DEFINITION OF TERMS
Account Value - The amount of the Contract Value allocated to any one of the
Investment Options.
Add-In Amount - The amount added by us, if applicable, to the Contract Value on
the Notice Date to set the Contract Value equal to the death benefit proceeds

deceased Owner was also the sole surviving Annuitant.
Age - The Owner's or Annuitant's age, as applicable, at his or her last
birthday.
Annuitant - The person you name on whose life annuity payments may be
determined. An Annuitant's life may also be used to determine certain increases
in death benefits and to determine the Annuity Date. If you designate Joint
Annuitants or a Contingent Annuitant, "Annuitant" means the sole surviving
Annuitant, unless otherwise stated. Any named Annuitant, Joint Annuitant, or
Contingent Annuitant must be under Age 86 as of the Contract Date. If the
Contract is a Non-Qualified Contract, you cannot change the Annuitant or change
or add a Joint Annuitant. If the Contract is a Qualified Contract, you may add a
Joint Annuitant only on the Annuity Date.
Annuity Date ("Annuity Start Date") - The date shown in the Contract
Specifications, or the date you later elect, if any, for the start of annuity
payments if the Annuitant is still living and the Contract is in force; or if
earlier, the date that annuity payments actually begin.

Annuity Date.
Beneficiary - The person you name who may receive any death benefit proceeds or
any remaining annuity benefits in accordance with the provisions of this
Contract.
Business Day - Any day on which the value of an amount invested in a Subaccount
is required to be determined by applicable law which currently includes each day
that both the New York Stock Exchange is open for trading and our administrative
offices are open. If any transaction or event under this Contract is scheduled
to occur on a day that does not exist in a given calendar period, or on a day
that is not a Business Day, such transaction or event will be deemed to occur on
the next following Business Day, unless otherwise stated.
Calendar Year - A one-year period beginning January 1 and ending December 31.
Code - The Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended.
Contingent Annuitant - The person, if any, you select to become the Annuitant if
the Annuitant dies before the Annuity Date. You may add or change the Contingent
Annuitant prior to the Annuity Date provided the Contingent Annuitant is not the
sole surviving Annuitant. Any Contingent Annuitant you name must be under Age 86
as of the Contract Date. If you add or change a Contingent Annuitant after the
Contract is issued, any newly-named or added Contingent Annuitant must be under
Age 86 at the time of such change or addition.
Contingent Beneficiary - The person, if any, you select to become the
Beneficiary if the Beneficiary dies.

Owner of this Contract if all named Owners die.

Date.

Specifications. Contract Years, Contract Anniversaries, Contract Semiannual

outstanding on any loan under this Contract, plus any accrued and unpaid
interest.
Contract Value - As of the end of any Business Day, the Contract Value is equal

of death and instructions satisfactory to us regarding payment of death benefit
proceeds.
Owner - The person(s) who has (have) all rights under this Contract. If the
Contract names two Owners, Owner means both Owners ("Joint Owners"). If there
are Joint Owners, the Contract will be owned by the Joint Owners as Joint
Tenants With Right of Survivorship and not as Tenants in Common. Any named Owner
or Contingent Owner must be under Age 86 as of the Contract Date. If the
Contract allows you to change or add Owners after the Contract is issued, any
newly-named or added Owners, including Joint and/or Contingent Owners, must be
under Age 86 at the time of such change or addition.

Subaccount - An investment division of the Separate Account. Each Subaccount, (a
"Variable Investment Option" or "Variable Account") invests its assets in a
separate series or class of shares of a designated investment company.
5
Subaccount Annuity Unit ("Annuity Units") - Annuity Units are used to measure
variation in variable annuity payments. The amount of each variable annuity
payment (after the first payment) will vary with the value and number of the
Annuity Units in each Subaccount.
Subaccount Unit - Subaccount Units are used to measure the Variable Account
Value in that Subaccount.
Unit Value - The value of a Subaccount Unit ("Subaccount Unit Value") or
Subaccount Annuity Unit ("Subaccount Annuity Unit Value"). The Unit Value of any
Subaccount is subject to change on any Business Day. The fluctuations in value
reflect investment results and daily deductions for the mortality and expense
risk charge and administrative fee. Changes in Subaccount Annuity Unit Values
also reflect an additional adjustment factor that corrects for an assumed
investment return. The Unit Value of a Subaccount Unit and of a Subaccount
Annuity Unit are determined each Business Day.
Variable Account ("Variable Investment Option") - A Subaccount of the Separate
Account or any of the Company's separate account which is available under this
Contract in which our assets are segregated from the assets held in our General
Account and from the assets held in any of our other separate accounts.

the Variable Accounts.

GENERAL PROVISIONS
Report to Owner(s) - At least once per year prior to the Annuity Date, we will
provide you with a report that will show the Contract Value, any Purchase
Payments received, loan repayments, transfers, withdrawals, applicable
withdrawal charges and/or charges and/or fees incurred since the last report,
and any other information that may be required. After the Annuity Date, we will
provide you with any information that may be required.
Payments, Instructions and Requests - Unless this Contract provides otherwise,
all Purchase Payments, loan repayments, instructions and requests must be
received in a form satisfactory to us at our Service Center. Any subsequent
Purchase Payments, loan repayments and requests for loans, transfers or
withdrawals received by us on any Business Day usually will be processed the
same Business Day, unless the transaction or event is scheduled to occur on
another day.
Generally, all other instructions and requests normally will be effective as of
the end of the Business Day following the day such instructions and requests are
received, in a form satisfactory to us, unless the transaction or event is
scheduled to occur on another day. We may require that you provide signature
guarantees or other safeguards for any instruction, request or other document
you may send to our Service Center. You acknowledge and agree that we will not
be liable for any loss, liability, cost or expense of any kind or character for
acting on instructions or requests submitted to us that we reasonably believe to
be genuine.
Entire Contract - This Contract, the attached application or confirmation
thereof, any subsequent applications to change this Contract or confirmation
thereof, and any attached riders and endorsements, constitute the entire
Contract, and supersede any and all prior agreements, whether oral or written,
about the terms of this Contract and the application. All statements made in the
application are representations and not warranties.
Contract Modifications - Modifications to this Contract or any waiver of our
rights or requirements under this Contract can only be made if in writing by an
authorized officer of the Company. This Contract is intended to qualify as an
annuity contract for federal income tax purposes. In addition, if this Contract
is a Qualified Contract, this Contract is intended to qualify as part of a
Qualified Plan. To that end, the provisions of this Contract are to be
interpreted and administered to ensure or maintain such tax qualification,
notwithstanding any other provisions to the contrary. We reserve the right to
amend this Contract without the Owner's consent (except for the states of
Michigan, Oregon, Pennsylvania, South Carolina and Washington, where Owner's
consent is required) and/or our administrative procedures to reflect any
clarifications that may be needed or are appropriate to maintain its tax
qualification or to conform this Contract to any applicable changes in the tax
qualification requirements.
Basis of Values - A detailed statement showing how values are determined has
been filed with the state insurance departments. All values and reserves are at
least equal to those required by the laws of the state in which this Contract is
delivered.
Claims of Creditors - The Contract Value and other benefits under this Contract
are exempt from the claims of creditors to the extent permitted by law.
Removal of Beneficiary, Contingent Annuitant or Contingent Owner - You may
remove a Beneficiary (other than an irrevocable Beneficiary), Contingent
Annuitant or a Contingent Owner from this Contract by providing proper written
instructions to our Service Center.
Ownership - This Contract belongs to the Owner. The Owner is entitled to
exercise all rights available under this Contract. If this Contract names two
Owners, both Owners must join in any request to exercise these rights. The Owner
may exercise these rights without the consent of the Beneficiary (other than any
irrevocable Beneficiary) or any other person, except as otherwise required by
law.
7
Assignment - You may assign all rights and benefits under this Contract before
the Annuity Date. We are not bound by any assignment until we have received at
our Service Center written notice satisfactory to us and we record the
assignment. We are not responsible for the validity of any assignment. If the
Contract has been absolutely assigned, the assignee becomes the Owner. You
should consult with your tax adviser to determine the tax consequences of an
assignment before taking any action.
Delay of Payments - Generally, withdrawals, transfers, or exchange requests will
be made within seven (7) days from receipt of the requested withdrawal,
transfer, or exchange, in a form satisfactory to us. Payment of any withdrawal,
transfer or exchange to or from a Variable Account may be delayed after our
receipt of the requested withdrawal, transfer, or exchange under certain
circumstances. These include:
. a closing of the New York Stock Exchange other than on a regular holiday
or weekend;
. a trading restriction by the SEC; or
. an emergency declared by the SEC.
We may delay payments or transfers from our General Account (which would include
payment of the withdrawal proceeds, loans, fixed annuity payments and lump sum
death benefit payments, unless state law requires otherwise) for up to six (6)
months after the requested effective date of the transaction. Any amount
delayed, so long as it is held under the General Account, will earn interest at
a minimum annual rate of 3%. If you make any Purchase Payment by check, other
than a cashier's check, we may delay making payments to you until your check has
cleared.
Incontestability - After this Contract has been issued, we will not contest the
validity of this Contract other than for misstatement of age, sex or identity.
Misstatement of Age and/or Sex - We may require proof of the Annuitant's or
Owner's Age and/or sex before any payments associated with the death benefit
proceeds are made. If the Age and/or sex of the Annuitant or Owner is
incorrectly stated, we will base any such payment associated with the death
benefit proceeds on the Annuitant's or Owner's correct Age and/or sex.
We may require proof of the Annuitant's Age and/or sex before starting annuity
payments. If the Age and/or sex (or both) of the Annuitant is incorrectly
stated, we will correct the amount payable, based upon the Annuitant's correct
Age and/or sex, if applicable. If we make the correction after annuity payments
have started and we have made overpayments, we will deduct the amount of the
overpayment, with interest at 3% per year, from any payments due then or later.
If we have made underpayments, we will add the amount, with interest at 3% per
year, of the underpayments to the next payment we make after we receive proof of
the correct Age and/or sex.
Proof of Life or Death - Before we make a payment, we have the right to require
proof of the life or death of any person on whose life or death determines
whether, to whom, or how much we must pay any benefits under this Contract.
Withholding Taxes - We reserve the right to withhold from all payments made or
deemed made under this Contract, any taxes required to be withheld by applicable
federal or state law, unless the Owner or payee elects otherwise pursuant to
applicable withholding rules.
Non-Participating - This Contract is classified as a non-participating contract.
It does not participate in our profits or surplus, and therefore no dividends
are payable.
8
PURCHASE PAYMENTS
Initial Purchase Payment - This Contract will not be in force until we receive
at our Service Center the Initial Purchase Payment. The Initial Purchase Payment
is shown in the Contract Specifications.
Additional Purchase Payments - You may make additional Purchase Payments at any
time before the Annuity Date, while the Annuitant is living and this Contract is
in force. Each additional Purchase Payment must be at least $250 for
Non-Qualified Contracts and $50 for Qualified Contracts. We may limit the amount
of any single Purchase Payment. You must obtain our consent before making a
Purchase Payment that will bring the aggregate Purchase Payments over the
Maximum Purchase Payment amount shown in the Contract Specifications.
Purchase Payments are payable in U.S. dollars either at our Service Center or
through our agent. Checks should be made payable to Pacific Life Insurance
Company. If you make Purchase Payments by check other than a cashier's check,
withdrawal payments and any refund under the Right to Cancel provision may be
delayed until your check has cleared. On request, a receipt for the Purchase
Payment signed by an officer of the Company will be provided after payment.
Purchase Payment Allocation - Prior to the Annuity Date, you may allocate all or
part of Purchase Payments to one or more of the Investment Options available
under this Contract. The Investment Options available on the Contract Date are
shown in the Contract Specifications.
You may change the Purchase Payment allocation by providing us with instructions
in a form satisfactory to us. We will allocate any Purchase Payment according to
your most recent allocation instructions. We may reject any instruction or
Purchase Payment if your instructions are not clear and we cannot determine your
allocation instructions.
Allocations During the Right to Cancel Period - We will allocate the Initial
Purchase Payment in accordance with your most recent allocation instructions.
Minimum Investment Option Value - We reserve the right to require that, as a
result of any allocation to an Investment Option, any transfer, or any
withdrawal, your remaining Account Value in any Investment Option must be at
least $500. We also reserve the right to transfer any remaining Account Value
that does not meet such minimum amount to your other Investment Options on a pro
rata basis relative to your most recent allocation instructions for those
Investment Options.
9
VARIABLE INVESTMENT OPTIONS
Variable Investment Options - The Variable Investment Options consist of
Subaccounts of the Separate Account. The available Subaccounts as of the
Contract Date are shown in the Contract Specifications.
Separate Account - We established and maintain the Separate Account under the
laws of the state of California. Any income, gains or losses (whether or not
realized) from the assets of each Variable Account are credited or charged
against such Variable Account without regard to our other income, gains or
losses. Assets may be put in our Separate Account to support this Contract and
other variable annuity contracts. Assets may be put in our Separate Account for
other purposes, but not to support contracts other than variable annuity
contracts. The assets of our Separate Account are our property. The portion of
the Separate Account assets equal to the reserves and other Contract liabilities
with respect to each Variable Account will not be chargeable with liabilities
arising out of any other business we conduct. We may transfer assets of a
separate account in excess of the reserves and other liabilities with respect to
its Variable Accounts to another separate account or to our General Account. All
obligations arising under the Contract are our general corporate obligations. We
do not hold ourselves out to be trustees of the Separate Account assets.
We reserve the right, subject to compliance with the law then in effect, and
after any required regulatory approval, to:
. cease offering any Subaccount;
. add or change designated investment companies or their portfolios, or
other investment vehicles;
. add, delete or make substitutions for the securities and other assets
that are held or purchased by the Separate Account or any Variable
Account;
. permit conversion or exchanges between portfolios and/or classes of
contracts on the basis of Owners' requests;
. add, remove or combine Variable Accounts;
. combine the assets of any Variable Account with any of our other Separate
Accounts or of any of our affiliates;
. register or deregister Separate Account A or any Variable Account under
the 1940 Act;
. operate any Variable Account as a managed investment company under the
1940 Act, or any other form permitted by law;
. run any Variable Account under the direction of a committee, board, or
other group;
. restrict or eliminate any voting rights of Owners with respect to
any Variable Account or other persons who have voting rights as to any
Variable Account;
. make any changes required by the 1940 Act or other federal securities
laws;
. make any changes necessary to maintain the status of the Contracts as
annuities under the Code;
. make other changes required under federal or state law relating to
annuities;
. suspend or discontinue sale of the Contracts; and
. comply with applicable law.
If any of these changes result in a material change in the underlying
investments of a Variable Account, we will notify you of such change.
We will not change the investment policy of the Separate Account without
following the filing and other procedures of the Insurance Commissioner in the
State of California and the filing and other procedures established by insurance
regulators of the state of delivery. Unless required by law or regulation, an
investment policy may not be changed without our consent.
From time to time we may make other Investment Options available to you. Any new
Investment Option may invest in portfolios of the designated investment company,
other designated investment companies or their portfolios, or in other
investment vehicles. New Investment Options will be made available to existing
Owners at our discretion. We will provide you with written notice of all
material details, including investment objectives and charges. We will comply
with the filing or other procedures established by applicable state insurance
regulators, to the extent required by applicable law.
10
CONTRACT VALUES
Contract Value - The Contract Value on any Business Day is the sum of:
. the Variable Account Value; plus
. the Loan Account Value.
We generally determine values on each day that the New York Stock Exchange is
open, provided our administrative offices are also open on that day.
Variable Account Value - The Variable Account Value on any Business Day is the
sum of the Subaccount Values on that day.
Subaccount Value - Each Subaccount Value on any Business Day is equal to the
number of Subaccount Units in that Subaccount multiplied by the Unit Value of
the Subaccount on that day.
We credit the Subaccount with Subaccount Units as a result of any:
. Purchase Payments received by us and allocated to that Subaccount; and
. transfers to that Subaccount, including transfers from the Loan Account.
We debit the Subaccount with Subaccount Units as a result of any:
. transfers, including transfers to the Loan Account;
. withdrawals, including any applicable withdrawal charges;
. withdrawal fees;
. amounts applied to provide an annuity;
. annual fees; and
. charges for premium taxes and/or other taxes.
The number of Subaccount Units we credit to, or debit from, a Subaccount in
connection with a transaction is equal to the amount of the transaction
applicable to that Subaccount divided by that Subaccount's Unit Value at the end
of the valuation period that includes that day. The number of Subaccount Units
in a Subaccount will change only if we credit or debit Subaccount Units for the
transactions specified above. The number of Subaccount Units will not change
because of subsequent changes in the Subaccount Unit Value.
Subaccount Unit Value - The initial Unit Value of each Subaccount was $10 on the
Business Day the Subaccount began operations. At the end of each subsequent
Business Day, the Unit Value for each Subaccount is equal to (Y) times (Z),
where:
(Y) is the Unit Value for that Subaccount as of the end of the prior
Business Day; and
(Z) is the Net Investment Factor for that Subaccount for the period (a
"valuation period") between the prior Business Day and that Business Day.
Net Investment Factor - Each Subaccount's Net Investment Factor for any
valuation period is equal to (A / B) - C, where:
(A) equals:
(a) the net asset value per share of the corresponding portfolio shares
held by the Subaccount as of the end of that valuation period; plus
(b) the per share amount of any dividend or capital gain distributions
made during that valuation period on the portfolio shares held by
the Subaccount; plus or minus
11
(c) any per share charge or credit for any income taxes, other taxes,
or amounts set aside during that valuation period as a reserve for
any income and/or any other taxes for which we determine to have
resulted from the operations of the Subaccount or Contract, and/or
any taxes attributable, directly or indirectly, to Purchase
Payments;
(B) is the net asset value per share of the portfolio shares held by the
Subaccount as of the end of the prior valuation period; and
(C) is a factor that we assess against the Subaccount's net assets held by
each Subaccount for the mortality and expense risk charge and the
administrative fee during that valuation period.
Loan Account Value - For Qualified Contracts that permit loans, the Loan Account
Value as of the end of any Business Day is the Loan Account Value on the prior
Business Day, increased by any:
. interest; plus
. Contract Value loaned on that day;
and decreased by any:
. loan principal repaid; plus
. earned interest transferred from the Loan Account on that day.
12
CHARGES, FEES AND DEDUCTIONS
Administrative Fee - We charge an administrative fee against the assets held in
the Variable Investment Option(s). This fee is assessed daily at the annual rate
which is shown in the Contract Specifications. This fee is guaranteed not to
increase.
Annual Fee - We charge an annual fee against the Contract Value on each Contract
Anniversary prior to the Annuity Date, and at the time you withdraw the entire
Net Contract Value (on a prorated basis for the current Contract Year). The
annual fee is shown in the Contract Specifications. This fee is guaranteed not
to increase. The annual fee is waived if, on any Contract Anniversary prior to
the Annuity Date, or at the time you make a full withdrawal, the Net Contract
Value is $50,000 or more on that date.
We will not impose the annual fee on amounts applied to provide an annuity or on
payment of the death benefit proceeds.
Mortality and Expense Risk Charge ("Risk Charge") - We impose a Risk Charge
against the assets held in the Variable Investment Option(s). This charge is
assessed daily at the annual rate which is shown in the Contract Specifications.
The Risk Charge compensates us for the risks we assume that mortality and
expenses will vary from those we assumed. This charge is guaranteed not to
increase.
Premium Taxes - From the Contract Value, we will deduct a charge for any taxes
we pay that are attributable to Purchase Payments or withdrawals. Such taxes may
include, but are not limited to: any federal, state or local premium or
retaliatory taxes; and any federal, state or local income, excise, business or
any other type of tax (or component thereof), measured by or based upon,
directly or indirectly, the amount of Purchase Payments we receive from you. We
will normally deduct this charge when you annuitize. However, we may impose this
charge on any withdrawal, at the time any death benefit is paid, when the taxes
are incurred or when we pay the taxes. We will base this charge on the Contract
Value, the amount of the transaction, the aggregate amount of Purchase Payments
we receive under the Contract; or any other amount that, in our sole discretion,
we deem appropriate.
Other Taxes - We reserve the right to charge the Separate Account and/or deduct
from the Contract Value a charge for any federal, state or local taxes we pay
that are or become attributable to the Separate Account or Contract, including,
but not limited to, income taxes attributable to our operation of the Separate
Account or to our operations with respect to the Contract, or taxes
attributable, directly or indirectly, to Purchase Payments or payments we make
under this Contract.
Withdrawal Fee - We reserve the right to impose a withdrawal fee of $15 on each
withdrawal made in excess of fifteen (15) withdrawals in any Contract Year. Any
withdrawal fee we impose will be deducted from the Contract Value, on a pro rata
basis relative to the Account Value in each Investment Option, immediately after
the withdrawal. For this purpose, we will treat each withdrawal request as a
single withdrawal, regardless of the number of Investment Options from which
portions of Account Values are withdrawn.
Contingent Deferred Sales Charge ("Withdrawal Charge") - Purchase Payments are
subject to a withdrawal charge which is shown in the Contract Specifications.
This charge may apply to amounts withdrawn under the Contract prior to the
Annuity Date, depending on the length of time each Purchase Payment has been
allocated to the Contract and on the amount withdrawn.
We will not apply the withdrawal charge on:
. distributions resulting from the death of the first Owner or the sole
surviving Annuitant before the Annuity Date, except as provided under
the Death of Owner provisions for certain Non-Natural Owners;
. Contract Values converted to a life contingent option or to an Annuity
Option with a period certain of 5 years or more after the first Contract
Anniversary;
. withdrawals to meet required minimum distributions for Qualified
Contracts as they apply to amounts held under the Contract;
13
. withdrawals after the first Contract Anniversary, if the Owner or
Annuitant has been diagnosed as having a medically determinable
condition that results in a life expectancy of twelve (12) months or
less and we are provided with medical evidence satisfactory to us; or
. withdrawals while the Owner or Annuitant is confined to an accredited
nursing home for sixty (60) days or longer and this Contract has been
in effect for more than ninety (90) days. This waiver applies only to
withdrawals made while the Owner or Annuitant is in a nursing home or
within ninety (90) days after the Owner or Annuitant leaves the nursing
home. In addition, the confinement period for which you seek the waiver
must begin after the Contract Date. In order to use this waiver, you
must submit with your withdrawal request, the following documents:
(1) a physician's note recommending the Owner's or Annuitant's
admittance to a nursing home;
(2) an admittance form which shows the type of facility the Owner or
Annuitant entered; and
(3) a xxxx from the nursing home which shows that the Owner or Annuitant
met the 60 day confinement requirement. An accredited nursing home
shall be defined as a home or facility that:
(a) is operating in accordance with the law of jurisdiction in
which it is located;
(b) is primarily engaged in providing, in addition to room and
board, skilled nursing care under the supervision of a duly
licensed physician;
(c) provides continuous 24 hour a day nursing service by or under
the supervision of a registered nurse; and
(d) maintains a daily record of the patient.
Amount of Withdrawal Charge - The amount of a withdrawal charge depends on how
long the Purchase Payments are held under this Contract. Each Purchase Payment
you make is considered to have a certain "age," depending on the length of time
since that Purchase Payment was effective. A Purchase Payment is "age one" from
the day it was effective until the next Contract Anniversary and increases in
"age" on that and each succeeding Contract Anniversary. When you withdraw an
amount, the "age" of any Purchase Payment you withdraw determines the level of
withdrawal charge as shown in the Contract Specifications. For purposes of
calculating the withdrawal charge, we assume that Earnings are withdrawn first,
followed by amounts attributable to Purchase Payments. The "oldest" Purchase
Payment will be withdrawn first. The withdrawal charge will be deducted
proportionately from each Investment Option selected for withdrawal.
Withdrawal Enhancements - We reserve the right, in our sole discretion, to
calculate the withdrawal charge on more favorable terms than as otherwise
described in the Amount of Withdrawal Charge provision above. These Withdrawal
Enhancements may include an acceleration of the day on which the "age" of any
Purchase Payment is considered to occur. Although we retain the discretion to
add a Withdrawal Enhancement, once it is added, it is binding on us and
effective for any specified period we have designated. In the event of any
Withdrawal Enhancement, we will notify the Owner within thirty (30) days of the
effective date of the enhancement.
Free Withdrawals - During a Contract Year, you may withdraw free of withdrawal
charge amounts up to the sum of the Earnings plus "Eligible Purchase Payments".
Eligible Purchase Payments include 10% of all remaining Purchase Payments at the
beginning of a Contract Year that have an "age" of less than four (4) years,
plus 10% of any Purchase Payment received by us during the Contract Year, plus
100% of all remaining Purchase Payments that have an age of four (4) years or
more.
Earnings - For the purpose of calculating the withdrawal charge, as of the end
of any Business Day, Earnings equal the Contract Value, less the aggregate
Purchase Payments, and less withdrawals of prior Purchase Payments.
14
TRANSFER PROVISIONS
Transfers - You may, on or before the Annuity Date and subject to the Transfer
Limitations and Restrictions provision, transfer all or part of the Contract
Value, less any Loan Account Value, in any Investment Option among other
Investment Options, while the Annuitant is living and the Contract is in force.
Your transfer request must specify:
(a) the Investment Option (the "source account") from which the transfer
is to be made. You may choose one or more Investment Options as your
source account(s). Your source account may not also be a target account;
(b) the amount of the transfer. The amount of the transfer may be specified
as a dollar amount or a percentage of the source Account Value. If you
select more than one source account, the amount of the transfer from
each source account must be at least $250; and
(c) the Investment Option (the "target account") to receive the transferred
amount. You may choose one or more Investment Options as your target
account(s). If you select more than one target account, your request
must specify how the transferred amounts are to be allocated among the
target accounts. Your source account may not also be a target account.
Transfers among Investment Options will normally be effective as of the end of
the Business Day the transfer request, in a form satisfactory to us, is received
at our Service Center.
Transfer Limitations and Restrictions - The following limitations and
restrictions apply to transfers among Investment Options:
(a) Transfers are allowed thirty (30) days after the Contract Date.
(b) Transfers are limited to twenty-five (25) transfers during each
Calendar Year. For the purpose of applying this limitation, transfers
that occur on the same day are considered one transfer and transfers
that occur as a result of any systematic transfer option are excluded
from the maximum twenty-five (25) transfers per Calendar Year limitation.
(c) If a transfer reduces the remaining Account Value in any Investment
Option immediately after such transfer to an amount less than $500, we
reserve the right to transfer such remaining Account Value to your
other Investment Options on a pro rata basis relative to your most
recent allocation instructions.
(d) We further reserve the right to restrict, in our sole discretion and
without prior notice, transfers initiated by a market timing
organization or individual or other party authorized to give transfer
instructions on behalf of multiple Contract Owners. Such restrictions
could include:
(i) not accepting transfer instructions from an agent acting on behalf
of more than one Contract Owner; and
(ii) not accepting preauthorized transfer forms from market timers or
other entities acting on behalf of more than one Contract Owner at
a time.
(e) We further reserve the right to impose, without prior notice, other
limitations and restrictions on transfers that we determine, in our
sole discretion, will disadvantage or potentially hurt the rights or
interests of other Contract Owners.
15
WITHDRAWAL PROVISIONS
Withdrawals - You may, on or before the Annuity Date and subject to the
requirements, limitations and restrictions described in this section, withdraw
all or a portion of the amount available under this Contract, while the
Annuitant is living and the Contract is in force. However, no withdrawals are
allowed within thirty (30) days of the Contract Date.
You may specify that the withdrawal be taken from a specific Investment Option
or pro rata from all Investment Options. If your request does not specify the
Investment Option from which the withdrawal is to be made, the withdrawal will
be taken pro rata from all Investment Options relative to the Account Value in
each option. Withdrawals will normally be effective as of the end of the
Business Day the withdrawal request, in a form satisfactory to us, is received
at our Service Center.
Minimum Withdrawal Amount - The minimum amount that may be withdrawn is $500. If
the withdrawal reduces the Account Value in any Investment Option to an amount
less than $500, we reserve the right to transfer such remaining Account Value to
your other Investment Options on a pro rata basis relative to your most recent
allocation instructions.
If the withdrawal reduces the Net Contract Value to an amount less than $1,000,
we may terminate this Contract and pay you the withdrawal proceeds (see Amount
Available for Withdrawal provision). Payment of the withdrawal proceeds will end
this Contract and we will have no further obligations under the Contract.
Amount Available for Withdrawal - The amount available for withdrawal is the Net
Contract Value as of the end of the Business Day on which the withdrawal request
is effective, less any:
. withdrawal fee;
. withdrawal charge;
. annual fee; and
. charges for premium taxes and/or other taxes.
The amount we send you (the "withdrawal proceeds") will also reflect any
required or requested federal and/or state income tax withholding.
Termination of Contract - You may, on or before the Annuity Date, terminate this
Contract for its withdrawal proceeds, while the Annuitant is living and the
Contract is in force. We will require the return of this Contract or a signed
Lost Contract Affidavit with your request. The withdrawal proceeds will be
determined under the Amount Available for Withdrawal provision.
Your request to terminate the Contract will normally be effective as of the end
of the Business Day such request, in a form satisfactory to us, is received at
our Service Center. Payment of the withdrawal proceeds will end this Contract
and we will have no further obligations under the Contract.
16
CONTRACT LOANS
Loans - If this Contract is issued under a Qualified Plan under Code Section 401
or 403 and the Qualified Plan permits, you may request a loan of a portion of
the Contract Value.
Loan Procedures - The loan request must be submitted on our Loan Request Form.
You may submit a loan request thirty (30) days after the Contract Date and
before the Annuity Date. However, before requesting a new loan, you must wait
thirty (30) days after the last payment of a previous loan. If approved, the
loan will usually be effective as of the end of the Business Day on which we
receive all necessary documentation in a form satisfactory to us. We will
normally forward proceeds of the loan to you within seven (7) calendar days
after the effective date of the loan.
Loan Account - On the effective date of the loan, we will transfer an amount
equal to the principal amount of the loan into the Loan Account. We will
transfer amounts to the Loan Account on a pro rata basis from the Investment
Options based on the Account Value in each.
For those Contracts issued under Qualified Plans that are exempt from the
requirements of Title 1 of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974
("ERISA"), we will credit interest on amounts in the Loan Account at an annual
rate equal to 3.0%.
For those Contracts issued under Qualified Plans that are subject to the
requirements of Title 1 of ERISA, we will credit interest on amounts in the Loan
Account at an annual rate that is two percentage points lower than the annual
loan interest rate charged on the loan.
Interest earned will accrue daily beginning on the day following the effective
day of the loan. The interest credited will be transferred from the Loan Account
to the Investment Options on a pro rata basis relative to the most recent
allocation instructions.
Loan Terms - You may have only one loan outstanding at any time. The minimum
loan amount is $1,000 and the maximum loan amount is the lesser of:
. 50% of the Contract Value; or
. $50,000 less the highest outstanding Contract Debt during the 12-month
period immediately preceding the effective date of the loan.
You should refer to the terms of your particular Qualified Plan for any
additional loan restrictions. If you have other loans outstanding pursuant to
other Qualified Plans, the amount you may borrow may be further restricted. We
are not responsible for making any determinations (including loan amounts
permitted) or any interpretations with respect to your Qualified Plan.
Loan Interest Rate - For those Contracts issued under Qualified Plans that are
exempt from the requirements of Title 1 of ERISA, you will be charged interest
on the Contract Debt at an annual rate equal to 5%. Interest charged will accrue
daily beginning on the day the loan is effective.
For those Contracts issued under Qualified Plans that are subject to the
requirements of Title 1 of ERISA, you will be charged interest on the Contract
Debt at an annual rate, set at the time the loan is made, equal to the higher of
5% or the Moody's Corporate Bond Yield Average-Monthly Average Corporates, as
published by Xxxxx'x Investors Service, Inc., or its successor, for the most
recent available month. In the event that the Moody's Corporate Bond Yield
Average-Monthly Average Corporates is no longer available, we will use a
substantially similar average, subject to compliance with applicable state
regulations. We will notify you of the loan interest rate when you make a
Contract loan. Interest charged will accrue daily beginning on the day the loan
is effective.
Repayment Terms - You must repay principal and interest of any loan within five
(5) years after its effective date. If you have certified to us that the loan
proceeds will be used to acquire a principal residence for yourself, you may
request a loan for up to thirty (30) years. In either case, you must repay the
loan in full prior to the Annuity Date.
17
The loan, including principal and accrued interest, must be repaid in quarterly
installments that are substantially level. An installment will be due each
quarter on the date corresponding to the loan effective date, beginning with the
first such date following the effective date of the loan. You may, however,
repay the entire loan at any time. If you do so, we will xxxx you for any
accrued interest. The loan will be considered repaid only when the interest due
has also been paid.
We will treat all payments you send us as Purchase Payments unless you
specifically indicate that the payment is a loan repayment. To the extent
permitted by law, any loan repayments in excess of the amount then due will be
applied to the principal balance of the loan. Such repayments will not change
the due dates or the periodic repayment amount due for future periods. If a loan
repayment is in excess of the principal balance of the loan, any excess
repayment will be refunded to you. Repayments received that are less than the
amount then due will be returned to you, unless otherwise required by law.
If a loan repayment is not made when due, we will declare the entire remaining
loan balance in default. At that time, we will provide written notification of
the amount needed to bring the loan back to the current status. You will have
sixty (60) days from the date on which the loan was declared in default (the
"grace period") to make the required repayment.
If the required repayment is not received by us by the end of the grace period,
the defaulted loan balance plus accrued interest will be repaid by a withdrawal
from the Contract Value to the extent that such values are then eligible for
distribution. In order for an amount to be eligible for distribution from a
Qualified Plan you must meet one of six triggering events. They are: (a)
attainment of age 59 1/2; (b) separation from service; (c) death; (d)
disability; (e) plan termination; and (f) financial hardship. To the extent such
values are not then eligible for distribution, the defaulted loan balance plus
accrued interest will be considered a "Deemed Distribution" and that portion of
any Contract Value needed to repay the Contract Debt will be withdrawn when such
Contract Values become eligible for distribution.
If there is a Deemed Distribution under the Contract any future withdrawals will
first be applied as repayment of the defaulted Contract Debt, including accrued
interest and charges for applicable taxes, to the extent allowed by law. Any
amounts withdrawn and applied as repayment of Contract Debt will be withdrawn
first from the Loan Account and then from your Investment Options on a
proportionate basis relative to the Account Value in each Investment Option. If
you have an outstanding loan that is in default, the defaulted Contract Debt
will be considered a withdrawal for the purpose of calculating any death benefit
proceeds payable under this Contract.
The terms of any such loan are intended to qualify for the exception in Code
Section 72(p)(2) so that the distribution of the loan proceeds will not
constitute a distribution that is taxable to you. To that end, these loan
provisions will be interpreted to ensure and maintain such tax qualification,
despite any other provisions to the contrary. We reserve the right to amend the
Contract to reflect any clarifications that may be needed or are appropriate to
maintain such tax qualification or to conform any terms of our loan arrangement
with you to any applicable changes in the tax qualification requirements. We
will provide you with a copy of any such amendment. If you refuse such an
amendment, it may result in adverse tax consequences to you.
Adverse tax consequences may result if you fail to meet the repayment
requirements of the loan. A Deemed Distribution will be considered a currently
taxable distribution, and may be subject to federal tax withholding and a
federal early withdrawal penalty tax, regardless of when such unpaid amounts are
repaid. The tax and other Qualified Plan rules relating to Contract loans are
complex and in many cases unclear. For these reasons, and because the rules vary
depending on the individual circumstances of each Contract, we advise that you
consult with a qualified tax adviser before exercising the loan provisions of
this Contract.
If this Contract is a Non-Qualified Contract, or if your Qualified Plan does not
permit loans, loans under this Contract will not be available to you.
18
DEATH BENEFIT PROVISIONS
Death Benefit - A death benefit will be payable if the sole surviving Annuitant
or any Owner dies before the Annuity Date and while this Contract is in force.
The proceeds of any death benefit will be payable upon receipt of, in a form
satisfactory to us, proof of death and instructions regarding payment of the
death benefit proceeds. Such proceeds will equal the Death Benefit Amount
reduced by any:
. Contract Debt; and
. charges for premium taxes and/or other taxes.
These proceeds will be payable in a lump sum, as an Annuity Option under this
Contract or towards the purchase of any Annuity Option we then offer, or in
accordance with the Code (see Death of Owner Distribution Rules).
Death Benefit Amount - The Death Benefit Amount as of any Business Day prior to
the Annuity Date is equal to the greater of:
(a) the Contract Value as of that day; or
(b) the aggregate Purchase Payments reduced by an amount for each withdrawal
that has occurred, which is calculated by multiplying the aggregate
Purchase Payments received prior to each withdrawal by the ratio of the
amount of the withdrawal, including any applicable withdrawal charge, to
the Contract Value immediately prior to the withdrawal.
If you are not the Annuitant and you die before the Annuitant, the death benefit
proceeds will be equal to the Contract Value as of the Notice Date.
Death of Annuitant - If an Annuitant dies before the Owner and before the
Annuity Date, the death benefit proceeds will be equal to the Death Benefit
Amount as of the Notice Date. Unless there is a surviving Joint Annuitant or
Contingent Annuitant, we will pay the death benefit proceeds to the first person
among the following who is alive following the death of the sole surviving
Annuitant:
(a) the Owner;
(b) the Joint Owner;
(c) the Contingent Owner;
(d) the Beneficiary;
(e) the Contingent Beneficiary; or
(f) the Owner's estate.
If an Annuitant dies and there is a surviving Joint Annuitant, the surviving
Joint Annuitant becomes the Annuitant. If there is no surviving Joint Annuitant
and there is a Contingent Annuitant, the Contingent Annuitant becomes the
Annuitant. Death benefit proceeds are payable only as the result of the death of
the sole surviving Annuitant before the Annuity Date.
If you are the Annuitant and you die, we will determine the amount of any death
benefit proceeds and to whom it will be paid under this Death of Annuitant
provision. If the Contract is issued as a Non-Qualified Contract, we will
distribute any death benefit proceeds under the Death of Owner Distribution
Rules provision.
19
Death of Owner - If you are not the Annuitant and you die before the Annuitant
and before the Annuity Date, the death benefit proceeds will be equal to the
Contract Value as of the Notice Date.
If you die while the Annuitant is living and prior to the Annuity Date, we will
pay the death benefit proceeds to the first person among the following who is
alive following your death:
(a) the Joint Owner;
(b) the Contingent Owner;
(c) the Beneficiary;
(d) the Contingent Beneficiary; or
(e) the Owner's estate.
If you are not also the Annuitant and in the event of simultaneous deaths of
both you and the Annuitant, the death benefit will be calculated under the Death
of Annuitant provision and payment will be made in accordance with this Death of
Owner provision.
If you are a Non-Natural Owner of a Contract other than a Contract issued under
a Qualified Plan as defined in Section 401 or 403 of the Code, the Primary
Annuitant will be treated as the Owner of the Contract for purposes of the Death
of Owner Distribution Rules. If there is a change in the Primary Annuitant prior
to the Annuity Date, such change will be treated as the death of the Owner. The
Death Benefit Amount will be: (a) the Contract Value if the Non-Natural Owner
elects to maintain the Contract and reinvest the Contract Value into the
Contract in the same amount as immediately prior to the distribution; or (b) the
Contract Value less any withdrawal fee, withdrawal charge and less any charge
for premium taxes and/or other taxes if the Non-Natural Owner elects a cash
distribution. The death benefit will be determined as of the Business Day we
receive, in a form satisfactory to us, the request to change the Primary
Annuitant and instructions regarding continuance of the Contract or cash
distribution.
Death of Owner Distribution Rules - The following rules will determine when a
distribution must be made under this Contract. These rules do not affect our
determination of the amount of death benefit proceeds payable or distribution
proceeds. If there is more than one Owner, these rules apply on the date on
which the first of these Joint Owners die.
If the Owner dies before the Annuity Date, the designated recipient of the death
benefit proceeds may elect to receive the death benefit proceeds:
. in a lump sum payment;
. within five (5) years following the Owner's death; or
. in the form of an annuity for life or over a period that does not
exceed the life expectancy of the designated recipient, with annuity
payments that start within one (1) year after the Owner's death.
Unless otherwise required by law, an election to receive an annuity (in lieu of
a lump sum payment) must be made within such time frames as we may prescribe
from time to time, or the lump sum payment option will be deemed elected. We
will consider that deemed election as our receipt of instructions regarding
payment of the death benefit proceeds.
The Owner may designate that the Beneficiary is to receive the death benefit
proceeds either through an annuity for life or over a period that does not
exceed the life expectancy of the Beneficiary. Such designation must be made in
writing in a form acceptable to us, and may only be revoked by the Owner in
writing in a form acceptable to us. Upon death of the Owner, the Beneficiary
cannot revoke or modify any designation made by the Owner on how the death
benefit proceeds are to be paid.
If the spouse of the deceased Owner is the sole surviving Beneficiary, or is the
sole surviving Joint or Contingent Owner, and has an unrestricted right to
receive the death benefit proceeds in a lump sum, the spouse may continue this
Contract as Owner rather than receive the death benefit proceeds, provided that
we receive instructions to continue the Contract within such time frames as we
may prescribe from time to time.
20
On the Notice Date, if the surviving spouse is deemed to have continued the
Contract, we will set the Contract Value equal to the death benefit proceeds
that would have been payable to the spouse as the deemed Beneficiary/designated
recipient of the death benefit. The amount that the Death Benefit Amount exceeds
the Contract Value will be added to the Contract Value in the form of the Add-In
Amount on the Notice Date. The Add-In Amount will be allocated among Investment
Options in accordance with the current allocation instructions for the Contract
and will be considered earnings. There will not be an adjustment to the Contract
Value if the Contract Value is equal to the death benefit proceeds as of the
Notice Date.
If the Owner dies on or after the Annuity Date, but payments have not yet been
completed, then distributions of the remaining amounts payable under this
Contract must be made at least as rapidly as the rate that was being used at the
date of the Owner's death. All of the Owner's rights granted by the Contract
will be assumed by the first person among the following who is alive following
the Owner's death:
(a) the Joint Owner;
(b) the Contingent Owner;
(c) the Beneficiary;
(d) the Contingent Beneficiary; or
(e) the Owner's estate.
If the Owner is a Non-Natural Owner, the rules set forth in these Death of Owner
Distribution Rules apply in the event of the death or change of the Primary
Annuitant.
This Contract incorporates all applicable provisions of Code Section 72(s) and
any successor provision, as deemed necessary by us to qualify this Contract as
an annuity contract for federal income tax purposes, including the requirement
that, if the Owner dies before the Annuity Date, any death benefit proceeds
under this Contract shall be distributed within five years of the Owner's death
(or such other period that we offer and that is permitted under the Code or such
shorter period as we may require).
These Death of Owner Distribution Rules do not apply to Qualified Contracts
issued under Qualified Plans as defined in Section 401, 403, 408 or 408A of the
Code or to an annuity that is a qualified funding asset as defined in Code
Section 130(d) (but without regard to whether there is a qualified assignment).
Interest on Death Benefit Proceeds - If payment of death benefit proceeds is
unduly delayed after the Notice Date, we will pay interest on the death benefit
proceeds. Interest will be paid at a rate of not less than 3% per year from the
Notice Date until such proceeds are paid or applied under an Annuity Option. If
the insurance laws of the state in which the Contract is delivered requires
payment of a greater amount, we will pay that amount.
21
BENEFICIARY PROVISIONS
Designation of Beneficiary - The Beneficiary is the person you name who may
receive any death benefit proceeds, or any remaining annuity payments after the
Annuity Date, if the Annuitant or Owner dies. If you leave no surviving
Beneficiary, your estate may receive the death benefit proceeds.
If the Beneficiary is a trustee, we will neither be responsible for verifying a
trustee's right to receive any death benefit proceeds, nor for how the trustee
disposes of any death benefit proceeds. If before payment of any death benefit
proceeds, we receive proper notice that the trust has been revoked or is not in
effect, then any death benefit proceeds payable will be paid to the Contingent
Beneficiary, if living; if not to the Owner's estate.
Adding or Changing Your Beneficiary - You may add, change, or remove any
Beneficiary, other than an irrevocable Beneficiary, subject to the terms of any
assignment, at any time prior to the death of the Annuitant or Owner, by
providing us with a request in a form satisfactory to us. However, if you have
named an irrevocable Beneficiary, you may not add any new Beneficiary, or remove
or change the irrevocable Beneficiary, without obtaining his or her written
consent in a form acceptable to us. You may remove any non-irrevocable
Beneficiary without obtaining the consent of the irrevocable Beneficiary.
Qualified Contracts may have additional restrictions on naming and changing
Beneficiaries. Any change or addition will take effect only when we receive all
necessary documents and record the change or addition.
ANNUITY PROVISIONS
Choice of Annuity Date - Unless otherwise changed as provided below, the Annuity
Date is shown in the Contract Specifications. We assigned the Annuity Date based
on the Contract Type chosen and the Annuitant's Age shown in the application for
this Contract. If there are Joint Annuitants, the Annuity Date was based on the
younger Annuitant's birthday.
The Annuity Date may be changed by providing proper notice to us at least ten
(10) Business Days prior to the current Annuity Date or new Annuity Date,
whichever is earlier, subject to any applicable state law or the Code.
The new Annuity Date may not be earlier than the first Contract Anniversary and
must occur on or before the day the Annuitant reaches his or her 95th birthday,
or earlier, as required by any applicable state law or the Code. If there are
Joint Annuitants, the Annuity Date will be based on the younger Annuitant's
birthday. You may be subject to additional restrictions under your Qualified
Plan. You should consult with your Qualified Plan administrator before you elect
an Annuity Date.
Default Annuity Option - If this is a Non-Qualified Contract or a Qualified
Contract and you are not married, the Annuity Option will be Life with a Period
Certain of 10 Years. If this is a Qualified Contract and you are married, the
Annuity Option will be Joint and Survivor Life, with survivor payments of 50%,
and your spouse will automatically be named as the secondary Annuitant.
The Annuity Option may be changed by providing proper notice to us at least ten
(10) Business Days prior to the current Annuity Date, to any other Annuity
Option contained in this Contract or allowed by us.
Unless otherwise specified or changed, we will make annuity payments based on
our most frequent payment schedule that results in an initial annuity payment of
at least $250. The payment frequency may be changed by providing proper notice
to us at least ten (10) Business Days prior to the current Annuity Date.
The Net Contract Value, less any charges for premium taxes and/or other taxes,
when converted, will, subject to our minimum requirements, be converted as
follows:
. the net amount from the Variable Account Value will be applied to a
variable annuity and applied to the Subaccounts in proportion to the
Account Value in each Subaccount on the Annuity Date.
22
Application of Contract Value - Prior to the Annuity Date, you may elect to
convert all or part of the Net Contract Value, less any charge for premium taxes
and/or other taxes, to any currently offered Annuity Option. The aggregate net
amount you convert must be at least $10,000; otherwise, we reserve the right to
terminate this Contract and pay a single amount equal to the withdrawal proceeds
as determined under the Amount Available for Withdrawal provision.
Subject to the Withdrawal Provisions, you may also elect a full withdrawal in
lieu of annuity payments under an Annuity Option. Before we make any full
withdrawal, we require return of this Contract (or a signed Lost Contract
Affidavit) to us.
If you convert only a portion of the Net Contract Value on the Annuity Date, you
may, at that time, elect not to have the remainder of the Net Contract Value
distributed, but instead to continue the Contract with that remaining Contract
Value. This option may or may not be available, or may be available only for
certain types of Contracts. If this option is available and you elect it, you
would choose a second Annuity Date for such Contract Value. All references in
this Contract to the Annuity Start Date (or Annuity Date) would, with regard to
such Contract Value, be deemed to refer to that second Annuity Date. You should
consult with your tax adviser for more information if you desire this option.
Your Selections - Prior to the Annuity Date, you may make three selections about
the annuity payments. First, you may choose whether you want those payments to
be a fixed-dollar amount or a variable-dollar amount, or both. Second, you may
choose the form of annuity payments (Annuity Option). Third, you may choose to
have annuity payments made monthly, quarterly, semiannually, or annually.
The first annuity payment will be sent on the day following the Annuity Date and
must be at least $250. We may reduce your payment frequency if the first annuity
payment is less than $250. If you elect annuity payments for a Period Certain
Only, we also reserve the right to reduce the Period Certain to meet the $250
minimum first payment. After the Annuity Date, you may not change the Annuity
Option, or terminate the Contract for payment of amounts converted into a
variable annuity and/or fixed annuity.
Fixed and Variable Annuities - You may choose a fixed annuity (with fixed-dollar
payments), a variable annuity (with variable-dollar payments), or you may choose
a combination of both. If you select a variable annuity, you may choose any
Subaccounts for the annuity. If you select a variable annuity, on the Annuity
Date, we will convert that portion of the Net Contract Value as it is currently
allocated among the Subaccount(s). We will apply the net amount you convert to a
fixed annuity and/or a variable annuity (and in this instance, to each
Subaccount), based on the relative Account Value in each Investment Option on
the Annuity Date. Any net amount you convert to a fixed annuity will be held in
our General Account.
Each periodic payment under the fixed annuity will be equal to the amount of the
first fixed annuity payment (unless you elect a joint and survivor life annuity
with reduced survivor payments). The amount of each variable annuity periodic
payment will vary with the investment results of the Subaccount(s) you select.
After the Annuity Date, you may exchange the Annuity Units in any Subaccount(s)
for Annuity Units in any other Subaccount(s) up to four (4) times in any twelve
(12) month period. We reserve the right to limit the Subaccounts available, to
change the number and frequency of exchanges and to change the number of
Subaccounts you may choose.
Amount of Payments - The first annuity payment amount depends on the Annuity
Option, payment frequency, and whether you select a fixed annuity and/or a
variable annuity. If you do not choose the Period Certain Only Option, the
amount will depend on the Age of the Annuitant(s), the Annuity Date, and the sex
of the Annuitant(s), unless unisex factors apply.
Fixed Annuity Payments - The minimum guaranteed income purchased per $1,000 of
the net amount applied to a fixed annuity is based on an annual interest rate of
3% and the 1983a Mortality Table with the ages set back ten (10) years.
23
Conversion to Current Rates - Annuity payments will be based on the greater of:
. our current income factors in effect for this Contract on the Annuity
Date; or
. our guaranteed income factors.
The dollar amount of any payments after the first annuity payment is specified
during the annuity payment period according to the provisions of the elected
Annuity Option.
Variable Annuity Payments - Subaccount Annuity Units. For each Subaccount, we
divide the amount of the initial variable annuity payment from each Subaccount
by the Annuity Unit Value for that Subaccount (the "Annuity Unit Value") on the
Annuity Date, to obtain the number of Annuity Units for that Subaccount. The
number of Annuity Units in each Subaccount will not change unless exchanges of
Annuity Units are made (or if the Joint and Survivor Annuity Option is elected
and the Primary Annuitant dies first), but the Annuity Unit Value of those
Annuity Units will vary.
Subsequent Variable Payments - The amount of each subsequent variable annuity
payment will be the sum of the amounts payable based on the Annuity Units in
each Subaccount. To determine the amount payable for each Subaccount, we
multiply the number of Annuity Units in that Subaccount by their Annuity Unit
Value on the day in each payment period that corresponds to the Annuity Date.
Annuity Unit Value - The initial Annuity Unit Value for each Subaccount was
arbitrarily set at $10 on the Business Day the Subaccount began operations. At
the end of each subsequent Business Day, the Annuity Unit Value for each
Subaccount is equal to (A x B) x C, where:
A - is the Subaccount's Annuity Unit Value for that Subaccount as of the end
of the prior Business Day;
B - is the Net Investment Factor for that Subaccount for that valuation
period; and
C - is an interest factor to offset the effect of the assumed investment
return which is built into the Annuity Option Tables.
We generally calculate the Annuity Unit Value of each Subaccount on each day the
New York Stock Exchange is open, provided our administrative offices are also
open that day.
We guarantee that the amount of each subsequent annuity payment will not be
affected by variations in our expenses or in mortality experience.
Periodic Payments - The first payment under the Annuity Options will be
determined on the Annuity Date and will be made on the day following the Annuity
Date.
For a Beneficiary entitled to a death benefit due to the death of the Annuitant,
the first payment will be made on the first day of the calendar month, or
earlier at our option, next following the day we receive due proof of the
Annuitant's death and instructions regarding payment, (called the "Payment Start
Date"), and such other documentation as we may require. Subsequent payments will
be determined on the day in each payment period that corresponds to the Payment
Start Date and will be made on the following day.
24
ANNUITY OPTIONS
The following Annuity Options are available under this Contract. Additional
options may become available in the future:
Option 1 - Life Only: Periodic payments are made to the designated payee during
the Annuitant's lifetime. Payments stop when the Annuitant dies.
Option 2 - Life with Period Certain: Periodic payments are made to the
designated payee during the Annuitant's lifetime, with payments guaranteed for a
specified period. You may choose to have payments guaranteed 5 through 30 years
(in full years only). If the Annuitant dies before the guaranteed payments are
completed, we pay the Owner the remainder of the guaranteed payments.
Additionally, if variable payments are elected under this option, you may redeem
all remaining guaranteed variable payments after the Annuity Date. The amount
available upon such redemption would be the present value of any remaining
guaranteed variable payments at the assumed investment return. Any applicable
withdrawal charge will be deducted from the present value as if you terminated
the Contract. For purposes of calculating the withdrawal charge, annuity
payments will be treated as withdrawals.
Option 3 - Joint and Survivor Life: Periodic payments are made to the designated
payee during the lifetime of the Primary Annuitant. After the death of the
Primary Annuitant, periodic payments are based on the life of the secondary
Annuitant named in the election if and so long as such secondary Annuitant
lives. Payments made based on the life of the secondary Annuitant may be in
installments equal to 50%, 66-2/3% or 100% (as specified in the election) of the
original payment amount payable during the lifetime of the Primary Annuitant. If
you elect a reduced payment based on the life of the secondary Annuitant, fixed
annuity payments will be equal to 50% or 66-2/3% of the original fixed payment
payable during the lifetime of the Primary Annuitant. Variable annuity payments
will be determined using 50% or 66-2/3%, as applicable, of the number of Annuity
Units for each Subaccount credited to the Contract. Payments stop when both
Annuitants have died.
Option 4 - Period Certain Only: Periodic payments are made to the designated
payee during the Annuitant's lifetime, with payments guaranteed for a specified
period. You may choose to have payments guaranteed 5 through 30 years (in full
years only). If the Annuitant dies before the guaranteed payments are completed,
we pay to the Owner the remainder of the guaranteed payments. Additionally, if
variable payments are elected under this option, you may redeem all remaining
guaranteed variable payments after the Annuity Date. The amount available upon
such redemption would be the present value of any remaining guaranteed variable
payments at the assumed investment return. Any applicable withdrawal charge will
be deducted from the present value as if you terminated the Contract. For
purposes of calculating the withdrawal charge, annuity payments will be treated
as withdrawals.
25
ANNUITY OPTION TABLES
Applicability of Rates - For the fixed Annuity Option and the initial variable
annuity benefit, the Annuity Option Tables contained in the following pages
illustrate the minimum guaranteed monthly income purchased per $1,000 of the net
amount applied.
The tables also illustrate the minimum rates for the first monthly variable
annuity payment per $1,000 of the net amount applied to the variable annuity
payment option. Subsequent payments may be higher or lower than the first
payment, based on the investment performance of the Subaccount(s) you elect and
whether you exchange Subaccount Annuity Units.
For some Qualified Plans and in some states, the use of sex-distinct income
factors are prohibited. For those Qualified Plans, we use blended unisex income
factors for life payment options for both male and female Annuitants.
Basis of Computations - The actuarial basis for the fixed Annuity Option Tables
is the 1983a Annuity Mortality Table with the ages set back ten (10) years with
interest at an annual rate of 3%. The rates for variable annuity payments are
based on an assumed investment return of 5% per year and the 1983a Annuity
Mortality Table with the ages set back ten (10) years.
Rates Not Shown - Any rates and/or ages not shown in the tables contained in
this Contract will be provided by the Company upon request.
