Terms of Annuity Options. The minimum first payment amount must be at least $50 per month and at least $250 per year. If the Certificate Holder elects a fixed Annuity and We determine that the Certificate Holder would receive larger payments by applying the Certificate Holder's Account Value, reduced by the deferred sales charge, to a single premium immediate Annuity currently offered by Us, We will make the larger payments. We determine the first payment of a variable Annuity, or the payment amount of a fixed Annuity, using the Annuitant's (and second Annuitant's if applicable) adjusted age which We calculate as follows:
(a) If Annuity payments begin any time between July 1, 1992 and December 31, 1999, the adjusted age is the Annuitant's age as of the birthday closest in time to the Annuity Date reduced by one (1) year.
(b) If the Annuity begins any time between January 1, 2000 and December 31, 2009, the adjusted age is the Annuitant's age as of the birthday closest in time to the Annuity Date reduced by two (2) years.
(c) For each succeeding decade, the adjusted age is the Annuitant's age as determined in (b), reduced by one additional year. The Annuity rates for Options 2 and 3 are based on mortality from 1983 Table A. Assumed Annual Net Return Rate is the interest rate used to determine the amount of the first Annuity payment under a variable Annuity. The Separate Account must earn this rate plus enough to cover the mortality and expense risks charges (which may include profit) and administrative charges if future variable Annuity payments are to remain level. The Certificate Holder must give written notice to Us at least 30 days before the Annuity payments begin, electing or changing:
(a) The date on which Annuity payments are to begin; (b) The Annuity Option; (c) Whether the payments are to be made monthly, quarterly, semiannually or annually; (

(c) If a Fixed Annuity under Option 2, 3 or 4 is chosen, we will use the applicable current settlement rate to pay the Annuity benefit. The Annuity benefit at the time of commencement will not be less than would be provided by the application of an amount to purchase any single consideration immediate contract offered by the Company, at that time, to the same class of annuitants. Such amount shall be the present value of the paid-up Annuity benefit under this Contract.
(d) For purposes of calculating the guaranteed first payment of a Variable Annuity or the payments for a Fixed Annuity, the Annuitant's and second Annuitant's adjusted age will be used. The Annuitant's and second Xxxxxxxxx's adjusted age is his or her age as of the birthday closest to the Annuity commencement date reduced by two years for Annuity commencement dates occurring during the period of time from January 1, 2000 through December 31, 2009. The Annuitant's and second Annuitant's age will be reduced by one additional year for Annuity commencement dates occurring in each succeeding decade.
