Death Benefit Should Employee die during the term of employment, the Company shall pay to Employee's estate any compensation due through the end of the month in which death occurred.
Actuarial Equivalent The Actuarial Equivalent of the payments from the SERP determined under that Plan and this subsection shall be determined by taking into account the reduction for early commencement of benefits imposed by that Plan and by using reasonable actuarial assumptions. For purposes of determining the lump sum actuarial equivalent, the corresponding actuarial assumptions provided in the Retirement Plan (or, to the extent not provided in that Plan, as provided under GATT) shall be used.

JOINT AND LAST SURVIVOR ANNUITY We will make Annuity Payments, payable at the frequency elected, during the joint lifetime of the Annuitant and the Joint Annuitant. Upon the death of either the Annuitant or Joint Annuitant, Annuity Payments will continue to be paid during the remaining lifetime of the survivor. Annuity Payments cease with the final Annuity Payment due prior to the last survivor's death.

Upon the death of either the Annuitant or Joint Annuitant, Annuity Payments will continue to be paid during the remaining lifetime of the survivor.

You may elect to have the present value of the guaranteed Variable Annuity Payments remaining, as of the date due proof of the Annuitant's death is received at our Annuity Service Office, commuted at the Assumed Investment Return selected. We will require the return of this Contract and proof of death prior to the payment of any commuted values. ANNUITY -- You can elect to have the Annuity Option payable as Fixed Annuity Payments or Variable Annuity Payments or a combination. Fixed Annuity Payments are guaranteed as to dollar amount. Variable Annuity Payments will reflect the investment experience of the Separate Account in accordance with the allocation of the Account Value to the Subaccounts. Unless another payee is designated, you will be the payee of the Annuity Payments. The Adjusted Account Value will be applied to the applicable Fixed and/or Variable Annuity Tables to determine your first Annuity Payment. The Adjusted Account Value is determined on the Annuity Calculation Date which is a Business Day no more than five Business Days prior to the Annuity Date. The Adjusted Account Value is the Account Value, less any Premium and Other Taxes or other applicable taxes and less the Account Fee. The amount of the first payment for each $1,000 of Adjusted Account Value is shown in the Annuity Tables. FIXED ANNUITY -- Fixed Annuity Payments are based upon the Annuity Option elected, the Annuitant's Attained Age and sex, and the appropriate Fixed Annuity Option Table. If, as of the Annuity Calculation Date, the then-current Fixed Annuity Option rates applicable to this class of contracts provide an Annuity Payment greater than that which is guaranteed under the same Annuity Option under this Contract, then the greater payment will be made. The dollar amount of the first Variable Annuity Payment is determined as follows. The first Variable Annuity Payment will be based upon the Annuity Option elected, the Annuitant's Attained Age and sex, and the appropriate Variable Annuity Option Table. If, as of the Annuity Calculation Date, the then current Variable Annuity Option rates applicable to this class of Contracts provide a first Annuity Payment greater than that which is guaranteed under the same Annuity Option under this Contract, the greater payment will be made.
