BUSINESS COVERED
AGREEMENT EFFECTIVE DATE:
July 1, 2007.
COVERAGE:
The Riders on the plans shown below which have base contract and Rider issue
dates falling in the period that begins with the January 1, 2007 and ends with

below, provided that the Riders are sold to residents of the United States or

for A and C shares exceeded (2)
(4) Any A or C share policies issued after and including this date through
the end of the calendar year will not be reinsured under this
Agreement.
The Reinsurer will perform the above calculation by the last day of the first
Accounting Period in each calendar year. The Reinsurer will provide the Company
with a list of any A and C share contracts that were issued in the prior
calendar year that will not be covered under this Agreement by the last day of
the first Accounting Period in each calendar year.

ASSET ALLOCATION INVESTMENT MODELS
AMERICAN LEGACY FUNDAMENTAL GROWTH MODEL
INVESTMENT OBJECTIVE: Long-term growth of capital.
INVESTMENT STRATEGY: The model invests approximately 90% of its assets in
underlying subaccounts that invest primarily in equity securities, and
approximately 10% of its assets in underlying subaccounts that invest
primarily in fixed income securities.
AMERICAN LEGACY FUNDAMENTAL GROWTH AND INCOME MODEL
INVESTMENT OBJECTIVE: A balance between a high level of current income and
growth of capital, with a greater emphasis on growth of capital.
INVESTMENT STRATEGY: The model invests approximately 20% of its assets in
underlying subaccounts that invest primarily in fixed income securities,
and approximately 80% in underlying subaccounts that invest primarily in
equity securities.
AMERICAN LEGACY FUNDAMENTAL BALANCED MODEL
INVESTMENT OBJECTIVE: A balance between a high level of current income and
growth of capital, with an emphasis on growth of capital.
INVESTMENT STRATEGY: The model invests approximately 40% of its assets in
underlying subaccounts that invest primarily in fixed income securities,
and approximately 60% in underlying subaccounts that invest primarily in
equity securities.
AMERICAN LEGACY FUNDAMENTAL INCOME MODEL
INVESTMENT OBJECTIVE: A high level of current income with some
consideration given to growth of capital.
INVESTMENT STRATEGY: The model invests approximately 60% of its assets in
underlying subaccounts that invest primarily in fixed income securities,
and approximately 40% in underlying subaccounts that invest primarily in
equity securities.
Owners participating in these models must have 100% of their account value
allocated to a single model and must participate in the quarterly rebalancing
program. These asset allocation models invest in the underlying investment
portfolios of the American Legacy contract. The asset allocation is set at
contract issue and can not be changed by Lincoln, however the contract owner may
cancel the program and re-allocate their account value among any of the
investment options under the contract.
AMERICAN LEGACY - INVESTMENT REQUIREMENTS - OPTION 1
Contractowners who have elected 4LATER(R) Advantage, the LINCOLN
SMARTSECURITY(R) Advantage, or i4LIFE(R) Advantage with the Guaranteed Income
Benefit will be subject to the following requirements on variable subaccount
investments. If any of these benefits are not elected, the Investment
Requirements will not apply to the contract.
Investment Requirements will be enforced as of June 30, 2009. Note: It is
acknowledged and understood that an initial notification was sent to contract
owners in their first quarter statements and in the May 1, 2009 product
prospectus. The decision to enforce these Investment Requirements is based on
the subaccount investments of the contractowners who have these riders and
market conditions.
No more than 35% of the contract value (includes Account Value if i4LIFE(R)
Advantage is in effect) can be invested in the following subaccounts ("Limited
Subaccounts"):
- Global Discovery
- Global Growth
- Global Growth and Income
- Global Small Capitalization
- High-Income Bond
- International
- International Growth & Income
- New World
All other variable subaccounts will be referred to as "Non-Limited Subaccounts".
The contractowner can select the percentages of contract value, if any,
allocated to the Limited Subaccounts, but the cumulative total investment in all
the Limited Subaccounts cannot exceed 35% of the total contract value. On each
quarterly anniversary of the effective date of any of these benefits, if the
contract value in the Limited Subaccounts exceeds 35%, the Company will
rebalance the contract value so that the contract value in the Limited
Subaccounts is 30%.
If rebalancing is required, the contract value in excess of 30% will be removed
from the Limited Subaccounts on a pro rata basis and invested in the remaining
Non-Limited Subaccounts on a pro rata basis according to the contract value
percentages in the Non-Limited Subaccounts at the time of the reallocation. If
there is no contract value in the Non-Limited Subaccounts at that time, all
contract value removed from the Limited Subaccounts will be placed in the
American Funds Cash Management subaccount.
Subaccounts may move on or off the Limited Subaccount list, exclude Subaccounts
and asset allocation models from being available for investment, change the
number of Limited Subaccount groups, change the percentages of contract value
allowed in the Limited Subaccounts, or change the frequency of the contract
value rebalancing at the Company's sole discretion, but changes are limited to
no more than once per calendar year. The contractowner will be notified at least
30 days prior to the date of any change. Such modifications may be made at any
time when the Company believes the modifications are necessary to protect its
ability to provide the guarantees under these Riders. The decision to make
modifications will be based on several factors including the general market
conditions and the style and investment objectives of the subaccount
investments.
When the contractowner is notified of a change or when the Company intends to
enforce the Investment Requirements, the contractowner may:
1. drop the applicable rider immediately, without waiting for a
termination event if the contractowner does not wish to be subject to
these Investment Requirements;
2. submit his/her own reallocation instructions for the contract value in
excess of 35% in the Limited Subaccounts; or
3. take no action and be subject to the quarterly rebalancing as
described above.

comply with the specified minimum or maximum percentages for that group. In
accordance with these Investment Requirements, you agree to be automatically
enrolled in the portfolio rebalancing option under your contract and thereby
authorize us to automatically rebalance your contract value on a periodic basis.
On each quarterly anniversary of the effective date of the Rider, we will
rebalance your contract value, on a pro-rata basis, based on your allocation
instructions in effect at the time of the rebalancing. Confirmation of the
rebalancing will appear on your quarterly statement and you will not receive an
individual confirmation after each reallocation. If we rebalance contract value
from the subaccounts and your allocation instructions do not contain any
subaccounts that meet the Investment Requirements then that portion of the
rebalanced contract value that does not meet the Investment Requirements will be
allocated to the Delaware-Limited-Term Diversified Income Series as the default
investment option or any other subaccount that we may designate for that
purpose. These investments will become your allocation instructions until you
tell us otherwise.
We may change the list of subaccounts in a group, change the number of groups,
change the minimum or maximum percentages of contract value allowed in a group,
change the investment options that are or are not available to you, or change
the rebalancing frequency at any time in our sole discretion. You will be
notified at least 30 days prior to the date of any change. We may make such
modifications at any time when we believe the modifications are necessary to
protect our ability to provide the guarantees under these Riders. Our decision
to make modifications will be based on several factors including the general
market conditions and the style and investment objectives of the subaccount
investments.
At the time you receive notice of a change to the Investment Requirements, you
may:
1. drop the applicable rider immediately, without waiting for a
termination event if you do not wish to be subject to these Investment
Requirements;
2. submit your own reallocation instructions for the contract value,
before the effective date specified in the notice, so that the
Investment Requirements are satisfied; or
3. take no action and be subject to the quarterly rebalancing as
described above. If this results is a change to your allocation
instructions, then these will be your new allocation instructions
until you tell us otherwise.
