RIDER FOR FLEXIBLE TERM INSURANCE BENEFIT ON LIFE OF
INSURED
This rider is a part of this contract only if it is
listed on a contract data page.
RIDER DEATH BENEFIT We will pay an amount under this benefit if we
receive due proof that the insured died; (1) in the
term period for this benefit; and (2) while this
contract is in force and not in default past the
last day of the grace period. The term period starts
on the effective date for this rider shown under
Other Benefit(s) on the Insured in the contract data
pages. The term period ends on the contract
anniversary on or after the Insured's one hundredth
birthday. Our payment is subject to all the
provisions of the benefit and of the rest of the
contract.
To determine the rider death benefit on any date, we
first take the effective Target Coverage Amount
shown in the Life Insurance on the Insured section
of the contract data pages and subtract from it the
death benefit as calculated in the Death Benefit
provision. If this contract has a Type A death
benefit (see Type of Death Benefit in the contract
data pages), the resultant amount is the rider
death benefit. If this contract has a Type B death
benefit, the rider death benefit is the resultant
amount plus the contract fund before deduction of
any monthly charges due on that date. If this
contract has a Type C death benefit, the rider death
benefit is the resultant amount plus the total
premiums paid minus total withdrawals to this
contract both accumulated with interest at the
rate(s) displayed in the contract data pages. The
total premiums paid will not include any charge to
reinstate this contract as described under
Reinstatement.
If the rider death benefit is less than zero, we
consider it to be zero.
RIDER CHARGES On each monthly date, we will deduct a charge for
this rider from the contract fund. To determine the
maximum charge for this rider, we use the following
method:
We determine the maximum cost of insurance rate for
each currently effective rider coverage segment
amount shown in the Segment Table in the contract
data pages using the maximum monthly rate shown
under the Table of Maximum Monthly Insurance Rates
for the appropriate rating class. If there is only
one rider coverage segment amount currently in
effect, we multiply the rate by the rider death
benefit amount divided by $1000 and add an
administrative charge of up to $0.05 multiplied by
the rider coverage amount divided by $1000 to
determine the maximum charge for this rider.
If there are two or more rider coverage segment
amounts currently in effect, we first allocate the
rider death benefit amount to each rider coverage
segment based on the proportion of its rider
coverage amount to the total of all rider coverage
amounts currently in effect. We multiply the rate by
the apportioned rider death benefit amount for each
rider segment component amount divided by $1000 and
add the results. To this amount, we add an
administrative charge of up to $0.05 multiplied by
the rider coverage amount for each rider segment
currently in effect divided by $1000 to determine
the total maximum charge for this rider.
REQUESTED CHANGES IN
RIDER COVERAGE AMOUNT You may change the Rider Coverage Amount, while this
rider is in force, subject to our approval and the
following conditions:
1. You must ask for the change in a form that
meets our needs.
2. The change must be one permitted by our
current underwriting rules.
3. The amount of an increase or decrease must be
at least equal to the minimum increase or
decrease in the Rider Coverage Amount shown
under Contract Limitations in the contract
data pages
4. The Rider Coverage Amount after a decrease
must be at least equal to the minimum Rider
Coverage Amount shown under Contract
Limitations in the contract data pages.

PLI 455--1999

5. The sum of the basic insurance amount and the
Rider For Flexible Term Insurance Benefit on
Life of Insured coverage amount must equal or
exceed the amount shown under Contract
Limitations.
6. If we ask you to do so, you must send us the
contract to be endorsed.
7. You must prove to us that the Insured is
insurable for any increase.
8. The contract must not be in default.
9. We may deny an increase if it would cause the
number of segments shown in the Segment Table
in the contract data pages to exceed
ninety-nine.
A change will take effect only if we approve your
request for it at our Home Office. Unless you ask us
otherwise, the change will take effect on the
monthly date immediately following the date we
approve the change. You may request an earlier date,
but it may not be more than 90 days prior to the
date of request. if we approve the change, we will
also recompute the contract's charges, values and
limitations. We will send you new contract data
pages showing the amount and effective date of the
change and the recomputed charges, values and
limitations. If the Insured is not living on the
effective date, the change will not take effect. We
may deduct the administrative charge (shown under
Adjustments to the Contract Fund) for the change.
SUICIDE The Suicide Exclusion provision of the contract
applies to this rider as issued.
If the insured, whether sane or insane, dies by
suicide after two years from the issue date but
within two years of the effective date of an
increase in the Rider Coverage Amount, we will pay,
as to the increase in the Rider Coverage Amount, no
more than the sum of the premiums paid on and after
the effective date of the increase.
TERMINATION This rider will end on the earliest of:
1. the end of its term period;
2. the end of the grace period if the contract
is in default and the premium required to
bring it out of default has not been paid;
3. the date the contract is surrendered for its
net cash value if it has one; and
4. the date the contract ends for any other
reason.
We will allow you to cancel this rider only if the
Basic Insurance Amount equals or exceeds the minimum
amount shown under Contract Limitations for the sum
of both the basic insurance amount and the rider
coverage amount. We will then cancel the rider as of
the monthly date on or after the date we receive
your request. If we do so, monthly charges due then
and later will be reduced accordingly.
