Fixed Maturity Option will apply separately with respect to each Participant's Annuity Account Value. An Employer's request to withdraw the vested portion of the Annuity Account Value from a Participant's account is subject to Equitable's receipt of the Participant's written consent. Subject to the terms of the Plan and the restrictions on distributions stated in Section 5.01, Equitable reserves the right to terminate a Participant's participation under this Contract by paying the Annuity Account Value to the Participant. This right will be exercised only if (i) no initial Contributions have been received on the Participant's behalf within 120 days of the Participation Date under this Contract, (ii) there have been no on-going Contributions received on behalf of the Participant during the last three completed Participation Years, and the Annuity Account Value is less than [$500], or (iii) a partial withdrawal is made that would result in the Participant's Annuity Account Value falling below [$500].
