(b)<br />

Total return is calculated assuming a purchase of a share on the first day and a sale on the last day of each year reported and includes reinvestment of<br />

dividends and distributions and does not reflect the effect of insurance contract charges. Total return does not reflect expenses associated with the separate<br />

account such as administrative fees, account charges and surrender charges which, if reflected, would reduce the total return for all periods shown.<br />

Performance figures may reflect voluntary fee waivers and/or expense reimbursements. In the absence of voluntary fee waivers and/or expense<br />

reimbursements, the total return would be lower. Past performance is no guarantee of future results. Total returns may reflect adjustments to conform to<br />

generally accepted accounting principles.<br />

Does not include expenses of the underlying portfolio in which the Portfolio invests.<br />
