RIDERS THAT ALTER THE POLICY AND FOR WHICH NO ADDITIONAL PREMIUM IS PAID TO THE

Accidental Death Benefit Rider: Pays an additional death benefit if the death on
the insured is caused by a qualifying accident.
Additional Purchase Option Rider: Provides additional term coverage.
Children's Life Insurance Rider: Provides additional term coverage for a child.
No separate reinsurance benefits are associated with this rider.
Disability Income Rider: This rider provides a monthly benefit while the insured

of time which exceeds the waiting period before payments begin. Payments will
continue while the policy is inforce and the insured is totally disabled, but no

Enhanced No Lapse Guarantee Rider: This rider guarantees that the policy will
not lapse, regardless of investment performance, provided cumulative premiums
paid less indebtedness less withdrawals are greater than or equal to the

term option. The limited term option is the lesser of 20 years or to attained
age 80 for issue ages 0 to 70 and the minimum of 10 years or to attained age 90
for issue ages 71 to 85. Also, at the time when the no lapse guarantee

Estate Tax Repeal Benefit Rider: (eff. 11/1/2002 (fac); 12/1/2002 (auto) This
rider will pay the account value less indebtedness if the Federal Estate Tax Law
is fully repealed by December 31, 2010 and we receive a request for this benefit
amount from the insured. This rider will terminate at the sooner of:
- The termination date of the policy, or
- January 31, 2011.
Level Compensation Endorsement: Surrender charges are not assessed for a full
surrender during the first three policy years. There is no charge for this

Maturity Date Extension Rider: When the policyholder reaches the maturity date
and has elected this rider, the death benefit is dropped to the account value,
no more monthly deductions are taken, interest is credited, no further premiums
are accepted, policy loans continue to accrue interest, and all other riders are
terminated.
Guaranteed COI Benefit Rider: This rider provides guaranteed cost of insurance
rates for the first 10 policy years. On each policy anniversary, we declare a
cost of insurance rate for a single policy year. This policy year is the policy
year 9 years from the then current policy anniversary. Thus the rider provides
that on any policy anniversary, cost of insurance rates over the next 10 years
will not exceed those provided by the rider. This rider is currently available
in only a few states and on variable life policy forms where the face amount is
at least thirty million dollars.

Mortality and Expense Risk Rates Rider: This rider guarantees that the mortality
and expense risk rate will be zero for years greater than and equal to 21.

issue. This rider is intended to prevent the lapse of highly loaned policies.
Foreign Travel Exclusion Rider: The rider is written such that if the insured
dies while traveling to, from, or in a country NOT listed on the List of
Countries and Jurisdictions (Foreign Travel Exclusion Rider Schedule A), or dies
as a direct or indirect result of an illness or injury sustained during such
travel, the death benefit proceeds will be limited to the policy's account
value, less any outstanding indebtedness.

SCHEDULE A
FOREIGN TRAVEL EXCLUSION RIDER
UNDERWRITING GUIDELINES
EFFECTIVE JANUARY 1, 2004
UNDERWRITING GUIDELINES

of cumulative travel per year to countries and jurisdictions not list on
Schedule A Foreign Travel Exclusion Rider -- Exhibit II (Non-Schedule A
Country), as noted on an application or application amendment to be signed
on delivery of the policy. The rider will NOT be considered /used if a
proposed insured travels beyond 30 cumulative days per year to a
Non-Schedule A country. The proposed insured will either be rated or
declined for travel to Non-Schedule A countries beyond the 30-day limit.

within the 30-day cumulative annual travel limit, a proposed insured will
have the option of choosing the rating or the exclusion rider.
3. Last Survivor Plans, Term Plans and the following riders are not eligible:
Spousal Rider, Child Rider, Premium Waiver, Disability Rider, and AD&D.
Term blends on permanent single life plans are eligible.
4. Only United States and Canadian residents are eligible for the rider.
5. Green card residents of the United States are eligible if they reside in
the United States permanently (as evidenced, for example by information
indicating the proposed insured intends to stay in the United States
indefinitely, has resided in the United States for a number of years, is
