FIRST SUNAMERICA LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY ("We", "Us", the "Company", or "First
SunAmerica") agrees to provide benefits to the Owner in accordance with the
provisions set forth in this Contract and in consideration of the Application
and Purchase Payments We receive.
THE VALUE OF AMOUNTS ALLOCATED TO THE SEPARATE ACCOUNT DURING THE ACCUMULATION
AND ANNUITY PERIODS IS NOT GUARANTEED, AND WILL INCREASE OR DECREASE BASED UPON
THE INVESTMENT EXPERIENCE OF THE VARIABLE PORTFOLIOS YOU CHOOSE.
THE SEPARATE ACCOUNT CHARGE IS CHARGED AGAINST THE ASSETS OF THE SEPARATE
ACCOUNT. THIS CHARGE INCLUDES FEES FOR MORTALITY AND EXPENSE RISK AND THE
DISTRIBUTION EXPENSE. ON AN ANNUALIZED BASIS THE CHARGE EQUALS 1.00%. THESE
CHARGES ARE ASSESSED, ON A SIMPLE INTEREST BASIS, AS A PERCENTAGE OF THE AVERAGE
DAILY ENDING VALUE OF THE ASSETS ATTRIBUTABLE TO THE ACCUMULATION UNITS OF THE
VARIABLE PORTFOLIOS TO WHICH YOUR CONTRACT VALUE IS ALLOCATED. THE DAILY CHARGE
IS 1/365TH OF THE ANNUALIZED CHARGE. THUS, THE SMALLEST ANNUAL EFFECTIVE RATE OF
THE INVESTMENT RETURN THAT WOULD HAVE TO BE EARNED ON ASSETS OF THE SEPARATE
ACCOUNT SO THAT THE DOLLAR AMOUNT OF VARIABLE ANNUITY PAYMENTS WILL NOT DECREASE
IS 4.54%, COMPOUNDED DAILY. THE CONTRACT'S RATE OF RETURN IS BASED ON COMPOUND
INTEREST.
RIGHT TO EXAMINE - IF, WITHIN 10 DAYS OF RECEIPT OF THIS CONTRACT (60 DAYS IF
THE CONTRACT REPLACED ANY OTHER LIFE INSURANCE OR ANNUITY CONTRACT(S)) YOU ARE
NOT SATISFIED WITH IT, YOU MAY RETURN THIS CONTRACT TO OUR ANNUITY SERVICE
CENTER OR TO THE AGENT THROUGH WHOM THE CONTRACT WAS PURCHASED. THE COMPANY WILL
REFUND THE PURCHASE PAYMENT OR THE CONTRACT VALUE, WHICHEVER IS GREATER,
COMPUTED AS OF THE BUSINESS DAY DURING WHICH WE RECEIVE THE CONTRACT. UPON SUCH
REFUND, THE CONTRACT SHALL BE VOID.
For Individual Retirement Annuities, or if a refund of the Purchase Payment(s)
is otherwise required We reserve the right to allocate your Purchase Payment(s)
to the Cash Management Portfolio until the end of the Right To Examine period.
Thereafter, allocations will be made as selected by You on Your Application.
With 30 days advance notice, we may cease offering Fixed Account Guarantee
Period Options and/or Dollar Cost Averaging Options if market conditions are
such that we are not able to credit the Minimum Guarantee Rate shown on the
Contract Data Page.

PURCHASE PAYMENTS
Purchase Payments are flexible. This means that, subject to Company disclosed
restrictions, You may change the amounts, frequency and/or timing of Purchase
Payments. Purchase Payments will be allocated in accordance with instructions
from You to the Variable Portfolio(s) and/or Fixed Account Option(s), if
available. The minimum Purchase Payment that may be allocated to a Variable
Portfolio or available Fixed Account Option under the Contract is $100. Subject
to prior Company approval, the maximum of all Purchase Payments made to the
Contract may not exceed $1,000,000.
DOLLAR COST AVERAGING PROGRAM
To facilitate a dollar cost averaging program, a source account and target
account(s) must be identified. Subject to Company disclosed restrictions, a
source account can be any available 1-year fixed account, available fixed
accounts designed to facilitate Dollar Cost Averaging (DCA Fixed Accounts) or a
Variable Portfolio. The target account must be a Variable Portfolio. Any portion
of a Purchase Payment allocated to any available DCA Fixed Account Options must
be transferred out to the Variable Portfolio(s) within the specified DCA Fixed
Account period. Upon termination of a DCA program using the DCA Fixed Account as
a source account, any amounts remaining in the DCA Fixed Account will be
transferred to the target allocation(s) for the program being terminated. If
money remains in a DCA Fixed Account at the time of annuitization, that amount
will be applied towards a Fixed Annuitization. The unit values credited and
applied to your Contract are determined on the date of transfer. The minimum
amount that may be allocated to the 6-month DCA Fixed Account Option is $600.
The minimum amount that may be allocated to the 12-month DCA Fixed Account
Option is $1,200. If market conditions exist such that we are not able to credit
at least the Minimum Guarantee Rate for Fixed Account Options shown on Contract
Data Page, we reserve the right to cease offering DCA Fixed Account Options. We
will notify you 30 days before the end of a Fixed Account Option if we exercise
this right.
7
SUBSTITUTION OF VARIABLE PORTFOLIO
If the shares of an Underlying Fund should no longer be available for investment
by the Separate Account, then We may substitute shares of another Underlying
Fund, for shares already purchased, or to be purchased in the future.
Substitutions of securities will be carried out in accordance with any
applicable state and/or federal laws or regulations.
ACCUMULATION PROVISIONS
Prior to the Annuity Date, the Contract Value is the sum of the Separate Account
Accumulation Value and the Fixed Account Accumulation Value, if any. If Your
Contract Value falls below $2,500, subject to applicable state and federal laws,
rules and regulations, we may terminate Your Contract and send you the remaining
dollar amount.
SEPARATE ACCOUNT ACCUMULATION VALUE
The Separate Account Accumulation Value under the Contract shall be the sum of
the values of the Accumulation Units held in the Variable Portfolios for the
Owner.
NUMBER OF ACCUMULATION UNITS
Your Contract is credited with Accumulation Units of the Separate Account when
amounts are allocated to the Variable Portfolio(s). For that portion of each
Purchase Payment and/or transfer amount allocated to a Variable Portfolio, the
number of Accumulation Units credited is equal to the sum of each Purchase
Payment and/or transfer amount allocated to the Variable Portfolio reduced by
premium taxes, if any:
Divided by
The Accumulation Unit value for that Variable Portfolio for the NYSE business
day in which the Purchase Payment or transfer amount is allocated.
The number of Accumulation Units will be reduced for Withdrawals of Contract
Value, annuitizations, amounts transferred out of a Variable Portfolio, the
Contract Maintenance Fee and applicable charges for optional features as set
forth in endorsements to this Contract. Reductions will be made as of the NYSE
business day in which We receive all requirements for the transaction, as
appropriate.
ACCUMULATION UNIT VALUE (AUV)
The AUV of a Variable Portfolio for any NYSE business day is calculated by
subtracting (2) from (1) and dividing the result by (3) where:
(1) is the total value at the end of the given NYSE business day of the assets
attributable to the Variable Portfolio minus any applicable liabilities
other than those owed to the Contractholders;
(2) is the amount equal to the daily Separate Account Charge plus the daily
charge for any optional features that impose a daily charge;
(3) is the number of Accumulation Units outstanding at the end of the given
NYSE business day.
FIXED ACCOUNT ACCUMULATION VALUE
The Fixed Account Accumulation Value, if any, shall be the sum of all monies
allocated or transferred to the Fixed Account Option(s), if available, reduced
by any applicable premium taxes, plus all interest credited on the Fixed Account
Option(s) during the period that You have Contract Value allocated to the Fixed
Account Options. This amount shall be adjusted for Withdrawals, annuitizations,
transfers, and the deduction of the Contract Maintenance Fee and applicable
charges for elected features as set forth in endorsements to this Contract. The
Fixed Account Accumulation Value shall not be less than the minimum values
required by law in the State of New York.
8
FIXED ACCOUNT GUARANTEE PERIOD OPTIONS AND INTEREST CREDITING
The portion of Your Contract Value within the Fixed Account, if any, is credited
with interest at rates guaranteed by Us for the Guarantee Period(s) selected.
Interest is credited on a daily basis at the then applicable effective interest
rate for the applicable Guarantee Period. You may select from one or more
Guarantee Periods which we may offer at any particular time. We reserve the
right at any time to add Guarantee Periods. We also reserve the right to cease
offering Guarantee Periods if market conditions are such that we are not able to
credit the Minimum Guarantee Rate for Fixed Account Options shown on the
Contract Data Page. We will notify you 30 days before the end of a Guarantee
Period if we exercise this right. If You have allocated any part of Your initial
Purchase Payment to a Guarantee Period, the amount allocated, as well as the
duration of the Guarantee Period is shown on the Application as completed by
You. The interest rate applicable to an allocation of Purchase Payment or
transfer of Contract Value to a Guarantee Period is the rate in effect for that
Guarantee Period at the time of the allocation or transfer. If You have
allocated or transferred amounts at different times to the Fixed Account, each
allocation or transfer may have a unique effective interest rate associated with
that amount. We guarantee that the effective annual rate of interest for the
Fixed Account, including any of the Guarantee Periods, will not be less than the
Minimum Guarantee Rate as mandated by the laws of New York, and shown on
Contract Data Page. The minimum guarantee rate under Your Contract as referenced
on the Contract Data Page is at least equal to the lesser of: (a) 3% per annum;
or (b) the three-month average value of the five-year Constant Maturity Treasury
Rate reported by the Federal Reserve, rounded up to the nearest 1/4th of 1%, for
the second, third and fourth month preceding the first day of the calendar
quarter during which the Contract is issued, reduced by 1.25% and where the
resulting interest rate is not less than 1%.
CHARGES AND DEDUCTIONS
We will deduct the following charges from the Contract:
CONTRACT MAINTENANCE FEE
The charge specified on the Contract Data Page will be deducted on each Contract
anniversary that occurs on or prior to the Annuity Date. It will also be
deducted when the Contract Value is withdrawn in full if the Withdrawal is not
on the Contract anniversary. We also reserve the right to waive the fee for
Contracts with a value of $50,000.00 or greater on the Contract anniversary.
WITHDRAWAL CHARGE
The charge, if any, may be deducted upon withdrawal of any portion of the
Contract Value. See the Contract Data Page.
SEPARATE ACCOUNT CHARGE
This charge, as shown on the Contract Data Page, on an annualized basis equals a
percentage of the average daily ending value of the assets attributable to the
Accumulation Units of the Variable Portfolio(s) to which the Contract is
allocated. This charge compensates Us for mortality and expense risks, and
distribution expenses associated with the Contract. We subtract this charge
daily.
TRANSFER PROVISIONS
Prior to the Annuity Date, You may transfer all or part of Your Contract Value
from any Variable Portfolio to any other Variable Portfolio(s) or available
Fixed Account Options subject to applicable restrictions. The minimum amount
that can be transferred and the amount that can remain in a Variable Portfolio
or available Fixed Account Option are subject to Company limits. We reserve the
right to charge a fee, as shown on the Contract Data Page, for transfers if the
number of transfers exceeds a limit of fifteen (15) in any Contract Year.
Automatic asset rebalancing and/or transfers arising out of the DCA program are
not counted against the 15 allowable free transfers. We further reserve the
right to restrict Your transfer privileges, including possible termination of
those privileges, if we determine that a pattern of transfers reflects a market
timing strategy or is potentially harmful to other contract owners.
9
TRANSFERS OF ACCUMULATION AND ANNUITY UNITS BETWEEN VARIABLE PORTFOLIOS AND
FIXED ACCOUNTS
Prior to the Annuity Date, transfers are subject to certain restrictions. You
may transfer all or a portion of Your Contract Value from one Variable Portfolio
to another Variable Portfolio(s) or any available Fixed Account Option(s), other
than the DCA Account Options. You may also transfer from any available Fixed
Account Option(s) to the Variable Portfolio(s) and/or any available Fixed
Account Option(s) of the Contract. A transfer will result in the redemption of
Accumulation Units in a Variable Portfolio and the purchase of Accumulation
Units in the other Variable Portfolio. Transfers will be effected at the end of
the NYSE business day in which We receive Your completed request for the
transfer.
After the Annuity Date, transfers into and out of any available Fixed Account
Option(s) are not allowed. You may transfer all or a portion of Your Contract
Value from one Variable Portfolio to another Variable Portfolio(s). A transfer
will result in the redemption of Annuity Units in a Variable Portfolio and the
purchase of Annuity Units in the other Variable Portfolio. Transfers will be
effected for the last NYSE business day of the month in which We receive Your
request for the transfer.
WITHDRAWAL PROVISIONS
On or before the Annuity Date and while the Owner is living, You may withdraw
all or part of Your Contract Value under this Contract by informing Us at Our
Annuity Service Center, subject to the requirement that the amount remaining
after withdrawal must be at least $500. For a full withdrawal, this Contract
must be returned to Our Annuity Service Center. The minimum amount that can be
withdrawn is $1,000, subject to the minimums set forth by the laws of the State
of New York.
Unless You tell Us otherwise in writing, Withdrawals will be deducted from the
Contract Value in proportion to their allocation among any available Fixed
Account Options and the Variable Portfolios. Withdrawals will be based on values
for the NYSE business day in which the request for withdrawal and the Contract
(in the case of a full withdrawal), are received at Our Annuity Service Center.
Unless the SUSPENSION OF PAYMENTS or DEFERMENT OF PAYMENTS sections are in
effect, payment of withdrawals will be made within seven calendar days.
WITHDRAWAL CHARGE
Withdrawals of all or a portion of the Contract Value may be subject to a
Withdrawal Charge as shown on the Contract Data Page. The Withdrawal Charge
percentage applied to any withdrawal will depend on how long the Purchase
Payment to which the withdrawal is attributed has been in the Contract. No
Withdrawal Charge is deducted on an amount which is considered a Penalty-Free
Withdrawal.
For the purpose of determining the Withdrawal Charge, a withdrawal will be
attributed to amounts in the following order: (1) penalty-free earnings in the
Contract; (2) Purchase Payments which are no longer subject to the Withdrawal
Charge and not yet withdrawn; (3) any remaining Penalty-Free Withdrawal amount
(except in the case of a full surrender); and (4) Purchase Payments subject to a
Withdrawal Charge. Purchase Payments, when withdrawn, are assumed to be
withdrawn on a first-in-first-out (FIFO) basis. You will not receive the benefit
of a Penalty-Free Withdrawal in case of a full surrender.
The Withdrawal Charge will be assessed against the Variable Portfolio(s) and the
available Fixed Account Option(s) in the same proportion as the remaining
Contract Value is allocated unless You request that the Withdrawal come from a
particular Variable Portfolio or available Fixed Account Option. After a
Withdrawal is taken, the remaining Contract Value must be sufficient to cover
any Withdrawal Charge remaining upon full surrender of the Contract.
10
PENALTY-FREE WITHDRAWALS
As of any day, You may make a withdrawal of up to the Penalty-Free Withdrawal
amount for that day without incurring a Withdrawal Charge. Any Penalty-Free
Withdrawal made in excess of penalty-free earnings in the Contract is considered
to be a withdrawal of future penalty-free earnings and is therefore not a
withdrawal of the Total Invested Amount. On any day, penalty-free earnings in
the Contract are calculated as the Contract Value at the end of that day less
the Total Invested Amount.
During the first Contract Year, the maximum Penalty-Free Withdrawal amount is
equal to the penalty-free earnings in the Contract as of the date of withdrawal.
Alternatively, during the first Contract Year, You may make withdrawals of the
Penalty-Free Withdrawal amount through the Systematic Withdrawal Program. The
maximum Penalty-Free Withdrawal amount as of any systematic withdrawal date is
10% of the Total Invested Amount less any withdrawals already made during the
Contract Year.
After the first Contract Year, the maximum Penalty-Free Withdrawal amount as of
the date of the withdrawal is the greater of:
(a) penalty-free earnings in the Contract as of that date; or
(b) 10% of the Total Invested Amount, less any withdrawals already made during
the year. Although amounts withdrawn free of a Withdrawal Charge reduce Contract
Value, they do not reduce the Total Invested Amount for purposes of calculating
the Withdrawal Charge or for the purposes of calculating penalty-free earnings
in the Contract. As a result, You will not receive the benefit of a Penalty-Free
Withdrawal in a full surrender.
SYSTEMATIC WITHDRAWAL PROGRAM
Prior to the Annuity Date, You may elect to participate in a Systematic
Withdrawal Program by informing Us at Our Annuity Service Center. The Systematic
Withdrawal Program allows You to make automatic withdrawals from Your account
monthly, quarterly, semiannually or annually. The minimum systematic withdrawal
amount is $100, provided that the amount remaining after withdrawal is $500. Any
amount withdrawn through the Systematic Withdrawal Program may be subject to a
Withdrawal Charge as discussed in the WITHDRAWAL CHARGE and PENALTY-FREE
WITHDRAWALS provisions. You may terminate Your participation in the Systematic
Withdrawal Program at any time by sending Us a written request. We reserve the
right to modify, suspend or terminate the Systematic Withdrawal Program at any
time.
Systematic withdrawals will be deducted first from the Penalty-Free Withdrawal
amount available each Contract Year.
DEATH PROVISIONS
Notwithstanding any provision of this Contract to the contrary, all payments of
benefits under this Contract will be made in a manner that satisfies the
requirements of IRC Section 72(s), as amended from time to time, and complies
with requirements set forth by the laws of the State of New York. If the
Contract is owned by a trust or other non-natural person, We will treat the
death of any Annuitant as the death of the "Primary Annuitant" and as the death
of any Owner.
11
DUE PROOF OF DEATH
Due Proof of Death means:
1. a certified copy of a death certificate; or
2. a certified copy of a decree of a court of competent jurisdiction
as to the finding of death; or
3. a written statement by a medical doctor who attended the deceased
Owner at the time of death; or
4. any other proof satisfactory to Us.
DEATH OF OWNER BEFORE THE ANNUITY DATE
We will pay a death benefit to the Beneficiary upon Our receiving all Required
Documentation. Unless You have previously designated a payment option on behalf
of the Beneficiary, the Beneficiary must select one of the following options:
1. Immediately collect the death benefit in a lump sum payment. If a
lump sum payment is elected, payment will be in accordance with
any applicable laws and regulations governing payments on death;
or
2. Collect the death benefit in the form of one of the Annuity
Payment Options. If an Annuity Payment Option is desired, an
option must be elected within 60 days of Our receipt of: (a) Due
Proof of Death of the Owner; (b) an election form specifying the
payment option and (c) any other documentation We may require.
The payments must be over the life of the Beneficiary or over a
period not extending beyond the life expectancy of the
Beneficiary. Payments under this option must commence within one
year after the Owner's death, otherwise, the death benefit will
be paid in accordance with option 1 above; or
3. If eligible, continue the Contract as the Spousal Beneficiary. On
the Continuation Date, We will contribute to the Contract any
amount by which the death benefit exceeds the Contract Value,
calculated as of the Owner's date of death. This amount is not
considered a Purchase Payment except in the calculation of
certain death benefits upon the death of the Spousal Beneficiary.
If this option is elected, no death benefit is paid.
Upon the Spousal Beneficiary's death, the entire interest of the Contract must
be distributed immediately under option 1 or 2 as provided under DEATH OF OWNER
BEFORE THE ANNUITY DATE
AMOUNT OF DEATH BENEFIT
If the Owner was age 82 or younger on the Contract Date, upon Our receipt of all
Required Documentation at Our Annuity Service Center, We will calculate the
death benefit and it will be the greater of:
(1) The Contract Value as of the later of (a) the date of death of the
Owner and (b) the NYSE business day during which We receive all
Required Documentation at Our Annuity Service Center; or
(2) Net Purchase Payment(s) received prior to the Owner's 86th birthday.
NOTE: In declining market environments, the death benefit payable may be
less than the Net Purchase Payments received.
12
SPOUSAL BENEFICIARY CONTINUATION
If the Spousal Beneficiary was age 82 or younger on the Continuation Date, upon
Our receipt of all Required Documentation at Our Annuity Service Center, We will
calculate the death benefit and it will be the greater of:
(1) The Contract Value as of the later of (a) the date of death of the
Spousal Beneficiary and (b) the NYSE business day during which We
receive all Required Documentation at Our Annuity Service Center; or
(2) The Contract Value on the Continuation Date, and a Death Benefit
Adjustment for Purchase Payment(s) transacted after the Continuation
Date but prior to the Spousal Beneficiary's 86th birthday and/or
Withdrawals transacted after the Continuation Date.
If the Spousal Beneficiary was age 83 or older on the Continuation Date, the
death benefit will be the Contract Value as of the later of (a) the date of
death of the Spousal Beneficiary and (b) the NYSE business day during which We
receive all Required Documentation at Our Annuity Service Center.
The death benefit payable will accrue interest at Our current rate from the date
of death to the date the death benefit is distributed.
In any event, the entire interest in the Contract will be distributed within
five years from the date of Owner's death.
DEATH OF OWNER OR ANNUITANT ON OR AFTER THE ANNUITY DATE
If any Owner or Annuitant dies on or after the Annuity Date and before the
entire interest in the Contract has been distributed, We will pay the remaining
portion of the annuity payout to the Beneficiary upon Our receipt of Required
Documentation. For further information pertaining to death of the Annuitant, see
ANNUITY PAYMENT OPTIONS.
BENEFICIARY
The Beneficiary is selected by the Owner. While the Owner is living and before
the Annuity Date, the Owner may change the Beneficiary by written notice in a
form satisfactory to Us. A change in Beneficiary will take effect on the date
the notice is signed by the Owner, subject to any action We have taken before
receipt of such notice. If two or more persons are named as Beneficiaries under
the Contract, those surviving the Owner will share equally unless otherwise
stated; and each must elect to receive their respective portions of the death
benefit according to the options listed under DEATH OF OWNER BEFORE THE ANNUITY
DATE. If the Annuitant survives the Owner, and there are no surviving
Beneficiaries, the Annuitant will be deemed the Beneficiary.
Joint Owners, if applicable, shall be each other's primary Beneficiary. Joint
Annuitants, if any, when the Owner is a non-natural person, shall be each
other's primary Beneficiary. Any other Beneficiary designation will be treated
as a contingent Beneficiary.
If the Owner is also the Annuitant and dies before the Annuity Date, with no
surviving Beneficiaries, upon Our receipt of all Required Documentation we will
calculate the death benefit, and we will pay the death benefit to the estate of
the Owner in accordance with option 1, under DEATH OF OWNER BEFORE THE ANNUITY
DATE.

ANNUITY PROVISIONS
ANNUITY DATE
The Owner specifies an anticipated Annuity Date on the Application. The Owner
may change the Annuity Date at any time, at least seven days prior to the
Annuity Date, by written notice to the Company at its Annuity Service Center.
The Annuity Date must always be the first day of the calendar month and must be
at least thirteen (13) months after the Contract Date, but not beyond the Latest
Annuity Date. If no Annuity Date is specified on the Application, the Annuity
Date will be the Latest Annuity Date, as set by the Company.
PAYMENTS TO OWNER
Unless You request otherwise, We will make annuity payments to You. If You want
the annuity payments to be made to some other Payee, We will make such payments
subject to receipt of a written request filed at the Annuity Service Center no
later than thirty (30) days before the due date of the first annuity payment.
All payments will comply with the laws of the State of New York.
Any such request is subject to the rights of any assignee. No payments available
to or being paid to the Payee while the Annuitant is alive can be transferred,
commuted, anticipated or encumbered.
BETTERMENT OF RATES
The amount of the Owner's monthly payment will be at least equal to the monthly
payment produced by the application of an amount equal to the Contract Value of
this Contract to purchase any single consideration immediate annuity contract
offered by the Company at the same time to the same class of annuitants. We are
not currently offering any single premium immediate annuity contracts.
FIXED ANNUITIZATION
If a Fixed Annuitization has been elected, the Contract Value, less any
applicable premium taxes, shall be applied to the payment of the fixed annuity
payment option elected at rates which are at least equal to the annuity rates
based upon the applicable tables in the Contract. In no event will the Fixed
Annuitization be changed once it begins.
AMOUNT OF FIXED ANNUITY PAYMENTS
The amount of each fixed annuity payment will be determined by applying the
portion of the Contract Value allocated by You for Fixed Annuitization, less any
applicable premium taxes, to the annuity table applicable to the fixed annuity
payment option chosen.
AMOUNT OF VARIABLE ANNUITY PAYMENTS
(a) FIRST VARIABLE ANNUITY PAYMENT: The dollar amount of the first Variable
Annuitization payment will be determined by applying the portion of the
Contract Value allocated to the Variable Portfolio(s), less any applicable
premium taxes, to rates which are at least equal to the annuity rates based
upon the annuity table applicable to the variable annuity payment option
chosen. If the Contract Value is allocated to more than one Variable
Portfolio, the value of Your interest in each Variable Portfolio is applied
separately to the variable annuity payment option table to determine the
amount of the first annuity payment attributable to each Variable
Portfolio.
(b) NUMBER OF VARIABLE ANNUITY UNITS: The number of Annuity Units for each
applicable Variable Portfolio is the amount of the first annuity payment
attributable to that Variable Portfolio divided by the value of the
applicable Annuity Unit for that Variable Portfolio as of the Annuity Date.
The number will not change as a result of investment experience.
14
(c) VALUE OF EACH VARIABLE ANNUITY UNIT: The value of an Annuity Unit may
increase or decrease from one month to the next. For any month, the value
of an Annuity Unit of a particular Variable Portfolio is the value of that
Annuity Unit as of the last NYSE business day of the preceding month,
multiplied by the Net Investment Factor for that Variable Portfolio for the
last NYSE business day of the current month.
The Net Investment Factor for any Variable Portfolio for a certain month is
determined by dividing (1) by (2) and multiplying by (3) where:
(1) is the Annuity Unit Value of the Variable Portfolio determined as
of the last business day at the end of that month,
(2) is the Annuity Unit Value of the Variable Portfolio determined as
of the last business day at the end of the preceding month., and
(3) is a factor that neutralizes the assumed investment rate of 3.5%
per annum upon which the annuity payment tables are based. The
monthly factor that neutralizes the assumed investment rate of
3.5% per annum is: 1/1.035(1/12)=0.99713732.
(d) SUBSEQUENT VARIABLE ANNUITY PAYMENTS: After the first Variable
Annuitization payment future payments will vary in amount according to the
investment performance of the applicable Variable Portfolio(s) to which
Your Purchase Payments are allocated. The amount may change from month to
month. The amount of each subsequent payment for each Variable Portfolio
is:
The number of Annuity Units for each Variable Portfolio as determined for the
first annuity payment
Multiplied by
The value of an Annuity Unit for that Variable Portfolio at the end of the month
immediately preceding the month in which payment is due.
We guarantee that the amount of each Variable Annuitization payment will not be
affected by variations in expenses or mortality experience.
GENERAL PROVISIONS
ENTIRE CONTRACT
The Entire Contract between You and Us consists of this Contract, the
Application completed by You and attached to this Contract, and any attached
endorsement(s) or rider(s). An agent cannot change the terms or conditions of
this Contract. Any change must be in writing and approved by Us. Only Our
President, Secretary, or one of Our Vice-Presidents can give Our approval.
CHANGE OF ANNUITANT
If the Owner is an individual, the Owner may change the Annuitant(s) at any time
prior to the Annuity Date. To make a change, the Owner must send a written
notice to Us at least 30 days before the Annuity Date. The change will become
effective on the date the notice is signed by the Owner, subject to any action
We have taken before receipt of such notice. If the Owner is a non-natural
person, the Owner may not change the Annuitant.
15
DEATH OF ANNUITANT
If the natural Owner and Annuitant are different, and the Annuitant dies before
the Annuity Date, the Owner becomes the Annuitant until the Owner elects a new
Annuitant. If there are Joint Annuitants, upon the death of any Annuitant prior
to the Annuity Date, the Owner may elect a new Joint Annuitant. However, if the
Owner is a non-natural person, We will treat the death of any Annuitant as the
death of the "Primary Annuitant" and as the death of the Owner, see DEATH
PROVISIONS.
MISSTATEMENT OF AGE OR SEX
If the Age or sex of any Annuitant has been misstated, future annuity payments
will be adjusted using the correct Age and sex, according to Our rates in effect
on the date that annuity payments were determined. Any overpayment, plus
interest at the rate of 4% per year, will be deducted from the next payment(s)
due. Any underpayment, plus interest at the rate of 4% per year, will be paid in
full with the next payment due.
PROOF OF AGE, SEX, OR SURVIVAL
The Company may require satisfactory proof of correct Age or sex at any time. If
any payment under this Contract depends on the Annuitant being alive, the
Company may require satisfactory proof of survival.
DEFERMENT OF PAYMENTS
We may defer making payments from the available Fixed Account Options for up to
six (6) months. Interest, subject to state requirements, will be credited during
the deferral period.
SUSPENSION OF PAYMENTS
We may suspend or postpone any payments from the Variable Portfolios if any of
the following occur:
(a) the NYSE is closed;
(b) trading on the NYSE is restricted;
(c) an emergency exists such that it is not reasonably practical to dispose of
securities in the Variable Portfolios or to determine the value of its
assets; or
(d) the Securities and Exchange Commission, by order, so permits for the
protection of Owners. Conditions in (b) and (c) will be decided by or in
accordance with rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission.
CONFORMITY WITH STATE LAWS
The provisions of this Contract will be interpreted by the laws of the State of
New York, the state in which this Contract is delivered. Any provision which, on
the Contract Date, is in conflict with the law of such state is amended to
conform to the minimum requirements of such law.
CHANGES IN LAW
If the laws governing this Contract or the taxation of benefits under the
Contract change, We will amend this Contract, subject to New York Insurance
Department approval, to comply with any changes.
ASSIGNMENT
You may assign this Contract before the Annuity Date, but We will not be bound
by an assignment unless it is received by Us in writing. Your rights and those
of any other person referred to in this Contract will be subject to the
assignment. Certain assignments may be taxable. We do not assume any
responsibility for the validity or tax consequences of any assignment. We
reserve the right to not recognize assignments if it changes the risk profile of
the Owner of the Contract as determined in Our sole discretion.
16
CLAIMS OF CREDITORS
To the extent permitted by law, no right or proceeds payable under this Contract
will be subject to claims of creditors or legal process.
PREMIUM TAXES OR OTHER TAXES
The Company may deduct from Your Contract Value any premium tax or other taxes
payable to a state or other government entity, if applicable. Should We advance
any amount so due, We are not waiving any right to collect such amount at a
later date. The Company will deduct any withholding taxes required by applicable
law.

unless You request otherwise. Any written request or notice to Us must be sent
to Our Annuity Service Center, as specified on the Contract Data Page.
PERIODIC REPORTS
At least once during each Contract Year, We will send You a statement of the
account activity of the Contract. The statement will include all transactions
which have occurred during the accounting period shown on the statement.
INCONTESTABILITY
This Contract shall be incontestable after it has been in force for a period of
two years from the Contract Date during Your lifetime or during the lifetimes of
each of the persons who are required to provide Us with information concerning
their age, sex and identity. The incontestability of this Contract applies to
any statements You make, except as otherwise stated in the Misstatement of Age
or Sex provision. Accurate statements as to Your age, sex and identity are
required as a condition of issuing this Contract.
NONPARTICIPATING
This Contract does not share in Our surplus.
WAIVER

deemed to constitute waiver of the right to enforce strict compliance.
