AIG SunAmerica Life will be governed by final judgment of the issue. However, if in the opinion of Anchor National's counsel, this issue has been determined by controlling precedent, AIG SunAmerica Life will not submit the issue to a court for determination. 4 TABLE OF CONTENTS

It is designed to help you invest on a tax-deferred basis and meet long-term financial goals. There are minimum Purchase Payment amounts required to purchase a contract. Purchase Payments may be invested in a variety of variable and fixed account options. Like all deferred annuities, the contract has an Accumulation Phase and an Income Phase. During the Accumulation Phase, you invest money in your contract. The Income Phase begins when you start receiving income payments from your annuity to provide for your retirement. FREE LOOK: You may cancel your contract within 10 days after receiving it (or whatever period is required in your state). You will receive whatever your contract is worth on the day that we receive your request. The amount refunded may be more or less than your original Purchase Payment. We will return your original Purchase Payment if required by law. Please see PURCHASING A VISTA CAPITAL ADVANTAGE VARIABLE ANNUITY in the prospectus. EXPENSES: There are fees and charges associated with the contract. Each year, we deduct a $30 contract maintenance fee from your contract. We also deduct Separate Account charges which equal 1.40% annually of the average daily value of your contract allocated to the Variable Portfolios. There are investment charges on amounts invested in the Variable Portfolios. If you elect optional features available under the contract we may charge additional fees for those features. A separate withdrawal charge schedule applies to each Purchase Payment. The amount of the withdrawal charge declines over time. After a Purchase Payment has been in the contract for seven complete years, withdrawal charges no longer apply to that portion of the Purchase Payment. Please see the FEE TABLE, PURCHASING A VISTA CAPITAL ADVANTAGE VARIABLE ANNUITY and EXPENSES IN THE PROSPECTUS. ACCESS TO YOUR MONEY: You may withdraw money from your contract during the Accumulation Phase. If you do so, earnings are deemed to be withdrawn first. You will pay income taxes on earnings and untaxed contributions when you withdraw them. Payments received during the Income Phase are considered partly a return of your original investment. A federal tax penalty may apply if you make withdrawals before age 59 1/2. As noted above, a withdrawal charge may apply. Please see ACCESS TO YOUR MONEY and TAXES in the prospectus. DEATH BENEFIT: A death benefit feature is available under the contract to protect your Beneficiaries in the event of your death during the Accumulation Phase. Please see DEATH BENEFITS in the prospectus. INCOME OPTIONS: When you are ready to begin taking income, you can choose to receive income payments on a variable basis, fixed basis or a combination of both. You may also chose from five different income options, including an option for income that you cannot outlive. Please see INCOME OPTIONS in the prospectus.

These costs include owner transaction expenses, contract maintenance fee, separate account annual expenses and fees and expenses of the underlying portfolios of the Trusts. The Examples assume that you invest $10,000 in the contract for the time periods indicated; that your investment has a 5% return each year; and that the maximum and minimum fees and expenses of the underlying variable portfolios of the Trusts are reflected. Although your actual costs may be higher or lower, based on these assumptions, your costs at the end of the stated period would be: MAXIMUM EXPENSE EXAMPLES (ASSUMING MAXIMUM SEPARATE ACCOUNT ANNUAL EXPENSES OF 1.40% AND INVESTMENT IN AN UNDERLYING VARIABLE PORTFOLIO WITH TOTAL EXPENSES OF 1.25%) (1) If you surrender your contract at the end of the applicable time period:

EXPLANATION OF FEE TABLES AND EXAMPLES 1. The purpose of the Fee Tables is to show you the various expenses you would incur directly and indirectly by investing in the contract. The tables represent both fees at the separate account (contract level) as well as total annual underlying variable account operating expenses. We converted the contract maintenance fee to a percentage (0.05%). The actual impact of the contract maintenance fee may differ from this percentage. Additional information on the portfolio company fees can be found in the accompanying Trust prospectuses. 2. In addition to the stated assumptions, the Examples also assume Separate Account charges as indicated and that no transfer fees were imposed. Although premium taxes may apply in certain states, they are not reflected in the Examples. 3. THESE EXAMPLES SHOULD NOT BE CONSIDERED A REPRESENTATION OF PAST OR FUTURE EXPENSES. ACTUAL EXPENSES MAY BE GREATER OR LESS THAN THOSE SHOWN. THE HISTORICAL ACCUMULATION UNIT VALUES ARE CONTAINED IN APPENDIX C -- CONDENSED FINANCIAL INFORMATION. 9 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- PERFORMANCE -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- We advertise the Cash Management Portfolio's yield and effective yield. In addition, the other Variable Portfolios advertise total return, gross yield and yield-to-maturity. These figures represent past performance of the Variable Portfolios. These performance numbers do not indicate future results. When we advertise performance for periods prior to the date the contracts were first issued, we derive the figures from the performance of the corresponding portfolios for the Trusts, if available. We modify these numbers to reflect charges and expenses as if the Variable Portfolio was in existence during the period stated in the advertisement. Figures calculated in this manner do not represent actual historic performance of the particular Variable Portfolio. Consult the Statement of Additional Information for more detailed information regarding the calculation of performance data. The performance of each Variable Portfolio may also be measured against unmanaged market indices. The indices we use include but are not limited to the Dow Jones Industrial Average, the Standard & Poor's 500, the Russell 1000 Growth Index, the Morgan Stanley Capital International Europe, Australasia and Far East Index ("EAFE") and the Morgan Stanley Capital International World Index. We may compare the Variable Portfolios' performance to that of other variable annuities with similar objectives and policies as reported by independent ranking agencies such as Morningstar, Inc., Lipper Analytical Services, Inc. or Variable Annuity Research & Data Service ("VARDS"). AIG SunAmerica Life may also advertise the rating and other information assigned to it by independent industry ratings organizations. Some of those organizations are A.M. Best Company ("A.M. Best"), Moody's Investor's Service ("Moody's"), Standard & Poor's Insurance Rating Services ("S&P"), and Fitch Ratings ("Fitch's"). Best's and Moody's ratings reflect their current opinion of our financial strength and performance in comparison to others in the life and health insurance industry. S&P's and Fitch's ratings measure the ability of an insurance company to meet its obligations under insurance policies it issues. These two ratings do not measure the insurer's ability to meet non-policy obligations. Ratings in general do not relate to the performance of the Variable Portfolios. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- DESCRIPTION OF AIG SUNAMERICA LIFE, THE SEPARATE ACCOUNT AND THE GENERAL ACCOUNT -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- AIG SUNAMERICA LIFE AIG SunAmerica Life is a stock life insurance company organized under the laws of the state of Arizona. Its principal place of business is 1 SunAmerica Center, Los Angeles, California 90067-6022. We conduct life insurance and annuity business in the District of Columbia and all states except New York.

Business focuses include fixed and variable annuities, mutual funds and broker-dealer services. SEPARATE ACCOUNT AIG SunAmerica Life originally established Variable Annuity Account Two (the "separate account") on May 24, 1994. The separate account is registered with the SEC as a unit investment trust under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. AIG SunAmerica Life owns the assets 10 of the separate account. However, the assets in the separate account are not chargeable with liabilities arising out of any other business conducted by AIG SunAmerica Life.

All of the assets in the general account are chargeable with the claims of any AIG SunAmerica Life contract holders as well as all of its creditors. The general account funds are invested as permitted under state insurance laws. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- VARIABLE PORTFOLIO OPTIONS -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- VARIABLE PORTFOLIOS The Variable Portfolios invest in shares of the Trusts listed below. The Variable Portfolios are only available through the purchase of certain insurance contracts. The Trusts serve as the underlying investment vehicles for other variable annuity contracts issued by AIG SunAmerica Life, and other affiliated/unaffiliated insurance companies. Neither AIG SunAmerica Life nor the Trusts believe that offering shares of the Trusts in this manner disadvantages you. Each Trust's advisers monitor for potential conflicts. The Variable Portfolios along with their respective subadvisers are listed below: ANCHOR SERIES TRUST -- CLASS 1 Wellington Management Company, LLP serves as subadviser to the Anchor Series Trust Portfolios. Anchor Series Trust ("AST") contains investment portfolios in addition to those listed here which are not available for investment under this contract. SUNAMERICA SERIES TRUST -- CLASS 1 Various subadvisers provide investment advice for the SunAmerica Series Trust Portfolios. SunAmerica Series Trust ("SAST") contains investment portfolios in addition to those listed here which are not available for investment under this contract. STOCKS: MANAGED BY DAVIS ADVISORS - Davis Venture Value Portfolio SAST MANAGED BY MARSICO CAPITAL MANAGEMENT, LLC - Marsico Growth Portfolio SAST MANAGED BY MASSACHUSETTS FINANCIAL SERVICES COMPANY - MFS Total Return Portfolio SAST MANAGED BY PUTNAM INVESTMENT MANAGEMENT, LLC - International Growth and Income Portfolio SAST 11 BONDS: MANAGED BY WELLINGTON MANAGEMENT COMPANY, LLC - AST Government & Quality Bond Portfolio AST CASH: MANAGED BY BANC OF AMERICA CAPITAL MANAGEMENT, LLC - Cash Management Portfolio SAST You should read the accompanying prospectuses for the Trusts carefully. These prospectuses contains detailed information about the Variable Portfolios, including each Variable Portfolio's investment objective and risk factors. VOTING RIGHTS AIG SunAmerica Life is the legal owner of the Trusts' shares. However, when a Variable Portfolio solicits proxies in conjunction with a vote of shareholders, we must obtain your instructions on how to vote those shares. We vote all of the shares we own in proportion to your instructions. This includes any shares we own on our own behalf. Should we determine that we are no longer required to comply with these rules, we will vote the shares in our own right. SUBSTITUTION We may amend your contract due to changes to the Variable Portfolios offered under your contract. For example, we may offer new Variable Portfolios, delete Variable Portfolios, or stop accepting allocations and/or investments in a particular Variable Portfolio. We may move assets and re-direct future premium allocations from one Variable Portfolio to another if we receive investor approval through a proxy vote or SEC approval for a fund substitution. This would occur if a Variable Portfolio is no longer an appropriate investment for the contract, for reasons such as continuing substandard performance, or for changes to the portfolio manager, investment objectives, risks and strategies, or federal or state laws. The new Variable Portfolio offered may have different fees and expenses. You will be notified of any upcoming proxies or substitutions that affect your Variable Portfolio choices. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- FIXED ACCOUNT OPTIONS -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- FIXED ACCOUNTS Your contract may offer Fixed Account Guarantee Periods ("FAGP") to which you may allocate certain Purchase Payments or contract value. Available guarantee periods may be for different lengths of time (such as 1, 3 or 5 years) and may have different guaranteed interest rates, as noted below. We guarantee the interest rate credited to amounts allocated to any available FAGP and that the rate will never be less than the minimum guaranteed interest rate as specified in your contract. Once established, the rates for specified payments do not change during the guarantee period. We determine the FAGPs offered at any time in Our sole discretion and We reserve the right to change the FAGPs that We make available at any time, unless state law requires Us to do otherwise. Please check with your financial representative to learn if any FAGPs are currently offered. There are three interest rate scenarios for money allocated to the FAGPs. Each of these rates may differ from one another. Once declared, the applicable rate is guaranteed until the corresponding guarantee period expires. Under each scenario your money may be credited a different rate of interest as follows: - Initial Rate: The rate credited to any portion of the initial Purchase Payment allocated to a FAGP. 12 - Current Rate: The rate credited to any portion of the subsequent Purchase Payments allocated to a FAGP. - Renewal Rate: The rate credited to money transferred from a FAGP or a Variable Portfolio into a FAGP and to money remaining in a FAGP after expiration of a guarantee period. When a FAGP ends, you may leave your money in the same FAGP or you may reallocate your money to another FAGP or to the Variable Portfolios. If you want to reallocate your money, you must contact Us within 30 days after the end of the current interest guarantee period and instruct Us as to where you would like the money invested. We do not contact you. If We do not hear from you, your money will remain in the same FAGP where it will earn interest at the renewal rate then in effect for that FAGP. If you take money out of any available multi-year FAGP, before the end of the guarantee period, We make an adjustment to your contract. We refer to the adjustment as a market value adjustment ("MVA"). The MVA reflects any difference in the interest rate environment between the time you place your money in the FAGP and the time when you withdraw or transfer that money. This adjustment can increase or decrease your contract value. Generally, if interest rates drop between the time you put your money into a FAGP and the time you take it out, We credit a positive adjustment to your contract. Conversely, if interest rates increase during the same period, We post a negative adjustment to your contract. You have 30 days after the end of each guarantee period to reallocate your funds without incurring any MVA. APPENDIX A SHOWS HOW WE CALCULATE AND APPLY THE MVA. All FAGPs may not be available in all states. We reserve the right to refuse any Purchase Payment to available FAGPs if we are crediting a rate equal to the minimum guaranteed interest rate specified in your contract. We may also offer the specific Dollar Cost Averaging Fixed Accounts ("DCAFA"). The rules, restrictions and operation of the DCAFAs may differ from the standard FAGPs described above, please see DOLLAR COST AVERAGING PROGRAM below for more details. DOLLAR COST AVERAGING FIXED ACCOUNTS You may invest initial and/or subsequent Purchase Payments in the DCA fixed accounts ("DCAFA"), if available. DCAFAs also credit a fixed rate of interest but are specifically designed to facilitate a dollar cost averaging program. Interest is credited to amounts allocated to the DCAFAs while your investment is transferred to the Variable Portfolios over certain specified time frames. The interest rates applicable to the DCAFA may differ from those applicable to any available FAGPs but will never be less than the minimum annual guaranteed interest rate as specified in your contract. However, when using a DCAFA the annual interest rate is paid on a declining balance as you systematically transfer your investment to the Variable Portfolios. Therefore, the actual effective yield will be less than the annual crediting rate. We determine the DCAFAs offered at any time in Our sole discretion and We reserve the right to change to DCAFAs that we make available at any time, unless state law requires us to do otherwise. See DOLLAR COST AVERAGING PROGRAM below for more information. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- EXPENSES -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- There are charges and expenses associated with your contract. These charges and expenses reduce your investment return. We will not increase the contract maintenance fee or the insurance and withdrawal charges under your contract. However, the investment charges under your contract may increase or decrease. Some states may require that we charge less than the amounts described below. SEPARATE ACCOUNT CHARGES The Company deducts a mortality and expense risk charge in the amount of 1.40%, annually of the value of your contract invested in the Variable Portfolios. We deduct the charge daily. This charge compensates the Company for the mortality and expense risk and the costs of contract distribution assumed by the Company. 13 Generally, the mortality risks assumed by the Company arise from its contractual obligations to make income payments after the Annuity Date and to provide a death benefit. The expense risk assumed by the Company is that the costs of administering the contracts and the Separate Account will exceed the amount received from the administrative fees and charges assessed under the contract. If these charges do not cover all of our expenses, we will pay the difference. Likewise, if these charges exceed our expenses, we will keep the difference. The insurance charge is expected to result in a profit. Profit may be used for any legitimate cost/expense including distribution, depending upon market conditions. WITHDRAWAL CHARGES The contract provides a free withdrawal amount every year. (SEE CONTRACT CHARGES, FREE WITHDRAWAL AMOUNT BELOW.) Additionally, earnings in your contract may be withdrawn free of withdrawal charges. If you take money out in excess of the free withdrawal amount, you may incur a withdrawal charge. We apply a withdrawal charge against each Purchase Payment you put into the contract. After a Purchase Payment has been in the contract for seven complete years, no withdrawal charge applies to that Purchase Payment. The withdrawal charge equals a percentage of the Purchase Payment you take out of the contract. The withdrawal charge percentage declines each year a Purchase Payment is in the contract, as follows:
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ YEAR 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ WITHDRAWAL CHARGE 6% 6% 5% 5% 4% 3% 2% 0% ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
When calculating the withdrawal charge, we treat withdrawals as coming first from the Purchase Payments that have been in your contract the longest. However, for tax purposes, your withdrawals are considered earnings first, then Purchase Payments. Whenever possible, we deduct the withdrawal charge from the money remaining in your contract. If you withdraw all of your contract value, applicable withdrawal charges are deducted from the amount withdrawn. We do not assess a withdrawal charge for money withdrawn to pay a death benefit or to begin the Income Phase of your contract. Withdrawals made prior to age 59 1/2 may result in a 10% IRS penalty tax. SEE TAXES BELOW. APPENDIX B provides more information on withdrawals and the withdrawal charge. INVESTMENT CHARGES Charges are deducted from your Variable Portfolios for the advisory and other expenses of the Underlying Funds. THE FEE TABLES ABOVE illustrate these charges and expenses. For more detailed information on these investment charges, refer to the attached prospectuses for the Trusts. CONTRACT MAINTENANCE FEE During the Accumulation Phase, we subtract a contract maintenance fee from your account once per contract year. This charge compensates us for the cost of contract administration. We deduct the $30 contract maintenance fee on a pro-rata basis from your account value on your contract anniversary. If you withdraw your entire contract value, the fee is deducted from that withdrawal. TRANSFER FEE Generally, We currently permit 15 free transfers between investment options each contract year. After that, a charge of $25 applies to each additional transfer in any one contract year ($10 in Pennsylvania and Texas). SEE TRANSFERS DURING THE ACCUMULATION PHASE BELOW. 14 PREMIUM TAX Certain states charge the Company a tax on the premiums you pay into the contract ranging from 0% to 3.5%. We deduct from your contract these premium tax charges where applicable. Currently, we deduct the charge for premium taxes when you take a full withdrawal or begin the Income Phase of the contract. In the future, we may assess this deduction at the time you put Purchase Payment(s) into the contract or upon payment of a death benefit. INCOME TAXES We do not currently deduct income taxes from your contract. We reserve the right to do so in the future. REDUCTION OR ELIMINATION OF CHARGES AND EXPENSES, AND ADDITIONAL AMOUNTS CREDITED Sometimes sales of the contracts to groups of similarly situated individuals may lower our administrative and/or sales expenses. We reserve the right to reduce or waive certain charges and expenses when this type of sale occurs. In addition, we may also credit additional interest to policies sold to such groups. We determine which groups are eligible for such treatment. Some of the criteria used to make a determination are: size of the group; amount of expected Purchase Payments; relationship existing between us and prospective purchaser; nature of the purchase; length of time a group of contracts is expected to remain active; purpose of the purchase and whether that purpose increases the likelihood that our expenses will be reduced; and/or any other factors that we believe indicate that administrative and/or sales expenses may be reduced. We may make such a determination regarding sales to our employees, our affiliates' employees and employees of currently contracted broker-dealers, our registered representatives and immediate family members of all of those described. We reserve the right to change or modify any such determination or the treatment applied to a particular group, at any time. FREE WITHDRAWAL AMOUNT Your contract provides for a free withdrawal amount each year. Purchase Payments that are no longer subject to a withdrawal charge and not previously withdrawn, plus earnings, may be withdrawn without penalty. After the first full contract year, the contract provides for a free withdrawal amount on your first withdrawal of the contract year. The free withdrawal amount is the greater (1) 10% of your total Purchase Payments invested for at least one year and not yet withdrawn; only available for first withdrawal of contract year or (2) earnings in your contract. Total Purchase Payments are equal to your total Purchase Payments invested in the contract less any Purchase Payments withdrawn upon which a surrender charge was paid and the amount of the surrender charge. Additionally, once a Purchase Payment is no longer subject to withdrawal charges, it is no longer included when determining total Purchase Payments. Upon a full surrender of your contract, to the extent you previously withdraw Purchase Payments free of a withdrawal charge under the free withdrawal provision, we will recoup the full withdrawal charge on such amounts, as if that money was still invested in the contract on the date of surrender. We will waive the withdrawal charge upon payment of a death benefit. Where legally permitted, the withdrawal charge may be eliminated when a contract is issued to an officer, director or employee of the Company or its affiliates. NURSING HOME WAIVER If your contract was issued with the appropriate rider and you are confined to a nursing home for 60 days or longer, we may waive the withdrawal charge and/or the MVA on certain withdrawals prior to the Annuity Date (not available in Texas). The waiver applies only to withdrawals made while you 15 are in a nursing home or within 90 days after you leave the nursing home. Your rider prohibits use of this waiver during the first 90 days after purchase. In addition, the confinement period for which you seek the waiver must begin after you purchase your contract. In order to use this waiver, you must submit with your withdrawal request, the following documents: (1) a doctor's note recommending admittance to a nursing home; (2) an admittance form which shows the type of facility you entered; and (3) a bill from the nursing home which shows that you met the 60 day confinement requirement. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- DESCRIPTION OF THE CONTRACTS -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- SUMMARY This contract works in two stages, the Accumulation Phase and the Income Phase. Your contract is in the Accumulation Phase while you make payments into the contract. The Income Phase begins when you request that we begin making payments to you out of the money accumulated in your contract. OWNERSHIP The Vista Capital Advantage Variable Annuity is a Flexible Payment Group Deferred Annuity Contract. AIG SunAmerica Life issues a group contract to a contract holder for the benefit of the participants in the group. As a participant in the group, you will receive a certificate which evidences your ownership. As used in this prospectus, the term contract refers to your certificate. In some states, a Flexible Payment Individual Modified Guaranteed and Variable Deferred Annuity Contract is available instead. Such a contract is identical to the contract described in this prospectus, with the exception that we issue it directly to the owner. ANNUITANT The annuitant is the person on whose life we base income payments. You may change the Annuitant at any time before the Annuity Date. You may also designate a second person on whose life, together with the annuitant, income payments depend. If the annuitant dies before the Annuity Date, you must notify us and select a new annuitant. MODIFICATION OF THE CONTRACT Only the Company's President, a Vice President or Secretary may approve a change or waive a provision of the contract. Any change or waiver must be in writing. We reserve the right to modify the terms of the contract as necessary to comply with changes in applicable law. ASSIGNMENT Contracts issued pursuant to Non-qualified plans that are not subject to Title 1 of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 ("ERISA") may be assigned by the owner at any time during the lifetime of the Annuitant prior to the Annuity Date. We will not be bound by any assignment until written notice is received by us at our Annuity Service Center. We are not responsible for the validity, tax or other legal consequences of any assignment. An assignment will not affect any payments we may make or actions we may take before we receive notice of the assignment. If the contract is issued pursuant to a Qualified plan (or a Non-qualified plan that is subject to Title 1 of ERISA), it may not be assigned, pledged or otherwise transferred except under such conditions as may be allowed under applicable law. BECAUSE AN ASSIGNMENT MAY BE A TAXABLE EVENT, YOU SHOULD CONSULT A COMPETENT TAX ADVISER SHOULD YOU WISH TO ASSIGN YOUR CONTRACT. 16 DEATH BENEFIT If you die during the Accumulation Phase of your contract, we pay a death benefit to your Beneficiary. If you were less than age 70 when your contract was issued, the death benefit is equal to the greater of: 1. the value of your contract at the time we receive satisfactory proof of death; or 2. total Purchase Payments less any withdrawals (and any fees or charges applicable to such withdrawals); or 3. the maximum anniversary value on any contract anniversary preceding your death. The anniversary value equals the value of your contract on a contract anniversary plus any Purchase Payments and less any withdrawals (and any fees or charges applicable to such withdrawals) since that contract anniversary. If you were age 70 or older when your contract was issued, the death benefit will equal the value of your contract at the time we receive satisfactory proof of death. We do not pay the death benefit if you die after you switch to the Income Phase. However, if you die during the Income Phase, your Beneficiary receives any remaining guaranteed income payments in accordance with the income option you selected. (SEE INCOME PHASE, INCOME OPTIONS BELOW.) You name your Beneficiary. You may change the Beneficiary at any time, unless you previously made an irrevocable Beneficiary designation. We pay the death benefit when we receive satisfactory proof of death. We consider the following satisfactory proof of death: 1. a certified copy of the death certificate; or 2. a certified copy of a decree of a court of competent jurisdiction as to the finding of death; or 3. a written statement by a medical doctor who attended the deceased at the time of death; or 4. any other proof satisfactory to us. We may require additional proof before we pay the death benefit. The death benefit must be paid within 5 years of the date of death unless the Beneficiary elects to have it payable in the form of an income option. If the Beneficiary elects an income option, it must be paid over the Beneficiary's lifetime or for a period not extending beyond the Beneficiary's life expectancy. Payments must begin within one year of the date of your death. If a Beneficiary does not elect a specific form of pay out within 60 days of our receipt of proof of death, we pay a lump sum death benefit to the Beneficiary. If the Beneficiary is the spouse of a deceased owner, he or she can elect to continue the contract at the then current value. If the spouse continues the contract, we do not pay a death benefit to him or her. 17 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- PURCHASES, WITHDRAWALS AND CONTRACT VALUE -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- PURCHASE PAYMENTS A Purchase Payment is the money you give us to buy a contract. Any additional money you give us to invest in the contract after purchase is a subsequent Purchase Payment. This chart shows the minimum initial and subsequent Purchase Payments permitted under your contract. These amounts depend upon whether your contract is Qualified or Non-qualified for tax purposes. SEE TAXES BELOW.
-------------------------------------------------------------------- MINIMUM MINIMUM INITIAL SUBSEQUENT PURCHASE PAYMENT PURCHASE PAYMENT -------------------------------------------------------------------- Qualified $2,000 $250 -------------------------------------------------------------------- Non-Qualified $5,000 $250 --------------------------------------------------------------------
Prior Company approval is required to accept Purchase Payments greater than $1,000,000. The Company reserves the right to refuse any Purchase Payment including one which would cause Total Purchase Payments to exceed $1,000,000 at the time of the Purchase Payment. Further, we reserve the right to aggregate all contracts having the same owners' and/or annuitants' social security or federal tax identification number for purposes of determining which contracts and/or purchase payments require Company pre-approval. Also, the optional automatic payment plan allows you to make subsequent Purchase Payments of as little as $100. We may refuse any Purchase Payment. In general, AIG SunAmerica Life will not issue a Qualified contract to anyone who is age 70 1/2 or older, unless it is shown that the minimum distribution required by the IRS is being made. In addition, we may not issue a contract to anyone over age 85. ALLOCATION OF PURCHASE PAYMENTS We invest your Purchase Payments in the fixed and variable investment options according to your instructions. If we receive a Purchase Payment without allocation instructions, we invest the money according to your last allocation instructions. SEE VARIABLE PORTFOLIO OPTIONS, AND FIXED ACCOUNT OPTIONS BELOW. In order to issue your contract, we must receive your completed application, Purchase Payment allocation instructions and any other required paperwork at our principal place of business. We allocate your initial purchase payment within two days of receiving it. If we do not have complete information necessary to issue your contract, we will contact you. If we do not have the information necessary to issue your contract within 5 business days we will: - Send your money back to you, or; - Ask your permission to keep your money until we get the information necessary to issue the contract. ACCUMULATION UNITS When you allocate a Purchase Payment to the Variable Portfolios, we credit your contract with Accumulation Units of the separate account. We base the number of Accumulation Units you receive on the unit value of the Variable Portfolio as of the day we receive your money if we receive it before 1 p.m. Pacific Standard Time, or on the next business day's unit value if we receive your money after 1 p.m. Pacific Standard Time. The value of an Accumulation Unit will go up and down based on the performance of the Variable Portfolios. 18 We calculate the value of an Accumulation Unit each day that the New York Stock Exchange ("NYSE") is open as follows: 1. We determine the total value of money invested in a particular Variable Portfolio; 2. We subtract from that amount all applicable contract charges; and 3. We divide this amount by the number of outstanding Accumulation Units. We determine the number of Accumulation Units credited to your contract by dividing the Purchase Payment by the Accumulation Unit value for the specific Variable Portfolio. EXAMPLE: We receive a $25,000 Purchase Payment from you on Wednesday. You allocate the money to the MFS Total Return Portfolio. The value of an Accumulation Unit for the MFS Total Return Portfolio is $11.10 when the NYSE closes on Wednesday. Your Purchase Payment of $25,000 is then divided by $11.10 and we credit your contract on Wednesday night with 2252.52 Accumulation Units of the MFS Total Return Portfolio. Performance of the Variable Portfolios and the charges and expenses under your contract affect Accumulation Unit values. These factors cause the value of your contract to go up and down. FREE LOOK You may cancel your contract within ten days after receiving it (or longer if required by state law). AIG SunAmerica Life calls this a "free look." To cancel, you must mail the contract along with your free look request to the Annuity Service Center at P.O. Box 54299, Los Angeles, California 90054-0299. We will refund the value of your contract on the day we receive your request. The amount refunded to you may be more or less than the amount you originally invested. Certain states require us to return your Purchase Payments upon a free look request. Additionally, all contracts issued as an IRA require the full return of Purchase Payments upon a free look. TRANSFERS DURING THE ACCUMULATION PHASE Subject to our rules, restrictions and policies, during the Accumulation Phase you may transfer funds between the Variable Portfolios and/or any available fixed account options by telephone or through the Company's website (http://www.aigsunamerica.com) or in writing by mail or facsimile. All transfer instructions submitted via facsimile must be sent to (818) 615-1543, otherwise they will not be considered received by us. We may accept transfers by telephone or the Internet unless you tell us not to on your contract application. When receiving instructions over the telephone or the Internet, we follow procedures we have adopted to provide reasonable assurance that the transactions executed are genuine. Thus, we are not responsible for any claim, loss or expense from any error resulting from instructions received over the telephone or the Internet. If we fail to follow our procedures, we may be liable for any losses due to unauthorized or fraudulent instructions. Any transfer request will be priced as of the day it is received in good order by us if the request is processed before the close of the New York Stock Exchange ("NYSE"), usually at 1:00 p.m. Pacific Time. If the transfer request is processed after the NYSE closes, the request will be priced as of the next business day. Funds already in your contract cannot be transferred into the DCA fixed accounts. You must transfer at least $100 per transfer. If less than $100 remains in any Variable Portfolio after a transfer, that amount must be transferred as well. TRANSFER POLICIES This product is not designed for contract owners engaged in trading strategies that seek to benefit from short-term price fluctuations or price inefficiencies in the Variable Portfolios of this product 19 ("Short-Term Trading"). Such Short-Term Trading may create risks that may result in adverse effects on investment return of an underlying fund. Such risks may include, but are not limited to: (1) interference with the management and planned investment strategies of an underlying fund and/or (2) increased brokerage and administrative costs due to forced and unplanned fund turnover; both of which may dilute the value of the shares in the underlying fund and reduce value for all investors in the Variable Portfolio. In addition to negatively impacting the contract owner, a reduction in contract value may also be harmful to annuitants and/or beneficiaries. We have adopted administrative procedures to discourage Short-Term Trading. We charge for transfers in excess of 15 in any contract year. Currently, the fee is $25 ($10 in Pennsylvania and Texas) for each transfer exceeding this limit. Transfers resulting from your participation in the DCA or Asset Rebalancing programs are not counted towards the number of free transfers per contract year. In addition to charging a fee when you exceed 15 transfers as described in the preceding paragraph, all transfer requests in excess of 15 transfers per contract year must be submitted in writing by United States Postal Service first-class mail ("U.S. Mail") until your next contract anniversary. We will not accept transfer requests sent by any other medium except U.S. Mail until your next contract anniversary. For purposes of determining the number of transfers for the U.S. Mail requirement, contracts subject to certain asset allocation services will be calculated on a calendar year instead of a contract year. Transfer requests required to be submitted by U.S. Mail can only be cancelled by a written request sent by U.S. Mail. Transfers resulting from your participation in the DCA or Asset Rebalancing programs are not included for the purposes of determining the number of transfers for the U.S. Mail requirement. We try to ensure that the U.S. Mail Policy is uniformly and consistently applied to all contract owners. However, as discussed below, our ability to detect and deter Short-Term Trading may be limited. Therefore, Short-Term Trading may occur and the Variable Portfolios may be negatively impacted. In connection with our efforts to deter Short-Term Trading, we may become aware of trading activity that appears detrimental to the Variable Portfolios. If we determine that your transfer patterns among the Variable Portfolios and/or available fixed accounts reflect what we consider to be Short-Term Trading, we may require you to adhere to our U.S. Mail policy described above prior to reaching the specified number of transfers within the defined period for a period that we determine. To the extent we become aware of Short-Term Trading activities which cannot be reasonably controlled by the U.S. Mail Policy, we also reserve the right to impose further limits on the number and frequency of transfers you can make, impose minimum holding periods, pass through to you redemption fees imposed by the underlying funds and/or reject any transfer request or terminate your transfer privileges. We will notify you in writing if your transfer privileges are terminated. In addition, we reserve the right to not accept transfers from a financial representative acting for you and not to accept preauthorized transfer forms. We try to ensure that the restrictions and policies applicable to Short-Term Trading are uniformly and consistently applied to all contract owners. However, as discussed below, our ability to detect and deter Short-Term Trading may be limited. Therefore, Short-Term Trading may occur and the Variable Portfolios may be negatively impacted. Some of the factors we may consider when determining whether to accelerate the U.S. Mail policy, reject or impose other conditions on transfer privileges include: (1) the number of transfers made in a defined period; (2) the dollar amount of the transfer; (3) the total assets of the Variable Portfolio involved in the transfer and/or transfer requests that represent a significant portion of the total assets of the Variable Portfolio; (4) the investment objectives and/or asset classes of the particular Variable Portfolio involved in your transfers; 20 (5) whether the transfer appears to be part of a pattern of transfers to take advantage of short-term market fluctuations or market inefficiencies; and/or (6) other activity, as determined by us, that creates an appearance, real or perceived, of Short-Term Trading. Notwithstanding the administrative procedures above, there may be limitations on the effectiveness of these procedures. Our ability to detect and deter Short-Term Trading may be limited by operational systems and technological limitations. Despite our efforts, we cannot guarantee that we will detect all Short-Term Trading. To the extent that we are unable to detect and deter Short-Term Trading, the Variable Portfolios may be negatively impacted as described above. Additionally, the Variable Portfolios may be harmed by transfer activity related to other insurance companies and/or retirement plans or other investors that invest in shares of the underlying fund. You should be aware that the design of our administrative procedures involves inherently subjective decisions, which we attempt to make in a fair and reasonable manner consistent with the interests of all owners of this contract. We try to ensure that the restrictions and policies applicable to Short-Term Trading are uniformly and consistently applied to all contract owners. However, as discussed above, our ability to detect and deter Short-Term Trading may be limited. Therefore, Short-Term Trading may occur and the Variable Portfolios may be negatively impacted. We do not enter into agreements with contract owners whereby we permit Short-Term Trading in exchange for other investments in our products. As stated above, we try to ensure that the Short-Term Trading restrictions and policies apply uniformly and consistently to all contract owners with the exception of transfers that occur through omnibus group contracts . The Short-Term Trading policies and procedures, which include the U.S. Mail policy are not applied to such contracts. Omnibus group contracts may invest in the same underlying funds available in your contract but on an aggregate, not individual basis. Thus, we have limited ability to detect Short-Term Trading in omnibus group contracts and our inability to detect Short-Term Trading may negatively impact the Variable Portfolios as described above. WE RESERVE THE RIGHT TO MODIFY THE POLICIES AND PROCEDURES DESCRIBED IN THIS SECTION AT ANY TIME. To the extent that we exercise this reservation of rights, we will do so uniformly and consistently unless we disclose otherwise. For information regarding transfers during the Income Phase, see INCOME OPTIONS below. DOLLAR COST AVERAGING PROGRAM The Dollar Cost Averaging ("DCA") program allows you to invest gradually in the Variable Portfolios. Under the program you systematically transfer a set dollar amount or percentage of portfolio value from one Variable Portfolio or DCAFAs (source account) to any other Variable Portfolio (target account). Transfers may occur on certain periodic schedules such as monthly or weekly and do not count against your 15 free transfers per contract year. You may change the frequency to other available options at any time by notifying us in writing. The minimum transfer amount under the DCA program is $100 per transaction, regardless of the source account. Currently, there is no fee for participating in the DCA program. We may offer DCAFAs exclusively to facilitate the DCA program for a specified time period. The DCAFAs only accept new Purchase Payments. You cannot transfer money already in your contract into the DCAFAs. If you allocate new Purchase Payments into a DCAFA, we transfer all your money into the Variable Portfolios over the selected time period. You cannot change the option once selected. You may terminate the DCA program at any time. If money remains in the DCAFAs, we transfer the remaining money according to your instructions or to your current allocation on file. Upon termination of the DCA program, if money remains in the DCA fixed accounts, we transfer the remaining money to the same target account(s) as previously designated, unless we receive different instructions from you. Transfers resulting from a termination of this program do not count towards your 15 free transfers. 21 The DCA program is designed to lessen the impact of market fluctuations on your investment. However, we cannot ensure that you will make a profit. When you elect the DCA program, you are continuously investing in securities regardless of fluctuating price levels. You should consider your tolerance for investing through periods of fluctuating price levels. We reserve the right to modify, suspend or terminate this program at any time. EXAMPLE: Assume that you want to gradually move $750 each quarter from the Cash Management Portfolio to the Marsico Growth Portfolio over six months. You set up dollar cost averaging and purchase Accumulation Units at the following values:
----------------------------------------------------------- ACCUMULATION UNITS MONTH UNIT PURCHASED ----------------------------------------------------------- 1 $ 7.50 100 2 $ 5.00 150 3 $10.00 75 4 $ 7.50 100 5 $ 5.00 150 6 $ 7.50 100 -----------------------------------------------------------
You paid an average price of only $6.67 per Accumulation Unit over six months, while the average market price actually was $7.08. By investing an equal amount of money each month, you automatically buy more Accumulation Units when the market price is low and fewer Accumulation Units when the market price is high. This example is for illustrative purposes only. AUTOMATIC ASSET ALLOCATION REBALANCING PROGRAM Earnings in your contract may cause the percentage of your investment in each investment option to differ from your original allocations. The Automatic Asset Rebalancing Program addresses this situation. At your election, we periodically rebalance your investments to return your allocations to their original percentages. Asset rebalancing typically involves shifting a portion of your money out of an investment option with a higher return into an investment option with a lower return. At your request, rebalancing occurs on a quarterly, semiannual or annual basis. Transfers made as a result of rebalancing do not count against your 15 free transfers for the contract year. We reserve the right to modify, suspend or terminate this program at any time. EXAMPLE: Assume that you want your initial Purchase Payment split between two Variable Portfolios. You want 50% in the Government & Quality Bond Portfolio and 50% in the Marsico Growth Portfolio. Over the next calendar quarter, the Government & Quality Bond Portfolio outperforms the Marsico Growth Portfolio. At the end of the calendar quarter, the Government & Quality Bond Portfolio now represents 60% of your holdings because it has increased in value and the Marsico Growth Portfolio represents 40% of your holdings. If you had chosen quarterly rebalancing, on the last day of that quarter, we would sell some of your units in the Government & Quality Bond Portfolio to bring its holdings back to 50% and use the money to buy more units in the Marsico Growth Portfolio to increase those holdings to 50%. RETURN PLUS PROGRAM The Return Plus Program allows you to invest in one or more Variable Portfolios without putting your principal at direct risk. The program accomplishes this by allocating your investment strategically between the fixed investment options and Variable Portfolios. You decide how much you want to 22 invest and approximately when you want a return of principal. We calculate how much of your Purchase Payment to allocate to the particular fixed account option to ensure that it grows to an amount equal to your total principal invested under this program. The remaining principal is invested in the Variable Portfolio(s) of your choice. We reserve the right to modify, suspend or terminate this program at any time. EXAMPLE: Assume that you want to allocate a portion of your initial Purchase Payment of $100,000 to the fixed investment option. You want the amount allocated to the fixed investment option to grow to $100,000 in 7 years. If the 7-year fixed investment option is offering a 5% interest rate, we will allocate $71,069 to the 7-year fixed investment option to ensure that this amount will grow to $100,000 at the end of the 7-year period. The remaining $28,931 may be allocated among the Variable Portfolios, as determined by you, to provide opportunity for greater growth. WITHDRAWALS You can access money in your contract in two ways: - by making a partial or total withdrawal, and/or; - by receiving income payments during the Income Phase. (SEE INCOME PHASE BELOW.) Generally, we deduct a withdrawal charge applicable to any total or partial withdrawal and a MVA against withdrawals from the 3, 5, 7 or 10 year fixed account options. If you withdraw your entire contract value, a deduction for premium taxes and the contract maintenance fee also occurs. (SEE CONTRACT CHARGES, WITHDRAWAL CHARGE ABOVE.) Under certain Qualified plans, access to the money in your contract may be restricted. Additionally, withdrawals made prior to age 59 1/2 may result in a 10% IRS penalty tax. (SEE TAXES BELOW.) Under most circumstances, the partial withdrawal minimum is $1,000. We require that the value left in any investment option be at least $100 after the withdrawal. You must send a written withdrawal request. Unless you provide different instructions, partial withdrawals will be made pro rata from each Variable Portfolio and the fixed account option in which your contract is invested. We may be required to suspend or postpone the payment of a withdrawal for any period of time when: (1) the NYSE is closed (other than customary weekend and holiday closings); (2) trading with the NYSE is restricted; (3) an emergency exists such that disposal of or determination of the value of shares of the Variable Portfolios is not reasonably practicable; (4) the SEC, by order, so permits for the protection of contract owners. Additionally, we reserve the right to defer payments for a withdrawal from a fixed account option. Such deferrals are limited to no longer than six months. SYSTEMATIC WITHDRAWAL PROGRAM During the Accumulation Phase, you may elect to receive periodic income payments under the systematic withdrawal program. Under the program, you may choose to take monthly, quarterly, semiannual or annual payments from your contract. Electronic transfer of these funds to your bank account is available. The minimum amount of each withdrawal is $250. There must be at least $100 remaining in each Variable Portfolio after a withdrawal from your contract at all times. Withdrawals may be subject to a withdrawal charge, a MVA and taxation, and a 10% IRS penalty tax may apply if you are under age 59 1/2. There is no additional charge for participating in this program. The program is not available to everyone. Please check with our Annuity Service Center, which can provide the necessary enrollment forms. AIG SunAmerica Life reserves the right to modify, suspend or terminate this program at any time. 23 MINIMUM CONTRACT VALUE Where permitted by state law, we may terminate your contract if both of the following occur: (1) your contract is less than $500 as a result of withdrawals; and (2) you have not made any Purchase Payments during the past three years. We will provide you with sixty days written notice. At the end of the notice period, we will distribute the contract value to you. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- INCOME PHASE -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ANNUITY DATE During the Income Phase, we use the money accumulated in your contract to make regular income payments to you. You may switch to the Income Phase any time after your 2nd contract anniversary. You select the month and year in which you want income payments to begin. The first day of that month is the Annuity Date. You may change your Annuity Date, so long as you do so at least seven days before the income payments are scheduled to begin. Once you begin receiving income payments, you cannot change your income option. Except as indicated under Option 5 below, once you begin receiving income payments, you cannot otherwise access your money through a withdrawal or surrender. Income payments must begin on or before your 90th birthday or on your tenth contract anniversary, whichever occurs later. If you do not choose an Annuity Date, your income payments will automatically begin on this date. Certain states may require your income payments to start earlier. If the Annuity Date is past your 85th birthday, your contract could lose its status as an annuity under Federal tax laws. This may cause you to incur adverse tax consequences. In addition, most Qualified contracts require you to take minimum distributions after you reach age 70 1/2. (SEE TAXES BELOW.) INCOME OPTIONS Currently, this contract offers five income options. If you elect to receive income payments but do not select an option, your income payments will be made in accordance with option 4 for a period of 10 years. For income payments based on joint lives, we pay according to option 3. We base our calculation of income payments on the life of the Annuitant and the annuity rates set forth in your contract. As the contract owner, you may change the Annuitant at any time prior to the Annuity Date. You must notify us if the Annuitant dies before the Annuity Date and designate a new Annuitant. OPTION 1 -- LIFE INCOME ANNUITY This option provides income payments for the life of the Annuitant. Income payments stop when the Annuitant dies. OPTION 2 -- JOINT AND SURVIVOR LIFE ANNUITY This option provides income payments for the life of the Annuitant and for the life of another designated person. Upon the death of either person, we will continue to make income payments during the lifetime of the survivor. Income payments stop whenever the survivor dies. 24 OPTION 3 -- JOINT AND SURVIVOR LIFE ANNUITY WITH 10 YEARS GUARANTEED This option is similar to option 2 above, with an additional guarantee of payments for at least 10 years. If the Annuitant and the survivor die before all of the guaranteed income payments have been made, the remaining payments are made to the Beneficiary under your contract. OPTION 4 -- LIFE ANNUITY WITH 10 OR 20 YEARS GUARANTEED This option is similar to option 1 above. In addition, this option provides a guarantee that income payments will be made for at least 10 or 20 years. You select the number of years. If the Annuitant dies before all guaranteed income payments are made, the remaining income payments go to the Beneficiary under your contract. OPTION 5 -- INCOME FOR A SPECIFIED PERIOD This option provides income payments for a guaranteed period ranging from 3 to 30 years. If the Annuitant dies before all of the guaranteed income payments are made, the remaining income payments will be made to the Beneficiary under your contract. Additionally, if variable payments are elected under this option, you (or the Beneficiary under the contract if the Annuitant dies prior to all guaranteed payments being made) may redeem the contract value after the Annuity Date. The amount available upon such redemption would be the discounted present value of any remaining guaranteed payments. Please read the SAI for a more detailed discussion of the income options. You can choose income payments that are fixed, variable or both. If at the date when income payments begin you are invested in the Variable Portfolios only, your income payments will be variable. If your money is only in fixed accounts at that time, your income payments will be fixed in amount. Further, if you are invested in both the fixed and variable investment options when payments begin your payments will be fixed and variable. If income payments are fixed, AIG SunAmerica Life guarantees the amount of each payment. If the income payments are variable, the amount is not guaranteed. We make income payments on a monthly, quarterly, semiannual or annual basis. You instruct us to send you a check or to have the payments directly deposited into your bank account. If state law allows, we distribute annuities with a contract value of $5,000 or less in a lump sum. Also, if the selected income option results in income payments of less than $50 per payment, the frequency of your payments may be decreased, state law allowing. If you are invested in the Variable Portfolios after the Annuity Date your income payments vary depending on four things: - for life options, your age when payments begin, and; - the value of your contract in the Variable Portfolios on the Annuity Date, and; - the 3.5% assumed investment rate used in the annuity table for the contract, and; - the performance of the Variable Portfolios in which you are invested during the time you receive income payments. If you are invested in both the fixed account options and the Variable Portfolios after the Annuity Date, the allocation of funds between the fixed and variable options also impacts the amount of your income payments. TRANSFERS DURING THE INCOME PHASE During the Income Phase, one transfer per month is permitted from the Variable Portfolios to another Variable Portfolio or fixed account option. No other transfers are allowed during the Income Phase. 25 DEFERMENT OF PAYMENTS We may defer making fixed income payments for up to six months, or less if required by law. Interest is credited to you during the deferral period. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- TAXES -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- NOTE: WE PREPARED THE FOLLOWING INFORMATION ON TAXES AS A GENERAL DISCUSSION OF THE SUBJECT. THE BASIC SUMMARY BELOW ADDRESSES BROAD FEDERAL TAXATION MATTERS, AND GENERALLY DOES NOT ADDRESS STATE TAXATION ISSUES OR QUESTIONS. IT IS NOT TAX ADVICE. WE CAUTION YOU TO SEEK COMPETENT TAX ADVICE ABOUT YOUR OWN CIRCUMSTANCES. WE DO NOT GUARANTEE THE TAX STATUS OF YOUR ANNUITY. TAX LAWS CONSTANTLY CHANGE, THEREFORE, WE CANNOT GUARANTEE THAT THE INFORMATION CONTAINED HEREIN IS COMPLETE AND/OR ACCURATE. WE HAVE INCLUDED AN ADDITIONAL DISCUSSION REGARDING TAXES IN THE SAI. ANNUITY CONTRACTS IN GENERAL The Internal Revenue Code ("IRC") provides for special rules regarding the tax treatment of annuity contracts. Generally, taxes on the earnings in your annuity contract are deferred until you take the money out. Qualified retirement investments that satisfy specific tax and ERISA requirements automatically provide tax deferral regardless of whether the underlying contract is an annuity, a trust, or a custodial account. Different rules apply depending on how you take the money out and whether your contract is Qualified or Non-Qualified. If you do not purchase your contract under a pension plan, a specially sponsored employer program or an individual retirement account, your contract is referred to as a Non-Qualified contract. A Non-Qualified contract receives different tax treatment than a Qualified contract. In general, your cost basis in a Non-Qualified contract is equal to the Purchase Payments you put into the contract. You have already been taxed on the cost basis in your contract. If you purchase your contract under a pension plan, a specially sponsored employer program or as an individual retirement account, your contract is referred to as a Qualified contract. Examples of qualified plans are: Individual Retirement Accounts ("IRAs"), Roth IRAs, Tax-Sheltered Annuities (referred to as 403(b) contracts), plans of self-employed individuals (often referred to as H.R. 10 Plans or Keogh Plans) and pension and profit sharing plans, including 401(k) plans. Typically you have not paid any tax on the Purchase Payments used to buy your contract and therefore, you have no cost basis in your contract. However, you normally will have cost basis in a Roth IRA, and you may have cost basis in a traditional IRA or in another Qualified Contract. TAX TREATMENT OF DISTRIBUTIONS -- NON-QUALIFIED CONTRACTS If you make a partial or total withdrawal from a Non-Qualified contract, the IRC treats such a withdrawal as first coming from the earnings and then as coming from your Purchase Payments. Purchase payments made prior to August 14, 1982, however, are an important exception to this general rule, and for tax purposes are treated as being distributed before the earnings on those contributions. If you annuitize your contract, a portion of each income payment will be considered, for tax purposes, to be a return of a portion of your Purchase Payment(s). Any portion of each income payment that is considered a return of your Purchase Payment will not be taxed. Withdrawn earnings are treated as income to you and are taxable. The IRC provides for a 10% penalty tax on any earnings that are withdrawn other than in conjunction with the following circumstances: (1) after reaching age 59 1/2; (2) when paid to your Beneficiary after you die; (3) after you become disabled (as defined in the IRC); (4) when paid in a series of substantially equal installments made for your life or for the joint lives of you and your Beneficiary; (5) under an immediate annuity; or (6) which are attributable to Purchase Payments made prior to August 14, 1982. 26 TAX TREATMENT OF DISTRIBUTIONS -- QUALIFIED CONTRACTS (INCLUDING GOVERNMENTAL 457(B) ELIGIBLE DEFERRED COMPENSATION PLANS) Generally, you have not paid any taxes on the Purchase Payments used to buy a Qualified contract. As a result, with certain limited exceptions, any amount of money you take out as a withdrawal or as income payments is taxable income. In the case of certain Qualified contracts, the IRC further provides for a 10% penalty tax on any taxable withdrawal or income payment paid to you other than in conjunction with the following circumstances: (1) after reaching age 59 1/2; (2) when paid to your Beneficiary after you die; (3) after you become disabled (as defined in the IRC); (4) in a series of substantially equal installments, made for your life or for the joint lives of you and your Beneficiary, that begins after separation from service with the employer sponsoring the plan; (5) to the extent such withdrawals do not exceed limitations set by the IRC for deductible amounts paid during the taxable year for medical care; (6) to fund higher education expenses (as defined in IRC; only from an IRA); (7) to fund certain first-time home purchase expenses (only from an IRA); and, except in the case of an IRA; (8) when you separate from service after attaining age 55; (9) when paid for health insurance if you are unemployed and meet certain requirements; and (10) when paid to an alternate payee pursuant to a qualified domestic relations order. This 10% penalty tax does not apply to withdrawals or income payments from governmental 457(b) eligible deferred compensation plans, except to the extent that such withdrawals or income payments are attributable to a prior rollover to the plan (or earnings thereon) from another plan or arrangement that was subject to the 10% penalty tax. The IRC limits the withdrawal of an employee's voluntary Purchase Payments to a Tax-Sheltered Annuity (TSA). Withdrawals can only be made when an owner: (1) reaches age 59 1/2; (2) severs employment with the employer; (3) dies; (4) becomes disabled (as defined in the IRC); or (5) experiences a hardship (as defined in the IRC). In the case of hardship, the owner can only withdraw Purchase Payments. Additional plan limitations may also apply. Amounts held in a TSA annuity contract as of December 31, 1988 are not subject to these restrictions. Qualifying transfers of amounts from one TSA contract to another TSA contract under section 403(b) or to a custodial account under section 403(b)(7), and qualifying transfers to a state defined benefit plan to purchase service credits, are not considered distributions, and thus are not subject to these withdrawal limitations. If amounts are transferred from a custodial account described in Code section 403(b)(7) to this contract the transferred amount will retain the custodial account withdrawal restrictions. Withdrawals from other Qualified Contracts are often limited by the IRC and by the employer's plan. MINIMUM DISTRIBUTIONS Generally, the IRS requires that you begin taking annual distributions from qualified annuity contracts by April 1 of the calendar year following the later of (1) the calendar year in which you attain age 70 1/2 or (2) the calendar year in which you retire. If you own an IRA, you must begin taking distributions when you attain age 70 1/2, regardless of when you retire. If you own more than one TSA, you may be permitted to take your annual distributions in any combination from your TSAs. A similar rule applies if you own more than one IRA. However, you cannot satisfy this distribution requirement for your TSA contract by taking a distribution from an IRA, and you cannot satisfy the requirement for your IRA by taking a distribution from a TSA. You may be subject to a surrender charge on withdrawals taken to meet minimum distribution requirements, if the withdrawals exceed the contract's maximum penalty free amount. Failure to satisfy the minimum distribution requirements may result in a tax penalty. You should consult your tax advisor for more information. You may elect to have the required minimum distribution amount on your contract calculated and withdrawn each year under the automatic withdrawal option. You may select either monthly, quarterly, semiannual or annual withdrawals for this purpose. This service is provided as a courtesy 27 and we do not guarantee the accuracy of our calculations. Accordingly, we recommend you consult your tax advisor concerning your required minimum distribution. You may terminate your election for automated minimum distribution at any time by sending a written request to our Annuity Service Center. We reserve the right to change or discontinue this service at any time. The IRS issued new regulations, effective January 1, 2003, regarding required minimum distributions from qualified annuity contracts. One of the regulations requires that the annuity contract value used to determine required minimum distributions include the actuarial value of other benefits under the contract, such as optional death benefits. This regulation does not apply to required minimum distributions made under an irrevocable annuity income option. We are currently awaiting further clarification from the IRS on this regulation, including how the value of such benefits is determined. You should discuss the effect of these new regulations with your tax advisor. TAX TREATMENT OF DEATH BENEFITS Any death benefits paid under the contract are taxable to the Beneficiary. The rules governing the taxation of payments from an annuity contract, as discussed above, generally apply whether the death benefits are paid as lump sum or annuity payments. Estate taxes may also apply. Certain enhanced death benefits may be purchased under your contract. Although these types of benefits are used as investment protection and should not give rise to any adverse tax effects, the IRS could take the position that some or all of the charges for these death benefits should be treated as a partial withdrawal from the contract. In such case, the amount of the partial withdrawal may be includible in taxable income and subject to the 10% penalty if the owner is under 59 1/2. If you own a Qualified contract and purchase these enhanced death benefits, the IRS may consider these benefits "incidental death benefits." The IRC imposes limits on the amount of the incidental death benefits allowable for Qualified contracts. If the death benefit(s) selected by you are considered to exceed these limits, the benefit(s) could result in taxable income to the owner of the Qualified contract. Furthermore, the IRC provides that the assets of an IRA (including a Roth IRA) may not be invested in life insurance, but may provide, in the case of death during the Accumulation Phase, for a death benefit payment equal to the greater of Purchase Payments or Contract Value. This Contract offers death benefits, which may exceed the greater of Purchase Payments or Contract Value. If the IRS determines that these benefits are providing life insurance, the contract may not qualify as an IRA (including Roth IRAs). You should consult your tax adviser regarding these features and benefits prior to purchasing a contract. CONTRACTS OWNED BY A TRUST OR CORPORATION A Trust or Corporation ("Non-Natural Owner") that is considering purchasing this contract should consult a tax advisor. Generally, the IRC does not treat a Non-Qualified contract owned by a non-natural owner as an annuity contract for Federal income tax purposes. The non-natural owner pays tax currently on the contract's value in excess of the owner's cost basis. However, this treatment is not applied to a Contract held by a trust or other entity as an agent for a natural person nor to Contracts held by Qualified Plans. See the SAI for a more detailed discussion of the potential adverse tax consequences associated with non-natural ownership of a non-qualified annuity contract. GIFTS, PLEDGES AND/OR ASSIGNMENTS OF A NON-QUALIFIED CONTRACT If you transfer ownership of your Non-Qualified contract to a person other than your spouse (or former spouse incident to divorce) as a gift you will pay federal income tax on the contract's cash value to the extent it exceeds your cost basis. The recipient's cost basis will be increased by the amount on which you will pay federal taxes. In addition, the IRC treats any assignment or pledge (or agreement to assign or pledge) of any portion of a Non-Qualified contract as a withdrawal. See the SAI for a more detailed discussion regarding potential tax consequences of gifting, assigning or pledging a non-qualified contract. 28 The IRC prohibits Qualified annuity contracts including IRAs from being transferred, assigned or pledged as security for a loan. This prohibition, however, generally does not apply to loans under an employer-sponsored plan (including loans from the annuity contract) that satisfy certain requirements, provided that: (a) the plan is not an unfunded deferred compensation plan; and (b) the plan funding vehicle is not an IRA. DIVERSIFICATION AND INVESTOR CONTROL The IRC imposes certain diversification requirements on the underlying investments for a variable annuity. We believe that the management of the Underlying Funds monitors the Funds so as to comply with these requirements. To be treated as a variable annuity for tax purposes, the underlying investments must meet these requirements. The diversification regulations do not provide guidance as to the circumstances under which you, and not the Company, would be considered the owner of the shares of the Variable Portfolios under your Nonqualified Contract, because of the degree of control you exercise over the underlying investments. This diversification requirement is sometimes referred to as "investor control." It is unknown to what extent owners are permitted to select investments, to make transfers among Variable Portfolios or the number and type of Variable Portfolios owners may select from. If any guidance is provided which is considered a new position, then the guidance would generally be applied prospectively. However, if such guidance is considered not to be a new position, it may be applied retroactively. This would mean you, as the owner of the Nonqualified Contract, could be treated as the owner of the underlying Variable Portfolios. Due to the uncertainty in this area, we reserve the right to modify the contract in an attempt to maintain favorable tax treatment. These investor control limitations generally do not apply to Qualified Contracts, which are referred to as "Pension Plan Contracts" for purposes of this rule, although the limitations could be applied to Qualified Contracts in the future. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ADMINISTRATION -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- We are responsible for the administrative servicing of your contract. Please contact our Annuity Service Center at 1-800-445-SUN2, if you have any comment, question or service request. We send out transaction confirmations and quarterly statements. During the accumulation phase, you will receive confirmation of transactions within your contract. Transactions made pursuant to contractual or systematic agreements, such as the annual maintenance fee and dollar cost averaging, may be confirmed quarterly. Purchase payments received through the automatic payment plan or a salary reduction arrangement, may also be confirmed quarterly. For all other transactions, we send confirmations immediately. During the accumulation and income phases, you will receive a statement of your transactions over the past quarter and a summary of your account values. It is your responsibility to review these documents carefully and notify us of any inaccuracies immediately. We investigate all inquiries. To the extent that we believe we made an error, we retroactively adjust your contract, provided you notify us within 30 days of receiving the transaction confirmation or quarterly statement. Any other adjustments we deem warranted are made as of the time we receive notice of the error. DISTRIBUTION OF CONTRACTS Registered representatives of broker-dealers sell the contract. AIG SunAmerica Life pays commissions to these representatives for the sale of the contracts. We do not expect the total commissions to 29 exceed 6.5% of your Purchase Payments. We may also pay a bonus to representatives for contracts which stay active for a particular period of time, in addition to standard commissions. We do not deduct commissions paid to registered representatives directly from your Purchase Payments. From time to time, we may pay or allow additional promotional incentives in the form of cash or other compensation. We reserve the right to offer these additional incentives only to certain broker-dealers that sell or are expected to sell, certain minimum amounts of the contract, or other contracts offered by us. Promotional incentives may change at any time. AIG SunAmerica Capital Services, Inc., Harborside Financial Center, 3200 Plaza 5, Jersey City, NJ 07311-4992, distributes the contracts. AIG SunAmerica Capital Services, an affiliate of AIG SunAmerica Life, is registered as a broker-dealer under the Exchange Act of 1934 and is a member of the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. No underwriting fees are paid in connection with the distribution of the contracts. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- LEGAL PROCEEDINGS -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- AIG SunAmerica Life engages in various kinds of routine litigation. In management's opinion, these matters are not material in relation to the financial position of the Company with the exception of the matters disclosed below. A purported class action captioned NIKITA Mehta, as Trustee of the N.D. Mehta Living Trust vs. AIG SunAmerica Life Assurance Company, Case 04L0199, filed on April 5, 2004 in the Circuit Court, Twentieth Judicial District in St. Clair County, Illinois. The lawsuit alleges certain improprieties in conjunction with alleged market timing activities. The probability of any particular outcome cannot be reasonably estimated at this time. On November 23, 2004, American International Group, Inc. (AIG), the parent company and affiliated person of AIG SunAmerica Life Assurance Company ("Depositor") and AIG SunAmerica Capital Services, Inc. ("Distributor"), consented to the settlement of an injunctive action instituted by the SEC. In its complaint, the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) alleged that AIG violated Section 10(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (Exchange Act) and Rule 10b-5 promulgated thereunder and Section 17(a) of the Securities Act of 1933 (Securities Act) and aided and abetted violations of Sections 13(a) and 13(b)(2)(A) of the Exchange Act and Rules 12b-20, 13a-1, and 13a-13 promulgated thereunder, in connection with certain structured transactions between subsidiaries of The PNC Financial Services Group, Inc. and certain subsidiaries of AIG, and similar transactions marketed by certain subsidiaries of AIG to other publicly traded companies. The conduct described in the complaint did not involve any conduct of AIG or its affiliates related to their investment advisory, depository or distribution activities. Pursuant to a final judgment entered on December 7, 2004, AIG, without admitting or denying the allegations in the complaint (except as to jurisdiction), was ordered to pay approximately $46 million in disgorgement, penalties and prejudgment interest. In addition, the final judgment enjoins AIG from future violation of the above-referenced provisions of the federal securities laws. Absent exemptive relief granted by the SEC, the entry of the injunction would prohibit AIG and, its affiliated persons, from, among other things, serving as an investment advisor or depositor of any registered investment management company or principal underwriter for any registered open-end investment company pursuant to Section 9(a) of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "1940 Act"). Certain affiliated persons of AIG, including the Depositor and Distributor, received a temporary exemptive order from the SEC pursuant to Section 9(c) of the 1940 Act on December 8, 2004 with respect to the entry of the injunction, granting exemptive relief from the provisions of Section 9(a) of the 1940 Act. The temporary order permits AIG and its affiliated persons to serve as investment adviser, subadviser, depositor, principal underwriter or sponsor of the separate accounts through which your variable 30 annuity is funded ("Separate Accounts"). The Depositor and Distributor expect that a permanent exemptive order will be granted, although there is no assurance the SEC will issue the permanent order. Additionally, AIG and AIG Financial Products Corp. (AIG-FP), a subsidiary of AIG, reached a similar settlement with the Fraud Section of the United States Department of Justice (DOJ). The settlement with the DOJ consists of an agreement with respect to AIG and AIG-FP and a complaint and deferred prosecution agreement with AIG-FP PAGIC Equity Holding Corp. (a special purpose entity) that will foreclose future prosecutions, provided that the companies comply with the agreements. As part of the settlement, AIG-FP will pay a penalty of $80 million to the DOJ. The Depositor believes that the disgorgement and penalties are not likely to have a material adverse effect on the Separate Accounts. Nor does the Distributor believe that the disgorgement and penalties will materially affect its ability to perform distribution services relating to the Separate Accounts. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- REGISTRATION STATEMENT -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- A registration statement has been filed with the SEC under the Securities Act of 1933 relating to the contract. This prospectus does not contain all the information in the registration statement as permitted by SEC regulations. The omitted information can be obtained from the SEC's principal office in Washington, D.C., upon payment of a prescribed fee. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The consolidated financial statements of AIG SunAmerica Life Assurance Company at December 31, 2003 and 2002, and for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2003, and financial statements of Variable Annuity Account Two at August 31, 2004 and for each of the two years in the period ended August 31, 2004 are incorporated herein by reference in this prospectus in reliance on the reports of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP, independent registered public accounting firm, given on the authority of said firm as experts in auditing and accounting. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- TABLE OF CONTENTS OF STATEMENT OF ADDITIONAL INFORMATION -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Additional information concerning the operations of the separate account is contained in a Statement of Additional Information ("SAI"), which is available without charge upon written request addressed to us at our Annuity Service Center, P.O.

31 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- APPENDIX A - MARKET VALUE ADJUSTMENT ("MVA") -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The information in this Appendix applies only if you take money out of a FAGP (with a duration longer than 1 year) before the end of the guarantee period. We calculate the MVA by doing a comparison between current rates and the rate being credited to you in the FAGP. For the current rate We use a rate being offered by Us for a guarantee period that is equal to the time remaining in the FAGP from which you seek withdrawal (rounded up to a full number of years). If we are not currently offering a guarantee period for that period of time, We determine an applicable rate by using a formula to arrive at a number based on the interest rates currently offered for the two closest periods available. Where the MVA is negative, We first deduct the adjustment from any money remaining in the FAGP. If there is not enough money in the FAGP to meet the negative deduction, We deduct the remainder from your withdrawal. Where the MVA is positive, We add the adjustment to your withdrawal amount. If a withdrawal charge applies, it is deducted before the MVA calculation. The MVA is assessed on the amount withdrawn less any withdrawal charges. The MVA is computed by multiplying the amount withdrawn, transferred or taken under an income option by the following factor: [(1+I/(1+J+L)]N/12 - 1 where: I is the interest rate you are earning on the money invested in the FAGP; J is the interest rate then currently available for the period of time equal to the number of years remaining in the term you initially agreed to leave your money in the FAGP; N is the number of full months remaining in the term you initially agreed to leave your money in the FAGP; and L is 0.005 (some states require a different value. Please see your contract.) We do not assess an MVA against withdrawals from an FAGP under the following circumstances: - If a withdrawal is made within 30 days after the end of a guarantee period; - If a withdrawal is made to pay contract fees and charges; - To pay a death benefit; and - Upon beginning an income option, if occurring on the Latest Annuity Date. EXAMPLES OF THE MVA The purpose of the examples below is to show how the MVA adjustments are calculated and may not reflect the Guarantee periods available or Surrender Charges applicable under your contract. The examples below assume the following: (1) You made an initial Purchase Payment of $10,000 and allocated it to a FAGP at a rate of 5%; (2) You make a partial withdrawal of $4,000 when 1 1/2 years (18 months) remain in the term you initially agreed to leave your money in the FAGP (N=18); (3) You have not made any other transfers, additional Purchase Payments, or withdrawals; and (4) Your contract was issued in a state where L=0.005. POSITIVE ADJUSTMENT, NO WITHDRAWAL CHARGE APPLIES Assume that on the date of withdrawal, the interest rate in effect for a new Purchase Payments in the 1-year FAGP is 3.5% and the 3-year FAGP is 4.5%. By linear interpolation, the interest rate for A-1 the remaining 2 years (1 1/2 years rounded up to the next full year) in the contract is calculated to be 4%. No withdrawal charge is reflected in this example, assuming that the Purchase Payment withdrawn falls within the free look amount. The MVA factor is = [(1+I/(1+J+0.005)]N/12 - 1 = [(1.05)/(1.04+0.005)](18/12) - 1 = (1.004785)1.5 - 1 = 1.007186 - 1 = + 0.007186 The requested withdrawal amount is multiplied by the MVA factor to determine the MVA: $4,000 X (+0.007186) = +$28.74 $28.74 represents the positive MVA that would be added to the withdrawal. NEGATIVE ADJUSTMENT, NO WITHDRAWAL CHARGE APPLIES Assume that on the date of withdrawal, the interest rate in effect for new Purchase Payments in the 1-year FAGP is 5.5% and the 3-year FAGP is 6.5%. By linear interpolation, the interest rate for the remaining 2 years (1 1/2 years rounded up to the next full year) in the contract is calculated to be 6%. No withdrawal charge is reflected in this example, assuming that the Purchase Payment withdrawn falls with the free withdrawal amount. The MVA factor is = [(1+I)/(1+J+0.005)](N/12) - 1 = [(1.05)/(1.06+0.005)](18/12) - 1 = (0.985915)(1.5) - 1 = 0.978948 - 1 = - 0.021052 The requested withdrawal amount is multiplied by the MVA factor to determine the MVA: $4,000 X (-0.021052) = -$84.21 $84.21 represents the negative MVA that will be deducted from the money remaining in the 3-year FAGP. POSITIVE ADJUSTMENT, WITHDRAWAL CHARGE APPLIES Assume that on the date of withdrawal, the interest rate in effect for new Purchase Payments in the 1-year FAGP is 3.5% and the 3-year FAGP is 4.5%. By linear interpolation, the interest rate for the remaining 2 years (1 1/2 years rounded up to the next full year) in the contract is calculated to be 4%. A withdrawal charge of 6% is reflected in this example, assuming that the Purchase Payment withdrawn exceeds the free withdrawal amount. The MVA factor is = [(1+I)/(I+J+0.005)](N/12) - 1 = [(1.05)/(1.04+0.005)](18/12) - 1 = (1.004785)(1.5) - 1 = 1.007186 - 1 = + 0.007186 The requested withdrawal amount, less the withdrawal charge ($4,000 - 6% = $3,760) is multiplied by the MVA factor to determine the MVA: $3,760 X (+0.007186) = +$27.02 $27.02 represents the positive MVA that would be added to the withdrawal. A-2 NEGATIVE ADJUSTMENT, WITHDRAWAL CHARGE APPLIES Assume that on the date of withdrawal, the interest rate in effect for new Purchase Payments in the 1-year FAGP is 5.5% and the 3-year FAGP is 6.5%. By linear interpolation, the interest rate for the remaining 2 years (1 1/2 years rounded up to the next full year) in the contract is calculated to be 6%. A withdrawal charge of 6% is reflected in this example, assuming that the Purchase Payment withdrawn exceeds the free withdrawal amount. The MVA factor is = [(1+I)/(I+J+0.005)](N/12) - 1 = [(1.05)/(1.06+0.005)](18/12) - 1 = (0.985915)(1.5) - 1 = 0.978948 - 1 = - 0.021052 The requested withdrawal amount, less the withdrawal charge ($4,000 - 6% = $3,760) is multiplied by the MVA factor to determine the MVA: $3,760 X (-0.021052) = -$79.16 $79.16 represents the negative MVA that would be deducted from the withdrawal. A-3 APPENDIX B WITHDRAWALS AND WITHDRAWAL CHARGES PART 1 -- SEPARATE ACCOUNT (THE MVA DOES NOT APPLY TO THE SEPARATE ACCOUNT) These examples assume the following: (1) The initial Purchase Payment was $10,000, allocated solely to one Variable Portfolio; (2) The date of full surrender or partial withdrawal occurs during the 3rd contribution year; (3) The contract value at the time of surrender or withdrawal is $12,000; and (4) No other Purchase Payments or previous partial withdrawals have been made. EXAMPLE A -- FULL SURRENDER: (1) Earnings in the Variable Portfolio ($12,000 - $10,000 = $2,000) are not subject to the withdrawal charge. (2) The balance of the full surrender ($12,000 - $2,000 = $10,000) is subject to a 5% withdrawal charge applicable during the 3rd contribution year. (3) The amount of the withdrawal charge is .05 X $10,000 = $500. (4) The contract administration charge is deducted from the full surrender amount. The amount of the full surrender is $12,000 - $500 - $30 = $11,470. EXAMPLE B -- PARTIAL WITHDRAWAL (IN THE AMOUNT OF $3,000): (1) For the same reasons as given in Steps 1 and 2 of Example A, above, $2,000 can be withdrawn free of the withdrawal charge. (2) Although 10% of the Purchase Payment is available without imposition of a withdrawal charge (.10 X $10,000 = $1,000), this free withdrawal amount is, like the withdrawal charge, applied first to earnings. Since the earnings exceed the free withdrawal amount, only the earnings can be withdrawn free of the scheduled withdrawal charge. (3) The balance of the requested partial withdrawal ($3,000 - $2,000 = $1,000) is subject to the withdrawal charge applicable during the 3rd contribution year (5%). (4) The amount of the withdrawal charge is equal to the amount required to complete the partial withdrawal ($3,000 - $2,000 = $1,000) divided by (1 - .05) = 0.95, less the amount required to complete the partial withdrawal. withdrawal charge = ($1,000/0.95) - $1,000 = $52.63 In this example, in order for the owner to receive the amount requested ($3,000), a gross withdrawal of $3,052.63 must be processed with $52.63 representing the withdrawal charge calculated above. Examples C and D assume the following: (1) The initial Purchase Payment was $20,000, allocated solely to one Variable Portfolio; (2) The full surrender or partial withdrawal occurs during the 3rd contribution year; B-1 (3) The owner's contract value at the time of surrender or withdrawal is $21,500; and (4) No other Purchase Payments or partial withdrawals have been made. EXAMPLE C -- PARTIAL WITHDRAWAL (IN THE MAXIMUM AMOUNT AVAILABLE WITHOUT WITHDRAWAL CHARGE): (1) Earnings in the Variable Portfolio ($21,500 - $20,000 = $1,500) are not subject to the withdrawal charge. (2) An additional free withdrawal of 10% of the Purchase Payments less earnings (.10 X $20,000 - $1,500 = $500) is also available free of the withdrawal charge, so that (3) The maximum partial withdrawal without withdrawal charge is the sum of the earnings and the additional free withdrawal ($1,500 + $500 = $2,000). EXAMPLE D -- FULL SURRENDER IMMEDIATELY FOLLOWING THE PARTIAL WITHDRAWAL IN EXAMPLE C: (1) The owner's contract value after the partial withdrawal in Example C is $21,500 - $2,000 = $19,500. (2) The Purchase Payment amount for calculating the withdrawal charge is the original $20,000 (additional free withdrawal amounts do not reduce the Purchase Payment amount for purposes of calculating the withdrawal charge). (3) The amount of the withdrawal charge is .05 X $20,000 = $1,000. (4) The contract administration charge is deducted from the full surrender amount. The amount of the full surrender is $19,500 - $1,000 - $30 = $18,470.
