggregate total returns may be shown by means of schedules, charts or graphs and may indicate subtotals of the various components of total return. The SEC has not prescribed standard formulas for calculating aggregate total return.

Total returns may also be shown for the same periods that do not take into account the withdrawal charge or the Annual Fee.

The “yield” (also called “current yield”) of the Money Market Subaccount is computed in accordance with a standard method prescribed by the SEC. The net change in the Subaccount’s Unit Value during a seven-day period is divided by the Unit Value at the beginning of the period to obtain a base rate of return. The current yield is generated when the base rate is “annualized” by multiplying it by the fraction 365/7; that is, the base rate of return is assumed to be generated each week over a 365-day period and is shown as a percentage of the investment. The “effective yield” of the Money Market Subaccount is calculated similarly but, when annualized, the base rate of return is assumed to be reinvested. The effective yield will be slightly higher than the current yield because of the compounding effect of this assumed reinvestment.

The formula for effective yield is: [(Base Period Return + 1) (To the power of (365/7))] - 1.

Realized capital gains or losses and unrealized appreciation or depreciation of the assets of the underlying Money Market Portfolio are not included in the yield calculation. Current yield and effective yield do not reflect the deduction of charges for any applicable premium taxes and/or any other taxes, but do reflect a deduction for the Annual Fee, the Risk Charge and the Administrative Fee and assumes an average Contract Value of $35,000. Yield information may be accompanied by yield quotations that do not take certain charges into account.

“Yield” of the other Subaccounts is computed in accordance with a different standard method prescribed by the SEC. The net investment income (investment income less expenses) per Subaccount Unit earned during a specified one-month or 30-day period is divided by the Subaccount Unit Value on the last day of the specified period. This result is then annualized (that is, the yield is assumed to be generated each month or each 30-day period for a year), according to the following formula, which assumes semi-annual compounding:

The yield of each Subaccount reflects the deduction of all recurring fees and charges applicable to the Subaccount, such as the Risk Charge, the asset-based Administrative Fee and the Annual Fee (assuming an average Contract Value of $35,000), but does not reflect any withdrawal charge or any charge for applicable premium taxes and/or any other taxes. Yield information may be accompanied by yield quotations that do not take certain charges into account.

The Subaccounts’ yields will vary from time to time depending upon market conditions, the composition of each Portfolio and operating expenses of the Fund allocated to each Portfolio. Consequently, any given performance quotation should not be considered representative of the Subaccount’s performance in the future. Yield should also be considered relative to changes in Subaccount Unit Values and to the relative risks associated with the investment policies and objectives of the various Portfolios. In addition, because performance will fluctuate, it may not provide a basis for comparing the yield of a Subaccount with certain bank deposits or other investments that pay a fixed yield or return for a stated period of time.

In advertisements and sales literature, we may compare the performance of some or all of the Subaccounts to the performance of other variable annuity issuers in general and to the performance of particular types of variable annuities investing in mutual funds, or series of mutual funds, with investment objectives similar to each of the Subaccounts. This performance may be presented as averages or rankings compiled by Lipper Analytical Services, Inc. (“Lipper”), or Morningstar, Inc. (“Morningstar”), which are independent services that monitor and rank the performance of variable annuity issuers and mutual funds in each of the major categories of investment objectives on an industry-wide basis. Lipper’s rankings include variable life issuers as well as variable annuity issuers. The performance analyses prepared by Lipper and Morningstar rank such issuers on the basis of total return, assuming reinvestment of dividends and distributions, but do not take sales charges, redemption fees or certain expense deductions at the separate account level into consideration. In addition, Morningstar prepares risk adjusted rankings, which consider the effects of market risk on total return performance. We may also compare the performance of the Subaccounts with performance information included in other publications and services that monitor the performance of insurance company separate accounts or other investment vehicles. These other services or publications may be general interest business publications such as The Wall Street Journal, Barron’s, Business Week, Forbes, Fortune, and Money.

In addition, our reports and communications to Contract Owners, advertisements, or sales literature may compare a Subaccount’s performance to various benchmarks that measure the performance of a pertinent group of securities widely regarded by investors as being representative of the securities markets in general or as being representative of a particular type of security. We may also compare the performance of the Subaccounts with that of other appropriate indices of investment securities and averages for peer universes of funds or data developed by us derived from such indices or averages. Unmanaged indices generally assume the reinvestment of dividends or interest but do not generally reflect deductions for investment management or administrative costs and expenses.

In reports or other communications to you or in advertising or sales materials, we may also describe the effects of tax-deferred compounding on the Separate Account’s investment returns or upon returns in general. These effects may be illustrated in charts or graphs and may include comparisons at various points in time of returns under the Contract or in general on a tax-deferred basis with the returns on a taxable basis. Different tax rates may be assumed.

In general, individuals who own annuity contracts are not taxed on increases in the value under the annuity contract until some form of distribution is made from the contract. Thus, the annuity contract will benefit from tax deferral during the accumulation period, which generally will have the effect of permitting an investment in an annuity contract to grow more rapidly than a comparable investment under which increases in value are taxed on a current basis. The following chart illustrates this benefit by comparing accumulation under a variable annuity contract with accumulations from an investment on which gains are taxed on a current ordinary income basis.

The chart shows accumulations on a single Purchase Payment of $10,000, assuming hypothetical annual returns of 0%, 4% and 8%, compounded annually, and a tax rate of 33%. The values shown for the taxable investment do not include any deduction for management fees or other expenses but assume that taxes are deducted annually from investment returns. The values shown for the variable annuity do not reflect the deduction of contractual expenses such as the Risk Charge (equal to an annual rate of 1.25% of average daily Account Value), the Administrative Fee (equal to an annual rate of 0.15% of average daily Account Value), and the Annual Fee (equal to $30 per year if Net Contract Value is $50,000 or less), charge for premium taxes and/or other taxes, any applicable withdrawal charge; or the expenses of an underlying investment vehicle, such as the Fund.

Generally, the withdrawal charge is equal to 7% of the amount withdrawn attributable to Purchase Payments that are one year old, 6% of the amount withdrawn attributable to Purchase Payments that are two years old, 5% of the amount withdrawn attributable to Purchase Payments that are three years old, 3% of the amount

There is no withdrawal charge to the extent that total withdrawals that are free of charge during the Contract Year do not exceed 10% of the sum of your remaining Purchase Payments at the beginning of the Contract Year that have been held under your Contract for less than six years plus additional Purchase Payments applied to your Contract during that Contract Year. For a description of the charges and expenses under the Contract, see the CHARGES, FEES AND DEDUCTIONS section in the Prospectus. If these expenses and fees were taken into account, they would reduce the investment return shown for both the taxable investment and the hypothetical variable annuity contract. In addition, these values assume that you do not surrender the Contract or make any withdrawals until the end of the period shown. The chart assumes a full withdrawal, at the end of the period shown, of all Contract Value and the payment of taxes at the 33% rate on the amount in excess of the Purchase Payment.

The rates of return illustrated are hypothetical and are not an estimate or guarantee of performance. Actual tax rates may vary for different assets (e.g. capital gains and qualifying dividend income) and taxpayers from that illustrated and withdrawals by and distributions to Contract Owners who have not reached age 59 1/2 may be subject to a tax penalty of 10%.

Pacific Select Distributors, Inc., our subsidiary, acts as the distributor of the Contracts and offers the Contracts on a continuous basis. PSD is located at 700 Newport Center Drive, Newport Beach, California 92660. PSD is registered as a broker-dealer with the SEC and is a member of FINRA. We pay PSD for acting as distributor under a Distribution Agreement. We and PSD enter into selling agreements with broker-dealers whose registered representatives are authorized by state insurance departments to solicit applications for the Contracts. The aggregate amount of underwriting commissions paid to PSD for 2007, 2006 and 2005 with regard to this Contract was $49,980, $56,164 and $63,235 respectively, of which $0 was retained.

PSD or an affiliate pays various sales compensation to broker-dealers that solicit applications for the Contracts. PSD or an affiliate also may provide reimbursement for other expenses associated with the promotion and solicitation of applications for the Contracts. Your registered representative typically receives a portion of the compensation that is payable to his or her broker-dealer in connection with the Contract, depending on the agreement between your registered representative and his or her firm. Pacific Life is not involved in determining that compensation arrangement, which may present its own incentives or conflicts. You may ask your registered representative how he/she will personally be compensated for the transaction.

Under certain circumstances where PSD pays lower initial commissions, certain broker-dealers that solicit applications for Contracts may be paid an ongoing persistency trail commission (sometimes called a residual). The mix of Purchase Payment-based versus trail commissions varies depending upon our agreement with the selling broker-dealer and the commission option selected by your registered representative or broker-dealer. Certain broker-dealers may also be paid an amount under a persistency program which will be based on assets under management and duration of contracts. The amount under the persistency program for a registered representative is not expected to exceed .25% of their total assets under management.

In addition to the Purchase Payment-based, trail commissions and persistency program described above, we and/or an affiliate may pay additional cash compensation from our own resources in connection with the promotion and solicitation of applications for the Contracts by some, but not all, broker-dealers. The range of additional cash compensation based on Purchase Payments generally does not exceed 0.40% and trailing compensation based on Account Value generally does not exceed 0.10% on an annual basis. Such additional compensation may give Pacific Life greater access to registered representatives of the broker-dealers that receive such compensation. While this greater access provides the opportunity for training and other educational programs so that your registered representative may serve you better, this additional compensation also may afford Pacific Life a “preferred” status at the recipient broker-dealer and provide some other marketing benefit such as website placement, access to registered representative lists, extra marketing assistance or other heightened visibility and access to the broker-dealer’s sales force that may otherwise influence the way that the broker-dealer and the registered representative market the Contracts.

We or our affiliates may also pay override payments, expense allowances and reimbursements, bonuses, wholesaler fees, and training and marketing allowances. Such payments may offset the broker-dealer’s expenses in connection with activities that it is required to perform, such as educating personnel and maintaining records. Registered representatives may also receive non-cash compensation such as expense-paid educational or training seminars involving travel within and outside the U.S. or promotional merchandise.

All of the compensation described in this section, and other compensation or benefits provided by us or our affiliates, may be more or less than the overall compensation on similar or other products and may influence your registered representative or broker-dealer to present this Contract over other investment options. You may ask your registered representative about these potential conflicts of interests and how he/she and his/her broker-dealer are compensated for selling the Contract.

Portfolio Managers of the underlying Portfolios available under this Contract may from time to time bear all or a portion of the expenses of conferences or meetings sponsored by Pacific Life or PSD that are attended by, among others, registered representatives of PSD, who would receive information and/or training regarding the Fund’s Portfolios and their management by the Portfolio Managers in addition to information respecting the variable annuity and/or life insurance products issued by Pacific Life and its affiliates. Other persons may also attend all or a portion of any such conferences or meetings, including directors, officers and employees of Pacific Life, officers and trustees of Pacific Select Fund, and spouses/guests of the foregoing. The Pacific Select Fund Board of Trustees may hold meetings concurrently with such a conference or meeting. The Pacific Select Fund pays for the expenses of the meetings of its Board of Trustees, including the pro-rata share of expenses for attendance by the Trustees at the concurrent conferences or meetings sponsored by Pacific Life or PSD. Additional expenses and promotional items may be paid for by Pacific Life and/or Portfolio Managers. PSD serves as the Pacific Select Fund Distributor.

The Unit Value of the Subaccount Units in each Variable Investment Option is computed at the close of the New York Stock Exchange, which is usually 4:00 p.m. Eastern time on each Business Day. The initial Unit Value of each Subaccount was $10 on the Business Day the Subaccount began operations. At the end of each Business Day, the Unit Value for a Subaccount is equal to:

The “Net Investment Factor” for a Subaccount for any valuation period is equal to:

As explained in the Prospectus, the Annual Fee, if applicable, will be charged proportionately against your Investment Options. Assessments against your Variable Investment Options are assessed against your Variable Account Value through the automatic debit of Subaccount Units; the Annual Fee decreases the number of Subaccount Units attributed to your Contract but does not alter the Unit Value for any Subaccount.

The following steps show how we determine the amount of each variable annuity payment under your Contract.

When you convert your Net Contract Value into annuity payments, you must pay any applicable charge for premium taxes and/or other taxes on your Contract Value (unless applicable law requires those taxes to be paid at a later time). We assess this charge by reducing your Account Value proportionately, relative to your Account Value in each Subaccount and in any fixed option, in an amount equal to the aggregate amount of the charges. The remaining amount of your available Net Contract Value may be used to provide variable annuity payments. Alternatively, your remaining available Net Contract Value may be used to provide fixed annuity payments, or it may be divided to provide both fixed and variable annuity payments. You may also choose to withdraw some or all of your remaining Net Contract Value, less any applicable Annual Fees, any charge for an optional Rider, and/or withdrawal charge, and any charges for premium taxes and/or other taxes without converting this amount into annuity payments.

We begin by referring to your Contract’s Option Table for your Annuity Option (the “Annuity Option Table”). The Annuity Option Table allows us to calculate the dollar amount of the first variable annuity payment under your Contract, based on the amount applied toward the variable annuity. The number that the Annuity Option Table yields will be based on the Annuitant’s age (and, in certain cases, sex) and assumes a 5% rate of return, as described in more detail below.

You may choose any other Annuity Option Table that assumes a different rate of return which we offer at the time your Annuity Option is effective.

For each Subaccount, we use the amount of the first variable annuity payment under your Contract attributed to each Subaccount to determine the number of Subaccount Annuity Units that will form the basis of subsequent payment amounts. First, we use the Annuity Option Table to determine the amount of that first variable payment for each Subaccount. Then, for each Subaccount, we divide that amount of the first variable annuity payment by the value of one Subaccount Annuity Unit (the “Subaccount Annuity Unit Value”) as of the end of the Annuity Date to obtain the number of Subaccount Annuity Units for that particular Subaccount. The number of Subaccount Annuity Units used to calculate subsequent payments under your Contract will not change unless exchanges of Annuity Units are made, (or if the Joint and Survivor Annuity Option is elected and the Primary Annuitant dies first,) but the value of those Annuity Units will change daily, as described below.

The amount of each subsequent variable annuity payment will be the sum of the amounts payable based on each Subaccount. The amount payable based on each Subaccount is equal to the number of Subaccount Annuity Units for that Subaccount multiplied by their Subaccount Annuity Unit Value at the end of the Business Day in each payment period you elected that corresponds to the Annuity Date.

Each Subaccount’s Subaccount Annuity Unit Value, like its Subaccount Unit Value, changes each day to reflect the net investment results of the underlying investment vehicle, as well as the assessment of the Risk Charge at an annual rate of 1.25% and the Administrative Fee at an annual rate of 0.15%. In addition, the calculation of Subaccount Annuity Unit Value incorporates an additional factor; as discussed in more detail below, this additional factor adjusts Subaccount Annuity Values to correct for the Option Table’s implicit assumption of a 5% annual investment return on amounts applied but not yet used to furnish annuity benefits.

Different Subaccounts may be selected for your Contract before and after your Annuity Date, subject to any restrictions we may establish. Currently, you may exchange Subaccount Annuity Units in any Subaccount for Subaccount Annuity Units in any other Subaccount(s) up to four times in any twelve month period after your Annuity Date. The number of Subaccount Annuity Units in any Subaccount may change due to such exchanges. Exchanges following your Annuity Date will be made by exchanging Subaccount Annuity Units of equivalent aggregate value, based on their relative Subaccount Annuity Unit Values.

The Annuity Option Table incorporates a number of implicit assumptions in determining the amount of your first variable annuity payment. As noted above, the numbers in the Annuity Option Table reflect certain actuarial assumptions based on the Annuitant’s age, and, in some cases, the Annuitant’s sex. In addition, these numbers assume that the amount of your Contract Value that you convert to a variable annuity will have a positive net investment return of 5% each year during the payout of your annuity; thus 5% is referred to as an “assumed investment return.”

The Subaccount Annuity Unit Value for a Subaccount will increase only to the extent that the investment performance of that Subaccount exceeds the Risk Charge, the Administrative Fee, and the assumed investment return. The Subaccount Annuity Unit Value for any Subaccount will generally be less than the Subaccount Unit Value for that same Subaccount, and the difference will be the amount of the assumed investment return factor.

Example: Assume the net investment performance of a Subaccount is at a rate of 5.00% per year (after deduction of the 1.25% Risk Charge and the 0.15% Administrative Fee). The Subaccount Unit Value for that Subaccount would increase at a rate of 5.00% per year, but the Subaccount Annuity Unit Value would not increase (or decrease) at all. The net investment factor for that 5% return [1.05] is then divided by the factor for the 5% assumed investment return [1.05] and 1 is subtracted from the result to determine the adjusted rate of change in Subaccount Annuity Unit Value:

If the net investment performance of a Subaccount’s assets is at a rate less than 5.00% per year, the Subaccount Annuity Unit Value will decrease, even if the Subaccount Unit Value is increasing.

Example: Assume the net investment performance of a Subaccount is at a rate of 2.60% per year (after deduction of the 1.25% Risk Charge and the 0.15% Administrative Fee). The Subaccount Unit Value for that Subaccount would increase at a rate of 2.60% per year, but the Subaccount Annuity Unit Value would decrease at a rate of 2.29% per year. The net investment factor for that 2.6% return [1.026] is then divided by the factor for the 5% assumed investment return [1.05] and 1 is subtracted from the result to determine the adjusted rate of change in Subaccount Annuity Unit Value:

The assumed investment return will always cause increases in Subaccount Annuity Unit Values to be somewhat less than if the assumption had not been made, will cause decreases in Subaccount Annuity Unit Values to be somewhat greater than if the assumption had not been made, and will (as shown in the example above) sometimes cause a decrease in Subaccount Annuity Unit Values to take place when an increase would have occurred if the assumption had not been made. If we had assumed a higher investment return in our Annuity Option tables, it would produce annuities with larger first payments, but the increases in subaccount annuity payments would be smaller and the decreases in subsequent annuity payments would be greater; a lower assumed investment return would produce annuities with smaller first payments, and the increases in subsequent annuity payments would be greater and the decreases in subsequent annuity payments would be smaller.

If variable payments are elected under Annuity Options 2 and 4, you may redeem all remaining guaranteed variable payments after the Annuity Date. Also, under Option 4, partial redemptions of remaining guaranteed variable payments after the Annuity Date are available. The amount available upon full redemption would be the present value of any remaining guaranteed variable payments at the assumed investment return. Any applicable withdrawal charge will be deducted from the present value as if you made a full withdrawal, or if applicable, a partial withdrawal. For purposes of calculating the withdrawal charge and Free Withdrawal amount, it will be assumed that the Contract was never converted to provide annuity payments and any prior variable annuity payments in that Contract Year will be treated as if they were partial withdrawals from the Contract (See the CHARGES, FEES AND DEDUCTIONS — Withdrawal Charge section in the Prospectus). For example, assume that a Contract was issued with a single investment of $10,000 and in Contract Year 3 the Owner elects to receive variable annuity payments under Annuity Option 4. In Contract Year 4, the Owner elects to make a partial redemption of $5,000. The withdrawal charge as a percentage of the Purchase Payments with an age of 4 years is 3%. Assuming the Free Withdrawal amount immediately prior to the partial redemption is $200, the withdrawal charge for the partial redemption will be $144 (($5,000 - $200) * 3%). No withdrawal charge will be imposed on a redemption if:


	•	the Annuity Option is elected as the form of payments of death benefit proceeds, or

	•	the Annuitant dies before the period certain has ended and the Beneficiary requests a redemption of the variable annuity payments.

The variable payment amount we use in calculating the present value is determined by summing an amount for each Subaccount, which we calculate by multiplying your Subaccount Annuity Units by the Annuity Unit Value next computed after we receive your redemption request. This variable payment amount is then discounted at the assumed investment return from each future Annuity Payment date that falls within the payment guaranteed period. The sum of these discounted remaining variable payment amounts is the present value of remaining guaranteed variable payments.

If you elect to redeem all remaining guaranteed variable payments in a single sum, we will not make any additional variable annuity payments during the remaining guaranteed period after the redemption.

If you elect to redeem a portion of the remaining guaranteed variable payments in a single sum, we will reduce the number of Annuity Units for each Subaccount by the same percentage as the partial redemption value bears to the amount available upon a full redemption.

Redemption of remaining guaranteed variable payments will not affect the amount of any fixed annuity payments.

If any transaction or event under your Contract is scheduled to occur on a “corresponding date” that does not exist in a given calendar period, the transaction or event will be deemed to occur on the following Business Day. In addition, as stated in the Prospectus, any event scheduled to occur on a day that is not a Business Day will occur on the next succeeding Business Day.


	Example: If your Contract is issued on February 29 in year 1 (a leap year), your Contract Anniversary in years 2, 3 and 4 will be on March 1.

	Example: If your Annuity Date is July 31 and you select monthly annuity payments, the payments received will be based on valuations made on July 31, August 31, October 1 (for September), October 31, December 1 (for November), December 31, January 31, March 1 (for February), March 31, May 1 (for April), May 31 and July 1 (for June).

The Contracts generally provide for sex-distinct annuity income factors in the case of life annuities. Statistically, females tend to have longer life expectancies than males; consequently, if the amount of annuity payments is based on life expectancy, they will ordinarily be higher if an annuitant is male than if an annuitant is female. Certain states’ regulations prohibit sex-distinct annuity income factors, and Contracts issued in those states will use unisex factors. In addition, Contracts issued in connection with Qualified Plans are required to use unisex factors.

We may require proof of your Annuitant’s age and sex before or after commencing annuity payments. If the age or sex (or both) of your Annuitant are incorrectly stated in your Contract, we will correct the amount payable to equal the amount that the annuitized portion of the Contract Value under that Contract would have purchased for your Annuitant’s correct age and sex. If we make the correction after annuity payments have started, and we have made overpayments based on the incorrect information, we will deduct the amount of the overpayment, with interest at 3% a year, from any payments due then or later; if we have made underpayments, we will add the amount, with interest at 3% a year, of the underpayments to the next payment we make after we receive proof of the correct age and/or sex.

Additionally, we may require proof of the Annuitant’s or Owner’s age before any payments associated with the Death Benefit provisions of your Contract are made. If the age or sex of the Annuitant is incorrectly stated in your Contract, we will base any payment associated with the Death Benefit provisions on your Contract on the Annuitant’s or Owner’s correct age or sex.

The fixed option(s) are not available in connection with portfolio rebalancing. If you are using the earnings sweep, you may also use portfolio rebalancing only if you selected the Money Market Subaccount, or, the Fixed Option as your sweep option. You may not use dollar cost averaging and the earnings sweep at the same time. The systematic transfer options are not available after you annuitize and are subject to the same requirements and restrictions as non-systematic transfers. In addition, no fixed option(s) may be used as the target Investment Option under any systematic transfer program.

When you request dollar cost averaging, you are authorizing us to make periodic reallocations of your Contract Value without waiting for any further instruction from you. You may request to begin or stop dollar cost averaging at any time prior to your Annuity Date; the effective date of your request will be the day we receive notice from you in a form satisfactory to us. Your request may specify the date on which you want your first transfer to be made. Your first transfer may not be made until 30 days after your Contract Date, and if you specify an earlier date, your first transfer will be delayed until one calendar month after the date you specify. If you request dollar cost averaging on your application for your Contract and you fail to specify a date for your first transfer, your first transfer will be made one period after your Contract Date (that is, if you specify monthly transfers, the first transfer will occur 30 days after your Contract Date; quarterly transfers, 90 days after your Contract Date; semi-annual transfers, 180 days after your Contract Date; and if you specify annual transfers, the first transfer will occur on your Contract Anniversary). If you stop dollar cost averaging, you must wait 30 days before you may begin this option again. Currently, we are not enforcing the 30 day waiting period but we reserve the right to enforce such waiting period in the future.

Your request to begin dollar cost averaging must specify the Investment Option you wish to transfer money from (your “source account”). You may choose any one Investment Option as your source account. The Account Value of your source account must be at least $5,000 for you to begin dollar cost averaging. Currently, we are not enforcing the minimum Account Value but we reserve the right to enforce such minimum amounts in the future.

Your request to begin dollar cost averaging must also specify the amount and frequency of your transfers. You may choose monthly, quarterly, semiannual or annual transfers. The amount of your transfers may be specified as a dollar amount or a percentage of your source Account Value; however, each transfer must be at least $250. Currently, we are not enforcing the minimum transfer amount but we reserve the right to enforce such minimum amounts in the future. Dollar cost averaging transfers are not subject to the same requirements and limitations as other transfers.

Finally, your request must specify the Variable Investment Option(s) you wish to transfer amounts to (your “target account(s)”). If you select more than one target account, your dollar cost averaging request must specify how transferred amounts should be allocated among the target accounts. Your source account may not also be a target account.


	•	your request to stop dollar cost averaging is effective, or

	•	your source Account Value is zero, or

	•	your Annuity Date.

If, as a result of a dollar cost averaging transfer, your source Account Value falls below any minimum Account Value we may establish, we have the right, at our option, to transfer that remaining Account Value to your target account(s) on a proportionate basis relative to your most recent allocation instructions. We may change, terminate or suspend the dollar cost averaging option at any time.

Portfolio rebalancing allows you to maintain the percentage of your Contract Value allocated to each Variable Investment Option at a pre-set level prior to annuitization.


	For example, you could specify that 30% of your Contract Value should be in the Equity Index Subaccount, 40% in the Managed Bond Subaccount, and 30% in the Growth LT Subaccount.

Over time, the variations in each Subaccount’s investment results will shift this balance of these Subaccount Value allocations. If you elect the portfolio rebalancing feature, we will automatically transfer your Subaccount Value back to the percentages you specify.

You may choose to have rebalances made quarterly, semi-annually or annually until your Annuity Date; portfolio rebalancing is not available after you annuitize.

Procedures for selecting portfolio rebalancing are generally the same as those discussed in detail above for selecting dollar cost averaging: You may make your request at any time prior to your Annuity Date and it will be effective when we receive it in a form satisfactory to us. If you stop portfolio rebalancing, you must wait 30 days to begin again. Currently, we are not enforcing the 30-day waiting period but we reserve the right to enforce such waiting period in the future. If you specify a date fewer than 30 days after your Contract Date, your first rebalance will be delayed one month, and if you request rebalancing on your application but do not specify a date for the first rebalance, it will occur one period after your Contract Date, as described above under Dollar Cost Averaging. We may change, terminate or suspend the portfolio rebalancing feature at any time.

An earnings sweep automatically transfers the earnings from the Fixed Option or the Money Market Subaccount (the “sweep option”) to one or more other Variable Investment Options (your “target option(s)”). The Account Value of your sweep option will be required to be at least $5,000 when you elect the earnings sweep. Currently, we are not enforcing the minimum Account Value but we reserve the right to enforce such minimum amounts in the future.

You may choose to have earnings sweeps occur monthly, quarterly, semi-annually or annually until you annuitize. At each earnings sweep, we will automatically transfer your accumulated earnings attributable to your sweep option for the previous period proportionately to your target option(s). That is, if you select a monthly earnings sweep, we will transfer the sweep option earnings from the preceding month; if you select a semi-annual earnings sweep, we will transfer the sweep option earnings accumulated over the preceding six months. Earnings sweep transfers are not subject to the same requirements and limitations as other transfers.

To determine the earnings, we take the change in the sweep option’s Account Value during the sweep period, add any withdrawals or transfers out of the sweep option Account that occurred during the sweep period, and subtract any allocations to the sweep option Account during the sweep period. The result of this calculation represents the “total earnings” for the sweep period.

If, during the sweep period, you withdraw or transfer amounts from the sweep option Account, we assume that earnings are withdrawn or transferred before any other Account Value. Therefore, your “total earnings” for the sweep period will be reduced by any amounts withdrawn or transferred during the sweep option period. The remaining earnings are eligible for the sweep transfer.

Procedures for selecting the earnings sweep are generally the same as those discussed in detail above for selecting dollar cost averaging and portfolio rebalancing: You may make your request at any time and it will be effective when we receive it in a form satisfactory to us. If you stop the earnings sweep, you must wait 30 days to begin again. Currently, we are not enforcing the 30-day waiting period but we reserve the right to enforce such waiting period in the future. If you specify a date fewer than 30 days after your Contract Date, your first earnings sweep will be delayed one month, and if you request the earnings sweep on your application but do not specify a date for the first sweep, it will occur one period after your Contract Date, as described above under Dollar Cost Averaging.

If you are using the earnings sweep, you may also use portfolio rebalancing only if you selected the Fixed Option as your sweep option or, if the Money Market was elected as the sweep option, it may not be rebalanced as part of portfolio rebalancing. You may not use the earnings sweep and dollar cost averaging at the same time. If, as a result of an earnings sweep transfer, your source Account Value falls below any minimum Account Value we may establish, we have the right, at our option, to transfer that remaining Account Value to your target account(s) on a proportionate basis relative to your most recent allocation instructions. We may change, terminate or suspend the earnings sweep option at any time.

You may specify a dollar amount for your pre-authorized withdrawals, or you may specify a percentage of your Contract Value or an Account Value. You may direct us to make your pre-authorized withdrawals from one or more specific Investment Options. If you do not give us these specific instructions, amounts will be deducted proportionately from your Account Value in each Investment Option.

Procedures for selecting pre-authorized withdrawals are generally the same as those discussed in detail above for selecting dollar cost averaging, portfolio rebalancing, and earnings sweeps: You may make your request at any time and it will be effective when we receive it in a form satisfactory to us. If you stop the pre-authorized withdrawals, you must wait 30 days to begin again. Currently, we are not enforcing the 30-day waiting period but we reserve the right to enforce such waiting period in the future.

If your pre-authorized withdrawals cause your Account Value in any Investment Option to fall below $500, we have the right, at our option, to transfer that remaining Account Value to your other Investment Options on a proportionate basis relative to your most recent allocation instructions. If your pre-authorized withdrawals cause your Contract Value to fall below $1,000, we may, at our option, terminate your Contract and send you the remaining withdrawal proceeds.

Pre-authorized withdrawals are subject to the same withdrawal charges as are other withdrawals, and each withdrawal is subject to any applicable charge for premium taxes and/or other taxes, to federal income tax on its taxable portion, and, if you have not reached age 59 1/2, may be subject to a 10% federal tax penalty.

The standard death benefit payable will be calculated as of the date we receive, in a form satisfactory to us, proof of the Annuitant’s death (or, if applicable, the Contract Owner’s death) and instructions regarding payment. Any Guaranteed Minimum Death Benefit payable will be calculated as of the date we are first notified of the death. Any claim of a death benefit must be made in a form satisfactory to us. A recipient of death benefit proceeds may elect to have this benefit paid in one lump sum, in periodic payments, in the form of a lifetime annuity or in some combination of these. Annuity payments normally will begin within 30 days once we receive all information necessary to process the claim.

If your Contract names Joint or Contingent Annuitants, no death benefit will be payable unless and until the last Annuitant dies prior to the Annuity Date or a Contract Owner dies prior to the Annuity Date. If both the Contract Owner(s) and the Annuitant(s) are non-natural persons, no death benefit will be payable, and any distribution will be treated as a withdrawal and subject to any applicable charges for Annual Fees, transaction fees, withdrawal fees, premium taxes and/or other taxes, and withdrawal charges.

If a Joint Annuitant who is not a Contract Owner dies prior to the Annuity Date, the surviving Joint Annuitant becomes the Annuitant. If your Annuitant is not a Contract Owner and dies, or if there is no surviving Joint Annuitant, the surviving Contingent Annuitant becomes the Annuitant. If there is no surviving Contingent Annuitant, the death benefit becomes payable.

Any death benefit payable on the death of the Annuitant is payable to the surviving Beneficiary. If no Beneficiary survives, any death benefit will be payable to the surviving Owner, if there is one; if not, any death benefit will be payable to the Owner’s estate.

If any Contract Owner dies prior to the Annuity Date while the Annuitant is still living, a death benefit may be payable. If that Contract Owner was the sole Annuitant or a Joint Annuitant under the Contract, any death benefit will be payable to the surviving Beneficiary, or to the Owner’s estate if no Beneficiary survives. If that Contract Owner was not an Annuitant under the Contract, any death benefit will be payable to the surviving Joint Owner of the Contract, if there is one; if not, the death benefit will be payable to the surviving Contingent Owner, if there is one; if not, any death benefit will be payable to the surviving designated Beneficiary, or to the Owner’s estate if no designated Beneficiary survives. If the Joint or Contingent Owner is the deceased Contract Owner’s surviving spouse, he or she may elect to become the Contract Owner and continue the Contract rather than receive the death benefit proceeds.

On your Annuity Date, if your Contract was issued in connection with a Qualified Plan subject to Title I of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (“ERISA”), and you change your marital status after your Contract Date, you may be permitted to add a Joint Annuitant and to change your Joint Annuitant. Generally speaking, you may be permitted to add a new spouse as a Joint Annuitant, and you may be permitted to remove a Joint Annuitant who is no longer your spouse.

Section 817(h) of the Code provides that the investments underlying a variable annuity must satisfy certain diversification requirements. Details on these diversification requirements appear in the Pacific Select Fund SAI. We believe the underlying Variable Investment Options for the Contract meet these requirements. In connection with the issuance of temporary regulations relating to diversification requirements under Section 817(h), the Treasury Department announced that such regulations do not provide guidance concerning the extent to which you may direct your investments to particular divisions of a separate account. Such guidance may be included in regulations or revenue rulings under Section 817(d) relating to the definition of a variable contract. We reserve the right to make such changes as we deem necessary or appropriate to ensure that your Contract continues to qualify as an annuity for tax purposes. Any such changes will apply uniformly to affected Contract Owners and will be made with such notice to affected Contract Owners as is feasible under the circumstances.

For a variable life insurance contract or a variable annuity contract to qualify for tax deferral, assets in the separate accounts supporting the contract must be considered to be owned by the insurance company and not by the contract owner. Under current U.S. tax law, if a contract owner has excessive control over the investments made by a separate account, or the underlying fund, the contract owner will be taxed currently on income and gains from the account or fund. In other words, in such a case of “investor control” the contract owner would not derive the tax benefits normally associated with variable life insurance or variable annuities.

Generally, according to the IRS, there are two ways that impermissible investor control may exist. The first relates to the design of the contract or the relationship between the contract and a separate account or underlying fund. For example, at various times, the IRS has focused on, among other factors, the number and type of investment choices available pursuant to a given variable contract, whether the contract offers access to funds that are available to the general public, the number of transfers that a contract owner may make from one investment option to another, and the degree to which a contract owner may select or control particular investments.

With respect to this first aspect of investor control, we believe that the design of our contracts and the relationship between our contracts and the Portfolios satisfy the current view of the IRS on this subject, such that the investor control doctrine should not apply. However, because of some uncertainty with respect to this subject and because the IRS may issue further guidance on this subject, we reserve the right to make such changes as we deem necessary or appropriate to reduce the risk that your contract might not qualify as a life insurance contract or as an annuity for tax purposes.

The second way that impermissible investor control might exist concerns your actions. Under the IRS pronouncements, you may not select or control particular investments, other than choosing among broad investment choices

Finally, the IRS may issue additional guidance on the investor control doctrine, which might further restrict your actions or features of the variable contract. Such guidance could be applied retroactively. If any of the rules outlined above are not complied with, the IRS may seek to tax you currently on income and gains from a Portfolio such that you would not derive the tax benefits normally associated with variable life insurance or variable annuities. Although highly unlikely, such an event may have an adverse impact on the fund and other variable contracts. We urge you to consult your own tax adviser with respect to the application of the investor control doctrine.



	•	not subject to Title 1 of ERISA,



	•	issued under Section 403(b) of the Code, and



	•	permits loans under its terms (a “Loan Eligible Plan”).

You will be charged interest on your Contract Debt at a fixed annual rate equal to 5%. The amount held in the Loan Account to secure your loan will earn a return equal to an annual rate of 3%. This loan rate may vary by state.

We may change these loan provisions to reflect changes in the Code or interpretations thereof.

The tax and ERISA rules relating to Contract loans are complex and in many cases unclear. For these reasons, and because the rules vary depending on the individual circumstances, these loans are processed by your Plan Administrator. We urge you to consult with a qualified tax adviser prior to effecting any loan transaction under your Contract.

Generally, interest paid on your loan under a 403(b) tax-sheltered annuity will be considered non-deductible “personal interest” under Section 163(h) of the Code, to the extent the loan comes from and is secured by your pre-tax contributions, even if the proceeds of your loan are used to acquire your principal residence.

In order to secure your loan, on the effective date of your loan, we will transfer an amount equal to the principal amount of your loan into an account called the “Loan Account.” The Loan Account is held under the General Account. To make this transfer, we will transfer amounts proportionately from your Investment Options based on your Account Value in each Investment Option.

As your loan is repaid, a portion, corresponding to the amount of the repayment of any amount then held as security for your loan, will be transferred from the Loan Account back into your Investment Options relative to your most recent allocation instructions.

A transfer from the Loan Account back into your Investment Options following a loan repayment is not considered a transfer under the transfer limitations as stated in the HOW YOUR INVESTMENTS ARE ALLOCATED— Transfers and Market-timing Restrictions section in the Prospectus.



	•	50% of your Contract Value, or



	•	$50,000 less your highest outstanding Contract Debt during the 12-month period immediately preceding the effective date of your loan.

You should refer to the terms of your particular Loan Eligible Plan for any additional loan restrictions. If you have other loans outstanding pursuant to other Loan Eligible Plans, the amount you may borrow may be further restricted. We are not responsible for making any determination (including loan amounts permitted) or any interpretation with respect to your Loan Eligible Plan.

Your loan, including principal and accrued interest, generally must be repaid in quarterly installments. An installment will be due in each quarter on the date corresponding to the effective date of your loan, beginning with the first such date following the effective date of your loan. See the Qualified Contracts — Loans section in the Prospectus.

Adverse tax consequences may result if you fail to meet the repayment requirements for your loan. You must repay principal and interest of any loan in substantially equal payments over the term of the loan. Generally, the term of the loan will be 5 years from the effective date of the loan. However, if you have certified to us that your loan proceeds are to be used to acquire a principal residence for yourself, you may request a loan term of 30 years. In either case, however, you must repay your loan prior to your Annuity Date. If you elect to annuitize (or withdraw) your Net Contract Value while you have an outstanding loan, we will deduct any Contract Debt from your Contract Value at the time of the annuitization (or withdrawal) to repay the Contract Debt.

You may prepay your entire loan at any time. If you do so, we will bill you for any unpaid interest that has accrued through the date of payoff. Your loan will be considered repaid only when the interest due has been paid. Subject to any necessary approval of state insurance authorities, while you have Contract Debt outstanding, we will treat all payments you send us as Investments unless you specifically indicate that your payment is a loan repayment or include your loan payment notice with your payment. To the extent allowed by law, any loan repayments in excess of the amount then due will be applied to the principal balance of your loan. Such repayments will not change the due dates or the periodic repayment amount due for future periods. If a loan repayment is in excess of the principal balance of your loan, any excess repayment will be refunded to you. Repayments we receive that are less than the amount then due will be returned to you, unless otherwise required by law.

If we have not received your full payment by its due date, we will declare the entire remaining loan balance in default. At that time, we will send written notification of the amount needed to bring the loan back to a current status. You will have sixty (60) days from the date on which the loan was declared in default (the “grace period”) to make the required payment.

If the required payment is not received by the end of the grace period, the defaulted loan balance plus accrued interest and any withdrawal charge will be withdrawn from your Contract Value, if amounts under your Contract are eligible for distribution. In order for an amount to be eligible for distribution from a TSA funded by salary reductions you must meet one of five triggering events. The triggering events are:



	•	attainment of age 59 1/2,



	•	severance from employment,



	•	death,



	•	disability, and



	•	financial hardship (with respect to contributions only, not income or earnings on these contributions).

If those amounts are not eligible for distribution, the defaulted loan balance plus accrued interest and any withdrawal charge will be considered a Deemed Distribution and will be withdrawn when such Contract Values become eligible. In either case, the Distribution or the Deemed Distribution will be considered a currently taxable event, and may be subject to federal tax withholding, the withdrawal charge and may be subject to a 10% federal tax penalty.

If there is a Deemed Distribution under your Contract and to the extent allowed by law, any future withdrawals will first be applied as repayment of the defaulted Contract Debt, including accrued interest and charges for applicable taxes. Any amounts withdrawn and applied as repayment of Contract Debt will first be withdrawn from your Loan Account, and then from your Investment Options on a proportionate basis relative to the Account Value in each Investment Option. If you have an outstanding loan that is in default, the defaulted Contract Debt will be considered a withdrawal for the purpose of calculating any Death Benefit Amount and/or Guaranteed Minimum Death Benefit.

The terms of any such loan are intended to qualify for the exception in Code Section 72(p)(2) so that the distribution of the loan proceeds will not constitute a distribution that is taxable to you. To that end, these loan provisions will be interpreted to ensure and maintain such tax qualification, despite any other provisions to the contrary. Subject to any regulatory approval, we reserve the right to amend your Contract to reflect any clarifications that may be needed or are appropriate to maintain such tax qualification or to conform any terms of our loan arrangement with you to any applicable changes in the tax qualification requirements. We will send you a copy of any such amendment. If you refuse such an amendment, it may result in adverse tax consequences to you.

We are responsible for the safekeeping of the assets of the Separate Account. These assets are held separate and apart from the assets of our General Account and our other separate accounts.

The statements of assets and liabilities of Separate Account B as of December 31, 2007, the related statements of operations for the periods presented, the statements of changes in net assets for each of the periods presented and the financial highlights for each of the periods presented are incorporated by reference in this Statement of Additional Information from the Annual Report of Separate Account B dated December 31, 2007.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS’ REPORT

Pacific Life Insurance Company and Subsidiaries:

We have audited the accompanying consolidated statements of financial condition of Pacific Life Insurance Company and Subsidiaries (the Company) as of December 31, 2007 and 2006, and the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholder’s equity and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2007. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, such consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Pacific Life Insurance Company and Subsidiaries as of December 31, 2007 and 2006, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2007 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

As discussed in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements, in 2007 the Company changed its method of accounting and reporting for deferred acquisition costs in connection with modifications or exchanges of insurance contracts and for defined benefit pension and other postretirement plans.

As discussed in Note 6 to the consolidated financial statements, the accompanying consolidated financial statements have been reclassified to give effect to broker-dealer discontinued operations.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1.		ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

		ORGANIZATION AND DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS


		Pacific Life Insurance Company (Pacific Life) was established in 1868 and is domiciled in the State of Nebraska as a stock life insurance company. Pacific Life is an indirect subsidiary of Pacific Mutual Holding Company (PMHC), a Nebraska mutual holding company, and a wholly owned subsidiary of Pacific LifeCorp, an intermediate Delaware stock holding company. PMHC and Pacific LifeCorp were organized pursuant to consent received from the California Department of Insurance and the implementation of a plan of conversion to form a mutual holding company structure in 1997 (the Conversion).

		Pacific Life and its subsidiaries and affiliates have primary business operations consisting of life insurance, individual annuities, mutual funds, and pension and institutional products. Pacific Life’s primary business operations provide life insurance products, individual annuities and mutual funds, and offer to individuals, businesses, and pension plans a variety of investment products and services.

		Pacific Life transferred its legal domicile from the State of California to the State of Nebraska effective September 1, 2005. PMHC transferred its state of legal domicile from the State of California to the State of Nebraska, effective June 29, 2007, to reunite PMHC and Pacific Life under one regulatory authority.

		BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION


		The accompanying consolidated financial statements of Pacific Life and its subsidiaries (the Company) have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (U.S. GAAP) and include the accounts of Pacific Life and its majority owned and controlled subsidiaries and variable interest entities (VIEs) in which the Company was determined to be the primary beneficiary. All significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated. Included in other liabilities is minority interest of $181 million and $92 million as of December 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively.

		Pacific Life prepares its regulatory financial statements in accordance with statutory accounting practices prescribed or permitted by the Nebraska Department of Insurance (NE DOI), which is a comprehensive basis of accounting other than U.S. GAAP (Note 2). These consolidated financial statements materially differ from those filed with regulatory authorities.

		The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

		In developing these estimates, management makes subjective and complex judgments that are inherently uncertain and subject to material change as facts and circumstances develop. Management has identified the following estimates as significant, as they involve a higher degree of judgment and are subject to a significant degree of variability:

	•		The fair value of investments in the absence of quoted market values

	•		Investment impairments

	•		Application of the consolidation rules to certain investments

	•		The fair value of and accounting for derivatives

	•		The capitalization and amortization of deferred policy acquisition costs (DAC)

	•		The liability for future policyholder benefits

	•		Accounting for income taxes and the valuation of deferred income tax assets and liabilities and unrecognized tax benefits

	•		Accounting for reinsurance transactions

	•		Litigation and other contingencies

PL-7

		Certain reclassifications have been made to the 2006 and 2005 consolidated financial statements to conform to the 2007 financial statement presentation. The most significant conforming reclassification was reflecting the Company’s broker-dealer operations as a discontinued operation (Note 6).

		RECENTLY ADOPTED ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS


		Effective December 31, 2007, the Company adopted Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Statement of Financial Accounting Standard (SFAS) No. 158, Employers’ Accounting for Defined Benefit Pension and Other Postretirement Plans. This statement requires an employer to recognize the overfunded or underfunded status of a defined benefit postretirement plan as an asset or liability in its statement of financial condition and to recognize changes in that funded status in the year in which the changes occur through comprehensive income. The Company’s adoption of SFAS No. 158 resulted in a reduction to other comprehensive income (OCI) of $20 million, net of taxes.

		Effective January 1, 2007, the Company adopted FASB Interpretation No. (FIN) 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes, an Interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109. FIN 48 presents a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. There is a two-step evaluation process. The first step is recognition and a company must determine whether it is more likely than not that a tax position will be sustained. The second step is measurement. A tax position that meets the more likely than not recognition threshold should be measured as the largest amount of benefit that is greater than 50% likely of being realized upon ultimate settlement with a taxing authority that has full knowledge of all relevant information. FIN 48 also provides guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting in interim periods, disclosure and transition. The Company’s policy is to recognize interest expense and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits as a component of the provision for income taxes. The adoption of FIN 48 had no impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements, and therefore, there was no cumulative effect related to the adoption of FIN 48.

		Effective May 2, 2007, the Company adopted FASB Staff Position (FSP) No. FIN 48-1, Definition of Settlement in FASB Interpretation No. 48. This FSP amends FIN 48 to provide guidance on how to determine whether a tax position is effectively settled for the purpose of recognizing previously unrecognized tax benefits. This statement is effective upon the initial adoption of FIN 48 with retrospective application if the provisions of this FSP were not previously applied. The adoption of this FSP had no impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements, and therefore, there was no retrospective adjustment.

		Effective January 1, 2007, the Company adopted SFAS No. 155, Accounting for Certain Hybrid Instruments. SFAS No. 155 amends SFAS No. 133, Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities and SFAS No. 140, Accounting for Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets and Extinguishments of Liabilities, a replacement of FASB Statement No. 125. SFAS No. 155 (i) permits fair value remeasurement for any hybrid financial instrument that contains an embedded derivative that otherwise would require bifurcation; (ii) clarifies which interest-only strips and principal-only strips are not subject to the requirements of SFAS No. 133; (iii) establishes a requirement to evaluate interests in securitized financial assets to identify interests that are freestanding derivatives or that are hybrid financial instruments that contain an embedded derivative requiring bifurcation; (iv) clarifies that concentrations of credit risk in the form of subordination are not embedded derivatives; and (v) amends SFAS No. 140 to eliminate the prohibition on a qualifying special-purpose entity (SPE) from holding a derivative financial instrument that pertains to a beneficial interest other than another derivative financial instrument. The adoption of SFAS No. 155 did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

		Effective January 1, 2007, the Company adopted American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (AICPA) Statement of Position (SOP) 05-1, Accounting by Insurance Enterprises for Deferred Acquisition Costs in Connection With Modifications or Exchanges of Insurance Contracts. This SOP provides guidance on accounting for DAC on internal replacements on insurance and investment contracts other than those described in SFAS No. 97, Accounting and Reporting by Insurance Enterprises for Certain Long-Duration Contracts and for Realized Gains and Losses from the Sale of Investments. SOP 05-1 defines an internal replacement as a modification in product benefits, features, rights, or coverages that occur by the exchange of a contract for a new contract, or by amendment, endorsement, or rider to a contract, or by the election of a feature or coverage within a contract. SOP 05-1 is effective for internal replacements occurring in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006. In addition, in February 2007, the AICPA issued related Technical Practice Aids (TPAs) to provide further clarification of SOP 05-1. The TPAs became effective concurrently with the adoption of SOP 05-1. The adoption of SOP 05-1 and the related TPAs resulted in a

PL-8

reduction to DAC and the Company recorded a cumulative effect adjustment of $29 million, net of taxes, which was recorded as a reduction to retained earnings.

		In April 2006, the FASB issued FSP FIN 46(R)-6, Determining the Variability to Be Considered in Applying FASB Interpretation No. 46(R). This FSP addresses how an entity determines the variability to be considered in applying FIN 46 (revised December 2003), Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities, an Interpretation of ARB No. 51 (FIN 46(R)). The variability affects the determination of whether an entity is a VIE, which interests are variable interests in an entity, and which party is the primary beneficiary of the VIE. That variability affects any calculation of expected losses and expected residual returns, if such a calculation is necessary. FSP FIN 46(R)-6 was effective for the Company beginning July 1, 2006. Adoption did not impact the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

		Effective January 1, 2006, the Company adopted SFAS No. 154, Accounting Changes and Error Corrections. This statement changes the requirements for the accounting for and reporting of a change in accounting principle and applies to all voluntary changes in accounting principle as well as changes required by a new accounting pronouncement. It establishes, unless impracticable, retrospective application as the required method for reporting a change in accounting principle in the absence of explicit transition requirements specific to a newly adopted accounting principle.

		Effective January 1, 2006, the Company adopted FSP SFAS No. 115-1 and SFAS No. 124-1, The Meaning of Other-Than-Temporary Impairment and Its Application to Certain Investments. The guidance within this FSP is applicable to debt and equity securities that are within the scope of SFAS No. 115, Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities. This FSP nullifies certain requirements of Emerging Issues Task Force (EITF) Issue No. 03-1, The Meaning of Other-Than-Temporary Impairment and Its Application to Certain Investments, regarding the recognition of other than temporary impairments and restores the guidance for determination of other than temporary impairment to SFAS No. 115, EITF Issue No. 99-20, Recognition of Interest Income and Impairment on Purchased and Retained Beneficial Interests in Securitized Financial Assets, and Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 18, The Equity Method of Accounting for Investments in Common Stock. This FSP adopts the disclosure requirements of EITF Issue No. 03-1. For other than temporarily impaired debt securities, the investor will account for the debt security as if the debt security was purchased on the measurement date of the other than temporary impairment. The discount recorded for the debt security will be amortized over the remaining life of the debt security as a yield adjustment. Adoption did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

		Under FIN 46, Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities, an Interpretation of ARB No. 51, the consolidation requirements for the Company’s VIEs, created prior to December 31, 2003, were applied effective January 1, 2005. The Company determined that it is the primary beneficiary of a Collateralized Debt Obligation (CDO) VIE of high-yield debt securities that it sponsored in 1998 (Note 4). In accordance with the transition provisions of FIN 46(R), the Company increased assets $67 million, liabilities $65 million, including non-recourse debt of $62 million, accumulated other comprehensive income (AOCI) $4 million and decreased net income by $2 million as a cumulative adjustment due to a change in accounting principle upon the adoption of FIN 46(R).

		FUTURE ADOPTION OF NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS


		In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 160, Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements — an amendment of ARB No. 51. SFAS No. 160 improves the relevance, comparability and transparency of the financial information that a company provides in its consolidated financial statements by establishing accounting and reporting standards for the noncontrolling interest in a subsidiary and for the deconsolidation of a subsidiary. This statement is effective beginning January 1, 2009. The Company is evaluating the impact of SFAS No. 160 on its consolidated financial statements.

		In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 141(R), Business Combinations, which replaces SFAS No. 141, Business Combinations. SFAS No. 141(R) establishes principles and requirements for how the acquirer recognizes and measures in its financial statements the identifiable assets acquired, the liabilities assumed, and any noncontrolling interest in the acquiree, recognizes and measures the goodwill acquired in the business combination and determines what information to disclose to enable users of the financial statements to evaluate the nature and financial effects of the business combination. This statement is effective beginning January 1, 2009. The Company is evaluating the impact of SFAS No. 141(R) on its consolidated financial statements.

PL-9

		In April 2007, the FASB issued FSP No. FIN 39-1, Amendment of FASB Interpretation No. 39. FSP FIN 39-1 amends FIN No. 39, Offsetting of Amounts Related to Certain Contracts, to permit a reporting entity to offset fair value amounts recognized for the right to reclaim cash collateral (a receivable) or the obligation to return cash collateral (a payable) against fair value amounts recognized for derivative instruments executed with the same counterparty under the same master netting arrangement that have been offset in accordance with FIN 39. FSP FIN 39-1 also amends FIN 39 for certain terminology modifications. This statement permits offsetting of fair value amounts recognized for derivative instruments under master netting arrangements. FSP FIN 39-1 is effective beginning January 1, 2008 and adoption is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

		In February 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 159, The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities — Including an amendment of FASB Statement No. 115. This statement permits companies to choose to measure many financial instruments and certain other items at fair value that are not currently required to be measured at fair value. This statement also establishes presentation and disclosure requirements designed to facilitate comparisons between entities that choose different measurement attributes for similar types of assets and liabilities. This statement is effective beginning January 1, 2008. Adoption of SFAS No. 159 is not expected to have any impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

		In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 157, Fair Value Measurements. This statement creates a common definition of fair value to be used throughout U.S. GAAP. SFAS No. 157 will apply whenever another standard requires or permits assets or liabilities to be measured at fair value, with certain exceptions. The standard establishes a hierarchy for determining fair value, which emphasizes the use of observable market data whenever available. The statement also requires expanded disclosures, which include the extent to which assets and liabilities are measured at fair value, the methods and assumptions used to measure fair value and the effect of fair value measures on earnings. This statement is effective beginning January 1, 2008. Adoption is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

		INVESTMENTS


		Fixed maturity and equity securities available for sale are reported at estimated fair value, with unrealized gains and losses, net of deferred income taxes and adjustments related to DAC and future policy benefits, recorded as a component of OCI. For mortgage-backed securities and asset-backed securities (ABS) included in fixed maturity securities available for sale, the Company recognizes income using a constant effective yield based on anticipated prepayments and the estimated economic life of the securities. When estimates of prepayments change, the effective yield is recalculated to reflect actual payments to date and anticipated future payments. For fixed rate securities, the net investment in the securities is adjusted to the amount that would have existed had the new effective yield been applied since the acquisition of the securities. These adjustments are reflected in net investment income. Trading securities are reported at estimated fair value with changes in estimated fair value included in net realized investment gain (loss).

		Investment income consists primarily of interest and dividends, net investment income from partnership interests, prepayment fees on fixed maturity securities and mortgage loans, and income from certain derivatives. Interest is recognized on an accrual basis and dividends are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Amortization of premium and accretion of discount on fixed maturity securities is recorded using the effective interest method.

		The estimated fair value of fixed maturity and equity securities is generally obtained from independent pricing services. For fixed maturity securities not able to be priced by independent services (generally private placement and low volume traded securities), an internally developed matrix is used. The matrix utilizes the fair market yield curves, provided by a major independent data service, which determines the discount yield based upon the security’s weighted-average life, rating, and liquidity spread. The estimated fair value of the security is calculated as the present value of the estimated cash flows discounted at the yield determined above. For those securities not priced externally or by the matrix, the estimated fair value is internally determined, utilizing various techniques in valuing complex investments with variable cash flows. Equity securities available for sale include common stocks that have a readily determinable fair value and perpetual preferred stocks.

PL-10

The following table identifies the estimated fair value of fixed maturity securities by pricing sources:


	December 31, 2007					December 31, 2006
	Fixed Maturities		% of			Fixed Maturities		% of
	at Estimated		Estimated			at Estimated		Estimated
	Fair Value		Fair Value			Fair Value		Fair Value

	(In Millions)
Independent market quotations	$	19,815		73.8	%	$	19,708		76.4	%
Matrix-priced		5,743		21.4	%		5,455		21.2	%
Other methods		1,296		4.8	%		620		2.4	%

	$	26,854		100.0	%	$	25,783		100.0	%

		The matrix-priced securities primarily consist of private placements and have an average duration of four and a half years as of December 31, 2007 and 2006.

		The Company assesses whether other than temporary impairments have occurred based upon the Company’s case-by-case evaluation of the underlying reasons for the decline in estimated fair value. All securities with a gross unrealized loss at the consolidated statement of financial condition date are subjected to the Company’s process for identifying other than temporary impairments. The Company considers a wide range of factors, as described below, about the security issuer and uses its best judgment in evaluating the cause of the decline in the estimated fair value of the security and in assessing the prospects for near-term recovery. Inherent in the Company’s evaluation of each security are assumptions and estimates about the operations of the issuer and its future earnings potential.

		Considerations used by the Company in the impairment evaluation process include, but are not limited to, the following:

	•		The duration and extent that the estimated fair value has been below net carrying amount

	•		Industry factors or conditions related to a geographic area that are negatively affecting the security

	•		Underlying valuation of assets specifically pledged to support the credit

	•		Past due interest or principal payments or other violation of covenants

	•		Deterioration of the overall financial condition of the specific issuer

	•		Downgrades by a rating agency

	•		Ability and intent to hold the investment for a period of time to allow for a recovery of value

	•		Fundamental analysis of the liquidity and financial condition of the specific issuer

		Also, the Company estimates the cash flows over the life of certain purchased beneficial interests in securitized financial assets. Based upon current information and events, if the estimated fair value of its beneficial interests is less than or equal to its net carrying amount and if there has been an adverse change in the estimated cash flows since the last revised estimate, considering both timing and amount, then an other than temporary impairment is recognized.

		Securities and purchased beneficial interests that are deemed to be other than temporarily impaired are written down to estimated fair value in the period the securities or purchased beneficial interest are deemed to be impaired.

		Realized gains and losses on investment transactions are determined on a specific identification basis and are included in net realized investment gain (loss). The Company also includes other than temporary impairment write-downs in net realized investment gain (loss).

		Mortgage loans on real estate are carried at their unpaid principal balance, net of deferred origination fees, valuation allowances and write-downs. Mortgage loans are considered to be impaired when management estimates that based upon current information and events, it is probable that the Company will not be able to collect amounts due according to the contractual terms of the mortgage loan agreement. For mortgage loans deemed to be impaired, a valuation allowance is established for the difference between the carrying amount and the Company’s estimate of the present value of the expected future cash flows discounted at the current market rate. Changes to the valuation allowance are recorded in net realized investment gain (loss). Policy loans are stated at unpaid principal balances.

PL-11

		Other investments primarily consist of partnership and joint ventures, real estate investments, derivative instruments, non marketable equity securities, and low income housing related investments qualifying for tax credits (LIHTC). Partnership and joint venture interests where the Company does not have a controlling interest or majority ownership are recorded under the cost or equity method of accounting depending on the equity ownership position. Real estate investments are carried at depreciated cost, net of write-downs, or, for real estate acquired in satisfaction of debt, estimated fair value less estimated selling costs at the date of acquisition, if lower than the related unpaid balance.

		All derivatives, whether designated in hedging relationships or not, are required to be recorded at estimated fair value. If the derivative is designated as a cash flow hedge, the effective portion of changes in the estimated fair value of the derivative is recorded in OCI and recognized in earnings when the hedged item affects earnings. If the derivative is designated as a fair value hedge, the changes in the estimated fair value of the derivative and the hedged item are recognized in net realized investment gain (loss). The change in value of the hedged item associated with the risk being hedged is reflected as an adjustment to the carrying amount of the hedged item. For derivative instruments not designated as hedges, the change in estimated fair value of the derivative is recorded in net realized investment gain (loss). Estimated fair value exposure is calculated based on the aggregate estimated fair value of all derivative instruments with each counterparty, net of collateral received, in accordance with legally enforceable counterparty master netting agreements (Note 9).

		The periodic cash flows for all hedging derivatives are recorded consistent with the hedged item on an accrual basis. For derivatives that are hedging securities, these amounts are included in net investment income. For derivatives that are hedging liabilities, these amounts are included in interest credited to policyholder account balances. For derivatives not designated as hedging instruments, the periodic cash flows are reflected in net realized investment gain (loss) on an accrual basis. Upon termination of a cash flow hedging relationship, the accumulated amount in OCI is amortized into net investment income or interest credited to policyholder account balances over the remaining life of the hedged item. Upon termination of a fair value hedging relationship, the accumulated cost basis adjustment to the hedged item is amortized into net investment income or interest credited to policyholder account balances over its remaining life.

		Investments in LIHTC are recorded under either the effective interest method, if they meet certain requirements, including a projected positive yield based solely on guaranteed credits, or are recorded under the equity method if these certain requirements are not met. For investments in LIHTC recorded under the effective interest method, the amortization of the original investment and the tax credits are recorded in the provision for income taxes. For investments in LIHTC recorded under the equity method, the amortization of the initial investment is included in net investment income, and the related tax credits are recorded in the provision for income taxes. The amortization recorded in net investment income was $20 million, $24 million and $23 million for the years ended December 31, 2007, 2006 and 2005, respectively.

		CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS


		Cash and cash equivalents include all investments with an original maturity of three months or less.

		DEFERRED POLICY ACQUISITION COSTS


		The costs of acquiring new insurance business, principally commissions, medical examinations, underwriting, policy issue and other expenses, all of which vary with and are primarily associated with the production of new business, are deferred and recorded as an asset commonly referred to as DAC. DAC related to internally replaced contracts (as defined by SOP 05-1), is immediately written off to expense and any new deferrable expenses associated with the replacement are deferred if the contract modification substantially changes the contract. However, if the contract modification does not substantially change the contract, the existing DAC asset remains in place and any acquisition costs associated with the modification are immediately expensed. As of December 31, 2007 and 2006, the carrying value of DAC was $4.5 billion and $4.2 billion, respectively (Note 7).

		For universal life (UL), variable annuities and other investment-type contracts, acquisition costs are amortized through earnings in proportion to the present value of estimated gross profits (EGPs) from projected investment, mortality and expense margins, and surrender charges over the estimated lives of the contracts. Actual gross margins or profits can vary from management’s estimates, which can increase or decrease the rate of DAC amortization. DAC related to traditional policies is amortized through earnings over the premium-paying period of the related policies in proportion to premium revenues recognized, using assumptions and estimates consistent with those used in computing policy

PL-12

reserves. DAC related to certain unrealized components in OCI, primarily unrealized gains and losses on securities available for sale, is recorded directly to equity through OCI.

		Significant assumptions in the development of EGPs include investment returns, surrender and lapse rates, rider utilization, interest spreads, and mortality margins. The Company’s long-term assumption for the underlying separate account investment return ranges up to 8.0%.

		A change in the assumptions utilized to develop EGPs results in a change to amounts expensed in the reporting period in which the change was made by adjusting the DAC balance to the level DAC would have been had the EGPs been calculated using the new assumptions over the entire amortization period. In general, favorable experience variances result in increased expected future profitability and may lower the rate of DAC amortization, whereas unfavorable experience variances result in decreased expected future profitability and may increase the rate of DAC amortization. All critical assumptions utilized to develop EGPs are evaluated at least annually and necessary revisions are made to future EGPs to the extent that actual or anticipated experience necessitates such a prospective change (Note 7).

		The Company defers sales inducements and amortizes them over the life of the policy using the same methodology and assumptions used to amortize DAC. The Company offers a sales inducement to the policyholder where the policyholder receives a bonus credit, typically ranging from 4.0% to 5.0% of each deposit. The capitalized sales inducement balances included in the DAC asset were $552 million and $538 million as of December 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively.

		GOODWILL FROM ACQUISITIONS


		The Company’s acquisitions are accounted for under the purchase method of accounting. Goodwill from acquisitions, included in other assets, totaled $15 million and $22 million as of December 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively. There were no goodwill impairment write-downs from continuing operations during the years ended December 31, 2007, 2006 and 2005.

		POLICYHOLDER ACCOUNT BALANCES


		Policyholder account balances on UL and investment-type contracts, such as funding agreements, fixed account liabilities and guaranteed interest contracts (GICs), are valued using the retrospective deposit method and are equal to accumulated account values, which consist of deposits received, plus interest credited, less withdrawals and assessments. Interest credited to these contracts primarily ranged from 2.0% to 8.0%.

		FUTURE POLICY BENEFITS


		Annuity reserves, which primarily consist of group retirement and structured settlement annuities, are equal to the present value of estimated future payments using pricing assumptions, as applicable, for interest rates, mortality, morbidity, retirement age and expenses. Interest rates used in establishing such liabilities ranged from 1.6% to 11.0%.

		Policy charges assessed against policyholders that represent compensation to the Company for services to be provided in future periods, or unearned revenue reserves, are recognized in income over the expected life of the contract using the same methods and assumptions used to amortize DAC. Unearned revenue related to certain unrealized components in OCI, primarily unrealized gains and losses on securities available for sale, is recorded directly to equity through OCI.

		Life insurance reserves are valued using the net level premium method on the basis of actuarial assumptions appropriate at policy issue. Mortality and persistency assumptions are generally based on the Company’s experience, which, together with interest and expense assumptions, include a margin for possible unfavorable deviations. Interest rate assumptions ranged from 4.5% to 9.3%. Future dividends for participating business are provided for in the liability for future policy benefits.

		As of December 31, 2007 and 2006, participating experience rated policies paying dividends represent less than 1% of direct life insurance in force.

		Estimates of future policy benefit reserves and liabilities are continually reviewed and, as experience develops, are adjusted as necessary. Such changes in estimates are included in earnings for the period in which such changes occur.

PL-13

		REVENUES, BENEFITS AND EXPENSES


		Insurance premiums, annuity contracts with life contingencies and traditional life and term insurance contracts, are recognized as revenue when due. Benefits and expenses are matched against such revenues to recognize profits over the lives of the contracts. This matching is accomplished by providing for liabilities for future policy benefits, expenses of contract administration and the amortization of DAC.

		Receipts for UL and investment-type contracts are reported as deposits to either policyholder account balances or separate account liabilities, and are not included in revenue. Policy fees consist of mortality charges, surrender charges and expense charges that have been earned and assessed against related account values during the period. The timing of policy fee revenue recognition is determined based on the nature of the fees. Certain amounts assessed that represent compensation for services to be provided in future periods are reported as unearned revenue and recognized in revenue over the periods benefited. Benefits and expenses include policy benefits and claims incurred in the period that are in excess of related policyholder account balances, interest credited to policyholder account balances, expenses of contract administration and the amortization of DAC.

		Reinsurance premiums ceded and reinsurance recoveries on benefits and claims incurred are deducted from their respective revenue and benefit and expense accounts.

		Investment advisory fees are primarily fees earned from the Pacific Select Fund, the investment vehicle provided to the Company’s variable universal life (VUL) and variable annuity contract holders. These fees are based upon the net asset value of the underlying portfolios, and are recorded as earned. Related subadvisory expense is included in operating expenses and recorded when incurred.

		DEPRECIATION AND AMORTIZATION


		Depreciation of investment real estate is computed using the straight-line method over estimated useful lives, which range from 5 to 30 years. Depreciation of investment real estate is included in net investment income. Certain other assets are depreciated or amortized using the straight-line method over estimated useful lives, which range from 3 to 40 years. Depreciation and amortization of certain other assets are included in operating expenses.

		INCOME TAXES


		Pacific Life and its includable subsidiaries are included in the consolidated Federal income tax return of PMHC. Pacific Life and its wholly owned, Arizona domiciled life insurance subsidiary, Pacific Life & Annuity Company (PL&A), and Pacific Alliance Reinsurance Company of Vermont (PAR Vermont), a Vermont-based life reinsurance company wholly owned by Pacific Life, are taxed as life insurance companies for Federal income tax purposes. Pacific Life’s non-insurance subsidiaries are either included in PMHC’s combined California franchise tax return or, if necessary, file separate state tax returns. Companies included in the consolidated Federal income tax return of PMHC and/or the combined California franchise tax return of PMHC are allocated tax expense or benefit based principally on the effect of including their operations in PMHC’s returns under a tax sharing agreement. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years the differences are expected to be recovered or settled.

		SEPARATE ACCOUNTS


		Separate accounts primarily include variable annuity and life contracts, as well as other guaranteed and non-guaranteed accounts. Separate account assets and liabilities are recorded at estimated fair value and represent legally segregated contract holder funds. Deposits to separate accounts, investment income and realized and unrealized gains and losses on the separate account assets accrue directly to contract holders and, accordingly, are not reflected in the consolidated statements of operations or cash flows. Amounts charged to the separate account for mortality, surrender and expense charges are included in revenues as policy fees.

		In accordance with SOP 03-1, Accounting and Reporting by Insurance Enterprises for Certain Non Traditional Long-Duration Contracts and for Separate Accounts, for separate account funding agreements where the Company provides a

PL-14

guarantee of principal and interest to the contract holder and the Company bears all the risks and rewards of the investments underlying the separate account, the related investments and liabilities are recognized as investments and liabilities in the consolidated statements of financial condition. Revenue and expenses are recognized within the respective revenue, and benefit and expense lines in the consolidated statements of operations.

		FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS


		The estimated fair value of financial instruments, disclosed in Notes 8, 9 and 12, has been determined using available market information and appropriate valuation methodologies. However, considerable judgment is often required to interpret market data to develop the estimates of fair value. Accordingly, the estimates presented may not be indicative of the amounts the Company could realize in a current market exchange. The use of different market assumptions and/or estimation methodologies could have a significant effect on the estimated fair value amounts.

2.		STATUTORY FINANCIAL INFORMATION AND DIVIDEND RESTRICTIONS

		STATUTORY ACCOUNTING PRACTICES


		Pacific Life prepares its regulatory statutory financial statements in accordance with statutory accounting practices prescribed or permitted by the NE DOI, which is a comprehensive basis of accounting other than U.S. GAAP. Statutory accounting practices primarily differ from U.S. GAAP by charging policy acquisition costs to expense as incurred, recognizing certain policy fees as revenue when billed, establishing future policy benefit liabilities using different actuarial assumptions, reporting surplus notes as surplus instead of debt, as well as valuing investments and certain assets and accounting for deferred income taxes on a different basis.

		As a result of Pacific Life’s use of a NE DOI permitted accounting practice and a NE DOI prescribed accounting practice that differs from statutory accounting practices adopted by the National Association of Insurance Commissioners (NAIC), Pacific Life’s statutory capital and surplus as of December 31, 2007 did not reflect a net unrealized loss of $45 million. This net unrealized loss primarily relates to certain statutory separate account assets that are carried at book value instead of estimated fair value. Pacific Life’s statutory capital and surplus as of December 31, 2006 did not reflect a net gain of $5 million related to these practices.

		STATUTORY NET INCOME AND SURPLUS


		Statutory net income of Pacific Life was $362 million, $362 million and $234 million for the years ended December 31, 2007, 2006 and 2005, respectively. Statutory capital and surplus of Pacific Life was $3,708 million and $3,218 million as of December 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively.

		RISK-BASED CAPITAL


		Risk-based capital is a method developed by the NAIC to measure the minimum amount of capital appropriate for an insurance company to support its overall business operations in consideration of its size and risk profile. The formulas for determining the amount of risk-based capital specify various weighting factors that are applied to financial balances or various levels of activity based on the perceived degree of risk. Additionally, certain risks are required to be measured using actuarial cash flow modeling techniques, subject to formulaic minimums. The adequacy of a company’s actual capital is measured by the risk-based capital results, as determined by the formulas. Companies below minimum risk-based capital requirements are classified within certain levels, each of which requires specified corrective action. As of December 31, 2007 and 2006, Pacific Life, PL&A and PAR Vermont exceeded the minimum risk-based capital requirements.

		DIVIDEND RESTRICTIONS


		The payment of dividends by Pacific Life to Pacific LifeCorp is subject to restrictions set forth in the State of Nebraska insurance laws. These laws require (i) notification to the NE DOI for the declaration and payment of any dividend and (ii) approval by the NE DOI for accumulated dividends within the preceding twelve months that exceed the greater of 10% of statutory policyholder surplus as of the preceding December 31 or statutory net gain from operations for the preceding twelve months ended December 31. Generally, these restrictions pose no short-term liquidity concerns for

PL-15

Pacific LifeCorp. Based on these restrictions and 2007 statutory results, Pacific Life could pay $350 million in dividends in 2008 to Pacific LifeCorp without prior approval from the NE DOI, subject to the notification requirement.

		During the year ended December 31, 2006, Pacific Life paid two dividends totaling $185 million to Pacific LifeCorp; a $25 million dividend, consisting of $9 million in cash and a real estate investment with an estimated fair value of $16 million, and a $160 million cash dividend. No dividends were paid during 2007 and 2005.

		The maximum amount of ordinary dividends that can be paid by PL&A to Pacific Life without restriction cannot exceed the lesser of 10% of statutory surplus as regards to policyholders, or the statutory net gain from operations. Based on this limitation and 2007 statutory results, PL&A could pay $6 million in dividends to Pacific Life in 2008 without prior regulatory approval. No dividends were paid during 2007, 2006 and 2005.

3.		CLOSED BLOCK

		In connection with the Conversion, an arrangement known as a closed block (the Closed Block) was established, for dividend purposes only, for the exclusive benefit of certain individual life insurance policies that had an experience based dividend scale for 1997. The Closed Block was designed to give reasonable assurance to holders of the Closed Block policies that policy dividends will not change solely as a result of the Conversion.

		Assets that support the Closed Block, which are primarily included in fixed maturity securities and policy loans, amounted to $284 million and $280 million as of December 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively. Liabilities allocated to the Closed Block, which are primarily included in future policy benefits, amounted to $308 million and $306 million as of December 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively. The net contribution to income from the Closed Block was insignificant for the years ended December 31, 2007, 2006 and 2005.

PRIVATE EQUITY FUND

Private equity fund is a limited partnership that was established in July 2005 and is the general partner of two funds that invest in private equity funds for outside investors. The Company provides investment management services to the fund for a fee and receives carried interest based upon the performance of the fund. The Company has not guaranteed the performance, liquidity or obligations of the fund, and the Company’s maximum exposure to loss is equal to the carrying amounts. The Company was determined to be the primary beneficiary of this VIE and it is consolidated into the financial statements of the Company.

WAREHOUSE FACILITY

The Company determined that it was the primary beneficiary of a warehouse facility that it sponsored in 2007 for the purpose of issuing a collateralized loan obligation. The Company has not guaranteed the performance, liquidity or obligations of the warehouse facility. The maximum exposure to loss is limited to the carrying amounts of the retained interests, which represent the equity in the facility. This facility was consolidated into the financial statements of the Company. Non-recourse debt consolidated from the facility was $13 million as of December 31, 2007.

COLLATERALIZED DEBT OBLIGATIONS

The Company is the collateral manager and beneficial interest holder of CDOs of high yield debt securities. As the collateral manager, the Company earns management fees on the outstanding asset balance, which are recorded in net investment income as earned. The collateral management fees were insignificant for the years ended December 31, 2007, 2006 and 2005. The Company has not guaranteed the performance, liquidity or obligations of the CDO. The maximum exposure to loss is limited to the carrying amounts of retained interests.

The Company determined that it is the primary beneficiary of a CDO that it sponsored in 1998 and it is consolidated into the financial statements of the Company. Non-recourse debt consolidated from this CDO was $2 million and $22 million as of December 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively. There were two other CDOs not consolidated by the Company as the Company had determined that it was not the primary beneficiary of these entities. These two entities were fully repaid during the year ended December 31, 2007, and the Company is no longer the collateral manager.

ASSET-BACKED SECURITIES

As part of the Company’s investment strategy, the Company purchases primarily investment grade beneficial interests in ABS. These beneficial interests are issued from bankruptcy-remote SPEs, which are collateralized by financial assets including corporate debt. The Company has not guaranteed the performance, liquidity or obligations of the SPEs, and the Company’s maximum exposure to loss is limited to its carrying value of the beneficial interests in the SPEs. The ABS investments are not consolidated by the Company as the Company has determined that it is not the primary beneficiary of these entities.

ASSET MANAGEMENT FINANCE CORP.

On August 1, 2007, Pacific Life sold its 43% common stock ownership in Asset Management Finance Corp. (AMFC), a financial advisor for investment management firms, and recognized a pre-tax gain of $16 million. Pacific Life was determined not to be the primary beneficiary of the VIE and AMFC was not consolidated into the financial statements of the Company. As of December 31, 2007 and 2006, $20 million in subordinated debt that Pacific Life funded to AMFC was outstanding.

INTEREST IN PIMCO

The Company owns a beneficial economic interest in Pacific Investment Management Company LLC (PIMCO) through Allianz Global Investors of America LLC (interest in PIMCO). PIMCO offers investment products through managed accounts and institutional, retail and offshore mutual funds. The interest in PIMCO is reported in other investments at estimated fair value, as determined by the put and call option price described below, with changes in estimated fair value reported as a component of OCI, net of taxes. As of December 31, 2007 and 2006, the interest in PIMCO had an estimated fair value of $288 million and $286 million, respectively.

PL-17

In May 2000, Allianz of America, Inc. (Allianz), a subsidiary of Allianz SE, acquired substantially all interests in PIMCO, other than those beneficially owned by the Company. In connection with this transaction, the interest in PIMCO is subject to a Continuing Investment Agreement (Agreement) with Allianz that provides for put options held by the Company, and call options held by Allianz. The per unit value, as determined by a formula in the Agreement, is subject to a cap and a floor of $600,000 and $500,000 per unit, respectively. The per unit value reached the cap of $600,000 as of June 30, 2007 and was $600,000 as of December 31, 2007 and $596,084 as of December 31, 2006. In January 2005, the Company and Allianz reached an agreement whereby Allianz agreed to pay an additional $5,373 per unit for all of the Company’s interest in PIMCO. The higher unit price was applied retroactively to all units previously sold and will be applied prospectively to the sale of all remaining units. The Company recognized a pre-tax gain of $1 million and $17 million during the years ended December 31, 2006 and 2005, respectively, related to this agreement.

During the year ended December 31, 2006, Allianz exercised a call option of $88 million to purchase a portion of the Company’s interest in PIMCO. The pre-tax gain recognized for the year ended December 31, 2006 was $31 million.

During the year ended December 31, 2005, Allianz exercised a call option and bought approximately $250 million of the Company’s interest in PIMCO. The pre-tax gain recognized for the year ended December 31, 2005 was $87 million.

During the first quarter of 2008, the Company exercised a put option and sold all of its remaining interest in PIMCO to Allianz for $288 million.

DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS

The Company’s broker-dealer operations and group insurance business have been reflected as discontinued operations in the Company’s consolidated financial statements. Discontinued operations do not include the operations of Pacific Select Distributors, Inc. (PSD), a wholly owned broker-dealer subsidiary of Pacific Life, which primarily serves as the underwriter/distributor of registered investment-related products and services, principally variable life and variable annuity contracts issued by the Company, and mutual funds.

In March 2007, the Company classified its broker-dealer subsidiaries, other than PSD, as held for sale. On June 20, 2007, a transaction closed whereby the Company sold certain of these broker-dealer subsidiaries to an unrelated third-party. Proceeds from the sale included cash of $53 million and a common stock interest in the buyer’s parent of $57 million. A pre-tax gain of $54 million was recognized from this sale. On December 31, 2007, a transaction closed whereby the Company sold another one of its broker-dealer subsidiaries to subsidiary management. The Company incurred a pre-tax loss of $1 million from this transaction. As of December 31, 2007, one broker-dealer subsidiary remained classified as held for sale. On February 1, 2008, the Company signed a definitive agreement to sell this held for sale subsidiary to an unrelated third-party. The Company does not anticipate incurring a significant loss from this transaction. The transaction is expected to close in the first quarter of 2008, subject to regulatory approval.

On April 27, 2005 (Closing Date), the Company sold its group insurance business to an unrelated third-party. The transaction is structured as a coinsurance arrangement whereby the Company cedes to the buyer future premiums received for its existing group insurance business and the buyer assumes future claim liabilities following the Closing Date. Group insurance business liabilities arising prior to the Closing Date will not be reinsured. The buyer also obtained renewal rights for the existing business as of the Closing Date.

The Company has evaluated fixed maturity and other securities with gross unrealized losses and determined that the unrealized losses are temporary and that the Company has the ability and intent to hold the securities until recovery.

Sub-prime mortgage lending is the origination of residential loans to customers with weak credit profiles. Alt-A mortgage lending is the origination of residential mortgage loans to customers who have credit ratings above sub-prime, but do not conform to government-sponsored enterprise standards. The slowing U.S. housing market, greater use of affordability mortgage products and relaxed underwriting standards for some originators for these loans has led to higher delinquency and loss rates, especially within the 2007 and 2006 vintage years.

The Company has exposure to sub-prime and Alt-A residential loans through direct purchases of residential mortgage-backed securities. These securities are included in the table above as mortgage-backed and asset-backed securities. The Company’s net carrying value and estimated fair value of direct investments to sub-prime residential mortgage-backed securities was $532 million and $514 million, respectively, as of December 31, 2007. 79% of these securities are rated Aaa and 19% Aa by an independent rating agency. The vintage year break-down of the underlying collateral for these securities is 2% originated during 2007, 1% during 2006, 22% during 2005, 34% during 2004 and 41% during 2003 and prior. The Company’s net carrying value and estimated fair value of direct investments to Alt-A residential mortgage-backed securities was $991 million and $972 million, respectively, as of December 31, 2007.

PL-23

99% of these securities are rated Aaa by an independent rating agency. The vintage year break-down of the underlying collateral for these securities is 56% originated during 2007, 31% during 2006 and 13% during 2005 and prior.

The Company’s net carrying amount and estimated fair value of investments in CDOs that have exposure to sub-prime residential mortgage loans are both $58 million as of December 31, 2007. The ratings distribution of these holdings as of December 31, 2007 is 16% A, 74% A-, 5% Baa and 5% Baa-, as determined by an independent rating agency. Other than temporary impairments of $73 million were recorded for these investments during the year ended December 31, 2007, based upon projections of estimated future cash flows.

Monoline insurers guarantee the timely payment of principal and interest of certain securities. The Company’s net carrying value and estimated fair value of total monoline insured securities was $1.1 billion and $1.3 billion, respectively, as of December 31, 2007. Included in these amounts are monoline insured municipal securities with a net carrying value and estimated fair value of $877 million and $1.1 billion, respectively, as of December 31, 2007. Municipalities will often purchase monoline insurance to wrap a security issuance in order to benefit from better market execution. 100% of the overall credit quality of the municipal bond portfolio, including the benefits of monoline insurance, was rated AAA by an independent rating agency. The Company’s direct investments in monoline insurers are immaterial.

Assets with an estimated fair value of $1.7 billion as of December 31, 2007 are in a custodial account pledged as collateral to support $1.7 billion in funding agreements issued to the Federal Home Loan Bank (FHLB) of Topeka, which are included in policyholder account balances. Additional assets with an estimated fair value of $2.0 billion are also on deposit at the FHLB of Topeka in the custodian account and could be used for future issuances of funding agreements and other corporate debt. The Company maintains control over these assets.

The Company loans securities in connection with its securities lending program administered by a qualified financial institution. The Company requires an amount equal to 102% of the estimated fair value of the loaned securities to be separately maintained as collateral for the loaned securities. The collateral is restricted and not available for general use. Securities loaned were $2 million and $187 million as of December 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively.

DERIVATIVES AND HEDGING ACTIVITIES

The Company primarily utilizes derivative instruments to manage its exposure to interest rate risk, foreign currency risk, credit risk, and equity risk. Derivative instruments are also used to manage the duration mismatch of assets and liabilities. The Company utilizes a variety of derivative instruments including swaps, foreign exchange forward contracts, caps, floors, and options.

The Company applies hedge accounting by designating derivative instruments as either fair value or cash flow hedges on the date the Company enters into a derivative contract. The Company formally documents all relationships between hedging instruments and hedged items, as well as its risk management objectives and strategy for undertaking various hedge transactions. In this documentation, the Company specifically identifies the asset, liability, firm commitment, or forecasted transaction that has been designated as a hedged item and states how the hedging instrument is expected to hedge the risks related to the hedged item. The Company formally measures effectiveness of its hedging relationships both at the hedge inception and on an ongoing basis in accordance with its risk management policy.

Notional amount represents a standard of measurement of the volume of derivatives. Notional amount is not a quantification of market risk or credit risk and is not recorded on the consolidated statements of financial condition. Notional amounts generally represent those amounts used to calculate contractual cash flows to be exchanged and are not paid or received, except for certain contracts such as currency swaps.

PL-27

The following table summarizes the asset and liability values of the Company’s derivative instruments and are calculated based on the aggregate estimated fair value of all derivative instruments with each counterparty, net of collateral received or pledged, in accordance with legally enforceable counterparty master netting agreements. Net cash collateral received from counterparties was $270 million and $253 million as of December 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively. This unrestricted cash collateral is included in cash and cash equivalents and the obligation to return it is netted against the estimated fair value of derivatives in other investments or other assets. If the net estimated fair value exposure to the counterparty is positive, the amount is reflected in other investments or other assets, whereas, if the net estimated fair value exposure to the counterparty is negative, the estimated fair value is included in future policy benefits or other liabilities, depending on the nature of the derivative.

		As of December 31, 2007 and 2006, the Company had also accepted collateral consisting of various securities with an estimated fair value of $16 million and zero, respectively, which are held in separate custodial accounts. The Company is permitted by contract to sell or repledge this collateral, and as of December 31, 2007 and 2006, $16 million and none of the collateral had been repledged, respectively.

		As of December 31, 2007 and 2006, the Company had pledged cash collateral of zero and $19 million, respectively. This cash collateral is not included in cash and cash equivalents and the right to receive it is netted against the estimated fair value of derivatives recorded in other liabilities. As of December 31, 2007 and 2006, the Company provided collateral in the form of various securities of $14 million and zero, respectively, which are included in fixed maturity securities. The counterparties are permitted by contract to sell or repledge this collateral.

		CASH FLOW HEDGES

		The Company primarily uses foreign currency interest rate swaps, forward starting interest rate swaps and interest rate swaps to manage its exposure to variability in cash flows due to changes in foreign currencies and the benchmark interest rate. These cash flows include those associated with existing assets and liabilities, as well as the forecasted interest cash flows related to anticipated investment purchases and liability issuances. Such anticipated investment purchases and liability issuances are considered probable to occur and are generally completed within 22 years of the inception of the hedge.

		Foreign currency interest rate swap agreements are used to convert a fixed or floating rate, foreign-denominated asset or liability to a U.S. dollar fixed rate asset or liability. The foreign currency interest rate swaps involve the exchange of an initial principal amount in two currencies, and the agreement to re-exchange the currencies at a future date, at an agreed exchange rate. There is also periodic exchange of interest payments in the two currencies at specified intervals, calculated using agreed upon rates and the exchanged principal amounts. The main currencies that the Company hedges are the Euro, British Pound, and Canadian Dollar.

		Forward starting interest rate swaps are used to hedge the variability in the future interest receipts or payments stemming from the anticipated purchase of fixed rate securities or issuance of fixed rate liabilities due to changes in benchmark interest rates. These derivatives are predominantly used to lock in interest rate levels to match future cash flow characteristics of assets and liabilities. Forward starting interest rate swaps involve the exchange, at specified intervals, of interest payments resulting from the difference between fixed and floating rate interest amounts calculated by reference to an underlying notional amount to begin at a specified date in the future for a specified period of time. Generally, no cash is exchanged at the outset of the contract and no principal payments are made by either party. The

PL-28

notional amounts of the contracts do not represent future cash requirements, as the Company intends to close out open positions prior to expiration.

		Interest rate swap agreements are used to convert a floating rate asset or liability to a fixed rate to hedge the variability of cash flows of the hedged asset or liability due to changes in benchmark interest rates. These derivatives are predominantly used to better match the cash flow characteristics between assets and liabilities. These agreements involve the exchange, at specified intervals, of interest payments resulting from the difference between fixed rate and floating rate interest amounts calculated by reference to an underlying notional amount. Generally, no cash is exchanged at the outset of the contract and no principal payments are made by either party.

		When a derivative is designated as a cash flow hedge, the effective portion of changes in the estimated fair value of the derivative is recorded in OCI and recognized in earnings when the hedged item affects earnings, and the ineffective portion of changes in the estimated fair value of the derivative is recorded in net realized investment gain (loss). For the years ended December 31, 2007, 2006 and 2005, the gains and losses related to the ineffective portion of designated cash flow hedges were insignificant. No component of the hedging instrument’s estimated fair value is excluded from the determination of effectiveness. For the years ended December 31, 2007, 2006 and 2005, the Company had net losses of $21 million, $2 million and zero, respectively, reclassified from AOCI to earnings resulting from the discontinuance of cash flow hedges due to forecasted transactions that were no longer probable of occurring. Over the next twelve months, the Company anticipates that $15 million of deferred gains on derivative instruments in AOCI will be reclassified to earnings. For the years ended December 31, 2007, 2006 and 2005, all of the Company’s hedged forecasted transactions were determined to be probable of occurring.

		FAIR VALUE HEDGES

		The Company primarily uses interest rate swaps to manage its exposure to changes in the estimated fair values of its assets and liabilities due to fluctuations in the benchmark interest rate.

		Interest rate swap agreements are used to convert a fixed rate asset or liability to a floating rate to hedge the changes in estimated fair value of the hedged asset or liability due to changes in benchmark interest rates. These derivatives are used primarily to closely match the duration of the assets supporting specific liabilities.

		When a derivative is designated as a fair value hedge, the changes in the estimated fair value of the derivative and the hedged item are recognized in net realized investment gain (loss). The change in value of the hedged item associated with the risk being hedged is reflected as an adjustment to the carrying amount of the hedged item. For the years ended December 31, 2007, 2006 and 2005, hedge ineffectiveness related to designated fair value hedges reflected in net realized investment gain (loss) was insignificant. No component of the hedging instrument’s estimated fair value is excluded from the determination of effectiveness.

		DERIVATIVES NOT DESIGNATED AS HEDGING INSTRUMENTS

		The Company has certain insurance and reinsurance contracts that are considered to have embedded derivatives. When it is determined that the embedded derivative possesses economic and risk characteristics that are not clearly and closely related to those of the host contract and that a separate instrument with the same terms would qualify as a derivative instrument, it is separated from the host contract and accounted for as a stand-alone derivative.

		The Company offers a rider on certain variable annuity contracts that guarantees net principal over a ten-year holding period, as well as riders on certain variable annuity contracts that guarantee a minimum withdrawal benefit over specified periods, subject to certain restrictions. These variable annuity riders (VA Riders) are considered embedded derivatives and are recorded in future policy benefits.

		The Company employs hedging strategies designed to mitigate the equity risk associated with the portion of VA Riders not covered by reinsurance. Equity put swaps are utilized to economically hedge against movements in the equity markets. These equity put swaps involve the exchange of periodic fixed rate payments for the return, at the end of the swap agreement, of the equity index below a specified strike price. Generally, no cash is exchanged at the outset of the contract and no principal payments are made by either party. Additionally, the Company utilizes total return swaps based upon the S&P 500 Index (S&P 500) primarily to economically hedge the equity risk of the mortality and expense fees in its variable annuity products. These contracts provide periodic payments to the Company in exchange for the

PL-29

total return of the S&P 500 in the form of a payment or receipt, depending on whether the return relative to the index on trade date is positive or negative, respectively.

		VA Riders on new variable annuity contracts issued since January 1, 2007 are partially covered by reinsurance. These reinsurance arrangements are used to offset a portion of the Company’s exposure to the VA Riders for the lives of the host variable annuity contracts issued since January 1, 2007. The ceded portion of the VA Riders is considered an embedded derivative and is recorded in other assets or other liabilities as either a reinsurance recoverable or reinsurance payable.

		The decrease in the estimated fair value of the embedded derivatives, net of reinsurance, and net of the results of the variable annuity hedging strategies, which includes periodic derivative settlements, resulted in before DAC and pre-tax unrealized gains (losses) of ($178) million, ($30) million and $11 million for the years ended December 31, 2007, 2006 and 2005, respectively, which were recorded as a component of net realized investment gain (loss).

		Additionally, certain policy fee revenue related to the VA Riders of $78 million, $64 million and $29 million is included in net realized investment gain (loss) for the years ended December 31, 2007, 2006 and 2005, respectively.

		The Company issues synthetic GICs to Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (ERISA) qualified defined contribution employee benefit plans (ERISA Plan). The ERISA Plan uses the contracts in its stable value or guaranteed fixed income option. The Company does not manage the assets underlying synthetic GICs; however, the Company pre-approves all investment guidelines to mitigate any investment risk. The Company receives a fee for providing liquidity to the benefit plan sponsor in the event that qualified plan benefit requests exceed plan cash flows. In the event that plan participant elections exceed the fair value of the assets or if the contract is terminated and at the end of the termination period the book value under the contract exceeds the fair value of the assets, then the Company is required to pay the ERISA Plan the difference. The estimated fair value of the assets was greater than the book value under the contracts by $34 million as of December 31, 2007. As of December 31, 2006, the estimated fair value of the assets was below the book value under the contracts by $64 million. As of December 31, 2006, the Company did not record a contingent liability as the probability of making a payment under these provisions was considered remote.

		CREDIT EXPOSURE

		Credit exposure is measured on a counterparty basis as the net positive aggregate estimated fair value, net of collateral received, if any. The credit exposure for over the counter derivatives as of December 31, 2007 was $196 million.

		For all derivative contracts other than VA Riders and synthetic GICs, the Company enters into master agreements that may include a termination event clause associated with the Company’s insurer financial strength rating. If the Company’s insurer financial strength rating falls below a specified level assigned by certain rating agencies or, in most cases, if one of the rating agencies ceases to provide an insurer financial strength rating, the counterparty can terminate the master agreement with payment due based on the estimated fair value of the underlying derivatives. As of December 31, 2007, the Company’s insurer financial strength rating was above the specified level.

		The Company attempts to limit its credit exposure by dealing with creditworthy counterparties, establishing risk control limits, executing legally enforceable master netting agreements, and obtaining collateral where appropriate. In addition, each counterparty is reviewed to evaluate its financial stability before entering into each agreement and throughout the period that the financial instrument is owned. All of the Company’s credit exposure from derivative contracts is with investment grade counterparties. The Company has not incurred any losses on derivative financial instruments due to counterparty nonperformance.

PL-30

		SHORT-TERM DEBT

		Pacific Life maintains a $700 million commercial paper program. The amount outstanding as of December 31, 2007 was $100 million, bearing an average interest rate of 4.4%. There was no commercial paper debt outstanding as of December 31, 2006. In addition, Pacific Life has a bank revolving credit facility of $400 million maturing in 2012 that serves as a back-up line of credit for the commercial paper program. This facility had no debt outstanding as of December 31, 2007 and 2006. As of and during the year ended December 31, 2007, Pacific Life was in compliance with the debt covenants related to this facility.

		During a majority of the first nine months of 2006, Pacific Life was a member of the FHLB of San Francisco, which enabled Pacific Life to borrow from the FHLB of San Francisco amounts that were based on a percentage of statutory capital and surplus. During the third quarter of 2006, Pacific Life moved its membership in the FHLB from San Francisco to Topeka. Pacific Life has approval from the FHLB of Topeka to advance amounts up to 40% of Pacific Life’s statutory general account assets provided it has available collateral and is in compliance with debt covenant restrictions and insurance laws and regulations. There was no debt outstanding with the FHLB of Topeka as of December 31, 2007 and 2006.

		In December 2006, PL&A became eligible to borrow from the FHLB of San Francisco amounts based on a percentage of statutory capital and surplus and could borrow up to amounts of $102 million. Of this amount, half, or $51 million, can be borrowed for terms other than overnight, out to a maximum term of nine months. These borrowings are at variable rates of interest, collateralized by certain mortgage loan and government securities. As of December 31, 2007 and 2006, PL&A had no debt outstanding with the FHLB of San Francisco.

		LONG-TERM DEBT

		Pacific Life has $150 million of surplus notes outstanding at an interest rate of 7.9%, maturing on December 30, 2023. Interest is payable semiannually on June 30 and December 30. The surplus notes may not be redeemed at the option of Pacific Life or any holder of the surplus notes. The surplus notes are unsecured and subordinated to all present and future senior indebtedness and policy claims of Pacific Life. All future payments of interest and principal on the surplus notes can be made only with the prior approval of the Director of Insurance of the State of Nebraska.

		Pacific Life entered into interest rate swaps converting the fixed interest rate surplus notes to variable rate notes based upon the London Interbank Offered Rate. In accordance with SFAS No. 133, the interest rate swaps were designated as fair value hedges of the surplus notes. The SFAS No. 133 fair value adjustment, which increased long-term debt by $13 million and $6 million as of December 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively, represents the cumulative change in the estimated fair value of the interest rate swaps. An offsetting fair value adjustment has also been recorded for the interest rate swap derivative instruments.

		Certain subsidiaries of Pacific Asset Holding LLC (PAH), a wholly owned subsidiary of Pacific Life and formerly known as Pacific Asset Management LLC, entered into various term loans with third parties. Interest on these loans accrues at fixed rates, is payable monthly and range from 5.8% to 6.2% as of December 31, 2007. As of December 31, 2007, there was $87 million outstanding on these loans with maturities ranging from 2010 to 2012. None of these loans were in place at December 31, 2006. All of these loans are secured by real estate properties and are non-recourse to the Company.

		Certain subsidiaries of PAH also entered into various property improvement loans with third parties for a maximum loan balance of $43 million. Interest on these loans accrues at variable rates, is payable monthly and range from 6.4% to 7.0% as of December 31, 2007. As of December 31, 2007, there was $32 million outstanding on these loans with maturities ranging from 2009 to 2011. As of December 31, 2006, only one of these loans was in place with a maximum loan balance of $12 million, interest rate of 7.8%, maturity in 2009 and an outstanding loan balance of $9 million. All of these loans are secured by real estate properties and are non-recourse to the Company.

Collateral pledged								(19	)		(19	)

		The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair value of these financial instruments as of December 31, 2007 and 2006:

		MORTGAGE LOANS

		The estimated fair value of the mortgage loan portfolio is determined by discounting the estimated future cash flows, using a market rate that is applicable to the yield, credit quality and average maturity of the composite portfolio.

		POLICY LOANS

		The carrying amounts of policy loans are a reasonable estimate of their fair values because interest rates are generally variable and based on current market rates.

		OTHER INVESTED ASSETS

		The estimated fair value of private equity investments is based on the ownership percentage of the underlying equity of the investments. The estimated fair value of trading securities is based on quoted market prices, and non marketable equity securities is based on management’s estimate of fair value.

		COLLATERAL RECEIVED AND PLEDGED

		The carrying values of cash collateral received and pledged approximate fair value due to the short-term maturities of these instruments.

		CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS

		The carrying values approximate fair values due to the short-term maturities of these instruments.

14.		REINSURANCE

		The Company has reinsurance agreements with other insurance companies to limit potential losses, reduce exposure arising from larger risks, and provide additional capacity for future growth.

		As part of a strategic alliance, the Company also reinsures risks associated with policies written by an independent producer group through modified coinsurance arrangements with this producer group’s reinsurance company.

		All assets associated with business reinsured on a modified coinsurance basis remain with, and under the control of, the Company. As part of its risk management process, the Company routinely evaluates its reinsurance programs and may change retention limits, reinsurers or other features at any time.

		Certain no lapse guarantee rider (NLGR) benefits of Pacific Life’s UL insurance products are subject to Actuarial Guideline 38 (AG 38) statutory reserving requirements. U.S. GAAP benefit reserves for such riders are based on SOP 03-1. AG 38, as revised in October 2005 and in September 2006, results in additional statutory reserves on UL

PL-35

products with NLGRs issued after June 30, 2005. The U.S. GAAP benefit reserves relating to NLGRs issued after June 30, 2005 are ceded from Pacific Life to Pacific Alliance Reinsurance Ltd. (PAR Bermuda), a Bermuda-based life reinsurance company wholly owned by Pacific LifeCorp and PAR Vermont under reinsurance agreements. Funded reserves in a trust account with Pacific Life as beneficiary and irrevocable letters of credit, in which Pacific LifeCorp is the co-applicant with PAR Bermuda and PAR Vermont, provide security for statutory reserve credits taken by Pacific Life.

		During 2006, the Company entered into treaties to reinsure a portion of new variable annuity business sold under modified coinsurance arrangements. In 2007, the Company increased the quota-share reinsured on new variable annuity business as well as extended reinsurance coverage under coinsurance agreements to cover portions of variable annuity living and death benefit riders.

		Reinsurance receivables and payables generally include amounts related to claims, reserves and reserve related items. Reinsurance receivables were $349 million and $161 million as of December 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively. Reinsurance payables were $54 million and $8 million as of December 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively.

		The ceding of risk does not discharge the Company from its primary obligations to contract owners. To the extent that the assuming companies become unable to meet their obligations under reinsurance contracts, the Company remains contingently liable. Each reinsurer is reviewed to evaluate its financial stability before entering into each reinsurance contract and throughout the period that the reinsurance contract is in place.

		The components of insurance premiums presented in the consolidated statements of operations are as follows:

15.		EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLANS

		PENSION PLANS

		Pacific Life provides a defined benefit pension plan covering all eligible employees of the Company. Certain subsidiaries do not participate in this plan. The full-benefit vesting period for all participants is five years. Pacific Life’s funding policy is to contribute amounts to the plan sufficient to meet the minimum funding requirements set forth in ERISA, plus such additional amounts as may be determined appropriate. All such contributions are made to a tax-exempt trust.

		During 2007, the Company amended the defined benefit pension plan to terminate effective December 31, 2007. The net assets of the defined benefit pension plan will be allocated for payment of plan benefits to the participants in an order of priority determined in accordance with ERISA, applicable regulations thereunder and the defined benefit pension plan document. The final termination of the plan and payment of plan benefits to the participants is subject to regulatory approval.

		In 2007, the defined benefit pension plan’s investment strategy was revised and the mutual fund investments were sold, transferred to a separate account of the Company and invested primarily in fixed income investments.

		Effective January 1, 2005, the contribution credits for employees with less than 10 years of service were suspended and replaced by contribution credits into the Retirement Incentive Savings Plan (RISP) provided by Pacific Life pursuant to section 401(k) of the Internal Revenue Code. Effective January 1, 2007, the contribution credits for all other employees were suspended and also replaced by contribution credits into the RISP.

		In addition, Pacific Life maintains supplemental employee retirement plans (SERPs) for certain eligible employees. As of December 31, 2007 and 2006, the projected benefit obligation was $34 million. The fair value of plan assets as of December 31, 2007 and 2006 was zero. The net periodic benefit cost of the SERPs was $6 million, $6 million and $26 million for the years ended December 31, 2007, 2006 and 2005, respectively. New provisions of the Internal Revenue Code allowed vested participants of certain non-qualified plans to receive distributions in 2005. Accordingly, $77 million was distributed to participants electing to receive distributions from the SERPs, which resulted in a settlement expense of $16 million for the year ended December 31, 2005.

		In connection with the sale of the group insurance business (Note 6), and the resulting termination of a large group of the Company’s employees, the Company incurred $8 million in curtailment, settlement and special termination costs for the year ended December 31, 2005, which are included in discontinued operations.

		Components of the net periodic pension expense are as follows:

Weighted-average assumptions used to determine benefit obligations:
Discount rate		6.25	%		5.75	%
Rate of compensation increase		N/A			N/A

Effective January 1, 2007, contribution credits to the defined benefit pension plan were suspended, thus, the rate of compensation increase assumption is no longer applicable.


	Years Ended December 31,
	2007			2006			2005

Weighted-average assumptions used to determine net periodic benefit costs:
Discount rate		5.75	%		5.50	%		5.75	%
Expected long-term return on plan assets		6.13	%		8.00	%		8.00	%
Rate of compensation increase		N/A			4.50	%		4.00	%

		In developing the expected long-term rate of return on plan assets, the Company considers many factors. These factors consist of a review of historical returns and the future expectations for returns for each asset class, as well as the target asset allocation of the plan’s portfolio. This resulted in the selection of the 8.00% long-term rate of return on asset assumption for the first three months of 2007. In April 2007, the Company changed the asset allocation to fixed income assets in order to better match the expected duration of liabilities. The expected return on asset assumption was then lowered to 5.50% resulting in a weighted-average expected return on asset assumption of 6.13% for 2007.

		Benefit payments for the year ended December 31, 2007 amounted to $45 million. Pacific Life expects to contribute $4 million to these plans in 2008. The expected benefit payments are as follows for the years ending December 31 (In Millions):


2008	2009	2010	2011	2012	2013-2017
$19	$21	$18	$19	$17	$81

The Company’s pension plan’s weighted-average asset allocations by asset category are as follows:


	December 31,
	2007			2006

Asset category:
Equity-type investments					69	%
Fixed income investments		99	%		30	%
Other		1	%		1	%

Total		100	%		100	%

Prior to 2007, it was intended that the defined benefit pension plan assets be invested in equity-type and fixed income investments, as long as the investments were consistent with the assumption that more than average risk and appropriate overall diversification was maintained and liquidity was sufficient to meet cash flow requirements. The defined benefit pension plan established and maintained a fundamental and long-term orientation in the determination of asset mix and selection of investment funds. This tolerance for more than average risk and long-term orientation provided the basis for a larger allocation to equities with some additional bias to higher risk investments for higher return. In anticipation of the final settlement of the plan, the asset allocation was changed to fixed income assets in order to better match the expected duration of liabilities.

PL-40

		RETIREMENT INCENTIVE SAVINGS PLAN

		Pacific Life provides a RISP covering all eligible employees of Pacific LifeCorp and certain of its subsidiaries. The RISP matches 75% of each employee’s contributions, up to a maximum of 6% of eligible employee compensation in cash. Since 1997, the RISP provided the Company match in the form of Pacific LifeCorp common stock. In October 2006, Pacific LifeCorp’s Board of Directors authorized a plan to terminate the Employee Stock Ownership Plan (ESOP) feature of the RISP, replace it with a cash match benefit and repurchase the outstanding allocated and unallocated shares of the ESOP. On October 25, 2006, the outstanding allocated and unallocated shares were repurchased by Pacific LifeCorp in cash for $112 million and an ESOP loan, with an outstanding balance of $2 million, was also repaid to Pacific Life. Contributions made by the Company to the RISP amounted to $24 million, $20 million and $20 million for the years ended December 31, 2007, 2006 and 2005, respectively, and are included in operating expenses.

		Amounts loaned to the ESOP by Pacific Life were included in unearned ESOP shares. The unearned ESOP shares account was reduced as ESOP shares were released for allocation to participants through ESOP contributions by Pacific Life. In addition, when the fair value of ESOP shares being released for allocation to participants was different from the original issue price of those shares, the difference was recorded in paid-in capital.

		POSTRETIREMENT BENEFITS

		Pacific Life provides a defined benefit health care plan and a defined benefit life insurance plan (the Plans) that provide postretirement benefits for all eligible retirees and their dependents. Generally, qualified employees may become eligible for these benefits if they have reached normal retirement age, have been covered under Pacific Life’s policy as an active employee for a minimum continuous period prior to the date retired, and have an employment date before January 1, 1990. The Plans contain cost-sharing features such as deductibles and coinsurance, and require retirees to make contributions, which can be adjusted annually. Pacific Life’s commitment to qualified employees who retire after April 1, 1994 is limited to specific dollar amounts. Pacific Life reserves the right to modify or terminate the Plans at any time. As in the past, the general policy is to fund these benefits on a pay-as-you-go basis.

		The net periodic postretirement benefit cost for each of the years ended December 31, 2007, 2006 and 2005 was $1 million. As of December 31, 2007 and 2006, the accumulated benefit obligation was $18 million. The actuarial gain due to the Medicare subsidy was $2 million as of December 31, 2005. The fair value of the plan assets as of December 31, 2007 and 2006 was zero. The amount of accrued benefit cost included in other liabilities prior to the adoption of the funded status provisions of SFAS No. 158 was $20 million as of December 31, 2006. The liabilities recognized after the adoption of the funded status provisions of SFAS No. 158 were $18 million as of December 31, 2007.

		The adjustment related to postretirement benefits to reflect the adoption of SFAS No. 158 resulted in an increase in AOCI of $2 million, pre-tax, as of December 31, 2007.

		The discount rate used in determining the accumulated postretirement benefit obligation was 6.25% and 5.75% for 2007 and 2006, respectively.

		Benefit payments for the year ended December 31, 2007 amounted to $3 million. The expected benefit payments are as follows for the years ending December 31 (In Millions):


2008	2009	2010	2011	2012	2013-2017
$3	$3	$4	$4	$4	$20

PL-41

		OTHER PLANS

		The Company has deferred compensation plans that permit eligible employees to defer portions of their compensation and earn interest on the deferred amounts. The interest rate is determined annually. The compensation that has been deferred has been accrued and the primary expense related to this plan, other than compensation, is interest on the deferred amounts. The Company also has performance-based incentive compensation plans for its employees.

16.		INCOME TAXES

		The provision for income taxes (benefit) is as follows:

Provision for income taxes from continuing operations	$	98		$	198		$	100

Upon adoption of FIN 48 on January 1, 2007 (Note 1), the Company had unrecognized tax benefits of $32 million, which relate entirely to an uncertain tax position regarding refund claims for the impact of short-term capital gains on computing dividends received deductions relating to the Company’s separate accounts (DRD). A reconciliation of the changes in the unrecognized tax benefits from January 1, 2007 to December 31, 2007 is as follows (In Millions):


Balance at January 1, 2007	$	32
Additions and deletions		—

Balance at December 31, 2007	$	32

		Depending on the outcome of Internal Revenue Service (IRS) appeals proceedings, approximately $7 million of the unrecognized DRD tax benefits may be realized during the next twelve months. All realized tax benefits and related interest will be recorded as a discrete item that will impact the effective tax rate in the accounting period in which the uncertain DRD tax position is ultimately settled.

		During the year ended December 31, 2007, the Company paid an immaterial amount of interest and penalties to state tax authorities.

		SFAS No. 109, Accounting for Income Taxes requires the reduction of deferred tax assets by a valuation allowance if, based on the weight of available evidence, it is more likely than not that a portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. Based on management’s assessment, it is more likely than not that deferred tax assets will be realized through future taxable earnings.

		The Company files income tax returns in U.S. Federal and various state jurisdictions and have tax years open by statute, or valid extension thereof, for tax years after 1997. The Company is under continuous audit by the IRS and is audited periodically by some state taxing authorities. The IRS and state taxing authorities have completed audits of the Company’s tax returns through the tax years ended December 31, 2003 and are currently auditing the tax years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004. The Company does not expect the Federal and state audits to result in any material assessments.

17.		SEGMENT INFORMATION

		The Company has three operating segments: Life Insurance, Investment Management, and Annuities & Mutual Funds. These segments are managed separately and have been identified based on differences in products and services offered. All other activity is included in Corporate and Other segment.

		The Life Insurance segment offers UL, VUL and other life insurance products to individuals, small businesses and corporations through a network of distribution channels that include regional life offices, sales centers, marketing organizations, wirehouse broker-dealer firms and a national producer group that has produced over 10% of the segment’s in force business.

		The Investment Management segment offers investment and annuity products to pension fund sponsors and other institutional investors primarily through its home office marketing team and other intermediaries.

		The Annuities & Mutual Funds segment offers variable annuities, fixed annuities and mutual funds to individuals and small businesses through Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA) firms, regional and national wirehouses, and financial institutions. FINRA was created in July 2007 through the consolidation of the National Association of Securities Dealers and the member regulation, enforcement and arbitration functions of the New York Stock Exchange.

		The Corporate and Other segment primarily includes investment income, expenses and assets not attributable to the operating segments, and the operations of certain subsidiaries that do not qualify as operating segments. The Corporate and Other segment also includes the interest in PIMCO and the elimination of intersegment transactions. Discontinued operations (Note 6) are also included in Corporate and Other segment.

		The Company uses the same accounting policies and procedures to measure segment net income and assets as it uses to measure its consolidated net income and assets. Net investment income and net realized investment gain (loss) are allocated based on invested assets purchased and held as is required for transacting the business of that segment. Overhead expenses are allocated based on services provided. Interest expense is allocated based on the short-term borrowing needs of the segment and is included in net investment income. The provision for income taxes is allocated based on each segment’s actual tax provision.

		The operating segments are allocated equity based on formulas determined by management and receive a fixed interest rate of return on interdivision debentures supporting the allocated equity. The debenture amount is reflected as investment expense in net investment income in the Corporate and Other segment and as investment income in the operating segments.

		The Company generates substantially all of its revenues and net income from customers located in the U.S. As of December 31, 2007 and 2006, the Company had foreign investments with an estimated fair value of $6.8 billion and $6.4 billion, respectively.

18.		TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES

		Pacific Life Fund Advisors LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of Pacific Life formed in 2007, serves as the investment adviser for the Pacific Select Fund, an investment vehicle provided to the Company’s variable life insurance policyholders and variable annuity contract owners, and the Pacific Life Funds, the investment vehicle for the Company’s mutual fund products. Prior to May 1, 2007, Pacific Life served in this capacity. Investment advisory and other fees are based primarily upon the net asset value of the underlying portfolios. These fees amounted to $326 million, $316 million and $246 million for the years ended December 31, 2007, 2006 and 2005, respectively. In addition, Pacific Life provides certain support services to the Pacific Select Fund, the Pacific Life Funds and other affiliates based on an allocation of actual costs. These fees amounted to $8 million, $7 million and $5 million for the years ended December 31, 2007, 2006 and 2005, respectively.

		In addition, effective May 1, 2007, a service plan adopted by the Pacific Select Fund went into effect whereby the fund pays PSD, as distributor of the fund, a service fee in connection with services rendered or procured to or for shareholders of the fund or their variable contract owners. These services may include, but are not limited to, payment of compensation to broker-dealers, including PSD itself, and other financial institutions and organizations which assist in providing any of the services. For the period May 1, 2007 through December 31, 2007, PSD received $74 million in

PL-47

service fees from the Pacific Select Fund, which is recorded in other income. The service fees were allocated to the operating segments, primarily the Annuities & Mutual Funds segment (Note 17).

		In April 2006, Pacific Life made a $16 million non-cash dividend to Pacific LifeCorp, consisting of a real estate investment, which resulted in a gain of $9 million for Pacific Life.

		As discussed in Note 14, no lapse guarantee benefit riders are coinsured with PAR Bermuda.

19.		COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

		COMMITMENTS

		The Company has outstanding commitments to make investments primarily in fixed maturity securities, mortgage loans, limited partnerships and other investments, as follows (In Millions):


Years Ending December 31:
2008	$	1,144
2009 through 2012		929
2013 and thereafter		73

Total	$	2,146

The Company leases office facilities under various noncancelable operating leases. Rent expense, which is included in operating expenses, in connection with these leases was $12 million, $11 million and $10 million for the years ended December 31, 2007, 2006 and 2005, respectively. In connection with the group insurance transaction (Note 6), PL&A is contingently liable for certain future rent and expense obligations, not to exceed $16 million, related to an office lease that was assigned to the buyer. Aggregate minimum future commitments are as follows (In Millions):


Years Ending December 31:
2008	$	5
2009 through 2012		8
2013 and thereafter		1

Total	$	14

		In March 2007, the Company began construction of a new office building in Aliso Viejo, California that was completed in February 2008. The Company will retain its corporate headquarters in Newport Beach, California.

		CONTINGENCIES — LITIGATION

		During the year ended December 31, 2007, Pacific Life settled a national class action lawsuit, Cooper v. Pacific Life, for a combination of cash distributions and contract credits to owners of qualified annuity contracts who purchased their contracts between August 19, 1998, and April 30, 2002, or paid premium payments during that time period. Pacific Life strongly disagreed with the claims in the lawsuit. The settlement is not considered an admission or concession with respect to any claims made in the lawsuit and did not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s consolidated financial position. Distributions will be made to eligible class members beginning in the first quarter of 2008 and in accordance with the terms of the settlement agreement.

		The Company is a respondent in a number of other legal proceedings, some of which involve allegations for extra-contractual damages. Although the Company is confident of its position in these matters, success is not a certainty and it is possible that in any case a judge or jury could rule against the Company. In the opinion of management, the outcome of such proceedings is not likely to have a material adverse effect on the Company’s consolidated financial position. The Company believes adequate provision has been made in its consolidated financial statements for all probable and estimable losses for litigation claims against the Company.

PL-48

		CONTINGENCIES — IRS REVENUE RULING

		On August 16, 2007, the IRS issued Revenue Ruling 2007-54, which provided the IRS’ interpretation of tax law regarding the computation of the Company’s DRD. On September 25, 2007, the IRS issued Revenue Ruling 2007-61, which suspended Revenue Ruling 2007-54 and indicated the IRS would address the proper interpretation of tax law in a regulation project that has been added to the IRS’ 2007/2008 priority guidance plan. If, after public notice and comment, the IRS regulation project ultimately adopts the IRS’ interpretation contained in Revenue Ruling 2007-54, the Company could lose a substantial amount of DRD tax benefits, which could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

		CONTINGENCIES — OTHER

		In connection with the sale of certain broker-dealer subsidiaries (Note 6), certain indemnifications triggered by breaches of representations, warranties or covenants were provided by the Company. Also, included in the indemnifications is indemnification for certain third-party claims arising from the normal operation of these broker-dealers prior to the closing and within the nine month period following the sale. Management believes that its exposure to loss, if any, is not likely to have a material adverse effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

		In the course of its business, the Company provides certain indemnifications related to other dispositions, acquisitions, investments, lease agreements or other transactions that are triggered by, among other things, breaches of representations, warranties or covenants provided by the Company. These obligations are typically subject to time limitations that vary in duration, including contractual limitations and those that arise by operation of law, such as applicable statutes of limitation. Because the amounts of these types of indemnifications often are not explicitly stated, the overall maximum amount of the obligation under such indemnifications cannot be reasonably estimated. The Company has not historically made material payments for these types of indemnifications. The estimated maximum potential amount of future payments under these obligations is not determinable due to the lack of a stated maximum liability for certain matters, and therefore, no related liability has been recorded. Management believes that judgments, if any, against the Company related to such matters are not likely to have a material adverse effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

		Most of the jurisdictions in which the Company is admitted to transact business require life insurance companies to participate in guaranty associations, which are organized to pay contractual benefits owed pursuant to insurance policies issued by insolvent life insurance companies. These associations levy assessments, up to prescribed limits, on all member companies in a particular state based on the proportionate share of premiums written by member companies in the lines of business in which the insolvent insurer operated. The Company has not received notification of any insolvency that is expected to result in a material guaranty fund assessment.

		In relation to an asset securitization sponsored by Aviation Capital Group Corp., a wholly owned subsidiary of Pacific LifeCorp, Pacific Life is contingently obligated to purchase certain notes from the asset securitization trust to cover shortfalls in amounts due to the holders of the notes, up to certain levels as specified under the related agreements. As of December 31, 2007, the maximum potential amount of this future investment commitment was $50 million.

		In connection with the operations of PSD, Pacific Life has made commitments to provide for additional capital funding as may be required.

		See Note 9 for discussion of contingencies related to derivative instruments.

	Loan Expenses (interest on Contract Debt)(Loans are only available with certain Qualified Contracts. See FEDERAL TAX ISSUES—Qualified Contracts—General Rules on page 43):



¹		The withdrawal charge may or may not apply or may be reduced under certain circumstances. The age is measured from the date of each Purchase Payment. See CHARGES, FEES AND DEDUCTIONS and WITHDRAWALS.


²		The loan administrative fee is currently waived. In the future, we may charge an administrative fee up to $500. See LOANS.

³		We deduct an Annual Fee on each Contract Anniversary up to your Annuity Date and when you make a full withdrawal if the Contract Value on these days is less than $50,000 after deducting any outstanding loan and interest (your Net Contract Value). See CHARGES, FEES AND DEDUCTIONS.

⁴		The Account Value represents the value of your Variable Investment Options and any fixed Investment Options on any Business Day. The Contract Value represents the value of your Variable Investment Options, any fixed Investment Options plus any Loan Account Value on any Business Day.


⁵		This is an annual rate and is assessed on a daily basis. The daily rate is calculated by dividing the annual rate by 365.



⁶		If we process a loan on your Contract, we will charge you a gross interest rate of 5.00% on your outstanding principal amount. We will credit you the amount of 3.00% on any Contract Value attributed to your Loan Account. The net amount of interest you pay on your loan will be 2.00% annually. See FEDERAL TAX ISSUES—Qualified Contracts—General Rules—Loans.

See the Fees and Expenses section of the Pacific Select Fund prospectus for complete information regarding annual fund operating expenses.



*		In calculating the examples above, we used the maximum and minimum total operating expenses of all the Portfolios as shown in the Fees And Expenses section of each Fund Prospectus.
