GUARANTEED MINIMUM DEATH BENEFIT ("GMDB") AMOUNT - The GMDB Amount will be calculated only when a death benefit becomes payable as a result of the death of the sole Annuitant, and is determined as follows: First, we calculate what the Death Benefit Amount would have been as of the first Contract Anniversary and each subsequent Contract Anniversary that occurs while the Annuitant is living and before the Annuitant reaches his or her 81st birthday (each of these Contract Anniversaries is a "Milestone Date"). We then adjust the Death Benefit Amount for each Milestone Date by: (i) adding the aggregate amount of any Purchase Payments received by us since that Milestone Date; (ii) subtracting an amount for each withdrawal that has occurred since that Milestone date, which is calculated by multiplying the Death Benefit Amount by the ratio of the amount of each withdrawal that has occurred since that Milestone Date, including any withdrawal charge, to the Contract Value immediately prior to the withdrawal; and (iii) subtracting the aggregate amount of any previous charges, fees, and/or taxes, since that Milestone Date.
