to the
BOA CVUL Future (NLAIC) prospectus dated May 1, 2008
This supplement updates certain information contained in the prospectus. Please read it and keep it with the prospectus for future reference.
The following disclosures are hereby revised as follows in the prospectus. These disclosures supersede any conflicting information presently included in the prospectus.
1) The following section is hereby deleted and replaced in its entirety:
Cybersecurity
Nationwide’s businesses are highly dependent upon its computer systems and those of its business partners. This makes Nationwide potentially susceptible to operational and information security risks resulting from a cyber-attack. These risks include direct risks, such as theft, misuse, corruption and destruction of data maintained by Nationwide, and indirect risks, such as denial of service attacks on service provider websites and other operational disruptions that impede Nationwide’s ability to electronically interact with service providers. Cyber-attacks affecting Nationwide, the underlying mutual funds, intermediaries, and other service providers may adversely affect Nationwide and policy values. In connection with any such cyber-attacks, Nationwide and/or its service providers and intermediaries may be subject to regulatory fines and financial losses and/or reputational damage. Cybersecurity risks may also impact the issuers of securities in which the underlying mutual funds invest, which may cause the underlying mutual funds to lose value. There may be an increased risk of cyber-attacks during periods of geopolitical or military conflict (such as Russia’s invasion of Ukraine and the resulting response by the United States and other countries). Although Nationwide undertakes substantial efforts to protect its computer systems from cyber-attacks, including internal processes and technological defenses that are preventative or detective, and other controls designed to provide multiple layers of security assurance, there can be no guarantee that Nationwide, its service providers, or the underlying mutual funds will avoid losses affecting the policy due to cyber-attacks or information security breaches in the future.
In the event that policy values are adversely affected as a result of the failure of Nationwide’s cybersecurity controls, Nationwide will take reasonable steps to restore policy values to the levels that they would have been had the cyber-attack not occurred. Nationwide will not, however, be responsible for any adverse impact to policy values that result from the policy owner or its designee’s negligent acts or failure to use reasonably appropriate safeguards to protect against cyber-attacks.
2) The following section is hereby deleted and replaced in its entirety:
Business Continuity Risks
Nationwide is exposed to risks related to natural and man-made disasters, such as storms, fires, earthquakes, public health crises, geopolitical disputes, military actions, and terrorist acts, which could adversely affect Nationwide’s ability to administer the policy. Natural and man-made disasters may require a significant contingent of Nationwide’s employees to work from remote locations. During these periods, Nationwide could experience decreased productivity, and a significant number of Nationwide’s workforce or certain key personnel may be unable to fulfill their duties if Nationwide’s data or systems are disabled or destroyed. In addition, an extended period of remote work arrangements could introduce operational risk and impair Nationwide’s ability to administer the policy.
Nationwide outsources certain critical business functions to third parties and, in the event of a natural or man-made disaster, relies upon the successful implementation and execution of the business continuity planning of such entities. While Nationwide closely monitors the business continuity activities of these third parties, successful implementation and execution of their business continuity strategies are largely beyond Nationwide’s control. If one or more of the third parties to whom Nationwide outsources such critical business functions experience operational failures, Nationwide’s ability to administer the policy could be impaired.

COVID-19 Risk
In March 2020, the World Health Organization declared the COVID-19 outbreak a pandemic, which has resulted in operational disruptions, as well as market volatility and general economic uncertainty. While Nationwide has implemented risk management and contingency plans and taken preventative measures and other precautions so it can continue to provide products and services to its customers, even as many of its employees and the employees of its service providers continue to work remotely, it is not currently possible to accurately estimate the full impact that the COVID-19 pandemic will have on Nationwide’s businesses as Nationwide continues to be subject to certain risks that could negatively impact its operations.
Significant market volatility and negative investment returns in the market resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic could have a negative impact on returns of the underlying mutual funds in which the Variable Account invests. Additionally, the COVID-19 pandemic has at times resulted in negative economic conditions, changes in consumer behavior, economic shutdowns, state and federal legislation intended to ease the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on consumers and voluntary hardship assistance that Nationwide provides to its customers. These factors, among other factors related to COVID-19, could affect the amount of sales and profitability of Nationwide’s businesses and could have a negative impact on its financial condition and operations.
While Nationwide is confident in its ability to manage the financial risks related to COVID-19, the extent and duration or the risks related to the COVID-19 pandemic cannot be fully known. It is possible these risks could impact Nationwide’s financial strength and claims-paying ability. There are many factors beyond Nationwide’s control that cannot be mitigated or foreseen that could have a negative impact on Nationwide and the operation of the policy. Nationwide continues to monitor the economic situation and assess its impact on its business operations closely.
4) The following section is hereby deleted and replaced in its entirety:
Valuation of Accumulation Units
Nationwide accounts for the value of a policy owner's interest in the Sub-Accounts by using Accumulation Units. The value of each Accumulation Unit varies daily based on the Investment Experience of the underlying mutual fund in which the Sub-Account invests. Nationwide uses each underlying mutual fund's Net Asset Value (NAV) to calculate the daily Accumulation Unit value for the corresponding Sub-Account. Note, however, that the Accumulation Unit value will not equal the underlying mutual fund's NAV. This daily Accumulation Unit valuation process is referred to as "pricing" the Accumulation Units, see How Sub-Account Investment Experience is Determined.
Accumulation Units are priced as of the close of regular trading on the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE), which is normally 4:00 p.m. EST, on each day that the NYSE is open. Nationwide will price Accumulation Units on each day that the NYSE is open for business. Any transactions received after the close of the NYSE will be priced as of the next Valuation Period. Nationwide will not price Accumulation Units on these recognized holidays (or on the dates that such holidays are observed by the New York Stock Exchange):
New Year's Day
Martin Luther King, Jr. Day
Presidents' Day
Good Friday
Memorial Day
Juneteenth National Independence Day
Independence Day
Labor Day
Thanksgiving
Christmas
In addition, Nationwide will not price Accumulation Units if:
(1) trading on the NYSE is restricted;
(2) an emergency exists making disposal or valuation of securities held in the separate account impracticable; or
(3) the SEC, by order, permits a suspension or postponement for the protection of security holders.
SEC rules and regulations govern when the conditions described in items (1) and (2) exist.
5) The following sections of the prospectus are hereby deleted and replaced in their entirety.

Nationwide Financial Services, Inc. (NFS, or collectively with its subsidiaries, (the "Company")) was formed in November 1996. NFS is the holding company for Nationwide Life Insurance Company (NLIC), Nationwide Life and Annuity Insurance Company (NLAIC) and other companies that comprise the life insurance and retirement savings operations of the Nationwide group of companies (Nationwide). This group includes Nationwide Financial Network (NFN), an affiliated distribution network that markets directly to its customer base.

The Company is subject to legal and regulatory proceedings in the ordinary course of its business. These include proceedings specific to the Company and proceedings generally applicable to business practices in the industries in which the Company operates. The outcomes of these proceedings cannot be predicted due to their complexity, scope, and many uncertainties. The Company believes, however, that based on currently known information, the ultimate outcome of all pending legal and regulatory proceedings is not likely to have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial condition.
The various businesses conducted by the Company are subject to oversight by numerous federal and state regulatory entities, including but not limited to the Securities and Exchange Commission, the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, the Department of Labor, the Internal Revenue Service, the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency, and state insurance authorities. Such regulatory entities may, in the normal course of business, be engaged in general or targeted inquiries, examinations and investigations of the Company and/or its affiliates. With respect to all such scrutiny directed at the Company or its affiliates, the Company is cooperating with regulators.

Underlying Mutual Fund Information
This appendix contains information about the underlying mutual funds in which the Sub-Accounts invest. The underlying mutual funds in which the Sub-Accounts invest are designed primarily as investments for variable annuity contracts and variable life insurance policies issued by insurance companies. There is no guarantee that the investment objectives will be met.
Please refer to the prospectus for each underlying mutual fund for more detailed information.
   
Designations Key:
FF: The underlying mutual fund corresponding to this Sub-Account primarily invests in other mutual funds. Therefore, a proportionate share of the fees and expenses of any acquired funds are indirectly borne by investors. As a result, investors in this Sub-Account may incur higher charges than if the assets were invested in an underlying mutual fund that does not invest in other mutual funds. Refer to the prospectus for this underlying mutual fund for more information.
