Spousal Continuation means the Owner’s spouse may choose to continue the Certificate in lieu of selecting payment of the Death Benefit in the event of the Owner’s death. To accomplish Spousal Continuation as defined in the Contract, the Certificate must be structured as follows: (1) Owner and Annuitant must be the same person; (2) the spouse must be named as the sole Owner’s and Xxxxxxxxx’s Beneficiary; (3) no Contingent Annuitant is named; and (4) in the case of Joint Owners, the surviving spouse must be named as the Owner’s Beneficiary. If the Owner’s Beneficiary is a Spousal Beneficiary and the Certificate is structured as described above, the Spousal Beneficiary may choose Spousal Continuation. The Certificate continues in the name of the Spousal Beneficiary as both Owner and Annuitant. The Spousal Beneficiary may exercise all rights and privileges allowed by this Certificate, including the right to name a new Owner or Owner’s Beneficiary, and Xxxxxxxxx’s Beneficiary who will receive the Death Benefit upon the continuing Spouse’s death. Once Spousal Continuation is in effect, if the original Spousal Beneficiary remarries and designates the new spouse as the new Owner’s Beneficiary, the new spouse will be considered a Nonspousal Beneficiary for distribution purposes. Spousal Continuation is processed when the required election form is received from the Spousal Beneficiary in accordance with our administrative rules then in effect.
