WHEREAS, effective January 1, 2004, the Account is a separate account established and maintained by ING USA pursuant to the laws of the State of Iowa for variable annuity contracts issued by ING USA under which income, gains, and losses, whether or not realized, from assets allocated to such Account, are credited to or charged against such Account without regard to other income, gains or losses of ING USA; and

WHEREAS, ING USA and DSI desire to continue the agreement pursuant to which DSI will act as a principal underwriter for the sale of the Annuity Contracts and may distribute the Annuity Contracts through one or more organizations as set forth in Section 2. below.

NOW, THEREFORE, ING USA and DSI hereby agree as follows:

1.     Term

This Agreement shall remain in force until it is terminated in accordance with the provisions of paragraph 13.

Annuity Contracts may be sold only by persons who are duly licensed annuity agents appointed by ING USA and NASD registered representatives as set forth in Section 3 below.

3.     Sales Agreements.

DSI is hereby authorized to enter into separate written agreements, ("Sales Agreements"), on

1

such terms and conditions as DSI may determine not to be inconsistent with this Agreement, with broker/dealers which agree to participate in the distribution of and to use their best efforts to solicit applications for Annuity Contracts. Such broker/dealers and their agents or representatives soliciting applications for Annuity Contracts shall be duly and appropriately licensed, registered or otherwise qualified for the sale of Annuity Contracts under the insurance laws and any applicable securities laws of each state or other jurisdiction in which the Annuity Contracts may be lawfully sold and in which ING USA is licensed to sell Annuity Contracts. Each such broker/dealer shall be both registered as a broker-dealer under the 1934 Act and a member of the NASD, or if not so registered or not such a member, then the agents and representatives of such organization soliciting applications for Annuity Contracts shall be agents and registered representatives of a registered broker/dealer and NASD member which is the parent or other affiliate of such organization and which maintains full responsibility for the training, supervision, and control of the agents and representatives selling Annuity Contracts.

DSI shall have the responsibility for the supervision of all such broker/dealers to the extent required by law and shall assume any legal responsibilities of ING USA for the acts, commissions or defalcations of any such broker/dealers. Applications materials for Annuity Contracts solicited by such broker/dealers through their agents or representatives shall be forwarded to DSI. All payments for Annuity Contracts shall be remitted promptly by such broker/dealers directly to ING USA.

If held at any time by DSI or a broker-dealer, such payments shall be held in a fiduciary capacity as agent for ING USA and shall be remitted promptly to ING USA. All such payments, whether by check, money order, or wire order, shall be the property of ING USA. Anything in this Distribution Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, ING USA shall retain the rights to control the sale of Annuity Contracts and to appoint and discharge annuity agents for the sale of Annuity Contracts. DSI shall be held to the exercise of reasonable care in carrying out the provisions of this Distribution Agreement

4.     Annuity Agents.

ING USA will undertake to appoint such as agents authorized to represent ING USA in the appropriate states or jurisdictions; provided that ING USA reserves the right to refuse to appoint any proposed agent, or once appointed to terminate the same without notice.

5.     Suitability.

ING USA wishes to ensure that the Annuity Contracts distributed by DSI will be issued to purchasers for whom the Annuity Contracts shall be suitable. DSI shall take reasonable steps to ensure that the various agents appointed by it to sell Annuity Contracts shall not make recommendations to an applicant to purchase Annuity Contracts in the absence of reasonable grounds to believe that the purchase of Annuity Contracts is suitable for such applicant. While not limited to the following, a determination of suitability shall be based on information furnished to an agent after reasonable inquiry concerning the applicant's insurance and investment objectives and financial situation and needs.
