This Endorsement is part of the Contract. This Contract is issued to or
purchased by the trustee of a pension or profit-sharing plan intended to qualify
under section 401(a) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the
"Code"). The following provisions apply and replace any contrary Contract
provisions:
(1) Except as allowed by the qualified pension or profit-sharing plan of
which this Contract is a part, the Contract may not be transferred,
sold, assigned, discounted or pledged, either as collateral for a loan
or as security for the performance of an obligation or for any other
purpose, to any person other than the Company.
(2) This Contract shall be subject to the provisions, terms and conditions
of the qualified pension or profit-sharing plan of which the Contract
is a part. Any payment, distribution or transfer under this Contract
shall comply with the provisions, terms and conditions of such plan as
determined by the plan administrator, trustee or other designated plan
fiduciary. The Company shall be under no obligation either (a) to
determine whether any such payment, distribution or transfer complies
with the provisions, terms and conditions of such plan or with
applicable law, or (b) to administer such plan, including, without
limitation, any provisions required by the Retirement Equity Act of
1984.
(3) Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary in this Contract or the
qualified pension or profit-sharing plan of which this Contract is a
part, we reserve the right to amend or modify this Contract or
Endorsement to the extent necessary to comply with any law,
regulation, ruling or other requirement deemed by us to be necessary
to establish or maintain the qualified status of such pension or
profit-sharing plan.
Except as otherwise set forth above, this Endorsement is subject to the
exclusions, definition, and provisions of the Contract.
