Death of an Owner. If an Owner dies before the Annuity Date while this Contract is in force, we will pay the death benefit to the Beneficiary. If an Owner dies on or after the Annuity Date, the Beneficiary will become the new Owner and remaining payments must be distributed at least as rapidly as under the Annuity Option in effect at the time of the Owner’s death.
Death of an Owner. Upon the death of an Owner, his or her Personal Representative (see paragraph 4.a below) will immediately be deemed to have offered to sell to the other Owners all of the deceased Owner's Units (the "Offered Units") at the Purchase Price and on the Payment Terms described in Articles II and III below. Each such other Owner shall accept such offer and agree to buy such Offered Units in proportion to his or her respective ownership of all outstanding Units (excluding the Offered Units), or in such other proportion upon which the other Owners may agree. Notwithstanding the actual closing date specified in Section III(2), the transfer of the Units shall be deemed effective as of the close of business on the date of the deceased Owner's death. The other Owners and the Personal Representative shall promptly do all things necessary to cause such transfer in accordance with this Agreement.

In the case of a joint Owner dying prior to the Annuity Date, the surviving Owner will be deemed as the Beneficiary.
