- any irrevocably named Beneficiary.
ASSIGNMENT - You may assign this contract while the Annuitant is alive and before the Annuity Date. A copy of any assignment must be filed with Our Administrative Office.

If more than one Beneficiary is named, each can be classed as primary or contingent. If two or more persons are named in a class, their shares in the proceeds can be stated.

ALLOCATION OF premium PAYMENTS - Premiums may be allocated to one or more of the Subaccounts of the Variable Account or to the Guaranteed Account. Whole percentages must be used.

Any subsequent Premium received will be allocated in accordance with the most recently received allocation instructions.
CONTRACT CHARGES
All charges and fees shown on the Contract Schedule are the maximum amounts which We may charge. We may, however, charge less than the maximum.
MORTALITY AND EXPENSE RISK CHARGE - We deduct a Mortality And Expense Risk Charge equal, on an annual basis, to the amount shown on the Contract Schedule.

CONTRACT MAINTENANCE CHARGE - We deduct an annual Contract Maintenance Charge
shown on the Contract Schedule. The Contract Maintenance Charge will be deducted from the Contract Value on each Contract Anniversary while this contract is in force. Prior to the Annuity Date, the Contract Maintenance Charge will be deducted from the Contract Value by canceling Accumulation Units. The number of Accumulation Units to be canceled from each applicable Subaccount will be in the ratio that the value of each Subaccount bears to the total Contract Value.
If this contract is surrendered for its full Surrender Value on other than a Contract Anniversary, the full Contract Maintenance Charge due on the next Contract Anniversary will be deducted at the time of surrender.
On and after the Annuity Date, the Contract Maintenance Charge will be pro-rated and collected on a monthly basis. This amount will be subtracted from the monthly annuity payments.
VARIABLE ACCOUNT
GENERAL DESCRIPTION - The name of the Variable Account is shown on the Contract Schedule. The assets of the Variable Account and each Subaccount are Our property, but are not chargeable with the liabilities arising out of any other business We may conduct, except to the extent that Variable Account assets exceed Variable Account liabilities arising under the contracts supported by the Variable Account. The Variable Account and each Subaccount is separate from Our General Account and any other separate account or Subaccount We may have.
INVESTMENT ALLOCATIONS TO THE VARIABLE ACCOUNT - The Variable Account consists of Subaccounts and each Subaccount may invest its assets in a separate class of shares of a designated investment company or companies.
We have the right to change, add or delete designated investment companies. We have the right to add or remove Subaccounts. We also have the right to combine any two or more Subaccounts.
VALUATION OF ASSETS - Assets within each Subaccount will be valued at their net asset value on each Valuation Date.
CONTRACT VALUE - Premiums are allocated among the various Subaccounts within the Variable Account. For each Subaccount, the Premiums are converted into Accumulation Units. The number of Accumulation Units credited to the contract is determined by dividing the Premiums allocated to the Subaccount by the value of the Accumulation Unit for the Subaccount. Surrenders will result in the cancellation of Accumulation Units. The value of the contract is the sum of the values for the contract within each Subaccount and the Guaranteed Account. The value of each Subaccount is determined by multiplying the number of Accumulation Units attributable to the Subaccount by the Accumulation Unit value for the Subaccount, independent of the value of any other Subaccount.
ACCUMULATION UNIT VALUES - The value of an Accumulation Unit will vary in accordance with the investment experience of the underlying portfolio in which the Subaccount invests. The value of an Accumulation Unit is expected to increase or decrease from Valuation Period to Valuation Period. The value of an Accumulation Unit in each Subaccount will change daily to reflect the investment experience of the corresponding underlying portfolio as well as the daily deduction of the Contract Charges. The number of Accumulation Units credited to this contract will not change as a result of any fluctuations in the value of an Accumulation Unit.
GUARANTEED ACCOUNT
GENERAL DESCRIPTION - The Guaranteed Account is a part of Our General Account. The amount You have in the Guaranteed Account at any time is a result of Premiums You have allocated to it or any part of Your Contract Value you have transferred to it.
GUARANTEE PERIODS - The portion of Your Contract Value within the Guaranteed Account is credited with interest at rates guaranteed by Us for the Guarantee Period(s) selected. Interest is credited on a daily basis at the then applicable effective guaranteed interest rate for the applicable Guarantee Period. You may select from one or more Guarantee Periods which we offer at any particular time. We reserve the right at any time to add or delete Guarantee Periods. If You have allocated any part of Your Initial Premium to a Guarantee Period, the amount allocated, as well as the duration of the Guarantee Period is shown on the application.
The guaranteed interest rate applicable to an allocation of Premium or transfer of Contract Value to a Guarantee Period is the rate in effect for that Guarantee Period at the time of the allocation or transfer. If You have allocated or transferred amounts at different times to the Guaranteed Account, each allocation or transfer may have a unique effective guaranteed interest rate associated with that amount. We guarantee that the effective annual rate of interest for the Guaranteed Account, including any of the Guaranteed Periods, will not be less than 3%.
TRANSFERS
During the Accumulation Period, or after the Annuity Date, provided a variable Annuity Option was selected, You may transfer all or part of Your value, in a Subaccount, or allocated to a Guarantee Period of the Guaranteed Account, to another Subaccount or Guarantee Period of the Guaranteed Account. However, after the Annuity Date no transfers may be made between a Subaccount and the Guaranteed Account. The Transfer Fee is shown on the Contract Schedule.
All transfers are subject to the following:
- The deduction of any Transfer Fee that may be imposed will be deducted from the amount which is transferred. However, no Transfer Fee will be imposed on transfers resulting from the expiration of a Guarantee Period.
- If We have not received transfer instructions prior to the end of a Guarantee Period in which You have Contract Value, We will automatically transfer it to a new Guarantee Period of the same duration and under the same restrictions as if You had requested such transfer. However, if a new Guarantee Period of the same duration is not available, then that portion of Your Contract Value will be transferred to the Guarantee Period next shortest in duration.
- The minimum amount which may be transferred is the lesser of (A) $1,000 or (B) Your entire value in the Subaccount or in the amount allocated to a Guarantee Period of the Guaranteed Account.
- No partial transfer will be made if, as a result of such transfer, Your remaining Contract Value in the Subaccount or in the amount allocated to the Guarantee Period of the Guaranteed Account would be less than $1,000.
- Transfers will be effected during the Valuation Period next following receipt by Us of a Written Request containing all required information. However, no transfer may be made effective within seven calendar days of the date on which any annuity payment is due.
- Any transfer request must clearly specify:
- the amount which is to be transferred; and
- the Subaccounts or Guarantee Periods of the Guaranteed Account which are to be affected.
- After the Annuity Date, transfers may not take place between a fixed Annuity Option and a variable Annuity Option.
ANNUITY PROVISIONS
ANNUITY PAYMENTS - Beginning on the Annuity Date, We will make annuity payments to the Annuitant in accordance with the Annuity Option in effect on that date.
Annuity payments will be made on a monthly basis unless such payments would be less than $100 per month. In that event, we reserve the right to amend the frequency of annuity payments to be semi-annual or annual to ensure annuity payments are at least $100 per payment.
CHANGE IN ANNUITY DATE - You may, upon at least thirty (30) days prior Written Request, at any time prior to the Annuity Date, change the Annuity Date shown on the Contract Schedule. The Annuity Date must always be the first day of a calendar month.
Unless We approve otherwise, the new Annuity Date must be at least two years after the Effective Date. The latest Annuity Date is the first day of the first calendar month following the Annuitant's 90th birthday or such earlier date as may be set by applicable law.
SELECTION OF ANNUITY OPTION - If the Annuitant is alive on the Annuity Date, We will apply the Contract Value to provide an income on the basis of a life income with 10 years guaranteed, unless another Annuity Option has been selected. You may however, upon at least thirty (30) days prior Written Request, at any time prior to the Annuity Date, select and/or change the Annuity Option.
ANNUITY OPTIONS
ANNUITY OPTION - The Annuity Option you select may be on a fixed or variable basis, or a combination thereof. We may, at the time of election of an Annuity Option, offer more favorable rates in lieu of those here guaranteed. We may also make available other income options.
OPTION 1 - LIFE INCOME. Annuity payments are paid during the life of an Annuitant ceasing with the last Annuity Payment due prior to the Annuitant's death.
OPTION 2 - LIFE INCOME WITH 10 YEAR GUARANTEE. Annuity payments are paid during the life of an Annuitant, but at least for a 10 year minimum period.
OPTION 3 - JOINT AND LAST SURVIVOR ANNUITY. Annuity payments are paid during the joint lifetime of the Annuitant and a designated second person and are paid thereafter during the remaining lifetime of the survivor, ceasing with the last annuity payment due prior to the survivor's death.
FIXED ANNUITY OPTION
The fixed dollar amount of each fixed annuity payment is determined by multiplying the available Contract Value (after the deduction of any premium taxes, if applicable, not previously deducted) by the factor in the Fixed Annuity Option Table for the option chosen, using the age and sex of the Annuitant and Joint Annuitant, if any, divided by 1,000. The tables are determined from the Annuity 2000 Table projected with Scale G to the year of annuitization, with interest at the
rate of 3.00% per annum.
ANNUITY OPTIONS (Continued)
VARIABLE ANNUITY OPTION
The amount of the first variable annuity payment depends on the Annuity Option elected and the age and sex of the Annuitant. This contract contains a Variable Annuity Options Table indicating the dollar amount of the first monthly payment under each optional annuity form for each $1,000 of value applied. The tables are determined from the Annuity 2000 Table projected with Scale G to the year of annuitization, with interest at the rate of 5.00% per annum.
The 5.00% interest rate assumed in the annuity tables would produce level annuity payments if the net investment rate remained constant at 5.00% per year. Subsequent payments will be less than, equal to, or greater than the first payment depending upon whether the actual net investment rate is less than, equal to, or greater than 5.00%.
The dollar amount of the first variable annuity payment is determined by applying the available value (after deduction of any premium taxes, if applicable, not previously deducted) to the table using the age and sex of the Annuitant and any joint Annuitant. The number of Annuity Units is then determined by dividing this dollar amount by the then current Annuity Unit value. Thereafter, the number of Annuity Units remains unchanged during the period of annuity payments. This determination is made separately for each Subaccount of the Variable Account. The number of Annuity Units is determined for each Subaccount and is based upon the available value in each Subaccount as of the date annuity payments are to begin. The dollar amount determined for each
Subaccount will then be aggregated for purposes
of making payments. The dollar amount of the second and later variable annuity payments is equal to the number of Annuity Units determined for each Subaccount times the Annuity Unit value for that Subaccount as of the due date of the payment. This amount may increase or decrease from month to month. The value of an Annuity Unit for a Subaccount is determined as shown below, by subtracting item 2. from item 1, dividing that result by item 3 and multiplying the result by a factor to neutralize the assumed net investment rate, discussed above, per annum where:
- is the net result of the assets of the Subaccount attributable to the Annuity units,
- plus the cumulative credit; or
- minus the cumulative charge
for taxes reserved, which credit or charge is determined by Us to have resulted from the operation of the Subaccount;
- is the cumulative unpaid amounts for the Mortality and Expense Risk Charge, the Administrative Charge, and for the Distribution Expense Charge, which are shown on the Contract Schedule; and
- is the number of Annuity Units outstanding at the end of the Valuation Period.
The value of an Annuity Unit may increase or decrease from Valuation Period to Valuation Period.
DEATH BENEFIT
DEATH OF THE OWNER - If an Owner dies before the Annuity Date and there is a surviving Joint Owner, a Death Benefit is payable to the surviving Joint Owner. If an Owner dies prior to the Annuity Date and there is no surviving Joint Owner, a Death Benefit is payable to the Beneficiary. Unless the Owner and Joint Owner(if any) have previously designated a payment option, the Beneficiary must elect one of the Death Benefit payment options below. The value of the Death Benefit will be determined as of the date We receive proof of death in a form acceptable to Us. We will pay the Death Benefit equal to the greater of:
- the total of all Premiums reduced for any partial surrenders (and any charges applicable to each such partial surrender) in the same proportion that the Contract Value was reduced on the date of each such partial surrender; or
- the Contract Value.
The surviving Joint Owner or Beneficiary may elect one of the following Death Benefit payment options to be paid as follows:
- payment of the entire Death Benefit within 5 years of the date of the Owner's death; or
- payment over the lifetime of the surviving Joint Owner or designated Beneficiary with distribution beginning within 1 year of the date of death of the Owner (see Annuity Options section of this contract); or
- if the surviving Joint Owner or designated Beneficiary is a spouse of the deceased Owner, he/she can continue this contract in his/her own name.
If no payment option is elected within 60 days of Our receipt of proof of the Owner's death, a single sum settlement will be made at the end of the sixty (60) day period following such receipt. Upon payment of the Death Benefit, this contract will end.
If the Owner is a person other than the Annuitant, and if the Owner's death occurs on or after the Annuity Date, no Death Benefit will be payable under this contract. Any guaranteed payments remaining unpaid will continue to be paid to the Annuitant pursuant to the Annuity Option in force at the date of the Owner's death.
If the Owner is not a person, We will treat the death of the Annuitant before the Annuity Date as the Death of the Owner.
DEATH OF THE ANNUITANT - If the Annuitant is a person other than the Owner and the Owner is an individual, and if the Annuitant dies before the Annuity Date, a new Annuitant may be named by the Owner. If no new Annuitant is named within sixty (60) days of Our receipt of proof of death, the Owner will be the new Annuitant. If the Annuitant dies after the Annuity Date, the remaining payments, if any, will be as specified in the Annuity Option elected. We will require proof of the Annuitant's death. Death benefits, if any, will be paid to the designated Beneficiary at least as rapidly as under the method of distribution in effect at the Annuitant's death.
SURRENDER PROVISIONS
SURRENDER - While this contract is in force and before the Annuity Date, We will, upon Written Request, allow the surrender of all or a portion of this contract for its Surrender Value. Surrenders will result in the cancellation of Accumulation Units from each applicable Subaccount and the Guaranteed Account in the ratio that the value of each Subaccount bears to the total Contract Value. You must specify in writing in advance which units are to be canceled if other than the above described method of cancellation is desired. We will pay the amount of any surrender within seven (7) days of receipt of a request in a form acceptable to us unless the "Delay of Payments" provision is in effect.
The Surrender Value will be the Contract Value as of the date of Our receipt of Your written surrender request, reduced by the sum of:
- any applicable premium taxes not previously deducted; plus
- any applicable Contract Maintenance Charge; plus
- any applicable Surrender Charge.
CALCULATION OF SURRENDER CHARGE - If all or a portion of the Surrender Value is surrendered, a Surrender Charge will be calculated at the time of each surrender and will be deducted from the Contract Value. In calculating the Surrender Charge, Premiums
will be allocated at the time of surrender on a first-in, first-out basis.
The amount of the Surrender Charge is calculated by:
- reducing the amount to be surrendered by the greater of:
- the accumulated earnings of this contract (i.e., the Contract Value minus Premiums which have not been allocated to amounts previously surrendered); or
- 10% of all remaining unsurrendered Premiums, decreased by any surrender made since the last Contract Anniversary; then
- allocating Premiums to the remaining amount to be surrendered; and
- multiplying each such allocated Premium by the applicable Percentage of Premium shown on the Contract Schedule for the period since such Premium was paid; and
- adding the products of each multiplication in (3) above.
For a partial surrender, the Surrender Charge will be deducted from the remaining Contract Value, if sufficient; otherwise it will be deducted from the amount surrendered.
DELAY OF PAYMENTS
DELAY OF PAYMENTS - We will make any payments under this contract within 7 days (or any shorter period, if required by law) of a request received in good order. We reserve the right to suspend or postpone any type of payment from the Variable Account for any period when:
- the New York Stock Exchange is closed for other than customary weekend and holiday closings;
- trading on the Exchange is restricted;
- an emergency exists as a result of which it is not reasonably practicable to dispose of securities held in the Variable Account, or to determine their value; or
- the Securities and Exchange Commission so permits delay for the protection of security holders.
The applicable rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission will govern as to whether the conditions in 2. or 3. exist.
We reserve the right to delay any type of payment from the General Account for up to six (6) months from the date we receive the request for payment.
