Supplement dated August 1, 2018 to the current variable life prospectuses
This Supplement updates certain information in the most recent prospectus and statement of additional information you received and in any supplements to that prospectus and statement of additional information (collectively, the ‘‘Prospectus’’). You should read this Supplement in conjunction with the Prospectus and retain it for future reference. Unless otherwise indicated, all other information included in the Prospectus remains unchanged and the Prospectus is hereby incorporated by reference. The terms and section headings we use in this Supplement have the same meaning as in the Prospectus. We will send you another copy of any prospectus or supplement without charge upon request. Please contact the operations center referenced in the Prospectus.
The Portfolios discussed below may not be available in all policies. Please refer to your Prospectus for the current variable investment options and corresponding underlying Portfolios available to you.
The purpose of this Supplement is to provide you with information regarding certain Portfolio substitutions. As is applicable to your policy, please note the following:
| (1) | Substitution of Underlying Portfolio Shares |
On or about October 22, 2018, subject to regulatory approval, shares of the Replacement Portfolios listed in the table below will be substituted for shares of the corresponding Removed Portfolios listed opposite their names at relative net asset value. Each of the Removed Portfolios currently serves as an underlying Portfolio for a variable investment option. At the time of the substitution, each impacted variable investment option will change its name to correspond to the Replacement Portfolio name. We will automatically direct any premium payments, allocation elections, rebalancing or other transaction made using the old variable investment option name to the applicable new variable investment option name. You may continue to transfer your policy account value among the investment options prior to the substitution, as usual, including choosing to transfer your policy account value in an impacted variable investment option to other investment options under your policy. You will not bear any of the expenses related to the substitutions, and the substitution will have no tax consequences for you. Please contact the operations center referenced in your Prospectus for more information about your variable investment options and for information on how to transfer your policy account value.
