<![CDATA[
Federal Register / Vol. 85, No. 214 / Wednesday, November 4, 2020 / Notices
request an order under section 17(d) and
rule 17d–1 under the Act to the extent
necessary to permit the Funds to impose
asset-based service and distribution
fees. Applicants have agreed to comply
with rules 12b–1 and 17d–3 as if those
rules applied to closed-end investment
companies, which they believe will
resolve any concerns that might arise in
connection with a Fund financing the
distribution of its shares through assetbased service and distribution fees.
3. For the reasons stated above,
applicants submit that the exemptions
requested under section 6(c) are
necessary and appropriate in the public
interest and are consistent with the
protection of investors and the purposes
fairly intended by the policy and
provisions of the Act. Applicants further
submit that the relief requested
pursuant to section 23(c)(3) will be
consistent with the protection of
investors and will insure that applicants
do not unfairly discriminate against any
holders of the class of securities to be
purchased. Finally, applicants state that
the Funds’ imposition of asset-based
service and distribution fees is
consistent with the provisions, policies,
and purposes of the Act and does not
involve participation on a basis different
from or less advantageous than that of
other participants.
Applicants’ Condition
Applicants agree that any order
granting the requested relief will be
subject to the following condition:
Each Fund relying on the order will
comply with the provisions of rules 6c–
10, 12b–1, 17d–3, 18f–3, 22d–1, and,
where applicable, 11a–3 under the Act,
as amended from time to time, as if
those rules applied to closed-end
management investment companies,
and will comply with the Sales Charge
Rule, as amended from time to time, as
if that rule applied to all closed-end
management investment companies.
For the Commission, by the Division of
Investment Management, under delegated
authority.

Assistant Secretary.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Applicants’ Representations
1. NYLIAC is a Delaware stock life
insurance company. NYLIAC is an
indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of
New York Life Insurance Company, a
mutual life insurance company.
NYLIAC serves as the depositor of the
Separate Accounts, which are
segregated asset accounts NYLIAC that
fund the Contracts.
2. Each Separate Account, except for
Private VUL I and Private VUL II, is
registered under the 1940 Act as a unit
PO 00000
Frm 00087
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
70213
investment trust.1 Each Separate
Account meets the definition of
‘‘separate account’’ contained in Section
2(a)(37) of the 1940 Act. Interests under
the Contracts, except for Contracts
issued through Private VUL I and
Private VUL II, are registered under the
Securities Act of 1933.2 Each Account is
divided into subaccounts, each of which
invests exclusively in the securities of
an underlying insurance-dedicated
mutual fund (‘‘Portfolio’’). The
application sets forth the registration
statement file numbers for the Contracts
and the Separate Accounts, with the
exceptions of Private VUL I and Private
VUL II.
3. The Contracts include the variable
annuity contracts and the variable
universal life policies. The Contracts
may be issued as individual or group
Contracts. Contract owners and
participants in group Contracts (each a
‘‘Contract Owner’’ and collectively, the
‘‘Contract Owners’’) may allocate some
or all of their Contract value to one or
more Subaccounts that are available as
investment options under the Contracts.
4. Each Contract permits its owner to
transfer all or a portion of the Contract
value from one Subaccount to another at
any time, subject to certain policy
limitations, as well as potential
restrictions if NYLIAC determines that
such transfers may disadvantage or
potentially harm the rights and interests
of other policy holders. No sales charges
applies to any such transfer of Contract
value among Subaccounts. None of the
Contracts currently assess a transfer
charge, and no transfer charges will
apply in connection with the Proposed
Substitutions.
5. Under the Contracts, NYLIAC
reserves the right to substitute, for the
shares of a Portfolio held in any
Subaccount, the shares of another
Portfolio. NYLIAC, on behalf of itself
and its Separate Accounts, proposes to
substitute shares of one Portfolio for that
of another Portfolio by replacing the
shares of four Existing Portfolios that are
held in Subaccounts of their Separate
Accounts with shares of the
corresponding Replacement Portfolios
as shown in the table below. NYLIAC
states that the proposed Substitutions
are part of an ongoing effort to make
their Contracts more attractive to
existing and prospective Contract
Owners. Additional information for
1 Private VUL I and Private VUL II are exempt
from registration under the 1940 Act pursuant to
Sections 3(c)(1) and 3(c)(7) thereof.
2 Contracts issued through Private VUL I and
Private VUL II are sold without registration under
the 1933 Act in reliance on the private offering
exemption of Section 4(2) of the 1933 Act and
Regulation D thereunder.
