This supplement updates certain information contained in your prospectus. Please read it carefully and keep it with your prospectus for future reference.

 

This supplement provides updates of information on the following topics: (i) the termination and liquidation of certain Portfolios available as investment options under your variable annuity contract, namely DWS Capital Growth VIP — Class B Shares and DWS CROCI® U.S. VIP — Class B Shares and (ii) notice that the Asset Allocation Models available under your contract will be updated effective the close of business April 26, 2024.

 

I. Termination and Liquidation of the DWS Capital Growth VIP — Class B Shares and the DWS CROCI® U.S. VIP — Class B Shares

 

The Board of Trustees (the “Board”) of Deutsche DWS Variable Series II (the “Trust”) approved the termination and liquidation of the Class B Shares of DWS Capital Growth VIP and DWS CROCI® U.S. VIP (the “DWS Portfolios”). It is anticipated that the DWS Portfolios will be liquidated on or about June 17, 2024. The DWS Portfolios are available as investment options under your variable annuity contract.

 

In accordance with the Board’s decision to terminate operations, the DWS Portfolios will be liquidated effective at the close of trading on the New York Stock Exchange (the “NYSE”) on or about June 17, 2024 (the “Liquidation Date”). Assets held by the Separate Account that are invested in the DWS Portfolios will be transferred at the close of trading on the NYSE on the Liquidation Date to the BNY Mellon Variable Investment Fund — Government Money Market Portfolio.

 

Please note that the Trust has stated that it will no longer accept the purchase of DWS Portfolio shares after April 30, 2024. Therefore, if you provide us with instructions to purchase shares of one of the DWS Portfolios after April 30, 2024, your request will be rejected.

 

You may make transfers from the DWS Portfolios to one or more of the Subaccounts investing in the Portfolios listed below. Transfers made from the DWS Portfolios during the period from the date of this supplement to the Liquidation Date will not be considered a transfer for the purpose of calculating the number of transfers that may be made each calendar year without invoking our right to assess a transfer charge or for purposes of calculating the number of transfers that can be made each calendar year by U.S. Mail, voice response, telephone or facsimile.

If you wish to accept the changes to your selected Model, you will not need to take any action, as your Contract Value (and subsequent purchase payments, if applicable) will be reallocated in accordance with the updated Model.

 

If you choose to reject a change in an Asset Allocation Model, you create your own portfolio (a “self-directed portfolio”), you have terminated your advisory relationship with AssetMark, Inc. (“AssetMark”), your investment adviser for purposes of the Asset Allocation Program, and AssetMark provides no investment advice related to the creation of a self-directed portfolio. Further, once you have rejected a change in a Model, you are considered to have elected to reject all future changes in the Model. Therefore, if you reject a Model change and thereby create a self-directed portfolio, you will not receive a periodic review of or changes to your portfolio, as would be provided by AssetMark with respect to the Asset Allocation Models. You will, however, continue to receive a quarterly statement with information about your Contract Value, as well as written materials from AssetMark about any changes proposed to be made to the Models, and you can notify us in writing to allocate your Contract Value in accordance with such changes.
