NOTICE OF FUND SUBSTITUTIONS

ING Life Insurance and Annuity Company (the “Company”) and its Variable Annuity Account B and Variable Annuity Account I (the “Separate Accounts”) have filed an application with the Securities and Exchange Commission to permit certain funds in which the subaccounts of the Separate Accounts invest (the “Replaced Funds”) to be replaced with certain other funds (the “Substitute Funds”).

Reasons for the Substitution. The principal purposes of the substitutions are as follows:

• Implement Business Plan. The substitutions are part of an overall business plan to provide a more streamlined, standardized, simplified and consolidated current array of funds available through the Company’s products.

• Reduced Costs and Greater Influence. Including too many different funds with different investment advisers within the Company’s products makes those products more costly to administer. The Company believes that making available affiliated funds managed by expert third party asset managers will lead to increased efficiencies, greater influence over the administrative aspects of the funds and reduced costs.

• Due Diligence. The substitutions will allow the Company to respond to concerns that it has identified in its due diligence review of the funds available through the products, including concerns related to changes in fund managers, performance and well-publicized investigations, claims and regulatory actions and the corresponding negative publicity.

The following fund is involved in the substitution:

Replaced Funds	Substitute Funds
Fidelity® VIP Equity-Income Portfolio (Initial Class)	ING FMRSM Equity Income Portfolio (Class I)

• Prior to the effective date of the substitutions and for thirty days thereafter you may transfer amounts allocated to a subaccount which invests in a Replaced Fund to any other subaccount or any available fixed account free of charge and any such transfer will not count as a transfer when imposing any applicable restriction or limit on transfers.

• On the effective date of the substitutions, all amounts you have allocated to a subaccount which invests in a Replaced Fund will automatically be reallocated to the corresponding Substitute Fund. Thereafter, all future allocations directed to a subaccount which invested in a Replaced Fund will be automatically allocated to the corresponding Substitute Fund.

• You will not incur any fees or charges or any tax liability because of the substitutions, and your account value immediately before the substitutions will equal your account value immediately after the substitutions.
