Commissioners:

On behalf of Farmers New World Life Insurance Company (the Company ) and Farmers
Annuity Separate Account A (the Separate Account ), we are transmitting a certification pursuant to

Amendment was filed electronically with the Commission on April 29, 2009.

If you have any questions or comments regarding this filing, please call the undersigned at

Sincerely,
