ANNUITY PROVISIONS. Choice of Annuity Date — Unless otherwise changed as provided below, the Annuity Date is shown in the Contract Specifications. We assigned the Annuity Date based on the Contract type chosen and the Annuitant’s Age shown in the application for this Contract. If there are Joint Annuitants, the Annuity Date was based on the younger Annuitant’s birthday. The Annuity Date may be changed by providing proper notice to us at least ten (10) Business Days prior to the current Annuity Date or new Annuity Date, whichever is earlier, subject to any applicable state law or the Code. The new Annuity Date may not be earlier than the first Contract Anniversary and must occur on or before the day the Annuitant reaches his or her 95th birthday, or earlier, as required by any applicable state law or the Code.

You should consult with your Qualified Plan administrator before you elect an Annuity Date.

ANNUITY PROVISIONS. VARIABLE ANNUITY PAYMENTS The amount of the first Variable Annuity payment is determined by applying the portion of the Contract Value used to effect a Variable Annuity (minus any applicable premium taxes) to the appropriate table(s) contained in this Contract. If the table in use by us on the Maturity Date is more favorable to you, we will use that table. The portion of the Contract Value used to effect a Variable Annuity will be measured as of a date not more than 10 business days prior to the Maturity Date. Subsequent payments will be based on the investment performance of one or more Sub-Accounts as you select. The amount of such payments is determined by the number of Annuity Units credited for each Sub-Account. Such number is determined by dividing the portion of the first payment allocated to that Sub-Account by the Annuity Unit value for that Sub-Account determined as of the same date that the Contract Value used to effect annuity payments was determined. This number of Annuity Units for each Sub-Account is then multiplied by the appropriate Annuity Unit value for each subsequent determination date, which is a uniformly applied date not more than 10 business days before the payment is due. MORTALITY AND EXPENSE We guarantee that the dollar amount of each GUARANTEE variable annuity payment will not be affected by changes in mortality and expense experience. ANNUITY UNIT VALUE The value of an Annuity Unit for each Sub-Account for any Valuation Period is determined as follows:
(a) The net investment factor for the Sub-Account for the Valuation Period for which the Annuity Unit value is being calculated is multiplied by the value of the Annuity Unit for the preceding Valuation Period; and
(b) The result is adjusted to compensate for the interest rate assumed in the tables used to determine the first Variable Annuity payment. The dollar value of Annuity Units may increase, decrease or remain the same from one Valuation Period to the next. FIXED ANNUITY PAYMENTS The amount of each Fixed Annuity payment is determined by applying the portion of the Contract Value used to effect a Fixed Annuity measured as of a date not more than 10 business days prior to the Maturity Date (minus any applicable premium taxes) to the appropriate table(s) contained in the Contract. If the table in use by us on the Maturity Date is more favorable to the Owner, we will use that table. We guarantee the dollar amount of Fixed Annuity payments.
ANNUITY PROVISIONS. ANNUITY DATE You may select an Annuity Date at any time during the Accumulation Period. You must notify us of this date at least 30 days prior to the date you wish your annuity payments to begin. The Annuity Date must be the first day of a calendar month. The Annuity Date may not be later than the earlier of when the Annuitant reaches attained age 85 or the maximum date permitted under state law. Prior to the Annuity Date, you may, subject to the above, change the Annuity Date by written request. Any change must be requested at least 30 days prior to the new Annuity Date.

If no option is selected, Option 2 with 120 monthly payments guaranteed will automatically be applied. Prior to the Annuity Date, you may change the Annuity Option selected by written request. Any change must be requested at least 30 days prior to the Annuity Date. If an option is based on life expectancy, proof of the payee's date of birth will be required. ANNUITY OPTIONS You may elect to have a Fixed Annuity, a Variable Annuity, or a combination Fixed Annuity and Variable Annuity. Depending on your election, the Adjusted Account Value will be applied to provide the annuity payment. If no election has been made 30 days prior to the Annuity Date, amounts in fixed investment options will be used to provide a fixed annuity and amounts in variable investment options will be used to provide a variable annuity. The amount of the first annuity payment will depend on the Annuity Option elected and the age of the Annuitant at the time the first payment is due. The Adjusted Account Value will be applied to the applicable Annuity Table based upon the Annuity Option you selected. The Annuity Tables show the amount of the first annuity payments for each $1,000 of Adjusted Account Value.
