ANNUITANT AND BENEFICIARY. Owner The Owner is as shown on the Specifications Page. Upon the death of an Owner prior to the Annuity Income Date, a Death Benefit is paid. You may exercise all rights and options granted in this contract or by us, subject to the consent of any irrevocable Beneficiary (where applicable). Where there are joint Owners, the consent of both is required in order to exercise any ownership rights. Assignment You may not assign this contract. Annuitant The Annuitant is as shown on the Specifications Page. Upon the death of an Annuitant prior to the Annuity Income Date, a Death Benefit is paid. Beneficiary The Beneficiary is as shown on the Specifications Page unless subsequently changed. You may declare any Beneficiary to be revocable or irrevocable. A revocable Beneficiary may be changed at any time (a) before the Annuity Income Date and before the death of an Owner or an Annuitant; or (b) after the Annuity Income Date and before the death of the Annuitant. An irrevocable Beneficiary must consent in writing to any change of beneficiary. Unless otherwise indicated, the Beneficiary will be revocable. A Beneficiary change must be made by Request. When we receive the Request, the change will take place as of the date it was signed, even if an Owner or an Annuitant dies after the form is signed but prior to our receipt of the Request. Any rights created by the change will be subject to payments we made or actions taken before the change was recorded. All benefits payable to the Beneficiary under this contract will be divided equally among the surviving Beneficiaries of the same class (see your Specifications Page), unless you direct otherwise. If there is no surviving Beneficiary in a particular class, then the benefit is divided equally among the surviving Beneficiaries of the next class. If there is no surviving Beneficiary, the deceased Beneficiary's interest will pass to you or your estate. If your contract has Joint Owners, and one Owner dies, the surviving joint Owner is the primary Beneficiary. This is confirmed on the Specifications Page. Once entitled to benefits under this contract, the Beneficiary may transfer or commute the annuity payments or any values provided as long as he or she has been given that right by you. Protection of Proceeds To the extent allowed by law, this contract and any payments made under it will be exempt from the claims of creditors.

ANNUITANT AND BENEFICIARY. Owner's Rights Unless otherwise stated in this contract, you may exercise all rights and privileges provided in this contract or allowed by us. Change of Ownership You can change the ownership of this contract by written request on a form approved by us. The change must be made while the annuitant is living. Once we receive the change, it will take effect as of the date of your request, subject to any action taken or payment made by us before receipt. Naming a Beneficiary Unless designated otherwise, beneficiaries are those you name, in a form satisfactory to us, to receive benefits of this contract if you die while this contract is in force. We must receive the form in our corporate office prior to the date of death. For joint spousal ownership with right of survivorship, the surviving spouse is deemed the sole beneficiary superseding any other beneficiary designation. This permits the surviving spouse to use the spousal continuation at death option described in the "Payments to Beneficiary" section of the contract. (The deemed surviving spouse sole beneficiary designation may only be overridden if specifically requested in writing and signed by both joint spousal owners.) If the annuity is jointly owned by non-spousal owners, then the annuity balance will be paid to the beneficiary at the death of the first joint owner. If the owner is other than a natural person (e.g., a trust or corporation), and the annuitant dies before settlement, death benefits are payable to the beneficiary. Only those beneficiaries who are living when death benefits become payable may share in the benefits, if any. Benefits will be paid to all primary beneficiaries surviving you, in accordance with your last beneficiary designation on file. If none survive, proceeds will be paid to all surviving contingent beneficiaries. If no beneficiary survives, we will pay the benefits as follows: - if the owner is other than a natural person, we will pay the owner, otherwise; - to your spouse, if living; - if no spouse is living, to your lawful children per stirpes; - if you have no spouse or direct descendents, to your parents equally or the survivor; if living, otherwise to your estate. The owner may change the beneficiary as provided below. Change of Beneficiary If the annuitant is still living, you may change the beneficiary anytime by satisfactory written request to us. Once we receive the change, it will take effect as of the date of your request, subject to any action taken or payment...
