Portfolio Optimization Service Discontinuation
 
On June 24, 2011 (the scheduled “Transfer Date”), your Variable Account Value allocated using one of the existing Portfolio Optimization Models will be transferred to a corresponding Portfolio Optimization Investment Option (the “Transfer”) and upon Transfer completion, the Portfolio Optimization Service will be discontinued. In anticipation of the

 

Transfer, Pacific Life Fund Advisors LLC (“PLFA”) will not conduct its customary annual update of the Model’s asset allocations. You do not need to take any action, the Transfer will occur automatically and is summarized as follows:
 
     
Existing Portfolio Optimization Model
 
Corresponding Portfolio Optimization Investment Option
 
Model A
  Portfolio Optimization Conservative
Model B
  Portfolio Optimization Moderate-Conservative
Model C
  Portfolio Optimization Moderate
Model D
  Portfolio Optimization Growth
Model E
  Portfolio Optimization Aggressive-Growth
 
Upon Transfer completion, unless you instruct us otherwise, any outstanding instruction you have on file with us that designates one of the Portfolio Optimization Models (A through E) will be deemed an instruction for the corresponding Portfolio Optimization Investment Option as outlined above. This includes, but is not limited to, instructions for Purchase Payment allocations, partial withdrawals and transfer instructions (including instructions under any systematic transfer option). Work with your financial advisor to determine if your existing allocation instructions should be changed before or after the Transfer Date.
 
On the Transfer Date, the Transfer will not count towards the transfer limitations described in your Prospectus. After the Transfer, the Portfolio Optimization Service will cease to exist along with any periodic rebalancing instructions under the Portfolio Optimization Service and PLFA’s investment advisory role to you as an individual will end.
 
If you do not want your Variable Account Value to be transferred to the corresponding Portfolio Optimization Investment Option on the Transfer Date, you must notify us before 1:00 p.m. Pacific Time on June 23, 2011. If you opt out, any Investment Option into which you make your transfer will be subject to the transfer limitations described in your Prospectus. In addition, if you have a living benefit rider you must continue to comply with the Investment Allocation Requirements outlined in your Prospectus, see OTHER OPTIONAL RIDERS—General Information—Investment Allocation Requirements.

At the same time that the reorganization occurs, Subaccount Units of the Invesco V.I. Global Multi-Asset and Invesco Van Kampen V.I. Global Tactical Asset Allocation variable accounts will automatically be transferred as outlined above. After the reorganization, the Invesco V.I. Global Multi-Asset and Invesco Van Kampen V.I. Global Tactical Asset Allocation variable accounts will cease to exist.
 
On the reorganization date, unless you instruct us otherwise, any outstanding instruction you have on file with us that designates the Invesco V.I. Global Multi-Asset or Invesco Van Kampen V.I. Global Tactical Asset Allcation Investment Options will be deemed an instruction for the Invesco V.I. Balanced-Risk Allocation Investment Option. This includes, but is not limited to, instructions for Purchase Payment allocations, partial withdrawals and transfer instructions (including instructions under any systematic transfer option). Work with your financial advisor to determine if your existing instructions regarding the affected Investment Options should be changed before or after the reorganization date.
