SINGLE PREMIUM DEFERRED INDIVIDUAL VARIABLE ANNUITY CONTRACT WITH MINIMUM GUARANTEED WITHDRAWAL BENEFIT In this Contract, “you” or “your” refers to the Owner shown above. “We”, “our”, or “us” refers to ING Life Insurance and Annuity Company. READ YOUR CONTRACT CAREFULLY. This is a legal Contract between you and us. Payments and values under this Contract, when based on the investment experience of the Sub- accounts may increase or decrease, depending on the investment results of the Sub-accounts; they are not guaranteed as to dollar amounts. Provisions regarding the variable nature of this Contract are found in Section 5. RIGHT TO EXAMINE AND RETURN THIS CONTRACT You may return this Contract by mailing or delivering it to our Customer Service Center at the address shown above or to the producer through whom you purchased it within fifteen days (or thirty days if this is a replacement contract as defined by applicable state regulation) after the date you receive it. If so returned, we will promptly pay you the Accumulation Value plus any charges we have deducted which may be more or less than the Premium paid depending on the investment results of the Sub- accounts. If you are unsure whether your Contract is a replacement contract, please contact us at our Customer Service Center at the phone number or address set forth above. [DEFENSE OF MARRIAGE ACT DISCLOSURE Pursuant to federal law (the Defense of Marriage Act of 1996), certain favorable federal tax treatment available to opposite-sex spouses is not available to same-sex spouses. For instance, federal tax law allows a surviving spouse who is designated the beneficiary under an annuity to continue the annuity when the owner dies. This alternative death benefit option is not available to a same-sex spouse beneficiary. If you are a same-sex spouse, we suggest that you consult with a tax advisor prior to purchasing an annuity contract, such as this one, which provides spousal benefits.] |
This Contract is non-participating which means it will not pay dividends resulting from any of the surplus or earnings of ING Life Insurance and Annuity Company. |

3. INTRODUCTION TO THE CONTRACT 3.1 The Contract This Contract and any attached application, amendments, or Endorsements constitute the entire Contract between you and us. The Contract is issued in consideration of the Initial Premium. If the application is attached to the Contract, all statements made by the applicant for the issuance of the Contract shall, in the absence of fraud, be deemed representations and not warranties. Only our president, a vice president or secretary is authorized to amend, change or modify any of the Contract’s terms, provisions or requirements. Any such amendment, change or modification must be in writing. We may amend, change or modify this Contract if required by law, including any amendment, change or modification necessary to continue to qualify such Contract as an annuity contract under applicable law. An Endorsement added to comply with applicable law does not require your consent but is subject to regulatory approval. Any such amendments, changes or modifications will apply uniformly to all contracts that are affected. The provisions of this Contract shall, in all events, be construed to comply with applicable U.S. federal income tax requirements including the requirements of Section 72(s) of the Code. 3.2 The Owner The Owner owns the Contract and is entitled to exercise the rights incident of ownership. You may change the ownership of this Contract at any time prior to the Annuity Commencement Date. Except as noted in Section 6.3 for spousal continuation, ownership may only be changed to a custodian for the benefit of the Annuitant or to the Annuitant. No other changes of ownership will be allowed. To change ownership, you must provide Notice to Us of such change. Unless otherwise specified by the Owner, a change of ownership will take effect as of the date Notice to Us is signed by the Owner, subject to any payments we make or actions we take prior to our receipt of such Notice to Us. You may elect a Joint and Survivor MGWB, in which case, the Annuitant’s spouse (as defined under federal law) will be entitled to MGWB. See Section 6.2. You may name a joint Annuitant on the Annuity Commencement Date, but only if you elect a Joint and Last Survivor Life Payments Annuity Plan. 3.3 The Annuitant The Annuitant must be a natural person. The Annuitant cannot be changed while he or she is living, but see Section 6.3 for details about situations in which the Annuitant’s surviving spouse (as defined under federal law) may become the Annuitant. 3.4 The Beneficiary A Beneficiary’s status may be changed at any time prior to the Annuity Commencement Date unless you designate such Beneficiary as an Irrevocable Beneficiary. An Irrevocable Beneficiary cannot be changed without the consent of the Irrevocable Beneficiary. You may designate one or more classes of Beneficiaries: (i) primary Beneficiaries and (ii) contingent Beneficiaries. The Death Benefit will be paid to the primary Beneficiary. If all the primary Beneficiaries die before the Annuitant, the contingent Beneficiary shall take the place of, and be deemed to be, the primary Beneficiary. If there are multiple Beneficiaries, the Death Benefit shall be paid in equal shares to all primary Beneficiaries unless you provide Notice to Us directing otherwise. In the case of a single life MGWB, if the Annuitant is the Owner and no Beneficiaries are alive or have been designated at the time of the Annuitant’s death, the Annuitant’s estate will be deemed to be the primary Beneficiary. |
ICC12 IL-IA-4030 |

In the case of a Joint and Survivor MGWB, the Annuitant’s spouse will be deemed to be the sole primary Beneficiary notwithstanding any other Beneficiary designation made. In the case of a Joint and Survivor MGWB, if the Annuitant’s spouse is the Owner and no Beneficiaries are alive or have been designated at the time of the Annuitant’s spouse’s death, then the estate of the Annuitant’s spouse will be deemed to be the primary Beneficiary. If the Owner is not a natural person and all Beneficiaries die before the Annuitant (or the Annuitant’s spouse, if applicable), or if no Beneficiary has been designated at the time of the Annuitant’s death (or the Annuitant’s spouse’s death, if applicable), the Owner will be deemed to be the primary Beneficiary. We will deem any Beneficiary to have predeceased the Annuitant, if: (1) Such Beneficiary died at the same time as the Annuitant; (2) Such Beneficiary died within twenty-four hours after the Annuitant’s death; or (3) There is not sufficient evidence to determine that the Beneficiary and Xxxxxxxxx died other than at the same time. To make a Beneficiary change, you must provide Notice to Us. Unless you specify otherwise, such change cancels any existing Beneficiary designations in the same class (primary or contingent) and will take effect as of the date Notice to Us is signed by the Owner, subject to any payments we make or actions we take prior to receipt of such Notice to Us. The rights of any Beneficiary (if a natural person), including an Irrevocable Beneficiary, will end if he or she dies prior to the Annuitant and will pass to any other Beneficiary (which, if a natural person, must then be living) as described in this Section 3.4 unless you provide Notice to Us directing otherwise. |

4. PREMIUMS 4.1 Premiums The Initial Premium for this Contract is required to put this Contract into effect. The amount of the Initial Premium is shown on the first page of this Contract. Additional Premium will not be accepted. 4.2 Premium Allocation You select how to allocate the Premium among the available Sub-account(s). We reserve the right to allocate the Premium received before expiration of the Right to Examine Period to the Specially Designated Sub-account. If we do so, upon expiration of the Right to Examine Period, the Accumulation Value will be allocated proportionately in accordance with your directions. Premium will be allocated as of the earlier of 4 P.M. Eastern Time and close of business on the Business Day such Premium is received by us. Any Premium received by us after the close of regular trading on the New York Stock Exchange will be allocated as of the close of business on the next Business Day. 4.3 Transfers Subject to the limitations set out herein, on any Business Day thirty days or more after the Contract Date and prior to the Annuity Commencement Date, if more than one Sub-account is available, you may transfer the Accumulation Value among such available Sub-accounts. You may also transfer the Accumulation Value among available Sub-accounts on or after the Annuity Commencement Date but only if you are eligible for and elect Payments for Life with Surrender Right and Death Benefit. You may not transfer the Accumulation Value among available Sub-accounts on or after the Annuity Commencement Date under any other Annuity Plan. To make a transfer, you must provide Notice to Us. If you make an Excess Transfer, you may be assessed an Excess Transfer Charge. An Excess Transfer is any transfer after twelve transfers in one Contract Year. Transferred values may be reduced by Excess Transfer Charges. See Section 5.3. Transfers will occur as of the close of business on the Business Day we receive your request. However, any transfer requests received by us after the close of regular trading on the New York Stock Exchange will take effect as of the close of business on the next Business Day. We will monitor transfer activity and will restrict transfers that constitute excessive trading. You may not make more than one purchase and sale of the same Sub-account within a sixty day period or more than five such purchases and sales within any twelve month period. We may modify these restrictions, or the standard as it may apply to a particular Sub-account, will occur after prior notice, depending on, among other factors, the needs of the underlying Investment Portfolio(s) in which the Sub-account(s) invest, the best interest of the contract Owners, and/or state and federal regulatory requirements. If this standard is modified, it will be applied uniformly to all contracts or as applicable, to all contracts investing in the underlying Investment Portfolio. We will notify you of any such modification. 4.4 Investment Portfolio No Longer Available If an Investment Portfolio in which a Sub-account invests is no longer available because it has been substituted by or merged into another Investment Portfolio, we will execute your allocation or transfer instructions using the substitute or proposed replacement Investment Portfolio. The substitute or proposed replacement Investment Portfolio in which the Sub-account invests may have higher fees and charges than the Investment Portfolio it replaces. |

5. CONTRACT VALUE 5.1 The Separate Account The Separate Account is kept separate from our General Account and any other separate accounts we may have. We own the assets in the Separate Account. Assets equal to the reserves and other liabilities of the Separate Account will not be charged with liabilities that arise from any other business we conduct. We may transfer to our General Account assets of the Separate Account that exceed the reserves and other liabilities of the Separate Account. Income along with realized and unrealized gains or losses from assets in the Separate Account are credited to or charged against the Separate Account without regard to other income, gains or losses in our General Account and other separate accounts. Sub-accounts The Separate Account is divided into Sub-accounts, each of which invests in a designated Investment Portfolio that we determine to be suitable for the Contract’s purposes. The Investment Portfolios may be managed by separate investment advisers. Such adviser may be registered under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940. Changes Within the Separate Account We may, from time to time, make additional Sub-accounts available to you. We also have the right to eliminate Sub-accounts, combine two or more Sub-accounts or substitute a new Investment Portfolio for the Investment Portfolio in which a Sub-account invests. A substitution may become necessary if, in our judgment, an Investment Portfolio Sub-account no longer suits the purpose of the Contract. This may happen due to a change in laws or regulations, a change in an Investment Portfolio’s investment objectives or restrictions, because the Investment Portfolio or Sub-account is no longer available for investment or for some other reason. We will obtain any required regulatory approvals before making a substitution. We will send Notice to You in advance of any changes within the Separate Account. Subject to any required regulatory approvals, we reserve the right to transfer assets of the Separate Account or any Sub-account that we determine to be associated with the class of contracts to which this Contract belongs to another separate account or to another sub-account. The Investment Portfolio in which the transferred assets invest through the new separate account or sub-account may have higher fees than the prior Investment Portfolio. When permitted by law, we reserve the right to: (1) Deregister the Separate Account under the Investment Company Act of 1940; (2) Operate the Separate Account as a management company under the Investment Company Act of 1940 if it is operating as a unit investment trust; (3) Operate the Separate Account as a unit investment trust under the Investment Company Act of 1940 if it is operating as a managed separate account; (4) Restrict or eliminate any voting rights of Owners or other persons who have voting rights to the Separate Account; and (5) Combine the Separate Account with other separate accounts. 5.2 The Accumulation Value The Accumulation Value of this Contract is the sum of the Accumulation Values in each of the Sub- accounts. Each Sub-account is valued at the close of each Business Day for the preceding Valuation Period. On the Contract Date, the Accumulation Value in each Sub-account equals the Initial Premium allocated to that Sub-account, less premium tax if applicable. |
ICC12 IL-IA-4030 |
12 |
At the close of each Business Day thereafter, the Accumulation Value in each Sub-account is calculated as follows: (1) We start with the Accumulation Value in the Sub-account at the close of the preceding Business Day. (2) We multiply (1) by the Sub-account’s Net Return Factor, explained below, for the current Valuation Period. (3) We add or subtract transfers to or from that Sub-account during the current Valuation Period. (4) We subtract from (3) any Withdrawals during the current Valuation Period. (5) We subtract from (4) any charges, other than daily charges, or applicable taxes including any premium taxes not previously deducted, allocated to that Sub-account for any deductions from Accumulation Value as shown in the Contract Schedule. Sub-account’s Net Return Factor The Net Return Factor for each Sub-account is calculated as follows: (1) We take the net asset value of the Investment Portfolio in which the Sub-account invests at the close of the current Business Day. (2) We add to (1) the amount of any dividend or capital gains distribution declared for the Investment Portfolio and reinvested in such Investment Portfolio during the current Valuation Period. (3) We divide (2) by the net asset value of the Investment Portfolio at the close of the preceding Business Day. (4) We subtract the daily mortality & expense risk charge set forth in the Contract Schedule for each Sub- account for each day in the current Valuation Period. Calculations for Sub-accounts investing in unit investment trusts are on a per unit basis. 5.3 Charges and Expenses Minimum Guaranteed Withdrawal Benefit Charge (“MGWB Charge”) The MGWB Charge is calculated daily but deducted on each quarterly Contract Anniversary from the Accumulation Value in the Sub-accounts, in the same proportion that the total Accumulation Value in each Sub-account bears to the total Accumulation Value in your Contract. The MGWB Charge is equal to the MGWB Base as of the previous Business Day multiplied by the MGWB Charge Rate shown in the Contract Schedule. The MGWB Charge will continue to be assessed for as long as the Minimum Guaranteed Withdrawal Benefit is in effect, unless the Accumulation Value is reduced to zero. If the Contract is terminated due to the Surrender, cancellation or application of the Accumulation Value to an Annuity Plan other than the Payments for Life with Surrender Right and Death Benefit Annuity Plan, the MGWB Charge for that portion of the current quarter completed will be deducted from the Accumulation Value prior to termination of the Contract. Annual Administrative Charge We may assess an annual administrative charge to cover a portion of our ongoing administrative expenses. The charge is deducted from the Accumulation Value in each Sub-account (1) on each Contract Anniversary prior to the Annuity Commencement Date, (2) on each Contract Anniversary on or following the Annuity Commencement Date if you elect the Payments for Life with Surrender Right and Death Benefit Annuity Plan, (3) on the Annuity Commencement Date or (4) at Surrender, each such deduction in the same proportion that the Accumulation Value in that Sub-account bears to the total Accumulation Value in all Sub-accounts on that date. If the Contract Anniversary, Annuity Commencement Date or Surrender falls on a non-business day, the charge is calculated at the close of business on the next Business Day. We may, at any time, charge less but will never charge more than the annual administrative charge shown in the Contract Schedule. At the time of deduction, this charge will be waived if the Accumulation Value or the Premium received is at least equal to the amounts shown in the Contract Schedule. At our discretion, we may reduce, but not increase the amounts shown in the Contract Schedule for waiving the annual administrative charge. |
ICC12 IL-IA-4030 |
13 |
Excess Transfer Charge We may assess an Excess Transfer Charge for each Excess Transfer, which are all transfers after the first twelve in a Contract Year. Any Excess Transfer Charge will be deducted from the Accumulation Value in the Sub-account(s) from which an Excess Transfer is made. The transfer of Accumulation Value from any Sub-account is deemed to be one transfer regardless of the number of Sub-accounts into which the value is transferred. We may, at any time, charge less but will never charge more than the Excess Transfer Charge shown in the Contract Schedule. Mortality & Expense Risk Charge We assess a mortality & expense risk charge (“M & E charge”) against each Sub-account on a daily basis. We may, at any time, charge less but will never charge more than the daily M & E charge shown in the Contract Schedule. Premium Tax We may deduct from the Accumulation Value the amount of any premium tax or other state and local taxes levied by any state or local government entity when: (1) Such premium tax is incurred by us; or (2) The Accumulation Value is applied to an Annuity Plan on the Annuity Commencement Date as described in Section 6.4. We have the right to change the amount we charge for any premium tax to conform to changes in the applicable law or if you change your state of residence. Unless you direct otherwise, any premium taxes will be deducted from all Sub-accounts on a pro rata basis. Other Taxes We do not expect any U.S. federal income tax liability attributable to the Separate Account. However, changes in federal laws, Treasury regulations and/or their interpretation thereof may result in our being taxed on income or gains attributable to the Separate Account. In this case, a charge may be deducted from the Separate Account to provide for the payment of such taxes. |

6. CONTRACT BENEFITS 6.1 Contract Surrender At any time prior to the Annuity Commencement Date, you may Surrender this Contract for its Cash Surrender Value. You may also Surrender this Contract for its Cash Surrender Value on or after the Annuity Commencement Date but only if you elected Payments for Life with Surrender Right and Death Benefit. You may not Surrender this Contract for a Cash Surrender Value on or after the Annuity Commencement Date under any other Annuity Plan. To Surrender this Contract for its Cash Surrender Value, you must provide Notice to Us. If we receive your Notice to Us before the close of business on any Business Day, the Cash Surrender Value will be determined at the close of business on such Business Day; otherwise, the Cash Surrender Value will be determined as of the close of the next Business Day. We may require that this Contract be returned to us before we pay you the Cash Surrender Value. If you have lost the Contract, we may require that you complete and return to our Customer Service Center a lost contract form. Upon payment of the Cash Surrender Value, this Contract will terminate and cease to have any further value. To calculate the Cash Surrender Value, we start with the Accumulation Value at the time of Surrender. We subtract any charges that have been incurred but not deducted, including but not limited to, any annual administrative charges and the pro rata portion of any MGWB Charges. 6.2 Withdrawals At any time prior to the Annuity Commencement Date, you may withdraw a portion of the Accumulation Value, subject to the terms and conditions stated below, by providing Notice to Us. If we receive your Notice to Us before the close of business on any Business Day, the Withdrawal will be taken at the close of business on such Business Day; otherwise, the Withdrawal will be taken as of the close of the next Business Day. Unless you direct otherwise, Withdrawals will be withdrawn from all Sub-accounts on a pro rata basis. Any Excess Withdrawal will be deemed to be a full Surrender and the Cash Surrender Value will be paid if, at the time of the Withdrawal, the Contract Date is more than 24 months in the past and the remaining Cash Surrender Value as of the close of that Business Day is less than $2,500. The minimum amount that may be withdrawn at any one time is the lesser of $1,000 or the Maximum Annual Withdrawal amount. The Minimum Guaranteed Withdrawal Benefit (MGWB) The Minimum Guaranteed Withdrawal Benefit is effective as of the Contract Date and guarantees that a pre-determined amount, the MAW, may be withdrawn from the Contract annually after the Annuitant reaches the Lifetime Withdrawal Eligibility Age regardless of market performance and even if the Accumulation Value is zero (other than by an Excess Withdrawal or Surrender), until the date of the Annuitant’s death (and the Annuitant’s spouse’s death in the case of a Joint and Survivor MGWB) or the MGWB is otherwise terminated. MGWB Base The initial MGWB Base on the Contract Date is shown in the Contract Schedule and is based on the Owner’s MGWB Base under the retirement plan annuity contract rolled into this Contract. Thereafter, the MGWB Base will increase as a result of any Ratchets as described below, and may decrease due to Withdrawal adjustments. Ratchets A Ratchet is an increase to the MGWB Base equal to the amount by which the Accumulation Value on the applicable Ratchet Date is greater than the MGWB Base on such Ratchet Date. On each Ratchet Date following the Contract Date, if the current Accumulation Value is greater than the current MGWB Base, the MGWB Base will be set equal to the current Accumulation Value. If the Accumulation Value on the applicable Ratchet Date is equal to or less than the MGWB Base on such Ratchet Date, no Ratchet occurs. Ratchet Dates are shown in the Contract Schedule. If a Ratchet Date falls on a non-Business Day, the determination of whether a Ratchet occurs will take place on the next Business Day using the Accumulation Value as of the close of that day. |

Lifetime Withdrawal Phase The Lifetime Withdrawal Phase is the period under the Minimum Guaranteed Withdrawal Benefit during which the Maximum Annual Withdrawal is calculated and is available for withdrawal. The Contract will enter the Lifetime Withdrawal Phase of the Minimum Guaranteed Withdrawal Benefit on the date of the first Withdrawal on or following the date the Annuitant reaches the Lifetime Withdrawal Eligibility Age as shown in the Contract Schedule. The Contract will remain in the Lifetime Withdrawal Phase until the earlier of: (1) The date the Contract is Surrendered or otherwise terminated, at which time the Minimum Guaranteed Withdrawal Benefit also is terminated; (2) The Annuitant’s death in the case of single life MGWB, or the later of the date of the Annuitant’s death and the Annuitant’s spouse’s death in the case of a Joint and Survivor MGWB, at which time the Minimum Guaranteed Withdrawal Benefit will terminate and no further Minimum Guaranteed Withdrawal Benefits will be payable (see Section 6.3 for details about spousal continuation); (3) The Contract’s Annuity Commencement Date unless you elect the Payments for Life with Surrender Right and Death Benefit Annuity Plan; (4) The date the Accumulation Value is reduced to zero by an Excess Withdrawal, at which time the Minimum Guaranteed Withdrawal Benefit will terminate and no further Minimum Guaranteed Withdrawal Benefits will be payable; and (5) The date the Contract enters the Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status. Maximum Annual Withdrawal (MAW) Calculation On the day the Contract enters the Lifetime Withdrawal Phase or on any other date the MGWB Base is recalculated, the Maximum Annual Withdrawal (MAW) will be set equal to: (1) The MAW percentage, as shown in the Contract Schedule, which is based on the MAW Percentage under the retirement plan annuity contract rolled into this Contract; multiplied by (2) The MGWB Base, after any calculations occurring on that day that would result in a change to the MGWB Base. The MAW is subject to downward or upward adjustment when the Lifetime Withdrawal Phase is elected at an age that is earlier or later than the Assumed Lifetime Withdrawal Commencement Age as shown in the Contract Schedule. The adjustment factors for early and for deferred Lifetime Withdrawal Commencements are shown in the Contract Schedule. If the Annuitant was receiving MAW payments under the retirement plan annuity contract at the time that the Annuitant rolled their interest in that contract into this Contract, then the first Contract Year MAW payments under this Contract will be adjusted to take into account the MAW payments received during the withdrawal year prior to the rollover. The amount of the first Contract Year MAW payments under this Contract in this circumstance will equal the sum of MAW payments remaining for the withdrawal year under the retirement plan annuity contract at the time of the rollover, plus the pro-rata portion of the full MAW amount for the first Contract Year under this Contract. The pro-rata portion will be based on the period of time from the end of the withdrawal year under the retirement plan annuity contract at the time of amounts are rolled into this Contract and the first Contract Anniversary under this Contract. The MAW amount will be paid in monthly installments unless some other frequency of payment is requested and agreed to by us, and the frequency of MAW installments within a Contract Year may be changed subject to our approval. If a MAW installment is less than $100, we reserve the right to adjust the frequency so that the installment will be at least $100. Joint and Survivor MGWB In the case of a Joint and Survivor MGWB, the MAW is subject to further downward adjustment by the Joint and Survivor Equivalency Factors shown in the Joint and Survivor MGWB Option Data Table in the Contract Schedule. The ages of the Annuitant and the Annuitant’s spouse at the time the Contract enters the Lifetime Withdrawal Phase will be used when making this adjustment. If the Annuitant or the Annuitant’s spouse is not alive when the Contract enters the Lifetime Withdrawal Phase, we will use the age that the Annuitant or Xxxxxxxxx’s spouse, as applicable, would have been had he or she still been living when making this adjustment. If the Annuitant dies before he or she attains the Lifetime Withdrawal Eligibility Age, the Contact will not enter the Lifetime Withdrawal Phase and the Annuitant’s spouse will not be eligible to receive MAW payments until such time as the Annuitant would have reached the Lifetime Withdrawal Eligibility Age had he or she remained alive. |

Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status The Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status is the period during which periodic payments, called MGWB Periodic Payments, will be paid to you. If the Accumulation Value is reduced to zero (other than by an Excess Withdrawal or Surrender), the Contract will enter the Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status on the date of the first MGWB Periodic Payment. The MGWB Periodic Payment is an annual amount equal to the MAW. MGWB Periodic Payments will begin on the Contract Anniversary following the later of the date the Accumulation Value is reduced to zero (other than by an Excess Withdrawal or Surrender) and the date the Annuitant reaches the Lifetime Withdrawal Eligibility Age. At the time the Accumulation Value is reduced to zero (other than by an Excess Withdrawal or Surrender), if the MAW exceeds the Withdrawals for that Contract Year, including the Withdrawal that reduced the Accumulation Value to zero, a payment will be paid immediately to the Owner equal to the excess of the MAW over such Withdrawals. Thereafter, MGWB Periodic Payments will be payable on Contract Anniversaries as described above. When the Contract enters the Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status, the Contract is modified so that the Contract will provide no further benefits other than as provided in connection with the Minimum Guaranteed Withdrawal Benefit. While in the Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status, MGWB Periodic Payments will continue to be paid until the Annuitant’s death or, in the case of Joint and Survivor MGWB, the later of the date of the Annuitant’s death and the death of the Annuitant’s spouse. The MGWB Periodic payment will be paid in annual installments unless some other frequency of payment is requested and agreed to by us, and the frequency of installments within a Contract Year may be changed subject to our approval. If a MGWB Periodic Payment installment is less than $100, we reserve the right to adjust the frequency so that the installment will be at least $100. After the Contract enters the Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status, the Contract including the Minimum Guaranteed Withdrawal Benefit will terminate when the Annuitant dies in the case of single life MGWB, or the later of the date of the Annuitant’s death and the Annuitant’s spouse’s death in the case of a Joint and Survivor MGWB,. If MGWB Periodic Payments are disbursed after the Annuitant’s and Xxxxxxxxx’s spouse’s date(s) of death, if applicable, but before we are notified of such death(s), the Owner or, if applicable, the Owner’s estate is obligated to return such MGWB Periodic Payments. Withdrawal Adjustments to MGWB Base The amount of any Withdrawal adjustments will be calculated as follows: (1) For any Excess Withdrawals requested, the Withdrawal adjustment to the MGWB Base will be applied on a pro rata basis as described below; and (2) Any Withdrawals that are not Excess Withdrawals requested while the Contract is in the Lifetime Withdrawal Phase will have no impact to the MGWB Base. Excess Withdrawals On the date that any Excess Withdrawal occurs, an immediate pro rata reduction will be applied to the MGWB Base. The proportion of any such pro rata reduction will equal: |
A |
{B – (C – A)} |
Where: A is the amount of the Excess Withdrawal; B is the Accumulation Value immediately prior to the Withdrawal; and C is the total amount of the current Withdrawal. This means the MGWB Base is reduced by the same percentage that the Accumulation Value is reduced by the Excess Withdrawal. Excess Withdrawals can reduce future benefits by more than the dollar amount of the Excess Withdrawal. |

Change of Owner Only the following ownership changes are allowed: (1) A change of ownership pursuant to spousal continuation as set forth in the Section 6.3 below; (2) A change of ownership from one custodian to another custodian for the benefit of the Annuitant; (3) A change of ownership from a custodian for the benefit of the Annuitant to the Annuitant; (4) A change of ownership from the Annuitant to a custodian for the benefit of the Annuitant; (5) Collateral assignments; and (6) A change of ownership executed pursuant to a court order. Minimum Guaranteed Withdrawal Benefit Termination The Minimum Guaranteed Withdrawal Benefit may not be cancelled unless the Contract is Surrendered or terminated or upon election of certain annuity payment options. Termination of the MGWB will also terminate the MGWB Charge. The Minimum Guaranteed Withdrawal Benefit has no Surrender value or other non-forfeiture benefits upon termination. 6.3 The Death Benefit The Death Benefit is payable to the Beneficiary as determined under Section 3.4 if the Annuitant dies (1) before the Annuity Commencement Date and before the Contract enters the Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status or (2) while the Payments for Life with Surrender Right and Death Benefit Annuity Plan is in effect and before the Contract enters Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status. Only one Death Benefit is payable under this Contract. If there are multiple Beneficiaries, the Death Benefit will be paid in equal shares to all primary Beneficiaries unless you previously provided Notice to Us directing otherwise. The Death Benefit will be the Accumulation Value and will be determined as of the date we receive Proof of Death. If we receive Proof of Death and all required claim forms on the same date, the Death Benefit will be paid on that date. This paragraph applies if the Payments for Life with Surrender Right and Death Benefit Annuity Plan is not in effect at the time the Death Benefit becomes payable. If the Death Benefit becomes payable, it may be received in a single lump sum or applied to any Annuity Plan described in Section 6.4 except the Payments for Life with Surrender Right and Death Benefit Annuity Plan, subject to the requirements of and time limits prescribed by Section 72(s) of the Code and the provisions of this Section 6.3 relating to spousal Beneficiaries and non-spousal Beneficiaries. If the Death Benefit is applied to an Annuity Plan, the Beneficiary is deemed to be the Annuitant. If the Payments for Life with Surrender Right and Death Benefit Annuity Plan is in effect at the time the Death Benefit becomes payable, you may receive the Death Benefit as described under that Annuity Plan in Section 6.4. Except in the case of spousal continuation where a Joint and Survivor MGWB has been elected, the death of the Annuitant will terminate the Minimum Guaranteed Withdrawal Benefit and, upon payment of the Death Benefit, the Contract. In the case of spousal continuation where a Joint and Survivor MGWB has been elected, the death of both the Annuitant and the Annuitant’s spouse, will terminate the Minimum Guaranteed Withdrawal Benefit and, upon payment of the Death Benefit, the Contract. Upon Proof of Death, any charges for the Minimum Guaranteed Withdrawal Benefit which are due but unpaid for any period of time the Minimum Guaranteed Withdrawal Benefit was active and in force prior to the date of death will be deducted or any charges for the Minimum Guaranteed Withdrawal Benefit that have been deducted for any period of time after the date of death will be refunded. If the Contract is in the Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status at the time of the Annuitant’s death, or in the case of a Joint and Survivor MGWB the later of the Annuitant’s or the Annuitant’s spouse’s death, the Minimum Guaranteed Withdrawal Benefit and the Contract will terminate. |

Spousal Beneficiaries - Continuation In the case of a single life MGWB, if the Annuitant’s death occurs before the Annuity Commencement Date and the Contract is not in Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status and the sole primary Beneficiary is the deceased Annuitant’s “spouse” (as defined by federal law), upon Notice to Us from your surviving spouse, in lieu of receiving the Death Benefit, the Contract may be continued with the surviving spouse as the new Owner, pursuant to Section 72(s) of the Code and the following will apply: (1) The surviving spouse will become the Annuitant; (2) The age of the surviving spouse will be used as the Owner’s age under the continued Contract; (3) The MGWB will terminate and may not be continued; and (4) At the subsequent death of the new Owner/Annuitant (i.e., the surviving spouse), the Death Benefit must be distributed as required for non-spousal Beneficiaries as stated below, after which, the continued Contract will terminate. In the case of a Joint and Survivor MGWB, if the Annuitant’s death occurs before the Annuity Commencement Date and the sole primary Beneficiary is the deceased Annuitant’s “spouse” (as defined by federal law), upon Notice to Us from the deceased Annuitant’s surviving spouse, in lieu of receiving the Death Benefit, the Contract may be continued with the surviving spouse as the new Owner, pursuant to Section 72(s) of the Code and the following will apply: (1) The surviving spouse will become the Annuitant; (2) Eligibility to enter the Lifetime Withdrawal Phase will be continue to be based on the deceased Annuitant’s age (as if he or she were still living); (3) The applicable MAW Percentage, as shown in the Contract Schedule, will be adjusted based on the deceased Annuitant’s age (as if he or she were still living) and continuing spouse’s age at the time the Lifetime Withdrawal Phase begins following continuation; (4) MGWB Charges will resume upon the first quarterly Contract Anniversary following continuation and will be deducted starting on the second quarterly Contract Anniversary; (5) On the day the Contract is continued, the MGWB Base will be set equal to the MGWB Base existing at the time of the deceased Xxxxxxxxx’s death, reduced pro rata for any Withdrawals taken since the deceased Xxxxxxxxx’s death; (6) Any Withdrawals taken in the Contract Year in which the Contract is continued will be included in determining whether any Excess Withdrawals have been taken in that Contract Year as well as used in calculating any pro rata reductions of the MGWB Base as described in the Section 6.2; and (7) Calculation of the MGWB Base will resume as stated in the Section 6.2. If the deceased Xxxxxxxxx’s spouse does not choose to continue the Contract, the Minimum Guaranteed Withdrawal Benefit will terminate and the Death Benefit will be distributed as stated below for non-spousal Beneficiaries. If the deceased Xxxxxxxxx’s spouse has attained age 90 on the date of the Annuitant’s death, the deceased Xxxxxxxxx’s spouse may not choose to continue the Contract and the Death Benefit will be distributed as stated below for non-spousal Beneficiaries. Non-spousal Beneficiaries If death occurs before the Annuity Commencement Date and the Contract is not in the Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status and the deceased Annuitant’s spouse is not a primary Beneficiary, the primary Beneficiary will become the Annuitant, the Death Benefit will be payable to the Beneficiary, and the following will apply: (1) The MGWB will terminate; and (2) The remaining interest in the Contract must be distributed to the Beneficiary: (a) Within five years of the primary Beneficiary’s death; or (b) Beginning within one year after the primary Beneficiary’s death: (i) Over the life of the Beneficiary or (ii) Over a period not greater than the Beneficiary’s life expectancy. If any Beneficiary dies before all Death Benefit payments have been distributed, any remaining distributions will be paid to such Beneficiary’s estate or as otherwise directed by the Beneficiary in a Notice to Us. |

How to Claim the Death Benefit We shall pay the Death Benefit upon our receipt of Proof of Death and all required claim forms. The claimant should contact our Customer Service Center at the address or phone number on the first page of this Contract for further instructions. 6.4 Annuity Payments If the Accumulation Value is less than $2,000 or if payments would be less than $20 a month on the Annuity Commencement Date as shown on the first page of this Contract, we will pay you or, subject to our consent in the event the payee is not a natural person, a payee designated by you, such Accumulation Value in one lump sum payment as directed by you and this Contract will have no further value. If the Accumulation Value is equal to or greater than $2,000 on the Annuity Commencement Date as shown on the first page of this Contract or as later changed as provided below and the Annuitant is living on the Annuity Commencement Date, we will begin making Annuity Payments as described below. Upon application of the Accumulation Value to an Annuity Plan, unless you are eligible for and elect the Payments for Life with Surrender Right and Death Benefit Annuity Plan, this Contract will cease to have any further value other than that provided under the Annuity Plan you elected and will terminate when Annuity Payments cease under the Annuity Plan. We will make Annuity Payments beginning on the Annuity Commencement Date, on a monthly basis unless you deliver Notice to Us directing us to pay at a different frequency. However, requests for periodic payments other than monthly, quarterly, semi-annually or annually require our consent. You may not change the payment frequency after Annuity Payments begin. If the day an Annuity Payment is scheduled to be paid is not a Business Day, for instance, a weekend, or does not exist in any month in which an Annuity Payment is due, for instance a month that does not contain twenty-nine, thirty, or thirty-one days, such Annuity Payment will be paid on the next Business Day. The amount applied to an Annuity Plan will be the Accumulation Value calculated as set forth in Section 5.2, less any applicable premium tax. The Annuity Payment amount will be determined by the amount applied to the Annuity Plan you have elected. We may apply a minimum first Annuity Payment amount as set forth in the Contract Schedule. We have the right to change the minimums stated in the Contract Schedule, if allowed by law, based upon increases reflected in the Consumer Price Index for All Urban Consumers (CPI-U) since January 1, 2013. Selecting an Annuity Commencement Date You select the Annuity Commencement Date. The Annuity Commencement Date may be any date following the first Contract Anniversary but not later than January first on or next following the Annuitant’s 90th birthday, unless we agree to a later date. You may select an Annuity Commencement Date by providing Notice to Us at least thirty days in advance of the date you select. If you do not select an Annuity Commencement Date, the Annuity Commencement Date will be January first on or next following the Annuitant’s 90th birthday. Lifetime Income Annuity Option On the Annuity Commencement Date if the Minimum Guaranteed Withdrawal Benefit is in effect and you choose the Life Only Payments Annuity Plan (in the case of a single life MGWB) or the Joint and Last Survivor Life Payments Annuity Plan (in the case of a Joint and Survivor MGWB), each which is described below, we will pay the greater of the Annuity Payments or annual payments equal to the MAW. If you choose any other Annuity Plan, with the exception of the Payments for Life with Surrender Right and Death Benefit Annuity Plan described below, we will begin Annuity Payments on the Annuity Commencement Date and no payments under the Minimum Guaranteed Withdrawal Benefit will be payable thereafter. |

Electing an Annuity Plan You may elect any of the Annuity Plans described below. In addition, you may elect any other Annuity Plan we may be offering thirty days prior to the Annuity Commencement Date, the latest date by which you must provide your election. You may change the Annuity Plan you have elected at any time before the Annuity Commencement Date by providing at least thirty days prior Notice to Us. Upon request, we will send you the proper forms to elect or change the Annuity Plan. The elected Annuity Plan will become effective when we receive satisfactorily completed forms indicating your election. Once Annuity Payments begin, the Annuity Plan may not be changed. If you select an Annuity Commencement Date that is earlier than the latest Annuity Commencement Date permitted under the Contract but you do not elect an Annuity Plan by the Annuity Commencement Date, payments, calculated based on the Annuitant’s life, will be made to you or a payee designated by you automatically each month for a minimum of 120 months and as long thereafter as the Annuitant lives unless otherwise limited by applicable law. If the Annuity Commencement Date is the latest date permitted under the Contract and you have not elected an Annuity Plan, Annuity Payments will begin under the Payments for Life with Surrender Right and Death Benefit Annuity Plan. Your election of the Annuity Plan is subject to the following additional terms and conditions: (1) If you do not direct otherwise, Annuity Payments will be paid to you; (2) Our consent is necessary if the payee is not a natural person; and (3) Any change in payee will take effect as of the date we receive Notice to Us. If any Annuitant or payee dies on or after the Annuity Commencement Date but before all Annuity Payments have been paid, we will pay the primary Beneficiary the remaining value of any such Annuity Payments at least as rapidly as under the Annuity Plan that is in effect at the time of death. The Annuity Payments received under an Annuity Plan through this Contract will not be less than the payments that would be provided from the application of the Cash Surrender Value to a single premium immediate annuity under the same Annuity Plan offered by us on the Annuity Commencement Date. The Annuity Plans (1) Payments for a Period Certain - Annuity Payments are paid in equal installments for a fixed number of years as shown in Table A below. The number of years cannot be less than ten or, subject to any limitations under applicable law, more than thirty. (2) Payments for Life with Period Certain - Annuity Payments are paid for a fixed number of years and as long thereafter as the Annuitant is living as shown in Table B below. However, the number of years cannot be less than ten or more than thirty unless otherwise required by applicable law. (3) Life Only Payments - Annuity Payments are paid for as long as the Annuitant is living as shown in Table B below. (4) Joint and Last Survivor Life Payments - Annuity Payments are paid for as long as either of two Annuitants is living as shown in Table C below. (5) Payments for Life with Surrender Right and Death Benefit - If Annuity Payments have not commenced by the latest Annuity Commencement Date permitted under the Contract, you may elect, in lieu of any other Annuity Plan, Annuity Payments that will begin on or about January 25th following the Annuity Commencement Date and be paid for as long as the Annuitant is living. Annuity Payments under this Annuity Plan will equal, on an annual calendar year basis after the Annuity Commencement Date, the greater of: (a) The MAW; and (b) The Accumulation Value as of the end of the prior calendar year, determined as if the Contract had not been annuitized, divided by the life expectancy of the Annuitant, based on the Annuitant’s age, as determined under the Single Life Table under Treasury Regulation Section 1.401(a)(9)-9 as shown in Table D. Under this option, the Accumulation Value will remain allocated among the available Sub-accounts as you direct. The Owner may Surrender the Contract at any time but Withdrawals or a subsequent election of a different Annuity Plan will not be permitted. |

Upon the death of the Annuitant, if the Contract is not in Lifetime Automatic Periodic Benefit Status the Beneficiary will be entitled to receive the Death Benefit, as described in Section 6.3, according to one of the following: (a) In a lump sum on or before the end of the calendar year in which the Annuitant’s death occurs; or (b) Periodic payments, in the same frequency and at least as rapidly as under this Annuity Plan at the time of death, equal to, on an annual basis as determined as of the end of the prior year immediately preceding the Contract Year in which the payments will be made, the Accumulation Value divided by the remaining life expectancy of the Annuitant at the time of death (or the life expectancy of the Beneficiary at the time of the Annuitant’s death if shorter) as determined under the Single Life Table under Treasury Regulation Section 1.401(a)(9)-9. On each December 31st following the first periodic payment under this distribution option, the periodic payment will be calculated using the remaining Accumulation Value and the life expectancy factor used in calculating the prior payment to the Beneficiary reduced by one. To calculate the guaranteed payments for a fixed Annuity Plan, we will use the Annuitant's adjusted age and, if applicable, the second Annuitant's adjusted age. The Annuitant's adjusted age and, if applicable, the second Annuitant's adjusted age is the person's age as of the birthday closest to the day Annuity Payments begin, reduced as follows: (1) Reduced by one year for payments beginning before January 1, 2014; (2) Reduced by two years for payments beginning during the period from January 1, 2014 through December 31, 2023; and (3) Starting on January 1, 2024, reduced by one additional year for payments beginning in each succeeding ten year period. Annuity Plan Tables Tables A, B, and C show the minimum monthly payments for each $1,000 applied under the Annuity Plan, assuming fixed payments with a net investment return of 1.0%, using the Annuity 2000 Mortality Tables. We may pay a higher rate at our discretion. In Tables B and C, the amount of each payment will depend on the Annuitant’s sex and age, as determined by the nearest birthday, at the Annuity Commencement Date. Annuity Payments made on a basis other than monthly and for ages or number of years not shown will be calculated on the same basis as those shown and may be obtained from us by contacting our Customer Service Center at the address or phone number set forth on the first page of the Contract. Table D contains the life expectancy factors to be applied to the Annuitant Payments for Life with Surrender Right and Death Benefit Annuity Plan. |

We are not responsible for the validity, or other effects, of an assignment. 7.3 Misstatement Made by Owner in Connection with the Purchase of this Contract We may require proof of the age and/or sex of any person upon whose life the MGWB, Death Benefit or Annuity Payments are determined.

We will include in the next payment any underpayments due to such misstatement with interest credited at a rate not to exceed 6% annually. We will deduct any overpayments, plus interest at a rate we may charge, but not to exceed 6% annually, from future payments until the overpayment has been repaid in full. 7.4 Payments We May Defer We may not be able to determine the value of the assets in the Sub-accounts when: (1) The New York Stock Exchange is closed for trading; or (2) An emergency exists as determined by the SEC so that the sale of securities held in the Separate Account may not reasonably occur or so that we may not reasonably determine the value of the Separate Account’s net assets.
