Joint Annuitant. The Owner may elect to add a Joint Annuitant prior to the first Eligible Withdrawal, or the election of an Optional Income Plan, whichever occurs first. If a Joint Annuitant has been elected, then we will pay the Benefit Payments or income plan payments, as applicable, for the lifetime of the Annuitant or Joint Annuitant, whoever lives longer. The Joint Annuitant cannot be changed or removed once the first Eligible Withdrawal has been taken or the Payout Phase has begun, whichever occurs first. The Certificate cannot have more than one Joint Annuitant. If there is only one Owner, and Joint Annuitant is selected, then the Joint Annuitant must be the Owner’s Spouse who must also be the sole Primary Beneficiary of the Certificate. If there are joint Owners, and a Joint Annuitant is selected, then the Joint Annuitant must be the other Owner. If the Owner is a non-living person, other than the custodian or trustee of an IRA, a Joint Annuitant is not allowed. If the Owner is the custodian or trustee of an IRA, and a Joint Annuitant is selected, then the Joint Annuitant must be the Spouse of the Annuitant and the sole beneficiary of the IRA. The Owner assumes responsibility for ensuring that the Joint Annuitant satisfies these conditions at the time of issue and until the Certificate terminates. We may require proof of age, sex and marriage when the Joint Annuitant is added to the Certificate. Beneficiary For purposes of the Payout Phase section, and Certificate continuation under the Death of Owner provision, there are two classes of Beneficiaries, Primary Beneficiary(ies) and Contingent Beneficiary(ies). Primary Beneficiaries and Contingent Beneficiaries are individually and collectively referred to herein as “Beneficiaries.” The Primary Beneficiary is the person(s) named on the Certificate Data Page unless later changed by the Owner. The Primary Beneficiary is the Beneficiary(ies) who is first entitled to receive benefits under the Certificate upon the death of the sole surviving Owner. The Contingent Beneficiary is the person(s) named on the Certificate Data Page unless later changed by the Owner. The Contingent Beneficiary is entitled to receive benefits under the Certificate upon the death of the sole surviving Owner, when all Primary Beneficiaries predecease the sole surviving Owner. Unless the Owner has designated an irrevocable Beneficiary, the Owner may change or add Beneficiaries at any time, subject to the Joint Annuitant provision, by written request...
