On the Contract Date, the Guaranteed Death Benefit Base for non-Special Funds is the initial premium allocated to non-Special Funds. On subsequent Valuation Dates, the Guaranteed Death Benefit Base for non-Special Funds is calculated as follows:
(1) |
Start with the Guaranteed Death Benefit Base for non-Special Funds from the prior Valuation Date. |
(2) |
Add any additional premiums paid and allocated to non-Special Funds during the current Valuation Period to (1). |
(3) |
Adjust (2) for any transfers to or from Special Funds during the current Valuation Period. |
(4) |
Subtract from (3) any Prorata Partial Withdrawal Adjustments for any Partial Withdrawal made from non-Special Funds during the current Valuation Period. |
The Guaranteed Death Benefit Base for Special Funds has a corresponding definition, but with respect to amounts allocated to Special Funds.
Transfers from Special Funds to non-Special Funds will reduce the Guaranteed Death Benefit Base for Special Funds on a prorata basis. The resulting increase in the Guaranteed Death Benefit Base for non-Special Funds will equal the lesser of the reduction in the Guaranteed Death Benefit Base for Special Funds and the net Accumulation Value transferred.
Transfers from non-Special Funds to Special Funds will reduce the Guaranteed Death Benefit Base for non-Special Funds on a prorata basis. The resulting increase in the Guaranteed Death Benefit Base for Special Funds will equal the reduction in Guaranteed Death Benefit Base for non-Special Funds.

SPECIAL FUNDS
Where used in this Contract, Special Funds are [the Liquid Asset Division, the Limited Maturity Bond Division, the Fixed Allocations and the Guaranteed Interest Division]. We may add newly available Divisions as Special Funds. We may also reclassify an existing Division as a Special Fund or remove such designation upon 30 days notice to you. Such reclassification will apply to amounts transferred or otherwise added to such Division after the date of

change. We may reduce the Mortality and Expense Risk Charge (if applicable) for that portion of the Contract invested in a Special Fund.
PRORATA PARTIAL WITHDRAWAL ADJUSTMENTS
For any partial withdrawal, the Death Benefit components will be reduced by Prorata Partial Withdrawal Adjustments. The Prorata Partial Withdrawal Adjustment to a Death Benefit component for a partial withdrawal is equal to (1) divided by (2) multiplied by (3), where: (1) is the Accumulation Value withdrawn; (2) is the Accumulation Value immediately prior to withdrawal; and (3) is the amount of the applicable Death Benefit component immediately prior to the withdrawal. Separate adjustments will apply to amounts in the Special and non-Special Funds.
CHANGE OF OWNER
A change of Owner will result in recalculation of the Death Benefit and the Guaranteed Death Benefit. If the Owner's or the oldest of multiple Owner's Attained Age at the time of the change is less than [86], the Guaranteed Death Benefit in effect prior to the change will remain in effect and the Death Benefit provision shall apply.
If any Owner's or oldest multiple Owner's Attained Age is [86] or greater at the time of the change, the Guaranteed Death Benefit will be zero, and the Death Benefit will then be the Cash Surrender Value.

If at the Owner's death, the surviving spouse of the deceased Owner is the Beneficiary and such surviving spouse elects to continue the Contract as their own pursuant to Internal Revenue Code Section 72(s) or the equivalent provisions of U.S. Treasury Department rules for qualified plans, the following will apply:
(a) |
If the Guaranteed Death Benefit as of the date we receive due proof of death of the Owner, minus the Accumulation Value, also as of that date, is greater than zero, we will add such difference to the Accumulation Value. Such addition will be allocated to the Divisions of the Separate Account in the same proportion as the Accumulation Value in each Division |

bears to the Accumulation Value in the Separate Account. If there is no Accumulation Value in the Separate Account, the addition will be allocated to the Liquid Asset Division, or its successor.
(b) |
The Guaranteed Death Benefit will continue to apply, with all age criteria using the surviving spouse's age as the determining age. |
(c) |
At subsequent surrender, any Surrender Charge applicable to premiums paid prior to the date we receive due proof of death of the Owner will be waived. Any premiums paid later will be subject to any applicable Surrender Charge. |
This addition to Accumulation Value is available only to the spouse of the Owner as of the date of death of the Owner if such spouse under the provisions if this Contract elects to continue the Contract as their own.

We charge a maximum of $30 to cover a portion of our ongoing administrative expenses for each Contract Processing Period. The charge is incurred at the beginning of the Contract Processing Period and deducted on the Contract Processing Date at the end of the period.
At the time of deduction, this charge will be waived if: (1) The Accumulation Value is at least $100,000; or (2) The sum of premiums paid to date is at least $100,000.
Excess Allocation Charge
Currently none, however, we reserve the right to charge $25 for a change if you make more than twelve allocation changes per Contract Year. Any charge will be deducted in proportion to the amount being transferred from each Division.
Surrender Charge
A Surrender Charge is imposed as a percentage of unliquidated premium if the Contract is surrendered or an Excess Partial Withdrawal is taken. The percentage imposed at time of surrender or Excess Partial Withdrawal depends on the number of complete years that have elapsed since a Premium Payment was made. The Surrender Charge expressed as a percentage of each Premium Payment is as follows:
Complete Years Elapsed | Surrender |
Since Premium Payment | Charges |
---------------------- | --------- |
[0 | 6% |
1 | 5% |
2 | 4% |
3 | 3% |
4+ | 0%] |
Surrender of the Contract is permitted at or before the commencement of Annuity Payments.

INTRODUCTION TO THIS CONTRACT -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
THE CONTRACT
This is a legal contract between you and us. We provide benefits as stated in this Contract. In return, you supply us with the Initial Premium Payment required to put this Contract in effect.
This Contract, together with any attached application, Riders or Endorsements, constitutes the entire Contract. Riders and Endorsements add provisions or change the terms of the basic Contract.
THE OWNER

Page 19 of 75
You are the Owner of this Contract. You are also the Annuitant unless another Annuitant has been named by you and is shown in the Schedule. You have the rights and options described in this Contract, including but not limited to the right to receive the Annuity Benefits on the Annuity Commencement Date.
One or more people may own this Contract. If there are multiple Owners named, the age of the oldest Owner will be used to determine the applicable Death Benefit. In the case of a sole Owner who dies prior to the Annuity Commencement Date, we will pay the Beneficiary the Death Benefit then due. If the sole Owner is not an individual, we will treat the Annuitant as Owner for the purpose of determining when the Owner dies under the Death Benefit provision (if there is no Contingent Annuitant), and the Annuitant's age will determine the applicable Death Benefit payable to the Beneficiary. The sole Owner's estate will be the Beneficiary if no Beneficiary designation is in effect, or if the designated Beneficiary has predeceased the Owner. In the case of a joint Owner of the Contract dying prior to the Annuity Commencement Date, the surviving Owner(s) will be deemed as the Beneficiary(ies).
THE ANNUITANT
The Annuitant is the measuring life of the Annuity Benefits provided under this Contract. You may name a Contingent Annuitant. The Annuitant may not be changed during the Annuitant's lifetime.
If the Annuitant dies before the Annuity Commencement Date, the Contingent Annuitant becomes the Annuitant. You will be the Contingent Annuitant unless you name someone else. The Annuitant must be a natural person.
If the Annuitant dies and no Contingent Annuitant has been named, we will allow you sixty days to designate someone other than yourself as an Annuitant. If all Owners are not individuals and, through the operation of this provision, an Owner becomes Annuitant, we will pay the death proceeds to the Beneficiary. If there are joint Owners, we will treat the youngest of the Owners as the Contingent Annuitant designated, unless you elect otherwise.
THE BENEFICIARY
The Beneficiary is the person to whom we pay death proceeds if any Owner dies prior to the Annuity Commencement Date. See Proceeds Payable to the Beneficiary for more information. We pay death proceeds to the primary Beneficiary (unless there are joint Owners in which case the Death Benefit proceeds are payable to the surviving Owner). If the primary Beneficiary dies before the Owner, the death proceeds are paid to the Contingent Beneficiary, if any. If there is no surviving Beneficiary, we pay the death proceeds to the Owner's estate.

INTRODUCTION TO THIS CONTRACT (continued) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
One or more persons may be named as primary Beneficiary or contingent Beneficiary. In the case of more than one Beneficiary, we will assume any death proceeds are to be paid in equal shares to the surviving Beneficiaries. You can specify other than equal shares.
You have the right to change Beneficiaries, unless you designate the primary

Beneficiary irrevocable. When an irrevocable Beneficiary has been designated, you and the irrevocable Beneficiary may have to act together to exercise the rights and options under this Contract.
CHANGE OF OWNER OR BENEFICIARY
During your lifetime and while this Contract is in effect, you can transfer ownership of this Contract or change the Beneficiary. To make any of these changes, you must send us written notice of the change in a form satisfactory to us. The change will take effect as of the day the notice is signed. The change will not affect any payment made or action taken by us before recording the change at our Customer Service Center. A Change of Owner may affect the amount of Death Benefit payable under this Contract.
See Proceeds Payable to Beneficiary.

PREMIUM PAYMENTS AND ALLOCATION CHANGES ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
INITIAL PREMIUM PAYMENT
The Initial Premium Payment is required to put this Contract in effect. The amount of the Initial Premium Payment is shown in the Schedule.
ADDITIONAL PREMIUM PAYMENTS
You may make additional Premium Payments under this Contract after the end of the Right to Examine period. Restrictions on additional Premium Payments, such as the Attained Age of the Annuitant or Owner and the timing and amount of each payment, are shown in the Schedule. We reserve the right to defer acceptance of or to return any additional Premium Payments.
As of the date we receive and accept your additional Premium Payment:
(1) The Accumulation Value will increase by the amount of the Premium Payment less any premium deductions as shown in the Schedule.
(2) The increase in the Accumulation Value will be allocated among the Divisions of the Variable Separate Account and General Account and allocations to the Fixed Account in accordance with your instructions.
If you do not provide such instructions, allocation will be among the Divisions of the Variable Separate Account and General Account and allocations to the Fixed Account in proportion to the amount of Accumulation Value in each Division or Fixed Allocation.
Where to Make Payments
Remit the Premium Payments to our Customer Service Center at the address shown on the cover page. On request we will give you a receipt signed by our treasurer.
YOUR RIGHT TO CHANGE ALLOCATION OF ACCUMULATION VALUE
You may change the allocation of the Accumulation Value among the Divisions and Fixed Allocations after the end of the Right to Examine period. Allocation changes in excess of twelve in any Contract Year are subject to the Excess Allocation Charge as stated in the Schedule. To make an allocation change, you

must provide us with satisfactory notice at our Customer Service Center. The change will take effect when we receive the notice. Restrictions for reallocation into and out of Divisions of the Variable Separate Account and General Account and allocations to the Fixed Account are shown in the Schedule. An allocation from the Fixed Account may be subject to a Market Value Adjustment. See the Schedule.
WHAT HAPPENS IF A VARIABLE SEPARATE ACCOUNT DIVISION IS NOT AVAILABLE
When a distribution is made from an investment portfolio supporting a unit investment trust Separate Account Division in which reinvestment is not available, we will allocate the distribution to the Specially Designated Division shown in the Schedule unless you specify otherwise.
Such a distribution may occur when an investment portfolio or Division matures, when distribution from a portfolio or Division cannot be reinvested in the portfolio or Division due to the unavailability of securities, or for other reasons. When this occurs because of maturity, we will send written notice to you thirty days in advance of such date. To elect an allocation to other than the Specially Designated Division shown in the Schedule, you must provide satisfactory notice to us at least seven days prior to the date the investment matures. Such allocations will not be counted as an allocation change of the Accumulation Value for purposes of the number of free allocations permitted.

PREMIUM PAYMENTS AND ALLOCATION CHANGES (continued) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
RESTRICTED FUNDS
Restricted Funds are subject to limits as to amounts which may be invested or transferred into such Divisions. The designation of a Division as a Restricted Fund may be changed upon 30 days notice to the Owner with regard to future transfers and Premium Payments into such Division. When a new Division is made available it may be designated as a Restricted Fund. If so designated, the rules regarding its restrictions will be sent to the Owner. Restricted Funds available under this Contract, if any, as well as applicable total Contract limits, are shown in the Schedule.
THRESHOLDS
Each Restricted Fund has one or more thresholds at which point no further amounts may be allocated to that Division. Compliance with a threshold is verified whenever there is a transaction initiated which is subject to such threshold (Premium Payments, transfers, withdrawals). A threshold is applied to the total Accumulation Value of each Restricted Fund. Thresholds may be changed by the Company for new premiums, transfers or withdrawals by Restricted Fund upon 30 day notice.
DOLLAR CAP
The Dollar Cap is the dollar amount at which no further Accumulation Value may be added to Restricted Funds.
PREMIUM THRESHOLD
xxxxx://xxx.xxx.xxx/Xxxxxxxx/xxxxx/xxxx/000000/000000000000000000/xx0xxxxxxxx.xxx 10/31/2017
Page 22 of 75
The threshold for premium by Restricted Fund limits the amount of any premium which may be allocated to that Division. Should a request for allocation to a Restricted Fund exceed the limit in effect for that Division or for the Contract, any excess over that amount shall be allocated prorata to any non-Restricted Fund(s) in which the Contract is then invested. Should the Contract not be invested in other non-Restricted Funds, the excess will be invested in the Specially Designated Division unless we receive written instructions to do otherwise. Premium allocations must also satisfy the Allocation Threshold.
ALLOCATION THRESHOLD
Allocations into a Restricted Fund are limited to that amount such that the Accumulation Value in that Restricted Fund after such allocation does not exceed the threshold for that Division and does not cause the Contract's total limit on allocation to Restricted Funds to be exceeded. If the amount of an allocation would cause either limit to be exceeded, the allocation will only be executed to the extent the lower limit would allow.
Allocations from a Restricted Fund will be allowed even if the amount remaining in the Restricted Fund after an allocation exceeds the Allocation Threshold. If a program of allocations over time is authorized by us, verification of the threshold will be performed at the initiation of such program. If such program is modified at a later date, a testing of thresholds will be done at that time.
GA-IA-1082

<PAGE>
PREMIUM PAYMENTS AND ALLOCATION CHANGES (continued) -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
THRESHOLDS - EFFECT ON WITHDRAWALS
If a withdrawal is requested while any Accumulation Value is allocated to Restricted Funds and the Allocation Threshold percentage is currently exceeded, the percentage for funds invested in Restricted Funds for the total Contract, after taking into account the withdrawal, may not be higher than prior to the withdrawal. Should the calculated effect of a withdrawal result in the total Contract threshold being exceeded, the excess portion of the withdrawal will be processed prorata from all variable Divisions. Systematic withdrawals, while the Contract has investments in Restricted Funds, if not withdrawn prorata from all Divisions, shall be monitored annually to assure threshold compliance. Should the effect of such withdrawals cause a Restricted Fund to exceed its threshold, the Divisions from which the withdrawals are processed may be adjusted to assure that the percentage of Accumulation Value in the Restricted Funds does not increase.
THRESHOLD PROCESSING
For the purpose of calculating any thresholds, the values for the Divisions will be determined using the prior day's closing Index of Investment Experience.

Page 23 of 75
HOW WE MEASURE THE CONTRACT'S ACCUMULATION VALUE -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The variable Annuity Benefits under this Contract are provided through investments which may be made in our Separate Accounts.
THE VARIABLE SEPARATE ACCOUNTS
These accounts, which are designated in the Schedule, are kept separate from ournGeneral Account and any other Separate Accounts we may have.
They are used to support Variable Annuity Contracts and may be used for other purposes permitted by applicable laws and regulations. We own the assets in the Separate Accounts. Assets equal to the reserves and other liabilities of the accounts will not be charged with liabilities that arise from any other business we conduct; but, we may transfer to our General Account assets which exceed the reserves and other liabilities of the Variable Separate Accounts. Xxxxxx and realized and unrealized gains or losses from assets in these Variable Separate Accounts are credited to or charged against the account without regard to other income, gains or losses in our other investment accounts.
The Variable Separate Account will invest in mutual funds, unit investment trusts and other investment portfolios which we determine to be suitable for this Contract's purposes. The Variable Separate Account is treated as a unit investment trust under Federal securities laws. It is registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") under the Investment Company Act of 1940. The Variable Separate Account is also governed by state law as designated in the Schedule. The trusts may offer non-registered series.
Variable Separate Account Divisions
A unit investment trust Separate Account includes Divisions, each investing in a designated investment portfolio. The Divisions and the investment portfolios designated may be managed by a separate investment adviser. Such adviser may be registered under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940.
Changes within the Variable Separate Accounts
We may, from time to time, make additional Variable Separate Account Divisions available to you. These Divisions will invest in investment portfolios we find suitable for this Contract. We also have the right to eliminate Divisions from a Variable Separate Account, to combine two or more Divisions or to substitute a new portfolio for the portfolio in which a Division invests. A substitution may become necessary if, in our judgment, a portfolio or Division no longer suits the purpose of this Contract. This may happen due to a change in laws or regulations, or a change in a portfolio's investment objectives or restrictions, or because the portfolio or Division is no longer available for investment, or for some other reason. We will obtain any required regulatory approvals before making such a substitution.
Subject to any required regulatory approvals, we reserve the right to transfer assets of the Variable Separate Account which we determine to be associated with the class of contracts to which this Contract belongs, to another Variable Separate Account or Division.
When permitted by law, we reserve the right to:
(1) deregister a Variable Separate Account under the Investment Company Act of 1940; (2) operate a Variable Separate Account as a management company under the Investment Company Act of 1940, if it is operating as a unit investment trust;
xxxxx://xxx.xxx.xxx/Xxxxxxxx/xxxxx/xxxx/000000/000000000000000000/xx0xxxxxxxx.xxx 10/31/2017
Page 24 of 75
(3) operate a Variable Separate Account as a unit investment trust under the Investment Company Act of 1940, if it is operating as a managed Variable Separate Account; (4) restrict or eliminate any voting rights of Owners, or other persons who have voting rights to a Variable Separate Account; and (5) combine a Variable Separate Account with other Variable Separate Accounts.

<PAGE>
HOW WE MEASURE THE CONTRACT'S ACCUMULATION VALUE (continued) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
THE GENERAL ACCOUNT
The General Account contains all assets of the Company other than those in the Separate Accounts we establish. The Guaranteed Interest Divisions available for investment are shown in the Schedule. We may, from time to time, offer other Divisions where assets are held in our General Account.
VALUATION PERIOD
Each Division and Fixed Allocation will be valued at the end of each Valuation Period on a Valuation Date. A Valuation Period is each Business Day together with any non-Business Days before it. A Business Day is any day the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) is open for trading, and the SEC requires mutual funds, unit investment trusts, or other investment portfolios to value their securities.
ACCUMULATION VALUE
The Accumulation Value of this Contract is the sum of the amounts in each of the Divisions of the Variable Separate Account and General Account and allocations to the Fixed Account. You select the Divisions of the Variable Separate Account, General Account and the Fixed Allocations to the Fixed Account to which to allocate the Accumulation Value.
ACCUMULATION VALUE IN EACH DIVISION AND FIXED ALLOCATION
On the Contract Date
On the Contract Date, the Accumulation Value is allocated to each Division and Fixed Allocation as elected by you, subject to certain terms and conditions imposed by us. We reserve the right to allocate premium to the Specially Designated Division during any Right to Examine period. After such time, allocation will be made proportionately in accordance with the initial allocation(s) as elected by you.
On each Valuation Date
At the end of each subsequent Valuation Period, the amount of Accumulation Value in each Division and Fixed Allocation will be calculated as follows:
(1) We take the Accumulation Value in the Division or Fixed Allocation at the end of the preceding Valuation Period.
(2) We multiply (1) by the Variable Separate Account Division's Net Rate of Return for the current Valuation Period or we calculate the interest to be credited to a Fixed Allocation or to a Guaranteed

Interest Division for the current Valuation Period. (3) We add (1) and (2).
(4) We add to (3) any additional Premium Payments (less any premium deductions as shown in the Schedule) allocated to the Division or Fixed Allocation during the current Valuation Period.
(5) We add or subtract allocations to or from that Division or Fixed Allocation during the current Valuation Period.
(6) We subtract from (5) any Partial Withdrawals which are allocated to the Division or Fixed Allocation during the current Valuation Period. (7) We subtract from (6) the amounts allocated to that Division or Fixed Allocation for: (a) any charges due for the Optional Benefit Riders as shown in the Schedule; (b) any deductions from Accumulation Value as shown in the Schedule.
All amounts in (7) are allocated to each Division or Fixed Allocation in the proportion that (6) bears to the Accumulation Value unless the Charge Deduction Division has been specified (see the Schedule).

HOW WE MEASURE THE CONTRACT'S ACCUMULATION VALUE (continued) -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
FIXED ACCOUNT
The Fixed Account is a Separate Account under state insurance law and is not required to be registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission under the Investment Company Act of 1940. The Fixed Account includes various Fixed Allocations which we credit with fixed rates of interest for the Guarantee Period or Periods you select. We reset the interest rates for new Fixed Allocations periodically based on our sole discretion.
Guarantee Periods
Each Fixed Allocation is guaranteed an interest rate or rates for a Guarantee Period. The Guaranteed Interest Rates for a Fixed Allocation are effective for the entire period. The Maturity Date of a Guarantee Period will be on the last day of the calendar month in which the Guarantee Period ends. Withdrawals and transfers made during a Guarantee Period may be subject to a Market Value Adjustment unless made within thirty days prior to the Maturity Date.
Upon the expiry of a Guarantee Period, we will transfer the Accumulation Value of the expiring Fixed Allocation to a Fixed Allocation with a Guarantee Period equal in length to the expiring Guarantee Period, unless you select another period prior to a Maturity Date. We will notify you at least thirty days prior to a Maturity Date of your options for renewal. If the period remaining from the expiry of the previous Guarantee Period to the Annuity Commencement Date is less than the period you have elected or the period expiring, the next shortest period then available that will not extend beyond the Annuity Commencement Date will be offered to you. If a period is not available, the Accumulation Value will be transferred to the Specially Designated Division.
We will declare Guaranteed Interest Rates for the then available Fixed Allocation Guarantee Periods. These interest rates are based solely on our expectation as to our future earnings. Declared Guaranteed Interest Rates are subject to change at any time prior to application to specific Fixed Allocations, although in no event will the rates be less than the Minimum

Guaranteed Interest Rate (see the Schedule).
Market Value Adjustments
A Market Value Adjustment will be applied to a Fixed Allocation upon withdrawal, transfer or application to an Income Plan if made more than thirty days prior to such Fixed Allocation's Maturity Date, except on Systematic Partial Withdrawals and IRA Partial Withdrawals. The Market Value Adjustment is applied to each Fixed Allocation separately.
The Market Value Adjustment is determined by multiplying the amount of the Accumulation Value withdrawn, transferred or applied to an Income Plan by the following factor:
1 + I | N/365 |
------------------------ | |
1 + J + .0050 | - 1 |
Where I is the Index Rate for a Fixed Allocation on the first day of the applicable Guarantee Period; J is the Index Rate for new Fixed Allocations with Guarantee Periods equal to the number of years (fractional years rounded up to the next full year) remaining in the Guarantee Period at the time of calculation; and N is the remaining number of days in the Guarantee Period at the time of calculation. (The Index Rate is described in the Schedule.)
Market Value Adjustments will be applied as follows:
(1) The Market Value Adjustment will be applied to the amount withdrawn before deduction of any applicable Surrender Charge.
(2) For a Partial Withdrawal, partial transfer or in the case where a portion of an allocation is applied to an Income Plan, the Market Value Adjustment will be calculated on the total amount that must be withdrawn, transferred or applied to an Income Plan in order to provide the amount requested.

<PAGE>
HOW WE MEASURE THE CONTRACT'S ACCUMULATION VALUE (continued) -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
(1) |
If the Market Value Adjustment is negative, it will be assessed first against any remaining Accumulation Value in the particular Fixed Allocation. Any remaining Market Value Adjustment will be applied against the amount withdrawn, transferred or applied to an Income Plan. |
(2) |
If the Market Value Adjustment is positive, it will be credited to any remaining Accumulation Value in the particular Fixed Allocation. If a cash surrender, full transfer or full application to an Income Plan has been requested, the Market Value Adjustment is added to the amount withdrawn, transferred or applied to an Income Plan. |
MEASUREMENT OF INVESTMENT EXPERIENCE
Index of Investment Experience

Page 27 of 75
The Investment Experience of a Variable Separate Account Division is determined on each Valuation Date. We use an Index to measure changes in each Division's experience during a Valuation Period. We set the Index at $10 when the first investments in a Division are made. The Index for a current Valuation Period equals the Index for the preceding Valuation Period multiplied by the Experience Factor for the current Valuation Period.
How We Determine the Experience Factor
For Divisions of a unit investment trust Separate Account the Experience Factor reflects the Investment Experience of the portfolio in which the Division invests as well as the charges assessed against the Division for a Valuation Period. The factor is calculated as follows:
(1) We take the net asset value of the portfolio in which the Division invests at the end of the current Valuation Period.
(2) We add to (1) the amount of any dividend or capital gains distribution declared for the investment portfolio and reinvested in such portfolio during the current Valuation Period. We subtract from that amount a charge for our taxes, if any.
(3) We divide (2) by the net asset value of the portfolio at the end of the preceding Valuation Period.
(4) We subtract the daily Mortality and Expense Risk Charge for each Division described in the Schedule for each day in the Valuation Period.
(5) We subtract the daily Asset Based Administrative Charge described in the Schedule for each day in the Valuation Period.
Calculations for Divisions investing in unit investment trusts are on a per unit basis.
Net Rate of Return for a Variable Separate Account Division
The Net Rate of Return for a Variable Separate Account Division during a Valuation Period is the Experience Factor for that Valuation Period minus one.
Interest Credited to a Guaranteed Interest Division
Accumulation Value allocated to a Guaranteed Interest Division will be credited with the Guaranteed Interest Rate for the Guarantee Period in effect on the date the premium or reallocation is applied. Once applied, such rate will be guaranteed until the Maturity Date of that Guarantee Period. Interest will be credited daily at a rate to yield the declared annual Guaranteed Interest Rate. No Guaranteed Interest Rate will be less than the Minimum Interest Rate shown in the Schedule.

CHARGES DEDUCTED FROM ACCUMULATION VALUE ON EACH CONTRACT PROCESSING DATE
Expense charges and fees are shown in the Schedule.
Charge Deduction Division Option
We will deduct all charges against the Accumulation Value of this Contract from the Charge Deduction Division if you elected this option on the application (see the Schedule). If you did not elect this Option or if the charges are greater than the amount in the Charge Deduction Division, the charges against the Accumulation Value will be deducted as follows:
(1) If these charges are less than the Accumulation Value in the Variable Separate Account Divisions, they will be deducted proportionately from all Divisions.
(2) If these charges exceed the Accumulation Value in the Variable Separate Account Divisions, any excess over such value will be deducted proportionately from any Fixed Allocations and Guaranteed Interest Divisions.
Any charges taken from the Fixed Account or the General Account will be taken from the Fixed Allocations and the Guaranteed Interest Divisions starting with the Guarantee Period nearest its Maturity Date until such charges have been paid.
At any time while this Contract is in effect, you may change your election of this Option. To do this you must send us a written request to our Customer Service Center. Any change will take effect within seven days of the date we receive your request.

(1) We take the Contract's Accumulation Value;
(2) We adjust for any applicable Market Value Adjustment; (3) We deduct any Surrender Charges;
(4) We deduct any charges shown in the Schedule that have been incurred but not yet deducted, including:

Page 29 of 75
At any time while the Annuitant is living and before the Annuity Commencement Date, you may surrender this Contract to us. To do this, you must return this Contract with a signed request for cancellation to our Customer Service Center.
The Cash Surrender Value will vary daily. We will determine the Cash Surrender Value as of the date we receive the Contract and your signed request in our Customer Service Center. All benefits under this Contract will then end.
We will usually pay the Cash Surrender Value within seven days; but, we may delay payment as described in the Payments We May Defer provision.
PARTIAL WITHDRAWAL OPTION
After the Contract Date, you may make Partial Withdrawals. Partial Withdrawals may be subject to a Partial Withdrawal Charge (see the Schedule). The minimum amount that may be withdrawn is shown in the Schedule. The maximum amount that may be withdrawn without Surrender Charge is shown in the Schedule. To take a Partial Withdrawal, you must provide us satisfactory notice at our Customer Service Center.
PROCEEDS PAYABLE TO THE BENEFICIARY
Prior to the Annuity Commencement Date
If the sole Owner dies prior to the Annuity Commencement Date, we will pay the Beneficiary the Death Benefit. If there are joint Owners and any Owner dies, we will pay the surviving Owners the Death Benefit. We will pay the amount on receipt of due proof of the Owner's death at our Customer Service Center. Such amount may be received in a single lump sum or applied to any of the Annuity Options (see Choosing an Income Plan). When the Owner (or all Owners where there are joint Owners) is not an individual, the Death Benefit will become payable on the death of the Annuitant prior to the Annuity Commencement Date (unless a Contingent Annuitant survived the Annuitant). Only one Death Benefit is payable under this Contract. In all events, distributions under the Contract must be made as required by applicable law.

begin making payments to the Owner. We will make these payments under the Annuity Option (or Options) as chosen in the application or as subsequently selected. You may choose or change an Annuity Option by making a written request at least 30 days prior to the Annuity Commencement Date. Unless you have chosen otherwise, Option 2 on a 10-year period certain basis will become effective. The amounts of the payments will be determined by applying the Accumulation Value on the Annuity Commencement Date in accordance with the Annuity Options section below (see Payments We May Defer). Before we pay any Annuity Benefits, we require the return of this Contract. If this Contract has been lost, we require the applicable lost Contract form.
ANNUITY COMMENCEMENT DATE SELECTION

If, at the time of the Owner's death, no Option has been chosen for paying the Death Benefit proceeds, the Beneficiary may choose an Option within one year. You may also elect an Annuity Option on surrender of the Contract for its Cash Surrender Value. For each Option we will issue a separate written agreement putting the Option into effect.
Our approval is needed for any Option where:
(1) the person named to receive payment is other than the Owner or Beneficiary; or (2) the person named is not a natural person, such as a corporation; or (3) any income payment would be less than the minimum annuity income payment shown in the Schedule.

Such amounts are guaranteed and will be calculated on the same basis as the Table for Income for Life, however, the amounts will be based on two lives.
Option 4. Annuity Plan
Payment may be made under any other method mutually agreed upon by you and us.
The minimum rates for Option 1 are based on 3% interest, compounded annually. The minimum rates for Options 2 and 3 are based on 3% interest, compounded annually, and the Annuity 2000 Mortality Table. We may pay a higher rate at our discretion.
PAYMENT WHEN NAMED PERSON DIES
When the person named to receive payment dies, we will pay any amounts still due as provided by the Option agreement. The amounts still due are determined as follows:
(1) For Option 1 or for any remaining guaranteed payments in Option 2, payments will be continued.

PARTIAL WITHDRAWALS
The maximum amount that can be withdrawn each Contract Year without being considered an Excess Partial Withdrawal is described below. We will collect a Surrender Charge for Excess Partial Withdrawals and a charge for any unrecovered Premium Taxes. In no event may a Partial Withdrawal be greater than 90% of the Cash Surrender Value. After a Partial Withdrawal, the remaining Accumulation Value must be at least $100 to keep the Contract in force.
Systematic Partial Withdrawals and Conventional Partial Withdrawals may not be taken in the same Contract Year.

(3) Premium Payments made [four] or more years prior to the withdrawal; and,
(4) Premium Payments made less than [four] years prior to withdrawal.
Earnings and Free Amounts are not treated as withdrawals of Premium Payments for purposes of calculating any Surrender Charge.
Conventional Partial Withdrawals
Minimum Withdrawal Amount: $100
The maximum amount that can be taken as a Conventional Partial Withdrawal each Contract Year without being considered an Excess Partial Withdrawal is the greater of:
(1) Earnings (defined below) not previously withdrawn, but not less than zero; and (2) The Free Amount, equal to 10% of Premium Payments not previously withdrawn, which were received within [four] years prior to the date of withdrawal.

Adjusted Premium for non-Special Funds shall mean all premium allocated to non-Special Funds, plus an adjustment for any amounts transferred to non-Special Funds, less a prorata adjustment for any amounts transferred or withdrawn from non-Special Funds. The amount of the prorata adjustment will equal (a) times (b) divided by (c), where: (a) is the Adjusted Premium for non-Special Funds prior to the transfer or withdrawal; (b) is the Accumulation Value of the transfer or withdrawal; and (c) is the Accumulation Value allocated to non-Special Funds before the transfer or withdrawal. Adjusted Premium for Special Funds has the same definition, but with respect to amounts allocated to Special Funds.
Transfers from Special Funds increase the Adjusted Premium for non-Special Funds by the lesser of the reduction of the Adjusted Premium for Special Funds and net Accumulation Value transferred. Transfers from non-Special Funds increase the Adjusted Premium for Special Funds by the reduction in the Adjusted Premium for non-Special Funds.
GUARANTEED DEATH BENEFIT
The Guaranteed Death Benefit for the Contract is equal to the sum of I and II below.
I. |
The Guaranteed Death Benefit Base for non-Special Funds. |
II. |
The Accumulation Value allocated to Special Funds. |
On the Contract Date, the Guaranteed Death Benefit Base for non-Special Funds is the initial premium, if applicable, allocated to non-Special Funds. On subsequent Valuation Dates, the Guaranteed Death Benefit Base for non-Special Funds is calculated as follows:
(1) |
Start with the Guaranteed Death Benefit Base for non-Special Funds on the prior Valuation Date. |
(2) |
Calculate interest on (1) for the current Valuation Period at the Guaranteed Death Benefit Interest Rate for non-Special Funds. |
(3) |
Add (1) and (2). |
(4) |
Add to (3) any additional premiums allocated to non-Special Funds during the current Valuation Period. |
(5) |
Add to (or subtract from) (4) adjustments for transfers from (to) Special Funds made during the Valuation Period. |
(6) |
Subtract from (5) the amount of any Special Partial Withdrawal Adjustments and Prorata Partial Withdrawal Adjustments for any partial withdrawals made from non-Special Funds during the current Valuation Period. |
The Guaranteed Death Benefit Base for Special Funds has a corresponding definition, but with respect to amounts allocated to Special Funds.
Transfers from Special Funds to non-Special Funds will reduce the Guaranteed Death Benefit Base for Special Funds on a prorata basis. The resulting increase in the Guaranteed Death Benefit Base for non-Special Funds will equal the lesser of the reduction in the Guaranteed Death Benefit Base for Special Funds and the net Accumulation Value transferred.

Transfers from non-Special Funds to Special Funds will reduce the Guaranteed Death Benefit Base for non-Special Funds on a prorata basis. The resulting increase in the Guaranteed Death Benefit Base for Special Funds will equal the reduction in Guaranteed Death Benefit Base for non-Special Funds.
GUARANTEED DEATH BENEFIT INTEREST RATE
The Guaranteed Death Benefit Interest Rate is [7%] compounded annually, except:
(a) |
For any portion of the Guaranteed Death Benefit Base for Special Funds, the Guaranteed Death Benefit Interest Rate is [7%] (compounded annually); and |
(b) |
For any valuation period ending after the Contract Anniversary on which the Owner attains age [80], or after the Maximum Guaranteed Death Benefit has been reached, the Guaranteed Death Benefit Interest Rate is [0%]. |
SPECIAL FUNDS
Where used in this Contract, Special Funds are [the Liquid Asset Division, the Limited Maturity Bond Division, the Fixed Allocations and the Guaranteed Interest Division]. We may add newly available Divisions as Special Funds. We may also reclassify an existing Division as a Special Fund or remove such designation upon 30 days notice to you. Such reclassification will apply to amounts transferred or otherwise added to such Division after the date of change. We may reduce the Mortality and Expense Risk Charge (if applicable) for that portion of the Contract invested in a Special Fund.
MAXIMUM GUARANTEED DEATH BENEFIT
The Maximum Guaranteed Death Benefit is equal to [three] times premium paid, reduced by the amount of any Partial Withdrawal Adjustments. The Maximum Guaranteed Death Benefit is allocated proportionally based on the Contract's allocation to Special and non-Special funds. Transfers and withdrawals will affect the allocation of the Maximum Guaranteed Death Benefit at the same proportion among the Special and non-Special Funds that they bear to the Accumulation Value transferred or withdrawn. Any addition due to spousal continuation will not affect the Maximum Guaranteed Death Benefit or the Guaranteed Death Benefit Base.

For any partial withdrawal, the Death Benefit components will be reduced by Prorata Partial Withdrawal Adjustments. A Prorata Partial Withdrawal Adjustment will be made unless a Special Partial Withdrawal Adjustment applies to the component for the withdrawal. Special Partial Withdrawal Adjustments are made when partial withdrawals in any Contract Year do not exceed [7%] of the sum of cumulative premiums, but only if partial withdrawals in each prior year did not exceed [7%] of the sum of premiums paid prior to that year. The Special Partial Withdrawal Adjustment is equal to the amount of the Accumulation Value withdrawn.

Special Partial Withdrawal Adjustments are applicable only in the calculation of the Maximum Guaranteed Death Benefit and the Guaranteed Death Benefit Base, and in all other cases withdrawals are treated as Prorata Partial Withdrawal Adjustments.
The Prorata Partial Withdrawal Adjustment to a Death Benefit component is equal to (1) divided by (2), multiplied by (3), where: (1) is the Accumulation Value withdrawn; (2) is the Accumulation Value immediately prior to withdrawal; and (3) is the amount of the applicable Death Benefit component immediately prior to the withdrawal. Separate adjustments will apply to the amounts in the Special and non-Special Funds.
CHANGE OF OWNER
A change of Owner from a sole Owner to a sole Owner (where there have never been multiple Owners designated) will result in recalculation of the Death Benefit, the Guaranteed Death Benefit, and the Maximum Guaranteed Death Benefit. If the new Owner's Attained Age at the time of the change is less than [80], the Guaranteed Death Benefit and the Maximum Guaranteed Death Benefit in effect prior to the change will remain in effect and the Death Benefit provision shall apply. If the new Owner's Attained Age at the time of the change is [80] or greater, but not greater than [85]:
(a) |
The Guaranteed Death Benefit and the Maximum Guaranteed Death Benefit |
|
following |
the change will be zero; and |
|
(b) |
The Death Benefit will then be the greatest of: |
|

the Cash Surrender Value; |
|

the Accumulation Value; and |

(3) the Minimum Death Benefit.
If ownership changes result in multiple Owners or if there has ever been multiple Owners, the Guaranteed Death Benefit and the Maximum Guaranteed Death Benefit shall be set to zero. If the oldest Owner is age [85] or younger at the time of the change, the Death Benefit will then be the greatest of (b) 1, (b) 2 or (b) 3 above.
If any Owner's or oldest multiple Owner's Attained Age is [86] or greater at the time of the change, the Guaranteed Death Benefit, the Minimum Death Benefit, and the Maximum Guaranteed Death Benefit will be zero, and the Death Benefit will then be the Cash Surrender Value.
When a change of Owner reduces the Guaranteed Death Benefit and the Maximum Guaranteed Death Benefit to zero, there will be a reduction in the Mortality and Expense Risk Charge.

SPOUSAL CONTINUATION UPON DEATH OF OWNER
If at the Owner's death, the surviving spouse of the deceased Owner is the Beneficiary and such surviving spouse elects to continue the Contract as their own pursuant to Internal Revenue Code Section 72(s) or the equivalent provisions of U.S. Treasury Department rules for qualified plans, the following will apply:
(a) |
If the greater of (ii) and (iv) in the Death |
Benefit provision as of them date we receive due proof of death of the Owner minus the Accumulation Value, also as of that date, is greater than zero, we will add such difference to the Accumulation Value. Such addition will be allocated to the Divisions of the Separate Account in the same proportion as the Accumulation Value in each Division bears to the Accumulation Value in the Separate Account. If there is no Accumulation Value in the Separate Account, the addition will be allocated to the Liquid Asset Division, or its successor. |
|
(b) |
The Guaranteed Death Benefit and the Maximum Guaranteed Death Benefit will continue to apply, using the surviving spouse's age as the determining age. |
(c) |
At subsequent surrender, any Surrender Charge applicable to premiums paid prior to the date we receive due proof of death of the Owner will |

be waived. Any premiums paid later will be subject to any applicable Surrender Charge.
This addition to Accumulation Value is available only to the spouse of the Owner as of the date of death of the Owner if such spouse under the provisions of this Contract elects to continue the Contract as their own.
CHOOSING AN INCOME PLAN
Required Date of Annuity Commencement
Distributions from a Contract funding a qualified plan must commence no later than [April 1st] of the calendar year following the calendar year in which the Owner attains age 70 1/2. Otherwise, the Annuity Commencement Date may be no later than the same date as the Contract Processing Date in the month following the Annuitant's 90th birthday. In applying the Accumulation Value, we may first collect any Premium Taxes due us. If, on the Annuity Commencement Date, a Surrender Charge remains, your elected Annuity Option must include a period certain of at least five years duration.
Minimum Annuity Income Payment
The minimum monthly annuity income payment that we will make is [$20].

Guarantee Periods
We currently offer Guarantee Periods of [1, 3, 5, 7 and 10] year(s). We reserve the right to offer Guarantee Periods of durations other than those available on the Contract Date. We also reserve the right to cease offering a particular Guarantee Period or Periods.
Index Rate
The Index Rate is the average of the Ask Yields for the U.S. Treasury Strips as reported by a national quoting service for the applicable maturity. The average is based on the period from the 22nd day of the calendar month two months prior to the calendar month of Index Rate determination to the 21st day of the calendar month immediately prior to the month of determination. The applicable maturity date for these U.S. Treasury Strips is on or next following the last day of the Guarantee Period. If the Ask Yields are no longer available, the Index Rate will be determined using a suitable replacement method.
We currently set the Index Rate once each calendar month. However, we reserve the right to set the Index Rate more frequently than monthly, but in no event will such Index Rate be based on a period less than 28 days.

Excess Allocation Charge
Currently none, however, we reserve the right to charge $25 for a change if you make more than twelve allocation changes per Contract Year. Any charge will be deducted in proportion to the amount being transferred from each Division.
Surrender Charge
A Surrender Charge is imposed as a percentage of unliquidated premium if the Contract is surrendered or an Excess Partial Withdrawal is taken. The percentage imposed at time of surrender or Excess Partial Withdrawal depends on the number of complete years that have elapsed since a Premium Payment was made. The Surrender Charge expressed as a percentage of each Premium Payment is as follows:

Contract Processing Date
The Contract Processing Date for your Contract is [April 1] of each year.
Specially Designated Division
When a distribution is made from an investment portfolio underlying a Separate Account Division in which reinvestment is not available, we will allocate the amount of the distribution to the [Liquid Asset Division] unless you specify otherwise.
PARTIAL WITHDRAWALS
The maximum amount that can be withdrawn each Contract Year without being considered an Excess Partial Withdrawal is described below. We will collect a Surrender Charge for Excess Partial Withdrawals and a charge for any unrecovered Premium Taxes. In no event may a Partial Withdrawal be greater than 90% of the Cash Surrender Value. After a Partial Withdrawal, the remaining Accumulation Value must be at least $100 to keep the Contract in force.

Systematic Partial Withdrawals and Conventional Partial Withdrawals may not be taken in the same Contract Year.
To determine the Surrender Charge on Excess Partial Withdrawals, the withdrawals will occur in the following order:
(1) |
Earnings; |
(2) |
The Free Amount; |
(3) |
Premium Payments made [four] or more years prior to the withdrawal; and |
(4) |
Premium Payments made less than [four] years prior to withdrawal. |
Earnings and Free Amounts are not treated as withdrawals of Premium Payments for purposes of calculating any Surrender Charge.
Conventional Partial Withdrawals
Minimum Withdrawal Amount: $100
The maximum amount that can be taken as a Conventional Partial Withdrawal each Contract Year without being considered an Excess Partial Withdrawal is the greater of:
(1) Earnings (defined below) not previously withdrawn, but not less than zero; and (2) The Free Amount, equal to 10% of Premium Payments not previously withdrawn, which were received within [four] years prior to the date of withdrawal.
Earnings are equal to the Accumulation Value, less Premium Payments, plus prior withdrawals.
Any Conventional Partial Withdrawal is subject to a Market Value Adjustment unless withdrawn from a Fixed Allocation within 30 days prior to the Maturity Date.

MINIMUM DEATH BENEFIT
The Minimum Death Benefit shall be the sum of the following:
1. |
The Accumulation Value allocated to Special Funds; and |
2. |
Adjusted Premium for non-Special Funds. |
Adjusted Premium for non-Special Funds shall mean all premium allocated to non-Special Funds, plus an adjustment for any amounts transferred to non-Special Funds, less a prorata adjustment for any amounts transferred or withdrawn from non-Special Funds. The amount of the prorata adjustment will equal (a) times (b) divided by (c), where (a) is the Adjusted Premium for non-Special Funds prior to the transfer or withdrawal; (b) is the Accumulation Value of the transfer or withdrawal; and (c) is the Accumulation Value allocated to non-Special Funds before the transfer or withdrawal. Adjusted Premium for Special Funds has the same definition, but with respect to amounts allocated to Special Funds.
Transfers from Special Funds increase the Adjusted Premium for non-Special Funds by the lesser of the reduction of the Adjusted Premium for Special Funds and net Accumulation Value transferred. Transfers from non-Special Funds increase the Adjusted Premium for Special Funds by the reduction in the Adjusted Premium for non-Special Funds.
GUARANTEED DEATH BENEFIT
The Guaranteed Death Benefit for the Contract is equal to the sum of I and
II |
below. |
|
I. |
The Guaranteed Death Benefit Base for non-Special Funds. |
|
II. |
The Accumulation Value allocated to Special Funds. |
|
On |
the Contract Date, the Guaranteed Death Benefit Base for non-Special Funds |
is the initial premium allocated to non-Special Funds. On subsequent Valuation Dates, the Guaranteed Death Benefit Base for non-Special Funds is calculated as follows:
(1) |
Start with the Guaranteed Death Benefit Base for non-Special Funds on the prior Valuation Date. |
(2) |
Add to (1) any additional premium allocated to the non-Special Funds during the current Valuation Period and adjustments for transfers from Special Funds during the current Valuation Period and subtract from (1) any adjustment for transfers to Special Funds during the current Valuation Period and any Prorata Partial Withdrawal Adjustments for any Partial Withdrawals taken from non-Special Funds during the current Valuation Period. |
(3) |
On a Valuation Date that occurs on or prior to the Owner's Attained Age [90], which is also a Contract Anniversary, we set the Guaranteed Death Benefit Base for non-Special Funds equal to the greater of (2) or the Accumulation Value allocated to non-Special Funds as of such date. On all other Valuation Dates, the Guaranteed Death Benefit Base for non-Special Funds is equal to (2). |
The Guaranteed Death Benefit Base for Special Funds has a corresponding definition, but with respect to amounts allocated to Special Funds.

Transfers from Special Funds to non-Special Funds will reduce the Guaranteed Death Benefit Base for Special Funds on a prorata basis. The resulting increase in the Guaranteed Death Benefit Base for non-Special Funds will equal the lesser of the reduction in the Guaranteed Death Benefit Base for Special Funds and the net Accumulation Value transferred.
Transfers from non-Special Funds to Special Funds will reduce the Guaranteed Death Benefit Base for non-Special Funds on a prorata basis. The resulting increase in the Guaranteed Death Benefit Base for Special Funds will equal the reduction in Guaranteed Death Benefit Base for non-Special Funds.
SPECIAL FUNDS
Where used in this Contract, Special Funds are [the Liquid Asset Division, the Limited Maturity Bond Division, the Fixed Allocations and the Guaranteed Interest Division]. We may add newly available Divisions as Special Funds. We may also reclassify an existing Division as a Special Fund or remove such designation upon 30 days notice to you. Such reclassification will apply to amounts transferred or otherwise added to such Division after the date of change. We may reduce the Mortality and Expense Risk Charge (if applicable) for that portion of the Contract invested in a Special Fund.
PRORATA PARTIAL WITHDRAWAL ADJUSTMENTS
For any partial withdrawal, the Death Benefit components will be reduced by Prorata Partial Withdrawal Adjustments. The Prorata Partial Withdrawal Adjustment to a Death Benefit component for a partial withdrawal is equal to (1) divided by (2) multiplied by (3), where: (1) is the Accumulation Value withdrawn; (2) is the Accumulation Value immediately prior to withdrawal; and (3) is the amount of the applicable Death Benefit component immediately prior to the withdrawal. Separate adjustments will apply to amounts in the Special and non-Special Funds.
CHANGE OF OWNER
A change of Owner from a sole Owner to a sole Owner (where there have never been multiple Owners designated) will result in recalculation of the Death Benefit and the Guaranteed Death Benefit. If the new Owner's Attained Age at the time of the change is less than [80], the Guaranteed Death Benefit

(a) |
The Guaranteed Death Benefit following the change will be zero; and |

(b) |
The Death Benefit will then be the greatest of: |

the Cash Surrender Value; |

the Accumulation Value; and |

If ownership changes result in multiple Owners or if there has ever been multiple Owners, the Guaranteed Death Benefit shall be set to zero. If the oldest Owner is age [85] or younger at the time of the change, the Death Benefit will then be the greatest of (b) 1, (b) 2 or (b) 3 above.
If any Owner's or oldest multiple Owner's Attained Age is [86] or greater at the time of the change, the Guaranteed Death Benefit will be zero, and the Death Benefit will then be the Cash Surrender Value.
When a change of Owner reduces the Guaranteed Death Benefit to zero, there will be a reduction in the Mortality and Expense Risk Charge.
SPOUSAL CONTINUATION UPON DEATH OF OWNER
If at the Owner's death, the surviving spouse of the deceased Owner is the Beneficiary and such surviving spouse elects to continue the Contract as their own pursuant to Internal Revenue Code Section 72(s) or the equivalent provisions of U.S. Treasury Department rules for qualified plans, the following will apply:
(a) |
If the greater of (ii) and (iv) in the Death Benefit provision as of the date we receive due proof of death of the Owner minus the Accumulation Value, also as of that date, is greater than zero, we will add such difference to the Accumulation Value. Such addition will be allocated to the Divisions of the Separate Account in the same proportion as the Accumulation Value in each |

Division bears to the Accumulation Value in the Separate Account. If there is no Accumulation Value in the Separate Account, the addition will be allocated to the Liquid Asset Division, or its successor.
(b) |
The Guaranteed Death Benefit and the Maximum Guaranteed Death Benefit will continue to apply, using the surviving spouse's age as the determining age. |
(c) |
At subsequent surrender, any Surrender Charge applicable to premiums paid prior to the date we receive due proof of death of the Owner will be waived. Any premiums paid later will be subject to any applicable Surrender Charge. |
This addition to Accumulation Value is available only to the spouse of the Owner as of the date of death of the Owner if such spouse under the provisions of this Contract elects to continue the Contract as their own.

Account Division in which reinvestment is not available, we will allocate the amount of the distribution to the [Liquid Asset Division] unless you specify otherwise.
PARTIAL WITHDRAWALS
The maximum amount that can be withdrawn each Contract Year without being considered an Excess Partial Withdrawal is described below. We will collect a Surrender Charge for Excess Partial Withdrawals and a charge for any unrecovered Premium Taxes. In no event may a Partial Withdrawal be greater than 90% of the Cash Surrender Value. After a Partial Withdrawal, the remaining Accumulation Value must be at least $100 to keep the Contract in force.
Systematic Partial Withdrawals and Conventional Partial Withdrawals may not be taken in the same Contract Year.
To determine the Surrender Charge on Excess Partial Withdrawals, the withdrawals will occur in the following order:
(1) |
Earnings; |
(2) |
The Free Amount; |
(3) |
Premium Payments made [four] or more years prior to the withdrawal; and |
(4) |
Premium Payments made less than [four] years prior to withdrawal. |
Earnings and Free Amounts are not treated as withdrawals of Premium Payments for purposes of calculating any Surrender Charge.
Conventional Partial Withdrawals | |
Minimum Withdrawal Amount: | $100 |
The maximum amount that can be taken as a Conventional Partial Withdrawal each Contract Year without being considered an Excess Partial Withdrawal is the greater of:
(1) Earnings (defined below) not previously withdrawn, but not less than zero; and (2) The Free Amount, equal to 10% of Premium Payments not previously withdrawn, which were received within [four] years prior to the date of withdrawal.
Earnings are equal to the Accumulation Value, less Premium Payments, plus prior withdrawals.
Any Conventional Partial Withdrawal is subject to a Market Value Adjustment unless withdrawn from a Fixed Allocation within 30 days prior to the Maturity Date.

Contract Processing Date
The Contract Processing Date for your Contract is [April 1] of each year.
Specially Designated Division
When a distribution is made from an investment portfolio underlying a Separate Account Division in which reinvestment is not available, we will allocate the amount of the distribution to the [Liquid Asset Division] unless you specify otherwise.
PARTIAL WITHDRAWALS
The maximum amount that can be withdrawn each Contract Year without being considered an Excess Partial Withdrawal is described below. We will collect a Surrender Charge for Excess Partial Withdrawals and a charge for any unrecovered Premium Taxes. In no event may a Partial Withdrawal be greater than 90% of the Cash Surrender Value. After a Partial Withdrawal, the remaining Accumulation Value must be at least $100 to keep the Contract in force.
Systematic Partial Withdrawals and Conventional Partial Withdrawals may not be taken in the same Contract Year.
To determine the Surrender Charge on Excess Partial Withdrawals, the withdrawals will occur in the following order:
(1) |
Earnings; |
(2) |
The Free Amount; |
(3) |
Premium Payments made [four] or more years prior to the withdrawal; and |
(4) |
Premium Payments made less than [four] years prior to withdrawal. |
Earnings and Free Amounts are not treated as withdrawals of Premium Payments for purposes of calculating any Surrender Charge.
Conventional Partial Withdrawals | |
Minimum Withdrawal Amount: | $100 |
The maximum amount that can be taken as a Conventional Partial Withdrawal each Contract Year without being considered an Excess Partial Withdrawal is the greater of:
(1) Earnings (defined below) not previously withdrawn, but not less than zero; and (2) The Free Amount, equal to 10% of Premium Payments not previously withdrawn, which were received within [four] years prior to the date of withdrawal.
Earnings are equal to the Accumulation Value, less Premium Payments, plus prior withdrawals.
Any Conventional Partial Withdrawal is subject to a Market Value Adjustment unless withdrawn from a Fixed Allocation within 30 days prior to the Maturity Date.

Adjusted Premium for non-Special Funds shall mean all premium allocated to non-Special Funds, plus an adjustment for any amounts transferred to non-Special Funds, less a prorata adjustment for any amounts transferred or withdrawn from non-Special Funds. The amount of the prorata adjustment will equal (a) times (b) divided by (c), where: (a) is the Adjusted Premium for non-Special Funds prior to the transfer or withdrawal; (b) is the Accumulation Value of the transfer or withdrawal; and (c) is the Accumulation Value allocated to non-Special Funds before the transfer or withdrawal. Adjusted Premium for Special Funds has the same definition, but with respect to amounts allocated to Special Funds.
Transfers from Special Funds increase the Adjusted Premium for non-Special Funds by the lesser of the reduction of the Adjusted Premium for Special Funds and net Accumulation Value transferred. Transfers from non-Special Funds increase the Adjusted Premium for Special Funds by the reduction in the Adjusted Premium for non-Special Funds.

On the Contract Date, the Guaranteed Death Benefit Base for non-Special Funds is the initial premium, if applicable, allocated to non-Special Funds. On subsequent Valuation Dates, the Guaranteed Death Benefit Base for non-Special Funds is calculated as follows:
(1) |
Start with the Guaranteed Death Benefit Base for non-Special Funds on the prior Valuation Date. |
(2) |
Calculate interest on (1) for the current Valuation Period at the Guaranteed Death Benefit Interest Rate for non-Special Funds. |
(3) |
Add (1) and (2). |
(4) |
Add to (3) any additional premiums allocated to non-Special Funds during the current Valuation Period. |
(5) |
Add to (or subtract from) (4) adjustments for transfers from (to) Special Funds made during the Valuation Period. |
(6) |
Subtract from (5) the amount of any Special Partial Withdrawal Adjustments and Prorata Partial Withdrawal Adjustments for any partial withdrawals made from non-Special Funds during the current Valuation Period. |
The Guaranteed Death Benefit Base for Special Funds has a corresponding definition, but with respect to amounts allocated to Special Funds.
Transfers from Special Funds to non-Special Funds will reduce the Guaranteed Death Benefit Base for Special Funds on a prorata basis. The resulting increase in the Guaranteed Death Benefit Base for non-Special Funds will equal the lesser of the reduction in the Guaranteed Death Benefit Base for Special Funds and the net Accumulation Value transferred.

GUARANTEED DEATH BENEFIT INTEREST RATE
The Guaranteed Death Benefit Interest Rate is [7%] compounded annually, except:
(a) For any portion of the Guaranteed Death Benefit Base for Special

Funds, the Guaranteed Death Benefit Interest Rate is [7%] (compounded annually); and
(b) |
For any valuation period ending after the Contract Anniversary on which the Owner attains age [80], or after the Maximum Guaranteed Death Benefit has been reached, the Guaranteed Death Benefit Interest Rate is [0%]. |
SPECIAL FUNDS
Where used in this Contract, Special Funds are [the Liquid Asset Division, the Limited Maturity Bond Division, the Fixed Allocations and the Guaranteed Interest Division]. We may add newly available Divisions as Special Funds. We may also reclassify an existing Division as a Special Fund or remove such designation upon 30 days notice to you. Such reclassification will apply to amounts transferred or otherwise added to such Division after the date of change. We may reduce the Mortality and Expense Risk Charge (if applicable) for that portion of the Contract invested in a Special Fund.
MAXIMUM GUARANTEED DEATH BENEFIT
The Maximum Guaranteed Death Benefit is equal to [three] times premium paid, reduced by the amount of any Partial Withdrawal Adjustments. The Maximum Guaranteed Death Benefit is allocated proportionally based on the Contract's allocation to Special and non-Special funds. Transfers and withdrawals will affect the allocation of the Maximum Guaranteed Death Benefit at the same proportion among the Special and non-Special Funds that they bear to the Accumulation Value transferred or withdrawn. Any addition due to spousal continuation will not affect the Maximum Guaranteed Death Benefit or the Guaranteed Death Benefit Base.
SPECIAL AND PRORATA PARTIAL WITHDRAWAL ADJUSTMENTS
For any partial withdrawal, the Death Benefit components will be reduced by Prorata Partial Withdrawal Adjustments. A Prorata Partial Withdrawal Adjustment will be made unless a Special Partial Withdrawal Adjustment applies to the component for the withdrawal. Special Partial Withdrawal Adjustments are made when partial withdrawals in any Contract Year do not exceed [7%] of the sum of cumulative premiums, but only if partial withdrawals in each prior year did not exceed [7%] of the sum of premiums paid prior to that year. The Special Partial Withdrawal Adjustment is equal to the amount of the Accumulation Value withdrawn.

Special Partial Withdrawal Adjustments are applicable only in the calculation of the Maximum Guaranteed Death Benefit and the Guaranteed Death Benefit Base, and in all other cases withdrawals are treated as Prorata Partial Withdrawal Adjustments.
The Prorata Partial Withdrawal Adjustment to a Death Benefit component is equal to (1) divided by (2), multiplied by (3), where: (1) is the Accumulation Value withdrawn; (2) is the Accumulation Value immediately prior to withdrawal; and (3) is the amount of the applicable Death Benefit component immediately prior to the withdrawal. Separate adjustments will apply to the amounts in the Special and non-Special Funds.
ALTERNATE GUARANTEED DEATH BENEFIT
The Alternate Guaranteed Death Benefit for the Contact is equal to the sum of I and II below.
I. |
The Alternate Guaranteed Death Benefit Base for non-Special Funds. |
II. |
The Accumulation Value allocated to Special Funds. |
On the Contract Date, the Alternate Guaranteed Death Benefit Base for non-Special Funds is the initial premium allocated to non-Special Funds. On subsequent Valuation Dates, the Alternate Guaranteed Death Benefit Base for non-Special Funds is calculated as follows:
(1) |
Start with the Alternate Guaranteed Death Benefit Base for non-Special Funds from the prior Valuation Date. |
(2) |
Add to (1) any additional premium allocated to the non-Special Funds during the current Valuation Period and adjustments for transfers from Special Funds during the current Valuation Period and subtract from (1) any adjustment for transfers to Special Funds during the current Valuation Period and any Prorata Partial Withdrawal Adjustments for any Partial Withdrawals taken from non-Special Funds during the current Valuation Period. |
(3) |
On a Valuation Date that occurs on or prior to the Owner's Attained Age [90], which is also a Contract Anniversary, we set the Alternate Guaranteed Death Benefit Base for non-Special Funds equal to the greater of (2) or the Accumulation Value as of such date. On all other Valuation Dates, the Alternate Guaranteed Death Benefit Base for non-Special Funds is equal to (2). |
The Alternate Guaranteed Death Benefit Base for Special Funds has a corresponding definition, but with respect to amounts allocated to Special Funds.
Transfers from Special Funds to non-Special Funds will reduce the Alternate Guaranteed Death Benefit Base for Special Funds on a prorata basis. The resulting increase in the Alternate Guaranteed Death Benefit Base for non-Special Funds will equal the lesser of the reduction in the Alternate Guaranteed Death Benefit Base for Special Funds and the net Accumulation Value transferred.

CHANGE OF OWNER
A change of Owner from a sole Owner to a sole Owner (where there have never been multiple Owners designated) will result in recalculation of the Death Benefit, the Guaranteed Death Benefit, the Alternate Guaranteed Death Benefit and the Maximum Guaranteed Death Benefit. If the new Owner's Attained Age at the time of the change is less than [80], the Guaranteed Death Benefit, the Alternate Guaranteed Death Benefit and the Maximum Guaranteed Death Benefit in effect prior to the change will remain in effect and the Death Benefit provision shall apply. If the new Owner's Attained Age at the time of the change is [80] or greater, but not greater than [85]:
(a) |
The Guaranteed Death Benefit, the Alternate Guaranteed Death Benefit and the Maximum Guaranteed Death Benefit following the change will be zero; and |
(b) |
The Death Benefit will then be the greatest of: 1) the Cash Surrender Value; 2) the Accumulation Value; and 3) the Minimum Death Benefit. |
If ownership changes result in multiple Owners or if there has ever been multiple Owners, the Guaranteed Death Benefit, the Alternate Guaranteed Death Benefit and the Maximum Guaranteed Death Benefit shall be set to zero. If the oldest Owner is age [85] or younger at the time of the change, the Death Benefit will then be the greatest of (b) 1, (b) 2 or (b) 3 above.
If any Owner's or oldest multiple Owner's Attained Age is [86] or greater at the time of the change, the Guaranteed Death Benefit, the Minimum Death Benefit, the Alternate Guaranteed Death Benefit and the Maximum Guaranteed Death Benefit will be zero, and the Death Benefit will then be the Cash Surrender Value.
When a change of Owner reduces the Guaranteed Death Benefit, the Alternate Guaranteed Death Benefit and the Maximum Guaranteed Death Benefit to zero, there will be a reduction in the Mortality and Expense Risk Charge.

SPOUSAL CONTINUATION UPON DEATH OF OWNER
If at the Owner's death, the surviving spouse of the deceased Owner is the Beneficiary and such surviving spouse elects to continue the Contract as their own pursuant to Internal Revenue Code Section 72(s) or the equivalent provisions of U.S. Treasury Department rules for qualified plans, the following will apply:
(a) |
If the greater of (ii), (iv), and (v) in the Death Benefit provision as of the date we receive due proof of death of the Owner, minus the Accumulation Value, also as of that date, is greater than zero, we will add such difference to the Accumulation Value. Such addition will be allocated to the Divisions of the Separate Account in the same proportion as the Accumulation Value in each Division bears to the Accumulation Value in the Separate Account. If there is no Accumulation Value in the Separate Account, the addition will be allocated to the Liquid Asset Division, or its successor. |
(b) |
The Guaranteed Death Benefit, the Alternate Guaranteed Death Benefit, the Minimum Death Benefit, and the Maximum Guaranteed Death Benefit will continue to apply, with all age criteria using the surviving spouse's age as the determining age. |
(c) |
At subsequent surrender, any Surrender Charge applicable to premiums paid prior to the date we receive due proof of death of the Owner will be waived. Any premiums paid later will be subject to any applicable Surrender Charge. |
This addition to Accumulation Value is available only to the spouse of the Owner as of the date of death of the Owner if such spouse under the provisions of this Contract elects to continue the Contract as their own.
CHOOSING AN INCOME PLAN
Required Date of Annuity Commencement
Distributions from a Contract funding a qualified plan must commence no later than April 1st of the calendar year following the calendar year in which the Owner attains age 70 1/2. Otherwise, the Annuity Commencement Date may be no later than the same date as the Contract Processing Date in the month following the Annuitant's 90th birthday. In applying the Accumulation Value, we may first collect any Premium Taxes due us. If, on the Annuity Commencement Date, a Surrender Charge remains, your elected Annuity Option must include a period certain of at least five years duration.
Minimum Annuity Income Payment
The minimum monthly annuity income payment that we will make is [$20].

Index Rate
The Index Rate is the average of the Ask Yields for the U.S. Treasury Strips as reported by a national quoting service for the applicable maturity. The average is based on the period from the 22nd day of the calendar month two months prior to the calendar month of Index Rate determination to the 21st day of the calendar month immediately prior to the month of determination. The applicable maturity date for these U.S. Treasury Strips is on or next following the last day of the Guarantee Period. If the Ask Yields are no longer available, the Index Rate will be determined using a suitable replacement method.
We currently set the Index Rate once each calendar month. However, we reserve the right to set the Index Rate more frequently than monthly, but in no event will such Index Rate be based on a period less than 28 days.

Administrative Charge
We charge a maximum of $30 to cover a portion of our ongoing administrative expenses for each Contract Processing Period. The charge is incurred at the beginning of the Contract Processing Period and deducted on the Contract Processing Date at the end of the period.
At the time of deduction, this charge will be waived if: (1) The Accumulation Value is at least $100,000; or (2) The sum of premiums paid to date is at least $100,000.
Excess Allocation Charge
Currently none, however, we reserve the right to charge $25 for a change if you make more than twelve allocation changes per Contract Year. Any charge will be deducted in proportion to the amount being transferred from each Division.
Surrender Charge
A Surrender Charge is imposed as a percentage of unliquidated premium if the Contract is surrendered or an Excess Partial Withdrawal is taken. The percentage imposed at time of surrender or Excess Partial Withdrawal depends on the number of complete years that have elapsed since a Premium Payment was made. The Surrender Charge expressed as a percentage of each Premium Payment is as follows:
