(each a “Series”)

Supplement to the Series’ Summary and Statutory Prospectuses and
Statements of Additional Information each dated May 1, 2023, as amended

At the Special Shareholder Meeting held on March 25, 2024, Series shareholders approved an Agreement and Plan of Reorganization (the “Agreement”) between each Series (listed as an “Acquired Series” in the table below) and the corresponding Delaware Fund shown in the table below (an “Acquiring Series”) that provides for the reorganization of each Acquired Series with and into its corresponding Acquiring Series as shown in the table below (each, a “Reorganization” and together, the “Reorganizations”):

Acquired Series/Classes

Delaware VIP International Series, a series of Delaware VIP Trust

Standard Class

Service Class
Class II

The Agreement provides for: (a) the acquisition of all of the assets and assumption of all of the liabilities of each Acquired Series by the corresponding Acquiring Series in exchange for shares of the Acquiring Series; (b) the distribution of such shares to the shareholders of the Acquired Series; and (c) the liquidation and termination of the Acquired Series.

The Reorganizations will take place at the close of business on or about April 26, 2024 (Reorganization Date). The Reorganization Date may also be delayed or occur sooner if unforeseen or unusual circumstances arise or if otherwise determined by an officer of the applicable Acquired Series and Acquiring Series to be necessary or appropriate.

Effective one day before the Reorganization Date, the Acquired Series will close to new investors and existing shareholders.

Prior to the closing of each Reorganization, each Acquired Series will distribute to its shareholders, in one or more distributions, all of its income and gains (net of available capital loss carryovers) not previously distributed for taxable years ending on or prior to the Reorganization Date. However, since shares of an Acquired Series must be purchased through separate accounts used to fund variable contracts, it is anticipated that any income dividends or capital gains distributed by the Acquired Series will be exempt from current taxation by shareholders if left to accumulate within such separate account.

Because everyone’s tax situation is unique, you should consult your tax professional about federal, state, local, or foreign tax consequences before making an investment in a Series or acting on a distribution check.
