PART C

OTHER INFORMATION

Item 15. Indemnification.

     Reference is made to Article X of the Trust Instrument of the PIMCO Variable Insurance Trust (the "Trust") (filed as Exhibit (1)(a) hereto), which is incorporated by reference herein.

     Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to trustees, officers and controlling persons of the Trust by the Trust pursuant to the Trust's Trust Instrument, its By-Laws or otherwise, the Trust is aware that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission, such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Act and, therefore, is unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the Trust of expenses incurred or paid by trustees, officers or controlling persons of the Trust in connection with the successful defense of any act, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such trustees, officers or controlling persons in connection with shares being registered, the Trust will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whethe r such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issues.
