Re: | Request for Withdrawal of Amended Registration Statements on Form N-4 |
Pursuant to Rule 477 under the Securities Act of 1933
| Registrants and Depositors shown in Appendix A |
Commissioners:
On October 9, 2008, the amended registration statements on Form N-4 shown in Appendix A (the “Amended Registration Statements”) were filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) pursuant to Rule 485(a) under the Securities Act of 1933 (the “Securities Act”).
Pursuant to Rule 477 under the Securities Act, on behalf of each Registrant and Depositor shown in Appendix A, we hereby request withdrawal of all the Amended Registration Statements. Application is being made for withdrawal because erroneous effective dates were affixed to the filings. New post-effective amendments will be filed with the correct effective dates. No securities have been issued using the Amended Registration Statements.
If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to call me at 203-925-6960. Thank you.
Very truly yours,
