Withdrawals Guaranteed Withdrawal Benefit For Life When the youngest Annuitant reaches age 59 1/2, you are eligible to withdraw a specific amount each Contract Year called the Guaranteed Withdrawal Benefit Amount ("GWB Amount"). The GWB Amount, described below, is available for withdrawal each Contract Year during the Annuitant(s)' lifetime regardless of the amount in your Contract Value. You may make partial withdrawals up to the GWB Amount during the Contract Year. You are not required to make any withdrawals. However, unused portions of the GWB Amount are not cumulative and do not carry over into future Contract Years. The GWB Amount is determined each Contract Year by multiplying the Guaranteed Withdrawal Benefit Value ("GWB Value"), described below, by the Withdrawal Percentage, also described below. For Contracts not owned by a trust, Owner(s) must be Annuitant(s). In the case of a trust owned Contract, the grantor of the trust must be an Annuitant. The grantor's spouse may also be named as a joint Annuitant at time of application. No benefit is payable until the youngest Annuitant reaches age 59 1/2. The Annuitant(s) will be subject to the withdrawal and surrender requirements as shown on the Contract's Schedule page. The Annuitant(s) may not be changed after the Contract SpecificationsDate. A GWB Amount Your first withdrawal after the youngest Annuitant reaches age 59 1/2 will establish a Withdrawal Percentage from the table shown below. The initial GWB Amount is determined by multiplying the applicable Withdrawal Percentage by the GWB Value. Once the GWB Amount is determined for a Contract Year, it will not change for the rest of that Contract Year. On each subsequent Contract Anniversary, the GWB Amount may change as described below. Before the youngest Annuitant reaches the age of 59 1/2, the GWB Amount is zero. Once the youngest Annuitant reaches age 59 1/2, your first withdrawal will be effective establish a Withdrawal Percentage that will never change. If the Contract has two Annuitants on the Valuation Contract Date that LNY receives Notice to withdraw. The Notice must specify from which Variable Subaccount and/or any Fixed Account and one Annuitant dies before a Withdrawal Percentage is determined, the withdrawal age of the surviving Annuitant will be madeused to determine the applicable Withdrawal Percentage from the Two Annuitants Withdrawal Percentages column shown in the table below. If no allocation is specifiedyou delay taking a first withdrawal until the youngest Annuitant reaches one of the older ages shown below, LNY will withdraw the amount requested on a pro-rata basis from each Variable Subaccount and/or any Fixed Account. Upon receipt of Notice of withdrawal, LNY will pay the amount of any withdrawal within the time period as required by the Securities and Exchange Commission unless the Suspension or Deferral of Payments or Transfers provision (Article 10) is in effect. Xxxxxxxxxxx Withdrawal Percentage shown for that older age will be accomplished at Accumulation Unit values as used to determine the GWB Amount each Contract Year for the duration of the Valuation Date the Notice for withdrawal is received. A partial withdrawal will result in a proportional reduction in any Death Benefit payable under the Contract. Withdrawals from If you never take a Fixed Subaccount withdrawal before the latest possible Annuity Date, the Withdrawal Percentage shown for ages 80 and older will be subject used to an Interest Adjustment unless the withdrawal is effective establish your eligible GWB Amount on the Expiration Date latest possible Annuity Date.

Once the youngest Annuitant reaches age 59½, you are eligible to make a withdrawal of the Guaranteed PeriodGWB Amount using a Withdrawal Percentage of 4.5%. If a request for you make a withdrawal from a Fixed Subaccount while the youngest Annuitant is received during the 45 but not more than 75 day period immediately preceding the Expiration Date of that Guaranteed Period62, the withdrawal will be effective as considered the first withdrawal and the Withdrawal Percentage of 4.5% will be used to determine the GWB Amount each Contract Year for the duration of the Expiration Contract. However, if you choose to wait until the youngest Annuitant turns age 65 to make the first withdrawal, the Withdrawal Percentage of 5% will be used to determine the GWB Amount each Contract Year for the duration of the Contract. On each Contract Anniversary, a new GWB Amount will be calculated by multiplying the Withdrawal Percentage established by your first withdrawal after the youngest Annuitant reaches age 59 1/2 by the GWB Value on that same Contract Anniversary. Generally, your new GWB Amount will be equal to or greater than the first GWB Amount established following the first withdrawal after the youngest Annuitant reached 59 1/2 as long as total withdrawals in any Contract Year do not exceed the GWB Amount for that same Contract Year. Each time you make a withdrawal, your Contract Value will be reduced by the amount of the withdrawal. However, if total withdrawals in any Contract Year exceed the GWB Amount for that same Contract Year, there will be a proportionate reduction in your GWB Value as described below which may result in a lower GWB Amount in future Contract Years. GWB Value The Contract has two related values; a Contract Value and a GWB Value. The Contract Value is determined by the method described in the Accumulation Units and Accumulation Unit Value provision of this Contract. The GWB Value is a value that is used to determine the GWB Amount each Contract Year once you make your first withdrawal after the youngest Annuitant reaches age 59 1/2. Your Contract will also have a GWB Value before the date the youngest Annuitant reaches age 59 1/2, and during that time the GWB Value may increase or decrease as described below. The GWB Value on the Contract Date unless an immediate withdrawal is requestedequal to the Purchase Payment. If an immediate withdrawal is requestedyou make withdrawals before the youngest Annuitant reaches age 59 1/2 the GWB Value will be reduced as described below in the Withdrawals Before Youngest Annuitant Reaches Age 59 1/2 provision of this Contract. If you make withdrawals after the youngest Annuitant reaches age 59 1/2 and the total withdrawals in a Contract Year are greater than the GWB Amount for that Contract Year, then the GWB Value will be reduced as described in the Withdrawals in Excess of Annual GWB Amount provision of this Contract. On each Contract Anniversary prior to the oldest Annuitant turning age 85, the GWB Value is compared to the Contract Value to determine whether the GWB Value should be increased. If the Contract has joint Annuitants and the oldest Annuitant dies before the Contract Anniversary that falls on or after his or her 85th birthday, the surviving Annuitant's age will be used. If the oldest Annuitant dies on or after the Contract Anniversary that falls on or after his or her 85th birthday, the GWB Value is not compared to the Contract Value and will not increase. If the Contract Value is lower than the GWB Value, the GWB Value will not change. If the Contract Value is greater than the GWB Value, the GWB Value will be automatically increased to equal the Contract Value. If you make a withdrawal will occur on the Valuation Date the Notice for a withdrawal is received. If a Notice for a withdrawal is received at any time other than during the 45 but not more than 75 day periodContract Anniversary, the withdrawal will be accomplished deducted from the Contract Value after it is compared to the GWB Value. Any new GWB Value will be used to determine the GWB Amount for the rest of that Contract Year once the youngest Annuitant has reached age 59 1/2 and a Withdrawal Percentage has been established by your first withdrawal of a GWB Amount. If you make any withdrawals before you are eligible to withdraw a GWB Amount or if you make total withdrawals in a Contract Year that exceed the GWB Amount for that Contract Year, the GWB Value will decrease as described below. Withdrawals Before Youngest Annuitant Reaches Age 59 1/2 You are not eligible to withdraw any part of the Valuation Date GWB Amount until the Notice for youngest Annuitant reaches age 59 1/2. If you make a withdrawal before the youngest Annuitant reaches age 59 1/2, the GWB Value is receivedreduced by a percentage determined by dividing the Gross Withdrawal amount by the Contract Value at time of the withdrawal. We calculate the new GWB Value as follows.

Withdrawals Guaranteed Withdrawal Benefit For Life When the youngest Annuitant reaches age 59 1/2, you are eligible to withdraw a specific amount each Contract Year called the Guaranteed Withdrawal Benefit Amount ("GWB Amount"). The GWB Amount, described below, is available for withdrawal each Contract Year during the Annuitant(s)' lifetime regardless of the amount in your Contract Value. You may make partial withdrawals up to the GWB Amount during the Contract Year. You are not required to make any withdrawals. However, unused portions of the GWB Amount are not cumulative and do not carry over into future Contract Years. The GWB Amount is determined each Contract Year by multiplying the Guaranteed Withdrawal Benefit Value ("GWB Value"), described below, by the Withdrawal Percentage, also described below. For Contracts not owned by a trust, Owner(s) must be Annuitant(s). In the case of a trust owned Contract, the grantor of the trust must be an Annuitant. The grantor's spouse may also be named as a joint Annuitant at time of application. No benefit is payable until the youngest Annuitant reaches age 59 1/2. The Annuitant(s) will be subject to the withdrawal and surrender requirements as shown on the Contract's Schedule page. The Annuitant(s) may not be changed after the Contract SpecificationsDate. A GWB Amount Your first withdrawal after the youngest Annuitant reaches age 59 1/2 will establish a Withdrawal Percentage from the table shown below. The initial GWB Amount is determined by multiplying the applicable Withdrawal Percentage by the GWB Value. Once the GWB Amount is determined for a Contract Year, it will not change for the rest of that Contract Year. On each subsequent Contract Anniversary, the GWB Amount may change as described below. Before the youngest Annuitant reaches the age of 59 1/2, the GWB Amount is zero. Once the youngest Annuitant reaches age 59 1/2, your first withdrawal will be effective establish a Withdrawal Percentage that will never change. If the Contract has two Annuitants on the Valuation Contract Date that LNY receives Notice to withdraw. The Notice must specify from which Variable Subaccount and/or any Fixed Account and one Annuitant dies before a Withdrawal Percentage is determined, the withdrawal age of the surviving Annuitant will be madeused to determine the applicable Withdrawal Percentage from the Two Annuitants Withdrawal Percentages column shown in the table below. If no allocation is specifiedyou delay taking a first withdrawal until the youngest Annuitant reaches one of the older ages shown below, LNY will withdraw the amount requested on a pro-rata basis from each Variable Subaccount and/or any Fixed Account. Upon receipt of Notice of withdrawal, LNY will pay the amount of any withdrawal within the time period as required by the Securities and Exchange Commission unless the Suspension or Deferral of Payments or Transfers provision (Article 10) is in effect. Xxxxxxxxxxx Withdrawal Percentage shown for that older age will be accomplished at Accumulation Unit values as used to determine the GWB Amount each Contract Year for the duration of the Valuation Date the Notice for withdrawal is received. A partial withdrawal will result in a proportional reduction in any Death Benefit payable under the Contract. Withdrawals from If you never take a Fixed Subaccount withdrawal before the latest possible Annuity Date, the Withdrawal Percentage shown for ages 80 and older will be subject used to an Interest Adjustment unless the withdrawal is effective establish your eligible GWB Amount on the Expiration Date latest possible Annuity Date. Youngest Xxxxxxxxx's Age at First Withdrawal One Annuitant Two Annuitants Withdrawal Percentage Withdrawal Percentage 591/2 -64 5% 4.5% 65-69 5% 5% 70-79 6% 5.5% 80 and older 7% 6.5% For example, assume there are two Annuitants. Once the youngest Annuitant reaches age 59 1/2, you are eligible to make a withdrawal of the Guaranteed PeriodGWB Amount using a Withdrawal Percentage of 4.5%. If a request for you make a withdrawal from a Fixed Subaccount while the youngest Annuitant is received during the 45 but not more than 75 day period immediately preceding the Expiration Date of that Guaranteed Period62, the withdrawal will be effective as considered the first withdrawal and the Withdrawal Percentage of 4.5% will be used to determine the GWB Amount each Contract Year for the duration of the Expiration Contract. However, if you choose to wait until the youngest Annuitant turns age 65 to make the first withdrawal, the Withdrawal Percentage of 5% will be used to determine the GWB Amount each Contract Year for the duration of the Contract. On each Contract Anniversary, a new GWB Amount will be calculated by multiplying the Withdrawal Percentage established by your first withdrawal after the youngest Annuitant reaches age 59 1/2 by the GWB Value on that same Contract Anniversary. Generally, your new GWB Amount will be equal to or greater than the first GWB Amount established following the first withdrawal after the youngest Annuitant reached 59 1/2 as long as total withdrawals in any Contract Year do not exceed the GWB Amount for that same Contract Year. Each time you make a withdrawal, your Contract Value will be reduced by the amount of the withdrawal. However, if total withdrawals in any Contract Year exceed the GWB Amount for that same Contract Year, there will be a proportionate reduction in your GWB Value as described below which may result in a lower GWB Amount in future Contract Years. GWB Value The Contract has two related values; a Contract Value and a GWB Value. The Contract Value is determined by the method described in the Accumulation Units and Accumulation Unit Value provision of this Contract. The GWB Value is a value that is used to determine the GWB Amount each Contract Year once you make your first withdrawal after the youngest Annuitant reaches age 59 1/2. Your Contract will also have a GWB Value before the date the youngest Annuitant reaches age 59 1/2, and during that time the GWB Value may increase or decrease as described below. The GWB Value on the Contract Date unless an immediate withdrawal is requestedequal to the Purchase Payment. If an immediate withdrawal is requestedyou make withdrawals before the youngest Annuitant reaches age 59 1/2 the GWB Value will be reduced as described below in the Withdrawals Before Youngest Annuitant Reaches Age 59 1/2 provision of this Contract. If you make withdrawals after the youngest Annuitant reaches age 59 1/2 and the total withdrawals in a Contract Year are greater than the GWB Amount for that Contract Year, then the GWB Value will be reduced as described in the Withdrawals in Excess of Annual GWB Amount provision of this Contract. On each Contract Anniversary prior to the oldest Annuitant turning age 85, the GWB Value is compared to the Contract Value to determine whether the GWB Value should be increased. If the Contract has joint Annuitants and the oldest Annuitant dies before the Contract Anniversary that falls on or after his or her 85th birthday, the surviving Annuitant's age will be used. If the oldest Annuitant dies on or after the Contract Anniversary that falls on or after his or her 85th birthday, the GWB Value is not compared to the Contract Value and will not increase. If the Contract Value is lower than the GWB Value, the GWB Value will not change. If the Contract Value is greater than the GWB Value, the GWB Value will be automatically increased to equal the Contract Value. If you make a withdrawal will occur on the Valuation Date the Notice for a withdrawal is received. If a Notice for a withdrawal is received at any time other than during the 45 but not more than 75 day periodContract Anniversary, the withdrawal will be accomplished deducted from the Contract Value after it is compared to the GWB Value. Any new GWB Value will be used to determine the GWB Amount for the rest of that Contract Year once the youngest Annuitant has reached age 59 1/2 and a Withdrawal Percentage has been established by your first withdrawal of a GWB Amount. If you make any withdrawals before you are eligible to withdraw a GWB Amount or if you make total withdrawals in a Contract Year that exceed the GWB Amount for that Contract Year, the GWB Value will decrease as described below. Withdrawals Before Youngest Annuitant Reaches Age 59 1/2 You are not eligible to withdraw any part of the Valuation Date GWB Amount until the Notice for youngest Annuitant reaches age 59 1/2. If you make a withdrawal before the youngest Annuitant reaches age 59 1/2, the GWB Value is receivedreduced by a percentage determined by dividing the Gross Withdrawal amount by the Contract Value at time of the withdrawal. We calculate the new GWB Value as follows.

The redemption of Units in connection with an Automatic Withdrawal Plan may result in a gain or loss for tax purposes. The maintenance of an Automatic Withdrawal Plan concurrently with purchases of additional Units of the Portfolio would be disadvantageous to the investor because of the CDSC that may become payable on such withdrawals in the case of Class A, Class C, Class SD-A or Class SD-C Units and because of the initial sales charge in the case of Class A and Class SD-A Units.
