IMPORTANT INFORMATION YOU SHOULD CONSIDER ABOUT THE EXECUTIVE BENEFIT VUL POLICY

Ongoing Fees and Expenses (annual charges)	In addition to transaction charges, you are also subject to certain ongoing fees and expenses under the Policy, including fees and expenses covering the cost of insurance (“COI”) under the Policy and the cost of optional benefits available under the Policy. Such fees and expenses are set based on characteristics of the insured (e.g., age, sex, and rating classification). You should review the Policy specifications page of your Policy for rates applicable to the Policy. For additional information on ongoing fees and expenses, see “FEE TABLES” in the Prospectus and “FUND APPENDIX - FUNDS AVAILABLE UNDER YOUR POLICY,” which is part of this Updating Summary Prospectus.

Annual Fee	Minimum	Maximum
Investment options (Portfolio fees and expenses)	0.10%	4.91%

RISKS
Risk of Loss	You can lose money by purchasing the Policy. For additional information about the risk of loss, see “PRINCIPAL RISKS OF INVESTING IN THE POLICY” in the Prospectus.
Not a Short-Term Investment	The Policy is not a short-term investment and is not appropriate for an investor who needs ready access to cash. Before purchasing a Policy for a specialized purpose, you should consider whether the long-term nature of the Policy is consistent with the purpose for which it is being considered. For additional information about the investment profile of the Policy, see “PRINCIPAL RISKS OF INVESTING IN THE POLICY” in the Prospectus.

5

RISKS
Risks Associated with Investment Options	An investment in the Policy is subject to the risk of poor investment performance and can vary depending on the performance of the investment options, or Funds, available under the Policy. Each Fund (including any Fixed Account investment option) will have its own unique risks, and investors should review these investment options before making an investment decision. For additional information about the risks associated with Investment Options, see “PRINCIPAL RISKS OF INVESTING IN THE POLICY,” “THE SERIES ACCOUNT AND FUNDS” in the Prospectus and “FUND APPENDIX — FUNDS AVAILABLE UNDER YOUR POLICY” which is part of this Updating Summary Prospectus.
Insurance Company Risks	An investment in the Policy is subject to the risks related to the Depositor, Empower, including that any obligations (including under any fixed account investment options), guarantees, or benefits are subject to the claims-paying ability of the Depositor. More information about the Depositor including its financial strength ratings is available upon request by calling toll-free 1-888-353-2654. For additional information about Company risks, see “PRINCIPAL RISKS OF INVESTING IN THE POLICY” and “THE COMPANY AND THE FIXED ACCOUNT” in the Prospectus.
Policy Lapse	Your Policy could terminate if the value of your Policy becomes too low to support the Policy’s monthly charges. Your Policy may also Lapse due to insufficient premium payments, withdrawals, unpaid loans, or loan interest. There is a cost associated with reinstating a Lapsed Policy. Death Benefits will not be paid if the Policy has Lapsed. For additional information about Company risks, see “LAPSE AND REINSTATEMENT,” “PRINCIPAL RISKS OF INVESTING IN THE POLICY,” “POLICY LOANS” and “PREMIUMS” in the Prospectus.

RESTRICTIONS
Investment Options	While you may transfer amounts in the Sub-Accounts (which invest in shares of a corresponding Fund) and the Fixed Account, certain restrictions and transfer fees apply with regard to the number and amount of such transfers. Transfers are also subject to the excessive trading and market timing polices described in the Prospectus. We reserve the right to remove or substitute Funds as investment options. For additional information about Investment Options, see “SERIES ACCOUNT AND THE FUNDS” and “TRANSFERS” in the Prospectus.
Optional Benefits	Optional benefits are subject to additional charges. Some optional benefits are available only at the time your Policy is issued and may not be available for all Owners or Insureds. For additional information about the optional benefits, see “OPTIONAL BENEFITS UNDER THE POLICY” in the Prospectus.

TAXES

Tax Implications

You should consult with a tax professional to determine the tax implications regarding the purchase, ownership, and use of a Policy (such as in connection with a plan involving covered employees). Withdrawals and surrenders may be subject to income tax, and will be taxed at ordinary rates. In addition, withdrawals and surrenders may be subject to an additional tax depending on the circumstances. There is no additional tax benefit to the investor if the Policy is purchased through a tax-qualified plan. Purchases through individual retirement accounts (IRAs) are not permitted under the Internal Revenue Code. For additional information about tax implications, see “TAX CONSIDERATIONS” in the Prospectus.

CONFLICTS OF INTEREST
Investment Professional Compensation	Some investment professionals have and may continue to receive compensation for selling the Policy to investors, which may include commissions, revenue sharing, compensation from affiliates and third parties. These investment professionals may have a financial incentive to offer or recommend the Policy over another investment. For additional information about compensation, see “THE SERIES ACCOUNT AND THE FUNDS - Payments We Receive; Payments We Make.” in the Prospectus.
Exchanges	Some investment professionals may have a financial incentive to offer an investor a new policy in place of the one he or she already owns. You should only exchange your Policy if you determine, after comparing the features, fees, and risks of both policies, that it is preferable for you to purchase the new policy rather than continue to own the existing Policy. For additional information about exchanges, see “USE OF THE POLICY — Replacement of Life Insurance or Annuities” in the Prospectus.
