We will pay the beneficiary the proceeds of this contract promptly if we receive
due proof that the insured died. We make this promise subject to all the
provisions of the contract.
The Death Benefit will be the face amount we show above plus the amount of any
extra benefit unless the contract is in default or there is contract debt. (If
and when the contract becomes paid-up, the death benefit after that will be as
we describe under Paid-up Contract on page 9.).
The cash value may increase or decrease daily depending on the payment of
premiums, the investment experience of the separate account and the level of
mortality charges made. There is no guaranteed minimum.
We specify a schedule of premiums. Additional unscheduled premiums may be paid
at your option subject to the limitations in the contract.
Please read this contract with care. A guide to its contents is on the last
page. A summary is on page 2. If there is ever a question about it, or if there
is a claim, just see one of our representatives or get in touch with one of our
offices.
Right to Cancel Contract. -- You may return this contract to us within (1) 10
days after you get it, or (2) 45 days after Part 1 of the application was
signed, or (3) 10 days after we mail or deliver the Notice of Withdrawal Right,
whichever is latest. All you have to do is take the contract or mail it to one
of our offices or to the representative who sold it to you. It will be canceled
fro the start and we will promptly give you the value of our Contract Fund on
the date you return the contract to us. We will also give back any charges we
made in accord with this contract.

CONTRACT SUMMARY
We offer this summary to help you understand this contract. We do not intend
that it change any of the provisions of the contract.
This is a contract of life insurance. Premiums are to be paid throughout the
Insured's lifetime. We specify a schedule of premiums that will keep the
contract in force. Additional premiums may be paid at your option, subject to
limits in the contract. The cash value will vary with the payment of premiums,
the investment performance of those subaccounts of the Pruco Life Variable
Appreciable Account that you select, and the extent to which mortality charges
are less than the guaranteed maximums. But the death benefit is guaranteed and,
until the time if any when the contract becomes paid-up, will not vary if the
contract is not in default past its days of grace, and there is no contract
debt. (We describe on page 8 the way the contract can go into default, and on
page 9 how the contract may become paid-up and how the death benefit may vary
above the face amount after that.) If the contract remains in default past its
days of grace, the contract may end or it may stay in force with reduced
benefits. If either occurs, you may be able to reinstate its full benefits. The
guaranteed death benefit is the face amount. On the date, if any, when we
determine that the contract has become fully paid-up, we will recompute the
guaranteed death benefit. It may be higher; it will not be lower. The death
benefit may vary after that, but it will not be less than the recomputed
guaranteed amount if there is no contract debt.
Proceeds is a word we use to mean the amount we would pay if we were to settle
the contract in one sum. To compute the proceeds that may arise from the
Insured's death, we start with a basic amount. We may adjust that amount if
there is a loan or if the contract is in default. The table on page 21 tells
what the basic amount is. The amount depends on how the contract is in force.
The table will refer you to the parts of the contract that tell you how we
adjust the basic amount. If you surrender the contract, the proceeds will be the
net cash value. We describe it under Cash Value Option on pages 13 and 14.
Proceeds often are not taken in one sum. For instance, on surrender, you may be
able to put proceeds under a settlement option to provide retirement income or
for some other purpose. Also, for all or part of the proceeds that arise from
the Insured's death, you may be able to choose a manner of payment for the
beneficiary. If an option has not been chosen, the beneficiary may be able to
choose one. We will pay interest under Option 3 from the date of death on any
proceeds to which no other manner of payment applies. This will be automatic as
we state on page 20. There is no need to ask for it.
You and we may agree on a change in the ownership of this contract. Also, unless
we endorse it to say otherwise, the contract gives you these rights, among
others:
o You may change the beneficiary under it.
o You may borrow on it up to its loan value.
o You may surrender it for its net cash value.
o You may change the allocation of future net premiums among the subaccounts.
o You may transfer amounts among subaccounts.
The contract, as issued, may or may not have extra benefits that we call
Supplementary Benefits. If it does, we list them under Supplementary Benefits on
the Contract Data page(s) and describe them after page 20. The contract may or
may not have other extra benefits. If it does, we add them by rider. Any extra
benefit ends as soon as the contract is in default past its days of grace,
unless the form that describes it states otherwise.

ENDORSEMENTS
(Only we can endorse this contract.)
Definitions.--We define here some of the words and phrases used all through this
contract. We explain others, not defined here, in other parts of the test.
We, Our, Us and Company.--Pruco Life Insurance Company, an Arizona Corporation.
You and Your.--The owner of the contract.
Insured.--The person named as the Insured on the first page. He or she need not
be the owner.
Example: Suppose we issue a contract on the life of your spouse. You applied for
it and named no one else as owner. Your spouse is the Insured and you are the
owner.
SEC.--The Securities and Exchange Commission.
Issue Date.--The contract date.
Monthly Date.--The contract date and the same day as the contract date in each
later month.
Example: If the contract date is March 9, 1986, the Monthly Dates are each March
9, April 9, May 9 and so on.
Anniversary or Contract Anniversary.--The same day and month as the contract
date in each later year.
Example: If the contract date is March 9, 1986, the first anniversary is March
9, 1987. The second is March 9, 1988, and so on.
Contract year.--A year that starts on the contract date or on an anniversary.
Example: If the contract date is March 9, 1986, the first contract year starts
then and ends on March 8, 1987. The second starts on March 9, 1987 and ends on
March 8, 1988, and so on.
Contract Month.--A month that starts on a Monthly Date.
Example: If March 9, 1986 is a Monthly Date, a contract month starts then and
ends on April 8, 1986. The next contract month starts on April 9, 1986 and ends
on May 8, 1986, and so on.
Attained Age.--The Insured's attained age at any time is the issue age plus the
length of time since the contract date. You will find the issue age near the top
of page 3.
The Contract.--This policy and the application, a copy of which is attached,
form the whole contract. We assume that all statements in the application were
made to the best of the knowledge and belief of the person(s) who made them; in
the absence of fraud they are deemed to be representations and not warranties.
We relied on those statements when we issued the contract. We will not use any
statement, unless made in the application, to try to void the contract or to
deny a claim.
Contract Modifications.--Only a Company officer may agree to modify this
contract, and then only in writing.
Non-participating.--This contract will not share in our profits or surplus
earnings. We will pay no dividends on it.
Service Office.--This is the office that will service this contract. Its mailing
address is the one we show on the Contract Data pages, unless we notify you of
another one.
Ownership and Control.--Unless we endorse this contract to say otherwise: (1)
the owner of the contract is the Insured; and (2) while the Insured is living
the owner alone is entitled to (a) any contract benefit and value, and (b) the
exercise of any right and privilege granted by the contract or by us.
Suicide Exclusion.--If the Insured, whether sane or insane, dies by suicide
within two years from the issue date, we will pay no more under this contract
than the sum of the premiums paid.
Currency.--Any money we pay, or that is paid to us, must be in United States
currency. Any amount we owe will be payable at our Service Office.
(Continued on Next Page)
page 5 (VALA--84)
GENERAL PROVISIONS (Continued)
Misstatement of Age or Sex.--If the Insured's stated age or sex or both are not
correct, we will adjust each benefit and any amount to be paid to reflect the
correct age and sex. Where required, we have given the insurance regulator a
detailed statement of how we will make these changes.
The Schedule of Premiums may show that premiums change or stop on a certain
date. We may have used that date because the Insured would attain a certain age
on that date. If we find that the issue age was wrong, we will correct that
date.
Incontestability.--Except for default, we will not contest this contract after
it has been in force during the Insured's lifetime for two years from the issue
date.
Assignment.--We will not be deemed to know of an assignment unless we receive
it, or a copy of it, at our Service Office. We are not obliged to see that an
assignment is valid or sufficient.
Annual Report.--Each year we will send you a report. It will show: (1) the
current death benefit; (2) the investment amount; (3) the amount of investment
amount in each subaccount; (4) the net cash value; (5) premiums paid and monthly
charges deducted since the last report; and (6) any contract debt and the
interest on the debt for the prior year. The report will also include any other
data that may be currently required where this contract is delivered. No report
will be sent if this contract is being continued under extended term insurance.
You may ask for a similar report at some other time during the year. Or you may
request from time to time a report projecting results under your contract on the
basis of premium payment assumptions and assumed investment results. We have the
right to make a reasonable charge for reports such as these that you ask for,
and to limit the scope and frequency of such reports.
Increase in Face Amount at Age 21 for Contracts Issued at Age 14 or Lower.--If
this contract was issued at age 14 or lower, it shows on page 3 an increase in
face amount at attained age 21, which applies if the contract is not then in
default beyond its days of grace. If so, any references in the contract to face
amount or death benefit which apply at or after attained age 21 will be based
upon the increased face amount, unless otherwise stated.
Death Proceeds.--The table of Basic Amounts on page 21 describes how the
proceeds payable at death will be determined, depending on the status of the
contract at the time of death. In addition to what is shown in that table, a
special situation will apply in those cases where all of these conditions exist:
(a) the contract was issued at an age below 15; (b) death occurs before attained
age 21; (c) the contract is on a premium paying basis and not in default past
its days of grace; (d) the contract fund is not sufficient to make the contract
paid up for the ultimate face amount; (e) the contract fund is greater than the
sum of the net single premium for the initial face amount and the present value,
discounted at a rate we set from time to time but no less than 4% a year, of all
future charges for extra benefits other than those which do not continue after a
contract such as this becomes paid up. (See above and Paid-up Contract, page 9.)
In this case, the Basic Amount will not be as described on page 21 but will be
the total of (1) the initial face amount, plus (2) the amount which results from
dividing the contract fund minus the present value of the future charges for
extra benefits referred to above, minus the net single premium for the initial
face amount, by the net single premium at the then attained age, plus (3) the
amount of any extra benefits.
Payment of Death Claim.--If we settle this contract in one sum as a death claim,
we will usually pay the proceeds within 7 days after we receive at our Service
Office proof of death and any other information we need to pay the claim. But in
the event of death while the contract is either fully paid-up or is in force as
variable reduced paid-up insurance we have the right to defer paying any portion
of the proceeds greater than the minimum guaranteed death benefit if (1) the New
York Stock Exchange is closed; or (2) the SEC requires that trading be
restricted or declares an emergency; or (3) the SEC lets us defer payment to
protect our contract owners.
Page 6 (VALA--84)
PREMIUM PAYMENT AND REINSTATEMENT
Payment of Premiums.--Premiums may be paid at our Service Office or to any of
our authorized representatives. If we are asked to do so, we will give a signed
receipt.
Premium payments will in most cases be credited as of the date of receipt, to
both the contract fund and the premium account. (See Contract Fund, page 11, and
Premium Account, page 8.) Premium credits to the contract fund are the invested
premium amounts, (see page 11). Premium credits to the premium account are the
full premiums paid with no deductions. But in the following cases, to the extent
stated, premium payments will be credited as of a date other than the date of
receipt:
1. The first scheduled premium is due on the Contract Date. But if the first
premium payment is received after the Contract Date, the scheduled portion will
be credited to the contract fund and the premium account as of the Contract
Date. And any portion of that first premium payment in excess of the first
scheduled premium will be credited as of the date of receipt. If the first
premium is received before the Contract Date, the entire payment will be
credited as of the Contract Date.
2. If a premium payment is received during the 61 day period after the day when
a scheduled premium was due and had not yet been paid, here is what we will do.
We will determine whether the premium account, (see Premium Account below), just
before receipt of that payment was a negative amount. If not--that is, if the
premium account was zero or higher--the premium payment will be credited as of
the date of receipt. But if the premium account was negative, by no more than
the scheduled premium on the due date, that portion of the premium payment
required to bring the premium account up to zero will be credited to the premium
account as of the due date; any remaining portion of the premium payment will be
credited to the premium account as of the date of receipt. If the premium
account is negative by more than the scheduled premium then due, the premium
payment will be credited as of the date of receipt, except in the situation
described in 3 below.
3. On each Monthly Date we will determine if the contract fund is in default.
(See Default on page 8.) We will notify you on the minimum payment amount needed
to bring the contract out of default. If one or more premium payments are made
during the days of grace after that monthly date, (see Grace period on page 8,)
we will credit to the contract fund and the premium account as of the applicable
Monthly Dates, such parts of the payments as are needed to end the default
status; any remaining part of these premium payments will be credited to the
contract fund and premium account as of the date of receipt.
Scheduled Premiums.--We show the amount and frequency of the scheduled premiums
in the Schedule of Premiums. The first scheduled premium is due on the contract
date. There is no insurance under this contract unless an amount at least equal
to the first scheduled premium is paid.
The scheduled premium shown is the minimum required, at the frequency chosen, to
continue the contract in full force if all scheduled premiums are paid when due,
investment returns are at the rate assumed, we deduct mortality charges at no
less than the maximum rate, and any contract debt does not exceed the cash
value.
If you wish to pay, on a regular basis, higher premiums than the amount of the
scheduled premium, we will xxxx you for the higher amount you choose.
If scheduled premiums that are due are not paid, or if smaller payments are
made, the contract may then or at some future time go into default. The
conditions under which default will exist are described below:
Unscheduled Premiums.--Except as we state in the next paragraph unscheduled
premiums may be paid at any time during the Insured's lifetime as long as the
contract is not in default beyond its days of grace. We show on page 3 the
minimum premium we will accept. We have the right to limit unscheduled premiums
to a total of $10,000 in any contract year.
If we determine at any time that investment returns above the rate assumed, or
smaller than maximum mortality charges or greater than scheduled premium
payments have made the contract paid-up, we have the right to accept no further
premium payments, or to limit the amount or frequency of premium payments
thereafter. (See Paid-up Contract, page 9.)
Premium Change on Contract Change Date.--We show the Contract Change Date in the
Contract Data on page 3. We also show in the Schedule of Premiums on page 3 that
the amount of each scheduled premium will change on the Contract Change Date and
what the new premium will be. However, when the Contract Change Date arrives we
will recompute a new premium amount to be used in calculating the premium
account. The new premium that we recompute will be no greater than the new
premium for that date which we show on page 3. In addition, if the premium
account is less than zero, we will set the premium account to zero.
(Continued on Next Page)
Page 7 (VALA--84)
PREMIUM PAYMENT AND REINSTATEMENT (Continued)
The Schedule of Premiums may also show that the premium changes at other times.
This may occur, for example, with a contract issued with extra benefits or in an
extra rating class if, in either case, this calls for a higher or extra premium
for a limited period of time.
Default.--Unless the contract is already in the grace period, (see below), on
each monthly date, after we deduct any charges from the contract fund (which we
describe on page 11) and add any credits to it, we will determine whether the
contract is in default. To do so we will compute the amount which will accrue to
the tabular contract fund on the next monthly date if, during the current
contract month; (1) investment returns are at the assumed rate; and (2) we make
the other charges and credit we have set, including interest on contract debt;
and (3) we receive no premiums or loan repayments and make no more loans or
grant no partial withdrawals. We will subtract this amount from the contract
fund. If the result is zero or more, (that is, not a negative amount,) the
contract is not in default. But if there is a fund deficit--that is, if the
result is less than zero--the contract is in default if the premium account,
which we define below, is also less than zero.
Grace Period.--We grant 61 days of grace from any monthly date (other than the
contract date) on which the contract goes into default. During the days of grace
we will continue to accept premiums and make the charges we have set. If the
monthly date was a scheduled premium due date, when we receive a premium payment
during the days of grace we will first determine whether it satisfies case 2
under Payment of Premiums above. If it does, the default will end. If it does
not, or if the monthly date when the contract went into default was not a
scheduled premium due date, here is what we will do:
If at any time during the days of grace, we have received payments that in total
are at least equal to the lesser of (a) the sum of the fund deficit, (that is,
the amount by which the contract fund is below the tabular contract fund,) on
the date of default and any subsequent Monthly Date, and (b) the sum of the
amount by which the premium account is negative on the date of default and any
scheduled premiums due since the date of default, the default will end.
If the contract is still in default when the days of grace are over, it will end
and have no value, except as we state under Contract Value Options, (which we
describe on page 13).
Premium Account.--On the contract date, the premium account is equal to the
premium received on that date minus the scheduled premium then due. On any other
day, the premium account is equal to:
1. what it was on the prior day; plus
2. if the premium account was greater than zero on the prior day, interest on
the excess at 4% year; minus
3. if the premium account was less than zero on the prior day, interest on the
deficit at 4% a year; plus
4. any premium received on that day; minus
5. any scheduled premium due on that day; minus
6. any partial withdrawals on that day.
The contract might be in default, as described above. If so, the premium account
is a negative amount, less than zero. If a premium payment is received on any
day during the days of grace while the contract is in default and the premium
account is negative by no more than one scheduled premium, that payment, to the
extent that it is required to bring the premium account up to zero, will, as we
describe under Payment of Premiums above, be credited to the premium account as
of the monthly date when the scheduled premium was due, whether the date of
default or a subsequent monthly date. Any remaining portion of the premium
payment will be credited as of the actual date of receipt. In this case the
premium account for all days from the monthly date to the actual date of receipt
will be recalculated.
Reinstatement.--If this contract ends as we describe under Grace Period, you may
reinstate it, if all these conditions are met:
1. No more than three years must have elapsed since the date of default.
2. You must not have surrendered the contract for its net cash value.
3. You must give us any facts we need to satisfy us that the insured is
insurable for the contract.
4. We must be paid a premium at least equal to the amount required to bring the
premium account up to zero on the first monthly date on which a scheduled
premium is due after the date of reinstatement. From this amount we will deduct
$2, plus 7 1/2% of the remaining payment, plus any charges with interest for any
extra benefits, plus any other expense charges with interest. The contract fund
will be equal to the balance, plus the cash value of the contract immediately
before reinstatement, plus a refund of that part of any surrender charge paid at
the time of default which would be charges if the contract were surrendered
immediately after reinstatement.
5. If before reinstatement the contract is in force as reduced paid-up insurance
(see page 13) any contract debt under reduced paid-up insurance must be repaid
with interest or carried over to the reinstated contract.
If we approve the reinstatement, these statements apply. The date of
reinstatement will be the date of your request or the date the required premium
is paid, if later. And we will start to make daily and monthly charges and
credits again as of the date of reinstatement.
Page 8 (VALA--84)
BENEFICIARY
You may designate or change a beneficiary. Your request must be in writing and
in a form that meets our needs. It will take effect only when we file it at our
Service Office; this will be after you send the contract to us to be endorsed,
if we ask you to do so. Then any previous beneficiary's interest will end as of
the date of the request. It will end then even if the Insured is not living when
we file the request. Any beneficiary's interest is subject to the rights of any
assignee of whom we know.
When a beneficiary is designated, any relationship shown is to the Insured,
unless otherwise stated. To show priority, we may use numbered classes, so that
the class with first priority is called class 1, the class with next priority is
called class 2, and so on. When we use numbered classes, these statements apply
to beneficiaries unless the form states otherwise:
1. One who survives the Insured will have the right to be paid only if no one in
a prior class survives the Insured.
2. One who has the right to be paid will be the only one paid if no one else in
the same class survives the Insured.
3. Two or more in the same class who have the right to be paid will be paid in
equal shares.
4. If none survives the Insured, we will pay in one sum to the Insured's estate.
Example: Suppose the class 1 beneficiary is Xxxx and the class 2 beneficiaries
are Xxxx and Xxxx. We owe Xxxx the proceeds if she is living at the Insured's
death. We owe Xxxx and Xxxx the proceeds if they are living then but Xxxx is
not. But if only one of them is living, we owe him the proceeds. If none of them
is living we owe the Insured's estate.
Beneficiaries who do not have a right to be paid under these terms may still
have a right to be paid under the Automatic Mode of Settlement.
Before we make a payment, we have the right to decide what proof we need of the
identity, age or any other facts about any persons designated as beneficiaries.
If beneficiaries are not designated by name and we make payment(s) based on that
proof, we will not have to make the payment(s) again.
PAID-UP CONTRACT
This contract will become fully paid-up if and when whichever of the following
situations is applicable occurs:
(a) For a contract issued at an age lower than 15, the contract fund has grown
to an amount at least equal to the net single premium for the ultimate face
amount (see page 3 and 7,) plus the present value, discounted at a rate we set
from time to time but no less than 4% a year, of all future charges for any
extra benefits which will continue under the paid-up contract.
(b) For a contract issued at age 15 or above, the contract fund has grown to an
amount at least equal to the net single premium for the face amount, (see page 3
and 7,) plus the present value, discounted at a rate we set from time to time
but no less than 4% a year, of all future charges for any extra benefits which
will continue under the paid-up contract.
We will notify you when we determine that the contract has become fully paid-up.
We have the right at that time to return any part of any payment then being made
which is in excess of the amount billed or required to make the contract
paid-up. And we have the right to accept no further premium payments, or to
limit the amount or frequency of premium payments thereafter. The contract will
continue as paid-up life insurance on the Insured's life.
The death benefit under the paid-up contract may change daily, as we explain
below, but if there is no contract debt, it will not be less than the minimum
guaranteed death benefit determined on the day the contract becomes paid-up.
That amount will be no less than the face amount shown on page 3, (or, if the
contract was issued below age 15, the ultimate face amount.) It will be computed
by using the contract fund on that day, less the present value of all future
charges for any extra benefits, (computed as described above,) at the net single
premium rate. The net single premium rate depends on the Insured's issue age and
sex and on the length of time since the contract date. The amount payable in
event of death thereafter will be the guaranteed death benefit, or if greater,
the contract fund, divided by the net single premium at the Insured's attained
age on the date of death. In either case the amount will be adjusted for any
contract debt and for the amount of any paid-up extra benefits.
The monthly charge described on page 12 and shown on page 3A, and any charges
for extra benefits will not be made after the contract becomes paid-up.

SEPARATE ACCOUNT
The Account.--The word account, where we use it in this contract without
qualification, means the Pruco Life Variable Appreciable Account. This is a unit
investment trust registered with the SEC under the Investment Company Act of
1940. It is also subject to the laws of Arizona. We own the assets of the
account; we keep them separate from the assets of our general investment
account. We established the account to support variable life insurance
contracts. But we do not use it to support this contract if the contract is
being continued under extended term insurance. (See page 13.)
Subaccounts.--The account has several subaccounts. We list them on the Contract
Data page(s). You determine, using percentages, how invested premium amounts
will be allocated among the subaccounts. You may choose to allocate nothing to a
particular subaccount. But any allocation you make must be at least 10%; you may
not choose a fractional percent.
Example: You may choose a percentage of 0, or 100, or 10, 11, 12, and so on, up
to 90. But you may not choose a percentage of 1 through 9, or 91 through 99, or
any percent that is not a whole number. The total for all subaccounts must be
100%.
The allocation of invested premium amounts (see page 11,) that took effect on
the contract date is shown in the Contract Data pages. You may change the
allocation for future invested premium amounts at any time if the contract is
not in default. To do so, you must notify us in writing in a form that meets our
needs. The change will take effect on the date we receive your notice at our
Service Office.
A premium might be paid when the investment amount is less than zero. In that
case, when we receive that premium, we first use as much of the invested premium
amount as we need to eliminate the deficit in the investment amount. We will
then allocate any remainder of the invested premium amount in accord with your
most recent request. (We describe investment amount on page 11.)
The Fund.--The word fund, where we use it in this contract without
qualification, means the fund we identify in the Contract Data pages. The fund
is registered with the SEC under the Investment Company Act of 1940 as an
open-end diversified management investment company. The fund has several
portfolios; there is a portfolio that corresponds to each of the subaccounts of
the account. We list these portfolios in the Contract Data pages.
Account Investments.--We use the assets of the account to buy shares in the
fund. Each subaccount is invested in a corresponding specific portfolio. Income
and realized and unrealized gains and losses from assets in each subaccount are
credited to, or charged against, the subaccount. This is without regard to
income, gains, or losses in our other investment accounts.
We will determine the value of the assets in the account at the end of each
business day. When we use the term business day, we mean a day when the New York
Stock Exchange is open for trading. We might need to know the value of an asset
on a day that is not a business day or on which trading in that asset does not
take place. In this case, we will use the value of that asset as of the end of
the last prior business day on which trading took place.
Example: If we need to know the value of an asset on a Sunday, we will normally
use the value of the asset as of the end of business on Friday.
We will always keep assets in the account with a total value at least equal to
the amount of the investment amounts under contracts like this one. To the
extent those assets do not exceed this amount, we use them only to support those
contracts; we do not use those assets to support any other business we conduct.
We may use any excess over this amount in any way we choose.
Change in Investment Policy.--A portfolio of the fund might make a material
change in its investment policy. In that case, we will send you a notice of the
change. Within 60 days after you receive the notice, or within 60 days after the
effective date of the change, if later, you may exchange this contract for a new
contract of fixed benefit insurance on the Insured's life. The conditions for
exchange, and the specifications for the new contract, are described under
Exchange of Contract on page 16.
Change of Fund.--A portfolio might, in our judgment, become unsuitable for
investment by a subaccount. This might happen because of a change in investment
policy, or a change in the laws or regulations, or because the shares are no
longer available for investment, or for some other reason. If that occurs, we
have the right to substitute another portfolio of the fund, or to invest in a
fund other than the one we show on the Contract Data page(s). But we would first
seek approval from the SEC and, where required, the insurance regulator where
this contract is delivered.
Page 10 (VALA-84)
INVESTMENT AMOUNT AND RETURN ON INVESTMENT
Investment Amount.--The investment amount for this contract is the amount we use
to compute the investment return. The investment amount is allocated among the
subaccounts. The amount of the investment amount and its allocation to
subaccounts depend on (1) how you choose to allocate net premiums; (2) whether
or not you transfer amounts among subaccounts, as we discuss below; (3) the
investment performance of the subaccounts to which amounts are allocated or
transferred; (4) the amount and timing of premium payments you make; (5) whether
or not you take any loan; and (6) whether or not you make any partial
withdrawals. The investment amount exists only is the contract is not in default
past the days of grace or if it is being continued as variable reduced paid-up
insurance.
The investment amount at any time is equal to the contract fund, (we explain
this under contract fund,) minus the amount of any loan on the contract, minus
interest accrued on the loan at 4% a year since the last Monthly Date (we
explain this under Loans.)
Assumed Rate of Return.--The assumed rate of return is an effective rate of 4% a
year. This is the same as .01074598% a day compounded daily.
Transfers Among Subaccounts.--You may transfer amounts among subaccounts as
often as four times in a contract year, if the contract is not in default or if
the contract is being continued under the variable reduced paid up option. To do
so, you must notify us in writing in a form that meets our needs. The transfer
will take effect on the date we receive your notice at our Service Office.
CONTRACT FUND
Contract Fund Defined.--On the contract date the contract fund is equal to the
invested premium amounts received, (see below), minus any of the charges
described in terms (d) through (j) below which may have been due on that date.
On any day after that the contract fund is equal to what it was on the previous
day, plus any invested premium amounts received, plus these items.
(a) any increase due to investment results in the value of the subaccounts
to which that portion of the contract fund that is in the investment
amount is allocated; (we explain investment amount above); and
(b) guaranteed interest at 4% a year on that portion of the contract fund
that is not in the investment amount;
Minus these items:
(c) any decrease due to investment results in the value of the subaccounts
to which that portion of the contract fund that is in the investment
amount is allocated;
(d) a charge against the investment amount at a rate of not more than
.00163894% a day (.60% a year) for mortality and expense risks that we
assume;
(e) any amount charged against the investment amount for Federal or State
income taxes;
(f) a monthly charge to guarantee the minimum death benefit;
(g) a charge for the cost of expected mortality;
(h) any charges for extra rating class;
(i) any charges for extra benefits;
(j) a monthly administration charges;
(k) any partial withdrawals; and
(l) if the contract becomes paid-up on that day, the present value of any
future charges for any extra benefits that will continue under the
paid-up contract.
We describe under Reinstatement on page 8 what the contract fund will be equal
to on any reinstatement date.
Invested Premium Amount.--This is the portion of each premium paid that we will
add to the contract fund. It is equal to the premium paid, minus $2.00, minus
7 1/2% of the rest of the premium. We explain this under Schedule of Expense
Charges from Premium Payments.
Guaranteed Interest Credits.--We will credit interest to the contract fund each
day on any portion of the contract fund on that day which is not in the
investment amount. That portion will be any contract loan plus interest accrued
on the loan at the rate of 4% a year since the last Monthly Date. (See Loans.)
We will credit .01074598% a day, which is an effective rate of 4% a year.
Cost of Expected Mortality.--This charge is computed daily and deducted monthly
from the contract fund, on each Monthly Date. We apply this charge to the
coverage amount. The coverage amount is equal to what the Basic Amount (see page
21) would be if there were no extra benefits, minus the contract fund. Where
required, we have given the insurance regulator a detailed description of the
method we use.
We will not charge more than the maximum guaranteed rates, which are based on
the Insured's sex and attained age and the mortality table described under the
Basis of Computation. We may charge less. At lease once every five years, but
not more often than once a year, we will consider the need to change the
charges. We will change them only if we do so for all contracts like this one
dated in the same year as this one.
Charge for Extra Rating Class.--If there is an extra charge because of the
rating class of the Insured or because the Insured is a cigarette smoker, we
will deduct
(Continued on Next Page)
Page 11 (VALA--84)
CONTRACT FUND (Continued)
it from the contract fund at the beginning of each contract month. Any charge is
included in the amount shown in the Contract Data pages under Schedule of
Monthly Deductions from Contract Fund.
Charge for Extra Benefits.--If the contract has extra benefits, we will deduct
the charges for such benefits from the contract fund at the beginning of each
contract month. Charges for any such extra benefits are included in the amount
shown in the Contract Data pages under Schedule of Monthly Deductions from
Contract Fund.
If and when we determine that the contract has become paid-up, we will deduct
from the contract fund the present value of any future charges for any extra
benefits that will continue under the paid-up contract. We will make no further
deductions for these benefits after that. The description of any such benefit
(which can be found following page 20) describes how the future cash value, if
any, of that benefit will be determined.
Monthly Administration Charge and Mortality Risk Charge.--On each monthly date,
we will deduct up to $2.50, plus up to 2 cents per $1000 of face amount, from
the contract fund, as a monthly administration charge. We will also deduct 1
cent per $1000 of face amount for guaranteeing the death benefit regardless of
the investment performance of the separate account. (Both of these references to
charges based upon face amount are to initial face amount for contracts issued
below age 15. The total charges do not increase when the face amount increases
at attained age 21.) These charges will be made only while the contract is on a
premium paying basis; they will not be made if the contract becomes paid-up or
is continued as variable reduced paid-up or extended term insurance, (see
Contract Value Options). We show the amount of these charges in the Contract
Date pages under Schedule of Monthly Deductions from Contract Fund.
Partial Withdrawals.--You may be able to make partial withdrawals from the
contract. All these conditions must be met.
1. The contract must have passed its first contract anniversary.
2. You must ask for the change in writing and in a form that meets our needs.
3. The amount withdrawn, plus the net cash value after withdrawal, may not be
more than the net cash value before withdrawal.
4. The cash value after withdrawal must not be less than the tabular cash value
for the new face amount.
5. The amount you withdraw must be at least $2,000.
6. The face amount must not decrease below the minimum shown on page 3.
7. You must send the contract to us to be endorsed.
We will add a withdrawal fee of $15 to the amount you ask to withdraw.
We will decrease the face amount by the amount of the withdrawal. We will
compute a new tabular contract fund, a new tabular contract value, and new
minimum premiums based on the reduced face amount. These new minimum premiums
will be used thereafter for the computation of the premium account.
An amount withdrawn may not be repaid, except as an unscheduled premium subject
to charges.
We will tell you how much you may withdraw if you ask us.
Page 12 (VALA--84)
CONTRACT VALUE OPTIONS
Benefit After the Grace Period.--If the contract is in default beyond its days
of grace, we will use any net cash value (which we describe under Cash Value
Option) to keep the contract in force as one of two kinds of insurance. One kind
is extended insurance. The second kind is variable reduced paid-up insurance. We
describe each below. You will find under Automatic Benefit which kind it will
be. Any extra benefit(s) will end as soon as the contract is in default past its
days of grace, unless the form that describes the extra benefit states
otherwise.
Extended Insurance.--This will be term insurance of a fixed amount on the
Insured's life. We will pay the amount of term insurance if the Insured dies in
the term we describe below. Before the end of the term there will be cash values
but no loan value.
The amount of term insurance will be the death benefit on the day of default,
minus any part of that death benefit which was provided by extra benefits. The
term is a period of time that will start on the day the contract went into
default. The length of the term will be what is provided when we use the net
cash value at the net single premium rate. This rate depends on the Insured's
issue age and sex and on the length of time since the contract date.
There may be extra days of term insurance. This will occur if, on the day the
contract goes into default, the term of extended insurance provided by the net
cash value does not exceed 90 days, or the number of days the contract was in
force before the default began, if less. The number of extra days will be (1)
90, or the number of days the contract was in force before the default began, if
less, minus (2) the number of days of extended insurance that would be provided
by the net cash value if there were no contract debt. The extra days, if any,
start on the day after the last day of term insurance provided by the net cash
value, if any. If there is no such term insurance, the extra days start on the
day the contract goes into default. The term insurance for the extra days has no
cash value. There will be no extra days if you replace the extended insurance
with variable reduced paid-up insurance or you surrender the contract before the
extra days start.
Variable Reduced Paid-up Insurance.--This will be paid-up variable life
insurance on the Insured's life. The death benefit may change from day to day,
as we explain below, but if there is no contract debt, it will not be less than
a minimum guarantee amount determined as of the day when the contract went into
default. There will be cash values and loan values.
The minimum guaranteed amount of insurance will be computed by using the net
cash value at the net single premium rate. The net single premium rate depends
on the Insured's issue age and sex and on the length of time since the contract
date. The amount payable in event of death thereafter will be the greater of (a)
the minimum guaranteed amount and (b) the contract fund divided by the net
single premium at the Insured's attained age. In either case the amount will be
adjusted for any contract debt.
Except when it is provided as the automatic benefit, (see below), the variable
reduced paid-up insurance option will be available only when the guaranteed
death benefit under the option will be $5000 or more.
Computations.--We will make all computations for either of these benefits as of
the date the contract goes into default. But we will consider any loan you take
out or pay back or any premium payments or partial withdrawals you make in the
days of grace.
Automatic Benefit.--When the contract is in default, it will stay in force as
extended insurance. But it will stay in force as variable reduced paid-up
insurance if either of these statements applies: (1) We issued the contract in a
rating class for which we do not provide extended insurance; in this case the
phrase No Extended Insurance is in the Rating Class on page 3. (2) The amount of
reduced paid-up insurance would be at least as great as the amount of term
insurance.
Optional Benefit.--You may choose to replace any fixed extended insurance that
has a net cash value by variable reduced paid-up insurance. To make this choice,
you must do so in writing to us in a form that meets our needs, not more than
three months after the date the contract goes into default. You must also send
the contract to us to be endorsed.
Cash Value Option.--You may surrender this contract for its net cash value. The
net cash value at any time is the cash value at that time less any contract
debt. To surrender this contract, you must ask us in writing in a form that
meets our needs. You must also send the contract to us. Here is how we will
compute the cash value for surrender of the contract or for its continuation
under extended insurance or variable reduced paid-up insurance:
1. If the contract is not in default: The cash value on surrender at any time in
the first ten contract years is the
(Continued on Next Page.
Page 13 (VALA--84)
CONTRACT VALUE OPTIONS (Continued)
contract fund, minus a surrender charge, consisting of a deferred sales charge
and a deferred underwriting and issue charge. The cash value on surrender at the
end of the 10th contract year or later is the contract fund.
A schedule of maximum surrender charges for this contract is on page 3A.
In no event will the deferred sales charge upon surrender be greater than 25% of
scheduled premiums due in contract year 1, plus 5% of the scheduled premiums due
in contract years 2 through 5. For the purpose of computing this limit we use
the lesser of premiums due and premiums paid.
For a paid-up contract that includes extra benefits, the cash value is the
amount described above, plus the cash value, if any, of the extra benefits. (See
the description of any such extra benefits following page 20.)
2. If the contract is in default during the days of grace: We will compute the
net cash value as of the date the contract went into default. But we will adjust
this value for any loan you take out or pay back or any premium payments or
partial withdrawals you make in the days of grace.
3. If the contract is in default beyond its days of grace: The net cash value as
of any date will be the value on that date of any extended insurance benefit
then in force. Or it will be the value on that date of any variable reduced
paid-up insurance benefit then in force, less any contract debt.
Within 30 days of a contract anniversary, the net cash value of any extended
insurance will not be less than the value on that anniversary.
If the contract is not in default past the days of grace, or if the contract is
in force as variable reduced paid up insurance, we will usually pay any cash
value within 7 days after we receive your request and the contract at our
Service Office. But we have the right to defer payment if (1) the New York Stock
Exchange is closed; or (2) the SEC requires that trading be restricted or
declares an emergency; or (3) the SEC lets us defer payments to protect our
contract owners.
If the contract is in force as extended insurance we have the right to postpone
paying a cash value for up to six months. If we do so for more than 30 days, we
will pay interest at the rate of 3% a year.
Tabular Values.--In the table on page 4 we show tabular contract fund and
tabular cash values at the end of the contract years. The tabular contract fund
values are the amount which will then be in the contract fund, (see page 11,) if
all scheduled premiums have been paid on their due dates, there have been no
unscheduled premiums paid, there is no contract debt, the subaccounts you have
chosen earn exactly the assumed rate of return, and we have deducted the maximum
mortality charges. The tabular cash values are the amounts which, under the same
conditions, will then be used to provide extended insurance or variable reduced
paid-up insurance or will be paid in cash, if the maximum surrender charges are
applied. The tabular cash value shown is equal to the tabular contract fund
value as of the same date after deducting any surrender charges (at the maximum
rate) from the tabular contract fund value. (See Cash Value Option above.) Since
surrender charges are not deducted after the end of the 10th contract year, the
tabular cash values are the same as the tabular contract fund values thereafter.
If we need to compute tabular values at some time during a contract year, we
will count the time since the start of the year. We will let you know the
tabular values for other durations if you ask for them.
Page 14 (VALA-84)
LOANS
Loan Requirements.--After the first anniversary, you may borrow from us on the
contract. All these conditions must be met:
1. The Insured is living.
2. The contract is in force other than as extended insurance.
3. The contract debt will not be more than the loan value. (We explain these
terms below.)
4. As sole security for the loan, you assign the contract to us in a form that
meets our needs.
5. Except when used to pay premiums on this contract, the amount you borrow at
any one time must be at least $500.
If there is already contract debt when you borrow from us, we will add the new
amount you borrow to that debt.
Contract Debt.--Contract debt at any time means the loan on the contract, plus
the interest we have charges that is not yet due and that we have not yet added
to the loan.
Loan Value.--You may borrow any amount up to the difference between the loan
value and any existing contract debt. At any time the loan value is 90% of the
net cash value.
There is one exception. If the contract is in default, the loan value during the
days of grace is what it was on the date of default.
Example 1: Suppose the contract has a loan value of $6,000. About eight months
ago you borrowed $1,500. By now there is interest of $55 charged but not yet
due. The contract debt is now $1,555, which is made up of the $1,500 loan and
the $55 interest.
Example 2: Suppose, in example 1, you want to borrow all that you can. We will
lend out $4,445 which is the difference between the $6,000 loan value and the
$1,555 contract debt. This will increase the contract debt to $6,000. We will
add the new amount borrowed to the existing loan and will charge interest on it,
too.
Interest Charge.--We will charge interest daily on any loan at the effective
rate of 5 1/2% a year. Interest is due on each contract anniversary, or when the
loan is paid back if that comes first. If interest is not paid when due, it will
become part of the loan. Then we will start to charge interest on it, too.
Example 3: Suppose the contract date is 1987. Six months before the anniversary
in 1996 you borrow $1,600 out of a $4,000 loan value. We charge 5 1/2% a year.
Three months later, but still three months before the anniversary, we will have
charges about $22 interest. This amount will be a few cents more or less than
$22 since some months have more days than others. The interest will not be due
until the anniversary unless the load is paid back sooner. The loan will still
be $1,600. The contract debt will be $1,622, since contract debt included
interest charged but not yet due.
On the anniversary in 1996 we will have charged about $44 interest. The interest
will then be due.
Example 4: Suppose the $44 interest in example 3 was paid on the anniversary.
The loan and contract debt each became $1,600 right after the payment.
Example 5: Suppose the $44 interest in example 3 was not paid on the
anniversary. The interest became part of the loan, and we began to charge
interest on it, too. The loan and contract debt each became $1,644.
Repayment.--All or part of any contract debt may be paid back at any time while
the Insured is living. When we settle the contract, any contract debt is due us.
If there is contract debt at the end of the last day of grace when the contract
is in default, it will be deducted from the cash value to determine the net cash
value. We will make this adjustment so that the proceeds will not include the
amount of that debt.
Effect of a Loan.--When you take a loan, the amount of the loan continues to be
a part of the contract fund and is credited with interest at the guaranteed rate
of 4% a year. However, we will reduce the investment amount by the amount you
borrow, and by loan interest that becomes part of the loan because it is not
paid when due. On each Monthly Date, if there is a contract loan outstanding, we
will increase the investment amount by interest credits accrued on the loan at
4% a year since the last Monthly Date. When you repay part or all of a loan we
will increase the investment amount by the amount of loan you repay, plus, if
you repay all the loan, interest credits accrued on the loan at 4% a year since
the last Monthly Date. We will not increase the investment amount by loan
interest that is paid before we make it part of the loan.
We will allocate loans and repayments among the subaccounts in proportion to the
investment amount in each subaccount as of the date of the loan or repayment.
Only the amount of the investment amount will reflect the investment results of
the subaccounts. Since the amount you borrow is removed from the investment
amount, a loan may have a permanent effect on the net cash value of this
contract, and also, for a contract which is paid-up or which is in force under
the variable reduced paid-up option, on any death benefit in excess of the
guaranteed death benefit. The longer the loan is outstanding, the greater this
effect is likely to be.
(Continued on Next Page)
Page 15 (VALA--84)
LOANS (Continued)
Example 6: Suppose the contract's investment amount is $15,000 and that $10,000
is in subaccount A and $5,000 is in subaccount B. If you make a $9,000 loan we
will reduce the amount in subaccount A by $6,000 and the amount in subaccount B
by $3,000.
Suppose that sometime later, when the investment amount in each of the two
subaccounts is the same you choose to repay the $9,000 loan. We will add $4,500
to the amount in each subaccount.
Excess Contract Debt.--If contract debt ever becomes equal to or more than the
cash value, all the contract's benefits will end 61 days after we mail a notice
to you and any assignee of whom we know. Also, we may send a notice to the
Insured's last known address. In the notice we will state the amount that, if
paid to us, will keep the contract's benefits from ending for a limited time.
Postponement of Loan.--We will usually make a loan within 7 days after we
receive your request at our Service Office. But we have the right to defer
making the loan if (1) the New York Stock Exchange is closed; or (2) the SEC
requires that trading be restricted or declares an emergency; or (3) the SEC
lets us defer payments to protect our contract owners.
EXCHANGE OF CONTRACT
Right to Exchange.--Before the second anniversary you may exchange this contract
for a new contract of fixed benefit insurance on the Insured's life. You will
not have to prove to us that the Insured is insurable. Also, you may make such
an exchange at any time if there is a material change in the investment policy
of a portfolio (see Change in Investment Policy on page 10). When we use the
term new contract we mean the contract for which this contract may be exchanged.
Conditions.--Your right to make this exchange is subject to all these
conditions: (1) You must ask for the exchange in writing in a form that meets
our needs. (2) You must surrender the contract to us. (3) We must have your
request and the contract at our Service office while the contract is in force
and not in default past its days of grace. (4) You must pay back any contract
debt under this contract, to the extent it may exceed the loan value of the new
contract. (5) You must pay any other charges required for the exchange.
Exchange Date.--The exchange date will be the later of: (1) the date we receive
the contract and our request at our Service Office; and (2) the date we receive
the payment, if any, required for the exchange. The new contract will take
effect on the exchange date only if the Insured is then living. If the new
contract takes effect, this contract will end just before the exchange date.
Contract Specifications.--The new contract will be on the Modified Premium Whole
Life plan. It will have a face amount equal to the face amount of this one. It
will have the same contract date and issue age as this contract and be in the
same rating class.
If, for any reason, we are not issuing the Modified Premium Whole Life Contract
on the exchange dates, then the new contract will be another life plan that we
would regularly issue on that date for the same rating class, amount, issue, age
and sex.
This contract might include an extra benefit which is still in effect just
before the exchange date. And a similar kind of benefit might have been
regularly offered in contracts like the new one on the date the extra benefit
took effect in this contract. In that case, if you ask for it in your request
for the exchange, that similar kind of benefit will be put in the new contract.
When we use the phrase contracts like the new one, we mean contracts that were,
on the contract date of this contract, regularly issued on the same plan as the
new one and for the same rating class, amount, issue age and sex.
The amount of any accidental death benefit included in the new contract in
accord with this provision will be the same as the amount of any accidental
death benefit in this contract.
If a benefit for waiving scheduled premiums is included in the new contract in
accord with this provision, any scheduled premiums to be waived under the new
contract for a disability that began before the exchange date must be at the
billing frequency that applied to this contract when the disability started. But
premiums will not be waived under the new contract unless it has a benefit for
waiving premiums in the event of disability. This will be so even if we have
waived premiums under this contract.
A charge may be made on exchange in the following situation: If, on the date of
exchange, the contract fund of this contract is less than the tabular contract
fund, a charge will be made for the difference in the two amounts. If the

SETTLEMENT OPTIONS
Payee Defined.--In these provisions and under the Automatic Mode of Settlement,
the word Payee means a person who has a right to receive a settlement under the
contract. Such a person may be the Insured, the owner, a beneficiary, or a
contingent payee.
Choosing an Option.--While the Insured is living you may choose, or change the
choice of, an option for all or part of the proceeds that may arise from the
Insured's death. The requirements are the same as those to designate or change a
beneficiary. We describe them under Beneficiary.
A payee may choose an option for all or part of any proceeds or residue that
becomes payable to him or her in one sum. We describe residue later on this
page.
In some cases, you or another Payee will need our consent to choose an option.
We describe these cases under conditions.
Options Described.--Here are the options we offer. We may also consent to other
arrangements.
Option 1 (Instalments for a Fixed Period).--We will make equal payments for up
to 25 years based on the Option 1 Table. The payments will include interest at
an effective rate of 3 1/2% a year. We may credit more interest. If and while we
do so, the payments will be larger.
Option 2 (Life Income).--We will make equal monthly payments for as long as the
person on whose life the settlement is based lives, with payments certain for
the period chosen. The choices are either ten years (10-Year Certain) or until
the sum of the payments equals the amount put under this option (Instalment
Refund). The amount of each payment will be based on the Option 2 Table and on
the sex and age, on the due date of the first payment, of the person on whose
life the settlement is based. But if a choice is made more than two years after
the Insured's death, we may use the Option 2 payment rates in individual annuity
contracts or life insurance contracts we regularly issue, based on United States
currency, on the due date of the first payment. On request, we will quote the
payment rates in contracts we then issue. We must have proof of the date of
birth of the person on whose life the settlement is based. If on the due date of
the first payment under this option, we have declared a higher payment rate
under the option, we will base the payments on that higher rate.
Option 3 (Interest Payment).--We will hold an amount at interest. We will pay
interest at an effective rate of at lease 3% a year ($30.00 annually, $14.89
semi-annually, $7.42 quarterly or $2.47 monthly per $1,000). We may pay more
interest.
Option 4 (Instalments of a Fixed Amount).--We will make equal annual,
semi-annual, quarterly or monthly payments if they total at least $90 a year for
each $1,000 put under this option. We will credit the unpaid balance with
interest at an effective rate of at least 3 1/2% a year. We may credit more
interest. If we do so, the balance will be larger. The final payment will be any
balance equal to or less than one payment.
First Payment Due Date.--Unless a different date is stated when the option is
chosen: (1) the first payment for Option 3 will be due at the end of the chosen
payment interval; and (2) the first payment for any of the other options will be
due on the date the option takes effect.
Residue Described.--For Options 1 and 2, residue on any date means the then
present value of any unpaid payments certain. We will compute it at an effective
interest rate of 3 1/2% a year. But we will use the interest rate we used to
compute the actual Option 2 payments if they were not based on the table in this
contract.
For Options 3 and 4, residue on any date means any unpaid balance with interest
to that date.
For option 2, residue does not include the value of any payment that may become
due after the certain period.

SETTLEMENT OPTIONS (Continued)
Withdrawal of Residue.--Unless otherwise stated when the option is chosen: (1)
under Options 1 and 2 the residue may be withdrawn; and (2) under Options 3 and
4 all, or any part not less than $100, of the residue may be withdrawn. If an
Option 3 residue is reduced to less than $1,000, we have the right to pay it in
one sum. Under Option 2, withdrawal of the residue will not affect any payments
that may become due after the certain period; the value of those payments cannot
be withdrawn. Instead, the payments will start again if they were based on the
life of a person who lives past the certain period.
Designating Contingent Payee(s).--A Payee under an option has the right, unless
otherwise stated, to name or change a contingent payee to receive any residue at
that Payee's death. This may be done only if (1) the Payee has the full right to
withdraw the residue; or (2) the residue would otherwise have been payable to
that Payee's estate at death.
A Payee who has this right may choose, or change the choice of, an option for
all or part of the residue. In some cases, the Payee will need our consent to
choose or change an option. We describe these cases under Conditions.
Any request to exercise any of these rights must be in writing and in a form
that meets our needs. It will take effect only when we file it at our Service
Office. Then the interest of anyone who is being removed will end as of the date
of the request, even if the Payee who made the request is not living when we
file it.
Changing Options.--A payee under Option 1, 3 or 4 may choose another option for
any sum that the Payee could withdraw on the date the chosen option is to start.
That date may be before the date the Payee makes the choice only if we consent.
In some cases, the Payee will need our consent to choose or change an option. We
describe these cases next.
Conditions.--Under any of these conditions, our consent is needed for an option
to be used for any person:
1. The person is not a natural person who will be paid in his or her own right.
2. The person will be paid as assignee.
3. The amount to be held for the person under Option 3 is less than $1,000. But
we will hold any amount for at lease one year in accord with the Automatic Mode
of Settlement.
4. Each payment to the person under the option would be less than $20.
5. The option is for residue arising other than at (a) the Insured's death, or
(b) the death of the beneficiary who was entitled to be paid as of the date of
the Insured's death.
6. The option is for proceeds that arise other than from the Insured's death,
and we are settling with an owner or any other person who is not the Insured.
Death of Payee.--If a Payee under an option dies and if no other distribution is
shown, we will pay any residue under that option in one sum to the Payee's
estate.

Page 19 (VALA--84)
AUTOMATIC MODE OF SETTLEMENT
Applicability.--These provisions apply to proceeds arising from the Insured's
death and payable in one sum to a Payee who is a beneficiary. They do not apply
to any periodic payment.
Interest on Proceeds.--We will hold the proceeds at interest under Option 3 of
the Settlement Options provision. The Payee may withdraw the residue. We will
pay it promptly on request. We will pay interest annually unless we agree to pay
it more often. We have the right to pay the residue in one sum after one year if
(1) the Payee is not a natural person who will be paid in his or her own right;
(2) the Payee will be paid as assignee; or (3) the original amount we hold under
Option 3 for the Payee is less than $1,000.
Settlement at Payee's Death.--If the Payee dies and leaves an option 3 residue,
we will honor any contingent payee provision then in effect. If there is none,
here is what we will do. We will look to the beneficiary designation of the
contract; we will see what other beneficiary(ies), if any, would have been
entitled to the portion of the proceeds that produced the Option 3 residue if
the Insured had not died until immediately after the Payee died. Then we will
pay the residue in one sum to such other beneficiary(ies), in accord with that
designation. But if, as stated in that designation, payment would be due the
estate of someone else, we will instead pay the estate of the Payee.
Example: Suppose the class 1 beneficiary is Xxxx and the class 2 beneficiaries
are Xxxx and Xxxx. Xxxx was living when the Insured died. Xxxx later died
without having chosen an option or naming someone other than Xxxx and Xxxx as
contingent payee. If Xxxx and Xxxx are living at Jane's death we own them the
residue. If only one of them is living then, and if the contract called for
payment to the survivor of them, we owe him the residue. If neither of them is
living then, we owe Jane's estate.
Spendthrift and Creditor.--A beneficiary or contingent payee may not, at or
after the Insured's death, assign, transfer, or encumber any benefit payable. To
the extent allowed by law, the benefits will not be subject to the claims of any
creditor of any beneficiary or contingent payee.

BASIS OF COMPUTATION
Mortality Tables Described.--Except as we state in the next paragraph, (1) we
base all net premium and net values to which we refer in this contract on the
Insured's issue age and sex and on the length of time since the contract date;
(2) we use the Commissioners 1980 Standard Ordinary Mortality Table; and (3) we
use continuous functions based on age last birthday.
For extended insurance, we base net premiums and net values on the Commissioners
1980 Extended Term Insurance Table.
Interest Rate.--For all net premium and net values to which we refer in this
contract we use an effective rate of 4% a year.
Exclusions.--When we compute net values we exclude the value of any
Supplementary Benefits and any other extra benefits added by rider to this
contract.
Values After 20 Contract Years.--Tabular values after the 20th contract year
will be the net level premium reserves, taking into account the increase in
scheduled premium amount on the Contract Change Date. To compute them, we will
use the mortality tables and interest rate we describe above. There will be the
same exclusions.
Minimum Legal Values.--The cash, loan and other values in this contract are at
least as large as those set by law where it is delivered. Where required, we
have given the insurance regulator a detailed statement of how we compute values
and benefits.

CONTRACT SUMMARY
We offer this summary to help you understand this contract. We do not intend
that it change any of the provisions of the contract.
This is a contract of life insurance. Premiums are to be paid throughout the
Insured's lifetime. We specify a schedule of premiums that will keep the
contract in force. Additional premiums may be paid at your option, subject to
limits in the contract. The death benefit and the cash value will vary with the
payment of premiums, the investment performance of those subaccounts of the
Pruco Life Variable Appreciable Account that you select, and the extent to which
mortality charges are less than the guaranteed maximums. But the death benefit
is guaranteed never to be less than the face amount if the contract is not in
default past its days of grace, and there is no contract debt. (We describe on
page 8 the way the contract can go into default.) If the contract remains in
default past its days of grace, the contract may end or it may stay in force
with reduced benefits. If either occurs, you may be able to reinstate its full
benefits. On the date, if any, when we determine that the contract has become
fully paid-up, we will recompute the guaranteed death benefit. It may be higher,
it will not be lower. We describe on page 9 how the contract may become paid-up.
Proceeds is a word we use to mean the amount we would pay if we were to settle
the contract in one sum. to compute the proceeds that may arise from the
Insured's death, we start with a basic amount. We may adjust that amount if
there is a loan or if the contract is in default. The table on page 21 tells
what the basic amount is. The amount depends on how the contract is in force.
The table will refer you to the parts of the contract that tell you how we
adjust the basic amount. If you surrender the contract, the proceeds will be the
net cash value. We describe it under Cash Value Option on pages 13 and 14.
Proceeds often are not taken in one sum. For instance, on surrender, you may be
able to put proceeds under a settlement option to provide retirement income or
for some other purpose. Also, for all or part of the proceeds that arise from
the Insured's death, you may be able to choose a manner of payment for the
beneficiary. If an option has not been chosen, the beneficiary may be ale to
choose one. We will pay interest under Option 3 from the date of death on any
proceeds to which no other manner of payment applies. This will be automatic as
we state on page 20. There is no need to ask for it.
You and we may agree on a change in the ownership of this contract. Also, unless
we endorse it to say otherwise, the contract gives you these rights, among
others:
o You may change the beneficiary under it.
o You may borrow on it up to its loan value.
o You may surrender it for its net cash value.
o You may change the allocation of future net premiums among the subaccounts.
o You may transfer amounts among subaccounts.
The contract, as issued, may or may not have extra benefits that we call
Supplementary Benefits. If it does, we list them under Supplementary Benefits on
the Contract Data page(s) and describe them after page 21. The contract may or
may not have other extra benefits. If it does, we add them by rider. Any extra
benefit ends as soon as the contract is in default past its days of grace,
unless the form that describes it states otherwise.

The Contract.--This policy and the application, a copy of which is attached,
form the whole contract. We assume that all statements in the application ere
made to the best of the knowledge and belief of the person(s) who made them; in

(Continued on Next Page)
page 5 (VALB--84)
GENERAL PROVISIONS (Continued)
Misstatement of Age or Sex.--If the Insured's stated age or sex or both are not
correct, we will adjust each benefit and any amount to be paid to reflect the
correct age and sex. Where required, we have given the insurance regulator a
detailed statement of how we will make these changes.
The Schedule of Premiums may show that scheduled premiums change or stop on a
certain date. We may have used that date because the Insured would attain a
certain age on that date. If we find that the issue age was wrongs, we will
correct that date.
Incontestability.--Except for default, we will not contest this contract after
it has been in force during the Insured's lifetime for two years from the issue
date.
Assignment.--We will not be deemed to know of an assignment unless we receive
it, or a copy of it, at our Service Office. We are not obliged to see that an
assignment is valid or sufficient.
Annual Report.--Each year we will send you a report. It will show: (1) the
current death benefit; (2) the investment amount; (3) the amount of investment
amount in each subaccount; (4) the net cash value; (5) premiums paid and monthly
charges deducted since the last report; (6) any partial withdrawals since the
last report; and (7) any contract debt and the interest on the debt for the
prior year. The report will also include any other data that may be currently
required where this contract is delivered. No report will be sent if this
contract is being continued under extended term insurance.
You may ask for a similar report at some other time during the year. Or you may
request from time to time a report projecting results under your contract on the
basis of premium payment assumptions and assumed investment results. We have the
right to make a reasonable charge for reports such as these that you ask for,
and to limit the scope and frequency of such reports.
Increase in Face Amount at Age 21 for Contracts Issued at Age 14 or Lower.--If
this contract was issued at age 14 or lower, it shows on page 3 an increase in
face amount at attained age 21, which applies if the contract is not then in
default beyond its days of grace. If so, any references in the contract to face
amount or death benefit which apply at or after attained age 21 will be based
upon the increased face amount, unless otherwise stated.
Death Proceeds.--The Table of Basic Amounts on page 21 describes how the
proceeds payable at death will be determined, depending on the status of the
contract at the time of death. In addition to what is shown in that table, a
special situation will apply in those cases where all of these conditions exist:
(a) the contract was issued at an age below 15; (b) death occurs before attained
age 21; (c) the contract is on a premium paying basis and not in default past
its days of grace; (d) the contract fund is not sufficient to make the contract
paid up for the ultimate face amount plus the excess of the contract fund over
the tabular contract fund; (e) the contract fund is greater than the sum of (I)
the net single premium for the initial face amount, (ii) the net single premium
for the excess of the contract fund over the tabular contract fund, and (iii)
the present value, discounted at a rate we set from time to time but no less
than 4% a year, of all future charges for extra benefits other than those which
do not continue after a contract such as this becomes paid up. (See above and
paid-up Contract, page 9.)
In these cases, the Basic mount will not be as described on page 21 but will be
the total of (1) the initial face amount, plus (2) the excess of the contract
fund over the tabular contract fund, plus (3) the amount which results from
dividing the contract fund, minus the present value of the future charges for
extra benefits referred to above, minus the net single premium for the sum of
the initial face amount and the excess of the contract fund over the tabular
contract fund, by the net single premium at the then attained age, plus (4) the
amount of any extra benefits.
Payment of Death Claim.--If we settle this contract in one sum as a death claim,
we will usually pay the proceeds within 7 days after we receive at our Service
Office proof of death and any other information we need to pay the claim. But we
have the right to defer paying any portion of the proceeds greater than the
minimum guaranteed death benefit if (1) the New York Stock Exchange is closed;
or (2) the SEC requires that trading be restricted or declares an emergency; or
(3) the SEC lets us defer payment to protect our contract owners.
Page 6 (VALB-84)
PREMIUM PAYMENT AND REINSTATEMENT
Payment of Premiums.--Premiums may be paid at our Service Office or to any of
our authorized representatives. If we are asked to do so, we will give a signed
receipt.
Premium payments will in most cases be credited as of the date of receipt, to
both the contract fund and the premium account. (See Contract Fund, page 11 and
Premium Account, page 8.) Premium credits to the contract fund are the invested
premium amounts, (see page 11). Premium credits to the premium account are the
full premium paid with n deductions. But in the following cases, to the extent
states premium payments will be credited as of a date other than the date of
receipt:
1. The first scheduled premium is due on the Contract Date. But if the first
premium payment is received after the Contract Date, the scheduled portion will
be credited to the contract fund and the premium account as of the Contract
Date. And any portion of that first premium payment in excess of the first
scheduled premium will be credited as of the date of receipt. If the first
premium is received before the Contract Date, the entire payment will be
credited as of the Contract Date.
2. If a premium payment is received during the 61 day period after the day when
a scheduled premium was due and had not yet been paid, here is what we will do.
We will determine whether the premium account, (see Premium Account below), just
before receipt of that payment was a negative amount. If not--that is, if the
premium account was zero or higher--the premium payment will be credited as of
the date of receipt. But if the premium account was negative by no more than the
scheduled premium on the due date, that portion of the premium payment required
to bring the premium account up to zero will be credited to the premium account
as of the due date; any remaining portion of the premium payment will be
credited to the premium account as of the date of receipt. If the premium
account is negative by more than the scheduled premium than due, the premium
payment will be credited as of the date of receipt, except in the situation
described in 3 below.
3. On each Monthly Date we will determine if the contract fund is in default.
(See Default on page 8.) We will notify you on the minimum payment amount needed
to bring the contract out of default. If one or more premium payments are made
during the days of grace after that monthly date, (see Grace period on page 8,)
we will credit to the contract fund and the premium account, as of the
applicable Monthly Dates, such parts of the payments as are needed to end the
default status; any remaining part of those premium payments will be credited to
the contract fund and premium account as of the date of receipt.
Scheduled Premiums.--We show the amount and frequency of the scheduled premiums
in the Schedule of Premiums. The first scheduled premium is due on the contract
date. There is no insurance under this contract unless an amount at least equal
to the first scheduled premium is paid.
The scheduled premium shown is the minimum required, at the frequency chosen, to
continue the contract in full force if all scheduled premiums are paid when due,
investment returns are at the rate assumed, we deduct mortality charges at no
less than the maximum rate, and any contract debt does not exceed the cash
value.
If you wish to pay, on a regular basis, higher premiums than the amount of the
scheduled premium, we will xxxx you for the higher amount you choose.
If scheduled premiums that are due are not paid, or if smaller payments are
made, the contract may then or at some future time go into default. The
conditions under which default will exist are described below:
Unscheduled Premiums.--Except as we state in the next paragraph, unscheduled
premiums may be paid at any time during the Insured's lifetime, as long as the
contract is not in default beyond its days of grace. We show on page 3 the
minimum premium we will accept. We have the right to limit unscheduled premiums
to a total of $10,000 in any contract year.
If we determine at any time that investment returns above the rate assumed, or
smaller than maximum mortality charges or greater than scheduled premium
payments have made the contract paid-up, we have the right not to accept any
further premium payments, or to limit the amount or frequency of premium
payments thereafter. (See Paid-up Contract, page 9.)
Premium Change on Contract Change Date.--We show the Contract Change Date, in
the Contract Data on page 3. We also show in the Schedule of Premiums on page 3
that the amount of each scheduled premium will change on the Contract Change
Date and what the new premium will be. However, when the Contract Change Date
arrives we will recompute a new premium amount to be used in calculating the
premium account. The new premium that we recompute will be no greater than the
new premium for that date which we show on page 3. In addition, if the premium
account is less than zero, we will set the premium account to zero.
The Schedule of Premiums may also show that the premium changes at other times.
This may occur, for example, with a contract issued with extra benefits or in an
extra rating class if, I either case, this calls for a higher or extra premium
for a limited period of time.
(Continued on Next Page)
Page 7 (VALB-84)
PREMIUM PAYMENT AND REINSTATEMENT (Continued)
Default.--Unless the contract is already in the grace period, (see below), on
each monthly date, after we deduct any charges from the contract fund (which we
describe on page 11) and add any credits to it, we will determine whether the
contract is in default. To do so we will compute the amount which will accrue to
the tabular contract fund on the next monthly date if, during the current
contract month; (1) investment returns are at the assumed rate; and (2) we make
the other charges and credit we have set, including interest on contract debt;
and (3) we receive no premiums or loan repayments and make no more loans or
grant no partial withdrawals. We will subtract this amount from the contract
fund. If the result is zero or more, (that is, not a negative amount,) the
contract is not in default. But if there is a fund deficit -that is, if the
result is less than zero--the contract is in default if the premium account,
which we define below, is also less than zero.
Grace Period.--We grant 61 days of grace from any monthly date (other than the
contract date) on which the contract goes into default. During the days of grace
we will continue to accept premiums and make the charges we have set. If the
monthly date was a scheduled premium due date, when we receive a premium payment
during the days of grace we will first determine whether it satisfies case 2
under Payment of Premiums above. If it does, the default will end. If it does
not, or if the monthly date when the contract went into default was not a
scheduled premium due date, here is what we will do:
If at any time during the days of grace, we have received payments that in total
are at least equal to the lesser of (a) the sum of the fund deficit, (that is,
the amount by which the contract fund is below the tabular contract fund,) on
the date of default and any subsequent Monthly Date, and (b) the sum of the
amount by which the premium account is negative on the date of default and any
scheduled premiums due since the date of default, the default will end.
If the contract is still in default when the days of grace are over, it will end
and have no value, except as we state under contract Value Options, (which we
describe on page 13).
Premium Account.--On the contract date, the premium account is equal to the
premium received on that date minus the scheduled premium then due. On any other
day, the premium account is equal to:
1. what it was on the prior day; plus
2. if the premium account was greater than zero on the prior day, interest on
the excess at 4% year, minus
3. if the premium account was less than zero on the prior day, interest o the
deficit at 4% a year; plus
4. any premium received on that day; minus
5. any scheduled premium due on that day; minus
6. any partial withdrawals on that day.
The contract might be in default, as described above. If so, the premium account
is a negative amount, less than zero. If a premium payment is received on any
day during the days of grace while the contract is in default and the premium
account is negative by no more than one scheduled premium, that payment, to the
extent that it is required to bring the premium account up to zero, will, as we
describe under Payment of Premiums above, be credited to the premium account as
of the monthly date when the scheduled premium, was due, whether the date of
default or a subsequent monthly date. Any remaining portion of the premium
payment will be credited s of the actual date of receipt. In this case the
premium account for all days from the monthly date to the actual date of receipt
will be recalculated.
Reinstatement.--If this contract ends as we describe under Grace Period, you may
reinstate it, if all these conditions are met:
1. No more than three years must have elapsed since the date of default.
2. You must mot have surrendered the contract for its net cash value.
3. You must give us any facts we need to satisfy us that the insured is
insurable for the contract.
4. We must be paid a premium at least equal to the amount required to bring the
premium account up to zero on the first monthly date on which a scheduled
premium is de after the date of reinstatement. From this amount we will deduct
$2, plus 7 1/2% of the remaining payment, plus any charges with interest for any
extra benefits, plus any other expense charges with interest. The contract fund
will be equal to the balance, plus the cash value of the contract immediately
before reinstatement, plus a refund of that part of any surrender charge paid at
the time of default which would be charges if the contract were surrendered
immediately after reinstatement.
5. If before reinstatement the contract is in force as reduced paid-up insurance
(see page 13) any contract debt under reduced paid-up insurance must be repaid
with interest or carried over to the reinstated contract.
If we approve the reinstatement, these statements apply. The date of
reinstatement will be the date of your request or the date the required premium
is paid, if later. And we will start to make daily and monthly charges and
credits again as of the date of reinstatement.
Page 8 (VALB-84)
BENEFICIARY
You may designate or change a beneficiary. Your request must be in writing and
in a form that meets our needs. It will take effect only when we file it at our
Service Office; this will be after you send the contract to us to be endorsed,
if we ask you to do so. Then any previous beneficiary's interest will end as of
the date of the request. It will end then even if the Insured is not living when
we file the request. Any beneficiary's interest is subject to the rights of any
assignee of whom we know.
When a beneficiary is designated, any relationship shown is to the Insured,
unless otherwise stated. To show priority, we may use numbered classes, so that
the class with first priority is called class 1, the class with next priority is
called class 2, and so on. When we use numbered classes, these statements apply
to beneficiaries unless the form states otherwise:
1. One who survives the Insured will have the right to be paid only if no one in
a prior class survives the Insured.
2. One who has the right to be paid will be the only one paid if no one else in
the same class survives the Insured.
3. Two or more in the same class who have the right to be paid will be paid in
equal shares.
4. If none survives the Insured, we will pay in one sum to the Insured's estate.
Example: Suppose the class 1 beneficiary is Xxxx and the class 2 beneficiaries
are Xxxx and Xxxx. We owe Xxxx the proceeds if she is living at the Insured's
death. We owe Xxxx and Xxxx the proceeds if they are living then but Xxxx is
not. But if only one of them is living, we owe him the proceeds. If none of them
is living we owe the Insured's estate.
Beneficiaries who do not have a right to be paid under these terms may still
have a right to be paid under the Automatic Mode of Settlement.
Before we make a payment, we have the right to decide what proof we need of the
identity, age or any other facts about any persons designated as beneficiaries.
If beneficiaries are not designated by name and we make payment(s) based on that
proof, we will not have to make the payment(s) again.
PAID-UP CONTRACT
This contract will become fully paid-up if and when whichever of the following
situations is applicable occurs:
(a) For a contract issued at an age lower than 15, the contract fund has grown
to an amount at least equal to the net single premium for the sum of the
ultimate face amount and any excess of the contract fund over the tabular
contract fund, (see pages 3 and 4) plus the present value, discounted at a rate
we set from time to time but no less than 4% a year, of all future charges for
any extra benefits which will continue under the paid-up contract.
(b) For a contract issued at age 15 or above, the contract fund has grown to an
amount at least equal to the net single premium for the sum of the face amount
and any excess of the contract fund over the tabular contract fund, (see pages 3
and 4) plus the present value, discounted at a rate we set from time to time but
no less than 4% a year, of all future charges for any extra benefits which will
continue under the paid-up contract.
We will notify you when we determine that the contract has become fully paid-up.
We have the right at that time to return any part of any payment then being made
which is I excess of the amount billed or required to make the contract paid-up.
And we have the right to accept no further premium payments, or to limit the
amount or frequency of premium payments thereafter. The contract will continue
as paid-up life insurance on the Insured's life.
The death benefit under the paid-up contract may change daily, as we explain
below, but if there is no contract debt, it will never be less than the minimum
guaranteed death benefit determined on the day the contract becomes paid-up.
That amount will be no less than the sum of the face amount shown on page 3,
(or, if the contract was issued below age 15, the ultimate face amount,) and the
excess of the contract fund over the tabular contract fund on that day. It will
be computed by using the contract fund on that day, less the present value of
all future charges for any extra benefits, (computed as described above,) at the
net single premium rate. The net single premium rate depends on the Insured's
issue age and sex and on the length of time since the contract date. The amount
payable in event of death thereafter will be the guaranteed death benefit, or if
greater, the contract fund divided by the net single premium at the Insured's
attained age on the date of death. In either case the amount will be adjusted
for any contract debt and for the amount of any paid-up extra benefits.
The monthly charge described on page 12 and shown on page 3A, and any charges
for extra benefits will not be made after the contract becomes paid-up.
Page 9 (VALB-84)
SEPARATE ACCOUNT
The Account.--The word account, where we use it in this contract without
qualification, means the Pruco Life Variable appreciable Account. This is a unit
investment trust registered with the SEC under the Investment Company Act of
1940. It is also subject to the laws of Arizona. We own the assets of the
account; we keep them separate from the assets of our general investment
account. We established the account to support variable life insurance
contracts. But we do not use it to support this contract if the contract is
being continued under extended term insurance. (See page 13.)
Subaccounts.--The account has several subaccounts. We list them on the Contract
Data page(s). You determine, using percentages, how invested premium amounts
will be allocated among the subaccounts. You may choose to allocate nothing to a
particular subaccount. But any allocation you make must be at least 10%; you may
not choose a fractional percent.
Example: You may choose a percentage of 0, or 100, or 10, 11, 12, and so on, up
to 90. But you may not choose a percentage of 1 through 9, or 91 through 99, or
any percent that is not a whole number. The total for all subaccounts must be
100%.
The allocation of invested premium amounts (see page 11,) that took effect on
the contract date is shown in the Contract Data pages. You may change the
allocation for future invested premium amounts at any time if the contract is
not in default. To do so, you must notify us in writing in a form that meets our
needs. The change will take effect on the date we receive your notice at our
Service Office.
A premium might be paid when the investment amount is less than zero. In that
case, when we receive that premium, we first use as much of the invested premium
amount as we need to eliminate the deficit in the investment amount. We will
then allocate any remainder of the invested premium amount in accord with your
most recent request. (We describe investment amount on page 11.)
The Fund.--The word fund, where we use it in this contract without
qualification, means the fund we identify in the Contract Data pages. The fund
is registered with the SEC under the Investment company Act of 1940 as an
open-end diversified management investment company. The fund has several
portfolios; there is a portfolio that corresponds to each of the subaccounts of
the account. We list these portfolios in the Contract Data pages.
Account Investments.--We use the assets of the account to buy shares in the
fund. Each subaccount is invested in a corresponding specific portfolio. Income
and realized and unrealized gains and losses from assets in each subaccount are
credited to, or charged against, the subaccount. This is without regard to
income, gains, or losses in our other investment accounts.
We will determine the value of the assets in the account at the end of each
business day. When we use the term business day, we mean a day when the New York
Stock Exchange is open for trading. We might need to know the value of an asset
on a day that is not a business day or on which trading in that asset does not
take place. In this case, we will use the value of that asset as of the end of
the last prior business day on which trading took place.
Example: If we need to know the value of an asset on a Sunday, we will normally
use the value of the asset as of the end of business on Friday.
We will always keep assets in the account with a total value at least equal to
the amount of the investment amounts under contracts like this one. To the
extent those assets do not exceed this amount, we use them only to support those
contracts; we do not use those assets to support any other business we conduct.
We may use any excess over this amount in any way we choose.
Change in Investment Policy.--A portfolio of the fund might make a material
change in its investment policy. In that case, we will send you a notice of the
change. Within 60 days after you receive the notice, or within 60 days after the
effective date of the change, if later, you may exchange this contract for a new
contract of fixed benefit insurance on the Insured's life. The conditions for
exchange, and the specifications for the new contract, are described under
Exchange of contract on page 16.
Change of Fund.--A portfolio might, in our judgment, become unsuitable for
investment by a subacount. This might happen because of a change in investment
policy, or a change in the laws or regulations, or because the shares are no
longer available for investment, or for some other reason. If that occurs, we
have the right to substitute another portfolio of the fund, or to invest in a
fund other than the one we show on the Contract Data page(s). But we would first
seek approval from the SEC and, where required, the insurance regulator where
this contract is delivered.
Page 10 (VALB-84)
INVESTMENT AMOUNT AND RETURN ON INVESTMENT
Investment Amount.--The investment amount for this contract is the amount we use
to compute the investment return. The investment amount is allocated among the
subaccounts. The amount of the investment amount and its allocation to
subaccounts depend on (1) how you choose to allocate net premiums; (2) whether
or not to transfer amounts among subaccounts, as we discuss below; (3) the
investment performance of the subaccounts to which amounts are allocated or
transferred; (4) the amount and timing of premium payments you make; (5) whether
or not you take any loan; and (6) whether or not you make any partial
withdrawals. The investment amount exists only is the contract is not in default
past the days of grace or if it is being continued as variable reduced paid-up
insurance.
The investment amount at any time is equal to the contract fund, (we explain
this under contract Fund,) minimum the amount of any loan on the contract, minus
interest accrued on the loan at 4% a year since the last Monthly Date (we
explain this under Loans.)
Assumed Rate of Return.--The assumed rate of return is an effective rate of 4% a
year. This is the same as .01074598% a day compounded daily.
Transfers Among Subaccounts.--You may transfer amounts among subaccounts as
often as four times in a contract year, if the contract is not in default or if
the contract is being continued under the variable reduced paid up option. To do
so, you must notify us in writing in a form that meets our needs. The transfer
will take effect on the date we receive your notice at our Service Office.
CONTRACT FUND
Contract Fund Defined.--On the contract date the contract fund is equal to the
invested premium amounts received, (see below), minus any of the charges
described in terms (d) through (j) below which may have been due on that date.
On any day after that the contract fund is equal to what it was on the previous
day, plus any invested premium amount received that day, plus these items.
(a) any increase due to investment results in the value of the subaccounts
to which that portion of the contract fund that is in the investment
amount is allocated; (we explain investment amount above); and
(b) guaranteed interest at 4% a year on that portion of the contract fund
that is not in the investment amount;
and minus these items:
(c) any decrease due to investment results in the value of the subaccounts
to which that portion of the contract fund that is in the investment
amount is allocated;
(d) a charge against the investment amount at a rate of not more than
.00163894% a day (.60% a year) for mortality and expense risks that we
assume;
(e) any amount charged against the investment amount for Federal or State
income taxes;
(f) a monthly charge to guarantee the minimum death benefit;
(g) a charge for the cost of expected mortality;
(h) any charges for extra rating class;
(i) any charges for extra benefits;
(j) a monthly administration charges;
(k) any partial withdrawals; and
(l) if the contract becomes paid-up on that day, the present value of any
future charges for any extra benefits that will continue under the
paid-up contract.
We describe under Reinstatement on page 8 what the contract fund will be equal
to on any reinstatement date.
Invested Premium Amount.--This is the portion of each premium paid that we will
add to the contract fund. It is equal to the premium paid, minus $2, minus
7 1/2% of the rest of the premium. We explain this under Schedule of Expense
Charges from Premium Payments.
Guaranteed Interest Credits.--We will credit interest to the contract fund each
day on any portion of the contract fund on that day which is not in the
investment amount. That portion will be any contract loan plus interest accrued
on the loan at the rate of 4% a year since the last Monthly Date. (See Loans.)
We will credit .01074598% a day, which is an effective rate of 4% a year.
Cost of Expected Mortality.--This charge is computed daily and deducted monthly
from the contract fund, on each Monthly Date. We apply this charge to the
coverage amount. The coverage amount is equal to what the Basic Amount (see page
21) would be if there were no extra benefits, minus the contract fund. Where
required, we have given the insurance regulator a detailed description of the
method we use.
We will not charge more than the maximum guaranteed rates, which are based on
the Insured's sex and attained age and the mortality table described under the
Basis of Computation. We may charge less. At lease once every five years, but
not more often than once a year, we will consider the need to change the
charges. We will change them only if we do so for all contracts like this one
dated in the same year as this one.
(Continued on Next Page)
Page 11 (VALB-84)
CONTRACT FUND (Continued)
Charge for Extra Rating Class.--If there is an extra charge because of the
rating class of the Insured or because the Insured is a cigarette smoker, we
will deduct it from the contract fund at the beginning of each contract month.
Any charge is included in the amount shown in the Contract Data pages under
Schedule of Monthly Deductions from Contract Fund.
Charge for Extra Benefits.--If the contract has extra benefits, we will deduct
the charges for such benefits from the contract fund at the beginning of each
contract month. Charges for any such extra benefits are included in the amount
shown in the Contract Data pages under Schedule of Monthly Deductions from
Contract Fund.
If and when we determine that the contract has become paid-up, we will deduct
from the contract fund the present value of any future charges for any extra
benefits that will continue under the paid-up contract. We will make no further
deductions for these benefits after that. The description of any such benefit
(which can be found following page 20) describes how the future cash value, if
any, of that benefit will be determined.
Monthly Administration Charge and Mortality Risk Charge.--On each monthly date,
we will deduct up to $2.50 plus up to 2c per $1,000 of face amount, from the
contract fund, as a monthly administration charge. We will also deduct 1c per
$1,000 of face amount for guaranteeing the minimum death benefit regardless of
the investment performance of the separate account. (Both of these references to
charges based upon face amount are to initial face amount for contracts issued
below age 15. The total charges do not increase when the face amount increases
at attained age 21.) These charges will be made only while the contract is on a
premium paying basis; they will not be made if the contract becomes paid-up or
is continued as variable reduced paid-up or extended term insurance, (see
Contract Value Options). We show the amount of these charges in the Contract
Date pages under Schedule of Monthly Deductions from Contract Fund.
Partial Withdrawals.--If the cash value of this contract is more than the
tabular cash value, you may be able to make partial withdrawals from the
contract. All these conditions must be met.
(1) The amount withdrawn, plus the net cash value after withdrawal, may not be
more than the net cash value before withdrawal.
(2) The cash value after withdrawal must not be less than the tabular cash
value.
(3) The amount you withdraw must be at least $500.
(4) You may make no more than four withdrawals in a contract year. We will add a
withdrawal fee of $15 to the amount you ask to withdraw;
(5) An amount withdrawn may not be repaid, except as an unscheduled premium
subject to charges.
We will tell you how much you may withdraw if you ask us.
Page 12 (VALB-84)
CONTRACT VALUE OPTIONS
Benefit After the Grace Period.--If the contract is in default beyond its days
of grace, we will use any net cash value (which we describe under Cash Value
Option) to keep the contract in force as one of two kinds of insurance. One kind
is extended insurance. The second kind is variable reduced paid-up insurance. We
describe each below. You will find under Automatic Benefit which kind it will
be. Any extra benefit(s) will end as soon as the contract is in default past its
days of race, unless the form that describes the extra benefit states otherwise.
Extended Insurance.--This will be term insurance of a fixed amount on the
Insured's life. We will pay the amount of term insurance if the Insured dies in
the term we describe below. Before the end of the term there will be cash values
but no loan value.
The amount of term insurance will be the death benefit on the date of default,
minus any part of that death benefit which was provided by extra benefits. The
term is a period of time that will start on the day the contract went into
default. The length of the term will be what is provided when we use the net
cash value at the net single premium rate. This rate depends on the Insured's
issue age and sex and on the length of time since the contract date.
There may be extra days of term insurance. This will occur if, on the day the
contract goes into default, the term of extended insurance provided by the net
cash value does not exceed 90 days, or the number of days the contract was in
force before the default began, if less. The number of extra days will be (1)
90, or the number of days the contract was in force before the default began, if
less, minus (2) the number of days of extended insurance that would be provided
by the net cash value if there were no contract debt. The extra days, if any,
start on the day after the last day of term insurance provided by the net cash
value, if any. If there is no such term insurance, the extra days start on the
day the contract goes into default. The term insurance for the extra days has no
cash value. There will be no extra days if you replace the extended insurance
with variable reduced paid-up insurance or you surrender the contract before the
extra days start.
Variable Reduced Paid-up Insurance.--This will be paid-up variable life
insurance on the Insured's life. The death benefit may change from day to day,
as we explain below, but if there is no contract debt, it will not be less than
a minimum guarantee amount determined as of the day when the contract went into
default. There will be cash values and loan values.
The minimum guaranteed amount of insurance will be computed by using the net
cash value at the net single premium rate. The net single premium rate depends
on the Insured's issue age and sex and on the length of time since the contract
date. The amount payable in event of death thereafter will be the greater of (a)
the minimum guaranteed amount and (b) the contract fund divided by the net
single premium at the Insured's attained age. In either case the amount will be
adjusted for any contract debt.
Except when it is provided as the automatic benefit, (see below), the variable
reduced paid-up insurance option will be available only when the guaranteed
death benefit under the option will be $5000 or more.
Computations.--We will make all computations for either of these benefits as of
the date the contract goes into default. But we will consider any loan you take
out or pay back or any premium payments or partial withdrawals you make in the
days of grace.
Automatic Benefit.--When the contract is in default, it will stay in force as
extended insurance. But it will stay in force as variable reduced paid-up
insurance if either of these statements applies: (1) We issue the contract in a
rating class for which we do not provide extended insurance; in this case the
phrase No Extended Insurance is in the Rating Class on page 3. (2) The amount of
reduced paid-up insurance would be at lease as great as the amount of term
insurance.
Optional Benefit.--You may choose to replace any fixed extended insurance that
has a net cash value by variable reduced paid-up insurance. To make this choice,
you must do so in writing to us in a form that meets our needs, not more than
three months after the date the contract goes into default. You must also send
the contract to us to be endorsed.
Cash Value Option.--You may surrender this contract for its net cash value. The
net cash value at any time is the cash value at that time less any contract
debt. To surrender this contract, you must ask us in writing in a form that
meets our needs. You must also send the contract to us. here is how we will
compute the case value for surrender of the contract or for its continuation
under extended insurance or variable reduced paid-up insurance:
1. If the contract is not in default: The cash value on surrender at any time in
the first ten contract years is the contract fund, minus a surrender charge,
consisting of a deferred sales charge and a deferred underwriting and issue
charge. The cash value on surrender at the end of the tenth contract year or
later is the contract fund.
A schedule of maximum surrender charges for this contract is on page 3A.
(Continued on Next Page.
Page 13 (VALB-84)
CONTRACT VALUE OPTIONS (Continued)
In no event will the deferred sales charge upon surrender be greater than 25% of
scheduled premiums due I contract year 1, plus 5% of the scheduled premiums due
in contract years 2 through 5. For the purpose of computing this limit we use
the lesser of premiums due and premiums paid.
For a paid-up contract that includes extra benefits, the cash value is the
amount described above, plus the cash value, if any, of the extra benefits. (See
the description of any such extra benefits following page 20.(
2. If the contract is in default during the days of grace: We will compute the
net cash value as of the day the contract went into default. But we will adjust
this value for any loan you take out or pay back or any premium payments or
partial withdrawals you make in the days of grace.
3. If the contract is in default beyond its days of grace: The net cash value as
of any date will be the value on that date of any extended insurance benefit
then in force. Or it will be the value on that date of any variable reduced
paid-up insurance benefit then in force, less any contract debt.
Within 30 days of a contract anniversary, the net cash value of any extended
insurance will not be less than the value on that anniversary.
If the contract is not in default past the days of grace, or if the contract is
in force as variable reduced paid up insurance, we will usually pay any cash
value within 7 days after we receive your request and the contract at our
Service Office. But we have the right to defer payment if (1) the New York Stock
Exchange is closed; or (2) the SEC requires that trading be restricted or
declares and emergency; or (3) the SEC lets us defer payments of protect our
contract owners.
If the contract is in force as extended insurance we have the right to postpone
paying a cash value for up to six months. If we do so for more than 30 days, we
will pay interest at the rate of 3% a year.
Tabular Values.--In the table on page 4 we show tabular contract fund and
tabular cash values at the end of the contract years. The tabular contract fund
values are the amount which will then be in the contract fund, (see page 11,) if
all scheduled premiums have been paid on their due dates, there have been no
unscheduled premiums paid, there is no contract debt, the subaccounts you have
chosen earn exactly the assumed rate of return, and we have deducted the maximum
mortality charges. The tabular cash values are the amounts which, under the same
conditions, will then be used to provide extended insurance or variable reduced
paid-up insurance or will be paid in cash if the maxim surrender charges are
applied. The tabular cash value shown is equal to the tabular contract fund
value as of the same date, after deducting any surrender charges (at the maximum
rate) from the tabular contract fund value. (See Cash Value Option above.) Since
surrender charges are not deducted after the end of the 10th contract year, the
tabular cash values are the same as the tabular contract fund values thereafter.
If we need to compute tabular values at some time during a contract year, we
will count the time since the start of the year. We will let you know the
tabular values for other durations if you ask for them.
Page 14 (VALB-84)
LOANS
Loan Requirements.--After the first anniversary, you may borrow from us on the
contract. All these conditions must be met:
1. The Insured is living.
2. The contract is in force other than as extended insurance.
3. The contract debt will not be more than the loan value. (We explain these
terms below.)
4. As sole security for the loan, you assign the contract to us in a form that
meets our needs.
5. Except when used to pay premiums on this contract, the amount you borrow at
any one time must be at lease $500.
If there is already contract debt when you borrow from us, we will add the new
amount you borrow to that debt.
Contract Debt.--Contract debt at any time means the loan on the contract, plus
the interest we have charges that is not yet due and that we have not yet added
to the loan.
Loan Value.--You may borrow any amount up to the difference between the loan
value and any existing contract debt. At any time the loan value is 90% of the
net cash value.
There is one exception. If the contract is I default, the loan value during the
days of grace is what it was on the date of default.
Example 1: Suppose the contract has a loan value of $6,000. About eight months
ago you borrowed $1,500. By now there is interest of $55 charges but not yet
due. The contract debt is now $1,555, which is made up of the $1,500 loan and
the $55 interest.
Example 2: Suppose, in example 1, you want to borrow all that you can. We will
lend out $4,445 which is the difference between the $6,000 loan value and the
$1,555 contract debt. This will increase the contract debt to $6,000. We will
add the new amount borrowed to the existing loan and will charge interest on it,
too.
Interest Charge.--We will charge interest daily on any loan at the effective
rate of 5 1/2% a year. Interest is due on each contract anniversary, or when the
loan is paid back if that comes first. If interest is not paid when due, it will
become part of the loan. Then we will start to charge interest on it, too.
Example 3: Suppose the contract date is 1987. Six months before the anniversary
in 1996 you borrow $1,600 out of a $4,000 loan value. We charge 5 1/2% a year.
Three months later, but still three months before the anniversary, we will have
charges about $22 interest. This amount will be a few cents more or less than
$22 since some months have more days than others. The interest will not be due
until the anniversary unless the load is paid back sooner. The loan will still
be $1,600. The contract debt will be $1,622, since contract debt included
interest charged but not yet due.
On the anniversary in 1996 we will have charged about $44 interest. The interest
will then be due.
Example 4: Suppose the $44 interest in example 3 was paid on the anniversary.
The loan and contract debt each became $1,600 right after the payment.
Example %: Suppose the $44 interest in example 3 was not paid on the
anniversary. The interest became part of the loan, and we began to charge
interest on it, too. The loan and contract debt each became $1,644.
Repayment.--All or part of any contract debt may be paid back at any time while
the Insured is living. When we settle the contract, any contract debt is due us.
If there is contract debt at the end of the last day of grace when the contract
is in default, it will be deducted from the cash value to determine the net cash
value. We will make this adjustment so that the proceeds will not include the
amount of that debt.
Effect of a Loan.--When you take a loan, the amount of the loan continues to be
a part of the contract fund and is credited with interest at the guaranteed rate
of $% a year. However, we will reduce the investment amount by the amount you
borrow, and by loan interest that becomes part of the loan because it is not
paid when due. On each Monthly Date, if there is a contract loan outstanding, we
will increase the investment amount by interest credits accrued on the loan at
4% a year since the last Monthly Date. When you repay part or all of a loan will
increase the investment amount by the amount of loan you repay, plus, if you
repay all the loan, interest credits accrued on the loan at 4% a year since the
last Monthly Date. We will not increase the investment amount by loan interest
that is paid before we make it part of the loan.
We will allocate loans and repayments among the subaccounts I proportion to the
investment amount in each subaccount as of the date of the loan or repayment.
Only the amount of the investment amount will reflect the investment results of
the subaccounts. Since the amount you borrow is removed from the investment
amount, a loan may be a permanent effect on the net cash value of this contract,
and also for a contract which is paid-up or which is in force under the variable
reduced paid-up option, on any death benefit in excess of the guaranteed death
benefit. The longer the loan is outstanding, the greater this effect is likely
to be.

LOANS (Continued)
Example 6: Suppose the contract's investment amount is $15,000 and that $10,000
is in subaccount A and $5,000 is in subaccount B. If you make a $9,000 loan we
will reduce the amount in subaccount A by $6,000 and the amount in subaccount B
by $3,000.
Suppose that sometime later, when the investment amount in each of the two
subaccounts is the same you choose to repay the $9,000 loan. We will add $4,500
to the amount in each subaccount.
Excess Contract Debt.--If contract debt ever becomes equal to or more than the
cash value, all the contract's benefits will end 61 days after we mail a notice
to you and any assignee of whom we know. Also, we may send a notice to the
Insured's last known address. In the notice we will state the amount that, if
paid to us, will keep the contract's benefits from ending for a limited time.
Postponement of Loan.--We will usually make a loan within 7 days after we
receive your request at our Service Office. But we have the right to defer
making the loan if (1) the New York Stock Exchange is closed; or (2) the SEC
requires that trading be restricted or declares an emergency; or (3) the SEC
lets us defer payments to protect our contract owners.
EXCHANGE OF CONTRACT
Right to Exchange.--Before the second anniversary you may exchange this contract
for a new contract of fixed benefit insurance on the Insured's life. You will
not have to prove to us that the Insured is insurable. Also, you may make such
an exchange at any time if there is a material change in the investment policy
of a portfolio (see Change in Investment Policy on page 10). When we use the
term new contract we mean the contract for which this contract may be exchanged.
Conditions.--Your right to make this exchange is subject to all these
conditions: (1) You must ask for the exchange in writing in a form that meets
our needs. (2) You must surrender the contract to us. (3) We must have your
request and the contract at our Service office while the contract is in force
and not in default past its days of grace. (4) You must pay back any contract
debt under this contract, to the extent it may exceed the loan value of the new
contract. (5) You must pay any other charges required for the exchange.
Exchange Date.--The exchange date will be the later of: (1) the date we receive
the contract and our request at our Service Office; and (2) the date we receive
the payment, if any, required for the exchange. The new contract will take
effect on the exchange date only if the Insured is then living. If the new
contract takes effect, this contract will end just before the exchange date.
Contract Specifications.--The new contract will be on the Modified Premium Whole
Life plan. It will have a face amount equal to the face amount of this one. It
will have the same contract date and issue age as this contract and be in the
same rating class.
If, for any reason, we are not issuing the Modified Premium Whole Life Contract
on the exchange dates, then the new contract will be another life plan that we
would regularly issue on that date for the same rating class, amount, issue, age
and sex.
This contract might include an extra benefit which is still in effect just
before the exchange date. And a similar kind of benefit might have been
regularly offered in contracts like the new one on the date the extra benefit
took effect in this contract. In that case, if you ask for it in your request
for the exchange, that similar kind of benefit will be put in the new contract.
When we use the phrase contracts like the new one, we mean contracts that were,
on the contract date of this contract, regularly issued on the same plan as the
new one and for the same rating class, amount, issue age and sex.
The amount of any accidental death benefit included in the new contract in
accord with this provision will be the same as the amount of any accidental
death benefit in this contract.
If a benefit for waiving scheduled premiums is included in the new contract in
accord with this provision, any scheduled premiums to be waived under the new
contract for a disability that began before the exchange date must be at the
billing frequency that applied to this contract when the disability started. But
premiums will not be waived under the new contract unless it has a benefit for
waiving premiums in the event of disability. This will be so even if we have
waived premiums under this contract.
A charge may be made on exchange in the following situation: If, on the date of
exchange, the contract fund of this contract is less than the tabular contract
fund, a charge will be made for the difference in the two amounts. If the
contract fund of this contract is equal to or greater than the tabular contract
fund, no charge will be made. In these cases, the contract fund of the new
contract will be equal to that of this contract.
Exchange at Other Times.--You may be able to exchange this contract for a fixed
benefit Modified Premium Whole Life contract at a time other than those
described under right to Exchange above. But any such exchange may be made only
if we consent, and will be subject to conditions and charges which we then
determine.

SETTLEMENT OPTIONS
Payee Defined.--In these provisions and under the Automatic Mode of Settlement,
the word Payee means a person who has a right to receive a settlement under the
contract. Such a person may be the Insured, the owner, a beneficiary, or a
contingent payee.
Choosing an Option.--While the Insured is living you may choose, or change the
choice of, an option for all or part of the proceeds that may arise from the
Insured's death. The requirements are the same as those to designate or change a
beneficiary. We describe them under Beneficiary.
A payee may choose an option for all or part of any proceeds or residue that
becomes payable to him or her in one sum. We describe residue later on this
page.
In some cases, you or another Payee will need our consent to choose an option.
We describe these cases under conditions.
Options Described.--Here are the options we offer. We may also consent to other
arrangements.
Option 1 (Instalments for a Fixed Period).--We will make equal payments for up
to 25 years based on the Option 1 Table. The payments will include interest at
an effective rate of 3 1/2% a year. We may credit more interest. If and while we
do so, the payments will be larger.
Option 2 (Life Income).--We will make equal monthly payments for as long as the
person on whose life the settlement is based lives, with payments certain for
the period chosen. The choices are either ten years (10-Year Certain) or until
the sum of the payments equals the amount put under this option (Instalment
Refund). The amount of each payment will be based on the Option 2 Table and on
the sex and age, on the due date of the first payment, of the person on whose
life the settlement is based. But if a choice is made more than two years after
the Insured's death, we may use the Option 2 payment rates in individual annuity
contracts or life insurance contracts we regularly issue, based on United States
currency, on the due date of the first payment. On request, we will quote the
payment rates in contracts we then issue. We must have proof of the date of
birth of the person on whose life the settlement is based. If on the due date of
the first payment under this option, we have declared a higher payment rate
under the option, we will base the payments on that higher rate.
Option 3 (Interest Payment).--We will hold an amount at interest. We will pay
interest at an effective rate of at lease 3% a year ($3.000 annually, $14.89
semi-annually, $7.42 quarterly or $2.47 monthly per $1,000). We may pay more
interest.
Option 4 (Instalments of a Fixed Amount).--We will make equal annual,
semi-annual, quarterly or monthly payments if they total at least $90 a year for
each $1,000 put under this option. We will credit the unpaid balance with
interest at an effective rate of at least 3 1/2% a year. We may credit more
interest. If we do so, the balance will be larger. The final payment will be any
balance equal to or less than one payment.
First Payment Due Date.--Unless a different date is stated when the option is
chosen: (1) the first payment for Option 3 will be due at the end of the chosen
payment interval; and (2) the first payment for any of the other options will be
due on the date the option takes effect.
Residue Described.--For Options 1 and 2, residue on any date means the then
present value of any unpaid payments certain. We will compute it at an effective
interest rate of 3 1/2% a year. But we will use the interest rate we used to
compute the actual Option 2 payments if they were not based on the table in this
contract.
For Options 3 and 4, residue on any date means any unpaid balance with interest
to that date.
For option 2, residue does not include the value of any payment that may become
due after the certain period.

SETTLEMENT OPTIONS (Continued)
Withdrawal of Residue.--Unless otherwise stated when the option is chosen: (1)
under Options 1 and 2 the residue may be withdrawn; and (2) under Options 3 and
4 all, or any part not less than $100, of the residue may be withdrawn. If an
Option 3 residue is reduced to less than $1,000, we have the right to pay it in
one sum. Under Option 2, withdrawal of the residue will not affect any payments
that may become due after the certain period; the value of those payments cannot
be withdrawn. Instead, the payments will start again if they were based on the
life of a person who lives past the certain period.
Designating Contingent Payee(s).--A Payee under an option has the right, unless
otherwise stated, to name or change a contingent payee to receive any residue at
that Payee's death. This may be done only if (1) the Payee has the full right to
withdraw the residue; or (2) the residue would otherwise have been payable to
that Payee's estate at death.
A Payee who has this right may choose, or change the choice of, an option for
all or part of the residue. In some cases, the Payee will need our consent to
choose or change an option. We describe these cases under Conditions.
Any request to exercise any of these rights must be in writing and in a form
that meets our needs. It will take effect only when we file it at our Service
Office. Then the interest of anyone who is being removed will end as of the date
of the request, even if the Payee who made the request is not living when we
file it.
Changing Options.--A payee under Option 1, 3 or 4 may choose another option for
any sum that the Payee could withdraw on the date the chosen option is to start.
That date may be before the date the Payee makes the choice only if we consent.
In some cases, the Payee will need our consent to choose or change an option. We
describe these cases next.
Conditions.--Under any of these conditions, our consent is needed for an option
to be used for any person:
1. The person is not a natural person who will be paid in his or her own right.
2. The person will be paid as assignee.
3. The amount to be held for the person under Option 3 is less than $1,000. But
we will hold any amount for at lease one year in accord with the Automatic Mode
of Settlement.
4. Each payment to the person under the option would be less than $20.
5. The option is for residue arising other than at (a) the Insured's death, or
(b) the death of the beneficiary who was entitled to be paid as of the date of
the Insured's death.
6. The option is for proceeds that arise other than from the Insured's death,
and we are settling with an owner or any other person who is not the Insured.
Death of Payee.--If a Payee under an option dies and if no other distribution is
shown, we will pay any residue under that option in one sum to the Payee's
estate.

AUTOMATIC MODE OF SETTLEMENT
Applicability.--These provisions apply to proceeds arising from the Insured's
death and payable in one sum to a Payee who is a beneficiary. They do not apply
to any periodic payment.
Interest on Proceeds.--We will hold the proceeds at interest under Option 3 of
the Settlement Options provision. The Payee may withdraw the residue. We will
pay it promptly on request. We will pay interest annually unless we agree to pay
it more often. We have the right to pay the residue in one sum after one year if
(a) the Payee is not a natural person who will be paid in his or her own right;
(2) the Payee will be paid as assignee; or (3) the original amount we hold under
Option 3 for the Payee is less than $1,000.
Settlement at Payee's Death.--If the Payee dies and leaves an option 3 residue,
we will honor any contingent payee provision then in effect. If there is none,
here is what we will do. We will look to the beneficiary designation of the
contract; we will see what other beneficiary(ies), if any, would have been
entitled to the portion of the proceeds that produced the Option 3 residue if
the Insured had not died until immediately after the Payee died. Then we will
pay the residue in one sum to such other beneficiary(ies), in accord with that
designation. But if, as stated in that designation, payment would be due the
estate of someone else, we will instead pay the estate of the Payee.
Example: Suppose the class 1 beneficiary is Xxxx and the class 2 beneficiaries
are Xxxx and Xxxx. Xxxx was living when the Insured died. Xxxx later died
without having chosen an option or naming someone other than Xxxx and Xxxx as
contingent payee. If Xxxx and Xxxx are living at Jane's death we own them the
residue. If only one of them is living then, and if the contract called for
payment to the survivor of them, we own him the residue. If neither of them is
living then, we owe Jane's estate.
Spendthrift and Creditor.--A beneficiary or contingent payee may not, at or
after the Insured's death, assign, transfer, or encumber any benefit payable. To
the extent allowed by law, the benefits will not be subject to the claims of any
creditor of any beneficiary or contingent payee.

BASIS OF COMPUTATION
Mortality Tables Described.--Except as we state in the next paragraph, (1) we
base all net premium and net values to which we refer in this contract on the
Insured's issue age and sex and on the length of time since the contract date;
(2) we use the Commissioners 1980 Standard Ordinary Mortality Table; and (3) we
use continuous functions based on age last birthday.
For extended insurance, we base net premiums and net values on the Commissioners
1980 Extended Term Insurance Table.
Interest Rate.--For all net premium and net values to which we refer in this
contract we use an effective rate of 4% a year.
Exclusions.--When we compute net values we exclude the value of any
Supplementary Benefits and any other extra benefits added by rider to this
contract.
Values After 20 Contract Years.--Tabular values after the 20th contract year
will be the net level premium reserves, taking into account the increase in
scheduled premium amount on the Contract Change Date. To compute them, we will
use the mortality tables and interest rate we describe above. There will be the
same exclusions.
Minimum Legal Values.--The cash, loan and other values in this contract are at
least as large as those set by law where it is delivered. Where required, we
have given the insurance regulator a detailed statement of how we compute values
and benefits.

ALTERATION OF TEXT |
The first paragraph of the misstatement of Age or Sex Provision on page 6 is
amended to read as follows. If the Insured's stated age or sex or both are not
correct, we will adjust each benefit and any amount to be paid to reflect the
correct age and sex. How we will do so depends on the status of the contract
when we learn of the error, and on whether the Insured is then living. If the
Insured dies while the contract is in force as extended term insurance, here is
what we will do. We will compute what the net cash value of the incorrect
contract was on the date of default. We will compute the amount of extended term
insurance this value would have provided at the Insured's correct age, on the
date of default, and sex for the length of time, beginning on the date of
default, that we computed for the incorrect contract. We will pay this amount.
If the contract is in force other than as extended term insurance and the
Insured is not living when we learn of the error, here is what we will do. We
will compute the charge we made on the last Monthly Date before the Insured's
death for the cost of expected mortality (see page 11, Cost of Expected
Mortality). We will compute the coverage amount which this charge would have
provided at the Insured's Correct sex and age on that Monthly Date. The new
Basic Amount will be the correct coverage amount plus the contract fund. If the
contract is in force other than as extended term insurance and the Insured is
living when we learn of the error, here is what we will do. We will accumulate,
at 4% interest, the scheduled premiums per $1000 of face amount of the incorrect
contract, multiplied by its face amount. We will accumulate, at 4% interest, the
scheduled premiums per $1000 of face amount of a similar contract issued at the
Insured's correct age and sex. We will divide the first accumulation by the
second. The result will be the face amount of a new contract with which we will
replace the incorrect contract. The new contract will be similar in form to the
incorrect contract but will contain scheduled premiums, tabular contract funds,
tabular cash values and surrender charges as if it had been issued at the
correct age and sex. If the contract fund of the incorrect contract is at least
equal to the tabular contract fund of the correct contract, then we will set the
contract fund of the correct contract equal to that of the incorrect contract.
If not, we will set the contract fund of the correct contract equal to its
tabular contract fund, and grant a loan against the correct contract equal to
the excess of its tabular contract fund over the contract fund of the incorrect
contract. This loan will be added to any existing loan. If we need to adjust any
benefit under conditions we have not fully described in this provision, we will
do so in a consistent way.
