--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
SEPARATE ACCOUNT PROVISIONS
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
THE SEPARATE ACCOUNT. The Separate Accounts consist of assets set aside by the
Company, which are kept separate from that of the general assets and any other
Separate Account assets of the Company. The assets of the Separate Account will
not be charged with liabilities arising out of any other business the Company
may conduct.
The Separate Account assets are divided into Sub-accounts. The assets of the
Sub-accounts are allocated to the Eligible Fund(s) and the Portfolio(s), if any,
within an Eligible Fund. Should the shares of any such Eligible Fund(s), or any
Portfolio(s) within an Eligible Fund, become unavailable for investment by the
Separate Account, or the Company's Board of Directors deems further investment
in these shares inappropriate, the Company may limit further purchase of such
shares or substitute shares of another Eligible Fund or Portfolio for shares
already purchased under this contract.
VALUATION OF ASSETS. The assets of the Sub-accounts are valued at their fair
market value in accordance with Company procedures.
ACCUMULATION UNITS. Accumulation Units shall be used to account for all amounts
allocated to, or withdrawn from, the Sub-accounts of the Separate Account as a
result of Purchase Payments, withdrawals, transfers, fees and charges. The
Company will determine the number of Accumulation Units of a Sub-account
purchased or cancelled. This will be done by dividing the amount allocated to
(or the amount withdrawn from) the Sub-account by the dollar value of one
Accumulation Unit of the Sub-account as of the Business Day that the request for
the transaction is received at Our Administrative Office.
ACCUMULATION UNIT VALUE. The initial Accumulation Unit value for each
Sub-account was arbitrarily set at $10. Subsequent Accumulation Unit values for
each Sub-account are determined each Business Day by multiplying the
Accumulation Unit value for the immediately preceding Business Day by the net
investment factor for the Sub-account for the current Business Day. The net
investment factor for each Sub-account is determined by dividing A by B and
subtracting C where:
A is: (i) the net asset value per share of the Eligible Fund or
Portfolio of an Eligible Fund held by the Sub-account as of the
current Business Day; plus
(ii) any dividend or capital gain per share declared on behalf of such
Eligible Fund or Portfolio that has an ex-dividend date as of the
current Business Day; plus
(iii)a charge-factor, if any, for any taxes or any tax reserve
established by the Company as a result of the operation or
maintenance of the Sub-account(s).
B is the net asset value per share of the Eligible Fund or Portfolio
held by the Sub-account for the immediately preceding Business Day.
C is the Business Day equivalent of the insurance charges, if any, that
are shown in the contract schedule.
The accumulation unit value may increase or decrease from Business Day to
Business Day.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
SEPARATE ACCOUNT PROVISIONS (continued)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
INSURANCE CHARGES. Each business day the Company deducts insurance charges from
the Separate Account that are equal, on an annual basis, to the amount shown on
the contract schedule. The insurance charges compensate the Company for assuming
the mortality and expense risks, costs associated with the administration of
this contract, and if so elected, to provide for certain benefits.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
CONTRACT VALUE PROVISION
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
CONTRACT VALUE. The Contract Value as of any Business Day is the sum of the
Contract Value in each of the Sub-accounts of the Separate Account.
The Contract Value in a Sub-account of the Separate Account is determined by
multiplying the number of Accumulation Units allocated to the Owner's account
for the Sub-account by the Accumulation Unit value.
Withdrawals will result in the cancellation of Accumulation Units in a
Sub-account.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
CONTRACT MAINTENANCE FEE PROVISION
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
CONTRACT MAINTENANCE FEE DEDUCTION. On each Contract Anniversary the Company
will deduct a contract maintenance fee from the Contract Value for reimbursement
of expenses relating to maintenance of the contract as shown on the contract
schedule. The Company will do this by canceling Accumulation Units from each
applicable Sub-account. The contract maintenance fee will be deducted from the
Sub-account of the Separate Account with the largest balance.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
TRANSFER PROVISIONS
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
TRANSFERS DURING THE ACCUMULATION PERIOD. Subject to any limitation imposed by
the Company on the number of transfers during the Accumulation Period, shown on
the contract schedule, an Owner may transfer all or part of the Contract Value
in a Sub-account. The Owner may do this by Written Request. All transfers are
subject to the following:
1. If more than the number of free transfers have been made in a 30-day
period, the Company will deduct a transfer fee for each subsequent transfer
made. The frequency and number of free transfers are shown on the contract
schedule. The transfer fee is deducted from the Account that is the source
of the transfer. However, if the Owner's entire interest in an Account is
being transferred, then the transfer fee will be deducted from the amount
being transferred. If there are multiple-source Accounts, the transfer fee
will be allocated to the Sub-account with the largest balance that is
involved in the transfer transaction.
2. The contract schedule shows: a) the minimum amount that may be transferred
from a Sub-account; b) the minimum amount that must remain in a
Sub-account.
3. An Owner's right to make transfers is subject to modification if the
Company determines, in the Company's sole opinion, that the exercise of the
right by one or more Owners is or would be to the disadvantage of other
Owners. Restrictions may be applied in any manner reasonably designed to
prevent any use of the transfer right which is considered by the Company to
be to the disadvantage of the Owners. A modification could be applied to
the transfers to or from one or more of the Sub-accounts and could include,
but not be limited to: a) the requirement of a minimum time period between
each transfer; b) not accepting a transfer request from an agent acting
under a power of attorney on behalf of more than one Owner; or c) limiting
the dollar amount that may be transferred between the Sub-accounts by an
Owner at any one time.
4. The Company reserves the right, at any time, and without prior notice to
any party, to terminate, suspend or modify the transfer privilege described
above.
If an Owner elects to use this transfer privilege, the Company will not be
liable for transfers made in accordance with the instructions received from the
Owner or other authorized persons. All amounts and Accumulation Units will be
determined as of the Business Day during which the request for transfer is
received at Our Administrative Office.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
TRANSFER PROVISIONS (continued)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
TRANSFERS DURING THE ANNUITY PERIOD. Subject to any limitations imposed by the
Company on the number of transfers allowed during the Annuity Period, shown on
the contract schedule, the Owner may transfer Annuity Units as follows:
1. Transfers may be made upon Written Request to the Company at least thirty
(30) days before the due date of the next Annuity Payment for which the
change will apply. Transfers will be made by converting the number of
Annuity Units being transferred to the number of Annuity Units of the
selected Sub-account to which the transfer is made, so that the next
Annuity Payment, if it were made at that time, would be the same amount
that it would have been without the transfer. Thereafter, Annuity Payments
will reflect changes in the value of the new Annuity Units.
2. If more than the number of free transfers, shown on the contract schedule,
have been made in a Contract Year, the Company will deduct a transfer fee,
shown on the contract schedule, for each subsequent transfer. The transfer
fee is deducted from the Account that is the source of the transfer.
However, if the Owner's entire interest in an Account is being transferred,
the transfer fee will be deducted from the amount that is transferred. If
there are multiple-source Accounts, the transfer fee will be deducted from
the Sub-account with the largest balance that was involved in the
transaction.
3. The minimum amount that can be transferred from a Sub-account is shown on
the contract schedule. The minimum amount that must remain in a Sub-account
and Fixed Account after a transfer is shown on the contract schedule.
4. The Company reserves the right, at any time and without prior notice, to
terminate, suspend or modify the transfer privilege described above.
If an Owner elects to use the transfer privilege, the Company will not be liable
for transfers made in accordance with instructions received from the Owner or
other authorized persons. All amounts and Annuity Units will be determined as of
the Business Day during which the request for transfer is received at Our
Administrative Office.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
WITHDRAWAL PROVISIONS
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
WITHDRAWALS. During the Accumulation Period, the Owner may make full or partial
withdrawals of the Contract Withdrawal Value by Written Request. The Owner must
indicate in the Written Request which Sub-account is intended to be the source
of the partial withdrawal.
We will pay the amount of any withdrawal from the Separate Account within seven
(7) days of receipt of a Written Request unless the Suspension or Deferral of
Payments provision is in effect.
Each partial withdrawal must be for an amount that is not less than the minimum
amount shown on the contract schedule. The minimum Contract Value that must
remain in a Sub-account after a partial withdrawal is shown on the contract
schedule.
CONTINGENT DEFERRED SALES CHARGE. Upon withdrawal of all or part of the
Contract, a contingent deferred sales charge may be assessed as stated on the
contract schedule,
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
PROCEEDS PAYABLE AT DEATH PROVISIONS
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
DEATH OF OWNER DURING ACCUMULATION PERIOD. Upon the death of the Owner, or any
Joint Owner, during the Accumulation Period, the death benefit will be paid to
the beneficiary(ies) designated by the Owner(s). Upon the death of a Joint
Owner, the surviving Owner will be treated as the primary beneficiary. Any other
beneficiary designation on record at the time of death will be treated as a
contingent beneficiary. The death benefit must be paid under one of the death
benefit options below. However, if the beneficiary is the spouse of the Owner,
he or she may elect to continue the contract, at the then current Contract
Value, in his or her own name and exercise all the ownership rights under the
contract.
DEATH BENEFIT AMOUNT. During the Accumulation Period, if death of an Owner
occurs prior to age 80, the death benefit will be the greater of: a) the
Contract Value; or b) total Purchase Payments less any partial withdrawals and
contingent deferred sales charges. If age 80 or older, the death benefit will be
equal to the Contract Value. The Contract Value will be determined as of the
Business Day the Company receives both due proof of death and an election for
the payment method. If Joint Owners are named, the death benefit is determined
based on the age of the oldest Owner.
After the death benefit amount is determined, it remains in the Separate Account
until distribution begins. From the time the death benefit is determined until
complete distribution is made, any amount in the Sub-account will be subject to
investment risk, which is borne by the Beneficiary.
DEATH BENEFIT OPTIONS DURING ACCUMULATION PERIOD. The Owner may designate in
writing that the death benefit be paid under one of the options available below.
It the Owner doesn't designate an option, then the Beneficiary must elect the
death benefit to be paid under one of the following options in the event of the
death of the Owner or a Joint Owner during the Accumulation Period:
o Option 1 - Lump sum payment of the death benefit; or
o Option 2 - Payment of the entire death benefit within five (5) years of the
date of the death of the Owner or any Joint Owner; or
o Option 3 - Payment of the death benefit under an Annuity Option over the
lifetime of the Beneficiary, or over a period not extending beyond the life
expectancy of the Beneficiary, with distribution beginning within one (1)
year of the date of death of the Owner or Joint Owner.
Any portion of the death benefit not applied under Option 3, within one (1) year
of the date of the Owner's death, must be distributed within five (5) years of
the date of death.
Unless the Owner has previously designated one of the above payment options, a
Beneficiary who is a spouse of the Owner may elect to: a) continue the contract
in his or her own name at the then current Contract Value; b) elect a lump sum
payment of the death benefit; or c) or apply the death benefit to an Annuity
Option.
If a lump sum payment is requested, the amount will be paid within seven (7)
days of receipt of proof of death and the payment election, unless the
Suspension or Deferral of Payments provision, as set forth on page 13 is in
effect. Payment to the Beneficiary, other than in a lump sum, may only be
elected during the sixty-day (60) period beginning with the date of receipt of
proof of death.
DEATH BENEFIT OPTION DURING THE ANNUITY PERIOD. If the Owner, or any Joint
Owner, who is not the Annuitant, dies during the Annuity Period, any remaining
payments under the Annuity Option elected will continue at least as rapidly as
under the method of distribution in effect at such Owner's or Joint Owner's
death. Upon the death of any Owner during the Annuity Period, the Beneficiary
becomes the Owner. Upon the death of any Joint Owner during the Annuity period,
the surviving owner, if any, will be treated as the primary Beneficiary. Any
other Beneficiary designation on record at the time of death will be treated as
a Contingent Beneficiary.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
PROCEEDS PAYABLE AT DEATH PROVISIONS (CONTINUED)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
DEATH OF ANNUITANT. Upon the death of an Annuitant, who is not the Owner, during
the Accumulation Period, the Owner automatically becomes the Annuitant. The
Owner may designate a new Annuitant, subject to the Company's underwriting rules
then in effect. If the Owner is a non-natural person, the death of an Annuitant
will be treated as the death of the Owner and a new Annuitant may not be
designated.
Upon the death of an Annuitant during the Annuity Period, the death benefit, if
any, will be as specified in the Annuity Option elected. Death benefits will be
paid at least as rapidly as under the method of distribution in effect at the
Annuitant's death.
PAYMENT OF DEATH BENEFIT: The Company will require due proof of death of the
Annuitant before any death benefit is paid. Due proof of death will be:
1. a certified death certificate; or
2. a certified decree of a court of competent jurisdiction as to the
finding of death; or
3. any other proof satisfactory to the Company
All death benefits will be paid in accordance with applicable law or regulations
governing death benefit payments.
BENEFICIARY. The Beneficiary designation in effect on the Contract Issue Date
will remain in effect until changed. The Beneficiary is entitled to receive the
benefits to be paid at the death of the Owner.
Unless the Owner provides otherwise, the death benefit will be paid in equal
shares to the survivor(s) as follows:
1. the Primary Beneficiary(ies) who survive the Owner's and/or the
Annuitant's death, as applicable; or if none
2. the Contingent Beneficiary(ies) who survive the Owner's and/or the
Annuitant's death, as applicable; or if none
3. the estate of the Owner.
BENEFICIARY CHANGE. Subject to the rights of any irrevocable Beneficiary(ies),
the Owner may change the primary Beneficiary(ies) or contingent
Beneficiary(ies). A change may be made by Written Request. The change will take
effect as of the date the Written Request is signed. The Company will not be
liable for any payment made or action taken before it records the change.

under the Annuity Option selected if the Annuity Date occurs on or after the
fifth (5) Contract Anniversary and the Annuity Option is life contingency for a
minimum of five (5) years. If an Annuity Option combination is elected, the
Owner must specify what portion of the Contract Withdrawal Value is to be
applied to the fixed and variable options. In addition, the Owner may select a
lump sum payment .
ANNUITY DATE. The Annuity Date is selected by the Owner at the Contract Issue
Date. The Annuity Date must be the first day of a calendar month and must be at
least ninety (90) days after the Contract Issue Date. The Annuity Date may not
be later than the earlier of: a) the date the Annuitant reaches attained age 90;
or b) the maximum date permitted under applicable law.
Prior to the Annuity Date, the Owner, subject to the above, may change the
Annuity Date by Written Request. Any change must be requested at least thirty
(30) days prior to the new Annuity Date.
SELECTION OF AN ANNUITY OPTION: An Annuity Option may be selected by Written
Request of the Owner. If no Annuity Option is selected, Option 2 with 120
monthly payments guaranteed will automatically be applied. Unless specified
otherwise, that portion of the Contract Withdrawal Value allocated to the
Separate Account shall be used to provide a variable annuity, and that portion
of the Contract Withdrawal Value allocated to the Fixed Account will be used to
provide a Fixed Annuity. Prior to the Annuity Date, the Owner can change the
Annuity Option selected by Written Request. Any change must be requested at
least thirty (30) days prior to the Annuity Date.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
ANNUITIZATION PROVISIONS (CONTINUED)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
FREQUENCY AND AMOUNT OF ANNUITY PAYMENTS. Annuity Payments are paid in monthly
installments. The Contract Withdrawal Value is applied to the annuity table for
the Annuity Option selected. If the Contract Withdrawal Value applied under an
Annuity Option is less than $5,000, the Company reserves the right to make a
lump sum payment in lieu of Annuity Payments. If the Annuity Payment is ever
less than $50, the Company reserves the right to reduce the frequency of
payments to an interval which will result in each payment being at least $50.
ANNUITY OPTIONS: The following Annuity Options or any other Annuity Option
acceptable to the Company may be selected:
OPTION 1. INCOME FOR SPECIFIED PERIOD. We will pay an income for a specific
number of years in equal installments. We guarantee these payments to be at
least those shown in Table 1. However, when the Annuitant dies, if We have
made Annuity Payments for less than the specified period elected, We will
continue to make Annuity Payments to the Owner for the rest of the
specified period. If an Owner does not want to receive Annuity Payments, he
or she may ask Us for a single lump sum. A single sum payment will be equal
to the present value of remaining payments as of the date of receipt of
proof of death commuted at the assumed investment rate for a Variable
Annuity Option and at a Fixed Account guaranteed rate for a Fixed Annuity
option.
OPTION 2. LIFE INCOME WITH PERIOD CERTAIN. We will pay equal monthly
payments for a specified period certain and then for the life of the
Annuitant. If the Annuitant dies during period certain, We will continue to
make payments to the Owner (or any person designated by the Owner) for the
rest of the guaranteed specified period. If the Owner does not want to
receive payments after the Annuitant's death, he/she can ask Us for a lump
sum. A single sum payment will be equal to the present value of remaining
payments as of the date of receipt of proof of death commuted at the
assumed investment rate for a Variable Annuity Option and at a Fixed
Account guaranteed rate for a Fixed Annuity option.
OPTION 3. INCOME OF SPECIFIED AMOUNT. We will pay income of a specified
amount until the principal and interest are exhausted. However, when the
Annuitant dies, if We have made annuity payments for less than the
specified amount, We will continue to make annuity payments to the Owner
for the balance of the specified amount. If the Owner does not want to
receive annuity payments, he or she can ask Us for a single lump sum. A
single sum payment will be equal to the present value of remaining payments
as of the date of receipt of proof of death commuted at the assumed
investment rate for a Variable Annuity Option and at a Fixed Account
guaranteed rate for a Fixed Annuity option.
OPTION 4. JOINT AND SURVIVOR INCOME. We will pay equal monthly payments
during the joint lifetime of the Annuitant and the named Joint Annuitant.
We will determine the payment from Table 4 based on the Age of each person.
The Annuitant must be at least 50 years old, and the Joint Annuitant must
be at least 45 years old, at the time of the first monthly payment.
ANNUITY. If the Owner selects a Fixed Annuity, the Contract Withdrawal Value
will be allocated to the General Account and the Annuity paid as a Fixed
Annuity. If the Owner selects a variable annuity, the Contract Withdrawal Value
will be allocated to the Sub-accounts of the Separate Account in accordance with
the selection made by the Owner, and the annuity will be paid as a variable
annuity. If no selection is made, the Contract Withdrawal Value will be applied
in the same proportions, to the same Sub-accounts, as the allocations are at the
time of election. Unless the Owner specifies otherwise, the payee of the Annuity
Payments shall be the Owner. The Contract Withdrawal Value will be applied to
the applicable annuity table contained in this contract based upon the Annuity
Option selected by the Owner. The amount of the first payment for each $1,000 of
Contract Withdrawal Value is shown in the annuity tables.
FIXED ANNUITY. The Owner may elect to have the Contract Withdrawal Value applied
to provide a Fixed Annuity. The dollar amount of each Fixed Annuity Payment
shall be determined in accordance with Annuity tables contained in contract
which are based on the minimum guaranteed interest rate of 3% per year.
VARIABLE ANNUITY. The Owner may elect to have the Contract Withdrawal Value
applied to provide a variable annuity. Variable Annuity Payments reflect the
investment performance of the Separate Account in accordance with the allocation
of the Contract Withdrawal Value to the Sub-accounts during the Annuity Period.
Variable Annuity Payments are not guaranteed as to dollar amount.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
ANNUITIZATION (CONTINUED)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The dollar amount of the first Variable Annuity Payment is determined in
accordance with the description above. The dollar amount of the variable Annuity
Payment for each applicable Sub-account after the first variable Annuity Payment
is determined as follows:
1. The dollar amount of the first variable Annuity Payment is divided by
the value of an Annuity Unit for each applicable Sub-account as of the
Annuity Date. This sets the number of Annuity Units for each monthly
payment for the applicable Sub-accounts.
2. The fixed number of Annuity Units per payment in each Sub-account is
multiplied by the Annuity Unit value for that Sub-account for the last
Business Day of the month proceeding the month for which the payment
is due. This result is the dollar amount of the payment for each
applicable Sub-account.
The total dollar amount of each variable Annuity Payment is the sum of all
Sub-account variable Annuity Payments reduced by the applicable portion of the
contract maintenance fee.
ANNUITY UNIT. The value of any Annuity Unit for each Sub-account of the Separate
Account was initially set at $10.
The Sub-account Annuity Unit Value for any subsequent Business Day is determined
as follows:
1. The net investment factor for the current Business Day is multiplied by the
value of the Annuity Unit for the Sub-account for the immediately preceding
Business Day.
2. The result in (1) is then divided by the assumed investment rate factor,
which equals 1.00, plus the assumed investment rate for the number of days
since the preceding Business Day. The Owner can choose either a 5% or a 3%
assumed investment rate.
Mortality tables. The Annuity 2000 Mortality Table is used in establishing the
annuity table.
The dollar amount of an Annuity Payment for any age or combination of ages not
shown in the tables, or for any other form of Annuity Option agreed to by the
Company, will be provided by the Company upon request.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
