This supplement updates certain information in the most recent prospectus.
You should read this information carefully and retain this supplement for
future reference together with the prospectus for your policy. This
supplement is not valid unless it is read in conjunction with the prospectus
for your policy. All capitalized terms used but not defined herein have the
same meaning as those included in the prospectus.
MARKETLOCK INCOME PLUS EXTENSION
The information below is important to you if you purchased a contract between
May 1, 2008 and May 3, 2009 and you elected the MarketLock Income Plus Living
Benefit. As described in the prospectus, the initial Income Base Evaluation
Period and initial Income Credit Period ended after the fifth contract year.
If you elected to extend both the Income Base Evaluation Period and the
Income Credit Period on the fifth and again on the tenth contract anniversary
(first and second "Extensions"), you will have the opportunity to elect the
third extension of the Income Base Evaluation Period only (third "Extension")
on or about your fifteenth contract anniversary. The Income Credit Base
Period will not be available for further extension. In choosing the third
Extension, only the Income Base Evaluation Period over which the feature
locks-in the highest Anniversary Value will be extended for an additional 5
year period, and your fee will change as detailed below. No other parameters
or terms of your current benefit, including investment requirements, will
change as a result of the third Extension.
If you do not wish to elect the third Extension, no further action is
required by you. Your benefit will continue without change. You will
continue to pay the current fee and can take the Maximum Annual Withdrawal
Amount in effect at the end of the Income Base Evaluation Period. You will
also have the same investment requirements that applied upon the second
Extension. However, your Income Base will no longer be adjusted for higher
Anniversary Values. Please note that if you did not elect the first and the
second Extensions when they were offered, you will not be permitted to extend
the Income Base Evaluation Period at this time. If you do not elect this
third Extension, you will not be eligible for any subsequent Extension in the
future.
As with all important financial decisions, we recommend that you discuss this
with your financial representative. If you do not have a prospectus, you can
call our Annuity Service Center at (800) 445-7862 and we will provide one to
you. If you elect the second Extension, we will send you a new contract
endorsement.
For information on the MarketLock Income Plus Living Benefit you elected at
purchase, please see the MarketLock Income Plus section under OPTIONAL LIVING
BENEFITS in the prospectus.
How do I elect the third Extension?
If you are eligible for the third Extension because you elected all previous
Extensions and wish to elect the third Extension, you must complete the
Election Form you will receive. The terms of the third Extension for
contracts issued between May 1, 2008 and May 3, 2009 are detailed below. The
Income Base Evaluation Period may be extended for an additional 5 year
period.
As a reminder, the Income Base Evaluation Period refers to the period of time
over which we consider Anniversary Values. These components are used to
calculate the Income Base, which determines your Maximum Annual Withdrawal
Amount.
What is the fee if I elect the third Extension?
If you elect the third Extension, the fee for the feature will be increased
by 0.05% as follows:
----------- ------------------------------------------------ ------------------------------------------------
Number of Current Annualized Fee After Second Extension Current Annualized Fee After Third Extension
Covered (calculated as a percentage of the Income Base) (calculated as a percentage of the Income Base)
Persons
----------- ------------------------------------------------ ------------------------------------------------
One 1.25% 1.30%
----------- ------------------------------------------------ ------------------------------------------------
Two 1.50% 1.55%
----------- ------------------------------------------------ ------------------------------------------------
As a reminder, you also have the option to cancel your MarketLock Income Plus
benefit on your tenth anniversary, or any anniversary thereafter. If you
elect to cancel your feature, you will no longer receive the guarantees of
the MarketLock Income Plus benefit and you will no longer be charged the fee.
See "Can MarketLock Income Plus be cancelled?" in the MarketLock Income Plus
section under OPTIONAL LIVING BENEFITS in the prospectus.
